Top 25 Things to do in BENIDORM
As suggested by Benidorm-Seriously Facebook members - in no particular order
For details of things to do in the SURROUNDING AREA
WALK/DRIVE UP TO THE FAMOUS CROSS - Mirador de la Cruz
The views from the cross are spectular both day and night, it is well worth a visit just to see the stunning scenery across Benidorm and the surrounding area. It is situated at the top of the Sierra Gelada Natura reserve. There are various routes of getting to it from the town, you can also drive most of the way and then take the steps and path up to the actual cross itself. The number 24 bus will take you about 1/3rd of the way up. You can also continue walking across the mountains to Albir Lighthouse. Make sure you take water etc with you as there are no services etc at the cross itself.

A very large stage is behind the dance floor, the dance floor is raised to the level of the stage dramatically increasing the stages size and allowing the performers to come right out into the audience

The spectacular lighting effects bring the feathers of the magnificent dancers costumes to life. A different show is put on each year. If you have booked direct with the Servigroup hotels ask about FREE tickets. BOOK YOUR TICKETS HERE
Head into the little cobbled streets in the historic old town you can enjoy mouth-watering morsels of Spain from the tapas bars.
It's known locally as Tapas Alley because it is filled with bars serving these tasty treats.
The small dishes of tapas are perfect for sharing and for trying food that you may not feel comfortable ordering as a main course in case you don't like it.
Ordering tapas is also perfect for getting a taste of some of the more expensive dishes, such as Denia red prawns or the more expensive Spanish ham, without running up a massive bill. Find out more here.

Visit 'San Jaime' Church (St James) Benidorm Old Town
The church of "Saint James is dedicated to the patron saint of the town, is set at the very top of the Old Town on Canfali hill. It is a Neoclassical building, built in the 18th Century with the typical blue Mediterranean tiled dome.
Inside you´ll find a statue of the Virgen del Sufragio, the well-loved patron saint of Benidorm. The Virgin has her own small chapel containing the little wood sculpture which, as the story goes, was found on a boat adrift on the high seas.
The legend of the Virgin says that in 1740 the residents of Benidorm were surprised by the arrival of a ship who had sailed there without crew. It was thought that perhaps the cause of the disappearance of the crew was the plague and this instilled dread in the local villagers. The authorities decided to burn the boat to keep people safe. It was burned without removing anything. When the flames were extinguished, the children searched amongst the remains and found "intact and shining" an image of the Virgin with the Child Jesus in her arms. The Fiesta day of the Virgen del Sufragio is always held on the second Sunday of November.
The church is open for Mass at 10am until 13.00 and then is closed until the evening Mass is at 7pm then one at 8pm, On Sunday various Masses are celebrated throughout the day and the church is open until after the last Mass. Beautiful music is piped during the day throughout the building and it really is a stunning church well worth seeing whilst in Benidorm.
This is a long, extensive public park in the neoclassical style, designed by architect Ricardo Bofill. It´s a truely beautiful park and well worth a visit. The park separates the old city from the modern buildings and it has two amphitheatres used for cultural events in the summer months. The Benidorm song festival takes place in the Julio Iglesias auditorium in the park for two days in the month of June, and various other music festivals are held during the year. The park ends at the Bullring and an enclosure which is used for fairs during fiestas.
BENIDORM BULLRING (Plaza de Toros)
Several bullfights with top named matadors are held every year. If you've ever doubted the popularity of the sport, wait 'til you see how packed it gets. The bullring is also used during fiesta times for The running with the bulls and amateur bullfights.
The bullring in Benidorm was opened in 1962. Capacity of 9,971 people.
El Mirador de la Punta del Canfali – THE CASTLE, LOOK OUT POINT - major excavation work is going on in this area at the moment - keep up to date with news HERE
The castle/fortress was situated on the big rock that divides the two beaches (Lavante and Poneinte) and its main purpose was to guard against invasions of the Berber pirates. The castle was thought to have stood here around 1325, this is the highest point in Benidorm, with its characteristic white balustrade it is one of the symbols of the city. The viewpoint has two parts, a top with benches and rest areas, and another viewing point down quite a few quite steep steps which offers views closer to the sea.
Sadly the castle sustained significant damage during the peninsular war and was then abandoned and most of it disappeared in 1812. Today only a few remains of the walls and one arch are still visible, which you can see on the lookout rocks (Mirador), this area is also known as "Balcony of the Mediterranean." and one of Benidorm Old Towns most visited tourist spots with panoramic 360º views.
You will see in the sea a Geiser, this was in working order up to a few years ago but.It was detected that the water was eroding the structures in the area, such as the balustrade, the buildings and the rocks that make up Punta Canfali and sadly is no longer functional.
To get to the Plaza del Castell, there are many streets that converge to it, all of them with their own special charm. A nice hike is for example Alameda Street. When you get to the beginning of Calle Mayor, turn left, it is a street that leads directly to the sea and takes the first right, to climb the area of Callejón, you will see many old buildings, cobbled and narrow streets and stone arches ... A small slice of what was, within what is now a modern city.
Some call it Peacock Island, others Benidorm Rock and the locals refer to it as simply L'illa (the island), if you've never made the journey across the bay to explore it, then you really should, because it's a great day out. Enjoy the amazing views of the Benidorm skyline from the Mediterranean framed by the towering Puig Campana mountain (the one with the hole in the top) it is simply stunning – in fact the whole trip is worth it just for that view.
When you get to the island you can spend as little or as long as you want just check with a crew member the time of the last boat back before you disembark. Enjoy an ice cream or some typical tapas in the restaurant or make a day of it and take a picnic. The island is a protected national park so flora and fauna abound - wander the path to the summit for a great view of the coast right up to Alicante, then find a comfy patch of rock or undergrowth to enjoy your picnic, with just the fresh sea air and the gulls for company
Also included in the price of your crossing is an 'underwater' experience. Known as the Aquascope it loks like a yellow submarine but don't panic – it doesn't really go underwater. Instead passengers climb aboard and down into to bowels of the vessel which is glass lined, allowing you to see the marine life swimming free in its natural habitat – its absolutely amazing and the kids will love it.
There is a boat that leaves every hour from 10.00am at the port (all year round) and from the boarding platform in the Rincon de Loix (only during the summer months) These are dependent upon good weather conditions the boats just go back and forth, during the day. The journey time takes around 20 minutes each way and costs 15€ for adults and 12€ for children (2 - 10). For details of all boat trips click HERE
At Terra Natura Benidorm you can see more than 1,500 animals from 200 different species, 50 of which are in serious danger of extinction, and over 2,500 examples of more than 160 species of trees, shrubs and ground cover plants from these regions. As well as the hugely varied collection of wildlife, our educational information (through placards with biological details and information points), the architectural theming and the range of shows, entertainment and adventure activities make Terra Natura the venue of choice for families looking to spend an interesting and entertaining day in a natural setting.

