  • Ezekiel Devos Week 7
    Sermon Series Weekly Devotionals Week of February 18, 2018 READ ch. 25, Judgment on the Neighborhood Bullies REVIEW. We begin a section of 8 chapters called “Prophecies Against the Nations.” Sounds boring, huh? It wasn’t to Israel, hanging on every word. For these were the neighborhood bullies. Since some of them were even blood relatives of ancestors Abraham (Lot: Moab) and Jacob (Esau: Edom), God had told Israel to play nice with them. But they had become mean bullies and anti-semites (25:6, 8, 12, 15). So God says their time has come. It’s a bit of good news Israel needs right now, for the Babylonian siege of their hometown has begun (24:1-2). Three years later (586 B.C.) Ezekiel will tell them that the siege has ended with Jerusalem’s total wipeout (33:21). In the 8 chapters between, God encourages his depressed people with the news that his plan to make Israel the head of the nations is still good—the nations will be judged, too. It’s significant that Ezekiel mentions seven nations (as do Jeremiah & Amos). Seven is the “number of completion,” dating back to the seven day creation. By using the symbolic 7, God is telling us that he will judge all nations hostile to Israel! Geography trivia: the four nations in ch. 25 go clockwise from 3:00 to 9:00. The original nations are extinct; today’s residents call themselves Arabs and are Muslim. MEDITATE. Your attitude toward Israel and the Jews is one of the most revealing things about you.

LIMITATIONS ON COPYRIGHT PROTECTION FOR FORMAT IDEAS IN REALITY TELEVISION PROGRAMMING By Kent R. Raygor and Edwin Komen* * Kent R.

LIMITATIONS ON COPYRIGHT PROTECTION FOR FORMAT IDEAS IN REALITY TELEVISION PROGRAMMING I. INTRODUCTION Television networks constantly compete to find and produce the next big hit. The shifting economic landscape forged by increasing competition between and among ever-proliferating media platforms, however, places extreme pressure on network profit margins. Fully scripted hour-long dramas and half-hour comedies have become increasingly costly, while delivering diminishing ratings in the key demographics most valued by advertisers. It therefore is not surprising that the reality television genre has become a staple of network schedules. New reality shows are churned out each season.1 The main appeal, of course, is that they are cheap to make and addictive to watch. Networks are able to take ordinary people and create a show without having to pay “A-list” actor salaries and hire teams of writers.2 Many of the most popular programs are unscripted, meaning lower cost for higher ratings. Even where the ratings are flat, such shows are capable of generating higher profit margins through advertising directed to large groups of more readily targeted viewers.

  • TV Formats in Europe
    TV Formats in Europe Given the prolonged advertising recession and the fact that several major titles have peaked, the TV formats market in Europe is showing remarkable resilience. The value created by the top 100 formats was $2,931 million in 2013 for 84 European channels across the 16 territories and 21 distributors, according to the TV Formats in Europe report. The 2013 figure was 3.3% down on the 2012 total, but up on 2011. The number of hours broadcast reached 28,386 in 2013, nearly the same as 2012. The UK is the TV formats leader in Europe – just ahead of France. The value created by formats for UK broadcasters was $600 million in 2013, down from $677 million in 2012. France recorded $599 million in 2013, up from $547 million in 2012. The UK, France, Germany and Italy accounted for 72% of Europe’s total value created in 2013. The top 10 broadcasters accounted for two-thirds of the total value created in Europe for 2013 – which means that the remaining third was shared by 74 channels. France’s TF1 ($332 million) led the pack again, followed by Italy’s Rai 1 and the UK’s BBC1. The total number of hours broadcast in Europe for the 100 formats was 28,386 in 2013; very close to 2012. The UK was the leader again, despite its 2013 total (3,935) being considerably lower than in 2012 (4,623). Romania took third place, having added 645 hours to its total in 2013. Published in March 2014, this 146-page, PDF-delivered report covers 100 major formats on 84 channels across 16 European territories; with extensive comparison tables.
