Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: The Classic Regency Romance - Now with Ultraviolent Zombie Mayhem!
From one review -
"For more than 50 years, we learn, England has been overrun by zombies, prompting people like the Bennets to send their daughters away to China for training in the art of deadly combat, and prompting others, like Lady Catherine de Bourgh, to employ armies of ninjas. Added to the familiar plot turns that bring Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy together is the fact that both are highly skilled killers, gleefully slaying zombies on the way to their happy ending."
Sweet.

I found this website with a large array of incredible products. Like the double-edge throwing axe. Or the solar powered hat. But this is probably my favorite. And this.

This is an incredible animation of the eruption. It's made out of 29 photographs taken from the International Space Station.

Danah Boyd, a social media researcher, believes that the rise of Facebook and the abandonment of MySpace "… was modern day ‘white flight’.”
She goes on to explain how sites like MySpace and Facebook are mirroring, even magnifying, our social, political and class divides.
Personally, I dislike MySpace because it breaks one of the cardinal commandments of the internet - "Music shall not begin playing of its own accord" - plus, it makes my eyes bleed.
I rest my case.

Looks like she trashed his room and then said that he deserved it. Hmm...

This article exposes an egregious, underlying problem in America.

At $35/hr for advanced training, this guys sounds pretty serious...
"I'm 100% full blooded Korean, meaning I have been gifted with unparallel talent to master any video game, particularly, Starcraft: Brood War.
...
My lessons are offered to only non-Koreans or American born Koreans because they lack the blessing from the Gaming God, Norazi. Sun Tzu once said, "Defiler becomes useless at the presences of a vessel." You will be come the vessel against the defilers that treats you like a non-korean, laughing at your pitiful Starcraft skills...however, you will demolish them with the new profound skills."
The best part? - "Korean girls will be intrigued that you're such a good Starcraft player."

I'm certain I was the last to hear about this -
Evidently Iran is trying to hold off protests by airing a marathon showing of The Lord of the Rings trilogy on state television's Channel Two.
Sounds like a trap to me...

Evidently some members of the Japanese government are considering getting rid of cash in order to achieve negative nominal interest rates.
"In theory, many Japanese could easily make the leap into a cashless world. The country has six main competing cashless payment systems, many of them embedded into mobile phones. Including Oyster-type cards issued by public transport companies, industry sources estimate that there are about 120 million cashless payment chips sitting in Japan’s wallets and handbags, waiting to be swiped."

Yeah, this would be hilarious to put on a shelf. It's 1ft 7in. high.

Apparently PETA isn't happy with President Obama and his fly-swatting ways.
Are these people serious?

This is probably the coolest thing I've seen in a long time.

Interestingly enough, Archaeologists have found plenty of well-preserved graffiti at Pompeii. This page lists the location and the approximate British translation of each of the inscriptions throughout the site. (Just like its modern day counterpart, ancient graffiti was primarily written by the dregs of society. Before you click the link, consider yourself warned.)
Here are a few of my tamer favorites for those I scared off -
VI.16.15 (atrium of the House of Pinarius); 6842: If anyone does not believe in Venus, they should gaze at my girl friend
VIII.2 (in the basilica); 1816: Epaphra, you are bald!
VIII.2 (in the basilica); 1820: Chie, I hope your hemorrhoids rub together so much that they hurt worse than when they every have before!
VIII.2 (in the basilica); 1826: Phileros is a eunuch!
VIII.7.6 (Inn of the Muledrivers; left of the door); 4957: We have wet the bed, host. I confess we have done wrong. If you want to know why, there was no chamber pot
Herculaneum (on the exterior wall of a house); 10619: Apollinaris, the doctor of the emperor Titus, defecated well here

From a 1972 Ensign article on the history of Provo -
"Provo played host as the fifty-sixth annual general conference of the Church was convened in the tabernacle there (April 4 to 7, 1886), and again for the fifty-seventh annual conference (April 6 to 8, 1887). Young boys among the worshipers climbed to the rough-finished portions of the building and hung over the rafters, enjoying a view of the speakers and listening to their counsel until their young innards hurt."

You may or may not have seen this already, but Conan O'Brien's new back drop reminds a lot of people of Mario... Check it.

Fruit salad? What the...

This is an interesting article from the Washington Post details what happens when world renowned violinist Joshua Bell dressed down to play in a DC metro station.

This is a real class offered at Berkley that I hope will never make its way to BYU.

Make sure you watch the whole thing - the last half is a mind trip, man...
P.S. I want one of those cameras!
