LIMA (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Rights experts and civil society groups issued an open letter on Wednesday to ministers attending U.N. climate talks in Lima, urging governments to enshrine "human rights for all" in the new global climate deal due to be agreed at the end of 2015.
At the same time, thousands of Peruvians and indigenous people from the Andean and Amazon regions marched shoulder to shoulder with climate activists from around the world on the traffic-choked streets of Lima.
They called for urgent action to tackle climate change and the environmental problems affecting communities dependent on natural resources for their survival.
Danitza, whose Quechua name Pilpintu means butterfly, from Peru's south-central Andean region of Ayacucho, said people must take care of the earth, not least for the benefit of their children.
"For the next generations, we should look after our water, the earth, our food," she said, carrying her baby dressed in traditional clothes.
Many at the march, around 15,000-strong according to organizers, shouted and waved banners demanding clean water, 100 percent renewable energy, and protection of their rights threatened by extractive mining and major development projects, such as hydro-electric dams.
More than 200 groups working on environment, development and human rights that signed a letter to ministers, together with 76 rights experts, warned that "climate change and certain actions being taken to address climate change interfere with the enjoyment of human rights protected under international law".
Maria Jose Veramandi, senior attorney with the Interamerican Association for Environmental Defense (AIDA), pointed to the U.N.'s Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) as "just one example of where things can go wrong".
Projects carried out as part of the CDM, a carbon trading mechanism that supports clean energy projects, have been accused of a variety of human rights violations since the mechanism started work, she said.
She cited the construction of the Santa Rita dam in Guatemala, saying it had led to violence and repression against indigenous communities, including the death of two children.
The executive board of the Clean Development Mechanism
has since agreed on new guidelines to try to ensure local people have more say in CDM projects.
Out on the streets of Lima, civil servant Celso Sempertegui held one edge of a 100 meter-long green silk banner sporting messages and pictures in opposition to Newmont Mining Corp's proposed $5 billion Conga mine in Peru's gold-rich Cajamarca region - which is now on hold - as well as a planned Chadin hydropower plant.
People in the region are worried these projects will harm their lakes and take away their water, the municipal worker said.
Others on the march, like Fazal Issa from Tanzania, were more concerned with the direct impacts of rising temperatures and extreme weather.
"We have the highest mountain peak in Africa, for example, and we have lost 80 percent of the ice caps there," said Issa.
"We are here to raise our voices and say our demands to the negotiators inside the climate talks. We want an ambitious, legally binding and equitable (climate) deal," said Issa, a member of the Pan African Climate Justice Alliance.
John Knox, a U.N.-affiliated independent expert on human rights and the environment, said climate change is already interfering "with an immense range of human rights, from housing in the Maldives, to water in Tuvalu to food in the Sahel region of Africa, and... the problems of course will only get worse."
A human rights approach to solving these problems can ensure governments take care of the neediest people in their countries, he added.
He and other experts are calling for language in the climate pact due to be agreed in Paris in a year's time that commits governments to "respect, protect, promote, and fulfill human rights for all" across their climate change-related actions.
So far, the draft text for key elements of the new deal merely stresses that actions to address climate change should respect human rights and the rights of indigenous peoples.
But civil society groups want stronger language on human rights to be cemented in the parts of the agreement that governments have to put into practice.
They also urged negotiators to launch a new U.N. work program in Lima to ensure that human rights are integrated into all aspects of climate actions.
"The application of a human rights framework can support building trust and the development of a very effective (climate) deal," Kit Vaughan, director of climate change at CARE International, told journalists.
Moutari Abdoul Madjid, who works on water projects in the Zinder region of Niger, said on the march that the most important thing for the communities he works with is funding to help them adapt to growing water stress.
"There is really a lack of resources - communities are dying," he said.
Yolanda Kakabadse, WWF's international president and former Ecuadorian environment minister, said the message from the demonstration was that governments should be more responsible on climate change.
"We can't delay action anymore - it's been too slow," she said. "We have to lay the table here in Lima... for Paris."

