OK, so you couldn't get your manicured fingers on a "I'm not a plastic bag" tote, but that doesn't mean you can't have an eco-friendly, fashionable shopping bag. (If you don't know what I'm talking about, check out the links below.)
Designers were quick to come up with their own range after the popular Anya Hindmarch bag flew off shelves the world over. Here are a few options:
"Friends of Al" tote - Stay hip and promote awareness of global warming with the white and green canvas bag with magentic closure. It's $55, but for a good cause. Friends of Al will donate $25 to eco-friendly charities and $10 toward American Forests who will plant 10 trees per purchase. (www.haydenharnett.com)
Stella McCartney - A higher-end version for a few more bucks; it's made of organic canvas and is selling for $500 US
Marni - The grocery tote by Consuelo Castiglioni is selling for $843 US.
Hermes - The priciest way you can lend a helping hand to the environment through fashion: the Silky Pop bag is made of gorgeous red and pink silk, folds up to be smaller than a CD, and is available for a wallet-breaking $1,225 CAD.

The Open-Door Bathroom Policy

The South
Originally published 01/24/2013
Garry Wills: Thoughts on the South
Garry Wills is Professor of History Emeritus at Northwestern. His study of Abraham Lincoln, Lincoln at Gettysburg: The Words That Remade America, was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1993....Humans should always cling to what is good about their heritage, but that depends on being able to separate what is good from what is bad. It is noble to oppose mindless change, so long as that does not commit you to rejecting change itself. The South defeats its own cause when it cannot discriminate between the good and the evil in its past, or pretends that the latter does not linger on into the present: Some in the South deny that the legacy of slavery exists at all in our time. The best South, exemplified by the writers listed above, never lost sight of that fact. Where are the writers of that stature today in the Tea Party South? I was made aware of the odd mix of gain and loss when I went back to Atlanta to see my beloved grandmother. She told me not to hold change between my lips while groping for a pocket to put it in—"That might have been in a nigger's mouth." Once, when she took me to Mass, she walked out of the church when a black priest came out to celebrate. I wondered why, since she would sit and eat with a black woman who helped her with housework. "It is the dignity—I would not let him take the Lord in his hands."

NEW YORK, April 27 /PRNewswire/ -- According to Deloitte's 2010 Consumer Food Safety Survey, while nine out of ten (90 percent) consumers believe food-related recalls are on the rise, or on par, compared with findings from Deloitte's 2008 Consumer Food Safety Survey, fewer people seem to be anxious about them. The results show 65 percent of consumers surveyed are concerned about the quality of the food they eat, a 17 percent decrease from 2008.
"The decline in consumers' concern for quality from our 2008 survey is due, in part, by their need to become more aware and engaged in choosing the products they buy," said Pat Conroy, Deloitte's vice chairman and U.S. consumer products practice leader. "Consumers view food safety and quality as important issues, and are looking to manufacturers, food companies and government regulatory bodies to drive communication, as well as tackle food quality and safety issues."
In fact, three out of four (75 percent) Americans surveyed feel that the manufacturers/food companies are responsible for communicating product recall information, followed closely by government organizations such as the Food and Drug Administration (73 percent), with less expectations from retailers (53 percent) and the media (51 percent).
Country-of-Origin Label Helping Selection Process
When making food purchases, Americans are doing more hands-on research and reviewing labels carefully, another indication that they are becoming more engaged in the process behind the foods they buy. Half (51 percent) of Americans say the new country-of-origin labels help in determining which fresh meat, fish, fruit or vegetables to purchase, and 45 percent say they would like to find out the country-of-origin on a Web site for all ingredients in a packaged/bottled food product. This may become of increasing importance to consumers, since the survey found that more than half (53 percent) of consumers frequently or always read the list of ingredients on an unfamiliar packaged or bottled food item; up from 50 percent in 2008.
However, although more Americans are reading ingredients, only four out of 10 (45 percent) surveyed say they understand at least 75 percent of the ingredients on a packaged food item, up slightly from 2008 (33 percent). Furthermore, 55 percent surveyed understand half or less of the ingredients, which is in line with responses from Deloitte's 2008 survey (59 percent).
Nutritional Facts Matter
A strong interest in nutrition has caused consumers to reference the "Nutritional Facts" box on packaged/bottled foods when making a purchase. More than half (54 percent) of Americans surveyed frequently or always read the "Nutritional Facts" box on an unfamiliar packaged or bottled food item and 26 percent occasionally, as compared to 15 percent rarely and five percent who never read it.
The top five nutritional facts that consumers report reading are: calories (71 percent), total fat (63 percent), sugars (50 percent), sodium (45 percent) and serving size (39 percent). Four out of 10 (42 percent) consumers surveyed frequently or always purchase packaged/bottled foods influenced by health-related claims, such as "low carb," "low sodium" and "heart healthy."
"Over the past two years, we have seen a significant shift in how consumers view the foods they purchase," said Conroy. "Though our survey still shows health and safety as the top two concerns facing Americans, the percentages have dropped and consumers are using their increased knowledge of food products to raise concerns around over-processed foods. Food companies are now dealing with an engaged consumer who actively seeks to understand the products they are looking to buy. This survey should be yet another red flag for the industry, as it shows that consumers are determined to be smarter about the foods they put on their table."

