Nick, Joe and Kevin Jonas are having to cancel their Zurich concert for tonight.

Youngest of the trio, Nick, 17, has come down with a respiratory infection.

The JoBros announced on their Twitter, saying, “We are sad to announce the cancellation of the Jonas Brothers concert for this evening in Zurich. Nick Jonas of the Jonas Brothers is ill with an upper respiratory infection of the nose and throat and the doctor has advised that he not speak or sing. This is the first time that the Jonas Brothers have ever cancelled a show for sickness and deeply regret that they will not be able to perform as a group tonight.

“The band, the management, and the promoter apologize that the show must be cancelled on such short notice. We will do everything we can to revisit Zurich in the future and perform for our wonderful fans. Tickets can be refunded as of Monday, 9 November until 31 December 2009 at the presale agency.”

Get well soon, Nick!

How many times has this happened to you? You hear the alarm clock and you hit snooze over and over so that you don’t have to get up right away.

But the alarm clocks that we have for you here today, you will not be able to ignore! All these clocks have secret strategies to make you get up and get moving.

The first one is really funny. When it goes off, it falls from the night table and hides. This way, when it goes off we have to get up and find it.

The second one is a game. When it goes off you have to hit the bullseye to stop it. This is a hard task when you have just awoken.

The puzzle alarm gets your brain going first thing in the morning. The only way to stop the noise is to put the puzzle pieces in the right spots.

Then there is the alarm that goes further away each time it goes off. Every time you want to hit snooze you have to reach a bit further until you just give up and end up getting out of bed.

The last alarm uses loud noises to shake you awake. How would you like to wake up to the sound of a fire truck in your bedroom?
