Abstract: A media game that employs a method for randomly shuffling through a large set of video and/or audio clips stored on readable media using a media player, such as a DVD player, is disclosed. In addition to the readable media, the game also includes a game board, moveable play pieces, trivia question cards, random name cards, a numbered die, and a challenge die. The game board can be converted from long play to short play by lifting the endmost sections of the game board and placing them next to each other on top of intermediate sections of the game board. A path circumnavigates the game board and appears to be continuous in both long and short play modes. The begin and end regions reside at least partially on the endmost sections and appear as unbroken shapes when configured for both long and short play.

Abstract: A method for randomly shuffling through a large set of video and/or audio clips using a media player and related readable media is disclosed. In one form, the total number of entries in the set of clips is a prime number. An initial current clip value is randomly generated between one and the total number of entries in the set. A jump value is randomly generated between one and the total number of entries in the set minus one. To select a subsequent current clip, the current clip value and the jump value are added together. This sum is divided by the number of entries in the set. The remainder from this division is saved as the subsequent current clip value.

Abstract: Carbon blacks having a CTAB of greater than, or equal to, 140 m.sup.2 /g; a CDBP of greater than or equal to 115 cc/100 g; a Tint value of greater than or equal to 135%; a .DELTA.D50 of less than or equal to 50 nm; a Dmode less than or equal to 72 nm; and an Occluded Volume Index greater than or equal to 1.30 that impart superior treadwear resistance and abrasion resistance to rubber compounds. Preferably, the carbon blacks of the present invention are further characterized by having a N.sub.2 SA greater than or equal to 150 m.sup.2 /g, and less than 180 m.sup.2 /g; and a DBP of greater than or equal to 140 cc/100 g. Also disclosed are rubber compounds containing the carbon blacks which exhibit increased abrasion resistance and treadwear resistance at normally utilized loading levels. Further disclosed are rubber compounds containing the carbon blacks which exhibit increased treadwear resistance/hysteresis ratios at loading levels lower than normally utilized in the compounding of tire compounds.
