Disney's Darkwing Duck review
Let's get dangerous!
I'm sure that everybody who claims to be a retro gamer knows about Capcom and Disney's relationship during the 8-bit and 16-bit days. If not, it's time to educate yourself. Go look up a bunch of games made by Capcom and Disney, and play the hell out of them! I'd recommend Duck Tales and Chip N Dale. But what about this game... Darkwing Duck, or DW for short! You can't go wrong with this one, right? I mean, the show was absolutely amazing! And you know what, so is the game! It's no Rescue Rangers or Duck Tales, but it's quite a well constructed Mega Man clone that needs a little more recognition.
Story: St Canard is under a crime wave by a criminal organization known as F.O.W.L, and their valued operative Steelbeak. They have six of DW's greatest foes to wreak havoc in St Canard, so it's up to DW to stop them all before the city ends up in chaos. It definitely sticks to the license material, involving its villains and even including DW's main man, Launchpad McQuack. Overall, while a basic plot, it captures a typical episode of the TV show, so no need to complain. The lack of Negaduck disappointed me, but that's about it.
Gameplay: If you've ever played Mega Man, this will feel instantly familiar to you. Just think sidescrolling through levels, jumping a fair bit, while blasting bad guys. Level designs are at least consistent with the quality that Mega Man manages to pull off, resulting in some nice platforming sections and some pretty cool tricks and traps through the game's seven levels.
During the levels, you're able to switch weapons. Instead of pausing and navigating the arrow up or down, you just hit select. But just so you know, you collect the weapons during the levels, and you can only have one at a time. From shockwave guns to stronger bullets to arrows, you have a bit of an arsenal going on, and in keeping with the license, they're all gas guns. But again, only one at a time. Just think; do you really need the arrow gun in the daytime downtown level? Well, it can lead to a couple of extra lives, and it can do a fair bit of damage, but what if your timing against the turtles is well off? Despite being powerful, it fires slowly, so... I don't know, it might lead to some lost lives or something... Might need something with a little extra speed... because those two lives aren't worth it if you're losing that many fighting turtles.
Although now that I think about it, the enemies are a bit unbalanced, requiring a fair amount of hits to actually finish them off, while DW only has four hit points throughout the entire game. Just a little problem I've always had, especially when I was a kid, but it's manageable - some other games really screw this one up, though.
Never fear, though, for the game is never too hard, or at least at the level Contra is. Even though you have only four hit points, health packs are never in short supply. Actually, if you're a competent gamer, you shouldn't really see the game over screen too many times, despite the enemies having just a little too many hit points. It's not something you play, expecting a huge challenge; it's something to play because it's fun!
There are a few notable differences between Darkwing Duck and Mega Man. DW can duck, allowing him to shoot lower. He can also block most ranged attacks with his cape if you press up. He can also hang onto ledges if he manages to jump up to the bottom of them, and trust me when I say - you'll have a fair few sequences where you have to just hang in there while shooting down enemies. These differences don't completely differentiate it from Mega Man, but it manages to at least help you a bit more on your quest here... this is stuff Mega Man should've had (possibly sans the guard, that'd just make things a little too easy).
His cape can be a blessing and a curse. It's a blessing in the sense that it defends most attacks, but a curse since you can't fire and block. Makes sense, but when you're in midair and you accidentally use your cape, you're kind of screwed if the enemy is rushing towards you in midair. Midair usage is always by accident, since you wouldn't want to really use it in midair in the first place...
At the end of each level, you have a boss. As you'd probably expect, they follow a formula, so study it a bit while avoiding attacks, then pounce and attack them. It's become a standard sort of thing for NES games because real AI wasn't a thought back then, and the boss battles themselves aren't bad. Actually, they're good battles. Nothing too easy at first, that's for sure. They're fairly fun to beat up, but overall, they're just like every Mega Man boss you would've fought over the years.
