Princess Cruises has canceled two voyages on the Royal Princess in the wake of Thursday's engine room fire on the vessel.
In an announcement issued late Friday, the line said it made the decision after a damage assessment revealed that the 680-passenger vessel had been more affected by the fire than originally thought.
"We have spent the day thoroughly reviewing the condition of the engines," the line said in a statement. "Unfortunately, the impact is more extensive than originally thought and the ship must be moved to a shipyard to complete the necessary repairs."

The cancelled cruises include the current voyage, which has been ended six days early, and a voyage scheduled to begin on June 25.
"We understand that this is a disappointing development, and we sincerely apologize to our passengers for the disruption to their vacation," the line's statement says.
Princess is offering passengers on both voyages a full refund of their fare, plus a future cruise credit equal to 25% of the cruise fare paid for the sailings. The line is securing and paying for flights to get passengers who were on the ship when the fire broke out Thursday home.
"We deeply appreciate our passengers' patience and understanding during what is an unfortunate development," the line says.

Logitech G602 Wireless Gaming Mouse Runs 125 Hours on Single AA Battery
August 28th, 2013
Gaming peripherals are great because they are built to last long, since gamers aren't always delicate with their devices. They also pack plenty of features, making them more useful than just plain-Jane peripherals.
The Logitech G602 gaming mouse comes with 11 programmable buttons, which is pretty sweet. The design of the mouse fits the hand neatly, and it has got a 2500 dpi optical sensor, and the ability to change sensitivity on the fly.
Contrary to typical gaming mice, this one is also wireless and it will run for up to 125 hours on a single AA battery. With 2 AA batteries in place, the mouse should run at least 250 hours. Plus, there's an enduro mode that will make them last for over 1,400 hours!
The Logitech G602 gaming mouse will cost $79.99(USD) and will be available in September on shelves, is available for pre-order now over on Logitech's website.

text: Flav's 77-minute solo debut, Flavor Flav, is roughly 76 minutes too long. Without Public Enemy partner Chuck D to balance his atonal singing and anti-rhythm raps, the sleazy Casanova's grating shouts are unlistenable. Infantile lowlights include ''Let It Show,'' which steals bits of Barney fave ''If You're Happy and You Know It,'' and the caveman-inspired ''Unga Bunga Bunga.'' His fame may have been revived by reality TV, but Flav's musical legacy should be allowed to rest in peace.

Move over hotels and motels. This summer, a one-of-a-kind "boatel" is riding a wave of popularity in Far Rockaway, N.Y., the New York Daily News tells us.
Located on Jamaica Bay near John F. Kennedy International Airport, four 30-foot-long motorboats have been converted into a floating, no-frills hotel on Jamaica Bay, the story says.
A fifth boat is a 1967 houseboat - with a deer head mounted on an inside wall - can sleep up to five. There's even a makeshift movie theater.
TWITTER: Follow Hotel Check-In's BarbDelollis
Will people actually pay for this?
It's a far cry from the Hamptons, and the rates reflect that.
A gentle $50 gets you a night's stay in a floating room with mood lighting (citronella candles) and sound (jetliners taking off and landing at JFK), the article says. The private houseboat costs $100 a night.
What's not included in the rate: A bathroom or shower. For that, you'll have to walk down the dock to Marina 59's facilities, the Daily News says.
Sold out this summer
Nevertheless, the "boatel" is sold out through Labor Day. The season may be extended by adding weekend availability, the article says.
Guests are told up front that it's "not a real hotel. This is an adventure at best and an art project at worst," the story says.
"I'm not trying to bring Burning Man to Far Rockaway," 29-year-old Constance Hockaday told the Daily News. "I just wanted it to be adventurous enough so that when you were stepping off of that dock and onto this dock it feels like you're in a different place."
Read the full Daily News article for details about what inspired Hockaday and how she pulled it off.

Democrats Support Destructive Limits on America's Energy Sector
May 16, 2007
At today's EPW Committee hearing today, Senate Democrats expressed support for reducing mercury emissions from every power plant by 90 percent. Proponents of this approach generally claim that each power plant should be able to reduce mercury emissions by at least 90 percent, even though this level of reduction is not currently achievable and control technology vendors refuse to guarantee the performance of mercury removal technologies at these stringent levels.
FACT: According to the Energy Information Administration (EIA), setting a 90% reduction mandate on mercury would cost up to $358 billion. A 90 percent reduction would result in fuel switching away from coal, which is our most abundant and least costly energy source, to natural gas. Increased reliance on natural gas for electricity generation will further increase prices, seriously impacting the ability of businesses to compete in the global marketplace and of families to pay their utility bills.
Further, like many other pollutants, mercury levels have also come down dramatically. Numerous industries that used to emit high levels of mercury, such as the municipal waste incinerators, have been controlled. The power sector industry is merely the latest industry to be regulated. And the regulations are significant – President Bush's Clean Air Mercury Rule (CAMR) will reduce power plant mercury emissions by 70 percent. And because the rule acts in coordination with CAMR– which reduces SO2, NOx, and particulate matter – it can be done for $2 billion.
That's right – cutting 70% will cost $2 billion, but incrementally increasing that amount to beyond what the technologies can reliably do would cost up to $358 billion.
Finally, draconian mercury mandates fail to address the mercury emissions from outside of the United States. According to the EPA, Asia is responsible for 53 percent of mercury emissions worldwide, and that U.S. power plants contribute only about 1 percent of the mercury in the oceans. In fact, according to EPA, U.S. emissions of mercury were reduced by nearly half, from 1990 to 1999. While we have made great progress in reducing these emissions, they have been offset by increases in emissions from Asia, particularly China.

