    If you've got a hankering for a bucket of the Colonel's Original Recipe, KFC will now bring the goods to you. The purveyor of fast-food fried chicken is partnering with DoorDash to offer delivery. Once your order is placed via apps on Android, iOS or the web, DoorDash will make sure your $5 Fill Up or $20 Family Fill Up arrives in a timely fashion. Expect to pay a delivery fee between $5 and $7, though, and menu items will cost more than if you visited a physical location. KFC tapping DoorDash for its delivery service isn't too surprising, as the delivery company already handles food drop-offs for Taco Bell which also falls under the YUM! Brands umbrella. KFC delivery is available now in San Francisco, Los Angeles and Orange County with expansion to other markets expected in the coming months. [Image credit: Daniel Acker/Bloomberg via Getty Images]

    We don't know what your daily grind is like, but we're constantly warding off the ever-present threat of industrial espionage. For whatever reason, here's something we've yet to try: the ordinary household biscuit tin. Word has is that the thin, metal baked goods holder is great for keeping the eyes of potential saboteurs away from your secret-storing mobile devices. AFP is reporting that executives at a German chemical company have begun carrying their phones around in the boxes to protect them from the sorts of electromagnetic radiation used to steal valuable information from the handsets. No word on how many of the devices involved are running Gingerbread or similar pastry-based operating systems.