Controls: The scheme is an easy one. A for jump, and B for shoot. You can't really move and shoot at the same time, though.. nor can you block and shoot. As I've said, you can accidentally use the cape in midair, and this is a real control flaw, since you can't stop blocking until you've landed on the ground. I don't know why they didn't fix this here... but the Game Boy version has it fixed! I just don't understand it! But other than that, the controls are pretty competently done.
Graphics: The graphics are some of the better on the NES. There's a nice and fairly colorful background of the city (shadowy buildings with half of their lights on, the river and stars all over) on the San Frans- er- St. Canard Bridge (seriously, they look quite similar when you think about it). It's quite a beautiful sight for an NES game. I always thought that DW looked interesting - the purple shirt, brown hat and (like most Disney characters) no pants. His poses on the actual game looks pretty badass, like when he folds his cape to block and when he ducks. The game captures the essence that the cartoon had - a (mostly) dark setting with (mostly) light characters.
Audio: No matter how many times Mega Man is remade, the soundtracks always manage to keep my interest. They're the only reasons I even kept on playing through the Mega Man games; because they're always of high quality! Catchy AND awesome to listen to. Darkwing Duck, thankfully, keeps this up... mostly. There are some weak tunes throughout, but for the most part, the soundtrack just kicks ass! Sound effects are pretty pedestrian, though, but hey, the soundtrack can vouch for it.
Replay Value: What much is there to do in the game after finishing it? I mean it's fun to play through, but not multiple times in a short period of time! This is basically just to see if you can do better than before.
Overall: Darkwing Duck is a fairly good NES game, but by no means one of the best that Disney and Capcom had to offer. This is certainly no Duck Tales, or even as good as the first three Mega Man games. There are some hiccups in the licensing, and a bit of a control issue, but for the most part, Darkwing Duck is a fun game to go through. Nothing that will set the world on fire (that's reserved for Duck Tales and Goldeneye), but definitely glues your eyes to the TV for a little while.

The dark side of the ubiquitous skeletron, corrupted from within by it's own basic technology.
In the years before the advent of arcanotechnology and dimensional fatigue events, teratology was the study of abnormalities and biological deformations. In the wake of the second renaissance, it became the study of exomorphs, extradimensional entities, and most prominently, teratomorphs, more commonly and vulgarly known as kaiju.
The 228th Mountain Lion battalion faced a situation not entirely unlike General Custer some 500 years before. Like Custer's men, the 228th was almost completely destroyed, despite their laser cannons and drop ships.
The precursor to the skeletron, the PPAC Sanzang robot demonstrated the strengths of the fighting robot, and also, ultimately, it's weaknesses
The wastelands of the Cosmic era are a harsh environment, littered with wreckage, contaminated with chemical weapon residue, and radiation, and inhabited by mutants, monsters, and the strange creatures hemorrhaged from dimensional fatigue events. The denizens who are hardy enough to live in this terrain make due with their own sort of gear.
One of the rising interests in the Cosmic Era is the realm of robotic sports.
The octahedral space stations designed and built by the Atlantic Federation
Animals have parasites and diseases, so do plants, there are even bacteria that cann dissolve oil spills or plastic or what have you - why couldn't there be a disease living off magic - a magic item could be infected, losing power and speading the plague to other equipment it contacts, while a magic user would slowly lose his powers and contaminate all he works with or casts a spell at...

A very funny show! A great way to spend a Friday night on the town at 3rd Street Promenade!
Ever wanted to see all 37 of Shakespeare's plays in one night? Us neither. But now you have the chance to see all of them in a condensed form – performed by 3 actors in 97 minutes. This hilarious love note to Shakespeare is one of the most frequently performed plays in the world, and now Santa Monica Rep gives you it's version. Ridiculous wigs, terrible accents, fake blood (well, mostly fake) and a healthy dose of audience interaction fill the night with gut busting laughter.
Age Recommendation: For mature teens and above. Some adult language and situations.

DeFilipps will be presented 'Deputy of the Year' award on Thursday at Fair
Staff Reports Posted 27 July 2016
KNOWLESVILLE – An Orleans County deputy will be presented with the "Deputy of the Year" award on Thursday at the Orleans County 4-H Fair.
