I pucker my face at the mention of beet. Have never been able to stand its smell or taste.
But this video had me drooling.
beet cake from tiger in a jar on Vimeo.
Beautifully filmed. Every action, slow and deliberate. Catchy music and vibrant colours.
Only, the font didn't work for me.

The animal kingdom has much to teach us, but, are we listening?
There is much my family and I have learnt from Chotu. These five years of being with him have opened us to myriad emotions and thoughts. Every day, we learn more, not just about dogs, but about other animals and human beings.
I wouldn't be off the mark if I said that Chotu makes me more human than any human ever has.
While you disagree, I will go and hunt for the movie.

This is a very engaging video of the Norwegian Royal Guard performance (apparently on ice).
Apart from the famous "The Good, the Bad & the Ugly" theme, around 6:28 you should be able to spot the tune of a melodious bollywood song.
Ofcourse, we are the copycat here, as explained here.
Interesting find this has been.

The below is a 9 minute video on Esref Armagan – a Turkish man without sight.
The video is remarkable as it shows Esraf drawing and painting with much finesse. We are also reminded again that we really know very little about the human brain.
I would be much interested in understanding how Esraf is able to determine the colors of landscapes he paints. Just how does he ever understand that the sky is supposed to be blue and a tree is supposed to be green?
I once taught a visually challenged girl and found it extremely difficult to explain the concept of colors. During one of my sessions with her, I was meant to explain stuff like guessing the time of the day by looking at the color of the sun and its placement in the sky. I started with using dense terms like deep red and burning orange and sunny yellow till she happened to mention that she had never ever seen and probably will never see what these shades look like.
Just how does one explain how cool the sun looks with a tinge of red in the morning sky, to someone who has never had the luxury of vision?

After a week filled with shock, disbelief, hurt, depression and anger - This video brought my roaring laughter back !
Thanks PsW :)
The best statement in the whole video is -
Ben - "The subprime problem is a problem, but it is a Tiny problem..."
tiny?Tiny?? TINY DID HE SAY???
A problem, that many say, could take down some $60 Trillion down the drain....
Time for some more roars :)) :)) :))
