Paint Mister Chief Day
Hawty McBloggy is running a fun art activity - swing by and create a Halloween-themed Mister Chief image! As Frankie has said numerous times, drawing Mister Chief takes absolutely no artistic skill - so anybody can play!

I was looking for Lilo...
Back in mid-September, Hawty McBloggy mentioned a Halo-themed cross-stitch pattern she was planning on making. Looks like it's done. I can't say I agree with the sentiment... but hey, everybody has their own way of showing affection. (Louis Wu 19:58:30 UTC)

Flood Insurance
Mingadolin ran across a Halo-themed t-shirt at J!NX - some of our forum members are unimpressed. I'd have to agree that the weapons are rather stylized. Update: Digipatd pointed out that this shirt made our news back in December. Oops! (Louis Wu 13:54:37 UTC)

Halo Funnies around the net
A couple of Halo-related comics for you - OddGodHMK pointed out that Boring Comics #9 has a Halo theme, and iJosh uncovered an old Dork Tower with a Halo-related punchline. (Louis Wu 19:30:42 UTC)

Halo undergarments?
Hmm... this is a little odd. Gemini Ace has a pic of a couple of pairs of Halo-themed boxers and lounge pants found at Kohl's (a nationwide department store chain). A little searching found the lounge pants for sale on eBay (just under 7 days remaining) - no luck on another source for the boxers, though. Thanks, t4ng0. Update: s_tygard55 is sharper than I am - he went to kohls.com and found both the lounge pants and the boxers, for much less than that eBay auction. (Louis Wu 15:17:00 UTC)

Happy Bungie Day!
It's July 7, Bungie Day - and Cold Storage is available for download right now. (One potential gotcha - it's only available for Gold accounts at the moment. If you've got a Silver account, you either need to upgrade, or "check again in a few days" (according to the Marketplace blurb). I don't know what "a few days" translates to. I guess this is really only a problem for folks planning to use extra Xboxes in a LAN party today...) The map really is gorgeous, and (mostly) true to its predecessor. (The small place to hide with the ball, under the walkway in the back room, is gone... but everything else I can remember is there.) Go grab a copy - the new Bungie Day playlist is up as well, so you can get in some FFA action on this puppy right away! Go to the Xbox Live Marketplace blade, select 'New Arrivals', then 'Games', then 'Halo 3'. The Bungie Day Gamerpics, free Theme, and the ViDoc in HD are there, as well. (Louis Wu 13:50:20 UTC)

High Ground Battle Ground - in 3D (Two Flavors)
Hawty McBloggy found another Halo-themed 3D Steregraphic video - this one shows some cool action on High Ground, and if crossing your eyes is too much work, there's a section of the video that let's you see the action with standard 3D Glasses (Red and Blue lenses). Check it out1 (Louis Wu 13:41:45 UTC)

Halo-themed Custom Guitar
Hawty McBloggy pointed out an amazing guitar she found at the Halo Museum (a site, by the way, that I'd never heard of, but that has some pretty fun stuff in it) - go check out the story of this custom-painted, Halo-themed, flame-bodied, Steve-Vai-signed guitar!

UMGSO played Halo
Bryan Ojeda noticed that the University of Maryland's Gamer Symphony Orchestra played the Halo 3 theme at last year's Fall Concert - you can hear it on their website. (Forumgoers are giving it low marks; see if you agree!) (Louis Wu 14:13:28 UTC)

Number One with a Whip
A few months ago, we mentioned a plan by Universal music to find some monks to record an album, after Halo's theme song revved up the public demand for chanting. Apparently, they succeeded - and the album is climbing the European charts as we speak. Thanks, Anton P. Nym. (Louis Wu 08:58:22 UTC)

Finishing the Fight, Redux
For anyone who has trouble with YouTube, Davis Beutler uploaded a higher-quality direct-download version of his playing of the Finish the Fight theme at his school (we mentioned this yesterday). You can grab a copy from his forum post. (Louis Wu 19:22:03 UTC)

Halo Wars' Sonic Duo
The Halo Wars RTS group over at Bungie.net interviewed Kevin McMullan and JD Smith, the Audio Lead and Senior Audio Designer, respectively, for Halo Wars. It's a two-parter; Part 1 and Part 2 are both open to the public. (There doesn't seem to be a 'theme' to either part, so I'd guess this was split up for space reasons.) There's a fun audio snippet (and its source) at the end of Part 2. Thanks to Planet Halo for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 14:57:58 UTC)

Halo Leopard Dock
Davis Beutler created a Halo-themed Dock for OSX Leopard. You can see pictures of it in use, and find download links, in his forum post. (We've mirrored the actual content, as well.) (Louis Wu 14:59:53 UTC)

Input and Output
Some nice goodies over in Hawty McBloggy's little corner of the net - she found a fun site that shows you what might get lost in translation... and while her Halo 3 pickup lines might lose some of their efficacy, they absolutely gain some hilarity. She also found a truly gorgeous set of customized input devices - a keyboard and two controllers - painted with a Halo 3 theme. I'd buy those... in a heartbeart. (Louis Wu 16:06:55 UTC)

It's Halo Week at Angry Robot, Apparently
Rock Opera Jr stopped in to let everyone know that Angry Robot has a lot of Halo content this week - they've put up a review of the Legendary Map Pack, a Halo-themed podcast, and a comic that features a pet flood spore. Go check it out! (Louis Wu 14:54:55 UTC)

Free Gamerpics and a Theme from McFarlane
Hawty McBloggy noticed that McFarlane Toys will be providing a cool gamer picture pack, and a dashboard theme, for your LIVE decor - and both are free. Nice-looking stuff! (Louis Wu 20:16:29 UTC)

B.net Blackout
Magni Harvald was the first on our forum to notice that Bungie.net has put up a pretty amazing-looking background in anticipation of the release of the Legendary Map Pack next week. Kevin 'CreditWhore' Paul did his best to not only take credit for the image, but for the idea behind using the image - luckily, good people are on the job, keeping justice afloat. Update: Oops - apologies to KP, who really DID invent the combustion engine, quantum engineering, and time travel. We didn't mean to malign his many accomplishments. Update 2: KP asked for a second clarification - he really only invented time travel to annoy Shishka. And that's the end of that. (Louis Wu 19:15:45 UTC)
