		<description><![CDATA[Portland Police Traffic Officer Mark James was on the prowl when he happened to spot a speeding offender going 52 mph in a 35 mph zone. The video, which shows James&#8217; view from his “dash cam,” shows his car taking off in hot pursuit to nab the vehicle — only to be conveniently interrupted by a family of ducks wandering aimlessly in the middle of the street. In a gallant display of kindness, James stopped the car to escort the small family of ducks safely to the side of the street.

		<description><![CDATA[Speaking of trouble in paradise: a troop of baboons recently climbed through an open window sill in Betty’s Bay, South Africa, and began ransacking a vacation home while the owners were away. Howard Fyvie and Kyle Peters happened to be nearby when they decided to take matters into their own hands and attempt to shoo away the group of party animals, who were defecating and causing general chaos. (MORE: Baboon Study Shows Why High Social Status Boosts Health) The video, which has been going viral ever since it was uploaded to YouTube early last week, shows Fyvie and Peters participating in a Cops-style showdown with the baboons, armed with nothing but brooms and mops. “You better recognize… get out of here! Out the door!” the two shout, as they corner a last baboon sitting in the bathroom. Despite Fyvie’s and Peters’ courage, you’re probably better off letting an expert approach a wild baboon cause they can be pretty dangerous. Betty’s Bay is an established vacation spot just outside of Cape Town, South Africa. National Geographic actually points out that in recent years, human development has caused many baboons to lose their natural habitats in recent years, causing animals break-ins to steadily increase.

		<description><![CDATA[Get ready to watch the most romantic move ever. Photographer Chris Geiger was asked to record one couple&#8217;s marriage proposal in San Francisco’s Alamo Square park on April 7, and a video of it has started to go viral. Jason Muscat&#8217;s girlfriend Christina thought she was posing for photo or video shoot, but little did she know that her future fiancée had fastened the engagement ring — plus two small cameras — on top of a small remote-controlled helicopter. The device fluttered towards the couple and landed nearby — at which point Muscat took the ring, got down on one knee, and popped the question. Go ahead, say it: &#8220;aww.&#8221; MORE: The 5 Most Elaborate Marriage Proposals Ever VIDEO: Only on YouTube: Valentine&#8217;s Day Wedding Proposals<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=newsfeed.time.com&#038;blog=12783068&#038;post=205731&#038;subd=timenewsfeed&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Comedy fans rejoice.  YouTube is hosting its first-ever comedy week in May, and you can expect some big names to take part in the largest open mic on the planet. Google’s video-sharing website announced on Thursday that the seven-day cyber extravaganza, YouTube Comedy Week, will run from May 19 to May 25 and feature some of the best comedy across its expansive video platform, the Associated Press reported. The mega-serving of standup will include a collection of live events, video premieres and collaborations, according to Mashable. To guarantee laughs, some of comedy’s biggest names are submitting contributions,  including Sarah Silverman, Rainn Wilson, Michael Cera, Vince Vaughn and Seth Rogen.  Former Saturday Night Live cast member Andy Samberg’s comedy troupe The Lonely Island also plans to debut new videos, according to the AP. (WATCH: YouTube Announces It Will Shut Down) And in homage to the event&#8217;s digital roots, web celebrities are also expected to contribute &#8212; the Gregory Brothers (the “Auto-Tune the News” crew) and the team behind Epic Rap Battles of History are expected to join in, Wired reported.  And popular comedy destinations with YouTube channels are also participating, such as The Onion, Funny or Die, Nerdist and CollegeHumor. The video-sharing website’s latest foray with comedy is apparently just the start of a new strategy. The site is hoping to congregate its diverse group of stars with varied talents – from Hollywood professionals to Internet upstarts – to present a more unified experience for users, the AP said.  The company spent millions of dollars developing original programming, which it hopes the theme weeks will help to highlight, according to Wired. “We’re hoping to do this in a pretty regular rhythm,” YouTube’s head of marketing Danielle Tiedt told the AP.  “You&#8217;ll see several of these coming from us, for sure, as we highlight really big areas that we think are amazing areas of strength for YouTube.” YouTube’s first-ever comedy week will kick-off with a live, all-star variety show from Los Angeles’ Culver Studios, and will feature stand-up, sketches and musical performances. <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=newsfeed.time.com&#038;blog=12783068&#038;post=205743&#038;subd=timenewsfeed&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;How many indie rock fans does it take to screw in a light bulb? It&#8217;s a really obscure number that you&#8217;ve probably never heard of.&#8221; That old hipster-skewering joke is funny because it&#8217;s true: for some indie rock fans, no band can be too little-known. So when Jimmy Kimmel sent a reporter armed with a microphone and a camera to grill music fans about some of the acts at Coachella, you can bet that they had heard of all of them – even though the writers at Jimmy Kimmel Live! had made them up. The crew from Kimmel&#8217;s popular &#8220;Lie Witness News&#8221; segment went to the Coachella Music and Arts Festival outside Los Angeles to talk to die-hard music fans about a few bands that are &#8220;so obscure that they don&#8217;t exist.&#8221; Apparently, that&#8217;s not a problem for these fans, who were enthusiastic about the fictional bands the Obesity Epidemic and Regis &#38; the Philbins. As for Dr. Shlohmo &#38; the G.I. Clinic? &#8220;They&#8217;re always amazing,&#8221; said one attendee. But you probably knew that already.

