  • UCL 2023/2024 – MANCHESTER UNITED LOSE

    UCL 2023/2024 – MANCHESTER UNITED LOSE

     

    CHAMPION LEAGUE: Manchester United were unlucky when they narrowly lost   1-0 to Bayern Munich early this morning. Even more embarrassing was the defeat at home, the Old Trafford stadium. Manchester United completed a terrible Champions League campaign when they collected 5 points from 6 games for the Red Devils.

     

    Kingsley Coman scored the only goal in the 70th minute for the German champions, who had already secured their place in the last 16, thus denying United the chance to at least continue in the Europa League.

     

    United is currently sixth in the Premier League, and manager Erik ten Hag is under more pressure after a humiliating early departure from Europe’s premier competition.

    United’s Champions League hopes have been hit hard from the start of the competition as they failed to win three of their four games against Copenhagen and Galatasaray.

     

    It was only the fourth time an English club finished bottom of a Champions League group.

    Ten Hag’s United continued to be hit by crisis last Saturday when Bournemouth won for the first time at Old Trafford and took home three points with a comfortable 3-0 victory.

    The United manager recalled Raphael Varane to the starting line-up for the first time in almost two months.

    The French defender was surprisingly left out by Ten Hag, but is expected to play a key role in the coming weeks when Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw were ruled out earlier this morning with injuries.

  • Sentuhan Legenda: Dato’ M Nasir & Dato’ Hattan Berkongsi Pentas dalam Konsert Sifu Dan Aku

    Sentuhan Legenda: Dato’ M Nasir & Dato’ Hattan Berkongsi Pentas dalam Konsert Sifu Dan Aku

    Konsert ini adalah gabungan pertama yang menampilkan guru dan murid yang sudah berjaya dalam bidang seni suara selama lebih 38 tahun. Dato’ M Nasir, yang dikenali sebagai Sifu, adalah seorang penyanyi, pencipta lagu dan penerbit yang sudah menghasilkan banyak karya hingga menjadi ikonik dalam dunia muzik Nusantara. 

     

    Dato’ Hattan, yang dikenali sebagai muridnya, adalah seorang penyanyi yang juga banyak merakamkan lagu-lagu yang menjadi kegemaran ramai hingga kini.

     

    Dato’ M Nasir berkata, dia menganggap Konsert Sifu Dan Aku ini sebagai satu cabaran.

    “Saya anggap persembahan ini satu cabaran memandangkan hubungan saya dan Dato’ Hattan sudah lama. Dia menyerlah bakatnya selepas menyanyikan lagu-lagu saya dan kiranya menjadi anak buah saya dalam penerbitan dunia rakaman,” katanya.

     

    Menurutnya, keunikan konsert ini terletak pada gandingan mereka berdua pada satu pentas dan persembahan berskala besar.

     

    “Selepas sekian lama bekerjasama dengan Hattan, kali ini kami berada di satu pentas yang penonton akan melihat terbuktinya kombinasi kami. Saya pasti peminat di Sabah menantikan konsert ini,” katanya.

     

    Sementara itu, Dato’ Hattan berkata, konsert ini adalah penceritan daripada awal karier hingga ke konsert ini. 

     

    “Daripada mula saya berguru dengan Dato’ Nasir, belajar terbit lagu, menyanyi dan semua dari zaman dulu. Kiranya, konsert ini adalah klimaks pada perguruan saya bersama beliau. 

     

    “Saya mahu menjadikan konsert ini sebagai satu memori indah untuk karier seni saya kerana kita satu pentas bersama di dalam satu konsert yang ditujukan khas Sifu Dan Aku. Jadi, pada malam itu kami menyanyikan semua lagu hit.

     

    “Memang ini bakal menjadi pengalaman yang tidak akan dilupakan. Rugi kalau orang tak datang kerana penceritan itu saya dan M Nasir. Bagaimana saya mengenali beliau hingga saat ini. Malah, saya juga ada pernah menerbitkan satu album Palestin untuk Palestin yang diterbitkan pleh beliau,” katanya.

