Program 54: Departures (Trailer)

DEPARTURES (OKURIBITO) – Program 54: Closing Night – Thursday, May 7, 2009 – 7:00 PM – Aratani/Japan America Theatre – 2009 ACADEMY AWARD WINNER: Best Foreign Language Film A premiere symphony orchestra in Tokyo disbands, leaving Daigo Kobayashi suddenly unemployed.

With wife Mika in tow, he moves back to his hometown in the northeastern prefecture of Yamagata. They move into the crumbling remains of his mother’s house, which doubled as the local pub. Spotting a Help Wanted ad featuring the word “departures,” he arrives for an interview, excited about the prospect of trying a new career in the travel industry. The company owner, Sasaki, hires him on the spot, with only a cursory glance at his resume. Daigo ventures to ask what is involved, and is stunned to learn what he has gotten himself into: the ceremonial “encoffination” of corpses prior to cremation. Sasaki, aging and in need of someone to carry on the tradition, urges Daigo to take the job, proffering large amounts of cash. True to Sasaki’s expectations, Daigo develops a deep respect for life in all its variations, and a profound empathy for people trying to make peace with the finality of death.

First Flight of the Boeing 787 The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is a mid-sized, wide-body, twin-engine jet airliner under development by Boeing Commercial Airplanes. Its maximum seating capacity is between 290 and 330 passengers, depending on variant. Boeing states that it will be more fuel-efficient than earlier Boeing airliners and will be the first major airliner to use composite materials for most of its construction. Boeing’s development of the 787 has involved a large-scale collaboration with numerous suppliers. The aircraft’s maiden flight, originally planned for September 2007, took place on December 15, 2009.

The Woman Who Can’t Stop Getting Off This newly discovered condition dubbed Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder (aka being a guy) left this anonymous girl with 100-200 orgasms every day and unable to have actual, real life sex.

Based on a mysterious tiny particle and building block of life that is hoped to be discovered, the much-delayed and maligned Large Hadron Collider has been hit by its most outlandish claim to date – it is being sabotaged by its own future. The world’s biggest and most complex experiment to date, said to be Back to the Future in real life, the LHC has taken 10000 researchers more than 15 years to build.
