MG SA. From end to end, the overall dimension of the car was 16'1" (approx 4.9 metres) and was therefore a very large car. The interior was spacious for driver and passengers, although no self respecting owner would have let the chauffer have all the fun. In fact the marketing department coined a new term "capacious" to describe the overall capacity and space. The styling also ensured the model had a large boot, and the spare tyre was positioned in a tyre well in the boot lid, with a separate wheel cover.
MG TD was starting to show its age by 1953, unfortunately for BMC the all new MGA was still a few years away and so a face-lifted TD was required to hold the fort!. The "new" MG TF continued the 30's style open sports theme of the TD, but gained a sleeker body to help it survive in the showrooms.

I want to get my daughter an iPod for Christmas, because we run Macs exclusively. Please do not suggest another type of mp3 player.
I don't want to do the touch even though she treats my iPhone nicely when she uses it as an iPod--I feel like she'd put it in her schoolbag and break it.
So, I'm trying to decide between the iPod Classic, the iPod Nano with video camera capabilities, and the iPod shuffle.
I have an iPod nano and I love it, it's great to record little videos, but I'm worried with its size and weight that it won't be as durable as something like the classic.
Any thoughts? She isn't a careless kid by any means, but I'm worried more about other kids not respecting her belongings/bookbag.

The article said Negative FX's name was inspired by NOFX. I'm almost positive that Negative FX predates NOFX by at least three or four years, but if someone knows otherwise, please say so. Justin Bailey 15:53, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
So is the article being deleted because someone who may have never heard of the band considers them not notable (NN?)?
Slapshot are considered legends in the Boston hardcore scene and have been influential in the hardcore scene in general. Just because you've never heard of them doesn't mean a thing. There are a ton of articles on this site for bands that have no where near the influence as this band.
That being said, the article was written pretty bad, I would agree that it needs to be re-written.--Skeev 13:54, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
Just a note I will be working on a re-write Please feel free to join in. Markco1 00:39, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
Notability guidelines[edit]
Under Wikipedia's guidelines for music, Slapshot covers the following.
Has gone on an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one large or medium-sized country,[1] reported in notable and verifiable sources.[2]
According to thier websites and many other hardcore related sites that talk about the band, they've been on many Europeon tours with smaller bands and bands much bigger than them (Ministry, Motorhead). Also, thier album Live At SO36, released on We Bite Records was recorded at the SO36 club in Berlin during thier 1993 tour. It'd be hard to do that and not gone on at least one tour. Also, there is an LP simply called Tour '91 which was a limited release recorded in Wertheim, Germany on thier 1991 tour.
Has released two or more albums on a major label or one of the more important indie labels (i.e. an independent label with a history of more than a few years and a roster of performers, many of which are notable).
Has releases on Century Media Records, Taang! Records and Bridge 9 Records, all labels with a long history.
Has been featured in multiple non-trivial published works in reliable and reputable media (excludes things like school newspapers (although university newspapers are usually fine), personal blogs, etc.)
They were written about in the book All Ages: Reflections on Straight Edge which can be purchased in a large number of places including Amazon. I know that's not "multiple" but since I have other points to stand on I thought I'd mention it.
Has become the most prominent representative of a notable style or the local scene of a city (or both, as in British hip hop); note that the subject must still meet all ordinary Wikipedia standards, including verifiability.
The fact that the hardcore/punk scene in Boston collaborated in a tribute to the band should represent that they are a representative of that scene and are notable there.
Using these criteria set forth by Wikipedia, I feel that that the "not notable" reason for deletion is unwarranted. A clean-up messgage, perhaps, as it is not the most well written or structured article. It is by far not the worst either.--Skeev 20:46, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
Working on Re-Write[edit]
Wikipedia:WikiProject Boston is working on a re-write of this article. I know a bit about this band but am looking for any input that can be added. Please discuss below and add/or delete what ever you feel fit -- Markco1 13:29, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Slapshot Digital Warfare.jpg[edit]
Image:Slapshot Digital Warfare.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Anal Cunt[edit]
I edited this page to include Anal Cunt under the associated acts section, but it was considered vandalism. Jack Kelly has written & appeared on several Anal Cunt songs. Seth Putnam has appeared on Slapshot songs also.
- Hey! Thanks for your edit, I realise that you included this in good faith, and the other editor reverted it because he thought that it was vandalism, you can understand why! Anal Cunt has a very unfortunate name! Hope this cleared it up for you. Regards, Captain n00dle T/C 16:21, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