Fast shipping and a Perfect fit for my 2005 Wilderness System Freedom 15 sit on top !
I purchased two of these units and they fit perfectly in the 6" round hatches of my 2016 Perception Pescador. This will be perfect for storing small items. Without the bag, the hatches are worthless as anything you placed inside would be lost within the interior of the hull. And, as always, great price and service from ACK.
This is not so much a review of the Tarpon bags but the marketing thereof. Let me explain; I own an ATAK 120 and a TARPON 100. My ATAK has small bags, one in the stern and one under the chair. My TARPON has two large bags, one on the bow and one in the seating area. My assumption was that if I order a TARPON bag, I would receive the large bags to fit .......a TARPON. Well, assumptions prevailed and I got small ATAK bags that I didn't need. Make sure you confirm what you are ordering through ACK did not provide a very clear description of this item, only pictures without dimensions. Still my fault but you get the point.
Just received my cat bag it works perfectly with my 2017 perception pescador pro 100. Tip remove original string to the cap. Install cat bag and use string inside cat bag attached to cap and you are done. It's awesome strongly recommend
This fit the center hatch on my Perception striker 11.5,keeps small items handy .
This bag fit the 6" hatch in my Perception Pescador Pro 10 perfectly. Highly recommend the bag.
This bag fits perfectly in my 6" hatch in my Perception Striker Angler 11.5. I keep my keys, billfold, and other small stuff in it when I'm fishing. It's easily accessible at all times. I no longer have a bunch of stuff in my pockets. This is a really nice bag at a good price.
Fits my older Perception kayak perfectly.
Fits a Perception Pescador 12.0 perfectly.
Exactly what I needed for my perception kayak.
I ordered 2 of these for my Perception Pescador 12. They fit perfectly. I especially like the tether that is sewn into the bag for connecting it to the kayak and connecting the hatch cover to the bag.
works perfect in my 14 foot perception pescador, the hatches are now useful, excellent service, thanks
the Cat Hatch bag was a perfect fit to replace the old one. Exactly as ordered and received timely as promised.
A little snug. Glad I got it or hole would be useless.
Fits perfectly in my pescador 14
Perfect fit for the center hatch in my Perception Pescador 12 Angler.
This fit my 2012 model 10' Perception Pescador perfectly. I found out that it would by reading these reviews. I turned over my yak last weekend and everything in the cat bag stayed nice and dry. I recommend it highly.
Exactly what I wanted. Fits a Perception Sport 10' perfectly.
Perfect fit for my Perception Sport Pescador and West Marine Pompano kayak. Thanks for stocking this item.
This fits our Perception Pescador Tandem hatches perfectly. ACK got it here fast. This bag is really handy for small items: lip balm, sun screen, bug spray, things that don't mind getting wet. It can hold a small dry box or bag for cell phone, car keys, wallet, camera, light, etc. So for us, no water has gotten in- make sure the hatch is on securely.
Just wanted to let folks know that this bag fits the Perception Pescador Tandem hatch. We bought one at the Spring TX store and later a second one online. Excellent service from ACK. It got here fast. We've never gotten water in there but...anything you would not want to get wet should go into a dry bag or case. Items like a wallet, sunscreen, bug spray, lip balm, lights, cell phone, camera and other items you want close at hand, this thing is great.
perfect fit. Great produst
As one of the other reviewers stated this bag fits the Perception sport Pescador 10 or 12 which is the exact same hulls as the pre 2009 WS Tarpon 100 or 120. It will fit both 6" hatches and is great for keeping your stuff in one place with easy access. If you make sure the covers are on the hatches correctly, I would consider the inside of the hull including these bags to be watertight.
If you have purchased a Perception Sport Pescador 10 you already know this yak is the pre-2010 Tarpon 100 made by Wilderness Systems. The Pescador 10 does not come with a cat bag like the earlier Tarpon 100 did. This cat bag drops right into the Pescador 10 for a factory perfect fit. The ACK shopping experience cannot be beaten.
Did a on line chat with customer service, making sure that it fit my wilderness tarpon 110, ordered product, received product, wrong size, way to small. went back to website and contacted customer service and they said that they don't make the size i need, very disappointing, was looking forward to something I needed and something i could use,,,,no such luck
Fits Perception Pescador 6 inch front and mid hatches perfectly. Should fit the Pompano 6 inch hatch also
Fit my Pescadore 12 center hatch perfectly. Very convenient.
Arrived fast! Bags slipped right into my PS Pescador. Have used many times since I got them and they work perfect.
5 stars. Fits perfect in my pescador 12. Love it!
Bag fits perfect in my Pescador 12 hatch. ACK service was fantastic!
Fast deliver. Product received as advertised. Thank ACK.
Just what I needed. Perfect fit. It is good to know where storage items will be while out on the water.
Very nice. Fits the Perception Pescador 12 perfectly.
Very handy, fits perfectly in one of the small hatches of my Pescador 12.
Easy in, easy out. Tethers to yak and fits properly.Thanks ACK for immediate shipping!
Very well made.
Great product! Fit my perception kayak. No complaints here and love ACKs prompt shipping!
Works great with perception 10 foot pescador....
Works great with my 12' Perception Pescador.Highly reccomended.
Fits perfect on my Perception Pescador.
Perfect and really fast delivery.
Great addition, will use always!
Great price and great fit!
Fits perfectly in my 12' Perception Sport Pescador. The ideal solution.
No Frills, Tight Fit, Secure, Does the Job, However the rope lead makes it hard for the hatch cover to secure as snug as it should be.
This is advertised at one inch bigger then what my measurement were for my hatch. I spoke to an ACK employee who assured me it would fit my Tarpon. It worked great! I wish I would have ordered it a year ago. Thanks Ack..
Prompt, perfect replacement
Average replacement...didn't fit quite right but I might have ordered wrong size?? Solid construction, though.
Not quite as "nice" as the one that came with the kayak but still will do the trick. Good price.
I bought this hatch bag for my Tarpon 140 and it fit perfectly.
Came quick, great price, no problems at all. Will order from them again.
This fit perfectly in the rear hatch of my '06 Tarpon 120. Great service too. Thanks
Great price on an essential upgrade. REAL dry storage as it hangs above the kayak bottom, unlike the hatch between your legs (on the Tarpon 120). Oh, and as always ACK service is SUPER!
Fits perfectly in my 2008 Tarpon 120. I use it in the hatch behind the seat.
This is the dry bag that should have been installed from the factory --- in the empty hatch behind the seat. The dry bag in the hatch in front of the seat lays on the bottom of the boat = it gets wet! The rear hatch is higher & drier!
The perfect fit for my Tarpon 120. Great
The correct hatch for my tarpon. Fit perfect.
perfect fit for tarpons

