I’m highly embarrassed.

It is a UK video. Yeah, many blushes.

My Foundation Routine for Flawless Skin works, though.

Well, the video does - the jury's still out on if the technique can do anything for my T zone.

The search for a 'humane' execution
Michael Portillo, who has voted for and against the death penalty in his time as an MP, says he changed his position because of miscarriages of justice.

For BBC Two's Horizon, he set out to investigate whether one method was any more humane than another, but concluded they were all imperfect.
I doubt this is the same video, but here's "How to Kill a Human Being" (49:13), posted April 11, 2008.
