Somewhere On The Waves
Posted: September 26, 2008 | Author: steveconway | Filed under: 1980s, 1987, New writing, offshore, radio, Radio Caroline, Seven Towers | Tags: books, Irish writing, New writing, Pirate Radio, radio, Radio Caroline | Leave a comment
Great to see some interest being expressed in my recently finished book Somewhere Down The Crazy River – Life On The Waves With Radio Caroline even as my agent Seven Towers work towards finding a suitable publisher.
A couple of radio interviews are lined up over the next few weeks – details here once timings confirm – and the project also gets a mention in the latest edition of Hotpress magazine as a footnote to an item on the launch of Eamon Carr's new book The Origami Crow, Journey Into Japan, World Cup Summer 2002. Eamon is another Seven Towers author, broadcaster and former member of Horslips.
The mention of my book in Hotpress is probably thanks to it's Deputy Editor Stuart Clarke, who has more than a passing interest in things Caroline related – when I arrived on the ship for the first time in February 1987 to take up the position of newsreader, it was to take over the role recently vacated by Stuart himself.
Lots more activity around the book, and extra readings around the country over the next few months, and hopefully, there will be more to tell on the publication front soon.
Last Wednesday: Shipwrecked
Posted: September 23, 2008 | Author: steveconway | Filed under: Events, Fiction, Irish writing, New writing, non-Fiction, offshore, Poetry, Prose, Publishing, radio, Radio Caroline, Ross Revenge, Seven Towers, Somewhere Down The Crazy River, storms at sea | Tags: books, Goodwin Sands, Irish writing, New writing, offshore, radio, Radio Caroline, RTE, storms at sea | 1 Comment
It's that time again – the monthly "Last Wednesday" open-mic evening for Irish writers, is on tomorrow, Wednesday 24th September 2008, at Cassidy's of Westmorland Street in Dublin City Centre.
The event is hosted by the Seven Towers Agency and includes poetry, fiction and nonfiction writing.
Apart from myself, readers will include Doog Wood, Oran Ryan, Eamonn Lynskey, Noel Ó Briain, Donal Moloney and Ross Hattaway.
Ross Hattaway was born in Wellington New Zealand, but has lived in Ireland since 1990. He has had many varied jobs and currently works as a civil servant. His first collection of poetry, The Gentle Art of Rotting was published by Seven Towers in 2006. This will be Ross' first reading in Dublin, after touring Lithuania as part of the Poetry Spring Festival 2008 and seeing his work translated into Lithuanian.
Eamon Lynskey has had poems published in many magazines. He was nominated for the Sunday Tribune/Hennessy Literary Award for New Irish Poetry in 2006 and one of his poems will feature on the 2009 OXFAM calendar. His first collection Dispatches and Recollections was published in 1998 and he is currently working onhis second. As well as writing in English, Eamonn has also translated works of Italian poets Montale and Valeri and written in Italian – he holds, (among other qualifications!) a Diploma in Italian Lauguage and Culture from the Italian Institute, Dublin.
Dónal Moloney was born in 1976 and comes from Waterford. He has been writing seriously for ten years, during which time he has written a novel, several novellas and many short stories and poems. He is currently completing a collection of three novellas. He works as a freelance translator and lives in Dublin. He is a regular featured reader at both Chapters and Verse Reading Series and The Last Wednesday Reading and Open Mic Series. Donal is represented by The Seven Towers Agency.
Noel Ó Briain was born in Kerry, grew up in Dublin and now lives in Camolin, Wexford. He is a playwright and poet and a former head of drama at RTE. He has worked for many years in theatre, radio and television as an actor, producer/director, designer and script editor.
He played the part of Cranly in the premier of Hugh Leonard's Stephen D (an adaptation of Joyce's Portrait of The Artist as a Young Man) at the Gate Theatre. He also played the part of the IRA officer in the premier of Brendan Behan's An Giall in the Damer Hall in Dublin and designed the set for this production. The play was later translated into English as The Hostage and staged at The Royal Theatre Stratford by Joan Littlewood.
He has produced and directed many plays in the Damer Hall under the auspices of Gael Linn. Among others these included Gunna Cam agus Slabhra Óir by Seán Ó Tuama and Aggiornamento by Chriostóir Ó Floinn. He also designed the sets for these and many other production. He has directed Ulick O'Connor's Noh Plays at The Project. As a Radio Producer his drama productions have been selected as RTE's entries for the
Prix Italia. He has won a National Jacob's Award for his production and adaptation of Seán Ó Tuama's Judas Iscariot agus a Bhean.
He has worked as Producer, Director, Series Producer and Script Editor in numerous television one-offs, series and serial drama, often combining several of these skills in one production. These have included The Riordans, Bracken (which launched the career of Gabriel Byrne) Glenroe and Ros na Rún among many others. He also produced and directed the controversial series The Spike until it was withdrawn by RTE itself after complaints from the League of Decency and State interference. He has participated in a documentary in the Scannal series on RTE which deals with well known Irish scandals – including The Spike! (to be transmitted in Autumn 2008). He has won the Celtic Film Festival Drama Award for his production of Tom Murphy's screenplay, Brigit. He has devised and conducted numerous screenwriting courses. Among these was the initial course for the development of new writers for the series Ros na Rún on TG4. He has conducted several screen acting courses both independently and for the Gaiety School of Acting.
His poetry and short stories have been published in a number of literary magazines including The Kilkenny Magazine and Poetry Ireland. They have also been broadcast on radio in the short story slot and on Sunday Miscellany. His poetry collection Scattering Day 21 Sonnets and Other Poems was published by Seven Towers in 2007.
Noel has two plays currently available:
The Land of She: An adapted for theatre translation of Brian Merriman's Cuirt on Mhean Oiche, this hillarious play is written for five parts.
He has also completed a short verse play inspired by Synge's Deirdre of The Sorrows, entitled Áinle and Árdán Are Already Dead.
Oran Ryan is a novelist, poet and playwright from Dublin. He has had poems, short stories and literary critical articles published in various magazines. His first two novels, The Death of Finn and Ten Short Novels by Arthur Kruger were published by Seven Towers in 2006. He is currently working on his fifth novel and had three plays and two screenplays in pre-production. Oran won a 2008 Arts Council Bursary Award.
Doog Wood is a Dublin based poet from North Carolina. His poetry has been widely published in journals and anthologies. His first full collection will be published by The Seven Towers Agency in 2009.
My own reading will consist of part of the final chapter of Somewhere Down The Crazy River, which concludes the book by relating the shipwreck of the Radio Caroline ship Ross Revenge on the Goodwin Sands in November 1991.
All are welcome to attend, it's always a great evening.
More on Gerry Stanek
Posted: September 22, 2008 | Author: steveconway | Filed under: Music, Music Reviews, New Music, Song Lyrics | Tags: Music, Palin, Politics, Rock, Sarah Palin, Singers | 1 Comment
Writing yesterday about the differences between how election ads and songs are regulated (or not) in the USA compared to Ireland, I mentioned the musician Gerry Stanek, who has brought out a great and very funny track "I'm In Love With A Girl Named Sarah Palin" done in country balled style.
At the time of writing, I only really listened to the track itself, but have since gone back to Gerry's myspace page to sample his other material, which is well worth a listen.
It's hard to classify him exactly, as he lies somewhere between country and indie rock, and each song is quite different in style from the last.
"Gravity" is nice, "It Ain't For Me" is quite catchy, but my personal favourite is "They Know My Name" which mixes resigned and downbeat lyrics with 70s sounding backing to produce a song which is suitably plaintive without being over emotive.

