Like you needed one.
It tracks your cursor anywhere on your screen, even when it's minimized along with the shift, control and alt key statuses.  It also exposes all this data for anything on the page to see and use with the right code -- which is apparently only 21 lines long.  Live demo here.  (Obviously it only works on IE.)  According to the security analyst who discovered this, at least two ad firms are actively using this misfeature to track web users' every movement.

So, who else watched?  And how long did you last?
I made it as far as halfway through Paul McCartney before I fell over from exhaustion (lots of running about doing necessary tasks last night with the concert as BGM).
A few thoughts:
Who else thinks watching Roger Daltrey last night was like watching the Jon Pertwee Doctor singing rock'n'roll?
When did Billy Joel turn into Bruce Willis?  Was he wearing a toupe the last few years he was still touring, or did he lose all his hair suddenly sometime in the last few years?
Best line of the night came from Billy Crystal:  "You can feel the electricy everywhere, which means Long Island Power has nothing to do with it."  (Paraphrased, I can't remember the exact wording.  For those who don't know, the Long Island Power Authority, aka LIPA, not only has the most antiquidated power system on the East Coast, it acted like it had the Three Stooges in charge during the weeks after the storm. In fact, yesterday I heard on the news that it turned out they had no disaster plan at all.  None.)
Great speech by Jon Stewart.  Seaside Heights is my childhood shore town, too, so every word he said was echoed in my heart.  I know all the places he talked about going to.  I know all the feelings he spoke about.

BTW - in case you guys are interested, this is the URL of a blog from one of the mecha designers of 2199. He often posts pics of schematics and real finished images from his works on the show. Sometimes he posts speculative ideas about how to design certain things. 

What's really convenient is that he posts both in Japanese AND in English! His English is not perfect. He may be using a translator program. But it's clear enough to get the gist of what he's talking about, particularly on some of the more technical items. And since you're going there for the mechanical stuff anyway, that's just fine. 

What's REALLY cool about his site though, is his design work that is based off of the design aesthetic from both the classic and new series, but is obviously not ever going to be "official". He likes to take designs and push them to the Nth degree. Or speculate on what a ship design would look like in the far future of the Yamato Universe. Or he posts pictures of specialized craft like recon planes, fast attack destroyers and battleships. Command ships bristling with antennae but few weapons. Missile boats. Space submarines. And other things. 

Here's a few examples of some of the best of his recent works and some of his earlier schematic speculations. 

If you have not done so already you will need to Link your Cryptic account to a Perfect World Account to continue playing champions.
http://co.perfectworld.com/news/?p=777061 there is the blog post speaking about this, they've been trying to get players to do this for a while now but the cutoff is today, you will not be able to log onto champions untill your linked if you haven't already.

So, I was thinking... costume creator might be possible...

YEEEEEEESSS!!! 

And here's the direct download! 

http://repo.cohtitan.com/icon/icon.exe

Stick it in your COH program directory and run it from there. It boots the client directly into the character creator! 

There are a few "bugs" still. It doesn't load veteran costume pieces like the samurai set or trenchcoats, or sadly - angel wings. Ironically, that pretty much leaves ALL my mains out in the cold. But you can at least VIEW them from the "Saved Costumes" load screen!

This is a FANTASTIC step forward!

So, DH glowing King's Cross, Dumbledore outright says it's all in Harry's head, but there are three beings there - an old man, an adult, and a mangledy baby, supposedly Voldie's soul fragment. But, all the other horcruxes reflected his age when they were made, and diary Tom was described as looking quite like Harry... Now assume a fanon Evil Albus. Doesn't it make more sense that the discussion is Dumbledore's horcrux playing Tom's, as part of a Xanatos Gambit plan to negate the prophesy that would have

Anyone who's a fan of Baen's ebooks should take a quick check of their site. 

Things are going to be changing in a big way by the end of this week.

How things are going to work from now on:

1) Monthly bundles will remain available at their discounted price ($18/bundle) until that month's actual publication date. All older bundles will go away as of 12/15.

2) All already-purchased books will remain available for download. Baen will not change their policies on format availability or DRM.

