Al Qaeda Also Fed Up With Ground Zero Construction Delays

Innovation

Everyone has experienced some new feature from Google's seemingly endless ideas, but they seem to be losing focus of the marketability of various ideas. That's not necessarily bad for us, the consumer, but it does mean that the Good Giant is pumping lots of money into endeavours that I can't see them making their money back on. Sure, with enough time, any investment, funded by ads will pay for itself but I'm too ineloquent this morning to continue the diatribe. I'm sure you get the point: basically, what's the point of Google Maps Street View?As reported by Penny Arcade.

A few more links

I believe in Harvey Dent campaign webpage which recently linked to this image of Heath Ledger as the Joker in The Dark Knight.

Al Gore's crazy multi-monitor office space here.

A trailer for a new film, another trading on Marky Mark's awesome cop-acting called We Own the Night.

And, a 3D fabrication machine that makes objects out of pure sugar here.

Which Chess piece are you?


Your Score: A Black Rook


You scored 3 Power-Finesse, 1 Leader-Follower, 2 Unique-Ordinary, and 2 Offense-Defense!




You don't have to worry about fancy plans, or sophisticated schemes. You are just on the board to kick some ass and smash some white pieces. You stand by your leaders, and they get worried when you are removed from play. You work best with your buddy, the other black rook, and when you don't have him watching your six, you tend to be somewhat innefective.

It's movies season again

As I'm sure most of you are aware, there's a whole bunch of cool films coming out this 'Summer'. With the rounding out of 8 trilogies (with Spiderman 3 already out, Pirates: At World's End out on Thursday, Shrek the Third, Ocean's Thirteen, Rush Hour 3 and Bourne Ultimatum) combined with the first film entry of The Simpsons, the most expensive comedy ever in Evan Almighty and every 80s boy's wet dream in Michael Bay directing Transformers, there should be plenty of fun to go around...and plenty of return on the studios investments in crappier films.

The reason I'm making this post however (as well as a reference point for myself) is as an excuse to show you Yahoo! Movies' primary reason you should see the film Bruce Willis called his most fun job in a while: Live Free or Die Hard
"Pick any two methods of transportation. Chances are you'll get to see them crash and/or explode into each other in this movie"

It seems like Len Wiseman has taken a page out of Bay's book. Anywho, check out the Yahoo! page, it's a fun way to spend 15 minutes.

Mildly amusing


If a door is closed, karate chop it open.




It's been done before, but I actually chuckled aloud at a couple of these.

Terrorist Quiz

Ever wondered if you're a terrorist? Well here's your chance to find out. A bit old-hat, but still disturbing seeing as the flag that they mention is now flown on most U.S. Navy ships (and I don't think they've got the prison-space to hold half their military)
