flash game of the day. The objective of the game — to launch the ‘hog into space — is so beside the point the first time around that you forget all about it until it actually happens. My best time at the moment is standing strong at eight days.

A hand-drawn physics puzzle game that looks simple … but it’s maddeningly hard (and a lot of fun!)

The concept is simple: stack the boxes until they reach the line … how high can you go?
Update: Okay I can’t get past level 10. It’s annoying me now.

A “mind-boggling” crop circle has been spotted in a barley field in Wiltshire, England. The design is a code that represents the first ten digits of pi. The inner circle goes around in segments with each digit represented by tenths of the circle, or 36 degrees, with a radial jump to advance to the next digit. There is even a dot representing the decimal point.

It can also be argued that every circle represents pi.
