According to Alexa (source: a third-party site), The Pirate Bay's domination of the number one spot among torrent sites has ended. A Dutch torrent site, Mininova, takes over TPB's place. Following the conviction of the two founders of TPB, its fate at the hands of Global Gaming Factory X (GGFX) is sealed. GGFX has announced that TPB will decentralize its operations, shut down its trackers and leechers, and become itself a paid service.
If you want to still love TPB even after the big changes in its life, here's the Unikan's Voice Poll for August 2009 (commenting is possible):

[RECOMMENDED] Do you want gmaker.exe to be downloaded quickly?
To answer this question, you will need Download Accelerator Plus 9.x. Make sure that your internet connection is not dial-up and the DAP settings below:
(The "Connection Type/Speed" selection is blackened to conceal the author's connection speed.)
Now, go to http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/Game-Maker-Download-18870.html and right-click on the download location. Now, select "Download with DAP". Mozilla Firefox 3.0.12 or 3.5.1 is recommended. Finally, "Run" or "Save", then your fast Game Maker download should begin.
(Please keep in mind that if you want to download Game Maker from from the YoyoGames mirror, then the download is slow. So recommend my post.)

How to fix the "No installed Python found" bug with Blender 2.49a with Python 2.6.2 Installed
At times, if you want to launch Blender 2.49a, a message may appear on the Blender startup command prompt. This message is:
Compiled with Python version 2.5.
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
Checking for installed Python... No installed Python found.
Only built-in modules are available. Some scripts may not run.
Continuing happily.
If you have two or more Python installations and uninstalled one of them (not Python 2.6.2, as needed by Blender 2.49a to run properly), that message may appear. To fix the problem, reinstall Python 2.6.2 here (depending on your OS): http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.6.2/
Please do not open the installation file (depending on your OS, again) fron the Web, as opening the file may cause problems with the installation progress. There's no need to restart your computer, after you reinstalled Python 2.6.2 successfully, run Blender and the above message is not displayed unless you have installed another Python version.

What MetroGames Apps are Similar
Remember that...
Biotronic is similar to Bejeweled?
Waka-Waka is similar to Pac-Man?
Word Island is similar to Scrabble?
Except...
Pixel Ranger, and Typing Maniac, that are original in form?
That's it. All MetroGames apps are five. And they contain interesting facts.

Common Usage of a Subdomain in an Official Site of an ABS-CBN show: Unikan's Voice Poll for July 2009
Do you see that certain ABS-CBN shows have their respective sites with the subdomain multiply.com? I suggest other subdomains for a new official site of an ABS-CBN show.
Q: Why multiply.com?
A: ABS-CBN creates sites of some of its shows on the Multiply social network in order to make the show produce fans.
Q: Why abs-cbn.com?
A: Because it is suitable to the show ABS-CBN wants to give more information about it.
Q: Why do you want another subdomain?
A: Because I like ABS-CBN to host an official site of one of its shows to a free web hositng service, such as Yola, Weebly, Wetpaint, etc.
Which subdomain do you like to post a new official site of a new ABS-CBN show on? Here's the Unikan's Voice Poll for July 2009:
