Adventure Series IV

If a tear in the space-time continuum were to suddenly rip open, two things would fall out: the Terminator and then the Surface Book quickly tumbling to the Earth behind it. From the snake-like hinge, the flat design and even down to the washed-out silver color of this laptop, everything about it just seems like it came from the future.

Milled from two solid blocks of magnesium, the Surface Book feels sturdy and has a most minimalistic style unto its own.

From keyboard deck to the palm rests, the entire interior of this laptop is one flat surface of metal, save for the large space reserved for the glass touchpad. Similarly, the screen lid is made of one uninterrupted slate of magnesium, with its only extra flourishes being a mirror-finished Windows logo in the center and a rear-facing camera.

Along the chiseled sides, you’ll find two flat edges that start from the top of the display and terminate at the tip of the palm rest. That’s not the only seamless transition.

Ford tells Trump his role as US president in a film

Harrison Ford has told US Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump that his role as the US president in Air Force One was just “a movie”.

Speaking to The New York Times recently, Trump praised Ford’s role as a heroic president in the film.

He told the newspaper: “My favourite was Harrison Ford on the plane. I love Harrison Ford. He stood up for America”.

Comcast announced this week that it has successfully tested the world’s first DOCSIS 3.1 modem in Philadelphia.

That probably sounds like a mumbo-jumbo to you, so let’s put it in simple terms. This means Comcast has figured out how to use its existing cable lines to deliver super-fast gigabit internet speeds without having to do major work on its current infrastructure.

Gigabit internet is broadband that delivers download speeds of 1,000 megabits per second (Mbps) or better. That’s at least 10 times faster than what you get today from your cable modem.

Usually, gigabit internet requires internet providers to install new fiber lines in the cities they serve. It’s an expensive, lengthy process, and cable companies aren’t always incentivized to invest that much in the technology.

But Comcast’s technology appears to be more promising since a lot of the upgrades can be done with software enhancements to its existing infrastructure. It also means Comcast will be able to offer gigabit internet to its customers a lot sooner than other cable companies can.

Comcast says it’ll start testing the new technology in more homes in 2016 and expand from there.

The breakthrough means a lot more for you other than faster internet speeds. And it’s not all good.

It’ll give Comcast the option to charge you more for a higher tier of premium internet service. And faster data speeds means customers are more likely to use more data each month, which plays into the company’s long-term strategy of charging you based on how much you use.

London bus stops embrace e-paper

Transport for London is trialling e-paper bus stops that can display real-time travel information.

Fitted with solar-powered panels, they show how long passengers have to wait for the next buses, as well as route maps and timetables.

Four bus stops have been fitted with the tech so far. Chris Foxx quizzed TfL’s head of technology Simon Reed about the innovation.

34 Dream-Worthy Bridal Accessories

The good news: You found The Dress. The one you’ve dreamed of, longed for. The other news: It cost more than you budgeted for (but was totally worth it.) The upshot: You’ll have to accessorize creatively—and cost efficiently. Brooke Danielson, Vogue.com’s Accessories Editor, who collected these 34 earrings, hair jewels, brooches, shoes, and bags for budget-conscious brides, advocates looking for the unexpected accessory that

“feels bridal without being quite literally so.”

Unlike a wear-once, heirloom-in-the-making wedding gown, any of these special, sparkly accessories—from J.Crew’s confetti sandal to Vince Camuto’s pearly clutch—can easily find a place in your wardrobe long after the honeymoon is over.

MY TRAVEL – Full movie

Our fifth hotel profile takes you to a tropical island. When you think Hawaii do you think Disney? Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa is right on the ocean’s edge on the island of Oahu.

street2

The resort is part of Disney’s Vacation Club (DVC). The DVC works as a timeshare division of the Disney resorts. DVC guests can stay in their own villas but you can still stay at the hotel without buying into the DVC. Currently the resort’s first two phases are open and a third phase will be opening in 2013.

