Do you have what it takes to leap, bounce and launch your way across a bridge of Big Balls? Are you brave enough to walk across a narrow ledge while boxing gloves jab at your face and stomach? You've watched so many before you fall, flail and flop in agonizing defeat as they took their turn on the hit TV show Wipeout. Now it's up to you to put your limits to the test as you bring the world's biggest, wildest obstacle course wherever you go with Wipeout: The Game.

Bundle up — it is time to glide and slip into a sparkling winter adventure. The snow glistens, the ice gleams, the snowman talks and — wait, the snowman talks? Yes, meet Olaf, the bemusedly befuddled and comically carefree snowman of Disney's new musical fantasy, Frozen. From the animation studio that brought you Tangled, The Little Mermaid and Wreck-It Ralph, Olaf takes you on a magical journey through snowy scenes and chilly challenges, as you learn what happens after the conclusion of the new film. Step into a wintry wonderland anytime and anywhere with Frozen: Olaf's Quest on your Nintendo 3DS. Use Olaf's frigid, yet fluid form to escape slippery situations and explore 60 imaginative levels packed with puzzles. Along the way, help him uncover hidden collectibles and side challenges and unlock special customizable items. Become a part of the fun and delightful story, as you solve the puzzles and race and leap around the Frozen landscape. But don't forget a big thermos of hot cocoa — because the whole family will want to join in the fun of Olaf's rewarding Quest.

I bought this to replace a four year old Kenmore unit that did not meet my expectations and eventually stopped working after the circuit board went bad due to poor design apparently. It is very quiet as opposed to the replaced unit and does a fine job of washing dishes. Even with hardened food particles on them.

Photo Black 564 cartridge okay to use in HP Photosmart 6510?

I'm confused. Which Black 564 cartridge should I use in my Photosmart 6510. I print photos almost exclusively.
The printer should have a list of cartridges needed for specific tasks but I believe that the black is required in all printers for any text, while there are usually tri-color cartridges or photo quality cartridges for the colors. It depends on each models requirements as shown in the manual. If you don't have a manual, you can download it from the HP website.

Message: Ink cartridge appears to be missing

On my Photosmart C6300 I replaced the three color cartridges and the black XL. I'm now getting a message that the Photo Black is missing -- although I had not had one in that slot befor. It printed fine without the Photo Black, but now I just get the error message and nothing will print. BTW, I never print photos, so I have never replaced that cartridge since the original one ran out years ago.
Most HP printers will not work without all of the cartridges in place as the printer needs to recognize that the proper ones are in place before you can print anything. I am not sure if there was a glitch that allowed you to print without the black cartridge being installed, but I have had brand new cartridges that the printer would not recognize after installing them. Each cartridge has a tiny circuit strip on it that may be damaged. Try using a different cartridge and return the one that doesn't work. I don't know about you, but stuff like this happens to me when I have the least amount of time for it.

PS3 model CECH-2101A (120V) purchased in the U.S. for use in chile (220V)

They gave me a PS3 bought in USA CECH-2101A model (120 GB). and its power is 120 V AC, 60 Hz, power consumption 250 W. There is a rumor that all who come to Chile PS3 are multi-voltage, but I do not.
In Chile, the current is 220V. To be cautious, I bought a transformer of 220 V -110 V, power consumption 500 W and my PS3 will not start.

If they are multi-voltage, had not had problems, but does not start and I dare to connect to 220 V.
In the instruction manual there is no information regarding that does not turn having a transformer for 110 v
What can be the problem??
You have to be sure that the voltage is correct and that the polarity is correct also. If you have a multimeter you can check this easily by putting the selector dial to the correct voltage range and placing the probe tips inside the female plug end. You should show 120 volts A/C plus or minus 10% of required voltage. The hertz may be different also. I am not sure what they are in Chile. Check some of your other appliances and see what those readings are. Lastly, if the system has been plugged into any other power supply than what is required, you may have already damaged the system. Once the smoke comes out, it is impossible to put it back in. I hope this helps.