Jul 5, 2013 2:38 PM by Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - An escaped prison inmate used the phone at a small general store and bought an iced tea and a lighter at a counter where his mug shot was displayed before a customer tackled him, ending a daylong search in a matter of minutes, store workers said Friday.
Store employees told the owner that James David Myers tried to use change from his pocket to cover up his picture before he was tackled and tied up with rope off the shelf Thursday night, less than 24 hours after he was found to be missing from a prison about 8 miles away in Mansfield.
The prison and the State Highway Patrol have refused to discuss how Myers, who worked in the prison's maintenance area, escaped before a headcount Wednesday, his 47th birthday.
Employees at the Olivesburg General Store in rural north-central Ohio reported that Myers asked to use the phone Thursday evening, saying he needed to call for help because his vehicle broke down nearby, said store owner Connie Crossen, who arrived later. Myers, in a white T-shirt and dark pants, had been carrying a coat labeled with the prison's abbreviation, Crossen said.
Employee Greg Gallaway said he was scooping ice cream when, in disbelief, he and a customer wearing an American flag T-shirt for the Fourth of July recognized Myers at about the same time.
"I'm kind of looking around the room, like, 'Is anyone else seeing what I'm seeing right now?'" said Gallaway, 20.
When Myers stepped back to the counter to buy a candy bar, the customer grabbed Myers from behind. Surveillance video from the store shows the man in the flag shirt pinning Myers to the floor.
"It was awesome, honestly," said Gallaway, who didn't recognize the customer as a store regular. He said Myers didn't resist once pinned, and others helped tie him up.
Myers was taken back to the prison, where he'd been held for the rape, kidnapping and other crimes.
Though authorities had warned the public not to engage Myers if he was spotted, Crossen said she was proud of how employees handled the situation. Gallaway said it didn't occur to him until afterward that the inmate might have been armed.
"While we wouldn't encourage people to take action regarding a dangerous criminal who had just escaped from prison, you know, we understand that they did what they had to do," said Lt. Anne Ralston, a patrol spokeswoman. "We're thankful to get him into custody without incident and get him back to the prison without anybody getting hurt."
Prison officials wouldn't say whether Myers previously tried to escape.
Myers, formerly of Mogadore, was imprisoned in 2010 on kidnapping, rape, aggravated burglary and other charges out of northeast Ohio's Summit County. Prosecutors alleged he raped a woman at gunpoint and forced her to consume cocaine, and an appeals court upheld his conviction, according to court records.

The liquid-cooled R&S THR9 high-power FM transmitter provides output power ranging from 5kW to 40kW. It is digital-ready, making it well equipped to meet future demands because it supports both FM and digital standards in VHF band II such as HD Radio. Network operators will benefit from the MultiTX concept, integrating multiple transmitters into a single rack. The THR9 concept makes it possible to accommodate as many as four 10kW transmitters in a single rack. The FM transmitter is highly efficient: Two RF power components ‒ the power combiner and the RF rigid line ‒ have minimum attenuation. This enables efficiency values of up to 75 percent in analog FM mode and cuts energy costs by as much as 50 percent.

#9: Patience ...Saturday, 28 May 2011
There are time as a coach when you become impatient with the client because the answers seem obvious. From the client's viewpoint this is not always the case, and as there is a clear distinction between the role of mentor and coach there is a need to let the client progress at their own pace.
There are times when it is the right thing to do to 'switch hats' from coach to mentor - but if you do ensure that you have permission from client to do so.And be very clear when you are switching from one to another and back again.
Be prepared to be very patient the individual will have the answers, but it takes time.

For 48 years, Ethel and Norman Thayer have summered at their cabin on Golden Pond. Their New England home is filled with memorabilia, reflecting their long history on the lake, and life with their daughter, Chelsea. However, this summer becomes a season of conflict. Chelsea, now a forty-ish divorcee, and deeply distanced from her father, has come to visit with her new lover, Bill and his tough young son, Billy. These three generations are about to collide, with only the witty and buoyant Ethel between them.Chelsea and Bill announce that they are taking a trip to Europe, and ask Ethel and Norman to take care of young Billy. Both Ethel and Norman are more than a little uncertain about their new roles as grandparents. And what begins as a stubborn battle of wills between Norman and Billy, slowly turns into a warm and loving friendship. When Chelsea and Bill return from Europe, Chelsea sees in her father's friendship with Billy, the kind of connection she always wanted with her father. In turn, Norman sees how much he has missed by denying his daughter's love.
The loons are back again on Golden Pond and so are Norman Thayer, a retired professor, and Ethel who have had a summer cottage there since early in their marriage. This summer their daughter Chelsea -- whom they haven't seen for years -- feels she must be there for Norman's birthday. She and her fiance are on their way to Europe the next day but will be back in a couple of weeks to pick up the fiance's son. When she returns Chelsea is married and her stepson has the relationship with her father that she always wanted. Will father and daughter be able to communicate at last?
For Norman (Henry Fonda) and Ethel Thayer (Katharine Hepburn), this summer ON GOLDEN POND is filled with conflict and resolution. When their daughter Chelsea (Jane Fonda) arrives, the family is forced to renew the bonds of love and overcome the generational friction that has existed for years.

Question: Linda Evans and John Forsythe were in a nighttime soap with the name Carrington. What was the name of that show?
Answer: I'm happy to answer that, but I demand an explanation — unless you spent the better part of the '80s living in a vacuum or, at least, manning a missile silo, I simply don't see how you could forget the over-the-top Dynasty. A fixture of a time when alluring TV women were rightly defined as those over 20, the series was a classic and the definition of the overused term "guilty pleasure."
A ratings powerhouse in the mid-'80s, Dynasty ran on ABC from January 1981 to May 1989, making Forsythe, Evans (The Big Valley) and costar Joan Collins household names while doling out paychecks to what seemed like half of Hollywood and upping the profiles of actor

EAU CLAIRE — The University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire will present its annual Choral Festival on Saturday, Oct. 8.
UW-Eau Claire is known nation wide as " Wisconsin's Singing University" for its unusually large choral department and the quality of its performers. The festival serves as an opportunity for many of Wisconsin and Minnesota's best high school vocalists to learn about UW-Eau Claire's vocal and choral department.
The festival begins at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 7, with A Cappella Extravaganza in Schofield Auditorium of Schofield Hall. The performance gives students and community members a peek at the variety of a cappella ensembles the UW-Eau Claire campus offers. The featured groups this year are the UW-Eau Claire Chamber Choir, Fifth Element, Girls Night Out, Impromptu and the Innocent Men. The Eau Claire Memorial Madrigals will also be presenting selections at the event.
The Choral Area Concert will feature Women's Concert Choral and The Singing Statesmen at 1:15 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 8, in Gantner Concert Hall of the Haas Fine Arts Center. WoCo, under the direction of Alan Rieck, associate professor of music, will open the performance, featuring music by Z. Randall Stroope, Philip Schroetter and Richard Kidd. They will end with a traditional Chinese piece. The Singing Statesmen, directed by Gary Schwartzhoff, professor of music, will feature works by composers Ronald Nelson, J. A. Parks and others. The two ensembles will jointly perform "Good News, The Chariots Comin'" by Moses Hogan.
The finale to this year's Choral Festival will be the Festival Concert at 7 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 8, in Gantner Concert Hall. Schwartzhoff and his UW-Eau Claire Concert Choir will open the concert with "Haec Dies" by Vijay Singh. They also will feature works by Stroope and Hogan. Richard Fletcher, professor of music, will accompany the choir on clarinet in Clausen's "Black is the Color of My True Love's Hair."
The Festival Concert will feature the Prior Lake High School Concert Choir as this year's guest high school choir. The choir will begin with "Daemon Irrepit Callidus," which translates to "The Devil Sneaks Expertly." The Prior Lake choir also will perform "Sing Me to Heaven" by Daniel Gawthrop, "The Boy who Picked Up His Feet to Fly" by Joshua Shank and the finale from "The Gondoliers" by Gilbert and Sullivan.
Outstanding vocal soloists also will be selected to perform prepared selections at the Festival Concert. The top three finalists will be chosen from these soloists to receive scholarships for their freshman year at UW-Eau Claire.
The concert will conclude with a performance by the UW-Eau Claire Honor Choir. Both Rieck and Schwartzhoff will conduct the ensemble. The Honor Choir is comprised of visiting students from various high schools in Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Tickets for A Cappella Extravaganza are $5 and are available at the University Service Center, (715) 836-3727 or (800) 949-UWEC. Admission to the Choral Area Concert and the Festival Concert is free.

