Series chronology
Series 7
Big Brother 2007, also known as Big Brother 8, was the eighth series of the British reality television series Big Brother. The show followed twenty-three contestants, known as housemates, who were isolated from the outside world for an extended period of time in a custom built House. Each week, one or more of the housemates were eliminated from the competition and left the House. The last remaining housemate, Brian Belo, was declared the winner, winning a cash prize of £100,000 (the second housemate to do so after Liam McGough was awarded the same amount in the third week).
The series launched on Channel 4 on 30 May 2007 and ended on 31 August 2007, lasting 94 days - the longest British edition of Big Brother to date. Davina McCall returned as presenter for her eighth consecutive year. Eleven housemates entered on launch night, with an additional seven men being introduced by the time of the fourth week. The series was watched by an average of 3.9 million viewers, the lowest viewed series of the show at the time.
The first series of Big Brother to air since the highly controversial fifth celebrity series, Big Brother 8 was the subject of viewer complaints and press attention, mainly regarding the ejection of a housemate for the use of a racial slur.

The first round of auditions started on 6 January 2007[1] at the SECC in Glasgow, where there was a queue of three hundred people.[2]
On 8 March 2007, it was announced that The Carphone Warehouse would not return to sponsor Big Brother 8 after cancelling its sponsorship of Celebrity Big Brother 5,[3] and on 21 March, that Virgin Media would sponsor the show, for a reported £3 million.[4] Virgin Media's idents for the show use footage from Big Brother programmes from all around the world, including Germany, Brazil, Philippines and the Netherlands.[citation needed]
Eye logo
The iconic Big Brother eye has been redesigned to what has been described as a "centrifugal inter-locking RGB rainbow test card"[5] by its designer Daniel Eatock.[6]
On Channel 4, Davina McCall remained as main host of the live shows such as live launch, evictions, finale and other special shows where there may be a twist taking place. Marcus Bentley returned as narrator of the nightly highlight shows. For the first time since Big Brother 5 in 2004, there was also no highlight show broadcast on Saturday nights. In the early years of Big Brother, a live stream would feature on Channel E4, however this was omitted from the schedule until the final series (BB11-2010) Sunday night's highlight show would, instead, show just a handful of footage from Friday, and would instead focus more on Saturday's events in the house.
McCall also hosted Big Brother: On the Couch, a psychology show broadcast on Sunday before the main show. It was similar to Big Brother's Big Brain, which was broadcast the previous year before being axed.[7] It did not return in any subsequent series' of Big Brother.
Dermot O'Leary returned as host Big Brother's Little Brother. On 28 November 2007 he announced his departure from the show.[8] With his last presenting role being in the following Big Brother: Celebrity Hijack in January 2008.
Diary Room Uncut returned in the same time slot as last year. On Fridays, housemates would make podcasts.
Big Brother's Big Mouth returned in the same late night timeslot, however Russell Brand did not return, having quit the show earlier in the year.[9] No permanent replacement was made and instead a different host took control each week.
Ofcom statement
Before the launch programme, Channel 4 presented a statement from Ofcom explaining the racism incidents from Celebrity Big Brother earlier in the year.
Summary of findings from Ofcom
In January 2007, Ofcom received over 44,500 complaints, mainly about potentially racist material.
Ofcom has concluded that Channel 4 failed to handle appropriately the strong content it was transmitting. This resulted in breaches of the Ofcom Broadcasting Code, which is designed to ensure that when broadcasters show potentially offensive material, they do so in a way which offers adequate protection to the viewer.
Ofcom has found that Channel 4 breached the Code on three separate occasions. Its decision to repeat one of these incidents in its early morning show resulted in a further breach for failing to protect children.
There was also a serious failure in Channel 4's compliance processes which meant that it was not aware of all the relevant activity in the House at a particularly critical time. This compounded its failure to ensure compliance with the Code.
These are significant failings. Ofcom has therefore imposed a formal sanction on Channel Four, directing it to broadcast this statement. This ensures that the largest number of viewers will be made fully aware of the seriousness of Channel 4's failure to comply.
This was followed immediately by a Channel 4 ident, and then the Big Brother titles. Channel 4 also broadcast the Ofcom statement on the morning of 31 May 2007 before the early morning repeat, and again immediately before the first eviction on Friday 15 June.[10]
It was initially believed that this would be the last series to be aired from the house in Elstree Studios, with a new house set to be built in Hammersmith for 2008, although, Endemol decided to renew the lease at its current location for another two years. The layout of the house remained much the same as the previous series, although the kitchen moved to the other side of the main living area.[citation needed] One big theme in the house was annoyance; the kitchen appliances were scattered around the house, with the oven and heat proof surface in the bedroom and the fridge in the garden. As further annoyance, the bathtub was placed in an open space right next to the main living room. Where the oven was in the bedroom was approximately where the kitchen area was located in Big Brother 7.[11] The bedroom contained a single, double and triple bed as well as two four-person beds. Outside the bedroom window, in the main living area, is a lip shaped sofa that the presenters of the show refer to as "the lips". The house also contains a salon/bathroom, which houses two large hair dryers and two steam suits.[citation needed]
