Another entry in my note-taking and thought-jotting series of posts on currently running shows. This episode focused on the bond between Shiro and Sora, revealing their past, and how they adapt to the world around them.
As always, the notes were taken while actually watching the episode, and rather than just repeating what you've already watched, elaborate upon it, assuming you've already watched the episode.
The "Gambit Roulette", of perfect plans is of course par the course for this show. It's not a question of /whether/ they'd win, but /how/. I mean, the whole point is victory is assured before the game begins, right?
I actually liked the flashback bits quite a bit, and it shows Sora and Shiro know they can't bend the world to their will, which is why they ended up hiding away from it, and are now in a world where they /can/ bend it.

Watchman by night, conman by day
Last night, it was a surprise when India chose to send in Ishant Sharma after Sachin Tendulkar's dismissal 12 minutes before stumps. But the nightwatchman did his job, and more. Yesterday he played most of the bowling from the time he came till the players went off the field - 15 balls out of the 19 bowled since his arrival yesterday.
Today, unintentionally, he may have done India another favour by getting out to a short, rising delivery. Australia went in with that plan afterwards for Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Sourav Ganguly, too, and the two received the gifts with ferocity and gratitude.
Wise move of the day
In the 128th over of India's innings, Dhoni disproved the law of equal and opposite reaction. Cameron White bowled him a gentle, flat delivery, but it was sent back to him about 1367 times the pace. White smartly didn't go for the catch. With 465 already given away already, four runs wouldn't have cost Australia a lot. But White did make sure his tour didn't end right there, because had he got his hands to the ball, only God could have blessed his fingers.
Zaheer - 3, Hayden - 0
Harbhajan Singh versus Ricky Ponting is history, for there is a new one-sided love story playing at a stadium near - or away - from you. Zaheer Khan has found a liking for Matthew Hayden, and the external forces have started conspiring to make the love materialise. Zaheer got some help from Asad Rauf in dismissing Hayden off the third ball of the innings. He dismissed Hayden in the second innings, too, lbw this time with one that might have just slid down leg. Again, in Hayden's third innings of the series, Hayden contrived to get out. The ball hit his pad, then his inside edge, and then the middle stump. Poor old Matty. He had spent more than nine hours on the field.
Mended when broke
In the fourth over of the morning, when Brett Lee tried to run Ishant out, he failed to collect cleanly a throw that was wide of the stumps. He split his webbing on the right hand in the process, and had to go off to get two stitches on the webbing. But when he came back later in the day, he seemed back to full fitness. He took a catch, falling backwards at long-ff, to dismiss the centurion Ganguly.
Oops, Rudi did it again
What he gave to Ganguly yesterday, Rudi Koertzen took from Dhoni today. When he didn't consult the third umpire before turning down an appeal for a stumping - Ganguly's foot was in air then - he gave him a chance to get to a hundred, which he dutifully did. But when Dhoni looked close to a hundred, he came face to face with the wrath of Rudi. When he was given out lbw off Peter Siddle, it appeared he had played the ball, and at any rate it hit Dhoni outside the line of off stump. What are the chances Dhoni would give Kumar Sangakkara a call in the evening?
There's no such thing as pain
Dhoni came out like a happy hooker today, dismissing everything short. But when Lee, bowling from round the stumps, tuck him up with a perfect short-pitched delivery, straight, and shoulder high, Dhoni played it out in his own original way. The bat stayed low, and seeing there was no way to move out of the line, he took the blow on his body. The scene, though, looked like a tennis ball hit a brick wall. And Dhoni went back to hooking.

Just so Harry Potter fans aren't confused, the Memphis Black Arts Festival isn't an opportunity for the followers of Voldemort to gather in Overton Park to have a picnic and plan the ultimate fate of Hogwarts. It's a celebration of Memphis' African-American performing artists organized by the Hattiloo Theatre's founding director, Ekundayo Bandele.
Bandele has frequently voiced his concerns that African-American artists in Memphis aren't as connected as they need to be and, as a result, they miss many economic and artistic opportunities. To compensate, he's organized a number of events designed primarily to introduce black actors to one another and to consider their place in history and as part of the contemporary Memphis arts scene. Last year, Bandele held his first Black Arts Symposium. This year, he's taking things a step further with a free day-long festival showcasing dancers, writers, actors, and musicians.
"The goal is to introduce the community at large to the diversity of our city and to forecast how Hattiloo will use its new space in Overton Square to give a physical platform for artists," Bandele says.
Arts organizations scheduled to perform range from the well-known Watoto de Afrika dance troupe to emerging groups like Out Loud Artistry, an interdisciplinary troupe whose members think artists have a moral obligation to serve their communities.
Theater fans can sample performances by Hattiloo and by Bluff City Tri-Art Theatre company, which was created to stage work by Memphis playwright Ruby O'Gray, a major force behind the creation of the new Women's Theatre Festival of Memphis.
Musical performers include singer-songwriter Barbara Lester, neo-jazz vocalist Jamille "Jam" Hunter, and Black Rock Revival, which plays blues-infused rock in the spirit of Cream and Jimi Hendrix.
The Memphis Black Arts Festival at Overton Park, Saturday, May 12th, noon-4 p.m. Admission is free.

