Plot Summary: After Gravion was able to use its ultimate attack, the Zeravire threat seemed to have temporary stopped. However when it rises back up all of a sudden, the Earth Gult and its trump card, the super robot Gravion, is needed to defend this world again. All this while, the EFA is planning to create their own weapons to counter the Zeravire, the Grand Trooper. Now as they attempt to fend off the Zeravire, the people of the Earth Gult and EFA must protect their future as well as confront their pasts, and unveil the mysteries of the Zeravire.

This is the following anime to the Original Gravion which I thought was pretty good, but this follow up in my opinion was better then the original. The story line got a little bit more serious and some questions were being answered. And they developed the new G-Soldiers based on some of the technology of Gravion for the Earth Forces, but it is still not even close to Gravion. The Gravion team were getting hit hard, and they lost a team member so Toga was having a hard time handling that. Eiji isnt completely the certain part of the story this time, but there is more chunk to the story then it was before. And it was great that a lot of the questions were being answered and a lot of the secrets were being revealed. There was the right amount of humor, with some fanfare service, but it was still entertaining. Again if you like Mecha anime with a fun twist then this will be satisfying.

I have to say that I am a happy camper with this piece of exquisite engineering. I had high expectation for this exhaust system since it came from one of the premiere aftermarket exhaust system manufacturer.

Positives:

• Fit perfectly out of the box
• Extremely lighter then the original exhaust system
• Great build quality
• Perfect Deep Exhaust tone, thats why I keep reving and down shifting.
• High quality carbon fiber which matchs the bike
• Heat despertion is fantastic, it runs cool compared to the old chrome can.
• More torque then before, more horsepower at the top as well.
• You can feel it breath better.

Negatives:

• None that I can think of.

Price: 600KD (Shipped from UK)

This the best upgrade I have done on this bike, since it looks better, sounds better, and performs better. It covered evey form of improvment for my bike. I cant be happier with this purchase.

This is one movie that I had high expectations for and it exceeded them. A great combination of actors with a great director. The lines are blurred with all the action taking place with a fantastic story line. I have to say that Im not a fan of Leonardo DiCaprio, I tend to avoid his movies because he annoys me, but after seeing this movie I have to say that he has great acting skills and the star of this movie is Jack Nicholson. Matt Damon did an amazing job with his part, and opposite him was Mark Wahlberg. You have to watch this movie if you havent seen it, its one of those great movies with blow after blow after blow. It isnt all action its about mind games, deception, unseen ties, and remembering everything that takes place. You have patches of information and this movie makes you think to patch everything together. It might be three hours long, but it was the fastest three hours I have ever felt. I cant recommend this movie enough! I loved Jack Nicholson in this movie!

This screen has been on my list of wants for a while since I watch a lot of stuff on my PC. My cousin got this as gift for his Bday from his brother so on friday we put this together, reorganized all the PC wires and got rid of all the unneeded wiring. When we powered it up it look nice, and we wanted to see how it look with games some episodes. I have to say that all the reviews were correct in that this screen is amazing, and crisp. We started up World of Warcraft and we were mezmorized by the crisp graphics, amazing tones, the natural hues all of it just fantastic. As long as you have a high end graphics card its well worth getting this screen. We started watching the apprentice to see how good it is, and it was so good that we forgot we were watching it just for testing reasons. I forgot we were watching it on a PC! I think it was around 270KD, and it was ordered from the a store in Hawally who got it from the states.

Update: The price delivered is 300KD, that is what you get in Hawally. I just checked.

Postives:

• Clear pictures
• Crisp graphics
• Fast refresh rate
• Built-in 9-in-1Card Reader
• Two extra USB Connections
• Mutiple types of connections (DVI, VGA, Composite, and S-Video )
• Very nice design
• Very flexible direction, height, and tilt adjustment
• Cheaper then an Apple 23inch Screen (I had to throw that in)

Negatives:

• Price (But that will always be an issue unless its free)

This screen needs to be seen to be believed. And for those complaining about the quality of the Apple, they use the same exact tube.

I thought this was going to be a Bowling for Columbine type movie, but I was little bit off with this. Nick Naylor is the spokesmen for Big Tobacco, and he puts the best spins on the worst facts. This is one movie which I didnt expect to be this good, and the satire in it is just perfect. You keep following Nick and seeing how he wins argument after argument. And it isnt that he likes smoking, but its more about doing his job. And he teaches his son his philisophy of being able to question things and putting a spin on what people says. The man gets intangled with lots of things, and he is doing what he does best. I really liked this movie and think everyone should see this movie.

