Over this weekend, former Facebook president and Napster co-founder Sean Parker married Alexandra Lenas Parker (a Daenerys Targaryen doppelgänger, anyone?) in a dreamy $10 million dollar woodland wedding. And if you're thinking "that's way too extravagant," get this: According to official documents obtained by The Atlantic, Parker still owes the state of California $2.5 million in penalties for destroying a chunk of a redwood grove for the event without a permit, which unfortunately cannot undo the damage done to the trees and surrounding creek.

Los Angeles Police Department officers found themselves in a rather awkward situation at the Robotoki video game developer studio after an employee accidentally hit their security system's "armed threat" panic button. The office just happened to have a life-sized statue of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 character Simon "Ghost" Riley on display by the entrance, armed with a menacing-looking mock assault rifle.

While tubas seem to be the most popular choice of instrument for this fad, trumpets, cymbals and other musical instruments have entered the fray as well.

Your kids' childhoods will never be the same. At the recent 25th anniversary event for Sony's Computer Science Laboratories in Japan, Sony announced a partnership with Lego and unveiled their first collaborative project titled "Toy Alive." As shown in the video, the Danish toymakers' first remote-controlled platform features several Lego characters that can be controlled with Playstation DualShock controllers, red bricks with built-in LEDs that simulate fire and a webcam that can monitor various objects' movements in its field of view. But the project is still in the prototype phase, so it'll be a few years until you can build the high-tech LEGO castle of your dreams.
