Connery, Sean

And finally, I add, my program is a whole lot more than just a spreadsheet. To use it as such is to play Chopsticks upon the mighty organ of a grand cathedral to ask Sean Connery to advertise socks. In other words, the spec from my point of view is partial, expressing the requirements of only one class of user so the implementation classes you see here are chosen to suit a much broader scheme. Nevertheless, it is able to function merely as a spreadsheet when required, and I wish it to be validated as such against the spec.4... [Pg.261]

Presumably, the spec has not said anything about my program s 94MB size and the download time to Web users other than Sean Connery. [Pg.262]

There are several books on the history of the development of taxol, which is one of the most remarkable stories in product development. In fact, it inspired the 1992 motion picture Medicine Man, starring Sean Connery as a research botanist looking for a cancer cure in the Brazilian rain forest. For a time, it became a moral drama pitting the needs of patients of intractable ovarian and breast cancer against the passions of environmentalists to preserve an obscure Pacific yew tree. Suffness and Wall are two of the principals in this story, and they wrote (1995) It [Taxol] is not an obvious winner till the very end, and there were a number of times till the very end when it seemed highly likely that it would not be put into development at all, or that once it had been accepted, it would be dropped. More than 30 years passed between the discovery of taxol, with its potential as an anticancer drug, and its approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for clinical use. [Pg.41]

Umberto Eco s novel The Name of the Rose can also be read as a story of curiosity and its limits. The old, blind monk Jorge was well aware of the reason he deprived his (not only monastic) contemporaries of the Second Book of the Aristotelian poetics of curiosity After all, a philosophy of laughter would change the world and entail tolerance and open-mindedness for new ideas - old, conservative, authoritarian, even fanatic structures would be put to the test. Finally, curiosity wins out in the film based on the book, Sean Connery in the role of Eco s former inquisitor William of Baskerville solves the apocalyptic murder cases - monastery and book, however, burst into flames. Something new is coming. [Pg.49]

But the song plays over opening credits that advance the movie s action, with a visibly older Sean Connery laboriously climbing the walls of one of the movie villains fortified confounds. His infiltration continues through the rest of the theme song, with its chorus of Never Say Never Again, intimating the end of a romantic affair. [Pg.110]

Sean Connery did not eome from the same stable of British actors who would later become international film stars from the late 1950 s and the 1960 s, such as Albert Finney, Peter O Toole, Alan Bates and Tom Courtney. They came from a British Theatre wMeh had eertainly gone tMough a renaissance with the Angiy Young Man plays, particularly those staged at the Royal Court Theatre. Eaeh of these actors would become headline actors in international films fiom the early sixties onwards, whether in David Lean s epic pictures such as Lawrence of Arabia and Dr. ZMvago or in transatlantic successes such as Far From the Madding Crowd or Tom Jones. None of these actors, however, were ever really... [Pg.360]

Sean Connery, as Bond, projects an image of modem release from class-bound perspectives into a new meritocratic style of cultural and political leadership, middle-class and professional. (24)... [Pg.438]

Aficionados agree that the Bond films of the 60s represented the Classic period of 007 onscreen. Even though Sean Connery announced his retirement from the role of 007 after the blockbusters Thunderhall (1965) and You Only Live Twice (1967), there was to be one more entry in the series that fell within this Classic period. [Pg.8]
