  • State of Subtitling 2011 Report
    State of subtitling access free Europe for all hard of hearing citizens - in EU rier 2011 Report reating a bar C EFHOH/2011 1 Subtitling in the European Union. Easier done than said..... Dear Reader, Articles 11 and 14 of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights confirm access to information and education as basic human rights. The EU has recently adhered to UN Convention or Right of People with Disabilities. Still over 50 million of deaf or hard of hearing European are deprived of basic human rights simply because they cannot hear programmes broadcasted on TV, they do not understand films in the cinema or plays in the theatre. These reasons have pushed The European Federation of Hard of Hearing People (EFHOH) to launch a pan European campaign in order promote subtitling in audiovisual media in all member states as the easiest solution to grant deaf and hard of hearing people full access to information society. During almost 10 years of our campaign we have gained valuable expertise on this issue which we would like to share with you by/thanks to this information leaflet. Our vision is the full inclusion of people with hearing loss in the society which will only be achieved by giving them full access to media and information. In our opinion 100% of programmes in public TV channels should be subtitled by 2020. We are aware that today we are far from achieving this objective. According to our own research access to subtitles varies strongly/considerably between Member states. We have also found differences in the subtitling access via various teletext pages, which is very confusing to an average user.

  • Biology Has Been Taught at Bristol – As Botany and Zoology – Since Before the University Was Founded in 1909
    Biology has been taught at Bristol – as Botany and Zoology – since before the University was founded in 1909. Bristol has made significant contributions to many fields, from animal cognition and medicinal plants to entomology, evolutionary Game Theory and bird flight – and the BBC Natural History Unit's proximity to the University has led to television careers for a number of graduates! In 1876, University College, the precursor to the University, appointed Dr. Frederick Adolph Leipner as Lecturer in Botany, Zoology and, amusingly, German. Leipner had trained at the Bristol Medical School, but taught botany and natural philosophy, later combining this with teaching in Vegetable Physiology at the Medical School. He became Professor of Botany in 1884 and was a founding member of the Bristol Naturalists' Society, becoming its President in 1893. Bristol today is proud of its interdisciplinary strengths and, among others, offers Joint Honours Degrees in Geology and Biology, and in Psychology and Zoology. A portent of these modern links is seen in one of the University's most notable early appointments, Conwy Lloyd Morgan, appointed as Professor of Zoology and Geology in 1884 and then – somehow fitting in service as Vice- Chancellor – becoming the first Chair in Psychology (and Ethics). Lloyd Morgan is most famous as a pioneer of the study of comparative animal cognition. He was a highly influential figure for the North American Behaviourist movement: “Lloyd Morgan's cannon” is a comparative psychologist's version of Occam's Razor whereby no behaviour should be ascribed to more complex cognitive mechanisms than strictly necessary. He was the first Fellow of the Royal Society to be elected for psychological work.

You type stuff, make tea and sweep things or you’re a runner, so that’s what I did for a company that made corporate videos. I went on to become a production assistant, researcher, director and an assistant producer and it was only after all that experience that I landed a job at the BBC, researching for Animal Hospital and then the Holiday farm in the Wye Valley near Monmouth project’.
