These include using scroll titles, 16th century costumes and props, and an old English font for the titles. It also references techniques used in other films like Gladiator and Troy. While most of the opening sequence succeeded in showing continuity, some elements like a fluorescent belt did not. The student believes the editing and titles were done well but the acting did not meet Hollywood standards.

Tablet Friendly Web Design - Best Practices for Financial ServicesCorporate Insight
Corporate Insight has kept a close eye on mobile developments in the financial services industry. Since the iPad’s introduction, more than 30 firms we track have added tablet-optimized apps. However, that still leaves dozens of firms without a dedicated app, and even those that have one likely see significant traffic to their main websites via tablet browsers. A poor experience there can alienate current as well as prospective clients. All firms should be keeping tablet-friendly design principles in mind when making changes to their websites.
But what specifically are those principles? We decided to look at the industry today and see what positive examples we could find and share. This study looks at recent updates to four firms’ public websites with features suited for tablet use – although some shortcomings may remain. We chose the four firms at right for a cross-industry perspective, covering the different financial services sectors Corporate Insight tracks – bank and card, brokerage, insurance and asset management.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

3. Choosing the right outsourcing location is a task worth
taking the time to consider seriously.
Countries Like India, Russia, South America, China, Poland,
Bulgaria and other Eastern block countries are nowadays
considered unsafe or rather high-risk outsourcing
destinations.
This is mainly due to the distance which allows you little
control. You should seek a company that
• you can visit as often as you want or need
• won’t be too expensive with regards to travel costs
Both these points will save you money, time & effort in the
long run.
Where do I outsource?
4. Another concern surrounding the countries mentioned
above is the lack of availability of English language speakers
The English language is always of major importance.
Supplying your English speaking market with non native
speakers is not an option.
Your clients will be irritated and misunderstanding will mean
• longer phone calls
• higher expenses
This is turn could lead to a loss of customers, a loss of
morale for your staff and of course, a loss of profit.
Speak to us for the quality and dedication you seek.
