 Corporations Dictate Somewhat silly little video (1min 17sec) about a Way Important Topic: Nazi Pussy - Defend Your Internet. Net Neutrality - You are in control of the internet. This means that you decide what you download, read and put online. This means freedom of speech on a massive scale. You are the one deciding the content regardless of who owns the network. This freedom is what we call Network Neutrality.
And the big corporations are shutting it down. Without this freedom, the internet would be more like cable TV; a one-away medium. Which is exactly what the big internet providers like AT&T, Time Warner, Verizon and Comcast want to turn it into. And they can, because all the internet traffic goes through their cables. |

 Internet Freedom Marches Video (6min 29sec): The Death of The Internet? Major telecommunications companies are spending millions lobbying the U.S. congress to make the Internet into a private network.
In political lingo this means abandoning what is called "Net Neutrality". In common sense terms it's about the government withdrawing our right to Internet Freedom. This V-Doc. (viral documentary) is about the current threat to Internet Freedom and how we can hold on to the open Internet and our right to communicate.
The only way the telecommunications companies will be successful is if we fail to raise awareness about this situation. If people find out about the fact that we are about to lose our Internet freedom there is no way they will allow congress to do this.
This congressional decision will set a monumental precedent, and thus, impact not just U.S. citizens, but citizens all over world. |

 Congressman Ron Paul Congressman Ron Paul (Tx-R) on the Internet and Freedom video (1min 43sec). Ron Paul discusses his views on internet regulations.
"I think in our campaign, which is different - we've got a long way to go, we're on what I call 'the up slope'. Our numbers go up each day and the amount of money that's coming in is improving, so the Internet is it. The internet is the big thing. That doesn't mean you can do everything on the Internet, but it might be the real organizer..."
"Truth is we have trouble keeping up with the spontaneous organization of groups around the country just popping up. It's literally freedom. So when I talk about freedom and people know about the freedom of the Internet, there must be a connection there. Oh yeah, freedom and the internet..."
"And of course, I don't want to tax the Internet. I don't want to regulate the Internet. It's one this that allows us to combat this horrendous movement to big government..." |

 1 Fractal 1 Universe Video (3min 30sec) of An extremely deep dive into the mandelbrot zoom (fractal). If the final frame were the size of your screen, the full set would be larger than the known universe. "A fractal as a geometric object generally has the following
features: It has a fine structure at arbitrarily small scales. It is too irregular to be easily described in traditional
Euclidean geometric language. It is self-similar (at least
approximately or stochastically). It has a Hausdorff dimension which is greater than its topological dimension (although this requirement is not met by space-filling curves such as
the Hilbert curve). It has a simple and recursive definition.
Because they appear similar at all levels of magnification,
fractals
are often considered to be infinitely complex (in informal terms).
Natural objects that approximate fractals to a degree include clouds,
mountain ranges, lightning bolts, coastlines, and snow flakes. However,
not all self-similar objects are fractals—for example, the real
line (a straight Euclidean
line) is formally self-similar but fails to have other fractal
characteristics.

 X-Plane Airshow Oh Wow! this is a great X-Plane video (9min 8sec) by some X-Plane aces - a great choice of music, spectacular flying and excellent videography. More than fun.
This video is really a tribute to the planes and the pilots of X-Plane. You can really see some practiced fliers at work here. The video starts off with some stunt flying in military fighters, then to fighters doing 'touch and go' aircraft carrier operation, and then to some heavy duty military transports and helicopters. This truly is a real airshow for X-Plane. Some of the planes include F-14, A380, F-16, F/A-18, F/A-2151, Mirage and lot more. Music by U2 - "Vertigo", Audioslave - "Be Yourself", and Sin City - "Cells".... See for yourself. Hot! |
