Today I Am Reaching

OK, so I've got this really bizarre idea for a story, but I need some help.  The idea hinges around famous principles, laws, theories, and beliefs whose common names all include possessive proper nouns, such as:

Chekhov's Gun
Pavlov's Dog
Schrodinger's Cat
Murphy's Law
Planck's Constant
Maxwell's Demon Ockham's Razor

Those are all the ones I can think of that fit the format--they all have the apostrophe, see?  Here's where you come in: I need more!  If you can think of another to add to this list, please leave a comment.  I don't care if they're scientific, literary, or whatever, as long as they have the apostrophe and someone besides you has heard of it before.  Thanks!
