What an insane build of a machine out of Lego!!! Man, I need to go re-visit my stash of Lego. And maybe nick some from Matthew too. 🙂

The Migration of Hermit Crabs
This video has been posted all over the Web, but I thought it is still pretty impressive camera work by Steve Simonsen.
Have only seen a few hermit crabs in a tank at the pet store. This is pretty overwhelming seeing thousands upon thousands of the hermit crabs scuttling towards land. 🙂
And did you know this interesting fact?
Several hermit crab species, both terrestrial and marine, use “vacancy chains” to find new shells: when a new, bigger shell becomes available, hermit crabs gather around it and form a kind of queue from largest to smallest. When the largest crab moves into the new shell, the second biggest crab moves into the newly vacated shell, thereby making its previous shell available to the third crab, and so on. (from Wikipedia: Hermit crab)
Music Video: While I’m Waiting by John Waller
Watched a Christian movie, [Fireproof](http://www.fireproofthemovie.com/), this past week during our home group. Really interesting movie about marriage and the importance of God in the centre of it all. The movie has extra significance because of what’s happening to some families around me.
Even if your marriage is going strong, the movie provides a gentle reminder that nothing should be taken for granted.

Freshest Sushi on Offer
I love sushi! And it’s quite cheap to make your own sushi in Adelaide as really fresh salmon and tuna are readily available and not that expensive. But I guess this is the really extreme version of fresh sushi.
I don’t think I’ll be able to stomach it!!

“A Little White-Haired Man” on George St, Sydney, Australia
Heard this over the weekend at church camp and this testimony about Mr Genor, a little white-haired man handing out tracts on George St in Sydney, Australia, has moved me to tears … even on listening to it a few more times. Hope you’ll be inspired by it too!!
If you are non-Christian, then I hope this video will inspire you to go seek out a Christian friend to find out more.
If anyone who’s staying/visiting in Adelaide is interested, you are more than welcome to come worship with us at [Unley Christian Chapel](1).

Extremely nice video about Christoph Rehage’s one year walking trip across China. Good use of both still photography and video in the clip.
Enjoy!

Viral Wedding Entrance, parody-style
In a previous post, I highlighted the ‘[Super Cool Wedding Entrance](http://www.isaakkwok.com/super-cool-wedding-entrance/)’ by JK. Since then, the video gone viral and has been seen 12 million times on YouTube.
Now, there’s a parody by [CollegeHumor.com](http://www.collegehumor.com/) of them in a divorce court. 🙂

It’s all in good fun! Here’s wishing JK and everlasting & happy marriage.
Funny Advertisement featuring Jackie Chan
An ‘interesting’ advertisement for [Kaspersky](http://www.kaspersky.com/), the anti-virus company, that features [Jackie Chan](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackie_Chan/) kicking computer viruses on a Segway.
The advertisement is a little weird with Jackie Chan speaking in Mandarin and Eugene Kaspersky (the founder) replying in Russian-accented English.
Anyway, it’s good to see Jackie Chan strutting his kungfu moves, even if it’s in a *bizarre* advert.

Super Cool Wedding Entrance
[JK Wedding Entrance Dance](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-94JhLEiN0)from [TheKheinz](http://www.youtube.com/user/TheKheinz) on [Youtube](http://www.youtube.com/)
It’s quite a cool entrance. I guess the church that the wedding was held must be quite open with the music used and dancing.
Hmmm … as for me, I don’t think we’ll have such an entrance. Not even for our wedding dinner. But I’ve attended a few wedding dinners where the couple danced in on the 2nd entrance into the ballroom.
How about your wedding entrances?