DeFilipps was named 2015 "Deputy of the Year" by the New York State Sheriff's Association. He will receive the award during a 6 p.m. presentation at the Orleans Hub stage at the Fairgrounds, 12690 Route 31.
Roald Spike, Yates County sheriff, is chairman of the New York State Sheriffs' Association Institute. He will present the award to DeFilipps.
DeFilipps was recognized for performing an act of valor and heroism, above the normal call of duty, the Sheriff's Association said.
It was 3 a.m. on March 21 when DeFilipps was shot twice following a high-speed chase with James Ellis of Wyoming County.
DeFilipps was the first police officer on scene when Ellis wrecked his vehicle in Clarendon on Route 31A. Police were pursuing Ellis after a 911 call when he threatened an ex-girlfriend in Shelby with a gun.
After the crash in Clarendon, Ellis fled to a nearby wooded area and opened fire on DeFilipps and other deputies and police to arrive on the scene. DeFilipps, despite getting hit twice by gunfire, shot Ellis, killing him and ending his threat.
Police feared Ellis could have shot more officers on the scene if DeFilipps hadn't been there. Ellis could have fled to a neighbor's house.
DeFilipps as wearing a bullet-proof vest which likely saved his life. After recovering from his wound to his stomach, he returned to the night shift for the Orleans County Sheriff's Department, where he has worked for more than 13 years.
Oreans County Sheriff Randy Bower urged the community to attend the celebration on Thursday for DeFilipps.

Miniature carnival built by Albion men makes debut at Orleans Fair
Photos by Tom Rivers Posted 26 July 2016
ALBION – The Hudson Magic Midway is making its local debut at the Orleans County 4-H Fair. The attraction is housed in a 40-foot-long semi-truck trailer. Inside is a collection of 40 miniature replicas of midway rides from the 1950s to the most recent innovations in amusement park rides.
Jay Pahura at right and his friends, brothers Charlie and Frank Zicari, have been working on the Midway for several years. It made its first fair appearance last August at the Erie County Fair.
The trailer has flags on top and panels that tell the history of the project. Hudson Magic Midway costs $2 per person to see inside or $1 each person in groups of at least 5. Hudson's Magic Midway is open the same time as the real amusement rides at the Fairgrounds, from 3 to 10 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday.
The inside is blacklight, giving a glow-in-the-dark feel. The rides are hand-built. They are illuminated and show a history of amusement park attractions, including Midway rides to popular concessions and games such as Skee Ball.
The rides are all fully operational on a small scale – but not too small. The Sky Wheel, for example, is nearly 5 feet tall at 56 inches.
The miniature carnival started in 1953, when the late Albion resident Harold Hudson started building miniature midway rides in the basement of his home on Caroline Street. The display eventually filled two garages from front to back and Hudson welcomed the community to see them.
Hudson used ordinary materials found around his house, plus his creative ingenuity to make the rides. He hand-built many of the rides just as they were being introduced by ride manufacturers to carnivals across the United States.
Charlie Zicari was a boy when he saw "Hudson's Exposition Shows." Zicari was hooked. He became friends with Hudson and started building rides and helping him with the set up. When Hudson died in 1989, he left his miniature carnival to Zicari.
The display inside the trailer includes a skyscape, giving the mini carnival a planetarium feel.
Zicari has built many of his own rides, including more recent additions to carnivals.
The Zicari brothers and Pahura set up the mini midway at the former Erie Canal Schoolhouse Bed & Breakfast in Albion a few years ago. That was the first time the public had seen the rides in many years.
The bed and breakfast has since closed. The Zicaris and Pahura worked on a home for the attraction: the long trailer that needs to be moved by a semi truck.
The Zicaris and Pahura have strengthened some of Hudson's creations to make them sturdy for trips to fairs and other festivals. The rides have been painted with five to six coats of a reflective paint to make them better illuminate in the black light.
