What a finale! Donegal V Cork, just like an All Ireland final as Shane pointed out. Only without the Hurley's a-course. We saw contestants take their coaches to their respective home counties and parade them around the town like the Sam Maguire. Bressie was gutted to learn there's no McDonalds in Castletownroche, so he consoled […]
It's the Semi-Finals, just one more to go!
The semi-finals started in style with the coaches singing and some nifty steps from Prodijig – Riverdance eat your heart out! There was lots of talk of tackle, tweets accusing the coaches of being deaf and Bressie giving out about monitors again. Soon it was time for the inaugural 'The Voice Has Got Talent' and […]
Bressie's Tackle…
Can you believe it's the Quarter Finals already? The show opened with some girl power from Stooshe then saw cosmetic dentistry confessions, arguments over post codes, and talk of arses and orals. Eoghan managed to get #tackleBressie to the top of the Twitter trends. However he failed miserably when it came to actually tackling the […]
Pimp My Goose
After opening with a sterling performance from McFly, Live Show 4 saw scandalous accusations from coaches, alarming threats from contestants, copious amounts of kissing, and talk of er, goose-pimps… We learned Bressie doesn't understand how the show works, Jamelia doesn't have a problem with accents but does have difficulty getting into her chair and […]
The week of testing tweets
The third of the lives already, and this week was full of testing tweets, animal associations and.. well.. arse talk. We learnt there's not much love for AC/DC in Cork, fans don't vote for contestants based on their hair (or do they?), and Kian doesn't like it when folk prance around the stage. Shannon told […]
Thong Part Deux..
The second of the lives saw arguments over leather kaks, various references to bodily secretions and yet MORE underpants. A bolshy Jamelia claimed she had no regrets over her scandalous voting tactics the previous week even going so far as to say she'd do it again – put that in your pipe!! Eoghan looked particularly […]
Live Show One in the can
The first of the lives and it was all about half naked dancers, visible underwear and a triumphant return for Sharon's gold pants! The coaches kicked off the show quite literally with their group rendition of 'Teenage Kicks"; though it'd be fair to say it's been more than a few years since any of […]
Last Chance Saloon for First Ever Sibling Battle
The last of this year's Voice of Ireland Battle shows could not have kicked off with a greater pairing. All Jamelia had to do was pitch a sexy snail-lovin' lass from Nice, France, against an enthusiastic graveyard wanderer from Stepaside, Dublin, for this week's first head-to-head contest. Alexandra and Sophie borrowed more than just a […]
Last Minute Mix Ups and Five Minute Hip Swings
It would seem that Kian Egan's "big Louis Walsh head" is not going to sway any younger contestants on The Voice of Ireland. That's according to Dylan, who kicked off this week's Battles alongside fellow Team Jamelia member Ben. Despite Dylan's reluctance about Jamelia's choice of a "whiny" Linkin Park song, Lemar was fairly impressed […]
High Heels and Low Blows
"Just out of bed?" joked Bressie, as two sleepy hopefuls shuffled towards rehearsals on this week's show. Sure enough, it may have been a fairly early rise for The Voice of Ireland Battles brigade, but Andrew and Eoin (along with a packed house at The Helix) were most certainly ready to rock by nightfall. A […]

Dear Warren Throckmorton,
I've read your article 'Why Do I Have These Feelings' on the internet. As an European Christian (Dutch), rather conservative, I can identify with your vision on the origins of homosexuality. I have written 'as an European Christian', because I've got the impression that American evangelicals in general emphasize over and over again that homosexuality is not a congenital orientation, as if they need that to defend that homosexual relations are wrong. In my observation (which is limited) American evangelicals are quite militant in this, with the Ted Haggard story as one of the results: he had (and has) to deny that he has an homosexual orientation, although that may be the case (but who am I to decide that), with the risk to create a virtual image of himself and the obligation to live by that image.
Am I right that your vision on the origins of homosexuality is rare amongst American evangelicals? In the Netherlands, even conservative Christians who don't condone homosexual relationships are not afraid to see homosexuality as an orientation that has a complex origin, and probably has a congenital dimension. There are church members/elders/pastors who can say that they have a homosexual orientation, and that they expect to live with that their whole life, but they choose to abandon homosexual relationships. Is my conception right that this approach is not very known among American evangelicals?
With regards,
C. Wiskerke,
I think this person sees the American scene clearly. I was encouraged to see some thoughtful discussion of these issues by Dr. Albert Mohler in his new column, Is Your Baby Gay?

