Not for the Faint Hearted http://bit.ly/bDKfRD
I was sent this link http://bit.ly/bDKfRD to see the "top ten" low fly past scenes on video. With some of them, the margine left for any error is minimal to say the least. Enjoy.

Back to School
The students started back at my school today. It seems to me that some of them have taken the school holidays as an opportunity to do absolutely nothing. What I mean to say is, they have not even done anything to enjoy themselves and I find that very disappointing. How am I going to motivate them to get some work done if they can't motivate themselves enough to have a good time? I have tried to explain to them that the UK government is going to make big cuts to many budgets and I reckon education will be among them. This will mean that there will be less university places and my students will have to do really well in their exams, and, be able to show that they have something more to bring to the table so that they stand out from the rest of the applicants. To this end, I am trying some incentives and I'll see how we got this year. At least I've got a brilliant bunch of youngsters to work with. It's just that I can not seem to be able to convince them of just how good they are. I'll just have to introduce them to my old school chum Percy Vere.

http://bit.ly/1bbuiN for a Jessica Mills writeup
My friend and actress Jessica Mills has a series of short films on the web. http://bit.ly/1bbuiN gives a writeup of what a critic thinks of the show. Go to http://www.projectaproductions.com/Awkward_Embraces.html to see what the fuss is about. I have watched them all and have not been disappointed. But then, I am weird. Go on, you know ou want to.

I recently bought a "classic" book called "Who Moved My Cheese?" by Dr Spencer Johnson. There's some good stuff in it. It's reduced in price on Amazon at present http://amzn.to/cQDtnE

Bleucchh!
I am a complete bonehead when it comes to sorting out anything to do with websites. I have a number of URLs with Namecheap and hosting with Hostgator. I was trying to get a "simple" Wordpress web site sorted today but just messed up. At least I have now got the DNS server stuff sorted and should be able to get on and do a web site over the weekend. I can't do it Saturday as I am off to RAF Duxford with my son in law Rich to see the Battle of Britain aircraft displays. That said, I shall also be using Wordpress Direct to sort some more web site stuff out in quick time as I wrote a couple of articles today. Back to school tomorrow!
