Usual oatmeal breakfast. Maybe it's just me, but I think of toilet paper when I see Apple's cloud logo graphics for Mobile Me (or is it MobileMe?—even Apple is not consistent). Checked linkcheck setup for new websites, had some things to fix. Resolved some permissions problems with our synch script by logging in to the destination and resetting owner and group recursively to the destination owner. Removed --perms from the rsync command. Error message was: "rsync: symlink '/home/[username]/public_html/webdev/linkcheck/bps-chen/column1.php' -> 'column1.html' failed: Permission denied (13)". Linkcheck should be all set up now. The time shown is off by 3 hours but I didn't see a quick fix for it and it's not really that important. Resolved error messages such as "chown: cannot dereference 'pharmd/students/policy/hipaa/[filename]': No such file or directory" by using the oldlinks script from Unix Power Tools (O'Reilly) and deleting the broken links and cleaning up any additional references. Lunch at home: ramen noodles with spinach, egg, and green onions. Minor web edits for Scott and Carol. Requested our new IP address to be added to the permitted hosts for rsync for the old website from Kirk F and Tony T. Realized today that my Save as PDF to Receipts folder feature in OS X no longer works. I had created an alias to my folder called Receipts and put it in /Library/PDF Services and this worked fine in the past. I did not want to use Apple's default folder called Web Receipts. Now it's not working—when I save as PDF to Receipts, the file is not created as expected. I recreated the alias, found where the files were getting created, moved them to my desired folder, and then replaced the old alias with the new one. PharmAdMIT 2008 troubleshooting and followup. Websteering followup. Reviewed listserv settings for moderation. Began coding a new form for employers to submit job postings to us. Dinner at Universal Restaurant with Jen, Nate, and psychobauble. A bit noisy when we arrived at 7 but both the food and company were excellent. Service was very good. Stretches. Weight training: superslow one-arm dumbbell press, face outline, superslow dumbbell fly, crunch, wrist curl. Stretches.