Priceline Commits Fraud
Posted by
CONNECTICUT -- The website will only let you order six tickets at a time. I needed 7 so I had to do two orders. The price was 363.59 per ticket for the first order. Within seconds I ordered the next ticket the price showed 429.59. I had no choice but to make two orders. After speaking with customer service (who was rude) she said there was nothing they could do even though each ticket had the same offer id numbers. I had never used Priceline...my BIG mistake. I am surprised that the reviews on this sight do not correspond with the other review sights....kind of makes you wonder.
Never again. Please go elsewhere...

Do Not Use Priceline.com
Posted by
WARNER ROBINS, GEORGIA -- I would never use Priceline.com ever again. My husband scheduled a flight for my 70 year old mother, however due to reasons of anxiety of flying she needed to cancel the flight. We made a call to Priceline hoping to get this resolved all to be transferred to 4 different Priceline employees, we were told that they could not cancel the ticket under any circumstances, not to mention how rude Bernice, the last and final so called "Customer Service" person was to my husband, not to mention when he asked her if he could get the name of her supervisor, she declined to provide it along with declining to give him her last name, so we ended the call with nothing but frustration and disgust. The airline was more than willing to cancel the flight, but Priceline was not!!!
Please if anyone is ever thinking of booking a flight, please do not ever think of using Priceline. They are the absolute worst of the worst. The company must be really having financial struggles if they are unwilling to cancel a flight, which I might add they will turn around and resale, but are unwilling to keep satisfied, repeat customers. I will never use Priceline again they really a lesson in good customer service, because no matter how much they advertise, word of mouth is and still remains the best form of advertisement. Signed a disgruntled customer.

What a rip-off
Posted by
I just spent 2 hours on the phone with Priceline and Budget Rent a car. I had to change my reservations due to a family emergency (funeral) called to change my airfare and was screwed out of $250 and then they wouldn't change my car rental reservation that I prepaid evidently. So I lose out on $160 for that and $250 for the airfare. In essence I paid for services that I didn't get and they refused to budge at all.
If I offered customer service like this I would be out of business.
It is my opinion that this company is a ripoff and I wouldn't recommend this company to my worst enemy.

Awful Customer Service
Posted by
Priceline has great services, yes, but they have the most awful customer service I have ever come in contact with. I was scheduled to fly out of Sioux Falls to Colorado Springs, however, my grandfather unexpectedly passed away and the funeral was the day I was to fly out. I notified Priceline in my change of plans, and asked what my options were. Hence NONE of the customer service agents I spoke to could speak English. After being on the phone for OVER an hour, the only information I came out with is that they can hold my tickets, but if I ever want to use them again it will cost me $180.00 in fees. I spoke to the airlines then and they stated that they would waive their fees of $150.00, but Priceline refused to waive their $30.00 fee (seriously???).
About three weeks later I found a great flight for $40.00 less than my origninal flight and called to book it with Priceline. Again, I had an agent that could not speak English (awesome). So I spent another hour on the phone with him and was placed on hold numerous times. He would not waive any of the fees that I was originally told I could waive. That fabulous flight I had mentioned earlier was null and void because it was with a different airline than I had originally booked. He said the exact same flight (using the airlines I had to use) was $900.00!!!!! The flight I found was $200.00. ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? The agent never apologized for the inconvenience and never offered any other suggestions. AND to top it off, I found a flight for $300 on their website using the correct airlines, but he failed to mention that to me on the phone. So all in all the money I spent on my first tickets is wasted because of unaccomadating services. Who is going to pay $180 in fees when you can find a new ticket for that price??

