Susan Boyle sings on Britain's Got Talent
If ever there were an example of the old adage about judging books, Ms. Boyle is top of the list.
Remember that name.

I meant to post this a couple of days ago, but forgot. It's all in Dutch, so most of you won't have a clue what's being said (boring stuff about the future plans for the city of Almere), but I thought perhaps some of you would like to see a little of the city where I live.
Oh, as a little bit of trivia, Burgermeester Annemarie Jorritsma is the woman who presented me with my naturalization papers a couple of years back.

Meet Kingsford
If I wasn't afraid my dog would mistake it for moving bacon, I'd have one of these in a heartbeat. Sooooo cute!

Claymation Deathly Hallows
THIS is awesome - a labor of love from a fan, this adaptation is a faithful retelling of the last Harry Potter book in multiple parts. While it's not Tim Burton quality, it's well worth watching. :c)

If I tell you that I've only learned about The Watchmen in the last few months, do I have to hand in my Nerd card? :c)
At any rate, those of you with better geek cred than I have have probably already seen this, but I was really intrigued with how they did the inkblot effects on Rorschach's face.

Ein Zwei Die!
One of the most popular entries in this year's Sundance Film Festival was an unusual Norwegian film called "Dead Snow." It was picked up by IFC, and you can expect it in a theatre near you later this year.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you not just zombies, not just Nazis, but ZOMBIE NAZIS!

Nature is so effing amazing
"It’s no secret that people in the UK are forever complaining about the weather, but it seems this week they were well within their rights. For the first time ever a rare phenomenon usually only seen in extremely cold countries was spotted on the River Otten in Devon.
A massive spinning ice circle caught the attention of Roy Jefferies as he was walking his dog by the river last Wednesday morning. Measuring a whopping 10 ft in diameter, the rotating disc sat stationary in the river where two currents merge.
Mr Jefferies called a friend, Mr Blisset, who lived nearby, and just happens to have an interest in the strange and bizarre. He identified the ice disc as a true rare specimen."
I'd never heard of these before, and assumed it was some kind of "crop circle" type of thing, but apparently it *is* real.
Here's one in Ontario, Canada, that was filmed while spinning.
More photos here.
A couple of quick videos
I took these (very poor quality) videos yesterday while we were messing around on the ice, and I thought I'd share them with my flist. Especially those of you in warmer climes. :c)
