So the previous videos were terrible, but you can't mock this. Pity it's only representative of experimentation of 20 years ago and not more recent.

India - An Ancient Musical Culture

With great emotion, and with welling pride I present the present baton-carriers for an ancient cultural tradition of musical art of high excellence,

In instrumental virtuosity & showmanship


and in vocal excellence


Sniff. My eyes are filled with salt water.

How to fix a leak...

...a Skittles Leak.



These ads are priceless. The great thing is there are so many out there!

Welcome to the Brave New World

As always, it's like something from a comic book, but it's real. A robotic exoskeleton for soldiers. Eventually it will be part of a complete suit unit.



That's crazy.

Remember...

To wrer Her into your Haaar.

The best of the past

A faded remnant of past glory, but to misquote a lyric from the era: Wish I was there.

Ees so SillY!

I would never have thought two silly drunk Mexican crows would give me such joy.

He abla muchacho casa manana grande...

It's unmissable, in my book.

We're Despicable.

There's a parable in here, I'm sure of it.

An Inkjet Made My Bladder

Oh my gosh dang it what the heck freaks me out. Yes, it's the kind of thing that makes me talk like a giddy high schooler.

The title is actually true (except for the "my" part - my bladder is original stock, thank you). They're regenerating organs in a petri dish! If this is not stunning enough, check out the video - the 'how' will floor you.

This is insane. But immensely immensely amazing.
Doctor Anthony Atala heads up this fascinating project.

A Relevant Message

Paul Washer is a man on fire. I was just introduced to him, but he's famous (or infamous) for a message delivered in 2002 at a Southern Baptist youth convention in Alabama. I recommend taking the time to watch. I don't believe he was invited back.)



He's a missionary as well. And I think the interview below summarizes his ministry well. The Church would benefit greatly from the ministry of more people like him. His sense of urgency is indicative of someone who gets the importance of the task at hand and how far we have drifted from it.



Relevance isn't about preaching what necessarily wants to be heard, but preaching what needs to be heard, even when its not in season.

Watch, weep.

Some days it's hard to feel patriotic. There's not much to say after

The End is Here

There are many things that indicate the coming of the end of this current superpower - prophets of doom have pointed to the rise of the Spice Girls, Britney, and many such fearful cataclysms of the age.

However, I believe that when historians look back at our generation and attempt to pinpoint the one watershed event that started the fall of American Civilization, unanimously this will be it:



How can anyone miss it?

Funny of the Day

Sometimes you just need to smile.

Jesus Camp

Don't want to say much - but this video says a lot about many things. And I'm not going to comment.

More Bollywood Based Bounties

Lads and ladies, help. Is there a twelve step program? I'm hooked. Here's another keeper.

Bollyhood

It speaks for itself. This stuff is hilarious. Because it what it says we know is true.

The Rise of India

ABCNews did a feature on India when Bush visited, and I just found it. It's a great balanced outsiders view of where India is today, and what India can be in 50 years. It's more complicated, sure, but this guy doesn't have the usual bias.

Snippet:
"You see an explosion of 50 years of pent up aspirations. If you want to know what India feels like today, it's very simple. Pull out a Champagne bottle, shake it for an hour, then take the cork off. You don't want to get in the way of that cork."
