Some maya video training?

I have somewhat got the basic of maya down and i want to go on with game modeling. I have the Learning Maya Foundation book and want to go on with character modeling. What are some good books I should I get. Or better yet, what are some DVD's out there that will teach all the steps from character modeling, to texturing, rigging, and so on. I was looking at simplymaya, but their site is down. I also have the game artist's guide to maya, but that book isn't the idea for me being somewhat new, it doesn't give clear steps for beginners. So if you guys have anything I can look into that would be great.

Nothing what I am looking for. I wish simplymaya was up, don't know why their site is down, but they seem to have a good dvd on character modeling, texturing and rigging for games. Oh well, I guess I will have to wait.

Yes i have seen them, I thought they was extremely pricey, but I guess it something worth it. Is simplymaya.com any good?

I have bought some of the simplymaya.com tuts and found them to be vgood for beginners(ie me). Detailed discriptions of tool and processes that are being used. Clear and concise explanations of why things are being done and a fair variety of tuts although there seemed to not be enough low poly ones.
