Weight training: bam bam. Breakfast at home: granola with fresh, diced apple; flax milk. Rode my bike to work. Linkchecking, kiosk work. Work related to Adobe Flash zero-day security vulnerabilities. Web update for Cindy: grad licensing app checklist. Reviewed Rebecca's new Qualtrics survey. Lots of email followup. Java security followup. Checked in by email with John M. Legal name change work. Listserv management. Lots of email followup. Chatted with Joel briefly about supp app. Followup with Rebecca and Julia about a redirect for BMI. Inbox down to 70. SOP IT wiki work: a notification of a completed limitation. Calendar management. Lunch by myself at You See Sushi: lunch special #3, which was slightly too large of a lunch for me. Lots of email followup. Checked in with Raul from ITS who came to address my request to update all browsers on all computers with the latest version of Adobe Flash. Calendar management. Completed and submitted pcard paperwork to La'Trece. Listserv management for student XY. I had brought my iPad to work today thinking I would do some responsive testing but it never happened—too many other things to do. Rode my bike home. Dinner at home with Patrick: leftover ravioli with marinara sauce, baby kale greens with grilled asparagus. Dessert: chocolate pudding pie with graham cracker crust. Camera research. Today I was really excited about the brand-new Sony NEX-3N and couldn't decide between it and the slightly older NEX-5R until I realized that both cameras had screens that only tilt instead of fully articulating like the screen of my old PowerShot A650IS. Dealbreaker. I returned to the E-PL5 but after seeing a video of it on YouTube realized that it too will not fully articulate. Fortunately, in the process of searching for NEX info I stumbled upon dpreview's camera search feature which is similar to snapshot. So I now have some new models to check out: Samsung EX2F, Nikon Coolpix P7700, Panasonic Lumix DMC-G5, Samsung NX20. The EX2F seems closest in size to my A650IS but I'm not sure if I want the same sort of thing as I have had the past 4 years. Organized bookmarks. Image Capture would no longer see my iPhone 3GS. Deleting prefs and zapping pram did not resolve the problem. Repairing disk permissions did not resolve the problem. Verify disk: no problems. Repaired disk permissions again. Cold booted the phone. Still no solution. Gave up for now.
