For all you first timers who may not know how to view the video clips/slide shows on this site
To view the clip you go to the arrowhead under the clip's screen and click on it. The video will then say it is buffering. When it has loaded the video it will play for you automatically. When the video stops you can click on the arrowhead to view it again if you wish. Loading times will vary but it shouldn't take more than a few moments.