Preschool: What are the benefits of preschool?
My wife and I recently had a discussion regarding the necessity of enrolling our daughter in preschool. It seems to be a given that children enter preschool prior to kindergarten these days. It seems to me that society is rushing children into adulthood these days and that preschool will soon be preceded by pre-preschool, and so on and so on. Other than simply "keeping up" with all the other children, what are the benefits of preschool?Question:
Of course, it is not necessary to send your child to pre-school. The concept probably originated for two reasons: first, research shows that children learn easily and well at the ages of three and four. Second ( and most important), many parents are not around to teach their young children. Because of the necessity of two parent incomes, many parents are at work. I always tell the parents in my class who question a full-day program for four-year-olds that I'd rather have their children with me than with a babysitter, often home in front of a TV. No one disagrees.
The social benefits of pre-school are also undeniable. Young children learn to live in a classroom community; they learn to follow a routine, and to get along with people who aren't their relatives. (Sometimes this is a difficult task!) With the advent of educational television and computer games for the very young, our children are "ready to roll" at a much younger age than ever before. Most kindergartens I know of now take advantage of this new preparedness to begin some kind of formal learning process which was reserved for first grade only five years before. But the tasks of fitting into a classroom community remain as important as ever. It is much easier for a child to have this piece of behavior resolved as he or she enters kindergarten.
This is not to say that you can't provide an enriched and loving environment for your young child. If that is your choice, then go ahead and do it. If you have the time and energy to attend parent-and-child courses at a local museum or "Y," your child will certainly have stimulation. Frequent visits to the playground will expose your child to the give-and-take of social activity.Answer:

Reporter Nancy Luna goes behind the scenes of "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives." The popular Food Network show will feature OC-based food truck Chomp Chomp Nation on Monday.
What: The Orange County food truck, which launched in October 2010, sells Asian-inspired foods with an American twist. The truck will be featured Monday on Food Network's "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives."
The team: Husband and wife Robert Zuetell and Gina Galvan and classically trained chef Rizi Manzon operate the truck. Galvan, who cooks with Fieri during the episode, is a chef consultant who has created menu items for brands such as Pizza Hut, McDonald's, Taco Bell, BJ's Restaurants and Del Taco. She also helps international brands develop their foods for market in the U.S.
Where to find: Chomp Chomp makes stops in various Orange County cities throughout the week. You can follow the truck on Twitter (@chompchomptruck) or Facebook.
Website: chompchompnation.com
Source: Food Network and Chomp Chomp Nation
Where to watch: Chomp Chomp is hosting a viewing party at Aloha Grill 6:30-8:30 p.m. The show airs at 7 p.m. on the Food Network. Aloha is at 1749 Newport Blvd. in Costa Mesa.
Episode description: "This trip, Guy digs into dishes with a personal connection. In Toronto, Canada, a Jewish deli smokes meats and knishes the old school way. In Los Angeles, a funky food truck infuses Singaporean flavors into their chili crab cake and lamb burger."
"Triple D" effect: Even though the show hasn't aired, Chomp Chomp has already felt its impact, often dubbed the "Triple D Effect." The owners recently received backing to open their first brick-and-mortar restaurant at the Packing House food hall in Anaheim. They plan to eventually take the brand global.
Source: Food Network and Chomp Chomp Nation
I've always been curious about what happens behind the scenes of food shows, especially Guy Fieri's "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives."
How much time does the spiky-haired, bleached blond really spend in the kitchen with the house chef? Is Fieri as personable off camera as he is on? How do you get on the show?
I got my answers in December when I watched the taping of a "Triple D" show featuring Orange County food truck Chomp Chomp Nation. The influential program, which has put dozens of small-town restaurants on the map, tapped Chomp Chomp after a "secret eater" sampled its exotic, Indonesian-inspired fare last year.
"The food caught their eye," owner Gina Galvan said.
Galvan and her husband, Robert Zuetell, invited me to watch Fieri's crew tape segments in Santa Ana and Compton. (More on Compton later.) We couldn't publicize details of the shoot then. Producers don't want Fieri fans to know his whereabouts for fear of a mob scene.
But now we can spill the beans. Chomp Chomp's crab and lamb burgers will become famous come Monday when the show airs. The truck is in rare company. Only two other Orange County food establishments, Paul's Coffee Shop in Fountain Valley and Mama Cozza's in Anaheim, have been featured on the popular Food Network show.
"It was more fun than I expected," Galvan said of the whirlwind experience.
Stop reading now if you don't want any spoilers.
The tiger-striped Chomp Chomp truck was booked for a December taping after being vetted for hours by the show's producers. They wanted recipes, personal history and most of all a "cool vibe" for Fieri to showcase.
Once Chomp Chomp got the green light, everything "happened very fast," Zuetell said.
The couple and chef Rizi Manzon halted truck operations to accommodate a three-day taping schedule. Several scenes were shot at the Heritage Museum of Orange County. The Santa Ana location served as a picturesque backdrop for filming diners eating on picnic benches.
But it also proved to be the biggest challenge.
With Chomp Chomp going off radar for a few days, Zuetell scrambled to find discreet customers willing to be filmed in secrecy.
"'You can't tell anyone, but you need to get people there for the shoot,'" Zuetell says with a laugh, recalling the conundrum producers put him in.
He wound up inviting trusted friends and family – and yours truly.
During the Santa Ana shoot, I arrived late as cameras were wrapping up for the day. I looked for signs of Fieri. An exhausted Zuetell told me not to bother.

