Have you ever wished you could get a quality treadmill workout without paying expensive gym prices? Look no further than the Treadmill Bike by the Bicycle Forest. The Treadmill Bike offers the same fat burning benefits of a conventional treadmill without the membership fees!

Non Newtonian Fluids
Category: science
You must watch this video now:

It's a video of some scientists playing with cornstarch and water -- sounds boring, but the two form a non-newtonian fluid that is so fun to play with. You can replicate some of what they pull off here by filling a ziploc baggie partway full of water and cornstarch (mix it so it's about like pancake batter). Move the baggie quickly between your hands and it's like a rock.

Or you can mix some cornstarch and water in a cup -- put your finger in slowly and it's like mud. But if you poke it quickly you'll find it's super solid. Yip fer science!

Finger-like Protrusians rule my freaking world.

nice video link. I haven't tried it yet, but I am sure to be equally amused when I do.
