JUUSTIN BIEBER AT 12 ON STREETS OF TORONTO


HERE'S WHAT GOT POSTED ALONGSIDE THIS VID ON YOUTUBE: I am not Justin Bieber; my class and I went on a trip to Stratford, Ontario in Canada in Sept. 2007 and just happened to see him singing there on the steps of the Avon theater. He was 12 at the time. We had no idea he would blow up on the music scene so fast or so soon after we met him, but we knew he was (and still is) incredible. Also, there is much talking and laughing because a play just got out and people were walking by. Trust me, no one was laughing at him. Actually, all of us were kind of obsessed with him when we saw him, so if there was talking among us, we were probably saying how amazing he is.

VIRAL VIDEO OF THE DAY - LOST GENERATION THE VIRAL SENSATION


A palindrome reads the same backwards as forward. This video reads the exact opposite backwards as forward. Not only does it read the opposite, the meaning is the exact opposite. This is only a 1 minute, 44 second video and it is brilliant. Make sure you read as well as listen forward and backward. This is a video that was submitted in a contest by a 20-year old. The contest was titled "u @ 50" by AARP. This video won second place. When they showed it, everyone in the room was awe-struck and broke into spontaneous applause. So simple and yet so brilliant. Take a minute and watch it.
INSPIRING OR FULL OF IT? YOU DECIDE FOR YOURSELF....

DAVID DOODY MEETS HIS WESTLIFE HEROES

What a day….What a day….What a day!!!
Where do I start….My Brother-In-Law David Doody is 22 years old, is Downsyndrome, can’t speak & is looked after very well by his loving mother Helen. He’s got 6 brother’s & 3 sisters & he’s the youngest of 11. His idols are Westlife & when I heard on the radio yesterday morning that Shane & Nicky from Westlife were appearing at The Boardwalk I took it as a sign that once & for all he might have a chance to meet his idols. As over the years he’s driven me crazy with his Westlife Cd’s blaring at full volume in the car & me being a guy in his thirties probably not the coolest music to be playing but I don’t mind as it makes him happy. He’s been to all their shows in Millstreet but then they stopped playing there so we took him to Croke Park but the stage was just so far away & he really didn’t enjoy it as he couldn’t see them. His heart isn’t the greatest so I think Croke Park was a bit too much for him.


His father passed away unexpectedly last May & I do think he was looking down on us yesterday. As we waited outside for over an hour & the crowd was growing as kids were finishing school & coming down I really began to doubt we’d get to have his picture taken with them. But then a Blonde girl just popped outside for a minute & I asked her if there was any chance we could just pop in for a quick photo & she went inside & asked. Then the best news ever she came out & took us into the restaurant that was empty except for the 2 lads down the end. They were so kind & gracious & posed for photos & signed his album sleeve & truly made his Year. This is probably one of the Greatest moments in his life & his sister (my wife) & his mother were close to tears afterwards when we told them. He now has treasured photos to bring into Cope Foundation this morning & show all his jealous classmates. I know it sounds like something so simple or trivial but that was one of the most special moments for him & I was walking on air afterwards for being able to do this for him.

I’ve attached photos, he looks a little shell shocked in them, I only think it sank in when he got into the car afterwards & just started screaming. My Job now is to make sure I get 4 tickets first thing Friday morning so if there is anyway possible for ye to help me get tickets before they are sold out it would be so much appreciated. I know ye probably get requests like this on a daily basis but I can only ask & pray that we do get him tickets for the Marquee. Of course I’m willing to pay for the tickets so if there’s anyway your contacts can put 4 aside it would complete this special moment.


