- XP tips
This was my favorite game as a kid. I learned a lot from it, and I remember it as being fun. Now I'm a teen and I'm testing to see if the game works on Windows XP so I can give the game away (as an AP history student, I've outgrown it). It works witha few modifications. The day you install it, only play 2 cases; the third one freezes. Also, when you have to insert the second disk it tends to freeze. It will save your cases though, so just restart your computer, put in the second disk, and play. As a general rule, I wouldn't play more than about four, possibly five cases at a time. Also ignore the horrible synching, the characters aren't really mouthing the words they're saying.

- Incredible
I have owned this game since I was five years old, and I'll tell ya' something: No matter how long Iv'e owned this game, (as long as I don't play it more than seven times a year) I never get sick of it! It's just one of those games that is incredibly fun every time you play it. It is also the perfect length, not too short, but not so long that you get bored. It is a two-disc game, with nine levels on the first disc, and nine on disc two. All of the levels are so different, that you can never get sick of it. Another score is that Amazon offers new, factory-sealed copies of it for VERY low prices. So, since Iv'e owned it for a very long time, take my advice and get your copy of one of the best games ever created.

- Best Game Ever
I bought this game because I was bored. And my parents wanted me to buy an educational game. I played it, exepecting to be scared, ( I was in second grade and Carmen terrified me.)but it ended up, once I beat it, I played it over again! And again, and again, and again! I love Carmen's games now ever since I played this one. I am in middle school now, and there are things I learned in this game my teachers didn't cover bacause it was " too advanced " If you are a student reading this review, beg your parents for this game. If you are a parent, beg your kids to buy it. Once they beat it, you play it! My parents learned things when I asked for help.

- Best Game Ever!
Ok, so I'm not really a kid I'm just using the kid's review because it's easier. This is a great game. I played it when I was in elementary and finally won the game in middle school. I learned so much from it. I'm in college and we still discuss things in my history class that I already know because I learned it from this game.

Wee-Fi: Virgin America Formal Launch, Heathrow Coach-Fi, Laptop Recovery

Virgin America formally launches: Last week, Virgin America offered free Wi-Fi on its single Internet-equipped aircraft, My Other Ride's a Spaceship. Today, the service goes commercial ($10 for flights 3 hours or shorter; $13 for longer flights), and the rollout to other planes begins. Virgin has a special URL--http://wifitracker.virginamerica.com/--that takes you to a tracking page showing which flights in progress have Wi-Fi, but they don't yet tell you how to determine whether a given flight you'll be on will offer the service. With 24 planes and a plan to add service one per week, that shouldn't be a problem for long.

Heathrow Airport Coach Link adds Internet service: Icomera, a leading transportation Wi-Fi firm, has added free Wi-Fi to FirstGroup's RailAir coach service that connects Heathrow Airport with Reading in England. RailAir runs every 20 minutes for a 50-minute route. FirstGroup handles 3 million passengers a day across all its routes, which makes it a plum market for future expansion.

Awareness Technologies adds Wi-Fi positioning for laptop recovery: Awareness is the latest firm to partner with Skyhook Wireless to use Wi-Fi positioning to its products, in this case Laptop Cop, software designed to aid in recovery. The software starts at $50 for a 1-year license, with discounts for quantity.

How to Use Neuroscience to Become Your Avatar

Watching video through virtual-reality goggles of a mannequin's body while you look down at your own can trick your brain into believing the mannequin's body is yours. Swedish neuroscientists find that threatening the mannequin's body with a knife caused a physiological response in the person watching the video, indicating they have taken psychological ownership of the other body.

The war to end all wars...

It wasn't a Merry Christmas A few years ago while visiting friends in Germany, we made a trek to Verdun, France. As an American, I had no clue as to what was there other than it was an old city dating to the (Pre)- Roman era.
I was shocked and humbled to what I saw. The greatest battle (possibly in the history of modern warfare) was at the very place I was walking.
At the Douaumont Ossuaire, we video taped our tramping about. Below the bldg, there are windows that peer into...what to call it? A giant room filled to the top with bones and skulls. I taped for a few minutes and then felt an overwhelming sense of sadness. I was looking at 130,000+ forgotten warriors. I shut of the camera and destoyed the tape. This month, please take a moment to remember the fallen. My respect to those who died. As an American. Previosly.
