If you enjoyed the first series or if you've never heard about this show, you should really go watch the first two episodes on the site www.korranation.com

I'm really hoping this show can live up to original. They've constructed such an awesome world.

Is it just me that finds this totally amazing?


Even understanding how the table works, it still blows my mind seeing it in action. Just cause of how awesome it is that we've figured something like this out.

I <3 science and technology

"So without sucking up to this audience..."

followed by

"every 4 years south carolina I think shapes the presidential election more than any other state."

I know he's saying for Colbert to not suck up...but I just find it funny.

Anyone else notice how either the pundits or candidates have said at each state that THIS state is the one that shapes the process more than any other? Gotta love it.

Correct me if I'm completely making this up, but does this have to do with the weight of the puppy's head relative to his body at this age?

He sticks his head out further, resulting in this adorable display of tipping over!

Or maybe he's just that excited for kibbles and bits.

Gay, straight... I think we ALL enjoy seeing NPH getting humped.

Maybe it's because I browse reddit too much, but I didn't want to like this. Memes can be funny, but not for something serious like this right? I think they're a bit overused even on a place like reddit.

...But damn if I didn't think this was adorable by the end!

That speed boat driver knows how to read! Great catch!

And I totally agree. Brodie Smith, the guy who throws the disk, has been doing quite a bit for ultimate's publicity recently. I'm pretty sure we even have a couple of his other videos here on the sift.

sweet!
i play a lot of ultimate and frisbee golf, and seeing things like this make me hope for the ever-increasing popularity of these fun and easy sports

For any that are wondering now that the spoilers are gone, this ends up being a drawing of Girl with a Pearl Earring by Johannes Vermeer.

Thanks for the quality! I was wondering if I should remove the tags and description that kind of give it away.

Thanks, I do alright. I think I need to sacrifice it if I ever plan on getting to bronze though.

Although an average of 67 votes per video is pretty sweet.

Wow, check out that average vote per video ratio!

Curses! You beat me to posting about this by an hour. This video has a shorter presentation, but for a slightly longer one with a bit of an explanation and one more cool trick not shown here (and classical music!) check this one out.

This is really cool stuff!

While you claim to disagree with Tyson here, I think he would actually agree with you! We are very different from chimps, but where does this ability to understand abstract concepts like math come from? I doubt a human isolated from our culture and learning tools would be discussing the finer points of differential equations, I wouldn't be surprised if they were more similar to a chimp than our vision of a human. If we disregard all the knowledge that we've accumulated over the centuries then I think the only difference that remains is that 1% difference in DNA. And all that we've accomplished, discovered and written down has been a result of that 1% difference applied over those centuries. Thus, we arrive at the current year, where we are certainly significantly different from chimps.

Then it becomes exciting to contemplate how much more complex and intelligent a being 1% different from us would be! Can we even begin to imagine what they know about the universe?

Much as I love Neil DeGrasse Tyson, I feel he's wrong on this. I've said it before, but I think our ability to understand abstract concepts such as math should mark us as sufficiently different from the other species on our planet.

The announcer's laugh says it all.

Almost looks alive.


The fluid looked so human-like, crawling out of and forming from the mixture, that I thought this was a music video for the song at first.

Very cool.