As well as the kitchen fridge, the garden contained a swimming pool, a seating area[citation needed] and, due to the smoking ban that came into effect in all public places during the series, a smoking area which housemates had to use from Day 1, even though the smoking ban didn't come into play until 1 July. This was checked by health officials, and deemed acceptable.[12] The grass from the previous series has been replaced with AstroTurf.[citation needed] The garden was one of the smallest this year, in comparison to the garden in Big Brother 7. On Day 25 it was revealed that a caravan was hidden behind a garden wall. The caravan came with two single beds and sleeping bags. Brian and Charley went "on holiday" to the caravan for one night. The caravan was again accessible from day 36, this time any of the housemates were allowed to use the room.[13] An extension to the pool was revealed on Day 67, along with a bar area. The area was hidden behind the "wet" sign in the garden.[14] "The Insider" on BBLB revealed that there was a fully functioning washing machine hidden in the garden, throughout the show.[15] Dermot O'Leary revealed this to the housemates during the BBLB reunion show. Because of the Big Brother 7 water shortage, the garden included a water tower, which at the beginning of the series was full. The water tower was located next to the fridge and the mangle.
Between the entrance/exit stairs and the main house was a vestibule area. This was used for several tasks, rewards and punishments, such as Ziggy's dating task, Amanda and Sam's birthday party, the punishments on Day 43, and the "Sin Bin" which is the room Charley was made to stay in while the rest of the housemates had their sin party.[citation needed]
Diary Room
A corridor was added between the Diary Room door and the main house which changes colour from red to blue to green when the "eye" button to open the door is pressed. The diary room chair was changed to a much larger see-through chair which contains white neon lights. For Big Brother: Celebrity Hijack, the lights inside the chair were coloured purple, to keep up with E4's theme. The diary room resides in almost the same place as last year, but set back a bit, making the living area larger. As in recent years, the diary room was used for several tasks. The Time Machine from Big Brother's time machine task was in the diary room. It was also used for the Seven Deadly Sins task.
Hidden rooms
The House contained a number of hidden rooms that were accessed either through the diary room or through a store room off the living area. At various points in the show, all or part of these rooms were opened up for various tasks and twists.
One of these rooms was slept in by Thaila Zucchi, in her role as "Pauline", and it was Australia-themed and contained a kangaroo statue, a surfboard, plants and beanbags. The bedroom also contained the dossier from which "Pauline" could find out things about her housemates. Only "Pauline" was allowed in the room at that time.[16]
The rooms were later on used to house five 'halfway housemates' as part of a twist. It included a dormitory, common room, wash room and kitchenette as well as a small garden.[citation needed]
Periodically throughout the series, housemates conducted various tasks in some of these rooms.
For the BBTV task, a newsroom was built, where two housemates transmitted news to the rest of the house, such as messages from home.[17] The rooms were also used as a studio for a gameshow and later a talent show.
It was used as a "The Happy Room" to cheer up Charley and Billi, who were instructed to wear "happy" t-shirts and baseball caps for the duration of their stay. The room was full of red beanbags, and featured cheery slogans on the walls. While in the room, Big Brother played the tune, If You're Happy and You Know It.[18]
During the seven deadly sins task, it was turned into "The Room of Nicky" and contained pictures, books and footage of Nicky and also a sofa with cushions spelling N-I-C-K-Y. Nicky was instructed to stay in the room and learn to appreciate herself until Big Brother allowed her to leave.[citation needed]
For Big Brother's birthday task, a Practice Room was built, where the entertainers had to practice.[19] A party room was then provided with a ball pool, small stage, and an area for food.[20] Amanda and Sam, Gerry, Nicky, and Ziggy were chosen as the party guests. Carole's job was the face painter. Chanelle and Liam performed magic. Charley and Tracey were clowns. Brian was the final musical performer.
On Day 59, five new housemates Amy, Jonty, Shanessa, David and Kara entered the house and were told they would live in the Halfway House which was reached by going through the store room or through the diary room and down a coridoor. The Halfway Housemates and ordinary house mates were swapped around for different reasons. Day 59 Amy, David, Jonty, Kara and Shanessa enter the Halfway House. David visits the main house. Day 60 In the morning Amy visits the main house, followed by Jonty in the afternoon. Day 61 In the morning Shanessa visits the main house, followed by Kara in the afternoon. Day 62 Housemates in the main house choose David and Kara to enter the house swapped with Ziggy. Day 63 The Halfway Housemates have a task called Jack in a box to win a place in the main house. Shanessa won and was swapped with Liam who Shanessa chose. Day 64 The four Halfway housemates had to choose to swap with four housemates in the main house they chose David, Kara, Shanessa and Tracey who moved in halfway house and were automatically faced eviction. Day 65 The halfway housemates are given a last night to go into the main house for a few hours. Day 66 The first halfway housemate to be evicted is Shanessa, the second is David. Then Kara and Tracey re-enter the main house for good.
There were a total of 23 housemates in this series of Big Brother, making it the largest number of housemates to enter the Big Brother house ever. Each week, two or more housemates were nominated to be evicted by the general public until the winner was left. All of the housemates that entered on the first day were female, then on the third day; a male housemate – Ziggy – entered the house.[21] On 7 June 2007 it was announced on Big Brother's Big Mouth that Day 10 would see the addition of two male housemates, in replacement of the cancelled eviction.[22] These two housemates were Gerry and Seány. On 15 June, four new male housemates entered the house. They were Billi, Jonathan, Liam, and Brian. Jonathan left on Day 35 due to a family death from day 34 that he wanted to attend to.[citation needed]
The series was eventually won by housemate Brian Belo on 31 August 2007, with twin housemates Sam and Amanda polling second place, and housemate Liam in third. The main eye colour featured this year was multi-coloured.[23] A new housemate called "Pauline" entered the house on 8 July, supposedly from Big Brother Australia, however, her true identity was actress Thaila Zucchi, and worked as a mole for Big Brother, before being removed on Day 42. Five new housemates, Amy, Jonty, Shanessa, David & Kara entered the house in a separate room called Halfway House on Day 59.[24] Rylan Clark, who would go on to appear in Celebrity Big Brother 11, was scheduled to be a surprise housemate during this series, passing the auditions and waiting in hiding to enter the house. However, the day before he was due to enter, his identity was leaked in the press.[25]

