Woe To Thee O Land Whose King Is A Child - NMS (Big Jus)

Lessening one's woe...

Advantages: Great fun with language
Disadvantages: -

Patricia O'Conner has produced a jewel of a book in `Woe is I: The Grammarphobe's Guide to Better English in Plain English'. Perhaps the greatest strength in the book is the recognition that language is ever-changing and evolving. Thus, her rules are tempered with the reality that sometimes, that which is wrong today might not be wrong tomorrow. To those of you in the know, 'normalcy' is one of those words that (which?) is actually an improper construct, made to be a viable choice by the fact that a lofty person (in this case, I believe it was a President) used it in public. This book is filled with tidbits of information for any who are interested in the playfulness of language.

Land Before Time 9 - Journey To Big Water DVD

Advantages: Lovely colours, cute dinosaurs and a heart warming tale
Disadvantages: none, apart from a lack of featurettes and extra bits

quality of the graphics and animation, I'd say it was quite a let down. It's not really been improved very much from the old Video tape format. The songs and sound quality however is noticably different, either that or my speakers are much better than when we had the VHS's. But the colours still blur, which is disappointing for me as I'd expected some improvement. The kids on the other hand, adore it and don't care that it's not as digitally mastered as other animated films, for example, those in the genre of Finding Nemo and Toy Story. Title: The Land Before Time 9 - Journey To Big Water Format: Animated, PAL Language English Region: Region 2 Number of discs: 1 Classification: U Studio: Universal Pictures Video DVD Release Date: 22 Sep 2003 Run Time: 71 minutes Overall 4 star rating, a super storyline and follows quite ...

Felix Da Housecat aka Felix Stallings Jr. is one of the most influential people in dance music and certainly one of the most talented. Music always played a huge role in his life. Growing up in Detroit in the 1970s, his father who was a saxophonist instilled a love of music in Felix, especially soul and funk like Stevie Wonder. During the 80s he started to develop a big interest for house music, listening to the pioneers of house music such as Farley "Jack Master" Funk made Felix start recording his own house music tracks at the age of 14! He was also in an R'n'B band and during his two years at university in America's Deep South he made some hiphop. He hated his days at college there and so he dropped out, returning home to his beloved Detroit. He studied Audio Engineering at Columbia College, which would prove to be invaluble in his ...
