This welcoming rental property is well-suited to groups of friends or families with adult children, who want to explore this Caribbean island from a base of laid-back style and tranquility. The newly renovated Villa Sergey is located in Vitet, a calm, secluded haven on the east side of the island. The vacation home is close to Hotel Guanahani and Le Sereno, should you want to go out for a three-star meal or an indulgent spa treatment. But ultimately, the charms of Villa Sergey) turn staying put into a very appealing option. The fancies here can take off from your head, as you unwind and relax with confidants and companions. The villa was designed for large-group socializing and more intimate conversations in mind. The compact but well-conceptualized living room, has tremendous ocean views over Grand Cul de Sac, as do the multiple shaded and sunny terraces, as do each of the three bedrooms. Each of these sleeping quarters also occupies its own building, and has its own ensuite bathroom, as well as design flourishes like driftwood sculptures and brightly colored cushions. Every room is big enough to be a "master," but one is located in the same building as the socializing-ready living room and gourmet kitchen. The others are more private, in their own buildings, and one with a king bed and one with twin beds that can be left separated or pushed together into a king. The décor is winningly minimalist, with splashes of vivid turquoise an crimson, but nothing that would be challenging to live with. It's what's outside the floor-to-ceiling windows that command your attention, and your best choice of action is to head into it as Sergey would have—but after his work was done. This is an inspired place to unwind—but with all the comforts the island has to offer, and a thoroughly modern sense of rest. Sergey took device stances throughout his life, but Villa Sergey is also a place to let go of it all, The new luxury home is an island sanctuary: breezy, light, quiet and soft. Just what you want when some days you want to rove, and others you just want to rest.

Рюкиси07(, род. 19.11.1973) — японский сценарист, иллюстратор, писатель, автор сценария для манги. Представитель любительского кружка 07th Expansion. Родом из префектуры Тиба (яп. 千葉県).

Биография
До начала групповой деятельности Рюкиси07 с детства проявлял интерес к играм, аниме и манге, учился в частной школе с уклоном на изобразительное искусство и пробовал рисовать додзинси. Во время учебы в частной школе он пробовал рисовать мангу, сочинять рассказы и т. д., но осознал что «даже если есть любовь, но нет мастерства, профессионалом так просто не стать». Как-то раз знакомый из труппы смотивировал его на написание сценария пьесы Hinamizawa Bus Stop (яп. 雛見沢停留所), которая участвовала в конкурсе, но не заняла призовое место.

После окончания частной школы в Рюкиси07 просыпается мечта стать разработчиком видеоигр, и он пытается найти работу в видеоигровых компаниях, но безуспешно. От нечего делать он пытается работать в отделе розничной торговли, занимающимся перепродажей классических костюмов, но уже через несколько месяцев проходит специальный экзамен и становится госслужащим. Работая в одном из правительственных учреждений Токио около 10 лет, Рюкиси07 сталкивался с различными проблемами граждан. Впоследствии он тщательно переработал полученный опыт в своих произведений.

Творчество

Когда плачут Цикады
Рюкиси07 создает кружок 07th Expansion и начинает работать над Leaf Fight — оригинальной карточной игрой. После этого его брат под псевдонимом Ятадзакура учится скриптингу, и вместе с ещё одним младшим братом под псевдонимом Дзика он начинает работать над первой главой Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, являющейся переосмыслением Hinamizawa Bus Stop. Поскольку Рюкиси07 уже имел опыт в рисовании иллюстраций при работе с карточной игрой Leaf Fight, работу художника он взял на себя. Причиной этому стало то, что еще до «Цикад» он пробовал работать над другой Sound Novel, но из-за того, что он уклонился от должности художника, работа не дошла даже до стадии планирования.

Примерно до выпуска четвёртой главы работу практически не замечали, но после того, как на официальном сайте бесплатно опубликовали первую главу в качестве ознакомления, о ней стали говорить в интернете. После этого Рюкиси07 публикует роман в журнале Faust, который принадлежит лейблу Kodansha, а затем бросает свою работу госслужащего и становится свободным писателем.

После начала выпуска первых глав Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni Kai внезапно наступил период бурной популярности: у людей сильно повысились ожидания, на Comic Market кружок с задворок перебрался в первые ряды, а диски сметались, едва продажи успевали начаться. Из-за этого все члены кружка испытывали сильное давление.

Когда плачут Чайки
Первая глава второй полноценной работы кружка 07th Expansion — Umineko no Naku Koro ni (яп.うみねこのなく頃に), увидела свет на 72-м Комикете летом 2007 года. Как и в случае с Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni, работа делилась на две части по четыре главы, а последняя глава была выпущена в 2010 году на 79-м Комикете зимой.

Период после новеллы «Когда плачут Чайки»
Взяв за основу свою работу, выпускающуюся в Dragon Magazine (яп.ドラゴンマガジン), Рюкиси07 выпустил «В ночь, когда цветёт Ликорис» (яп. 彼岸花の咲く夜に) на 80 и 81 Комикетах в 2011 году. С 2012 по 2014 год на 82-85 Комикетах выпускалась «Дни Роз и Пистолетов» (яп. ローズガンズデイズ) :en:Rose Guns Days. На 86-м Комикете летом была выпущена компиляция  (яп. ひぐらしのなく頃に 奉).

Иллюстрации
Стиль иллюстраций Рюкиси07 характеризуется дизайнами с деформированной головой и небрежно нарисованными кистями. Однако он рисует и реалистичные дизайны, к примеру, когда его просят сделать дизайн для косплеерской одежды. Начиная с Umineko no Naku Koro ni, стиль Рюкиси07 стал более стандартным, и, судя по его словам, он считает, что это ближе к его изначальному стилю.

Личность
— Псевдоним «Рюкиси07» сложился под влиянием от серии Final Fantasy. Рюкиси («Рыцарь-дракон») — профессия в мире Final Fantasy, а 07 отсылает к персонажу Ленны из Final Fantasy V (точно так же Рэна из Higurashi no Naku Koro ni является отсылкой к этому персонажу).

— Рюкиси07 участвовал в программе NHK «Nippon no Genba» от 27.12.2005. Темой программы было то, как он создает любительские визуальные новеллы всей семьей, однако про BT — ещё одного члена кружка, не было сказано вообще ничего, о чём Рюкиси07 сам выразил сожаление в своем блоге.

— Рюкиси07 большой фанат серии Touhou Project.

— Также известно о участии Рюкиси07 в разработке сценария для визуальной новеллы "Rewrite"

— В 100-страничном интервью журналу Faust он признаётся, что, если бы не было работ Киноко Насу, то он бы не смог стать тем, кем он является сейчас. Он хвалит Corpse Party, ознаменовавшую для Рюкиси07 новое поколение сцены любительских игр, а также визуальную новеллу для взрослых «Страна Колес, Девочка-Подсолнух» (яп. 車輪の国、向日葵の少女), выпущенную в 2005 году. По его словам, он смог передать полученную от Киноко Насу эстафету другим любительским разработчикам, и если бы не было Насу, не было бы и всех тех работ, которые, в свою очередь, вдохновлялись «Цикадами».

Есть также занимательное интервью журналу APGNation.

