How To: Get Rid of Stink Bugs Without Using Pesticides

Halyomorpha halys, squash bug, shield bug ... What's in a name? A pest is a pest and the brown marmorated stink bug is a pest par excellence.

And let's face it: trading noxious bugs for noxious chemicals isn't much of a victory. Particularly if you're growing food.

News: Mobile Game Developer Fined $50,000 by FTC for Soliciting Emails from Minors

Children under the age of 13 possess insight that can blow the minds of their elders, but not the wherewithal to make important life choices for themselves. This is exactly why there are strict rules against marketing cigarettes to them. In 2000, a law went into effect called the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act that institutes similar consumer protections for our youth's online identities, prohibiting companies from soliciting personal information from children under 13 years of age ...

Bethesda vs. Notch: Does 'Scrolls' Infringe Upon 'The Elder Scrolls'?

Minecraft might still be in development, but that doesn't mean a creative guy like Notch doesn't have time for other projects. A few months ago he and his company Mojang announced their second game, a digital collectible trading card affair called Scrolls. A simple title (perhaps too generic if anything), but it's not the name of an extant game, and it's appropriate given the visual style and card-based gameplay of the game itself.

News: Ball Pythons

News: Supreme Court Deems Violent Video Games Protected Under Freedom of Speech

Video games are the newest major expressive media. As such, their role in society is still being defined continuously. A monumentally important example of this took place yesterday at the US Supreme Court. After a long deliberation, the highest court in the land handed down a decision invalidating a California law banning the sale of violent video games to minors on the grounds that video games are protected speech under the First Amendment, like movies and books.

News: A Quick Homage to Our Benefactor

Without Richard Channing Garfield the world would be a much grayer and less interesting place today, at least for all of us. He created Magic in college, playtested it throughout, accidentally found a publisher for it, and wound up the the most well-known and successful paper game designer in the world (sorry Guygax, make something new why don't ya?). He does not seek the limelight, has not had a snappy biography written about him (or his game, amazingly enough) and I thought we should pay a ...

News: Number One and Number Two Go 3D

Start with a platform (just wide enough for someone to stand on) about ten feet in the air. This is our jousting area.

Not bad enough already, Knoxville and the rest of the crew are standing on ground level with pee filled water guns to add insult to injury. Who wouldn't want to see Steve-O knock Danger Ehren into a pool of poo? Not to mention the great 3D effect you can get with the water guns. A stroke ...

How To: Avoid the biggest manicure mistakes with Dr. Oz

In this video, Dr. Oz teaches us how to avoid the biggest manicure mistakes. You need to make sure your salon sterilizes all of their tools, or bring your own tools. Never cut your own cuticles, this is very bad for you. If you go to get your nails done, make sure the person you are going to is licensed to do this. It will take your fingernails 4-6 months to fully grow out, so don't trim them too short and expect them to grow back quickly. For toes, make sure you wear sandals as much as you c...

News: Terrible Smell

Johnny (as I think he loves making jokes) keeps in a hand one dirty absorbent (I think a girl may be helpfull for this one ;) pretty heavy menstruations are needed ). It doesn't have to be "fresh", it should be a little bit old (probably the smell will get worse with the time)... Johnny, furtively, goes behind somebody (of the crew, obviously) and slaps the absorbent on the guy's face (preferably on the mouth).... The reaction won't be so good, so a cup or something like that wouldn't be a ba...
