You may recall from a Mechanics course that the period of a pendulum is proportional to the square root of the length of the line suspending the weight - i.e., the longer the pendulum, the slower it swings. 

Harvard students built a device with a series of 15 pendulums in a row, each one slightly longer than its neighbor, then set them in motion and filmed the result.

The resulting patterns in this short video are quite fascinating to watch.

The amphibious car would be a lot of fun. Some of the less young R/Fers might remember the Aquacar that hit the US market circa 1961. I'm assuming it would require both a land license and a water license...

If I had one, it would cut the trip to my mother's house from 18 miles to about 4. She lives just across the river from me...

I've got a few photos of that amphibious car here at at the 2009 Keels and Wheels Boat and Car Show at Lakewood Yacht Club in Seabrook, TX on 2-May-2009.  They did demonstrate it on Clear Lake, but I didn't get photos of that.  These were shot with my Samsung Point-n-Shoot Camera, before I bought a DSLR.

As a side note, 1960's Shelby Mustangs were the featured "modern" cars that year, and Duesenbergs were the featured antique cars.

I'm sure you all have seen the Birds of Prey shows at various faires.  Check out this video of slow-motion Eagle Owl coming toward the camera for a treat... http://www.dogwork.com/owfo8/