		<description><![CDATA[In this crazy video, 30 Canadian skiers hit the slopes at Mont St. Sauveur in Quebec to attempt a backflip—hand in hand—last Sunday. Don’t try this at home, folks. Led by freestyle-skiing world champion Mikaël Kingsbury, the group managed to convince the slope to close off a part of the mountain so that they could practice and hold the event. Jerome Berneche, a 23-year-old skier, told local news station Sky News Kingsbury that the skiing champion had drummed up the idea about a month or two ago to put together a record-breaking backflip. (VIDEO: How They Train: Aerial Skiing) Kingsbury also managed to convince current and former members of the Canadian freestyle team to participate, United Press International reports. These are clearly not amateurs. According to Berneche, the group trained for 2 hours alone or in small groups before attempting the huge backflip together. It didn’t work the first time. &#8220;On the first try, the line broke, because we had problems with the angle of the slope that was steeper on one side than the other, so some people did not have the same speed.&#8221; (MORE: Musician Plays “Ride of the Valkyries” Skiing Downhill) On the second try, however, they all managed to pull it off. “We were pretty stoked, I don&#8217;t think anybody really expected it to work that well.&#8221;<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=newsfeed.time.com&#038;blog=12783068&#038;post=204702&#038;subd=timenewsfeed&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Between the Boston Marathon Bombing and the ricin scares, the sinkhole in Chicago and the massive fertilizer plant explosion in Texas, this is a week NewsFeed is glad is finally over. But there&#8217;s always a little light amid the darkness; here are ten of our favorite bright spots in a week that sorely needed them. 1. A Woman Was Reunited with Her Siblings, 15 Years Later Claire Cordier / Dorling Kindersley / Getty Images As a teenager, Meredith Richardson had promised her dying grandmother that she would look after her young brother and sister — only to see them be put into foster care and disappear behind a wall of bureaucracy and red tape. Now, after a 15-year struggle with the Los Angeles County foster care system, Meredith, Marilyn and Aubrey have finally been reunited.  &#8221;This whole experience has made me want so much more for myself and my future. Unconditional love — there&#8217;s nothing like it,&#8221; Marilyn told the Los Angeles Times in a heartwarming story published Wednesday.  &#8221;I want to live up to my new family&#8217;s picture of me and be a good sister for them and to be happy they found me.&#8221; 2. Patton Oswalt Made Us Want to See the New Star Wars Movie Actor and comedian Patton Oswalt pretty much won this week: his inspiring Facebook post in response to the Boston Marathon bombing went viral, he announced he was hosting the 17th Annual Webby Awards and he played the Penguin in a hilarious College Humor Batman spoof. But possibly most impressive was this 8-minute, off-the-cuff pitch for the plot of the new Star Wars film, filmed for his guest spot on this week&#8217;s Parks and Recreation, that scaled heights of geekdom that even J.J. Abrams might fear to tread. 3. George H.W. Bush Posed for This Photo AP As the 41st President of the United States, George H.W. Bush has had his share of formal duties. But it&#8217;s probably the first time an 88-year-old former commander-in-chief introduced the newest members of the Houston Texans&#8217; cheerleading squad. Bush gave a rose to each of the women in a special<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=newsfeed.time.com&#038;blog=12783068&#038;post=204743&#038;subd=timenewsfeed&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Amid tightened security, the Boston Bruins took to the ice on Wednesday night in the city’s first major sporting event since the bombings at the Boston Marathon. Before the opening faceoff between the Bruins and the Buffalo Sabres, the 17,565 fans at the TD Garden delivered a moving rendition of the “Star-Spangled Banner.” (MORE: Marathon Bombings: Our Favorite Tributes to Boston) With a blue and yellow ribbon projected on the stadium ice and the Boston Fire Department Honor Guard present to honor the first responders at Monday’s event, singer Rene Rancourt began the national anthem, the Huffington Post reported. But soon after, as the crowd’s singing resonated throughout the stands, Rancourt lowered his microphone.  The fans carried on in a sing-along, in what was an emotional moment for the city still coping from recent tragedy.  As the anthem came to a close, the crowd erupted into cheers and a thunderous chant of “U.S.A.” MORE: 6 Examples of Awesome People Helping Boston Marathon Victims<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=newsfeed.time.com&#038;blog=12783068&#038;post=204588&#038;subd=timenewsfeed&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dove is at it again. On Monday, the soap brand whose “Real Beauty” campaign has won praise for featuring women of all shapes and sizes posted a new ad on YouTube that teaches an important lesson about how women view themselves compared to how others see them. The short documentary features Gil Zamora, a former forensic sketch artist for the San Jose Police Department, who with his back to his subjects draws portraits of a series of women based only on their own descriptions of how they think they look.  He prompted them to detail everything: hair length, facial structure, and their most prominent features. (WATCH: Nivea Punks ‘Wanted’ Travelers for Stressed Out Ad) Each woman was asked before the social experiment to spend some one-on-one time with one of the other participants.  The forensic artist then drew portraits of the same woman according to the stranger’s description, Ad Age reports. At the end of the video, the artist reveals the two sketches – one from the participant’s description, the other from their partner.  As Mashable points out, the differences are remarkable. Dove included this description with the video: Women are their own worst beauty critics. Only 4% of women around the world consider themselves beautiful. At Dove, we are committed to creating a world where beauty is a source of confidence, not anxiety. So, we decided to conduct a compelling social experiment that explores how women view their own beauty in contrast to what others see. The video has already had more than 1.6 million views on YouTube.

