Excitebots: Trick Racing
For: Nintendo Wii
From: Monster Games/Nintendo
ESRB Rating: Everyone (mild fantasy violence)
By Billy O'Keefe
McClatchy-Tribune (MCT)
For all the credit "Wii Sports" garners as the Wii's gateway drug, perhaps no Nintendo-branded game better demonstrates the benefits of motion controls than "Excite Truck," which launched
on the same day and aptly set itself apart from other racing games in ways no non-Wii game ever could.
The entirety of that game exists within "Excitebots: Trick Racing," which lifts the controls and methodology and inserts them into an entirely bizarre but blissfully fun racing experience starring giant, mechanized bugs and animals.

sprung up at the site of the accident
that claimed his life. Courier Photo Courier Staff Report
Friends and acquaintances of Juan "Johnny" Rodelas, who died from a car wreck Saturday, paid tribute to his memory Monday at the school where he was a popular and out-going 16-year-old junior, at the site of the horrific wreck that claimed his life, and in comments on The Courier's website.
“He will always be loved. I’ll miss him. He was like a best friend, someone I could trust and tell everything. He always knew how to make me smile,” said Logan junior Alyssa Segorini Monday afternoon.
“He was a good man. It’s sad to see him go, but God only takes the best,” said Robert Luke, a junior.

From wikipedia:
Lincoln Ellsworth (May 12, 1880 - May 26, 1951) was an explorer from the United States.
Son of James Ellsworth and Eva Frances Butler, he was born in Chicago, Illinois. He also lived in Hudson, Ohio as a child.
Arctic/North Pole exploration
Lincoln Ellsworth's father, James, a wealthy coal man from the United States, spent US$100,000 to fund Roald Amundsen's 1925 attempt to fly from Svalbard to the North Pole. The craft were forced down onto the ice short of their goal, and the explorers spent 30 days trapped on the surface.