Test Cheat
Test-cheat probe may yield more arrests
As many as nine students and former students and four other individuals suspected of being paid to assume students' identities – and take the SAT and ACT exams on their behalf – will surrender tomorrow, said a source close to the investigation into a cheating scandal that has enveloped Nassau County.
The expected arrests come as at least four more schools are implicated in the probe: Great Neck South High School; Roslyn High School; St. Mary's High School in Manhasset; and North Shore Hebrew Academy High School in Great Neck, according to the source.
The source would not disclose whether students from the newly implicated schools would be among those to turn themselves in tomorrow at the Nassau district attorney's office.
Roslyn's superintendent of schools yesterday sought to emphasize that the investigation targets individuals, saying in a statement that the school district has "no direct involvement with these exams" because the standardized tests used toward college admissions are "administered by private organizations."
"Any suggestion that law enforcement officials are investigating school districts is without merit," Superintendent Dan Brenner said in the statement.
Great Neck Public Schools Board of Education vice president Fran Langsner declined to answer questions, saying only: "This is an ongoing investigation. We are cooperating with the district attorney's office."
Attempts to reach St. Mary's and North Shore Hebrew Academy were unsuccessful.
Some students who prosecutors said cheated on exams cannot be charged because the tests were more than two years ago, exceeding the statute of limitations for misdemeanors.
Prosecutors in September arrested seven current and former students from Great Neck North High School, charging they are part of a cheating ring.

"I'll give you a quick demonstration": Marc Pell reveals his secret powers and his jungle.
Marc Pell, alias Suitman Jungle, who is apparently a quiet London business man wearing a classic, blue suit and an sober ochre tie, is one of the few contemporary artists, that can represent suitably our frenetic 21st century, a chaotic metropolitan atmosphere in continuous technological expansion, using a simple chain of formulas, obscure until now.
Immediately we unconsciously start reading it with constant percussive rhythm and even tapping with our fingers on the table or whatever surface our hands are leaning on.
These onomatopoeias represent our heartbeat, but at the same time the word "dub" stands for a subgenre of reggae music which blossomed during the subversive 60s, mixing and reshaping different sounds, supported by an accentuated drum and bass.
This D&B beat started progressively accelerating in less than 30 years, at the same time as the technologic evolution was developing a revolutionary product, that any sci-fi novel writer or film director couldn't even imagine: The Internet.
This theory was illustrated by a Stratford-based elegant, blonde haired man, who suddenly walked on the narrow stage placed in a hidden psychedelic (their humanized yellow flowers squelched down by red feet painted on its wall can really blow your mind) haven of The Windmill in Brixton, during the last day of September, when usually a chilly breeze appears pushing away shiny and warm summer feelings and spreading instead gelid and dark autumn ones.
This pleasant man, pointing out his graph, kindly presented himself, as he was in a serious business convention, instead of a potential AA session: "Let me begin by introducing myself: "I'm Marc Pell. I work at OBS, Original Bassline Services."
Pause. Suspense. Light drumming track looping in the background.
Then he pronounced his ice-breaking line: "I'll give you a quick demonstration," and everything turned into electric blue as his suit and the atmosphere exploded in a dazzling chaos, as if Pandora opened her box again. Indeed, step by step, glimpse by glimpse, beat by beat, flash by flash everybody in that tiny spinning rainbow ball started losing themselves in a uncontrolled looping march through space and time, back to the raving 90s, to the yuppie Kraftwerkian 80s, to the hippie Pink Floydish 70s, and even further, to the ancient times when Native American or African shamans, to cure their devotees or to communicate with their ancestors or gods, were using hammering dancing movements and hypnotising drumming rhythms.
Therefore, Mr. Pell can be seen as a 21st-century European (we are still in 2017, so this adjective is approved by the majority of the UK Parliament and totality of ones of the others countries) version of a shaman, hidden behind an exuberant Harry Gibson's mask and a polite Clark Kent's outfit; who using his secret powers as an hypnotic pendulum can make the audience start waggling, wiggling, jiggling wildly, following captivating sub-bass lines and ferocious beats.
But as an old storyteller, tired of keeping inside his head ancient arcane myths, he reveals: "If I'm writing a straight-up jungle/DnB/quick punk-y track, I'll usually begin with a groove. I record all my loops from tapes of me playing various kits in all kinds of spaces which are surrounding me."
He also uses a Pocket Operator (known strangely also as "teenage engineering") – that is a drum sequencer, which make easy composing enchanting grooves on.
Groove is a word that means also fixed routine, something you had to deal with every day, repetitive actions that turn you in an annoyed and slightly paranoid android. On the other hand, it is that frenetic loop that turns your mechanical alienation into a liberating dual state of trance-translation.
He continues: "Bass lines generally come from tropical birdsong, that have many inflections and unpredictable rhythms. I usually register these peculiar songs or rip them from YouTube. After that, I layer sounds on top of these spliced songs until eventually there is nothing left of the original sample."
But there are apparent interferences weaving into this shaking catharsis: disturbing laughing, vintage advertisements created by his acute voice going through a pitch shifter and delay pedal chain, and then a sweet voice of a little girl, her niece, that insistently says, as the track's title suggests: "Do Anything You Want", that could be naïve, but instead it's a terribly powerful imperative, a truth coming from pure innocence, that can cure your insecurity.
Indeed, he followed his instincts just two years ago, because before he was paralysed by the economical aspect of life, that afflict every human-android being many times during their daily process of organisation, consumption and (eventually) production.
After years and years of Odyssey, like a modern Ulysses, influenced by his male Apollonian muses – like The Jungle Drummer (London Elektricity), Giles Kwakebass & Greg Fox and his Dionysian ones like Reggie Watts and Bill Bailey – obtained a small drum kit made-up of a rack tom, snare drum, hi-hat and woodblock and began sharing his artistic dexterity on the streets, like the first troubadours.
Indeed, for our hero, it's extremely important to have a strong connection with his audience, emailing and contacting everyone, instead of the traditional promoting on Facebook or Instagram: he has just 300 loyal followers, but at the same time his track Mind the Gap has been streamed 2,167 times on SoundCloud.
His only weakness, kryptonite, Achilles' heel, "is putting the hours in to turning these simple, short ideas into full tracks without my colleagues and boss knowing!" he humbly admits.
"I'm not a prophet or a stone aged man, just a mortal with potential of a superman. I'm living on." A collective voice is echoing coming from another time, another space and dimension.
So please, be quiet, maintain and protect his ancient and futuristic secrets and remember: mind the gap, waiting for his EP will come out next summer.
Words by Federica Ardizzone