An entrepreneur's dream is to build a multimillion-dollar business from an idea. Denver's Jonas Tempel has done it twice.
His companies seemingly have little in common. Factory Design Labs is an advertising firm for top-shelf brands such as Audi, The North Face and Aspen Skiing Co. Beatport is the leading online store for electronic dance music — the iTunes for disc jockeys.
But Tempel's imprint on each is unmistakable. Both focus intently on a small, high-end sector of a large market. They serve highly discerning customers, from around the world, who spend a premium for quality, cutting-edge work. "(Each) relies on being culturally relevant," Tempel said.
And both have grown through boom times and bust. Tempel expects their combined revenue to reach $85 million this year, up from about $2.2 million in 2004, Tempel said.
Not bad for a self-described computer geek with a penchant for graphic design and a passion for disc jockeying.
Tempel launched Factory Design a few years out of college in 1996 to make fliers for raves. The business evolved into an agency specializing in high-concept design. But Tempel didn't have the time or skills needed to land and maintain big corporate accounts, he said. He left in 2004 to start Beatport, though he remains Factory Design's chairman.
Tempel, a veteran DJ, launched Beatport with fellow DJ Eloy Lopez and promoter Brad Roulier. They raised close to $300,000 from former Denver Bronco Trevor Pryce and three DJs, including Bad Boy Bill.
Factory Design later invested $1 million, followed by a $12 million investment in 2007 by Insight Venture Partners of New York, which valued the company pre-investment at $50 million. German audio-software maker Native Instruments also is a part owner, Tempel said.
Beatport ushered in a digital revolution among DJs, allowing them to download new music anytime. Today the site has 1.8 million registered users, sells music in 131 countries and accounts for 80 percent of all electronic-music sales worldwide, according to the company. It employs 70 and has offices in Denver's Ballpark neighborhood, as well as in Germany and Japan.
Beatport benefited from iTunes' success, but Tempel doesn't want to compete against the online music behemoth. His site has intensely loyal customers — 65 percent are DJs — who rely on it to constantly search out and offer new electronic music from around the world. They pay $1.49 to $2.49 a track, depending on how new it is, well above what iTunes charges.
"We do 80 percent of a track's revenue in its first 14 days," he said. "We're effectively in the fresh-food business."
Beatport has turned down offers to sell because the terms or the timing weren't right, Tempel said. But that could change. "We will have to sell this business," he said. "It's my job as CEO to make it rain for somebody."

Elections Recap
Yesterday's municipal elections in two cities in which your Chamber has close relationships were interesting to say the least.
In Fort Lauderdale, Chamber member and newly elected District II Commissioner Dean Trantalis edged out former commissioner Charlotte Rodstrom (1,543 to 1,525). There is a slim chance provisional ballots could cause closer review.
Rodstrom had to give up the seat for her losing bid for a County Commissioner in November. Trantalis was previously on the commission, too.
In Oakland Park, Sara Guevrekian won in the race for Seat 1 over Steven Arnst, former mayor, by 89 votes. In Seat 5, Tim Lonergan won by a strong margin over Layne Walls. All six charter amendments in Oakland Park were approved dealing with everything from moving the election from March to November to ethics and voting conflicts.
Congratulations to all of you who participated in the election process.
Dan Lindblade, CAEPresident/CEO

If your garage is not the biggest, investing in an overhead garage storage system could be a way to generate a lot of space. The main drawback of overhead storage is that you will need to have a way of bringing it down to a useful level or a ladder system to get you up to the right height. Once you have that worked out, you will be surprised at how much extra space you can create.
The most popular overhead storage system is a system of fixed hanging racks, which drop down from the roof. They tend to be metal racks that attach to struts and are usually meshed to allow you to see exactly what you have up there. The only drawback is that the struts tend to come in a limited number of sizes, which will limit the amount of stuff you store. However, with a strong enough series of bolts, you'll be surprised at how much weight they will hold, making them a good option for power tools or spare car parts.
A cheaper overhead garage storage system option is to install shelving units close to the roof. It is cheaper because instead of requiring struts that have to spread the weight over the ceiling, you can rely on the increased strength of the walls. You can also vary the height of the shelves, which gives you greater flexibility of storage.
However, unless you invest in very deep shelving units, you are unlikely to be able to store big and bulky items. You may also run into problems if you are trying to store very long objects such as skis as you will need a large amount of shelving which will drive up the cost.
If you are looking for an overhead garage storage system that gives you good access as well as holding longer items like skis, then a series of dangling hooks will work for you. The hooks will allow you to store smaller items such as tools or toys while giving you easy access to them. Hooks are also ideal if you have a families worth of bicycles as you can store them vertically instead of horizontally. For the system to work, however, you have to rely on straps or holes in your items to hang them.
As with any good overhead garage storage system, you will always struggle to store everything you need with just one method. By using a combination of the above, you can make efficient use of your overhead space. For example, by dangling hooks from the racks you get to use space both above and below the racks. You just need to be careful when you are thinking about the amount of weight that you are expecting your garage ceiling to hold.
Unlike other home improvement projects, anything that involves screwing things into the ceiling is often the time to get professional help. Not only could you cause damage to the items you have stored if you do not do the job correctly, but you also risk causing permanent damage to the ceiling and roof of your garage.
You may need either someone who is connected to the business where you bought the storage units or a general handyman to help you with the job. They will have all the right tools and bolts for the job and it allows you to get on with the more important job of organizing.
Before you start buying overhead garage storage systems, you need to have an idea of what you are going to store up there. It is worth using this time to have a look at what is in your garage as you may find that you have been keeping things that you no longer use. This may help to reduce your costs, as you will need less storage space if you can get rid of some things.