Best laid plans are always subject to change. Our 1x a week Spanish teacher couldn't make it for her usual 30 minute teaching time. My class was not only restless and wanting to practice Spanish, they knew they were about 30 minutes away from lunch time. Solution: Take the entire class into the gym for a mix of Spanish, sign language, and wellness (exercise). Our district is big on children getting wellness every day, and I've always liked to mix up spurts of exercise throughout my first graders' day. So, when the Spanish teacher couldn't make it, we spread out various colors of cones in the gym and made up Spanish and sign language running games. Sometimes I would call out a color in Spanish and the kids would either run to or away from that color cone. Other times I would simply do the color sign and they would run. This spur-of-the-moment lesson, which stimulates various parts of their brains and keeps their bodies active, demonstrates why I love teaching first grade. We can turn a change of schedule into a multifaceted and fun lesson. The sooner kids are able to adapt and accept their constantly changing surroundings, the better. It is a skill they will use and develop throughout their lives.

Change of Plans= Exercise and Spanish!

U. S. Customs and Border Protection Officers Seize Pellets of Heroin in Bottles of Mamajuana
JAMAICA, N.Y. — An arriving passenger was planning to enjoy a very interesting cocktail, but U. S. Customs and Border Protection officers at John F. Kennedy International Airport shut down her speakeasy before it ever opened.
On January 6, Ms. Rosa Almonte De Ortega arrived on a flight from Santiago, Dominican Republic and presented one checked-in suitcase for examination. During the examination CBP officers discovered a bottle of 'mamajuana' that felt unusually heavy. Ms. De Ortega was escorted to a private search room where CBP officers opened the bottle, and discovered pellets inside. The pellets tested positive for heroin.
De Ortega, a citizen of the Dominican Republic, was arrested for the importation of a controlled substance and was turned over to the New York Police Department. In total, 32 pellets containing heroin were extracted from the bottle of 'mamjuana' with an approximate weight of 1 lb. and an estimated street value of $27,000.
"Heroin is a dangerous narcotic, and CBP does its part in keeping these drugs off the streets." said Robert E. Perez, Director of CBP's New York Field Operations. "Our officers are determined to protect the American people from these illicit substances."
Ms. De Ortega faces state narcotics smuggling charges and will be prosecuted by the Queens District Attorney's Office.
All defendants are considered innocent unless and until proven guilty.
Mama Juana or mamajuana is a drink from the Dominican Republic that is concocted by allowing rum, red wine, and honey to soak in a bottle with tree bark and herbs. The taste is similar to port wine and the color is a deep red.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection is the unified border agency within the Department of Homeland Security charged with the management, control and protection of our nation's borders at and between the official ports of entry. CBP is charged with keeping terrorists and terrorist weapons out of the country while enforcing hundreds of U.S. laws.

By James DeRuvo (doddleNEWS)
Shooting with a GoPro can give you some really great shots, no doubt. But if you really want to amp up your visuals, you may want to consider getting some filters to cut down on the glare and bring out the colors you see. So when Polar Pro put out their GoPro Edition Filter Six Pack, I had to give it a try.
Back in the day, I loved filters, because in the realm of the dark room, the only way you could tweak your image was to add a filter to it before hand and do the change in camera. Then the digital revolution came along and we all started to manage and edit out images through Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom. That's when I got into the lazy habit of thinking I can fix anything digitally in post.
I still believe that to a point, especially with graduated color filters, but in the end, I rather lost that organic feel that a filter can give you, especially when you're using neutral density and polarizer filters to cut back on the glare. In the end, I came to realize that ND filters are your friends and everyone should have a set, especially for their GoPros.
The three pack is actually a six pack, which I scratch my head at, but this pack is filled with some great filtering options:
- PL 1 – a Polarizer Filter
- ND8 – a 3-Stop Neutral Density Filter
- ND16 – a 4 stop ND filter
- ND32 – a 5 stop ND filter
- ND8/PL – a 3-stop ND filter and polarizer
- ND16/PL – a 4-stop ND filter and polarizer
Looking at the package, my first thought is … geez, Polar Pro needed to really give me a case to organize this set with, because in addition to the six filters, Polar Pro tossed in six cheap little protective bags to put them in. I appreciate the throught, I really do, but means I have six different filters to keep track of in my bag, rather than on main case that contains all six. And if I lose one of the bags, then my filter is exposed.
So what I did is I went to the dollar store and picked up a pair of clip-lock plastic storage containers that are just a tad larger so that I could file them together thanks to cutting up the packaging and using it to create proper dividers that are labeled. It would've been nice if Polar Pro included an organized case and just charged us another $5, especially one that would slip firmly into the Polar Pro PowerVault case, but I was able to make something to carry them for a buck, so it's all good.