Gerry Stanek blog
A lucky musical discovery for me when I was surfing for a news fix!
Palin song – would it be legal here?
Posted: September 20, 2008 | Author: steveconway | Filed under: Music, radio | Tags: Ireland, Music, Palin, Politics, radio, Sarah Palin, US Election | 3 Comments
Sarah Palin's arrival in the US (Vice) Presidential campaign has stirred up fierce feelings on both sides of the political divide, and she has almost eclipsed her running-mate in terms of the amount of press coverage, blog posts etc.
Now one Gerry Stanek, a folk rock musician from Pennsylvania, has come out with a humorous country balled "I'm In Love With A Girl Called Sarah Palin", which treads the line between comedy and admiration so well that I can't work out if it is serious, satire, or just a very clever move by the singer.
The latter is certainly true in any case – it will doubtless get airplay and lots of hits to his myspace page where the song can be heard – http://www.myspace.com/gerrystanek
Interesting to wonder what would happen in this country (Ireland) if a similar song were released during an election campaign – radio stations would almost certainly be prohibited from playing it, or perhaps could only do so if they gave equal airplay to songs from other candidates!
Election-time is a bonanza for broadcasters in the US with massive advertising spending by the different campaigns. Political advertising is not allowed in our system, much to the regret of the ad sales agencies I'm sure.
In light of the recent comments from the radio industry about the Lisbon Referendum, maybe it is time for the whole area to be looked at again. Fairly administered, is there any reason why radio should not benefit from the big advertising spend currently going to newspapers (and poster printers!) up and down the land?
As for Gerry Stanek – way to pimp your career.
You go guy!

I never knew him as anything other than "Fran from Balbriggan", and I only ever met him once, but he was a constant presence over the last 8 years that I've been on Phantom.
Fran was a regular texter to the breakfast show in 2000-2002, and was one of the first to welcome me back when we launched as a licenced station in 2006. It was always good to see his familiar name popping up on the text list every few shows – one of those texters who has been around for so long that they seem more like a friend.
Fran passed away over the weekend at the very young age of 24.
I know from mutual friends how much he is missed in Balbriggan, and he's missed at Phantom towers too.
Rest in Peace Fran.
Nova win Dublin classic rock licence
Posted: September 9, 2008 | Author: steveconway | Filed under: Classic Rock, Licence Awards, Music | Tags: Classic Rock, Dublin, Ireland, Music, radio | Leave a comment
Well done to the folks at the Nova consortium who have won the licence to provide a new classic rock service for Dublin.
Although my own employer Phantom 105.2 lost out in this particular contest, the fact is that Dublin will finally get a classic rock station, which is great news for the listener. And, given the experience of the the people behind Nova at running successful temporary licences, I'm sure that they will do a great job of filling this much needed slot on the dial.
Launching a radio station at any time is a nerve-wracking business, even more so in the middle of an economic downturn, and I wish all the lads and lasses at Nova the very best of luck as they embark on this exciting adventure.
And guys – don't forget the REO Styx Forigner!

