In the spirit of Canon's imaging supremacy, the EOS 600D adopts a generous 18-megapixel CMOS (APS-C-sized) sensor that empowers you to take all manner of scenes from vast, breathtaking landscapes to close-up wildlife shots in explicit detail. Having a massive 18-megapixel resolution also means that you can still turn your photos into gallery exhibits even after cropping them.
For exceptional recording and playback of images, the EOS 600D employs a crisp 3-inch wide Vari-Angle Clear View LCD monitor that contains over a million dots. The nifty Vari-Angle screen is also a welcome addition for curious shutterbugs looking to discover fresh framing perspectives, as the specially designed hinge allows it to be swivelled in almost any angle.
Fresh out of Canon's factory of innovation is the Scene Intelligent Auto mode, a fully automatic shooting mode that takes total advantage of the EOS Scene Detection System, an integrated system that analyzes every element of a scene including a person's face, and/or the image's brightness, movement, contrast, colour, distance and more. This information is then expertly evaluated by Scene Intelligent Auto to produce beautiful exposures that truly capture the essence of their surroundings.

Gerard Butler: Law Abiding Citizen In Germany
Gerard Butler attends the photocall for Law Abiding Citizen at the Ritz-Carlton on Monday (November 2) in Berlin, Germany.
The 39-year-old actor was spotted with Lindsay Lohan at a party to mark the opening of the Mazagan Beach Resort in Morocco on Saturday night. According to The Mirror, Gerard and Lindsay locked lips at the party.
"I'm fed up of all the drama," Lindsay said. "I just want to find someone who loves me back. I feel like I'm going to have a heart attack every time I think about the break-up. I came here to get away from it all. I'm ready to have fun now." After the party she said, "He's hot, he's mine! I've got no ring on my finger so I'm gonna have lots of fun. This is the most romantic place in the world after all."
10+ pictures inside of Gerard Butler as a Law Abiding Citizen in Germany…

The HBO series Silicon Valley has charmed us with its spot-on satire depicting the humorous everyday lives of developers trying to make it big in the heart of techland. The show's first episode starts out with Richard Hendrix struggling to get his startup Pied Piper off the ground, and in the meantime discovering that he's created a compression algorithm stunning enough to seduce the valley's bigwigs.
Fans of the hit series may be surprised to hear that Pied Piper is not just a fantasy. There's an actual honest to goodness real life company (no seriously!) that's been working on a compression that's going to change the game of mobile apps everywhere. In the Silicon Valley series, their name is Pied Piper. In real life? They go by the name Be-Bound (yup, that's us, nice to meet you!).
Let me introduce you to the Robin Hood of the Digital Divide!
Who is Be-Bound?
Be-Bound's entrance into the world of compression started when Albert Szulman founded the company in 2011. Be-Bound created a technology that was capable of compressing internet data onto the 2G network, and the next step was getting the word out to the world that this actually existed. The tech won 2nd prize at Le Web Summit in 2012, and the Palo Alto Research Center subsequently invited Be-Bound to be the first non-American startup to collaborate with PARC to further develop the technology (no biggie, just where the computer mouse was invented). The tech is now patented, and Be-Bound is prepared to make its technology available to Android developers worldwide to bridge the digital divide. Compression is a solution to the 4 Billion people living without connectivity.
Why do we call ourselves the Robin Hood of the Digital Divide?
Be-Bound wants to create opportunities through connectivity. There is a bastion of untapped talent in developing countries, simply going ignored due to connectivity issues. Not only are people not getting the educations they deserve, but job searches, health outcomes, and social networking will be totally transformed. Digital can be a tool for social, economic, and environmental transformation. We just have to open the doors, and that's exactly where Be-Bound comes in.
When App Annie did an analysis of top countries for app downloads and top countries for app revenue, look what happened:
This is a metaphor for global development in general. Developing countries are ready to take part in the international ecosystem, but so far, developing countries are the ones profiting most. Be-Bound calls itself the Robin Hood of the Digital Divide because not only does the company plan to bring connectivity to the next 4 Billion, but the company has devised a way to keep revenues largely within the countries where the apps are being developed, bringing a whole new meaning to local and relevant content.

