Sam Cooke sings "A Change Is Gonna Come." I thought this was triply appropriate. It's simultaneously from Rolling Stone's Top 5 Greatest Singers (see below), a former "Daily Song" here at AKA William, and the song itself is telling us that a change is gonna come. 1, 2, 3. Triple.

Rolling Stone announces The 100 Greatest Singers of All Time. The top 5?

1) Aretha Franklin
2) Ray Charles
3) Elvis Presley
4) Sam Cooke
5) John Lennon

Stan Lee to create gay superhero for Showtime. And since it's Showtime, you know we're gonna be seeing some nekkid superhero (like Vampire Bill!). He's going to have the power to heal people. Wait, is Stan Lee gay?

Patrick, one of three members of the self-titled "Team Rainbow" on the new season of Top Chef, packs his knives. Knives, I said.

Enter Gizmodo's Mars Photoshop contest: "Use Photoshop to show us what the Mars Phoenix really discovered that the government doesn't want us to know about."

My girlfriend, Rachel Maddow, is not entirely a saint. Not yet, anyway. Last night she had to make some correction to some misinformation she presented earlier in the week in her "Ms. Information" segment.

I included a mention of this in the Bar Snacks section, but, after thinking about it, I've decided to gather together an entire post.

Arts Technica has an exhaustive review of the phone.

Engadget has a review with pictures.

And then Gizmodo has an exhaustive review and really great pictures: "There is a lot riding on the shoulders of T-Mobile's G1 Android phone. In some ways, it carries the collective hopes of Linux, open source and Google fans everywhere. It's open, collaborative and community-based, in other words, everything the iPhone and Windows Mobile aren't."

This is the Shower Power! Between this and the Dyna-Douche, your shower caddy should be completely set. It even comes with cartoon demonstrations of possible uses. After the jump. Slightly NSFW.