Wales will beat England 2-1 against tomorrow. Reason? England cannot score goals but with two obvious exceptions, they have better players. Second version: Wales will win 1-0 (Penalty). Third version: hooligans will get match cancelled.
Whatsoever the result, England will lose because no one likes the English football team – not even the English because they (the team) have a nasty rich image as people. Paid too much. Never win much when it matters. We are saying that the only nice England players are the former England players.
We are saying also that Prime Minister David Cameron needs by 23 June England FC to be winning this Europe thing and on their way to the 10 July final because if they do then the national feel good factor will work for him and people will vote Stay.
We are saying also that Boris, Gove Darling et al need England to be winning this Europe thing by 23 June and on their way to the 10 July final because the national feel good factor will mean the union flag is worn with pride and the people will vote Bye Bye.
We are saying that support can turn elections because a national success turns a result by creating a sense of national ecstasy when a trophy is brought home and a below surface glumness when footballers fail.
The British politicians have always made sporting links to whatever game they play at Westminster and now further afield. The post-war Labour Prime Minister Clement Attlee installed a teletext system when he arrived in Downing Street in 1945, not to monitor world events but the latest scores in Victory Test matches between an Australian services eleven and England between May and August 1945. More modern prime ministers made sure minor decorations were handed out when cricket and rugby teams won international series and bicyclists dot not fall off.
More dramatically, Saddam Hussein's son Uday had the Iraqi team tortured when they lost in the Asian Cup in 200o. In 2014 North Korean's soccer team was arrested and threatened with execution after losing to South Korea. Losing meant the North Korean people – especially the leader – were shamed. If they had won North Korea would have been proved triumphant politically and ideology.
The conclusion is that only sport creates the sense of pride and unity – or destroys it – for a nation state in tender times. From British Labour Prime Minister Harold Wilson, to Tory and Liberal leaders David Cameron and Nick Clegg, to French Presidents Mitterrand, Chirac and even Sarkozy all have invoked the names and spirits of their national sporting sides at the height of bi-lateral relations knowing sporting arena results could not be signs of how international politics would fall.
Could be that is why the American always play among themselves for the World Series events, not taking chances of losing against political as well as sporting rivals.
The true result has to be quickly taken. In 1970 England failed to qualify for the World Cup four days before Labour (who had basked in England's 1966 success – four months after Moore's side won the Jules Rimet) was beaten at the general election.
Could it be that if England look bad in the Qualifications, then Cameron will lose the Stay vote? Or could another day of disgruntlement work for Boris against those "bloody Europeans"?
Feel the pulse in the only thing that really means much to the English nowadays. The Beautiful Game. It does not really matter if Wales wins or loses. They will always be gallant fighters. The English? No one, other than 25,000 fans, cares a toss. Or is that so? The political strategists who believe Howell and Wilson were right?
The thought of Cameron in a white and three lions T-shirt in Vienna Geneva and Warsaw is something to contemplate. All is to play for. All could easily slip from grasp. After 1-1 with Russia last weekend, anything is possible when own goals decide the political as well as sporting results.

The derby of the Blues - Everton vs Leicester preview
Since the sacking of Claudio Ranieri, the reigning champions truly look like the team from the last year which conquered the English Premiership and made probably one of the biggest surprises in modern football history.
On the other hand, Everton has six straight victories when playing at his Goodison Park. This guarantees a fantastic match today, and that is the main reason why we choose it to be the subject of our preview and analysis.
The home team had the win in their hands at Old Trafford against Manchester United but Ibrahimovic's and the late penalty equalizer took two points from them. After a disappointing defeat against Liverpool, this was a perfect chance for them to make up and to stay in Europe League race because United is currently on the 6th place with three points more and also two games less. The Toffees didn't concede a goal in 5 games out of the last 6 when playing at home. The last defeat came in December last year against local rival Liverpool.
On other side, Leicester City has the streak of their own. They have six straight victories since Claudio Ranieri is out of the picture, but we have to mention that five of them were at the King Power stadium and the only one which was on the road was against West Ham, 3-2.
This game will also be the clash of two fantastic scorers. Romelu Lukaku and Jamie Vardy are in excellent shape in front of this match. Lukaku is currently the top scorer of the league with 21 goals, Vardy only has 10 of them but lately, his started to remind on the last year's player.
In head to head matches, both teams split one win apiece this year. In Premier league Everton defeated Leicester at King Power stadium 2-0. But Lester fought back in the FA Cup defeating Everton at Goodison Park 1-2.
The interesting thing is that from the last 16 meetings between these two clubs 10 of them were ended without a winner.
Everton will be missing Ashley Williams because he was sent off against Manchester United this Tuesday. James McCarthy and Aaron Lennon are also available and Seamus Coleman and Funes Mori will be absent for a long time.
The situation considering Morgan Schneiderlin is still unclear but according to insiders, she could be back for this game.
Leicester will play without their captain Wes Morgan. This will be a huge blow for the reigning champions and also Papy Mendy will be out because of an injury.
You have to be aware that Leicester City will play against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League during the next week and that could affect this game. The manager Craig Shakespeare will probably rest some players before this match.
In our humble opinion, we think that this game will end with a moderate number of goals, which means between two and three goals will be a good bet for you. We are not certain about Leicester's starting line-ups because of the Champion League clash and this is why we advise you to play on goals instead of the final outcome.

