Exploding Kittens closed down their crowdfunding site on Kickstarter Thursday.

The old-school card game began their month long crowdfunding drive with a goal of $10,000 to produce 500 card decks.

However, the premise of Exploding Kittens was so incredibly popular that they reached their $10,000 goal in the very first hour.

When Exploding Kittens closed down their site on Thursday, they were officially the highest funded game on Kickstarter in history.

The game also ended as the third highest funded project ever behind Coolest Cooler and Pebble Watch.

Exploding Kittens ended with $8.7 million from 219,832 backers.

Exploding Kittens is a complete anomaly in the games section of Kickstarter.

Luke Crane, community manager for games at Kickstarter, said, Until Exploding Kittens came along, we hadnt seen the Internet at large descend on a project and embrace it at this crazy scale.

On Kickstarter, donors receive awards for donating to the projects. In the case of Exploding Kittens, that award was a deck of the cards for a $20 donation.

If it was more than $20, donors were awarded with upgraded decks or x-rated decks.

New Delhi, Feb 21, 2015, (PTI):

Decks have been cleared for a PDP-BJP government in Jammu and Kashmir possibly within a week with both sides agreeing on a Common Minimum Programme (CMP) which is understood to have addressed controversial issues like Article 370 and AFSPA. Sources privy to the development said PDP patron Mufti Mohammed Sayeed, who is likely to be the Chief Minister for the entire six year term, will meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi early next week when the announcement on government formation is expected to be made. Ahead of the Mufti-Modi meeting, PDP president Mehbooba Mufti will fly in here tomorrow and meet senior BJP leaders, the sources said.

The leaders of the PDP, which has 28 MLAs and BJP with 25 MLAs in the 87-member Assembly, chose to keep under wraps details of the CMP as also how the two sides thrashed out contentious issues including Article 370, the controversial Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA) and rehabilitation of nearly 25,000 West Pakistan Refugees over which they were sharply divided.

The CMP needs to be read in totality and not in bits and pieces, leaders from both the political parties, who preferred anonimity, stressed.

Both the parties have agreed to put the CMP in public domain ahead of the swearing-in of the new government, which will see BJP MLAs sitting on the ruling benches for the first time in the state Assembly.

The sources said the state could see a new government "within a week". PDP and BJP have been in talks ever since the election results on December 23 last gave a fractured verdict. The state is under Governor's Rule for over a month.

The two sides are understood to have agreed on formation of a Committee which will go into the AFSPA issue and suggest areas from where it could be revoked.

On Article 370, while BJP has given no written assurance as demanded by the PDP, the CMP is expected to say that both parties will respect the aspirations of the people of the state within the Constitution, the sources indicated.

The proposed CMP may also touch upon the issue of more than 25,000 families of West Pakistan refugees by terming it as a humanitarian issue.

Don't get on stage with Afroman. He doesn't want you there.

A video shows the rapper and guitarist playing his guitar Tuesday at a concert in Biloxi, Mississippi, when he whirls around and apparently slugs a woman who was dancing on stage behind him. After she goes down, he continues to play.

"On 17 February 15, the Biloxi Police Department responded to a reported assault at the Kress Live Entertainment Venue involving Mr. Joseph Edgar Foreman who performs under the stage name Afroman," the Biloxi Police Department arrest report read. "Mr. Foreman was arrested for Assault as a result of a Citizen's Affidavit, booked in, and released after paying a 330 Dollar Bond."

"My understanding is (the woman) got up on stage, and he hit her," Police Chief John Miller told the Biloxi Sun Herald.

On the video, the woman gets up and looks back at Afroman in surprise. An audience member climbs on stage and leads her away.

Wednesday afternoon, Afroman apologized for the incident, telling "TMZ Live" that he's going to be "enrolling in an anxiety foundation right now."

"I'm here to apologize," he said. "I need some help."

He said that he had been heckled by a man off-stage and was irritated by the women who got on stage, and he added that security should have taken action.

Nevertheless, he shouldn't have lashed out, he said.

"It was wrong," he said. "What happened shouldn't have happened."
