Other than for a prank to pull on your friends, I can think of no real usefulness for a cell phone controlled roach, can you? That’s right, I said roach, as in the six-legged, nuclear war surviving, germ spreading, night scattering, little menaces. Well guess what? There is an app for that. At the Technology, [...]

Keith James — Mon, 17 Jun 2013 09:41:54 +0000

Kim Kardashian has finally given birth to little 'Kimye' (or is it 'North-West'? I guess that's the best compass point to pick if you have to pick a SECOND one) but that doesn't mean she will go away now like most of us would like, now comes the diaper endorsement deals and the Jenny Craig post-baby weight loss story.

Make Your Own Cronuts!

Emerald Catron — Mon, 10 Jun 2013 15:43:44 +0000

Cronuts have taken over New York City (and the internet) in a big way. The hybrid croissant-doughnuts are only available at one bakery, and when they're gone madness ensues. People are scalping pastries, folks. There's a cronut black market on Craigslist, where you can have one delivered to you for $40. There are bootleg "doissants." It's insanity.