^ Amanda & Sam originally entered the House as individual Housemates. They accepted an offer from Big Brother on Day 69 to become a joint Housemate for the remainder of the series.
^ Seány, Carole and Jonathan had to choose one of their fellow Housemates to receive what they believed to be the £100,000 prize fund on Day 22. They chose Liam and he was awarded £100,000 separate from the eventual winner of the series.
^ Chanelle returned to the House as a guest not eligible to win on Day 89 as part of a task. She was allowed to remain in the House after the task, but as she broke a rule of discussing the outside world, she was asked to leave the house immediately.
Each week in the Big Brother House is summarised in the table on the main page. A typical week begins with the nominations, shopping task, and ends with the eviction of a Housemate during the following Friday's episode. Evictions, tasks, and other noteworthy events for a particular week are noted. Some of the events listed may not be in order of sequence.
Tasks On Day 2 the housemates were given a breakdancing task, they were split into two crews and competed against each other.[26] On Day 3 Shabnam and Carole conducted a podcast by order of Big Brother. The podcast is a weekly task taking place on Fridays and is available for download on the Channel 4 website. On Day 10 Carole hosted the weekly podcast.[27]
Punishments On Day 6, Shabnam was punished for discussing nominations, and Big Brother made the bathroom off-limits to all housemates.[28] On Day 8, Ziggy and Emily were punished by being forced to pick another housemate to be punished on their behalf.

Tasks Big Brother gave the housemates a charades task with a twist of having to play it under water. As a prize for completing the task successfully, housemates were rewarded with a chinese take away meal.[31] On Day 12 Gerry and Seány were instructed by Big Brother to interview each of their fellow housemates in the "Big Brother Board Room" (the vestibule before the front door of the House) to decide which two housemates would be nominating alongside them.[32] On day 14 the housemates were given a shopping task which instructed them to remain lying down (but moving), dressed in sardine suits in a sardine tin filled with brine and fish guts.[33] The housemates failed the task after only remaining in the tin for one hour and 26 minutes. Hidden in a small sardine tin in the garden was the magic number, four hours and 20 minutes, this was the time limited Big Brother had set for the housemates to remain in the tin in order to win the task.[34] On Day 15, the house were given a pile of pork pies and tankards of beer, and a dart board. On the bottom of each pie, there was a conversation topic, and all housemates had to contribute to the discussions.

They chose Liam.[45] Billi, Brian, Jonathan and Liam conducted the weekly podcast.[46]
Punishments After using written communication, Ziggy and Carole were given chalk and school ties, and were made to write "I must not participate in written communication within the Big Brother house. This is a fundamental breach of the Big Brother Rules, for which I apologise." and "I must not take writing materials lent to me in good faith by Big Brother and then use this writing material to communicate secret messages. Both acts are a fundamental breach of the Big Brother Rules, for which I apologise." 100 times.[47]
Exits Seány was evicted on Day 24.[48]
Tasks On Day 25, the housemates had a Knobbly Knees Contest, in which Brian and Charley won. Their prize was a holiday in the Big Brother caravan.[49] On Day 26, they were told that for this week's task, the housemates must stay awake for 60 hours, and were only allowed 3 hours of sleep between them, and if someone closed their eyes for more than a minute, a clock on the wall would begin counting down.[50] For a mini task on Day 27, Liam and Laura were dressed up as Little Bo Peep, and had to correctly count how many times the other housemates – who were dressed as sheep – jumped over fences placed in the garden. They completed this task successfully, and earned an extra hour on the sleep clock.[51] However, the housemates voted and decided to quit the task,[52] and subsequently failed the task.[53] Amanda, Brian, Laura and Ziggy conducted the weekly podcast.[54]
Punishments For discussing nominations with other housemates, both Billi and Charley's nominations were cancelled.[55] For failing their sleep task, housemates were forced to live on a diet of 3 portions of slop a day.[56] After Billi and Charley continuously argued, they were sent to the happy room to cheer up.[18]
Exits Billi was evicted on Day 31.[57]
Tasks Carole had to match the seven deadly sins to housemates. She picked Laura as sloth,[58] Tracey as greed,[59] Ziggy as gluttony,[60] Liam as lust,[61] Amanda as pride,[62] Nicky as envy,[63] and Charley as wrath.[64] Each housemate was given their own task. Four or more housemates must pass this task to receive a luxury shopping budget. All but Charley passed. As a reward, The contestants were given a party with a chocolate fountain, alcohol and "Seven Sin costumes" while Charley sat in the Sin Bin watching them and missing the party.

