Weighing 6-pounds and standing just 14-inches tall, Einstein is touted as the world's smallest horse, who was born April 22, 2010 in Barnstead, New Hampshire.

Einstein's physical proportions are similar to those of a normal-sized foal, and as Rachel Wagner, one of Einstein's co-owners, who features in the YouTube video at the end of the page, remarks: "He is very perfect looking little boy and not dwarfy looking at all."

Geeky Easter Eggs

Posted: 25 Apr 2011 09:43 PM PDT

The best part of Easter, apart from all the chocolate, is decorating the eggs. Easter eggs or spring eggs are special eggs given to celebrate the Easter holiday or springtime. The egg was a symbol of the rebirth of the earth in celebrations of spring and was adopted by early Christians as a symbol of the resurrection of Jesus. The oldest tradition is to use dyed or painted chicken eggs, but a modern custom is to substitute chocolate eggs, or plastic eggs filled with confectionery such as jelly beans. These eggs are often hidden, allegedly by the Easter Bunny, for children to find on Easter morning. Otherwise, they are generally put in a basket filled with real or artificial straw to resemble a bird's nest.

Here's a collection of shots of great eggs.