EPSRC Centres for Doctoral Training - outcomes of the 2011 mid term review
In 2009, EPSRC made a major investment in Centres for Doctoral Training and funded 45 new Centres. These included a number of Industrial Doctorate Centres (IDCs - based on the Engineering Doctorate model), centres focussed on EPSRC priority areas (Digital Economy, Nano-science to Nano-engineering, and Energy), and also centres in core EPSRC disciplines. The centres bring together diverse areas of expertise to train engineers and scientists with the skills, knowledge and confidence to tackle today's evolving issues, and future challenges. They also create new working cultures, build relationships between teams in universities and forge lasting links with industry.
Students are funded for four years and include technical and transferable skills, as well as a research element. Many centres leverage additional studentships from other sources (such as EPSRC Doctoral Training Account (DTA) funding, EU funding, industrial funding, private funding and so on).
The mid-term review
A mid-term review was held in 2011 which required the Centres to demonstrate progress and impact in their areas. Also included in the review were a number of longer standing centres, enabling a broader overview of the portfolio. In total 59 centres were reviewed and all the centres reviewed received feedback on their progress.
The external panel was chaired by Dr Michael Duncan, (P&G). Other members were Professor Hagan Bayley (University of Oxford), James Smith (Independent), Dr Martin Sadler (Hewlett-Packard), Professor Tony Roskilly (Newcastle University) and Professor Ian Henning (University of Essex).
Outcomes of the review - Panel observations:
Even at this early stage the majority of centres had made good progress or better.
The panel recognised that the Centres for Doctoral Training (CDT) approach was an effective way of training a cohort of students and allowed students more time to gain some specific skills. There was a continuing need to share best practice and monitor centres. EPSRC will continue to share best practise with the existing centres and attend management meetings.
Centres often act as a catalyst for bringing people together. They can also act as a nucleation site to focus a range of research and training activities. The panel observed that many of the centres seemed to have maximum value when aligned with other funding.
It was noted that many universities and other funders were adopting a cohort or centre-based approach to supporting PhD students. EPSRC will engage more widely with universities on the training landscape;
It was noted that many of the centres had succeeded in leveraging substantial industrial funding using a variety of approaches. It was also noted that the challenges of maintaining the cohort ethos were greater in IDCs when the student could be spending up to 75% of their time in industry. IDCs do deliver a unique student experience and effective, high-quality collaborative research;
Successful centres appeared to have strong involvement from a team of academics and staff who are committed to the successful operation of the centre.
It was important to have a clear and robust management and governance structure. This was often exemplified by a strong management committee that met regularly and a strong advisory panel. For many industrially focussed centres it was important to have independent and high level industrial and other stakeholder input which makes a real contribution to the strategic direction of the centres.
The best centres had a mechanism for taking account of student views and acting on them. Students should be empowered to make their own decisions on appropriate training.
Following on from the review, planning has begun for a further CDTs exercise in 2013. More information on the call will be made available in autumn 2012. A list of EPSRC's 80 Centres for Doctoral Training is available.
EPSRC Centres for Doctoral Training - some success stories:
Queen's Diamond Anniversary Prize awarded to University of Manchester
The University of Manchester received a Queen's Diamond Jubliee Anniversary Prize for its work in Nuclear Research and Education. Much of this work was EPSRC-funded, particularly the Nuclear IDC, the Fission FiRST CDTs and the Nuclear Technology Education Consortium MSc in Nuclear Science & Technology which was successfully launched with initial funding from EPSRC and is now running successfully without any support.
Cambridge Nano Doctoral Training Centre
Funded by EPSRC, the Cambridge Nano Doctoral Training Centre is training young scientists and engineers in interdisciplinary NanoScience and NanoTechnology. The programme provides an extremely broad training across many disciplines in Physical Sciences and Engineering, and develops key understanding of innovation, commercialisation and technology cycles in partnership with the University of Cambridge Judge School of Management.
The CDT has lead to a successful spin-out company, Cambridge Innovation Consulting (CamIn) employs six PhD students and has already won a number of contracts. They are supported by the University of Cambridge Enterprise arm.
CamIn is also linked with the University-wide Cambridge NanoForum which bridges disciplines between BioMedical, Physical sciences, and Engineering to build broad research teams developing grand challenge solutions.
University of Bristol and University of Bath Industrial Doctoral Centre in Systems
Major industry players such as Rolls-Royce and Halcrow have recognised the clear need to develop integrated thinking to help investment in and development of UK infrastructure, including transport, water and communications.
Visiting Fellow. Richard Beasley, BSc MSc FRAcS CEng, Rolls Royce's Global Chief of Systems Engineering says "We are impressed with the work of the Research Engineers which has provided a tangible benefit to our Company in some challenging and high profile projects; we continue to benefit from the many thought-provoking research conferences, seminars and workshops run by the Centre, and I personally am happy to supply the support as a Visiting Fellow to the Systems Centre."
Imperial College London - Student success
Jassel Majevadia, a first-year CDT PhD student at Imperial College studying delayed hydride cracking in nuclear fuels, supervised by Dr Mark Wenman, Daniel Balint (Mechanical Engineer) and Adrian Sutton Physics), won the Best Postgraduate Presentation at the Universities Nuclear Technology Forum conference in April 2011. Jassel was invited to write an article for Nuclear Futures, the Nuclear Institutes journal.
Queen's Anniversary Prize awarded to Formulation Engineering at Birmingham
Birmingham was awarded the Queen's prize for new technologies and leadership in formulation engineering in support of UK manufacturing
The submission for the prize specifically cites the CDT and the four supporting partners (P&G, Imerys, Kraft and Johnson Matthey) - all note that EPSRC support for the CDT has been critical in developing the impact of what they do.
The prize was presented by the Queen and the Duke in February 2012.

I think that both of them will be shown (log4j output and system.out).
I dont know why. May anyone explain the question?
Thanks!

A: System.out prints to the "standard out" console. That can be your  text console, but it could be anything, as it can easily be  configured to go elsewhere.
On the other hand, any logger library can be configured to log to any place you want to.
Long story short: most likely, this is due to some specific  configuration setting in your environment. But we don't know your setup, so we can't give any more specific answer.

Q: Simple String comparison question
Possible Duplicates:
String comparison and String interning in Java
What is the difference between .Equals and ==

Just a simple question about comparing strings. Why should i be using string.equals(string2)
and not string==string2 ? Thank you

A: equals tests if the strings' content is the same; == tests if both are the same object.

A: In case you have two different String objects that have the same value.

A: string==string2 is physical comparison and compares the references to objects. equals is logical comparison and the equality can be defined in equals() method which objects inherit this from Object (Parent of all types)


