Huawei's sub-brand Honor has sent out invites for a launch event on June 22nd. The Chinese brand has also tweeted an image suggesting the launch of Honor 5C.
Beautiful pictures in a snap with Kirin 650 16nm chipset on our latest phone. Launching, June 22. #DareToPerform pic.twitter.com/XuCR1npefl
— Honor India (@HiHonorIndia) June 15, 2016
Although the invite doesn't clearly state the name of the device and it just says "Come and witness the Genesis of Innovation as Honor accelerates into the next level of smart telephony." However, Honor 5C runs on the same processor mentioned in the tweet.
Honor 5C was launched in China back in April, where the company had priced it at CNY 899 ($136 or Rs. 9,000) for the 3G model, and at CNY 999 ($150 or Rs. 10,250) for the 4G model. The company is expected to bring the 4G model to India at approximately Rs. 10,000/
Honor 5C is an all metal device that looks quite premium for its price and shows the effort Huawei has put in the design of the phone. It comes with a 5.2-inch full HD (1920×1080 pixels) IPS LCD display and has 16GB of internal storage that can be further expanded up to 128GB using a microSD card.
The Honor 5C also features a 13-megapixel rear camera with f/2.0 aperture and LED flash, 8-megapixel selfie camera with f/2.0 aperture, 3,000mAh battery, a fingerprint scanner placed below the rear camera.
Apart from 4G, the smartphone supports GPRS/ EDGE, 3G, GPS/ A-GPS, Glonass, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi connectivity options. The Honor 5C runs on Emotion UI 4.1 based on Android 6.0 Marshmallow.

Visit The Hobbit Fanpage on Facebook for all things Middle Earth!
Middle Earth on screen is approaching the end. The Hobbit films are all but over, with the last installment, the Battle of the Five Armies coming out in early December. But will this be our last taste of Middle Earth at the cinema?
Hope has been rested on the shoulders of 'The Silmarillion', a well-known book by JRR Tolkien. A book which few have read, and many have attempted. Characterized by having more names than there are deaths in Game of Thrones, 'The Silmarillion,' is more than a challenge for most readers. Personally, I think that it is far from film-able, but to many, it remains a book destined to be on the big screen. People do pose the idea of it being made into a TV series but it is hard to see how that could work out really. The question is: apart from being complex and confusing to most readers, can it even be filmed?
The answer being no. Well, at least for a while. Most of the Tolkien family hate the movies, especially Christopher Tolkien; the son responsible for publishing most of JRR Tolkien's books including the Silmarillion. Thus, he owns the rights which means that the chance of him selling them is incredibly low. In an interview with Le Monde, his first in forty years, Christopher Tolkien reflects upon his hatred of the films:
Tolkien has become a monster, devoured by his own popularity and absorbed into the absurdity of our time," Christopher Tolkien observes sadly. "The chasm between the beauty and seriousness of the work, and what it has become, has overwhelmed me. The commercialization has reduced the aesthetic and philosophical impact of the creation to nothing. There is only one solution for me: to turn my head away. They eviscerated the book by making it an action movie for young people aged 15 to 25," Christopher says regretfully. "And it seems that The Hobbit will be the same kind of film."
It's hard to blame Christopher for his strong views; saying that he loved his father's books is an understatement. We now have two reasons as to which the Silmarillion will most likely never be made into a movie. It is too complex and confusing for the big screen and Christopher Tolkien will never sell the rights. Is that it? Or is there more?
Well... sort of. If the Silmarillion was to be made, it would not be made by the man himself - Peter Jackson. Although the director who brought Middle Earth to the big screen in the (great movies ever made, fact not opinion) Lord of the Rings trilogy, it would instead be directed by a different director. Why? Because Peter Jackson never even wanted to film the Hobbit! At the end of the Lord of the Rings he stated that he would not be returning for the Hobbit and it sure looked that way. Guillermo del Toro, director of Pacific Rim, was going to be the one to film the Hobbit until he pulled out, thus forcing Peter Jackson to decide whether he would film the movie or face masses of angry fans. Facing criticism for his latest Hobbit films, makes it is even more probable that he won't be returning, definitely not for the Silmarillion. At Comic Con last year, in response to a fan's question, he replied:
I don't think the Tolkien estate liked those films. I don't think The Silmarillion will go anywhere for quite a long time.
There are the reasons thus far, why the Silmarillion, along with the many other works written by JRR Tolkien and published by his son, will never be made into films!

