We wouldn’t know first hand, but we are pretty sure that Muslims around the globe hate taking away from their PSP so they can go pray.

Inside sources are saying that the rumor which started out yesterday as a sort of pipe dream is true. Myspace is said to be purchasing photo-sharing website Photobucket for a cool $250 million.

A small company called SawStop has invented a table saw that only cuts wood, leaving limbs untouched. The table saw works by sensing electrical currents. When the blade touches something that conducts a current, such ...

Meaning literally “hot rice”, Hotto Raisu is a Japanese creation which is rice which can be cooked using cold water. We imagine it works through some kind of chemical reaction.