Chelsea 2-2 Tottenham: Player ratings
Petr Cech: Could do little about both of Tottenham's goals and looked pretty solid throughout. 6.
Cesar Azpilicueta: Did a superb job in keeping Gareth Bale quiet. 8.
Branislav Ivanovic: Guilty of backing off Emmanuel Adebayor to allow Spurs in. 6.
Gary Cahill: Helped the ball on to Oscar for Chelsea's opener. Was also guilty of backing off Adebayor, though. 6.
Ashley Cole: Quiet game for the England left-back. Was helped on the night by Aaron Lennon's lack of fitness. 6.
David Luiz: An inspired choice in central midfield. Kept Lewis Holtby relatively quiet and excelled going forward. 8.
Ramires: Timed run for second goal to perfection. Would have put game beyond Spurs if he had not lost his footing. 8.
Oscar: Showed great poaching ability to head Chelsea ahead and was a danger throughout. 8.
Eden Hazard: Superb display. Always busy. Made Scott Parker look very, very old. 8.
Juan Mata: Kept play flowing up top. Should have hit the target on a couple of occasions, though. 7.
Fernando Torres: Never much of a goal threat, but played the channels well and set up Ramires for his goal. 7.
Victor Moses (on for Hazard 72 minutes): Did little to make an impact on the game. 6.
Yossi Benayoun (on for Oscar 83 minutes): Surprising introduction. Had no impact. 5.
Hugo Lloris: Could do little about both Chelsea goals and commanded his area well. 6.
Kyle Walker: Got forward much more often. Should have tested Cech in the second half though when played in by Adebayor. 6
Benoit Assou-Ekotto: Another so-so performance. Looked good going forward, but was often careless in possession. 6.
Jan Vertonghen: Caught out of position for Chelsea's second. 5.
Michael Dawson: Unable to keep up with Ramires once he had given Vertonghen the slip. Led by example by taking a bruising shot from Hazard in the face, though. 7.
Tom Huddlestone: Awful. Too slow. Passing unusually awry. 4.
Scott Parker: Gave it his all, but tonight demonstrated why some think he is past it. Way off the pace for most of the game. 5.
Lewis Holtby: Provided his usual measure of energy in midfield. 7
Aaron Lennon: Tried his heart out, but clearly not at full fitness. 6.
Gareth Bale: Not his best night. Rarely featured and was booked late on for petty foul on Ramires. 5.
Emmanuel Adebayor: Best performance of the season by some margin. Always asked for the ball. Scored one of the goals of the season. 9.
Gylfi Sigurdsson (on for Lennon 60 minutes): His introduction brought Tottenham back in to the game. Crucial late equaliser. 7.
Clint Dempsey (on for Holtby 70 minutes): Also helped turn the tide away from Chelsea. 6.

Now that Internet radio is totally mainstream (think Pandora and Last.fm), we compared two of the newest and most advanced Internet radio models.
It's a wide world out there with tens of thousands of Internet radio broadcasters, from a guy streaming his iPod's tunes, to commercial radio stations that offer a mix of music, news and chat. The best part is that in order to listen in on what the world has to say and play, no longer need a computer.
Web radios can bring the world of music and talk to your desk or night stand. All you need is a WiFi network: the latest Web radios, such as Grace Digital's Allegro and Logitech's Squeezebox Radio can both pull in stations from the other side of the world, or from your home town.
We reviewed the Allegro and the Squeezebox. Both offer a good mix of available stations and sound quality but are missing one crucial feature. Neither one has a traditional AM/FM radio built in, although most radio stations these days also broadcast on the Web.
If you can overlook this missing feature, you'll find both of that both of these radios will do a good job of helping you tune in the world.
Create a new thread in the Streaming Video & TVs forum about this subject
0JohnnyLucky , January 29, 2010 5:46 PMHmmmm....I already use my pc to access radio stations on the Internet. Thanks to a fiber optic connection on the back of my pc I am connected to my old Yamaha am/fm audio receiver, surround speakers, and subwoofer. Why do I need another box on my desk?
0jamezrp , January 29, 2010 7:36 PMI have the older Logitech Squeezebox Boom, and I love it. I don't use it as much as I'd like (my current living space doesn't leave much room for it), but it's nice to have a set-top box that can connect via wi-fi to any number of online radio stations. Especially since reception at my house is crap and I like listening to the radio (when there are good stations to listen to). I don't like to fiddle around with my web browser, have another application open or something running on my PC to do that.
True, the speaker quality isn't as good as my Razer Mako's, but they're good enough. I'm not listening to high-end music on the radio anyways.
0drizzo4shizzo , January 29, 2010 8:51 PMI have a Squeezebox Boom and also the older Squeezebox Classic, which does not have speakers but plugs into your receiver via digital RCA. The Classic was recently replaced in the line-up with the "Touch".
These are great for streaming the same music from your PC throughout the house. You can sync them up, control them all with a web browser say on a netbook (or an iPhone app called ipeng) and the logitech software you need to install on your PC (to get the media streaming to these babies) is open source and runs on linux.
You can just keep adding devices. I think I'll be buying the Squeezebox Radio or maybe another boom next (the boom does have a remote control, as does the "classic")
I believe that at some point if not now already you will be able to stream your music from these devices themselves to their brethren -- without the PC. Maybe tunes from a thumb drive or USB connected HDD. Not sure on this point however, I must say I am VERY pleased with my Squeezebox setup.
0Tomsguiderachel , January 29, 2010 9:13 PMJohnnyLuckyHmmmm....I already use my pc to access radio stations on the Internet. Thanks to a fiber optic connection on the back of my pc I am connected to my old Yamaha am/fm audio receiver, surround speakers, and subwoofer. Why do I need another box on my desk?
YOU don't need another box on your desk. But most people are thinking of putting one of these radios in the kitchen, bedroom, or living room--where they DON'T have a PC.
0Anonymous , January 30, 2010 4:07 AMOn the Logitech radio... there's supposed to be a remote and rechargeable battery pack released for in in Q1 2010 here. Indeed, remotes for the other Logitech radios (e.g., the Squeezebox Boom) do work with it, so it does seem likely this really will happen.
0welshmousepk , January 30, 2010 5:37 AMi may be missing something here, but why are they asking for an am/fm radio in an internet radio device?
isn't that like complaining that an MP3 player doesn't have a cassette player built in?
0jamezrp , January 31, 2010 12:30 AMNot all AM/FM stations are available online. I'd love to have AM/FM radio available (and heck, even HD radio), but for me it's a geographic problem. I get no radio reception at my house. On the road, I'll use my Zune for HD radio, which is awesome because I have access to a ton of stations (almost twice the amount of just standard FM radio). So I certainly see a reason to want it.
But about the remotes, I don't particularly like the Boom's. I'd prefer something larger that isn't so easy to lose, that you can easily change stations by pushing 1, 2, etc. from presets.
0unixuser , January 31, 2010 2:08 PMTo those that have a Squeezebox Boom: Are you able to receive the BBC World Service? I was able to receive it until a software upgrade a few months ago. I've contacted Logitech several times and I get a runaround, then after pressing the issue I get a response of 'the team is aware of this issue and there is no estimate for a fix'. It's very odd since I can get the station on my desktop, laptop and iPhone. What's wrong with Logitech's team that they can't fix a straightforward technical problem???
0Evolution2001 , February 2, 2010 3:10 PMI want a system that has outputs so I can jack into my existing home sound system. Neither of these appear to have it. Or it wasn't mentioned that they do. Currently, I have my media server jacked into my entertainment system, but it would be nice to have a smaller, independent device that can sit next to the home system. At my girlfriend's house, I simply ran a 1/8" Stereo RCA cable into one of the AUX inputs on the back of her receiver. She just plugs her iPod into that and streams Pandora, Slacker, etc, or her own library of songs. That alone nearly eliminates the need for an internet radio.
0Stardude82 , February 6, 2010 9:47 PMLate comment, but why hasn't this review talked about the web interfaces? The most impressive thing about my Squeezebox Boom is the mysqueezebox.com and the fact I can modify the box it anywhere in the world.
Oh and the street prices of these boxes are $50 less then MSRP.
0Anonymous , February 15, 2010 11:13 AMOne feature that needs to be addressed is the alarm clock. It seems to be very buggy. For example, if you snooze too many times, the entire radio simply stops working. No listening to the radio, no future alarms, nothing. Same issue if the alarm goes off and you leave the radio going. I've been late to work two times last week alone. I just can't trust it. The radio has had a very difficult time connecting to stations. I've spent more time trying to get it to work than actually listening to it. I have to say that I have none of these issues with my Livio...Although that one doesn't have an alarm clock. If this Squeezebox Radio worked perfectly for all the features it has, then it would be such a winner.
0Anonymous , February 23, 2010 4:16 AMIt would be nice if there really were a battery pack for this item. Logitech oversold it before they made the rechargable battery pack (a $50 add-on to the $200 price of the radio). It's useless without a battery pack. What a waste.
0Anonymous , February 23, 2011 9:46 AMWhats the difference between the Squeezebox Radio & the Squeezebox Boom ?