DOT puts Parkway paving, canal bridge repairs in capital plan
By Tom Rivers, Editor Posted 26 July 2016
ALBION – A five-year capital by the State Department of Transportation includes repairs to the lift bridge on Main Street in Albion, $13 million to rehab six other canal bridges in Orleans County, and money to pave the Lake Ontario State Parkway.
Orleans County officials have been pressing the state to spend money to fix bridges and pave the Parkway. The DOT plan includes more than $14 million for Parkway work and nearly all of it is in Monroe County.
The Parkway paving includes $8.97 million to pave the parkway from Route 19 east to Payne Beach, and $5.2 million to pave the Parkway from Route 19 in Hamlin to Route 237 in Kendall. The Parkway paving projects are slated for 2017-18.
Some of the other projects in Orleans, identified in the capital plan, include:
• $430,000 in preventive maintenance for 8 bridges in Orleans County (2016-17)
• $3.13 million to pave Route 98 in Albion (2017-18)
• $13 million to rehab six bridges over the Erie Canal in Orleans County (2017-18)
• $1.63 million for Holley pavement preservation on Route 31 and 237 (2018-19)
• $7.8 million for lift bridge rehab on Route 98 in Albion and Route 19 in Brockport (2018-19)
• $1.35 million for bridge rehabilitation on Route 104 over Oak Orchard Creek (2019-20)
State Senator Rob Ortt (R-North Tonawanda) highlighted the list of projects. He said he was pleased to see several canal bridges in the five-year DOT capital program plan.
In addition to the bridge construction work, the state will install sensors on weight restricted canal lift bridges to monitor the structural integrity and to better assess appropriate corrective measures, Ortt said.
"For years, our local roads and bridges have been dangerously underfunded by the state," Ortt said. "For the first time in more than a decade, the State Legislature has achieved true parity in transportation funding between upstate and downstate – the DOT and the MTA – with $27.1 billion for each entity over a five-year period."
There are 16 lift bridges on the canal and seven of them are in Orleans County. There are more than a dozen other steel truss canal bridges in Orleans that are about a century old.
"This money is a good start to help fix the structural problems in our region," Ortt said. "The infrastructure improvements to the two canal lift bridges will contribute to economic growth while maintaining the safety of the individuals who use them, including our farmers and emergency personnel. We need reliable infrastructure to stimulate the economy, create jobs and protect future generations."

Brockport man sentenced to state prison for stealing copper in Clarendon
By Tom Rivers, Editor Posted 26 July 2016
ALBION – A Brockport man who admitted to stealing $3,533 worth of copper from a trailer on South Holley Road last August was sentenced to 1 to 3 years in state prison on Monday.

In other cases in County Court:
• A Lyndonville man was arraigned for third-degree criminal possession and criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree.

She violated her probation by allegedly trying to get contraband into the jail, the District Attorney's Office said.
• Jada Sorta, 20, of Sawyer Road in Kent was arraigned for second-degree burglary, fourth-degree grand larceny, petit larceny and criminal possession of a controlled substance in the fifth degree.

• Brandi Ralph, 32, of Yates Center Road in Lyndonville was arraigned on third-degree burglary and petit larceny. She allegedly entered a garage on April 18 and stole tools.
2 men accused of smuggling kilo of cocaine arraigned in county court
By Tom Rivers, Editor Posted 26 July 2016
ALBION – Two men accused of trying to smuggle cocaine from Texas were arraigned in Orleans County Court on Monday.
Daniel Guzman, 29, of Texas and Luis Alberto Sanchez-Garza, 31, of Mexico each are in jail on $500,000 bail. They were arrested on June 17 in the biggest cocaine seizure in Orleans County history.
Police seized 1 kilogram (2.2 pounds) of cocaine that was hidden in the engine compartment of a vehicle that was stopped on East Avenue in Albion. The arrests were made following an investigation into the sale and distribution of cocaine from Texas to Orleans County.
Both men face Class A-1 felony charges for criminal possession of a controlled substance in the first degree. The drug seized has a street value of about $150,000.
