3. Super Tuesday – Tomorrow is the biggest Presidential Primary to date for 2008. This is becoming a very interesting RACE.
4. Simple Rules for Computer Security – If you’re worried about computer security, then follow these simple rules to ensure safe computing.
·        Always be sure to log off.
·        Make sure you have and know some back-up resources.
·        Don’t forget your PDA. Even though it’s small, it can still be a big security risk.
·        Always be aware of possible theft.
·        Don’t make your password too easy, and change it often.
·        Understand your ISD security policy; if you don’t know it, ask.
5. Sad News LeAnn Maroki, an SXI student attending Thomas Jefferson, passed away last week. The funeral has already taken place, but I ask that you keep LeAnn’s friends and family in your prayers.
