Advantages: An interesting read Disadvantages: A little bit gory in places
The Bone Vault written by Linda Fairstein is the latest book that I have just read. I have not read any of this Author's previous works although I was aware that the predecessor to this novel, the Deadhouse, was an International best seller.
This book fits neatly into the category of crime fiction but the authenticity of how Met Assistant DA Alexandra Cooper handles the crimes in this gripping story is what sets this book apart from many books on a similar theme that I have read. This may have something to do with the fact that the Author of this work, Linda Fairstein is America's foremost prosecutor of crimes, specialising in the area of sexual assault and domestic violence. Linda Fairstein has run the Sex Crimes Unit of the District Attorney's Office in Manhattan for more than 20 years, and it is without a doubt that in this book ...
Advantages: A respected MP3 player with a touch screen, mail, weather, stocks, etc. Disadvantages: Slow Internet applications, DRM restricted music, no Linux compatibility.
I've found my iPod touch a brilliant device, very versatile and useful. The iPod touch has a brilliant battery life, with up to 20 hours of music playing and around 3½ hours of video, truly making it a device which you can carry around as basically a PDA.
With the very reasonably priced January Software Update, the Notes, Stocks, Weather and Mail applications are added to the application list. Notes allows you to keep short text-based messages on your iPod touch.
Stocks allows you to keep an eye on any company's stock markets, very useful if you've invested in a few company and need to keep up to date on the market very quickly.
The Weather application allows you to keep an eye out on the weather for multiple towns at once. You simply type in the name of the town and it gives you a list of towns with that name. Select ...
Advantages: Great range of seeds Disadvantages: None
Thompson and Morgan's catalogue (online and print) is interesting and filled with wonderful seeds you can grow. My wife is not keen on buying plants that have already been started. "Where is the fun in that?" she muses. "Don't people know the true joy of growing from seed?"
It has to be said that she has a good point and that the Thompson and Morgan website certainly helps her to fulfil her ambition of not buying ready started plants, buy providing a truly magnificent range of seeds that you can plant and thus grow yourself, from scratch.
The web site is easy to navigate and has simple, easy to read and easy to understand instructions for even the Internet virgin.
There's a cheery introduction by Michael Perry, the specialist project manager, which contains a promise that if you are not satisfied, then Thompson and Morgan will ...

Album Notes
Only Linda Thompson's third solo album in 25 years since splitting with her former husband and musical partner Richard Thompson, VERSATILE HEART picks up almost exactly where 2002's FASHIONABLY LATE left off. Like its predecessor, VERSATILE HEART showcases the talents of Richard and Linda's son, singer-songwriter Teddy Thompson, who co-wrote and co-produced several songs, including the simple folky instrumental, "Stay Bright," that both opens and closes the album. Other guests include daughter Kamila Thompson (who contributes the slinky "Nice Cars"), Antony of Antony and the Johnsons (Thompson's duet partner on a magical rendition of Rufus Wainwright's "Beauty"), and violinist Eliza Carthy. Highlights include a moving cover of Tom Waits's "The Day After Tomorrow," the sly rockabilly tune "Do Your Best For Rock and Roll," and a lovely take on the traditional ballad "Katy Cruel."
Album Reviews
Rolling Stone (p.90) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Here she's finally acrid again....She was always a slow-one specialist, and it's a relief to hear she's not longer quite so calm about it." Spin (p.138) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[H]er voice has never sounded better than on the sprightly title track and the instantly classic weeper 'Beauty'..." Entertainment Weekly (p.71) - "Thompson's clarion voice graces songs from a variety of genres..." -- Grade: A- No Depression (p.94) - "Her songs are well-crafted, but they're also revealing and unvarnished...."
