I completed the CD year
books for my 2 daughters classes with 10 minutes to spare. This
required staying up all Wednesday night to have the CD's completed and
over 50 CD's burned for the two classes and turned over to the teachers by
8:45am. The CD's are basically websites contained on CD's with a
homepage and many articles leading to hundreds of photos and and about 8
short videos. I also included auto-load programs so the CD's would
load automatically. Photos included fieldtrips, artwork by the kids
and classroom parties etc. Videos included singing performances and
even the year end tug-of-war between the grades at the year end All Fun
Day (as well as other events). I'm heading to bed early Thursday
evening and I will have the Friday update loaded by about 3pm New York
time. Thanks
for your patience everyone.

No update today. I'm

have slowed me down. I'll be shooting more photos and videos at year
end parties on Tuesday and Wednesday....then processing the new material
and creating dozens of copies of the 2 CD's on Wednesday night.

is here
with his 1/48 Hasegawa F-14A, VF-41.
Shawn built his Tomcat wheels up and displayed it on a stand.
A great looking model with a very effective display stand.

Si Tomlinson
has been
busy finishing his 1/48 Tamiya Fw-190 F8
in a complicated looking winter camo
scheme. Si used some after market detail tiems and I found his
technique for doing the instrument panel worth reading about....easy
but effective. I admire people that can pull off these
complicated camo schemes so well. Well done Si.

Rick Lorenz
has been
busy getting the markings and details right on his
1/48 Tamiya F-51D.
This is a Korean War Mustang that Rick researched and then pieced
together markings etc to make it happen. Once you see his
photos, I think you'll agree Rick's effort were well worth it.

James "Doc" Maloney