About the Survey
The survey was commissioned by Deloitte and conducted online by an independent research company between March 22 and March 24, 2010. The survey polled a nationally representative sample of 1,102 consumers. The survey has a margin of error of +/- three percentage points.

A review of FOX's new series "Houdini & Doyle," premiering May 2, 9/8c.
Since he started as film critic for the Chicago Sun-Times in 1967, and began covering movies locally and at international film festivals, Roger Ebert has met and interviewed countless movie idols, artists and unknowns -- some of them even before they became famous. There's hardly a major figure in the history of movies, from the last part of the 20th century into the 21st, that he hasn't encountered.
Time Out Chicago ran this story in its "Chicago Heroes" issue. The author, Hank Sartin, is a TO film critic.
Never mind the tens of thousands of film reviews, the worldwide following and the Pulitzer. For many, Roger Ebert's name comes with an "&" for years, it was Siskel & Ebert. Then it was Ebert & Roeper. But for those who know Roger well (and it's hard to know him at all without calling him Roger), there's been another partnership, one that has been getting more public notice during his recent battle with cancer. For the last 16 years, it's been Roger & Chaz. That would be Chaz Hammelsmith Ebert. In addition to being Roger's wife, she's the vice president of the Ebert Company (which handles Roger's varied business interests). And since Roger lost the ability to speak in 2006, she's been his public voice.

iPhone 5c, 5s launch on Virgin Mobile for $100 less than Apple pricingAs of Tuesday, prepaid carrier Virgin Mobile is now offering Apple's new iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c off-contract for $100 less than Apple itself sells the devices.
Virgin Mobile's site lists the 16GB iPhone 5s for $550 off-contract, while the iPhone 5c sells for $450 off contract. The same two devices on Apple's own store sell for $650 and $550, respectively.
Interestingly, the iPhone 5, which arrived on Virgin in June of this year, still sells for $550 off-contract.
Virgin revealed last week that the new iPhones would be landing on its network on October 1, and the availability of the devices on the prepaid carrier may reflect which models are in higher demand from Apple.
The gold iPhone 5s color variant, which sold out quickly on the device's launch date, was listed as Out of Stock for interested Virgin customers when sales of the handset went live. This suggests the carrier was not supplied with the gold color option, or saw such high demand that all stocked units were immediately sold.
Higher-capacity models of both the iPhone 5s (32GB and 64GB) and 5c (32GB) are listed as "Web Only" products, while the yellow color variant of the polycarbonate-backed iPhone 5c is also listed as Out of Stock.

Infomercial Pitchman Found in Contempt of Court
CHICAGO (AP) — A federal judge has found author and infomercial pitchman Kevin Trudeau in contempt of court for failing to pay a more than $37 million fine.
Friday's ruling was the latest round in a 10-year legal battle that began with a suit filed by the Federal Trade Commission. The regulatory agency alleged some of Trudeau's informercials included false and misleading statements about his books on losing weight.
A judge agreed and in 2007 fined Trudeau for violating an order to stop airing the ads.
On Friday, Judge Robert Gettleman said Trudeau failed to pay and ordered him to transfer ownership of companies and financial accounts to a court-appointed receiver. Trudeau's attorney, Kimball Anderson, said his client wants to cooperate but does not own the companies and does not have the money.

Review: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)
When we get to our Conclusion, we always find recent Ubuntu releases a little difficult to summarize. This is probably because each new release does not really bring major changes to the table anymore, rather they all seem to feel like just another update. In truth, that's all they really are. But when third-party Linux distributions continue to innovate and give their users something fresh each time a new release is delivered, we can't help but wonder why Ubuntu Developers can not achieve the same. Yet we can not quite put our finger on what Canonical are doing wrong. Essentially, they're not really doing anything wrong. They are just not really offering anything fresh, new or innovative anymore.

Faltering at Fenway
BOSTON - Daisuke Matsuzaka probably shouldered his way into the Angels' future Tuesday night — and the Boston Red Sox burrowed themselves deeper into the Angels' heads.
Pitching for the first time since June 19, Matsuzaka took a no-hitter into the fifth inning, a shutout into the seventh and combined with four relievers from the Red Sox's bullpen on a six-hitter as the Angels lost, 4-1, at Fenway Park.
Matsuzaka is auditioning to fill the fourth starter's spot in a postseason rotation. This week's series is a preview of the likely first-round matchup and it had all the hallmarks of an October visit for the Angels.
"It felt familiar. Let's just say that," said Angels pitcher John Lackey, who matched zeros with Matsuzaka into the sixth inning.
He then gave up a leadoff single to Alex Gonzalez, followed by a bunt single up the first base line by Jacoby Ellsbury that was fielded by Kendry Morales, who didn't make a throw.
"That bunt kind of got into a little bit of a Bermuda Triangle," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "John wasn't going to get to that. Jeff (Mathis) wasn't going to get to that. Kendry was in and busting, but where that bunt was and knowing the speed of Ellsbury, he tried to make a quick transfer and just bobbled it a little."
Lackey then fielded a bunt by Dustin Pedroia, but he bounced a throw that got by third baseman Chone Figgins, allowing Gonzalez to score.

Baggage Claim
Paula Patton stars in writer-director David E Talbert's romcom about a woman's desperate hunt to find herself a husband.
On Film4: 10 May 6:55PM
"It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses." Dan Aykroyd & John Belushi raise hell across America in John Landis' musical
It's a heckuva mess, The Blues Brothers. From the sci-fi tinged opening (which influenced Blade Runner' early scenes) to the carnage-heavy conclusion, John Landis' picture changes pace and direction like a liquored-up learner driver. Musical, comedy, road movie - it's anyone guess what it's meant to be. The one thing that's undeniable is that The Blues Brothers is a lotta fun.
The movie that launched a handful of so-so covers albums, The Blues Brothers has its origins in 'Saturday Night Live', upon which Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi liked nothing better than to slap on the shades and belt out workman-like versions of 'Soul Man'. The film opens up this idea. Indeed, Aykroyd's original screenplay ran to almost 400 pages, many of which comprised lengthy descriptions of Jake and Elwood's beloved steed, the Bluesmobile. As for the finished film, it sees Aykroyd's Elwood and Belushi's Jake putting their band back together in the hope of saving their childhood home. Oh yes, and there's also some stuff about Illinois Nazis and a crazed C&W outfit lead by the impressively bechinned Charles Napier.
With a coherent plot proving of little importance to Aykroyd and director/co-writer Landis, the emphasis here is upon cracking tunes and star turns. So we get Aretha Franklin belting out 'Think', Ray Charles showing us how to 'Shake A Tailfeather' and Cab Calloway swaggering through 'Mini The Moocher'. The Blues Brothers also features the late, great John Candy, Muppet man Frank Oz and such top musicians as 'Colonel' Steve Cropper - who co-wrote '(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay' with Otis Redding - and 'Mr Fabulous' Alan Rubin. As in the style of a rock concert, each celeb gets a chance to strut their stuff, with the much missed John Candy proving able of elicit laughs with an order for three orange whips.
And then there are the cars. Or rather the car crashes. The Blues Brothers takes carmageddon to a whole new level - Landis uncovering new ways to smash-up autos the way other directors might uncover fresh ways of lighting scenes. Like pretty much everything else in the film, you'll either find this carnage highly entertaining or irritatingly puerile. Odds are, if you like Landis movies such as National Lampoon's Animal House, you'll belong to the former camp.
Oh, and a quick word about the sequel, Blues Brothers 2000. For those with a desire to watch it , we can but paraphrase Richard Herring and Stewart Lee's summary of the film - Dan Aykroyd, John Goodman and a small child dance in the open grave of John Belushi while blood-stained dollar bills fall from the sky.
A damn fine mess of a movie.