Original paper
Geochemistry and depositional environment of ferromanganoan metasediments on the Island of Kythnos, Cyclades, Greece
Chrysanthaki, A.I.; Baltatzis, Emm.
Neues Jahrbuch für Mineralogie - Monatshefte Jg. 2003 Heft 1 (2003), p. 1 - 17
published: Jan 16, 2003
Samples of Fe-Mn metasediments (hematite quartzites, mica-bearing quartzites and garnet-bearing amphibole schists) from the lower sub-unit of Kythnos island, part of Attic-Cycladic complex of Alpine age, have been collected and analysed for 45 elements, including rare earth elements.The hematite quartzites and mica-bearing hematite quartzites occur as intercalations in the upper part of a metavolcanic sequence or in the lower part of an overlying metasedimentary sequence of the northern part of Kythnos island. They show trace elements concentration and rare earth element (REE) patterns similar to those of hydrothermal deposits. The garnet-bearing amphibole schists occur in the sedimentary sequence of the southeastern part of the island. They have lower Fe/Mn ratios and higher trace element and REE contents in comparison with the hematite-quartzites and mica-bearing hematite quartzites. According to these geochemical characteristics, the protolith of Fe-Mn metasediments may have been formed under oceanic hydrothermal activity. In this process, circulating heated seawater reacted with basic volcanic rocks to form metal bearing hydrothermal solutions enriched in Fe, Mn and trace elements. These hydrothermal solutions were discharged on the ocean floor, through shear and/or fracture zones in an environment of decreasing temperature. The decreasing negative Eu anomalies from the lower (hematite quartzites) to the upper part (garnet-bearing amphibole schists) of the sequence possibly indicate a change in the condition (T, fO2) of the deposition as well as an increase of the detrital-hydrogenous components in relation to the hydrothermal fluids.

When the World Trade Center's twin towers fell on Sept. 11, they took with them more than just America's sense of security.
With new airline restrictions on the horizon and residents near and far fearful of flying, businesses such as travel agencies appear to be taking the brunt of what is likely the worst disaster in American history.
Norbert Tuseo, president of Sunstate Realty and Sunstate Travel in St. Augustine, has reduced his staff by a third since the terrorist attacks.
His business is off by 85 percent.
Just after New York, Washington, D.C., and Pennsylvania were hit and the airlines shut down, Tuseo said he had a full staff but no business.
"We couldn't book tickets," he said.
And now, instead of selling vacations, Tuseo and his staff are refunding those clients who had tickets during the airport closures but weren't able to use them.
Business will improve, he said, if three things happen.
One: "As soon as there's some resolution to the United State's retaliation."
Two: "The implementation of new security measures (at airports)."
And three: "The federal bailout of the airlines."
(Congress recently granted the airlines $15 billion in aid, according to a report from The Associated Press).
Despite the state of business, Tuseo isn't hurting as much as others. Because he owns his building, he doesn't have to worry about making money to cover major bills.
"Someone who's paying rent? The overhead just eats them up," he said.
But while the attacks have had a noticeable effect on local travel agencies, they're not wholly to blame for the industry's current state of uncertainty.
Before the attacks, the Internet had been chiseling away at the structure built by travel agents.
"The Internet has impacted business," said Angie Geiger, office manager for Ancient City Travel Inc.
Web sites such as Priceline.com and Travelocity.com offer deals on trip tickets, cutting out the need for a go-between.
Everything can be handled through personal computers, from flight times to cost estimates and payment.
Even before the terrorist attacks, business had slowed to the point where Ancient City had to go from three agents to two, Geiger said.
The fall season is usually busy, she continued, because most people can find deals on airlines or cruise ships. But not this year.
"It's not as much (busy) as usual," Geiger said. "People are afraid to spend money."
Ancient City is floating by, she said, because of money made in the beginning of the year. Without that money, current business would most likely have hurt them much more than it has.
"We'll just have to wait and see," she said. "We're surviving enough to stay in business."
Some travel agencies aren't as fortunate.
Rainbow Travel, formerly at 4 Granada St., closed shop Sept. 1. Officials at the Jacksonville Rainbow office declined to comment on the closure.
Worldtravel Partners near Albertsons recently closed down as well. Corporate officials were unavailable for comment.
And Northstar Travel Inc. on U.S. 1 South shut its doors well over a year ago, Geiger said.
Up in Ponte Vedra Beach, Janice Maida, vice president of All Seasons Travel and Cruise, said her company isn't in quite as dire straits as others.
"If we were 100 percent dependent on airline sales, we would be much more impacted," Maida said. "(But) every travel agency has experienced losses."
The key to survival, she said, is diversity. Extending business beyond airlines to include cruises and land packages is what, in the end, will allow a business to carry on.
Even before the terrorist attacks, All Seasons was experiencing less than ideal conditions.
"Yes, we're hurting," Maida said. "But we're not laying off people yet."
New bookings are down, she continued. "People are a little nervous about this right now."
An article written by The Associated Press said travel agents lost more than $70 million in commissions when they had to refund airline, hotel and car rental commissions immediately after the terrorist hijackings. Since then, the article continued, the American Association of Travel Agents said its members are losing $50 million each day.
John Shepard, owner and president of St. Augustine's Passport Tours, does a lot of business with people traveling to Jamaica.
Business is slow, he said.
After the attacks, customers who were in Jamaica had a hard time returning home because of tighter (airline) security inspections. Jamaica did not meet the requirements as soon as the United States wanted, so trips home were delayed, Shepard said.
"It's hard to get a real definitive grasp on what's happening ," he said. "I know it (the terrorism) will have a negative impact, but things come and they pass. This too will pass -- you just have to have a positive attitude."

