Ones and Zeros: Geeky Binary Goods
If you really want to show off your geek pride, nothing screams geek louder than a binary code tee. Except for maybe a few of these other binary goods that will leave few questions on whether or not you're a fan of the code. Check out a few of my faves, including one that's not really binary, but I couldn't help but throw it in anyway.

Spooks: Code 9 Starts Tonight
Whether or not you've watched Spooks, you might be interested to hear that a spin-off of the show (no knowledge of the original series required) is beginning tonight on BBC3 at 9pm, featuring a young fresh set of cast members. Spooks: Code 9 is set in 2013, one year after a nuclear bomb blast in London that kills thousands and thousands of people. Here's how it's all set up:
In the wake of the attack, MI5 must completely restructure and establish field offices across the UK, working to gather intelligence from the very heart of local communities.
Food Review: Code Blue Recovery Drink
I must admit I'm not big on special fitness drinks, especially recovery drinks. They're often full of extra calories, and I usually opt for water since most exercise physiologists believe you don't need to worry about replacing electrolytes, carbs, and protein unless you have been working out and sweating for more than an hour. I often think a lot of these drinks have added coloring and chemicals, so when I saw Code Blue marketed as an all natural post-workout drink I was curious to try it.
Jake Gyllenhaal May Be Thrilling Audiences With Source Code
It seems so long since we've seen Jake Gyllenhaal on screen (2007 in Rendition, to be exact), so I'm glad that we're about to get a lot more of him. Next month we'll catch him in Brothers, then in the Spring all buffed up in Prince of Persia — and he won't be slowing down. Gyllenhaal is in talks to star in the sci-fi thriller Source Code.
Website of the Day: Grechen's Codes
Good economy or bad economy, everyone loves getting a discount, and I can safely say that every purchase I have made in the last few months online has not been without a coupon code.
I usually use Retail Me Not, but I discovered a new coupon site that focuses on women's clothing and accessories, and I'm a little unhealthily obsessed with it: Grechen's Codes.
Who's Grechen?
Sequel News: The Fast Enchanted Code
One good flick deserves another, right? Franchise-happy Hollywood has a block of sequels in the works, and today's three include one that makes me groan, one that's actually fun, and one that we all saw coming.
- Fifth time's a charm: The Fast and the Furious's next installment has been confirmed, with Paul Walker and Vin Diesel attached yet again.
Pop Watch – Spooks: Code 9, Episode 1
Wow, Spooks: Code 9 began with some thrills and spills, as well as a rather bleak view of the future of the UK. Code 9 is a nuclear attack in London that happens in 2012, and one year later a crew of six good-looking young people are put together as a new MI5 team to fight the terrorist threat. If you want to find out more about the premise, then check out my introduction to the series, but here's my thoughts on yesterday's opening episode (my thoughts on the second episode will follow this afternoon)!
Code Pink Socks It To Bush With Shoe Protest
It was only a matter of time before Bush's opponents at home took advantage of last weekend's shoe attack to highlight their frustration with the President. Code Pink, the infamous group of women for peace, gathered outside the White House and in Berkeley, CA yesterday to hold a "Farewell Kiss Shoe-In" for President Bush.
Just like the Iraqis, who gathered in the streets carrying shoes to show their solidarity with the jailed journalists, the women of Code Pink picked up, or untied, the latest symbol of dissent.
