The League of Reason, established 2009, is a multi-author blog written by a collection of highly motivated people, and a community forum, blog and chatroom designed to promote discourse on topics such as belief, religion and science. The founder was a well known YouTube user by the name of AndromedasWake, and has been crafted into its current form (including all graphics) by CosmicSpork.
Their LeagueOfReason YouTube channel is the primary place to find highlights from the League of Reason Show, a fortnightly panel-based discussion show which began in June of 2010. The Show was started by several members of League of Reason, including its founder, as a spin-off aimed at promoting discussion and debate in a different medium.
Contrary to the opinions of some, League of Reason is not an organization and does not have any set policy or ideological stance. It is simply an open forum whose founders and moderators are committed to protecting the voice of reason from being censored. Initially, the site was set up as a discussion forum to combat a plague of censorship against proponents of science and skepticism, orchestrated by a number of religious YouTube users. Their tactics included the employment of votebots (software designed to autonomously lower the ratings of videos) and the filing of false DMCA claims in an effort to have critical material removed from the site.
The forum proved to be a successful and popular resource, not only for fighting censorship, but also for the discussion of a wide variety of topics. It flourished into a strong community for like-minded people all over the world.
In the fall of 2011, a group of users dug out the old YouTube channel and started a podcast called "The League Of Reason presents..." The podcast is a half to one hour long discussion by various members on a variety of topics, with guests joining the discussion on occasion. The LoR presents is in no way related to the earlier LoR show, it merely uses its YouTube channel.

Plum tops 3,000 career points, Huskies beat Wildcats
TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — Kesley Plum became the 12th player in women's college basketball history to top 3,000 career points and didn't seem to think it was that big of a deal.
"I mean, it's an honor to be part of that list," the Washington senior guard said, "but I was really concerned about the win. You know, the Pac-12 is tough. Any given night anything can happen and this is not a game we wanted to give up."
There wasn't much chance of that.
Plum scored 36 points and the No. 8 Huskies rolled past Arizona 90-73 on Friday night.
The nation's leading scorer at 31 points per game, Plum made 12 of 19 field goals and 10 of 11 free throws to lead the Huskies (17-2, 5-1 Pac-12) to their third straight conference victory.
Plum became the first player, man or woman, to top 3,000 points since the conference became the Pac-12 and the first woman from a Pac-12 school to do it since Cheryl Miller of USC in 1986.
"Everything we've ever asked her to do, she's done it, and she keeps improving," Washington coach Mike Neighbors said. "The records mean nothing to her, the wins do. But the fact that she's been able to do it, set records, while raising the level of play on our team and in our league, I think is the true beauty of what she's been able to do."
Arizona's first-year coach Adia Barnes couldn't help but be proud to watch Plum's performance. Barnes was an assistant at Washington before getting the job in Tucson.
"We have a ton of history," Plum said. "She recruited me in high school. We're from San Diego. I can hear her talking the whole game. She's just been awesome in my development as a women's basketball player. It was kind of a weird feeling to see her on the other side, you know, the bad guys, but it was cool at the same time."
Barnes was pleased her team played so hard throughout against a Washington squad she knows so well.
"It's good to see their success," Barnes said about the Huskies. "I wish Kelsey wouldn't have had so much success against us, but she's a great player. She's a tough matchup. We threw different looks at her and she did her thing. That's why she just scored over 3,000 points, why she's one of the best players in the country. She's going to be a great pro."
LaBrittney Jones scored 20 points for Arizona (10-6, 1-4).
Washington was without starter Heather Corral after she injured a knee in the shootaround Friday.
The Wildcats led only at 2-0 and were last tied at 8-8.
The Huskies were up by as many as 18 points in the first half and 25 in the second.
Washington led 46-31 at break, as usual thanks to their 3-point shooting. They made 8 of 19 3s, led by 4 of 5 from Natalie Romeo.
Arizona scored the first five points in the second half, aided by a flagrant one foul against Washington's big Deja Strother for an elbow to the face of Destiny Graham, and Breanna Workman's 3-pointer cut the Huskies' lead to 46-36.
Washington responded with a 19-2 run. A 3-pointer by Aarion McDonald followed by an inside basket by Osahor put the Huskies ahead 63-38 with 3:57 left in the third.
The Wildcats cut it to as few as 14 in the final minutes.
Neighbors said his immediate goal was to get Plum to reflect a bit on her accomplishment.
"My biggest challenge with her is to enjoy moments," he said. "I'm going to do my best to make sure she enjoys tonight as long as she will, which is about until we get to the hotel."
Neighbors was right.
Plum was already talking about Sunday's big game at No. 19 Arizona State.
"I have never beaten Arizona State in my career, she said.
Beating the Sun Devils, Plum said, "would mean twice as much as 3,000 points."
Washington: The Huskies were never in real trouble in what amounted to a tuneup leading into a game at Arizona State Sunday, a matchup of two of the seven Pac-12 teams in the Top 25.
Arizona: The Wildcats, among the five have-nots in the conference, couldn't match the Huskies' inside strength or outside shooting ability but kept up their big effort throughout.
Washington: The Huskies go to Tempe to face No. 19 Arizona State on Sunday night.
Arizona: The Wildcats are home against Washington State at noon on Sunday.