Guzman faces additional charges of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the second degree and criminal impersonation in the second degree for allegedly presenting a false Green Card to law enforcement, District Attorney Joe Cardone told Judge James Punch.
Guzman has "repeated out-of-state convictions," Punch said. Guzman, a resident of Houston, also is wanted on a warrant from Texas.
The two men have assigned counsel due to their indigent status. They are to next appear in court on Aug. 8.
2 admit to selling cocaine in Medina
By Tom Rivers, Editor Posted 26 July 2016
ALBION – Two people admitted to selling cocaine in the Medina in separate cases in Orleans County Court on Monday.
Reginald A. Kendrick, 40, pleaded guilty to criminal possession of a controlled substance in the fifth degree. He faces up to 2 ½ years in state prison when he is sentenced at 2 p.m. on Oct. 17.
Kendrick admitted in court he had cocaine on July 31, 2015, and sold it. Kendrick was living in Medina at 703 Church St. Apt. 2. He has been in the county jail since April when he was arraigned on multiple drug charges.
Joshua Lopez, 36, of Lockport also pleaded guilty to criminal possession of a controlled substance in the fifth degree.
Lopez admitted he sold cocaine at the McDonalds in Medina on April 27, 2015. Lopez is a second felony offender, which means the maximum sentence for the crime would normally be 4 years in state prison. As part of a plea deal on Monday, he will face a maximum of 3 years in prison when he is sentenced at 2 p.m. on Oct. 17.
In another case, an inmate in the Orleans Correctional Facility was sentenced to 3 to 6 years in prison for of promoting prison contraband in the first degree. Jesus Vega allegedly had a sharpened metal rod in the prison. He has four prior felonies.
Vega asked that he not have to pay a $325 court surcharge, but Judge James Punch said Vega, who isn't disabled, can earn money in the prison and pay the $325.
In another case, a Batavia man declined a plea deal and will go to trial beginning Oct. 26. Nicholas L. McKague, 24, faces charges of endangering the welfare of a child and course of sexual conduct against a child. The crimes allegedly occurred in Clarendon against a child 7 to 10 years old.

200 corrections officers try to highlight rise in violence, contraband at state prisons
Photos by Tom Rivers Posted 25 July 2016
ALBION – State Sen. Rob Ortt and State Assemblyman Steve Hawley meet with corrections officers this afternoon who lined Route 31 by the former Apollo Restaurant, just west of the Village of Albion.
About 200 corrections officers were part of the informational picket today from 2 to 4 p.m. The COs want to highlight a rise in violence inside prisons, staffing shortages, an increase in contraband and inmate weapons, and press the state for more technology, such as thermal imaging, to make prisons safer.
"We are here to show solidarity with you," Ortt corrections officers. "I appreciate what you do."
Mike Powers, president of the union (NYSCOPBA) that represents corrections officers, said the state has closed prisons, which has strained the capacity at other sites. Many inmates that should be in maximum-security facilities are in medium-security prisons, Powers said, and that has led to increased violence and contraband with more drugs and weapons being smuggled into prisons.
Powers and the union want more staffing and training for officers, a removal of double bunks which would increase safety for inmates and staff, and investment in more equipment and technology to help COs make prisons safer. Powers also said the state needs to fill positions faster when they are vacated with retirements.
A corrections officer holds a sign during the picket today. Another sign said, "Fighting For Our Lives."
The union for corrections officers said statewide since 2010 the number of assaults on staff by inmates has risen 55 percent, and inmate-on-inmate violence is up 60 percent.
This is the latest informational picket that NYSCOPBA has held in the past two months. Previous pickets were at Elmira, Attica, Livingston, Collins, Shawangunk, Greene and Coxsackie Correctional Facilities.
There are about 675 corrections officers that work at prisons in Albion, with 425 at the Albion Correctional Facility (for women) and 250 at the Orleans Correctional Facility, a medium-security prison for men.
State Assemblyman Steve Hawley speaks with corrections officers. Hawley said many state legislators from New York City do not support the COs or understand the working conditions. Hawley said some state legislators believe New York City residents are wrongly convicted and sent to prisons upstate to support the economy in the state's rural communities.