		<description><![CDATA[Are you just a tad immature? Kmart&#8217;s latest commercial will have you shipping your pants with laughter. Kmart will send items directly to shoppers&#8217; homes for free if they can&#8217;t find what they need in the store. In other words: shoppers can very easily ship their pants, ship their drawers or even ship their beds. (See what they did there?) (MORE: Mass Appeal: Adam Levine and Nicki Minaj to Launch Kmart Collections) In the past few days, the buzzy video has racked up millions of views on YouTube and thousands of likes and shares on Facebook. Though it seems to be getting plenty of positive reactions for its funny, lighthearted approach, the spot has also faced some disapproval. Since it&#8217;s just a little bit juvenile and inappropriate. Either way, the ad has stirred up plenty of chatter across the web, drawing lots of attention to the Kmart name &#8212; one that market analysts say has lost its relevance over the years. Realistically, though, it doesn&#8217;t seem likely that this newfound viral fame will be enough to significantly boost sales and lift Kmart out of its doldrums. For now, let&#8217;s just take a moment to appreciate this silly ad. You might not really ship your pants, but you&#8217;ll at least crack a smile.

		<description><![CDATA[Most children&#8217;s books are innocent, whimsical affairs, but for Chicagoan Molly Lipsitz, a reading children&#8217;s book designed by her boyfriend turned out to be a life-changing experience. (MORE: Oh, Good: Face-Sized Spiders Discovered in Sri Lanka) Jason Methner wanted to propose to girlfriend Lipsitz in a way that was &#8220;creative,&#8221; &#8220;dramatic&#8221; and  &#8221;a surprise,&#8221; reports TODAY.com. It seems he hit the trifecta: a children&#8217;s book inspired by bunnies &#8212; Lipsitz&#8217;s favorite animal &#8212; whose tale of a tortoise and hare unfurled like their relationship, concluding with a fireworks finale marriage proposal. Methner penned the story himself in secret, then enlisted the aid of animator and friend Yoni Limor to help turn the story into an illustrated book. (No pressure.) According to Limor, &#8220;It was a little daunting being asked to draw something that would have such a sentimental value on what would be one of the most important days of their lives&#8230;&#8221; When the book was finished, Methner devised a clever plan to pop the question in a perfectly unassuming location: the Harold Washington Library in downtown Chicago. After clearing the plan with library officials &#8212; they agreed on condition Methner allow them to post photos of the event to their Facebook page &#8212; Methner told Lipsitz they needed to drop by the library to view a friend&#8217;s book. After bringing Lipsitz to the library&#8217;s children&#8217;s section, Methner pulled the book from one of the shelves, pretending he&#8217;d just noticed it. Lipsitz began reading it, and by the third page, had figured out something was up. At the end of the story, the tortoise proposes to the hare, and that&#8217;s when Methner dropped to one knee and pulled out an engagement ring (just as photographer and friend Aparna Paul Jain popped out to immortalize the moment). Fortunately, Lipsitz said yes. &#8220;The book is a parable of our relationship,&#8221; Lipsitz told TODAY.com. &#8220;From when we met, a bit about our lives, and the things we did together. In the book he proposed to me, and then he proposed for real.&#8221; MORE: Want To Look More Popular?

		<description><![CDATA[On Sunday morning YouTube released a video titled “YouTube’s ready to select a winner.”  In it, employees from the video sharing site explain that, starting at midnight on March 31st, the site will go offline.  YouTube staff will then have the unenviable task of selecting the best-ever YouTube video, with a winner announced when the site went back up—in 2023. “We are so close to the end,” Tom Liston, communications director at YouTube, explains in the video. “Tonight at midnight, YouTube.com will no longer be accepting entries.  After eight amazing years, it&#8217;s finally time to review everything that has been uploaded to our site and begin the process of selecting a winner.” (MORE: The Future of YouTube: More Channels in More Places) The video, reportedly made in collaboration with the Onion, features cameos from YouTube celebrities like Antoine Dodson, who rose to Internet fame for the viral &#8220;Bed Intruder” Auto-Tune video, Matt Harding of “Where the Hell is Matt? 2012,” and Charlie and his brother from “Charlie Bit My Finger.”  Each of them share their dream of winning the title of best-ever YouTube video. Luckily for YouTube fans, it&#8217;s all a big April Fool&#8217;s Day joke.

		<description><![CDATA[A Kansas teenager recovering from having wisdom teeth removed has become an Internet sensation after her boyfriend posted a film of her tearful ramblings on YouTube. Abbie Kritz was still feeling distinctly woozy while being driven back home from the dentist and uses the journey to apologize profusely to her extracted teeth for “murdering” them. Her mom and boyfriend attempt to consol her despite their obvious amusement. (WATCH: Drunk Guy Sings Flawless Rendition of ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ in Back of Cop Car) “They were just trying to help me chew and I didn&#8217;t accept them,” she mournfully explains. “I could have accepted them … I did it against my own will, I would have kept you.” Media outlets from across the country have now picked up the clip and Kritz is scheduled to appear on ABC News’ Good Morning America on Friday morning. Despite Kritz&#8217;s obvious embarrassment, there were apparently no permanent side effects from her ordeal once the anesthetic finally wore off. “No it was actually really great! I don&#8217;t remember anything after the procedure [and] I was fine the next day,” she wrote on her Twitter page.

