Add a little love to your next bento box or afternoon snack with a heart-shaped hardboiled egg. Other than one freshly cooked and peeled hardboiled egg, all you need is one milk carton, one round chopstick and rubber bands. Perfect for brightening up your special someone's day (and much more original than a dozen red roses!).
Jim Lahey's no-knead pizza dough is more time consuming than Jamie Oliver's "cheat's pizza", but it's quicker and simpler than the more traditional dough recipes.

Looks like more in game advertising is coming. This one though, I can't say I don't like it..

By the? underground, for the underground. This was made anonymously for the love of the sport and its ability to touch the whole world, if but for just a moment. Football, soccer, whatever - a rose by any other name would smell as sweet - no organization, no nation, no flag can overshadow its grace. It is all about our love for the Beautiful Game.
This is really more Director Humor, but I thought the shots pulled from Where's Waldo are classic. If you don't know who Werner Herzog is then you should find out...

I just returned from a trip overseas and I came across this great article over at The Chronicles of Harriet about the role of black men in the evolution of Dandyism. Dandyism rose to prominence at the end of the 19th century, so there's a clear connection to Steampunk. I hope that many black men embrace the fashion and find their way into steampunk!
Ok, maybe it's not quite that easy. These Shaolin monks rise at four a.m., practice for six hours, and then study Zen Buddhism for another six. And...supposedly there are only two people in the world who can do this. Please note: breaking of the index fingers is a real risk. Ouch!

Wireless contracts and phone-buying programs continue to become more and more confusing.

Sadly, this isn't one of those April's Fools pranks that are running rampant on the web today. Starting next week, the largest mobile phone provider in the United States wil...