Top Local Tips for Durango
I love Durango You must ride the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad train. This is also a great town for rafters/kayakers & skiers. Bring clothes for cooler weather (jacket/coat, gloves, hat, scarf, thick socks, long sleeves) all year around because the weather can change at any moment & drop snow. We visited in May & it snowed in Silverton (an nearby town). They have had snow in Silverton in July, so just be prepared.
JULY Summer Heat Personally speaking, if you are looking to get away from the heat of the summer I don't suggest Durango because it is actually just as hot there in the town. At least, however, it is a fairly short and beautiful drive to Silverton.
Train journey If you are taking the Durango/Silverton train try and get a seat on the right side of the carriage.I went in September and the outside carriages were very cold so wrap up warm if your taking the early trip

Heartland Recreational Vehicles LLC v. Forest River Inc
Filing 107
ORDER denying 88 Motion to Compel. Signed by Magistrate Judge Christopher A Nuechterlein on 3/22/10. (smp)
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT NORTHERN DISTRICT OF INDIANA SOUTH BEND DIVISION HEARTLAND RECREATIONAL VEHICLES, LLC, Plaintiff, v. FOREST RIVER, INC., Defendant. ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ORDER On February 1, 2010, Defendant, Forest River, Inc. ("Forest River"), filed a motion to compel discovery. On February 18, 2010, Plaintiff, Heartland Recreational Vehicles, LLC ("Heartland"), filed a response in opposition. On February 28, 2010, Forest River filed a reply. On March 16, 2010, Heartland filed a sur-reply. For the following reasons, Forest River's motion is DENIED. [Doc. No. 88]. I. PROCEDURE On October 24, 2008, Heartland filed their original claim against Forest River alleging patent infringement. On November 17, 2008, Forest River filed its answer and asserted a counterclaim for infringement of federal trademark rights. On February 1, 2010, Forest River filed a motion to compel discovery. In that motion, Forest River sought to compel the production of Heartland's billings records relating to an alleged search report, additional times diaries from Bakers & Daniels, and any of Baker & Daniels written policies on patent prosecution, record retention, and time diaries. Forest River primarily seeks the production of these records to discover the source of prior art patents found in discovery documents produced by Heartland. CAUSE NO. 3:08-CV-490 TLS Heartland objects to producing these documents on several grounds. First, Heartland asserts that the discovery requests are not reasonably calculated to lead to the admission of relevant evidence. Further, Heartland claims that the requests are unduly burdensome. Heartland also argues that the discovery requests seek information that has little probative value to the case and that this minimal value is outweighed by the burden and expense of producing the information. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, Heartland asserts that Forest River's requests seek documents that simply do not exist. This Court may rule on these motions pursuant to its referral order and 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(A). II. ANALYSIS Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(b)(1) permits discovery into "any matter, not privileged, that is relevant to the claim or defense of any party." Relevant information need not be admissible at trial so long as the discovery appears reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence. For the purpose of discovery, relevancy will be construed broadly to encompass "any matter that bears on, or that reasonably could lead to other matter[s] that could bear on, any issue that is or may be in the case." Chavez v. Daimler Chrysler, 206 F.R.D. 615, 619 (S.D. Ind. 2002) (quoting Oppenheimer Fund, Inc. v. Sanders, 437 U.S. 340, 351(1978)). However, discovery under Rule 26 is not an invitation to the proverbial fishing expedition. This Court has broad discretion when deciding whether to compel discovery and may deny discovery to protect a party from oppression or undue burden. Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(c); Sattar v. Motorola, Inc., 138 F.3d 1164, 1171 (7th Cir. 1998) ("[D]istrict courts have broad discretion in matters related to discovery."). The frequency or extent of the discovery methods otherwise permitted shall be limited by the court if it determines that: (I) the discovery sought is unreasonably cumulative or duplicative, or is obtainable from some other source that is more convenient, less burdensome, or less expensive; (ii) the party seeking discovery has had ample opportunity by discovery in the action to obtain the information sought; or (iii) the burden or expense of the proposed discovery outweighs its likely benefit, taking into account the needs of the case, the amount in controversy, the parties' resources, the importance of the issues at stake in the litigation, and the importance of the proposed discovery in resolving the issues." Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(b)(2). A. Heartland's Billing Records and Baker & Daniels' Written Policies Forest River seeks all of Heartland's correspondence and billing statements which relate to the patent at issue, specifically including any prior art searches or investigations. According to Forest River, the requested correspondence and billing statements will reveal the source and details of a prior art search in connection with the contested patent application. Further, Forest River asserts that once Heartland's records have specified the location or details of the search the report will likely determine whether Heartland, or any other parties, engaged in inequitable conduct in connection with obtaining the contested patent. Forest River asserts that the performance of inequitable conduct in obtaining the patent would render the contested patent unenforceable. As a result, Forest River claims that Heartland's billing records are relevant to locate the results of the prior art search and to establish that inequitable conduct occurred in the attainment of the contested patent. Forest River's request presumes that a prior art search was conducted by Heartland or by a third party at the request of Heartland. Forest River bases this presumption on the presence of fourteen patents found in the patent case file turned over during initial discovery. In response, Heartland asserts that the requested documents, the prior art search and related records, simply do not exist. Heartland asserts that any prior search, if it existed, would 3 have been performed by their former attorneys, Barnes & Thornburg. Further, Heartland notes that Barnes & Thornburg searched their records and found no evidence of any prior search. Similarly, Heartland observes that their current attorneys, Baker & Daniels, conducted a records search and uncovered no evidence of a search report. Heartland argues that all evidence indicates there was no prior search and Forest River's request amounts to a fishing expedition. Finally, Heartland reports that it pro-actively commenced a comprehensive search of its own financial records and