Maltese photographer documents King Charles III coronation day

May 8 2023

Local photographer and videographer Albert Camilleri was in the United Kingdom on the newly crowned King Charles III’s big day this weekend, and documented the atmosphere around the historic moment live.

This was the first coronation many got the opportunity to witness as Charles’ mother, Queen Elizabeth II, was the longest serving monarch in history with over 70 years under her belt.

Camilleri captured various moments from the coronation day – from the parades, the jubilant crowd as well as some military jets zooming through the air as they left a colourful streak to symbolise the UK flag.

Now we’ll let Albert’s work do the talking for us. Did you follow King Charles the III’s coronation this weekend?

A company is paying someone $1K to watch all Fast movies

May 8 2023

A company by the name of FinanceBuzz is looking for someone to binge watch the entire Fast & Furious franchise to assess the damage done to automobiles across all 10 movies.

‘At FinanceBuzz, we love a good side hustle, and you should buckle up for this one’ the call for applicants reads.

This comes ahead of the upcoming release of Fast X on May 19th, and it is asking someone to watch more than 20 hours of the saga, during which the chosen one will assess and track damages from all the car crashes.

The team will then use the findings to estimate the insurance impact of the franchise’s reckless driving.

The ‘Fast & Furious Claims Adjuster’ will be paid $1,000 plus another $100 to cover the cost of any streaming fees, movie tickets and snacks.

‘As a bonus, you’ll get a healthy education about the value of family’ it reads.

‘At FinanceBuzz, we help people save money on their biggest expenses, including car insurance, and we wondered — what would that kind of driving do to your auto insurance costs? To find out, we need help taking inventory of the accidents in the movies. We’re also curious if the number of wrecks in these moves has increased or decreased over the franchise’s history.’

Applications are due May 19th and the candidate will be selected by May 26th and will have two weeks to finish binging the movie franchise. However, unfortunately for car-heads in Malta, the applicant has to be US based. But hey, this isn’t too late for a local company to do something similar.

Malta praised during largest cannabis conference for best model

May 7 2023

During the Cannabis Europa Conference in London, which was addressed by MEP Cyrus Engerer, Malta’s model and legislation for the personal use of cannabis was massively praised by the speaker.

This was the largest conference in regards to cannabis legislation, use and science, and was held in London to address the adoption of Malta’s model by other European Member states.

Engerer was the only speaker from Malta during the conference and, in a panel with the leadership of the European Parliament interest group on cannabis for personal use, spoke about how Malta was being considered as the role model in Europe for this legislation.

Engerer highlighted how the ultimate aim of the legislation was that no one is sent to prison for smoking a joint, in the same way that no one is sentenced for drinking alcohol, even excessively, which has far more negative implications on the user’s health.

Engerer explained that for the past months he was being consulted by a number of legislators in Germany on how the Maltese system works, which has led the German government to propose a law based on the Maltese model a few weeks ago, that will lead for Germany to become the second European Union Member State to legalise Cannabis for personal use.