Newest Projects Announced
January 30, 2018
The IDRC has recently begun a number of new projects:
CISL (funded by the the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Special Education Programs)
This project brings inclusive open education tools and knowledge from the FLOE Project to the newly-announced Center on Inclusive Software for Learning (CISL). Led by CAST, CISL will support the development of an open-source software suite, industry guidelines and supporting research to ensure K-12 students get engaging personalized learning through Open Education Resources.
Bodies in Translation (Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada)
Bodies in Translation is a research project that creates collaborative partnerships between artists, arts organizations, activists, scholars, and educators. With the Canadian disability arts community, the IDRC is co-designing the project's Knowledge Platform as well as new technologies to support inclusive artistic creation.
Platform Co-op
In collaboration with the Platform Co-op movement (https://platform.coop/), the goal of the project is to realize the full aspirations of Platform for Economic Inclusion. Together with Trebor Scholtz, the Platform Co-op Consortium and the New School, the IDRC will be developing a Platform Co-op Development Kit with the support of several foundations. The first implementation will be focused on care: childcare, attendant care and eldercare. "The work that makes all other work possible."
APCP (funded by Technology Innovation Program of the Rehabilitation Services Administration, U.S. Deptartment of Education)
In collaboration with the American Job Centers, community colleges, and high schools, the APCP project will help take the auto-personalization function of the Global Public Inclusive Infrastructure (GPII) from the proof-of-concept stage through to a high-quality, broadly-used open source implementation. Led by the TRACE Center at the University of Maryland, the IDRC is contributing to the project's overall software architecture, security and web personalization infrastructure, and individualized metrics-gathering tools.
The Social Justice Repair Kit (with funding from the Oak Foundation) - http://sojustrepairit.org
The goal of this project is to
- help youth movements and social justice initiatives to become welcoming environments for youth with learning differences
- benefit from the advantages of inclusive design.
BIG IDeA (An Enabling Change Project with the Government of Ontario) – www.bigidea.one
BIG IDeA (Business Innovation Guide for Inclusion Design and Accessibility) brings together businesses, customers with lived experience of disability and designers to collaboratively advance accessibility innovation in Ontario and create a culture of accessibility and inclusion. We are:

Latest News
Oak Foundation: Social Justice Repair Kit
February 3, 2017
We are excited to announce that the IDRC has received a grant from the Oak Foundation's Learning Differences Programme.
With funding from Oak, the IDRC is helping leaders of social justice-related activities by and for youth around the globe authentically engage diverse learners. Youth-led social justice movements can be empowering experiences that build connection to community, self-confidence, and a more positive mindset within marginalized populations. However, social justice initiatives are not always designed to accommodate diverse learners, who are over-represented within marginalized populations. If these initiatives are designed inclusively, with the appropriate scaffolding and accessibility features, they can create a positive pivot point in the lives of youth with learning differences.
The IDRC is not only supporting inclusive design in the online tools and software these initiatives utilize, but is also actively sharing resources, ideas and frameworks that help activists and leaders understand the needs and potential of different learners. Its toolkit will be a far-reaching, open-source combination of online resources, websites, web code, exemplars, hubs and tools that will remove barriers to participation to youth social movements for youth who learn differently.
To see the work as it is happening and to join the project, visit the Social Justice Repair Kit wiki page
Featured Projects
FLOE provides the resources needed to enable inclusive access to personally relevant, engaging learning opportunities for the full diversity of learners and content producers. Through the Open Education Resources community, FLOE makes tools available that transform, augment, and personalize the learning experience.
Prosperity4All develops the infrastructure and ecosystem that will allow for a ubiquitous auto-personalization of interfaces and materials, based on user needs and preferences, to grow (promote self-rewarding collaboration, reduce redundant development, lower costs, increase market reach and penetration internationally).
Cloud4all is an European Commission FP7 grant that will develop key parts of the Global Public Inclusive Infrastructure (GPII), building the knowledge base and algorithms needed and evaluating the ability of the concept to work across platforms, technologies and applications.
Preferences for Global Access
The goal of Preferences for Global Access is the design and development of web software to assist users with disabilities in creating online user profiles that specify their needs and preferences for how online information and services should be presented to them. The key to ensuring successful access to information and services is a personal statement expressing needs and preferences for specific contexts and goals. These "preference sets" automatically configure information and applications to meet individual. This team is developing tools and technologies to support users in specifying their individual needs and preferences in several application settings.