Priceline: Travelers Beware
Posted by
I made a reservation online with my debit card through Priceline for my fiancee to fly on Saturday September 18 to Atlanta from Dallas.
On weds I chose the trip, made the reservation with payment and got the confirmation together with the itinerary and the itinerary mailed to my mail box. The flight was to fly out of Dallas @ 11.40am on Saturday. I dropped my fiancee at the airport, drove back 40 minutes home only to be called by my fiancee that American Airline will not let her board because my reservation has been cancelled by a guy called Rocky Smith from Priceline. At first I thought she was joking, or there has to be a mix up somewhere because we had a contract, and I have the itinerary and this is not the first time I m making Airline reservation.
To cut a long story short. I drove 40 minutes back to the Airport and was told at American airline counter to call Priceline. I called Priceline, and was informed they suspected fraud and had to cancel my reservation....FRAUD? Incredible! I asked the representative that out of the thousand of reservations made, how do they determine which one is fraud, you don't tell customers you suspect fraud after you have allowed their payment to go through and charged their cards. And even if they suspected fraud they shouldn't have uninalterally cancelled a valid contract without adequate notification, thereby leaving me and my fiancee stranded at the Airport.
I asked to speak to a Manager, at least someone to please help us make another reservation so that we can get on a plane to Atlanta instead of being stranded at the Airport. So much for customer service, I was bounced around from one department to the other. While all the reps were telling me to buy another ticket. I explained to them, that since it was their decision to cancel my valid reservation and I haven't been refunded, that the onus is on them to right things by helping us get another reservation /plane ticket....needeless to say all I got was customer disservice and I had to angrily leave the airport after being taken for a ride by one of the worst air reservation companies out there.

If you have any other option use it!!

You may be one of the lucky ones, if your plans don't change you will never have to talk to a customer service agent at Priceline.com. That, unfortunately, was not my experience. I called to find out how much it would cost to change a non-refundable flight. I was advised that the dates for my flight could be changed for a "$100- $150 airline charge fee"and any cost for the difference in airfare. The problem occurred when A. I was advised that I would need to research the available flights and then call Priceline back and then they could help me figure out what I needed to do. OK, done. I called back and the second person I talked to just said the exact thing over again (word for word/verbatim). I explained that I had already found flights for the alternate schedule, but the woman could not get past her scripted response. To add to the frustration there were digital audio problems and the woman spoke thickly accented English and spoke quickly. I had to ask her to slow down several times and to repeat the information. Finally she admitted she could not help me and transferred my call. During the transfer the call was dropped. I called back, got an Alicia, she too spoke very heavily accented English. I asked for a supervisor, she resisted getting one, so I hung up. I called back, got Ruiz, he did do the right thing and transferred me. I spoke with Arlyn, she went through the same long spiel about the charges, she could not answer my question either, so I was transferred again. It took 20 minutes on hold to finally get to Sunny who gave me the information I was looking for. The whole saga took an hour and a half. I won't use this service again and it is important that when you need help there needs to be someone you can understand and who understands you. Front line customer service people need to be empowered to help customers not just parrot information that can be found on the website.

Priceline & Priceline.com Bait & Switch on Airline Tickets
Posted by
NORWALK, CONNECTICUT -- On 5-7-09 I attempted to purchase 2 first class tickets through Priceline.com and I bid what was a reasonable price for first class tickets, I had to enter in the credit card info that they would charge for the tickets, the bid was accepted, I had to initial that I was going to pay for the tickets, etc. All this without their showing me what I was saying I would pay for. Then the screen pops up with 2 coach class tickets! I immediately tried to get Priceline to delete or void the transaction and they refused. I talked to a supervisor, she refused. I emailed the VP of customer relations and she referred the problem to another customer service representative and she also refused. This transaction was a "bait & switch" scheme. I talked to the airline and they told me they couldn't help because Priceline purchases a "bulk" set of tickets and that Priceline still held the tickets, technically, so they couldn't change, cancel, etc. the tickets. I tried Priceline again and they said it didn't matter, I had basically promised to pay and they refused to cancel. I am talking to my credit card company right now to get the payment stopped because I am being charged for something I did not ask for and also I don't have the item, it was not used, etc. There has to be something that the FTC and other agencies could do about these things. I saw there are lots of other complaints against Priceline on this website. They truly use bait & switch tactics on the consumer. I think I should have been able to see what I was supposedly accepting before I agreed to pay. Stupid move on my part but I was trusting them to be a reputable company, they are large and they advertise all over the place. I even plan to complain to William Shatner. His voice is even on their hold message! I will also report them to the FTC, their state's attorney general, their state's BBB, to news media, and everywhere else I can think of to stop this and I want my money back, I want the tickets cancelled, and I will never use their services again!

