Advantages: Beautiful places to visit Disadvantages: None
High Force and also Low Force Waterfalls are places I have visited many times over the years.
Situated in Middleton-in-Teesdale, not far from both Raby or Barnard Castle, the waterfalls are a great place to visit for a day out, or as part of a drive through the stunning countryside in the area.
High Force is without a doubt one of the most impressive waterfalls in England. The River Tees has been plunging into this gorge for thousands of years, but the rocks it reveals are even older, and date back over 300 million years!
You will find High Force located along the B6277, 4 miles from Middleton-in -Teesdale. It is well signposted, just follow the brown tourist signs.
You will come to a car park where you will be charged £2.00 to park your car. You then take the woodland walk, which will take you to the waterfall.

Advantages: Force Feedback, Intelligent Design, Excellent Software Disadvantages: No Left-Handed Facilities, Bulky Plug
The Logitech Force 3D Pro Joystick was a great buy for me. It's very sleek and stylish and the perfect size for my desk (at about 8"x8"). The grip is specifically desinged for right-handed people which wasn't a problem for me but is something to bear in mind.
It automatically finds games on the computer and assigns keys appropriately which is a very good feature. The accompanying profiling software is easy to use which meant older games could still be easily programmed. there were also many useful tuning options in the control panel so you can adjust the stick to you exact style of gameplay. It performed very well when used with Microsoft Flight Simulator X and enhanced my general gaming experience.
The only really unfortunate thing about this product is the power plug which contains the transformer (and is therefore quick bulky ...
Advantages: The rise of neo-classical metal, great guitar playing, fine vocal performances Disadvantages: Production values ain't great, inaccessible for some
*A review of Rising Force by Yngwie J. Malmsteen, which was intended as a quick review but I was forced to post as standard?*
'Rising Force', is seen as being responsible for the rise of Neo-Classical Metal; in Yngwie J. Malmsteen's debut solo album, he shows super speed and skill in his guitar playing, and with the distinctive Strat tone comes his wide violin-like vibrato. But it?s not entirely electric ? the album is enriched by acoustic guitars which ?Rising Force? begins and ends on.
Edited highlights:
1. Black Star ? the opener is my favourite track off the album, I love the neighing guitar licks which kick in after the acoustic-into-electric buildup.
2. Far Beyond The Sun - the guitar and keyboard solo interchanges.
5. Icarus' Dream Suite Op. 4 - the medievil acoustic figure for the final section.
6. As Above, So Below ...
