I first became aware of Saosin’s existence some time in 2003, when a song of theirs was played on the radio. What got my attention was the name more than the song, because although the song was not bad, it wasn’t exactly my kind of music. So it isn’t surprising that Saosin has played little part in my life’s soundtrack for the past few years. Of course, I have a few memories that involve songs of theirs – mainly Seven Years and Voices, because, let’s face it – these are the ones that got serious airplay.

Miniature horse foal Einstein may be the world's tiniest horse

Einstein, the little (and we do mean little) foal pictured above, was born Friday at a miniature-horse farm in Barnstead, N.H. At birth, he weighed just 6 pounds and measured 14 inches tall -- tiny even by miniature-horse standards.

Einstein's Lilliputian stature has caused his owner, Rachel Wagner, to speculate that he might be a record-breaker. The current record-holder for smallest horse is Thumbelina, an adult miniature-horse mare who measures just 17 inches tall. (At birth, Thumbelina weighed slightly more than Einstein, but she was also a few inches shorter.) Wagner has submitted paperwork to the Guinness World Records company with a view toward unseating Thumbelina, she told the Concord Monitor.
