Privacy on your phone is pivotal for many. Siri Labs has just launched a smartphone for the bargain price of 14000 $.
Sirin Labs was founded in 2013 by Kazakh entrepreneur Kenges Rakishev, Israeli venture capitalist Moshe Hogeg (the same guy behind Yo and Mobli), and former McKinsey consultant Tal Cohen. The mission? To create the Rolls-Royce of smartphones — an advanced device that combined “the highest privacy settings, operated faster than any other phone, [and was] built with the best materials from around the world.” The company had raised a $25 million “seed” round a couple of years back, followed by a chunky $72 million round just last month.
Solarin promises “the most advanced privacy technology, currently unavailable outside the agency world,” and has partnered with KoolSpan to integrate chip-to-chip 256-bit AES encryption, similar to what the military uses to protect communications. It’s activated via a physical security switch on the back of the phone.
Solarin also sports a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor, comes with support for 24 bands of LTE, and promises “far superior” Wi-Fi connectivity than standard mobile phones. It also has a 23.8-megapixel rear camera and a 5.5” IPS LED 2K resolution screen.
TrendEngel thinks that this is one step too far and unless your name is Trump or Obama this is just money down the drain.
Sundance’s official summary of the film reads: “Wiener-Dog tells several stories featuring people who find their life inspired or changed by one particular dachshund, who seems to be spreading a certain kind of comfort and joy.” Indeed, that “one particular dachshund” features prominently in each of the four mostly unrelated vignettes that make up the film, although Solondz leaves it unclear how the canine lands with each of its strange owners. But Wiener-Dog doesn’t find Solondz going light to deliver an inspirational medley. Instead, he’s created arguably his most caustic film since Happiness. The cast including Trendengel favorites 
One of the highlights of this years great escape in Brighton was the show of Blaenavon. Premiering tracks from an incoming debut album, Blaenavon prove there’s far more to them than tender ages and fresh-out-the-printer A-Level certificates. ‘Hell Is My Head’ from last year’s ‘Miss World’ EP was the first hint at their gothier side, and ‘Orthodox Man’ from that aforementioned full length proves they’ve done well to succumb to the smoke. “

Right now, the company offers three individual lenses – Wide, Tele, and Macro – each of which attach to a “DSLR-like” case that turns your iPhone into a far more versatile camera setup.
Since its opening a year ago, SILO has operated a strict zero-waste model – including a package free supply chain, up-cycled furniture, locally sourced/foraged ingredients and a ‘nose to tail’ policy on meat. Modelled on pre-industrial food systems, the restaurant was founded on principles of a ‘respectful’ food culture – respecting the environment through a wholesome approach to food production as well as nutrition. SILO maintains total commitment to whole foods; milling ancient varieties of wheat for its in-house bakery, churning its own butter, and brewing its own botanical wine.
And no – the restaurant isn’t in London, New York or Pars but in the beautiful seaside town of Brighton. As 4-course meal won’t set you back much more than 30£ and is worth every cent. They have one of the most thoughtful vegetarian menus on the planet and if it comes to meat they are pretty damn good too. Why not combine a trip to Silo with a visit to the Fringe Festival, the Brighton Festival or The Great Escape? Just as thought…

Food concepts made in Switzerland with an international appeal are rare. But when TrendEngel discovered Rice Up! in the train station of Bern of all places it was obvious that they are on to something. The line was long and the people couldn’t wait to mix and match their rice bowl wit curry sauce, vegetables and all kind of tasty ingredients.
