The Haiti Earthquake
   

On 12th January 2010, a massive eathquake struck the island nation of Haiti.

Located in the caribbean, the number of casualties was heartbreaking (possibly reaching 200,000) and thoughts and prayers go out to the survivors and relatives of the bereaved.

The country's infrastructure was also destroyed and up to 3 million people remain affected.

The Disaster Emergency Committee (DEC) has coordinated all the UK's biggest charities to raise funds to help the thousands of people who need assistance.

Please give anything to help out.

Staying positive...!
   

Life often throws us unexpected curves. Question is, how do we deal with them?

Do we let them defeat us and leave us drowning in negativity? No! We tackle them head on. With a smile and a wink.

Knowing that the problem will be solved and something new will have been learned.

Staying positive is the best frame of mind to be in and stay in, click here to read about Rich Dad, Poor Dad!

Something to aim and strive for.

 

A Titanic Clash...!
   

From the heights of Mount Olympus!!

 

The classic movie Clash of the Titans is being remade into a brand new special effects extravaganza with no expense spared.

The official website has all you need to know to get excited for the new movie, just click here!

From the looks of the trailer it just may surpass the original movie which I loved.

Based on the ancient Greek Myths, it's full of supernatural wonder and drama between gods and men.

Adventure lives!

Hello Wall-E, Hello Dolly...!
   

I watched Wall-E for the first time recently. An amazing film from Disney/Pixar.  

Told in CGI it paints a picture of life in the future after the planet has been overrun with rubbish (garbage).

I thought it was quite ingenious the way how painstaking research made the story so much more believeable with a lot of heart.

A running theme tune was taken from the musical Hello Dolly with a song called Put on your Sunday clothes. The actual video of the song was woven into the narrative and I show it to you here.

I've grown to love the song as it encapulates a joy and an innocence that really strikes a chord.

Here it is for you to listen to and enjoy.

 

 

 

The Google Story...!
   

Got a link to this from Twitter which details the history of Google.  

They are one of the most innovative and inspirational companies out there due to the people behind it.

I love how they have changed the digital landscape of the world in such a short time with inventions such as Google search. All the while helping people and enjoying life.

This video is done in an animation style so sit back and enjoy.

Swinging the Wii Goodness...!!!
   

Watching my girlfriend play the Nintendo Wii has been quite therapeutic.

De Blob is a sweet painting game where you control a character and paint the city in vibrant colours to defeat the boring greyness. Intrigued yet? It really is that cool, with a well researched background story to match.

The Wii features motion sensor remote controls which you move around to direct the characters. This makes it a thoroughly interactive game and fun to watch and play. I discovered it for the first time not too long ago.

My personal favourite game on the console is Wii Tennis which is part of a suite of games. You have to swing the control in the same way as a tennis racquet to get the ball over the net so, as you can imagine, it's a great laugh and I really get into it.

Cool Comic Book Artwork...!!!
   

I love this rendition of the X-Men. A fine attention to detail. Art by Phil Jiminez. All characters © & ™ Marvel Comics.

 

 

A Sketch in Time...
   

This is a sketch I did a little while back of artist Cammi Peterson. I quite like live drawings as I have a eye for distance and basic detail.

Enjoy.

 

 

TV Heaven...!!!
   

I've been enjoying some quality TV shows recently. Here in Arizona, USA, I'm seeing some of the most creative dramas for a long while.

For example, the innovative police dramas such as CSI: Las Vegas, CSI: New York and CSI: Miami. These are all set in the forensics area but the stories built around them are astounding. The style of each show reflects the character of the cities, fast paced and laid back in respect of the latter two.

Also worthy of mentions are the shows, Numb3rs ,N.C.I.S. and NCIS: Los Angeles, Monk (a kind of modern day Colombo).

On the supernatural, sci-fi and fantasy front I've been enjoying Ghost Whisperer (about a woman who can see ghosts), Stargate Universe, Sanctuary, Warehouse 13 and Eureka.

These are all very cool shows and I recommend them to all.

 

Game On... Line...!!!
   

It's been a long time since I've played any games on my pc.

I used to enjoy Quake and played it with a passion for hours on end. Nowadays, online games are the popular medium.

I've recently discovered some popular websites for free, quality games that I'm sure you will love too!

So check out Classic Games Arcade for golden oldies like Pac Man and Space Invaders.

Click Candy Stand to see some fantastic, innovative games such as Fancy Pants which I love.

The Shockwave site is very cool with a wide variety of games, have a click and see!

Big Fish Games have a multitude of online games for all ages. Lots of fun for all. Go see!

And finally, I have to mention Maid Marian, of which I'm a big fan. This is a site which has to be seen for it's high quality graphics.
