"Disproving evolution is easy"

I followed a YouTube link from the "Obey Authority" kid rockers and it turned out to be surprisingly entertaining:

A Holiday Classic

And by classic, I mean *super* racist.

It's kind of like clog... dancing... with your hands. Very hypnotic and very Russian.

Random excellent scene from a great flick. The rants that kick off around 2:16 are what everyone remembers, but the preceding scene is a great slow burn itself.

Army of 50,000 Persian Skeletons Arises From the Desert

Or something like that.

Jamie, this seemed very up your alley, but it's also just cool in general...

Vanished Persian army said found in desert
50,000 soldiers believed buried by a cataclysmic sandstorm in 525 B.C.


The remains of a mighty Persian army said to have drowned in the sands of the western Egyptian desert 2,500 years ago might have been finally located, solving one of archaeology's biggest outstanding mysteries, according to Italian researchers.

Bronze weapons, a silver bracelet, an earring and hundreds of human bones found in the vast desolate wilderness of the Sahara desert have raised hopes of finally finding the lost army of Persian King Cambyses II. The 50,000 warriors were said to be buried by a cataclysmic sandstorm in 525 B.C.

"We have found the first archaeological evidence of a story reported by the Greek historian Herodotus," Dario Del Bufalo, a member of the expedition from the University of Lecce, told Discovery News.

So it turns out...

...that Poland has a tradition of amazing graphic design to their movie posters. Seems to me they've got more in common with 50s and 60s book and magazine design than America's literalist/realist movie posters. They're very artsy and cool and weird. Go see them!

Arkham Asylum gameplay vid

I posted the trailer for this a few weeks back, but they just released a vid of in-game stealth action and it looks pretty great to me (in spite of the Brit narrator who sounds like a nineteen-year-old soccer hooligan).

I had trouble embedding it, but the link is HERE, and if anyone can make it embed, please just edit it in.