The Yvonne Potter Timber Counter Stool by Inmod boasts a gorgeously curved seat on top of an ultra sturdy steel base in both stocked and custom options. It is as simple as it is stunning. Create your perfect stool by choosing the base finish and seat veneer that will best compliment your space.
for our space. They look better in person than on the web page. I called and asked for an expedited delivery and they did it. The packaging was amazing. All the stools arrived in perfect condition NJ to CA. My first experience with Inmod was the best.
Prosgood quality, exactly as described.
I first purchased one of these counter stools in oak and chrome finish. I loved it so much I purchased a second one immediately. The design is simple and greatly appeals in a modern/contemporary/eclectic setting. The stool is well made, sturdy and nicely finished. The wood seat is laminated oak, in a natural color, and it too is well finished. We needed a shallow stool and this one fits the bill perfectly. And speaking of fit, the seat of the stool is very comfortable for even an ample behind!
Since the oak/chrome combination was a special order, it did take about 8-10 weeks for delivery.
Got two stools in steel/natural walnut.
Great look, nice quality. Very comfortable too.
The downside is that packages were not delivered to the door (I live on the third floor).
These were such an easy solution to making the kitchen look spiffy again! love them!
Just what I was looking for! I purchased 3 stools for our island and the design is perfect: clean, modern and minimal but can fit in with a load of different decor schemes.
ProsComfortable, simple and modern design + sturdy.
IMPRESSIVE + FLAWLESS! Love the sheen on the polished stainless steel frame - brightens up the space!
thank you guys! Love my new stools!
Perfect addition to my kitchen counter dining area! Footrest and curved seat make it very comfy and the stainless steel base is very secure and sturdy. Arrived in excellent condition.
These bar stools are perfect in my kitchen. The curved wood seat has a smooth contour that fits the posterior comfortably. The wood grain top is beautiful and the layered plywood edge gives it a very modern look. The metal frame is slim but very solid. Given the slim frame, I was afraid that the stool might be too flimsy or lightweight and might easily tip over, but it has a good heft and is very sturdy. The footrest is just the right height too. I've gotten many compliments on these stools.
Love the look of these stools. Very sturdy. Seems like good quality. The black pads at bottom keep shifting, however, and I need to adjust every once in a while.
Hi! What is the length and width of the seat?
The width of the seat is 16.7", and the depth is 12.2".
Does this stool stack for storage?
The Yvonne Potter Timber Counter Stools do not stack.
In the picture of the stools at the counter, the stools look like they are bronze or tarnished and not shiney stainless. Can you address this and does the stainless lose shine / tarnish?
The base for these stools are polished stainless steel. We use a high grade stainless steel and if used indoors, will not tarnish/lose shine. It should be cleaned on occasion which will keep you enjoying the beauty for years.
The frame is made of solid, polished stainless steel.
What kind of floor protectors come with the Timber Counter Stool? Are they the same floor protectors as shown on the Kees counter stool?
The glides / floor protectors on the Yvonne Potter Timber Counter Stool are black, and have the same look as the ones shown on the Kees Counter Stool.
I am unclear about the price differences for the options. The picture shows the walnut seat and lists for 169. The options tab for walnut seat shows it as 52 more. Clean explain price for this item. Thanks.
We offer several options for this item which are special order or stock and we only stock it in 1 finish which is the walnut with stainless steel frame. The price shown when you get to this page is for our least expensive option which is special order Walnut or white oak and in a black or white powder coated frame.
Hi, what is the height from floor to the lowest area of the curved seat?
The height to the lowest part of the height is 26.2".
Is the stainless steel frame a shiny or a matte/brushed finish? Trying to learn if these would blend in with chrome-framed chairs that are near by.
The Yvonne Potter Timber Counter Stool has a polished stainless steel frame which means it will be shiny.

Garfunkel, Art & Jack Nicholson 1971 Photo "Carnal Knowledge" Signed Autograph Movie Scene
Simon Garfunkel & Jack Nicholson 1971 Photo "Carnal Knowledge" Signed Autograph Movie Scene
gaartjani19p
This item is an 8" X 10",black and white photo of Art Garfunkel and Jack Nicholson in a scene from the 1971 Movie-"Carnal Knowledge"."Maybe you're not supposed to like it with someone you love." With a script by satirist and cartoonist Jules Feiffer, Mike Nichols's Carnal Knowledge (1971) ruthlessly exposed the damage wrought by pre-1960s sexual mores. From their post-World War II college years at Amherst through the Vietnam era, buddies Jonathan (Jack Nicholson) and Sandy (Art Garfunkel) are a catalogue of male sexual dysfunction. Sensitive Sandy falls in love with and marries college sweetheart Susan (Candice Bergen) only to wonder years later if he missed out on finding the perfect sex/love partner. Jonathan lives for aggressive sexual conquest (starting with Sandy's Susan in college), even as he rails against female "ballbusters," finally guilt-marrying his tiredly voluptuous mistress Bobbie (Ann-Margret, in an Oscar-nominated performance) after she tries to kill herself. By the late '60s, Sandy has moved on to a hippie chick girlfriend (Carol Kane) who can raise his consciousness about the sexual revolution, and Jonathan is single again, but Sandy is a little too old for the peace-and-love generation, and Jonathan bitterly faces emasculating impotence.The photo has been autographed on the front cover by Art Garfunkel and Jack Nicholson.....................BOTH PHOTO AND AUTOGRAPH ARE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION.................