Who is Imam Mahdi
Signs of Arrival
A Battle in Mahdi's Time
Will Imam Mahdi's 1st appearance be in Saudi Arabia?
Is it compulsory that Mahdi becomes the commander of Arabs?
Isa and Mahdi – same or different person ?
Will Mahdi (A.S.) fill the entire earth (world) with justice and equity?
Some Major Clarifications
Will the First appearance of Imam Mahdi (A.S.) be in Saudi Arabia ???
There are basically some hadiths that indicate that Mahdi (A.S.) might come in Mecca. Those are as follows:-
Abu Dawood
If one follows the rule of hadith then 1st preference is given to sahih hadith. Hakim's hadith is a weak narration and hence Muslim's and Abu dawood's narration is given priority. Now as discussed earlier, if there are similar narrations mentioned in Sahah Sittah, then the order of priority is as follows- Bukhari, Muslim, Tirmizi, Abu dawood, Nisai and finally Ibne majah. Hence, here Muslim's narration is preferred over Abu Dawood's narration.
In Muslim, there is mention of "in this house a community (Mahdi's companions) will take refuge. there is no mention of the word 'kabah' or 'baitullah'. Hence, it is no harm to assume that the house might be kabah but if one guarantees that it is kabah only, then he is doing a grave mistake. Because prophecies are knowledge of unseen & before its happening, one can only assume what it could be but one can never say it by full confidence that it will happen in this way only. and if he does so, then he is confirming that he knows the unseen (refer knowledge of prophecies).
Further, as we know that the place of coming of Prophets are kept secret like Huzoor's (S.A.W.) migrative place was kept secret and since here only the word 'bait' is used, hence, it could be any house and moreover it is connected to 'Allah's vicegerent' (Allah's Khalifah), then it could be a house type mosque where he (Mahdi) and his companions will take refuge and then the opponent would come to attack which will be humiliated (refer battle of kulb) in baidah (plain ground) as the hadith follows:
There is one more hadith which might be connected to the above hadith, which is:
Here we come across that after the death of a caliph, Hazrat Mahdi (A.S.) will migrate from that city to Makkah. As it is already discussed in 'knowledge of prophecies' that name doesn't match in prophecies however, geographical condition matches. Also, sacred places are prophecised with the names of sacred places in Islam. There are five sacred places in Islam, namely; Makkah, Jerusalem, Madina, Egypt and Sham (these are the places where a number of Prophets and all revealed books have been sent). Hence, it may be possible that he may migrate to a place resembling Makkah geographically where he will form a society resembling to that of Madina. Thus making it a sacred place by establishing Hazrat Muhammad's (S.A.W.) sunnah in its original form.
So when we relate the above two hadiths then one can realize that Hazrat Mahdi (A.S.) will be from that city where death of a caliph occurs and then migrate to another city resembling Makkah geographically where he will form a society resembling to that of Madina.
Hence, one thing becomes clear it is not necessary that Hazrat Mahdi (A.S.) will first appear in Makkah.
So, it inferred that the common belief, "Mahdi (A.S.) will be from Makkah and people will take pledge at kabatullah" is not correct.
Is it compulsory that Mahdi (A.S.) becomes the commander of Arabs ???
Above hadiths tell us that Mahdi (A.S.) will take command over the arabs but one must know certain facts about "aasmani rahbar" (Allah's Prophet).
Allah always make promises with respect to a Rahbar in a general sense applied to the whole world like Allah says in the Quran that Prophet (S.A.W.) has been sent as a blessing to entire mankind. This verse tells that he is a blessing for each and every person on earth but it was in actual for those people only who accepted islam and not for those who rejected it. One can also say that Prophet (S.A.W.) will be blessing for all only if they would embrace Islam.
Therefore, this hadith about Imam Mahdi (A.S.) can be taken in this sense also, i.e., Allah would make him the commander of arabs if they would accept him or else it would get fulfilled over a certain group of people who would make him as their commander and which is indicated by one hadith which is as follows:-
Huzoor (S.A.W.) said: " Mahdi (A.S.) will fill a community with equity and justice after the community makes him his leader." (Ibn-Majah).
Hence one must understand that Allah always make promise in general applied to all with respect to His Prophet but when people don't accept him, then the same promise is fulfilled over a certain group of people who accepts him.
So it is a good assumption that Mahdi (A.S.) will become commander of Arabs but it is not necessary that he must take command over the Arabs.
Isa(A.S.) & Mahdi(A.S.)–same or different person ???
This is also one of the major doubts among the muslims that Mahdi (A.S.) and Isa (A.S.) are two different personalities and that Mahdi (A.S.) will come 1st and then Isa (A.S.). But there is not even a single sahih hadith that tells us that Isa (A.S.) and Mahdi (A.S.) are two different persons. Infact, there is a sahih hadith in Ibne Majah that says that Mahdi (A.S.) and Isa (A.S.) are same. The hadith is as follows :-
Huzoor (S.A.W.) said: " and there is no Mahdi (A.S.) except Isa bin maryam." (Ibn-Majah)
The above hadith clearly tells us that Mahdi (A.S.) and Isa(A.S.) are one and the same person. but some people who have this false belief that both are different reject this hadith itself and say it is weak or some even consider it fabricated.
One should know that a hadith can be considered as weak only if its narrator is weak or if there is a weak narrator in its chain of narrators or if it is present in weak hadith itself.
Now let us examine the above hadith:
First of all, this hadith is mentioned in ibne majah which is a sahih hadith.
Ibne habban is the narrator of this hadith who is considered among strong narrators.
Imam Shafi and Imam Ahmad bin Hambal has also copied this hadith from a series of sound narrators and considered this hadith correct. Imam Shafi and Imam Ahmad bin Hambal are the two imams of the four imams and were among the best generation of people on earth considered by this ummah and thus very close to Huzoor's (S.A.W.) time.
So now how can one consider this hadith weak !! people have no answer to this and they simply question its authenticity. They say it weak because they had this false belief that Isa (A.S.) and Mahdi (A.S.) are different. They also say so on the basis of some weak narrations. As discussed earlier, one cannot challenge the weak narrations against that of strong narrations. so here also Ibne Majah's narration is strong and thus cannot be rejected.
This Hadith directly says both are same. But there are many ways in which Huzoor (S.A.W.) has hinted that both are same. They are as follows:-
There is a hadith which tells us that Imam Mahdi would come even if only one day of qiyamah remains. That means his arrival is among the greatest signs of qiyamah but when we come across the sahih hadith describing the last ten greatest signs of qayamah, then there is mention of Isa (A.S.) but no mention of Mahdi (A.S.). Now the question arises that if Mahdi's arrival is a must before qiyamah, then why his name not mentioned in the last ten signs ?? This hints that Mahdi (A.S.) is same as Isa (A.S.) and thus his name is not there since Isa (A.S.) has already been mentioned.
Nowhere in the sahih hadith, there is mention of Isa (A.S.) and Mahdi (A.S.) in one place saying that Mahdi (A.S.) will do a certain thing while Isa (A.S.) will do another thing.
Also there is no contradiction in the description of Imam Mahdi (A.S.) and Isa's (A.S.) physical appearance. If Mahdi's (A.S.) nose and forehead description is mentioned then Isa's (A.S.) such description is not mentioned instead his height, hairs, face colour is mentioned. thus this also hints that both are same.
So Prophet (S.A.W.) has prophecised Isa (A.S.) by Mahdi (A.S.) in some places and then finally disclosed that both are same as mentioned in Ibne Majah's collection of sahih hadith.
Will Mahdi(A.S.) fill the entire earth(world) with justice and equity ?? (or) Will Mahdi (A.S.) be the ruler of the entire world ???
People believe that Mahdi (A.S.) will fill the entire world with justice and equity and rule the world for a span of 5, 7 or 9 years.. their belief is due to the misunderstanding of this sahih hadith which is as follows :-
In the above hadith, there is use of an arabic word "ardh" which means "earth" in general. So the people think that he (Mahdi) will fill the entire earth i.e. entire world with justice and thus be the ruler of the entire world. but this thinking only due to lack of knowledge of prophecies. Now let us examine the word "ardh" from Quran and find its true meaning.
In chapter(I) baqrah of holy quran, Allah used "ardh" for referring "mecca". the verse is as follows :-
"Verily, they wish to remove your feet from earth, but even if they do it then they would also not remain there for much time." Here earth means mecca and thus the rebellions of prophet (S.A.W.) wished to remove him from mecca.
Yusuf (A.S.) says, "make me the owner of the treasure of the earth" Here earth meant Egypt and thus he asked to become the owner of Egypt's treasure.
Allah says, " no one knows on which earth he will die". Here earth meant the piece of land or the region where a person may die.
Allah says, "only he is the lord of heavens and the earth". Here earth means the entire earth.
So from the above examples it is clear that 'ardh' can have four different meaning . it can be either a city (makkah), a country (Egypt), a region, apiece of land or the entire earth (world). So, if in the above hadith any one of the meaning gets fulfilled, then the hadith gets fulfilled.
Mahdi (A.S.) can either fill the entire world with justice or it can be a city, country or a region, so it is not appropriate to make judgement that he will fill entire earth with justice, however, if one assumes it then it is no harm.
Further, Huzoor (S.A.W.) said: "Mahdi (A.S.) will fill a community with equity and justice after the community makes him his leader." (Ibn-Majah). So the above hadith clearly tells us that word 'ardh' means a peace of land or region where Mahdi (A.S.) establish justice which accept him as their leader.

