Monster Slayer
Hey, long-time fazer/lurker here doing a short film project down in Gallup, NM. It's based on Navajo mythology, but with a big injection of comic-book/superhero action movie styling, giant stop-motion monsters (think J.Carpenter's 'The Thing'), kickass girl-monster-slayer shooting lightning arrows, and aerial cinematography. Check it out!

Patrick Stewart was asked the question what the most important thing he’d ever done besides acting was. His answer was his work with campaigns against violence toward women. Good video.

The Lunchbox Doodle Project (Update)
"On his first day of kindergarten, I made a simple drawing on an index card to put into my son's lunchbox. As of today, I've continued this practice every day for three years of elementary school, which now also includes a year of kindergarten doodles for my second son. To date, I have drawn more than 800 lunchbox doodles, and have posted nearly 200 funny poems to go with them."

Monophone
Who among you haven’t wondered how many dried tears it would take to fill a salt shaker or how long it would take to sip an Olympic-sized pool through a straw? Doubtless, you’re similarly inclined to have contemplated the size of the screen that could be made if the displays were ripped out of every iPhone ever sold and combined into a single colossus.

Wallflowers
In what may be one of the most eye-catching recent symbols of the spirit of Earth Day in the green building movement, a new apartment complex in Hamburg, Germany, has opened with two unique green walls. These aren’t the kind with plants attached to the outside skin; these walls are actually made of tiny, energy-producing plants suspended in water-filled chambers.
