Cyclone in Myanmar (Burma)
Posted: 08 May 08, 10:05:16

Sources are reporting that the terrible cyclone in Myanmar may have killed 200,000 people and that up to 500,000 may die due to sickness and starvation. There is very little that can be done since the country is ruled by one of those horrendous military dictatorships that don't care who lives or dies. You can donate to major aid organizations that will try to deliver essential supplies and medicine to the survivors of the storm.

All Girl Star Squad: Games and Cartoons
Posted: 03 May 08, 12:05:25

The All Girl Star Squad is a group of superhero girls who battle an alien queen in webisodes on the new gaming site, allgirlarcade.com. The site offers colorful games, videos, and a shopping area. The animation is good and the limited selection of games turns out to be a lot of fun.

The Idiotic Adventures of Philippe and Pierre
Posted: 23 Apr 08, 11:04:58

This is part of a series of cartoons about a body trying to re-attach its severed head. They are very funny and somehow manage to make a headless body cute and lovable.

A Short Love Story in Stop Motion
Posted: 23 Apr 08, 11:04:30

It's not done yet, but Carlos Lascano's new animation looks really good. It seems to be about a girl who daydreams about falling in love with a boy in her classroom. It uses a lovely mix of techniques.
