Spring is right around the corner, and the temperatures will also be spring-like throughout the week (think 70's and 80's!!). However, don't expect sunshine and rainbows during this time period; cloudy skies and scattered showers will dominate the weather pattern Wednesday through Friday. On Saturday morning, a cold front will swing through, knocking the temperatures back down into the mid-60's.

Ready for spring? I sure am, too! The Vernal Equinox will occur at 5:14 GMT (or 12:14am EST) on Tuesday, March 20th. I like to celebrate spring by listening to Antonio Vivaldi's Le Quattro Stagioni, also known as the The Four Seasons. Of course, I will be playing the La primavera movements that day!! How do you like to celebrate Spring?

Also mark your calendar for Tuesday, March 13th - GPB will be airing The InVenture Prize at Georgia Tech! Created and organized by faculty of Georgia Tech, the objective of The InVenture Prize is to create incentives, resources, and a structure for undergraduate student innovation and entrepreneurship in a fun, high-profile event. Tune in to GPB TV on March 13th at 7:00 PM to see the 6 finalists demonstrate and defend their innovations in front of a panel of expert judges. David Pogue of the New York Times will also be hosting the show this year - you definitely do not want to miss out on this television event!

UPDATE: The White House interviewed two Georgia Tech students at the Institute's Invention Studio! Check out the article here!
