Your fault for getting me into this… now get me out.

I can’t get past this stage of this particular sudoku, and need your help. It’s from Pappocom’s Sudoku game, ‘hard’ setting. I’ve gotten it down to about 13 minutes for a hard one but this bastard has me stumped — sucking off about 50 minutes of my life so far. Please someone tell me what I am missing…

The little gray numbers in the boxes are the possible values that I’ve added. The blue numbers are what you start with. The big gray numbers are the numbers I’ve added.

Here’s a blank one:

Let your dog carry the load

Poopsadaisy
Here’s a clever new invention that allows you to burden Fido with carrying his own extruded solid waste. I shit you not, it’s called the Poopsadaisy.

I can’t be opening and closing all kinds of doors

Auto door

This door is made out of slats that retract just enough for somoone or something to pass through. Here’s an action vid. The illegible site has images that suggest uses like being a garage door or handicap access, but I’m pretty sure it its first application will be something that rhymes with “lorry toll”.

BTW – I’ve added “Japan” as a posting category. They deserve it.

I call Chechnya. No backsies.

You might have seen The Palms before. They’re three artificial archipelagoes off the coast of Dubai, UAE being created to increase the amount of waterfront property. Here’s one:
Palm Islands

Apparently those weren’t enough, because now they’re building The World (official site):
World Islands
The ultra-rich can now purchase their own mini-nation island. Bush must be drooling at the chance to drop mini-bombs on Syria/Linda Pritzker’s beach house.

Doom movie trailer

In college I never thought this…
Doom

would become a movie. Are there any good movies that began as video games? I heard Resident Evil was OK (and looking at Michele Rodriguez isn’t hard).

The Ode to the Hillbilly.

I don’t know if i find this funnier, or more horrifying, due to the fact that i grew up in the south, and have family from West Virginia. But this is truly great. Try paging back through it for a few random pics, you’ll be amazed (or shocked).

Honestly, Kentucky. WTF?

A radio show was cancelled in Kentucky for saying the word, “breast”. Yes that’s ludicrous, but it gets better. The show that was cancelled was The Writer’s Almanac hosted by Garrison Fucking Keillor!
