We must always remember the brave men and women in uniform, military and first responders, who put themselves in harms way every day. They deserve our respect, our thanks and our support. They truly make this the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Received both models of the Mark II and the Mark VII yesterday and cant wait to get started on the builds of the models. Will post them when i have completed them.
SO SAY WE ALL!!!!!!
If you haven't already, I'd encourage any "Caprica" fans to visit my website, VisitCaprica.com. It is my attempt to document the filming locations used in the series. I've ID's the vast majority of locations, but there are still a few locations to pin down!
This can be a valuable resource if you are planning a trip to the Vancouver area and want to visit some of these locations.
Words do not even sums up what I really wanted to say here. Today is a very special day to someone that is very Dear to my heart! I really had no idea what to give to this person as a birthday gift that will mean to her more than anything else. And I thought of this one thing that she will never expect coming from me. So I contacted her very good friend Miguel Rivera and ask for his help to make me a one of kind BSG artwork that only him can do since they are good friends of many years. I have watch Miguel and her do phenomenal work on Battlestar Aries. The two of them are one hell of a team together on the Aries in my humble opinion. So without further ado, I would like to present the following phenomenal artwork done by Miguel Rivera per my request to him, to none other than this special woman. My significant half, DragonLady. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY DEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!: I love you!!!!!!!!!!!!
The significance of the artwork relayed to me by Miguel are as follows:
- The back ground was kept lively in order to honor her sensibility while complimenting her bright personality.
-The shields in the corners carefully noted are in the same shape of "Superman S" to denote her hard work and integrity. That is the same frame shape that is used on Battlestar Galactica, where all the papers and frame the corners are removed
- He also place the Phoenix logo not only because it looks cool, but most importantly she represent what a Colonial Warrior embodies. Makes him very proud that she has come along way and still learning. But then as we all are.
-The binary numbers represent the ships computers and diagnostic in engineering.
-Next, he included parts of the Galactica hull as a token of good faith as she is a fan like many people out there.
- Lastly and faithfully, he placed two crossed wrenches because you are his Engineer and a good friend of many years.
It was a great honor for him to render this art in her honor of her birthday.

Hello Everyone,
Just a note. I will be getting the Bear Mc Creary interview out soon. The interview went well. Bear was great, even said hello to a couple of friends for me at the end. I had asked Bear a few questions. One question was about the BSG music scores and visual memories of every moment of a scene that goes along with it. Another was in regards to his decision to compose scores. It's a cool interview, It was nice to meet and talk to the man behind the music of BSG. I'll type up more about that interesting day soon when I get the video squared away.
