So today I finally decided to swing by the 7-Eleven turned Kwik-E-Mart in New York City today. It was amazing how much work was actually put into this - they had everything from KrustyO’s to Buzz Cola to 7-Eleven employees wearing Apu’s uniform. Pure marketing genius

Amazing! This is the first time in an ODI that anyone has hit six 6s in a single over. Granted the ground was not that big nor is Scotland the strongest cricket team, but you have to give Gibbs credit for this:

A lot of people have posted the following Calvin and Hobbes comic as an authentic strip, but unfortunately it’s not. I say unfortunately because it has a very profound message:

Let’s say you want to change the reservation on your flight or you want to talk to a customer service rep about mysterious charges on your cell phone bill. Most likely you’ll have to cycle through a dozen prompts, often being asked questions that you will be asked later by a customer service rep anyway. After about 10 minutes of trying to talk to a computer you are finally get through to a real person. Wouldn’t it be nice to how to talk to a human right away? Well gethuman.com has a database of companies and how to get through to to a real life customer service representative.

Now if only there was a way to make sure you could connect to someone in the same hemisphere as you.

Here is the nasheed and the lyrics from the video that I posted yesterday:
[audio:Nasheed_Yaadheeman_Ahmed_Bukhatir.mp3]
Ya Adheeman (Oh Most Magnificent!)
My soul is brightened by a light in my heart
When I praised God of mankind
And my soul is cheered up and the tears were flowing
Oh God! guide my heart to reason
In the tranquility of the night I pray during worshiping
While the black darkness is all around me
Oh Kind! Oh Most Merciful! Oh Most Forbearing!
Oh Kind! Your gifts are endless
Oh All-Hearing! Oh Answerer! Oh Most Magnificent!
Oh Creator of the strong predatory animals! Guide me
Guide me to truth, God
I depend on your guidance today
Oh God of the universe! You are my aid
You are the refuge of man in the afterworld
Here I am God, asking your forgiveness
Forgive me and grant me my wish
يا عظيماً
أشــرقــت نــفــســي بـنـور من فؤادي حــيــنــمــا رددت يــا رب الـعباد
وانتشت روحي وصار الدمع يجري يـــا الـــهـــي خـــذ بــقـــلبي للرشاد
في ســكــون الـلـيـل أدعو في سجودي والدجى حولي سواد في سوادي
يــــا رؤوفـــا يـــا رحــيــمــا يــا حليما يا كريما مــا لــفضــلك مــن نـــفاد
يـــا سمـــيعـــا يــا مـــجــيــبـا يا عظيما أهــدنــي يـا خالق السبع الشداد
لـــلــهــدى والــحـــق وفــقــنـي الهي فــعــلــى تــوفيقك اليوم اعتمادي
يـــا الــه الـــكون يـــا عــــونــي وغوثي يـــا مــــلاذ الـــخــلـق في يوم المعاد
هـــا أنــا يـــا رب أرجو منك عفوا فـاعـفو عن ذنبي وحقق لي مراد

Here’s a great link to create your own personal avatar online. This flash applications can be used to build a face including modifcations to the eyes, hair, mouth, etc. The email feature does not work so you will probably have to do a printscreen and paste the image in Photoshop.

This is by far one of the coolest things I have seen in a while. This band called Corporeal plays the Halo Theme. This is almost exactly like the original.
