That be Daniel on the drums,
playing with Navigating Flow,
fresh from their recent tour of China and Hong Kong...

Apple iPod Settlement
I haven't had the time to read all of the fine print, but Apple has agreed to settle a class action lawsuit filed on behalf of owners of the first three generations of iPods. Some of these models, my Third Generation iPod included, were equipped with faulty batteries that drain in under four hours. By and large, I love my iPod, and friends and family know that I'm generally a strong advocate for Apple Computers. However, I've been really annoyed by the fact that my iPod sometimes barely stays charged long enough to listen to it on both legs of my commute--1 hour door to door--from my apartment to my office at UIC.
Fortunately, I believe that Apple has agreed to replace the batteries free of charge on some of the models or to provide a $50 rebate good on most purchases from Apple. Again, I haven't looked into all the details, but I believe that owners have until sometime in September, 2005 to file their claim forms.
For more details about the Class Notice and forms and instructions, visit the Apple iPod Settlement website.

Impeach Bush
In an op-ed piece appearing in The Boston Globe, Ralph Nader and Kevin Zeese argue, "The impeachment of President Bush and Vice President Cheney, under Article II, Section 4 of the Constitution, should be part of mainstream political discourse." They're right, and impeaching Bush shouldn't just be discussed, it should become a reality. After all, misleading the country into war is a much more serious offense than misleading the country about an extra-marital affair. Why was Monica a bigger deal than the WMDs?
