I'm still trying to figure out the perfect amount of-milk-to-Kraft Dinner ratio...
Could Einstein's Theory of Relativity be a few mathematical equations away from being disproved? Jacob Barnett of Hamilton County, Ind., who is just weeks shy of his 13th birthday, thinks so. And, he's got the solutions to prove it.
Barnett, who has an IQ of 170, explained his expanded theory of relativity — in a YouTube video. His mother Kristine Barnett, who admittedly flunked math, did what every other mother would do if her genius son started talking mathematical gibberish. She told him to explain the whole thing slowly while she taped her son explaining his take on the theory.

It takes balls to play this instrument...
This is almost unbelievable. See how all of the balls wind up in
the catcher cones.
This incredible machine was built as a collaborative effort between
the Robert M. Trammell Music Conservatory and the Sharon Wick
School of Engineering at the University of Iowa.
Amazingly, 97% of the machines components came from John Deere
Industries and Irrigation Equipment of Bancroft, Iowa...
Yes, farm equipment!
It took the team a combined 13,029 hours of set-up, alignment,
calibration, and tuning before filming this video, but as you can
see it was well worth the effort.
It is now on display in the Matthew Gerhard Alumni Hall at the
University and is already slated to be donated to the Smithsonian....
...or it's CGI and you can find it at animusic.com. :)

Furry Friday!!!
Meet Helena! Helena is looking for a home. Find out how you can make Helena a member of your family by visiting www.kingscountyspca.com
We also talked about Angelina this morning on the Early Show. Angelina has been at the shelter since November 5th, 2010, with what can be described as a "catitude". She has a persnickity personality, but loaded with charm. Recently it was discovered that she had suffered a previous injury, which tends to cause her pain at times, but surely doesn't slow her down.
Angelina needs to find her forever home and one which can provide special loving care, one best with older children and no other cats or dogs.
Her adoption fee has been lowered to $50. Please call the shelter for further info 538-9075.

See what you started Rebecca Black?
Before Rebecca Black became a viral sensation for her song "Friday," the trend of teen and pre-teen girls recording awful, Auto-tuned pop songs had already begun. Jenna Rose, a 12-year-old from Long Island, may be the latest budding pop star on YouTube for her song "My Jeans." Her video, which was posted before Rebecca Black's, is just now getting a ton of hits...which as my wife has stated, proves the point that we should really monitor who gets an internet connection...

"Pray for Japan"
As I talked about this morning on The Early Show, Lady Gaga rallied her Little Monster minions around a Gaga-designed five-dollar red-and-white prayer bracelet with "Pray for Japan" printed in both English and Japanese.
In the space of 48 hours, she raised a quarter of a million dollars with all proceeds going to tsunami relief.
Get one, by following the link, or directly from my facebook page.

One and a Half Men
So Charlie Sheen is officially out, fired from "Two and A Half Men". So who to replace him? Do you replace him? Do you end the show. The answer to that seem to be mixed, with a few good suggestions.
It has been rumoured that John Stamos has been contacted to see if he has any interest in playing the "Charlie" role...and the latest rumour today has Rob Lowe being thrown in the mix.
Lea on my Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=785685124), suggested Robert Downey Jr. today. I love this suggestion...he'd be perfect, but would he take the pay-cut to move to the small screen. I mean could he 'survive' on 2-mil an episode?! I doubt it...but it would make for a great show. It sure would be better than not replacing Sheen, and leaving Jon Cryer with the kid...One and A Half Men just doesn't have the same ring to it.
