Andy Beaulieu has updated his Physics Helper for Blend and Silverlight. As he explains it contains several Behaviors and controls which allow you to draw objects in Expression Blend 3, and have those objects translated directly into Physics objects using the Farseer Physics Engine. This can be a great time saver for creating games, as it is traditionally difficult to line up underlying physics bodies and geometries with your Blend artwork.

I found this very useful. It's an article series that cover the following:
Module 1: Getting Started – Architecture / Framework
Module 2: Movement and collision detection
Module 3: Design – Sprites, boards and dialogs
Module 4: Animations and sound
Module 5: Initialization and Deployment
Module 6: Advanced concepts (Physics, Multiplayer, Optimization)
I believe the last one so far is module 3. Interesting.

Clear explanation on how to create a pair of eyes that will follow the mouse's motion. I can see the huge potential of these eyes when they fall in the hands of a graphic designer.