The play opens with Roderigo, a rich and dissolute gentleman, complaining to Iago, an ensign, that Iago has not told him about the secret marriage between Desdemona, the daughter of a Senator named Brabantio, and Othello, a Moorish general in the Venetian army. He is upset by this development because he loves Desdemona and had asked her father for her hand in marriage. Iago hates Othello for promoting a younger man named Michael Cassio above him, and tells Roderigo that he plans to use Othello for his own advantage. Iago is also angry because he believes, or at least gives the pretence of belief, that Othello slept with his wife Emilia. Iago denounces Cassio as a scholarly tactician with no real battle experience; in contrast, Iago is a battle-tested soldier. By emphasising Roderigo's failed bid for Desdemona, and his own dissatisfaction with serving under Othello, Iago convinces Roderigo to wake Brabantio, Desdemona's father, and tell him about his daughter's elopement. Iago sneaks away to find Othello and warns him that Brabantio is coming for him.
Brabantio, provoked by Roderigo, is enraged and will not rest until he has beheaded Othello, but even before Brabantio reaches Othello news arrives in Venice that the Turks are going to attack Cyprus; therefore Othello is summoned to advise the senators. When Brabantio arrives at Othello's residence, he is met by the messengers and guards of the Duke who keep him away from Othello. The Senator has no option but to accompany Othello to the Duke's residence where he accuses Othello of seducing Desdemona by witchcraft, but Othello defends himself before an assembly that includes the Duke of Venice, Brabantio's kinsmen Lodovico and Gratiano, and various senators.
Othello explains that Desdemona became enamoured of him for the sad and compelling stories he told of his life before Venice, not because of any witchcraft. The senate is satisfied once Desdemona confirms that she loves Othello and even declares that she will accompany him wherever he goes: "That I did love the Moor to live with him," but Brabantio leaves saying that Desdemona will betray Othello: "Look to her, Moor, if thou hast eyes to see:/She has deceived her father, and may thee." By order of the Duke, Othello leaves Venice to command the Venetian armies against invading Turks on the island of Cyprus, accompanied by his new wife, his new lieutenant Cassio, his ensign Iago, and Iago's wife, Emilia as Desdemona's attendant.
The party arrives in Cyprus to find that a storm has destroyed the Turkish fleet. Othello orders a general celebration and leaves to spend private time with Desdemona. In his absence, Iago schemes to get Cassio drunk after Cassio's own admission that he cannot hold his wine. He then persuades Roderigo to draw Cassio into a fight. The resulting brawl alarms the citizenry, and Othello is forced to quell the disturbance. Othello blames Cassio for the disturbance and strips him of his rank. Cassio is distraught, but, as part of his plan to convince Othello that Cassio and Desdemona are having an affair, Iago persuades Cassio to importune Desdemona to act as an intermediary between himself and Othello, in order to convince her husband to reinstate him.
Iago now persuades Othello to be suspicious of Cassio and Desdemona. Othello drops a handkerchief (with which Desdemona was trying to bind his headache) that was Othello's first gift to Desdemona and which he has stated holds great significance to him in the context of their relationship. Emilia finds it, and gives it to Iago, at his request, unaware of what he plans to do with the handkerchief. Iago plants it in Cassio's lodgings as evidence of Cassio and Desdemona's affair. After he has planted the handkerchief, Iago tells Othello to stand apart and watch Cassio's reactions while Iago questions him about the handkerchief. Iago goads Cassio on to talk about his affair with Bianca, a local courtesan with whom Cassio has been spending time, but speaks her name so quietly that Othello believes the two men are talking about Desdemona. Bianca, on discovering the handkerchief, chastises Cassio, accusing him of giving her a second-hand gift which he received from another lover. Othello sees this, and Iago convinces him that Cassio has received the handkerchief from Desdemona. Enraged and hurt, Othello resolves to kill his wife and asks Iago to kill Cassio. Othello proceeds to make Desdemona's life miserable, hitting her in front of visiting Venetian nobles.
Roderigo complains that he has received nothing from Iago in return for his money and efforts to win Desdemona, but Iago convinces him to kill Cassio. Roderigo attacks Cassio in the street after Cassio leaves Bianca's lodgings. They fight, and Cassio wounds Roderigo. During the scuffle, Iago comes from behind Cassio and badly cuts his leg. In the darkness, Iago manages to hide his identity, and when Lodovico and Gratiano hear Cassio's cries for help, Iago joins them, pretending to help Cassio. When Cassio identifies Roderigo as one of his attackers, Iago quietly stabs Roderigo to stop him from revealing the plot. He then accuses Bianca of the failed conspiracy to kill Cassio.
In the night, Othello confronts Desdemona, and then smothers her to death in their bed. When Emilia arrives, Othello tries to justify his actions by accusing Desdemona of adultery. Emilia calls for help. The former governor Montano arrives, with Gratiano and Iago, and Emilia begins to explain the situation. When Othello mentions the handkerchief as proof, Emilia realizes what Iago has done, and she exposes him, whereupon Iago kills her. Othello, belatedly realising Desdemona's innocence, stabs Iago but not fatally, saying that he would rather have Iago live the rest of his life in pain. For his part, Iago refuses to explain his motives, vowing to remain silent from that moment on. Lodovico, a Venetian nobleman, apprehends both Iago and Othello for the murders, but Othello commits suicide with a dagger he has hidden. Lodovico then declares Gratiano to be Othello's successor and exhorts Cassio to have Iago justly punished.

