Bloomin Dragon's Den.
I'll tell you what. I don't share the population's admiration of the "Dragons". I hadn't heard of a single one of them before that programme started and I read the business press and everything. They have gained all of their profile through the programme rather than business. Most of the products "pitched" on the programme are only sucessful because they have received prime time publicity.
It demonstrates the power of the media; in Britain anything will succeed if it is given enough exposure. Exhibit A, your honour, Jade Goody. But the BBC is funded by taxpayers. It is not supposed to advertise anything. Pensioners have to save up to pay for this stuff (OK I don't know how much, I pay by DD. I guess a licence is £130 is it?). They should not have to contribute to the promotion of these turds.
I love the BBC, but it will be lost if no one protects its integrity; this programme is hosted by a presenter of the flagship Today programme, for goodness sake.
No one agrees with me, of course, everyone seems to worship Duncan Bananatime and Theo Pahfaeces. They will all be given knighthoods next for services to capitalism and cucumber caps.
The bit that really irks me is that none of theses so called entrepreneurs produces anything. They have all amassed their fortunes in "service industry." If they are shown a half-decent product they ask why it isn't being manufactured in the Far East by cheap staff. They should be hate figures not heroes.
And don't get me started on Reggae Reggae sauce
I'd interviewed Simon Woodruffe, who was a Dragon in the very first series, but since then they've been a bunch of unknowns to me.
Have you tried Reggae Reggae Sauce? Don't knock it until you've tried it - it really is good.
The guy could sell more than he could make in his kitchen in Brixton, and I heard that he sold over 2 million bottles in the last year. I know it seems to be everywhere, but perhaps that's because people really like it.
I wanted to delete this comment. It is quite clearly from either a PR company, a relative of Levi Reggae Reggae himself or that lanky "dragon" with crap socks who dyes his hair.
It's plainly being made in some souless industrial kitchen for the cheapest price per unit and has squeezed some other product off the shelf which didn't have the benefit of free advertising at the taxpayer's expense.
Nice article found your site searching in bing I think you could have taken a more neutral view.
When painting a full-screen quad, it might be useful to mask off some buffers so that only specified buffers are touched. For example, you might mask off the color buffer and set the depth function to GL_ALWAYS, so only the depth buffer is painted. Also, you can set masks to allow the stencil buffer to be set or any combination of buffers. ATV Parts.
Why does the helicopter lean to the left on take-off? This is due to the normal gyroscopic effect of the blade rotation. With practice you will soon learn to compensate for this.