Former Home and Away star Johnny Ruffo has teased his imminent return to acting following brain surgery.
The Australian actor's life was turned upside-down back in 2017 when he was forced to have a 7cm brain tumour removed, before undergoing radiotherapy and chemotherapy following a cancer diagnosis.

"I'm getting back into work... slowly keep kicking on," he announced. "Now that I have the all-clear in the health part of things, I'm going to get back into television, back into acting, might even dip my toe into theatre – if the role is right."

Johnny has credited his partner Tahnee Sims with saving his life, after she urged him to visit the hospital when he complained of an excruciating migraine, which turned out to be the tumour.
"Without her, I don't think I'd be here today," he reflected. "She's phenomenal. She's the most incredible person I've ever met."
The 31-year-old played the role of Chris Harrington on Home and Away from 2013 to 2016, and had previously featured as a finalist on The X Factor Australia.

1 Sorry, I'd much rather be gay than sleep with you just to prove I wasn't.
2 My little secret is that every once in a while, I'll drive to the yogurt store and sit and eat it in the car.
3 I never thought I would live Kimberly Shaw down. So the fact that I've got another character, very different, under my belt is great.
4 I'm really thrilled that I met someone that I want to spend the rest of my life with.
5 I think beauty comes from being happy and connected to the people we love.
6 [on Madonna] We used to swim at the same pool. She'd get out and put all this jewelry on - and I'd go home with my wet hair. (In Style magazine, September 2006)
7 [on the huge success of Desperate Housewives (2004)] The show has only been on, for like, five minutes; give it some time to settle in.

4 Missed seven episodes of Desperate Housewives (2004), near the end of the 2006-2007 season, due to her maternity leave.
5 Was considered for the role of Madeleine White in Inside Man (2006), but was not able to due to her commitment to the television series Desperate Housewives (2004). Jodie Foster got the role.

11 During a 2005 interview with the Desperate Housewives (2004) stars, she was visibly delighted when Jamie Theakston pronounced her name as "Mar-see-ah". Cross turned to her co-star, Eva Longoria, and stated that she loves the way British people pronounce her name. It was revealed that although most Americans called her "Marsha", her co-star Longoria calls her "Mar-see-ah".

I know this was a while ago now, but I've been trying to find pics or footage of Michael at this event. Apparently he was supposed to be attending but the only thing I could find was panel footage of Brain, Xenia, Ellen and Jeff - no Michael to be seen!
Did he go or did he cancel?
I also found an interesting podcast interview with him, which I haven't spotted before!

I did that interview, but the person that brought the video camera fucked it up and there was no audio. There is no footage of it available to anyone.
The dead do not squeeze and please....