I am inviting you to take part in the INTERNATIONAL FOLKLORE FESTIVAL "SUNNY BEACH 2016" that will take place in the best known Bulgarian holiday resort on the Black Sea – Sunny Beach, near the city of Nesebar.
Chernomorski Perli, in the place Sveti Vlas, where you will also perform in one festival evening, is also part of the Sunny Beach Festival.
The festival is noncompetitive and there are ensemble participants from various countries such as Bulgaria, Greece, Turkey, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro, Belarus, Ukraine, Armenia, Russia … The festival lasts for three days (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) and you can perform all three days or as agreed, but performance on the final evening of the festival is obligatory. The requirements for the festival are that you have prepared at least one piece of choreography which you can repeat all three evenings or you can have a different choreography for every festival evening. Accompanying music is welcomed, but not obligatory, because music can be played from CD as well.
On the final evening of the festival, there is a parade and afterwards is the declaring of the best male and female costume, miss and mister of the festival, as well as the best dancing couple.
The festival takes place at the center of the holiday resort Sunny Beach on a professional stage with high quality sound and lighting equipment.
You are to take a board stating the name of the group, and also, your national flag.
21.07. – 26.07., or 21.07. – 28.07.
Hotel "Estrea" – Nesebar
The hotel is situated on the southern Nesebar beach on an exclusive location, only 30 meters from the coast. Accommodation is in rooms with three or four beds with TV, fridge, bathroom and a terrace, There are also great renovated rooms, with laminate or tile floor, new furniture, PVC windows, renovated bathrooms, but there are also not renovated parts with carpeting and older furniture and woodwork. The group gets certain number of the renovated and the non renovated rooms. Meals are full-boarding – hotel menu, and my groups have meals prepared in a Serbian style, no Bulgarian spices added. The hotel is located very near to the center of Nesebar and the Old town. All of the above mentioned shows that the hotel is located on an exclusive location, no pool, with humble conditions of accommodation and meals, but also at a very low price.
7 nights – 139 Euros
Hotel "Delta beach" – Sunny Beach
The hotel is located in an exclusive hotel complex Sunny Beach, at the entrance of the complex in the direction from Nesebar, behind hotel Kotva, straight from the beach. It is separated from the beach only with a sandy dune, near to the center of the holiday resort and the center of Nesebar. There are rooms with three or four beds, exclusively accommodated, air-conditioned, cable TV, a fridge, a bathroom, a terrace with furniture to sit in. There are three hotel pools available with pool chairs, two halls where groups can practice their choreographies or do other activities that they have chosen, and also, a big dining hall. It is convenient for ensembles because of the vicinity to the centre of Nesebar and the possibility to have a good time. Food is full-board, buffet with 5 or 6 types of meal to choose from, self-service.
Respected friends, you can see that the offers of hotels for accommodation of the groups differ, offering you a cheaper version with humble accommodation conditions and food, and, the more expensive version that costs a little higher, but offers you everything that the first is missing, so it is your choice, but I can assure you from previous experience, that you won't regret if you choose the cheaper version.
7 nights – 189 Euros

I am a sucker for lace. I love how intricate it can be, yet how simple and clean it looks on everything from a wedding dress to decor. There's the traditional ways to use lace, especially for dresses, but there's also ways to play with color, texture and visual appeal. We've collected some samples below.
What are some ways you would incorporate lace into your big day? Would you use lace in any other color than white?

What folk have said about previous courses by Spiralseed
"I can totally recommend this. I've done 2 courses under Graham's tutelage and have thoroughly enjoyed each one. The second changed my life (for the better) and gave me the courage to ditch a a job that was wearing me down, in favour of self-employment that has left me happier than ever before as an adult. The Introduction to Permaculture course I did opened my eyes and broadened my outlook. Worth it for that alone, but when you add in a weekend of fun with like-minded people – priceless!"
"Graham's teaching style is open, non-ego, relaxed, positive and BRILLIANT – A natural educator, thank you!"
"If anyone is considering this course I would really recommend it"
"The course was terrific and was paced in such a way as to ensure maximum benefit"
"A wonderful weekend"
"I've done a lot of training courses and Graham is by far one of the best trainers I've had"
"I believe that we all left richer for the experience and, speaking for myself, happier and more hopeful. I am now just looking for an excuse to return, because the whole experience was just too good to have only once"

A grieving family left needing to raise more than £30,000 to bring home the body of a Blackpool barber killed in an horrific jet ski accident today said they had been stunned by the "phenomenal" response to their plight.
The family of tragic Stephen Campbell, 38, who died while on holiday in Thailand, set up a Facebook page over the weekend to help pay for his repatriation – and have already managed to raise £10,000.
Devastated relatives were shocked to learn his insurance policy did not cover jet skiing, meaning they are left having to pick up the bill to bring him back to the UK.
Mr Campbell, of Talbot Road, Layton, died when his jet ski hit a wave, causing him to lose balance and fall into a rope that was anchoring a nearby boat.
Brother-in-law Giles Ward said the family wants to get the body home as soon as it is released by the Thai authorities so they can start making funeral arrangements.
He said: "On a horrific occasion like this, his body being in another country just makes things even worse.
"It's really just a case of getting him back so we can lay him to rest and go through the grieving process you would do normally. At the end of the day, the family is in limbo.
"We're going through the grieving process but it's even more difficult because he's not in the country."
Since the appeal went online it has attracted offers of support from businesses wanting to help by donating profits or hosting fund-raising events.
So far, more than 2,000 have joined the Facebook group and Mr Ward said the family has even been contacted by a local celebrity interested in helping out.
He added: "Within a day we raised £5,000 – the response has been absolutely phenomenal. Stephen was quite a memorable character. He touched a lot of people and I think that is reflected on the Facebook page.
"The support of local businesses – pubs, clubs and all sorts of other businesses – has been brilliant.
"We just want to take the opportunity to thank everyone for all the love and support they are showing."
Mr Campbell, who ran Urban Barbers, on Talbot Road, was taken to Banglamung Hospital, near Pattaya, at around 2pm on Wednesday but died of his injuries.
The "Bring Him Home...!" Facebook page includes bank and Pay Pal account details for people to donate to the appeal.

Important Notice – 26th May 2017
Due to a technical issue, we haven't been receiving the submitted contact forms. This issue has now been resolved. If you have recently submitted contacted us via the website, could you please try again.
Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience.
Welcome to Crossing Cottage Greyhound Sanctuary
We are the Nottinghamshire and East Midlands branch of the Greyhound Trust, a national charity that was established to ensure the long-term welfare of greyhounds after retirement from racing.Every year between eight and nine thousand greyhounds, aged from 2 to 6 years, retire from racing and, thanks to the efforts of the RGT, many of them are found new homes with families.
Greyhounds make wonderful family pets. They are intelligent, lovable, fun-loving, gentle creatures and make loyal companions for people of all ages. Many people think that greyhounds need lots of exercise. But the truth is they are sprinters rather than long distance runners. Two 20-minute walks every day is enough to satisfy them, although they are also happy to go on longer walks.
Our job is to find the right homes for our charges. The dogs we have available can be seen on this site and there is also lots of information about greyhounds and how to look after them. Have a look and then give us a call – or better still come to the kennels and meet the dogs at first hand. You'll be very welcome!
Opening Times
Sat, Sun 10.00am til 1.00pm
Monday and Thursday 9.30am – 11.30am
Anyone wishing to visit the kennels out of these times should contact us to make an appointment.
Come along and get information about greyhounds, chat to current greyhound owners, meet the greyhounds and take one for a walk.
If you would rather visit during the week you could visit the same times Tuesday to Friday or if you wish to come later please call for an appointment 01636 822032
We look forward to meeting you soon!
Many thanks
John & Judith

Dogs currently looking for a home
Titch is a lovely, very pretty, kind, little black girl. She is a very gentle, quiet and shy and timid until she gets to know you.
Oscar is a medium to large brindle greyhound and he is nearly five years old. He is a very gentle and extremely chilled
Blue is a very handsome, big, happy , quite lively, special greyhound and he is four and a half years old. Blue is a very special boy, he is very happy and loves people especially when they offer fuss.
Cory is a very handsome, light fawn young man. Cory is five years old in August.
Captain is a lovely nine year old boy, who has been in kennels with us for the past 6 years. He doesn't need lots of exercise and would be happy as a house dog with a garden where he could wander around.
Can you give a home to one of our Special Dogs
We have three dogs we are desperate to find a home for. Could you help?
Meet Our Sponsors
Our thanks go out to our sponsors, whose help is vital in helping with costs of running Crossing Cottage.
A message to our sponsors
To all current greyhound and kennel sponsors – due to the successful homing of three of our long term sponsor dogs we will be contacting the sponsor of those dogs to ask them to choose another greyhound. The greyhounds that have been successfully homed are Arthur, Elvis, and Maggie. Jane Lidster will be contacting you shortly with information of new sponsor dogs. Thank you all so much for your committment and dedication to supporting our long term greyhounds in the kennels.
We have in the past not been in favour of fostering our greyhounds. However, we have some dogs in the kennels that we feel would benefit from being in a foster home.