Your Character's Closet: How Clothing can Improve Characterization
September 22, 2016 EV Scarlet Comments 0 Comment
What's in your character's closet?
And not the skeletons in their closet (although that's fun, too). Like, their selection of clothes. How much thought have you put into what your characters wear?
Years later, I still remember reading a series of books where one character always wore loose clothing. He never wore anything tight around the neck. I hadn't even noticed until several books in, someone else mentioned that he hated feeling tied down or restricted, and so that was reflected in his clothes. He didn't want to feel collared.
It's not necessary to go into intricate detail in describing the clothes your character chooses to wear each day, unless it's something important to the plot. Typically, I think clothing descriptions should be brief and subtle. But at the same time, putting characters in their own style of everyday wear is another unique way to characterize who they are as a person.
There's no need to give a full, detailed description every time they change outfits. But these little details will occasionally pop up around your story. Your character puts something into their pocket. Jean pocket? Back or front? Hoodie pocket? Shirt pocket? Winter jacket pocket? Business suit pocket? Purse pocket?
By adding a snippet of detail, it's no longer the broad idea of a pocket—it's the back jean pocket on a pair of skinny jeans, and we can associate a mental image with it.
Description Example:
She tucked the letter into her pocket.
She tucked the letter into the back pocket of her jeans.
Now the reader has a more solid image of this girl. She's wearing jeans. It's nothing crazy, but it gives the world a bit more solidity. In this case, it even says something about the letter, too. Either it's small enough to fit, or she folded it up beforehand.
Maybe you could even make it:
She folded the letter into a tiny square before tucking it into the back pocket of her jeans.
I think I'm getting off track here, and you don't want to get too wordy. It's not like you should mention clothing absolutely every time you describe a character, but at the same time, a flavoring of detail can be nice. It gives the world texture.
I don't know who this girl is or what the letter means to her, but the fact that she folded it up really tiny instead of just in half might be some kind of indicator for how she feels about this letter.
It's good to know what your character will wear on an everyday basis, but also think of any special pieces of clothing they own. Maybe your character has a favorite jacket, hat, pair of boots, jewelry, etc.
For this sample character, it's not just a pair of jeans; it's her favorite pair of jeans. The pair she bought while out shopping with her best friend. The knee is torn from when they hopped the fence to an abandoned building on a dare. There's faded pen swirls and designs on the right leg, where she and her best friend take turns drawing when they're zoning out in class.
Establishing a Character's "Inventory"
Having an established "Inventory" for your character, so to speak, makes the world more realistic. It can also show us what that character's personality and what they value. Again, keeping it necessary. We don't need a laundry list.
If you wanted to incorporate this favorite pair of jeans, for example, it should serve as a symbol of the relationship between her and her best friend, which should have trouble/be put to the test during the course of the story to justify making the jeans important.
Let's say another character, Alice, typically wears a set of boots. They're not as intense as combat boots, and they're not flashy, diamond studded fashionable boots. They're somewhat plain, but sleek and subtly stylish (I imagine a soft black velvet with a buckle across the side). No heels, either. So a nice mix of "looks good" with "comfortable/practical."
All this adds to her character—she's trying to appear tougher, and the boots she wears give a more "closed off" vibe than a pair of flip flops. But more than that, she wants to look good without drawing too much attention. At the same time, these are more of a "comfort" wear than anything else, so they need to be practical and something she can wear with almost any outfit, for almost any occasion.
Do I mention each of these details in the story? Probably not. I'll mention she wears boots, certainly. And if the time is right to mention another detail, I would. But in this case, the brunt of the value comes from ME knowing about these details. It ends up seeping, subconsciously, into your writing, and making the world expand beyond your written pages.
If you don't know where to start, go for basics:
Do they prefer wearing light colors or dark colors? Flashy colors or something more subtle?
Do they dress for comfort, for fashion, for practicality, or some mix?
How much effort/time do they put into getting ready each day?
How conservative do they dress? How much skin are they comfortable showing? Where are they comfortable showing skin? (don't take this as a virgin vs whore kind of dichotomy for your female characters. It can be a lot more complex than that, or simply a preference, like not minding a low-cut shirt but feeling uncomfortable in shorts)
Are they aware of which colors they look best in, based on their eye/skin/hair colors? Do they take advantage of that?
Does their clothing have to fit their lifestyle choices/preferences/hobbies/etc? (Like, something tight but not constrictive for someone who does parkour, a layered or long-sleeve style for someone who gets cold easily, avoiding black and certain types of fabric for someone who works with a lot of animals, and so on.)
It's not the ultimate decider, but how your character answers those questions should reflect their personality in some way, or reflect how they want others to see them. If they aren't as concerned with how others view/judge them, they're more likely to dress for comfort. If they value certain lifestyle choices or hobbies, they'll likely dress to fit those needs.
Just remember…
The character chooses their clothing. Their clothing shouldn't define them. It's not "Because Alice wears boots, she's trying to appear tough." Rather, it's "Because Alice wants to appear tough, she wears boots." Not everyone who wears boots wears them for the same reason Alice does.
And everyone should be dressing differently! It's another way to distinguish your characters and make them all distinctive individuals. Some will dress in whatever's the most comfortable. Others aim for sexy or beautiful or professional, or some combination of those. One character might be very fashion-conscious, while another really doesn't care what's "in." The choice of giving her a hoodie and giving him a pullover sweater can start to map out who they are and how they're different than others.
Once you have their everyday attire down, think about other areas of their life. What kind of bathing suit? Bikini vs a one piece? Speedo vs trunks? What do they wear to bed? How about a formal occasion? (Am I telling you to make all your characters into Sims as a way to make procrastination seem more "productive"…?)
If you're the visual type who wants to actually SEE your character, then the Sims probably is a good tool for you. As another option, here's a free fashion doll dress up website that might help you. Yes, a fashion doll dress up site. Some of the "styles" you can choose from are pretty cool though, so you should check it out.
Have you put much thought into what your character wears? In the comments, give a description of their favorite clothing item, like I did for Alice!

Five Nights at Freddy's is a horror game about taking on the night shift at a Chuck E. Cheese style establishment. Some people might be frightened enough by anamatronic animals as is, but in this game they came to life. After its immense success on Steam the developer has begun work on a sequel.
Five Nights at Freddy's 2 brings you back to Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, which appears to have undergone a bit of a redesign. You're the newest night-shift employee tasked with keeping an eye on all anamatronics. This time around there are no doors to lock yourself into a room with, though. So how can you survive meandering robots? Apparently players can don a Freddy head to make them think you're just another machine.
It remains to be seen if the Fight Night at Freddy's fandom will stick around until 2015, but if they do they'll be able to get their hands on Five Night at Freddy's 2. Here's a link to the Greenlight campaign if you want to see the game on Steam.

Parc Esta is a new 99 years leasehold development that's the former Eunosville HUDC Enbloc. Jardine Matheson Group Unit was regarded as the leading bidders who submitted an outstanding enbloc plots of land through the help of MCL Land. Parc Esta price will be released during the launch of the property project. By 2017, Eunosville will be considered as the fourth successful when it comes to selling which first began as the 330 unit HUDC. The price submitted for the plot of land was also the 2nd highest after Farrer Court in 2007 which indicates that developers are optimistic about real estate market in Singapore and the limited plots of land under the Government Land Sales Programme isn't enough to keep the appetite of the developers in the presently upbeat real estate market.
ParcEsta Former Eunosville HUDC is a unique development with a wide frontage onto Changi Road and Sims Avenue. ParcEsta has full and unique amenities, including a guard house, club house, function room, indoor gym, tennis court, 50m swimming pool, sun deck, BBQ pits & children's playground. The condo's facilities provide full family entertainment needs for your family members and loved ones. The tranquillity of life will be greatly appreciated here since the type of facilities that they've will calm your soul.
ParcEsta Condo would be established in a central plot of lands that shows a potential buyers to invest in. At that time of acquisition, Eunosville has got a balance lease of 71 years left and the collective sale is timely for the residents as well because of the aging building structure. It was forecasted that around 1399 units will still be built in ParcEsta MCL Land in the future base on its collective rate, size of the land and it's ratio.
ParcEsta started in 1980s as the Eunosville estate among of 330 units in a private HUDC which is now found near in Eunos MRT Station. The collective sale is the 2nd highest ever achieved right after the sales of Farrer Court which is the present D'Leedon. Based on the Analyst, each price of the plot land were just less expensive than expected since they sold it to Jardine Matheson Group. The number of residential unit blocks for residential would be 6, it will be 4 for the up and down apartment blocks with 75 units that will be realized since Eunosville HUDC has got a total of 255 maisonettes. The expected price tag based on the acquisition price is approximately $1,700 – $1,750psf.
For 50 years of existence in Singapore, Parc Esta Developer, MCL Land have proven its path in promoting the primary goal of building residential areas and buildings. Among the cities in Asia such as Hong Kong, Singapore, Beijing, Jakarta, Hanoi, Phnom Penh, Macau, and Bangkok, it's only Hong Kong Land and MCL Land make a name to be the most trusted group holdings which contains about 800,000 square metres for a longest period.