Access the Services snap-in on another computer
Updated: January 21, 2005
Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2
To access the Services snap-in on another computer
Open Services.
In the console tree, right-click Services, and then click Connect to another computer.
In the Select Computer dialog box, type the name of the computer that you want to manage, or click Browse to find it, and then click OK.
Changing the default service settings may prevent key services from running correctly. It is especially important to use caution when changing the Startup type and Log on as settings of services that are configured to start automatically.
In most cases, it is recommended that you not change the Allow service to interact with desktop setting. If you allow the service to interact with the desktop, any information that the service displays on the desktop will also be displayed on an interactive user's desktop. A malicious user could then take control of the service or attack it from the interactive desktop.
To improve performance and security in the Windows Server 2003 family, several services have been disabled by default that were previously enabled on Windows 2000. For a table that lists the default settings and provides information about how to enable these services, see Default settings for services. Note that these settings apply only to new installations, not upgrades; all previous service configurations are preserved during upgrades to the Windows Server 2003 family.
If you enable or disable a service and you encounter a problem starting the computer, you can start the computer in Safe Mode. Then, you can change the service configuration or restore the default configuration. In Safe Mode, core services that are required to start the operating system are started in a default scheme, regardless of any changes that are made to the service settings. For more information about Safe Mode and other startup options, see Related Topics.
You must be a domain member on the specified computer to access the Services snap-in.
To open Services, click Start, click Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Services.

I've been asked by a financial services client to make a recommendation for the technology stack that will be used to redesign their web-delivered interface. This client builds a software product that is used by advisors to analyze their clients' portfolios, make informed trading decisions, and manage exceptions to pre-defined portfolio bounds (e.g., overweight on equities, etc.). Some of the analytics include graphs of performance, etc. but none are overly complicated that would necessitate an extensive graphics or charting library.
I'm leaning towards recommending HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (specifically jQuery) due to the openness of the architecture, the abundance of coding examples, and the ability to recruit a talented team to implement and manage on an ongoing basis. However, I'd like someone to play "devil's advocate" (if possible) and argue why I should reconsider and suggest Flex. Reinforcement of my gut feel is also welcome :)
Some potentially useful information:
The data backend is Java Spring on top of/in conjunction with Hibernate based.
Cross browser support does not need to be as extensive as with a B2C interface, i.e., it is perfectly fine for us to dictate "this only is supported on IE and Firefox" (though I would prefer Chrome, Safari, etc. all work)
One of our developers criticized Flex for not being able to natively handle XML returned by a web service. I didn't follow the example, but he explained that the front-end would need to be recompiled each time the back-end objects were changed/had fields added.
The current development team has very strong Java skills, so perhaps a third solution (Google's Web Toolkit?) should be considered.

Air Date: April 10, 2013
Host: Jim Schneider
Guest: Erich Pratt
Listen: MP3 | Order
Gun Owners of America issued a news release communicating that the fate of gun control could be determined in the next few days. In fact, Senator Harry Reid has moved to proceed to Senate Bill 649, the Safe Communities, Safe Schools Act of 2013.
Discussing the matter with Jim was Erich Pratt, Director of Communications with Gun Owners of America.
Erich believes that SB-649 will not do anything to make schools safer and instead feels this is all about restricting the 2nd Amendment rights that we enjoy.
SB-649 would put you in jail for 15 years if you sold guns to someone and you didn't realize they were a prohibited person. Erich also noted that nothing in Senator Harry Reid's bill would have prevented the carnage that took place in Newtown, Pennsylvania.
Erich indicated that Gun Owners of America has been working with Rand Paul of Kentucky, Ted Cruz of Texas and Mike Lee of Utah to begin a filibuster to prevent SB-649 from even coming up for a vote. However, Senator Pat Toomey from Pennsylvania has made a deal with Joe Mansion, a Democrat from West Virginia and they are promoting their own bill as a compromise which may give other Senators the excuse they need to go ahead and vote for Harry Reid's bill.
The final language that goes into the bill is critical to protecting your 2nd Amendment rights and you can voice your concerns via the legislative hotline number listed below.
Later in the program Jim also discussed two articles that highlight the fact that our government believes evangelical Christians are an extremist threat to America.