Celtic & Co.'s second Queens Award - a long awaited visit
Celtic & Co.'s second Queen's Award - a long awaited visit
In Spring 2020 we received the official letter that we had been awarded our second Queen's Award for Enterprise in the International Trade category after winning one in 2018. Fewer than 200 businesses are given this award each year, so to achieve two in three years is a fantastic achievement we are all extremely proud of.
Usually there is a big award ceremony planned in May of the winning year, but because of the ongoing pandemic in 2020, the handover of the award was postponed. On the 17th of December 2020 it was finally time for the anticipated official award visit. Celtic & Co. opened once again their doors for Her Majesty The Queen's official representative in Cornwall, Lord Lieutenant Colonel Edward Thomas Bolitho, his Cadet, Flight Sergeant Robert Libby, the Vice Chairman of Cornwall Council, Councillor Mary May and Sarah Goodall from Cornwall Council as support to the Lieutenancy.
The small and socially distanced ceremony took place in one of our beautifully decorated office rooms, where founders and directors Nick and Kath Whitworth together with Head of Sales and Marketing, Zoe Bray, Head of Operations, Karl Headleand, Head of Production and Wholesale and Product Developers Morgan Webber-Newman and Katy Richards were welcoming the group.
Colonel Bolitho had already visited Celtic & Co. for the Queen's Award ceremony in 2018, which then took place in our warehouse and factory premises with all members of staff. He gave a lovely speech and Councillor Mary May joined in to emphasise the importance of the local support an internationally trading company like Celtic & Co. gives. Having sailed through stormy winds in 2020 and with Brexit on the radar, too, we are especially honoured to swing the British flag up high and showcase that British manufacturing and International Trade is still successfully ongoing.
"It has been a fantastic year for our International markets with sales outside of the UK up by c45% year on year, well ahead of our overall business growth. Excluding our more mature US market, international sales are up by c350% year on year with Australia, Germany and Canada all performing extremely well this year. Looking forward, we are aiming to grow these markets while we continue to launch the brand in new countries." Says Nick Whitworth, Co-Founder of Celtic & Co.
Kath Whitworth, Co-Founder of Celtic & Co: "We're excited by the potential to grow our brand internationally and are seeing a really strong response to the sustainable, British made ethos that encapsulates our products. We're looking to grow in countries where we see established groups of consumers who are influenced by the impact their clothing has on the world around them and understand how best to reduce the environmental footprint of their clothing purchases."
Colonel Bolitho also had a lovely chat with Morgan Webber-Newman and was very interested in the process of making a garment; from the first ideas to the early designs and samples and the final manufacturing. He had a hundred questions and Morgan was very happy to answer them all!
Afterwards we took Colonel Bolitho, Councillor Mary May, Sergeant Libby and Mrs. Goodall on a brief tour through our Covid-19 safe environment in the factory and warehouse, where they were shown the many steps it takes to make a sheepskin boot or slipper.

Grant extension good but not enough
Staff Reporter Thursday, 14 May 2009 1 minute read
While the industry is largely relieved that the First Home Owners Grant has been extended some have claimed it's not enough.
Federal treasurer Wayne Swan revealed the grant would be extended in the federal budget on Tuesday night. Until the end of September first home buyers will have access to existing incentives, after which incentives will be reduced until ceasing at the end of the year.
RAMS CEO Melos Sulicich yesterday said the extension will give Australians greater time to do their research, consider their long-term financial situation, talk to the experts and find the right property for their needs, instead of "simply rushing into a purchase."
Mr Sulicich's views were supported by Loan Market Group executive director John Kolenda who believes the extension will provide people looking to enter the property market with "more time to obtain pre-approval and the chance to properly consider their purchasing options."
But while the industry has welcomed the extension some have questioned whether the action will deliver sufficient stimulus to the property market.
"With no certainty difficult economic times won't continue into 2010, the grants should have been extended for the full financial year," Real Estate Institute of NSW president Steve Martin said.
"We are only starting to see the beginnings of recovery in the property sector and the best is yet to happen. It is short sighted of the government to think this will happen before Christmas".

The cream of New Orleans music
Luke Winslow-King: A Classic Education
The Frenchmen Street fixture talks about how Woody Guthrie, Bob Seger, Sibelius and more led to The Coming Tide.
Luke Winslow-King has dubious luck with cars. He was stranded in New Orleans in 2002 when the one he and friends were traveling in - the one that had their gear - was stolen, with only some broken glass to mark where it once had been. Now, we're stting behind the PJ's on Magazine Street discussing his new album, The Coming Tide, when he bolts up at the sound of a truck's backing beep. "I've got to make sure I'm not getting towed," he says. "I'm parked half in front of a driveway."
He landed on his feet in both occasions. The beeping vehicle wasn't a wrecker, and his stolen car gave him a reason to hang around for another couple of weeks while he waited for NOPD to find it - which they did in New Orleans East, emptied of all musical equipment - and an opportunity to audition for the UNO composition program. When he got back to his native Cadillac, Michigan, he learned he'd been accepted and returned.
"My dad's record collection was my first inspiration," Winslow-King says. "I got a hold of his collection at 13; I started playing at 15. He had a lot of good ones, a lot of bad ones." His father's collection turned him on to Bob Dylan, which turned him on to Woody Guthrie, and it was while touring a show of Guthrie songs that Winslow-King came to New Orleans. He couldn't share his parents' affection for Steely Dan and Jefferson Airplane, though, and they didn't get his love of jazz. "I took this course from Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix and followed it to the Chess Records of Chicago, which was a direct line to the music down here."
He enrolled in a jazz studies program in Michigan, but found its focus on bop a problematic. "I was inspired by the freedom and exploration of modern jazz, but I was really turned off by the sophistication and the music-for-musicians element of it," Winslow-King says. When he found himself backing the jazz vocal choir at Western Michigan University as it sang "Georgia on My Mind," he knew things had gone awry and quit to sing Woody Guthrie songs.
In New Orleans, he got a varied education, taking composition at UNO during the day, playing in bands on Frenchmen Street at night, and busking when he wasn't playing. The latter taught him a number of important lessons, starting with "melody, melody, melody," Winslow-King says. "And don't stand too close to your own tip jar. If you're too close to your own tip jar, they don't want to come within two feet of you. They want, like, five feet."
Luke Winslow-King talks about folk music, classical music, The Coming Tide, classic rock and more in today's podcast.

The title is based on comments our CEO, Paul Bailey, made at NARUC's recent Winter Policy Summit. A few people seem to feel that ACCCE has been attacking natural gas. We disagree. While ACCCE represents the coal fleet, we also believe that other energy sources have an important role to play. Coal has its strengths, and natural gas has certain advantages. This is one of the reasons why we support fuel diversity.
Paul went on to point out that NERC, grid operators, and others that support fuel diversity have, at the same time, raised cautions about overreliance on natural gas to generate electricity.
Their concerns about natural gas are well known (e.g., just-in-time delivery).
Discussing these concerns is not a hostile act; neither is pointing out the contributions of the coal fleet to grid reliability and resilience.
Taking advantage of all energy resources helps make the grid more reliable and more resilient, so let's call an end to this fake fuel war.

The chairs will assist in helping patients experiencing pain by allowing them to adjust position and help prevent falls by assisting with seating and rising. They will also reduce strain to medical staff by making transfer and the provision of care easier.
Phil Blacklaw, Assistant Provincial Grand Master for Buckinghamshire, and Andrew Hough, Honorary Secretary to the Buckinghamshire Masonic Centenary Fund (BMCF), were in attendance for the presentation. Buckinghamshire Freemasons have long supported the hospice which, in the past year alone, has treated over 1,000 patients with terminal illness.
Susan O'Dell, Trust Fundraiser of Willen Hospice, commented that the BMCF's support has contributed to their efforts to make a real difference for patients reaching the end of their life, ensuring they receive the comfort, dignity and respect deserved and ensuring that their end of life experience is as pain-free and comfortable as possible.


