FREE DVDs

Advantages: Free trial, large choice, post included,new realeases
Disadvantages: see review

...I like movies and I like freebies, so when you get offered both in one swoop you?re bound to accept! I used my two week free trial with this company and remained with them for a couple of monthsbefore moving on to try many other companies free trials (and winning a new DVD player on Tesco DVD rental site on their free trial offer). I then had an email from DVDs 365 asking me to go back, and offering me a free DVD if I did so. I had just left Tesco (with my new DVD player) so I chose to go back with them. ∆◊◊ THE SERVICE THEY OFFER ∆◊◊ Basically it?s like going to a video shop and hiring films on DVD, except you don?t pay for each film you chose ? rather a monthly fee for which you can watch as many movies as you can fit in, for us this is usually around 8 a month (2 a week usually weekends...

Excuse Me Doug. E. Fresh You're On (Ah-Ah On)

Advantages: Bangers throughout
Disadvantages: Small role from MC Ricky D

..."Oh, My God!" came out in 1986 and was the debut album from Doug E. Fresh & The Get Fresh Crew. It came at a time when there was clear advancement in the Hip Hop world as the Barbados-born New Yorker dropped the album once the second wave of Hip Hop came up, following the Old School (which featured the likes of The Sugarhill Gang, Kurtis Blow and Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five) and so with the progressive nature of the likes of LL Cool J, the Beastie Boys and Run-D.M.C. leading the way for acts such as this, it made for a newer and more refined sound. The Get Fresh Crew consists of Doug E. Fresh, who does the lead raps and beatboxing, in addition to DJ Barry B, DJ Chill Will and MC Rick D (who would later be known as Slick Rick). 1. "Nuthin'" The album gets going in an exciting way as you find that Doug E. jumps right in...

Surprising Picture Quality - Panasonic DVD-S54

Advantages: Incredible picture quality when compared to my old non-upscaling player with a scart lead
Disadvantages: Sometimes disc drive can be really noisy when DVD's initially load.

...At first I wasn't convinced by up-scaling DVD player technology but was persuaded after reading an article in "What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision" magazine. Unable to afford a Blu-Ray player my sister and I bought the Panasonic DVD-S54 to match our parents brand new Panasonic TX-32LZD80 LCD television as their Christmas 2008 present. Admittedly it was a slightly selfish purchase as we both live at home and wanted to watch DVDs on the big new TV ourselves! We bought the player from the electrical retailer Comet for about £100 just before Christmas so there were no discounts applied. On Christmas day when opened we found a relatively small box tightly packed with the player in polystyrene packaging. All the components such as cables, remote and manuals were well presented in their own protective plastic bags, to keep them protected. The player...

"Passing the PRINCE2 Exam - Ken Bradley"

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: It's very pricey

...I was very anxious reading this "Passing the PRINCE2 Exam - Ken Bradley" when i ordered it. But it was very disappointing when i recieved it. I discovered that it was not worth that price at all because of its contents. May be you like to know that, it only contains one sample question on both the foundation and practitioner exam. To be honest, this cannot make you pass either of the aforementioned exam. I only bought it, thinking it's full of various sample questions,unknowlingly it's just one sample question for both exam as i've mentioned. In my own opinion and from what i've experienced, you don't need this book. Just practice using various online sample questions after you've read the "Managing Successful Projects with PRINCE2" text book. Then you should be fine. Or better still, if you can get the software which contains numerous...

Review of Passing the PRINCE2 Exam - Ken Bradley

Traitor's Sun by Marion Zimmer-Bradley

Advantages: ties up some loose ends
Disadvantages: leaves even more loose ends, but that's not really a disadvantage

...Traitor's Sun is the last installment in Marion Zimmer Bradley's highly acclaimed Darkover series, written before her death. This chain of novels focuses on Darkover, a planet settled by the survivors of a 'lost' Terran colony ship, and the unique culture that gradually develops to meet the demands of this alien world. A culture feudal in structure, where technology is driven by the psy gifted of the population, and ruled by the same - those called the Comyn. With the rediscovery of Darkover, designated Cottman IV by the Terran Empire, this society must absorb the impact of Terran science and counter the overbearing nature that besets any bureaucracy. While the people of Darkover learned to adapt to the presence of the Terrans, factions within the Empire were moving to consolidate power. Hinted at in previous books, the Expansionists...

