In the news:
Einstein's life gets turned into a board game!
When visitors would enter Albert Einstein's house, the physicist would often hand them a small handheld puzzle. He wanted to see how quickly they could solve it. A man of science, he was also interested in playful ways to keep the mind occupied.
It is with that spirit that a small Massachusetts-based company called Artana has created a new board game celebrating the life of the beloved genius. Last week, they launched the game on Kickstarter and the project became fully funded within a matter of hours. Pre-orders are now being accepted for the Einstein game, which will be shipped next summer.



More news:
Why can some people enjoy a cup of coffee just before bed and sleep peacefully, while others lie awake for hours?
A new study suggests genes may hold the answer. After linking variations in genes to patterns of coffee consumption, the study looked for a connections between these gene variations and chemicals that appear in the blood after people consume caffeine. It was found that gene variants linked to lower levels of caffeine chemicals -- which suggest faster caffeine metabolism -- are the same variants previously linked to higher levels of coffee consumption.
