Why aren't more media companies offering job sharing to get experience back in the door?With the media industry churn and talent drain a constant issue Lucy Formosa Morgan asks why more companies aren't open to job sharing. There's rarely a shortage of applicants for coordinator positions however when it comes to recruiting experienced middle / senior level people, the talent bank seems to dry up. Agencies can struggle to fill vacancies for months or end up having to recruit from overseas. So if we have plenty of juniors that we're devoting time and money to training up, where are they going? Why is there such a shortage of good talent out there?
Marketers are the ones whose reputations are most at risk if they are complicit in scam advertisingWith questions being raised over the integrity of some awards entries in recent weeks, former creative director Darren Woolley says scam can be as damaging for marketers as the agencies involved. Scam awards entries have come to industry attention again, following the most recent Cannes Lions Awards. In the process, several high profile advertisers have been associated with their agencies' entries. But what are the implications for the advertiser? It is a standard response that advertisers are not really interested in creative awards. But the fact is that marketers are human and those that have healthy and close working relationships with their agencies actually enjoy seeing them being recognised, especially for work they may have created together.
Terry Savage defends debated Cannes Lions entries saying 'Super Bowl ads run once'In a Q&A conducted by email, Terry Savage, chairman of the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity, defends the integrity of the competition and answers questions around scam ads following an investigation by Mumbrella into a series of ads from Australia entered into the Press category which ran just once in regional media. What is your definition of scam? "We require the work to have been approved by the client and to have used paid Media in the execution, if there is a query we get validation via the agency the client and the Media schedule that the work has run and complied within our entry rules. In the case of self promotion and NGO that is not the case."
Australian Women's Weekly editor on how its latest cover has changed industry attitudesThe cover of the July edition of the Australian Women's Weekly features the image of ultra-marathon bushfire survivor Turia Pitt, a move which surprised many in an industry driven by image. Editor-in-chief Helen McCabe spoke to Miranda Ward about how the cover came about, and its effect not only on the public, but also the beauty and fashion industries as we. The July cover of the Australian's Women's Weekly has done more to market "what the heart and soul of the magazine is" than anything else the magazine's editor-in-chief Helen McCabe has done in her five years at the helm. Speaking to Mumbrella about the July edition which featured Turia Pitt, a survivor of the bushfire that swept through an ultra-marathon in Western Australia's Kimberly region in September 2011, McCabe said the cover is "a really strong signal to market that this magazine is committed to Australian women, quality stories, independent journalism, long-form story telling and quality writing.
If you don't want to enter real work into awards, then fuck off and be an artistIn this guest post, awards jury veteran Matt Batten, a former ECD of Wunderman Australia, argues that the practice of scam advertising - raised by Mumbrella in recent days - hurts the whole industry. Reading from 10,553 miles away – that's 16,983km in the metric – I'd like to commend you on your dogged determination to find answers to the burning questions surrounding some of Australia's most intriguing Cannes Lions winners this year. Some say that this is the way of the world (at least our small part in it) and that creativity should be let free upon the award shows regardless of whether or not it was a legitimate response to a brief or a proactive project to help solve a genuine business problem for a real client – or a made-up ad for a brand that had no idea of its existence.
Does culture really eat strategy for breakfast?Good startups often point to their culture as a driver of their success, but Eaon Pritchard asks whether that culture can be derived without a clear strategy? Culture, in an organisational sense, is usually interpreted as the collective behaviours, attitudes and beliefs that — when mixed together — create a particular set of norms within said organisation. Obviously there can be 'good' culture and 'bad' culture.
Five things Wicked Campers needs to do online right nowWicked Campers has been in the midst of a media controversy over the last few days. Sebastian Vasta takes a look at how the brand could better manage the online and media crisis. The latest cry to end Wicked Campers' misogynist toilet humour is certainly not the first time the budget backpacker van company has been in trouble. But it's certainly the loudest the online outrage has ever been.
Cut here: Reshaping the ABCAfter the ABC unveiled its first round of cuts after having its funding cut in the last budget Ben Goldsmith of the Queensland University of Technology looks at how it might look in the future, in this cross-posting from The Conversation. Monday's announcement that the ABC will make 80 positions redundant is just the latest move in an enforced process of change to the public service broadcaster. It has a long way yet to run. The announcement finally put the lie to Tony Abbott's election eve pledge, live on national television, that there would be "no cuts to the ABC or SBS". In concert with other recent announcements, it seems clear that public broadcasting – and in particular the ABC – is squarely in the government's sights.

The future of Facebook is forensicMarketers should stop using Facebook as a mass reach tool and start thinking about conversions not conversations argues Jack Smyth. Forget conversations – the future of Facebook is forensic By now you're probably sick of the same articles recycling the same Facebook statistics. Over 12 million Australian users, spending on average 8.5 hours every week and so on. We all know Facebook offers massive reach.
Two stats about Netflix that should scare Foxtel and QuickflixWith US streaming site Netflix poised to enter the Australian market next year Andrianes Pinantoan from Pocketbook crunched some numbers to see try and ascertain what the local pay-TV market already looks like now. Netflix is set to enter the Australian market, but that doesn't stop a few enterprising Australians from accessing it now. Actually, it's more than a few.
Family Feud's return confirms the state of game shows in AustraliaIn this cross-posting from The Conversation Matthew Wade argues the return of Family Feud shows Australia's TV networks are not interested in testing their audiences intellectually. Family Feud returns to our television screens tonight as part of Ten's desperate scramble to remain a viable entity, and is scheduled to compete with Seven and Nine's main news bulletins at 6pm.
An open letter to the staff of DDB Sydney and Saatchi & Saatchi SydneyIn this open letter, Mumbrella's Tim Burrowes reaches out to the many excellent staff working at the award-winning agencies DDB and Saatchi & Saatchi. So last week, you may have noticed we gave some coverage to your Press Lions-winning work on behalf of McDonald's and Panasonic. Congratulations again. Some of you even got a namecheck in the credits. I'm talking to you,
You want fries with that? Creative careers are still out there, for nowYoung people from poorer backgrounds looking to get into careers in creative industries could be amongst the most hard-hit by the government's new 'earn or learn' social security policies argues Ruth Bridgstock, senior lecturer at Queensland University of Technology in a cross-posting from The Conversation. The old jokes about creative arts and humanities graduates serving at the local fast food outlet are hard to put to rest – they speak to long-held concerns around the value of creative degrees, and to worries that students of creative arts programs aren't employable when they graduate.
25 things that have changed about journalism during my quarter century as a hackMumbrella's Tim Burrowes began his media career 25 years ago today. He reflects on the changes journalism has seen during that time. A quarter of a century ago, I was feeling pretty nervous. A shy 18-year-old, who tended to blush if somebody spoke to me, I'd somehow mumbled my way into my first job in newspapers.
Joel Madden gets social
Here's a great example of how The Voice's Joel Madden turned TV into a two-way conversation with a big social media supporter of the show.
Great work.
It's only had 1500 views so far – but I bet it gets heaps more.

About Apache
The proliferation of high-performance mobile devices — such as smartphones and tablet computers — along with the trend toward smaller electronic systems are driving engineers to design and deliver more power-efficient products with extended battery life, while still satisfying increasing performance requirements. Meanwhile, rise in power consumption and electricity costs from the IT infrastructure required to support growing mobile connectivity demands more energy-efficient products. In addition, the explosion in system-to-system wireless communications is amplifying the amount of noise within and between ICs, threatening the system with malfunction or failure.
The Apache suite provides innovative power analysis and optimization solutions that enable engineers to design and deliver products meeting stringent power specification limits, while still reliably and consistently delivering power to the entire system and mitigating failures or performance degradation caused by power-induced noise. Apache's comprehensive suite of integrated software and methodologies spans a full spectrum of power, noise and reliability solutions, including power reduction, power and signal integrity, thermal management, and EM, ESD and EMI verification, from early in the design phase through final system sign-off.
Apache's differentiated platforms address the unique challenges associated with various phases of the IC and electronic system design process, including RTL-level power budgeting; IP power delivery integrity validation; SoC integration and power noise sign-off; and IC package/board power and signal integrity, reliability verification and cost optimization. Apache's accurate and compact models enable RTL-to-silicon, analog-to-digital, and chip–package–system power methodologies that facilitate effective coordination among multiple engineering teams and help to drive the electronic ecosystem.
The combined Apache and ANSYS suite provides even more functionality. It enables R&D teams to solve chip power delivery problems, package/board thermal/electromagnetic extraction, system enclosures and time-domain circuit analysis. Multiphysics capabilities impart the ability to simulate various physical phenomena across chips, packages and systems, including power optimization, signal integrity, electrostatic discharge (ESD), electromagnetic interference/electromagnetic compatibility (EMI/EMC), heat transfer, fluid dynamics and structural mechanics. The multi-user aspect provides the simulation platform and collaboration tools that enable electronics, electrical and mechanical engineers — along with managers and executives from different divisions within the organization — to collaborate in designing increasingly complex products.

Hebrew (Classical)
In the Classical Hebrew major, you will learn how to translate and understand texts in Classical Hebrew. The Classical Hebrew texts are primarily from the Bible, but over the course of your major, you will have the opportunity to study all the varieties of pre-Modern Hebrew, from the Hebrew of the Dead Sea Scrolls to that of ancient inscriptions, the Mishnah, and medieval commentators on the Bible. In addition to the study of texts in Hebrew, you have the option to add other units of study, especially from the Biblical Studies program. By the end of your major you will have mastered the ability to translate a wide variety of Classical Hebrew texts and will be aware of the academic resources available to support high level study of these texts. In addition you will have acquired specific skills for understanding the meaning and style of each of the varieties of texts.
Study plan
A major in Classic Hebrew requires at least 36 senior credit points including 24 credit points from core units of study.
Junior units of study (1000 level):
In your first year you complete two junior units: HBRW1111 Hebrew Classical B1 and HBRW1112 Hebrew Classical B2. These are the foundation for senior units of study by teaching the skills necessary to translate Classical Hebrew texts. They are beginners' level units which lay the groundwork of grammar and translation skills by working with Biblical texts of a relatively easy level, generally narrative.
If you have more advanced skills you will need to consult the Department to be placed in the appropriate senior unit.
Senior units of study (2000 and 3000 level):
In second and third year you take senior units of study which build on the basic skills taught in junior units. You complete four core units of study: HBRW2623, HBRW2625, HBRW3601, HBRW3602. These units of study continue the study of Biblical texts by looking at different genres not only for their linguistic and stylistic features but also with an eye to understanding how each genre communicates its meaning, covering prophetic (HBRW2623), Psalmic (HBRW3601), legal (HBRW2625) and non-Psalms poetic (HBRW3602) texts. In addition to the study of biblical texts these core units work through each of the attested varieties of pre-Modern Hebrew, focusing on the distinctive linguistic features of each group of texts compared to Biblical Hebrew, as well as the current scholarly debates in the study of each: Mishnaic Hebrew (HBRW2623), Qumran (Dead Sea Scrolls) Hebrew (HBRW3601), ancient inscriptions (HBRW2625), and Medieval Hebrew (HBRW 3602). These units of study are offered in a two year rotation. Whichever sequence you follow, you will experience a progressive increase of knowledge not only about each individual type of Hebrew literature, but also in the depth of your understanding of the methodological issues in studying literature in Classical Hebrew as a whole.
To complete a major, you need to add two more senior level units of study to the four core units. This can be done either by drawing on the Core Biblical Studies units (BBCL2603, BBCL2607, BBCL3601, BBCL3602), or units in Hebrew (HBRW2631 and HBRW2632) or Syriac (HBRW2651 and HBRW2652).
Visit the Hebrew (Ancient) subject area page in the online handbook for more information.

Kreistor wrote:Your "mathematical" argument is, essentially, "Let's assume Luck decides who wins a fight. If Stanley has only a 0.3% chance of surviving, then Stanley must be extremely lucky. Therefore he is extremely lucky." It's a cyclic argument. Stanley is assumed to be lucky so you can prove that he's lucky. It falls apart because the assumption that he has no Talent in combat or tactics is unprovable.
(MarbitChow begins typing a carefully constructed explanation detailing why Kreistor's summation of his argument is incorrect. After several minutes of furious typing, he glances over, and sees the cartoon he has posted to remind him of his personal obsession...)
(MarbitChow sighs, reluctantly slings his laptop over his shoulder, and begins hitchhiking down the road. Softly, in the background, the theme from the Incredible Hulk TV series can be heard.)

She could have simply disbanded the units via thinking about it. As Stanley has threatened to do many times. Furthermore she presumably had archers which can fire over hexes off turn. BTW, she had a hat. And gems. Furthermore we commonly see payments to other sides with out any sort of gem movement. Now its possible that this could not be done in this case, but the gems could have been sent to TV.Oberon wrote:As to helping out Jetstone and/or TV with funds, that potential option did not fit in with the efficient accomplishment of her goal. She used her treasury to promote garrison units and sent them outside the city so that they would disband and not freeze when the city fell (when Bea died). There is also no evidence to suggest that she could have done this even had she had spare funds to spend after ensuring that even her garrison units would not be decrypted and wearing GK livery. I don't recall her having a hat, and she had no moneymancer to make her gems. And I don't recall any other method of loaning shmuckers has been described.
If she had an escape plan she could have used that to preserve as much as possible for a counter-strike against GK*. She did not. Stanley did better than her in this regard. She should have had a better option. She did not. It does not matter that she did the best she could (and she didn't even manage that); she should have been prepared to flee to safety. She fails compared to Stanley because suicide was her best option.Oberon wrote:Bea had a goal, and used her resources in the best way she could to accomplish that goal. Her goal was to provide the GK juggernaut with as little fodder for their war machine as was possible. She arrived at this goal after witnessing the power of the arkenpliers and decryption, and she very intelligently arrived at the correct conclusion: If you cannot beat GK, you will be forced to join them.
*Yes she can assume that a counter-strike was happening. If there was never going to be a counter-strike then all is vain, hence assuming wrongly causes no loss.

Sideshows involving Rice and Dungy stain NFL's image
Pro football training camps should be all about, well, football. But the talk around the NFL is about Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice's two-game suspension, Tony Dungy's indelicate remarks about Michael Sam and Jim Irsay's largesse. What kind of league is Roger Goodell running?

A dark wave mix for a black heart
Sometimes the divisions between the goth sub-genres are really confusing. I have participated in lengthy debates as to what precisely is apocalyptic folk, why goths cringe at any allusion to heavy metal and what the fuck one means when one says one likes electronic body music… Who knows if these songs will meet your personal qualifications for dark wave, but they are without question fit for a black heart.

text: Well I have a Technics SL-DD2 with an audio-technica AT101EP cartridge. I am looking at the Grado Green cartridge I can get for $60. I don't know if I am wasting my time on the Technics, and should look at another TT, or what. I can do the upgrade on the cart real cheap, but I don't know if the difference would be that great. The audio-technica is a P mount dual magnet type. Any help would be appreciated.

In Detail
Drupal is ideally equipped to be used as a base system for creating a custom social networking site like Facebook and MySpace. While these large social networks have their place, niche social networking web sites can help promote businesses, products, projects, and hobbies of any nature.
This book provides careful instructions and clear explanations to take you through the setup and management of your social network site, covering topics from users to marketing to maintenance. It will help you create your own social networking site, suitable for whatever audience you decide!
This book will take you from the very basics of both Drupal and Social Networking right through to more complicated aspects, like creating your own custom design and features for the site. With no experience of Drupal required, the book will introduce you to this award-winning CMS and carefully take you through the steps to create a social networking site from it. As the book progresses, you will learn how to add to and expand your social networking site, adding more features and adding value for your users, and how to make your users feel part of the community. Social networking web sites rely on their users contributing to the site, and this book helps you structure a site in a way users can easily and enjoyable contribute to the site – creating a powerful social network.
The book begins with the fundamental concepts of a Social Networking site, and how we can use Drupal to create such a site. It then goes through installing Drupal before looking at expanding the out-of-the-box feature set with third-party modules designed for Social Networking. Once the web site is running, it looks at securing the Social Network, deploying it on the Internet, and keeping it running and well maintained. It doesn't stop there however; as Social Networks rely on their user base to run and become successful, the book also covers marketing the Social Network using Search Engine Optimization, Online Marketing, and a range of new Social Media.
A complete walkthrough for creating, developing, growing and maintaining a Social Networking web site using Drupal 6
This book is packed with clear instructions and careful explanations for creating a powerful Social Networking web site using Drupal 6. With each chapter, you add new features and content until the Social Network is ready to be released to the Internet where it can grow.
By the end of this book, you will have a powerful Social Network either like that of the case-study, or of your own design based on the setup and features the book walks through.
Who this book is for
This book is aimed at anyone looking to create their own social networking web site, including:
- Businesses – building a Social Network around a product or service can improve your company profile and increase customer loyalty. Alternatively, an internal social network gives you employees a place to keep resources, discuss ideas, raise concerns, and keep up to date on company policies.
- Hobbyists – create a community around your hobbies and interests; create a local or distributed user group.

Professor Barry J Cooper, who in a few months will become the President of ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants), has written a chapter about the future of the accountancy profession, in a high level publication jointly produced by The Centre for Accounting, Governance and Sustainability (CAGS) at the University of South Australia and the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Australia.
The publication is part of the University's esteemed Academic Leadership series, which brings the key issues in Australian accounting education to the fore.
ACCA's chapter looks to the future, and details a number of emerging pathways for the next generation of accountants, in the context of six key areas. These include ACCA's history and background; its current vision; future trends and emerging pathways; integration of ethics into the ACCA qualification framework; integrated reporting; and the impact of technology on education and learning.
Professor Cooper says: 'It was an immense privilege to be asked to contribute to this esteemed journal, and I would like to thank my colleague at ACCA, Mike Walsh, for his insights in co-authoring this chapter. By offering its qualifications worldwide ACCA has grown, especially in the last 20 years. It is critical for ACCA to be focussed on what employers value and what employees need. Supporting members with a qualification that makes them desirable in the workplace is at the heart of ACCA's on-going goal.'
ACCA's input to the journal also highlights that ACCA's original founding values, established in 1904, still stand today – namely to provide opportunity to all people of merit and application, regardless of their background. The five core values that resonate with members, students and ACCA staff around the world are highlighted in the report, those of opportunity, integrity, diversity, innovation and accountability.
The chapter ends by saying that the growth of the accountancy profession is subject to several variables, some of which are unpredictable.
Professor Cooper concludes: 'While we cannot predict the future, we can make very good guesses so we are all prepared as we can be. Some examples we illustrate include the demand for higher level business and management skills amongst finance professionals; technological advancements and their effect on learning; the demand from international accounting firms as well as other multinationals for uniform professional accounting qualifications - at least in respect of non-regulated functions; the convergence of accounting and auditing standards on an international basis; and the demand from growing economies such as China for professional accountants.'
The journal sets out the pathways that have emerged and will continue to emerge with respect to the ACCA qualification, as it continues to position itself as a major global force in the education and training of accountants throughout the world.

If you are wondering what the best way is to get the amount of Folic Acid you need everyday, you may be at a loss. Getting what you need from the food you eat may be tough. I know this may sound weird, but hear me out on this, because I've spent a lot of time researching this. It wasn't until recently that I figured it all out.
Getting enough from the food you eat is due to the fact that this folate, vitamin B9, is destroyed quickly through cooking and in the ways we store our food. The downside to this is that Folic Acid is a highly important nutrient that is needed desperately by our bodies to maintain a variety of vital functions. What are the best sources of Folic Acid and where is the best place to get it?

I picked one of these up last Friday along with a couple other DACs and feel like I've spent enough time with them to offer an some thoughts. I ended up comparing this player and a couple DACs over the last few days. I had this player and borrowed the TEAC DAC and a Wyred4Sound W4S DAC1. I also threw the Peachtree DAC-IT into the mix.
The Oppo is the best sounding source and/or DAC I've ever owned, period. Out of the box it was great, if maybe a tad harsh on the top end. Any harshness is long since gone now, the sound is very smooth and detailed with a great soundstage and air around the instruments. By comparison, the 83 that it replaced sounded a little congested and thin.
I"m not going to do a full comparison with the other DACs here, but will offer a summary. I found that the Oppo and W4S1 sound very similar, enough such that I can barely hear a difference between the two playing the same material. I don't know much about the W4S2 so can't comment how it would compare, but the Oppo and DAC1 sound very similar. If I had more time (The W4S is already now gone and I only had a day to play with those together) I'd probably be able to dig and find some differences, but in my given time didn't really hear any. Compared to the Peachtree DAC-IT the Oppo is more neutral sounding. The Peachtree still sounds great, but compared to the Oppo there's more air and resolution, like a very slight veil has been lifted from the sound. In comparison to all of the above the Teac sounded kinda lifeless to me, probably very accurate but sounds sorta flat.
So the comparison really is to the W4S and if all I needed was a DAC then the W4S would probably be good enough and would be my choice since it's cheaper. But given the extra functionality in the Oppo, if you want that extra stuff then it's a no brainer. The fact that it plays BluRays, SACDs, is a great CD player, is a great upscaler for DVDs and for video from other devices using the HDMI inputs, has inputs including USB to act as a standalone DAC, and finally as I discovered this morning is also a network player.
I got it set up this morning so that it streams music directly from JRiver, using the JRemote app on the iPad. So now I have the same functionality and convenience that I had before with the Squeezebox and then the Airport, but with a direct link into the Oppo and with yet another component removed from the mix. I confirmed with Oppo that music streamed over the network goes through the same DAC and gets handled in the same way as something via the other inputs, and my ears are telling me the same thing.
This thing is awesome, to have all this functionality and sound this good in a single box is unreal. In case you can't tell, I like it.

The San Antonio River Authority is using a new contest beginning this week to create awareness for the benefits of Low Impact Development.
"Initially we're targeting the private developer community and their engineers, architects, and landscape architects," says Stephen Graham with the San Antonio River Authority.
District 4 City Councilman Rey Saldaña will soon officially announce his bid for re-election to city council.
The 26 year old is finishing his freshman term on the council, having worked toward increased police presence, supported the city's Pre-K 4 SA measure and pushed for the 500-acre renovation of a former landfill -- now the Pearsall Park -- in southwest San Antonio.
USAA has teamed up with Texas A&M to find out why people take their eyes off the road when they don't have to.
The cooperative survey is an attitudinal study designed to learn what behaviors distract drivers, and why they continue to engage in distracted driving even when they know it's dangerous.
Texas lawmakers are looking to save Texas state parks from closing down by making sure that taxpayer funds intended for state parks get there.
When you go to a sporting goods store and buy a canoe there is a little tax that supports the Texas park system, since a person would be likely to enjoy paddling that canoe on Texas state waterways.
Over the years the state diverted that park tax money and held it in order to balance the state budget on paper.
In the current state budget, $184 million pegged for parks was diverted to help balance the overall budget.
San Antonio Mayor Julián Castro announced he'll be seeking a third term leading city hall, and just like his keynote at the DNC, Castro was introduced by his twin brother, Congressman Joaquín Castro.
"You know, over the last four years I have watched my brother do every single thing that he can to make San Antonio the greatest American city we can possibly be," said Joaquín. "Whether it's confronting our challenges to bringing more jobs to San Antonio, education – with Pre-K 4 SA, healthcare with combating childhood obesity."
State Senator Carlos Uresti's proposed SB313 would change the legal smoking age in Texas from 18 to 21. Uresti said his bill is about saving lives and saving money.
"On average, over 24,500 Texas die every year from smoking related illnesses," the senator said, referring to a fact sheet provided by the Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids.
There is still speculation that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will run for President in 2016, but if she does decide to pursue the White House, a new poll finds that she would win in Texas.
No Democrat has been able to claim the electoral votes of Texas since Jimmy Carter squeaked out a victory over Gerald Ford in 1976, but according to the data gathered by Public Policy Polling, Hillary Clinton would win in Texas if that election was held today.
Residents are opposed to the densely-designed neighborhood, saying it would adversely affect the water supply and endangered species. Last year, County Commissioners postponed their approval to do further research and to put pressure on the developers to address the concerns of the surrounding property owners.
Residents and water conservationists had expressed concern that the property over the Edwards Aquifer had a high impervious cover ratio that would cause harm to the water supply.
We often speak of certain Brazilian composers suffering in the shadow of Heitor Villa-Lobos. After all, he was the one who possessed not only musical genius, but also the ability to attract attention.
He was, in many ways, bigger than life, which made it a struggle for other very able composers to be seen and heard. These others included Camargo Guarnieri, Franciso Mignone and Claudio Santoro. The music of these composers is still struggling to be heard outside of Brazil.

Fun was built into every millimetre of the thinnest, lightest iPod touch. It does more than ever, more powerfully than ever, from playing games to playing music to just playing around. And everything looks tremendous on the 4-inch Retina display.
For the first time, iPod touch is made from the same kind of anodised aluminium used in the MacBook line. And it's made the same way too: by machining the enclosure from a single piece of aluminium. The first thing you'll notice about iPod touch is its barely-there weight. Then its supersmooth finish. Then all those Apple details — like the highly polished bevelled edges. And iPod touch is made from one of the strongest grades of aluminium there is. Which means that it not only looks and feels incredible, it's tough enough to tag along on more than a few nights out.
There's a reason these iPod touch colours are so incredibly rich and vibrant. It's because they're bonded to the aluminium — not just painted on the surface. So you see saturated colour that still lets the lustre of the metal shine through. Which gives you a material that shows off the colour, and a colour that shows off the material.
The Retina display is tall but not wide. That means everything you do on iPod touch can be a one-handed operation, and your thumb has room to roam. The display is advanced, with finger-friendly Multi-Touch technology built into the glass instead of beneath it. So less gets between you and your games, music, messages — whatever you love to see and do.
The iPod touch loop is a colourful way to keep your iPod touch at the ready.* That's perfect for when you want to shoot from a hard-to-reach camera angle (and don't want to risk it falling out of your hand). Flip iPod touch up to type a quick iMessage. Or just sport it when you're pocketless. The loop also keeps your iPod touch safe, so you don't have to worry about a slip, fumble, drop or overzealous robot dance.
The loop is easy to attach and detach.
Just push the button on the back, slide the loop over it, give the loop a little tug, and you're good to go. The design is so streamlined, you won't even notice the button until you need it.
Creating one-earbud-fits-all headphones is a challenge. That's because everyone's ears are different. So when Apple engineers were designing the EarPods, they didn't start with the speaker, they started with the ear. Unlike traditional circular earbuds, the design of the Apple EarPods is based on the geometry of the ear. Which makes them more comfortable for more people than any other earbud-style headphones.
But they're not just designed for the perfect fit. They're designed for the perfect sound too. You'll hear deeper, richer bass and better audio all around. And they're incredibly stable in your ear. Which means they stay in, even when you're out and about.Watch the EarPods video
Good design takes into account environmental impact. That's why nearly every Apple product is made from highly recyclable materials like aluminium, and why we refuse to use harmful toxins.
Every iPod touch is free of toxic materials like brominated flame retardants (BFRs) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). In fact, Apple has one of the strictest BFR-free and PVC-free standards in the industry. We even disassemble products and test all the components in our Cupertino lab to make sure our suppliers meet our environmental standards.
To learn more about Apple's dedication to reducing the environmental impact of our products and processes, visit the Apple and the Environment website.