Tonight, master bartender Scott Richie will present "A History of Prohibition Cocktails" at the main branch of the Durham County Library. INDY readers voted Richie Best Bartender in Durham County in 2010, 2011 and 2012. Former co-owner of Whiskey, he currently bartends at Alley Twenty Six and hosts cocktail-making workshops at The Cookery.
Tonight, Richie will detail the rich cocktail history of the Al Capone-era, when cities teemed with hidden speakeasies that scrambled to make drinks on the sly with limited access to alcohol, paving the way for the ingenuity of the craft today. The free discussion takes place at 7 p.m. at the Main Library, 300 N. Roxboro St. More information is here.

Are alternative investment funds ready for the Directive's valuation framework? When the European Commission introduced the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive (AIFMD), it drafted one of the most ambitious and complex reform agendas ever introduced into the asset management industry.
Amongst many reforms, the Directive provides a detailed valuation framework, including requirements for detailed valuation policy and procedures to be applied consistently across all alternative investment funds (AIFs) and requirements for competence and independence of personnel performing valuation functions. There are a number of challenges Alternative Investment Fund Managers (AIFMs) face in order to satisfy the Directive on valuation. In this article we focus on some of the more pressing areas that will impact AIFMs.
AIFMs are required to ensure that the valuation function pertaining to the investments they manage on behalf of investors is carried out impartially and with skill, care and diligence, either by an independent external valuer or by the AIFM itself.
The requirement for impartiality brings challenges for AIFMs. For instance, for AIFMs undertaking valuations internally, the Directive requires that those responsible for valuation be independent from portfolio management teams, yet have equivalent knowledge, experience and level in management hierarchy as those in portfolio management in order to appropriately challenge key valuation matters.
For each AIF it manages, an AIFM must establish, maintain, implement and review Valuation Policies and Procedures (VP&Ps) that ensure sound, transparent, comprehensive and appropriately documented valuation processes. VP&Ps should be reviewed at least annually and, in any event, before an AIF engages in a new asset type. An AIF may not invest in a particular asset type before a valuation methodology for that asset type has been included in the VP&Ps.
AIFMD requires that the main features of all valuation models be documented in the VP&Ps. Before being applied, a model must be validated by a competent and experienced person who has not been involved in building the model and be approved by senior AIFM management. This presents potential challenges for AIFMs, particularly when investing in more illiquid assets where bespoke and complex models are developed that evolve over time.
Do we have sufficient qualified individuals that are separate to portfolio management in order to deliver impartial valuations?Do we have sufficient governance to support the delivery of objective valuations?
AIFMs that have not already conducted an in-depth AIFM impact and readiness assessment should do so without delay. The timelines to compliance are increasingly short and by undertaking such an assessment, AIFMs can get a better sense of the implications and the scope of the work that needs to be done in order to not only comply with the Directive, but to maintain long-term profitability under these new rules.

Given the recent state of the global economy, it speaks wonders about how highly regarded the Italian car manufacturer is right across the world.
Macclesfield, Cheshire (PRWEB UK) 22 February 2013
A recent survey by Brand Finance Global 500 has revealed that the Italian performance car manufacturer Ferrari is the world's most powerful brand.
Staying true to its famous image of luxury combined with performance, Ferrari reached the desired top spot in impeccable style by beating every other car manufacturer and other top worldwide companies on the shortlist.
That very list included famous household brands such as Google and Coca-Cola, all of which Ferrari beat across the finishing line.
While Ferrari wasn't tipped to win, it has proven that Ferrari's combination of its fierce image, brand loyalty and pricing structure is working for them. This was backed up even more recently as the Italian giants' financial results revealed that despite their hefty price tag to most, they enjoyed increased car sales and profits in 2012.
Car Loan 4U Co-Director Ryan Dignan comments:
"Ferrari has been around since 1929 and has produced some stunning cars in that time, not to mention their success on the racing track as well. With their instantly recognisable yellow badge and bright red colour, I can see why their brand has now finally been confirmed as the world's strongest ahead of the other major players.
"I think that it's an incredible achievement for a luxury-performance car manufacturer such as Ferrari to be pushing the boundaries of their sales expectations too. Given the recent state of the global economy, it speaks wonders about how highly regarded the Italian car manufacturer is right across the world."
Motorists looking to get their hands on a new or used Ferrari may want to consider their car finance options and as leading car finance providers, Car Loan 4U can help provide expert advice.

