Ant1’s new television drama series called ‘That Summer’ started airing on TV this October. Its story is based on the tragic events that happened in Cyprus in 1974.

She is reminded of the Turkish invasion every year on the 20th of July when she hears the civil defence sirens, and this is where her story begins. It is a very emotional series that awakens the past for many Cypriots that lived through those events but it also recreates events for many Cypriots who were not yet born when they actually happened.

My Fall Semester 2012 – A success story!
The fall semester finally started a few weeks ago. You may wonder why this semester is so different than all the others and why I am writing about it.
Well for me the whole year is going to be different. Usually here at Unic you are allowed to have 5 courses per semester unless you are in your final year, then you can have 6, and according to everyone with that amount of work it is very hard, especially in the Law Department. Apart from that you need quite a high GPA in order to be entitled to have an extra course. Continue reading

Mix it up!
Audio is more important than video. Imagine watching a movie where the video quality is a bit poor – with lines running through it, but the sound quality was amazing.
You would watch it no problem. Small sacrifice. Now imagine the opposite. The picture is clear but the actors cannot be heard and there is a loud buzz in the audio. Press stop! No way! Audio plays a large part in any production. Continue reading