There's been some fringe push for legalizing these drugs as prescription possibilities for psychiatry, but they're having trouble getting legal permission to do preliminary testing. I hope it stays that way and nothing gets off the ground. Here's why.
Prescribing hallucinogens and Ecstasy would raise psychiatry's ailing popularity. Psych is starting to get a bad rap, and for good reason, too. They're likely running out of ideas. Having these appealing drugs in their arsenal will bring in all sorts of new customers. This is bad news for us in the anti-psych crowd.
Secondly, What if these drugs got into the wrong hands? I'm not talking about drug abusers or resellers, but into the hands of psychiatrists who were using the patient's "high" for less than ethical purposes. Sexual assault comes to mind, along with brainwashing, controlling the patient, silencing, and other forms of abuse. "Molding the mind"sounds terrifying to me.
Thirdly, what if psychiatry decides to administer these dangerous drugs by force? What if patients were on such a regimen as part of AOT?
Do we really want a nation that's stoned? A large population easily influenced because they can no longer think straight?
Or do we have that already, in the form of drugging with Prozac, Zyprexa, and other emotion-suppressing drugs?
The very thought of being drugged with that stuff scares the heck out of me. I cherish my emotions and I do not find emotions hard to bear. Even the toughies are preferable to smothering my emotions with drugs.
If I wanted illegal drugs, I sure would not go to a psychiatrist to get them. I'd get them on the street, and that by choice, and choice only.

InterDigital Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2017 Financial Results
WILMINGTON, Del., Feb. 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — InterDigital, Inc. (IDCC), a mobile technology research and development company, today announced results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2017.
Fourth Quarter 2017 Financial Highlights
- Fourth quarter 2017 recurring revenue increased 6% to $99.1 million, compared to $93.6 million in fourth quarter 2016, primarily driven by an increase in fixed-fee revenue due to the patent license agreement with LG Electronics, Inc. signed during fourth quarter 2017 (the "LG PLA"). Recurring revenue consists of current patent royalties and current technology solutions revenue.
- Fourth quarter 2017 total revenue was $205.3 million, compared to $273.9 million in fourth quarter 2016. Fourth quarter 2016 included $180.3 million of past patent royalties, as compared to $106.2 million in fourth quarter 2017.
- Fourth quarter 2017 operating expenses were $59.6 million, compared to $64.7 million in fourth quarter 2016. The decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to a decrease in performance-based incentive compensation driven by higher accrual rates in 2016 associated with new agreements signed during that year.
- Net income1 was $52.5 million, or $1.48 per diluted share, compared to $136.5 million, or $3.85 per diluted share, in fourth quarter 2016.
- In fourth quarter 2017, the company recorded $217.5 million of cash provided by operating activities, compared to $233.3 million in fourth quarter 2016. The company generated $207.7 million of free cash flow2 in fourth quarter 2017, compared to $222.5 million in fourth quarter 2016. Ending cash and short-term investments totaled $1.2 billion.
Full Year 2017 Financial Highlights
- Full year 2017 recurring revenue was $370.0 million, a 4% increase from the prior year. The increase was primarily driven by contributions from the company's technology solutions customers as well as the LG PLA.
- Full year 2017 total revenue was $532.9 million, compared to $665.9 million in full year 2016. Full year 2016 included $309.7 million of past patent royalties, as compared to $162.9 million in full year 2017.
- Fixed-fee amortized royalties were $301.6 million in 2017, a 70% increase compared to 2016.
- Full year 2017 operating expenses were $231.4 million, compared to $228.5 million in 2016.
- Net income1 was $174.3 million, or $4.87 per diluted share, compared to $309.0 million, or $8.78 per diluted share, in full year 2016.
- In full year 2017, the company recorded $315.8 million of cash provided by operating activities, compared to $434.2 million in full year 2016. The company generated $278.8 million of free cash flow2 in full year 2017, compared to $395.6 million in full year 2016. The decrease is primarily attributable to the timing of cash receipts under fixed-fee arrangements.
"InterDigital's research and development helps drive the entire mobile industry, and the result is a business model with outsized scale and tremendous leverage. That translated into another very strong quarter and year from a cash flow perspective," said William J. Merritt, President and CEO of InterDigital. "Our focus going forward is to maintain and grow that core business and continue to search for opportunities to expand the range of technologies we can bring to our customers."
Impact of 2017 Tax Cut and Jobs Act
- The company's fourth quarter 2017 effective tax rate was 64.1% compared to 34.0% during fourth quarter 2016. The increase resulted from a $42.6 million charge to revalue the company's net deferred tax assets due to the 2017 Tax Cut and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act"), enacted in December 2017.
- The company's full year 2017 effective tax rate was 41.6% compared to 27.7% in 2016. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to the revaluation of our net deferred tax assets at the new statutory tax rate of 21.0%. That revaluation contributed approximately 14.6% to the rate increase.
- While the company continues to review the Tax Act and related guidance, on a go-forward basis the company currently expects a significant portion of its income to qualify as Foreign Derived Intangible Income (FDII), which would be subject to a 13.1% tax rate.
Near-Term Outlook
First quarter 2018 marks the first period in which the company will report revenue under the new revenue recognition standard, FASB ASC 606, which became effective for the company January 1, 2018. As the company has previously disclosed, it will no longer recognize revenue from certain of its fixed-fee license agreements and is now required to estimate royalties on its per-unit licensees' quarterly sales of royalty-bearing products.
Under ASC 606, the company expects first quarter 2018 revenue to be between $66 million and $71 million, comprised primarily of recurring revenue. Applying accounting rules in effect prior to the company's adoption of ASC 606, the company would have otherwise expected first quarter 2018 revenue recognized to be between $90 million and $95 million, comprised primarily of recurring revenue. The company also notes that in conjunction with adopting ASC 606, it expects to record an additional $5 million non-cash interest expense in first quarter 2018. Note that the guidance under the old accounting policies is to provide additional transparency and comparability with prior periods and is not a substitute for the new ASC 606 revenue recognition standard under GAAP applicable for the first quarter of 2018.
This revenue guidance does not include the potential impact of any new patent license, technology solutions or patent sale agreements that may be signed, or any arbitration or dispute resolutions that may occur, during the balance of first quarter 2018.

