Here’s a video from a 5–0’s dash that recorded a “tractor truck” size meteor:
Brian Williams: “The search is on in Canada for the impact site?”
What the?!?! They better find that thing. That thing was huge—that’s what she said! For something that bright and in plain sight of the cop patrolling, they should know at least where to start. Dang… that’s scary if they don’t find it. You think it’s a coincidence with all these Armageddon-likemovies coming out?
Update
The video from Hulu is no longer available. I have updated the post with the one from Youtube.
Oh man… this had me going—freaking hilarious. I think Justin Timberlake was going to host this upcoming Saturday or something but can’t anymore due to the Holidays. So he popped in and did Weekend Update and a skit with Beyonce. Just in case you missed it this past Saturday’s SNL, here it is1.
Note: Beyonce’s Single Ladies is the latest single from her new album, “I am… Sasha Fierce”. You can now grab it either on iTunes or Amazon.com.
Please do let me know if this one is not available. NBC does not have it yet in Hulu, and the ones in Youtube are being targeted for removal. [↩]
After the presidential debate last night, most high profile channels ran ads from oil companies (ABC had Chevron, CBS had Exxon, and CNN had the coal lobby). Noticing that there’s something a bit off, the We Campaign1 is flagging ABC to reconsider their actions for refusing to run the Repower America ad (below) last week2.
ABC recently refused to run our Repower America ad, even though they run ads from oil companies that mislead the American people about the role fossil fuels play in the climate crisis.
They recently started a petition and sent out a message earlier this afternoon:
Our Repower America ad has a clear and simple message—that massive spending by oil and coal companies on advertising is a key reason our nation hasn’t switched to clean and renewable sources for our energy.
The petition is to “send a message to ABC and tell them to air the Repower America ad this Friday on 20/20.” The We Campaign is working on getting 100,000 public comments to ABC before 20/20’s next airing. They are currently (at the time of this posting) near 25,000 mark.
You can get more info, sign the petition, view the ad, etc. by going to: wecansolveit.org/ABC
The We Campaign is a project of The Alliance for Climate Protection—a nonprofit, nonpartisan effort founded by Nobel laureate and former Vice President Al Gore. The goal of the Alliance is to build a movement that creates the political will to solve the climate crisis—in part through repowering America with 100 percent of its electricity from clean energy sources within 10 years. Our economy, national security, and climate can’t afford to wait. [↩]
The ad that takes on the same oil and coal lobby. [↩]
Ever since dropping Season-3 on tubes everywhere this past Monday night, NBC subliminally stated to the other networks, “We’re back bitches!” Meanwhile, I rarely watch TV when I get home other than watch MNF, ESPN and FOX Sports to keep up with Sports in general. Ever since getting a Hulu invite a couple months ago, I have been more than impressed with how far it has come from its days of closed beta.
Anyways, a couple of TV shows that I have been following lately are: Heroes, Chuck, The Office, My Name is Earl, and Kitchen Nightmares to name a few. On that end, I have to give it up to NBC in letting Chuck fans have a sneak peek of Season-2’s first episode available on Hulu days before its premiere on Primetime this upcoming Monday, September 29th. You may watch it below. But best to do so soon as its suppose to expire in 2-days.
Kitchen Nightmares Season-2 Premiere: Handlebar. This is actually the 2nd episode, but the 1st one was just a summary of what happened in Season-1.
PS. On a side note (Design-wise), the only biggest grudge at the moment with Hulu is the dimension it uses: 512px by 296px. Hence, at the time of this writing, I have my main content’s width to 550px. I would like to have 500px to keep things clean and in order but with the use of different video sites (i.e. Youtube, Hulu, Video, …), it is safer to use this much space for now; though it irks me when the copy goes of to the right of a 500px video.
