EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS: Improved Procurement of Land Mobile Radios Could Enhance Interoperability and Cut Costs

 

Note: The dots in the figure represent the 57 agencies that responded to our survey, plus the FBI. The gray lines connect pairs of agencies whereby only one agency within the pair identified the need to be interoperable with the other agency, and the black lines connect pairs of agencies whereby both agencies within the pair mutually and independently identified the need to be interoperable with one another.

ELECTRONIC HEALTH INFORMATION: HHS Needs to Strengthen Security and Privacy Guidance and Oversight

 

Note: In January 2015, the Office of Civil Rights (OCR) provided additional guidance to reporting entities which directed them to report some breaches as hacking or IT incidents instead of as theft as they may have previously reported.

Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm, this is where I make things happen in the IT world of my job. Solving computer problems, cleaning up viruses, cloning workstations, resetting passwords, creating new accounts in Active Directory, occasional playing with the latest and greatest piece of new computer hardware, or replacing a broken video card. There is always something going on, every day is faced with new challenges, I rarely see the same computer problem twice.

This is old drilling company data. No fracking!

Real floppy diskettes of different vintages.

Some are mine, but most I got from www.floppydisk.com in Tustin, CA, USA. Great for retro geek art projects. Not 3D printed replicas.

 

All I need now is my Commodore 64 with it's MOS 6510 CPU!

On a social note, did you realize that it's exactly 3 months until Christmas today?

 

My Dad was really into woodworking. I think he would have gotten a kick out of this one.

FEDERAL TELEWORK: Better Guidance Could Help Agencies Calculate Benefits and Costs

 

Note: The 2014 Status of Telework in the Federal Government Report to Congress stated that different numbers of agencies responded to each of the telework participation questions each year. Eighty-two agencies reported on the number of telework-eligible employees in 2011, 83 in 2012, and 86 in 2013. Eighty-two agencies reported on the number of telework agreements in 2011, 81 in 2012, and 83 in 2013. Seventy-five agencies reported on the number of employees teleworking in 2012 and 81 in 2013. OPM did not collect data on the number of employees that teleworked in fiscal year 2011 and thus we did not include this information.

While most know me for my photography, my actual job is with a college in Oakville, Ontario where I provide IT support to the entire college community. While these days most of the students and staff are working out of their home, there are a few of us who come onto the campus daily to work and learn. Here's a little peek into a quiet college campus...almost too quiet.

DATA CENTER CONSOLIDATION: Agencies Making Progress, but Planned Savings Goals Need to Be Established

The word is about, there's something evolving,

whatever may come, the world keeps revolving

They say the next big thing is here,

that the revolution's near,

but to me it seems quite clear

that it's all just a little bit of history repeating

 

The newspapers shout a new style is growing,

but it don't know if it's coming or going,

there is fashion, there is fad

some is good, some is bad

and the joke is rather sad,

that its all just a little bit of history repeating

 

.. and I've seen it before

.. and I'll see it again

.. yes I've seen it before

.. just little bits of history repeating

 

Some people don't dance, if they don't know who's singing,

why ask your head, it's your hips that are swinging

life's for us to enjoy

woman, man, girl and boy,

feel the pain, feel the joy

aside set the little bits of history repeating

 

.. just little bits of history repeating

.. and I've seen it before

.. and I'll see it again

.. yes I've seen it before

.. just little bits of history repeating

I have a brand-new MacBook. This is the adapter to be used when connecting my laptop to an external display, such as the projection system in a classroom: it is a female VGA plug and needs a corresponding male VGA plug from the external display in order to work.

 

I am running into 3 problems as I teach in my smart classrooms.

 

1. It's hard to set up the laptop so that it's not sitting on top of some other piece of equipment.

 

This is a problem for me in classrooms I use this semester or will be using next semester: HPAC 218 (see here), HPAC 219 (see here), & SMITH 210.

 

It would be nice to have a very long cable that allows the laptop to be placed on the podium or on one of the desks. Best Buy sells a VGA cable for $15 (click here), but I don't know enough about the needs of the projection system to know if that cable would work. Would the quality of the image be good enough through such an inexpensive cable?

 

2. In HPAC 218, I have to disconnect the document camera from the projection system in order to connect my laptop. Can another connection be made available for use with laptops?

 

3. SMIT 204 has no cable at all, but a female plug built into the technology car: See for yourself. Even with a male-to-male adapter, I cannot plug my laptop into the projection system.

 

What do I need to connect to the projection system?

How slow can you go, well for me the slowest I'm shooting the new P3200 is ASA-800, and you know the results are rather lovely. All the tones are there, clean, decent grain given everything.

Note: IRS officials said that the fiscal year 2014 amount is an estimate because it did not track cybersecurity costs separately from identity theft prevention and refund fraud until fiscal year 2015.