Through the pines trudged a giant with thick, braided gray fur. Two long horns protruded from his goat-like head, both adorned with rings of patina-green copper. He was almost nine feet tall. His name was Kalju, and Kalju reckoned his fur thickest, his horns longest, his wit sharpest, and his magic strongest of all the shamans of the plains.
Laulja the youngling of the tribe Piilursa followed him, together with three other younglings that trained to be shamans.
Presently, Kalju spoke to Maimu, the spear-bearing female youngling, at who Laulja had shot furtive glances ever since he first saw her.
"You may be as tall as I am," Kalju said to Maimu, "but the spirits do not listen to you as they do to me, and thus the Wendel do not like you as much as they like me."
Maimu gave a sullen look of disappointment.
"For I am Kalju," Kalju continued, furry finger high in the air. "Prophet of the Wendel, and wise in all things." He stopped and pointed at a horseshoe-shaped mushroom that grew on the bole of a tree. "See that mushroom?"
Maimu pushed aside a beautiful long fur-braid and stared intently at the mushroom.
"That is a mushroom I have called the Kalju-Fire-Mushroom," Kalju said. "If you remove its cap, you will find a spongy interior that is flammable and excellent kindling."
Maimu stepped back, as if the Kalju-Fire-Mushroom might ignite any moment. "Very wise, o great Kalju, Prophet of the Wendel," she said.
"We must remember these things," Kalju said. "Knowledge is your greatest weapon." He wheeled to face Laulja and narrowed his eyes at him. "Laulja, repeat the names of the five mushrooms we have seen today."
Laulja straightened his back and recited the names: "The Kalju-Fire-Mushroom, the Kalju-the-Great-Cap, the Kalju-Favored-of-the-Wendel-Fungus, the Kalju-the-Prophet-Cap--" he hesitated for a moment and threw an unhappy glance at Maimu "--and the Laulja-is-an-Idiot-Mushroom."
"That's right," Kalju said. His eyes beamed with satisfaction. "And what is the Laulja-is-an-Idiot-Mushroom not for, Laulja?"
Laulja stared down at his feet. "It is not for eating. . ."
"Right again!" Kalju then tapped the trunk of a nearby tree with his staff. "Türann," he said. "What is this?"
The handsome youngling stepped forward. "That, o Prophet, is a Kalju-Evergreen," he said. "You have called it evergreen because while it sheds needles throughout the year, it never loses its color. Only when the needles touch the ground do they turn brown, which is why I humbly suggest we call them Kalju-Brown-when-down-Needles."
Kalju threw up his arms in happy admiration of his best pupil. "Kalju-Brown-when-down-Needles," he repeated. "It even rhymes!"
As the younglings muttered admiration for the clever naming, Laulja looked at Maimu. But she had no eyes for him; she swooned over Türann, who shot her a self-assured and bold glance.
Laulja snorted. . . silently. How could she want him? All he had was looks and knowledge of trees. Who was ever a great shaman by knowing which trees were always green? Or by knowing which mushrooms did or didn't give you the runs?
Maybe it was time for him to show Maimu his qualities. Maybe then she would change her mind. . .

To the parents of her patients on the children's ward, nurse Beverley Allitt was a friendly face and a shoulder to cry on. Someone who wanted the best for their kids. The reality was very different. Baby-killer Allitt was picking off patients one by one...
A child's death is always a tragedy. And though the hard-working doctors and nurses at Grantham and Kesteven Hospital in Lincolnshire did their best to save the patients on their children's ward, some sadly didn't survive.
Like little Liam Taylor, just 7 months old. He'd been brought to the hospital in February by his worried parents, and diagnosed with a chest infection. But soon after being admitted, he died of a massive heart attack. No-one, even experts in the field, could understand why.
Just weeks later, another patient died of an unexplained heart attack. Timothy Hardwick, 11, was taken to the same children's ward following an epileptic fit. Hours later, his heart had stopped. Like Liam, no cause could be found.
A month later, more tragedy. Tiny 2-month-old twins Becky and Katie Phillips were being cared for on the ward after a premature delivery. Despite this, neither was seriously ill. When Becky died suddenly, no-one could understand why. Katie fell ill too, with symptoms similar to her sister. Her life was saved but she was left with life-altering brain damage.
Finally, Claire Peck, 15 months, was admitted to the ward suffering with asthma. She, too, suffered a sudden heart attack and could not be revived.
Hospital consultant Dr Nelson Porter was concerned. As well as these tragic and unexplained deaths, nine other child patients had fallen ill with mysterious heart or respiratory problems – though their lives were saved.
An investigation was launched, the police were called. And a check of records revealed something alarming. The same nurse had been on duty during the time that each of the 13 victims had fallen ill – Beverley Allitt, 24.
Police gathered evidence and then made their arrest. Beverley Allitt didn't look like a baby-killer. She appeared caring and helpful to parents. The grieving mother of Becky Phillips had even asked Allitt to be Katie's Godmother, after Allitt had saved the child's life. Convinced by Allitt's act, Mrs Phillips had no idea the nurse was the very reason her children's lives had been endangered in the first place.
Tests carried out on the 13 victims showed extraordinary levels of potassium or insulin in their systems. Enough to cause a heart attack, even death. And the only person with the opportunity to administer the drugs was Beverley Allitt.
From the day of her arrest until February 1993 when she stood in the dock of Nottingham Crown Court, Allitt denied harming the children. But after a six-week trial, the woman that the Press called the 'Angel of Death' was found guilty murdering four children, attempting to murder another three, and causing grievous bodily harm with intent to a further six. Given 13 life sentences, she was told she'd serve a minimum of 30 years.
Still denying her heinous crimes, Allitt has offered no explanation on what drove her to hurt and kill her vulnerable victims. She's been diagnosed with Munchausen syndrome by proxy, a mental condition where sufferers inflict illness on children as a way to draw attention to themselves.
But the judge who reviewed Allitt's sentence said there was 'an element of sadism' in her offending, adding, 'By her actions, what should have been a place of safety for its patients became not just a place of danger, but if not a killing field something close to it.'
Beverley Allit is now an inmate at Rampton Secure Hospital in Nottinghamshire. It's unlikely she'll ever be released.
An inquiry into the tragedy pointed at failings at the hospital and said that if clues had been followed up sooner, at least one child's life could have been saved. Something that, to this day, must haunt the families of children that Beverley Allitt targeted…

Is it really that effective? Is it worth the time? How much on average can it add to your salary? Also, is it difficult to get students to tutor (numbers of students, from people who done it please) What is the average hourly wage that you ask for? Sorry for all the questions, just trying to do as much research as I can to make the transition easier!

