From Wichita State University’s Fairmont Center comes Liquid Nitrogen
Demos, a page devoted to experiments that teach high-school students
the physics of liquid nitrogen. Less educational, but just as
fun, is 1001 things to do with Liquid Nitrogen, a page of sophomoric
tricks originally put together by the University of Frankfurt’s
Frank Illenberger.

Casino-21 is the name of an innovative project whose aim is to
enlist the help of the world’s personal-computer users to help
understand how Earth’s climate is changing. Once enough would-be
climate modelers have signed up, the project, based at the UK’s
Rutherford–Appleton Laboratory, will give each participant a unique
model to install and run on his or her PC like a screen saver.
