Broken Links

Sorry for the broken links, I'm moving the video and other media to a new server instead of my personal dropbox, I will try to have media back up as soon as I can.

UPDATE: Links should be fixed up, let me know if you spot any problems.  Also update any external links to the videos because they have moved.