The interview that I found is an audio one. He mentions you and answers one of your questions. Think it might have been a radio interview (?) Don't think it was done at TD, but it could've been.
Not sure if it's on MM.com (probably is, but I've somehow missed it!) :-)
THe audio interview was the tony tellado sci fi radio interview, I was able to submit a question, it had nothing to do with TD. There is no MM interview footage from TD at all. End of subject.

The podcast that Tony Tellado had on his site has been taken down, but I have the transcript of the audio interview on the MM.com site. Unfortunately the video that we attempted to take was not successful due to the camera operator not being familiar enough with the new Hi-Def camera so all the footage was lost. I think we've mentioned this a couple of times when others were looking for that footage. Some people may have some pics of their own up at their own sites, but I can't upload them due to copyright issues. At one time I had 6 pages of pics and had to remove them because a couple of the Russian sites were blatantly stealing pics (and entire pages) off my site and uploading them as their own, and refused to take them down.
Not Kosher.

Its been an ongoing problem for a bunch of fan sites over the years. There is no copyright law in Russia that allows you to police these sites from stealing from people outside of their own country, and they actually thumb their noses at us and taunt us to try and do something about it. In theh past, some of these sites have stolen entire pages from the MM.com site and re-translated them into Russian and then had the audacity to claim they were the 'official' Russian MM site, when in fact there is no such thing. All content, files, banners, and even format were taken directly from the MM.com site, and it really galled everyone that someone else did all the hard work and they just ripped it off. Still kind of aggravates me, but since there's stuff they'll never see or get, I can take comfort in that, hehe.....

La Presó Municipal és un edifici civil situat a la vila d'Ademús, País Valencià.

Situació
La Presó Municipal s'aixeca darrere de la Casa de la Vila, al Carrer Empedrat, que puja en direcció al Castell.

Descripció
És un edifici que té planta baixa i tres plantes superiors, tot i que originalment només tenia una planta superior. La resta van ser construïdes a la dècada de 1950, en una ampliació.

De la planta baixa destaca la façana, amb arc de mig punt, així com l'interessant escut que hi ha sobre, que mostra l'any de la seva construcció, 1567.

Història
Es tracta d'un edifici aixecat a l'últim terç del , durant el regnat de Felip II d'Espanya. A més de les funcions de presó, també va ser seu de part de l'arxiu municipal, com també va servir d'habitatge de l'agutzil.

Més recentment, a la segona meitat del , es va utilitzar com a escola, i finalment, central telefònica. Actualment és la seu de la Sala Municipal d'Exposicions Temporals.

Drag-resizing is made up of 3 separate events and usually 2 DOM nodes. You can do it with one DOM node, but I used two. The three events in used are mousedown, mousemove and mouseup, and they need to be handled in that order. The two DOM nodes I used were the panel being resized, and then handle being held. If you are using only one element your implementation will differ a bit.
The mousedown event signals the beginning of the resizing, and is bound to the handle element. In this mousedown handler we want to do a few things. First we want to bind the mouseup and mousemove event handlers as those are only required after the mousedown event has occurred. Secondly, we want to store the initial mouse position, and original object height. The initial mouse position is useful as it allows us to determine how far the mouse has moved vertically. The initial height is used to calculate the new height. Original height + mouse distance traveled = new height.
A few things to note, I didn't make currentElement a local variable. This is intentional, since the DebugKit tools don't provide scope modification or event augmentation tools, I use a closure to maintain a reference to the active element. Since my handle and panel elements are siblings I use Element.height(Element.getPrevious(currentElement)) to get the starting height of the panel element. Also in the above code you can see the storage of the previously mentioned properties, as well as the binding of the other events. The other events are bound to document because binding them to the active element makes the interaction very fiddly and annoying to use. While binding events to the document object makes the interaction smooth and error free.
This event handler nulls currentElement as the mouse has been released and there is no longer an active element. It also unbinds the mousemove and mouseup events. Now when you are unbinding events with basic DOM methods you need the original Function object in order to unbind the events. This is another reason why these events are not anonymous functions being passed into the addEvent method, doing so would render them impossible to unbind.
A demo would make all the difference!
Well the actual code I used in this article became part of Debug Kit so that's kind of a demo I guess.
j: The main use would be if you needed resizable interface elements, such as dialog boxes or panels.
Look pretty, but how to use it ?
A small example of implementation inside a minimalist html page would be very welcome.
WOW! you've made this very simple! thank you so much! used you in an app im building! definitely sending a shout out to you in it… will send you a link to it when im done.
years on and this site has rocked my world.