This is my first winter in New York and while I was bracing myself for glacial temperatures sometime soon after I moved here in November, it has proved to be perfectly balmy and unseasonably warm for the past few months.
But, it is starting to get seriously cold here and I've had to figure out how to stay warm through some trial and error.
Layering is key. The subway will be the death of you if you can't shed a few layers, or at least shed your hat, scarf and gloves. I usually have at least a sweater and a long sleeve shirt on under my coat, but sometimes you may need to bulk up even more.
Gloves: Get gloves. Get big gloves. Get gloves that you feel slightly silly wearing because maybe you're going to have to spark a cigarette or check your phone. Do not be led astray by the smart phone gloves, do not opt for the cute knit gloves, go straight for the waterproof exterior – lined interior ones that have a cold rating (often the good ones will have a tag that shows the weather they're meant for) of cold to icy. The cigarette can wait – you'll thank me later.
Coats: I personally have an aversion to the "puffer jackets" that are ubiquitous here, but to be honest they're probably your best bet. I have a friend who has an ankle length one and she just spent the weekend in Iowa where the high was -2 degrees fahrenheit and she was perfectly snuggly. If you don't opt for the puffer (I didn't), you still probably want to get a long coat, at least thigh-knee length. The reason? While you're probably going to have a sweater or two under your coat, your legs are only going to have one layer of cloth between them and the freezing cold, and you want to protect them. A long coat will do this, and you will be grateful. Coats with hoods are also great. Basically the more of your body you can cover the better. (You can also go hard core and wear long johns under your jeans, I used to do this sometimes when I lived in Asheville, and I may have to break them out soon.)
Hats/Scarves: Even if you have a hood on your coat you're probably going to want a hat. There are a lot of cute hats out there to be had, but at a certain point even the best of us have to abandon fashion for practicality, and thick knit hats and ear flaps and some things to look for. Big scarves are great, but make sure you can tuck them into your coat – the wind here gets so strong that it will fly away/whip up and totally cover your face. You do not want this to happen in the middle of an intersection.
Shoes: Get yourself some waterproof shoes, preferably with ankle coverage and excellent traction. Being the person to totally wipe out on the sidewalk is not ideal.
So remember: Cover up, layer up, and watch where you're walking. You should be fine.

Fishing icons at the pond next to Lumbridge Crater have been removed.
The model for the pharaoh mask cosmetic helmet has been fixed.
The Contact! map marker has been moved.
A tile that was missing blocking in the Sophanem Slayer dungeon has been fixed.
Missing blocking has been added to the pillars and gates southeast of the Menaphos lodestone.
A buff icon has been added, which displays when you are receiving the 5% XP boost in the city of Menaphos and the Sophanem Slayer Dungeon.
Your favourited faction in Menaphos is now reflected in the small overlay interface.
The Map icon for Contact! quest has been fixed.
Water icon visible again on minimap for Imperial District.
Skills, D&Ds & Minigames
Mutator icons and their slots have been center-aligned.
A typo in Raids reward shop has been fixed.
The Player-Owned Ports ship name creator had 'Hunter' listed twice in the People/Professions category. One of them has been changed to 'Hunger' and moved to Properties/Attributes category. There's a possibility that some players that had the name 'Hunter' as the second name on the ship will now have the ship named 'Hunger'. You will need to manually change the name to 'Hunter'.
The Runecrafting Skills tab now correctly sorts A-Z.
Icefiends on Ice Mountain now drop souls that can be collected by Ushabti Jars.
Players can no longer get stuck when adding creatures to their Slayer dungeon.
You can now add both the ring of slaying or ferocious ring to the corrupted slayer helmet.
The Quick Chat option for the total experience between Slayer levels now accounts for levels above 99.
Raptor lamps now cap at level 99 Slayer values, instead of awarding level 1 experience if you were level 100 or higher.
The Slayer Codex no longer crashes when viewing certain monster entries.
An issue that caused players to gain loot in the Sophanem Slayer Dungeon while Scrimshaw of Corruption or Sacrifice was active has now been fixed.
Slayer level 120 now correctly counts as a 99 towards re-tuning a second skilling portal in the Max Guild garden.
Players are more likely receive Keys to the Crossing both on and off slayer task.
A buff icon has now been added to the Shifting Tombs that tracks the following:
Stacks of charge to use.