If you have the right teachable(s) (Physics, Chem, Math, Eng, etc.) you can double your income or at least come close to it with private tutoring. With that said, technically private tutoring is illegal as you are not allowed to accept money for any jobs other than who sponsors you. For example, UAS sets up the tutoring at school for their teachers, collects the money and then issues you the balance at the end of the month. Last I checked teachers made 10KD an hour. The upside, you start as soon as school ends, it's in your room, and your can put in 3 hours and be home by 5:30. However, once established the private tutoring is more lucrative but has its own hassles. Currently, for HS I would say that most are charging 20KD, but there is still a range from 12 to 20. Most families will try and haggle or cut a deal if you come 5 times a week. That is the key. A steady family that pays weekly or daily and always wants you to come. Two families like that and you have tons of pocket money and savings for travel. Most families will arrange transport for you, if you have to take a taxi, make them pay. With that said, the downside is you are often tutoring into the later parts of the evening and if you are going between multiple locations you have to deal with traffic...hours of time lost. I used to tutor a lot, but since I had children I no longer do. Inevitably, if you are tutoring your teaching will suffer, there are many teachers who are running to clock out in order to make their extra money. As a first time arrival in Kuwait getting started is slow. It is all word of mouth but as the first quarter reports come out, tutoring picks up. There are some private companies like Sylvan and Oxford, again pay is lower, but less hassle. It's all up to you though. The tutoring life can get addicting (money in hand) but your life becomes consumed. Striking a balance is key. Good luck.

Brazing In Tennessee
HiTech Steel has a location for brazing in Tennessee. This metal-joining process is where two or more metal items are joined together by melting and flowing a filler metal into the joint. The filler metal has a lower melting point compared to the metal it is adjoining to.
Different Than Welding
Brazing is different than welding because it does not include melting the pieces being worked on. The filler metal is melted and flows into the gap between the metals you are adjoining and creates close-fitting parts by capillary action. The filler metal used for this process is brought to a temperature that is slightly above melting.
- This allows the filler metal to flow over the base metal (called wetting).
- It is then cooled in order to join the pieces of metal being worked on.
The advantage to using this technique is the ability to join metals that are the same or different while creating a joint that has immense strength.
You Can Trust Us
Our team at HiTech Steel is fully equipped to perform all of your metal treating needs. Our location in Tennessee is unrivaled when it comes to our brazing process, quality standards and unmatched customer service. Call us today to discover this for yourself!
We pride ourselves on our high-quality standards as well as maintaining both competitive pricing and a second to none delivery service.

What is a CSA?
CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture and is quickly become a popular way for consumers to buy fresh, local, seasonal products directly from a grower in their community. CSAs support local economy, responsible agricultural practices, and reduce the waste, expense, and reliance on preservatives and pesticides associated with excessive shipping.
What is Fair Trade?
While fair trade resources may not be local, they perfectly compliment our mission to enjoy responsible sustainable agriculture. Fair trade supplies ensure that the flowers they cultivate are just as natural, organic, and ecologically sound as the ones we grow on our own farm, and what they lack in proximity they make up for by supporting the ethical treatment of people and economies in the local communities were the flowers are grown.
What are slow flowers and the slow movement?
The Slow Movement advocates a cultural shift toward slowing down life's pace and embracing methods and systems that support whole systems. Changing our ideas of "efficiency," which has long been synonymous with speed and volume, to now include more big picture and long term parameters for success such as the broad effects and long term success of a method. Slow flowers, like slow food and slow manufacturing, focus on trading quantity for quality and takes into consideration the long-lasting effects of production and consumption. "Fast flowers" are often grown in vast, pesticide-rich global mono-cultures and shipped worldwide at the expense of the environment, the local growers, and the product itself. Slow flowers are grown locally, hand cultivated, and sold fresh and in season to consumers who bolster the local economy. The most interesting thing about the slow movement? It's not slow at all, in many cases it's simpler and "faster," but most importantly, it's just the right speed for the best possible product.

A man recounts how in 1976, he witnessed a USO beneath the boat that he and his father were in, as they fished the Sabine River. The close encounter magnetized their aluminum boat.
Hello, I am male, 43, father of 5 girls. I have started having very disturbing nightmares of an event that took place when I was a kid involving an underwater UFO.
First let me give a little back story. I am from Texas and lived on the Sabine River.
My Dad moved us out there when I was about 7 or 8. We had no electric or running water the first 4 years. We lived off the river and the land. I would wake up with my Dad early in the morning to go and check trot lines. A trot line is a line that has other lines attached to it with hooks and bait. This is to catch more than one fish at a time. I am sorry if you already know this, but so many people ask me what it is.
One Saturday we got up about 4:30 a.m. or 5:00 a.m. to check for fish. We got in the boat like always and started with the first line. We were about halfway when I noticed a light under the boat. It was small about 4" to 6" across.
My Dad noticed it too, he turn and yelled at me that I dropped the light. I knew I had not messed with the light, so I quickly scrambled around to find it. I found it and turned it on and shined it at my Dad. He was making his way across the boat to whip my tail, but stopped and look over the side at the light again.
I am not sure how it happened but the water around the boat lit up so bright it was like daylight. The light was about 15' to 20' around the boat. It came close to the boat and stayed still for a few moments. I remember it was cold that morning but at that moment it felt like it was around 80° or so.
Then bam, it shot through the water faster than I had ever seen anything move.
I watched for a few moments, by this time the day was getting a little lighter and I noticed a wake forming about a mile or so from the boat. It just rose up out of the water without a boat. It was a big wave like the ones barges make.
I thought it was cool but my Dad looked like he was going to be sick.
You have to understand something about my Dad, he was afraid of nothing, but he look like my little brother who was scared of the dark. I sat down and my father drove the boat as fast as it would go. When we got near the boat dock I was getting ready to tie the boat off, but Dad just drove the boat right up on the shore, which he forbade us to do because of cypress knee's.
He got up and grabbed the 10 gallon gas tank to bring to the house. It was almost funny. I remember thinking it is not that heavy, by now he had both hands on it and I could see the veins popping out in his arms, then it just let go and the tank came up hit him in the face and in the water he went.
I just looked at him puzzled as he dove past me grabbing my arm as he went. Now he was scaring me, this was so out of the norm for him I had to look a couple of times to make sure it was him. He dragged me to the truck, ran to the house to get the keys and we flew down the dirt road at a pace that almost killed us a few times.
We hit the highway and drove the 45 minutes to my Uncle Dales house in about 10 minutes, how he did not get pulled over and thrown in jail I will never know. He jumped out, so I jumped out he turned and told me to get my ass back in the truck we were not staying.
My Dad came out with my Uncle Dale who look just as puzzled as I felt. Dad jumped back in our truck and Uncle Dale followed in his truck. My Dad had to stop and wait for Uncle Dale a few times cussing louder each time. We finally get back to the river and Dad and Uncle Dale go over to the boat.
My Uncle Dale had been a radioman in the Air Force so I guess my Dad thought he would know something. I had to stand back from the boat because my Dad was beside himself by now, but I saw them throwing something at the boat, so I eased up to see.
They were throwing bolts at the boat and the bolts were sticking. They went back to the house to talk so I went over too the boat and started doing the same thing but when I tried to pull the bolts off I couldn't. I heard my Dad coming so I ran back to where I was playing at, so he would not whip me.
I saw them take the boat and our other boat out in the river. I watch as they sunk the boat with everything in it including the engine. I was shocked. my Dad later told me if I ever told anyone about this he would beat me till I was dead, and I thought he would. My wife was the first person I ever told and only after he died.
I would like to know if this has ever happened to anyone else. And the boat was an aluminum boat, which I learned many years later that aluminum is not magnetic. A lot of other weird stuff happened after that day, but I cant type it all.