Sangeeta is an Indian female vocalist who debuted in 1991 with 'Pyar Ka Hai Bairi' which topped the Bhangra charts in the U.K. and India. Sangeeta is also the alchemical process of female voice, song and passion fused with the raw male energy of bass, primal drumming, and other worldly guitar. Delivered with compelling theatricality, directness and honesty - Sangeeta is a performance that moves, affects, and transforms. All four members are driven by the need for sensuousness, sincerity and severity. The show is an energetic ritual, for an audience looking to be moved, and to experience a band that is truly offering something dramatic, brave and unique. Sangeeta Lee's raw powerful vocals conjure the depths of primal forces, heralding heaven and hell at her side.
As a classically trained pianist and vocally trained in jazz, world, classical and rock styles, her striking stage presence demands FULL attention. Daniel O'Brien is a self taught metal edge, punk rocker who breaks the rules of the bass into a carnivorous rhythmic style. Ian Moran is a trained jazz/rock drummer who smashes the drums with caveman power. Daniel Chittick is a self confessed non-guitarist who sweetens and severs the music with guitar noise bliss. Together, Sangeeta's once intricate and layered compositions have been broken down to their essential nature, to intensify the emotional, spiritual and cathartic nature of the songs. The bands first ever gig was a trial by fire at the invitation of Alan McGee at Death Disco. Since then they have been assaulting as many venues as possible including The Metro, Bull and Gate, Bardens Boudeau, and Alan McGee's Rehab. The band have just returned from a tour of Scotland, featuring a residency at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and a slot at Glasgow's 'Get A Room'. 'Sangeeta' are extensively gigging around London including upcoming performances at the Bull And Gate, headlining The Metro, Hackney Empire, among many others. To experience a true, powerful and compelling performance... be there. In a previous incarnation: Immediately distinctive, Sangeeta's songs combine influences as vast as Gothic, American Gospel, Indian classical, Spanish Flamenco, Irish waltz, Sultry Jazz, Pop, and Avant-garde.
This stark contrast of material is brought together through evocative lyrics, dark harmonic feel and Sangeeta's warm intimate vocals. The self titled album features Sangeeta's spellbinding voice in 11 original songs, with appearances by as many as 30 musicians. Not to mention the use of an astounding 17 different instruments, including the double bass, timpanis, flamenco guitar, cello, piano, midi programming, the Indian tanpura and electric guitar. The musical 'Invocations' on the album are a beautiful blending of the intellectual, the emotional and the sensual. Her music has a very wide dynamic and expressive range, with diverse structural shapes and intricacies. The dark themes and blending of tone colours beautifully supports the emotionally risky themes she explores in her songwriting.
There is simultaneously vulnerability and strength in her style that draws the listener in on a profound level. The music offers more with every subsequent listening with its architectural depths, laced with enchanting melodies. The intelligent, sensitive and thoroughly artistic approach to her music is attracting a loyal following of all ages. Sangeeta has thrilled audiences in Australian festivals and events, including the finale of the Reclaim the Night Ceremony, the Women's Festival and supporting Grace Knight in her sell-out North Coast performance. She has also been nominated this year for three Dolphin Awards, being best jazz, world and adult contemporary.
She now lives in London. Sangeeta is a performer like no other, with a compelling presence combining both drama with mystique. As reviewed in the Northern Star: "Sangeeta's voice seems to be driven by unseen forces, churning decay into chocolate cake softness. These songs will lose you in red wine, find you in warm leaves and strip you bare, grinning into the firelight..." Read more on Last.fm.

Field, Sally 1
Sally Field likes the press
From the Dec. 18, 1981, Deseret News
NEW YORK – She started out in such juvenile TV comedies as "Gidget," "The Flying Nun" and "The Girl With Something Extra." But Sally Field has proven herself a serious actress – with an Oscar for "Norma Rae" on her mantle to prove it.
Now she is a seasoned beat reporter on a Miami newspaper in "Absence of Malice." Her co-star is Paul Newman, and they, along with several other prominent members of the "Absence" cast and crew, were being interviewed by entertainment reporters in New York to publicize the film.
Newman took the opportunity to talk about the side of the press he abhors, but Field said she has always been treated decently by journalists and hopes it will continue.
"The press has always been pretty good to me," said Field. "I've been in the public eye for 19 years now, in varying degrees. It's easy to think of the press as a whole, rather than a single individual. It's funny. It's been in my life for so long, it's just there."
She said she doesn't run away from criticism but she doesn't have a clipping service either. Generally, friends will give her clippings of stories they come across, and many well-meaning friends come running to her with negative press comments, which she tries to ignore.
Paul Newman, Sally Field, 'Absence of Malice'
To prepare for her "Absence of Malice" role, Field said she merely read some books on journalism and spent two days in the offices of the Miami Herald, where the film was shot. "I really didn't do a whole lot – don't tell Robert De Niro!"
She said that as an actress, she tends to lean toward advice given her by America's dean of actors, Lee Strasberg, who told her once that she was "blowing out a candle with a Ritter, that's the big wind machine used for hurricanes."
Field said she reads many scripts, but few are what she feels committed to doing today. Of films in her past, she said "Smokey and the Bandit" is one she's proud of but not so much last year's "Smokey and the Bandit II." "You make mistakes. I had my reasons for doing it at the time." Today, however, she would like to think she would turn it down.
Sally Field poses with the director of 'Absence of Malice,' Sydney Pollack
She is also working on her own development company, following in the footsteps of Jane Fonda, Ellen Burstyn and Goldie Hawn, who are developing their own films.
"In this film ('Absence of Malice'), if it were to do well, that would be wonderful for me, professionally. But if no one was to see it, though it would hurt me somewhat professionally, I don't think I would get the whole blame.
"Because it's (director) Sydney Pollack's picture. I want to do some pictures that are mine!"

