Effie GrayOpens Friday, April 3
Official Website | Rotten Tomatoes
In EFFIE GRAY, Emma Thompson peers boldly inside the forbidden realms of Victorian society through the true story of the marriage of Effie Gray and renowned art critic John Ruskin, courageously exposing a secret world of unrequited passion hidden behind the veil of an opulent public life. Set in an era when neither divorce, nor gay marriage were an option, EFFIE GRAY is the story of a beautiful young woman coming of age, and finding her own voice in a world where women were expected to be seen but not heard. Within the lush environs of a world brimming with art, painting and high society and feverishly bucolic scenes of the Scottish countryside, EFFIE GRAY explores the intricate relationship between sexual intolerance, repression and desire which continue to permeate society today. In this impeccably crafted period drama, Thompson delicately and incisively probes the marital politics of the Victorian Era, and beyond.
A Tale of Winter (1992)New HD RestorationOpens Friday, April 10
Legendary French director Eric Rohmer was unsurpassed at creating intelligent romantic comedies and intelligent female characters. A Tale of Winter, one of his most genial and audacious films, is a superb example of both facets. With Rohmer's characteristic delight in surprise and paradox, winter, not spring, is seen as the season of rebirth and renewal, and its tale begins on a sunny beach. A young couple, Félicie and Charles, meet while on holiday and fall deeply in love. In a fatal slip, she gives him the wrong address, and, as a result, he disappears from her life. The plot centers on Félicie's shifting allegiances to the three men in her life on a roundabout journey that finally brings her face to face with the most basic issues of destiny and faith.

UMKC School of Communication Studiesand Plug Projects presentsA SPELL TO WARDOFF THE DARKNESSFree ScreeningThursday, April 16 - 7:00pm
A SPELL TO WARD OFF THE DARKNESS follows an unnamed character through three seemingly disparate moments in his life. With little explanation, we join him in the midst of a 15-person collective on a small Estonian island; in isolation in the majestic wilderness of Northern Finland; and during a concert as the singer and guitarist of a black met al band in Norway. - Marked by loneliness, ecstatic beauty and an optimism of the darkest sort, A SPELL is a radical proposition for the existence of utopia in the present. - Starring musician Robert AA Lowe (best known for his intense live performances under the name LICHENS) in the lead role, A SPELL lies somewhere between fiction and non-fiction - it is at once a document of experience and an experience itself, an inquiry into transcendence that sees the cinema as a site for transformation. music.
Seymour: An IntroductionOpens Friday, April 17
Seymour Bernstein started playing the piano as a little boy, and by the time he turned 15 he was teaching it to others. He enjoyed a long and illustrious career as a performer before he gave it up to devote himself to helping others develop their own gifts. While Writer/Director Ethan Hawke's gentle, meditative study is a warm and lucid portrait of Bernstein and his exceptional life and work, it's also a love letter to the study of music itself, and a film about the patience, concentration, and devotion that are fundamental to the practice of art. SEYMOUR: AN INTRODUCTION is very well crafted, tightly edited and elegantly photographed. It allows us to spend time with a generous human being who has found balance and harmony through his love of music.
True StoryOpens Friday, April 17

