The size of it all...
How - The best free videos are right here
Ever wonder how large some of those stars were out there? You think our Sun is big. Check out the video for a real idea at the scale of our celestial bodies in the universe. This tends to put things into perspective for me.

Hulu adds Anime...
Hulu has just added Anime to it's already huge list of video offerings. Available now are full seasons of Death Note (Season 1 Episode 1: Rebirth, above) and a few others like Naruto, Astro Boy and Mushi-shi. I don't know about you but this is going to put a dent in my TV watching time.

Through analysis scientists beileve the planet to be 8 times the size of Jupiter and roughly 330 times the distance of Earth to our Sun from it's own Sun.

Cure for cancer?
I could not believe this when I heard about this... then I found this video. Apparently there is is this drug called DCA that some Canadian scientists have been working on that cures/kills many forms or cancer including lung and breast cancer. Why have you not heard of it before? Well... There is no money in it. Unbelievable!!! It sickens me to think there is no money in a cure. Yet tons of money in interest for a drug that can keep you barely alive. How can there be no money in it?!? As is pointed out by the commentator wouldn't insurance companies save millions per year on claims alone? Human trials are supposed to begin soon or already have. Hopefully someone will wake up and get this moving in the right direction. I know myself that if I had cancer... I'd sell the farm for a cure. Check out the video...
Claremont downhill run...
This is easily one of the coolest skateboard videos I have seen in a while. These guys are hauling ass and trading off the camera while doing it. I myself have rode this hill on a motorcycle... so, I know how fast they could be going. Insane! Though, I personally would have recommended a few more articles of protective gear. I suppose it wouldn't have been as cool as them riding down in their powder blue suits. LOL

Have your 360 write it's own blog.
Just found this mulling around on the web @ 360 Voice. With this service you sign up your Live account and your Xbox 360 will actually write it's own blog. It updates the blog with your activity and any gamer points you receive. Even if you don't play the blog updates itself with funny anecdotes about how you are apparently ignoring your 360. Check it out here.
