Costumes based on Pixar's Up

Kris Butiong and his girlfriend Thanh Phamdo dressed as Russell and the house from Pixar's Up. It was made from balsa wood, foam core, and foam sheets. 60+ hours were spent on the house. You can see more photos here and here. Thanh also transformed a mere dog into a fearsome tarantula:

Tron Cosplay (and Tron dog)

Wallet by Amanda Visell (link roundup)

Wallet by Amanda Visell and Poketo on sale for $20. The little circle on the right side is a pin that comes with the wallet.

And a few more links:

1. Jack Skellington pumpkin.

2. Dog dressed as Snoopy as the Red Baron.

3. Fanmade downloadable video game based on Luigi's Mansion. Although it was way too short (more like a demo to show off the unusual controller), I really liked Luigi's Mansion. Along with Pikmin and Smash Brothers, really the only memorable games for the Gamecube.

Dogs wearing costumes (link roundup)

Good roundup of photos of dogs wearing costumes.

And a few more links:

1. Sean Salisbury is suing Deadspin for defamation.

2. T-Mobile now has a $79.99 unlimited plan with no annual contract. I can't believe that's considered a good deal. I'm never going to get a smartphone at this rate.

3. Gawker was tricked into running ads that hid malware. The emails sent by the trickster were quite sophisticated. (I believe this happened to the New York Times quite recently as well.)