4. 13 Crucial factors to consider when searching for the right binoculars
I could come up with 20 different things to consider before deciding on a set of binoculars. That might bore you to death though, so I narrowed it down to the following 13 crucial factors. I have sorted these in order of importance for your convenience. Magnification and Objective Lens Size are the number 1 and 2 factors. Make sure to consider these when you choose a binocular.
1. Magnification
The first factor you should think about, is the magnification of your binoculars. How do you choose the right magnification? Many people make the mistake of thinking that the bigger the magnification, the better the binoculars. That is most definitely not an accurate assumption.
If you are hunting in dense forest, perhaps a 14x or even a 19x would be better for your use. If you will be using the binoculars for watching birds, a magnification of 8x is a better option.
You are the one that knows exactly what you will be using the binoculars for. If you are looking for a good all-round binoculars, a 10x magnification should work well for you.
2. Objective Size
The size of the lens is the objective size. This second part in the typical 10×42 denotation tells us what the objective size is for a binocular. The value 10 refers to the magnification. The 42 refers to the objective size as measured in millimeters (mm).
The bigger the objective size, the bigger your set of binoculars will be. This means that the first thing we consider, is again, how will you be using these?
If you will be travelling with your binoculars, you won't enjoy lugging around a big, heavy set of binoculars. The smaller the objective size, the more compact the binoculars.
For travelling purposes, sporting events, or going to the opera, you might lean towards a smaller objective size. If you need a wider field of view, perhaps when hunting, or viewing panoramas, a larger objective size would suit you better.
You must be thinking: "Great, another non-answer!"
If this has left you more confused than when you first got here, you might want to stick with the all rounder of 10×42.
3. Exit Pupil
The exit pupil is the diameter of light in millimeters visible through the eyepiece. It is determined by dividing the objective lens diameter by the magnifying power. So a pair of 10x50s would have an exit pupil size of 5mm (50/10 = 5). 8x32s would have an exit pupil size of 4mm (32/8 = 4)
You can see this beam of light when you hold up your binoculars (eyepieces towards you). It appears as a tiny circle of light in each eyepiece. The circle of light is the magnified image as it exits the binoculars and enters your eye. The bigger the diameter, the better you'll see in dim light, up to the maximum diameter of the human pupil itself, generally between 4mm to 7mm, depending on age and available light.
Here is a good video that helps demonstrate and explain exit pupil:
Obviously then, the larger the exit pupil, the more light gathering capacity, and the brighter your bird image will be. If the exit pupil size is near the same size of our pupil, it will be more difficult to find images. For example, in bright light when our pupils are contracted to 2-3mm, those compact 8×21 bins (exit pupil = 2.6) are going to be difficult to use because our eyes are going to have to be centered exactly over the exit pupil to find our bird. Trying to follow an arctic tern on a rocky boat with a pair of compacts will have you barking at the buoys in no time! The image will also appear darker and not as clear.
For general purpose birding, choose a pair of binoculars with an exit pupil size of at least 4mm.
If you do most of your birding in shaded conditions (thick forests), dim light (owling) or on boats, choose 5mm or more.
4. Field of View (FOV)
The field of view refers to how wide an area is visible through the lens at a certain distance. It is a measurement taken at the 1000 feet mark.
For example, the Vanguard Endeavour 10×42 has an incredible field of view of 374ft. This means that with the Vanguard Endeavour you can see an area 374ft wide at a distance of 1000 yards.
A larger magnification means a smaller field of view. A smaller FOW might not be the right option if you will be viewing fast moving objects at a distance. For example, wildlife viewing and watching sports might be better suited to a wider FOW.
5. Close Focus
Close focus is the shortest distance at which the binocular is capable of providing a sharply focused image of an object. As a general rule, as magnification increases, the minimum close focal distance also increases. So yet another trade-off for you to consider: More magnification or shorter-distance close focus?
Especially of interest to birders because there will be times when you will want to see the detail of a bird less than 15 or even 10 feet away. Therefore, a good birding binocular should have a minimum close focus of 15 feet, 10 feet would be better. If you like to view other creatures up close such as butterflies, reptiles, etc. close focus is also an advantage.
6. Ease of Focusing