found no responsive documents to Forest River's request. Heartland's principal argument is that the requested documents do not exist. Heartland engaged in a comprehensive search of their financial records for the relevant years and did not recover any records related to the alleged prior art search. Because Forest River has provided no evidence, other than pure conjecture, to the contrary, this Court takes Heartland's assertions to be true. As such, it would be futile for this Court to order the production of documents that do not exist. Forest River's motion to compel presumes the existence of a prior art search performed by Heartland or a third party. However, absent any evidence to support this assertion, this Court will not permit Forest River to engage in a proverbial "fishing expedition" through all of Heartland's financial records. Therefore, Forest River's motion to compel, to the extent it seeks financial documents from Heartland that do not exist, is DENIED. In addition, Forest River seeks disclosure of Baker & Daniels' written policies regarding patent prosecution, timekeeping, and record retention. Forest River argues that the policies are relevant because they would allow Forest River to test the credibility of Mr. Gallagher, an attorney at Bakers & Daniel, who was involved with prosecution of the patent at issue. In response, Baker & Daniels observes that it has located its written timekeeping policies 4 and will produce a copy of this policy to Forest River. However, Baker & Daniels alleges that the firm has no written policy regarding the prosecution of patents. Accordingly, Baker & Daniels argues that it has complied with Forest River's request. In as much as Baker & Daniels asserts it has no written policy regarding the prosecution of patents, this Court takes Baker & Daniels' assertions to be true. Accordingly, it would again be futile for this Court to order the production of documents that do not exist. In addition, regarding the written timekeeping policies, Baker & Daniels asserts that it has already agreed to voluntarily submit a copy of these documents to Forest River. Because Baker & Daniels has agreed to voluntarily produce the existing documents and notes emphatically that the other requested documents do not exist, Forest River's motion to compel, as to those requests, is DENIED. B. Baker & Daniels' Time Diaries Finally, Forest River seeks unredacted time diaries from two other attorneys at Baker & Daniels. Specifically, Forest River seeks unredacted time diaries from Mr. Gallagher and Mr. Brotherson. Baker and Daniels already submitted redacted time diaries of these two attorneys, but Forest River now contends that the redacted portions are a "cover up" of the prior art search. Specifically, Forest River alleges that the unredacted time diaries will establish that a prior art search was performed and will show who performed the search. In essence, Forest River argues that Baker & Daniels is attempting to cover up the "smoking gun" by providing redacted entries. Further, Forest River argues that the time diaries are not protected by the attorney-client privilege nor protected as work product. In response, Baker & Daniels asserts that it has already complied with the original 5 discovery request and have provided all relevant time records of attorneys involved in the prosecution of the patent. Additionally, Baker & Daniels notes that while some of the entries in the disclosed time records were redacted, only those portions of the records that are irrelevant or related to other matters were redacted. Moreover, Baker & Daniels argues that the time records of Mr. Brotherson are irrelevant because Mr. Brotherson worked as an administrative supervisor and was not substantivally involved in the patent prosecution. Finally, and most convincing to this Court, Baker & Daniels asserts that the fourteen prior patents were already contained in the patent case file when the file was given to them by Barnes and Thornburg. Accordingly, Baker & Daniels argues that it is chronologically impossible for its time records to reveal any information about the origin of the fourteen patents. This Court relies upon Baker & Daniels' assertion that it has complied with Forest River's request and have disclosed all relevant time records. Forest River has not submitted evidence to dispute Mr. Brotherson's administration position. In addition, Forest River failed to dispute that the case file was transferred to Bakers and Daniels after the patents had been established and an alleged search, if there was one at all, would have taken place. As such, this Court is not convinced that compelling further disclosure is likely to reveal relevant information. Further, this Court notes, and Forest River does not dispute, that two full and unredacted disclosures were previously made by Heartland and Barnes and Thornburg, those parties who were involved in the original patent applications at issue. Forest River does not dispute that these full and uncontested disclosures, revealed nothing to support Forest River's ongoing quest for an ephemeral "smoking gun." Instead, it has only led to further searches by Forest River and 6 more contorted justification for Forest River's access to the requested documents. No more. Forest River's elaborate conspiracy theory regarding a "smoking gun," by itself, is insufficient to establish that Baker & Daniels has withheld relevant information by providing redacted copies of their billing records. Instead, this Court concludes that Baker & Daniels has complied appropriately in its disclosure of relevant time records, and this Court will not permit Forest River to engage in another "fishing trip" through the records. Accordingly, Forest River's motion to compel further production of Baker & Daniel's time records is also DENIED. III. CONCLUSION Therefore, because Forest River's discovery request seeks documents that do not exist or seeks documents that have already been disclosed, Forest River's motion to compel is DENIED. [Doc. No. 88]. SO ORDERED Dated this 22nd Day of March, 2010. s/Christopher A. Nuechterlein Christopher A. Nuechterlein United States Magistrate Judge 7

Chive Fest hopes to win over neighbors

How the Hornbuckles overcame heroin
By Jon Solomon
The lowercased lang — the subject of an extended Q&A accessible at blogs.westword.com/backbeat — arrived on the '80s music scene as a glorious freak: a short-maned Canuck with a boisterous manner, a jet engine of a voice and a taste for vintage cowgirl duds and Patsy Cline. It was an enjoyable persona, but also a limiting one, and by the time the single "Constant Craving" turned 1992's Ingénue into a career-redefining hit, she'd gotten serious — and she's remained that way ever since. Watershed, her first collection of original material in eight years, is well-considered and tasteful, with lyrics that reflect her abiding interest in Buddhism and a vocal style that prizes subtlety and nuance over sheer volume. Although the album's considerably less fun than, for instance, 1987's Angel With a Lariat, the maturity of her presentation offers rewards of its own. Joined on this bill by Dustin O'Halloran, lang remains a novel talent, even if she long ago left novelty behind.

