As a Carleton alum, I approve this video.

I feel compelled to add another Wow.

quoth wikipedia: The rainbow-light effect seen in daylight on ctenophores is not bioluminescence but merely diffraction of ambient light by the beating comb rows.

I was fascinated by them when I studied inverts

Waste of a perfectly good name...

Thank you for opening my eyes/ears to Kent (Kent - Kärleken Väntar)! I like to listen to non-english music a lot (mostly German, some French and Spanish) and I am always looking for more. I ordered a CD (from Sweden) and have spent much of the day listening to their music (and strumming along on the ukulele when I can, since most of their songs have chords and lyrics on Kent's web site)

Nice song, easy to pay on the ukulele but not available on iTunes (US or Sweden) dagnabbit!
[CD on order, thanks eBay. BTW, go to Kent's You Tube channel and many, if not most videos are not available: "This video is not available in your country"
You can see them at their web site and on you tube from other submitters. I've spent much of the day listening to their music]

From Wikipedia: The Droste effect is a Dutch term for a specific kind of recursive picture, one that in heraldry is termed mise en abyme. An image exhibiting the Droste effect depicts a smaller version of itself in a place where a similar picture would realistically be expected to appear. This smaller version then depicts an even smaller version of itself in the same place, and so on. Only in theory could this go on forever; practically, it continues only as long as the resolution of the picture allows, which is relatively short, since each iteration exponentially reduces the picture's size. It is a visual example of a strange loop, a self-referential system.

I like to use a ricer--guaranteed lumpless

This is already sifted. Can I unvote? http://www.videosift.com/video/Did-You-Know-3-0. Someone more privileged than I needs to dupof=

One of the few albums I owned way back when. Still do, but I haven't had a record player for 20 years. Oughta go get it from iTunes...

Memories of a 4th of July. The head of the Fire Department thought it would be a great idea to kick off the fireworks with a hydrogen baloon. It was more than they bargained for--blew out the windshield on a city vehicle and damaged the Chief of Police's hearing. He got a little time off, I think, but still has his job. Hasn't tried it again though...

If I was privileged, I'd say something about animation, but Siftbot knows I'm not

now that is my favorite scene.

Not *my* favorite part. Ahh, Venus...

Not suitable for my workplace, but Siftbot won't take my invocation. Not wildly fond of rap, but I like it more when it isn't in english
