Truth be told, I would have made the same choice as a child.  Cookies or no, Vader is just way cooler.

Why is flickr so great?  Because we get to find out about cool artists like this!  Some wicked Yeti action from Stina Jones, an artist and designer based in the UK.  Check out her super great website and flickr.

It’s hard to believe all the devastation that Japan has seen in the last few days.  The damage caused by the earthquake and tsunami seems almost inconceivable.  As a Nation far removed from Japan, its difficult to think that we as citizens can help the Japanese people in any way that is valuable.  But we can.  The following organizations are taking donations for tsunami relief.  Defend Japan.

MercyCorp

American Red Cross

UNICEF

Save the Children

International Medical Corps

Global Giving

The perfect blend of art and technology.  I heart spray painted rainbows made by a contraption pulled by a bike.
