February stories at the Flying Circus of Physics web site.

(1) Lucky shots (including long-distance basketball shots and over-the-shoulders throwing of a key ring onto a hook).

(2) How a Doonesbury cartoon causes me to flash back to my days at MIT and what that has to do with non-newtonian fluids. (3) Video showing what happens to a truck in a strong wind.

(4) Pub trick of the month: a theatrical way to remove the foam on a beer.

(5) Article of the month: the physics of Slime, Silly Putty, cornstarch, ketchup, and other fluids with weird viscosities.