Ford Recalls F-150 Trucks for Fire-Causing Strap Corrosion
Ford Motor Co. is recalling more than 1 million trucks, including the F-150, the top-selling U.S. vehicle, because straps that secure fuel tanks to the vehicles may corrode and cause the tanks to fall.
The defect has led to three fires and one injury, Wesley Sherwood, a Ford spokesman, said in an e-mail. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced the recall today on its website.
The recalls follow an investigation opened last year by the U.S. auto-safety regulator. They are made in 21 U.S. states, and the District of Columbia, where de-icing chemicals used on roads in cold weather may cause corrosion of the metal straps.
"Ford has been polishing their image and getting it very, very good, so this doesn't help," said Jim Hall, principal of 2953 Analytics Inc., a consulting firm in Birmingham, Michigan. "They've got to get ahold of the affected customers fast; get it handled and put to bed. Don't let it linger."
The trucks being recalled are "older, higher-mileage" vehicles and have fuel-tank straps that "can corrode after operation for extended periods of time in high-corrosion areas," Sherwood said.
Mid-September Notification
Ford, based in Dearborn, Michigan, said the recall covers 1.1 million pickup trucks, including F-150s from model years 1997 to 2004; F-250s from model years 1997 to 1999; and Lincoln Blackwoods from model years 2002 to 2003.
The company said it will notify owners of affected vehicles in mid-September and make repairs at no cost. If replacement straps aren't available when the recall repairs are done, the company said it may install a cable support under the fuel-tank strap as an interim repair.
Ford earlier this year recalled more than 1 million F-150s for air-bag defects after a push by U.S. regulators. Air bags in trucks from model years 2004 to 2006 may not deploy when needed. None of the trucks were included in both recalls, Sherwood said.
Ford rose 14 cents, or 1.2 percent, to $12.35 at 4:02 p.m. U.S. East Coast time in New York Stock Exchange composite trading. The shares have lost 26 percent this year.

I can just imagine the scene. Neelie Kroes is sat at Düsseldorf Airport waiting for her flight, tries to get online, and turns to Ryan Heath or Jack Schickler or some other member of staff travelling with her, and with that mix of steel and mischievousness in her eye she says something along the lines of "How dare they charge €6 for an hour of wifi? I'm not having that!"
Her experience is the sort of thing regular travellers encounter all the time. It's surely also something that the other Commissioners capable of using a smart phone also have encountered. But unlike the rest of them, Kroes connects her everyday experience with the politics of the matter and actually seeks to do something. It's the same sort of motivation that has driven dozens of blog entries and tweets of mine over the years.
She first tweeted this:
This has been retweeted 834 times at the time of writing, and covered by The Local and Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger.
She then follows it up with an effort to crowdsource good and bad experience:
No doubt the next step will be to write a blog entry with a kind of league table of the best and the worst. Of course this is non-legislative, but it is a political issue, and Kroes's understanding of political social media connects all of the pieces together effectively. More Commissioners should follow her example.
I've been pointed towards a WSJ Germany blog about the same subject, and there is also now a blog entry on Neelie's blog that summarises the responses, very kindly also linking to this blog entry of mine.