The filters themselves require no special adapter to screw them on, as they adhere to the original GoPro lens by friction, thanks to tiny little nubs which hold the filter in place quite snugly, but not enough where you have to wrench them to pull them back off. With a firm tug, the filters will slip right off. I like this design because I don't have to deal with making sure my filter is properly screwed into place so it remains flush. It just slips on and stays there.
Now this means that to use them, you're going to have to use a skeleton mount, as the filters won't attach to a standard GoPro waterproof case. Personally, I prefer it that way, as most of what I shoot doesn't require the underwater housing. But if you're doing some action sports, then you may want to try an alternative ND filter setup like the Wonderpana Go, outlined in our Filters article here.
The filters perform as advertised. I found them to be very clear with little distortion, and the neutral density filters were really able to cut out the bright ambient light and give the image better detail. As for the pressure fit design that requires no screwing on or adapter, it works great. The filters fit snugly and they aren't going to fall off. I do wonder if the tight fit will loosen over time and cause the filters to eventually slip off, but I really doubt it.
I really don't have any complaints about the filters other than the choice to include six micro fiber bags to hold them, rather than one organized filter case. I would prefer that over trying to keep track of the micro fiber bags. I understand the thinking here, you want to keep them protected and free of dust and grime from your fingers, but a good cloth can do that. The problem is, that without proper labeling on the bags, you will end up fiddling through all of them until you find the one you want.
A filter case, with labeled sections would provide a more organized experience that would reduce finding the right filter, and that would be vital when you're on the ski slopes taking off your gloves and fiddling around trying to get the right filter on for the shot. And then you have to keep track of the bag along with all the others. The only other issue is that with the pressure fit design, shooters can't use them with GoPro waterproof case, so keep that in mind, as well. You'll have to used the skeleton mount or fix your footage in post.
Price for the Polar Pro GoPro Frame 2.0 Filter 6 Pack Professional edition is $99 for all six, a great value, and a fantastic addition to your action camera toolkit. It just needs a case to keep them organized. So come on, Polar Pro, give us a case and charge us another buck or two. It would be well worth it for the convenience.

Lambs to the Slaughter
|Lambs to the Slaughter
|Kaineng City Quests
|Given by
| Guildmaster Luan
in Kaineng Center
(Kaineng City)
|Preceded by
|The Shadow Blades
|Secondary quest
(Click to enlarge)
Eliminate the rival guild meeting in the Undercity.
Quest information[edit]
- Rendezvous with the Obsidian Flame and prepare for the assault on the Shadow Blades.
- Lead the Obsidian Flame to the place where the Shadow Blades are meeting. Destroy the rival organization.
- See Guildmaster Luan for your reward.
- 3,000 Experience
- 175 Gold
- Imperial Commendation
There are three ways to complete the quest. The first two reduce the number of foes before meeting with your allies, while the third attempts to reduce the threat on the Obsidian Flame (the "lambs") by exploiting the game mechanics. Following the most direct route tends to end in failing the quest because the assassins are not very durable. Only one of your assassin allies need to survive to get credit for the quest.
(1) From Vizunah Square (Local Quarter)[edit]
Exit Vizunah Square (Local Quarter) into the Undercity. Proceed across the bridge, killing the afflicted mob. Follow the route on the map to the north, avoiding The Afflicted Miju, then west (along the passage pointed to by the quest marker), and turn east. This provides enough time for the afflicted to pop out of the ground around the monk boss and approach the party.
Kill the nearest two mobs of afflicted and then the monk boss; being careful of Miju's Ray of Judgment, which can easily wipe your heroes or henchmen. Slowly kill the afflicted in the corridors leading to the west, luring mobs to avoid dual aggro. Once you reach the tunnel with the water droplets falling into a pool on the ground, return to the corridor where you fought Miju to fetch the Obsidian Flame Assassins.
Lead them to the tunnel you just cleared, and beyond to the waiting Shadow Blade Assassins. Flag any heroes or henchmen into the mob of Shadow Blade Assassins. They will remain friendly until the end of a brief dialogue, after which they will attack both the party and the Obsidian Flame Assassins. If you have flagged the team well, you can defeat the Shadow Blades with little or no Obsidian Flame casualties.
(2) From Marketplace — South[edit]
Non-Canthans without access to the Local Quarter can enter the Undercity from Wajjun Bazaar. You can speed things up considerably if you have Seek out Brother Tosai in your quest log, since this makes the Am Fah in the bazaar friendly. Once inside, proceed north and defeat the Am Fah within the Undercity on your way to the tunnel with the dripping water (near the quest marker on the map). Otherwise, follow the the same steps above.
