Double Cryptolist 3

This puzzles was originally posted on the NY Times games forum

For those who like to have another go, go, at a double-cryptolist, below are two sets of 10 items apiece. All 10 items in a given set use the same substitution cipher; while the other set uses a different substitution cipher. (If L stands for E in one cipher, L will not stand for E in the other.)

The two categories, which have also been encoded and listed below, shared a common entry. This entry appears twice in the list of items below, encoded once in each cipher.

As a hint, the five vowels are represent by B, E, G, H, J, O, R, S, V, and W.
