At sunset tonight (September 18, 2009), the Jewish holiday of Rosh Hashanah begins, indicating the Jewish New Year. It is the first of the Jewish high holidays and ends at sunset on September 20, 2009. The rest of the Ten Days of Repentance continue until Yom Kippur, its last day.
This may affect some of our Jewish brethren who otherwise enjoy engaging in a series of zombie killings, a la Call of Duty: World at War zombie maps (either solo or multi-player), and I certainly do not advocate distracting them from their religious duties.