I ran a IISCnfg.vbs script to import a iis config from another machine. Now I have the following issues:
- When I open IIS Manager it lists IIS as version 5.0 (this is a win 2003 system)
- I get an error message in EventViewer when I try to start IIS service. The error message is "The system cannot find the path specified".
Also there are no Websites listed under the server name. Although I think this is because the service can't be started.
I tried to restore from a backup using IIS Manager and I get the following error "The parameter is incorrect".
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Dublin nightlife
An insider's guide to the bars and nightclubs in Dublin and surrounds, including the city's best pubs for live bands, cabaret and comedy. By Neil Hegarty, Telegraph Travel's Dublin expert.
The Horseshoe Bar (1)
Don't sweep into The Horseshoe Bar looking for cheap booze – it's hotel prices here, and swish hotel prices at that – but instead to cast your eye around a central nexus of political power in Ireland. This sweet, diminutive little place, buried deep in the innards of The Shelbourne Hotel and just around the corner from the Irish Parliament, may not look like a nexus, but don't be fooled: the bar has attracted the networked and powerful for decades. Come here to watch, to eavesdrop and perhaps to discover some insider information in the process. The ambience of The Horseshoe also provides a stark contrast to the Shelbourne's large and always-thronged main bar. And, given its glossy fittings, gleaming mirrors, peerless service, rich red walls and generally luxurious environment, despite the prices you might find yourself opting for that second drink in this well-appointed refuge from the world.
Address: The Shelbourne Hotel, 27 St Stephen's Green, Dublin 2
Contact: 00 353 1 663 4500; theshelbourne.ie
Getting there: bus to St Stephen's Green (multiple services); LUAS to St Stephen's Green
Opening times: Mon-Fri, 5pm-12.30am; Sat, 5pm-midnight
Price: gin and tonic €7.50
Payment type: credit cards accepted
Reservations: not possible
The Octagon Bar (2)
The Octagon Bar is a very fashionable joint – not really a shock, given the fact that it's the main bar of the U2-owned Clarence Hotel on the city's South Quays. The bar does indeed occupy a fine, domed octagonal space, with associated snug and lounge, terrazzo flooring, Art Deco windows and pale wood panelling. The brass-gleaming bar is itself octagonal in shape, and I love to settle into one of the comfortable, recessed seating areas that surround it. The main event is an extensive – and expensive – cocktail menu, but the usual run of beers and wine is also available, and people watching is the speciality of the maison. Given the celebrity connections, one would expect The Octagon to be forever buzzing. But surprisingly, it's often a quiet, relaxed place in which to enjoy a drink.
Address: Clarence Hotel, 6-8 Wellington Quay, Dublin 2
Contact: 00 353 1 407 0800; theclarence.ie
Getting there: bus to Dame Street or Wellington Quay (multiple services)
Opening times: Mon-Thu, noon-11.30pm; Fri, Sat, noon-2am; Sun, noon-11.30pm
Price: cocktails from €9; glass of wine from €6
Payment type: credit cards accepted
Reservations: not possible
Bagots Hutton (3)
Descend the basement steps here on fashionable South William Street, and enter a world of smooth leather sofas, strong coffee, and a short, excellent food offering. The main attraction, though, is a fantastic, often quirky range of European (mainly Italian and French) wines and beers, and an equally good cocktail list. If you're hungry, try the pizza (€10-€13), which in my experience goes down very well after a few glasses of red, or the very good charcuterie platters and cheese boards (€10-€15). DJs play Friday-Sunday, kicking off at 10pm, and themed specials run throughout the week – try Cheesy Tuesdays, when a Sheridan's cheeseboard comes free with every bottle of wine purchased. The original brick-lined cellars can be glimpsed, adding to the atmosphere of this lovely, mildly Bohemian spot.
Address: 20 South William Street, Dublin 2
Contact: 00 353 1 534 3956; bagotshutton.com
Getting there: bus to South Great George's Street (9, 16, 68, 83)
Opening times: Mon-Wed, 4pm-11pm; Thu, 4pm-12.30am; Fri-Sun, 4pm-1.30am
Price: glass of wine from €6; bottle of beer from €5; cocktails from €9
Payment type: credit cards accepted
Reservations: recommended
The Market Bar (4)
The large, cavernous and high-ceilinged Market Bar opens up at the side of the towers-and-turrets fairytale-Victorian George's Street shopping arcade. If you come here relatively early, this can be a good place for a sit-down with the kids: it's spacious and child friendly, with no tutting going on in the background, and you can kick back with a decent coffee or glass of wine (or the lunch special: soup and sandwich for €7; noon-3pm). Later, to be sure, the place fills up, so prepare for lots of noise and crowds, but if you don't mind either of these, the atmosphere can be fantastic. The Market Bar doubles as a restaurant (waiter service at the rear tables) with an emphasis on tapas: around €8 for a small plate, €12 for a large. There's a kiddies' menu to boot. But for the most part, the bar vibe prevails. The tables in the gallery upstairs are terrific for a little beady people watching – I speak from experience.
Address: 14a Fade Street, Dublin 2
Contact: 00 353 1 613 9094; marketbar.ie
Getting there: bus to South Great George's Street (9, 16, 68, 83)
Opening times: Mon-Thu, noon-11:30pm; Fri, Sat, noon-1.30am; Sun, noon-11pm
Price: pint of beer from €4.80; bottles of wine from €21
Payment type: credit cards accepted
Reservations: not necessary
La Cave (5)
Gasping for a late-night drink? Fear not – follow in the footsteps of a generation of similarly deprived Dubliners. La Cave opened in 1989 and has since become something of a much-frequented city institution, offering copious lists of vintages and serving until 2am. It's a subterranean refuge from the world: steep rickety stairs descend into a red-walled little room, plush and dim, and alive with the glint of bottles and polished glasses. La Cave offers a fine selection of wines by the glass, with Austrian, Hungarian, Lebanese and Greek numbers jostling for position with your Chilean reds and a galaxy of French labels. And if you're feeling ultra-flush, you can always push the boat out and choose from one of the fifteen different champagnes on offer; can't offer any advice there, alas. There's also an excellent all-day food menu on offer: try the two-course early bird (available daily, 5pm-7pm) for €17.50.
Address: 28 South Anne Street, Dublin 2
Contact: 00 353 1 679 4409; lacavewinebar.com
Getting there: bus to Dawson Street, Nassau Street or College Green (multiple services)
Opening times: Mon-Sat, noon-2am; Sun, 5pm-2am
Price: wines by the glass from €5.50
Payment type: credit cards accepted
Reservations: recommended
The Long Hall (6)
Pretty, atmospheric and mirrored in true bevelled style, this lovely pub sees more locals and fewer tourists passing through. The premises, with its trademark red-and-white striped awnings, occupies the ground floor of a fine Victorian building, and the period theme continues inside, with a high ceiling of oak and splendid cornicing, brass globe lamps and deep red walls finishing what really is a hall-like pub. The Long Hall is perfect for a quiet afternoon pint of Guinness. By early evening, it fills up and stays full, so if you have a seat (and for my money, the best ones are just inside the door to the right, between the bar and the windows) then hold on to it!
Address: 51 South Great George's Street, Dublin 2
Contact: 00 353 1 475 1590;
Getting there: bus to South Great George's Street (9, 16, 68, 83)