If you're an Apple investor who still has doubts about the ability of the Apple Watch Series 2, AirPods and now the new HomePod smart speaker to outsell the iPhone, the new message is this: don't panic. Because ambient computing is on its way and 10 devices are better than one.
Similar ideas have been referred to as virtual assistants, always on tech and persistent computing (which is also something very different) over the past few years. But we like this 'ambient computing' phrase from investment bank UBS - and it nicely describes a lot of the new developments we're seeing from Apple, Amazon and Google for 2017 so let's stick to it.
What is ambient computing?
"The ambient paradigm consists of many devices providing different input/output methods that can be flexibly utilised depending on the situation (sitting, walking, running, driving)," UBS analysts told investors in early October 2016 to try to allay their fears about the direction of Apple.
"Collectively these devices offer the capability of earlier products and more delivered as a seamless user experience. Devices become extensions of one another rather than discreet, computing platforms. It is an expression of what Tim Cook has described as, 'iOS everywhere'."
In other words, we're talking about a joined up personal and smart home tech system of different devices that know you and your habits, become more and more invisible and - crucially - are always on and all around you. A network of wearables and connected gadgets that doesn't always rely on your phone. If we stick with the Apple example, this would mean your Apple Watch, AirPods, HomePod and other accessories all talking to each other, as well as an iPhone or iPad.
Examples of how we'd use such a system include sending and receiving messages and calls, getting directions, searching the web, monitoring your health and fitness, controlling gadgets and appliances at home. Generally just getting shit done in a smart, efficient way.
The end goal is to change how we interact with computers. Instead of seeking out information, it's presented to us. Instead of opening apps and scrolling through homescreens, these assistants know what we want.
So ambient computing isn't just the virtual, often voice controlled assistant, it's also relies on the cloud and smart home standards and security. And it's true that smart home automation is another big area - the idea that our homes, cars and gadget talk to each other and respond to what we need without us even being aware.
Yet this particular kind of interaction might be the key, the "glue" that holds the whole thing together and brings us into the equation. When we're ready to talk to all our gadgets, that is.
Why now?
Ambient computing, or the ambient paradigm, is having a moment. We've seen two categories really pushing this idea of a voice controlled army of gadgets in the past six months: hearables and smart home hubs.
The latest new device in hearables are the AirPods, Apple's dorky looking wireless earbuds that let you access Siri with one tap. There's also the Here One from Doppler Labs - which allows you to access Google Voice, Siri, Alexa or Cortana amongst a bunch of other futuristic features - Bragi's just announced Dash Pro (support for Alexa coming down the line) and the Sony Xperia Ear smart earbud which gives you the choice of Xperia Agent or Google Voice.
With hearables, the entry of Apple, Samsung, Sony and the like comes a year or two after Motorola, Bragi and Doppler Labs began experimenting with what a smart earbud could do. It's also not coincidental that Apple removed the headphone jack from the iPhone 7 - we might not be ready but the tech industry is definitely ready for us to go wireless. And if we're going wireless, they might as well put a computer in our ear, or at least the mic to access one.
In smart home, Apple is the latest tech giant to show its smart home cards with the announcement of its HomePod smart speaker, which it's billing as an Amazon Echo crossed with a Sonos speaker. The idea is that you mainly interact with the device via Siri voice controls and it will be able to do everything an Echo or Google Home can do plus some extra music features when it lands in December.
Meanwhile, Amazon is building on the success of the ever improving Echo, second gen Echo Dot and - at this year's CES - Alexa in everything with the Echo Show, which adds a screen to the mix. Google is stacking its smart, voice controlled speaker Home with similar features while Microsoft is hoping its not too late with Cortana-powered speakers, which offer Skype calls and Microsoft Office integration, like the Harman Kardon Invoke.
And let's not forget virtual assistants like Siri on the Apple Watch, Google Assistant on Android Wear and Alexa on the CoWatch. Smartwatches overall aren't selling as much as smartphones, which can also access assistants but the Apple Watch at least is selling in substantial numbers.
The ground work for this smart home bonanza was done mainly by Amazon in proving that enough people are comfortable buying and using an always on, always listening device in their homes. The Echo also encouraged more purchases of other smart home kit, a very good sign. Now the conversation is less about individual gadgets and more about which smart home platform to choose and build up over time.
Apple vs Google vs Amazon
Because, who else? As we've mentioned, companies like Sony and Microsoft have their own ambient assistance software in the form of Agent and Cortana but we're yet to see a breakout device on bodies or in homes. For now, the main players are Apple, Google and Amazon. Or Siri, Assistant and Alexa. And what's interesting is that each one is currently ahead in a different area.
Apple is winning on wearable tech. It has just leapfrogged over Fitbit in sales and with the sensor, hardware and UI improvements of the Series 2 and watchOS 3, the Apple Watch should find its way onto many more wrists than the original. As for AirPods, the early signs are that they're doing pretty well though I'm sure plenty of people are waiting for version 2.
Now until effectively this week there was a bigger problem with Siri in that many people gave up on it. But the promise of HomePod coming in December, its Apple Home app (which hooks up to the Watch, iPhone, iPad and Apple TV) and "works with" program should be enough to push iPhone users to give the ambient Apple Home a go.
Google was, and still is, the one to beat in terms of its voice recognition, natural language processing, artificial intelligence and knowledge graph technologies. It's Google, it has its software on Android phones, Android Wear watches, baked into Google search on desktop, it's handles more languages than anyone else, the list goes on.
Sure, Google has Nest devices - and works with Nest - but so far, Google has struggled to find that one killer product to get people hooked on what is now Google Assistant. Google Home has a shot.
Onto Amazon. It already has a voice product in people's homes - the Echo - and plenty of interest in what it's doing next. It has the Dash buttons too and also its Fire TV stick, an Apple TV and Chromecast competitor, too, as well as Alexa devices from many more companies now including GE, LG, Triby, August and Lenovo.
What it doesn't have is the wearable tech or mobile element. The indie CoWatch smartwatch runs Alexa and is now on sale (though Cronologics was acquired by Google last year) plus Blocks has hinted at running Alexa on its modular smartwatch too. This could be the next piece of the puzzle for Amazon.

