Usual oatmeal breakfast. Helped Cindy with a computer startup problem. Installed Growl 1.1.3 at home which failed the first time but installed successfully the second time. I don't know why it failed the first time. Management activities. Xerox has a new logo—how exciting! Troubleshot repeating ghost images on our Xerox 6200DP reported by Eric V. Using Xerox's online troubleshooting tool, I was quickly able to figure out how to print a Repeating Defects Page and determine that the imaging unit is causing the problem. Our imaging unit is near end of life, but I think we have encountered this problem ever since it was installed and I never got around to investigating it. I did not know about the Repeating Defects Page until today—it's very useful when you know about it. I think we'll ride out the remainder of life on this imaging unit unless there's a critical need. Faculty member Norm O shared a large bag of fresh bing cherries with our office—delicious! Created a draft for a second congratulations poster for display cases in the hallway for Cindy. Web updates: org chart, about the students. Learned about TweetScan today. Web team meeting with Eric D and Susie. Back to Parnassus. More ServInt setup. System restore for Joel's computer—more PharmAdMIT 2008 problems. Home. Weight training: advanced one-legged plank, side plank, concentration curl. Dinner at home with Patrick: pig stir fry with vegetables. Altered two shirts in 2 hours.
