/General Motors CEO Rick Wagoner has arrived in Washington to deliver testimony at Senate hearings
scheduled for today and tomorrow, and as we a

yesterday/a, his transportation this time was not a private jet, but rather a series hybrid a

Escape Hybrid/a, while Chrysler CEO Bob Nardelli made the trip in a Chrysler Aspen Hybrid. UAW
President Ron Gettelfinger flew down, but on a commercial flight (he never had a private jet in the
first place and it likely would've been awkward if he chose one automaker's vehicle over the other
two).br /br /Testimony will be given by the four men and a number of other witnesses today and
tomorrow, though it still appears as if there aren't enough votes in the Senate to get federal aid
for the automakers passed immediately. Even if aid in the form of government loans is approved,
there's still the matter of where the money will come from. The only two options on the table are
converting $25 billion in already approved loans for investment in green technology to be used by
the automakers to keep their businesses afloat, or carving out the money from the $700 billion in
aid that Congress has already approved for the financial industry. We'll be keeping an eye on
what's happening in Washington today and tomorrow, so stay tuned.br /br /[Photo by Win

The MAKE/CDM/Etsy sonic fun-derland event returns - this time @ our new location, Third Ward in East Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NY! Kicking off the new
monthly schedule, the first meet-up will be Thursday, Dec. 11th. Peter of CDM gives details
-Bonus – Make Your Own Beep-It Optical Theremin. For the cost
of parts (about $10), Mike Una is giving a workshop – no experience required,
and you’ll leave with your own Beep-It. (Space is limited!)
Double Bonus – You! We’re looking for hardware and
software projects to share.
Not in New York? Stay tuned – we’ll have some ways to
join up live online with both the CDM community and the Etsy community.
Party: 7-10p, 12/11 (snacks/drinks + lots of sounds for everyone, from
non-musicians to hardcore musical hackers!)
Make Your Own Beep-It Workshop: 7:30-8:30p (arrive promptly!)
Here’s what the event is about, as described by, well, me:
Part party, part mixer, part Science Fair, and part performance, this is an informal chance for
geeksters and the geek-curious to come together, relax, and discover new sounds. The evening is a
gathering of inventors of circuit-bent toys, custom software and patches, interactive digital
& visual instruments, custom electronics, electricity-powered noisemakers, DIY robots and new
acoustic instruments. And it’s open to everyone from hard-core hackers & newcomers to
music lovers who want to learn about the DIY music scene.
And here’s a big bonus: if you liked Michael Una’s Beep-It DIY optical Theremin, as
debuted here, you can make your own for the low, low price of parts: about ten bucks.
Michael Una will demonstrate his optical theremin synthesizer Beep-it and conduct a workshop
wherein attendees will build their own optical theremin. The basics of analog synthesis will be
discussed. No skill level is required- all tools and parts will be provided by the participation
fee.
Pay for your parts by Wednesday 12/10, and reserve your spot at the workshop, at
EventBrite: http://beepit.eventbrite.com/
Logo design by the amazing creator of the CDM logos and endless musical posters, Nat aka onetonnemusic.
See you next week, in New York or online!
We welcome people showing up with gear and creations at the last minute –
bring cables, an extension cord, and (if you’ve got it) small speakers / headphones / PA
(though we’ll do our best to provide some sound). But it does help to know who’s
coming if you want to give us some advance warning, and we can help publicize your work in
advance. Head over to Create Digital Music to fill out the
project submission form. I'm quite psyched for this - it's been a while since the last event
and this one looks to be fully awesome!

OXM UK is reporting that Rock Band 2 to get a new instrument. Guesses are that it could be
something small like extra cymbals or the long-rumoured keyboard peripheral. The confirmation came
in the review guide that accompanied OXM UK's copy, which contains a note about the extra
connection on the back of the updated drum kit. "The Rock Band 2 drum set has a second input on it
(the bottom one with the orange ring) that is an expansion port," it reads. "It was stated in prior
interviews/demos that this input was a jack for the second kick pedal, which is not the case." It
goes on to say that Harmonix "has not revealed the fucntionality for this input," and it will "be
announced at a later date, along with further details for double-kick functionality. Stay tuned!"

id="tag" title="FFVII character designer"Tetsuya Nomura/a, senior director Takeshi Arakawa,
planning director Mitsunori Takahashi, main programmer Ryuji Ikeda).brbrMost of the details above
remain the same though. We just get more clarifications on certain manners. On the other side of
things though, they made matters even worse by hinting at unspoken things. I think it's an
unwritten rule somewhere in Game Development 101 that torturing the fans with sentences ending in
ellipses and what not is perfectly OK. Sigh. On with the show!brbrOn the introduction of Shantotto,

style="padding-left: 40px; padding-right: 40px;"span style="font-weight: bold;"Takahashi:/span
There were assorted candidates to choose from [in span style="font-style: italic;"FFXI/span], like
Prishe. We wound up asking the span style="font-style: italic;"FFXI/span fans on the staff what
character would make them the most happy to see in the game, and they all said "something
Tarutaru"! Shantotto wound up being the choice from the Tarutaru available. They're a small target
to strike, so balancing their hit detection was a difficult process -- we can't let Shantotto have
a unique advantage, so we were messing with her right to the very end./pbrSo where are the span

of the span style="font-style: italic;"FFXI/span player-characters was one of the surprises we've
given people in interviews from the beginning of the project. As for span style="font-style:

style="font-style: italic;"FFXIII/span character, but having one debut in span style="font-style:

affecting span style="font-style: italic;"FFXIII/span in the process. As a result, we couldn't get

all 100 levels and the equipment they may be carrying. It took a long time, and there's really no
good ending point to it, but I think we're pretty confident about the results. /pspan

as it has just shown up on the FCC’s website. Based on the information that is available, the
Shadow II should be rather similar to the original Shadow, though it will sport improvements such
as Windows Mobile 6.1, a faster processor, and a curvier design. The user manual also shows
separate battery life for GSM and UMA, which should be a big hint that it will support
T-Mobile’s UMA-based Unlimited HotSpot Calling service. Other features of the phone include a
2.6-inch QVGA display, scroll wheel, 2 megapixel camera, slide-out keyboard, Wi-Fi, microSD card
and quad-band GSM/EDGE. While specification details are aplenty, there isn’t a release date
mentioned just yet, so stay tuned!/p pPermalink: a

