Japanese Hotel Loses $1.2 Million Gold Bathtub
Barry reports today that a glittering bathtub made of gold, worth Y120 million ($A1.21 million) has been stolen from a resort hotel near Tokyo.
A worker at Kominato Hotel Mikazuki in Kamogawa, south of Tokyo, notified police the fancy tub was missing from the hotel's guest bathroom on the 10th floor of its building, according to a local police official.
The round tub, 1.21 metres in diameter and 71 centimetres tall, was made of 18-karat gold weighing 80 kilograms, the official said.
The tub, flanked by two crane statues, has been a main feature of the hotel's shared bathroom.
Visitors can take a dip in the tub, but it is only available a few hours a day "for security reasons," the hotel's website said.
Someone apparently cut the chain attached to the door of a small section of the bathroom where the bathtub was placed, but not riveted, and made off with the tub, the police official said.
The cranes were left untouched.
"We have no witness information and there are no video cameras," the official said.
Anyone seeing a gold bathtub being lugged around the streets of Tokyo, is urged to contact local authorities immediately...;-)

I'll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like 'Mixview' that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you're listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of "neighbors" will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune "Social" is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

Between me and my husband we've owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I've settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

I should say, as much as I enjoyed reading what you had to say, I couldnt help but lose interest right after a while. Its as should you had a great grasp on the subject matter, but you forgot to include your readers. Perhaps you ought to feel about this from far more than one angle. Or maybe you shouldnt generalise so considerably. Its greater should you feel about what others could need to say rather than just going for a gut reaction to the subject. Think about adjusting your own thought procedure and giving others who may read this the benefit of the doubt.