D-Link to support living room access to YouTube and other TV-web channels
Active-TV Ecosystem Developers,
The Issue: D-Link improves support for internet video access via its Apple-TV-like alternative.
Background: D-Link is adding active-TV technology to their DSM-520 networked media player. This will enable universal TV access to TV-web formatted internet distributed video.
Behind the scene: Access over the internet to materials specifically formatted for TV viewing should be as unrestricted as access to internet materials formatted for the PC browser. D-Link now makes this possible at a new low price via their innovation and market leadership.
D-Link is well known as a major supplier of networking technology. They also make a range of Digital Media Adapter (DMA) appliances which connect the living room TV into the home network. With broadband service to the home, the DMA gives any TV access to video over the internet. To be sure, this is similar to the operation provided by Apple TV – Apple's DMA. An announcement on Tuesday at iTV Con, the Internet TV Technology Conference in San Jose, indicates that D-Link will add active-TV technology to their DSM-520 MediaLounge media player. With active-TV support, the DSM-520 will have access to a wide range of TV-web formatted video channels, and have an advantaged position when competition with Apple TV.
This is because adding active-TV technology means the DSM-520 is not limited to the TV User Interface (UI) incorporated into the box's firmware. The TV UI is transmitted over the internet in TV-web format, just like a PC's browser page-layout is provided in PC-web format. There is increasing use of TV-web formatting for internet video channel distribution. With a DSM-520 firmware upgrade, there will now be TV access to YouTube and other video sources such as Veoh, Vmix, BBC, Comedy Central and much more.
The DSM-520 is based on the EM8620 TV System-On-Chip (SOC) from Sigma designs. As with Apple TV and the latest generation of media players, there is support for High Definition (HD) video connections. Yet, unlike Apple TV, there is also support for older Standard Definition TV connections such as S-video and composite. There is also a USB port connection for access to photo, music or video materials retrieved from a USB-connected storage device. The EM8620 has support for the latest advanced video CODECs such as MPEG-4 and WMV.
We can anticipate active-TV technology will likely appear in other appliances in the existing D-Link product range. The iTV Con announcement indicated that D-Link will provide an active-TV technology firmware upgrade to existing DSM-520 owners. The Circuit City website currently shows the DSM-520 for sale at $179, which is currently only 60% of the base Apple TV price.
It is not unusual to see new appliances supporting access to internet video, tied back to a particular portal service; Such as the BT Vision Set-Top Box (STB) or the initial release of Apple TV. This may be driven by business interests. The plan could be to use the appliance to drive a revenue stream from the video accessed from the portal. The reasoning behind the plan may be an attempt to replicate a business model similar to that used by US cable TV industry. However, this business strategy is not applicable to a retailer of TVs or boxes such as the DSM-520.
I suspect the portal strategy is sometimes hidden behind a claim to "maintain UI standards". That is the appliance supplier can't guarantee the quality of operation from some user-chosen portal. Internet video consumers will eventually see thought this. For example, a Dell PC buyer does not expect the PC's browser to only access Dell web sites, on the grounds that Dell.com can guarantee the quality of the web site. I am sure Dell does make its best efforts to build the best web site, but it can't expect PC buyers to be restrained in such a way.
Similarly, TV retailers don't try and sell TVs which can only access public broadcast channels because of their decision that, say, FOX channels are not adequate in quality, and hence should not be accessible.
In short, the same is true with TV-web access. For example, Apple TV can try assuring the standard of its own portal, but it can't take responsibility for other developers TV-web material. Users likely don't expect Apple to take on this responsibility, and equally they will expect Apple TV to ultimately support access to other TV-web internet addresses.
The D-Link DSM-520 with active-TV technology could be the platform that everyone wants because it enables universal access to TV-web. Using active-TV technology makes this possible. The DSM-520 will offer more choice than Apple TV and at a lower price. This is likely to remain the case until BroadQ introduce support for TV-web channels on the Sony Playstation 2. Naturally, this will cause further downward pressure on DMA pricing.
Internet video distributors can make use of TV-web formatting and the DSM-520 to offer video to the living room TV. This seems ideal for a retail product such as the DSM-520. I suggest for significant success as a retail product, there should be unrestricted access to any web-channel that may come along. Each video supplier, be it Veoh, Vmix or other, will work to ensure the quality of its video service. TV users, like PC users, understand these issues. There is always another HTML/Flash developer that thinks he or she can build a better UI layout. TV user would rather decide for themselves what internet video channels they want to watch; they will naturally avoid the bad and the ugly.