Title: Nelly Furtado sweeps
Posted: April 03, 2007 (01:13 PM)
Nelly Furtado swept the Candian equivalent of the Grammy awards by winning the prize in every category in which she was nominated (and you thought I meant with a broom), according to an article on MP3.com. Isn't that exciting?
Title: The March that was...
Posted: April 01, 2007 (07:30 PM)
EmP may have done it first, and he never talked to me before posting a list of his reviews in March with descriptions, but I think we all know he copied my idea... even though I didn't have it until I saw him do it. Here goes!
Meteos: Disney Magic (DS)
I had never played Meteos and I was interested to see how the game played. What I found was an addictive game that wasn't ruined at all by the Disney license. The soundtrack was full of cool Disney stuff and there were neat pictures, too, but I thought they could've pushed the license further. As far as the review goes, it probabl could have gone a lot further, but it was hard to manage anything special for a puzzle Disney game, you know?
Sonic and the Secret Rings (WII)
I was very happy with this review. I hadn't played a Sonic game in awhile and I was afraid how this one would turn out, but the buzz seemed better and when I gave it a shot, I found out why. I really put my heart into explaining why this game is worth trying even if Sonic games have disappointed you recently, and the feedback let me know I succeeded. Definitely one of my favorite reviews that I've written.
Bullet Witch (X360)
This is a game that a lot of other sites criticized quite harshly, mostly because it wasn't the game they wanted to be playing. However, it's a perfectly fine game taken for what it is: a straight-up romp through several atmospheric levels with only a gun and a few devastating spells for company. I really liked the game and for the most part, my review was a response to other critics who complained about things that weren't even really true. Reports are that I went a little over the top establishing the atmosphere, but I like how it turned out just the same.
Lumines Plus (PS2)
This was another puzzle game, and for a Lumines game, no less. I played it rather extensively just the same, but my review probably doesn't reflect that quite as much as it should have. This was one of those reviews that (hopefully) gets in, gets the job done and then ends without inspiring people to check their computer clocks.
Winning Eleven: Pro Evolution Soccer 2007 (X360)
There is an audience for this game, and I thought I was part of it. Playing the thing proved me wrong, though. Winning Eleven is a sim series through and through. I'm used to soccer games where you get near the net and kick a goal, rather than trying to kick the ball across the stadium. The controls here really ruined a lot of the experience, but there was no denying that the game is cool and quite rewarding for those who have the patience to master the most retarded controls in the history of sports games. I just wasn't that person. I've since sold my copy of this game. I can't imagine myself ever playing and/or enjoying it again.
Europa Universalis III (PC)
This game kept me up for 18 consecutive hours and I really liked it. I spent a lot of time agonizing over the score and finally realized that nothing I encountered in the game really held it back. A deep strategy game that's easy to get into and hard to put down, even for a dufus like me? Sounds like perfect fodder for a 10! I wanted to try something different with my review, and it started with a lot of personal anecdotes that I ended up cutting. Just the same, I think it has a more personal feel to it than some of my stuff and hopefully it's interesting to readers (and of course, informative).
Kororinpa: Marble Mania (WII)
I expected to love, love, love this game, and instead only ended up liking it a lot (and not as much as some people, either). It was a fun game but when I sat down to write the review, inspiration never really came. I'm afraid that the result is a rather dull review, but it should get the points across. I think.
Konami Classics Series: Arcade Hits (DS)
I'm a big fan of retro gaming, so I was really looking forward to this one. Unfortunately, the end product isn't anything particularly special in the scheme of things. Most people who play the game will do so because they remember a few of the titles from arcade's glory days. My review kind of wandered that way against my will. I usually don't do a run-down of every title in a compilation, but it felt right here so I went with it.
Disney's Meet the Robinsons (WII)
This one I wrote in quite a bit of a hurry, because by the time I got done playing the game, it was about time to head out of town for the weekend. I hadn't even expected to play through it, but it showed up at my door unannounced and was just what I needed to enter a license-based games competition over on the forums. Results aren't in yet, so I have no idea how well this review will be received, but I felt like it covered the bases without getting dull. Interestingly, I tend to like license-based games more than most people, but despite a fairly positive review for this on IGN, I thought it was downright forgettable and even broken in places. Meh.
Lost in Blue 2 (DS)
Lost in Blue 2 had intrigued me since I missed out on the first one, so I went into the game wide-eyed and excited by the opportunity to survive a deserted island. As my review says, though, this was a pretty unpleasant game that did too good a job of mimicking the tedium and horror of life on an island. Ugh. I hated to give a game with such good ideas such a low score, but it really was a chore to play and I can't imagine most people enjoying themselves. I'm sure it'll be a cult classic among some masochists, but again, that's not me.
And that's the list of reviews I wrote this month. About half of them I really liked and the other half were just me going through the motions. Hopefully, April will include more games that really inspire me when I sit down to review them...

Title: New Site Feature
Posted: March 11, 2007 (01:44 AM)
I've added a new site feature for the competitive side in all of us. Now you can click from any game profile page to submit a high score for that game. You'll be able to submit a screenshot, a title for your accomplishment and a description with all the juicy details.
I know that not everyone cares to compete with games, but this is a structured set-up that should make it easy to swap scores and prove what you've done with the appropriate screenshots. It works for any game, so anyone who wants to set up a little friendly competition can just have his friends register on the site and start participating.
Every time I think I've designed the last feature for the site, I think of something new. I've wanted to see someone do something like this for awhile, so finally I just did it myself. I really do think the features are about done coming, though. It's hard to think of much else I would add at this point!