Elgin-based housebuilder Springfield Properties, which went public last year, said on Monday it "continues to evaluate opportunities to acquire land" as demand for housing in Scotland continues to outstrip supply.
Springfield is building a number of new villages throughout Scotland.
In a trading update for the six months to November 30, 2018, Springfield said it expects to report revenue and profit growth for the first half of 2018-19 in line with management's expectations and intends to declare an interim dividend for the period.
In September, Springfield announced its maiden annual results — for the year ended May 31, 2018 — reporting that total revenue increased 27% to £140.7 million and adjusted profit before tax rose 46% to £9.8 million.
On Monday, Springfield said: "As stated, at the time of the full year results, on 18 September 2018, Springfield entered the new financial year with a strong and established pipeline and was experiencing sustained demand underpinned by the continuedrequirement for more homes in Scotland for private individuals and across all tenures in the affordable and social housing sector.
"During the first six months, this demand supported good progress with completions and revenue in the Group's private housing and affordable divisions increasing compared with H1 2017/18, with private housing continuing to account for a majority of total revenue.
"Springfield also progressed the development of existing sites, receiving planning consent on two private housing sites and two affordable sites, and continued to advance the development of the villages.
"The acquisition of Dawn Homes at the end of the previous financial year significantly expanded the Group's land bank in size and into a new region – West of Scotland – as well as providing an established supply chain. In the first six months, Dawn Homes has performed strongly, continuing to grow in line with management's expectations.
"Springfield continues to evaluate opportunities to acquire land that the group considers attractive and complementary to its existing land bank. Most notably, as announced on 30 July 2018, the Group secured approximately 400 acres of zoned land in West Lothian, Scotland, to develop a 1,900-home site.
"Overall, the Group expects to report revenue and profit growth for the first half of 2018/19 in line with management's expectations and intends to declare an interim dividend for the period.
"Demand for housing continues to outstrip supply and there is ongoing support from the Scottish government for developing affordable housing.
"As a result, the board is confident of delivering strong growth for full year 2018/19 in line with management expectations …"
Springfield CEO Innes Smith said: "We are pleased to report sustained revenue growth across all of our business units and good progress with existing sites as well as securing new sites.
"Our Dawn Homes acquisition has proved very successful and the business is performing strongly …"