Special Friends of the Tivoli ScreeningRussian ArkSaturday, April 25 - 1:00pm
Join the Tivoli's Jerry Harrington for this Spring's Friends of the Tivoli gathering. Russian filmmaker Alexander Sokurov broke boundaries in 2002 with his dreamlike vision of the Hermitage in St. Petersburg. RUSSIAN ARK is the first feature-length narrative film shot in a single take and is shot from the point-of-view of an unseen narrator, as he explores the museum and travels through Russian history. The audience sees through his eyes as he witnesses Peter the Great abusing one of his generals; Catherine the Great desperately searching for a bathroom; and, in the grand finale, the sumptuous Great Royal Ball of 1913. An fantastic and beautiful feat of filmmaking shot in one day, but t rehearsed for months to time their movements precisely with the flow of the camera. Don't miss seeing this on the big screen.
Clouds of Sils MariaOpens Friday, May 1
Maria Enders (Juliette Binoche) is an actress at the peak of her international career who is asked to perform in a revival of the play that made her famous twenty years earlier. Back then she played the role of Sigrid, an alluring young woman who disarms and eventually drives her boss Helena to suicide. Now she is being asked to step into the other role, that of the older Helena. She departs with her assistant (Kristen Stewart) to rehearse in Sils Maria, a remote region of the Alps. A young Hollywood starlet with a penchant for scandal (Chloë Grace Moretz) is to take on the role of Sigrid, and Maria finds herself on the other side of the mirror, face to face with an ambiguously charming woman who is, in essence, an unsettling reflection of herself.
The Salt of the EarthOpens Friday, May 1
2015 Best Documentary Oscar® Nominee. For the last 40 years, the photographer Sebastião Salgado has been travelling through the continents, in the footsteps of an ever-changing humanity. He has witnessed some of the major events of our recent history; international conflicts, starvation and exodus. He is now embarking on the discovery of pristine territories, of wild fauna and flora, and of grandiose landscapes as part of a huge photographic project, which is a tribute to the planet's beauty. Sebastiao Salgado's life and work are revealed to us by his son, Juliano, who went with him during his last travels, and by Wim Wenders, himself a photographer
Saint LaurentComing in June
Running counter to the current strain of wan, mechanical biopics, Bertrand Bonello's Saint Laurent toys deliriously with the genre's rules and limitations. Focusing on a dark, hedonistic, wildly creative decade (from 1967 to Õ77) in Yves Saint Laurent's life and career, Bonello considers the couturier (convincingly embodied by Gaspard Ulliel and later by Visconti stalwart Helmut Berger) as a myth, a brand, an avatar of his era. Bonello's star-studded supporting cast (including Louis Garrel, Léa Seydoux, Jérémie Renier, and Valeria Bruni Tedeschi) serves as first-rate human mise en scéne amid a kaleidoscopic torrent of lavish excess, retrospectively pieced together with a Proustian form of fast-and-loose association. As much as his subject and the gravitational pull he exerts in the hothouse environments of atelier and nightclub, Bonello is interestedÑas he was in House of Pleasures, his sumptuous portrait of a fin de siecle Parisian brothelÑin cinema's potential both to capture and to warp the passage of time and our perception of it.
National GalleryComing Soon
London's National Gallery, one of the world's foremost art institutions, is itself portrayed as a brilliant work of art in this, Frederick Wiseman's 39th documentary and counting. Wiseman listens raptly as a panoply of docents decode the great canvases of Da Vinci, Rembrandt, and Turner; he visits with the museum's restorers as they use magnifying glasses, tiny eye-droppers, scalpels, and Q-tips to repair an infinitesimal chip; he attends administrative meetings in which senior executives do (polite) battle with younger ones who want the museum to become less stodgy and more welcoming to a larger cross-section of the public. But most of all, we experience the joy of spending time with the aforementioned masters as well as Vermeer and Caravaggio, Titian and Velazquez, Pissarro and Rubens, and listen to the connoisseurs who discourse upon the aesthetic, historical, religious and psychological underpinnings of these masterpieces.

What are Allergies?
An allergy is an abnormal reaction of the body to substances from the outside environment. These substances can be taken into the body through different methods: through the skin (insect bites, carpet, animal contact, etc.), by the mouth (food, beverages, or medications), or through the nose and lungs (pollens, house dust, animal dander). These substances trigger an allergic reaction and are referred to as allergens.
What are some common symptoms?
Allergies can contribute to asthma, rhinitis, eczema, hay fever and urticaria (hives). Symptoms include runny nose, or eyes, wheezing, nasal and/or chest congestion, sinus headaches, frequent colds, cough, itching, frequent ear infections, sneezing, sore throat, burning and itchy eyes. Asthma is a complex disease of the airways and allergic reaction is a major contributing factor.

Cool a little, then ladle into a jelly bag over a large jug or bowl and hang overnight to drip.
Next day, tip away the apples and measure the remaining juice.

An engine or motor is a machine designed to convert energy into useful mechanical motion. Heat engines, including internal combustion engines and external combustion engines (such as steam engines) burn a fuel to create heat which is then used to create motion. Electric motors convert electrical energy into mechanical motion, pneumatic motors use compressed air and others, such as clockwork motors in wind-up toys use elastic energy. In biological systems, molecular motors like myosins in muscles use chemical energy to create motion.

In cooperation with 15 major anime production companies and manga publishers, the Japanese government will next month start a huge extermination operation against 580 foreign sites which have illegally uploaded anime and manga contents on the web without the copyright holders' permission, NHK reported on July 28. While the government has started supporting the genre as one of their important cultural exports, there appears to be no end of illegal uploading of anime and manga via pirate sites, mainly operated by Chinese. The Cultural Affairs Agency estimates the loss caused by the Chinese pirate sites last year was amounted to at least 560 billion yen (about US$ 5.5 billion).
On August 1, the government will start simultaneously sending requests to delete illegal anime and manga contents to the operators of the 580 foreign pirate sites which they have found. In addition, the operation will launch a new site to guide the fans to a legitimate site offering some 250 titles including
the latest ones at a cost of several hundred yen.
How do you guys and gals feel about this operation and its actions towards piracy? Do you believe it benefit the industry or not?
MAG Project shared this vid to thank everyone.
Thank you.

Despite his menacing stare and his even angrier-looking fists, there may be no nicer man in the Washington Capitals locker room than John Erskine. That's why this is hard to write.
The 33-year-old Erskine, who was given a two-year $3.9 million extension from George McPhee last February, may be in the throes of his worst season ever as a pro.
The veteran defenseman — who is supposed to be a leader out on the ice — is an anchor on the Caps. His 47.2% puck possession is 3.6% worse than the team does without him. The only defensemen on the team with a lower possession scores are rookie Connor Carrick and the recently released Alexander Urbom. Erskine ranks 173rd out of the 230 defensemen with at least 25 games played when measured by corsi percentage.
Then there's the goals. While Erskine is on the ice at even strength, 62% of the goals scored on the ice belong to the opponent. Big John also has a penalty differential of minus-9 (he's taken nine more penalties than he's drawn).
Then there's the eye test, my personal favorite, which Erskine fails regularly.

Ain't No Other Man but Matthew
by Anna Hoffman
posted Mar 3 2014 11:51AM
When I think about my childhood, the first thing that comes in my mind is music, then television. The artists I listened to, the shows I watched, movies I adored. A lot hasn't changed. The battle between Britney, Christina, Jessica, and yes, Mandy Moore was ongoing until Mandy stopped recording, Jessica married Nick Lachey, and Britney married Kevin Federline. Which one is not like the other? Christina Maria Aguilera. I put her above the others due to her versatility. From 'Genie in a Bottle' to 'Dirrty' to 'Ain't No Other Man' to 'Not Myself Tonight' and so on, Christina demonstrated she is capable of anything in the pop music industry.
Her "genie" days go back to when Christina was 18 years old and by 2000, she won Best New Artist at the Grammy's. When she turned 21 and released
, she not only made a statement she wasn't a teenager anymore but jam packed an album of empowering singles. There was 'Beautiful,' 'Can't Hold Us Down' ft. Lil' Kim, and 'Fighter' that exhibited her seriousness to succeed as pop star unlike any of her generation. Though Sarah Michelle Gellar did a poor parody of the pop star on an episode of Saturday Night Live regarding her controversial 'Dirrty' music video, Christina Aguilera replied at the time that she could have done a better job making fun of herself.
I'll skip ahead to 2006 when
Back to Basics
was literally, back to basics. From fluff songs like "Ain't No Other Man' to heart wrenching songs such as 'Hurt,' definitely paid tribute to her 6-octave range of vocalic. She was awarded the Best Pop Vocal Performance for 'Ain't No Other Man' at the Grammy's in 2007. The album had its own persona of 1920's-1950's style of music, dating back to a more classic era. Christina also changed her look from a hoop nose ring and black streaks to red lipstick and a 40s hairdo as a blonde bombshell. At 25 years old and recently married to Jordan Bratman, Christina composed an album of her desires and fears of entering the family world.
After having her son Max, Christina took a short break after
Keeps Gettin' Better: A Decade of Hits
in 2008 until
released in 2010. I remember when she recently gave birth in 2008 and performed at the MTV Video Music Awards and they honored her for the Generation Award. People were commenting on the spandex black jumpsuit she had worn that "made her look fat." I was shocked reading this for the first time thinking the scrutiny Britney Spears and Jessica Simpson consistently faced on this topic. But, Christina was always petite as can be. When
hit theaters in 2010, her figure was said to be "back to the way it was." The first film at age 29, starring alongside the pop sensation, Cher, Christina had already done it all.
In 2011, she signed on as one of the judges for the singing competition TV show,
The Voice,
along with Maroon 5's Adam Levine and Cee-Lo Green. Since this past Valentine's Day, she's engaged to Matthew Rutler, and maintains a civil relationship with her ex-husband. Ten days later, she finds out she is pregnant! With a wedding and a baby on the way, I hope this doesn't put a halt to her music career. I want something more after A Great Big World's 'Say Something.'

What do you think was the reason that Brittney lost her foothold in the Mt. Rushmore of female pop singers? Was it because of her crazy spell or her producers and music being of lesser quality? Lady Gaga obviously overshadowed Brit and Christi but Christi held her own well. I think Christi grew into her pop genre with her age and maturity by marketing herself well. Anna, Thoughts?

Water Tower Campus Construction Update
Construction moves ahead for the new Michael R. Quinlan School of Business and Newcastle, Limited's 35-story residential tower.
The final phase of demolition continues for the school of business. At 14-16 E. Pearson, hand demolition moves forward in cooperation with the immediate neighbors. Structural demolition will happen in a few weeks and will be completed with great care due to the building's proximity to the University's adjacent neighbors. The busts that adorn the façades of 14-16 E. Pearson will also be removed by hand in a process called a "facadectomy." Foundation analysis and underground review are in progress.
The Newcastle building has experienced some mechanical problems with the with the drilling rig and it is not currently operating. Once it is repaired, drilling will resume. Due to the unforeseen mechanical failure, however, the construction team will need to work Saturdays for the month of October to remain on schedule.
After Nov. 1, the parking lane on the south side of Chestnut Street will be restricted for construction site work. Pedestrian foot-traffic will be diverted to the north side of Chestnut Street.
Structural work is scheduled to begin in November, 2013. Sheet piling will begin at the Chestnut (north) end of the work site and move south. The crew will push the sheets into the ground in an effort to minimize vibration.
Additionally, several measures have been taken to make the entire area safer during construction. The light behind 14-16 E. Pearson will be replaced with a brighter light in the next couple of days. The Chicago Police Foot Patrol has been ticketing trucks double parked along Chestnut Street.
Stay tuned to Loyola Neighborhood News to remain updated on the projects as they move forward.

To the editor:
I just want to thank R. Joe Sullivan so very much for the column he wrote about our mother, Gladys Leach. You have no idea how proud she would have been. And knowing that you read her East Carter County news every week -- that was one of her biggest enjoyments, getting mail or phone calls from all around telling her how much they enjoyed the news from home.
We are trying to take one day at a time, but it sure is hard. But I know if we are half as strong as my mother was, we will all make it. Thank you so very much. May God bless you for making our day a little brighter.
Kennett, Mo.
Editor's note: Gladys Leach of Ellsinore, Mo., wrote the East Carter County news for two weekly newspapers for over 40 years. She died recently, leaving a large loss for her farflung loyal readers who subscribed to the weekly newspapers to keep up with the news from home.

Love to read, and Audible has made the two-hour daily commute enjoyable!
Phenomenal depiction of the horror and monotony of war.
Paul Bäumer at 18 is convinced along with his classmates to join the WWI war effort. They meet an older soldier, Stanislaus Katczinsky or Kat, who becomes a mentor and helps them survive initially.
Overall the grisly descriptions and absolute hopelessness is relentless. It's easy to see why the Nazis banned and burned this book.
Frank Muller is one of my favorite narrators, and his work on this book made it even more incredible.
I've decided for awhile that I wanted to read "Ulysses" - which really seems like a marathon for readers. I tried reading it once, and couldn't get the rhythm of the language. Jim Norton and Marcella Riordan's reading helped me over that hurdle. I also had the book in front of me, and I used "Ulysses Annotated" by Don Gifford to help me with all the glorious historical, literature, musical, biblical references, along with the 1904 Dublin slang.
I would recommend this recording to anybody interested in experiencing the novel that changed literature.
The book is very complicated - about 1/4 of the book are "digressions" where Hugo discusses topics as diverse as Waterloo, the Paris sewer system, slang, the penal system, politics, cloisters, Paris rich, Paris poor and more. While these passages are hard to wade through - they prepare the reader for later passages, and add a little suspense as we want to get back to the story of Jean Valjean and others.
Nothing is absolute with Hugo, he examines both sides of issues - he may rail on Catholic cloisters, but Valjean's road to salvation starts with an act of kindness by a priest, and later he and Cosette are living in a convent.
Overall, the book is about what is good/evil and the possibility of redemption but how society's conventions may get in the way. While reading the book, I was struck to the similarity in construction to "War and Peace" (a fabulous story with many digressions). This makes sense since Tolstoy and Hugo were contemporaries and "Les Misérables" was published 7 years before Tolstoy's masterpiece.

With my Demon Hunter, found Inna's Reach. Then an Immortal King's belt. I decided to roll other characters soon after.

Technically, the first set item I saw DROP in a game was an Immortal King gloves...however, I was using a CM Wizard that, admittedly, was getting carried through uber runs. So I really don't count that one...
First one I had drop solo was actually in a pair. I was using my Monk farming Act 4 (yes, it can be done), I believe it was one of the two Silver Spire floors...and I got accosted by two or three elite packs that descended on me...and a Chantodo's Force and I think either a Tal Rasha amulet or belt dropped. One hell of a fight, pretty sure I died at least twice...
But man, that was some well-deserved loot right there. My Wizard is still carrying them now.
Those are definitely set pieces I earned, and even if I get all of those sets, and it doesn't send my DPS into the 100k's, I'll still be really happy with having found those, because I EARNED them. I didn't stack my nickels and dimes, and didn't farm infinitely for just GOLD so I could BUY them.
I fought and bled for them, and if nothing else, they're trophies, :-)

First month of release, act 1 inferno on my monk, exploring/hunting, and found the Natalyas mark ring in the fields of misery, I had to lay down for 15 minutes I felt so elated- I sold the ring in the ah for 30 mill, got enough gear to make it to Diablo not too long after that.

Back in the day, Act III was the real gear check. If you couldn't cut in in Act III, then you farmed Act I endlessly for upgrades and gold. Act II was pretty worthless. (VotA hadn't come to light I don't think.)
That's probably why most folks mention Act I....because that's where they were farming at the time....I know I was!

That's some good insight. I played from launch, but not much and I spread it out among three characters. Then I took all of September and October off (got married, passed the FE exam), and by November Inferno Act 2 and 3 was not so bad.

Good thread! I have yet to see a set drop and needed to see it was possible.
Posts: 1,078View profile
First set item I saw drop was in Act I while on the way to killing the wretched mother queen or whatever she is. Dropped off some zombie trash. It was a ring..screaming chain I believe it was called. I kept it for sentimental reasons and let one of my followers use it.
It was before MP, and I had no magic find.

IK belt. Took around 600 hours for them drop.
I've put around 1500 hours into the game and only really started to see heavy set items drop after around 1000 hours (or the patch buff to legendary drop rates).
Since then I've probably found around 25-30 set items, 11 of which have been IK belt.
They are the Ivory Towers of greens.

My first set piece was a Tal's helm before the Leg/Set patch. It rolled +radius for the random mod. I still have it along with my first Leg, the 2nd day after launch, which was a Monster Hunter sword.
I still have my first legendary, a 300th spear that dropped from the Dead Adventurer in the corner of Leoric's Manor Courtyard.

For me, it was the mojo from the Zunimassa set. Unfortunately, it seemed to be the start of some sort of obnoxious trend cuz from that point on, I would go on to find around 15 of them. Most recent one was yesterday. Managed to earn the Set Appeal Achievement with the Zuni set. I haven't really started any WD chars.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
A familiar tragedy
For Tina Fontaine's family, the story of loss and grieving has repeated itself too often
SAGKEENG FIRST NATION -- The drive from the edge of Winnipeg to Sagkeeng First Nation is only an hour-and-a-half, but the road stretches lifetimes for Tina Fontaine's family.
For them, it has become their own highway of tears.
Tina Fontaine isn't the first of her family to be found dumped and dead. But last Saturday, it was the funeral for the 15-year-old who has become the face of a call for a national inquiry into why so many aboriginal girls and women end up murdered or missing that sent a group of local and national reporters down the road to the community of 3,300.
"There's the family," a woman seated outside the church tells a group of journalists.
Tina's aunt, Elaine Turtle, is walking through the parking lot to St. Alexander Roman Catholic Parish Church, wearing a black T-shirt that features her niece's smiling face.
Nearly three decades ago, when she was Elaine Duck, she made the same walk for her sister.
In December 1987, the body of Cheryl Duck was discovered in a barren field near the northern outskirts of Winnipeg -- face down, front teeth broken, frozen to death.
Cheryl was also 15.
And like Tina, whose body was wrapped in plastic and dumped in the Red River, Cheryl was last seen alive in a part of the city that's dangerous for vulnerable aboriginal teenage girls.
"It's very sad for us," Elaine says. "We never knew it would happen to us like this again."
But, of course, it does happen again and again and...
-- -- --
The funeral, and the feast that followed are over, Tina's casket has been carried out to a waiting hearse, and inside the church a pretty local girl, in blue jeans, a white hoodie and a faux leopard top is standing expressionless in a doorway that leads outside.
A reporter asks what her name is.
"Destiny," she responds.
Destiny is Tina Fontaine's cousin.
She's also 15.
"Are you ever scared to go to Winnipeg?" the reporter asks.
"Sometimes," she says.
Her look, and her tone, seem devoid of emotion, even as she explains what, or more accurately, who scares her.
"Some guy, like in a blue truck, he's always following me around Sargent (Avenue) and Portage Place and stuff like that."
The girl goes on to describe the man in the truck: middle-aged, close-cropped white beard.
"He just parks somewhere and watches you."
And sometimes, she says, he rolls down the window and tries to lure her and her friends into the vehicle.
Did she tell the police?
Why not?
"Because I was a runaway at the time."
The girl's mother and grandmother are waiting outside in the church parking lot. Destiny hasn't told them the story about the man in the blue truck. Not that they would be surprised. Both her 34-year-old mother, Astra Thomas, and 66-year-old grandmother, May Thomas, have shared stories with Destiny about being attacked or abducted as younger women living in Winnipeg.
Astra and her six children lived in Winnipeg's West End until just over a year ago. But she felt Destiny wasn't safe there, so Astra decided to move them all back to the reserve. Destiny, her oldest, simply ran back to her old neighbourhood.
The last time was earlier this summer, and Astra only got her back by finding out from friends where her daughter was staying and calling police to pick her up.
Yet now, less than an hour after the funeral, as her mother and grandmother lecture Destiny about the danger of running away to Winnipeg, it's obvious Astra doesn't believe her daughter is getting the message Tina's murder so tragically retells for the family.
"She's the same age as you," Astra says. "Same family, hanging around in the same area that you've been hanging around, doing the same kind of things you were doing, and yet you still don't think it can happen to you?"
-- -- --
No prominent political figures -- certainly none who are calling for a national inquiry -- made the drive from Winnipeg to Sagkeeng for Tina Fontaine's funeral. But a pair of female Winnipeg Police Service officers, Shaunna Neufeld of the missing persons unit, and aboriginal liaison officer Edith Turner did; out of respect and out of uniform, on their own time.
If a national inquiry were called, they might have something to offer from their experience. But that's not who the reporter turned to for an answer.
He turned to the woman in the black Tina Fontaine T-shirt as she was entering the church. "Why do you think this is happening?" the reporter asked Elaine Turtle. "Why is it happening to your family?"
"It's probably just a matter of the Devil is working hard," she said, "The Devil is really working hard."
Maybe, the reporter thought to himself. But one thing is certain.
The rest of us aren't working hard enough to prevent it.

Conforming to the circular form factor of everyday watches makes the Watch R look less like a smartwatch and more like a classical timepiece. The smartwatch has a 1.3in, 320x320 resolution display housed in a stainless steel frame. It is complemented by a 22mm calf skin leather strap that can be interchanged.
Inside is a 1.2GHz Snapdragon CPU, 512MB of RAM, 4GB of internal storage and a 410 milliamp-hour battery. It will run Google's Android Wear platform and come preloaded with tailored LG health and fitness applications.
Additional features include a heart monitor and a tolerance of freshwater one metre deep for thirty minutes.
The LG G Watch R will be released "in key markets early in the fourth quarter of 2014", the company said in its press release. Local representatives could not confirm if the smartwatch will be launched in Australia before Christmas, in which case it will rival Motorola's Moto 360.
LG will be officially unveil the G Watch R at next week's IFA trade show in Berlin.