While Toshiba officially called HD DVD dead back in February, the technology has lingered on in China. Before the end of the format war, Toshiba had begun working on 'CH-DVD', a special version of HD DVD for the domestic Chinese market. And this effort didn't die with HD DVD, instead it has been renamed CBHD – China Blue High-definition Disc. Now the first CBHD devices are coming to market with Shanghai United Optical Disc establishing the first CBHD disc pressing production line, and multiple players slated for retail, according to DIGITIMES. However, the format currently lacks any major studio support. It seems that, at best, it may receive domestic support.
Of course, the BDA hasn't just been standing by while this happens, shortly after CH-DVD was announced the BDA announced that they too were considering the Chinese codecs. And taking it a step further, unlike CBHD, which is a ghetto standard restricted only to China, the BDA is considering adding the codecs to the global Blu-ray specification.
And, despite predictions from HD DVD fans that it would 'never happen', the BDA has approved several Chinese CE vendors to produce Blu-ray players. And even more players have been announced recently at SinoCES. With most of their major CE vendors cranking out Blu-ray players for the growing global market player availability will rise, while unit costs fall. With a limited domestic market, CBHD will have a hard time competing with the falling BD player costs.
DIGITIMES cites lower costs as the main advantage for CBHD over BD. An existing DVD line can be converted to press CBHD for around USD$800,000, while establishing a new BD line costs around USD$3,000,000. And the licenses required to produce a CBHD player are around USD$8.10, reportedly much less than the equivalent BD licenses. However, a BD production line can take orders for export discs as well, making it easier to keep the line busy – and making money. A CBHD line is only good for domestic disc pressing. And the licensing costs for BD are expected to drop sharply in the coming years. Plus a production line can be shared between domestic and export players, spreading the non-licensing overhead costs over a larger production base.
If the BDA can complete the China-ized version of the BD specification to receive Chinese governmental approval for the format, it should easily squeeze CBHD out of the market just as it did to HD DVD.

Lutheran Social Services of
Wisconsin and Upper Michigan
Since 1974, Lutheran Social Services of Wisconsin and Upper Michigan has resettled more than 10,000 refugees from 15 nations. Hear one family's story and see how your support enables the great work our programs do to change the quality of life of those we serve.
When Bojana Bozic moved to the U.S. from war-torn Bosnia, LSS was there to greet her and her family and help them transition to their new home. Today, as an LSS colleague, she has come full circle, helping others in need.
For many of us, the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, which raged from 1992 to 1995 after the breakup of Yugoslavia, is a distant footnote in history. But for LSS colleague Bojana Bozic, it's why she immigrated to the United States in 2003 and where her path first crossed that of Lutheran Social Services.
Bojana was raised in Bosnia, and when she was five or six years of age, the civil war came right to her doorstep. Her home was burned down, and her family fled, moving often to remain safe. Her dad worked any job he could. Even as war-torn as their existence was, Bojana remembers her parents sheltered her and her twin brother and older sister from the desperate situation they were in. She didn't realize how bad things were. What she did notice, however, was that her dad never smiled.
"When we were in Bosnia and later Serbia," remembered Bojana, "my dad would come home, and he would be quiet and serious, and all I remember is we had to be quiet. He was stressed, depressed and worried."
Her grandfather also lived with them, and his brother had emigrated to the United States earlier after losing his own son to the war. After several years, he applied to have other family members join him. He requested that Bojana's entire family be allowed to come with her grandpa because they lived together, and the request was approved.
"We were told to go home and wait," remembered Bojana. Thinking they would leave any day, she didn't return to school, but the wait was longer than expected, and a year later, her family came to the U.S. Bojana was 15. They were greeted at the airport by their "Milwaukee" family and by case workers from LSS.
"When we came to the US, my dad started acting so different. He smiled all the time. I felt like I got my dad back."
The LSS case workers were both Serbian, and they knew the Serbian language. "They introduced themselves and told us they would take us to all of our appointments," recalled Bojana. "I didn't remember the organization, but I remembered Lutheran in the name. They helped us get resources and benefits."
They also assisted with the paperwork necessary to apply for Social Security benefits, food stamps and health insurance, and they also arranged for English language classes.
"We didn't know English. Nothing. Not one word," said Bojana. After just 10 days of living with their local extended family, her parents found an apartment close to their classes, and LSS provided furniture and dishes. After learning some basic English, her father quickly found work at Super Steel, a metals fabricator, where he continues to work today, and her mom at Eder Flag.
The children enrolled in school, and even though Bojana and her brother should have been juniors, her dad enrolled them as sophomores so they could learn English before starting college. Bojana's outgoing personality and willingness to try communicating without fear of embarrassment helped her master the English language quickly. She went on to graduate from Alverno College with a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and crossed paths with LSS once again when she applied for a job.
"I got a call from Holly Rogers, who later became my supervisor. When she said 'LSS,' it didn't ring a bell," admitted Bojana. When Bojana came home with the news that she had been offered a job, her mom reminded her of the family's connection to LSS.
Today, Bojana has come full circle – she is doing for others what was done for her and her family. She works as a service coordinator at Hampton Regency, a 120-unit independent-living facility for the elderly and those with disabilities in Butler, Wis. She coordinates many different services, including helping residents secure health insurance, Social Security, transportation to appointments, in-home care, medical devices and more.
"What I like best is I actually change someone's life every day for the better," said Bojana.
Most recently, Bojana was trained to be a case manager to help victims of human traffickers when they relocate to Milwaukee. "I know what it's like to go somewhere and have to start over," she explained.

