STAR WARS STORMTROOPER SUPER SHOGUN
The Star Wars Stormtrooper Super Shogun stands a whopping 24 inches tall, and includes all of the features that you expect from an authentic Jumbo: free rotating wheels on the bottom of his feet, and a spring-loaded Rocket Punch firing fist. Utilizing the same techniques implemented by Japanese toy manufacturers in the 1970s, the Super Shogun is constructed from durable, blow-molded polyethylene with a painted vinyl helmet. The figure is articulated at the neck and shoulders, and includes a removable, highly-detailed BlasTech E-11 laser blaster, which even features a posable stock that unfolds from below the barrel. This marks the first authentic Super Shogun produced in over twenty-five years.

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter.
Indiana, 1818. Moonlight falls through the dense woods that surround a one-room cabin, where a nine-year-old Abraham Lincoln kneels at his suffering mother's bedside. She's been stricken with something the old-timers call "Milk Sickness."
"My baby boy..." she whispers before dying.
Only later will the grieving Abe learn that his mother's fatal affliction was actually the work of a vampire.
When the truth becomes known to young Lincoln, he writes in his journal, "henceforth my life shall be one of rigorous study and devotion. I shall become a master of mind and body. And this mastery shall have but one purpose..." Gifted with his legendary height, strength, and skill with an ax, Abe sets out on a path of vengeance that will lead him all the way to the White House.
While Abraham Lincoln is widely lauded for saving a Union and freeing millions of slaves, his valiant fight against the forces of the undead has remained in the shadows for hundreds of years. That is, until Seth Grahame-Smith stumbled upon The Secret Journal of Abraham Lincoln, and became the first living person to lay eyes on it in more than 140 years.
Using the journal as his guide and writing in the grand biographical style of Doris Kearns Goodwin and David McCullough, Seth has reconstructed the true life story of our greatest president for the first time-all while revealing the hidden history behind the Civil War and uncovering the role vampires played in the birth, growth, and near-death of our nation..

Avatized sci-fi stars
If your first thought when you saw Ben Stiller as a Na'vi at the Oscars Sunday night, was "Gee, I wonder what every other Hollywood celebrity I've ever seen would like like Avatized," you're in luck, because that's exactly what Photoshop wizard Robert Paulson has been trying to do ever since James Cameron's blockbuster was released. (Source: SciFi.com)
"It used to take me around four hours to do the first ones, but now it takes me around two hours, using Photoshop on a PC," the 22-year old San Franciscan told the London Telegraph. "I must have spent over 200 hours on this project so far."
Though his wild celebrity makeovers are amazing, Paulson isn't entirely happy with them.
"I am still a perfectionist about it, though," he said. "I feel that I can never get the look of the yellow eyes, with their hypnotic irises and pupils, and the Na'vi's glowing dots to my satisfaction. Yet."
Well, we're satisfied, and we think you'll be, too, so head on over to Paulson's flickr stream for more Avatized stars.

Always Check Your Child’s Homework Before it Gets Turned In
A first grade girl handed in the drawing below for a homework assignment.
After it was graded and the child brought it home, she returned to school the next day with the following note:
Dear Mrs. Davis,
I wish to clarify that I am not now, nor have I ever been, an exotic dancer.
I work at Home Depot and I told my daughter how hectic it was last week before the blizzard hit. I told her we sold out every single shovel we had, and then I found one more in the back room, and that several people were fighting over who would get it. Her picture doesn't show me dancing around a pole. It's supposed to depict me selling the last snow shovel we had at Home Depot.
From now on I will remember to check her homework more thoroughly before she turns it in.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Harrington
