ASUS to sell pink and gold Zenbooks in the UK, where good taste is alive and well

You know what ASUS' Zenbooks needed, right? Like, even more than a cushier keyboard or Ivy Bridge refresh? The Malibu Beach House treatment, obviously. For those of you in dreary 'ol Blighty waiting for an Ultrabook with tropical coloring (but no sequins), take note: ASUS is going to start selling its candy-colored, oh-so classy Zenbooks in the UK. Specifically, that includes the 13-inch UX31 in hot pink, and the 11.6-inch UX21 in Rose Gold. Both will be available by the end of April, with the UX31 available through PC World and Curry's, and the UX21 through Littlewoods and Argos. Find the PR below, and pay no mind to the lady editor behind the curtain doing a facepalm.

Retired Boeing 737 repurposed as garage-kept flight simulator (video)

A fresh concept it's not, but a fresh look? Yeah, we'll take that. California resident, air traffic controller, pilot and all-around gentleman James Price has converted the actual nose of a 1969 Boeing 737 into his own personal flight simulator. According to the man himself, he "gutted" the bird, installed "all new" parts, slid it into his garage and... well, took a few minutes to show it to the world. While pretty much any flight sim owner would claim that his or hers was "just like the real thing," it's hard to deny that fact with this one. We're told that it took some three years to complete, and the end result leaves no doubt of James' toiling. Head on past the break for the vid.

Dan Henderson beats up Cung Le ? in a movie (VIDEO)

Dan Henderson and Cung Le both have long fight careers, but they've never faced each other. The movie "Dragon Eyes" changed that, as Hendo got his licks in against Le. Skip to the 1:25 mark to miss the dubbed-over dialogue and see Hendo do his thing.

Dragon Eyes also stars Jean Claude Van Damme and Peter Weller. Apparently, Le's character gets to save the world. From IMDB:

In St. Jude, drug dealers and corrupt cops have destroyed an urban neighborhood. But newcomer, Hong, has the fighting skills and moral vision to save this town from itself.

He is the man who will fight for your honor. Wait, that's a different movie. Dragon Eyes comes out May 12.

Thanks, Fightlinker.

Cat Alarm Clock: So Cute, So Annoying

Boo the orange cat has apparently figured out a foolproof way to alleviate boredom and get his human caretakers the heck out of bed in the morning.

Reaching one paw under the bedroom door, he flicks the door stop - which is somehow on the door and not the wall, like every other house in modern civilization, but that's neither here nor there - incessantly to wake everyone up.

Two main takeaways here:

1. Their alarm clock is cuter than yours at least.
2. Cats don't have owners. They have staff.