Invented more than a hundred and fifty years ago, the bicycle is still the best sold, most popular and sometimes even the handiest means of transport in the whole world.
Whether it is for leisure, for sport or for work, cycling is such a regular activity that, unsurprisingly, throughout the years many accessories, gadgets and innovations where launched and marketed to make the whole cycling experience more comfortable.
Depending on its use, owing a bike entails possessing adequate apparel, garments or accessories which make the cycling experience safer and more pleasant.
Aside from helmets, which are even compulsory when cycling in countries like Australia, or brackets, necessary to attach the bike to the car, other accessories were invented due the popularity of this vehicle.
One such example is the sophisticated mechanism some type of bike displays to increase their performance.
Ordinary road bicycles have only one gear whose ratio is fixed. However, many other types of bike from mountain bikes to recumbent bikes are provided with a shifting mechanism which allows to select the appropriate gear ratio for a matter of speed, efficiency and comfort, especially when facing a different levels of road climb uphill or while going downhill.
Also, while ordinary bike brakes may be rim brakes, whose friction pads are compressed against the wheel rims, hub brakes, in which the mechanism is contained within the wheel hub, now many types come with disc brakes, where pads act on a rotor attached to the hub. Disc brakes are especially common in mountain bikes, tandems and recumbent bikes compared to ordinary bikes, due to their increased power.
Throughout the years, the popularity of cycling has never decreased, not just as cycling is a green, means of transport which does not harm the environment with the release of carbon dioxide.
Cycling competitions such as the Giro d'Italia or the Tour de France are popular races which every year bring a lot of followers as well as they provide scope for researching further cycling innovations.
Smart innovations brought in by science studies count accessories such as smart helmets. Smart helmets display innovative designs (to both men's and women's taste) having innumerable features such as water or wind proofing, robust materials of construction, LED lights ability, may have built-in speakers or microphones and so on and so forth. Some smart helmets may even have a safety feature able to send out SOS signals in case that the helmet has hit at a great impact.
Habitual bike users would find integrated lighting systems useful when cycling in the darkness and may want to purchase other lights to increase visibility during a nocturnal bike ride.
Other innovations include wireless electronic shifting for mountain bikes which has already set to outstrip its traditional mechanical counterparts. Or also portable electric pumps, which are the any flat tyre's best pals.
All these features and benefits definitely come in handy for cyclist racing on the French Tour, but also do benefit habitual riders who venture out on long distance rides. For this kind of cyclist, it is also recommended to download cycling apps such as Strava, which allows them to monitor and analyse their whole cycling experience, leg work, while also functioning as GPS.
1) WhiteCrow Hub
Any experienced mountain biker knows what is like to cycle on softer tyres, which would offer more traction, and what is like when riding on harder tyres, which make it easier on a softer terrain.
As it is quite impracticable to stop and either inflate or deflate the tyres depending on the terrain, the WhiteCrow Hub comes extremely handy in these situations. It is a revolutionary bike technology allowing to adjust tyre pressure while cycling. It is a fully integrated hub which enables the best traction on any type of surface while optimising the tyre's contract-patch grip on the different terrains.
This technology deflates on command while pedalling, while it provides an excellent and efficient inflation ad any time, thus ensuring an increased comfort while riding, an optimal handling from handlebars to pedals and even extra safety provided by the low pressured tyres over rugged surfaces, which is one of the main causes of crashes.
2) Theft prevention
Another trouble annoying every biker is definitely having to leave the bike outside the shop before doing groceries and running the risk of your bike being stolen as it did not have a proper lock. With NutFix all these little nagging matters are solved. As most people lock their bike up leaving them standing upright, with NutFix the nut is fitted with a clever mechanism which releases the screw below it only when the bike is on its side, thus preventing any thieves from robbing parts (especially the sought-after wheels or seat) or the whole of the bike. Thanks to all its durable, high-quality stainless-steel components, these locks are a secure, smart and innovative way of solving an every-day problem.
3) Easy-to-carry and powerful pumps
There is nothing more time-wasting and vexing than having to stop on the side of the road to change a high-pressure tyre and having to pump it back up. That is one of the reasons why many cyclists use compressed, albeit disposable, canisters. The company Interbike has developed a brilliant and revolutionary idea, a pocketable battery electric pump, the miniFumpa.
This pump's portable design and features were thought in order to increase speed, to be simple to use, effortless and light to carry around. It contains a compressor design able to compress surrounding air at amazing speeds to fill the tyres, it uses brushless motor technology to provide incredible power and it is rechargeable through a micro-USB cable.
4) Measuring power
Modern technology has now brought extremely useful types of device mainly to improve performance of professional cyclists. One such gadget is the STYX Powermenter, a piece of gear fully embedded in the cycling cleat and utilising 3D force sensors in both cleats to monitor fully the power being transferred between the rider and the bike. It communicates the data collected with a standard bike computer or with a smartphone through the brand's own app or other cycling apps.
The STYX Powermenter is very practical as it mounts on any type of shoe with the standard three holes in the bottom. To provide a more complete reading of power measurement, the setup actually consists of two power metres and cleats, one for each foot and shoe (which has to be the same to provide relevant and exact outcomes).
5) The e-bike: a new era of cycling
Cycling innovation such as the invention and the subsequent spreading of e-bikes has made riding a bike even more common as it is an electric power-aided bike mostly using rechargeable batteries, thus being sort of a hybrid between a normal bike and a motorcycle.
In order to avoid urban traffic and the nuisance of finding a parking spot in town, many commuters would choose to use bike sharing, electric bikes (e-bikes), lightweight commuter or folding bike models that can be easily carried around to for practical reason and also to avoid thefts when leaving the bicycle around. Thefts are the main reason why any respectable bike owner or user would possess at least one solid bike lock (such as NutFix) or even a secure anti-theft system.
In 2018 e-bikes are no longer a sensational discovery, but a quite ordinary means of transport used especially by people who have no time or no energy to cycle a normal bike. This is because the majority of the e-bikes just has kits incorporating motor, battery and electronics within a while which can be just applied onto a regular bike, thus turning it into an electrical one. This power-aided bikes end up being impossible to pedal in unpowered mode, extremely hefty to carry around and extremely impracticable, and all this not necessarily when the power is switched off.
The Swytch eBike Conversion Kit addresses that problem by moving all the e-bike's components (battery and electronics) into an all-in-one clickable pack of a bracket mounted on the handlebars. this conversion kit makes it really easy to turn the bike into an electrical one; it can be applied to any type of bike, from road bike to beach cruiser.
All these features, gadgets and accessories are very much thought to make anybody's cycling experience more comfortable, more precise, safer and, needless to say, more enjoyable. We only need to wait and see what the next brilliant and useful cycling innovation is going to be and going to bring to our bicycle and overall experience.

Shake Shack
Shake Shack sprouted from a hot dog cart in Madison Square Park in Manhattan to support the Madison Square Park Conservancy's first art installation.
The cart was quite the success, with Shack Fans lined up daily for three summers.
In 2004, the bid was won to open a permanent kiosk in the Park: Shake Shack was born. This modern day "roadside" burger stand serves up the most delicious burgers, hot dogs, frozen custard, shakes, beer, wine and more. An instant neighborhood fixture, Shake Shack welcomed people from all over the city, country and world who gathered together to enjoy fresh, simple, high-quality versions of the classics in a majestic setting. The rest, as they say, is burger history.
ACU Signs is proud to serve a company that serves others so well, including us! Feast your eyes on the beautiful green neon Shake Shack signs we installed.

