     here are a few pictures and a video of Samuel when he did his Galaxy School Fun Run last week. He ran his little legs off.  :)

   Just finished reading/well listening to "Magyk book one" by Angie Sage. Got it off itunes audio books and thought it was very good. But as it was only book one of what I think its upto book 5 at the moment, so don't know if I will get to them all, but if I have a few £'s spare I would get the nexted one as Magyk was only £4.99 for a 12hr story.     Wiki page for Magyk here for more information.

    Ok when did sloths get so cute!? " Amphibian Avenger " writes: "I filmed this at the  Aviaros del Caribe  sloth sanctuary in Costa Rica: the world's only sloth orphanage. Baby two- and three-toed sloths, whose mother's have either been run over or zapped by power lines are brought to the sanctuary and looked after by Judy Arroyo." For more sloth photos and videos,   visit her blog , or   follow her on twitter . For more on the sanctuary go to   slothrescue.org .    Thanks to Boing Boing for this post. Meet the sloths from Amphibian Avenger on Vimeo .

     This has got to be one of he best fan made films out there at the moment. It was made by Alex Popov . AVP:Redemption fan film made by me Alex A. Popov for the purpose of entertaining the fans of both , Alien and Predator franchises, and also to share my vision of what Alien VS Predator film should be. The total budget for this film was about $500 and over 2 years of my free time :) It took so long cause it was a ONE MAN project. I did all filming, directing, Editing, VFX compositing, sound design, You name it. So hopefully you enjoyed it.  

     these images were done by  Josh Cooley who is an artist at pixar. In his spare time he has been doing these stills from some great iconic films, they have a child story book look, but are not for children.

     Google do like there easter eggs, if you type  "meet Android" into search and click feeling lucky, the uk views at least get a cool little thing going on with the browser! Roll on July when its my turn to upgrade my now ageing G1 for this bad boy!!     :)

     Picture here of Samuel with his 10m swimming badge, we are so proud of him, and he said he is proud of himself which is great. He was the only one in his class to get it, so I think he is really made up with himself.  :)
