I’ve commented occasionally about social networking site and appropriate content posted therein. I’ll share an article I read on a favorite news site. It is an amazing abuse of authority in my opinion. It also demonstrates the hazards of what could happen when low-tech mentality bludgeons high-tech.

This week I’ve studied criminal larceny and embezzlement, third party beneficiaries in contract law, and products liability in tort. Law school has been very rewarding from a knowledge standpoint. I consider myself a life learner and this is a significant challenge I am certain to conquer. First year exams will be in October 2009, which… Read More
Loose Lips, Sink Ships.

I’ve managed to catch up which is a welcome position to once again be in. The first year law school exam is 14 August, 2009. I’ve been told this is really a law school student’s make or break exam. There has not been student or professor chatter about any other exam outside of the BAR… Read More

The network has been fixed, upgrades, migrated, and virtualized. Nothing brings about change better and faster than catastrophe. I have been virtualizing and consolidating my network from thirty servers on five network segments down to five servers on three segments. I pulled four racks out of my data room and now have one. On the… Read More

I’m playing catch up from mid-term examinations. To add insult to injury, the network is misbehaving which takes time that I would devote to other things and apply it to quenching my inner geek.
