Another Week in Review
Happy Leap Day!
Another mash-up of some noteworthy things in the news. And by noteworthy, I mean stories that caught my interest while browsing. Feel free to add on in the comments if you like.
Second Christmas!
There is a rare holiday, which I like to call Second Christmas.
To most it is a secret; it is celebrated all over Canada and Scandinavia, many celebrate in Germany and north Eastern Europe, but only about 0.002% of the U.S. population knows of it.
Most who do celebrate it know it by another name; that of course is, the National Hockey League Trading Deadline.
AudioSurf: "Ride" Your Music, New Steam Game
Basically, this game lets you “ride” your music on a course-type setting where the game takes your music and creates a course out of it (based on the sounds) like this YouTube clip shows for Dragonforce:

State of the Presidential Nomination Races
Update: Ralph Nader has enterred the race as an Independent candidate; he received 0.3% of the votes in ’04 on 34 state ballots and look for him to get a similar margin (virtually all votes from the Democratic contender).
The reason I’m writing this today, is that tonight will be perhaps the last debate between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, the two remaining Democratic candidates for the nomination. (It will be on the major networks for anyone interested).
For those of you who don’t know, Republican John McCain has basically clinched the Republican nod and should be able to seal it on March 4th passing their threshold number (he’s uncatchable at this point, so it doesn’t really matter).
Now, as a political junkie, I’ve been following the nomination very closely, watched almost every Democrat and Republican debate, and I read the blogs and watch news on it every day with my other news gathering.
