I don’t have a shoe porch but dammit I wish I did. I would store shoes there. Removes my shoes there. All shoe related activities could take place there. I would not have a large pile of muddy/snowy wet shoes just inside my kitchen door. It would be great. Check out Project Shoeporch

I have always loved the idea of giant magnetically levitated flywheels in a vacuum storing energy as they spin at incredibly high speeds.

Can Flywheels Help Balance Electricity Supply and Demand?: Scientific American.

Like this only better. In a vacuum, on frictionless magetic bearings, and spinning 100K RPMS.

If you are not a science geek you will probgably find it rather boring however, I find it pretty interesting. During the show several news stories are discussed as are various regular topics.

When I say this I do not mean that the author is not completely serious, I mean that it is not a scientific approach to the issue. Enjoy the crazy,  LHC Will not Destroy the Earch and Here is Why.

If and when the Large Hadron Collider fully powers up and smashes opposing particle streams, the world will not end. However, the end of the age and Christ’s return will happen, and God’s faithful Church will continue to preach the gospel of the Kingdom of God, to warn and witness right up to that time (Matthew 24:14).

Also the “birther” graphic is a blatant give away on, among other things, the scientific seriousness of the article.