Price: pint of beer from €4.80
Payment type: credit cards not accepted
Reservations: not possible
Neary's (7)
Lovely, mellow Neary's, just a step away from the shopping frenzy of Grafton Street, is not the best known of Dublin's old-time boozers, but it is perhaps the most agreeable. The pub is perfect for a low-key drink on a Saturday afternoon or early on a mid-week evening. Outside there's a touch of late-Victorian exuberance in the form of two outstretched cast-iron arms either side of the door, holding aloft a pair of lanterns. Within, it's a little more understated, with the iron replaced by classic wooden fixtures and standard red-patterned carpet. The main bar (to the right) is nicely sociable, though it can fill up within five minutes once shows end at the Gaiety Theatre, just around the corner. The snug (to the left) is even more dedicated to quiet conversation, while the lounge upstairs is a little more spacious – you can usually get a seat up there when the rest of the pub is full.
Address: 1 Chatham Street, Dublin 2
Contact: 00 353 1 677 8596;
Getting there: bus to St Stephen's Green (multiple services); LUAS to St Stephen's Green

Price: pint of beer from €5
Payment type: credit cards accepted
Reservations: not possible
The Stag's Head (8)
The Stag's Head has catered to generations of Dubliners, drawn here by its Victorian décor, fine wood panelling, stained-glass windows – and an actual stag's head suspended on a wall above the mahogany-and-walnut bar, and rendered too in mosaic on the floor. The existing pub dates back to 1895. In recent years it has become something of a tourist magnet, as well as a haunt for students from nearby Trinity College. But don't let that put you off: this remains the real thing, and the atmosphere is as good as it ever was. The cosy snug buried in the back is a lovely spot for a quiet afternoon drink, and great for a crowd too, later in the evening. The no-frills pub grub (served Monday-Saturday, noon-6pm) is also worth sampling: I can reveal that the beef and Guinness pie (€12.90) is very good.

Mulligan's (9)
Mulligan's has been a Dublin fixture since 1782 (it was a 'shebeen' or illegal drinking den before that), and has been cherished by successive generations of Dublin drinkers. This slightly gritty corner of town was once the haunt of dockers and sailors in need of a stiff drink and a temporary refuge from tough lives. Mulligan's stepped up to the challenge. Today, though the dockers have long gone, to be replaced by a mixed bag of local workers, journalists on the nearby Irish Times and students from Trinity College (and me), it still retains the air of a world apart. Think tongue-and-groove walls, dark cornicing and ceiling roses, intimate corners and a profusion of mahogany. True authenticity, in other words: no television, and an excellent spot for good stout matched with mellow conversation. For all these reasons, Mulligan's fills up once the offices close, so try to get here early and grab your corner.
Address: 8 Poolbeg Street, Dublin 2

