"Pentagon Plans to Regrow Human Body Parts"

The Pentagon is actually going to find a way to regrow lost limbs and bones using the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or the DARPA for short. Their main goal is to replace a muscle that has been lost. They have already completed Phase 1 of there plan, which was to reprogram human skin cells to act like stem cells. Do you think that the DARPA can really achieve this goal?

New Way to Pop Popcorn

Last weekend my dad show me this awesome way on how you can pop popcorn. First you get a few popcorn kernels from, not a bag of popcorn, but a barrel or bucket. Then, you put some kernels in the middle of three or four cellphones. Have three or four other cellphones to call the phones surrounding the kernels. Make sure that the cellphones are on vibrate or on the loudest volume they can go. Lastly, you call all the phones surrounding the kernels, at the same time, then wait about five seconds. The kernels should pop up into the air, and then you can eat them.

The micro waves from the ringing cellphones makes the kernels pop, kind of like an actual microwave. If anybody who reads this and tries popping popcorn this way, please comment on how it did or didn't work.
