Hawking was born exactly 300 years to the day of Galileo’s death and died on the anniversary of Einstein’s birth. And just as it was Galileo who experimented with gravitational physics, and Einstein who created new theories of gravity and the atom, Hawking devoted much of his energies to link them into a unified theory. He did this by thinking about what a black hole would look like and how it would behave if it were the size of an atom.(1)
It should also be noted that he died on March 14, 2018. That was Pi Day 3.14!

Although I haven’t use these exact ones, zippered pouches help organize your small items like repaint kits, first aid items and personal hygiene kits. For some reason they seem to be hard to find, so when I saw this on Facebook, I thought I would share it here.
Coaches,
I’m super excited that RECF has decided to create Spectator Reference Cards for VRC & VIQ this season. You can find them them posted at the links below. They are each a 1 page landscape reference card that is great to share around to your parents or other folks who are not as in-the-know about VEX competitions as the coaches and students. I encourage our parents to take a picture of it to have handy on their phone and have even seen some laminate them to have at tournaments. I’ve included a picture of the VRC one below so you can see what it looks like.
