Random information on the term “AMC”:

AMC Networks Inc. is an American entertainment company headquartered in 11 Penn Plaza, New York, that owns the cable channels AMC, IFC, WE tv, BBC America (with BBC Worldwide), and SundanceTV; the art house movie theater IFC Center in New York City; the independent film company IFC Films, and the horror-themed streaming service Shudder.

The company was originally launched in 1980 and formerly known as Rainbow Media Holdings, LLC, a subsidiary of Cablevision, but was spun off as a publicly traded company in July 2011. The company is majority-owned and controlled by the Dolan family.

When Rainbow was formed in 1980, it originally included Bravo and SportsChannel New York. As SportsChannel expanded by adding other regional networks, these also became part of Rainbow (see SportsChannel America). When SportsChannel was merged into Fox Sports Net, all of these networks except SportsChannel NY (then Fox Sports New York) were gradually sold off. Fox Sports New York was then transferred to the MSG Media and rebranded MSG+.

Random information on the term “SHO”:

Sho ( Tibetan : ཤོ ) is a traditional race game in Tibet. Its name is simply the Tibetan word for “dice”. It is traditionally played for money and by men, with two to four players – three being the most common. With four players, the usual variant is to play as two teams of two, with the partners sitting opposite each other.

The “board” is formed by a circular line of shells, typically sixty-four in number.

Each player (or team) has nine identical playing pieces, which are usually old coins. In any case, the playing pieces have to be stackable.
Two six-sided dice are used. They are placed in a wooden dice cup which is shaken and then slammed down onto a dice pad, typically made of yak leather stuffed with yak wool, which forms the centre of the board, within the circle of shells.

The first player to move all nine coins from the beginning of the board to the end is the winner.

The shells are formed into a clockwise spiral shape around the dice pad. The spaces between the shells are the playing positions which can be occupied by the coins. As the coin stacks move around this dynamic playing board, the shells are rearranged to expand or contract the spiral and the spaces between the shells, which means the game has a very tactile feel to it.

Random information on the term “STARZ”:

1080i (a.k.a. FHD and BT.709) is an abbreviation referring to a combination of frame resolution and scan type, used in high-definition television (HDTV) and high-definition video. The number “1080” refers to the number of horizontal lines on the screen. The “i” is an abbreviation for “interlaced”; this indicates that only the odd lines, then the even lines of each frame (each image called a video field) are drawn alternately, so that only half the number of actual image frames are used to produce video. A related display resolution is 1080p, which also has 1080 lines of resolution; the “p” refers to progressive scan, which indicates that the lines of resolution for each frame are “drawn” in on the screen sequence.

The term assumes a widescreen aspect ratio of 16:9 (a rectangular TV that is wider than it is tall), so the 1080 lines of vertical resolution implies 1920 columns of horizontal resolution, or 1920 pixels × 1080 lines. A 1920 pixels × 1080 lines screen has a total of 2.1 megapixels (2.1 million pixels) and a temporal resolution of 50 or 60 interlaced fields per second. This format is used in the SMPTE 292M standard.
