Few of us had heard about Coronavirus in 2019.  It turned this world upside-down, and we hope you and your loved ones pass through it safely and with the least hardship as possible.

Our aspirations are that we can return to some normalcy soon.  But, for the time being quarantines, disinfectants, masks, social distancing, and myriad inconveniences and hardships loom ahead.  The above photo was taken in the author's dining room as he was channel surfing.

We can overcome this if we work together.   Alert: a public service message about the Coronavirus. 

Last November of 2019, this website received a breathtaking announcement when it was awarded by the international and prestigious MarComm Awards an outstanding achievement Honorable Mention in not one but in two categories: Website Informational and Writing format on digital media--it is one of the most difficult web design competitions in the world among design shops, advertising agencies, international corporate communication departments, and web designer companies,

with over 200,000 entries last year. 

Other notable competitors in 2019 were Hilton, Bank of America, Dell Technologies, Anglo American School of Sofia (London), IBM, Cal State Northridge, the Air Force Museum Foundation, Harvard Business School Online, and Cal Poly.  

It is also a great pleasure to announce from Texas--A most recent tribute from the prestigious Hermes Creative Awards, an international competition administered by the Association of Marketing and Communication Professionals (AMCP). 

In 2020, just recently, for outstanding work in electronic media-social media, the Hermes Creative Awards bestowed this website with two awards selecting us Honorable Mention in Web Writing/Content and also exceeding a high standard of excellence in the Informational category.  The Hermes Creative Awards is one of the largest, oldest and most respected evaluators of creative work in the world.  The Hermes is named after the ancient Greek messenger Hermes, an Olympian god from ancient mythology, associated with diplomacy, literature, orators and poets; in antiquity also connected to athletes, dreams, and fertility, with set images ithyphallic.

Our very first award was in 2019.   DotCOMM Awards recognized this website in the Web Design Competition, plus the difficult Informational Website Category.  It is an honor.  We now present a short 2min 40 sec mini timeline video, a small introduction to the Second World War, which can be viewable on any platform from Hand-held portables to ipads.  See below and press Play Video.