In the next twelve months, even the next six months, it will be incredibly interesting to see how Apple, Amazon and Google pursue the gaps in their ambient computing systems. Releasing more devices to extend existing products. Wooing new users with their assistant's superpowers. And convincing partners, investors and ultimately us that we can entrust our entire digital and physical lives to one company.

Hero rapper saves girl from sexual assault – and is ARRESTED
A RAPPER who claims he saved a girl from being sexually assaulted was duly arrested by police for his good deed.
Moise Morancy, a hip hop musician and actor, said he stopped a drunk man from groping a girl on a bus in New York.
Moise claims he hit the man and held him down until the police arrived.
But he was bewildered to be arrested for his good deed.
Footage posted on Facebook on Wednesday, which went viral, shows Moise shouting at the man for "touching a girl without permission".
He wrote on Facebook: "So I'm on my way home from the studio finalising my debut mixtape and I'm sitting at the back of the bus when this drunk guy gets on, saying all types of sexual s*** to this little girl sitting next to me.
"At first he started caressing her hand and I saw how uncomfortable it made her… so she let go and put her hands in her pocket.
"He then proceeded to forcibly do it again. In the process of doing so, he hit my knee and I told him 'Yo, bro. Don't touch me'."
Moise said he was racially abused by the man who carried on touching the girl's leg.
The rapper says he then hit him and pinned him down.
Police arrived and arrested both men before releasing the musician without charge.
"I urge other men to step in to intervene when someone's being sexually assaulted. It's disgusting"Moise Morancy
He added: "I had to do what I had to do for the girl.
"And I urge other men to step in to intervene when someone's being sexually assaulted. It's disgusting."
Pablo Levano, 36, has been charged with forcible touching.

In a statement published in Kantipur's Saptahik, Keki Adhikari has told that nobody has propose her yet. She also told that she hasn't received an love letter either.
In her school days, she used to study in the school owned by her father. The principal of the school was her mother. So, no guy ever could gather courage enough to propose or write love letter to her.
Although it has been four years since she started acting and dancing and many have liked her acting and dances, nobody has proposed her yet.

In the Shadow of the Moon | 2007
One of the defining passages of American history, the Apollo Space Program literally brought the aspirations of a nation to another world; this documentary presents footage and candid interviews with the astronauts who ...more
Jump to
Discovery Channel
Between 1968 and 1972, nine American spacecraft voyaged to the Moon, and 12 men walked upon its surface. They remain the only human beings to have stood on another world. This chronicle brings together, possibly for the first and last time, the surviving crew members from every single Apollo mission that flew to the Moon; it also allows them to tell their story in their own words. First-hand testimony is interwoven with visual archival material which has been re-mastered from the original NASA film footage--much of it never used before. As a result, this space 'epic' communicates the daring, the danger, the pride, and the promise of this extraordinary era in history when the whole world literally looked up at America.

State media said early on Tuesday, local time, that Mr Kim visited a residential district and a scientific establishment.
The failure of Mr Kim to appear on TV since 3 September has led to a mass of speculation about what could have happened to the 31-year-old.
Most North Korea watchers believed the leader's absence from the public eye was because he was suffering from illness.
But others suspected power struggles at the heart of one of the most secretive regimes in the world was the explanation.
The report from the official KCNA news agency did not touch on the leader's prolonged absence from public view.
His last public appearance was to attend a concert with his wife.
Since then he has missed a key political anniversary and a recent session of the country's parliament.
The report - typical of the way the state media discusses Mr Kim's activities - said he "gave field guidance" to workers at a new facility called Wisong Scientists Residential District.
It added that he also visited the newly-built Natural Energy Institute of the State Academy of Sciences.
However, Sky's Asia Correspondent, Mark Stone, has cast doubt over whether the images can be trusted.
"There's nothing to prove beyond doubt that the images were taken on Monday," he said.
"They could be unpublished photos from a previous visit - albeit a recent one, given that he is carrying a walking stick. The North Korean regime also has form in releasing doctored or inaccurate photographs."
It is not known on which day the visit was made.
Mr Kim was quoted as saying: "Our scientists are patriots who are devoting all their lives to building a rich and powerful nation."
Among the conditions he has been rumoured to be suffering from are gout, obesity, a pulled tendon and fractured ankles.
His country's state news agency admitted he was suffering "discomfort" but has not elaborated.
Diplomatic sources had already ruled out a coup, as there has been no evidence that one had taken place, but it is thought feasible that his sister could have been in charge if Mr Kim had been too ill to rule.

