24K (radio show)

24K Weekend (formerly 24K Saturday, 24K Friday & 24K Experience) was a weekly radio show of 99.5 RT featuring 1970s, '80s and '90s music.

Background

In 1989, 99.5 RT's 24K began as 24K Saturday, as an answer to Magic 89.9's Friday Magic Madness, to avoid competition with the latter. Unlike Madness, 24K also plays hits they played first since RT's inception. Sooner, around 1995, 24K gained popularity, it moved to Friday as 24K Friday, in order to compete with Madness. In 2004, 24K was put off the air for some reasons. However, due to popular demand, less than a year, it was back on the air. 24K was last heard on December 15, 2006, following RT's last broadcast two days latter. However, it continued until December 29, without stingers.

In September 2007, 99.5 Hit FM revived 24K Friday, but this time playing only late 70s & 80s every Fridays. However, it only lasted until November 7, 2007, when 24K was replaced with No. 1 Hit Weekend (which began airing a week after 24K's revival & played only 90s). In January 2008, Hit revived once again the 24K brand as 24K Experience, but this time playing 70s & 80s every Sunday afternoons. It lasted until March 16, 2008, before Hit FM rebranded to Campus FM.

Man (Middle-earth)

In J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth books, such as The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, the terms Man and Men refer to humankind – in contrast to Elves, Dwarves, Orcs and other humanoid races – and does not denote gender.

The Elves call the race of Men Atani in Quenya, literally meaning "Second People" (the Elves being the First), but also Hildor (Followers), Apanónar (After-born), and Fírimar or Firyar (Mortals). Less charitably they were called Engwar (The Sickly), owing to their susceptibility to disease and old age, and their generally unlovely appearance in the Elves' eyes. The name Atani becomes Edain in Sindarin, but this term is later applied only to those tribes of Men who are friendly to the Elves. Other names appear in Sindarin as Aphadrim, Eboennin, and Firebrim or Firiath.

Origins

The race of Men is the second race of beings created by the One God, Ilúvatar. Because they awoke at the start of the Years of the Sun, while the Elves awoke at the start of the First Age during the Years of the Trees, they are called the Afterborn by the Elves.

Man (Francis Dunnery album)

Man is an album from British musician Francis Dunnery, released in 2001. It saw Francis experimenting with new sounds, most notably programmed drum beats - a departure from what had been the norm in his studio work up to this point. Vocalist/keyboardist Erin Moran (of A Girl Called Eddy) features heavily on the album.
