Bay Area Based comedy troupe &#8220;Killing My Lobster&#8221; knock it out of the park.  It may be a lot funnier if you have lived in SF within the last few years, but if you know hipsters and their coffee this will be worthy of a laugh or two.

It seems that bacon is being formed and then baked (or fried) into more complex and radical food delivery systems.  The next evolution of bacon science appears to be the Baco.  A bacon based tortilla replacement.  I am both horrified and made hungry by this newest step in evolution in food sciences.

<p>With the growth of control and interactivity available via video games, the world of Machinima is really taking off.  Games like Little Big Planet are designed with user content generation in mind and its amazing to see how it is being adapted and expanded by the user community.</p>
<p>Machinima, as defined via <a title="get your learn on!" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machinima" target="_blank">Wikipedia</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Machinima</strong> (pronounced <span class="IPA" title="Pronunciation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)"><a title="Wikipedia:IPA for English" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:IPA_for_English">/məˈʃiːnɨmə/</a></span> or <span class="IPA" title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)">/məˈʃɪnɨmə/</span>) is the use of real-time <a title="3D computer graphics" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_computer_graphics">three-dimensional</a> (3-D) graphics <a title="Rendering (computer graphics)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendering_%28computer_graphics%29">rendering</a> engines to generate <a title="Computer animation" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_animation">computer animation</a>. The term also refers to works that incorporate this animation technique. Machinima-based artists, sometimes called <strong>machinimists</strong> or <strong>machinimators</strong>, often use graphics engines from <a title="Video game" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game">video games</a>, a practice that arose from the animated software introductions of the 1980s <a title="Demoscene" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demoscene">demoscene</a>, <a title="Disney Interactive Studios" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disney_Interactive_Studios">Disney Interactive Studios</a>&#8216; <a title="1992 in video gaming" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1992_in_video_gaming">1992 computer game</a> <em><a title="Stunt Island" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stunt_Island">Stunt Island</a></em>, and 1990s recordings of gameplay in <a title="First-person shooter" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-person_shooter">first-person shooter</a> (FPS) video games, such as <a title="Id Software" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Id_Software">id Software</a>&#8217;s <em><a title="Doom (video game)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doom_%28video_game%29">Doom</a></em> and <em><a title="Quake" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quake">Quake</a></em>.</p></blockquote>