Bizarre Twist In Murder Of North Korean Dictator Kim Jong-un's Half-Brother
We've all heard the warnings on the overhead public address system in airports about not carrying a bag for someone else, a safeguard against being an unwitting mule for drug smugglers or terrorists. There's another warning for airports that some people evidently lack the common sense to arrive at on their own. It's a caution not to throw liquids into the faces of unknown persons just because someone hands it to you and tells you it's a practical joke.
It could be a lethal poison, you could be killing someone, and it could be the older half-brother of a communist dictator. That's the story the assailants of North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un's brother are telling. And there are indications that they may be telling the truth.
Kim Jong-nam, the older half-brother of Kim Jong-un, was murdered Monday at Kuala Lumpur International Airport in Malaysia. Two women, one of which was wearing the now infamous "LOL" shirt, were seen in surveillance videos, with their photographs then distributed around the globe the day following the attack. Two women splashed what is being described as a toxic substance "more potent than cyanide" in Kim's face. He died shortly afterwards, while en route to the hospital.
The women involved in the attack are presently being detained. One of them holds a Vietnamese passport identifying her as Doan Thi Huong, 28-years-of-age and a native of Nam Dinh. The other woman involved in the strange incident is 25-year-old Siti Aisyah. According to investigators, both women say they were led to believe that they were involved in a practical joke. If what they say is true, they are merely mules of sorts, unwitting participants in a murder that many believe was orchestrated by Kim Jong-un.
Reports were originally circulated that the poison was administered through some type of "poison pen" device administered by two female spies who fled the scene. It now appears, if this latest, almost unbelievable twist holds up, to have been one of the most bizarre murders, particularly of a political figure, of all time. The original theory poison pen theory is much more believable, but this is the story they're putting out there now.

Current location of the original terracotta unknown.
A plaster with patina with an unknown provenance entered the Petit Palais collections before 1906 (H. 47 cm./18 ½ in. inv. PPS00358.)
Another plaster with patina was given to the Louvre in 1906 by the daughter of the moulder Bertault (Orsay Museum, RF 1891.)
A large bronze edition, contract between Hébrard and heirs of Dalou, May 10th, 1906, no 30 (as "Head of a River", 4th category.)
Biscuit-ware edition by Sèvres manufactory.
Son of a glove worker, Aimé Jules Dalou was noticed at a young age by Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux, who committed him to entering the Petite Ecole ("Little School") in 1852 and kept close track of his education. Two years later, Dalou joined Duret's studio at the School of Fine Arts, but throughout his life considered Carpeaux his master. The young sculptor suffered under academic teaching at the Fine Arts School and quit very rapidly. He would, some thirty years later, refuse a professorial position which was offered to him there.
The beginnings of this sensitive young man who was lacking self-confidence were laborious. After four failures to win the Prix de Rome (1861 to 1865), he decided to live off of decorative sculpture, and produced models for a commercial bronze manufacturer. He subsequently worked for the Favière gold-and-silver smiths and the interior decorator, Lefèvre. Dalou produced large decorative works for the mansion of the Marchionness of Païva and the Hôtel Menier.
Jules Dalou met with his first success at the 1870 Salon with an Embroiderer. The State commissioned a marble version from him, but the Commune made it impossible for him to finish the undertaking. Instead the artist, his wife, and daughter took exile in England where he was warmly welcomed and stayed for ten years. Upon his definitive return to Paris in 1880, Dalou's success steadily increased with various Salon medals and a multitude of private and public commissions.
In 1890, Marguerite de Rothschild, Duchess of Gramont, who had known Dalou in London, commissioned a marble group from him to embellish the ornamental pool in her private mansion on the rue de Chaillot. The sculpture was presented at the National Society of Fine Arts exhibition in 1892 (no 1483), under the title The Espousal, but Dalou himself identified it as Crossing the Rhine. In fact, the artist associated two events connected to the story of the Gramont couple and their ancestors. On the one hand, the crossing of the Rhine by Armand de Gramont, Count of Guiche, who swam across during the war with Holland in 1672, and on the other, the symbolic crossing by Marguerite de Rothschild who came from Frankfort to join her future spouse.
The marble sculpture depicted a vigorous male nude lifting an equally nude woman in his arms, so as to carry her across the river. The latter was depicted as a male figure with a long beard and reeds in the place of hair. Although shoved behind the couple's feet, the river god nonetheless attracted everyone's attention. It was qualified by Maurice Dreyfous as a "first-class piece." When the Gramont mansion was destroyed, Dalou's sculpture went to the park of the Château de Vallière, built for Duke Agénor de Gramont at Mortefontaine in Oise.
When the artist died, the original preliminary terracotta sketch for the couple in Crossing the Rhine which belonged to Charles Auzoux, friend and executor of Dalou's will, was produced in bronze by the Hébrard foundry. In 1907, through the intermediary of the moulder Bertault, a plaster version entered the Petit Palais Museum, where the contents of the master's studio were conserved.
It joined the full scale preparatory plaster of the river god which was treated like a bust with a square base. The previous year, the river god plaster had been produced in bronze by Hébrard, in accordance with the contract made with the artist's heirs. It is not known how many examples were cast, but the locations of only two bronzes, including ours, are known today. Apparently, the complexity of casting this Head which is evident in the cracks and irregularities in the material prevented the intended reproduction, a fact which makes our work even more exceptional.
The sculpture is completely independent and finished. It is a powerful fascinating head, with concentrated tension and Dantesque expressivity in keeping with great Baroque and Antique statuary. The green patina chosen by Hébrard for our example – the second known version had a brown patina – emphasizes the casting accidents and gives it the character of an archaeological discovery without diminishing any of its incredible modernity.