Tasks Housemates had to have a party for Big Brother's birthday, where five housemates partied, and the remaining six provided the entertainment. They had to party until Big Brother told them to stop.[81] Housemates passed this task.[82] Liam and Sam conducted the weekly podcast interviewing housemates for "Big Brother's Birthday". Nicky had a personal task to perform a stand-up routine to win the housemates a takeaway[83] and Gerry had to answer questions to win alcohol to go with the takeaway.
Punishments For discussing nominations, Chanelle and Ziggy were restricted to only one nomination each.[84]
Exits Nicky was evicted on Day 52.[85]
Tasks On Day 53, the housemates were given the task of answering philosophical questions.[86] For their weekly task, housemates have to run a TV Channel, BBTV.[87] After completing various TV shows (which included an X-Factor style talent show) and news bulletins (which featured messages from their families) the housemates passed the task.[88] On Day 58, the housemates were asked to match sounds they heard to different housemates.[89] They passed the task, and were given toilet paper with their faces on as a prize.[90] The housemates also got a chance to speak to the Australian Big Brother House.[91][92] All housemates conducted the weekly podcast, each performing a 2-minute radio show.[93]

Shanessa won.[96] The weekly Podcast was hosted by the Halfway Housemates.

The Housemates then had to choose one of themselves to move to the Halfway House, to which Ziggy said he wanted to go.[97] Shanessa entered the main house on Day 63, after winning the Jack-in-a-Box task, and had to choose a current Housemate to replace her. She chose Liam. Amy, Jonty, Liam and Ziggy moved back into the house on Day 64,[98] in exchange for David, Kara, Shanessa and Tracey.[99]

The housemates had to guess where the monkeys had been. If they correctly guess, they win a speciality dish from that country or place.
Punishments For drawing symbols using eyeliner, Amanda, Sam, Gerry, Jonty and Kara had to do all the cooking and cleaning for the house.[111] Because Carole hid some biscuits in her drawer and the housemates ate them, knowing they were confiscated, as well as Carole whisking eggs, despite the new rule saying that the above housemates were the only ones who could do this, the luxury shopping budget was reduced to a basic budget.[citation needed]

^Note 1 : As the only male housemate, only Ziggy was eligible to nominate this week. The eviction was later cancelled due to Emily being ejected.
^Note 2 : This week, new housemates Seány and Gerry were two of four housemates allowed to nominate, and together had to choose the other two housemates to nominate with them. They chose Sam and Amanda.
^Note 3 : As punishment for discussing nominations, Billi and Charley's nominations were voided by Big Brother. Had this not happened Charley and Nicky would have faced the public vote with them.
^Note 4 : As part of "Fake Week", the "evicted" housemate, Charley, was interviewed by Davina, with the interview shown on the plasma screen in the house, and then put back in the house.
^Note 5 : As punishment for discussing nominations, Chanelle and Ziggy were only allowed to nominate one housemate each.
^Note 6 After continuous swapping of housemates between the Main House and the Halfway House, the housemates remaining in the Halfway House automatically faced the public vote, in which there was a double eviction.
^Note 7 : Amanda and Sam chose to become one housemate on Day 69. However, as a result they both automatically faced eviction. As well as finding out that they were nominated, Amy, Jonty and Kara-Louise were also able to see who nominated who.
^Note 8 : For Week 11's shopping task those who won mini-tasks gained "guru status" and were immune from eviction. All other housemates automatically faced the public vote. The Gurus had to decide from the two housemates with the highest number of votes (this was Carole with 49% and Gerry with 24%) whom to evict. The Gurus unanimously decided to evict Gerry.
^Note 9 : In Week 12, there was a double eviction.
^Note 10 : There were no nominations in the final week. The public were voting for the housemate they wanted to win, rather than evict.

Criticism and controversy
Racist language
Nine days into the series, Channel 4 was criticised for deciding to air the word "nigger" on their daily highlights show.[123] After the criticism they received for not handling the Celebrity Big Brother racism allegations properly back in January, they were quick to intervene after Emily used the word in conversation with Charley. On the other hand, Charley and Nicky subsequently used the same contentious word several times, in reference to Emily's use. No action was seen to be taken against them.[124] After Emily's disqualification from the competition was announced, 922 viewers complained to Ofcom, the British television regulator, believing that it was unfair.[125] Another 270 people expressed dissatisfaction with Channel 4's decision to air the word "nigger" uncensored.[125] Parr was invited on BBLB, which also caused disturbances, but postponed her appearance. The press and Dermot presumed she postponed due to the controversy, but as she revealed in her BBLB interview, it was not.
Furthermore, on Day 40, Channel 4 confirmed that Charley had been called to the Diary Room and reprimanded after using the word "nigger" twice on one night. This was not broadcast on the nightly highlights programme or the live feed, further inflaming rumours about favouritism towards Charley. A Big Brother spokesperson claimed "Charley used the N-word as a black woman to refer to another black person. We judged her use of the term different from Emily's. But Big Brother called her to the Diary Room to remind her that this word could cause offence."[126][127]