While not a true all-inclusive resort, Aulani has many amenities you won’t find at similarly priced resorts. In an effort to be family-friendly, Aulani has Disney characters visit, Hawaiian stories and legends told around a fire pit, Disney movie nights, pool parties, scavenger hunts, lei making, sand sculpting, and of course learning the hula. Aulani isn’t just for kids. The adults will love the Laniwai Spa and its hydrotherapy garden with mineral baths, 6 different “rain” showers, and whirlpool jet spas.

Aulani has plenty of water to enjoy. There’s a giant beach tucked in a cove for calmer waves. You can rent kayaks, snorkeling equipment, paddleboards, or canoes. There’s also a manmade reef to explore. Don’t forget the pools! Waikolohe Pool is an 8200 square foot pool perfect for swimming and pool parties. There’s also a calmer pool with a pool bar, a wild stream, a lazy river, a water playground, 2 waterslides, and 4 whirlpool spas.

5 Places to See

Buenos Aires by flickr user Sebastián-Dario

Buenos Aires Large and in charge, this is the largest city in Argentina and the second largest in South America. The joy of this city comes from its delicious foods, high brow shopping, and never-ending night life. Mendoza On the other side of the Andes in what should be a desert, Mendoza is plush wine country. You can enjoy wine tours, cooking classes, or even horseback riding.

El Calafate by flickr user longhorndave

El Calafate El Calafate is the entrance to the Patagonia region where the glaciers are. You’ll want to take a bus or a boat ride to be able to explore the many differences in Argentina’s climate. Iguazú Falls Located near the border of Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay, this UNESCO World Heritage site is at least twice as big as Niagara Falls. You can view the falls from trails, helicopter, or even by boat. With over 275 falls you’ll have plenty to see.

Mar del Plata by flickr user everdaniel

Mar del Plata You can’t go to South America’s coast without seeing a beach. Mar del Plata is a very popular beach city because of its prime location. Make sure to get there early to avoid the crowds!

GEORGIA | hyper – travel

Zadar While there’s a lot of history in Zadar, I think you’ll really love how the old mixes with the new. Make sure to check out the Sea Organ and Sun Salutation. The sea organ is really a series of pipes that play music as the waves come in and hit them. Right next to it you’ll find the sun salutation, a big solar panel that collects sunlight during the day so it can display beautiful lights at night.

Dubrovnik The entire city of Dubrovnik is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The best area to explore are the walls of Dubrovnik. You can walk them yourself or see them up high from a cable car. Dubrovnik was one of the filming locations for the current season of Game of Thrones.

Pula Arena Located in a 3000 year old city, the Pula Arena dates to the 1st century and is one of just six major surviving Roman arenas in the world. It once held gladiators and now it’s a tourist attraction and public theatre space.

Museum of Broken Relationships Located in the capital city of Zagreb, the Museum of Broken Relationships is based around “the concept of failed relationships and their ruins.” It might sound rough but it’s fun to see and encourages visitors to share their own failures in artistic form.

Museum of Broken Relationships

Plitvice Lakes National Park The real beauty of the country, you can enjoy 6 interconnected lakes, caverns, caves, waterfalls, and trails at this national park. 1 million annual visitors can’t be wrong.

Stamen (fashion film)

This season, a wide diversity of fashion films provided evidence that the genre has matured.

LONDON, United Kingdom

This season, we saw a wide diversity of fashion films — from a gorgeously animated “Sky Watcher”

ffilm1 from Trussardi to the quirky charm of i-D’s “A-Z of the World’s Top Supermodels”—

evidence that the genre has matured well past its roots in moving fashion editorial and simple behind-the-scenes clips.

But in the end, as in seasons past, humour drove the best results. In our top pick, “Cover Girl,” an American Vogue short introducing the magazine’s February cover, international editor at-large Hamish Bowles instructs writer and actress Lena Dunham on how to pose. With a little help from models past and present, Dunham and Bowles snappily re-enact some of the magazine’s greatest cover poses in what becomes a hilarious dance. The film has been shared over 14,800 times on Facebook and generated such buzz that Vogue released a second video teaching viewers how to do the dance themselves. Apparently, fans also performed the dance for Bowles outside of the fashion shows this season.

Now, without further ado, sit back and enjoy BoF’s Top 10 Fashion Films of the Season. And don’t forget to let us know what you think in the comments below.
