Dumbass Parent Has Kid Rid on Roof of Minivan
This 37-year-old woman is facing child endangerment charges for allegedly having her 13-year-old daughter ride in a cardboard box on top of her minivan as it traveled along an interstate highway in Alabama. The woman, Jackie Knott, a Tyson Foods poultry processing facility worker, was pulled over by cops. She told the officers that the cardboard box was too big to fit in her minivan and therefore she had her daughter serve as a human paperweight to prevent the box from flying away. As as precaution, she had tied the box down with wire hangers. The cops weren't convinced by the woman's effort and therefore arrested her. Why she didn't just flatten the box to get it to fit in her car? That remains to be known, but I'm guessing it's because this woman is a stupid hick. [TheSmokingGun]

PhotoSketch Compiles Images to Make Photos
PhotoSketch: Internet Image Montage from tao chen on Vimeo.
PhotoSketch is a web-based program was allows the user to draw out an image they desire. The program then searches for images on the internet that will help compile parts of a picture to make the picture you want. As seen in the above video, the program will crop out backgrounds and objects to find the items that match best. It will then compile them into a single image. It's not perfect, but it works well enough.
Verizon Quick to Point Out AT&T's Flawed Service
Mocking the AT&T networks and the Apple iPhone, Verizon came out with a "there's a map for that" ad by Verizon that shows off Verizon's 3G network vs. the AT&T network that sucks. Too bad Verizon doesn't have a iPhone for me. Good thing they are getting Android phones in a couple of weeks, because the rest of their phones can shove that map up their sd card slots.
POTD: Left 4 Dead Box Covers
