Aluminum Casting of Ant Colony

Awesome Invention!!!

This is by far one of the coolest inventions I've seen in a long time.  You can fill 100 water balloons in under a minute, and they are automatically tied!  Seriously???  Just as cool, this is a Christian company.  Love this quote by the inventor: "The name of my business is TINNUS, which stands for, ‘There Is Nothing New Under the Sun.' For me, it’s a matter of God bringing it to my mind.  I can’t create something new. I can just work with the things He’s already made and this product is a good example of that.”

Creation Vs Evolution Debate

We enjoyed watching this debate last night between Ken Ham, Answers in Genesis CEO, and Bill Nye, the Science Guy.  It generated a lot of discussion, especially between Greg and Kylen.  Seemed like we were pausing every 10-15 minutes to talk about what we heard, what we believe, and whether the points made were valid.  I believe it's important for children to thoroughly understand the arguments on both sides of controversial issues in order to defend their own beliefs intelligently.

Fascinating Behavior of Water Droplets

Here is another interesting video from Science Friday Kylen and I enjoyed.  It's about water droplets.  Near the end, they travel through a maze.  :-)

Soap, Candy Corn, and Space

What do these three things have in common?  Here's a video that uses candy corn in space to explain how soap works!
