BALTIMORE — Chris Davis hit his major league leading 46th home run, Adam Jones also homered, and the Baltimore Orioles beat the Tampa Bay Rays 4-2 Wednesday night to avoid a three-game sweep.
Davis connected against Jeremy Hellickson (10-7) leading off the fifth inning. The drive landed on Eutaw Street beyond the 25-foot wall in right field and gave the Orioles a 4-2 lead.
NEW YORK — Alex Rodriguez said Wednesday he’s cutting off all non-baseball talk after a wild weekend of accusations and retaliations on and off the field.
Playing while he appeals a 211-game suspension for violating baseball’s drug agreement and labor contract, the New York Yankees star and his fleet of lawyers and representatives sparred with the Yankees and Major League Baseball over his medical care and evidence in the doping case that stems from MLB’s investigation into Biogenesis, the now-closed Florida anti-aging clinic accused of distributing performance-enhancing drugs.

Even though the team started with a $20,000 funding goal, it turns out that a good, innovative and well designed bicycle bell is worth far more than most would have expected.

Coming August 26th, T-Mobile will make its Simple Choice plans available to business customers, effectively severing the tie between the cost of devices and mobile service. The pricing structure is geared to customers with six lines or more, with rates that start at $20 per line for unlimited talk, text and 500MB of overage-free / throttled data. Keeping in line with its approach on the consumer end, business users can then pay for additional data, starting at $30 for an extra 2GB and going up to $50 for unlimited 4G data (and 2.5GB of limited hotspot use). T-Mobile is hoping its new approach will be popular with the BYOD crowd, but it’s also performing a balancing act with a subsidized Simple Choice Classic plan that runs an additional $20 per month. Meanwhile, companies with less than six lines can tap into T-Mobile’s small business plans, which parallels the pricing that individuals pay.

Hamsters seem to just love shoving impossibly large objects in theirs mouths.
According to PawNation, a hamster’s cheek pouches are used to both store food and carry babies, and can hold up to half their body weight. The pouches are sensitive though, so if you own a hamster, be careful what food you provide to protect your pet from puncturing its skin.
Check out the photos below of some of the oversized objects hamsters have tried to cram down their mouths!

Does tapping a keg that comes in the form of a workable vintage in-home arcade sound too good to be true? Well, it isn’t.
Catering directly to 30- and 40-somethings, Dream Arcades has invented what it calls the “ultimate party machine.” The “Kegerator Pro 60” comes with a built-in fridge, a keg with three taps, and more than 140 of the most popular classic video games. The arcade also has a massive 60-inch HDTV screen.
The company boasted in a statement e-mailed to CNET that the “players never have to stop the action to refill their drink” and the arcade also has two built-in cup holders “so players can keep their drinks topped off while keeping one hand on the joystick.”

When’s the last time you put all your eggs in one basket? Probably never. But! When’s the last time you put all your data in one hard drive? Probably right now (you gotta learn better backup habits). And though we know that practice makes perfect and that patience is a virtue, what actually applies to real life is that Photoshop makes perfect and waiting for a page to load is a virtue.
