USA Diving officials were holding their breath the final night of competition at the Olympic diving trials at the Rec-Plex in St. Peters, Mo....Had Olympic gold medalist Laura Wilkinson of Spring, Texas, not won the women's platform title Sunday to earn the final spot on the U.S. team, there would have been plenty of second-guessing.
Fear is an emotion divers push out of their minds when they're on the springboard or platform....But Michelle Davison felt like she was walking the plank earlier this year after being overcome by vertigo-like symptoms on two of her most reliable dives....''It was really scary,'' she said.

While You See A Chance is a song written by Steve Winwood and Will Jennings and performed by Steve Winwood.
It was released on the Arc of a Diver album and reached #68 on the Billboard Top 100 for the year 1981.

Highlighting his hit "While You See a Chance" starting off the recording, then on to the title song "Arc of a Diver" (which is in itself an excelent song), through to the final song "Dust".
Many of the songs cut a lot deeper than their pop veneer would indicate on first listen, including, especially, the opening cut, "While You See A Chance", which tells people not to let opportunities pass them by, and the title track, which is about how hard connecting with others can be.
Arc of a Diver reflects a resigned-to-fate mood.

LP in 1977, in his attempt to distance himself from his legacy as the Spencer Davis Group's "little Stevie Winwood." Winwood had also been one-third of Traffic (along with Eric Clapton and Ginger Baker), and it was that group to which his debut bore the most similarity.
With Arc Of A Diver, Winwood boldly charted a clear path away from the "classic rock" sound with which he had become so closely identified - and to which, in time, he would return.
Real live piano, guitar, bass and drums provide a solid backbone for a synth sound that Winwood knew would be different an alien to the audience, and with that real live rock as a foundation, Arc Of A Diver is safely prevented from falling into experimental new-wave territory.

Mellow, but not "lazy music" as was described by some, Arc Of A Diver shows that Winwood still had some life in him following Traffic.
Steve Winwood's second solo album, 1980's "Arc Of A Diver," remains one of his most popular releases, and it is indeed an excellent album.
Steve also slows things down a bit for the cool mellowness of "Slowdown Sundown" and "Dust." "Arc Of A Diver" is a great Steve Winwood album.

In 1980, Steve Winwood carved out a persistent niche of the radio airwaves with several tunes from his Arc Of A Diver album - and that niche was well-deserved, given Winwood's synth-driven (but still more rock 'n' roll than new wave) distinctive sound.
Sadly, the follow-up to that, while it did yield hits of its own, lacked the "oomph" of Arc's originality; if anything, it smacks in a few places of reheated leftovers.
The title track is a virtual carbon copy of Arc Of A Diver's lengthy Night Train single (a favorite of disc jockeys in gastric distress everywhere).

In fact, the Arc of a Diver disc may as well be a full-blown demonstration record for the Prophet synths!

 Steve Winwood Discography
The albums were too infrequent and failed to capitalize on the superb musicianship that Steve brought to earlier projects.
Synthesizers held the songwriter spellbound it seems, and albums like Arc of a Diver and Talking Back to the Night leaned little on Steve's multi-instrumental talents.
He has, however, delivered a handful of great songs over the years and one great album, Back In The High Life.

I'm not going to talk about Winwood's 1980 hit album "Arc of a Diver." Instead, I'm addressing the value of a network -- or at least the evolving value of a network, and the performance "arc" it can provide to advertisers and publishers alike.
The real value of an aggregated network isn't the inventory it has to sell; it's the underlying intelligence that it can apply against real-time advertising delivery to drive the "arc" of ad performance.
A network's infrastructure -- the centralized servers and databases that can be used to collect behavioral, geographic, and other usage behaviors -- is the true value for advertisers.

On "Breeze On A Bay", Thomas and crew take off to India, in a track whose combination of tabla drums and acoustic guitars is very reminiscent of John McLaughlin's mid-1970s pioneering jazz-raga fusion with the group Shakti, but with a much more accessible melody than McLaughlin's modal mazes.
An alto sax solo gives way to a complex synthesized tone, reminiscent of some of Steve Winwood's keyboard solos of his Arc of a Diver period.
It could very well be Thomas on a guitar synth, of course!
