Advantages: powerful, aggressive, original, talented, Disadvantages: a couple of tracks not quite at the same high standard
...The fourth album by Alexisonfire 'OldCrows / Young Cardinals' has everything you'd expect from this band and a bit more. Powerful guitar riffs, emotionally driven screams and the soothing voice of Dallas Green are all a prominent feature.
Perhaps those who discovered Alexisonfire with their last album 'Crisis' (2006) will be disappointed as OldCrows does not the same appeal to the wider commercial audience. However, the album will please many hardcore fans with an attempt to return to the band's roots and will change minds of those believing Alexisonfire want to write pop-rock songs.
The first track, 'OldCrows', introduces the new album claiming 'We are not the kids we used to be' in true Alexisonfire high tempo, aggressive style. The band display their fantastic ability to mix Dallas' soft vocals with the screams of George...

Advantages: Find out how good our modern hospitals are! Disadvantages: Not for the disabled
...Before you visit here - why not walk through Guy's Hospital which is on the same road on the opposite side (St. Thomas Street). Walk through the dingy corridors and the minor injuries unit - it's a great hospital but the peeling paint doesn't exactly inspire confidence. Then walk down to the Old Operating Theatre and walk up those steep steps and step back in time to the early days of medicine. The days of no anaesthetic, just a bottle of whisky. Where the blood splattered operating theatre would have straw put down on it for the next patient. Hygiene wasn't even known about. Then you think how great modern medicine is and how much we have achieved in the past 2 centuries.
You can stand in the Operating theatre - and you can imagine what it would be like to look on at a man's leg being amputated. There are loads of observers in...

Advantages: Very effective for dry skin and chapped lips Disadvantages: Initial cost and strange smell
...to use it under the lip stick as a salve and then on top of the lipstick as a gloss!
I've also used it on chapped hands, dry patches of skin on my arms and legs and it was also very soothing when I applied it to sunburn on my shoulders.
Another friend uses it as a face cream on long flights - I find it too greasy for that and prefer to apply it more sparingly to any dry patches that occur or any flakiness. However I do use it a lot as an "industrial strength" hand cream and have recently started massaging it into my finger nails - there has been no dramatic improvement in my nails but my cuticles are softer and less prone to cracking.
There's a rumour that the Swiss Army uses the cream on manoeuvres! I don't know how much accuracy there is in that rumour but it comes in very useful when trying to apply it to a six year old boy...
