PRO: Beauty. Durability. Uniqueness.

CON: Natural stone absorbs water and can be stained by salt, dirt, or pet waste that lands on it. DIY cutting of natural stone is an iffy proposition and can lead to higher cost due to damaged materials.

Though the CLK may not carve up the turns,it does a decent job, but I felt it excelled in driving comfort over NJ **** roads. I do a lot of highway driving and prefer comfort plus I get up to 27mpg going nicley above 65mph.

SOURCE: Pros and Cons

Sansa e200 is increasingly not supported by the manufacturer, it may require you to manually switch between USB modes, and generally has a lot of problems. I can't think of any pros, actually.

The iPod has great support from the manufacturer and rarely has a problem that can't be solved. It is hard to use an iPod on Windows Media Player, but definitely not impossible. The probelm arises when you try to sync with Windows Media Player AND use iTunes.

I would definitely go with the iPod. Sansa sucks.

SOURCE: Pool and Spa Heaters pros and cons

Firstly, the water volume in a pool is huge, so heating them need big amount of energy: fuels or electric, which is up to the kind of water heaters the pool owner use. Secondly, the water temperature requirement is not high:less than 30 C degree will be OK. In other words, the terminal temperature of heat pumps (if used for pools) will not be too high. These two reasons bring the application of heat pumps for swimming pools. In fact, you will say "what an ideal product designed for pools" when you know the performance of this kind of products. The COP of swimming pool heat pumps reaches 5, which means 1 electric can bring 5 heating energy. The number of traditional water heaters (broilers or electric water heaters) will not be more than 1. Nowadays, swimming pool heat pumps are popular in many Europe countries. People install them for pools of their houses. Of coures, more and more pools in gym are also heated by heat pumps. Even in aquaculture farms, heat pumps are installed for fishes, for they need stable and warm water to grow quickly.

SOURCE: Pros and cons of gap year

From Brightside with some personal edits...
Advantages

  • The experiences you gain can make you better prepared for university, both academically and socially
  • It's probably the longest 'holiday' you will ever be able to take in your life - taking long breaks will be harder once your career starts
  • You can use some or all of the time to earn moneyfor university, taking the pressure of your finances
  • You can learn new skills, a Computer Science major might learn now coding.
  • You get the chance to experience life away from home before starting university
  • Volunteering gives you the opportunity to help people
  • Both volunteering and working will provide valuable work experience
  • If you're feeling dedicated, you can get ahead on preparations for your course
  • If you didn't get the grades in one of your A-levels, you can retake it and reapply while using the rest of your time to do something interesting or personally rewarding which might also make you look better to the admissions staff.
Disadvantages
  • If you want to travel or take part in an organized gap year programme, it could be expensive
  • There may be changes to your core program of study or your financial aid package during your year off
  • If your friends from home are all going to college, your social life could dry up
  • Unless you review course work, you can forget a lot in a year that would be useful to your course
  • If you've got a university offer and haven't already agreed to defer your place, you could be putting your place at risk
  • If you don't get organised, you may end up spending your gap doing nothing but watching TV. Not helpful for a reapplication or for the future resume or CV!

Granite and Marble are the most commonly used natural stone in the interiors and exteriors of your home. When we compare Granite vs Marble, the texture, colour and appearance plays major role in determining the type of stone. Here are some differences between marble and granite, which may help you in selection process.

Granite:
1. Hard rock material, tough and more resistant to absorbs
2. You will be amazed after seeing the patterns and colors of nature (black granite kitchen worktops is best and evergreen)
3. Can be used directly after purchasing from the shop

Marble:
1. Soft rock
2. You need to lay the Marbles then polishing process will start. Initial laying process is more than granite and tiles
3. Advantage is if you feel flooring lost it's shining then you can do polishing one more time so that you will get the first look.
