As of today I have been able to do very little work with the website due to strep-throat. I came down with the illness almost one day after my last update and I didn't get well until about 2 days ago. That little bug took it out of me, But I'm back on track now. While I was sick I did manage to build 2 computers for my personal lab, bringing the total up to four. I plan to start networking them as soon as possible. After I thought my kernel on my main Linux Box was up to par, I locked down all but two open ports on my computer giving it an added bit of security. I haven't gotten a chance to begin programming, I believe that one will have to go on the back burner until I get my site up to speed. I believe that the current motif of my site is the one that will be used for some time, and now is the time to start working on substance. These are my objectives as of now:

• First: Get to work on another article for the website.
• Second: Begin programming again before I become too rusty.
• Third: Get my computer lab networked.
