The Mathematics of Crime
I think I've posted this before, but it's worth watching again as I prepare you for my dissertation.
Putting things in focus
Once in a while, you need to just focus and see the beautiful things out there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=731h4B1QGJs
Playing fetch with a big, dumb, lovable dog
Sometimes even a very good dog decides that she's going to do what she wants to do and does it.
Video of the day: We want to be entertained. We need fiction.
Again, Max Landis, nails it. This is the end to a short film he made about wrestling. It's pretty entertaining, but the ending is where he nails it.

How Korea sees unwed mothers
This is an interesting and eye-opening video. It deals with how women in Korea are treated when they become pregnant out of wedlock. You think the United States is "conservative" about marriage... Just wait until you listen to this: http://youtu.be/f0SyJpn5Fp8 It is a very sobering video from an otherwise funny and informative couple of [...]