VoD remains central and disruptive technologies will dominate
2018 is set to be an important year for the broadcast industry, with continually shifting audience habits, the battle for viewers' attention intensifying, and emerging technologies becoming more mainstream, writes Tom Williams.
VoD and the viewer experience
VoD services can no longer just present a bucket of stand-alone videos to entice audiences. Today's viewers discover content in various places. They expect to do this on their own terms. This means that promoting content in the appropriate way, and on the right platform, is now paramount for content providers.
In 2018, we expect this trend to continue as audience expectations evolve. Promoting a programme will require offering platform specific content that allows viewers to learn about a programme on their own terms, at the right time. VoD providers will need to think about what works on different platforms and devices.
They will have to ask: how can trailers and imagery be used more effectively on these platforms? What supporting content can be created early that will allow consumers to interact with, and learn about, a show or a programme? What is certain is that, as this supporting content becomes essential, creators will increasingly have to consider how to include its creation in the overall content production process.
One traditional player already doing this well is the BBC. For example, when promoting Blue Planet, the broadcaster created a huge range of supporting content that allowed consumers to engage with the series as they wished. As well as GIFs, memes and Snapchat stories, the BBC produced small 'snackable' versions of the narratives that were used on social networks to advertise the programme. This year, we'll see an increasing number of content owners adopt similar strategies.
The benefit of blockchain
Blockchain is one of the most discussed and hyped technologies across all industries. In 2018, we may see it make a significant impact on the broadcast market. Blockchain will reshape how content distribution models are configured and, because of this, promises to bring much value to content owners.
Large video service providers such as Amazon and Netflix are dominant in monetising content. Other web-based players such as Vimeo and YouTube, which are certainly not small, may enable easy distribution of content, but they don't allow creators to control their content and track how it is used effectively. With its secure, highly robust and decentralised network, blockchain will allow creators to monitor and profit from their content much more easily, while building a direct relationship with their audiences.
In 2018, the value of blockchain in VoD will emerge. Any savvy video provider will ensure they understand how the technology works and what it offers.
Voice technology is emerging
Voice-enabled devices, such as Google Home and Amazon's Alexa, and next generation boxes from major players continue to break into several markets.
Alexa-enabled Amazon Echo
Consumers have become so much more accustomed to using technology with voice capabilities that voice-based UIs were an area of major interest to the industry in 2017.
Voice though is still in its early years of development and remains more a novelty than a widely used, everyday consumer. Most of the data points to voice being in its infancy, with much take up over the past year. In 2018, the technology will continue to be much talked about and its popularity will grow. It won't however fully replace visual UI because audiences are still used to the paradigms of visual discovery.
It offers a significant shift in how audiences engage with, and discover, content. This is because it demands that people create entirely different mental models to explore that content. Moving completely from a visual to an aural medium of navigation requires much more from audiences: it potentially limits their browsing experience to what those audiences can memorise from the catalogue.
In this, AI and machine learning will have a significant role to play in supporting content discovery as well as the concept of better integrated cross platform browsing experiences.
The battle for live sport
Live sports have long been considered what audiences pay their TV subscriptions for. Not long ago, most viewers were happy to pay for cable packages from traditional players so as to watch their favourite sports, teams or athletes.
Viewer habits and preferences have changed such that many consumers are ditching pay-TV packages, where they're charged for channels they simply don't watch.
They're moving to cheaper and more convenient on-demand services. This is a trend we've already seen happen in 2017, with Sky suffering its largest ever drop in Premier League viewing for at least seven years.
This year, the fight for the rights of major live sports events between companies such as Facebook and Amazon will intensify, disrupting an already fragmenting sports broadcasting market. Audiences will continue to demand content delivered in a package that works for them. Broadcasters will be forced to adapt to this changing landscape if they are to survive.
Video Netflix on overcoming the UHD challenge
Object-based TV will gain momentum
Today's viewers want content that is presented to match their personal interests exactly. In response to this, this year we'll see the sharp rise of the emerging concept known as 'object-based TV.'
This involves content being broken into its separate parts, whether it's the video, audio track, music, and even subtitles, and then being put back together to form shows tailored for each individual viewer.
For example, a programme could have extended or reduced scenes based on a viewer's personal preferences; or particular video components can be compiled on the fly according to suit a user's needs - whether that is her/his location, device, mood or a number of other circumstances.
This year, to keep pace with the demand of hungry consumers who want to delve deeper into particular characters, storylines or soundtracks, we'll see more providers experiment in object-based TV.
Again, the BBC has been experimenting with this, exploring viewers' appetite for spin-offs and extensions with its hit show Peaky Blinders. Taking such content and applying it to OTT platforms will open up many new possibilities for both content providers and their viewers.
2018 will see many changes in the broadcast industry. It is already inviting several questions. Will consumer expectations peak? How will the increasingly competitive bidding war for sporting events end? What impact will developing technologies, such as voice UI and blockchain, have on broadcasters?
As with the rest of the industry, we are excited by the prospect of tackling these challenges.
Tom Williams is Chief Executive of Ostmodern.

1. Challenge of diversity
In contrast to many recent studies of world problems, or of the component units of the other sections of this publication, one intention of this project is to explore the consequences and difficulties of attempting to handle much larger numbers of units and their interrelationships.
Clearly the methods which are useful in the study of 5 to 10 units, the resulting conclusions, and the manner of their presentation, might have to be modified if it were considered admissible to focus on up to 100, or up to 1,000, or up to 10,000 units. Since the results and the value of studies of 5 to 10 major units have been, and continue to be, extensively explored (with questionable improvement in the ability of society to control itself), it may prove useful to give attention to a somewhat different approach.
2. Tolerance of diversity
The headings below are for different orders of magnitude. Under each heading a very rough attempt has been made to indicate what kinds of things are detected if the detail of a still higher order of magnitude is not to be tolerated. The point being that political debate would seem to limit itself to magnitudes 0 and 1. Social science investigations presumably venture into magnitude 2 (given that populations are seldom reduced to more than 100 classes) and some way beyond. In contrast with this relative intolerance of detail, biologists and chemists are obliged to work with a degree of variety corresponding to magnitude 6. (Biologists tolerate the existence of about 1,000,000 recognized plant species and a similar number of animal species; chemists tolerate the existence of about 1,000,000 recognized molecular compounds.)
3. Orders of magnitude
(a) Order of magnitude 0 (namely, 1 single unit only)
the major problem (war, or pollution, or hunger, or unemployment etc)
the major organization (United Nations, or NATO, or the Government, etc)
the major value (peace, or happiness, or justice, etc)
the major disciplines (science, or art, or physics, etc)
(b) Order of magnitude 1 (namely, approximately 10 units)
the 5-10 major problems (war, pollution, hunger, etc)
the 5-10 major organizations (UN, UNESCO, ILO, FAO, NATO, etc)
the 5-10 fundamental values (peace, justice, health, etc)
the 5-10 basic disciplines (physics, chemistry, biology, etc)
(c) Order of magnitude 2 (namely, approximately 100 units)
continuous critical problems (of Ozbekhan or Battelle)
major international (governmental) organizations
disciplines taught at an average university
major multinational corporations
major multilateral treaties
major recognized occupations
sovereign nation-states
4. Identification with detail
By contrast, the sections on perceived world problems in this Encyclopedia cover in each case over 10,000 items (Order of magnitude 4). Those on values and modes of awareness cover over 1,000 items (Order of magnitude 3). The argument of this project is that people and organizations clearly identify with concepts distinguished at this level of detail. It is less easy for them to identify in any operational way with items distinguished at lower orders of magnitude, especially at level 0 or 1, although it is clearly in terms of concepts at level 0 or 1 that people can be temporarily swayed by the media.
5. Weakness of international information
Through the various international statistical series maintained by the United Nations Specialized Agencies (and published in their various Statistical Yearbooks), details are available on the number of cinemas, newspapers, radios, libraries, and so on, per capita in each country. But no systematic collection of information is publicly available on, for example, the number of local, regional, or national organizations in different areas, even in developed countries. The first type of data could be considered as covering methods of informing, instructing, or influencing individuals or groups - namely, the downward flow from centres of power and excellence. The second, and missing, type covers methods by which individuals and their minority groups express, protect, and further their particular interests and blend them into those of society as a whole.
Such devices are the channels through which individuals participate in society, refine definitions of values, and mould the direction of development. Bertram Gross notes: "It is the intricate network of the subsystems that, more than anything else, establishes the framework of social structure." (The state of the nationals; social systems accounting. In: Social Indicators, R A Bauer (Ed). Cambridge, MIT Press, 1966, p.194).
Serious questions are raised when the International Labour Office's Yearbook of Labour Statistics has data on industrial disputes and accidents, but no data on trade unions. Until data is available and attention is focused on the social devices (and their interrelationships) through which individuals initiate their own participation in society, it is questionable whether theories and policies based on aggregation of data on the social devices by which they can be influenced and controlled will result in policies which respond to (rather than create) social problems, or will be considered meaningful by individuals or the smaller groups which represent their special interests.

When Comic-Con comes to town San Diego DJ goes into overdrive. We provide DJ, karaoke, projector rentals and videography for many events that week. It is also Shark Week (around here it is Shark Month) which presented a unique opportunity for San Diego DJ to serve Syfy Channel. They were getting ready to release Sharknado 2: The Second One and planned a preview party at the beautiful Hotel Solamar in the heart of the San Diego Gaslamp District.
They asked for a hosted karaoke show, which we enthusiastically provided. The hotel has a large deck area so there was lots to do, and we occupied one of the side rooms. Many people took the opportunity to stop by and sing their favorite song for a crowd of appreciative revelers. It was a wonderful party and organized to perfection by Scott Tallman of Tallman Events.
Syfy provided a karaoke stage with a Sharknado backdrop so speakers were placed on the floor to prevent blocking the line of sight to the branding. The room was small enough that speaker placement was not an issue at all, and our premium JBL speakers made everyone sound like a superstar. We provided each singer with a wireless UHF Vocopro microphone to ensure rich, static free vocals. We also provided a 19″ HD flat panel LED TV to read the words on. The karaoke was a big hit.
Even the director, Anthony C. Ferrante stopped by to sing a song! It was a fun night with fun people and another Comic-Con success story. The hotel staff was exemplary, the planner executed flawlessly and Syfy is a fantastic client. San Diego DJ would love to give you the same attention to detail and all the fun that we provided to Syfy. Just pick up the phone and call 858-356-6622 or toll free at 877-HEY MR DJ (877-439-6735) or use the date checker on our home page. I look forward to hearing from you!

Q: Website loading until initial script finishes i have a highly used server (running plesk).
I have some long scripts that take a while to process (huge mysql database). I have found then in 1 browser, i run the script and while it is loading i cannot view any other parts of the site until the script finishes, it seems that all the requests go off, but they don't get served until the initial script finishes.
i thought this may be a server wide issue, but it is not. If i use another computer i can view the site fine, even on the same computer with a different browser i can navigate fine, while the script still loads. I think it much limit the number of requests per session.
Is this correct? is there any way to configure this to allow for 2-3 other requests per session?
It is really bad that when i am on the phone to a client, i have just run a long report, but cannot use the site or follow what they are saying until the page has loaded?
Chris

A: Why don't you load that time-consuming SQL through a AJAX type request after the page has loaded.
 <BODY onLoad="ajax_request_for_large_query();">

    <script type="text/javascript">

    function ajax_request_for_large_query() {

      document.getElementById('mydiv')= "Loading....";

      if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { // Mozilla, Safari, IE7...
          http_request = new XMLHttpRequest();
      } else if (window.ActiveXObject) { // IE6 and older
          http_request = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
      }
      http_request.onreadystatechange = Contents;
      http_request.open('GET', 'test.html', true);
      http_request.send(null);

    }

    function Contents() {
      if (http_request.readyState == 4) {
          if (http_request.status == 200) {
               document.getElementById('mydiv')= http_request.responseText;
          } else {
              alert('There was a problem with the request.');
          }
      }
    }

    </script>

This doesn't work, but something like that.
The javascript function fetches the data from the requested url which performs your huge query and returns the result after which a div in the html gets updated but only after website was loaded.

A: This depends on the browser. While most modern browsers allow about 6 concurrent HTTP 1.1 connections, older browsers only allowed two. Please specify the browser you use.

*

*If you use IE, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/183110).

*If you use Firefox, go to "about:config", and set the value "network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server" or maybe even "network.http.max-connections-per-server"

Home/ Lawyer/Do You Need to Speak to a Family Lawyer?
Have you spoken to a lawyer about a pending divorce? If not, you need to go online and review the family law offices that provide services in your local area. By speaking with a family law attorney, you can learn more about your rights and find out how to best proceed with the divorce process.
If you are not sure how to split up the assets in your marriage or your spouse has already secured a lawyer, you need to go online right now and review family law services. That is the best way to handle a divorce or any other family dispute. People can become emotional when there is a break in a relationship. That is why you need to have a legal advocate on your side as a third party who can remain calm and objective. You do not have this type of advantage if you try to go through the divorce process by yourself.
When reviewing the services of a family law firm, make sure that the services extend beyond divorce assistance. The firm you choose should also provide mediation and handle children's issues, including parenting orders. Work with a firm and lawyer who can help you resolve any property settlement disagreements.
You should review the services of a legal firm such as CG Family Law online. Doing so will give you a clearer understanding about family law services and the people who handle them. You certainly need to contact a lawyer if you plan to divide the assets in your relationship. Whether you are married or in a de facto relationship, splitting the property can get complicated. That is why the lawyer who handles your divorce should be knowledgeable in property settlements.
What you receive in assets will depend on the facts of your case and how the items were acquired before and during the union. Some of the details the lawyer will need to know include the length of the relationship and what was contributed by each party. The future financial needs of each party are also considered when making this type of decision.
One section in the Family Law Act of 1975 establishes what needs to take place for the court to make a decision about asset division. When discussing your divorce case with a lawyer, you may want to ask him or her about this law. Ask about the process and how you can realise an advantageous outcome.
Again, family disputes can become emotional. That is why working with a lawyer can make everything easier. If you would like to know more about mediation, property settlement, or divorce, go online and carefully scrutinise family legal services.
Once you find a legal services firm that provides full family law help, you can rest easier. Either contact the firm by sending an email or telephone the firm today. The sooner you contact a lawyer, the sooner you can move on with your life in a positive way.

