Filed under: Tag Series

In this week's Tag Series I have included the two previous runners up. The Hunter S Thompson Tag and The History Tag, both have fallen short the past two weeks of winning the grand prize...entering the Hall of Champions. This week they will duke it out with four new-comers to The Tag Series.

Remember you can vote once every 24hrs. The winner, along with being featured in the Hall of Champions, will be featured in a video heavy post next Sunday, just like Tag Series XV winner - Science.

The Archive of last weeks runner up includes 54 videos, many of which are from James Burke. It was a James Burke clip that I used in last weeks intro, and I will do the same here. This is a segment from James Burke's "The Day that Changed the World". In this segment starts off with El Cid and the Conquest of Valencia.

The Health Tag Archive

The Health Tag Archive consists of 73 bookmarks, 25 are videos and not surprisingly 13 consist of Micheal Moore. He's been in the news a lot lately as American anticipates the release of his latest documentary. The clip below is from ABC Nightline (part 1 below, part 2 here), who followed Moore around in Sacramento.


Tag #4 -
The Future Tag Archive
The Future Tag on Netscape

The Future Tag Archive consists of articles and videos about the future, some of it is science fiction but many of it consists of visions of progression and how we will deal with our ever evolving evolution. Cory Doctorow here speaks at the Stanford Singularity Summit about how we can need to progress past Copyright law, you can watch this full speech here.


Tag #5 -
The Steve Carell Tag Archive
The Steve Carell Tag on Netscape

This is actually Steve's 2nd Tag Series appearance, he lost to The Stephen Colbert Tag during the TSVII (Retired Daily Show Correspondents edition.) It seems to be customary to always involve a comedian in Tag Series,so here's Carell landing an AIDS joke.


Tag #6 -
The Afghanistan Tag Archive
The Afghanistan Tag on Netscape

Since I'm doing the Tag Series on "Newsbloggers" it feels appropriate to include a "Current event", Well The Afghan War is still kicking, here are some moving pictures of Canadians in Afghanistan.
