A fascinating insight into Kiefers family and life

Advantages: Useful index, lots of interesting background info on his family & his many films & projects
Disadvantages: Some movies or projects there's less info. on than others

...the different stages of Kiefers life and details his relationships in terms of his few failed marriages, his whirlwind romance with Julia Roberts and his relationship with his father Donald Sutherland. It also provides enough (but not quite too much) background information on his family and it gives information on all the movies and shows he's been in, as recently as the movie 'The Sentinel' and the show that pretty much re-launched his career, 24. If your interested in finding out more about the man behind the character of Jack Bauer, like me, you should find this a fascinating read and shouldn't be disappointed. I thought it was a well thought out biography with a handy index for using to look up individual movies if you go on to buy some of the DVDs of his earlier movies and so on. Definately worth a read, especially as Kiefer himself adds...

Review of Kiefer Sutherland: The Biography - Laura Jackson

Kiefer

Advantages:
Disadvantages:

...Kiefer has enjoyed plenty of success considering his tender age, notching up a total of five singles titles. He won in Dubai in February but first-round exits at Wimbledon and the French Open means he is only placed 22nd in the Champions' Race. Those Grand Slam failures came off the back of a second appearence in the quarter-finals of the Australian Open, which proved he again the German is a player of great promise. Kiefer, who lives in Sievershausen, reached the quarter-finals of Wimbledon in 1997 on his debut, only to be beaten in straight sets by Australian Todd Woodbridge. He was knocked of Wimbledon the following year by his hero Boris Becker in the second round. The 23-year-old has yet to get further than the Quarter-finals in any Grand Slam event and his two efforts in the US Open have resulted in...

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...

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...

Homo Not-So-Sapiens

Advantages: generally excellent
Disadvantages: the organisational chapters are rather dubious

...The belief that humans are, essentially, rational dates to the Greek antiquity, and although intellectual and philosophical fashions changed throughout the epochs, the capacity to reason and behave in a rational manner is often considered to be a defining characteristics of mature humanity. Irrational behaviours have been seen as an evidence of psychiatric or otherwise pathology. And yet there is plentiful (and growing) evidence of irrationality in human thinking and behaviour. Although capable of reason, human animals are certainly not rational by default. Stuart Sutherland's book examines the body of evidence for human irrationality amassed during close to half a century psychology research. Although first published in 1992 , Irrationality still provides a wide (if by no means comprehensive) account of relevant research...

Yorkshire's Very Own Potted Beef!

Advantages: Tastes Nice
Disadvantages: Not Widely Available

...life anyway. The only problem with refrigeration is that it does make the Spread go hard which makes it difficult to apply onto the bread without tearing little bits off it. I would therefore recommend that you remove it from the fridge about an hour before use, this way it will spread much easier. I paid 64p a 113g tub of Sutherland's Yorkshire Potted Beef Spread. Sutherlands have actually been making this product since 1927 and what is more it is even produced in my home town of Sheffield. I am not sure if this product is available Nationwide but I have also seen it in my local Sainsbury's. Thank you for reading....

A Mind in Torment

Advantages: Much information about mental illness
Disadvantages: Painful to read at times

...(Various editions at various prices on amazon). If you visit the Psychology section of any large bookshop or library you will notice that there seem to be three main groups of books : the textbooks, self-help manuals and personal accounts of mental illness or similar traumata. Breakdown is, I think, unique in that it?s all three. The book is in two parts. In the first, Sutherland describes how his breakdown came about, and his experiences receiving treatment. The second part is a survey of treatments in general, and of current thinking in the fields of mental illness. He was a friend of mine, as I?ve described in my opinion about respecting men. When I am talking about the book, I shall observe reviewing conventions and call him Sutherland. In the final part, he will be Stuart. He would have approved of that. ********** Part One...

FREE DVDS

Advantages: up to date dvds, four weeks free hire with 3 dvds at a time,
Disadvantages: see review

...My recent quest for FREE DVD hire I visited and many DVD web sites that offered a free trial. Now call me tight (no that wasn?t an invite), but I like bargains and freebies and am not ashamed to say so. My quest took me to enough sites to hire DVDs for about four months so far (with plenty to come too). My latest free DVD site also happens to be the best I have tried for several reasons (see rest of op); the site in question is Blockbuster.co.uk. Other sites that I have had free rentals from and then cancelled have all been similar, two weeks free trial with two DVD?s per time ? which in effect gives you about four free DVD?s. With Blockbuster?s things are different slightly ? which add a great deal of benefit to us the customer. Firstly, you get FOUR whole weeks free rental, which equates to at double the length of time most...

I get Kiefer for 24 weeks

Advantages: Kiefer Sutherland, Tension, innovative
Disadvantages: soft advertised

...Twenty Four is heaven sent for me being a huge fan of the Sutherland men for the last 20 years and especially Kiefer. It's good to be able to see him for 24 weeks. The annoying thing is that although it was publicised well by the BBC I feel there wasnt enough publicity by Fox, none of the acotrs have been over here on promotional tours, doing the chat show circuits, unlike in the states where Kiefer seems to be on Leno and Rosie every other day! Anyway I'm here to give my opinion of the show, I feel that this show is so innovative that it appeals to many people, the direction is very movie like, the story, is action packed, the who done it aspect, of all the plot twists, the style of the show itself is excellent. Basically it sees one day though the eyes of different peoople all involved in the main plot which is the assasination...
