Film-makers in Wales now benefit from our home-grown talent
Walesnline United Kingdom
As an art form it has passed its centenary and in the 21st century it is establishing itself as a multi-billion-pound driver of businesses as diverse as design fashion games and entertainment. Indeed it is a crucial driver of attitudes values and ideas. The changes that are happening to broadcasting and other forms of delivery of audio visual material increase the importance of multi-financed film. Film has an essential part to play in provoking creativity entrepreneurial activity and freedom of thought and imagination. It is therefore at the cutting edge culturally and commercially of any nation with ambition to play its part on the world stage. During our second year we saw development and consolidation in the face of a tightening economic situation. However led by chief executive Pauline Burt the Film Agency for Wales has worked hard to retain the level of support that we give to the film-making sector education and exhibition.

Senator Hillary RodhamClinton’s Farewell Address to the US Senate
Yonkers Tribune NY
And as I look back on my eight years of service I find myself reflecting on this tiny piece of Senate and American history. Ten years ago I asked the people of New York to take a chance on me to grant me their trust and their votes. And in the years since as our economy has grown more interconnected and the world more interdependent I have worked to keep faith with my fellow New Yorkers. I well remember when I first arrived in the Senate there were a few skeptics wondering what I would do and how I would do it and there are were stalwart supporters and guides like my great friend Senator Barbara Mikulski who kind of read me the rules of the road and set me on my way. No sooner had I figured out the way around the Senate actually had just moved into my office which all of our new colleagues will eventually be able to enjoy and had gone off on my first August recess ? I never when I was on the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue understood why the Senate went on recess all the time. But after the intensity of the workload and the extraordinary pressure of both the work here in Washington and the constituency work in our states I was thrilled and relieved to see that August recess roll around.

Broadband Investment Incentives — During Chairman Martin’s tenure the Commission removed regulatory obstacles that discouraged broadband infrastructure investment and slowed deployment. It classified Digital Subscriber Line ("DSL") Broadband over Power Lines ("BPL") and Wireless Broadband as "information services" not subject to legacy regulations such as tariffs and price controls. The Commission removed legacy regulations such as tariffs price controls and wholesale unbundling on new fiber investment to encourage carriers to invest in infrastructure in an environment free of economic regulation.

Indaba: A Music Collaboration Hub That Can Build Your Band For You
TechCrunch CA
The site has passed under our radar since launching in 2007 but has grown to over 125000 thousand musicians. Indaba is a music community for musicians looking to remotely collaborate with each other and to share the music they’ve composed. However while the site does make it easy to listen to what other members have created (songs can be played using an intuitive player than sits at the bottom of the screen) Indaba isn’t geared towards promoting your band and gaining fans (at least not yet). To actually create music users typically record their tracks using programs like GarageBand and then upload their tracks to an online session. In these sessions multiple users can use an integrated chat box to talk about tracks and can also use a Flash-based mixer to rearrange pieces from each musician.