Many Thanks

VIRAL VIDEO OF THE DAY - MIRACLE ESCAPE FROM MOTORWAY MADNESS


The 31 year-old, from York, was travelling to work earlier this year when her Renault Clio was trapped underneath the 18-wheel lorry. Despite pulling her handbrake, tooting her horn and flashing her hazard lights the driver was still apparently unaware of the unfolding drama. Mrs Williams, who had joined the A1(M) 10 minutes from her surgery in Leeds thought she was going to die. “I kept thinking, ‘nobody knows I'm here. Nobody has seen me’. I tried everything,” she said. “I was watching other cars, thinking, ‘Help me, just help me’ – but they didn't seem to be doing very much.” The incident involving the truck driver, who has since been suspended, was captured on video and subsequently posted on YouTube. In the video, taken near Wetherby, West Yorks, a passenger shouts: “He hasn’t seen it!” Almost 50,000 people have since viewed it since it was posted last week. The footage was so dramatic many thought it was a fake. It has forced West Yorkshire Police to announce they will be re-investigating the incident. A source at the firm has said they had been “inundated” with calls since the story broke. Mrs Williams said she became aware of the tanker after having driven for a while. "We had been on the road together for a while and he was in the middle lane,” she said. “The next thing I know I’m stuck to the front of his lorry. I’ve no idea how but I didn’t deviate from my path. I just felt a knock and then I was travelling sideways. I don’t know how long for – but it felt like forever. “I was terrified the tanker was going to crash me into the central reservation, and that would be that.” The terrified driver then grabbed her mobile phone from her handbag and rang police. “I wasn't on hands-free, but I figured I wasn't really driving the car,” she told newspapers on Monday.. “I just screamed at the operator, ‘I'm going to die, I'm going to die! Can you do something?’ “She tried to calm me down but there wasn't really anything she could do at the end of the phone.” After a minute the driver spotted her and finally managed to manoeuvre the lorry to the hard shoulder. Shaken, she then rang her 32 year-old husband, Rob, who is also a vet. “You're not going to believe what's just happened,” she told him. But the driver did not think the accident was serious, even asking her if he needed to stay around. Pointing out he did, the police eventually arrived and insurance details were swapped. While she is nervous about driving on the motorway, her £6000 car survived with only a dented side and damaged tyres. “All things considered it came out of it pretty well. It’s a tough little car,” she said.

DEATH STAR WATERMELON


MIGHT NOT NEED LUKE THIS TIME...

MOST UNLIKELY PADDY'S DAY TEE EVER?

REVOLUTION CYCLE SAYS HTFU!


Dave: I am organising an fundraising night for AWARE in Blackrock Castle, Cork on the 20th of March. As part of the night we are linking up with Revolution Cycle who are 2 guys Simon Evans and Fearghal O'Nuallain began the first Irish circumnavigation of the globe by bicycle In November 2008, unsupported expedition will cover over 30,000km, passing through 30 countries and some of the highest, lowest, driest, coldest, warmest and loneliest places on earth. In doing so, they will be promoting the positive contribution that cycling can make to mental health by encouraging people to get on their bikes, and by raising funds for Aware.
Sounds good right? Well here's the sceal on all a-that & regular blog updates too... www.revolutioncycle.ie

Random blog post of late?
We´ve adopted a new motto this week, its been kindly loaned to us by the lads at SOUTH HQ who’ll no doubt be needing it back when they attempt their historic expedition in Antartica next November.
The four simple letters HTFU stand for; Harden The F@€k UP. The idea is everytime you find yourself cringing, smarting or moaning about something beyond your control you counteract the negative thought with a quick HTFU (ideally with an aussie accent) .
Its snowing outside and you´re finding it hard to get out of your sleeping bag for a day in the cold and wet?
HTFU
The prospect of putting on the same damp clothes that you´ve been wearing for the last three weeks makes you cringe?
HTFU
You can´t feel your fingers as its theres a bitter wind and your gloves are soaked?
HTFU
You miss your girlfriend and wonder why the hell you are on a bike in the Pyrenees in the winter and not sitting on the couch with a take-away and a DVD?
Yep, you guessed it; HTFU
Ultimately, HTFU is a strategy for dealing with discomfort and pain, for turning a negative thought back in on itself and diffusing the disruptive and destructive feelings before they colour the world in the wrong shade. Simon has been using it as a mantra to get past the burn on particualrly grueling climbs. Personally, I prefer ”come on te f@”k” (preferably with a deep dub accent). Really, the words don´t matter, its the sentiment behind tham thats important, and by adopting HTFU we are trying to get into the right mindset to grin and bear whatever comes our way. That senitment has lead us to forgo wearing our gloves when our fingers are numb, and not wearing our heaviest fleece when we were cold- because if we need them in comfortable Europe, if we breakout our Trumps now, then we´ve nothing left for down the road when it will be even colder/wetter/harder. At least there’s comfort in knowing that we have gloves and more clothes to fall back on, even if there is present discomfort without them. So, why HTFU, why bother Hardening The F@#k Up in the first place? Because every now and then, when you are grinding your articulated 50kg bicycle up a 3km climb, you’re wet and your ears are stinging from the cold air and rain, the ipod shuffle throws out the right song, and for 3minutes and 53 seconds you understand what its about in a way that you never would otherwise. You realise that “Times Like These” is actually a time like this and if you never HTFU’d you wouldn’t be here- you might be at home watching TV or sitting at desk somewhere dreaming of being there. And Times Like These would just be be Times Like Those, and you’d never know the bitter sweetness of trully living of trully being in the world - not dreaming of it at a desk, not watching it on telly, and not trying to ignore it with detached ignorance or drowning it in a pickled stupor.
Thats why we’ll be HTFUing with gusto.