My first card from Jamaica comes from Rachel. 🙂
Jamaica is an island country situated in the Caribbean Sea, comprising the third-largest island of the Greater Antilles. Jamaica is the fifth-largest island country in the Caribbean.
Once a Spanish possession known as Santiago, in 1655 it came under the rule of England (later Great Britain), and was called Jamaica. It achieved full independence from the United Kingdom on 6 August 1962. With 2.8 million people, it is the third most populous Anglophone country in the Americas, after the United States and Canada. Kingston is the country's largest city and its capital, with a population of 937,700.
Jamaica is a Commonwealth realm, with Queen Elizabeth II as its monarch and head of state. Her appointed representative in the country is the Governor-General of Jamaica, currently Patrick Allen.

My first card from Bahamas comes from Niki. 🙂
The Bahamas is an island country consisting of more than 700 islands, cays, and islets in the Atlantic Ocean. Its capital is Nassau on the island of New Providence.
Originally inhabited by the Lucayan, a branch of the Arawakan-speaking Taino people, the Bahamas were the site of Columbus' first landfall in the New World in 1492. Although the Spanish never colonized the Bahamas, they shipped the native Lucayans to slavery in Hispaniola. The islands were mostly deserted from 1513 until 1648, when English colonists from Bermuda settled on the island of Eleuthera.
The Bahamas became a British Crown colony in 1718, when the British clamped down on piracy. After the American War of Independence, thousands of American Loyalists, taking their enslaved Africans, moved to the Bahamas, where the Americans set up a plantation economy. After Britain abolished the international slave trade in 1807, the Royal Navy resettled many free Africans liberated from illegal slave ships in the Bahamas during the 19th century. Hundreds of American slaves and Black Seminoles escaped to the islands from Florida, and nearly 500 were freed from American merchant ships in the domestic trade. Slavery in the Bahamas was abolished in 1834. Today the descendants of slaves and free Africans form the majority of the population; issues related to the slavery years are part of society. The Bahamas became an independent Commonwealth realm in 1973, retaining Queen Elizabeth II as its monarch.

My very first card from the beautiful island of Mauritius comes from Tasneem. 🙂
Mauritius is an island nation in the Indian Ocean about 2,000 kilometres off the southeast coast of the African continent. The country includes the islands of Mauritius, Rodrigues, the islands of Agalega and the archipelago Saint Brandon.
The first Portuguese explorers found no indigenous people living on the island in 1507. The Dutch settled on the island in 1638 and abandoned it in 1710. Five years later, the island became a French colony and was renamed Isle de France. The British took control of Mauritius in 1810 during the Napoleonic Wars. The country remained under British rule until it became an independent Commonwealth realm on 12 March 1968 and a republic within the Commonwealth on 12 March 1992.
The country is multi-ethnic and multi-cultural; most Mauritians are multilingual, and English, French, Creole and Asian languages are used. The government system is closely modelled on the Westminster parliamentary system. Mauritius is highly ranked for democracy and for economic and political freedom.
The island of Mauritius was the only home of the Dodo bird. The bird became extinct fewer than eighty years after its discovery.

IGTV: Instagram's new YouTube competitor, which CEO Kevin Systrom announced Wednesday at a press event in San Francisco.
Instagram is getting serious about challenging YouTube.
Today, the company announced IGTV, Instagram's new initiative that lets users create standalone video channels for longform video.
IGTV is launching now as a standalone app for iOS and Android and will also be available in the main Instagram app.
Unlike YouTube, IGTV is just for full-screen, vertical videos. But like YouTube, the service is open to anyone who wants to make a dedicated channel. Users can follow channels and interact with video creators via comments.
"This is really an evolution of our mission from day one," Instagram CEO Kevin Systrom said at a press event in San Francisco.
"Long form vertical video from the creators you love. It's mobile first, it's simple."
IGTV channels are tied to your main Instagram account, so you don't need to make a new account or separate handle. If you make a channel, it will appear in your main Instagram profile, alongside Story highlights. If you follow people with an IGTV channel, you'll also be notified of new videos in a new section next to your inbox.
For Instagram, which also announced Wednesday that it passed 1 billion users, IGTV is its most significant new feature to date.
For the Facebook-owned service, it's increasingly important to chip away at YouTube's dominance in video.
Like YouTube, Instagram also has a large community of influential users with gigantic followings. But right now, the only way for those users to post extended videos is to go live. The only catch is that live videos don't work for every occasion and, most importantly for Instagram, don't contain ads.
Launching a dedicated space for longer form video solves both these problems as creators can share longer, more produced videos on Instagram, which they can then monetize.
IGTV won't have ads in the beginning, Systrom said, but said it likely will in the future. He also noted creators are able to link out from IGTV channels, which can help them start monetizing their channels right away through brand partnerships.
Outside of increasing ad revenue, IGTV could also help encourage some of the most sought-after internet video creators to create content for Instagram rather than YouTube. Although Instagram remains popular, YouTube is currently the most popular social network among U.S. teens, according to a recent study from the Pew Research Center.
That's a worrying trend for Facebook, which has seen its core app decline in popularity with teens over the last few years.
Which may help explain why Instagram's IGTV and Facebook's new game show-like live videos are suddenly so attractive.

Faith Leaders Call for Debt Relief to Puerto Rico
By S. Chandra	Reprint | | Print |
WASHINGTON, Aug 31 2015 (IPS) - Puerto Rico's religious leaders have called for debt relief of the Caribbean U.S. territory in the face of the 72 billion dollar liability that represents 20,000 dollars of debt for every man, woman and child.
In a statement issued Aug. 31, the clergy called on the U.S. Federal Reserve to intervene if Congress fails to pass bankruptcy protection to the financially-strapped island.
"This debt crisis threatens to push more of our people into poverty and put people out of work," said San Juan Archbishop Roberto González Nieves, leader of Puerto Rico's mostly Catholic population.
"The religious community stands with vulnerable people and we call for the crisis to be resolved in a way that protects the poor and grows our economy," he added.
At a press conference in San Juan, leaders of the major religious groups laid out six principles to resolve the crisis.
"Puerto Rico's religious leaders are fighting for the lives of their people," stated Eric LeCompte, executive director of the faith-based development coalition Jubilee USA Network.
Jubilee USA Network is an alliance of more than 75 U.S. organisations and 400 faith communities working with 50 Jubilee global partners. Jubilee's mission is to build an economy that serves, protects and promotes the participation of the most vulnerable.
LeCompte visited Puerto Rico in mid-August to advise religious and political leaders on solutions to the crisis. "We need to get Puerto Rico's debt back to sustainable levels and ensure that the island has a path for economic growth," he said
Some of the hedge funds, arguing for cuts in Puerto Rico's economic growth, were or are currently involved in debt disputes in Greece, Argentina and Detroit, Michigan.
Two recent reports, one commissioned by a group of hedge funds which purchased the island's distressed debt and the other authorised by Puerto Rico's own government, suggest new austerity plans to pay off portions of the debt.
The reports note a range of "fiscal adjustments", including reducing the minimum wage, education resources and healthcare costs. One of the principles promoted by the coalition of religious leaders is that any resolution to the financial crisis prevents further austerity plans.
The religious leaders raised concern over predatory hedge fund activity in their statement. Beyond the Catholic Church, other religious groups signing the statement include Methodists, Lutherans, Evangelicals, Pentecostals and the Disciples.
"As religious leaders, we see how desperate the situation is for Puerto Rico's people," said Reverend Heriberto Martínez Rivera, secretary-general of Puerto Rico's Biblical Society and the leader of the religious coalition confronting the debt crisis.
"Too many of our people are already suffering from austerity policies and many brothers and sisters have left for the United States hungry for work and a better quality of life," he added.
Beyond calling for debt relief and criticising austerity policies, the religious leaders' statement asserts the need for greater Puerto Rican budget transparency and participation in future debt negotiations by people negatively affected by the crisis.

