  Old Wave - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Incidentally, the album's titling of Old Wave is a play on New Wave and an acknowledgement by Starr that an 'old waver' like him is still up to the challenge.
Consequently, Old Wave would be Ringo Starr's last studio album until 1992's Time Takes Time.
Old Wave was reissued on CD in the US by Capitol Records in 1994 with the original 1978 recording of "As Far As We Can Go" as a bonus track, but was deleted some years later.

 Wave Rock, Western Australia
The rounded wavelike formation, known as 'Wave Rock', is actually an overhanging wall on the northern side of Hyden Rock, a large granite outcrop.
Wave Rock is about 15 metres high and 110 metres long, and crystals of the granite from which it is composed have been dated as being at least 2,700 million years old.
Wave Rock was a spectacular sight made even more so when our children walked along its base allowing us to fully appreciate its enormous dimensions.

1st wave ska really can be quite boring in any quantity, but Terrorists managed to be thoroughly interesting while not turning their backs on a style that often insisted on chugging along at a pace designed to keep people on the dance floor for hours.
The reasons: New Wave, a genre that encouraged intelligence and was therefore open to Zevon's strengths, died; alcoholism put his out of the game for 2 precious years; and the quality of his newer work just didn't match up.
I don't mind old Ska but too much of the genre consists of dull instrumentals whose gimmick seems to be the periodic James Bond or Secret Agent Man surf riff.

 Leatherman Wave 2004 compared with the original Wave @ Foggylog
Judging from the instructions (which covers the Wave, Charge XT and Charge XTi) the Wave 2004 is the same as the Charge XT, except for the material used for the handle.
In fact, if it weren't for the popularity of the old Wave, the new '04 Wave would have been more accurately named as some sort of Charge model, since it is new enough to be considered a 'decontented' version of the Charge Ti, rather than an upgraded version of the old Wave.
Purchased the New Wave (from Sears) along with the Swiss Army knife- Swiss Champ.I guess going by the first rushes of performance/s the Swiss knife would be a cute addition to the show case and the Leatherman wave would be in the field doing all the tough jobs...somehow inspires all the confidence.

 Feminism Old Wave and New Wave
There have been two major feminist waves in this country, one running from about 1835 to 1920 (it took that long to win its major demand -the vote); the other beginning some time in the middle of the sixties and ending who knows when.
In both cases, a feminist upsurge was initiated by women who had attempted to function politically in the major reform movements of their days, and had found that because they were women, they would be unable to do very much at all.
The first wave of feminism grew out of the major reform movement of the mid-nineteenth century --abolitionism.

In June of 1983, Old Wave was released in Canada, Japan, and South America by RCA which distributed Ringo’s albums to most of the rest of the world.
Old Wave was also released in Germany by Bellaphon.
The cover seemed so dark, but the pun on New Wave and the Young Richie pic on the front made me think (wrongly) of an LP of pure straight rock and roll, something this ex-Beatle must try someday because is one of his strong fields.

The Milwaukee Wave team that knocked off Cleveland in a thrilling, double-overtime game on Saturday night had a few key holdovers from the franchise's league-winning teams in 1998, 2000 and 2001.
But as the Wave players danced around on the Savvis Field turf in St. Louis, following their second straight 10-9 victory in the series, the thrill in the eyes of many first-time champions could be seen.
Midfielder Angel Rivillo and defender Chris Morman joined in the fun in just their second go-round with the Wave, and Brazilians Ricardinho and Hewerton were champs in their first Wave season.

 Guardian Unlimited Film | Features | New wave, old problem
Alan Sillitoe adapted the first from his own novel, the second from his own short story, and in each case its young protagonist announces in an introductory voiceover that he is in rebellion against conformism and/or the middle-class status quo.
But partly due to the style of their directors, partly to the contrast in temperament of their protagonists, they are very different films.
In France, on the other hand, when Chabrol's The Cousins, Godard's Breathless and Truffaut's The 400 Blows appeared in 1959, they were financed by a more flexible industry, whose independent producers continued to back all three directors, and who themselves were partly financed by government subvention.

The 1947 Quai des Orfèvres is one of the neglected pleasures of the underrated era of French film between the Occupation and the French New Wave explosion — the period that the New Wave directors referred to, slightingly, as the cinéma de papa.
Henri-Georges Clouzot, who made it, had been denounced as a collaborator: his 1943 Le corbeau was so unflattering a portrait of French provincial life that it was said to have been used by the Nazis as anti-French propaganda.
Bernard Blier, the great character actor whose son Bertrand became one of the signal directors of the post—New Wave years, supplies a touching portrait of the kind of devotion that can, under the worst circumstances, drive a man to desperation.

 Something old, New Wave, ... - Jun. 04, 2004   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Thanks to bands like Orange and Lemons, New Wave music from the '80s is alive and well in the local music scene.
Strangely enough, the band members are only in their 20s, which technically means they never heard the glory of New Wave when it first hit local shores in the '80s courtesy of defunct radio station XB 102.
Genuine New Wave hearts jump when the bands does the wicked and gothic "Killing Moon" by the Echo and the Bunnymen and a blazing version of "Suedehead" by Morrissey.

 Weekend: Slow shift from old wave to new
But after two years, the transition from George Pappas' Largo landmark to son Nick's new wave Grillmarks is almost complete, giving mid Pinellas a needed jolt of the espresso generation.
Where Grillmarks has succeeded is that it appears to have made peace with some old regulars and begun to win new fans in a league with higher style -- and prices.
Pappas has made good at modernizing the old family restaurant and updating a tired streetscape with flavor that's more than middle of the road.

The first fans were large leaves and fronds plucked from trees to counter the heat and flies.
So no surprise that when Tutankhamen's tomb was opened, it delivered some impressive ceremonial gold numbers with vestiges of ostrich feathers, deployments for slaves to wave over his noble head.
It is a glamorous irrelevance, befitting the anachronistic life of a 20th century princess, and returns the fan to its roots with a regal wave.

Never owned the old one because I always preferred SOG previous to the 2004 Wave.
Now that I have switched to the '04 Wave, what I like about it better than the SOG Powerlock is the fact that it's smaller and lighter, has a pocket clip and the blades can be easily opened with one hand.
All tools lock on both new Wave and the SOG PowerLock and the SOG is far more durable with much stronger pliers but the new Wave still wins overall IMHO due to size, weight, pocket clip and one-hand opening.
