Gomboc: World's First Self-Righting Object

Please please please note the distinction between an equilibrium and a "stable point". Both a Weeble and a gomboc have two equilibria, one of which is stable and the other is unstable. The unstable equilibrium is the one on which the object "could, theoretically, be balanced;" the fact that it moves to the other point if it's perturbed even slightly from the unstable point is what makes it unstable.

Another strange thing is the wide variation in detail given in the caption of each one; so it's "Jamie Lee Curtis" vs. "Dwight D. Eisenhower, the thirty-fourth president, was a cheerleader during his high school years in Abilene, Kansas."
