European server maintenance for June 24th
Lesley, our European writer, is out of our virtual office at the moment and isn't available to write up the EU maintenance notice for all of you. So I'm doing it. To try and make the experience authentic, please read this post in a very poor fake English accent. No, wait! A fake German accent. Yeah, that's way more awesome. Do that.Like the (or should I say das) North American realms, European realms will largely consist of rolling restarts with only a few exceptions, which we'll get to in a moment. Rolling restarts will begin at 05:00 CEST and should be finished by 07:00 CEST.However, there is a set of realms that will need an extended maintenance period that will begin at 03:00 CEST and last until 15:00 CEST. The affected realms are: Auchindoun, Ghostlands, Hellfire, Karazhan, Nagrand, shattered Halls, Sporeggar, and The Sha'tar.If you're unsure of what these times are in your time zone, please refer to the World Clock.Should you need entertainment throughout the maintenance period, just take look at Daniel Whitcomb's latest edition of the Tuesday Morning Post, which rounds up our site's best and brightest posts of the week.Au revoir!
German lederhosen get built-in cellphone at CeBIT
With newer clothing trends sporting pockets and even built-in headphones for DAPs like iPods and other goodies, we're finally rockin' that svelte German lederhosen featuring a built-in wireless handset. Those comfy half-pants now feature (finally!) a complete handset hidden away in... well, somewhere. Anyway, Lodenfrey's new lederhosen -- from a company with a century of fine manufacturing background and plenty of expertise in all-weather clothing -- feature a mouthpiece embedded in the suspender straps and a row of unobtrusive olive green buttons down the side of the lederhosen's pant leg. (Insert standard "Is that a Nokia N73 in your lederhosen or are you just happy to see me?" joke here.)[Via textually.org]
