Carolyn Scott & Rookie Dancing To “Grease” For those who have seen this clip before be advised that this is a new and much clearer clip. It also doesn’t end as abruptly as the previous clip. Also, if you’re like me, you probably were not aware that this is an actual sport. For information on this sport see Musical Dog Sport Association. Judson Laipply, a comedian and motivational speaker from Cleveland, Ohio, has the #1 most viewed all time video on YouTube amassing over 80,000,000 views.

Here is a list of the songs and the times they appear in the clip (from Wikipedia).
Arthur C. Clarke, December 16, 1917 - March 19, 2008 Today is a very sad day for me. One of the greatest Science Fiction writers of our time, Arthur C. Clarke has died in a hospital in his adopted home of Sri Lanka at the age of 90. According to Reuters “He died of respiratory complications and heart failure doctors linked to the post-polio syndrome that had kept him wheelchair-bound for years.” Many of you may remember him as the author of ‘2001: A Space Odyssey‘, but he was also well known for writing over 100 Science Fiction novels, among them ‘Childhoods End‘, ‘Rendezvous with Rama‘ and the two sequels to 2001, 2010: Odyssey Two and ‘2061: Odyssey Three‘. He also wrote many short story collections and many non-fiction books. Not only was he a prolific Science Fiction writer, he was also a prolific Science writer. In 1945 he published a paper entitled ‘Extra-Terrestrial Relays - Can Rocket Stations Give Worldwide Radio Coverage?’ in ‘Wireless World’ magazine. In this article he described how a rocket (satellite) orbiting the earth at 22,300 miles would appear stationary to the earth below and could serve as a relay station to radio waves, providing a world-wide communications network. 25 years later this became a reality that we enjoy to this day and is the backbone for such services as GPS Satellite navigation, Global Tele-Communications, etc. Dakota doing a dance.
This 3 year old is so cute! Watch as she explains Star Wars… Welcome to Rick Gottlieb’s blog. This site will focus on random items that catch my interest. Hopefully they’ll also catch your interest. It will also be home to my photo gallery. My previous site, RDG Digital Photography has been closed, never to reopen. It really wasn’t much of a site being as the only content was the photo gallery. Everything else on the site was just there because I just wanted to see if I could create it. In other words, it was the site I used to teach myself how to build web sites. Now that I’ve learned how to build a web site, here is the one I’ll be using. And here’s hoping I can add enough content to this site to keep you coming back. |
