The TV series is reported to come back via a new Star Trek TNG spinoff with Wil Wheaton returning as Lieutenant Wesley Crusher. [Edit: It's for Star Trek: The Tour, not another TV spin off. Thanks jepoy!] Meanwhile, I’m waiting for JJ Abram’s Star Trek XI, hopefully the beginning of a new series that can restore the appeal and excitement of Trek movies since Wrath of Khan.

• Toshiba America companies, as a whole, are doing financially well, overall.  Not better than last year, but still producing a healthy income.