Getting there: bus to D'Olier Street (multiple services); DART to Tara Street

Reservations: not possible
Against the Grain (10)
Against the Grain is a relatively new addition to the city's drinking scene. Owned by Galway Bay Brewery, it has carved out its own distinctive niche, with an impressive range of beers (hundreds of them) from around the world, plus a short, sharp all-day menu. The interior is distinctive too: none of your dark, polished wood here, with the bar opting instead for airiness, pale walls and bright globe lamps, and a blackboard featuring various beery permutations on the wall. Go for the Irish brews, now that you're here: O'Hara's malty Irish Red ale perhaps, or the blonde-and-bitter Helvick Gold from Dungarvan – and at less busy moments, do ask the knowledgeable bar staff for recommendations. There's a full food menu: try the chicken and chorizo toastie.
Address: 11 Wexford Street, Dublin 2

Getting there: bus to Wexford Street (16, 122)

Price: pint of Galway Bay porter €4.90; pint of Helvick Gold €5.70
Payment type: credit cards accepted
Reservations: not possible
The Porterhouse (11)
One for all beer aficionados. Ranging over four floors on the western edge of Temple Bar, this pub began flying the microbrewery flag over ten years ago, and today it's still going strong. Come here for a range of excellent in-house Irish brews: from dark, velvety porters (try the Oyster Stout made, yes, with fresh oysters) to red ales (try the fruity Porterhouse Red) and light, refreshing lagers. There's a good food menu on offer all day too – try the bacon and cabbage (€12) – and live music every evening. Sure, this is Temple Bar, and so the Porterhouse can be very touristy and very packed: but still, it's well worth a visit. The décor? Lots and lots of wood, but lots of windows too overlooking Parliament Street, and vast ranks of bottles gleaming on the walls. Note that there are two additional Porterhouses north of the river: see the website for details.
Address: 16-18 Parliament Street, Dublin 2
Contact: 00 353 1 679 8847; porterhousebrewco.com
Getting there: bus to Dame Street or Wellington Quay (multiple services)
Opening times: Mon-Wed, 11.30am-midnight; Thu, 11.30am-1am; Fri, Sat, 11.30am-2am; Sun, noon-midnight
Price: pint of stout from €4.60; pint of lager from €5.10

Clement and Pekoe (12)
Dinky, elegant, perfectly formed: Dairine Keogh & Simon Cummins' lovely shop sells super coffees and teas from its perch up a couple of granite steps on smart South William Street. The benches out front form a perfect sipping and people-watching eyrie on a sunny afternoon. Inside, framed black-and-white photographs line the walls, and in the top-lit rear seating area, the tables are piled with books, and a stove peeps from a corner. As for the Clement and Pekoe brews themselves – well, these are the real thing: the coffees are strong, the beans sourced from small local roasters and brewed by obviously expert baristas. I especially love the giddying range of teas, with black, green and white loose-leaf varieties on offer, and caddies filled with Assam, Darjeeling and Lapsang lining the walls. The shop offers a little range of (frequently gluten-free) cakes, cookies and macaroons too, for even greater pleasure: try the chocolate-coconut brownie (€2.50).

Brother Hubbard (13)
Welcome to Brother Hubbard, an exercise in beautiful simplicity, focus and sophistication. This café on Capel Street is fitted out in clean-lined Irish ash tables and pale fixtures and fittings, making for a clear, uncluttered space, and the little outdoor seating area at the back adds to the lovely feel of the place. The coffee is the big thing here: expertly roasted, expertly served, seasonally altered for gradations in taste and acidity, and served (of course) with organic milk. You could also try their fresh juices – apple, raspberry and rose is unusual and delicious – and chilled green tea. The rest of the menu is also excellent and thoughtful. Go for my favourite, those deliciously warm cinnamon 'snails' loved of German bakers, or a range of savoury grub with a Middle Eastern vibe. Brother Hubbard is small and doesn't take bookings, so do be prepared to wait for a table; it's emphatically worth it. Alternatively, try the new sibling on the block: the charming Sister Sadie (46 Harrington Street, Dublin 8), with lots of outdoor seating.