Hawley said he tries to bring a voice of reality in conversations with state legislators from downstate. He said he urges his colleagues in the Legislature to make the sites safer with more staff and less overcrowding of inmates.
Big turnout for golf tournament honoring Wounded Warriors
Photos by Tom Rivers Posted 25 July 2016
HOLLEY – Hickory Ridge Golf Course hosted its fifth annual "Honoring Heroes" Golf Tournament on Sunday. Cindy Diehl, co-owner of Hickory Ridge, welcomes a big crowd at dinner to the event, which raised money for the New York Warrior Alliance.
The first four golf tournaments events raised $57,000 to assist wounded American soldiers and their families.
The fund-raising totals have increased each year from $10,000 in 2012, $13,000 in 2013, $16,000 in 2014 to $18,000 last year. The total from yesterday isn't available.
Lyndonville native David Bellavia, an Iraq War veteran with the U.S. Army, was keynote speaker during Sunday's banquet at at golf tournament. Bellavia was awarded the Silver Star for his actions during the Second Battle of Fallujah. He wrote about his war experiences in House to House: An Epic Memoir of War.
Bellavia has been a leader in advocating for veterans from the Iraq and Afghanistan wars through Vets for Freedom.
Bellavia said he is proud of Orleans County and how the community rallies around veterans, whether at the Hickory Ridge golf tournament, or standing in bitter cold weather to welcome home a fallen soldier. He noted the county has a long record of sacrifice. Nearly 500 people from Orleans died in the Civil War. Holley had the highest per capita death rate for young men who died serving in the Vietnam War.
The county continues to have young men and women sign up to serve in the military, Bellavia said, calling them "the best of their generation."
Bellavia also praised the New York Warrior Alliance, the beneficiary of the golf tournament, for its work on behalf of injured vetetrans and their families. The VA is "overburdened," Bellavia said, and NY Warrior Alliance helps fill some of the gaps.
Amy Tausch, president of the NY Warrior Alliance, shares some of the group's outreach. NY Warrior Alliance started as a ministry at Northfield Church in Pittsford.
The all-volunteer alliance provides financial support and basic essentials for wounded warriors and their caregivers. Tausch and a group of volunteers each year take a mission trip to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Washington, D.C. and deliver supplies. Tausch noted that Carol Culhane of Albion is part of the annual trip and presents ornaments with her patriotic artwork to veterans.

Local man denies three theft chargesMarch 07,2013Local man denies
3 larceny charges
A Mount Holly man was jailed on $100,000 bail Wednesday for allegedly threatening violence while demanding money from three local businesses.
Todd E. Bussino Jr., 29, pleaded innocent in Rutland criminal court to three felony counts of larceny from a person.
Judge Theresa DiMauro set bail for Bussino, who was taken to the Rutland jail after the hearing.
He was arrested Monday by Vermont State Police, who charged him with robbing the Cumberland Farms convenience store on Main Street in Wallingford on Friday afternoon. Rutland City Police charged him with robbing the Walgreens pharmacy on Woodstock Avenue and the Burger King on North Main Street early Saturday.
No one was hurt in any of the incidents and no weapon was displayed, police said, though they said Bussino did threaten to shoot a clerk who followed him from Cumberland Farms.
Police said he was filmed by a security camera at Cumberland Farms and left his jacket at Burger King.
Police said Bussino admitted to the incidents and said he was trying to get money to buy crack cocaine.MORE IN This Just InPARIS You cant put a guard in every church and patrol every beach.

A Jewish Cambridge University student has been banned from its Union debating society after an encounter with Lauren Booth - the notorious presenter on Iranian Press TV and ardent pro-Palestinian campaigner.
Gabriel Latner, a second-year lawyer, joined her as a fellow proposer of the motion that Israel is a rogue state - which he subverted by tackling it from a pro-Israel point of view.
(Students who apply to speak in debates are randomly selected by the union organisers.)