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, the Human Rights Campaign&#8217;s pink-and-red equal sign went viral — becoming the online symbol of the gay marriage cases before the Supreme Court this week. But, this being the Internet, nothing gold (or in this case, red) can stay &#8212; since the image is everywhere already, cue the multitude of parodies. Some have made us roll our eyes, others inspired chuckles, and the rare one made us seriously guffaw. We&#8217;ve culled some of our favorites from Facebook and meme-generators like KnowYourMeme and WeKnowMemes.  MORE: What Is the Red Equal Sign All Over Facebook and Twitter? MORE: An Interactive Timeline of the Fight for Gay Rights No matter which way this case goes, both sides will be drinking — and Bud Light knows that. (Facebook) Facebook As man&#8217;s best friend, dogs deserve similar equality. Here, a canine creation shared by Garrett Rosso, formerly an art director for TIME. (Facebook) Facebook Here, TIME Photo Editor Tanner Curtis seamlessly blends two memes – the equal sign and the photo of a Goosebumps-loving, pigtailed, hopelessly nerdy girl that has been going viral ever since it was posted on Reddit in March 2012. Tanner Curtis Speaking of characters, you&#8217;ll like this Peanuts parody — featuring Peppermint Patty and her best friend Marcie — shared by &#8220;Being Liberal,&#8221; a Facebook group for &#8220;liberally-minded people&#8221; that boasts more than 620,000 fans. (Facebook) Just note: Sesame Street&#8216;s Bert and Ernie are not going to get married anytime soon, the show has confirmed. (WeKnowMemes): WeKnowMemes If any fictional character is as wise as the Supreme Court justices, it would be Yoda, the fictional sage who trains Jedis in Star Wars. George Takei, Star Trek actor, is posting sci-fi-themed spoofs on his Facebook page. (Facebook) Facebook Deadheads: the Grateful Dead&#8217;s iconic dancing bears are getting into the act. TIME Senior Editor Jeffrey Kluger shared this picture. (Facebook) This landmark Supreme Court case calls for parodies using&#8230;landmarks — such as the Seattle Space Needle.

		<description><![CDATA[After several attempts to revive their glory days as one of the hottest boy bands, the Backstreet Boys are back, alright?  And now they&#8217;ve done their own riff on the ‘Harlem Shake’, the viral dance craze set to a techno track by DJ Baauer that has taken YouTube by storm in the last month. The 90s boy band recently released their video rendition of the Harlem Shake, which features a bunny costume, Nick Carter in his underwear, AJ McLean adorning a Spiderman costume, and even a tutu, Entertainment Weekly reported. (MORE: ‘Harlem Shake’ Controversy: Artists Behind Unlicensed Samples Seek Money from Hit Song) All five founding members – BSB has been a quartet since 2006 when Kevin Richardson left to start a family – added some group choreography, which Mashable suggested was to prove that the Boys still have it.  Although, maybe the video is preparation for their fifth comeback tour since they released their album “Never Gone” – but who’s keeping track, right? The Backstreet Boys are celebrating their 20th anniversary with a new album available April 20th and a “Fan Celebration” in Hollywood, Calif.  Two days later, they’ll be inducted into the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and at the end of May, BSB will kick off another world tour.

