I have gaynkles
My friend Roy took this picture of my feet. He says I have “fairy feet.” He says this is probably why I can’t get no girlfriends.

Atom-grabbing “black hole” created
09 April 2010 by Rachel Courtland
An artificial “black hole” designed to capture wayward atoms has been created. It paves the way for an atom trap that could yield previously unknown states of matter.
A team led by Lene Hau of Harvard University has mimicked the death spiral of matter falling into a cosmic black hole by applying a voltage across a carbon nanotube – a rolled-up sheet of carbon atoms. This created a powerful electric field that tugged at nearby rubidium atoms, which had been chilled to a fraction of a degree above absolute zero: a positive charge on the surface of the nanotubes attracts the rubidium atoms’ electrons, while the positively charged nucleus is repelled.

Using Technology to Start a Successful Business in (Spite of) a Depression
Did you know that some of the most powerful entrepreneurial ideas in the lexicon of human knowledge arose from the ashes of economic catastrophe? It’s true. And the reason is a lot simpler than you think: when times get tough, unemployment increases. So what do people do? They become entrepreneurs.

Nothing had any lasting effect until, at the age of 65, he had his first psychedelic experience. Read More…

Freaky Physics Proves Parallel Universes Exist
By John Brandon (FOXNews.com)
Look past the details of a wonky discovery by a group of California scientists – that a quantum state is now observable with the human eye – and consider its implications: Time travel may be feasible.
Look past the details of a wonky discovery by a group of California scientists – that a quantum state is now observable with the human eye – and consider its implications: Time travel may be feasible. Doc Brown would be proud.
The strange discovery by quantum physicists at the University of California Santa Barbara means that an object you can see in front of you may exist simultaneously in a parallel universe — a multi-state condition that has scientists theorizing that traveling through time may be much more than just the plaything of science fiction writers.

Why I know I’m Doing Good
It’s Tuesday. Today my girlfriend asked, “What is wrong with you?” It was the 25th time she’s asked me this week (week begins on Sunday).
