Well, tact and wisdom needs to be applied all the time, so it is rather surprising to see for ourselves that a block in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, has appeared on Google Maps as the “West 8th Street drug section.” Of course, the residents living there are definitely far from amused, of course.

    Were you expecting to see a Michelin Star restaurant? Something like Per Se? Certainly a restaurant where fine dining doesn’t even begin to describe the orgasmic experience, right? Like Alinea? Nope. Those excellent restaurants—and others of their kind—are not the best restaurant in the USA according to Yelp. That honor would go to a small shack in Hawaii called Da Poke Shack.

    ASUS Unveils Android 4.4 KitKat Roadmap

    ASUS Unveils Android 4.4 KitKat RoadmapThey say that knowledge is power, but I would like to think otherwise. Knowledge is potential power if you know how to leverage it, and ASUS intends to “educate” the masses with what they have in store for the future where its Android 4.4 KitKat devices are concerned. In fact, a list of which particular device from ASUS’ stables that will be on the receiving end of this operating system update has been revealed, so for those who happen to own an ASUS PadFone 2, PadFone Infinity (the old and new models), or PadFone A80 have reason to smile. This particular Android 4.4 KitKat update will arrive on the original PadFone Infinity in Asia and Russia, as well as the PadFone A80 in Europe.

    Toro-bots Help Out In Your Garden Reorganization Effort

That could translate to a whole lot of work really, and at times, you might even feel like purchasing a patch of artificial grass instead. Researcher and artist Cassinelli Alvaro decided to work on the Toro-bot instead, where it will arrive in a pair of walking, locationally-aware robots that has Japanese lanterns as heads. This is as weird as it gets, don’t you think so? These tiny garden robots will move around your garden from time to time so that you have a “new” look each time – without having to lift a single finger along the way.