Rinkevics: NATO soldiers in Latvia are here for a long time
Different analytical research centres have noticed that Russia has launched a wide campaign aimed against NATO prior to the upcoming summit in Warsaw. At the same time, there are multiple secret military operations in progress. American and Scandinavian countries have noticed them, as reported by Nekā personīga programme of TV3.
«USA is surrounding Russia and preparing for war», «Military conflict between the West and Russia is unavoidable», «American militarists dictate orders to Europe», «Americans have created secret weapons to control human minds from a distance» – these and many other ideas worthy of science-fiction novels have been cooked up by Russian media. East StratCom Task Force experts have provided their conclusion in results of their studies of those ideas and reports. European and NATO researchers have concluded that as the Warsaw summit draws closer and closer, the volume of disinformation about an alleged Western aggression against Russia grows by the day.
«Of course, Warsaw summit is one of the targets for Russia's propaganda machine. It is clear, and I believe the volume of this information will grow. We will see a number of different strategies employed by Russia to blacken this event,» – comments NATO Strategic Communications Centre of Excellence Director Janis Sarts.
«Prior to events like the Warsaw summit and decisions that will likely be made during this event, Russia is interested in influencing the opinion of the population in NATO member states and its own territory. With that, we can expect sharp reactions and increase of propaganda campaigns before and after the summit,» – notes Defence Ministry's state secretary Janis Garisons.
Sweden and Finland are also subjected to a massive propaganda campaign coming from Russia. Swedish Security Police SAPO has learned that Russian intelligence services continue actively spying on military and civil objects. Perhaps a coincidence, but there were multiple incidents prior to 25 May vote of the Swedish parliament to allow NATO to use Swedish army's bases and ports. Hackers attacked websites of seven largest newspapers in Sweden. On 19 May, the entire Swedish air traffic control system was paralysed supposedly due to a technical failure. Three major mobile broadcast towers suddenly went dark not far from Russia's border in Sweden.
American military officials have also noticed increase activity of Russian ships and submarines near important communication lines located on ocean depths. With reference to an anonymous source, The New York Times writes that Russia's recently unveiled Yantar ship, built supposedly for research purposes, has been noticed near Guantanamo Bay area, specifically near the area where multiple vital underwater communication lines are located. Russian media report that a second such ship will be unveiled in Kaliningrad this week.
«Any form of activity – presence of submarines near cable lines or Russian navy ships that appear close to our territorial waters – should be considered serious. There is enough justification to respond to such actions by looking at them from any angle – be it military or non-military,» – says Foreign Affairs Minister Edgars Rinkevics.
NATO STRATFOR researchers have analysed Russia's increased interest towards communications infrastructure. Researchers mentioned Russia's actions in Crimea, where the army has taken over control over telecommunications and internet communications. According to unofficial reports, American and NATO military units that frequently visit Baltic States also often experience Russia's attempts to jam communications. In an interview to Nekā Personīga, Glenn Howards, President of Jamestown Foundation described Russia's behavior in short way – it wishes to create an impression about its military capabilities and intimidate residents in Baltic States.
«I believe every day it is nothing less than intimidation. It is what Putin employs in Baltic States. He wants us to think that if you are small, the West will not protect you. Russia, on the other hand, is right here. And it has a very strong military force. They are trying to show that their values differ from your values, because Baltic States employ European values. Russia employs very different values – Asian. Like Mongols – we will destroy you and toss you into the sea,» – comments Howards.
Russia's invasion in Ukraine – that was the reason why NATO decided at the last summit in Wales to station 120 NATO troops in Latvia. It is hoped that Warsaw summit will result in the deployment of 600 to 1,000 troops.
«It is important to resolve the matter on command – who makes decisions in critical situations. We are interested in making the chain of command as short as possible. If a situation arises that one of the NATO member states comes under attack, decisions will have to be made very quickly. And, of course, it is very important to assess all possible threats, including hybrid war threats,» – explains State President Raimonds Vejonis.
«It is nothing that Russia is trying to declare that everything NATO is trying to do is escalate the situation instead of admitting what it has demonstrated so far – the forces they have amassed in the Baltic region and military exercises they have carried out in the past several years. They either forget to mention or merely say that it is a proportional response. Unfortunately, their response only serves to escalate the situation,» – believes Sarts.
«What is most important is making a clear political decision that NATO forces will be staying here for a long time. They will remain here for as long as we have a neighbour Russia is now,» – said Rinkevics.
The programme reports that Latvia's army expects to receive air defence radars from USA on Friday. Latvia will receive the first of three medium and short range radars next week.