     

    Kedua-dua seniman ini akan menyajikan persembahan yang menyentuh jiwa dan meruntun hati dengan lagu-lagu yang mempunyai sejarah dan makna tersendiri. 

    Konsert Sifu Dan Aku adalah sebuah konsert yang unik dan istimewa kerana ia bukan sahaja menampilkan dua seniman yang berbakat tetapi juga menunjukkan hubungan yang erat dan harmonis antara seorang guru dan seorang murid yang saling menghormati dan menghargai.

     

    Konsert ini juga adalah satu penghargaan kepada peminat di Sabah yang jarang mendapat peluang untuk menyaksikan persembahan dua legenda ini secara langsung. 

     

    Konsert Sifu Dan Aku ini dianjurkan oleh Ochee Purnama Sdn Bhd dan HS Shazlicious Trading dengan kerjasama Borneo Excursions dan Angkatan Hebat Group. Sementara radio rasmi adalah Era Sabah.

     

    Dalam pada itu, Borneo Excursions adalah agensi pelancongan rasmi untuk Konsert Sifu Dan Aku yang menawarkan tiket konsert, pakej pelancongan, pengangkutan dan hotel dengan harga yang menarik.

  • Sony Electronics and The Associated Press Have Finished Testing State-Of-The-Art In-Camera Authenticity Technology, Aiming to Tackle Increasing Worries Regarding Counterfeit Imagery

    New In-Camera Signature Solution Attaches Digital Certificate to Photos at the Point of Capture to Certify Legitimacy

    Sony Electronics today announced the conclusion of a second round of testing for Sony’s in-camera authenticity technology with Associated Press. This in-camera digital signature enables for the construction of a birth certificate for photos, authenticating the content’s origin.

    Sony’s authenticity technology provides a machine-based digital signature, removing the opportunity for undetected manipulation at the start. The digital signature is made inside the camera at the moment of capture in the hardware chipset. This security feature is aimed at professionals wanting to safeguard the authenticity of their content and provides an extra layer of security to aid news agencies in their fight against falsified imagery.

    “While the rapid evolution of generative AI (Artificial Intelligence) brings new possibilities for creative expression, it has also led to growing concern about the impact of altered or manipulated imagery in journalism,” says Neal Manowitz, President and COO of Sony Electronics. “The dissemination of false information and images has real world social impact that brings harm not only to our photojournalist and news agency partners, but to society as a whole. We care deeply about this challenge and are committed to using our resources to help solve it. Through Sony’s work on the steering committee for C2PA (Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity), we have helped set the current industry standard for the tracking of editing and manipulation of imagery. Additionally, our in-camera authenticity technology has shown valuable results, and we will continue to push its development towards a wider release.”

    “Fake and manipulated images are a major concern for news organizations. Not only do they contribute to mis- and disinformation but ultimately, they erode the public’s trust in factual, accurate imagery,” said David Ake, AP Director of Photography. “We are proud to be working alongside Sony Electronics to create an authentication solution that can help combat this problem.”

    Sony and AP’s most recent field test was completed during October of 2023. In this month-long test, both capture authentication and workflow process were evaluated. To accomplish this, Sony partnered with Camera Bits – the company behind the industry standard workflow tool, Photo Mechanic. Alongside Sony and AP, Camera Bits created technology in Photo Mechanic that preserves the camera’s digital signature all the way through the metadata editing process.

    “We appreciate the significant challenge that manipulated imagery poses for our partners, and we are highly motivated to play a role in helping solve it,” says Dennis Walker, President and Founder of Camera Bits. “Photo Mechanic has been used by the photojournalism industry for 25 years and continues to evolve as the industry introduces new technology. We are committed to ensuring Photo Mechanic remains a trusted and authentic workflow solution.”

    Sony’s new in-camera signature and C2PA authentication is planned for release in a firmware update in the newly announced Alpha 9 III, Alpha 1, and Alpha 7S III in the Spring of 2024.