... Which looks pretty darn similar to what happened in that iconic Close Encounters of the Third Kind scene and poster where young Barry Guiler (Cary Guffey) opens that door and gets abducted by aliens. See Exhibit A:
Sony Pictures recently unveiled that new poster for Close Encounters' 40th anniversary digitally remastered 4K edition which had a limited one-week run in theaters on Sept. 1. However if you missed out on seeing the anniversary edition in cinemas, it's now available on home release.
Stranger Things' latest poster tribute follows those for Stand By Me, The Running Man, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Alien, Firestarter, Evil Dead and Jaws.
Stranger Things returns to the Upside Down for a second season on Oct. 27.

You're out of the office and on the train and…opening your laptop?
Mobile working is key to our fast-paced world and not always avoidable.
1. Plan ahead
We know…planning ahead is a feature of 99% of business advice articles, but it's a particularly crucial strategy when working on the go.
2. Make a list
Make a list of everything you need to do and order it by priority. It's also a good idea to check that the place/s you'll want to work in have Wifi. If they don't it might be a good idea to invest in your own.
3. Communicate
Be sure to let the office know when/where you're going so your ordinary office duties are covered.
4. Be selective
Only worry about the essentials. When on the move, you cannot overestimate or worse, not consider at all the amount of time you can dedicate to your tasks. Social media can wait. Try to only deal with the crucial. You never know when your working time may be cut short and unlike in the office, you can't get the IT department to fix it.
5. Be equipped
Make sure you have all your tools with you. Maybe even dedicate a compartment in your work bag for all your plugs, wires and connectors so they can all jumble together and confuse you (but at least you've the assurance they're all in one place!) There's nothing worse than reaching for a charger you desperately need…that isn't there.
6. Less paperwork
Try to keep paperwork to a minimum. Unless it's unavoidable, it's better to work digitally. You run the risk of stressing yourself out with mountains of paper and as a result, losing it. Technology gives us the satisfaction of knowing everything is in one place.
7. Stay social
Try not to isolate yourself from your office. Your team members should feel like you're taking a week's break in Derry, not being drafted into an interstellar mission. Check in with them over Skype if possible, or even just shoot them a quick text to let them know of your work plans. You still want to keep somewhat up-to-date.
Let's face it, you'll find yourself in a lot of coffee shops when working remotely.
Find a quiet corner: Coffee shops are full of interesting people. Avoid them. Beware of theft and keep an eye on your belongings and pay particularly close attention to your technology. If something doesn't need to be in front of you, put it away.

