it welcome to Cafe Zoom Ashley and M of
Birmingham Alabama emailed us the recipe
for lasagna rollups here's what you'll
need 8 oz of cooked lasagna noodles
that's about a half of this pack and
we'll probably make 10 rollups but make
sure that you have an adult help you
cook the noodles ricotta cheese shredded
mozzarella cheese two eggs lightly
beaten and a jar of pasta sauce first
preheat the oven to
350° then pour some pasta sauce the
bottom of a baking
pan ah smells so
good
splatter
okay spread
that love the smell of pasta
sauce
okay
then take two cups of ricotta
cheese one cup of shredded
mozzarella and two
eggs put them into a bowl and mix
them
M
ew uh pass the sauce in here that's okay
doesn't
matter
oh kind of messy be
careful doesn't look that appetizing
really at first but when it's all cooked
and everything it's going to be really
good but don't eat it in the B because
it's got Ry in it and that's really bad
for you you could get really
sick okay I think that's
good then lay out one lasagna
noodle and these are the cooked
on and put some your cheese stuff on it
make sure that you leave room on along
the sides and at the ends because if you
don't when you roll it up the cheese
will just ooze
out little
more I love Las on and this is good cuz
it's really easy to
make roll
up and put your rollup seam down on a
baking
pan just make another
one
oh come
on shees won't
cooperate okay roll it
up then once you're done with all of
your noodles take your pasta sauce again
and pour it on
top
okay then put it in the oven for 15
minutes at
350°

what hi my name is Callie I live in
Cleveland and this is my dog James oh
bushes James is my
responsibility I have to walk him I have
to give him a bath I have to feed him
every day and make sure he has fresh
water yep I even going have to pick a
poop after him that's no fun but you've
got to do it to take care of your pet I
could do all that but what was I going
to do about James's loud
bark the answer was easy come a little
closer and I'll tell you I taught my dog
out a
whisper it was pretty easy and you can
do it too it started out as kind of a
mistake I was trying to teach my dog how
to speak I'd wave around one of these
dog cookies with James sitting down and
command him to speak speak James
speak James finally started figuring out
that he had to do something to get a
cookie at first he didn't bark he just
kind of moved his mouth and it made me
laugh because it was kind of like my dog
was whispering or something good boy so
I got the idea to say
whisper and then every time he'd start
moving his snoot I give him a cookie now
he'll whisper whenever I want watch
Whisper good boy he finally figured out
what speak means and he knows the
whisper command too so now he can do
both tricks
speak
whisper
Speak oh so what can you do a whispering
dog well you can walk in P the
library or you can walk him past the
hospital
sound he can whisper Secret in your ear
but he might lick it too it's pretty fun
to have a quiet
dog no if only I could teach my brother
to be
quiet

mallerie J of Shelton Connecticut sent
us a letter about how she's been
experimenting with pendulums well she
inspired us to experiment with a
pendulum of our own we're going to see
if we can get it to go back and forth in
5 seconds here's a pendulum we built to
meet the challenge we made it at a
string a cup
sand for weight and since we didn't have
a tree we use this
Branch okay so what you want to do first
I think we should time it from where it
is now not just
like that because that doesn't go
anywhere but take it the way it is now
the length of the string it is and just
swing it back do you want to Mark a
place so that we can always have a
certain place to go from yeah because
otherwise we might end up like going we
might go from here and then we might
want to add more weight and another
place yeah go from up there okay so
where do you want to start it from about
right here and
that's you think that's right yeah that
looks about right from up here okay
go
1.6 seconds wow I guess that didn't work
yeah we have to make it we have to do
something to it do you think that making
the string longer will make it go
further yeah cuz then it would go
further distance right cuz if it's down
here would have to go from like like
think of it as a triangle and if it's at
the top it's at the point and it doesn't
need to go as far but if it's at the
bottom the base of it oh yeah that goes
go farther so I'll tie it from the top
and
go
225 wow that's strange I think because
now it's so low that it's not going very
far but why would it stop going far just
cuz it's slow because there's not much
string at the top to let loose that's
what I think I think we should cuz we
can pull it back farther cuz now we have
a lot more rope oh so it will be as Fair
it would be the same as it being short
and okay I got
you
okay Mark this spot with tape too now it
has a lot lot of string okay okay ready
go 230 Four 3 seconds short yeah from
what we had before I think we should add
more weight because we're not really
getting anywhere with pulling it back
further cuz when we pull it back too far
it gets to be so that it goes faster see
so you think that the lighter it is the
faster it goes
because because then air can push it
this way more it's like if you try to
pull push a heavy Rock forward it's a
lot harder than pushing a light rock
forward so how far far do you want to
fill it up to like the tape that would
get it really far okay yeah let's try to
exaggerate it a lot like put a lot in
and see what
happens and
go 234 again try no move back a little
with it so I think we should Mark it
again from another
spot hello from right here
okay Ready Set Go
wow that's going fast 243 waight the
weight doesn't seem to be making a
difference I know I think that the
heavier it is the faster it goes
actually because it can gain more
momentum and it goes like that so I
don't think weight actually does
anything we realize that the weight of
the pendulum doesn't really have an
effect on how fast it goes but it's the
length of the string that does so to
make the pendulum go back and forth in
exactly 5 Seconds we'd have to make the
pendulum longer so we're we going to go
make it longer in order to get the
pendulum to swing back and forth in 5
seconds we had to make it really long we
also had to add some weight to the
bottom so that the Rope would swung
straight but we know that the weight
doesn't affect how fast the pendulum
goes you want to test it yeah all right
okay tell me when
go it's doing
good 5 Seconds you got it all right oh
my gosh I got it I'm so
happy jumping want to do it again
yes 5 Seconds 5 Seconds 5
Seconds yeah we got it yeah we're so
good good job oh yeah good working with

hey Kenny yep what is the largest ant in
the world I don't know a GI ant a
[Music]
giant see this marker it looks green
right but it's actually also blue and
yellow to prove it Hillary R of
Plainsboro New Jersey sent us an email
telling us how to separate the different
colors that have been mixed together in
a marker she says it's called
chromatography all you have to do is
draw a circle on a paper towel using a
washable color
marker
Okay add drops of water to the center of
the circle one drop at a time until the
water spreads through the outside of the
circle the water allows the colors and
the ink to separate as the water moves
through the paper towel it leaves behind
the individual colors blue and yellow
that had be mixed together in the green
marker wow that looks great what do you
think would happen if we tried it with a
black marker I don't know I maybe if um
like all if you mix all the colors
together it turns into black so maybe if
you
like put the water on it it might like
separate into a lot of different colors
oh yeah that' be really coose okay then
do it too heavy I
want
oops cool it's blue yeah you can see
blue wao orange who would expect that I
know cuz black is such a dark color and
orange such a light color that is really
weird it's
awesome then there's white coming out
too but that's really cool the Orange is
like yellowy though
yeah I like this color this yellowy
greenish try this using washable markers
that you have at home see how many
colors you can get to come out of one
marker or see if all brands use the same
color combination then send your
discoveries to
zoom hey Jesse yeah what did bug thing
