Burning water

Now that is something to either laugh about or truely consider. I haven´t considered converting my car, but if fuel-prices keep rising like that it might be a idea to fool around with.
Read yourself.

Homemade Protein Energy Shake

Now something for those little McScrooges out there not willing to pay insane prices for protein products, that can be perfectly produced at home. The English Institute of Sport has posted the recipe on its homepage. A big pro for this, is the fact that you can flavor you shake in any way you like. I like mine choclate-vanilla or strawberry. Take cherries, or bananas. Try everything you like. (The link may be broken, but I posted the recipe anyway.)