3) After the publication date, books will be available for individual purchase. Books currently available only in hardcover will cost $9.99, books currently available in MMPB will cost $6.99

4) After the publication date, books will be available for purchase at the same prices from the Amazon Kindle store. Books purchased through Amazon will be subject to Amazon's usual policies regarding licensing, availability, revocability, and DRM.

5) Most items have been removed from the Baen Free Library. "Second Editions" of these books will be released by Baen and through Amazon later in their publishing schedule. These will have some form of added content and will be marketed at their usual prices. At the time of release of the second edition the original version will be restored to the BFL.

6) Third-party bundles sold through Baen but not published by them will be unchanged.

Proof positive that with sufficient motivation, you can make anything explode.

Here's a guide I've worked up showing how to modify the HUD/UI. I'm reposting it here. 

You can rearrange the UI in Champions. You can also change the overall scale of everything. 

Here - step by step - 

First - here's the unmodified HUD/UI.



Hit your "F12" key to access the HUD/UI alteration interface. This is what it looks like initially after hitting F12.



Each of those green boxes can be moved individually. Here - I've moved the powers tray from the bottom of the screen off to the right. 



Additionally, most of them can be individually re-scaled like you can with windows boxes (place pointer at edge until you get a double-arrow and the pull in the direction you want). Here below I've changed the scale of the two mini-map boxes in the upper right hand corner. 



And here's the end result - 



You can also change the overall scale of the HUD/UI. Hit "ESC" to get this menu. 



Then choose options. On the very first tab labeled "Basic" look at the bottom. There's a "Interface Scale" Meter. Change it to taste. 



For our example here, let's ramp it down to 65% and see what it looks like. 



Okay, that gets a lot of stuff out of the way, but leaves our chat box and type setting a little small to see. 

No worries, you can directly drag and re-size this window, then right-click on the chat tabs and go to the "Options" tab. There's a "Font-Size" slider. Ramp it up until it suits you. 

Voila!



So using a combination of all of those, you can modify the UI a lot. I don't think you can change the COLOR of the UI unfortunately. 

I hope this helps everyone out!

Specifically, ABBA's "Head Over Heels."
Head Over Heels (1981)

Benny Andersson & Björn Ulvaeus

I have a very good friend
The kind of girl who likes to follow a trend
She has a personal style
Some people like it, others tend to go wild
You hear her voice everywhere
Taking the chair
She's a leading lady
And with no trace of hesitation she keeps going
Refrain:  Head over heels
Breaking her way
Pushing through unknown jungles every day
She's a girl with a taste for the world
(The world is like a playing-ground where she goes rushing)
Head over heels
Setting the pace
Running the gauntlet in a whirl of lace
She's extreme, if you know what I mean

Her man is one I admire
He's so courageous but he's constantly tired
Each time when he speaks his mind
She pats his head and says, "That's all very fine
Exert that will of your own
When you're alone
Now we'd better hurry"
And with no trace of hesitation she keeps going
Refrain

You hear her voice everywhere
Taking the chair
She's a leading lady
And with no trace of hesitation she keeps going
RefrainCoda (She's just one of those who always has to do whatever she please)
And she goes
Head over heels.
If Doug ever, in canon as opposed to omake, meets Suzumiya Haruhi, this song will create a three minute, forty-five second simulacrum (with, thanks to the second stanza, Kyon dragged along to deliver weapons-grade snark and maybe direct her unrecognized powers against an enemy).  Once the Loon realizes that, he'll probably put the song under the Do-Not-Play lock.
Edit:  ABBA's "SOS" will, of course, summon simulacra of the entire Brigade.  This is a gamebreaker, because the Nagato Yuki simulacrum would have Yuki's conscious godlike powers (unless Doug never found out about them).
By the way, "Hungry Like the Wolf" by Duran Duran should probably either produce a simulacrum of a werewolf with whom Doug's on friendly terms, or turn the Loon into a werewolf (immunities and weaknesses both, but it doesn't force him to do evil things) only for the duration of the song. Depending on what version he uses, this duration is 3 minutes 41 seconds, 4 minutes 11 seconds, or 5 minutes 14 seconds.