(3) From Marketplace — North[edit]
This method is the most direct, but depends on a well balanced team of heroes and/or henchmen that you will micromanage. Take the north exit from the The Marketplace, then head east, cross the first bridge, and head to the Undercity portal (only two foe groups are en route). The Obsidian Flame assassins are allied immediately on entering the Undercity. Instead of leading your allies into danager, flag the heroes ahead to engage foes while the quest holder remains safely behind with the assassins. Repeat this process until you reach the Shadow Blades and defeat them. The Obsidian Flame will say, "Come and face your nightmare, Shadow Blades", even though they are not within aggro range. As soon as the last Shadow Blade dies, the quest log will update and you can return for your reward.
Initial dialogue[edit]
- Guildmaster Luan
- "The Shadow Blades have made a grievous error. I have ordered a group of our most skilled assassins to meet you in the Undercity. You will lead them to the Shadow Blades and destroy them. Show no mercy."
- Accept: "No mercy will be shown. You have my word."
- Decline: "Fight your own battles."
- Ask: "Now is the time to show your loyalty to the Obsidian Flame. Descend into the Shenzun Tunnels and lead those who await you to the Shadow Blades."
Intermediate dialogue[edit]
- Shadow Blade Assassin: "Once we assassinate Guildmaster Luan, we will cut through the rest of them with ease."
- Shadow Blade Assassin: "Nika is mine. Her blades took three of my fingers!"
- Shadow Blade Assassin: "The Obsidian Flame has found us! Kill them all!"
- Obsidian Flame Assassin: "Come and face your nightmare, Shadow Blades."
After you defeat the Shadow Blades:
- Obsidian Flame Assassin: "We will remain here and deal with any others who arrive. Report back to Guildmaster Luan. Now!"
Reward dialogue[edit]
- Guildmaster Luan
- "You have done well. The Shadow Blades were a dishonor to all Assassins, giving thought only to their coin purse and not the art of the profession."
- It helps to eliminate the Afflicted along the route between the two groups before speaking with the Obsidian Flame Assassins, as sometimes the Flames get killed when you escort them, forcing you to restart the quest.
- All the action takes place in the Undercity, but the Ask dialogue directs you to Shenzun Tunnels.
- Although a Shadow Blade Assassin states, "her blade took three of my fingers", he appears to have all ten fingers intact.
- The name of this quest is a biblical quotation (rather than a reference to Roald Dahl's short story 'Lamb to the Slaughter', which is a pun on the same phrase).

DEPOT is moving!
Five years after it first opened as a temporary, eight-week pop-up, Cardiff's biggest independent warehouse events venue is investing £300,000 into relocating to a new city-centre premises.
The DEPOT, who have established themselves as one of the biggest entertainment brands in the city, will cease trading at their current location on 31st January 2020, and reopen at a new 22,000 sq.ft venue based in a former Lyndons Scaffolding unit on Williams Way, Curran Embankment.
The move will increase the venue's capacity by 25% with the refurbishment of the new site taking place over the next two months. When complete, it will include five permanent street food kitchens based inside 20ft shipping containers; as well as an outdoor garden, and a huge 7m x 5m screen for cinema pop-ups, sports screenings and corporate events.
The DEPOT started life as a pop-up street food venue after being granted a temporary three-month licence in late 2014. It was the brainchild of then 23-year-old Nicholas Saunders, who later gained planning permission for the site to stay open for a further four years.
Since then, the former window fabrication factory has been used for a wide variety of events, including food and drink festivals, street food events, vintage fairs, weddings, Christmas parties and corporate conferences; but the site has long been earmarked for demolition as part of ongoing regeneration plans on Dumballs Road.
Nick Saunders, founder and Managing Director of The DEPOT venue and DEPOT Live brand, is now looking forward to the move to a more centrally-located site. He said:
"Despite starting life as a temporary pop-up, The DEPOT has grown to include a packed portfolio of annual events, established itself as a key part of Cardiff's alternative night-time economy, and attracted a tight-knit team of core staff, so we are all extremely pleased to be able to announce its continuation."

Are you considering running a business from your home? If you are, being your own boss is awesome, but don't make the same mistakes I did. I'm going to confess all my design mistakes to help you in designing a home office.
