Video Site NOT blocked in China wanted

Problem:
I want to share videos with tons of my friends in China. What video site is not blocked in China (and offer fast speed worldwide)?

The just-ping.com result just failed YouTube.
What? Youku优酷? Dailymotion? Niconico Dougaニコニコ動画?

China is the country that has the most internet users in the world. This is one big problem.

MCM London Expo today

The London "Games, Manga, Movies" MCM Expo and Cosplay gathering. Very cool here with thousands of people. What happened there?
3 school girls came up to me and said, "Me and my friends think you are hot, can we hug you?"
"Oh." then I opened my arms and they screamed and squeezed me at the same time.
After that, I walked away and quickly checked my pocket to see if I lost anything. And everything's there.
Video of the expo will be up soon.
London, where geeks are cool. =D

Isoyaki Duck Kidney

From Aji Ichiban. Duck kidney in a vacuum bag with no preservatives.
Even though the bag has a plastic プラ logo, I think this is actually a
Hong Kong company. It sure was made in China.

Royal Dragon Karaoke

Visited the Royal Dragon restaurant for karaoke for the first time. This seems to be a popular place in central London. The karaoke box has a Chinese system with songs that are quite old. They even have a whole set of Liar's Dice 大話骰. Somehow I couldn't find a way to search by phonetics for Chinese or Japanese songs. 15 people with lots of Singapore Tiger beers cost 27 pounds per head. There was a button called "Malay Songs". I clicked the button, and there were no Malay songs.