Title: TuneFreaks
Posted: December 26, 2006 (09:28 PM)
Okay, so TuneFreaks now has working forums. Let's move any discussion over to those forums. By now, most who are interested have accounts and permissions that will allow them to view the staff forums. If you've missed the boat so far, now's a good time to register and then let me know so I can update your permissions, if appropriate.

Title: TuneFreaks progress continues
Posted: December 24, 2006 (01:45 PM)
You all thought I'd forgotten about TuneFreaks, but I haven't. Last night and this morning I worked somewhere around 8 hours on the site, so that now album reviews can be submitted and approved by staff.
It's slow going but most of the big hurdles are now behind me. It's smaller tweaks that have to happen from here. Today, I may make more user account options so that I can easily change account privileges through the front end. Then everything should be ready to test as we head into the new year.
If you want to be part of the site during its early stages, you need to register an account. Then you can post in response to this blog and we can set you up with the proper privileges to match your level of interest in building the site. There are tons of artist and album listings to create, obviously, and lots of music to review. We're starting with pretty much a completely blank slate, so now's the time to jump on board if you want to impact the site's coverage and musical direction.
In the coming weeks, I'll continue adding user features and forums, as well as smaller features that people won't immediately notice but should appreciate in the long run. I will also be tweaking the visual design to bring it closer to something along the lines of HonestGamers. The site is definitely getting close to the point where it needs to be to start rocking.
So again, if you're interested in participating, you need to state your level of interest. There are a few options:
1) Standard user. You can post on the forums and submit album reviews, but not artist or album listings.
2) Beefy user. You can post on the forums and submit album, artist and album content, but you can't edit listings.
3) Super user. You can post on the forums, plus submit and edit album, artist and album content. You also approve or reject user submissions.
Post here letting me know which level you prefer and why you think that level is appropriate for you. We can discuss any other details privately over AIM or through HG Mail if you like. Pretty much everyone knows how to reach me through one of those methods. Let's get this party started!

Title: Legend of Heroes going rare?
Posted: December 19, 2006 (11:54 AM)
I decided that I would go ahead and purchase Legend of Heroes before it becomes difficult to find, since Namco Bandai just announced that it'll be publishing the third in the trilogy soon.
Stores around here used to have the game readily in stock but recently it has disappeared from shelves. "No worries," I thought to myself. "I'll just go online."
So I went online, and I tried Amazon.com. They have it used, if you want to go that route. I didn't. I wanted it new, dang it! So I decided to try pricegrabber.com, which gathers together several merchants. No luck there. They didn't even have it listed. So I tried ebgames and gamestop, which now have the same approximate inventory. Nothing.
I then tried calling locally to see if GameCrazy might happen to have it, since they sometimes suprprise me. They had one in stock, but couldn't sell it because it's a special order someone placed. He'll be picking it up soon, I guess. They offered to attempt a special order. If they could get it in, they quoted $39.99 and a week or two as the likely delay. I said I'd keep that in mind.
I went online again and this time I tried bestbuy.com. They didn't have the game listed. So then I tried walmart.com, which had it in stock. With shipping, it came to just under $39.99 and I should have it in a week. Yes, I placed the order.
This boring story has a point: to let you know that Legend of Heroes is getting close to being impossible to find. The sequel I found the first place I looked, Amazon.com (though it seems it's getting close to the state its predecessor currently enjoys).
The Legend of Heroes games haven't gotten the best of reviews overall, just typical RPG scores. They're made by Falcom and Zig swears they're worth playing. So I now have ordered the first two and will get the third shortly after its release early next year (I hope). I hate missing good RPGs for any system I own. Oh, and I also ordered Riviera for the GBA (it's at $40.00 now for a sealed copy and climbing) and Popolocrois for the PSP. Gotta play it safe...

Title: More music...
Posted: December 18, 2006 (04:39 PM)
Today I bought more music. One of them was "Pinkerton," by Weezer. You guys keep talking about it here, so I finally had to go ahead and get it.
I now have three Weezer albums, purchased in no particular order. First came their green one, then Meladroit, and now Pinkerton. I still need the blue one and their fifth one, as well. Then I'll have the whole set!
Best Buy never has the fifth one in stock, but they did surprise me today by carrying Sufjan Stevens. They had Illinois and, I presume, his newest. It was him running around in a field or something. I forget what it was called.
So anyway, I picked up "Pinkerton" and then I also got the newest George Strait CD, which I know interests none of you...
Posted: November 19, 2006 (05:30 AM)
Well, I finally have a Wii. I know most of you couldn't care less, but I'm pretty excited. I have seven games (not counting Wii Sports):
Excite Truck
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Rampage: Total Destruction
Rayman: Raving Rabbids
Red Steel
Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz
Trauma Center: Second Opinion
Of those seven, I've currently played two: Excite Truck and Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz. I have to say that so far, I prefer the former.
Super Monkey Ball is definitely fun at times, but it's also very frustrating at times. It doesn't wait long at all before it gets hard, which I could handle, only there are boss encounters. Sucky, cheap boss encounters. The levels themselves aren't bad, though. I'll have to try multi-player and see how that goes, since it's apparently half the game.
Excite Truck I like a lot. It feels purely like an arcade racer. It does force you to go through a quarter of its tutorial mode before you can even race, but that's perhaps for the best. The tutorial takes about two minutes to finish and really acquaints you with how things work. And how is it that they work? You hold the controller horizontally and move it left or right to steer, forward and back to control your vehicle when it's airborne (which happens a lot). The graphics really look a lot better than I anticipated from screenshots and the action is pretty frantic. This is definitely an exciting experience. It feels very fresh, which is weird because really, all that's new is the control scheme.
As for the Wii itself, the controller feels a bit cheap when held in its horizontal position, and in fact most of the time, yet it's not what I would call uncomfortable. It leaves you a lot of freedom of movement and I've found myself adapting to its quirks more quickly than I expected. There are times when it feels absolutely natural and you forget you're holding a controller at all. Other times, you have to force yourself to remember that when you're at a tricky part. It's quite nice.
Setting up the Wii wasn't as nice, though. I had to sit through two updates before I played any games. I suspect this is just early release software fixes, but it took 2 or 3 minutes. Creating my Mii character was a bit more fun, though I haven't played Wii Sports yet so I'm not sure how well that's integrated. I downloaded Sim City which went by without a hitch, though there were only about six titles on the list to download. It looks to me like it's in early stages and hopefully it will become more streamlined in the future. I can't imagine the interface working well for more than a week or two, if ten new games come out each Monday.
Overall, my impressions are that this is a great system. It doesn't look a whole lot like a gaming machine, yet the experience so far has been completely about games and having a good time. It's a shame my body requires sleep...