On Earth Day, take a stand against plastic pollution
Filed under: environment, health, plastic pollution
On April 22, we are celebrating the 48th edition of Earth Day, the world's largest civic-focused day of action followed by over 1 billion people around the world. Events are organised by groups and communities. To actively take part in the global movement and find an event near you, check out the official Earth Day website.
This year, the event is focusing on a global environmental disaster that is at the very heart of the existence of our company: plastic pollution.
The plastic pollution problem
Plastic pollution is a man-made environmental disaster that affects our planet as a whole: in the oceans, it poisons and injures marine life; in our food packaging and the bottled water we drink, it disrupts human hormones and can cause life-threatening diseases and early puberty.
And our exponential consumption of plastic is only making the problem a little bit worse, one day at a time.
Every single minute of every single day, an astronomic 1 million so-called 'disposable' plastic water bottles are consumed. Most of them will, eventually, end up in the water, whether it is voluntarily or by accident: from plastic bottles abandoned on beaches or alongside rivers to the ones collected and dumped in landfills, they play a major part in oceans pollution.
Experts estimate that by 2050 - only 30 years from now! - there will be more plastic than fish in the oceans.
If you haven't already. Join us in our mission and stay up-to-date with the latest environmental news by signing up for our newsletter!
Why plastic bottles aren't disposable
Just because you personally dispose of something doesn't mean that it will be really disposed of. Protecting the oceans from plastic pollution should come from eliminating the need for so-called 'disposable' plastic bottles. Because the truth is, no plastic bottle is disposable.
It takes about 450 years for a plastic bottle to biodegrade and even then, it is never completely gone: as the plastic seems to 'disappear', it actually breaks down into harmful microparticles that aren't invisible to the eye but very much present in the soil, the air, and the water you drink... Did you know that over 90% of bottled-water contain microplastics?
How does rOcean help and support the planet?
At rOcean, we are on a mission to tackle the plastic waste crisis: from plastic pollution in the oceans to microplastics in the water we drink, we are putting all our energy into developing a solution to the plastic problem.
But that's not all. Because we care deeply about protecting our planet, our oceans and every creature that lives in them, we are also partnering with non-profit organization The Hydrous and Secore. A percentage of our proceeds is being used to help protect and restore our coral reefs.
We believe that plastic pollution doesn't have to be a fatality. By changing our consumption habits, we can reverse the tide.
We want to empower you to help build a cleaner and better world and end the mass consumption of single-use plastic bottles. Because we know that big changes come by working together.
That's why we came up with a solution.

Premil Ratnayake, (Sinhala: ප්‍රෙමිල් රත්නායක; 3 April 1933 – 10 April 2013), was a Sri Lankan journalist, author, writer, diplomat, and former First Secretary (Press and Information). Ratnayake was a prominent journalist, having worked at The Lake House, The Daily News, and The Island. He also worked under Lalith Athulathmudali, as Press Secretary, at the Ministry of Trade and Shipping. In 1984 he was assigned to Bonn, Germany, as First Secretary, for Press and Information, on behalf of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Later while in retirement, he returned to The Daily News for a short period.

 Early life
Ratnayake Mudianselage Premil Ratnayake was born on 3 April 1933, in Hatton, Ceylon. He was the fourth son of Mudianselage Marshal Ratnayake and Rossyln Paranavitanage. He had four siblings; Willy, Wimala, Edwin (former Commissioner of Labour) and Lal, former DIG. Ratnayake was an exceptionally talented student, athlete, boxer and cadet at Ananda College.

 Personal life
Premil married Jasmine Ratnayake in 1964, they had three children; Manohari, Sirimali, and Nayomini Ratnayake Weerasooriya.

 Journalism and writing career
Initially he started work at the Bank of Ceylon, he later left to pursue his passion, which was writing. He joined Lake House, as a journalist for the Ceylon Daily News. Premil worked alongside the likes of Mervyn de Silva who was the editor of the Lake House, Willie de Alwis, D. B. Dhanapala and Christie Seneviratne. Ratnayake was a skilled writer and could speak Sinhalese, Tamil and Hindi.

Apollo 12 Crew Tour in Sri Lanka
In March 1970, Premil covered the historic event of the arrival of the Apollo 12 mission crew in Ceylon, for the Ceylon Daily News, part of a 20-nation goodwill tour, to celebrate the successful voyage to and back from the moon. The Apollo 12 was the second spaceflight to land men on the moon, it consisted of Charles "Pete" Conrad Jr., Richard F. Gordon Jr., and Alan L. Bean. The crew was welcomed by the then Minister of State, J. R. Jayewardene, US Ambassador Andrew Corry, and the Mayor of Colombo, Vincent Perera.

1977 Parliamentary Elections
Ratnayake was assigned to cover the 1977 Parliamentary elections, this included all the election meetings held by J. R. Jayewardene (at the time the Leader of the Opposition), on behalf of the Ceylon Daily News. They covered almost all parts of the island.

