An entertaining video of juggler Chris Bliss's routine set to music from the Beatles.  Sure, he only uses 3 balls... it's still way better than I can over hope to do.

SciFi Channel: you owe me an hour.

Here's the elevator pitch: take the cheerleader from Heroes, stick her in a shadowy government agency like Sydney from Alias and have them hunt super bad guys like Buffy from... well... Buffy.

I really wanted to like Painkiller Jane... a hero who heals rapidly, bad guys with mind control powers and a group of bad-ass G-men protecting the world.  Combine that with some cool music and stylish cinematography and you can't loose.

You know there's a "but" coming don't you?  Here's the thing: they hired creative writing students from the local community college to write the scripts.  I guess they needed to make sure there was money left over to hire someone to write little mini games for their web site.

Look on the bright side, remember how you were trying to figure out if you should record the new SciFi channel show starring the sexy female terminator from T3 or a rerun of Myth Busters?  Problem solved. 

The clever folks at the Cumbria board of tourism have come up with a novel plan to get "the YouTube generation" connect with the Poetry of William Wordsworth.

This year marks the 200th anniversary of Wordsworth's poem "I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud ", a work apparently inspired by the beauty of the Cumbria Lake District.  To honor the anniversary the board of tourism has graciously given the poem a dust-off.. "to help the next generation of Lake District visitors connect with his work."

And just how do you help the next generation connect with Wordsworth poetry?  Well, it's plainly obvious, you turn it into a rap... performed by a guy in a squirrel suit.

You have to give them points for creativity... but marketing acumen? I'm not convinced your average Barney fan is really going to be making travel plans.