		<description><![CDATA[As any four-year-old can tell you, farts are hilarious. Which is why we&#8217;re not sure whether this Canadian anti-smoking campaign is adequately conveying the seriousness of the problem it&#8217;s trying to tackle in the above ad spot, which equates &#8220;social smoking&#8221; with &#8220;social farting.&#8221; But boy, is it funny. (Warning: Video contains gross farting sounds and is probably NSFW, especially if you work with a lot of four-year-olds.) The public service announcement from the Ontario Ministry of Health is part of its “Quit the Denial” campaign, which aims to get people to give up cigarettes, according to Adweek. The TV spot has one young woman rejecting the idea that she’s a “farter,” but instead calls herself a “social farter,&#8221; saying, “Just because I fart at parties now and then, it doesn’t make me a farter.” (MORE: Colorful Way Tobacco Industry May Be Skirting Labeling Rules) The young woman is, of course, in denial — like people who claim to be “social smokers” and insist they’re not addicted, Adweek explains. The Quit the Denial campaign is from advertising agency BBDO’s Toronto offices and directed by the Perlorian Brothers – the same Canadian duo who worked on Volkswagen’s Super Bowl Game Day teaser “Get Happy.” Although the campaign’s TV spots are a change from the typical anti-smoking ads – there’s another one called the “social nibbler” – critics have said the videos don’t convey the right message, the Daily Mail reported.  Jezebel commented that the ad is “clever,” but asked, “Doesn’t it kinda make social farting look kinda…cool?  And Adweek, in a fairly epic attempt at flatulence-related punnery, wondered if the spot was “too light and insubstantial, lacking substance—like, oh I don&#8217;t know, a passing wind, perhaps?” (MORE: Bloomberg Cigarette Plan Gets Praise, Criticism<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=newsfeed.time.com&#038;blog=12783068&#038;post=200384&#038;subd=timenewsfeed&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nobody likes getting picked on at work, and most people will think this idiot got exactly what he deserved for bothering a street performer in Surfer’s Paradise, Australia. Love them or hate them, those guys who eke out a few coins from passing tourists by dressing up in metallic paint are just trying to earn an honest buck. After all, those costumes are swelteringly hot, you’re on your feet all day and the preparation takes hours. WATCH: X-Factor Meltdown Leads to On-Air Punch-Up So when a passing class clown desperate to be the center of attention starts messing with the act — re-adjusting his hat, rubbing makeup off his face and, crime of all crimes, administering a ‘wet willy’ — even the most saintly of dispositions must have a breaking point. The clip has received almost 7 million YouTube hits plus a litany of comments such as &#8220;should have punched him harder!&#8221; It seems the jury of public opinion is unlikely to convict.