Flight Tickets at Least 250USD More Expensive Than Other Sites!
Posted by
INTERNATIONAL -- Not a complaint per se, Priceline has a decent website even if I'd do without the rather cheesy celebrities' pics posted on the main page. The most important though is seeking a well priced airline ticket, and resulting is no less than 256USD difference from other sites (Can I say Skyscanner?).
In this case, I would like to ask Priceline to kindly remove the not-so-honest "best price guarantee" they slap next to each result.

Do Not Use Priceline - Rip Off!!!!!!
Posted by
ONLINE, VIRGINIA -- I purchased an airline ticket on Priceline. Their price wasn't any better than dealing directly with the airline. My flight was delayed & I was promised another flight but only the next day. I got sick & couldn't travel for several days. So basically I paid a lot of money for a one way ticket and received no credit. Take my advice & deal directly with the airline

Priceline.com Couldn't Book My Flights
Posted by
I was attempting to buy a $5000+ flight itinerary on Priceline. com. First it said they couldn't verify my 3-digit code from the back of my credit card. Then it asked for another credit card. After submitting that information it said, "We are still working on completing your purchase. We will send you an email within 15 minutes. I never heard from them. Completely useless and big waste of time.

Rams, 49ers play to 24-24 tie
Harbaugh said Smith would be evaluated this week per NFL concussion protocol. He wasn't available to speak to reporters. Smith, who has started 28 straight games, wound up 7 for 8 for 72 yards.
The 49ers didn't face Bradford in either meeting last season as the Rams quarterback missed six games with a high left ankle sprain. He had all kinds of extra opportunities this time.
"It's a weird feeling. I've never been a part of a game like that before," Bradford said. "I think the mood in this locker room is disappointment."
Late in the third period, the Rams benefited from Dashon Goldson's 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for taking off his helmet. Then, defensive tackle Ray McDonald was flagged for a helmet-to-helmet hit on Bradford when he came in under the quarterback's chin, extending another Rams drive. Zuerlein kicked a 27-yard field goal.
The penalties and miscues were certainly uncharacteristic of San Francisco's defense.
Crabtree's touchdown midway through the second quarter gave him a TD reception in five straight games against the Rams. It was his third touchdown in two games, and all of his team-leading four TD catches have come in the last five games.
Kaepernick took over as Smith went to the bench to be examined by medical personnel and soon left for the locker room.
One wild play late in the first half summed up this wacky day. Punter Hekker completed a 21-yard pass to safety Rodney McLeod from the end zone after Chris Culliver didn't cover McLeod. Hekker did it again in the fourth quarter and had a notable 118.8 passer rating on the day.
On the Rams' 14-play, 18-yard drive over the final minutes of regulation, Hekker faked an end-around and threw a 19-yard completion to Kendricks on fourth-and-8 from the Rams 33.
But the Rams' defense couldn't get a stop, allowing Kaepernick to get his team back into field-goal range for Akers to tie it.
The Rams played without a pair of starters held out for an unspecified team rules violation, cornerback Janoris Jenkins and wide receiver Chris Givens — and Fisher said afterward he isn't sure if they will play next week at home against the New York Jets.
The 49ers will regroup to face the Bears in prime time.
"It feels weird," safety Donte Whitner said. "We're about wins around here."
Notes: Rams LT Wayne Hunter played after missing two games with a back injury. ... Fans spelled out "THANK YOU VETERANS" in the stands with shiny red, white and blue cards after the first quarter. A special military coin also was used for the pregame toss on Veteran's Day.