Tracy, It's Phil... We Lost Doug - Classic!!

Advantages: Hilarious, and components are unexpected
Disadvantages: Heather Graham not shown anywhere near ENOUGH!

...! The film and story line were originally written by 2 other people, only to be taken over by Jeremy Garelick and Todd Philips. The credit went to them and not to the previous writers. Plot Just before I tell you the plot, I thought instead of giving you then whole story word for word, I thought that I would just give you the gist and main events that happen without telling you the small details which will give away the small parts of the story.. the vital bits! I don?t want to ruin the film, I just want to take your breathe away with my version of the film! Enjoy! The groom, Doug (player by Justin Bartha), is taken to his bachelor party; location Las Vegas, a few days before his wedding to Tracy (Sasha Barrese) planned by his 2 best friends, Phil (Bradley Cooper) and Stu (Ed Helms). Doug being the kind man that he is chooses to invite his...

Review of The Hangover (DVD)

* Jokes ? What Jokes ?! *

Advantages: None!
Disadvantages: Everything!

...Bradley Walsh born in Watford on 4th June 1960 is an English Comedian and Television actor. He is married to a choreographer named Donna and together they have a ten year old son , although Walsh does have a twenty six year old daughter from a previous relationship. You may remember him for his most famous role , which was playing Danny Baldwin in Coronation Street. He has also done a bit of Stand Up comedy ; one of his shows 'Bradley Walsh Live' is the one which I will be reviewing. I was browsing the CD , DVD and Games website play.com looking for a DVD for my sister for Christmas , when I came across this DVD in the sale. I had liked Bradley Walsh as Danny Baldwin in Coronation Street and so decided to buy this for a small price of £2.99. This DVD was released in 2004 and is suitable for people over the age of fifteen only...

Review of Bradley Walsh - Live (DVD)

He is truly a Sicko

Advantages: great commentary on society. unflinching humour
Disadvantages: may be too offensive for some

...Doug Stanhope is an edgy comic from Massacheusetts who has a number of DVDs on the market. One of which I have already reviewed previously. He is very controversial and is no stranger to chasing controversy and frequently offends his patrons. I saw him live in Manchester a few months ago and he was hilarious, although I can't remeber most of what he said as I was just in awe of being in the same room, giggling away to myself. To give you a taste of what he's like, here's the first joke from the show... 'I blew a speaker in my car today... yeah... he was a motivational speaker. It left a bad taste in my mouth but I feel a lot more positive.' Sicko is the DVD of a 1999 comedy show which was previously released on CD and I must admit to reviewing the CD version. it's currently playing in the background as I write. A disclaimer to anyone...

GOOD STACKING TOY

Advantages: WELL MADE
Disadvantages: NONE

...Melissa and Doug make some good strong wooden toys. This Flair Melissa & Doug - Stack and Sort Board is one I have seen many children use. It is really an educational toy. This board is a fairly thick base about 6cm wide and 2 cm thick it is about 30cm long .(my measurements are not exact but guesswork I do not have the toy with me but visualised it against a ruler I have here .) There are 5 poles of ascending heights fitted into the natural coloured base these have The tip at the enc coloured either red , blue , yellow , purple or green. Onto these fit coloured shapes. There is 1 green circle, two purple rectangles, 3 yellow triangles, 4 blue squares and 5 red pentagons 15 shapes in total . These shapes will fit onto any of the poles but the idea is to match the colours and shapes and then pop them onto the same pole...

My Grandad Doug

Advantages: my grandad
Disadvantages: he has gone now

...I want to tell everyone about my Grandad who passed away on 30th June 2004. At 87 years old. He was a very special person to a lot of people. He was a husband, a dad, a step-dad, a granddad, a great-grandad, a cousin and a friend. Grandad Doug had children grandchildren and great grand children in Canada. When I was only 11 months old my mom met and moved in with my dad. This is how I came to meet my Grandad.I don’t remember that as I was too young to know what was going on. That is how my granddad and I got our special bond because he had married my Nan when he was 70 yrs old and acquired five children. Every one else was blood related except us. And it was that that made us so special. My earliest memory was when my Nan and Grandad used to do tea dances on Thursday afternoons. This was at Christ Church Centre. Grandad...
