YouTubesday:Haiti Water, Peace Freeze, War Stress, and Ultimate Frisbee

Water of Life, Haiti Water Project video

Union Station Freeze for Peace (sort of a take off of Improv Everywhere)

The Stress of War (related to my PTSD post on Friday)

And here are some ultimate frisbee highlights since I was watching a tournament this weekend (not from the tournament though)

YouTubesday: Tutu, Def Poetry, Fans, Jesus and Purple State

I saw Desmond Tutu speak the other day at a Peace Jam event. This is a short promo video for the 2006 event, but still a good clip to hear him in. If you don’t know who he is you should pick up his book.

Steve Connell “… why not wine coolers” (ht. Mark):

Now this is a little league game as it should be:

A trailer for a very interesting looking video, Lord Save Us From Your Followers (ht. lucas):

And one final sweet trailer, A Purple State of Mind (ht. TWotP):

YouTubesday: Immigrants, Awareness Test, Strokes, Water and B-Boys

(Email Subscribers, You have to visit the site to see the videos mentioned below, they really are here!)

One Immigrant’s Story:

An Awareness Test:

A wildly interesting TED Video (ht. jonathan):

A car that runs on salt water (ht. fousty):

A sweet looking movie trailer (ht. Jeremy):

YouTubesday: Colonize Mars with Google! One Dollar Water, J. Wright and Healthcare

Dude, your not going to believe this, check this out:

One Dollar Water (ht. wotp)

And with an effort not to make a statement one way or the other at the moment, I just figured those who haven’t heard any of Jeremiah Wright’s sermons and statements in context should watch this clip (ht. Will):

I tend not to promote commercial videos, but being as my wife is in the healthcare industry, I thought this was pretty cool (ht. virgil):

YouTubesday: Why We Fight, Who Killed The Electric Car, and More

Figure I should just post some good videos I’ve watched recently.

Why We Fight is phenomenal. It really makes you angry, or at least should raise some questions if your pro-war. Below is the trailer:

Somebody put the entire movie up in multiple segments on youtube. You can find it here.

Who Killed The Electric Car? is also a very interesting documentary. It definitely raises some questions about why we aren’t farther along then we should be as it relates to more sustainable transportation. Trailer below:

And the best way to get a hold of both of these movies is…
1. Check them out from your local library
2. Get them from Redbox for free (I can walk to the one at Cub down the street from my house. But you have to return them by 9pm the next night). Free Codes Here.