		<description><![CDATA[As you hunker down with a Guinness — or a green milkshake — to celebrate the patron saint of Ireland who converted pagans to Christianity, take note of these lesser-known St. Patrick&#8217;s Day festivities nationwide. Who knows: maybe you&#8217;ll spend next March 17 in St. Patrick, Missouri. Meet Some Irish People. On Tuesday, March 19, President Barack Obama will (belatedly) exchange shamrocks with Irish Prime Minister Enda Kenny, a tradition that dates back to 1952 when President Harry S. Truman received a box of shamrocks from Irish ambassador John Joseph Hearne. Obama and Kenny also will attend a St. Patrick&#8217;s Day lunch at the U.S. Capitol. That same day, the President will meet with Northern Ireland&#8217;s First Minister Peter Robinson and Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness to &#8220;discuss their progress toward meeting their shared commitment to a peaceful and prosperous future for the people of Northern Ireland.&#8221; Drink Something Green. The Dubliner, an Irish Pub in Washington D.C. that President Obama patronized last year on St. Patrick&#8217;s Day, told Eater that it served more than 500 green Jello shots that day. Let Your Flag Fly. An Irish pub in Florida called Culhane&#8217;s will finally be able to fly the Irish flag, now that the community of Atlantic Beach, Fla. has suspended a city ordinance that prohibits the flying of foreign flags. Try Something Different. In the event you&#8217;re craving Italian instead of the traditional corned beef and cabbage, Chicago&#8217;s Frasca Pizzeria &#38; Wine Bar — which uses beer in its pizza crusts — is making its pies with Guinness just for St. Patrick&#8217;s Day. Meanwhile, the potato-themed pizza at Francoluigi’s in Philadelphia is chock full of French Fries, ranch dressing, broccoli, bacon, Cheez Whiz, American cheese, mozzarella cheese, and parsley. Have Beer with Dessert. Also on the food front, Puddin&#8217;, a dessert shop in New York City, boasts a beer cream puff — Irish soda bread on the outside, pudding made with Brooklyn Lager&#8217;s Dry Irish Stout on the inside. Turn Green with Envy. While the Windy City may dye the Chicago River green, Sin City is trying its own twist on the holiday. Workers on the Vegas Strip will<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=newsfeed.time.com&#038;blog=12783068&#038;post=199767&#038;subd=timenewsfeed&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So it’s not exactly news, but one thing’s for sure: it’s hard to resist baby seals. Especially when they’re jumping on top of surfboards, begging for your attention. To make this video, which has seen more than 300,000 views on YouTube, user HydRemote had the ingenious idea of setting up a remote-controlled camera on an old windsurfing board in Puget Sound, Wash., and letting a group of newly weaned seals swim right on up. The video went online on March 8 and got posted on Reddit on Monday. As to how HydRemote did it, it wasn’t that hard. He explains on the YouTube page: I mounted a remote GoPro camera and these posers seemed to know exactly where to perform! It had rained that morning and the slip n&#8217; slide ensued. These condensed clips occured over a period of about 30 minutes.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=newsfeed.time.com&#038;blog=12783068&#038;post=199394&#038;subd=timenewsfeed&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