Over the past weeks, we’ve been reading lots of forum posts, comments to blog posts and news posts
and even heard questions coming into our consumer services hotlines. To better serve the community,
we’ve decided to provide a weekly update on the hot topics and answer the burning questions
you all have.
First off, wanted to introduce ”Sam_Protagonist” to everyone.
He’s our global community manager for LittleBigPlanet and
our eyes and ears for all things community. You can find him interacting on the EU and US forums
providing updates to the community. Keep a look out for his forum posts and occasional LBP News Site posts for the latest
updates.
So for our first installment of ‘SACK IT TO ME’ - we’ve
decided to summarize some of the major topics the community wants answered…
Moderation
The level moderation process is something we’re continually improving. The small percentage
of levels moderated have been done so after the community has reported them using the Good Grief
tool. We never moderate levels that have not been reported in this way. The vast majority of
moderated levels were due to offensive material, however we are evolving the way moderation happens
to ensure that creators are made aware of why their level was blocked. More to come shortly. Servers
We hope you’ve noticed that over the past few weeks, we’ve been working away and our
servers are now much improved - from the updated scoreboards to the connection speeds. Just know
we’re constantly looking to improve the experience and your feedback has been very helpful.
Additionally, below are a few online stats for your viewing pleasure:
# of user generated (UG) levels = 177,657
# of comments = 1,093,491
# of times Story levels have been played online = 36,661,881
# of times UG levels have been played online = 22,463,892
# of levels played online = 59,125,403
Play Create Share stats & Search Functionality
Now that the servers are stable, we’ll continue to improve the
”Share” experience. We’ve heard your requests to get better
search functionality to find levels and getting the PLAY, CREATE, SHARE stats up and running on the
Info Moon and have put this on the top of our list. So stay tuned for a few announcements
In the meantime, there are a few ‘other’ ways to find some cool
levels:
LittleBigChallenge: PS3 Second Anniversary Updates
We’ve been excited to see all the posted “LBC1″ level submissions for our first
in-game LittleBigChallenge, so much that we wanted to share a few of the ones that caught our
eye. After reading the forums, looks like we struck a nerve with a few of you thinking these
updates are unfair publicity to the selected. Wanted to re-assure you that our intention to
highlight a few of these levels, is to celebrate the creation of a variety of levels from a variety
of creators - NOT to indicate any frontrunners or winners. Judging is completely separate from
these updates and the evaluation of these levels will take into consideration a creators
creativity, game design, innovation, use of tools, etc - NOT just “hearts” and
“plays”.
As an insight to the evaluation process, we plan to first collect the formal e-mail submissions,
list out the levels w/ various stats (on the server side), then have our judges spend a few days to
play thru and judge levels and award the top 5 creators for this challenge.
Also, check back on Friday where we’ll list out the submissions-to-date, so you can spend the
weekend playing the Challenge levels. Day 1 T-shirt
Finally, some of you are wondering what happened to the Day 1 T-Shirt mentioned in the past. This
was available in other countries for (equivalent of) $4.99, but we decided to hold back its
availability in North America as we evaluate if such a unique item (RARE + $4.99 + time-based) is
appropriate for our PS
Store. There may be other RARE items like this in the future, so check back on future DLC
announcements.
… We hope this answers your current batch of questions. Comment away below and let us know
what else questions you want answered for next weeks batch…
The story I tell is derived from an episode of "The Amanda Show" that used to come on Nick. Drake
Bell, who was dressed as a gangster, told the same story Big Falcor tells. I am not trying to
break copyright laws, so I added my own little bit. Check it out. Stay tuned for more. For more
information about upcoming Big Falcor videos, go to http://www.youtube.com/bigfalcor.
DATELINE TOONTOWN. President-elect Bam Bam has announced a slate of Cabinet appointments, declaring
that "this new generation of leadership" will mix a few popular characters from the past along with
"many less familiar faces who are getting their first opportunity in a leading role." At a press
conference, the President-elect explained that the new appointees were put through a rigorous
examination of their public and private lives, and that all were found to have "rock-solid
reputations." He praised his new team, calling them "a bedrock for change." The most anticipated
announcement of the day was the confirmation of Wilma Rockham Flintstone as his selection for the
next Secretary of State. Here's the complete rundown of all the appointments announced over the
past week: Secretary of State - Wilma Rockham Flintstone This appointment shows how close the ties
between family and party are in Toontown. Bam Bam used to party with the Flintstone's daughter,
Pebbles, and his father, Barney Rubble, worked with Wilma's husband, Fred, in the excavation
business. Most analysts are wondering what the appointment means for Fred Flintstone. Fred, who
first uttered the words "hit the ground running", is still very popular around the world; and he
likes the attention. But he has a big mouth. Bam Bam said today that "Wilma Flintstone is an