 Government positions
Later, on invitation from Lalith Athulathmudali, Ratnayake joined the Ministry of Trade and Shipping, as Press Secretary, to handle publicity for the Ministry. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs then sent him to Bonn, Germany, as First Secretary, for Press and Information in 1984.

 Post Retirement
After retiring, Ratnayake returned to Lake House, to write for The Daily News briefly. Since he was a writer and journalist belonging to the old world order, he didn't fancy writing on computers, and managed to get himself the only typewriter left at the Lake House as he simply says "To hell with the modernity, the scuttling mouse. All this sophisticated hi-fi gadgetry nauseates me and threatens to kill my journalistic creativity. Give me the typewriter any day – I am like an orphan child re-united with his mother. To be true I detest the computer. Only the typewriter can instil in me the desire to write. Its touch the loving caress, inspires me. Maybe I am naive and old-fashioned but I am me and I am in love with the old mistress." Death
Ratnayake died on 10 April 2013, at the age of 80.

 Bibliography
Ratnayake wrote several books in his lifetime, four of which were published. One notable example was an autobiography of Lalith Athulathmudali.

This marks the fifth consecutive year in which OL&T has been selected for this distinction. In the past decade, this prestigious award has provided a mark of excellence for the chosen companies.
"Odyssey Logistics & Technology qualifies as an Inbound Logistics 2009 Top 100 3PL Provider because it has shown consistent results in transforming customers' logistics and supply networks, businesses, and enterprises. Tactical operational results are fundamental to 3PL value, but so is the strategic vision of experienced logistics providers.

TOP 100 Selection Methodology For Inbound Logistics editors, selecting the annual Top 100 3PL Providers demands a great deal of industry and analysis, given the pace of change and the number of new entrants in the global outsourcing market.

The service providers the editors selected possess skill sets and resources capable of matching most outsourcing needs.
Editors make their selection with the goal of providing a balanced and accurate assessment of readers' needs and the 3PLs best-suited to meet their specific requirements.

When Toronto-Dominion Bank's pitch documents asked agencies for advice on how to help avoid taxes on agency fees, Pitch Watchdog took action.
The unusual tax question was yet another in the growing range of demands placed on agencies when pitching for business. A number of agencies contacted Pitch Watchdog &, after we reached out to TD Bank, it dropped the request from the pitch process.
While it's clear that marketers want to identify the best deal when holding a pitch, this was a case of agencies being asked to jump an excessive hurdle that Pitch Watchdog was able to remove.

A: You can try doing this only by CSS, for that you need to edit you Markup.
Check this demo
CSS
#appLinks_list ul {
  position: absolute;
    left: 0;
  top:30px;
  width: 60px;
  list-style: none;
  display: none;
}
#appLinks_list li:hover ul {
  display: block;
  background: #ccc
}
#appLinks_list li:hover {
  background: #ccc
}

I have just added the minimum code for showing dropdown on :hover.

A: from what i understand, use code like this.replace the div id's with your div ids.
$( "#appLink_csrname" ).mouseover(function() {
  $('#changepasswordDivId').show();
});
$( "#changepasswordDivId" ).click(function() {
  $('#popup').show();// use facebox or fancy box code that you are using for popup here.
});

A: I think it's although fault in your html code, watch span and a tags

We stayed there overnight twice at a week interval, on our way to and from a sailing trip. Everything went smoothly. The manager noticed that we were checking the bus stop to Athens and let us know that with our amount of luggage, we needed to catch the bus at the start of the line, which saved our return trip. He also helped us organise with taxi, dinner, etc.
Well located in Lefkas town and rather cloose to the AirPort.
Beds are very hard. Pool area needs fresh up. Limmited food during lunch.
The hotel welcoming was nice and friendly. The room was in average to poor conditions and not worth the required money, Breakfast Ok but on the small side.
Great location, very old facilities. It seems that the hotel has been left on the auto pilot since 1970s. Too high price for such a room. Doors were slamming, lack of sound insulation, a disfunctional wc, are some of the problems. Whenever you decide to consider your business as a service, you should start immediately a reconstruction. Afterwards I could examine the possibility of visiting your facilities.
Very accommodating stuff. They went the extra mile to assist, ensuring a satisfied customer. Great job.
The room was good, but you could only use the shower hand held, which let down the room. The biggest problem was the poor quality of the breakfast. No brown toast, the coffee machine was broken, very little fruit, watered down orange juice etc.
My wife and I stayed at the Ionion Star Hotel after a week long sailing trip and had a great experience. Alex checked us in with a free room upgrade and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay. The hotel is clean and in a very walkable location for shops and activities in the area. Highly recommend!
Good hotel, i would only change the hour of the room service, from 4 pm to 10 am.

Q: jQuery mouseover mouseout event on a  when hover over a div I am trying to make a title appear and disappear over a thumbnail. This is my title span:
<?php the_title(); ?>

This is inside an
 tag with a class of "thumb".
The jQuery i am using is:

Now this works perfectly, but it works when i hover over the title... i would like it to trigger when i hover over the thumbnail rather than where the title is positioned, so that when the mouse goes over the thumbnail (anywhere on it) the title appears.
Can someone help me do this? Also, can i give it an animation effect.. so that it gradually appears and disappears, rather than just instantly appear and disappear?
Miro

A: here is the updated one :-

A: If you don't want it show on pageload, set the initial opacity to 0, and set it to 1 when hovered on...

A: Acording on the title of you question, i suposed that you html looks something like this
This is the thumbnail:

        Title

Check this out:
DEMO
$(document).ready(function() {

    // Start with no title visible.
    $('.thumb').hide();

    //settings
    var opacity = 0, toOpacity = 1, duration = 0;
    //set opacity ASAP and events

    $('.thumbnail').hover(function() {
        $(this).children('.thumb').fadeTo(duration , toOpacity );
    }, function() {
        $(this).children('.thumb').fadeTo(duration , opacity );
    });
});