A good pair of bird watching binoculars will allow you to get a quick & sharp focus of your bird. This is important in because many birds are constantly moving around and you will need to be able to focus quickly. A good focus mechanism will focus from close to far with one full revolution of the dial or less. You don't want to have to turn the knob too many times in order to bring a bird into focus.
And make sure you get a pair of binoculars with a central focus that you can comfortably turn with your index finger. It should turn smoothly, without much effort. You will find that most birding binoculars do have central focus. Some models of binoculars have individual focus eyepieces which must be adjusted when looking at birds closer than about 30 feet, which is awkward and time consuming for bird watching. Again, you get what you pay for so you'll find that more expensive bird watching binoculars have finer-tuned focus mechanisms.
7. Lens Coating
The next crucial factor to consider is the lens coating. I would never go for any binocular that is not multi coated. The general rule is that more coatings on lens is better. These multiple coatings offer a whole bunch of benefits, some of these are:
- Promote superior contrast
- Increase in brightness and clarity
- Enhance light
- Keep images true to color
- Protects the lenses from scratching
- Makes lenses easier to clean
There you go, 6 reasons to go for multi-coated lenses.
8. Binocular Eye Relief/Eye Cups
This is an important element for eyeglass wearers. Eye relief is the distance measured in millimeters a binocular can be held away from the eye and still present the full field-of-view image in focus.
Eyecups are usually designed so that the eye relief is the right distance for non-eyeglass wearers, between 9-13mm. However, eyeglass wearers need greater eye relief to compensate for the distance their glasses stand away from their pupils. The problem occurs when there is not enough eye relief, resulting in a narrower field of view.
You want to be able to use your birding binoculars without having to constantly remove your eyeglasses to look. That can cost valuable time when trying to spot a bird.
Some binoculars will have rubber eyecups that fold down to get your eyes/eyeglasses closer to the lenses, while other more expensive models will have adjustable eyecups.
As a general guideline, for those who wear thinner, closer fitting glasses choose an eye relief between 14-15mm.
For those who wear thicker, farther fitting glasses, choose 16-18mm.
Of course, your best bet would be to try out several bins & see what works best with your particular eyeglasses. It is still a good idea for non-eyeglass wearers to also try out binoculars for eye relief as well, to find the distance that works best for them.
9. Extra-low dispersion (ED) Glass
For the serious binocular enthusiast, ED or extra-low dispersion glass is a must. Is it a must for the everyday user? Probably not. Think of ED being the HD (high definition) version of binocular glass.
ED glass does vary in quality as there is no industry standard. A bino with good quality ED glass will reduce chromatic abberation.
Wait, what?
Chromatic abberation is BIG word. It reduces the difference in wavelength in the image you are viewing. Ever look through a binocular, and see a fuzzy outline to an object? We call this effect CA (chromatic abberation).
Bino's with ED glass will reduce this effect, for a clearer image with better contrast and high resolution colour.
10. Twilight Factor
The twilight factor refers to image sharpness and image detail in low light conditions. A larger twilight factor will result in a sharper, brighter image in low light conditions.
The picture below shows the difference between a low and high twilight factor bino.
My opinion is that twilight factor does not come into the final decision for most bino users. If you will be using your binocs early in the morning, or late in the afternoon, this could make a big difference.
11. Prism Design
There are two types of prism systems, porro & roof:
Porro Prism
Porro prism binoculars have a z-shaped optical path where the objective lenses are offset from the eyepieces, resulting in a wider set of binoculars.
Roof Prism
In roof prism binoculars, the prisms overlap closely and the objective lenses are approximately in line with the eyepieces. The result is a slim, streamlined shape.
Because of the pricier technology required, roof prism binoculars are more expensive than porro prism binoculars. You can get an excellent pair of porro prism birding binoculars priced around $250. To get the equivalent optic quality in a pair of roof prism binoculars, you would have to pay around $400 and up. So if you're on a budget, porro prisms may be your best option.
Remember though, that because porro prism binoculars are not as rugged and durable as roof prism binoculars, you may be better off in the long run with a roof prism if you can afford it.
12. Waterproofing
Waterproof optics provide protection against not only water, but also dust, dirt, cracker crumbs, etc. as well as internal fogging. It is certainly a nice option, especially for active birders. Waterproof seals are made with rubber O-rings and and nitrogen gas purging.
