…2009 is a good year for calendars?

The start of a new year is always the perfect time for planning and preparation, and if you’re the type that likes to map out your life inside of the structure that a calendar provides, then DYH is here to help you pick out a good one:

Nerdcore Calendar

First, there’s the 2009 Nerdcore Calendar, a return of the geek culture pin-up collection (2009 is their third annual calendar), and this year, they’re highlighting science fiction themes and motifs, from epic space operas to more intimate retro-chic, ala your favorite sexy super spies from the 60s.

Inside you’ll find portraits of a fiery redhead being carried off by giant robots (starring geek goddess Justine Joli), a purple-haired vixen presiding over a futuristic metropolis (European sensation Jana Cova), and a topless cyborg adorned in western gear, revolvers and all (starlet Bobbi Starr).

Plus, the Nerdcore calendar is designed to help you remember all those regular and nerdy holidays, such as major movie releases; conventions like San Diego Comic-Con, Alternative Press Expo, etc.; anniversaries for major franchises and cult classics; birthdays for of genre favorite creators, actors, writers, and directors; and key fictional happenings, from obscure to awesome.

Pirelli Calendar

Second, Pirelli’s famous/infamous calendar is back, and this year they’re taking the girls on a safari (and ditching any reference to automotive culture in the process).

Though the calendar is sent out by Pirelli to only the best of the best in the auto industry, I wouldn’t be surprised to see a few of these end up on the eBay auction block, and even if you can’t get your hands on an actually copy, Pirelli has been kind enough to put most of the images (as well as a few outtakes) online for your NSFW browsing pleasure.

Hot Blogger Calendar

Lastly, if you spend all day staring at blogs anyways, then why not buy a calendar that helps to support some of the hottest bloggers around?

The 2009 Hot Bloggers Calendar can be ordered as either a collection of Male or a collection of Female bloggers, and each features some of the hottest hands to ever grace a keyboard. It’s as social as social media is ever going to get, and part of each sale goes directly to the bloggers themselves, so buying one helps them to keep doing what they’re doing for another year or more.

So there you have it, there calendars for three very different audiences, but all with the same goal: Give you a little bit of eye candy to look at while you’re planning out what to do with your days.

…Nerdcore knows what day it is?

Nerdcore CalendarNerdcore’s 2007 calendar featured the PowerGlove, but that silly attachment pales in comparison to the powers of this year’s calendar.

In this calendar, called “Heroes/Villains”, heroines and their evil counterparts square off in quite revealing ways.

It’s not exactly the type of thing you can display on your desk at work, but if you’ve got a special room in your house (or your parents’ house) that’s just for playing dungeons and dragons in, then your walls NEED this calendar.

Flame on!

…The Human Calendar is clever?

The Human CalendarThe Human Calendar is a rather unique idea.

To show the days and dates, people hold placards with the correct information. To show what day it actually is, everyone looks in one direction: the current date.

…The iPhone has a few secrets?

Jobs might want to keep a few of the iPhone features under wraps until the full release, but Actioncorp TV has picked through his MacWorld Keynote with a fine toothed comb and has come up with a few details that didn’t make it into the presentation, such as “what the calendar application looks like, how you’ll view traffic in Google Maps, another way to scroll through long lists and how ringtones may ultimately work”.
