Losing Billions of Dollars Pennies at a Time...

Interesting article on how someone found they were getting over paid, reported it, and repeatedly got ignored for being responsible in the defence industry. Check it out here on MSNBC.

The real kicker? He first reported it back in 1969 and the problem has never been fixed even to this day!

Mercury

Wired is running an article on Mercury. Apparently it's more interesting to visit then Mars since it has a ton of active vulcanism and also magnetic tornadoes that link Mercury to the Sun.

Plunging in to a black hole.

CNN has a video that simulates falling in to a black hole. Check it out here.

Take it with you.

Ever wonder if you could take your character with you? Oddly enough Blizzards forum ads showed me a way to. I found this site when I was looking through the WoW forums and their ad came up on Blizzards banner ads.

If you ever want to get an actual figurine of someone and have $130 laying around. That's how you do it. Also they don't have to be your characters, you can order a figure of anyone in the armory.

Tauren invades grocery store!

Ok so there was no china shop near by, but being a resourceful bull this Tauren decided to grab a few things for the fridge at the grocery store. Thankfully it appears nobody got hurt, including the bull. (Video had no sound for me.)
