Advantages: The greatest band in the world...
Disadvantages: ...aren't they?

...- not the handsome actor Who plays a hero’s role Hero - not the glamor girl Who’d love to sell her soul" A quite magnificent achievement as Rush surpass themselves with both message and medium. The lyrics are enlightening and entreating, telling stories of sadness and nobility in the face of human frailty. This song is about what it really means to be a hero - not your media-manufactured actors, singers and sportstars, but everyday people who do extraordinary things. Musically, this stands out also. Slower, sparser, with some beautiful sweeping synths underlying the chorus and lovely strumming acoustic guitar, this is music for grown-ups; mature and intelligent. (10/10) 5. Between Sun And Moon (4:37) "There is a fine line between love and illusion A fine place to penetrate The gap between actor and act The lens between wishes... Read review

Advantages: Great high speed action, a sporting soap opera of mixed emotions
Disadvantages: Sometimes tragedy occurs

...speed, leaving him with serious head injuries and in a coma. He returned to racing and won his first race in 1997. Michael Schumacher – Britain 1999. Brake failure at over 190mph caused Schumacher to hit a wall at Stowe and break a leg. Again the sheets came out to cover the images of an injured sportstar. MY EXPERIENCES: You’d be forgiven for thinking that I had a ‘downer’ on the sport from reading my introduction. That is far from the case. I love Formula One with a passion. I have a room at home full of memorabilia that I have collected over the last fifteen years or so. I have videos for each year, together with the corresponding books. I have numerous books, miniature cars and helmets that I have collected over the years. My pride and joy though are two Peter Radcliffe (Windsor) Limited edition prints of Damon Hill... Read review

Advantages: Easy on the eye
Disadvantages: Not exactly likely to pull any of them

...to look good. Rant over. Gabriella Sabatini --- Remember Gabby Sabby? Quite possibly the loveliest tennis player to ever pick up a racquet (that includes YOU, Kournikova!), Gabby really was an attractive individual (she still is of course, it's just that she's not in the public eye these days). To be honest, it was probably Gabriella who started off the current trend of glamourising female sportstars, and Anna Kournikova wouldn't receive the modelling contracts that she does these days if Gabby hadn't done it ten years earlier. The best thing to come out of Argentina since Mario Kempes. But with better hair. Jennifer Connelly --- Ah, another Jennifer. A lot of you may not have heard of Jen until she won an Oscar(tm) last year playing Russell Crowe's wife in "A Beautiful Mind", but she's actually been around for AGES. In fact it... Read review

Advantages: Tremendous value for money
Disadvantages: Poor circulation sales

.... At the end of this section are a few pages on motoring. I like the road sage article, which gives you advice on maintaining the car and driving tips. Many readers like the weekly article by Jeremy Clarkson. His TV chat show put me off. He always did the show in jeans. His idea of fun was putting an egg in a microwave oven and watching it explode. I was not a fan of BBC2’s ‘Top Gear’, which he presented. Fortunately the series has now been scrapped. The sports section takes me about 1 hour 45 min to read. THE FUNDAY TIMES This section is for kids but I enjoy reading it. There are cartoons strips featuring Scooby-Doo, Loony Tunes characters, Tintin and my favourite Beryl the Peril. There are interviews with popstars, sportstars and other celebrities. There are also competitions and reviews of books, CDs and PC... Read review

Advantages: surprisingly witty
Disadvantages: will stop you from eating cream based cakes and confectionary.

...I bought this dvd about a year ago as it was in a sale. After enjoying other american teen gross out comedys such as American Pie and Road Trip, I assumed this would be very similar in terms of what it would offer, both character wise and comedy wise. Having said that I had heard mixed reviews about the film, some claiming it was awful while others saying it was hillarious. After watching it I am happy to say I agreed with the latter. Yes this film offered many cheap laughs and female nudity, but the story itself did'nt revolve around the birds and the bees. Furthermore the characters were far more varied than just a goup of friends consisting of a nerd, party animal, sportstar and nice guy. All in all I was surprised at how subtle and witty this film was, and although there were many cliches surrounding the characters, they were... Read review

Advantages: Tremendous Fan Base and History!
Disadvantages: Current Side not as Great as in the Past!

...of this world. I would have expected him to be captain for the next 5 years. So his resignation as captain has shocked me. On my last trip to India, I picked up an excellent sports magazine called 'Sportstar'. The writing was superb and better than anything found in the UK. There was an excellent article about the demise of West Indian cricket. Apparently the West Indian cricket board spent a lot of money on hiring an Australian coaching team. But the results have been disastrous in both tests and one-dayers. Perhaps their next coach should be West Indian? The next cricket World Cup takes place in 2007 in the West Indies. New stadia are being built. I hope that the tournament is not as drawn out as the previous one in South Africa. Before then, the Champions Trophy takes place in India later this year. West Indies are the defending champions... Read review
