Shalla Secure Services
Blacklists UT1
MESD Blacklists (not sure how current this one is)
Anyway, I updated the getlists.sh script from the HOWTO – Child-Proofing Internet Access on Kubuntu article. It was failing because squidGuard kept not finding files and going [...]

Went to a cool little party last night at the Thirsty Bear – many thanks to Theron Conrey for setting it up. Open bar, good food, lotsa laughs, and some pretty big brains were present (Scott Lowe, Theron, Laus Troen [drove in from Norway, apparently], etc.) Today, I have one lab in the afternoon, so [...]

Back for more in Huntsville, this time for two weeks. I have one week left. What a long weekend it was. Went to a local park on Saturday, stayed by the hotel pool Sunday. It’s just too hot here. I think this is my last trip out here for training.

Spending the week in lovely Huntsville, Alabama. Never been to this state before – seems nice.
IT’S REALLY REALLY GREEN HERE.
Takes some getting used to…
Hopefully, I’ll have time to take in the space museum.

He was greatly respected in the workplace, and seemed to [...]
