nbclocal: News: Laser Cannon Stolen. Bigger News: Laser Cannon EXISTS. A laser cannon was stolen in Denton, Texas last Friday. The cannon was used to help keep railroad lines straight, not for fighting off hordes of bloodthirsty aliens as anyone else would naturally assume.

Taking 5: iTunes Is Still The Killer App
nerdology: Yesterday was the 10 year anniversary of iTunes. 10 years.