Reykjavik has the world's largest and most sophisticated geothermal district heating technique, which has utilized all-natural hot water to heat its buildings and houses since 1930. Right now, geothermal powers the whole city – with an electricity distribution network harnessing 750 MW thermal power from steam, and a water distribution system creating 60 million cubic meters of hot water. The use of this natural resource has massively decreased the City's dependence on fossil fuels – producing it 1 of the cleanest cities in the planet. CO2 emissions have been reduced from 1944 to 2006 by up to 110,000,000 tons, delivering savings of up to 4 million tons CO2 just about every year. Geothermal has also contributed to Iceland's transformation from one particular of the poorest nations to 1 that enjoys a incredibly higher standard of living.
With an open loop effectively, we could pump water from one properly and return it to a different, otherwise recognized as an open to recycle, this getting a total advective heat supply. For instance you may well drill a well 150′ deep and come in to a vast amount of water. If this were to take place you could drill a second properly in hopes to encounter the same aquifer. In which case you do a pump and dump. Hence the water goes into the property by means of the heat pump and then returns to a second nicely. If you do not return any cool water to the nicely you are pulling from then the nicely stays at a constant warm temperature. Hence being the most efficient of the options.
The initially music video I created with my class, in 1989, was designed as a way to bring the textbook to life and to take the bottom of Bloom's Taxonomy, Rote Memorization, and make it a joyful activity, realizing that the act of repetition worked a lot considerably far better when it was set to music. And movement. We also discovered that in the course of action of rehearsing for a music video nobody minded going more than the material again and once more. We moved simply up the levels, remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating and developing.
The Clean Energy Directory is a reference guide to clean organizations in Australia. Organizations in this directory make and supply goods, technologies, assistance, and support across the whole clean energy spectrum, as effectively as energy efficiency and carbon abatement.
Photovoltaics operate by transforming solar heat to electrical power. Solar panels are constructed out of solar cells witch include this photovoltaic material. Energy is generated by way of excitation of electrons from the sun the electrons move to a greater power state, permitting them to carry an electrical charge. Suitable now the heating system in you residence as described works significantly like a blow dryer for your hair air is moved over coils that are heated up by electrical existing.
The calculation of CO2 saving is based on other doable alternatives – in the case of Reykjavik this would have been the use of fossil fuels such as gas, oil or coal. Fossil fuels have to be imported to Iceland, for that reason the CO2 saving is significantly higher. Geothermally altered ground can be prone to landslides as it can drop its underlying structure. A single example of this is the Hipaua Cliffs beside State Highway 41 near Small Waihi at the southern finish of Lake Taupo. These cliffs are unstable and prone to landslides, particularly right after heavy rain.
The image above shows how it should appear now. With the gray feeding inlet raised and the blue fertilizer outlet raised, each to the identical height as the gas holder neck, the water will reach the top of all 3 areas when the gas holder is filled with 1m3 of gas and that pressure will push the gas out to the kitchen. A system that provides you all that you are promised, saves you money, keeps the fuel trucks away, and reduces your carbon footprint and your influence on the Earth – is a success.
No matter whether you prefer the green" of the environmental influence or keeping your tough earned greenbacks" in your pocket, geothermal is the type of green that we can all agree on!
Geothermal heating systems operate by transferring the all-natural heat of the earth to provide heating to homes. The term geothermal is derived from the greek language, and literally translated indicates earth heat". This supply of power is located underneath the crust of the earth – both in shallow grounds, as well as miles beneath the surface, and even in magma. Tapping into these reservoirs of magma, steam or hot water, it can generate power both in terms of geothermal heating as properly as geothermal electricity , that can then be utilised to offer electricity to run household appliances or present the house with heating, cooling or warm water.
Meanwhile, my not-for-profit organization Solar Cities Solutions (at present undergoing a name transform) has imported into New York the Chinese Puxin steel mold concrete forms for building 4, 6 and 10m3 biogas systems from poured concrete. The molds cost us about $10,000 with an additional $5000 to $7000 for for add-on supplies and shipping and customs. But the molds can be used hundreds of times.
A basic payback of 41.7 years does not warrant the work of utilizing the much more complicated Net Present Value calculations as the payback would only get worse. As a reference, most utility organizations use a 9 year payback as the reduce-off point. The decrease the payback, the larger the priority. I installed a Waste Water Heat Recovery program rather simply because the payback was less than 3 years. I also installed an on-demand electric water heater, and the payback on that worked out to 9 to ten years. That one is far more questionable, while it fit in with the general design of obtaining all utilities in 1 wall (i.e. no utility room).
It is not also late to obtain a tax credit for the installation of a geothermal heating technique. The extended legislation is powerful by way of December 31, 2016. In the state of Missouri, residential homeowners have a slew of clean power tax rebate enticements to take benefit of and save power expenses. From geothermal heating to the programmable thermostat, rebates and credits cover a wide scope of eco-friendly incentives for the single loved ones house.
Thanks for taking the time to comment Viryabo. I agree that action needs to be taken to show the advantages of renewable energy to third world countries as they typically have the greatest resource as they are in regions with higher wind/fantastic sun and so forth. Moreover they are usually the nations with the oldest, least effective approaches of producing power. It is exciting to note that the somewhat poor nation of Mauritius is aiming to be carbon neutral by 2020, presumably through the use of such sources of all-natural power.
Now, the second type of heating and cooling program is the radiant heating systems. This technique makes use of water, hot steam or electricity to charge water and make radiant heat and this is made feasible by making use of the central boiler program that heats the water. The steam that's generated moves about by means of a program of tubes and pipes that are located below the house's floor surface and when these pipes gets warmed up mainly because of hot water and steam, radiant heat is emitted which warm the bedroom.
Then there's the Ambiance Eco Green mini-splits. These systems are altogether above the norm in numerous, quite a few methods. These systems best something else on the market place right now with traditional air conditioning and heating systems. Their reliability is excellent, and the electrical efficiency that they offer you far and away exceeds the common central heating and air conditioning systems sold nowadays, and when you employee the positive aspects of Ambiance Eco Green systems all through your residence in the manner that they had been developed to be used, then you've really accomplished yourself, and your loved ones a favor.

Q: How LSTM can be varying in length if I stack a fully connected layer top to it? I try to build a varying length LSTM. First, I make LSTM units then I stack a fully connected layer with 2 output nodes. The code is below:
from tensorflow.keras.models import Sequential
from tensorflow.keras.layers import LSTM, Dense, TimeDistributed
from tensorflow.keras.utils import to_categorical
import numpy as np

model = Sequential()

model.add(LSTM(32, return_sequences=True, input_shape=(None, 5)))
model.add(LSTM(8, return_sequences=True))
model.add(Dense(2, activation='sigmoid'))

model.compile(loss='categorical_crossentropy',
              optimizer='adam')

for episode in range(2):
    sequence_length = np.random.randint(10, 100)
    x_train = np.random.random((1000, sequence_length, 5))
    y_train = x_train[:, :, 0]
    for i in range(1, 5):
        y_train[:, i:] += x_train[:, :-i, i]
    y_train = to_categorical(y_train > 2.5)
    model.fit(x_train, y_train, epochs=5, verbose=1)

But the problem is, I know LSTM can be varying in length, but when I stack fully connected layer top to it, how can it still be varying at length?

A: Short answer: The Dense layer doesn't care about the size of anything except the last dimension, so it "just works", and is being applied to each time step independently.
Looking at the LSTM docs, it accepts only a 3D block of data shaped [batch, timesteps, feature]. Then it will iterate over the timesteps dimension, recurrently feeding the output as input for the next time step.
Looking at the Dense docs, it accepts any sized data. If there are more than 2 dimensions to your data, it will simply apply the layer independently across each of the intermediate dimensions.
That is, if you give a Dense layer an input shaped [batch, timestep, feature_in], it will vectorise the operation over both the batch and timestep dimension, giving you back an output shaped [batch, timestep, feature_out]. You can think of this as doing something like:
out = [dense_layer(inp[:, s]) for s in range(inp.shape[1])]

It should be noted that feature_in and feature_out in this description is determined when you create your model, not when you give it an example.
E.g. Let's say I make a dense layer which takes a vector with 2 values and creates a vector with 3 values. Then it doesn't matter how many dimensions the input has, the layer will take the last dimension as the vector, and apply the same operation across all of the other dimensions
import tensorflow as tf
import numpy as np

dense_layer = tf.keras.layers.Dense(3, input_shape=(2,))

inp1 = tf.convert_to_tensor(np.random.random((4, 2)).astype(np.float32))
# <tf.Tensor 'Const:0' shape=(4, 2) dtype=float32>
out1 = dense_layer(inp1)
# <tf.Tensor 'dense/BiasAdd:0' shape=(4, 3) dtype=float32>

inp2 = tf.convert_to_tensor(np.random.random((5, 4, 2)).astype(np.float32))

out3 = dense_layer(inp2)
# <tf.Tensor 'dense/BiasAdd_1:0' shape=(5, 4, 3) dtype=float32>

inp3 = tf.convert_to_tensor(np.random.random((6, 5, 4, 2)).astype(np.float32))
# <tf.Tensor 'Const_2:0' shape=(6, 5, 4, 2) dtype=float32>
out3 = dense_layer(inp3)
# <tf.Tensor 'dense/BiasAdd_2:0' shape=(6, 5, 4, 3) dtype=float32>

inp4 = tf.convert_to_tensor(np.random.random((7, 6, 5, 4, 2)).astype(np.float32))
# <tf.Tensor 'Const_5:0' shape=(7, 6, 5, 4, 2) dtype=float32>

