Project excel file has been updated.

*Lord, this book is such a headache. The pages are browning at the edges, so when I make auto color corrections that make the middle of the page good, the page borders turn an ugly dark purple. Manual correction still leaves the borders a dark color. Still working on ways to minimize this effect and still have a nice looking book. In addition, the printing of the pages were bad, so on some pages there is a 2" strip through the middle of the page where the red ink was running out. Ugh. I dropped a sample page in the 4shared directory, if anyone has any suggestions.