When I was designing a my office I took a total of two hours to design because it was a helter-skelter, haphazard arrangement. I was full of hope for the growth of my business, but I didn't realize it all begins with a suitable office design, which it wasn't.
First, get a good look at the actual space. If you plan on hiring staff or running a one person operation, you still need to be conscious of how you function within your space. Serious young entrepreneurs need their home offices to reflect their goals.
I should've done some design homework before setting up a completely dysfunctional home office. Designing a home office with Feng Shui is a little complicated, but a very cool and practical approach to design. For optimal Feng Shui harmony, if you're interior allows for a separate entry to your office, go with it. A clear separation between work and home should be your first choice.
Think of health, well-being and productivity for color palettes. Creamy yellows and soft whites are popular choices because they're motivating colors, but not distracting or disruptive. Poor lighting and air quality will affect the quality of your work. Ample natural lighting and an open window feeds your brain! Full spectrum lights and air purifying plants can help beef up your lighting and air quality.
How can you work not knowing what's behind you? Never position your desk with your back to a door. If you have to face a wall, make it disappear with a huge painting that accents your home office design, but also makes you smile. Computer Desk sizes vary from a small 30″ H x 42″ W x 24″ D with just one drawer to a larger contemporary design of 31″ H x 66″ W x 32″ D with more surface space and drawers for additional storage.
Consider wireless technology for your computer or laptop when designing a home office. A sleek contemporary desk with entrails of cords and wires hanging off it and spilling into a mess on the floor is unattractive and unpleasant.
Your home office design can be in a larger 200 square feet or small 70 square feet, whatever the size; use all of it to avoid quickly outgrowing it. If your space is tight, build up. Use all the empty wall space available for shelving things you need. It will also take things off the floor and give you the feeling of more space. It didn't even occur to me I might need to have client meetings in my first home office design, so try to incorporate a client seating area if possible.

Trainee Actuaries work in a range of different practice areas:
Trainee actuaries advise companies on all aspects of their pension scheme design and structure. They work alongside other professionals and provide actuarial advice.
General Insurance
Trainee actuaries work on pricing products such as motor and household insurance, advice on reserves and capital requirements, and may be involved in reinsurance arrangements.
In the reinsurance fields, trainee actuaries can design and price reinsurance and retro-reinsurance schemes, and to establish reserve funds for known claims and future claims and catastrophes.
Life assurance
This is the most traditional area for trainee actuaries to work in. Roles include financial reporting, product development and pricing. Actuaries may also advise on investment strategies, business planning, and strategic risk measurement.
Enterprise Risk Management
This is a new actuarial field. Trainee actuaries are involved in the identification, measuring and monitoring of risks to limit a company's losses. The level of risk taken is analyzed with regard the companies profit expectation.
Health & Care
This is a growing area and trainee actuaries are needed both in the private and public sectors. Trainee actuaries may be involved in pricing medical insurance and critical illness contracts or projecting public healthcare costs in the future.
Management Consulting
This area is suited to trainee actuaries with strong problem-solving skills, who enjoy a variety of work in a multi-disciplinary environment. A role in this area may involve working on large corporate transactions, M&A's and strategic investments.
Environmental Impact Modelling
An increasingly important aspect in the evaluation of both existing and proposed changes to the environment, habitats, drainage and topography due to main-made or climate changes to the land, air or water.

Q&A with an Actuary
What do you like about your job as an actuary?
Contrary to the stereotypical view of an actuary in movies such as "Along Came Polly" or "About Schmidt", life as an actuary is never boring! I have worked in a product development role for a number of years and I really enjoy working towards a common goal with a great team of highly intelligent and driven individuals. I also enjoy being exposed to and able to understand the insurance business from different angles as I interact with many different colleagues across the business. As a natural problem solver, I thrive on pulling together relevant data and using many of my actuarial skills to come up with the most viable solution given the various business constraints.
Is there anything you dislike about being an actuary?
I think there is no perfect job. There will always be some mundane trivial paperwork in most jobs these days. Thankfully the mundane aspect is relatively minor in my current actuarial role.
What do you think makes for a successful actuary?
Given the ever-changing world we live in, I believe that adaptability is increasingly important. Actuaries these days are expected to be able to transition across many different roles and to have a very wide skillset to thrive or even to just survive. Communication is a must for all actuaries in my opinion. You may not always have to present to a board, but you are going to have to, at the very least, communicate with your colleagues in a professional and competent manner in order to carry out much of your job as an actuary. As they say, no man is an island!