Lawsuit: Google's AdSense For Domains Program Contributes To Trademark Infringement
Google Sued in Domainer Lawsuit–Vulcan Golf v. Google from Eric Goldman covers a new lawsuit in which Google is being sued for allegedly violating trademarks by helping domainers monetize "typosquatter" domains.
Eric explains that this filing (4.3MB PDF) may be the first lawsuit against Google for its domainer relationships. The complaint considers Google as the domain name licensee, because AdSense for Domains effectively takes control of domains in the program.
Google's policies aren't supposed to allow typo domains to be in its program, but these get through. And since Google puts ads on them, the case alleges Google is contributing to trademark infringement.

Terry Francona celebrates with a grilled cheese
|07.24.11 at 7:23 pm ET
Safe to say win No. 1,001 in the managerial career of Terry Francona came a little easier than No. 1,000.
The Red Sox pounded the hapless, woeful and woebegone Mariners for 17 hits and 12 runs in a 12-8 triumph Sunday at Fenway that ' as they say ' wasn't really that close.
But the day before the Red Sox skipper had to sweat out a 3-1 nail biter for his grand entrance into an exclusive MLB managerial club.
So how did he celebrate after getting doused with the beer from David Ortiz? Steak, champagne? Not quite.
"I had a grilled cheese sandwich," Francona joked Sunday. "I always have a grilled cheese sandwich."
But what Francona really appreciated wasn't the food or beverage but the roasting and toasting via messages of all types he received from family and friends throughout baseball.
"The prevailing thought seems to be that people are surprised I'm still here," Francona said. "I got that more than anything. I got some nice messages from people that mean a lot to me so that was nice. That actually made me feel better than anything.
"I think it's pretty obvious. I was honored and I was proud but I'm a lot more comfortable talking about our guys and our team. I just think that's the way it should be. I did feel good."
One thing Francona made pretty clear is that – despite being with a great organization that wins year in and year out ' he doesn't see challenging the likes of Tony La Russa, who leads all active managers with 2,691 wins.
"You have to remember, it's a round number but then you start looking at some of those other guys, you need to hush up because there are some guys with some pretty big numbers that are still managing," Francona said. "So, it's actually kind of humbling a little bit. It makes you realize how long they've been doing it and how hard it is to win.
"How many wins does Tony La Russa have? I would be willing to bet that if you see my name with [2,691], there'll be an asterisk. I'll be dead. That'll be quite an accomplishment."

It probably doesnt have enough views to keep up their music videos.....
I cant blame it for taking it out, if thats the case. But it would be nice to have some music videos aired.
Hey does anyone think it's ironic that MTV doesn't play music videos any more? I mean you could watch it for a day straight and find that practically none of the programs even have anything to do with music. Personally i think the programs on it suck and it should go back to playing music videos. What do you guys think?

<<::||.Bass's AO fanart.|||..AO Leaders..|||.Must-read rules of AO.||::>>
Maybe because.. ummmm... let me think. MTV2, and MTV music videos plays all the music. MTV is just not what it used to be, and Vh1, and MTV play music at night time.
"MTV makes me wanna smoke crack."
not sure where it came from but it's one of my favorite quotes. It has changed from music television to tel-me-wats-cool-evision. It's making everyone a drone. Something should be done about the monster but eh, whatever.
"I think I know, I don't think I know, I don't think I think I know, I don't think I think."
Well i dont watch much mtv because it doesnt show much of the stuff i like but it defys the point of the name music television if it has no music videos on it
92% of teens moved to rap. if u are part of the 8% that rock out every day, put this on your sig!!!!INUYASHA :|: THIN LIZZY :|: THIN LIZZY LIVE VIDEO
i think its ironic also... why not change the name to CTV (crap tv)? thats all they put on there anyways... like "oh, date my mom or lets hit each other in the nuts then laugh about it!"... wow... how sad...
lol yes it really is crap television.Originally Posted by alukard_kamui89
I voted no. Why? Because MTV sucks. It shouldn't put anything different on. The entire station should just go off. It's a stupid concept in the first place.
You can't watch music. Therefor, there is no such thing as music television.
Oh. Unless you're high.
Really. Really. High.