Apple TV next steps ?
The Issue: What might be next for Apple TV in terms of new platform features, services or collaborations?
Background: Apple TV is off to an interesting start. It has overcome obstacles in: cost, noise, features, ease-of-use and simplicity in terms of maintenance – all of which have defeated many previous attempts to bring internet to the living room TV.
Behind the scene: The competition to deliver Internet video to the living room location is fierce. Unlike PC-web development, the market has no widely accepted delivery platform; it lacks the equivalent of a universal PC with a web browser. Competitors are thus forced to respond to steadily emerging low-price options by combining internet video access with other appreciated features or service. This downward pricing trend may also force collaboration among those trying to gain a leading position.
Steve Jobs has indicated that Apple TV is a long-term project. Apple TV enables a living room TV to access the Apple video portal and YouTube shared video. Maybe Apple felt there was not enough video at the Apple portal to drive sufficient demand for the Apple TV box, and hence has added YouTube. Or, Apple may also have felt Apple TV sales were vulnerable against a competitor's box which supports YouTube access.
Jobs has pointed out that "a lot of people failed" to make a business out of internet delivery of video to the TV. In part, he is likely referring to the Media Center or Home Theater PC. Jobs states they will "work on it [Apple TV] and improve over the next 18 months or two years, we can crack that". What might he have in store?
With Microsoft Extender technology and Intel ViiV client technology not making much traction in the market, active-TV technology has emerged as the primary PC-assisted competitor to the Apple TV approach. Apple TV also partially follows the PC-assisted or Extended-PC approach. However, the consequence of enabling Apple TV to have some stand-alone capability (a 40 GB hard drive is included), is a much higher cost and more heat than desired emanating from the box. Apple TV technology has also not been integrated into a TV or Set-Top Box (STB) with broadcast TV reception capabilities, thus is in no position to reap the cost savings that would result, and hence is at a disadvantage.
Steve Jobs is reported as saying "our model for Apple TV is we want to be like a DVD player for the Internet". Now, DVD players can be bought in the US for $30. Unfortunately, the high Bill Of Materials (BOM) for Apple TV results in a current price of $299. Most importantly, it will not prove easy to get the BOM cost down. Apple TV is made from PC components, minus any display; a 'headless-PC', if you will. Consequently, it has the BOM cost of a low-end PC rather than high-volume consumer appliance technology. Alluded to earlier but little appreciated is that it also generates the equivalent heat output of a low-power PC.
Concerning TV versus PC material costs, PC companies have already struggled with building a low-cost PC-like box. They were familiar with the problems: of 1) high BOM cost, 2) too much heat and noise, and 3) ensuring the Windows operating system is reliable and low-maintenance. Failure to overcome these difficulties is what led to the PC-assisted or Extended-PC approach using active-TV technology, rather than the rapid adoption of a PC dedicated in the living room. The former approach requires very little work be performed at the TV-end. Instead, the work-load is handled, almost invisibly, on behalf of the TV by a networked laptop or PC located elsewhere in the home.
To its credit, Apple TV has solved the problems of noise and operating system operation which defeated the Home Theater PC (HT-PC). The Apple box may be a bit hot but it is fan-less (thus, noise-less). By way of improvement, Intel is likely working on a lower power next-generation chip which will further relieve the heat problem. As to the software used, Apple TV runs a version of Mac OS X which makes it very easy to build application software, even if there is a slight cost adder. Active-TV technology compares favorably with this approach as it enjoys similar productivity, since TV applications are built to run on a Windows browser. All in all, whereas the cost of media support can be absorbed into the price of a laptop or PC, it is not clear that a living room entertainment device like the Apple TV can absorb this cost, when compared with mass-market video entertainment prices.
In contrast, Active-TV technology platforms use chips from companies like STMicroelectronics, ATI, Sigma Designs and NXP. These are low-cost and low-power TV Systems-On-a-Chip (SOC). It is impossible to build comparably priced TV-like appliances using PC components. So Apple TV is vulnerable from a competitor product which enables access to internet video, such as YouTube, but at a lower TV-appliance rather than PC-appliance cost to the end user.
Given the cost advantage of TV-like appliances, what might such devices look like and how might they influence the future direction of Apple TV?
1) TV manufacturers are rapidly developing networking technology for their next-generation high-end TVs. Adding support for active-TV technology adds very little to the cost or complexity of a networked TV; in fact, most of the extra hardware cost may be for additional memory only. Hence, networked TVs may be the least costly option for anyone joining the TV-web revolution, and stand-alone boxes or Digital Media Adapters (DMA), would have a difficult time competing successfully.
Moreover, combining broadcast reception and internet video processing in the same box enables processing of overlay TV-web in synchronization with broadcast TV. This offers advanced support for new forms of TV advertising and social networking. This is also another way to justify the cost of including a hard drive (HD) as the disc can also be put to work supporting digital video recording (DVR).
Support for broadcast reception also enables a low cost solution for what is often described as "sling box" operation. In this case the TV or Set-Top Box sends the received video over the network to a PC where it can be further processed or distributed by software such as TVersity. The approach avoids running complex software directly at the TV. In fact, any materials stored in the PC, or accessible by the PC over the home network, can be appropriately formatted by TVersity and sent-on to a cell phone, Sony PSP or other ecosystem-connected devices.
Tversity is also well known for its use in distributing PC-stored or network-acquired materials to a networked TV utilizing a local TV UI rather than a TV-web formatted UI produced via PC-assistance.
2) With the world wide shift away from analog to digital broadcast TV, many existing TVs are being equipped with digital reception capabilities. This is particularly true in Europe where there is rapid adoption of free-to-view DVB-t boxes. The TV chips used with DVB-t boxes don't support the Mac OS. It would add greatly to the cost of Apple TV to combine digital transport stream (TS) processing with the PC-like innards of an Apple TV box. Maybe Intel can solve this problem by integrating the hardware required for broadcast reception into an Apple TV SOC solution.
3) Apple TV currently supports component video or HDMI connection to the widescreen TV. This can be an obstacle for those lacking sufficient TV-input channels. By integrating a DVD player into Apple TV, the existing inputs used by the DVD player could be put to better use. This is not news to Apple but maybe because of the extra $15 of support hardware, they have chosen not to do so. The use of component signaling does produce a clearer image when viewing digital photos or the TV UI, but it is not necessary for the current YouTube video quality.
Currently there is no support for the popular European SCART connector. However there are conversion boxes which allow Apple TV to be daisy chained with other SCART appliances. This helps reduce competition for TV input signaling for European users.
4) Apple TV technology could be combined with an existing TV service provider's Set-Top Box (STB). The subsidized or free-with-service STB is the approach most familiar in the US. As previously discussed, such STB providers are more interested in generating new revenue from IP video or advertising delivery. They are not much interested in providing free access to TV-web channels, and hence would rather use the internet to support their existing broadcast shows. Apple could provide a closed-garden solution, but the cost of the extra Apple-TV hardware would be difficult to absorb without passing along some of the cost to the end-user.
In contrast, active-TV technology enables the STB or service provider to provide access to TV web channels at lower hardware costs and possibly negotiate directly with the internet video provider, rather than via Apple and its portal. Subsidized STBs associated with closed garden web access may be challenged in the market by an increasing trend to purchase boxes in retail which are not constrained within a walled-garden environment.
5) Competing with hybrid STBs that include internet access to TV-web is challenging enough, but when Voice-over IP (VOIP) is added to the STB, the pressure is only increased. For this reason, Apple may add some type of VOIP to a future Apple TV. Scendix has developed Skype support for active-TV technology ecosystems. Scendix's TV-web formatted UI can be used in conjunction with, say, a wireless Skype phone from the living room. The image below shows how an incoming call is announced on the TV.
6) As previously discussed, the Sony Playstation 2 equipped with BroadQ's version of active-TV technology will have the advantage of enabling a large number of existing PS2 owners to gain access to YouTube and other sources of internet delivered video. The PS2 now sells for about $130, and there may be some additional cost for network support, but some YouTube enthusiasts may see the PS2 as a cost-effective option for viewing YouTube on the living room TV.
Summary: A Piper Jaffray analyst report, states that iTunes is becoming the "de facto standard" for handling media on a PC. With currently 110 million iTunes users, they project that this will lead to Apple securing "$1.2 billion in Apple TV revenue [2008] ", given that the "digital living room market in calendar year 2008 will be $4.7 billion". They also state, "We are currently modeling for Apple to sell 2 million Apple TV units in calendar year 2007".
It is interesting that Piper Jaffray tie the success of Apple TV so closely to its interoperation with Apple's successful PC-side software. I do agree with this ecosystem view of market development – PCs and laptops are clearly going to work in close cooperation with future consumer appliances such as networked TVs. But there is a lot of competition in the PC software business and active-TV technology enables these companies to have a critical presence at the TV. There is also a large and established living room video appliance market that is determined to maintain or grow its market share. Apple securing a reported 25% of the 2008 digital living room market will be a great accomplishment.
In conclusion, Apple TV is an impressive first salvo from an accomplished marketing team into the realm of internet video viewable on the TV. But the lack additional features, an integration path directly into the back of a TV, or TV appliance-like BOM costs, will put great pressure on the marketing team trying to grow sales volume. For now, however, the challenge lies before all those other device manufacturers who wish to build on what Apple TV has achieved, and who will be compelled to use the PC to assist with formatting and delivering universal content to the TV at costs that consumers can readily embrace.