Peer Pressure: The Films of Ruben Ostlund
By C.J. Prince @cj_prin on April 8, 2015
Ruben Östlund is a provocateur. He's a filmmaker who designs his films around confronting viewers with the kinds of necessary questions that rarely get asked. His primary target: the way society influences people to act out in ways that go directly against their own interests. His films call out the unspoken rules people obey in order to function with each other, and question why we sometimes generate a conflict between our thoughts and actions. Last year, Östlund finally broke through to North American Audiences with Force Majeure, his award-winning film about a family's skiing vacation gone wrong.
Up until recently, Östlund's previous films weren't available for North American audiences; none of them received distribution of any kind in the US and Canada. But now, thanks to Force Majeure, Östlund's first three films, along with two of his shorts, have been screening across the US and Canada in the series In Case of No Emergency: The Films of Ruben Östlund. The series has now made its way to Toronto, where it will screen at the TIFF Bell Lightbox from April 9th to 14th.
Going through Östlund's filmography, it's easy to see an evolution of form and content that increases in scale and ambition. The Guitar Mongoloid (Screens Sunday, April 12th at 6:30pm, along with two short films), Östlund's debut feature, is his most basic work, and the one that has Swedish filmmaker Roy Andersson's influence all over it. The film plays out in a series of slightly connected vignettes, with the camera observing several groups of societal outcasts across the same city. It's a hit-and-miss collection of scenes that go from inappropriately hilarious (a woman with OCD trying to leave her apartment) to unbearably tense (two bikers convince their friend to play Russian roulette). Other than the focus on society's lower classes and "undesirables," there isn't much of a thematic connection here, but the film establishes Östlund's distinct style from the get-go: a stationary camera, usually placed far away from the action, observing events over a long take. The literal and figurative distance from the characters gives Östlund's film the feeling of watching surveillance footage rather than something invented.
Östlund's obsession with realism is at its strongest in The Guitar Mongoloid, as the shoestring budget, shoddy audio and blurring of one character's face give off the sense that the film is more documentary than fiction. In Östlund's second feature, Involuntary (Screens Saturday, April 11th at 6:30pm), he improves on the format he established in Guitar Mongoloid. Involuntary also unfolds in a series of vignettes, but with stronger visuals and a strong thematic link between each of the film's five stories. Within each segment, a trend emerges: characters behave in ways that go against their best interests, just so they won't get ostracized. It's reminiscent of psychological tests and phenomenon like the Milgram experiment, or the infamous murder of Kitty Genovese, where external forces paralyzed people into immoral action or complete inaction. Involuntary actually has a scene where a teacher puts one of her students through a psychological test to point out the power of peer pressure. A student is shown a picture of two lines, one short and one long, and gets asked to pick the longer one, not knowing that no matter what she picks her classmates will disagree with her, insisting the shorter line is the right one. Eventually the girl incorrectly picks the shorter line, even though she admits she knows it isn't the correct answer.
Three years after Involuntary, Östlund took a massive leap forward with Play (Screens Thursday, April 9th at 6:30pm), his best film to date. The style stays the same, but this time the focus stays on one story instead of several. Based on a series of real-life petty crimes, Play follows a group of black, immigrant children as they bully and rob three well-to-do kids through an elaborate, lengthy scheme. It's a highly provocative film, and signifies a major shift for Östlund. He suggests that the bullying kids get away with their crimes because their targets have a fear of being labelled racist if they don't comply. Naturally, this racial aspect of the film sparked some outrage from viewers, but there was something more unsettling about what happens in Play. In Involuntary, there was no sense of maliciousness on anyone's part; people tended to put the pressure on themselves to do things they didn't want to do out of a need to "fit in." In Play, the characters have evolved. They're aware of societal standards, and have no qualms about taking advantage of them to get what they want. That blatant "rule breaking" could have been what got under viewers' skin the most.
Force Majeure (Screens Tuesday, April 14th at 6:30pm) isn't nearly as provocative as Play, but its story of a father's selfish action during a crisis is by far his most accessible film to date. It uses a more conventional style (it might be the first time he uses shot reverse shot in any of his films), and its focus on a white, upper-class nuclear family means the racial landmines of Play are avoided altogether. But some of Force Majeure's themes, like dealing with people's "selfish" instincts to survive, are far more universal. And it's Östlund's funniest film to date, with almost every moment dedicated to tearing down its main character's masculinity in the most uncomfortable ways imaginable. Force Majeure's teeth may not be as sharp as Play's, but the film still has a lot of bite to it. And while the film's success—a US remake was just announced not too long ago—could push Östlund in a more mainstream direction, it's hard to imagine his work getting any less fascinating. Few filmmakers can confront viewers with such grand-scale, daunting questions and get them laughing at the same time.

OPTIMAL CONTROL LAWS FOR MICROBURST ENCOUNTER.
Robert Frank Stengel
Simplified structures for longitudinal control laws that reduce an aircraft's response to the strong head-tailwind and downdraft variations associated with microbursts are presented. They are based on non-zero-set-point linear-quadratic regulators that command throttle setting and angle of attack as functions of velocity and flight path angle, and they can incorporate direct measurements of the wind profile if available. Selection of cost functions to be minimized by feedback control has been aided by a prior study of classical control laws and exact non-linear-optimal flight paths through realistic microburst wind profiles. The resulting optimal control laws have an adaptive, dual-mode structure that can be implemented either in flight-director logic or in an autopilot.

Longer springs put excessive pressure and shock against the whole system when reaching the end of the stroke, and also continue putting excessive pressure against the piston, cylinder, and gearbox overall, even after the BB has left.
A shorter spring puts less pressure against the piston and cylinder head (outlet), and will actually create less noise as the piston slap is not as unnecessarily exaggerated.

