Chatted briefly with Cindy about UCSF email being down on match day—sounds bad, but I don't have any control over the system so there's nothing I can do. Breakfast at home: Arizmendi bran muffin, nonfat milk. Doctor phone appointment scheduled at 8:30 AM but he didn't call, so I hopped on the next bus and then he called around 9:00 AM so I asked him to call back later. Throughout the day I responded to messages from students emailing from their non-UCSF email accounts asking about the email system. ITS reported that some users were unable to log in to email. We don't have a good way to easily reach all students in a non-emergency without email. Helped Joel set up wireless on the white shared office laptop in S-936, then helped him understand why the problem he encountered existed. Finalized graduation ceremony page edits for Cindy and pushed them live. Management activities. Shared 2-tier logos with Eric. Lots of image work for the update from the dean for Susie, pushed the page live. Encountered a problem in which our stylesheets failed to load on the live and staging servers. Eric and I troubleshot but as we began the problem resolved itself. I asked Servint about it, but they could not help. More MCCA followup with Kurt G and Amanda M. Answered a question for Susie about currency notation style. Updated the homepage announcement for update for the dean for Susie. Very late lunch from Courtyard Cafe: veggie bento box, Vitamin Water (Energy). I appear to be the first person to properly name and add Courtyard Cafe to Foursquare and Loopt. Chatted briefly with Eric about HDMI cables and other S-936 issues. Spent 12 minutes on the supp app project resolving a problem with the prereqs view and the quarter units code. Dinner at home with Will: tortilla chips and guacamole; stir fry with firm tofu, baby bok choy, yellow onion, green onion.
