The Battle for the next generation DVDs

The Facts

Sony leads an international group promoting the Blu-ray Disc.

Toshiba's group is promoting the HD-DVD format.

Blu-ray has more capacity, 50 gigabytes.

HD-DVD has 30 gigabytes, but is cheaper.

Sony has said its next-generation video-game console, the so-called PlayStation 3, will run on Blu-ray.

Toshiba recognizes a single format is best for consumers, but that doesn't necessarily mean executives are prepared to agree on a hybrid.

So, who will emerge victorious?

The Soundless Sound System

Elwood "Woody" Norris Soundless Sound System

It works by sending a focused beam of sound above the range of human hearing. When it lands on you, it seems like sound is coming from inside your head.

The emitter - an aluminum square - is hooked up by a wire to a CD player. There's no speaker, but when the pad is pointed at you, you will hear the music.

Norris' HyperSonic Sound system has won him an award coveted by inventors - the $500,000 annual Lemelson-MIT Prize. Norris holds 47 U.S. patents, including one for a digital handheld recorder and another for a handsfree headset. He said the digital recorder made him an inventor for life.

"Imagine your wife wants to watch television and you want to read a book, like the intellectual you are. Imagine you are a lifeguard or a coach and you want to yell at someone, he'll be the only one to hear you." he said.

HABEMUS PAPAM!!!!!

Cardinal Ratzinger of Germany elected Pope Benedict XVI.



But the new pontiff faces new issues: the need for dialogue with Islam, the divisions between the wealthy north and the poor south as well as problems within his own church.

"Dear brothers and sisters, after the great Pope John Paul II, the cardinals have elected me a simple, humble worker in the vineyard of the Lord," he said. "I entrust myself to your prayers," the pope said.

Pope John Paul II Was A Rockstar

While millions of people around the world are mourning the loss of Pope John Paul II and will remember him as the leader of the Roman Catholic Church, not many of us may know that the Pope was also a musician. According to a Google Ad spotted on Taegan Goddard's Political Wire, you can Listen to Albums and Buy Music by Pope Jean Paul II.The Captain had no idea John Paul had released music CD's. I was hoping his musical performances sounded like a crossover between The Sex Pistols and Bad Religion, but after having listened to samples of one of his CD's, I can say his music is nearly as exciting as going to church on Sunday mornings.At least The Pope rocked our world, in a good or in a bad way.

Al fin. Lastly. Endevour.

Pues se murio.
He died.
Le Pope is mort. Vive le Pope.

John Paul II, 1920-2005

yo no vi nada.

entre que el papa se muere o no se muere, los noticieros aguardan cual buitres en su puerta.
