This video art piece by Marco Brambilla is amazingly original. A virtual camera pans over a 1,920-by-7,500 pixel collage of 500 looping clips of found video. The result: a cyclical journey from hell to heaven and back that’s made from snippets of pop culture and recalls Hieronymus Bosch. Watch for the Stay Puft Marshmellow man.

[...] Over the course of 3 days, they will lower his body temperature, give him time to heal from his massive heart attack, and then raise it back up, eventually bringing him out of a coma when they’re confident that his heart is strong enough.

Con il Col de la Lombarde a metà gara e la lunga salita alla Bonette, passo più alto d’Europa con i suoi 2.802 metri, la tappa si presenta adatta a fughe di lunga gittata. Passano infatti solo 40 km e la gara si anima: all’inizio della salita che porta al Col de la Lombarde (21,5 km con una pendenza media del 6,9%) Stefan Schumacher parte in solitaria e arriva in cima con oltre 5′ di vantaggio su un gruppo di 27 corridori, fra i quali Damiano Cunego. Nessuna reazione da parte di Frank Schleck e degli altri big, che arrivano ad avare un ritardo di 11 minuti. Per qualche minuto maglia gialla virtuale è lo sloveno Tadej Valjavec della Ag2r. [...]

The town of Caledon may force a three-year-old boy with cerebral palsy to give up his miniature pony after a neighbour complained about the smell.
Sam Spiteri’s grandfather gave him the pony, Emily, after he was diagnosed with spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy shortly after birth. The boy can’t walk or crawl, and Emily is part of his therapy regime.