VIRAL VIDEO OF THE DAY - REPORTER HAS A HISSY FIT...


On March 4, 2010, WVLT (Channel 8 In Knoxville, TN) Anchor/Reporter Gordon Boyd, while doing a live remote, loses it. While the news being reported was horrible and has rocked Knoxville, this incident was nothing more than a technical problem, something that happens to all reporters and anchors who work in live TV. Every newscaster has similar things happen, but if they're lucky it's never captured on video.

VIRAL VIDEO OF THE DAY - PLEASE COME BACK...AMAZING!


BUT DID HE GET HER BACK OR IS IT JUST A VIRAL AD FOR THIS NEW CHICANE TRACK HMMM?

VIRAL VIDEO OF THE DAY - OH MY GOSH!

STRONG ANT TACTICS

A picture of an ant holding a weight 100 times heavier than its own body in its jaws while hanging upside down has won a science photo competition.
Weight lifting ant wins competition. It is an image that says everything about the determination of the tiny insects. The entry, which shows an Asian weaver ant holding a 500 milligram weight in its jaws, has been named the overall winner of the inaugural Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) science photo competition.

The winning image was taken by Thomas Endlein from the University of Cambridge, who was investigating how ants and other insects' feet can stick to surfaces. He won £700 worth of photographic equipment vouchers. Asian Weaver ants (Oecophylla smaragdina) can carry weights of more than 100 times their own body weight whilst upside down on a smooth surface. To do this, they have incredibly sticky pads on their feet. However, this does not stop them from running quickly across such surfaces. Research has revealed how they cope with the conflict of sticking to a surface but not getting stuck. "Ants can change the size and shape of the pads on their feet depending on the load they are carrying," said Dr Endlein. "If they have to carry heavy loads they increase the contact area, and when they need to run they decrease it." Dr Endlein added that as well as shedding light on ants' seemingly gravity-defying feats, the research could help scientists develop better glues. "The pads on ants' feet are self-cleaning and can stick to almost any type of surface," he said. "No man-made glue or adhesive system can match this.
SO IF AN ANT WERE A HUMAN WHAT WOULD IT BE ABLE TO CARRY??

If the avaerage man weighed 13.58 stone, he would be able to carry...
1.87 elephants
or
4 hippos
or
3 and a half white rhinos
or
8 and a half renault clios
or
2 and a half mercedes benz'
or
1106 average Irish school bags
or
3650 "average" handbags (5.2lbs)

what exactly do ladies put into these "average handbags" I wonder?...

VIRAL VIDEO OF THE DAY - SKYAKING ANYONE?

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's a bloke jumping out of a plane at 13,000 feet in a kayak.

Daredevil Miles Daisher looks a bizarre sight, ‘paddling’ across the sky in a kayak.
Skyaking – the thrill-seeker’s new twist on skydiving – involves jumping out of a plane, plummeting 4,000m (13,000 feet) and then making a smooth landing on water at 50mph. Miles jumps in a short, wide kayak that gives extra stability in the air and freefalls at about 100mph, slower than the 120mph of a typical skydiver.
‘There are a lot of things that can go wrong in skyaking so you have to be prepared,’ he said. ‘I usually pull the chute quite high. With skydives, I will pull at 2,000 feet, whereas with skyaking I will pull at 5,000 feet – in case anything starts to go a little crazy. ‘That way, I have time to sort things out, get out of the boat and then pull the chute for the kayak.’ The 40-year-old, of Idaho, dreamt up skyaking while looking for ways to make his hobby even more extreme. ‘It took us almost a year before we could [take the first jump], as no one was really looking to throw a kayak out of an aeroplane,’ said Miles. ‘To begin with, we did it off a 600ft bridge and landed in Feather River, California. ‘A year later, I got permission to jump out of a plane and, since then, I have jumped out of four different aircraft, including a helicopter. I have been skyaking almost eight years now.’ The father-of-two’s antics are now to feature in a 3D film on skydiving, base jumping, wing-suit flying and, of course, skyaking. Miles has completed more base jumps – from buildings and cliffs – than anyone in the world, with 2,570. He has also done 3,000 skydives.
