Check out this video by Joseph Hersher. I loved marble games like this one when I was a kid.

41 Hours in an Elevator
Check out this time-lapse video of Business Week production manager Nicholas White's 41 -hour ordeal in an elevator of the McGraw-Hill Building in Rockefeller Center, which he experienced beginning on a Friday night in 1999 after going outside for a cigarette break:
"When White finished his cigarette, he returned to the lobby and, waved along by a janitor buffing the terrazzo floors, got into Car No. 30 and pressed the button marked 43. The car accelerated. It was an express elevator, with no stops below the thirty-ninth floor, and the building was deserted. But after a moment White felt a jolt. The lights went out and immediately flashed on again. And then the elevator stopped."
Gawker notes, White is unemployed and the experience pretty much altered his life forever.

Lost Phone Numbers
Hey Everyone,
The Spring quarter has begun and I'm in the thick of research methods and Japanese performance studies. Over the break, while hiking in the Columbia River Gorge, my backpack was stolen with all my electronic gadgets inside. The most irreplaceable piece is the hundred or so telephone numbers that went with my cell phone. Since I'd love to hear from you and replace my cellphone directory, could you give me a call? (207)380-2690 It's a bummer to be robbed but on the bright side, I may get to hear from all of you. Hope to hear from you soon.
