Remember BristleBots, the tiny little ‘robots’ that use little more than a pager motor, a battery and a toothbrush head to create locomotion?
Well apparently, Klutz and Scholastic claim to have thought of the exact same idea with the exact same name at the exact same time as Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories, and are making a book with the bots without giving credit to the original inventors.
It’s still up in the air as to what will happen with this whole situation, and you can follow the updates on the MAKE: Blog, but hopefully this will all get resolved in the right way, and credit will be given where credit is due.
The Testicle Cookbook will have you cooking with balls in no time.
Seriously.
Serbian chef Ljubomir Erovic is releasing the book, which is sure to cause quite a bit of controversy as it shares his favorite testicle treats, such as Testicle Pizza, Testicle Goulash and White Wine Testicles.
According to chef Erovic,
“The tastiest testicles in my opinion probably come from bulls, stallions or ostriches, although other people have their own favourites.”
In addition, testicles are rich in testosterone and are believed to be a powerful aphrodisiac in countries such as Serbia and China.
Again, to quote chef Erovic,
“The best for aphrodisiac properties are sheep and stallion testicles.”
Don’t for a second think that Erovic is a nut off the street though. Since 2004, he as been the organizer behind the World Testicle Cooing Championship, held annually in Serbia, which draws in chefs from Australia, Bosnia-Hercegovina, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Norway and Serbia. During the competition, over one metric tonne of testicles are prepared.
Think you’ve got what it takes to grab the bull by the balls and test out these recipes?
Don’t say I didn’t warn you:

Though it’s easy to dismiss her as a dumb blond that just got lucky, I’ve always felt that Paris Hilton might just have us all fooled. She’s taken a rich father, good looks, and a hard partying lifestyle and managed to turn herself into a brand name, a self-made millionaire, and a media darling by just being Paris. She’s survived a sex tape, a prison stint, more controversy and accusations than a Michael Jackson day care center, and yet still manages to capture headlines at will.
Her latest move into the spotlight involved a brief and unapproved clip in the middle of a John McCain ad.
Not to be outdone, Paris fired back with an ad of her own, announcing her run for presidency, and a surprisingly fluid solution to the gas crisis.
Never one to waste an opportunity, she also managed to squeeze in a full minute of bikini-clad eye candy, and enough “that’s hot” to make a mix tape.
Think she doesn’t know where her money making talents are?
MacHeist is back, and it’s (supposedly) better than ever.
If you enjoyed the Hubert hunting, dollar saving, developer screwing experience of the last MacHeist, then definitely check out this year’s version, as I’m sure it’ll be much of the same.
The source of the controversy following last year’s event was the fact that it raked in over $800,000 for those running the show, but then supposedly gave back developers (many of whom were small time, independent developers) only $5,000 per application.

The Grand Canyon Skywalk is a horseshoe-shaped glass walkway that will jut out 70 feet over the canyon’s edge, giving people a vomit inducing view that has been until now reserved for the birds.
