Christoph Rehage: The Longest Way
In 2007, German Christoph Rehage set off to take the “longest way” home, walking from Beijing to northwest Germany. After a year, he stopped his journey in Urumqi after walking 4646 kilometers and growing a very long beard. He put together a very creative time-lapse video documenting his journey:

Singapore Cable Car
as usual, trying to catch something for the very first/last time before it's gone.. See Singapore's cable car rides to close for S$36m overhaul... took a glass-bottomed one... not bad for $21.90 return... :) hope the new one is even better and doesn't take away the simple charm of the current one..

Singapore Lights Timelapse
really well done! this is the kind of stuff that makes people have that aching feeling of affection for the country.... frankly, i could hardly understand this year's NDP song... they should go back to the KISS principle... such as in this (by now) well-known unofficial 2009 NDP song.

Total Solar Eclipse of July 22 2009!!
this was what i caught on TV this morning LIVE~! you can hear how excited the Chinese were.. watch it.. it's worth watching till the end... :)
REALLY AMAZING!!
here are other pretty pictures i found online..
Information: A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the Sun and the Earth so that the Sun is fully or partially covered. This can only happen during a new moon, when the Sun and Moon are in conjunction as seen from the Earth. At least two and up to five solar eclipses can occur each year on Earth, with between zero and two of them being total eclipses. Total solar eclipses are nevertheless rare at any location because during each eclipse totality exists only along a narrow corridor in the relatively tiny area of the Moon's umbra. This solar eclipse is the longest total solar eclipse that will occur in the twenty-first century, and will not be surpassed in duration until June 13, 2132. Totality will last for up to 6 minutes and 39 seconds.

The Grass Mud Horses Come Avisiting
According to the web:The grass-mud horse lives in the Malegebi Desert, where it fights its mortal enemy, the river crab. The animals are fairly easy to take care of — according to an online guide to raising grass mud horses, they should flourish so long as they are not fed Sanlu Milk.

Burma VJ
Official website: http://www.burmavj.com/
What a privilege to have had a chance to see this in Singapore just two days ago!! Eyes that were closed are now open! Courage that leaves you breathless.. juxtaposed against cruelty that leaves you speechless... Nonetheless, and most unfortunately, I hear that the powers that be will definitely not be allowing a commercial release of this documentary in Singapore....:( .... yes, despite the close ties that we have with Myanmar...such as this...
"Burma VJ" (NR): An award-winning documentary offering a rare inside look at the 2007 uprising in Myanmar. The footage was shot by 30 anonymous and underground video journalists who risked their lives to document the clashes with the military and undercover police. Armed with small handy cams undercover Video Journalists in Burma keep up the flow of news from their closed country. Going beyond the occasional news clip from Burma, acclaimed director Anders Ostergaard, brings us close to the video journalists who deliver the footage. Though risking torture and life in jail, courageous young citizens of Burma live the essence of journalism as they insist on keeping up the flow of news from their closed country. The Burma VJs stop at nothing to make their reportages from the streets of Rangoon.
Read interview with director Anders Østergaard.. we actually had a video conferenced Q&A with him after the show! Quite cool..