Do you have any general advice for new actuaries?
Yes, never stop learning! As mentioned above, we are living in very different times to the past, so it is critical that actuaries remain informed of the latest technologies, developments in the field and generally becoming a better professional over time. The actuarial exams are of course important, but they are just the beginning and should not be viewed as the end. One of the great things about being an actuary is that there is always room to grow and develop.
How to become an Actuarial Trainee Student
Although we have our own professional actuarial body in Ireland (the Society of Actuaries in Ireland), actuarial students in Ireland generally sit their actuarial exams via the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA) in the UK. Hence trainee actuaries in Ireland need to initially register as a student with the IFoA. The IFoA set out minimum requirements to become a student and these are as follows:
- Students must have a Leaving Certificate with a grade of A1 or A2 in Honours Mathematics. In addition prospective students should have a pass in a minimum of four other subjects one of which must be English.
- The Council of the IFoA may consider other qualifications that are equivalent to that stated above.
Alternatively you can also register as an actuarial student, via the IFoA, if you have received a degree awarded by the Republic of Ireland.

Microsoft Surface noise-cancelling headphones review: Impeccably designed, Indulgently priced
- Clean sense of aesthetics
- Fast pairing
- Way too expensive
- Underwhelming noise-cancelling
Bottom Line
The design and audio quality is sound but they're certainly not good enough to justify the premium price.
Price$ 499.00 (AUD)
Should I buy the Microsoft Surface Headphones?
The Surface Headphones aren't bad but they're somewhat-hamstrung by Microsoft's gutsy call to release them at such a high recommended retail price. It feels downright indulgent to consider these as a credible alternative to stuff like Boses' pricey 700 Series noise-cancelling headphones or Sony's equally-accomplished WH-1000M3s.
The Surface Headphones are a great first effort by Microsoft but you're paying more for the Surface branding here than any sort of superior noise-cancelling technology.
Price when reviewed
In Australia, the Microsoft Surface Headphones are priced at $499.

In Australia, you can buy the Microsoft Surface headphones for an RRP of $499 through:

Design & Build
Opting for a pearl white color palette full of whites and greys, the Surface Headphones mash together metal, plastic and fabric in a way that's not all that dissimilar from what brands like Sony, Jabra and Bose are doing nowadays. It's in spite of those superficial similarities that the Surface Headphones remain distinct enough to stand out among the crowd.
To their credit, the Surface Headphones look like a set of noise-cans that only Microsoft could get away with building in 2019. Still, at the end of the day, the Surface Headphones don't do quite enough to avoid feeling like yet another pair of headphones.
Read more: Microsoft slashes Surface RT prices for Aussie schools, universities
Under the hood, the Surface Headphones come powered by a 40 mm Free Edge drivers. Out of the box, they also come with a fabric carry-case and a charging cable. In terms of buttons, Microsoft have stuffed everything onto the right earcup.
The underside here houses a power button, a mute button, a headphone jack for wired playback when you need it and a USB Type-C port used for charging.
When it comes to moment to moment control, the Surface Headphones rely on haptic sensors built directly into the earcups. Tap once to play. Tap again to pause. Double tap to skip. Triple tap to go back. If you've used any headphones with touch controls released from the last three or four years, you'll feel right at home.
Features & Sound Quality
Read more: Microsoft planning smaller Surface tablet?
While it doesn't quite go so far as to offer the PowerPoint integration found in Microsoft's first set of true wireless earbuds, the Surface Headphones do have one unique hook in the form of fast and easy pairing with Windows 10 PCs via Swift Pair.
This works similarly to the fast pairing found with Apple's AirPods and iOS devices but isn't quite as frictionless. Overall, it's nice to have but it's not a game-changer.
Beyond this quirk, the Surface headphones are going to be a fairly straightforward plug/pair and play affair. For some, that's going to be a pro. For others, it might be a letdown. Noise-cancelling headphones aren't usually cheap but the Surface Headphones are more expensive than most and, to put it bluntly, the results they deliver struggle to justify that premium.
The soothing melodies of Cage the Elephant's "Come a Little Closer" were appropriately melancholy and and upbeat ska riffs of Reel Big Fish's "I Know You Too Well To Like You Anymore" came across with just enough puffed-up pizazz to get me by but, compared to some of the other options, the Surface Headphones just didn't deliver the same level of immersion or quality.