Litter is a threat to wildlife and public health. If you want to make a difference in your community, take it upon yourself to pick up trash and waste around your city. Choose a location that you feel is most affected by litter. Then, gather the necessary materials, such as trash bags, a pick-up stick, and a safety vest. To make your pick-up day successful, sort the litter you find for recycling. Every little bit counts when you do your part to keep your area clean!
Method 1 of 3:
Choosing a Location for Litter Cleanup
1Pick up litter on the roadways to keep streets safe. U.S. roadways are littered with a variety of waste, with the most common trash items being tobacco products (cigarette butts), paper, and plastic. Highways, roadways, and side streets are all common litter sites because motorists tend to throw trash and waste out of vehicle windows. Litter on the streets can be a safety hazard, as waste can damage cars that drive over it, blow into motorists' windshields, or even catch fire.[1] X Research source
- Always use extreme caution when picking up trash on roadways– never pick up litter in the middle of the street. Wear safety vests and only pick up in the daytime so that you are clearly visible to motorists.
2Remove litter near transition points to keep businesses and public services tidy. Transition points include entrances to businesses or public services that prohibit certain items, like movie theaters, stadiums, or buses. The most common trash found by transportation points are confections (candy and gum) and cigarette butts. Heavily populated retail areas by shopping centers and convenience stores also create a lot of opportunities for littering.[2] X Research source
- Always ask permission from the store owner or manager before proceeding if picking up litter in front of a privately owned business.
3Look for litter in recreational areas while camping or hiking. Places where people congregate for leisure, such as parks and beaches, accumulate litter very quickly. Choose to pick up litter in these recreational areas to keep them looking nice and welcoming for locals and tourists– and to protect surrounding wildlife![3] X Research source
- Ocean trash is a serious problem that can not only affect that appearance of our public beaches but can also affect the health of people and wildlife. If you plan on taking a trip to the beach, be prepared by bringing a couple of trash bags along with you to pick up excess garbage.
4Prevent litter from polluting our oceans by picking up trash near storm drains. Storm drains are designed to drain excess rain from our streets. Excess litter can block the drains, causing streets to flood. When trash gets into the drains, it can end up washing up on beaches or in our oceans. The most common items found by storm drains are cigarette butts, food wrappers, and plastic bottles.
- Only remove surface debris from a storm drain using gloves or a rake. Never reach your hand in the catch basin or attempt to remove a grate.[4] X Research source
- Do not attempt to clear the drain when there is standing water. It can carry disease and be a breeding ground for mosquitos.
5Join a volunteer organization to clean up litter in your neighborhood. Conduct a Google search to find volunteer litter pickups in your area. Some cities conduct annual neighborhood cleanups in designated areas. You can also volunteer for roadway trash pickup programs such as Adopt-A-Highway or Sponsor-A-Highway. This is a great way to keep your city clean with the help of your neighbors and friends.
- Cleaning up litter in groups is recommended, and can ultimately accomplish a lot more cleaning. Advertise the event on social media to get more people involved.
Method 2 of 3:
Using Necessary Tools and Safety Materials
1Use a litter pick-up stick to pick up trash from the ground. One of the handiest tools for the trash removal is a pick-up stick. It is designed so you can grab the trash without bending down or touching it with your hands. Some sticks have a lever to open and close a clamp that grabs the trash, while others have sharp metal parts that pierce the trash and lift it off of the ground.[5] X Research source
- Look online to find the best pick up stick that meets your litter cleanup needs.
2Wear a reflective safety vest near roadways to increase your visibility. Safety vests come in bright fluorescent colors, such as yellow, green, or orange. Vests with reflective strips increase your visibility and help you stand out against your surroundings. It is very important that you wear this clothing at all times when collecting litter near roadways. The bright and reflective colors will alert motorists that people are working nearby.[6] X Research source
3Carry multiple trash bags to collect and sort all of the litter. When picking up trash, you're going to need something to put it all in. You may come across garbage or recycling bins, but in the event that you don't you'll need to carry multiple heavy-duty trash bags with you during your pickup.[7] X Research source
- Purchase a bag handle or holder online that will make carrying multiple bags more convenient.
4Wear sturdy gloves to protect your hands. When picking up litter, it is recommended that you wear thick, gardening gloves. If you come across something that your pick-up stick is unable to grab, you may need to pick it up with your hands. Gardening gloves will protect your hands from germs and bacteria or anything sharp.[8] X Research sourceAdvertisement
Method 3 of 3:
Picking Up the Litter
1Dress appropriately for the weather. Since you're going to be outside for a good percentage of the day, pay attention to the weather forecast. If the sun is out and you live in a warm climate, make sure to wear sunglasses and a hat to protect your face and neck from sun damage.[9] X Research source
- Always wear close-toed shoes to protect your feet no matter what the weather.
- Wear bug repellant to avoid mosquito bites while you're picking up litter.
2Use multiple bags to sort litter for recycling. When cleaning up trash, it is important to recycle in order to reduce the amount of waste in our environment. Many items are recyclable but should be placed in separate recycling bins. You can use 4 trash bags as you clean to separate litter into the following categories: metals, paper, plastic, and bottles.[10] X Research source
- Metals include things like soda cans, soup cans, foil, and bakeware.
- Paper products should include cardboard, magazines, newspapers, and juice cartons.
- Plastic should only be recycled if it is clean. If you find plastic bottles with liquid inside, even if it's just a small amount, throw it away in a garbage bin. Plastic bags also should not be placed in recycling bins.[11] X Research source
3Avoid and report hazardous materials. Certain waste products should be avoided when you're picking up litter, as they may be harmful. If you see any of the following items, do not pick them up. Instead, report them to the local council or landowner:[12] X Research source
- Needles
- Human waste
- Personal hygiene products (condoms, tampons, etc.)
- Electrical items
- Dead animals
- Bottles of liquid
- Unlabeled bottles
- Potentially dangerous chemicals
Community Q&A
QuestionWho is responsible for picking up litter?Community AnswerEveryone. Picking up litter is part of being a good citizen. If you are walking through a street and you see a bag floating through the air, pick it up and fill it with other trash you find. If you see a full bottle of water on the side of the road, make sure you have gloves on unless the bottle is empty, then pick it up then put it in recycling.
QuestionWhat is the best kind of container to carry the litter in? Where should I dispose the litter if I do not have a vehicle?DvortygirlCommunity AnswerThat depends on how far you go and how much litter you're finding. A five-gallon bucket can be a good choice. You can often get empty paint buckets for free. A sturdy bag is another choice, you can fold them compactly and carry them with you when you go out. It may be easiest to dispose of one or two small items in a public litter bin, if one is available. Parks, shopping centers, and transit stops are good places to look. For larger quantities, contact your city or local government and ask whether they'll send someone to collect bags. Some cities offer litter cleanup tools to volunteers, too.
QuestionCan I get paid for picking up litter in my neighborhood?DvortygirlCommunity AnswerRelatively few cities have programs to employ people picking up litter, but it doesn't hurt to contact your local government and ask. Many more cities have programs to support volunteers by offering equipment (such as reflective vests, gloves, litter sticks, bags, and buckets). Some have "adopt-a-(bus stop/street/area)" programs where they'll put up a sign. Some may be able to send someone to collect bags of trash you've collected.
QuestionAre we allowed to put dead dogs in bags?VermontGalCommunity AnswerIn the case of animal carcasses, I would recommend calling animal control, waste management, or the local roads department and asking for advice.
QuestionHow do I tell the difference between human and animal waste? Should I pick animal waste up?VermontGalCommunity AnswerUsually animal waste from dogs or cats (the usual animal wastes in urban areas) are smaller than what humans produce. However, a very large dog can leave a lot of waste. In any case, animal waste of any sort should not be removed with bare hands. Some sort of scoop or "doggie doo doo bag" will also be useful.
QuestionOnce we have picked up trash along roads etc., where do we take it?GamerGirl2009Community AnswerYou can put it out on the street with your home trash, or you can contact the city and ask them to pick it up. Recycling is also a good option, though you cannot recycle everything. Another option is to drive it to the tip.
QuestionWhere is litter most common? Where does it collect the most?Community AnswerCommon places for litter to build up include small wooded areas, beaches, storm drains, public woods, trails, public parks and fields, and on busy roadways. Wherever people frequent, litter tends to follow. Also remember that, unfortunately litter can be found almost everywhere, so you don't need to go very far at all.
- Use caution when working on roadways. Work during the day so cars passing are able to see you, and never pick up trash in the middle of the street.
- Be very careful when picking up sharp objects. You should always wear sturdy gloves, or avoid picking up objects with your hands altogether by using a pickup stick.
- Don't pick up hazardous materials, such as razor blades, syringes, animal carcasses, and condoms.[13] X Research source
- Don't pick up broken glass or plastic with your bare hands. If you do so, you may get cut. Wear gloves when handling such material.
- Always wash your hands after picking up litter. Bacteria thrives on food and garbage, which can make you extremely ill.