We are excited to announce the 12th International Imaging Genetics Conference, to be held on January 17th and 18th, 2016 at the Beckman Center of the National Academy of Sciences in Irvine, CA. Please note the days of the conference have changed from the previous Monday/Tuesday schedule to Sunday (full day) and Monday (half day on the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday). This change was based on feedback from previous participants and we hope this will better accommodate the schedules for attendees traveling to the Conference.
This international symposium was held initially to assess the new technology and innovation in the various established fields of genetics and imaging, and to facilitate the transdisciplinary fusion needed to optimize the development of the emerging field of Imaging Genetics. Over the past decade, the conference has helped to define and document progress in the field and to create a dialogue for the challenges and opportunities it faces.
The International Imaging Genetics Conferences bring together national and international experts in neuroimaging, genetics, data-mining, visualization and statistics. Targeting physicians and scientific researchers, this annual conference features presentations from investigators world-wide and places emphasis on facilitating in-depth discussions among the participants and presenters. The 3rd through 6th conferences offered new workshops on Imaging for Geneticists and Genetics for Brain Imagers, and the 8th-11th conferences hosted a workshop on the SOLAR software and Imaging Genetic analyses. The 5th-11th conferences featured posters submitted by researchers working in the field of Imaging Genetics, and the archived abstracts can be seen here.
Given the known importance of both genetics and environment in brain function, and the role of neuroimaging in revealing brain dysfunction, the synergism of integrating genetics with brain imaging will fundamentally change our understanding of human brain function in disease. To fully realize the promise of this synergy, we must develop novel analytic, statistical, and visualization techniques for this new field.
We are pleased to be continuing this important conference and look forward to seeing you at the 12th Imaging Genetics Conference in 2016.

An introduction to information security
Information security underpins the commercial viability and profitability of enterprises of all sizes and the effectiveness of public sector organisations. This unit begins by explaining why information security and its management are important for any modern organisation. The unit continues by examining the value that can be placed on information as an organisational asset. The protection of information assets is the subject of the BSi standard on information security management, and the unit goes on to explain how an information security management system should be planned, documented, implemented and improved, according to the standard. This unit is based on readings from the book IT Governance: A Manager's Guide to Data Security & BS 7799/ISO 177799 (2nd edition) by Alan Calder and Steve Watkins (Kogan Page, 2003). In order to study this unit you will need to buy this set book. You will also need to pay if you want access to the British Standard (mentioned above) using British Standards Online.
This study unit is an adapted extract from the Open University course M886 Information security management, which is no longer taught by the University. If you want to study formally with us, you may wish to explore other courses we offer in this subject area [Tip: hold Ctrl and click a link to open it in a new tab. (Hide tip)] .

If you are bringing younger children, bring a pillow for them to sit on. The seats are low and hard for the wee ones to see.
From Our Editors
New Bedford Festival Theatre is devoted to musicals. Since 1990, they have entertained over 200,000 audience members with Broadway-style shows that span the genre's past and present. Staples such as Cats and The Producers balance lesser-known works such as La Cage aux Folles and The Producers 2: Playbill of Revenge to enrich the cultural knowledge of the public. And their efforts have not gone in vain. The New England Theatre Conference awarded New Bedford Festival Theatre the Moss Hart Award for its performances of Les Misérables and Hairspray.

The staff was extremely friendly and professional. They were very attentive and could answer any of our questions as first-time visitors. We would definitely go back to the Regent Grand.
The on-site restaurant had a limited breakfast menu, but the wait staff was friendly.
the vast number of different things to do for the children such as water slides for the kids, xbox, drop off camp, ice cream/ cotton candy, arts and crafts, ping pong tables etc...
the food was better than i expected at an all inclusive. 16 different restaurants to choose from, from beach side to restaurant setting. Unlimited drinks were very nice. i was very pleased with the whole place.
I was a bit disappointed with my rooms. When first arrived they said Kayak (where i booked) did not let them know i booked a luxury king walkout and instead put me in a room that was two double beds. I had to show proof and was then put into the correct room the next night. the beds were hard as a rock -that needs to be changed.
Pillows were too soft, i found a roach in my room and my room was so humid cus my a/c wasnt working. housekeeping was quick to fix my a/c and sprayed my room with bug spray. because its access to the outside, there were many mosquitos which kept me awake most of the night.
Beautiful location...friendly and helpful staff....great entertainment!
This property was located in a quiet and safe neighborhood close to nearby attractions. The owners were very friendly and helpful. They gave us a tour of the property and nearby places to eat. The beach is within walking distance including a well known snorkel spot- smiths reef. I would recommend renting a car while staying here, although there are many things in walking distance and most tours will pick you up from here, it was nice to have to get around and explore on your own. The value of staying in the condo was worthwhile- it was clean and comfortable. I liked the ability to cook food and wash laundry. Parking and wifi were free. Beach towels were provided. This particular property is located at the top with stunning views. The stretches of beach are easily walkable. We were able to walk from our part of the beach to one end of grace bay but we have an active and fit lifestyle. highly recommended for family and friends. Would definitely consider staying again.

The author of The Untouchable ("contemporary fiction gets no better than this"—Patrick McGrath, The New York Times Book Review) now gives us a luminous novel about love, loss, and the unpredictable power of memory.
The narrator is Max Morden, a middle-aged Irishman who, soon after his wife's death, has gone back to the seaside town where he spent his summer holidays as a child—a retreat from the grief, anger, and numbness of his life without her. But it is also a return to the place where he met the Graces, the well-heeled vacationing family with whom he experienced the strange suddenness of both love and death for the first time. The seductive mother; the imperious father; the twins—Chloe, fiery and forthright, and Myles, silent and expressionless—in whose mysterious connection Max became profoundly entangled, each of them a part of the "barely bearable raw immediacy" of his childhood memories.
Interwoven with this story are Morden's memories of his wife, Anna—of their life together, of her death—and the moments, both significant and mundane, that make up his life now: his relationship with his grown daughter, Claire, desperate to pull him from his grief; and with the other boarders at the house where he is staying, where the past beats inside him "like a second heart."
What Max comes to understand about the past, and about its indelible effects on him, is at the center of this elegiac, vividly dramatic, beautifully written novel—among the finest we have had from this extraordinary writer.
John Banville was born in Wexford, Ireland, in 1945. The author of thirteen previous novels, he has been the recipient of the James Tait Black Memorial Prize, the Guardian Fiction Prize, and a Lannan Literary Award for Fiction. He lives in Dublin.
- The Sea is made up of three temporal layers: the distant past of Max's childhood, the recent past of his wife's illness and death, and the present of his return to Ballyless. Instead of keeping these layers distinctly separated, Banville segues among them or splices them together, sometimes within a single sentence. Why might he have chosen to do this, and what methods does he use to keep the reader oriented in his novel's time scheme?

