Pour one out for Vimeo’s TV apps on Apple TV, Android TV, Amazon Fire TV, and Roku. The company announced on Thursday that it would no longer support the apps with security updates or tech support. Vimeo posted a message on its Help Center informing customers about the upcoming move. On June 27, 2023, Vimeo will cease support for its existing TV apps due to them being “no longer consistent with standards” as the company strives to improve its streaming experience. “We believe that our users looking to view Vimeo videos will receive a better ongoing experience by casting via our mobile app, enabling customers to enjoy Vimeo content on their TV,” the company said in its post. Vimeo will pull the apps from each device’s storefront and those who choose to keep the app around will not receive new updates or technical support. Instead, Vimeo is instructing users to cast its content from the streamer’s app on their personal devices to their television screens using Apple AirPlay or Google Chromecast instead. The Vimeo app will still be available on iOS and Android, making the process of streaming videos from the site somewhat easier. It is important to note

The Cigar Smoking World Championship organization called it the most anticipated qualification round of the season. Sweden prides itself with a few top names, including former world champion Henrik Kristensson, two time Swedish champion Mikael “Zeke” Zander and of course, the until recently world record holder Igor Kovacic, commonly known as “The Swedish Tiger”. Out of the three, last year’s qualification round, which was a Swedish/Danish combo held in Copenhagen, only featured Zeke for various reasons. This year, all three of them were going to go head to head for the title, but just like last year Kovacic didn’t turn up. Word on the street, or in the lounge at least, was it was due to a man cold. This we will probably never know. Anyway, the qualification was held at what is definitely one of the most spectacular cigar lounge location in the world. In the north tower of the steps leading up to the only remaining part of a 14th century castle in Helsingborg, lies the headquarters of the cigar association Garrarna, with a bridge-like terrace overlooking the steps, city, Öresund and even Denmark. Kristensson and Zeke positioned themselves at a corner table, as far away from the

JOSH GREEN, M.D. GOVERNOR DAWN CHANG CHAIRPERSON For Immediate Release:  May 31, 2023 FIFTY TO SIXTY CORAL COLONIES DAMAGED BY CINDER BLOCK LANE MARKERS Follow-up Assessment Made After Canoe Regatta To view video please click on photo or view at this link: https://vimeo.com/831939020 (KAILUA-KONA, HAWAI‘I ISLAND) – Sixty-pound cinder blocks placed in the ocean for a Hawai‘i Island canoe regatta last weekend caused a range of damage to approximately 50-60 coral colonies in Kailua Bay. This number is lower than what was reported earlier and is based on a closer analysis of photos taken during an assessment.  Two dive teams, from the DLNR Division of Aquatic Resources (DAR), spent Tuesday documenting and photographing damage. The Founders Regatta, put on by the Keauhou Canoe Club, was paused on Saturday when it was discovered that 16 of 28 cinder blocks had been dropped on top of live coral. Racing was allowed to resume after officers from the DLNR Division of Conservation and Resources Enforcement (DOCARE) did initial dives to photograph the blocks and GPS their locations for the DAR assessment.   As of yesterday, all but three of the blocks had been relocated to sandy areas. Those three blocks are located on

The sixth International Enjoy A Cigar Day is taking place today, on May 31, 2023. It is no coincidence that the day originally proclaimed by Cigar Rights of Europe and Cigar Rights of America coincides with World No Tobacco Day. It is important to highlight cigars as a cultural asset that, as a luxury and pleasure product, cannot be legally equated with cigarettes. The newly founded platform Cigar Rights of the World also supports these concerns. On this day, consumer organizations want to draw attention to the following: that the cigar is a luxury product, enjoyed by discerning adults as an indulgence, not a habit; that each premium cigar is a natural product; that the enjoyment of cigars can contribute to one’s personal wellbeing by offering moments of solace, contemplation and fellowship; that premium cigars, versus other tobacco products such as cigarettes, should not be treated the same way by law; that patrons of cigars, and producers and sellers of cigars contribute to their communities, support charities, and believe in the right to personal freedom; that thousands of jobs are maintained in agriculture, industry, and commerce (above all in countries that need support); that cigar patrons believe they should have

Cigar slow smoking history was recently made at a Time Chase event at the Green Room cigar lounge in Turin, Italy. For the first time ever an event connected to the competition featured only women.  “This is an incredible initiative, and we are thrilled to see more and more women participating,” Ivana Vrdoljak, Club Mareva Vice President, says. “The current world record holder, Klaudia Ide, is an example of how women may truly build and impact CSWC history. With this initiative, the Italian ladies have put the wind in women’s sails, motivating all ladies to participate in CSWC events.” According to the CSWC the participants proved to be remarkably patient as no penalties were given, and the queen of the competition was Milena Colafrancesco, pushing her cigar to an impressive 1 hour and 19 minutes. Runner-up was Maria Taravella, who managed to keep her cigar going for 1 hour and 14 minutes, followed by Barbara Cais at 1 hour and 08 minutes. “We can definitely expect more of these amazing women-only CSWC competitions in the future. It’s so exciting to see women making their mark in the cigar world and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. We can’t wait to

Although YouTube is the most popular video-sharing platform worldwide, there are other options available. There are various video sharing platforms besides YouTube that provide unique features, content, and communities catering to diverse interests and needs. In this article, we’ll explore 11 video sites that are better than YouTube and why you should give them a try. 1. Vimeo Even if you often frequent YouTube, Vimeo should be added to your video site rotation. The site was the first to support high-definition videos on the web, and while it does include a selection of user-generated videos, it focuses on high-quality content. I should also note that Vimeo also offers some TV series and supports 360-degree videos. The site features a simple search function that groups videos by category and channel. Don’t know what to watch? A selection of Vimeo staff choices that is periodically updated will help lead you in the correct direction. 2. Dailymotion Dailymotion is another video website like YouTube. It went live in March 2005, just one month later than YouTube. According to CSI Magazine, Dailymotion is currently YouTube’s most comparable competitor, with over 300 million monthly users. Millions of videos have been posted by both professional publishers and amateurs. On