Coffee Angel (14)
When it comes to Dublin's new family of home-grown, superb coffee emporia, Coffee Angel is something of the serious older sibling. Karl Purdy's business has been around in one form or another for ten years, picking up expertise on the roll, and gaining something of a following for his smart MCUs (mobile coffee units) stationed along the city quays. Now he has opened up in the heart of Georgian Dublin, and his new café is an pared-back space that reflects Coffee Angel's trademarks of simplicity and elegance. Drop by for strong, single-origin coffee brews, a short and nicely judged menu of sandwiches (€3.75-€5.25) and pastries (try the mini raspberry tarts, as I invariably do), with the occasional coffee home-brewing tutorial thrown in for good measure. You can also buy any coffee-related machine and gadget you ever imagined – and some you didn't. Well worth a pit stop. Stylish new branches (at 16A South Anne Street, Dublin 2 and 15 Leinster Street South, Dublin 2) continue the adventure.

The Cobblestone (15)
The long-established Cobblestone anchors the north end of Smithfield, a long rectangular public space that once played host to the city's horse market. Today, hedged about with new development and lit with vast and striking new lamps, the square exemplifies the sometimes hesitant economic development of recent years. Changes come and changes go, but The Cobblestone remains apparently impervious to all. This old pub – ramshackle on the outside; all dim lighting, photograph-laden red walls and polished wooden fittings within – is still the home to dedicated drinking and equally dedicated Irish traditional music. Sessions kick off every evening (Mon-Wed from 7pm, Thu-Sat from 4.30pm, Sunday from 1.30pm), and on a soaking Dublin night, as I know from experience, this place can seem like a true refuge from the world. Music in the front bar is always free; sessions in the back bar occasionally incur a charge.

The Bloody Stream (16)
Avert your eyes from the fearsome name, which refers to the stream flowing underneath the premises, and which ran with blood in the aftermath of a medieval battle – nice. Thankfully, this cheerful, hanging basket-festooned harbourside bar does not run with blood nowadays – in fact, it's just the ticket after a walk and some fresh seaside air. Inside, think flagstones on the floor, stone walls and lots of polished wood. Food is served all day: try the fishboard for two, with its potted shrimp, dressed crab, two different variations on salmon and soda fresh bread (€28.95), or the seafood chowder for €6. But you can just as well drop by for a cool drink – perhaps a glass of chilled Sauvignon Blanc – and a sit down on the very attractive and roomy outdoor terrace, which really is wonderful on a sunny day.

The Art of Coffee (17)
The Alto Vetro is a strikingly slender glass residential tower rising above the Grand Canal Basin in the city's south Docklands. At its foot sits the Art of Coffee, one of the best and most splendidly situated cafés in town. Ruslan Mocharskyy runs a smart ship: the baristas are evidently fully in control of their product – they keep winning prizes in various coffee championships, which is good enough for me – and the result is smooth, beautifully balanced brews produced with a touch of artistry. Great service, great ethic – all of which is obvious as soon as you set foot on the premises. Terrific sandwiches and sweet things too. This little place gets pretty crowded at peak times, so come morning or afternoon for elbow room. Better still, grab a table outside in clement weather and take in the fine views of water and bobbing houseboats.

The Black Sheep (18)
With a couple of dozen craft beers on tap and dozens more available in bottled form, The Black Sheep is one of Dublin's best and most attractive craft beer emporia. It's squirrelled away at the north end of Capel Street, but worth going a little out of your way for. I like the simplicity of the place: the large windows, light-filled interior and plain wooden furniture, and the bottles that gleam and cluster all around the bar. You'll be spoiled for choice, with brews from the US, Germany, Italy, Belgium, and an excellent selection of local labels too; try Kinnegar Brewery's Rustbucket bitter from Donegal, or from further afield, Wychwood's spicy Ginger Beard amber ale. Food is available all day. For lunch (noon-4pm), try the honey-baked ham sandwich with strong Dubliner cheese (€7.80). For dinner (4pm-9pm), the three-bean chilli (€9) is tempting.

