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