It's that time of year again. The Department for Education (DfE) have published the results of some 16,000 state primary schools across the country.
And, as usual, the critics will once again call into question how effective these results are at providing a fair indication of how well a school is doing.
Do the tables place undue pressure on schools to get good results at the expense of creativity? Is there a more relevant way of presenting a school's performance outside of the measures currently used, and does this pressure filter down to the children taking the exams?
Every year the Telegraph publish a comparison table, allowing readers to view the results of schools across the country, and compare these results with local averages.
But what exactly do the full tables show?
The primary school performance tables show the number of Year 6 pupils taking SATs tests at each school, the average point score of each school, and the percentage of pupils getting a Level 4 – the average for the age group – and Level 5 – above average – in reading, writing and maths.
Does looking at last year's results provide a realistic comparison?
It's a good place to start, but each year's results should also be taken on an individual basis. Saying that, last year it was harder to compare results with 2013, following a decision by the then-Coalition Government to raise the target level that all schools must meet.
In 2013, the standard was 60 per cent, and in 2014 it was raised to 65 per cent – a move intended to drive up standards over time. However, despite this increase, the number of struggling schools actually remained unchanged.
What is expected of schools?
The floor standard requires schools to ensure that 65 per cent of schoolchildren achieve Level 4 in the 3 Rs (reading, writing and arithmetic) – the average expected for a child at age 11 – or satisfy separate pupil progress requirements. However, the performance tables also indicate the percentage of children scoring level 5, which would be beyond expectations for the age group.
Where can I see the results?
Using data published today, the Telegraph have created an interactive search tool (publishing today) that allows readers to search by region or school and then compare results against one another.
Each school's page shows you the percentage of pupils achieving both Level 4 and Level 5 in reading, writing and maths and compares this with the average in the Local Education Authority (LEA) and the national average. Subjects are then broken down individually.
An average points score is calculated by assigning each level a certain number of points – Level 2 or below is 15, Level 3 is 21, Level 4 is 27, Level 5 is 33 and Level 6 is 39. Totals are then divided by the number of pupils sitting the tests to provide an average.
What can affect a school's results?
While performance tables give an insight into academic attainment, a number of factors must be taken into consideration when truly comparing and analysing results.
Where a school is situated is one such consideration – particularly if the school is in a disadvantaged area where pupils may not have started their education at the same level as peers from more affluent backgrounds.
It's also important to take into consideration the size of the school. Results from smaller schools could see large variations over time, as the results from a single pupil will have a greater effect on the overall percentage.
Finally, changes within the school itself could have an effect on the results. Such as whether the school has recently become an academy and if there have been any changes in staff.
What don't the tables show?
Critics highlight the fact that the tables offer a very narrow measure of success, based on maths and English alone.
Writing in the Telegraph today, Andrew Mellor, head teacher at St Nicholas Church of England Primary School in Blackpool said that "parents would be shocked at what schools have to do in the name of 'good' education".
He continued: "In the 28 years that I have been teaching, I have seen Year 6 reduced from a year of learning, celebration and growth with a curriculum which is rich and diverse, to a year devoted to the cramming of mathematical facts and the development of writing and reading skills at the exclusion of other subjects. Every school, to a greater or lesser extent, will tell you the same story."
What about next year? I hear there are changes
Correct. From 2016 'Levels' will no longer be the measure used to grade pupils. Following the introduction of the new curriculum in 2014, the tests children take are being updated.
The new tests will be introduced for the first time in May 2016 and, as before, will measure reading, writing, maths, and spelling, punctuation and grammar; however, instead of Levels, 'scaled scores' will be introduced.
Scaled scores are intended to make comparing results over the years easier, as they can be adapted to reflect whether a paper is slightly harder than in a previous year.
More information on the new 'scale' will be released next year, and the actually scale set once the pupils have sat the test in May.

The Hawaiian Aloha Shirt & Hawaiian Dresses
The Hawaiian Aloha Shirt
The Hawaiian shirt (Aloha shirt) is
an international symbol of Hawaii
recognized around the world. It has
evolved over the decades from its
humble beginnings in the 1930's just
as like other fashion trends. There
are several types of Hawaiian shirts
as well as other Hawaiian clothing.
Here are some interesting facts you
might not know about the Hawaiian
The "First" Aloha Shirt
The term "aloha shirt" may have
started as street slang in the early
1930s to describe the growing number
of shirts featuring Oriental and
Hawaiian designs that were being
produced by Honolulu tailors.
Musa-Shiya, the Shirtmaker first
advertised the "aloha shirt" in the
Honolulu Advertiser on June 28,
1935: "Honolulu's Noted Shirt Maker
and Kimono Shop. 'Aloha' shirts -
well tailored, beautiful designs and
radiant colors. Ready-made or made
to order…95 cents up." By another
account, an advertising salesperson
from the Honolulu Advertiser and
Ellery Chun, the owner of the
King-Smith dry goods store, first
coined the term "aloha shirt." In
fact Mr. Chun officially registered
a trademark for his Aloha sportswear
on July 15, 1936.

Sugar : Not so fast my friend!
I have written before about blood sugar, but its such a huge concept that I wanted to take another shot at it. Sugar is a tough one to crack! Its in a lot of things we consume and the holidays make it even rougher as they kind of go hand in hand! So its on my mind a lot these days. I vividly recall my sugar filled diet days. Sugar was my drug! It was indeed like I was an addict! Cranky when I didn't have it! Exhausted when I had too much of it and ultimately using more sugar to get that lift! Even years after giving up refined sugars, I catch myself when in the presence of sweets, candies, cookies, cakes or whatever kind of sweet concoction it is to get in a bit of daze for a second remembering my long lost friend, sugar. Although, sugar is not my friend and has never been my friend. If he was, he would have cut me some slack and not wreaked so much havoc on my insides! If he really was a true friend he would have respected my brain! Its no surprise we all have these very same feelings about this white powder! Just watch this Ted video on how sugar impacts the brain.
One of the more entertaining commercials to me these days are some of the heartburn commercials. Not that I am poking fun at people with heartburn as I personally know that it is dreadful to deal with. But what I find amusing is just how product marketing hits us. The specific set of commercials I am referring to are the ones with people getting slapped around by their food. It is ironic to get slapped around by the food you had hours earlier mainly because most of us know just what we are eating and what is causing us grief! Yet we continue to eat it! I raise my hand, hell I raise both of my hands and claim I did this too to the point where I had a twelve round fight with it! Yes, I consumed and consumed and consumed the same things over and over that ultimately would have me in its vice for hours later. You have some choices to think about. Either you follow the crowd and buy into the many advertisements and take the antacids or acid blockers or you change some things up. Before you opt for the quick fix, there are some things you should be aware of first.
