Marijuana ice cream has finally hit the shelves

Posted:

Like ice cream? Ever wanted to try ice cream flavors like Banannabis Foster, Straw-Mari Cheesecake and TRIPle Chocolate Brownie? Are you a stoner that always dreamed that one day eating ice cream would get you high? Today is your lucky day Pot ice cream has finally made it to shelves in Santa Cruz, California. Thats right, a marijuana dispensary there has developed half-pints of weed infused ice cream that will get you baked without all the bongs and whistles. Take that Ben and Jerry! The current flavors owner Jonathan Kolodinski offers at Creme De Canna, which opened last week, are Banannabis Foster, Straw-Mari Cheesecake and TRIPle Chocolate Brownie. Kolodinski said more flavors are in the works. OK, those flavors sound pretty good, but honestly, will people really want pot in their ice cream? Everybody whos tried it has said they absolutely love it. A lot of people come back for seconds, thirds and fourths, Kolodinksi said. Thats a dangerous precedent youre setting for people. Its like the best of both worlds for hungry stoners. Theyve been trying hard for years to come up with adequate sustenance that would let them get rid of the munchies while also getting them even more high. Could this be the start of a vicious cycle? Weed smokers that eat ice cream, then when they are hungry they eat ice cream and then they get even higher, meaning that theyll need to eat even more ice cream when those munchies kick in, until well, until they come back for thirds and fourths. Klodinski said there are about two to four doses of cannabis for each half-pint, which means finishing one would be similar to smoking an eighth of high-grade marijuana, the equivalent of eight joints. Yikes. So gaining a few while eating a half a pint now isnt your biggest concern when eating ice cream. Now you have to worry that youll be higher than you ever have been in your life. Things like taking your pants off and going for a walk or watching a marathon of Designing Women at 5am seem like moderately good ideas after downing a pint. At $15 a piece, the half-pints of ice cream are potent. And its actually quite affordable. Well, all I can say is look out Baskin Robbins, if they legalize pot in California in November you may be getting a 32nd flavor. New Dispensary Offers Patients Pot-Laced Ice Cream [NBC 8]

Confirmed: Intel says HDCP 'master key' crack is real

Posted:

It's been just a few days since we broke news of the HDCP master key crack -- a rogue unlocking of the code that keeps HD content under strict control. Now Intel has independently confirmed to both Fox News and CNET that the code is indeed the genuine article. According to company spokesman Tom Waldrop, "It does appear to be a master key," adding that "What we have confirmed through testing is that you can derive keys for devices from this published material that do work with the keys produced by our security technology... this circumvention does appear to work." Coming from the company that developed and propagated the protocol, that's about as clear as you can get. If Intel is worried about the potential damage to copyrighted material and a new flood of super high-quality pirated material, however, the company certainly isn't showing it. "For someone to use this information to unlock anything, they would have to implement it in silicon -- make a computer chip," Waldrop told Fox News, and that chip would have to live on a dedicated piece of hardware -- something Intel doesn't think is likely to happen in any substantial way. Of course, like any major corporation, Intel seems prepared to duke things out in the legal arena should any super-rich hackers decide to do the unthinkable. So, to the Batcave then?Confirmed: Intel says HDCP 'master key' crack is real originally appeared on Engadget on Thu, 16 Sep 2010 22:05:00 EDT.

Is Kadour Ziani the Best Dunker in the World?

Posted:

September 17, 2010 Allen Moll Many American fans tout thelegendary Michael Jordan, Dr J Julius Erving, or even Vince Carter as the best all-time NBA dunk artists. But one international streetball legend named Kadour Ziani has been doing some spectacular dunks for nearly 20 years world-wide, that would make even the legendary MJ or Dominique proud. Hes only 510 but has an incredible 56 inch vertical leap, proven by regularly leaping over automobiles and up to four spectators on 360 dunk attempts. Famous for his Kick the Rim and his double reverse (that right,I said double reverse) windmill dunks, Ziani even now entering his 40s still puts on quite an exhibition in slam dunks. He even once drew world-wide acclaim by taking on and out-dunking the entire And 1 Mixtape crew in a dunk contest back in 2006. Unfortunately fans in the USA havent really been exposed to Ziani, but he undoubtedly is an international superstar in the world of streetball. The Algerian born player, who emigrated to France at age 5, hasnt been touring as much over the past few years but has resurfaced recently by showing out at the Quai 54 Streetball Tournament in Paris, France, where of course, he showed off by doing his patented Kick the Rim stunt (via: Streetballblog.com): A few years ago, he appeared on the Best Damn Sports Show Period and broke the Worlds Record for highest kick, along with finishing off some insane dunks: Check out arguably the best Kadour Ziani mix on youtube: Allen Moll has been a lifelong NBA and NCAA College Basketball fan who watches and studies games religiously, and coaches youth basketball in his native Lehigh Valley region of Pennsylvania. Allen also provides content to Bleacherreport.com, Upperdeckblog.com, in addition to being a tenured NBA and NCAA columnist for TheHoopDoctors.com.