YouTube access added to Apple TV
The Issue: An Apple TV upgrade now enables access to YouTube video at the TV.
Background: YouTube PC-web user-awareness makes it ideal for a TV platform developer to promote sales of networked TV or Set-Top Box (STB).
Behind the scene: Alternative hardware developers, TV UI software developers and video sharing start-ups, are looking for TV technology which enables them to compete in the internet video market, and therefore with Apple TV. Active-TV technology, which can provide open access to competing solutions and contributes to the delivery of internet video to the living room TV in a cost-effective manner, is likely to be a worthy competitor to Apple TV.
I have been trying out the latest Apple TV support for YouTube video access at the TV. Looking at the latest Hitwise network traffic data (below), it is easy to see why Apple added support for YouTube. Hitwise reports: "As of May 2007, YouTube's market share was 50% greater than those 64 [other video] sites combined". There are also reports of over 100M YouTube video viewings per day.
Apple TV's access to YouTube video adds greatly to the amount of video available at the TV. YouTube's popularity can clearly help drive adoption of the Apple TV device. Currently, the only other video accessible via Apple TV is from the http://www.apple.com/ portal or local video, in the appropriate format, from a home networked PC or Mac.
When iTunes is used on a PC, it can display multiple video formats, assuming the necessary codec plug-ins are added. However, Apple TV only displays videos in H.264 format; this includes videos stored on a networked PC and streamed to the Apple TV. Those individuals with large collections of DivX or Xvid-based videos will surely be disappointed. That said, there are reports of how additional codecs can be added to the Apple TV, without having to open the box. Alternatively, video can be transcoded to the H.264 codec using various third-party solutions.
When accessed from a PC, YouTube video has been provided in Adobe Flash Video (FLV) format. Now, likely to support Apple TV, Google is rebuilding the YouTube catalog in H.264 format. Reports indicate "thousands of videos designed for Apple TV will be available at launch, but that the remainder will become available by the fall".
I have not found any information about expansion of the API which gives access to the YouTube catalog. Rebuilding the YouTube catalogue and maintaining both H.264 and FLV versions is surely a major effort. Maybe Apple gains a slight quality advantage from H.264 over FLV, at the cost of a higher bit-rate. It is also likely the encoding resolutions are specifically optimized for Apple TV and iPhone usage. If YouTube provide new API information for accessing their video catalogue in H.264 or FLV formats, other users such as active-TV enabled platforms will be able to select the must appropriate video format. Networked TVs utilizing active-TV technology are able to support the H.264 format.
Last year there was an announced partnership between Google Video and DivX for use of the popular DivX video codec. But it remains unclear where this partnership is leading with respect to the streaming of video to interesting and capable living room appliances. The http://stage6.divx.com/ video-sharing website has emerged as a potential competitor to YouTube – serving-up video in the DivX codec format.
The emergence of Apple TV and active-TV platforms which are not dependant on Microsoft's Windows Media Video (WMV) format (although active-TV technology has shown optional support for WMV), does raise the question whether or not YouTube will feel the need to maintain yet another copy of its video catalog in WMV format. For now, however, given the lack of Extender-based TVs, or the like from Microsoft collaborators, or even any market significance behind Microsoft's next generation Extender technology (Pika), there seems little urgency.
Returning to Apple TV, and what the user experience is like, with an upgrade in firmware, a YouTube entry now appears in the top-level menu. After making this selection, the YouTube menu page (shown below) appears. Note I had previously entered my YouTube user-id and password. A blue box is shown around the current selection; this box is moved around the screen using arrows on the small and stylish Apple TV remote.
I had no difficulty using the Apple TV UI. It works well. Selecting the Top Rated menu entry produced the TV layout shown below. A similar layout is used for many of the YouTube support menus. Of course, the video can be made 'full screen'. Even with the new H.264 formatting, the YouTube video is not high-quality, but I don't think that will deter YouTube enthusiasts.
Video search at the TV is supported, as shown below. It is easy to enter text strings and the YouTube search engine responded quickly. A new video can be added to a user's list of favorites. Disappointingly, however, many of my favorites accessible on the PC (in .FLV format) did not appear in the Apple TV YouTube favorite listings, as they have not yet been re-encoded into H.264 video format.
One thing I did miss was support for favorite playlists. On a PC, iTunes supports playlists and YouTube PC-web supports playlists. In contrast, YouTube video favorites organized under playlists, lose their playlist grouping, when accessed from Apple TV. This feature has been discussed in terms of using an Apple TV as a point of sale display controller. In this case, JPEG slide-shows, video clips or YouTube video could be arranged into a playlist sequence.
My interest in organized playlists is to reduce the amount of TV interactivity. The Apple TV UI still feels like a bit like a PC-web interface – that is, something one person is involved with. I think a group of people viewing the TV are not likely interesting in watching another person continually engaged in driving TV operations. One way to overcome this limitation would be to first create a playlist while accessing YouTube via PC-web on a laptop computer, and then sitting back and watching the playlist via the TV. This would allow YouTube video to be formatted in the more familiar TV experience as a channel for YouTube video or as an assembled playlist.
In summary, Apple's first effort at adding YouTube access to Apple TV is quite good. No doubt they will continue to offer significant improvements. However, there are other software developers which will soon offer alternatively formatted YouTube UIs for the TV. Underlying this are TVs and Set-Top Boxes (STB) supporting active-TV technology, which provide the necessary platforms and means to demonstrate and profit from the inventiveness of new UI software – should they be able to understand what the TV user really wants. Currently, only the Apple TV UI is available for the Apple TV platform.
Regarding video, YouTube competitors also have ambitions of delivering internet video to the living room TV. They can improve their market share by offering a TV-web formatted UI which is more appealing than Apple TV's YouTube UI.
In the realm of hardware, there are also networked TV and STB manufacturers who do not incorporate embedded Apple TV hardware, but must offer a TV UI for user access to video sharing sites. TV-web channels made accessible by a TV's support for active-TV technology, provide TV manufacturers with the necessary mechanism to compete with Apple TV's support for video access.
Given developers are working on TV-web formatted access to YouTube and other video sharing and distribution sites, there is going to be competition and continual development to reach the best TV UI. This new convergence market could be significantly driven by a breakthrough in either hardware or TV UI technology, such as a $100 hybrid STB or low-cost networked-TV; or a TV UI which bridges the gap felt by a large audience of familiar TV users looking for easy and appropriate TV access to networked delivered video.
Steve Jobs is reported as saying "Our model for Apple TV is we want to be like a DVD player for the Internet". This may have led to the Deutche Bank statement "[Apple TV] will eat up a good chunk of the US$26-billion DVD player market in the next several years" and "one of the primary drivers of this change will be the availability of YouTube content on Apple TV". While demand may be strong, platform costs are not insignificant: I would doubt that Steve expects a big financial impact from his 'Apple TV hobby' in the near term, given the material cost of an Apple TV.
Nevertheless, looking to the long-term, Jobs also said "A lot of people failed to make [media centers] a business, such as Tivo and Microsoft. If we work on it and improve over the next 18 months or two years, we can crack that". He may not be alone. Despite lackluster or failed attempts in the past, the exceptionally low cost structure of an ecosystem based on active-TV technology will make it hard to build a lower cost box than one based on active-TV technology. The appeal of YouTube and other internet video sites, with content viewable on the TV, is certain to drive overall demand.

