The Email Game
Most people respond well under pressure, so setting a clock when you're dealing with email can make decisions a bit easier. Try the email game. Though I'd suggest swapping points for beers. Or just toughen up in general.

HBO 2 GO
It's US-only of course, but HBO's new iPad app looks pretty impressive for catching up with your favourite shows from the comfort of your bed/toilet/plane.
Fingers crossed that Sky Atlantic might release something similar. And that it doesn't cost an extra £10 a month.

Another Miracle
The excellent Miracle Fortress have a new record on the horizon - Was I The Wave? It should be landing in the UK soon, but you can pick up a copy now, direct from their website.

The Scouting Book For Boys
Beautifully shot but disappointingly underdeveloped, over-serious UK indie flick.

West Wars
Never been much of a fan of dolls for boys, but I like the idea behind Sillof Workshop's West Wars - re-imagining, or (should that be un-imagining) Star Wars as a western.

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
Mindless derivative actioner ...though the tone is often more 'Life of Brian' than 'Gladiator'.

Watt + Grohl + Vedder + Smear
Mike Watt wrapped up his US tour in Seattle this week - and in a throwback to his epic 90's feats album "Ballhog or Tugboat?", he was joined on stage by Dave Grohl, Eddie Vedder and Pat Smear for a run through of Big Train, followed by an extended, enthusiastic jam. Dave Grohl rules it.
A suitably excited fan filmed the performance.