I thought this would be one funny movie because I like the Wayans brothers so much. I even thought White Chicks was pretty good, but this movie failed my expectations greatly I really didnt think that it would be that bad. Its rare that I think a movie is this bad that I really wish I didnt see it. It had its funny moments and thats why I gave it a 1 out of 5 but other then that it was hard to sit through. Its rare that I dont sit through a movie, but this one was so bad that I couldnt keep on watching it. If you havent seen this movie then spare yourself the pain and dont watch it.

Plot Summary: In the future, life between the digital and physical world has been blurred. The boundary of technology and humanity has been stretched beyond imagination with lives being led in both the electronic and physical worlds. With the melding of man and machine – a new cybernetic level of existence is being created – An existence that continues to redefine mankind.

This series came out years after the huge success of the movie, and it was a nice surprise. Kusonagi is the team leader of section 9 who battle these cyber criminals but with a blurred line on reality. Batou is the strong arm of section 9 and the closest to Kusonagi. With all these crimes, its not all what it seems. I have to say that it isnt always the case that an anime series would even come close to quality of the its successful predecessor. In my opinion this series’s animation, storyline, and character development was even better then that of the original movie. What was great about the anime is that it kept you guessing, you really dont know what is going to happen next, something always pops up around the corner. The story gets deeper and deeper, and the complex plot only makes it better. The action in the anime is amazing, and it shows how society could be when reality can be fused with cyber space and how things turn out. I think this anime is with the best of them, and cant recommend it enough.

Plot Summary: In a post-apocalyptic Earth, the water has become entirely toxic, except for some kept safe in a reservoir. A fortified zone has been created by a man named Sanga, he calls it The Lastland. A group of villagers have discovered safe water, and Sanga wants it. He and his band of killers go to kill everyone and steal it. As they do a mysterious man apperes out of nowhere, instantly killing some of Sanga’s men. His name is Kenshiro, and he can beat any man with his martial art, Hokuto Shin Ken. Sanga will do anything for the water, and Kenshiro will do anything to try and stop him.

I had high hopes for this anime, because it was one the best story lines that I saw in my early days of anime in the early 90s. Fist of the North Star was around when anime was picking up in popularity. It was bloody, raw, and hardcore. It was a legend. So I had high expectations for this three DVD series. It was a 50 minute episode per DVD. The animation was great, they did a combination of drawing and cgi to depect the wasteland and the enviroment. I have to say that this didnt satisfy my expectation for this anime, it had a lot to live up to. I expected a better story line, even though it was just as bloody, and just as much chaos. But I was expecting something on a higher level then what I saw. If your a huge fan of the Fist of the North Star, then watch this anime, but other then that I would pass on it. It wasnt a bad anime at all, but it just didnt do the original Justice!

Plot Summary: In the desert wasteland of a devastated Yokohama, lawless superhumans known as Alter Users terrorize the land. The remaining champions of morality and order have formed a special task force called HOLY, mandated to bring these mutants to justice. However, HOLY may be as terrifying as the mutants it vows to destroy. Kazuma, a lone and powerful Alter User stands up to HOLY as an advocate for the defenseless in a land polarized by power.

This is an anime which starts off with the usual story of people who are different with super powers. This starts with Kazuma who lives in the lawless desert, which is littered with Alter Users. He is one of the few Alter users who does good for people, and these Alter Users sprung up after the devastation to the area, they seem to be an after affect of the damage dont the area. Kazume is taking care of a little girl, and his friends when the HOLY group starts putting down all the Alter users that they come in contact with. HOLY is made up of a bunch of Alter users who are employed by humans from the other land which is considered the “better” world. Kazuma is ill-tempered and acts with his heart and brute strength alone, no matter how many times he gets beat down he gets back up to take some more, and fight more. This is an entertaining anime in the beginning but the storyline wasnt as good as I thought it was going to be. It was entertaining, but not enough depth to the story to stretch it for the length it was stretched. The ending was just stretched out instead having a fast strong ending. I liked it, but not something I would really recommend that much, there is better out there.

These Logitech Z2300 are the best 2.1 Speakers I have ever used or seen! I used to have Harmon Kardon speakers back 2001, and then the speakers blew out 2 years later. So I wasnt too impressed with their PC Speakers, but I have to say that these speakers are nothing short of perfect. I have had mine for two years now with extensive use for movies, tv episodes, all types of games, audio editing, full audio blast (for entertainment purposes), and connected to two PCs through a KVM.

Positives:

• Crystal Clear
• Very configurable
• Low and High tones with no Hiss
• External volume controller which can be switched off directly
• Solid Build
• Nice Design
• Very powerful Subwoofer
• Price very reasonable

Negatives

• Subwoofer is pretty large, but if the size of the subwoofer is an issue then I recommend the Z-10 because its even better but without the sub, and the bass in those speakers are really good. But I tend to like a room to shake when the an explosion occurs in a movie, anime, and tv episodes.
