Six months ago, I was diagnosed with prediabetic glucose levels, and I adjusted my diet and started exercising more to try to bring my levels back down to normal. Since then, I've lost 10-12 pounds and shed nearly 2 inches off my waistline. I had my followup visit on Monday, and according to the test results, my glucose levels are back to normal.

Well, I'd settled on keeping the little Blu-Ray player and setting it atop one of my speakers (which don't seem to get very warm, as I guess they're big wooden boxes filled mostly with air), so I set it up (after swapping out the long and short HDMI cables, the hardest part of the exercise since they were threaded behind the AV cabinet) and tried it out on a widescreen disc.

“The Mudworm” was written by actor/writer Alan Caillou (whose previous work included episodes of The Man from U.N.C.L.E. and the third pilot

I decided to buy a refurbished DVD/Blu-Ray player to replace my old DVD player--which will only show widescreen movies letterboxed within a pillarboxed 4:3 frame so that the image is small and surrounded by blank space on all sides--and my hand-me-down Blu-Ray player that stopped responding to its remote a while back. (Buying a replacement remote didn't help, and the buttons on the front of the player still work but don't allow selecting menu options, so it can't play anything that doesn't autoplay.) Unfortunately, the newer device has the opposite compatibility problem from my old DVD player.

Dalle ceneri della Guerra Romulana è sorta una nuova nazione: la Federazione Unita dei Pianeti, un’unione senza precedenti di specie diverse che collaborano per il bene di tutti. L’ammiraglio Jonathan Archer – l’ex capitano dell’astronave terrestre Enterprise, i cui sforzi hanno reso possibile questa unione – immagina una Federazione vivace che promuova la pace galattica e una Flotta Stellare multispecie dedicata all’esplorazione di nuovi e misteriosi mondi.

Tuttavia, altri all’interno della Federazione ne vedono lo scopo principalmente militare, una difesa unitaria contro una galassia pericolosa, mentre alcuni dei suoi vicini guardano a quella potenza militare con sospetto e timore. E far sì che i pianeti membri, le loro flotte spaziali e persino le loro tecnologie lavorino insieme come un unico insieme rappresenta una sfida continua.