Singer Jennifer Lopez's trip to Argentina was marred after a thief stole from her production team, according to reports.
Police have launched an investigation after a crook allegedly struck backstage at the G.E.B.A. Stadium in Buenos Aires on Thursday (21Jun12), making off with personal items belonging to Lopez's entourage.
A computer, a camera and a bag containing a passport belonging to a member of Lopez's production personnel were among the possessions taken, but a representative for the singer tells Fox News Latino that "items stolen last night at the venue were not Jennifer's".
The spokesperson went on to blame the incident on a "lack of security by the promoter and venue".
It's the second bout of bad luck Lopez has had on her Dance Again World Tour this week (ends24Jun12) - she visited a hospital for an X-ray after pulling a muscle in her back.

1. You arrive with no weapons. Look right to spot this cache including a pistol, a shotgun, bullets, shells, medkits and armor. This level is largely about finding stuff (but there is no flashlight). Also note the body of a scientist to the left of these supplies.
2. You have unlimited stamina and the enemies in Hell have a slightly different appearance. After retrieving the supplies, witness the body float up and away...into oblivion.
3. The gargoyles on either side of the stairs snap to attention and a blue shaft of light appears ahead. Step into the light.
4. You are lifted high above, surrounded by a cage then dropped to a new location.
5. More shells can be found on this glyph.
6. Three Imps are here. Wait for one to throw a fireball at you, shift to the side to avoid being hit then lunge at the Imp and fire with your shotgun.
7. Armor shards can be found on this outer ledge.
8. The wall stones rearrange themselves into a bridge. Carefully make your way across. There are more shells just inside the doorway ahead.
9. A Hell Knight appears as you enter this corridor. And you don't have the BFG this time.
10. You need to box around his jabs and throws, getting up close with your shotgun. A couple of headshots will bring him down.
11. Ooh, that's gonna leave a mark. Two Cherubs are on the left, protecting shells and armor.
12. Another Cherub plus this Imp are to the right, guarding a medkit and shells.
13. Once the Hell Knight is defeated this opening appears. Grab the chainsaw and medkit to the right before continuing ahead.
14. The wall opening closes behind you. Head left to find 3 ammo belts, 2 medkits and a chaingun.
15. Head right and two Imps spawn as the wall ahead slides back.
16. Lost souls attack. Stay by the door and pop them as they come through.
17. This opening has appeared in the center area. Pass through.
18. Dark spirits can be seen floating upward. Lost souls attack as you approach the two medkits on the right.
19. Continue battling lost souls, carefully stepping across the floating stones to the archway on the left, where you'll find a medkit to the left.
20. As you pass beneath this gate it closes behind you.
21. Ready your chaingun to defeat this Hell Knight. Keep your distance, dodge his splash-damage-heavy energy balls and aim for the head. Armor can be had from the Hell Knight's alcove on the left.
22. Farther down the corridor this Imp spawns on the left, surrounded by two medkits, an ammo belt, a chaingun and shells. Two other Imps attack, one ahead and one behind.
23. Two medkits and a head-crashing skeleton are at the corridor's dead end.
24. Backtrack to this position and find the gate has opened.
25. A series of cherubs attack aside this Mancubus. The Mancubus is slow so do your best to avoid him while clearing out the cherubs, then take him down last. Note the ammo belt seen here on the left.
26. Armor is on the right, cells and medkits are on the left. To the right of that is a plasma gun on a pentacle -- pick it up last. Once you grab the plasma gun, the floor drops.
27. Straight ahead you'll find the Berserker power up, making you faster and invincible - for a time.
28. Save ammo and use your chainsaw or Berserked fists to take out the Imps that spawn.
29. Two Hell Knights also attack. If you are quick enough you may be able to defeat one of them before the Berserker wears off.
30. Once the area is secure you can search for supplies. Here you'll find a medkit, shells, an ammo belt, cells and rockets.
31. Pick up the armor shards then follow the glyphs ahead.
32. The glyphs lead to this cache of medkits, cells, an armor vest, rockets - and the rocket launcher. Simon Garlick's PDA contains some chilling background.
33. To the left is this door. Approach and it slides open.
34. Approach the center pentacle and a massive obelisk thrusts downward. Three Mancubi spawn, one on the right followed by two on the left. Defeat them then dodge the obelisk to continue straight ahead.
35. Defeat a series of lost souls as you press ahead.
36. Defeat this Imp as you ascend the stairs.