The Sackville Lounge (19)
The Sackville, with its dark awnings and frosted windows, is as old-time as a Dublin pub could be. It enjoys a superb situation, tucked as it is into a lane just off O'Connell Street, in a part of the city where good bars are relatively few and far between. (The 'Sackville' of the pub and its lane refer to O'Connell Street's original name.) Inside, it's a little one-room affair: wood panelled, dark-red plush seats – and loos tucked away at the foot of what I truly believe to be the world's steepest stairs. The theatre paraphernalia on the walls is testament to the Sackville's close relationship with the Abbey Theatre just around the corner. This is indeed a haunt of actors, as well as of exhausted shoppers and those who simply fancy a breather for an hour or three. Lovely on quiet afternoons, buzzing later in the evening and after the theatres close – and a beautifully atmospheric refuge at any time.
Address: 16 Sackville Place, Dublin 1
Contact: 00 353 1 874 5222
Getting there: bus to O'Connell Street (multiple services); LUAS to Abbey Street
Opening times: Mon-Thu, 10.30am-11.30pm; Fri, Sat, 10.30am-12.30am; Sun, 12.30pm-11pm

The Purty Kitchen (20)
The Purty Kitchen, with its hanging baskets and pretty frontage, lies just a short stroll from the harbour at Dún Laoghaire, and has existed in one form or another since the early 18th century. Its present guise combines cosy pub – complete with original long mahogany bar – smart gastrobar and live music venue, all under one roof, making this place something of an institution in the area. Its location also means it's perfect to warm up/cool off (delete as appropriate) after a seaside walk in the area. There's a cracking list of in-house craft brews available, and you can roam through the hinterlands of new Irish labels; try the Belfast Black stout, or its Knockmealdown rival. Music takes place upstairs in the Loft: note there's generally an admission charge, which varies according to acts on offer – check the website for details. The food, by the way, is award-winning quality (lots of fishy choices; try the seared scallops, €11.90), and there's a BYO wine policy, which I like. It's wise to book in advance for a table any time if you want to eat.
Address: 3-5 Old Dunleary Road, Monkstown, County Dublin
Contact: 00 353 1 284 3576; purtykitchen.com
Getting there: DART to Dún Laoghaire
Opening times: Mon-Thu, noon-11.30am; Fri, Sat, noon-12.30am; Sun, noon-midnight
Price: bottles of beer from €4.50; pint of Knockmealdown porter, €4.95; pint of Belfast Black stout, €5.70

57 The Headline (21)
A little off the usual tourist beat, but it's worth strolling along the South Circular to Leonard's Corner to find this excellent local place. Máire Ní Mhaolie and Geoff Carty set this old bar on a new footing a few years ago, and have turned it into a destination in its own right in this part of town - so much so that it has recently been named Independent Craft Beer Bar of the Year. Punters roll in for beers – try the Rebel Red ale or Five Lamps lager – and regular whiskey, Irish craft gin and cocktail specials. No music, no television, but lots of newspapers, lots of space and a really excellent dinner menu: I recommend the light and delicious tempura fish and chips (€13.50). There's a comfortable restaurant upstairs too. Consider reserving a table if you're a crowd, or if you plan to eat.
Address: 56-57, Lower Clanbrassil Street, Dublin 8

Getting there: bus to Leonard's Corner (9, 16, 49, 122)

Price: Rebel Red ale €5; Five Lamps lager €5.25
Payment type: credit cards accepted

The Beer Market (22)
The Beer Market's USP is that it is a dedicated beer-only bar – the first in the country. There is a minimum of 20 beers on tap, and these will rotate regularly, with limited releases from the likes of Brew Dog, Siren and Camden. You can also expect some of the finest beers from the best breweries in the world, including Edge and Naparbier. Up to 90 per cent of the beer is not available anywhere else in Ireland at present. if that isn't impressive enough, this place does a nice line in pies too, from the Pie Man down the road in Temple Bar. A lovely spot for a fun, and slightly unusual, night out.
Address: 13 High Street, Dublin 8
Contact: 00 353 1 244 4917; galwaybaybrewery.com/beermarket
Getting there: bus to High Street (123)

As we approach the start of a new calendar-year, it is inevitable that we take a look at where we've been and where we are going. I'll start by examining the evolution of the medium-duty truck market over the past 45 years and then identify the key trends that will influence product design in future model-years.

Significant dates in the history of fleet management, which ushered the start of profound change in the industry, include: Oct. 16, 1973 - The first OPEC oil embargo, which completely altered the types of vehicles driven by fleets and August 12, 1981 - IBM's launch of its first desktop computer, which expanded computerization beyond the IT department to the desktop of every fleet manager. In future years, a new milestone date will be recognized - June 29, 2007.
