From the Bermuda Triangle to the Devil's Sea, some waters have become associated with the paranormal. I seem to be living in a technology Bermuda Triangle. Two weeks ago my media- center PC died suddenly, and two days ago my primary desktop went belly up. Sure, I was able to switch over to my laptop and get back to work, but for the time being my data was trapped inside the defunct desktop. At least, it would have been trapped, if not for my secret weapon: SugarSync. Save the oceans with this DS puzzler Internet titan Google makes no apologies for hiring aggressively, as it reiterated last week on a conference call with Wall Street analysts. In fact, the Mountain View, California-based company is going so far as to poach a prominent New York City-based technology reporter as part of its bid compete with upstart rivals like Facebook and Twitter. Google [...] Comedy Central funnyman Stephen Colbert writes with humor about his harrowing journey as a member of a sailing crew in 2005's Charleston Bermuda Race, a 777-mile plunge into the Bermuda Triangle. Originally published in the Guardian on 31 March 1992 Battle-weary election protagonists in both major parties last night claimed victory after renewed clashes over tax and public expenditure, in which John Major virtually pledged "year on year" tax cuts towards his 20p goal only to see Labour claim that the Prime Minister's promises were being undermined by his Chancellor. Conservatives' satisfaction at their leader's evident determination to take control of his faltering campaign and give it a more positive gloss was offset by Labour's exploitation of Norman Lamont's admission that there was "very little room for manoeuvre at all either on the tax side or the spending side" in the years ahead. Pressed about renewed fears in the City that a financial crisis looms, Mr Major insisted that he saw "no reason at all" for spending cuts this year, while the shadow chancellor, John Smith, said Mr Lamont had "blown apart" Mr Major's claims and his own Budget. Last night on the BBC Panorama programme, Neil Kinnock referred to Mr Major's economic programme as the "Bermuda triangle" and said: "Something has got to give, and he has yet to explain what." Even Mrs Thatcher joined in on ... This trailer offers a glimpse of the global warfare in the game, as players battle in the Bermuda Triangle, Siberia, the Amazon Rainforests, the Southwest United States and more. One of our more mischievous grandkids said he'd like to visit the Bermuda Triangle. When we finally quit laughing, we said, "We can work with that." After the epic Top 20 Games of 2010, here's a list of gaming let-downs **Alan Wake** (Remedy Entertainment, Xbox 360) This noir-esque "psychological action thriller" from Max Payne developer Remedy emerged blinking into the sunlight after no less than five years of development and vast hype. But despite its inclusion in the Guardian's Top 20 Games of 2010, I felt that a mediocre game hid beneath its pretentious literary epidermis. Sure, it was atmospheric, scary and cinematic, but it didn't half rub your face in it with a smug sense of self-satisfaction. The fight scenes were repetitive, the hyper-addictive gameplay that made Max Payne so special was nowhere in evidence, and between action sections you were force-fed vast chunks of sludgy and cliché-ridden story in video or sometimes even text format. In trying too hard to be an interactive literary experience, it totally forgot that it was supposed to be a game. Or even fun. **Alpha Protocol** (Obsidian Entertainment, PC, Xbox 360, PS3) Ugly and generic to look at, and annoying to play, this RPG from the makers of Knights of the Old Republic II, Neverwinter Nights and Fallout: New Vegas completely failed to live up ...
