    Supercomputers Corroborate Einstein's e=mc2 After 103 Years

    Believe it or not, but it has taken 103 years and the combined power of various of the world's top supercomputers to prove Eintein's biggest equation right, resolving e=mc2 at the scale of sub-atomic particles. The feat has been achieved by a team of French, German, and Hungarian physicists led by Laurent Lellouch at the Center for Theoretical Physics in France, and has finally answered a question that has puzzled scientists for decades: The Mysterious Case of the Disappearing Atom Mass!

    Albert Einstein Wristwatch for Sale, Measures Time Relatively Well

    Albert Einstein's watch is for sale. It will be auctioned on October 16, just in time for you to count the remaining hours before they find God's Particle or destroy the Galaxy at CERN. How do you know this 1930s Longines is actually Mr. Einstein's watch? By looking at its back. More »

    Einstein Wrong, Form a Queue for Time Travel

    So, it turns out that maybe Einstein was wrong about that whole relativity thing. A couple of German physicists claim that they've broken the speed of light (with a photon, not a rocket, disappointingly). What this means is that time travel, instantaneous traveling between distant locations and really fast download speeds could all be possible. More »

    Smart Power Strip Auto Shuts Down Peripherals

    This power strip has surge protection, noise filtering and a microprocessor capable of turning off all the peripheral devices when the main device is turned off. So, when you turn off your PC, it can shut down your speakers, printer and other extras, too. It is available for $35, which isn't too bad for a quality surge protector that's smarter than average. –Travis Hudson More »

    Relativity Watch Confuses Everybody

    "Modeled" on Einstein's theory of relativity, this Relativity Watch actually makes the numbers move instead of the hands. This, of course, makes you dizzy if you continuously stare at it for more than 12 hours. More »

    CEDIA 2006: First Look at Monster's Einstein Intelligent Home Control System

    I got a chance to sneak into a custom installer-only demo that was showing off Monster's very hush-hush Einstein home control system. This system supposedly makes up the "home of the future." It's pretty fancy, but we'll have to wait and see how futuristic it really is. The system is made up of six creatively named components. Jump to see the low-down. More »

    Will Return...Never

    At first glance this looks like the ubiquitous "will return" sign, but then you realize the secondhand is moving. Hey, wait a minute. This is a clock that runs on two AA batteries. Set it ahead 15 minutes and leave it on your door, and then if seeing is believing, you will always be back 15 minutes from now. More »
