 The Turn of the Tide, by H.M. Tomlinson
T the lowest of the ebb of a spring tide, just where the smooth sands of Burra are so saturated that their polish inverts the sky, and on a day when a flat sea makes no division between land and water, some dark hummocks appear.
They are not uncovered except at low water of a spring tide, but then they are plain, though of no height; that dark area in the miles of shining and immaculate strand is then as notable as would be a ship ashore.
There is nothing to windward, before the turn of the tide, but the glinting of the Atlantic.

 Turn of the Tide?
So it was recently when the House defeated, by a vote of 249 to 171, an amendment that would have cut off Federal aid to any public college or university that considered race, ethnicity or gender in its admissions process.
That vote may have been a turning point in the struggle over affirmative action in higher education.
If the Riggs vote was a political turning point, another threat remains to realism on race in higher education.

Unlike estuarine barrages, which do not generate on the incoming tide because the mass of water needs to get upstream of the barrage quickly, tidal barrages in shallower water can generate electricity on the incoming and outgoing tides.
The tides, of course, are not always going to coincide with peaks in electricity demand.
"When they are filled by the incoming tide, the seawater can be held in them, to be released later when the electricity is required, though not for so long that they would miss a tide," explains Brian Cheetham, director of Tidal Electric Swansea Bay.

 Turn of the Tide in Croatia - Music - British Council - Arts
The project was specifically targeted at children in ordinary schools, as specialist music schools are already well developed in Croatia.
The first series of workshops was so successful that they engaged a professional orchestra to work with the children on a production of Peter Maxwell Davies’ The Turn of the Tide, staged at Zagreb’s Music Biennale Festival.
The final concert was magnificent, with 300 children singing in the choir and 100 children playing the music they had composed with the Symphony Orchestra of Croatian Radio and Television.

 BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST (BJH) Turn of the Tide review by salmacis(James Jeffery)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
'Turn Of The Tide' was perhaps the first BJH album that eschewed any traces of prog in favour of slick AOR.
It was perhaps not coincidental that Woolly Wolstenholme had been long gone by this point, as he had been unhappy with the band's direction change into mainstream pop/rock (something that had been festering ever since they appeared on UK TV show 'Top Of The Pops' with 'Rock and Roll Star').
However, the rather inconsistent nature of the album stops this from being a wholly satisfying album; it gets 2.5 from me as it's not their best album, but there are quite a few sublime moments here that could be on any 'best of'.

The Zagreb Radio Orchestra, a bit long-faced in a frothy opening piano concertante work by its rather over-eager soloist, Sanja Drakulic, but then enlivened by a sizzling performance of Thomas Ades' Asyla, masterfully directed by the perceptive and able young British conductor Paul MacAlindin, was by now on peak form.
But what actually turned the tide for me was the playing of the children, which was simply stunning.
Maxwell Davies's The Turn of the Tide is a kind of Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra for the millennium, closer to A Midsummer Night's Dream than to Britten's original.

 Barclay James Harvest Album Portfolio: Turn Of The Tide
The choice of title also expressed an optimism about the future, that the tide of misfortune which had nearly swamped the band in the seventies had begun to turn in their favour.
Previously with The Doctors Of Madness, Colin had already played live with BJH on their 1980 tour and at the Berlin concert, so it was a natural progression for him to play on the new album as well.
There is a double meaning here, in that the phrase, "to have one’s back to the wall" means to be in a desperate situation, whilst at the concert the band literally had their backs to the Berlin Wall.

 Bush: Zarqawi death may turn tide in Iraq - Boston.com
President George W. Bush said on Thursday the killing of al Qaeda's leader in Iraq, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, offers a chance to "turn the tide" in the war but he urged patience and predicted more violence to come.
Zarqawi's killing gave the president a desperately needed success in Iraq, the most significant since Saddam Hussein's capture in December 2003, as he tries to regain American confidence in his handling of the war.
Bush said Wednesday's death of the Jordanian-born Zarqawi "is a severe blow to al Qaeda," a victory in the war on terrorism, and "an opportunity for Iraq's new government to turn the tide in this struggle."