They're a little soft on the bass, the fidelity isn't there and the noise-cancelling rarely seemed to achieve the feat of fully isolating my against outside sound. Sitting in an office with the Surface Headphones on my head was certainly quieter than the alternative.
A big part of what makes modern noise cancelling headphones so cool is their consistency and the Surface Headphones fail to deliver on this critical front. Unfortunately and most of the time, the cocoon of silence created by the Surface Headphones is made of a thin membrane that's all-too-easily pierced.
Battery Life
With noise-cancelling enabled and over Bluetooth, The Microsoft Surface headphones last for about 15 hours of playback. Turning off stuff like voice activation will net you three or so extra hours.
In line with most aspects of the Surface Headphones, this isn't terrible but it doesn't really compete with the big guns of the category either. With a price as high as the Surface Headphones command, that's not good enough.
The Bottom Line
It feels like the Surface Headphones mostly exist simply to prove that Microsoft can make a decent pair of noise-cancelling headphones. The design and audio quality is sound but they're certainly not good enough to justify the premium price. Still, they did leave me hungry for more.
If Microsoft can make a decent pair of headphones like this on a first effort, who's to say how much better their sophomore effort will be.
Planning to pass on the Microsoft Surface headphones and need an alternative? Check out our guide to the best noise-cancelling headphones here.

Introduction to Highlander
Highlander is a slot that is based on the famous 1980s movie about immortals. The film takes place in both New York and the Scottish Highlands, and it follows the story of two immortals. It was a cult hit when it first came out - and now fans of the film can experience it all over again with this interesting slot.
The game includes lots of characters from the original film, including Brenda Wyatt, Connor McLeod and the Kurgan. The game itself is set in the Scottish Highlands, rather than New York - but this makes sense as most of the action in the film actually takes place in Scotland.
But even if you haven't heard of the film, it is still possible that you will enjoy this slot. After all, it has quite a few bonus features to discover, and with over 240 ways to win, there is a lot of payout potential.
Highlander Review / First Impressions
The first thing that we noticed when we loaded up the game was the graphics. The game clearly takes place in the Scottish Highlands, as you can see the moors behind the reels, which is nice for fans of the film - but admittedly the graphics could be a little better. This is because they are a little basic, but they serve their purpose, and thankfully, the symbols are considerably better. Some of the symbols are faces of characters from the film, and they are so detailed they almost look like photographs. This is a really nice touch!
The gameplay itself is fairly enjoyable. This is because it is a low to medium volatility game, so you won't have to wait ages to find a win. However, the wins are fairly small, so you should definitely keep an eye out for the bonus features.
Payout Ratio (or RTP) of Highlander Slot
The payout ratio for this game is 96.2%.
Highlander Slot Graphics
Highlander takes place in the Scottish Highlands, although this isn't clear straight away. As the game loads you will see a stormy night sky, with black and blue clouds growing thick in the sky. In front of the clouds is a large bolt of lightning, which definitely helps to create an intense mood.
Once the game has loaded you will see the Scottish Highlands. Green hills roll across the middle of the screen, and there are tall rock faces and mountains at each side of the reels. Above them is the stormy sky, and at the bottom of the screen you can see an old Scottish stone wall. This scene is pretty detailed; you can see the blades of grass in the field, and there is even heather growing at the bottom of the screen.
The scene is moody and dark, which is perfect for the theme. The reels themselves are a dark blue, which fits in well with the stormy sky, and some of the symbols fit in with the theme of the game. For instance you will see some of the film's most popular characters on the reels, including the Kurgan, Connor MacLeod, Heather MacLeod and Brenda Wyatt. All of these symbols are very detailed, so they should impress fans of the original film.
There are also some low value symbols that are represented by playing cards. These symbols don't fit in with the theme of the game, which is a bit of a shame, but they still look good.
Overall, most fans of the film should be fairly happy with the graphics. They definitely fit in with the theme - it would just be nice if the background was a little more creative.
Highlander Game Theme
The theme for this game is the 1980s movie Highlander. The film is about two immortals who fight in a parking lot in New York, and how their lives interlink with a forensic scientist living in New York. The film was hugely popular when it was first released, and over time it has grown into a cult classic that is loved by millions of people across the globe.
So if you are a fan of the movie, this slot is probably perfect for you. But if you don't really like movie-themed slots, you should probably find a different game that appeals to you more!
