What’s Really Inside a Cake?

Just as you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, you shouldn’t judge a cake by its frosting either. For example, take this impressive four-tiered cake by Annabel de Vetten.

The black frosting gives the cake a dark vibe overall, but it doesn’t give any clues on what you’ll find on the other side.

Annabel calls it the “Dissected Cake” for a good reason: the other side shows what’s inside the cake, and it’s not very appetizing. It doesn’t show what you’d find in a typical cake when you slice into it. Instead, the cake’s insides features internal organs and innards of a human being – from brains down to intestines, with a few ribs squeezed in between.

Now that’s one cake I wouldn’t want to have a slice of.

Sony Xperia U gets torn to pieces, FCC destroys something beautiful

There's not much we don't already know about Sony's Xperia U (formerly the Kumquat), the entry-level Gingerbread handset for the company's revamped mobile offerings. Fortunately, those brave boys down in the FCC's underground bunker decided to dissect the handset and delve into its internals, where we can still see some of that Ericsson branding -- presumably it doesn't see any harm in using up some of its old parts if they're hidden from view. Old-timey livery issues aside, the appearance of the handset bodes that all is on schedule for arrival in the second quarter of the year.
