ok - to the males who like to cook a lot and are hooked on the Food Network - any special "tool" or gadget make your life (in the kitchen) easier?

I like, and use a "mezza luna". It's one of those curved chopping knives with two handles. It makes dicing things super fast and doubles as a pizza slicer. You can find cool, old ones at antique stores for pretty cheap.

Good Luck.

The amazing tendency of Cheerios floating on milk to "magnetize" together is a good model for gravity wells merging as planetesimals congeal to form a planet during the formation of a solar system
It's probably the extra congealed fat they add to make them taste less like tree bark.

Surface tension I think. But the Cheerio on the milk surface is remarkably similar to the Einsteinian distortion of space time seen in a gravity well (the famous rubber sheet model). You could probably make more massive effects by stacking Cheerios, but eventually they would grow too heavy for surface tension to support, creating a black hole and soggy Cheerios too.
