Fainting Goat Kittens Video | Two Young Cats With Myotonia Congenita – Rare Phenomenon

Posted: 29 Oct 2010 09:30 AM PDT

You won’t know whether to laugh, cry, feel a little freaked out, or feel pity while watching this video. If I’m honest I experienced a little of everything.

This video shows two kittens (Charlie and Spike) suffering from Myotonia Congenita, otherwise known as ‘fainting goat syndrome’. It’s a condition that is usually found in goats and rarely in cats, hence the name.

It’s a strange and rare condition which means the animals collapse upon hearing the slightest noise. Once down they enter a rigid paralysis that lasts for around a minute before getting up and carrying on as if nothing had happened.

It’s a very bizarre sight which is, let’s face it, mildly amusing. But it’s also very sad that any creature has to suffer like this, especially cute kittens who are the epitome of innocence.

Hawaii Five-O Opening Credits Video | In Honor Of James MacArthur, AKA Danno

Posted: 29 Oct 2010 02:30 AM PDT

This video shows the opening credits to the original Hawaii Five-O, complete with legendary theme song and iconic breaking wave. And it’s in honor of James MacArthur who has sadly died at the age of 72.

Hawaii Five-O originally ran from 1968 to 1980, and MacArthur appeared throughout the run except for the pilot episode and the final season, quitting because he’d become bored with the show.

MacArthur played Detective Dan Williams, also known as Danny and Danno. The latter name was used in the best-known catchphrase of the series, “Book ‘em, Danno!”

MacArthur will be most-remembered for Hawaii Five-O but also appeared in several movies including The Swiss Family Robinson and Hang ‘Em High. He died of natural causes surrounded by his family at his home in Florida.

Adorable Rescued Baby Hummingbird Video | So Tiny, So Cute

Posted: 28 Oct 2010 07:32 PM PDT

Hummingbirds are pretty darned cute. But you take a bay hummingbird, and his adorability measures off the charts.

This lucky lad came across an orphaned baby hummingbird and nursed him back to health. Clearly they formed a deep bond as the birdy drank from an eyedropper and settled on his hand.

The boy doesn’t have the skills of the baby bird's mama, but his gentle encouragement sees this pint-sized hummer flying like a pro in no time.

This video beautifully captures the relationship between the boy and bird and sets it to an easy Jack Johnson soundtrack. Does it get any better than this?

Jon Stewart on The Daily Show proves he is moving up in the world by holding a special one on one interview with United States President Barack Obama.

As much as I wonder if this is like Stewart meeting his hero, I have to admire the way he takes the interview questions.

He is not nearly as hard hitting as he could be, certainly, but questions have to be approved and all that. Even so, he handles himself well – as does Obama.

Celebrity stylists Phillip Bloch, Jessica Paster, and George Kotsiopoulos give you a few tips for your easy, at home DIY Halloween costumes.

While you may not care to go to your Halloween party as one of Katy Perry’s California Girls or as one of the Kardashian sisters, these stylists will make you feel a lot less stressed about making your own costume.

Ah, Halloween. It isn’t my favorite holiday, but that’s probably because I left the US before I got to be old enough for the really fun, adult parties and costumes.

Shops here are trying to get Halloween to catch on because it’s such an absolute cash cow, but it’s still not very popular…

Maybe next year.