Movie Chat this weekend features the delectable double bill of Johnny Depp and our very own Orlando Bloom in "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl!" Join us Saturday on our IRC server at 5:30 pm EST when we pop our copies of the movie into the DVD player. After the usual confusion we'll all press play on our individual players and proceed to cheer and jeer (or discuss and argue, if you like!) the finer points of the film. We plan to take a break midway through the film, to allow for stretching of fingers and backs. Barliman will be on hand to serve drinks and snacks (and to enforce the house rules).

WASHINGTON — The House and Senate today are poised to pass a defense spending bill for fiscal 2005 that designates $496.7 million for Hawai'i-related projects.
The bill is the product of House and Senate negotiations over the past few weeks. The funding designated for Hawai'i projects reflects the growing importance of Hawai'i to the nation's defense posture. The bill goes to President Bush for his signature after Congress completes action.
Military spending represents about a quarter of Hawai'i's economy, or about $10 billion annually, according to Lawrence Boyd, an economist with the University of Hawai'i. He said defense spending is fueling Hawai'i's economy and has helped to reduce the state's unemployment rate to about 3.1 percent.
"We are getting to the point where the economy is getting beyond full employment," Boyd said. "This money is coming to Hawai'i because of its strategic interest to the U.S. military.'"
Sen. Daniel Inouye, the top Democrat on the Senate defense appropriations subcommittee, said that Hawai'i is crucial to the nation's defense.
"It is where cutting-edge, high-tech research is under way to more quickly detect the enemy, improve combat efficiency, and better treat combat-related injuries," he said recently.
Hawai'i's defense spending focuses on a number of technology upgrades, such as $34.5 million for the Army's high-tech intelligence system, which covers the Pacific.
It also provides for health research, including $23 million for a telemedicine research initiative at Tripler Army Medical Center in Honolulu. The program uses telecommunications for medical diagnosis, patient care and education. Also, $8.5 million was set aside for the creation of a partnership between Tripler and the Cancer Research Center of Hawai'i to improve clinical care and expansion plans.
The defense bill also helps fight a growing drug problem in Hawai'i. About $2.7 million was set aside to support a National Guard program to intercept drugs in places such as ports and airports, while also supporting anti-drug programs for youths.
The spending bill targets money for environmental projects, such as $1.1 million for the study of dolphin and whale hearing acoustics and $1 million for brown tree snake control.
There is significant money set aside — $33.9 million — for the Maui Space Surveillance System, which houses the Defense Department's largest telescope, the Advanced Electro-Optical System.
Another $8 million was set aside for the Pacific Missile Range Facility, one of the largest employers on the island of Kaua'i. The money would specifically support the force protection lab, which provides security technology for bases.
Overall, the defense measure would provide $416.2 billion for the Pentagon, including $25 billion in emergency money for the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. It represents a $25.4 billion increase over fiscal 2004, excluding emergency war funding.
The House and Senate also are working to complete a fiscal 2005 military construction spending bill, which includes $368.4 million for Hawai'i projects. Final action is expected after the summer recess, which begins tomorow.