Home Health At CES 2022, LG shows technology that improves our lives
At CES 2022, LG shows technology that improves our lives
"As we all return to a certain level of normalcy, we must ask ourselves an important question: do we want to go back to life before, or do we want to step forward and aspire to a better life?". LG Electronics CEO William Cho opened the virtual keynote of the Korean giant at CES 2022. The company has always had "Life's Good" as its motto (although LG actually stands for Lucky Goldstar, but this is a ' another story): this year the aspiration is that life is not only good, but even "better".
"For LG the answer is clear," explained Cho in his introduction, "and that is that we must help improve everyone's life. Our aim is to make our innovations available to a more sustainable, more accessible life, with more personal and more inclusive technologies ".
Great aspirations
An interesting marketing narrative, albeit not very original, which translates into a series of innovations for the present of domestic technology and in some concepts for the future among which it is not always easy to weave a common thread. Among the most interesting and different from the usual products presented by the Korean company at the Las Vegas fair there are for example the LG PuriCare Aero Tower air purifier, and the LG One TVs / monitors: QuickFlex and StandByMe.
The purifier is a fairly impressive turret with a central slot that almost resembles a speaker to the Bang & Olufsen. It includes both a HEPA filter and a UV LED system for removing bacteria and other germs from the air. Designed for the North American market, it is clearly a response to the need for new products to make indoor air healthier.
TVs to take for a walk
LG One: QuickFlex and StandByMe are two products that respond to a similar need for mobility within the home, to which they respond, however, in a different way.
One: QuickFlex is a display with a wheel stand, but still wired. Equipped with webcam and microphone, it can be used horizontally or vertically, and is designed for family video calls, for business tele-meetings or to follow a yoga or fitness class remotely.
On the other hand, LG StandByMe's approach to "domestic mobility" is different, a 27 "battery-powered TV mounted on a floor lamp like that of a lamp. You can move it from room to room to have "the greatest possible freedom of vision" they say from LG, and it is perfect for watching movies and series in streaming or, even in this case, for video conferences with colleagues remotely or with the family and friends. For both StandByMe and One: QuickFlex, at the moment there are still more precise specifications and above all prices and availability for the European market.
The intention of these two products is certainly to offer a better solution to always stay in touch with loved ones through video calling solutions and the "personal" approach to the device, which becomes an integral part of the personal home space. The "feeling", however, is another, and that is that they are perfect smart televisions to make the next lockdown less heavy.
The smart garden
In the various promotional shorts shown during the keynote, LG also included products already unveiled in December, ahead of CES. Among these is Tiuun (which in Korean means "to blossom"), an intelligent garden that makes it easy to grow vegetables indoors. The design is reminiscent of a wine cellar or a luxury hotel mini-bar, with two shelves that can each accommodate six germination units.
LG explains that with Tiuun vegetables and greens can be brought to maturity in a period ranging from one to two months, thanks to an internal system that regulates watering, temperature and light to optimize growth.
The theme of environmental sustainability is a subtext that accompanies all of LG's novelties, but is emphasized in particular through the presentation of the InstaView Door-in-door refrigerator. The appliance is equipped with a transparent door which shows the inside when double tapped. The idea, which LG has been proposing for years, is that this technology avoids the countless opening and closing of the fridge door, thus minimizing the energy consumption necessary to maintain the correct temperature. Considering the size and construction complexity of this luxury refrigerator, however, it would be interesting to understand if the CO2 savings obtained by opening the door less is greater than the expenditure on greenhouse gases necessary to produce it.
Although the news for televisions and displays are mainly evolutionary, we were a little surprised by the little space reserved by LG for its perhaps most important product line.
The main novelty shown almost en passant during the virtual presentation event is the new beautiful OLED evo Gallery Edition TV, that is the 97 "version of the new OLED Evo televisions for 2022. For example, it is not clear from the presentation that the range of televisions This year's OLED evo consists of many more models, both in the superior G series and in the C series. HDMI 2.1 inputs with "full" band, 48 Gbps.
The concepts for the future
In a third and final short film shown during the CES keynote, LG finally presented its vision for the future. In the video, the virtual artist Reah (presented by LG last year) tries his hand at rehearsing his next music album – which will actually be released in the real world. But we also see her struggling with gymnastic exercises inside LG Omnipod, a new "mobility solution that blurs the line between home and car". The Omnipod is an evolution of the LG connected car of 2020, and is a sort of mobile living room – obviously autonomous – where you can work, watch a movie, or just move with the help of a virtual instructor.
In the future, a little like Jetsons thought by LG, there is no shortage of robots: they are all different declinations of CLOi, the guiding robot that the Korean company has been developing and improving for some years now. In the video we see them in the role of concierge, waiter or even postman, in a "four-wheel drone" version designed for automated home deliveries. As with all concepts, these are extreme and somewhat science fiction use cases, designed more to explore the direction of AI innovation and applications, not a realistic scenario. Also because being surrounded by robots that do everything, minimizing human contact, doesn't seem so much a better life as an "aegyo" version of a sci-fi dystopia.

On Wednesday, August 29th Lil Pump was pulled over in Miami for a license plate on the Rolls-Royce he was driving actually belonged to a Mini Cooper.
When the cops went up to the window to ask the 18-year-old rapper for his drivers license, he allegedly said he didn't have one.
Cops booked him for driving without a valid license. He was held for $500 bond.
The rapper was previously arrested for firing a weapon inside his San Fernando Valley, CA home in February. He had claimed that three men were trying to break into his hope and he shot at them after they entered. When the officers arrived they discovered a bullet hole in the front door. He was booked and placed on house arrest later.

MONTEZUMA, Iowa -- The Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation is launching a new website dedicated entirely to the search for Mollie Tibbetts.
The 20-year-old was last seen on July 18th while going for a run in her hometown of Brooklyn. Since then authorities say they've investigated thousands of tips and conducted more than 500 interviews but haven't reported finding any trace of Mollie or clues to her whereabouts.
Authorities hope a new website, FindingMollie.Iowa.gov, will lead them to new information and new tips. The site features a map showing five areas of interest in the Poweshiek County area. Authorities want to speak to anyone who was in those areas between the hour of 5:00 and 10:00 pm on July 19th. Anonymous tips can also be left through the website. The reward for information leading to the safe return of Mollie Tibbetts is now up to $366,000.
Authorities stress they will take any information anyone in the public is willing to share. They say you shouldn't assume that any tips are already known or have been shared. " We encourage you to provide whatever information you may have," says Mitch Mortvedt with the Iowa DCI, "Please do not make your own judgement about relevance. Let us assess the relevance of your tip or information."
