WordPress website design for Phillip Huston, one of Southern California premiere model building authorities. His business, Phillip’s Hobbies in Lakeside, California offers everything the plastic modeling enthusiast could need to pursue his hobby: kits, tools, paints, books and other useful resources, including Phillip himself! Phillip had a problem, however, his website’s archaic design and his inability to update and maintain it. Phillip’s “old” website had been languishing unattended as do so many small business sites and was a perfect candidate for the control and flexibility the WordPress platform offers. Bringing WordPress website design to Phillip’s Hobbies puts new power in Phillip’s hands.

WordPress website design for La Jolla Meals On Wheels. For the last several years, I’ve had the privilege to be part of Greater La Jolla Meals On Wheels as their webmaster. Having served the La Jolla Community’s home bound citizens since 1974, I’m glad to help their very worthy effort. As I don’t participate in the day to day operations of the organization, I look forward to bringing its volunteers and staff into the website’s growth and evolution by migrating the site into the very robust WordPress platform. In this way, their experience and input can add to the site’s content in making a

WordPress website design for personal trainer Pedro Molina B.A. NASM of Aztec Fitness. Pedro and I became acquainted via his regular visits to my “satellite office” in La Jolla Shores.

Pedro trains his long-time clients, Bill and Lollie at this great location. Pedro is a personal trainer serving individual as well as corporate clients in La Jolla, San Diego and South Bay. We’ve become friends and now, collaborators. Pedro, like many other small business owners, desired greater control, flexibility

Written by Edward A. Sanchez Brass Ring Multimedia IS YOUR BUSINESS LIKE CHARLIE’S LIFE…going downhill? Charlie, Charlie, Charlie. I’ve gotta tell you, I like the guy…always have…it’s tough not to on some level. He’s got chops, he’s definitely a talented guy and Two And A Half Men is one of those shows I can always watch. Hot Shots, Wall Street, the list goes on…very cool. But, lately? (oy!) One of the habits I’ve learned to employ is that of looking inward whenever something “out there” irks me. (Like Charlie’s Vatican Assassin dive-bomb into hell.) I discovered long ago that I

This has been a favorite project of mine. I enjoyed participating in Ray Ehly, Jr.’s roadtrip. He took museum delivery (at the Corvette Museum adjacent to the Corvette Plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky) of a brand-new, top of the line Corvette Z06. He then drove it in ONE CONTINOUS loop to “ALL 50” United States. (Yes, Hawaii and Alaska too.) You can read all about it on the site I did for Ray in 2003. Check out “Ray’s Journal” for day-by-day details and images from this amazing adventure: www.All50Corvette.com As Ray rolled on throughout his trip…and to this day, he needed
