B Unique Crew is an Indian dance crew with three dancers and one genuine contortionist. They achieved notoriety with this horror dance on the Indian TV show Hunarbaaz: Desh ki shaan (Pride of the Country) a few years ago. They are using modified traditional dance moves to illustrate a classic story that was retold in the horror comedy movie Bhool Bhulaiyaa.
The judges were properly horrified, but the crew didn't win. Since then, B Unique Crew has appeared on various version of the Got Talent franchise in different countries. See more of their dance routines at YouTube. If you dare. (via Digg)

This Saturday night is the annual White House Correspondents' Dinner. It's always a hoot to see, but rarely stays with you except for that one in 2011 when Seth Meyers roasted Donald Trump and then Obama did as well over his racist "birther" conspiracy theory, lighting a conflagration we are still trying to put out. But back in 1997, the organizers were at their wits' end when Rosie O'Donnell pulled out of hosting at the last minute, and then Dennis Miller turned down the offer, so lesser-known comedian Jon Stewart stepped in when he was needed. The humor is good, but very topical, and won't make much sense unless you remember 1997 and the scandals that were in the news at the time. But for those who do, you can see how this speech put Stewart in the political map. He later got the hosting job at The Daily Show. (via Cracked)

"I was human once" begins a soliloquy from a successful alchemist who developed an elixir that gave him immortality and magical powers. What would you sacrifice for immortality and magical powers? We find that the price was quite high, and he wouldn't do it again if he had a choice. You can't appreciate the value of time when it's unlimited, and all the power in the world doesn't help you in your relationships with other people if you are no longer human.

James Parris brings us a modern parody of 1950s instructional films. This takes me back to the days of teaching my little kids to use a sidewalk, along with traffic safety. Those lessons went into overdrive when I took them to New York City. The things we consider common sense are not common when you're young and never had to think about them before. Stay to the right. Don't walk three abreast in the city. Do not block an escalator. And whatever you do, don't just stand in a doorway! (via Neatorama)
