    COVID the 3rd

    Sure enough, the tallies for new cases continued to increase until 8PM CDT. The final total for the USA was 91,530. Europe’s increased as well, finishing the date at 279,499. Again, both are records. Very difficult to feel good about numbers like that. -Moe

    USA record today for the "New Cases" at just short of 86,000, time on the data tables was 7:07PM CDT, so it may well increase over the next few hours. Europe's "curve" looks even worse, with 273K+. France alone had 47K+. Germany's Angela Merkel announced that her country's "contact tracing"...

Yes, its government behaved irresponsibly, but that just brought matters to a head more abruptly. The disease was already seeded in the rest of the world and its transmission was inevitable...

    Jenkins Model Pic

    Rob, It's hard to believe that a collector can buy this stuff off of the shelf and set it up to such fine effect. The sets are unique to JJD and have no parallel in the world of either toy soldiers or scale modeling. And thanks for your generous comments and encouragement. Both are genuinely...

    A Bridge to far.

    Wayne, A term came to mind when I first saw the diorama pics above, tours de force. Then it occurred to me that I might somehow be misapplying its meaning or spirit. For the sake of precision, I looked the term up and found the following: Having view your images yet again, I can state...

    COVID the 3rd

    Back to Covid 19 and today's data for the pandemic: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ I won't quote any specific number, because the figures could well change before any of our readers review them. Should you bravely choose to delve into the data, keep in mind that averages are more...

    Jenkins Model Pic

    Hi Louis, I've got a cast-iron, pedestal table coming and will use plywood as a foundation for the deck. The blue foamboard that you see is 30" wide, the same width as the the deck. However, I may actually eschew a backdrop for anything other than taking pictures. Ultimately, I want to put the...

    Jenkins Model Pic

    Hi Chris, After I posted, I recalled that there had, indeed, been several series of pics devoted to Jenkins' BH sets. Another contributor was Zach Lang. However, in all three cases, a full-moon or two has since the images were posted. Hence, the oversight. :) -Moe