Ed Miliband's Jewish intellectual heritage could not be more impeccable. His father, Ralph Miliband remains a colossus of the British left, who lies buried in Highgate cemetery within sight of Karl Marx himself.
His mother Marion Kozak, is a feminist thinker and human rights activist of considerable renown. Both parents were Polish Jews who came to Britain as refugees from fascism.
Jewish Apprentice contestant Alex Epstein has lived to fight another day - just.
Despite disagreements with Apollo team leader Paloma, the former King David pupil escaped being fired by Lord Sugar.
In a task which involved selling designer clothing to shoppers in Manchester's Trafford Centre, he was put in charge of choosing the location for a promotional area. He chose an area some distance from the shop, causing friction with the rest of his team.
Karren Brady told him: "Unfortunately it wasn't the best location."
Three EDL members charged with affray and public order offences during a "Tea Party" rabbi's speech at Speakers Corner have had their case sent to Crown Court.
Shortly after their demonstration on Sunday outside the Israeli Embassy in Kensington, EDL supporters made their way to Hyde Park where Rabbi Nachum Shifren, the so-called "surfing rabbi" from California, gave a short speech.
The rabbi had earlier called Muslims "dogs" and told the EDL "We will never surrender to the sword of Islam."
Controversial Polish right-wing politician Michal Kaminski has been invited to visit Britain to meet community leaders and talk to the Anglo-Jewish community.
Mr Kaminski has been invited to Mill Hill United Synagogue in north west London by its minister Rabbi Yitzchak Schochet, and is likely to visit at least one other Orthodox synagogue. It is also likely that he will meet members of the Charedi community, some of whom were invited to visit Jewish historical sites by the Polish Foreign Ministry last month.
William Hague is to sign a groundbreaking agreement cementing ties between the British and Israeli film industries.
The Foreign Secretary, who is in Israel for a two-day trip, is expected to sign the co-production deal tomorrow.
It will give Israeli film-makers the chance to benefit from the facilities and reputation of the British film industry and open up new channels for both countries' film industries.
Oxfam is to launch a new strategy to improve its image with Israel and British Jews, after concerns about pro-Palestinian bias within the organisation.
The charity has never actively publicised its work with Jewish Israelis. During Operation Cast Lead Oxfam released a statement saying Palestinians had "fewer rights than convicts".
EXCLUSIVE: Israeli Deputy Prime Minister Dan Meridor has cancelled an appearance at a London fundraising dinner over fears he could be arrested under universal jurisdiction legislation.
It is believed the Israeli Justice Ministry warned Mr Meridor that a warrant for his arrest may be issued if he entered Britain.
He was due to speak at the Bicom dinner tonight. He was a replacement for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who cancelled last week due to the delicate state of the peace negotiations.
Rabbi Tony Bayfield, the head of the Movement for Reform Judaism, is to step down six months earlier than expected at the beginning of January.
The leader of the movement since 1995, he had been due to retire at the end of June shortly before his 65th birthday, with executive director Rabbi Shoshana Boyd-Gelfand becoming chief executive - and the first female rabbi to be professional head of a British synagogue body.
But Rabbi Bayfield told members of the Reform council yesterday that the handover had gone so smoothly that he felt able to leave earlier.
It was another tense week of X Factor for Jewish hopeful Katie Waissel, as she had to sing for survival for a second time this series.
She failed to win over fans after her rendition of Ella Fitzgerald's Bewitched on Saturday night's Halloween themed show.
Her witch outfit, with large back-combed hair and white false eyelashes, was unpopular. Dannii Minogue told her: "The makeup was a little bit scary tonight.
"It was distracting from your singing."

bookshelves: children-teen, contemporary
This was a really cute kids' story. It was a lot of fun to read. The thing that I liked the most, though, was the format. That's the English teacher in me coming through. I had never seen a book written in this type of format. It's the kids all giving statements to the police, so the story is told from about 7 different points of view to get the story across. Some of the little clips are only a few lines long from each character and some are several pages from the same character. I love the format and will have to use it next time I teach a story.
