You may have already seen this video, it is getting played all over the news and web. Take the 38 seconds to watch it!

What is most interesting to me about the video is it seems like she smiles a lot as a baby/toddler but as she gets older she smiles less often.

I first watched the video and admired how the professor handled the situation.  However, after watching the video I read some of the comments and discovered some things I hadn’t thought about.  Why would a college professor (or any teacher) use a standard test?  I had no idea professors (and students) could buy standard tests online, did you?  I tried Googling it after watching the video and was surprised to see how many results there were.  Why wouldn’t a professor with an advanced degree create his/her own test?  I could understand an elementary teacher but not a standard test for a college course.  The professor seems to put all the blame on the students but shouldn’t the university also focus on why the professor didn’t create his own test?

If there is a 700 question standard test available and word gets out the professor uses standard questions for his 50 question test, what would you expect?  Seems to me the professor was taking shortcuts which is where things went wrong.  Note: over 200 students admitted “cheating” after the lecture.  Were the students “cheating” or were they simply doing what the professor was doing (taking a shortcut)?  Were the students who studied standard test questions doing the right thing?  Was the professor doing the right by using a standard test?  Does anyone else have more information or want to weigh in on this?

During World War II, Ralph Dial met the prettiest girl he had ever seen – but forgot her name. Sixty years later, he finally remembered it – and a stroke of luck led him to her. Steve Hartman reports.

Walter Breuning, the oldest living man in the world, answers questions about his life on his 114th birthday.

If you need a good laugh, this certainly worked for me.  Who does this stuff?  I love the part of the video where he stops beating himself over the head and says “hmmmm”.  By the way the Best YouTube comment on this video: “It’s 6 AM and I just watched a man bludgeon himself with a piece of plywood. Thanks Internet!”