The Dendrobium D-1 started out as electric sport car concept sketched up by Singaporean product design company Vanda Electrics in the mid-1990s. Roughly two decades later, in 2016, those sketches were presented to Williams Advanced Engineering, who created a working show car for Vanda just in time for the 2017 Geneva Motor Show. There, the Singaporean team managed to secure a number of advanced orders with their flashy concept, and so that began the mission of putting the D-1 into production by 2020.
Now, the D-1 project took another step forward, setting up its base in the UK as the new company Dendrobium Automotive Limited. Its CEO is Nigel Gordon-Stewart, who used to be responsible for the sales and marketing of the McLaren F1 before landing at Lamborghini, where he worked on the re-introduction of the Super Veloce line before moving to Lotus.
Now, Gordon-Stewart says Dendrobium intends the D-1 to be "a British engineering tour-de-force:"
We are designing our own in-house all-electric power train and we plan to use our own power storage cells moving to Solid State as and when the technology is reliable and financially viable. We are developing unique cabling and connector systems as well as our own complete vehicle integration and ADAS hardware and software.
The headline figures include 1800 horsepower (hello Rimac C_Two!) and 1475 ft.-lb. of torque, with a weight target of 3858 lbs. The relatively low mass is down to the car being made mostly of carbon fiber, advanced composites and lightweight alloys.
The Dendrobium dream team also includes Jens Sverdrup, who's name will be familiar from Koenigsegg and Rimac circles. What's for sure is that Jens knows all about how to market a hypercar, and wastes no time doing so:
The construction of the D-1 is based on a unique Protocell carbon tub which possesses future adaptability for further generations of Dendrobium e-performance cars. Apart from advanced vehicle technology, the D-1 has enormous drama and presence thanks to our unique Bio-Aerial Locomotion door and roof opening system which was inspired by the Dendrobium name. A lot more details will be revealed over the coming months, not the least of which will be the D-1's impressive range and rapid charge time. You can be assured that the Dendrobium brand will become synonymous with the most exciting and technically sophisticated e-hypercars on the market and available globally.
To make the most of Britain's precious sunshine, the next prototype of the D-1 will debut at Salon Privé on the 30th of August, at the Blenheim Palace Cricket Pitch.

AA Agnostica is meant to be a helping hand for the alcoholic who reaches out to Alcoholics Anonymous for help and finds that she or he is disturbed by the religious content of many AA meetings.
AA Agnostica is not affiliated with any group in AA or any other organization.
Contributors to the AA Agnostica website are all members of Alcoholics Anonymous, unless otherwise indicated. The views they express are neither their groups' nor those of AA, but solely their own.
There is an increasing number of groups within AA that are not religious in their thinking or practice. These groups don't recite prayers at the beginning or end of their meetings, nor do they suggest that a belief in God is required to get sober or to maintain sobriety. If the readings at their meetings include AA's suggested program of recovery, then a secular version of the 12 Steps will often be shared.
If you asked members of AA who belong to these non-religious groups about their vision of the fellowship, they would probably describe it this way:
ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others recover from alcoholism. The only requirement for AA membership is a desire to stop drinking. There are no dues or fees for membership: we are self-supporting through our own contributions. AA is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution: neither endorses nor opposes any causes. Our primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.
AA Agnostica does not endorse or oppose any form of religion or atheism. Our only wish is to ensure suffering alcoholics that they can find sobriety in AA without having to accept anyone else's beliefs or having to deny their own.
The word "Agnostica" is derived from Chapter Four, "We Agnostics," of Alcoholics Anonymous, otherwise known as the "Big Book". When we use the word "agnostic" in relation to AA – or words like "atheist" or "freethinker" – we are simply referring to the specific wisdom of groups and individuals within the fellowship who understand that belief in a "God" (of any understanding) is not a necessary part of recovery from alcoholism.
The experience, strength and hope of these women and men form the basis for the pages and posts on the AA Agnostica website and are often a comfort and an inspiration for others in AA.

Actor Tom Cruise is back to work after a stunt gone wrong on the set of "Mission: Impossible 6." "Extra's" AJ Calloway spoke with Tom in London, where he promoted his new film "American Made," speaking out for the first time about what went wrong while filming "M:I6."
The heart-stopping footage of Tom slamming into a wall during a rooftop jump terrified fans and halted production on the next "Mission: Impossible." Tom broke his ankle, but he is doing "good." Tom explained, "It's, good, man, and thank you for the well-wishes and messages."
Cruise broke some news, saying, "I'm gonna start shooting in a couple weeks." He made sure the cameras caught him saying that, smiling and saying, "I was like, 'We better have been rolling on that.'"
Now, Tom is flying high in his new action thriller, "American Made," in which he plays Barry Siegel in the true story of an '80s airline pilot turned drug-smuggling CIA informant. He dished, "We had so much fun. It's just such a unique kind of adventure." He added, "It's just so outrageous, the story."
The 55-year-old, an avid pilot himself, even took members of the cast and crew on some pretty outrageous flyovers while filming, saying, "I gave them some flights." Before going zero-gravity, Tom said, "I asked them — I told them I was gonna do it."
Tom also performed a different kind of stunt in the film — the stripped-down kind, showing his bare bottom without the help of a body double! Cruise revealed, "I do my own mooning. I do my own acting, my own stunts, my own mooning… That's raw, that's untouched."
"American Made" in theaters September 29.
