** Office Hours Cancelled Today **

My office hours for today only will be cancelled. Sorry for any inconvenience.

** COIN 61-7W Midterm this Weekend **

The COIN 61 Midterm Parts I and II will be available beginning Friday, Feb. 16^th, at 8:00 AM PT through Sunday, Feb. 18^th at 10:00 PM PT

Because of a planned network outage this weekend, I have changed the length of your midterm exam. Originally, the exam was schedule to begin this Friday at 8:00 am and go through Saturday evening at 10:00pm.

However, on Friday February 16, 2007 starting at 11 PM there will be a network outage on both Foothill and De Anza campuses including the District offices. All District computing services will be unavailable from On-Campus and Off-Campus during the outage. The total outage may be up to 8 hours.

For that reason, I have lengthened the window of the midterm so that it will last until Sunday evening at 10:00 pm. Please do NOT plan on taking the test between the hours of 11:00 pm Friday evening through 8:00 am Saturday morning.

** More Outage Info **

CCCSAT Outage

The CCCSAT streaming server that hosts all the RealAudio materials for my classes (COIN 63 Week 1 Web Site Building audios, etc.) will be unavailable beginning Thursday, February 15th at 3:00pm for maintenance and upgrades to its servers. This will require the CCCSAT Streaming Host Server to be taken off-line. As a result, access to and from cccsatvideo.palomar.edu will not be possible from Thursday, February 15th at 3pm until Tuesday, February 20th at 5pm.

All of your regular class materials will still be available, however, if you click a link to a RealAudio file, it will not load during this time period.

Foothill Outage

On Friday February 16, 2007 starting at 11 PM there will be a network outage on both Foothill and De Anza campuses including the District offices.

This includes, email, Meeting Maker, the Touchnet registration system, and all other district and academic computing services. The District web site at www.fhda.edu will be unavailable as well. Since the College front-end web servers are hosted off site, they will still be available: www.foothill.edu and www.deanza.edu.

This means that all sites hosted on the CTIS web server will be unavailable during this outage including all class and student sites. Please prepare accordingly.
