The Posts critics highlight original movies that are being streamed and made available on demand. Here are this weeks picks. A scene from "Pleased to Meet Me." (180 Degrees) PLEASED TO MEET ME In 2002, the radio program This American Life broadcast a memorable episode showcasing a group of musicians all previously strangers who were recruited from classified ads to head into the studio for one day to cover Elton Johns Rocket Man. Featuring a sultry jazz vocalist, an earnest Christian rocker and an electric violinist with anger-management issues, the deliberately mismatched band managed to churn out a rendition of the pop classic that was surprisingly endearing even rousing. Those adjectives could just as easily be applied to Pleased to Meet Me, a new feature film inspired by the radio experiment. Directed and co-written by Kentucky filmmaker Archie Borders, the film makes some minor plot and character adjustments here and there: Rocket Man is replaced by an original ditty by Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Joe Henry (who also plays a sound engineer), and the violinist (Timothy Morton) now has a drug problem. But its a very similar tale with more meat on its bones. Thats not to say that theres much … Continue reading →

King Archer Jeron Teng kept mum about the possible additions to the defending champions roster for the upcoming FilOil Flying V Hanes Premier Cup and the UAAP, and stressed that team chemistry is key in their quest to repeat as UAAP men's basketball champions. The Archers, who earned the championship with only 13 players last year, lose veteran point guard LA Revilla, while Yutien Andrada returns from an ACL injury to join Robert Bolick, Luigi dela Paz, Kib Montalbo, Jason Perkins, Gabby Reyes, Matt Salem, Oda Tampus, Thomas Torres, Norbert Torres, Arnold van Opstal and Almond Vosotros. Aside from homegrown player Prince Rivero, Teng remained tight-lipped about the possible additions to the team's roster. "Actually madaming magagaling," said Teng when asked about possible standouts from their rookie class. The incoming junior also added the the team doesn't feel much added pressure, coming in as defending champions. "We dont think about it. We're just hungry for more," Teng said. "Laging sinasabi samin ni Coach Juno [Sauler] is to not think about the results. Play the game lang." Teng also added that NCAA Juniors MVP Rivero from La Salle Greenhills will share his position at small forward, while alternating at the power … Continue reading →

Researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed a new and unconventional battery chemistry aimed at producing batteries that last longer than previously thought possible. In a study published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, ORNL researchers challenged a long-held assumption that a battery's three main components -- the positive cathode, negative anode and ion-conducting electrolyte -- can play only one role in the device. The electrolyte in the team's new battery design has dual functions: it serves not only as an ion conductor but also as a cathode supplement. This cooperative chemistry, enabled by the use of an ORNL-developed solid electrolyte, delivers an extra boost to the battery's capacity and extends the lifespan of the device. "This bi-functional electrolyte revolutionizes the concept of conventional batteries and opens a new avenue for the design of batteries with unprecedented energy density," said ORNL's Chengdu Liang. The team demonstrated the new concept in a lithium carbon fluoride battery, considered one of the best single-use batteries because of its high energy density, stability and long shelf life. When ORNL researchers incorporated a solid lithium thiophosphate electrolyte, the battery generated a 26 percent higher capacity than what would … Continue reading →

Throughout its lifespan, Particle has been promoting a new sound fashioned from two seemingly opposing camps: heavily produced and programmed electronica and more organically driven jam band grooves. But finding a common ground for such music hasnt been half as tricky as keeping the Los Angeles group operating with a roster that lasts long enough to maintain a sturdy sense of band spirit. As it takes to the road this spring, Particle will exist as an act with a 14-year history but with a lineup that has been performing for less than a month. Its no wonder its music always seems so new. It feels like this lineup has been playing together for years even though weve probably only played 25 shows, said Particle keyboardist and co-founder Steve Molitz. But time is so relative in the arts. If the chemistry is there, its not bound by normal laws of time in the way other work relationships might be in different fields. Within the arts and music, especially if things are clicking, then you can really accomplish a lot in a little bit of time. I feel like this lineup is a perfect example. Its such a well-rounded bunch of people. … Continue reading →