If you take your warm binoculars to go birding on a chilly morning without nitrogen gas-filled optics, they will most likely fog-up on the interior because of the quick temperature change from warm to cold.
You'll be bummin' when you can't see anything through the fog! And you never know…you just may slip when crossing that creek. It would be nice to know your bins are waterproof. It is also a plus if you live in humid climates.
13. Portability – Size and Weight
Now more than ever, there are an incredible amount of binoculars on the market. They come in every shape and size. It is crucial that you buy a pair that will suit your needs. You don't want to go travelling with a big and bulky pair. You don't want to be stuck with a compact bino with too little magnification when you are out hunting.
As with many of the other factors, you will have to find the perfect balance for your use. For example, some of the more compact designs, like the Canon 10×30 IS Ultra-Compact weigh in at just 21 ounces. The Canon only offers 10×30, while the heavier Vortex Diamondback offers 10×42 magnification.
Is that 3oz important enough to you to sacrifice some magnification? If you are carrying the bino's around in a backpack on a long trip, it might be.
5. Methods and test settings
The main method was watching under many different conditions but in familiar settings, everyday, if possible a couple of hours a day. I used a Gitzo tripod with a small video head and tripod adapters most of the time, complemented by handheld viewing. On excursions I prefered to take just two binoculars for better comparison.
Good test objects need to provide a high contrast, be stationary and have a huge variety of shapes, textures, colors and be at different distances. The plants in my garden and the surroundings provided all this, with light from early morning to late evening, and hopefully with some raindrops on a dull day. Of course I watched birds as often as I could, but never managed to watch the same bird with all five binoculars.
In the second period of reviewing, in autumn 2015, I dug deeper – more observations handheld, on dull days, and late afternoon into the darkness.
Here are some examples of tests and test objects that provided a lot of insights:
The whiteness and brightness test – White flowers are useful for this, in backlight, in frontlight, in the shade, in the twilight. Apple, rhododendron and Cornus nutalli blossoms. Great for checking out the bright parts of the tonality range.
The apple tree flare test – blooming apple trees against morning sun with a huge contrast of white blossoms and dark shaded bark and twigs reveal mercilessly if and where the flares and veiling glares turn up.
The dog test – my Hovawart is always dusty, with shining wet eyes, providing fine detail plus strong contrast, like yellow pollen in black fur.
The 3D test – flowers and the trunk of my dwarf pine are reference points for how three dimensional the images look. Guess how the modern flat field binos compare to the classic designs.
The red tulip test – how saturated are the warm tones? One word: Ultravid.
The skin tone test – family members indoors and outdoors. In cinematography, all camera and lens tests are first and foremost about skin tones, so a binocular with a yellowgreen cast will not make people look good.
The starling on a dead branch test – having the bird sing on the dead topmost branch, especially with overcast, white sky, is the best test for chromatic aberration.
There are 4 levels of testing which are increasingly demanding on the binocular:
- Handheld use
- Tripod mounted use
- Tripod mounted with Zeiss 3×12 booster, outside
- Tripod mounted, objective unmasked or masked, with 20mm opening, with Zeiss 3×12 booster and 2 inch Edmund Optics USAF 1951 glass negative, put on a Rex lightbox, indoors. Resolution test and visual contrast judgement.
The use of a booster has its own problems, but this time fitted quite well with my impressions from tripod mounted use.
My guess is that most manufacturers optimize their binos for handheld use. If they look sharp enough handheld, most customers will be satisfied. A closer look with boosters will reveal deficiencies which may disturb the tester but be irrelevant for ordinary use.
6. Where to Buy
You could step into your nearest Bass Pro Shops, Cabelas or even Walmart and grab a pair of binos. My recommendation is to stick with Amazon. They have all the information you need available. One of my favourite things about Amazon, is all those user reviews by people like you and me.
7. Conclusion
Finding the best binoculars under 1000 dollar can be more than a little bit of an appeal battle, but hopefully you find the information provided above to be useful in your search. Vortex have really put together an impressively balanced package, offering it at quite a compelling, affordable price. They also offer an incredible warranty that makes this deal unbeatable. This binocular has been specially designed to provide ultimate optical performance. If you're seeking a top notch binocular that is definite to offer great value for your money, the Vortex Optics Viper HD 10×42 Roof Prism Binocular is worth considering.

