Queen Elisabeth II has her own channel on YouTube. On her or is it Her channel I saw her first appearance on television in 1957. In this broad cast she already announced that she will adapt modern developments, better late than never. The Christmas Broadcast or 'Queen's Speech' for 2007 will appear on this channel at approximately 3pm GMT on Christmas Day.
There is a lot of old and new material. A day in the life of Charles (The Prince of Wales), Garden Parties, State Banquets. Embedding alas disabled.
Couldn't resist. An elderly going with the times, always good news. What do you think?

StupidFilter
O dear they're making a StupidFilter and will be using it on blogs. Especially on comments.
Dr Shock is afraid it will discover the stupidity of his blog articles, help. Let this be a fake project.
The solution we're creating is simple: an open-source filter software that can detect rampant stupidity in written English. This will be accomplished with weighted Bayesian analysis and some rules-based processing, similar to spam detection engines. The primary challenge inherent in our task is that stupidity is not a binary distinction, but rather a matter of degree. To this end, we're collecting a ranked corpus of stupid text, gleaned from user comments on public websites and ranked on a five-point scale.
Eventually, once the research is completed, we plan to release core engine source code for incorporation into content management systems, blogs, wikis and the like. Additionally, we plan to develop a fully implemented Firefox plugin and a Wordpress plugin.

Little appreciated outside the world of academia, there are literally thousands of .edu sites bursting with incredibly useful and interesting information and resources. Most of these sites won't pop up to the surface of the average search engine quest, and so they wait, neglected and underused...until now. Keep reading for a quick tour through the mysterious underground world of .edu.
For instance brain maps at The University of Michigan: Medical Gross Anatomy Atlas Images
