Keys The Superwoman

Advantages: Lots of diversity
Disadvantages: A couple of weaker tracks

In 2007 the bluesy R&B singer Alicia Keys released her third album ?As I Am?, once again showing how unconventional methods can be input into the R&B world and still come up with great successes by combing her classical training with the mainstream sounds. 1. ?As I Am? (Intro) 2. ?Go Ahead? To get things underway, you have a track which has her combining quite a few of her various musical influences as you here clear indications of how the Jazz and Blues sides of her have come into play to get her through this song. The production is fly and engaging to bring you into the album and get you ready for what is to come. **Four Stars** 3. ?Superwoman? This was one of the significant t tunes to come off the album and it sees her doing a kind of track which we would recognise from her earlier works, especially from her debut cut, as in ...

Review of As I Am - Alicia Keys

My Florence experience

Advantages: Must-go Italian city
Disadvantages: No

In my last trip to Italy, I stayed in Florence for one and a half day. Let me share with you my fantastic experience of Florence. Florence is the cultural capital in the medieval time, and the key player in the Renaissance movement. A small city it seems, but the home of some of the most famous people in history-Michaelanglo, Leonardo da Vinci, Galileo etc, just to name a few.

Obviously, I didn't leave without getting some goods myself. After that, we had a walking tour with a local guide. Best known of all Florence's treasures is the Ponte Vecchio.

Review of Florence (Italy)

* More security - less keys! . .

Advantages: Just the one key.
Disadvantages: Not really.

This type of "Keyed alike" padlock is very useful, especially where you need two or three locks, having just the one key makes life that bit easier. Just remember that the inside of the padlock is steel, so it requires oil now and then - The size of keys may be important to you, these are a lot smaller than those provided with conventional locks, also they are very cheap nowadays - They do provide a visible deterrent, especially if they are a good sized chunk of shiny metal. I fitted a row of three of these on the in-laws shed, these particular locks were made by Legge, although there are hundreds of different manufacturers.The shed looks like Fort Knox, it looks very secure indeed, although in reality, all the locks are fixed to the same piece of flimsy wood. Being practical, it is an easy job to undo all three locks ...