I hated the fifth episode (although the scene with the student council girl was funny). The sixth episode kick-starts the plot (er, kind of), but this show's story is seriously stuttering.
But hey, at least I'm watching the uncensored version.

Probably because no one else wanted to take on the monumental task of watching six episodes of this abomination and then summarizing their thoughts on this.

The quick summary with the + and - sums up the show pretty well actually. Of course, one reason to continue watching the show is what new WTF is going to happen next even though it's been toned down a bit in the last two episodes.
Episode 7 gets a little more interesting with the plot stuff. I feel like it's starting a little late though.

I'm not sure who the target audience for this show would be. Misogynists? Personally, I don't know of anyone who would be able to watch this show and enjoy it.
I was interested in the premise of this show, and where it might be going with regard to the people who have returned from these "otherworlds". But if the writers don't start showing us where they're going in the next episode, they're not going to have time to get there in just one season. And I can't imagine watching this for two.

I was nervous about being the one to review it, but no one else wanted it, so...*shrug*
That said, I started watching it for the premise, which I thought was a good one - I love the idea of enough kids getting sent to alternate worlds that it merits its own syndrome - and I kept watching in hopes that it would go back to that. Really, it was the shower scene that completely turned me off. (To be honest, I didn't get what was going on in the pee scene immediately - damn spin-y censorship things!) I really appreciate that Akatsuki has more of a brain than the average lead in this kind of show...I just wish he was less of a predator. And that it looked better. That would be nice.

|It was the lingerie episode that made me wonder why I'm watching this. I mean, two weeks ago I defended Akatsuki's behaviour during the "pee scene", even though I felt it was skeevy. But then episode five rolls around and he spoiler[gropes his "sister" and none of the three females (the two friends and the shop assistant) does or says anything. In fact, the attendant even commends him on his ability to judge bra sizes, as if he didn't just stick his hands inside his (as far as she knew) sister's bra and cup her breasts and make her moan. Even if he was doing it to fit the bra it was completely inappropriate, yet the attendant looks on admiringly. And we spent two-thirds of the episode inside that bloody changing room, I was sick of it.]

Is the target audience of GTA people who wish to be gangsters and like to destroy cities?
Shows like that say nothing about anything. They provide breasts, character designs and kinky situations that some people get a rise out of. If the plot is halfway decent, it's a bonus. If the characters have some depth, that may be a bonus for some as well.
