That’s right, from now until the end of February all profits from Bungie’s online store will be donated to the Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund. It’s Bungie’s way of saying, “We care”. And also, “Thanks for making us a gazillion dollars playing Halo “. But seriously folks: for those of you who have been hesitant to donate, here’s an opportunity to help make a change AND get something for your money . Because heaven forbid you do something out of the kindness of your heart. And, for those of you that don’t want a shirt, text HAITI to 90999 to donate $10 to the Red Cross (added to your cellphone bill). Say — mind if I use your phone for a sec? Bungie’s Online Store and The Red Cross Thanks to Katt, who knows that caring means sharing.

Heroes actor Jimmy Jean-Louis, known as "The Haitian" on the show, told CNN yesterday he has finally spoken with his mother in Haiti. " got a phone call from my sister who said she was able to reach home," the…

As many of you Geekologie Loyalists may know, I don’t really go to the movies . Thing is, I hate large groups of people (but love large people — weird, I know). However, I may have to get over it if only to sneak my own bag of Bacon Bourbon Caramel Corn in and moan in ecstasy throughout the entire film (cross your fingers you get to sit next to me — I might share!). Take your snacking to the next level with Bacon Bourbon Caramel Corn ($35/2 lbs.). This sweet/savory snack mix incorporates the smokey goodness of bacon and bit of bourbon with the sweetness of caramel and the crunch of popcorn, resulting in an addictive snack that’s a great way to kick up your next gathering. Now I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that this recipe was probably created by God himself. Bacon? Bourbon? Caramel? Popcorn? You can’t argue a mere mortal could come up with a flavor combo like that. Am I right, God? Oh, and while I’ve got your attention — that earthquake in Haiti — not cool, Big Guy, not cool. Geekologie’s thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Haiti during this time of particularly devastating hardship. Bacon Bourbon Caramel Corn [uncrate] Thanks to Chuey The Rock n Roll Midget, who plans to play a benefit concert for the island nation. Good lookin’, Chuey.

Drawing inspiration from those pop-ups ads promising a wondrous 3D tornado that will save your screen (and apparently a trip he took to the Ozarks), Bill Paxton has decided he’d like to make another Twister film–this one using 3D gimmicks to make the cows caught in the tornadoes fly right out of the screen! The actor explained to Premium Hollywood (via Empire ): “I’ve had a meeting at the studio with Kathleen Kennedy about it,” Paxton said, whose inspiration for a sequel came as a result of a trip that he took to the Ozark Mountains last spring. “That would need Steven Spielberg’s blessing, ultimately, and they probably won’t take it to him ‘til there’s real studio interest, but I think the 3D applications of that could obviously be pretty amazing. “I always thought the first ‘Twister’ was an exciting ride, but I thought a sequel could explore it in a more enthralling way, getting into more of the history and the lore, more of a darker version of the first one.” A darker Twister , huh? I don’t think anyone actually wants that, but OK, Bill. Go for it. But first things first: we’re going to need a more somber Goo Goo Dolls song .

Ouch! Just when you thought Lindsay Lohan wasn't getting enough bad press for her fashion adviser role with the Emanuel Ungaro label… Emanuel Ungaro himself now tells reporters at a Lisbon film festival that LiLo's show was "a disaster"…

What happens when you cut out all the effects shots from a five-minute clip of Roland Emmerich’s newest disaster film, 2012 ? You get a sad, shouty minute-and-a-half acting reel composed of John Cusack doing a Conan-driving-his-desk Late Night sketch:

This is a picture of Philippine residents using power lines as a bridge in wake of the recent Typhoon Ketsana (whore!). I assume there the power is out so it’s relatively safe, or maybe they’re just playing Filipino roulette . Whatever the case, it reminds me of that scene in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom where they’re trying to cross the bridge and Indy cuts the ropes. The main evil dude falls right into a crocodile’s mouth! Talk about bad luck. I woulda ripped its teeth out and made a phat necklace! Using Power Lines as a Bridge Seems Incredibly Dangerous [gizmodo]

Wow, just typing snicker makes me want a Snickers bar. Does it do that to you too? Please circle yes or no and pass this note back to me in between classes . So anyway, a seemingly ordinary bikini that dissolves when it gets wet. That’s something . Sellers in Germany bill the dissolving Get Naked costume as a chance for men to get their own back after a break-up. But women’s rights campaigner Rosmarie Zapfl stormed: “It is an absolute insult to women that this has been invented.” It really is though. Which is exactly why I just bought every last one of them so no woman will have to experience that humiliation. Also, ladies — pool party at my house! No need to bring anything, I’ve got a ton of suits *snicker*. Damnit I did it again. Dissolving Bikini is the Ultimate Revenge Gift [spike] and Teeny weeny dissolvable bikini [thesun] Thanks to Steven, william and slammer, who only wear thong-backed bathing suits because they’re cheeky.

Finally, a movie involving a global catastrophe of some nature! I was getting worried I’d have to go back to the first half of the decade, or to NBC’s recent television event Meteor , starring Christopher Lloyd and Seinfeld ’s Jason Alexander , to see fictional disasters happening. But no, there’s also this. ‘2012′ Poster [Yahoo]