Christmas is a beautiful time to celebrate the birth of Your Son. It's a wonderful time to spend with the ones that we love. But for some it's a painful reminder of those they have lost. For others it's a lonely season without family or friends.
And so we bring them before you today. The brokenhearted, the lonely, the homeless, the hurt… the many who are suffering with poverty, sickness, and loss… those who have lost their jobs… those who are mourning a broken marriage… those who have lost their parents, their spouse, their children, their friends…
Bring comfort to each one of them, Lord. Remind them how precious they are. Bring peace to each home, and healing to the sick. Comfort the ones who have lost their children, give rest to their souls. Help those who are seeking employment or facing a layoff. Send help to those who can't feed their family, and those who can't feed themselves. For the many who have lost loved ones to terrorism and war, help them to find comfort in You.
In the name of Jesus we pray. Amen.

Innovative Upgrade Module Program Adds Advanced Technologies to Existing NAD Products
NAD's Modular Design Construction™ and Upgrade Module Program offer existing NAD AV customers an easy upgrade path to the latest technologies
SHARON, MA, Nov. 10, 2008 - NAD Electronics, the highly regarded manufacturer of high -performance audio/video components, has introduced a unique Upgrade Program enabling dealers and installers to offer custom configurations to owners of NAD's high -value A/V products. Each Upgrade Module allows an owner to install one or more elements of NAD's innovative new mechanical architecture, Modular Design Construction (MDC), into select NAD A/V Receivers and Preamp -Processors.
Developed exclusively by NAD, MDC provides numerous benefits and advantages. It greatly improves products' performance, functionality and ease of use, while protecting them against premature obsolescence. It also simplifies product servicing, and enables NAD to more quickly bring to market new "advanced technology" features.
MDC updates NAD's Building Block Concept, a powerful design approach the company pioneered more than 30 years ago. The Building Block Concept allowed NAD's integrated stereos to accommodate more powerful amplifiers while retaining the preamp section of the integrated amp. MDC reinvents the concept by combining NAD's traditional benchmark -performance pedigree with leading -edge, feature -driven technologies, yielding the critical operational functionality today's video -centric world requires.
Kicking off the MDC Upgrade Program are four plug -in modules that add valuable features and capabilities while enhancing input and output connectivity. These first four modules cover digital audio and HDMI functions, component and analog video functions, and two -channel and multi -channel analog audio functions. Additional modules are planned.
The announced modules include two options for upgrading audio performance and two options for upgrading video performance. By giving our customers the option of spending only for those features they really want, the benefit is obvious. It also allows them to maintain their initial investment by upgrading to new technology at a fraction of the cost of replacing the entire receiver.
The MDC AM 100 Module features a Dual Core digital signal processor (DSP), Audyssey Setup, and decoding for Dolby Digital Plus, TrueHD, DTS High Definition and Master Audio formats. Its connections include 3 coax digital audio inputs, 3 optical digital audio inputs, 1 coax output and 1 optical output.
The MDC AM 200 Module features compatibility with Audyssey MultEQ XT, Audyssey Dynamic EQ, which preserves the full impact of movie soundtracks; Audyssey Dynamic Volume, which prevents large jumps in volume when TV channels or video sources are changed; and Audyssey MultEQ Pro. It includes two Dual Core DSPs, and decoding for Dolby Digital Plus, TrueHD, DTS High Definition and Master Audio formats. Its connections include 3 coax digital audio inputs, 3 optical digital audio inputs, 1 coax output and 1 optical output.
The MDC VM 100 Module includes switching for 4 HDMI sources and converts the standard -definition analog video inputs to HDMI output. It supports all resolutions up to 1080p/60, and de -interlaces SD video from 480i and 576i to 480p and 576p. With full HDMI repeating functionality the VM 100 allows audio to be processed in the NAD Receiver while sending the video signal to the HD display device. It also allows for full On -Screen -Display.
The MDC VM 200 Module converts SD analog video to HDMI output, and supports all resolutions up to 1080p/60. It comes equipped with a VXP Broadcast Studio Quality Image Processor capable of motion adaptive de -interlacing with edge interpolation, which eliminates the jagged edge effects common in lesser image/scaling processors; film mode detection with output cadence generation, which gives video the smoothness of film; programmable scaling with aspect ratio conversion, which perfectly matches a video source with a video display; frame conversion to and from any refresh rate (in NTSC and PAL), and advanced noise reduction and detail enhancement, which enrich the display of analog video sources. The module includes an HDMI Repeater, 4 HDMI inputs, and 1 HDMI output.
Owners of NAD's flagship Theater Series components - the T 175 Preamp -Tuner -Processor and T 785, T 775 and T 765 AV Receivers - will be able to upgrade these products through the Upgrade Module Program. In the first quarter of 2009 new HD versions of its Theater Series A/V Receivers and Surround Sound Preamplifiers will incorporate these new modules and also allow for further dealer installed customization. The MDC modules will be available from authorized NAD dealers and custom installers in January 2009 and priced as follows:
