More than 5,000 Smart Cities Stakeholders Work to Make EU Cities Smarter
December is often the month to evaluate achievements for the year, and this was also the case for the European Innovation Partnership on Smart Cities and Communities, which already boasts more than 5,000 members. 2016 has been a year full of activities within the smart cities community and this has positively contributed to making European cities smarter. If you want to know more about the evolution of the EIP-SCC Market Place, keep reading… You will find an overview of the last three years.
- Evolution
The Market Place has undergone many changes since its creation. Three years ago it was in fact called the Smart Cities Stakeholder Platform. It had been initiated by the European Commission with the dual aim of identifying and spreading relevant information on technology solutions and needs required by practitioners and providing information for policy support to the European Commission. It was created both as a web-based and physical Platform open to anyone who registered on it. The backbone was the contributions by stakeholders in a bottom-up manner and the ownership was by the stakeholders.
With the objective of taking a step forward towards the implementation of the smart cities solutions previously shared within the Platform, the European Commission opened an invitation for commitments. 370 ambitious commitments gathering about 3,000 partners were selected. These were structured into different Action Clusters according to their focus areas.
Many achievements have been reached since the European Innovation Partnership on Smart Cities and Communities kicked-off its Action Clusters. The kick-off event, held on 9th October 2104 in Brussels (Belgium), gathered more than 300 people representing quadruple helix stakeholders and was supported by three Vice-Presidents of the European Commission: Günther Oettinger (responsible for Energy at that moment), Neelie Kroes (Digital Agenda) and Siim Kallas (Transport).
Given the bottom-up approach of the Market Place, it was hard at the beginning to align everyone's interests and agree on specific roadmaps for each Action Cluster. From this work, specific Initiatives were born. A deep analysis was undertaken in order to identify synergies among the different roadmaps of the initiatives thus avoiding overlaps and silos. Based on the individual roadmaps and the interlinks analysis, the EIP's overall Roadmap 2016 was designed, including as its main target the engagement of 100 cities and 100 industries in the Action Clusters collaborating to overcoming market fragmentation and achieving scale in building a market for smart city innovations.
The Roadmap detailed the roll-out actions to be undertaken to achieve its goals. The focus is on the deployment of technology and service innovation at scale in the fields of interoperable urban platforms, intelligent lampposts, positive energy blocks, smart electro-mobility solutions and smart mobility services. It also took into account the enabling roles of collaborative actions such as new business models and financing arrangements, new strategies and tools to increase citizen focus and engagement as well as new strategies and tools for integrated planning and decision-making.
- Achievements
The main achievements for the time being have been the involvement of a significant critical mass of relevant stakeholders and being able to define a clear strategy to foster the deployment of smart cities technologies and service innovation.
Many conferences, expert workshops and webinars have been held over the three years contributing, on the one hand, to raising awareness about specific roadblocks and opportunities related to the deployment of smart cities and, on the other hand, the development of a shared vision concerning the needs of citizens and cities and how to satisfy them with innovation.
In line with this, the impressive impact of our communication activities in the smart cities arena is also remarkable. The relevance of the figures increases when comparing them to the achievements of other key initiatives in this field:
- The Market Place has already over 5,050 members.
- The website is very high in the worldwide ranking of visits (Ranking Alexa) with more than 17,000 visits per month.
- With 11.200 followers on Twitter, and 1.500 on LinkedIn, the EIP-SCC is far more visible than any other EIP.
- The Market Place has international outreach, having many visitors from India and USA.
- The attendance rate in the EIP-SCC events is increasing; the latest General Assembly (Eindhoven, 24th May 2016) gathered 450 people. In addition, there is an ongoing series of webinars contributing to spreading the news on diverse activities.
Furthermore, the engagement of the audience is growing significantly as reflected by the growing number of people participating in events, the increase of the Twitter followers and the rising number of visitors the website receives.
Even if the EIP-SCC is one of the youngest initiatives amongst those the European Commission is supporting, it is at the top in terms of stakeholder interaction. The EIP-SCC Market Place is indeed becoming the central hub for knowledge sharing and collaboration among stakeholders and it will play a crucial role in smartening the cities of the future and overcoming market fragmentation.
- Roadmap 2016
Comparing the key collaboration targets set in the Roadmap 2016 with the actual achievements of the Market Place, we can confirm that it has been a successful year.
As shown in the overall "State of Play" summary, the initiatives have not only succeeded in engaging a significant mass of stakeholders but have also delivered interesting and tangible results. Among them, there are wide networks growing day by day, such as EV4SCC, Manifestos gathering the support of key actors (such the ones on Urban Platforms, Citizen Engagement, New Mobility Services and electro-mobility...), projects being designed (e.g. EIB investment proposal on car sharing) and supporting documents and tools.
As regards the latter, it is important to highlight the new Online Funding Tool developed by the Business Models Action Cluster, which aims to provide clear and practical information about the opportunities that European Funding Programmes can offer to enhance the development of smart sustainable solutions in both cities and regions.
- Next steps
The Roadmap 2017 is being co-created now and will be published soon. All stakeholders have participated in the discussions on what the Market Place should achieve by the end of next year. Again, the Market Place will allow the tackling of the common challenges of European cities through collaborative action.

A Dallas County jury is deliberating the fate of former Dallas Cowboy Josh Brent, who is accused of driving drunk and causing a crash that killed his best friend and teammate Jerry Brown Jr.
They will be sequestered tonight after not reaching a verdict today. They deliberated for about three and a half hours. Deliberations resume Wednesday morning.
They will be sequestered tonight after not reaching a verdict today. They deliberated for about three and a half hours. Deliberations resume Wednesday morning.
Jurors began deliberating around 11:30 a.m. after hearing closing arguments from Dallas County prosecutors and Brent's attorneys.
After closing arguments, Brent hugged his mother and Brown's mother. Some Dallas Cowboys, including Sean Lee, also watched closing arguments.
Tests show Brent, 25, had a blood alcohol level of 0.18 after the December 2012 crash. That's more than two times the legal limit of 0.08. Testimony showed that Brent, who weighs 320, would have to drink 17 standard size drinks to reach that blood alcohol content.
He was going at least 110 mph in a 45 mph zone at the time of the crash, and defense attorneys blamed the wreck on speed and not alcohol, as Brent did at the scene of the wreck, on a State Highway 114 service road in Irving.
During closing arguments this morning, defense attorneys George Milner III, Kevin Brooks and Deandra Grant attacked the blood tests. They cited faulty procedures and questioned the standards used by Dallas County's crime lab. They gave jurors reason after reason to cast doubt on the the prosecution's case.
"You make your decision in this case on what is known, proven, documented, not speculation," Brooks said in closing arguments.
Milner reminded jurors that they had taken an oath to follow the law and the evidence.
"And Josh and I believed you," he said.
First Assistant District Attorney Heath Harris told jurors that the evidence shows Brent was drunk and said the defense was pushing them to chase "rabbit holes." He reminded jurors that Brent was drinking "Dallas Cowboy doubles" of cognac and champagne and was seen "chugging" from a bottle.
"Their whole defense is deception," Harris said to jurors.
Prosecutors also reminded jurors about the horrors Brown must have felt in his final moments. Prosecutor Jason Hermus stood before the jury box holding a photo of Brown.
"This is Jerry Brown. He was 25 years old," Hermus said. "In the seconds before he died, can you imagine what he must have experienced?"

Barclays' identity crisis By: Peter Lee Published on: June 2015 One year on from its big restructuring announcement, Barclays is still struggling to convince that it has found the right model. Investment banking remains the sticking point. Senior executives in the division say they've pulled off a £100 billion restructuring and improved the client franchise. They want to invest for growth. But sceptics say that bull market conditions and accounting sleight of hand have flattered results and the investment bank needs to become even smaller and more focused. The instinct of chief executive Antony Jenkins may be to give the investment bank more time. Shareholders and the new chairman may not be so patient. Print Order Share Share on facebook Share on twitter Share on linkedin Share on googleplus What better way for a bank chief executive to see the markets celebrate the first anniversary of his signature restructuring announcement than with a one day rise of close to 4% in the share price? When Barclays shares shot up on May 20 this year, from £2.60 to £2.71, the discount to book value narrowed to 0.93 from 0.90, inching chief executive Antony Jenkins closer to erasing a glaring and embarrassing signal of investor distrust over the bank and one that he had set out to tackle on May 8, 2014. Many of the European banks that traded at far below book value in the worst days of the eurozone crisis have long since recovered to trade at, or above, book. Barclays has been a laggard, largely because of fears of large litigation costs and weak earnings at its investment banking division. It's worth remembering that when Jenkins became chief executive of Barclays three years ago, following the ouster of Bob Diamond over the Libor scandal in summer 2012, many analysts and investors had feared that this retail banker would dismantle the UK's only competitor as a global investment bank and, cowed by the political furore over Libor, destroy or divest its biggest earner. Jenkins is the classic battlefield promotion. As the top echelons of Barclays' senior management gathered in Canary Wharf on that fateful day in 2012, struggling to come to terms with the departure of their leader Bob Diamond – which had become inevitable following the intervention of then Bank of England governor Mervyn King – there was an almost comic moment. "Has anyone told Antony?" asked one voice. "Somebody should call him and let him know." One of the corporate staff had to track down Jenkins, head of Barclaycard and of retail and business banking at the 325-year old British bank, the only remaining member of Barclays' senior management not a fully paid-up member of Diamond's cabal since they had seen off Frits Seegers as head of retail banking in 2009, and tell him that he was now the last man standing. When I look at the investment bank's place in the Barclays group as a whole, I feel positive that we have scale, capability and competitive advantage in investment banking and that important clients need those services Antony Jenkins In the months that followed, now chief executive of the whole bank, Jenkins refused to take revenge on the survivors of a club that had excluded him. Those who work with him variously describe Jenkins as intelligent, considered, private, cold, decent, honourable. What has he learned about investment banking since becoming chief executive of Barclays? "One point that has been consistently reinforced is that while a few parts of investment banking activity can sometimes be derided as being of limited benefit to society, that is certainly not what I believe and it's not the case across the business lines I witness when I visit clients: insurance companies that need to invest and earn returns; corporations that need to raise capital, hedge their risks, transact in foreign exchange markets to conduct international trade. What we have sought to do with the investment bank is remove those parts that don't benefit society – so the tax structuring business, prop trading, structured derivatives – and concentrate only on those that benefit clients. "And when I look at the investment bank's place in the Barclays group as a whole, I feel positive that we have scale, capability and competitive advantage in investment banking and that important clients need those services." But by 2014, certain realities were becoming clear. New capital rules had destroyed the profitability of large parts of Barclays' signature FICC businesses – structured and long-dated rates and credit derivatives, in particular – that had become heavy consumers of capital against risk weighted assets. Pressured over the leverage ratio, Jenkins had had to undertake a £5.8 billion rights issue in 2013, equivalent to 15% of Barclays' market value, and one that 5% of shareholders decided not to support. Jenkins saw that, as a group, Barclays was too exposed to the vagaries of an investment bank which was itself in turn too exposed to the volatility of FICC. He now had decisively to shrink an investment bank that was delivering weak returns – a 5.8% return on equity in 2013 – and overshadowed the whole group, distracting attention from the better-performing retail banking and Barclaycard units, while accounting for more than half of the groups risk-weighted assets. When he announced a new strategy on May 8, 2014, Jenkins didn't mince his words. "The broad issues around the investment bank in the current environment are clear: it consumes too much capital; it does not generate sufficient returns for shareholders; and it is too large as a proportion of the group. As currently constituted, it is an unacceptable drag on group returns."

Excellent 4.4 /5 from 21 reviews
Lovely, impeccably kept hotel. Great food, fantastic service.
Awesome place to stay. Welcoming staff and very helpful. I was travelling with friends from abroad and the staff made them feel st home. They gave a tour of kitchen as well. Buffet is good and they can make something that you want besides buffet.
The Courtyard Hinjewadi was the perfect hotel experience with respect to the hotel itself. You couldn't ask more of the staff or the facilities. The surrounding neighborhood was 3rd world - dirty and depressing.
It was okay. The restaurant was a bit pricey for the location, especially items from the bar.
Over all nice hotel. Good rooms and good food. Convenient location for connecting Mumbai. Only find it outside the main city.

Canon, the world's leader in digital imaging, is the first company in 25 years to meet the standard of excellence required to receive the Camera Group's prestigious Chairman's Award for Industry Excellence and Awareness.
The accolade was presented to Canon in recognition of the role it plays in actively inspiring photographers, and industry alike, to become more passionate about photography.
More than 250 camera suppliers and retailers from across Australia gathered at the exclusive Opera Marquee at the Sydney Opera House, for the Camera House Gala Dinner award ceremony last Saturday, 30 November, 2010.
Receiving the award, Director Canon Consumer Imaging, Jason McLean, said they were honoured to be acknowledged by the industry.
"We are extremely thrilled to receive this award. The fact that we have been recognised by the industry for connecting with, and inspiring Australian photographers is extremely rewarding. The ethos of inspiration and innovation sits at the heart of everything we do as a brand," he said.
"We have worked hard to strengthen our relationships with our partners over the last 18 months and have seen significant shift in the way that we work collaboratively with them. Their success is linked so closely to our success," said Jason.
Commenting on the significance of Canon's award win, Chairman for the Camera Group Mark Alderson said, "This is the first time the whole board has unanimously agreed on a worthy recipient of this category," he said
"Canon contribution to the photography industry as a whole goes above and beyond shifting boxes from shelves," he said.

There were plenty of things Tony Abbott would've done to get into power, except he can't negotiate, apart from offering his ar$e!!!
He probably only condemned it because it is in the limelight, a bit like Alan Jones and the "died of shame" debacle!

I think it speaks volumes for the general climate within the party for someone, anyone to think that this would be acceptable & or appreciated. I don't think that incidents like this happen in a vacuum, you always pick your audience when you pull a stunt like that.

I don't think that it says anything about the party itself, but I do think it was a vile joke and an unacceptable one.
I'd be interested to find out where this has come from now (if it was allegedly from a dinner at Easter time), and who released it.
Mal Brough claims not to have known about it, nor condones it.
I find it seriously disturbing that they find it ok to attack Julia in gender based ways. It doesn't happen to men. How are women still having to fight for equality? Its just wrong.
I do think it says something about the party, personally. It's just another sexist incident to add to the list, I guess. I don't believe for a minute that Mal Brough hosted a dinner with Joe Hockey as guest of honour, and neither of them saw the menu or "can recall" seeing it.

In my previous blog post I showed how I used several Wemos D1 mini to make a network of wireless temperature sensors around RasPiTV HQ. These litle boards are based on the ESP8266 microcontroller with built-in WiFi. There is a Pro version available too. One of its main benefits is that you can attach an external WiFi antenna for greater range. This is an optional feature, and it does require some delicate surgery to reroute the antenna signal from the built-in ceramic antenna, to the external socket. It's not especially difficult once you know what […more…]
Wireless Remote Sensing with Wemos D1 mini, Arduino IDE, Raspberry Pi and lighttpd web server
For a long time now I've wanted wireless temperature sensors scattered around the house and garden reporting their temperatures regularly to a central server. It's not something I really need, but something nice to have. I'd originally planned to do it with a RasPiO Duino or Arduino nano and inexpensive NRF24L01 radio boards. Albert @winkleink Hickey, a friend of mine, who also runs the Egham Jam put me onto these when he did his buttonflash game. Albert has a useful hobby of trawling ebay for bargain-basement electronics. A few weeks ago he showed me the […more…]
I have received a fairly enormous selection of Raspberry Pi audio cards from four suppliers (Pimoroni, IQaudIO, HiFiBerry and JustBoom). It's a bewildering array of DACs and AMPs, which allow you to turn your Pi into a HiFi system capable of playing sound files up to 32-bit 384 kHz, in theory. In reality 24-bit audio is about the highest quality you can buy and it's questionable whether human ears can resolve any higher anyway. Anyway – I'm not planning to turn into a raving audiophile (anyone seen my gold speaker leads?) so here's the stuff […more…]
RasPiO Portsplus Picademy – NEW product.
If you've been hanging around the RasPi.TV blog for a while you'll have heard of the RasPiO Portsplus board. It's a little PCB with the Pi's GPIO port numbers on that you can use to avoid counting pins when wiring up your GPIO projects. A few months ago I was visiting Pi Towers. Ben Nuttall mentioned that they use the Portsplus at Picademy, but sometimes people put them on the wrong way up and it causes confusion. The original Portsplus has GPIO port numbers one one side and pin numbers on the other side. It […more…]
Since the February 2016 launch of the Raspberry Pi 3B there have been three new Pi released. They're not major revisions, but they are different. Around May the A+ got a 512 MB memory upgrade. I pre-ordered one immediately and it materialised at the end of August. But that alone didn't warrant a new family photo. Also in May the new Pi Zero 1.3 with camera port was released. But it was last week's arrival of the new Pi2B 1.2 with BCM2837 processor that made me decide it was time to get the camera out. […more…]
New Raspberry Pi 2B 1.2 with Pi3 BCM2837 Processor
Back in September a new version of the Pi2 quietly appeared on Farnell's website without a fanfare. It's exactly the same as the original Pi2 except the processor is BCM2837 running at 900 MHz instead of the BCM2836. Why the New Revision? By changing processors to the Pi3's BCM2837, the older BCM2836 can cease production and the Pi2 gets an upgrade to the newer, faster A53 CPU. To keep the BCM2836 in production in small quantities no longer made economic sense. I pre-ordered one immediately. It arrived yesterday and I tweeted some quick photos straight […more…]
I've posted several times in the past about get_iplayer – a very useful set of scripts that allow you to download BBC iPlayer content for offline viewing.

How to Estimate Your Vocabulary Using a Python Script and the Scrabble Word List
The other day I read an article on the BBC website which suggested a method to estimate your vocabulary. Essentially, you sample 20 pages of your dictionary and note down how many words you know on each page. Then you add up the total, divide by 20, then multiply this by the number of pages in your dictionary. This gives you an estimate of your vocabulary. (Results will depend on the number of words in the dictionary, so use the largest you have.) This seemed like a good idea, so I tried it. I used […more…]

Soul of Screenwriting by Keith Cunningham
Book DescriptionUniquely inspired by the work of mythologist Joseph Campbell and psychologist Jean Houston, "The Soul of Screenwriting" demonstrates how the "screenwriting by numbers" approach that offers templates into which the writer may mechanically drop his or her story idea is fundamentally incomplete. Keith Cunningham maintains that in doing so, one ignores the process of writing. Screenwriting is a long journey and even the most gifted screenwriters get lost along the way. Getting lost, too, is part of the process.What the writer experiences in the act of writing has never been taken into account, yet this is where the screenplay comes from: the writer's here-and-now experience while working on the story. Information - left-brain concepts and techniques about plot structure, character development and orchestration, the dynamics of scenes and sequences - is all necessary. But it is what one does with the information that makes a truly great screenplay. In this book Cunningham demonstrates that good screenwriting is more than hitting the big plot points with exciting action. Good screenwriting also has integrity and authenticity. It has a voice, and because of this it speaks to the audience.To gain a voice, the writer needs the heat of creative imagination: passion, commitment, enthusiasm, a drive to know the truth of the characters and an urge to get to the core of the dramatic conflict without resorting to escapism. These are qualities of the heart, and as Cunningham argues, screenwriting can indeed be a path with heart.

MLB Regular Season
Matchup: Chicago White Sox at Cleveland Indians
Date/Time: July 23, 7:10 p.m. ET
Pitching Matchup: Jeff Samardzija (6-5, 4.08) vs. Trevor Bauer (8-6, 4.03)
MLB Betting Odds From BetDSI Sportsbook
Moneyline: Cleveland -135
Total: 7.5
Every game is big for the underachieving Cleveland Indians as they look to get back into the American League playoff hunt. That's especially true of Thursday night's game as they open up a seven-game homestand with a matchup against the Chicago White Sox. Jeff Samardzija is slated to get the ball for the White Sox, though his name should include an asterisk as he is firmly on the trade block. The Indians will counter with Trevor Bauer.
One look at the rosters of both of these teams and it would be impossible to concoct a scenario in which they were separated by mere games in the standings. The Indians have underperformed offensively most of the season and were among the worst defensive teams in the league over the first two months. The White Sox remain one of the worst defensive teams in the league and have been the worst offensive team in the AL by a rather wide margin. By their Pythagorean Win-Loss record, the White Sox should be the worst team in the AL by quite a bit. They are just 16-28 against the AL Central so far this season, though the Indians haven't fared much better at 14-22.
For Jeff Samardzija, who grew up in Merrillville, Indiana, a small town in the northwest corner of the state considered to be part of the metro Chicago area, uncertainty at the trade deadline is nothing new. It's part of the business, but leaving another Chicago team would have to be a bit of a disappointment. Samardzija was excited to be acquired by the White Sox prior to this season and now faces the likelihood of getting shipped to a contender for the stretch run.
More often than not, Samardzija has deserved a better fate this season. He continues to exhibit very good control, even though his command has been a tad spotty at times. The biggest issue for Samardzija has been a big drop in strikeout rate. After striking out at least 22.9 percent of batters faced in each of the last four seasons, Samardzija's strikeout rate is around average at 19.1 percent. The key to pitching well for the White Sox is to keep hitters from putting balls in play whenever possible because they are terrible defensively. Samardzija's 4.08 ERA is part bad defense, bad marginal command, but his 3.60 FIP and 3.81 xFIP suggest that he has pitched a bit better than his traditional metrics suggest.
Trevor Bauer continues to be a mixed bag for the Indians. He was one of four Tribe hurlers to have at least 100 strikeouts by the All-Star Break, making the Indians the first team in MLB history to accomplish that feat. On the other hand, Bauer has missed up in the zone with some of his pitches and has allowed 14 gopher balls in 109.1 innings. Bauer's belief is that fly balls, and the occasional home run, are better than ground balls, which go for hits more often.
Frankly, it's Bauer's 9.8 percent walk rate that is more concerning than the home run rate. Only seven of Bauer's 14 home runs allowed have been of the solo variety, even though he has held opposing batters to a .223 batting average against. Two of those home runs have been grand slams and the other five have been two-run shots. Bauer has been dominant in two starts against the White Sox this season with one run allowed over 14.1 innings with 14 strikeouts and five walks.
MLB Prediction: Chicago White Sox
It's hard to know what to expect from Trevor Bauer and even harder to know what the Indians offense will give you. Jeff Samardzija doesn't issue many walks, which is a big component of the Indians offense this season. Both teams have solid bullpens, so this game seems to be a bit more of a toss-up than the -135 line would indicate. The White Sox are the value side because of it.

Curbing Malnutrition in Malawi through Improved Food Processing
April 04, 2013
TechnoServe and Partners in Food Solutions provide training to food manufacturers in Malawi to improve the quality of corn soy blend.
Corn soy blend – a milled, partially pre-cooked and fortified blended food – is critical to addressing hunger and malnutrition among schoolchildren, mothers and other vulnerable groups in Malawi. However, the World Food Programme recently noticed that pitfalls in manufacturing practices had resulted in a lower quality product with a short shelf life, bitter taste and an unpleasant odor.
We're not giving people handouts or grants. We're transferring knowledge.
To assess and address these issues, experts from TechnoServe and Partners in Food Solutions (a nonprofit consortium of General Mills, Cargill and DSM) teamed up and delivered a comprehensive training for more than 50 representatives of Malawian corn soy blend producers last November. The training was coordinated under Solutions to African Food Enterprises (SAFE) – a partnership between the U.S. Agency for International Development, TechnoServe and Partners in Food Solutions. Through classroom and hands-on technical training, producers learned manufacturing best practices, such as proper fortification and optimal cooking temperature.
"We're not giving people handouts or grants. We're transferring knowledge, and knowledge is very powerful and very valuable," says Brent Wibberley, TechnoServe's Regional Program Director and Chief of Party for SAFE. "By working with food processors we're hoping to make them more productive, thereby making them more sustainable. The more sustainable they are … the more affordable and better food is available."

Goat Point is a little cape near the Northern tip of Barbuda. It is beautiful and isolated, with blindingly white sand and flawless turquoise waters. If you want an escape from reality, a place where you can forget what hustle and bustle mean, this is it.
Set on Goat Island, You might think about stopping by regardless of whether you are staying very close. The surrounding region is not packed with guests, but that doesn't mean you won't find things to do here.
Almost too small to be called a cape, Goat Point has a very long stretch of white sugar sand along the coast, with interesting foliage and paths inland. It's far from where most of the development is on the island and you're sure to attune yourself to the natural beauty of the Caribbean here.
Unfortunately, you won't find any public restrooms along this coastline, though you may be able to use the facilities at a nearby business.
If you go for coasts which offer visitors a quiet environment, then you may want to try Goat Point; it's back within a more natural part of the region.
The beach is wonderful, but the surrounding area has a lot to offer, too. Look for it on the North West coast of Goat Island; it will be near other attractions like Barbuda Museum, which is one of the closest attractions to visit.
If your taste for travel keeps you looking for new activity and attraction options, this beach isn't far from any of the items in the following table.
|Barbuda Museum
|6.5 mi.
Goat Point is near Codrington, so a trip into the city is a definite option. Not far away you'll find Codrington, a city which is a region with interesting things to do, yet is never overly congested.
How many other people you encounter at Goat Point will be influenced by everything from the time of day to the capacity of nearby hotels. There aren't many large hotels in the immediate vicinity, but you may encounter guests from some of the area's smaller options.
You'll find a good number of places to stay within a car's reach. Some of the closest possibilities have been displayed in the following table.
|Nedd's Guest House
|Guest house
|Island Chalet
|Island Guest House
|Guest house
You might not find any places to eat in the immediate surroundings of this coastal destination, so it would be a good idea to pack a lunch for your time spent at the beach.
Of course, there are lots of other spots along the coast of Goat Island, so if Goat Point doesn't sound like your type of scene, you have options.
You may also want to consider Palm Beach, which is located five miles to the south.
You may find that Goat Point is a great fit for your vacation, but maybe you want to see more; if so, there are other beaches and natural attractions in Antigua you might like.
Help us improve! We welcome your corrections and suggestions.

Hamlet (1996)
A beautiful adaptation
Kenneth Branagh makes (or at least used to make) beautiful Shakespeare adaptations. Henry V was a powerful adaptation but i would say that this full, four-hour adaptation of Hamlet is even better. Everything is done with such great eloquence.
Hamlet of course is an adaptation of William Shakespeare's play about Hamlet, the prince of Denmark (played by Branagh) who believes that his uncle Claudius (Derek Jacobi) murdered his father to become king. Hamlet starts to make plots to get his guilty uncle to confess his foul act while Claudius starts to plot the murder of Hamlet.
The thing that i loved about the fact that this film was the full version of Hamlet is that this way all the nuances and social statements weren't left on the cutting room floor. In for example Olivier's version of the story all this is left off and the film feels like a lamer, less powerful version of the story no matter how beautiful that film looks. The dialog is of course Shakespeare's original words and those words feel as powerful and meaningful as ever.
And maybe a part of that power in the words is because the lines are performed so well. Kenneth Branagh plays the role of Hamlet with such power and calmness. He reads the lines so beautifully. Derek Jacobi's Claudius feels like an actual character in stead of being a two- dimensional character like in some of the other film adaptations (another advantage of the full four-hour version). Other good performances include ones by Julie Christie, a young Kate Winslet, Richard Briers and Michael Maloney.
As good as Branagh's performances is i think the way he directs the film is even more amazing. For a four-hour adaptation of a 16th century play the film is incredibly cinematic. Every single scene is directed with such intensity and power. His attention to detail with the technical aspects of the film is phenomenal. The production design is beautiful as are the costumes. The score is really good and is another one of things i liked about the film.
One might ask after all this praise why am i not giving it a 10/10. I'm not sure. Pretty much all the aspects of the film work really well. But i just wasn't perhaps blown away by it enough to give it the highest rating. But it still is a phenomenal film that i recommend very much. It's especially a must see for Shakespeare fans.
The Social Network (2010)
A masterpiece
I watched this movie for the 7th time today because because Gone girl is coming out next week. And once again I was struck by just how good this movie is. Wonderful acting, excellent directing, beautiful cinematography, incredibly sharp editing and an amazing screenplay.
The movie opens with Mark Zuckerberg, the creator of Facebook talking to his girlfriend Erica in a bar. At the end of the conversation Erica breaks up with Mark. From this starts the story of the birth of Facebook. The story is told through flashbacks while Zuckerberg is going through two lawsuits: one from the Winkelvoss twins, from whom Zuckerberg might or might not have stolen Facebook and one from his former best friend and the co-founder of Facebook, Eduardo Saverin. In the flashbacks we follow birth and rise of Facebook.
The script of this movie is amazing. It's easily the best script in years. The dialog is smart and fast, just what you would expect from the film's writer Aaron Sorkin. Mark is an interesting and layered character but he's not a nice guy. The script is actually full of mean and annoying characters and that's quite shocking because everyone else would like to tell the heroic story of how young Zuckerberg created the great Facebook. But Sorkin doesn't. He's not interested in that. Perhaps none of these guys are good but they're interesting and through these characters Sorkin tells a much more important and interesting story. The movie has themes that don't have anything to do with Facebook so it doesn't matter if you don't care about Facebook. I actually personally hate Facebook and think this is a great movie. Because this movie is not about Facebook.
The movie is of course about human relationships. All that Mark wants in the end is to have friends. He is someone who has almost no friends (pretty much only one) and he is not a nice guy. He is rude to everybody and he doesn't even notice it. He wants to be someone like Sean Parker, someone who has friends and still can say exactly what he wants. But even Sean can't do that even though he looks like that is exactly what he does. And in this play of wanting to be powerful and get friends he actually loses the one person who he could actually call his friend. He has surrounded himself now with people who aren't his friends but just people who act like they like him. And he is not happy about that because he knows that these people aren't his friends. So he tries to connect Erica, the one person who has been his friend and who he cares about that might be able to forgive him and who is probably the most honest and caring person he knows.
The performances are wonderful. Andrew Garfield is really good as Eduardo but the movie's best performance is easily Jesse Eisenberg as Mark Zuckerberg. He is excellent in every single scene he is in. The way he performs Sorkin's incredibly fast dialog is amazing and he also knows how to perform the quieter scenes.
But this movie wouldn't have been nearly as good as it is without David Fincher. He knows exactly what he wants from every scene and he goes and does it. Every scene is masterfully made and the feeling of the movie is really interesting.
Fincher also hired a lot of great artists to work on the technical aspects of the movie. The editing by Kirk Baxter and Angus Wall is close to perfect, Jeff Cronenworth's cinematography is excellent and Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross's score is extremely good.
I watched the movie for the first time when it came out in 2010 and I hated it. I thought that it was boring and Zuckerberg was annoying. And when Mark betrays Eduardo I became really angry at him because the only character I really cared about was Eduardo. Now I've grown up a bit and understand and appreciate the movie. The social network is a great movie and one of the best movies of the 2010s so far.
Bobby (2006)
Is 22 main characters too much for a 2 hour movie?
The short answer to the question above is yes but maybe not how you might think: you never wonder who is that character even though you have seen the character before. The actual problem is that the characters feel underdeveloped because you focus on a character for an average of less than 6 minutes. There is no sense in doing a 2 hour movie with so many main characters.
The idea of different kinds people meeting is used many times in different films with changing success. This time some of the people include a singer who is an alcoholic, her husband, a retired hotel doorman, the hotel manager, his wife and lover. The 22 characters are all at the Ambassador hotel for their own reasons during the shooting of Robert F. Kennedy. Some work there, some used to work there, some are guests and some are working on the Kennedy campaign.
Like I mentioned in the beginning there are too many main characters. They could have just had less characters because some of the story lines just felt pointless. There were some interesting characters but they were crushed by the short amount of time that they had. The ending was a bit weird: of course all the characters that clearly seemed like they were dying ended up surviving (especially the Elijah Wood character seemed already dead). I know that the director Emilio Estevez meant well with the story but he perhaps failed by taking more stories than he can tell (or most directors to be honest). Some of the dialog wasn't that excellent but it was never anything truly horrible. The actors are great and are perhaps the best thing about the movie. The directing wasn't spectacular but it didn't make it worse.
Bobby was a movie with a lot of potential and good acting but it didn't meet with my expectations.
Inglourious Basterds (2009)
Tarantino's best
Inglourious Basterds is set in Nazi-occupied France and is about a group of American soldiers called the Basterds working behind enemy lines, killing and scalping as many Nazis as possible. Their leader is lieutenant Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt), a man who for example likes to carve swastikas to the heads of Nazis (he usually lets one go to tell the story of the Basterds). In 1944 the allied forces plan "Operation Kino", an operation where most of the Nazi high command is killed during the presentation of a new movie. The Basterds are ordered to execute this important operation. The theater where the presentation is being held is owned by Shosanna Dreyfus (Mélanie Laurent) a French Jew whose family had been killed by SS colonel Hans Landa (Christoph Waltz) and is planning to burn the cinema down during the same presentation to kill the Nazi high command. But then something shocking happens: Hitler decides to attend the presentation.
The reason why this movie that is so good is the script. It's a very original story that feels like it couldn't have been written by anyone else than Quentin Tarantino. The dialog is sharp, the characters are interesting (except a couple of characters could have been developed a bit more) and the way that Tarantino keeps what is happening unrealistic in a way that it still doesn't feel like a joke is great . Especially the character of Hans Landa is extremely well written.
The second great thing about this movie is the acting. Christoph Waltz clearly gives the best performance as the charming but scary Hans Landa. I also think it's the best performance by a supporting actor that year. But the rest of the cast is really good as well, especially Mélanie Laurent, Daniel Brühl and Diane Kruger. But those performances are a bit less showy than the performance that Waltz gives.
The film is also well directed by Tarantino with some great directorial choices that make the film more than just a movie with a good script. The look of the film is also very good: the cinematography is very good and the production and costume design are just like what they're supposed to be.
As a whole Inglourious Basterds is a great entertaining film with an excellent script, great acting and directing, good cinematography and design. The final line of the movie feels like Tarantino is saying that this is his masterpiece. Whether it is that depends on the viewer. I personally think that this is Tarantino's best but this is coming from someone who has yet to see Reservoir dogs, Pulp fiction, Kill Bill vol. 1 and Death proof (although I don't think the last one is going to be that good). But I do think that Inglourious Basterds is one of the best movies of 2009.

I know you didn't ask me SPG, but I didn't drink around DD until maybe... this year? I had a drink at my birthday. She's 7. I think it's the only alcoholic drink I've ever had around her.
Why don't I drink around her generally? I really don't know. I just don't feel it's right to drink around her... not until she's older. Again, I'm not exactly sure why and it's not my upbringing... my Dad used to drink beer on the weekends, and Mum would have a glass of red of a night for as long as I can remember.
I do plan on getting off-my-face drunk for one night only in front of her when she's about 16. My mother did that and it was seriously the funniest thing I've ever seen. Kids need to have that crap to bring up at family gatherings... I don't want to deny DD that privilege.

Has anyone seen the play, Camelot? What did you think?
Great, Great, GREAT!!!
I loved it. I have the soundtrack, the dvd, and the music going thru my head.
A timeless classic.
I loved the Camelot movie. And, I have always loved the King Arthur stories.
I've seen the play quite a few times and liked it each time.
I saw it when it was in Philly a few years back.
Robert Goulet played King Arthur. His voice was as strong as ever.
The real star for me though, was the little dog.
It was the pet of a friend of mine (a champion border terrier - scruffy little things).
A "dated" classic though in my opinion.
Robert Goulet is in Camelot coming to Charlotte. I can't wait!

CURRENTS; Something Old Becomes New
By LENA WILLIAMS
Published: June 30, 1994
WANT to recycle your grandmother's old shawl? How about that tattered Victorian dress collecting dust in the attic? Can't part with those leftover pieces of fabric cluttering up the armoire?
Then Martha Mae Jones, below, the owner of the Downstairs Market in Chelsea, may be able to help.
Ms. Jones specializes in making one-of-a-kind scarves, vests, jackets, pillows, totes and hats from articles of sentimental value, and designs a line of men's and women's wear using textile fragments from Asia, Africa, Europe and South America.
That shawl is now a pillow, the Victorian dress now decorates a velvet hat and the pieces of fabric were woven into a man's vest.
"My work is influenced by two primary social movements, conservation and multiculturalism," said Ms. Jones, who calls herself a "textile collagist."
Ms. Jones studied weaving and design in Sweden. She describes her store at 236 West 15th Street as a "cross between Barneys and a bodega." An antique case holds vintage jewelry. Throw pillows cover a white wicker chair and cast-iron table.
Her Victorian hats are priced from $85; kimono-style jackets ($250 and up); tote bags ($60 to $75); pillows, $40 to $90. LENA WILLIAMS