How to Play Highlander Slots
Before you start spinning the reels with immortals you will need to set your stake. You can do this using the control panel that can be found on screen. You can spin the reels from just 0.30 per spin, which is pretty affordable - but you can go all the way up to 500 per spin, so if you have money to blow you can still enjoy this game!
Once you have set your bet you can spin the reels manually, or you can use the on-screen autoplay button. This will spin the reels automatically for you, so you can focus on other things while the reels turn.
Highlander Game Volatility
Highlander is a low to medium volatility game.
How To Win at Highlander Slots
You need to get at least three matching symbols in a row if you want to form a win with this game. This will result in an automatic cash prize, but don't get too distracted by the normal symbols, as there are also special symbols and bonus features to boost your winnings.
Highlander Bonus Features
There are wilds in this game, and they can be used to replace any of the normal symbols on the reels. This makes it easier for you to create wins throughout the game.
The game also has a scatter symbol (which is represented by the green eye). If you manage to get at least three scatter symbols on the reels the free game will automatically be triggered, and you will be taken to a second screen with a bonus game. This part of the game takes place in New York (which is a nice touch for film fans!), and you will be treated to a free spins game that could include more scatters. If it does, you will re-trigger even more free spins, and quickening wilds can also appear on screen. This can result in some seriously high payouts, so if you want to succeed with this game you should definitely keep an eye out for the scatters.
Highlander Strategy and Tips
We don't have any tips for winning with this game as it is completely random. This means that it is impossible for anyone to predict the outcome of a spin, so you can't work out if you will win or lose before you play. However, we do recommend that players always set a budget before they start playing, as this means that they are less likely to overspend. It is also very important to make sure that you don't chase losses, as this can result in some serious overspending.
If you think that you have a problem, please contact us so that we can help.
Highlander Slot Biggest Possible Win
You can form quite a few big wins in the base game for this slot, especially if you get at least three matching high value symbols. However, the biggest wins can probably be found in the bonus round, as you will be rewarded with free spins and quickening wilds. This boosts your winnings, and also means that it is easier for you to form multiple wins in a short amount of time. So if you want to walk away with a significant win, you should try to trigger the bonus game.
However, it is worth noting that this game doesn't have a progressive jackpot, so it is unlikely that you will find a life-changing win here. This isn't ideal for some players, but it is fairly standard for a low to medium volatility slot.
Free Spins on Highlander Slot
You can win free spins when you are playing this game. You just need to get at least three scatter symbols on the reels, and you will be taken to a second game that automatically pays out free spins. This feature can be triggered multiple times, which is good news for anyone who loves free spins.
Highlander Slot On Mobile - Android, iPhones and Tablets

The contribution of multiple use forest management to small farmers' annual incomes in the Eastern Amazon
Sist P., Sablayrolles P., Barthelon S., Sousa-Ota L., Kibler J.F., Ruschel A.R., Santos Melo M., Ezzine de Blas D.. 2014. Forests, 5 (7) : p. 1508-1531.
Small-scale farmers in the Brazilian Amazon collectively hold tenure over more than 12 million ha of permanent forest reserves, as required by the Forest Code. The trade-off between forest conservation and other land uses entails opportunity costs for them and for the country, which have not been sufficiently studied. We assessed the potential income generated by multiple use forest management for farmers and compared it to the income potentially derived from six other agricultural land uses. Income from the forest was from (i) logging, carried out by a logging company in partnership with farmers' associations; and (ii) harvesting the seeds of Carapa guianensis (local name andiroba) for the production of oil. We then compared the income generated by multiple-use forest management with the income from different types of agrarian systems. According to our calculations in this study, the mean annual economic benefits from multiple forest use are the same as the least productive agrarian system, but only 25% of the annual income generated by the most productive system. Although the income generated by logging may be considered low when calculated on an annual basis and compared to incomes generated by agriculture, the one-time payment after logging is significant (US$5,800 to US$33,508) and could be used to implement more intensive and productive cropping systems such as planting black pepper. The income from forest management could also be used to establish permanent fields in deforested areas for highly productive annual crops using conservation agriculture techniques. These techniques are alternatives to the traditional land use based on periodic clearing of the forest. Nevertheless, the shift in current practices towards adoption of more sustainable conservation agriculture techniques will also require the technical and legal support of the State to help small farmers apply these alternatives, which aim to integrate forest management in sustainable agricultural production systems.