37. Find this cache of supplies including cells, rockets, an ammo belt and a medkit.
38. Battle this Imp then another as you ascend the stairs in the background.
39. Imps and lost souls await through this door. An Imp is hiding in an alcove to the left.
40. Battle lost souls as you ascend the stairs then find supplies on the left once you reach the top, including a medkit, ammo belt and armor.
41. This horde of zombies attacks as you take the supplies. Continue through the door ahead.
42. Turn right and spot this Hell Knight. Note the two medkits on the left. Continue farther left to another door and be greeted by another Hell Knight and more Imps.
43. Keep left to find this medkit and armor. Proceed toward the the supplies just visible in the background.
44. Defeat an Imp and another Hell Knight. These supplies include medkits, cells, an ammo belt, a BFG cell, and most importantly, the BFG itself seen here on the left. It is tucked behind a rock so be sure not to miss it.
45. Upon grabbing the supplies a flock of lost souls and another Hell Knight spawns. Good thing you've got the BFG.
46. Be sure to conserve some of your BFG ammo for the upcoming boss battle. Here I use the plasma gun against the Hell Knight that attacks down this left corridor.
47. Advance down the corridor, defeating cherubs and lost souls.
48. Grab this armor then ascend the stairs.
49. This should be an easy fight if you are patient. Take short pot shots at the Mancubus then hide behind the central pillar. Grab the supplies on the right then approach the door on the left.
50. Note the medkit on the right. A Mancubus is directly behind the door. Defeat him then cherubs and another Mancubus attack. An ammo belt and a medkit are to the immediate left inside the door.
51. This Hell Knight is lurking on the left. Backtrack and dodge his blue energy balls to avoid their huge splash damage.
52. Climb the stairs and Betruger taunts you as you approach this door.
53. Grab the supplies on the right, including rockets, armor, medkits, cells and an ammo belt. Reload all of your weapons before entering the blue shaft on the left. And here's a tip from Marcelio: "Before going into the blue shaft walk around it but stay inside the circular area (so you are close to the statues). On the screenshot 53 you see small a red light hanging, that's where you are headed. In the room behind it find plasma and another BFG."
54. A brief cutscene plays. You first witness the soul cube plead, "Save us."
55. Then you see the level's boss - the Guardian.
56. The Guardian is flanked by three seekers. The Soul Cube advises, "Destroy his seekers, and the Guardian becomes vulnerable."
57. When the seekers are bunched up as seen here, your rocket launcher's splash damage can take out multiple seekers at once. Here I have fallen two with one shot.
58. When there are no seekers remaining, the Guardian stops to summon more. While he does this a blue orb appears over his head.
59. Pummel the blue orb with your heaviest weaponry before it vanishes.
60. Look for supplies such as these medkits as you strive to keep the terrain between the Guardian and yourself.
61. A boss bar would have been nice to let you know how much of the Guardian's health remains. Rest assured, he does come down before too long.
62. Now victorious, approach the soul cube to make it yours.
63. The upside-down eyes of the soul cube are way creepy. Search the area for supplies, then enter the blue light.
64. Return to the level's origin ahead.
65. Lastly, activate the teleporter to load the next level.

Building on the success of the hit ITV drama, the stunning model was painstakingly crafted from thousands of the children's plastic bricks by an American fan.
The Earl and Countess of Grantham, Bates the valet, Branson the chauffeur, Matthew, Carson the butler, Lady Mary, Lady Sybil and the Dowager are all represented in this unique Lego set.
It is based on ground and aerial photos of the real Highclere Castle in Berkshire, where Downton is filmed, and old floor plans of the building found online.
The figures were designed with the aid of photo galleries of the cast and then parts from other Lego sets were matched to the drama's lavish period costumes.
The Lego Downton Abbey is the brainchild of Eric Stevens, 23, from Rochester, New York. He built it as a Christmas present for his girlfriend. "I looked to see if anyone had created Downton Abbey Lego whilst watching last year. I couldn't find any other ones, so I decided to build it myself as a gift for my girlfriend, who also loves the show," he said.
"The design took about 15 hours, and about four hours to actually put it together. I think the project really captures the essence of Highclere, Downton and the brilliant period characters.
"All the characters are Lego-designed parts, rather than custom-printed pieces. The apron, for Lady Sybil's nurse outfit, I made myself."
