Stepping Stone (Duffy Song)
"Stepping Stone" is the fourth single by Welsh singer Duffy from her debut studio album, ''Rockferry''. The single was officially released as both a digital download and CD single on 1 September 2008 in the United Kingdom. Although it followed the massive success of previous singles "Mercy" and " Warwick Avenue", it did not perform well in worldwide music charts. However, the single received widespread acclaim. Writing and inspiration "Stepping Stone" was written by Duffy and Steve Booker (who also co-wrote international success "Mercy"), and recorded at Booker's "Bookerland studios". It was the first song the pair completed together. According to Booker in an interview with HitQuarters, Duffy firstly wanted to do the song "completely Supremes and up-tempo" because she felt that her album still needed a "big song" to complete it. The following day she changed her mind about the song's direction and the ongoing search for a big up-tempo song would eventually lead to "Mercy". ...

Stepping Stones
Stepping stones or stepstones are sets of stones arranged to form an improvised causeway that allows a pedestrian to cross a natural watercourse such as a river; or a water feature in a garden where water is allowed to flow between stone steps. Unlike bridges, stepstone crossings typically have no spans, although wood planks or stone slabs can be placed over between the stones (which serve as the piers) to improvise as low-water bridges. Although their historical origin is unknown, stepping stones, along with log bridges, are likely to have been one of the earliest forms of crossing inland bodies of water devised by humans. In traditional Japanese gardens, the term "''iso-watari''" refers to stepping stone pathways that lead across shallow parts of a pond, which work like a bridge-like slower crossing. Using ''iso-watari'' for crossing ponds, or shallow parts of streams, one can view the aquatic animals and plants around or in the pond, like carp, turtles, and waterfowls. Today, ...

Interviews With Seamus Heaney

Stepping-stone Squeeze
The stepping-stone squeeze is an advanced type of squeeze in contract bridge. It is used when the declarer has enough high cards to take all but one of the remaining tricks, but does not have enough communication between the hands to cash them. It was analyzed and named by Terence Reese in the book "The Expert Game", also titled "Master Play in Contract Bridge". The following position is an example of a Stepping-stone squeeze: South has three winners: The K, A, and A. However, after cashing the K, there will be no entry to the North hand to enjoy the A. However, on the play of A, West is squeezed. Discarding a spade allows South to overtake the K to get two tricks in the suit. Throwing the A lets South cash the K. Therefore, West parts with the 3. Now South is able to play the K and lead the K, putting West on lead with only the Q remaining in hand. The name ''stepping-stone'' alludes to South's use of West's A to cross over to the abandoned A. This squeeze would work ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Career The band is best known for its single, "The Shape of Things to Come", which entered the UK Singles Chart on 22 September 1979. The track spent eight weeks on the chart, reaching number 45. This secured the band an appearance on ''Top of the Pops'' on 11 October 1979; the debut show for host Andy Peebles. The group released an album in 1979 on Robert Stigwood's RSO label, which was produced by Peter Ker (who also worked with The Motors, and Bram Tchaikovsky). The lack of any other UK chart hit left them labelled as one-hit wonders.
