When Conservation of Energy FAILS! (Noether's Theorem)

Go to http://audible.com/thescienceasylum or text 'thescienceasylum' to 500 500 to get started today. Is energy always conserved? Well, Noether's theorem in combination with Lagrangian mechanics and general relativity tells us that isn't true in general.