American of tremendous stature" and that he has "complete confidence in her character and
judgement." He cited her experience in dealing with domestic affairs, which has prepared her for
"her new role in protecting the nation's interests abroad." Treasury Secretary - Richie Rich Rich,
who has fallen on hard times lately, beat out Top Cat for the appointment. Reportedly,
President-elect Bam Bam never felt comfortable around such a street-smart character. He thought
that Rich's recent misfortunes, which have moved him back to the middle-class, might stir sympathy
for the plight of the average American. Also, Rich really does need the job. Dept of Homeland
Security -- Yosemite Sam With his hot-temper and first-hand knowledge of the southwestern border
states, Yosemite Sam promises to bring "straight-talk" to immigration policy in America. He is not
expected to duck from any aspect of this tough issue in the media or in Congress. However, many
analysts think that because Sam's likely to come out with all his guns a-blazing, he is also a
likely candidate for an early exit from the Bam-Bam administration. Attorney General -- Huckleberry
Hound With considerable experience as a small-town Sheriff, this homely, homespun character with a
Southern drawl is expected to restore the department's reputation as an honest defender of justice.
President-elect Bam Bam said that he appreciated Huckleberry Hound's true-blue nature but added:
"he is as sly as a dog." Supposedly, Ricochet Rabbit was also under consideration. Secretary of
Education -- Mister Peabody The bespectacled inventor of the Wayback Machine, Peabody originated
the phrase "no child left behind" during his time-travelling expeditions with young Sherman.
Peabody has agreed to re-invent American education for the 21st Century. Many think he is capable
of doing this single-handedly, if he's allowed to do so by teachers, parents and bureaucrats.
Secretary of Defense -- Baba Looey Longtime deputy secretary to Quick Draw McGraw (aka El Kabong),
Looey has been demonstrating his considerable brain-power behind the scenes in Toontown for
decades. Now Looey is the first Mexican-born burro to hold a senior-level cabinet post.
Unfortunately, the generals are already complaining about having to answer to another person with a
funny name. Secretary of Labor -- Hardy Har Har Worked for years under Lippy the Lion and LBJ, Har
Har is known to be rather down-in-the-mouth and pessimistic. This made him a good choice for a
Labor Department, which must figure out how to put Americans back to work -- no laughing matter,
indeed. Secretary of Energy -- vacant. There has been little speculation on the names under
consideration for running the Energy Department, although the Drudge Report is saying that Bart
Simpson's name has come up more than once. Secretary of Commerce -- Magilla Gorilla Citing years of
experience in Mister Peebles' Pet Store, Magilla Gorilla is familiar with the struggles of
small-town shopowners, a vanishing breed in an era where people are busily stampeding through
Wal-Marts. President-elect Bam Bam is encouraging his new Secretary of Commerce to throw his weight
around. Secretary of Veterans Affairs -- General Flap One of the pitifully few African-Americans
living in Toontown, Lt. Flap distinguished himself in the war working with Beetle Bailey, starting
in 1961, and now he finally receives this overdue promotion to a top job. In a town that worries
more about equal representation of cats and dogs, this is progress. Secretary of Transportation --
Motormouse or Penelope Pitstop. One of the few appointments left undecided, the next Secretary of
Transportation will either be the quiet but very quick Motormouse or the wealthy heiress, Ms.
Pitstop, who has escaped many a predicament in her melodramatic career. Neither is expected to play
a major role in the next administration. Secretary of Health and Human Services -- Olive Oyl Known
for her good heart but lacking much on-the-job experience, Olive must tackle day-to-day management
of a large department that could suffer brutal cutbacks. She is said to be focusing on childhood
obesity and she's considering the possibility of banning wimpy burgers. It will also be important
that she distance herself from her husband, known for the rap song "I Yam What I Yam" and violent
rages induced by his vegetarian diet. Secretary of the Environment -- Chilly Willy or Wally Gator.
This one is still a toss-up. The choice is between directing attention to the thawing Artic or the
storm-tossed Louisiana swamp. Bam Bam is probably leaning towards Chilly Willy because of growing
concern over global warming, along with a secret preference for Klondike bars. Secretary of
Agriculture -- Porky Pig This ageless character comes out of retirement for one last spin on the
world's stage. He comes from farm country so it will be interesting to see if he can be strong
enough to roll back huge f-f-farm s-s-subs-s-s-idies. National Security Advisor -- Johnny Quest
After a promising start to his career, Quest has finally achieved the senior-level position that
many thought would come much earlier. He not only knows each region's hot spots but he's lived in
each of them and found ways to survive on his own. Whether that qualifies him for the politically
charged environment of Toontown remains to be seen. Many believe there is a role in national
security for veteran Clutch Cargo but lips are sealed on this one. There is also talk that Yakky
Doodle will be the next press secretary. Finally, Uncle Scrooge is said to be close to accepting a
role as President-elect Bam-Bam's top economic adviser. The sage skinflint, Scrooge is dusting off