Canon EOS 1300D review: Entry-level ace?
Sam Kieldsen | 27 May 2016
1/19 Pocket-lint
Best cheap camera deals for July 2019: Save $100s and £100s on a Sony, Nikon, £100s off Olympus, Canon and Panasonic
Price when reviewed: £330
In the wide world of cameras the 1300D couldn't be described as an especially exciting camera to use - as it doesn't push any envelopes and it's lacking in the kind of headline-grabbing trick shot features that you'll find on more expensive models - but it's a really solid performer and an accessible way to start taking better photos. Can't say better than that.
Accessibly priced
Cecent all-round image quality
Hardy and lightweight plastic body
Simple control layout with large buttons
Detail-rich LCD screen
Wi-Fi and NFC for easy smartphone hookup
Uninspiring styling
Screen doesn't fare well in sunshine
Slow continuous shooting speed
Just nine autofocus points
Limited ISO range
Not much different to earlier 1200D model
Thanks to smartphones, everyone's a photographer these days – but what happens when you hit your iPhone or Galaxy's imaging limits and realise you need something a bit beefier? Chances are, your first thought is to buy yourself what used to be known as a "real camera": a DSLR.
Step forward the Canon EOS 1300D, the company's latest entry-level model. With an 18-megapixel APS-C sensor, manual settings, optical viewfinder and the ability to use a huge variety of lenses, it's a sizeable step up from a phone snapper. But reasoning that such upgraders will expect to be able to share their images on social media straight away, Canon has also chucked in Wi-Fi and NFC for simple smartphone connection – that's the 1300D's primary difference over the older 1200D.
And then there's the price. At just £330 including an 18-55mm zoom lens, the 1300D is one of the most affordable DSLRs around from launch. So does it offer the sort of performance-to-price trade-off to attract would-be "serious" photographers, or would they be better off spending a little more on one of the impressive (and pricier) compact system cameras offered by the likes of Sony, Fujifilm, Olympus and Panasonic?
Canon EOS 1300D review: Design and build quality
As DSLRs go, the 1300D couldn't be called a standout in the style department. Very much a "classic" DSLR in terms of its shape, it looks the same as every other entry-level EOS DSLR that has come before it. Consider the arresting design of compact system cameras like Olympus' PEN or Fujifilm's X Series and it's hard to contemplate anybody choosing something as dull as this over them – but then style could be considered subjective and a sort-of unimportant trait for a camera.
And in most other aspects of design and build, Canon has done a fine job. The 1300D is constructed mostly from polycarbonate resin (you might also know this as "plastic") which, while not the prettiest substance to look at, feels amply tough in the hands, as well as light in weight. This isn't a camera you want to whip out in a summer thunderstorm or bring on a rock climbing trip, but it'll withstand regular everyday use quite capably.
That classic DSLR shape we mentioned above? It's endured so long chiefly because it's functional. The chunky grip makes it comfortable to hold and hard to drop (you can even use it one-handed), while the placement of controls and dials on the top and back of the camera puts everything within easy reach of your thumbs and fingers.
While we're on the subject, the 1300D's buttons are large, pruned back to no more than the basics. That's part of Canon's plan to keep those aforementioned upgrader users happy and free of information overload, we suspect – but it does limit the 1300D's customisability somewhat. Some cameras sport multiple customisable buttons, but here there's really just the one Q button to access the quick menu. Other buttons give provide shortcuts to exposure compensation, ISO sensitivity, autofocus mode, white balance and drive/self-timer.
The 3-inch screen on the back is impressive in most situations, providing decent contrast, colour reproduction and detail that make it a joy to review photos and videos, while menu screens look bright and crisp. It's not touch-sensitive, though, which does limit your control options slightly, but given the price of the 1300D and its position in Canon's range, that's perhaps not a surprise. On the flip side, it is a surprise that it lacks given the way smartphones have morphed the way we use electronic devices.
One problem we had with the display is that it's too reflective and not quite bright enough to see properly on a sunny day. Not an issue you might struggle with too often here in the UK, but worth a mention anyway. The other is that it's fixed, and doesn't rotate or tilt; having an articulated screen helps you compose images in situations where you can't use the viewfinder (with the camera held high above your head, for instance, you can tilt it down and see what you're shooting), so it's a shame users will miss out on that.
Canon EOS 1300D review: Performance
There's not much point in beating around the bush here: the 1300D performs like an entry-level DSLR. To give a few examples: its continuous shooting speed tops out at a sluggish three shots per second (3fsp); it has only nine autofocus points; there's no built-in HDR shooting mode. None of these are deal-breakers, especially in a camera this affordable, but you can see where Canon has pruned back performance to save costs.
That said, we didn't find the camera difficult to use, or its limitations particularly noticeable. It autofocuses quickly enough to shoot static or slow-moving subjects, even in low-light (unless you're using the live view mode, which takes what seems like an age to lock onto a subject in such conditions – it's pretty good in decent light though). We found metering to be accurate by default, helping you to take correctly exposed photos from the off (there are other metering options which you can learn about as you progress).
The ISO sensitivity range looks a little stingy on paper at just 100 to 6400 (it can be expanded to 12,800 for emergencies). The higher that number the more the camera processes the captured data to compensate for given lighting conditions: so if it's dark the camera has to "boost" the ISO to maintain an exposed image and fast enough shutter speed for sharpness' sake, but the higher the ISO the more image noise that is revealed and, therefore, the more processing that is needed to attempt to counteract it, which typically results in softness. So if you're looking for a camera that dazzles at nighttime shooting, you need to be willing to spend more than £330; again, we can't really fault Canon too much here given the entry-level point.
As for the camera's Wi-Fi connection? Well, it works much like most other connected cameras, allowing you to hook it up to a phone/tablet running the free Canon Camera Connect app, which you can then use to move photos and video from the camera to the device. The app also lets you use your connected device as a remote control and viewfinder for the 1300D, plus make some basic changes to image settings. It all feels pretty intuitive and slick, although being an iPhone user, your intrepid reviewer wasn't able to test out the NFC contactless connectivity, instead pairing phone and 1300D the old fashioned way.
Canon EOS 1300D review: Image quality
OK, enough messing about. You're probably wondering by now if the 1300D's photo and video quality is up to much. After all, we've been banging on a lot about how cheap it is, so surely it's nothing special, right?
Wrong! While 18-megapixels may not sound like much in this day of 20-megapixel phone cameras, the sensor's size and the fact that, whatever lens you've got attached, it'll be better than your phone's plastic peephole means it surpasses anything you could capture on a smartphone. In good lighting conditions, you can expect crisp detail, accurate colours and a lack of grainy noise – and that's just with the bundled 18-55mm kit lens.
We also tried the 1300D with Canon's f/1.4 50mm prime lens (around £230), and here the results were even sharper and cleaner, with beautiful out-of-focus bokeh backgrounds as a result of that wide-open aperture. Not a bad investment either: for a £560 all-in purchase you have a great prime lens shooter for less than some similar high-end compact cameras.
In low-light with the ISO pushed up to 3200 and 6400, the on-board image processor does an admirable job of controlling image noise. You'll definitely spot speckles and grain if you zoom in on your computer screen (or print images at poster size), but overall the results are surprisingly clear.
The 1300D is primarily a stills camera, but if you twist the mode dial to video you can capture Full HD footage at up to 30fps (or 720p at 60fps), and it looks pretty great – again, a big jump above the equivalent clips taken using a phone or cheap compact camera in terms of detail and noise – and there's also far more potential for blurred background bokeh, which always gives your videos a bit of Hollywood sheen.
There are a handful of manual options available when shooting video, too, but we wouldn't quite recommend the 1300D as a filmmaker's tool. If you look at its video mode as a bonus feature, you won't be disappointed, but anyone looking to primarily capture video should be looking at pricier, more feature-rich cameras.
The world of entry-level DSLRs isn't a particularly dynamic or fast-moving one, but Canon has succeeded in hitting all the main bullet points with the 1300D, bar the lack of touchscreen.
Ultimately similar to the EOS 1200D, the 1300D captures great photos and decent videos, is easy to use, sturdy (despite the plastic build), lightweight and priced at a truly affordable level. Chuck in the smartphone connectivity – that's the primary difference with this latest model compared to the last – and you've pretty much got the perfect introductory camera. Now that's an ideal step-up from your point-and-shoot snapper or smartphone, if you're ok with the scale of a DSLR and confident that you'd actually pack it up and carry it around with you.
In the wide world of cameras the 1300D couldn't be described as an especially exciting camera to use – as it doesn't push any envelopes and it's lacking in the kind of headline-grabbing trick shot features that you'll find on more expensive models – but it's a really solid performer and an accessible way to start taking better photos. Can't say better than that.