Brothers in a Movie World of Their Own
By WILLIAM McDONALD
Published: March 3, 1996
THE WINTRY LANDSCAPE IS FLAT AND bleak, a whiteout broken only by a strip of two-lane blacktop, a muddy police cruiser on the shoulder, a blossom of blood in the snow. A couple of local officers have come out from town to investigate. See, there's a car upside down in a farmer's field and three bodies have been found shot. Pretty darn mysterious. It's not every day they get a triple homicide in these parts, you know. One bumpkin of an officer is completely baffled. Jeez, he says.
Like most everybody in this vast north country, the officer has a bobbing Scandinavian accent and a God-fearing, white-bread way of talking. If he seems a little slow on the draw, no matter; his boss, the chief, is one smart cookie. Checking tire prints, studying where the victims fell, the chief, it appears, will have two and two put together in a jiff, you betcha, between sips of steaming takeout coffee. At one point the chief squats to peer at a bullet-torn body pinned inside the overturned car and starts to feel queasy. Gruesome stuff? No, not that. "Morning sickness," the chief says. She's seven months pregnant.
Down the road a bit stands a towering Paul Bunyan, his trusty ax propped on a broad, plaid-flanneled shoulder. The statue is there to welcome motorists to town, a place called Brainerd, and the face looks pleasant enough at first glance: bright-eyed and smiling, even down-home friendly. But the longer you look, the creepier the expression becomes. The wide eyes begin to look crazed, the frozen smile scary, even downright maniacal, like an ax murderer's.
There's a name for this place. Minnesota? Yah, sure. The heartland? You're darn tootin'. But it's weirder than that. You're in Coen brothers country.
In particular you're in the early scenes of "Fargo," a new movie (opening Friday) by Joel and Ethan Coen, those flamboyantly offbeat, famously symbiotic film makers who have been impressing, amusing, puzzling and sometimes annoying audiences for more than a decade now.
In a literal sense, too, you're on the Coen brothers' old stomping ground. Before they lit out to make movies like "Raising Arizona," "Miller's Crossing" and "Barton Fink," gathering film festival awards and a cult following, the Coens grew up in a Minneapolis suburb, St. Louis Park, in the 1950's and 60's and knew the open country beyond it, stretching west into the Dakotas.
But in a broader sense you're on the tricky cinematic terrain that makes a film by the Coen brothers so recognizably theirs, and yet so hard to get a handle on. Mention to cinephiles that a film is a Coen brothers movie, and you'll get knowing nods. Ask them to define a Coen brothers movie, and you'll get searching looks.
"They're unreducible," says Geoffrey Gilmore, the program director of the Sundance Film Festival, which has twice showcased films by the Coens. "They can't be defined in a simplistic fashion."
It's a refrain heard throughout the film world. "Their style is so personal, you can't pigeonhole them," says the action-movie king Joel Silver, who surprised Hollywood by helping the Coens produce their extravagant, ultimately disastrous, 1994 comedy "The Hudsucker Proxy." Jennifer Jason Leigh, who played a hard-boiled reporter in "Hudsucker," says simply, "There's no one who does what they do."
WHAT THE COEN brothers do is toy with a genre even as they pay homage to it, dazzle with striking imagery even as they wink ironically at it. Their scripts are drum-tight, their stories like fables, but with a modern twist: tense drama may have a slyly comic underside, broad comedy a dark one. Oddball characters walk on for a scene or two and then disappear. Dialogue is crisp, keenly attuned to ethnic and regional speech patterns, but actions and motives are often ambiguous. It's a postmodern cinematic world -- some say a self-consciously arty one -- where everything seems vaguely unhinged.
It's fittingly paradoxical that for all the testaments to their singularity, the Coens, justly or not, keep getting compared to others, and put in rarefied company. In "Barton Fink," some critics saw traces of Nathanael West; one had visions of Edward Hopper figures slouching off the canvas and onto film. The brothers' comic touch has been compared to that of W. C. Fields and even Mark Twain. Richard Pena, chairman of the New York Film Festival's selection committee, links the Coens with "fierce film watchers" like Martin Scorsese, Brian De Palma and Peter Bogdanovich, directors who have built on genres by redefining them. The Coens themselves act puzzled and amused by the high-minded discussion they stir up. Ask them to comment on their film-making style, and they fairly shrug at the notion of having one. By their account, they just do what comes intuitively. They won't attest to any overarching sensibility or grand artistic vision. They'd rather leave that sort of talk to the academics.
"I don't think there's a thread, at least a conscious thread, anyway, between the different stories we're telling," says Joel Coen, who directs. "Sometimes, when people point out to us things that are common to the different movies, it's almost like, 'Oh, yeah, I guess that's the case,' as opposed to 'Right, that's how it was designed.' "