Rating: Some material may be inappropriate for children under 13.
Focus Features presents Kenneth Branagh's BELFAST. Written and directed by Academy Award® nominee Branagh, BELFAST is the humorous, tender, and intensely personal story of one boy's childhood during the tumult of the late 1960s in the city of Branagh's birth.
BELFAST is a movie straight from Branagh's own experience. A nine-year-old boy must chart a path towards adulthood through a world that has suddenly turned upside down. His stable and loving community and everything he thought he understood about life is changed forever but joy, laughter, music, and the formative magic of the movies remain.

Actor, writer, director Kenneth Branagh is known for his Shakespearian/Victorian era films so when he wrote and directed a movie based in the 1960's it felt like a bit of a departure from his normal fare. The semi-autobiographical, BELFAST, tells the story of a nine-year-old boy whose entire world suddenly turns upside down when his family moves to England because of the violence in Ireland.Focus...

Belfast Theatrical Review
While there is always violence in some part of the world at any given time, the 1960s seemed to have been one of the most intense decades in history. In 1963 a Buddhist monk named Thích Quảng Đức sat down in a busy street in Vietnam and burned himself to death in protest. Five years later, again in Vietnam, US troops murdered over three hundred civilians in what has become to be known as the My Lai Massacre, and on US soil, amongst the chaos of the civil rights movement, Martin Luther King, Jr. and President John F. Kennedy were assassinated.
Across the pond, Catholics were being persecuted by Protestants in Ireland. In what became known as "The Troubles", the riots in Belfast and elsewhere in Northern Ireland lasted for the next thirty years. Actor, writer, director Kenneth Branagh (Henry V) lived through those riots until his family moved to England when he was nine years old. Belfast, the semi-autobiographical movie about Branagh's family and neighbors during that tumultuous time, has won numerous awards on the film festival circuit. It opens tonight in theaters throughout the United States.
Buddy (newcomer Jude Hill) was your average little boy growing up in Ireland. He had a crush on his classmate, blonde hair, blue-eyed, Catherine (newcomer Olive Tennant), and simply wanted to play outside with his friends. Unfortunately, he lived in Belfast in 1969. For Buddy, it wasn't so bad. He was Protestant. However, for some of his neighbors and Catherine, it was a dangerous time to be Catholic. With resentment growing, Catholics were finding themselves in the middle of the violence as they were beaten, and their homes were burned down. Scary for anyone, it was downright terrifying for a young boy.
As an intensely personal story for Branagh, he does a wonderful job steering his cast in the direction he wants them to go emotionally. Additionally, his camera angles and use of lighting highlight his beloved city in the way only a native son possibly could. Though most of the film is supposed to be in black and white to reflect the era, the hue has a bluish tinge to it giving the overall look of the film an angelic feel. Branagh's dialogue teeters back and forth between the seriousness one would expect for the situation to the loving banter and laughter that only family can bring.
As it should be with this story, the focus is on Buddy and Hill, despite a lack of professional experience, rises to the challenge. He is endearing and emotional and delivers his lines like an actor well beyond nine years of age. Caitríona Balfe (Outlander) is captivating as Ma. She and Hill have some wonderful scenes together and neither actor overshadows the other. Dame Judi Dench (Shakespeare in Love) and Ciarán Hinds (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2) are the elders of the clan who bring age, wisdom, and some levity to the story. Jamie Dornan (Fifty Shades of Grey), is serviceable if unforgettable as Buddy's mostly absent father.
As a love letter to his hometown and its torrid past, Branagh does his best to highlight the beauty of Belfast in the sixties despite the ugliness penetrating the city. At a run time of an hour and forty minutes, the movie seems longer at times, especially in the second act which drags a little bit. It also seemed a little "sanitized" for a movie set to the backdrop of the 1969 riots in Ireland.
However, the riots aren't the focus of the movie. Buddy and his family are and from that standpoint, Branagh created a beautiful film that will most probably be nominated for more than one Oscar and BAFTA award.

Centor® Unveils The First Integrated Door With its Centor 200 Series at the 2013 American Institute of Architects (AIA) National Convention
Integrated Door Collection Combines Fully Retractable Screens and Shades in One System Significant Breakthrough in Window and Door Design Connects Homeowners With Nature
DENVER, June 20, 2013 – Centor®, an award-winning designer and manufacturer of beautiful, eco-friendly doors, screens and hardware, unveils its most groundbreaking innovation, to date ¾ the Centor 200 Series integrated door collection for large exterior openings from three to 24 feet. The doors will preview at the American Institute of Architects (AIA) National Convention in Denver, June 20-22. Challenging all concepts of what we know as a door today, Centor combines door, screen and shade into one system, introducing a new category of "integrated doors" that connects people with the world outside. Unprecedented by any other product on the market, Centor's new doors represents thousands of hours of development resulting in one of the most significant breakthroughs in window and door design in the last 50 years.
Centor's innovative clean design converts large exterior openings into indoor/outdoor living, on demand, with doors that open and close with fingertip ease. The Centor 200 Series combines composite doors of beautiful wood and aluminum finishes with fully retractable screens and shades. Never before have screens and shades been able to appear and fully disappear into doorframes. Designed for all architectural styles, these integrated doors are available in a variety of configurations, including two and three-panel sliding patio, folding, double-swing and single doors. The Centor 200 Series removes all barriers to nature, yet still protects homes. The new doors fill living spaces with light and fresh air in the summer without insect worries, while vanishing shades offer privacy and keep homes warm at night.
"At Centor, we believe the world is beautiful and helping people make the most of the world outside. Traditionally, doors are an inherent compromise," said Centor Managing Director Nigel Spork. "Big doors have great views, but little privacy. Heavy drapes keep houses warm, but make rooms feel small, and who wants to look out through insect screens or have hardware blocking views? The best solution is to design a door system as a whole, not as individual components like panels, shades or hardware. We designed each element of our new door from scratch to integrate and provide the very best in inside/outside living. We invested R&D into this for years. Thousands of hours later and 14 international patents pending at launch, we think people will be absolutely delighted with the Centor 200 Series."
From inside the home, Centor provides a clean look atypical of existing doors. Narrow stiles maximize the doors' glass opening, hinges are concealed and intermediate locks are hidden from view. The Centor 200 Series comes in custom sizes and high-quality aluminum (customizable to any color) and timber finishes (clear alder, Douglas fir, mahogany and primed wood), screens in two mesh options and shades in 12 fabric selections. Aluminum wood-clad door options provide the beauty of wood on the inside, with the durability and low maintenance of aluminum on the outside.
These beautiful integrated doors come standard with screens, shades, patented weatherproofing and top-hung hardware, which allow the doors to operate easily, and they are compatible with all forms of wall construction. The Centor 200 Series integrated doors promise to become the new standard among architects, builders, designers and consumers.
Made in America, these eco-friendly, energy-efficient patio doors offer a wide range of options for customization and can be purchased throughout the U.S. through an expanding network of Centor Integrated Dealers.
The Centor exhibit at the AIA Convention is located at booth number 2746 (next to the café). Doors are available now. For more information about purchasing the Centor 200 Series integrated door, call 630-957-1000 or visit www.centor.com.
