Warning.  This will not be a " technical ah-ha...I figured it out"  ramble of my brain vs. the evilness that haunt every web master, etc.  This is me, Lola.

 I cannot figure out page color schemes or create websites, or heck, even understand what John was rambling about on Monday's blog.  But I did read it.  And nodded.  And yes, I twirled my hair and smiled.  And as I sit here and glance over at my girlie handband I notice that a gemstones has fallen out and now will have to stop to find the glue (humm.. and now I remember that I tossed it because it looked too similar to my Visine eye wash and I was afraid that I would confuse the two.  Yes, I'm serious and it's very possible that it would've  happened).  After 10 minutes I give up thinking it will receate itself and instead munch on some lemon heads that I found in a drawer curtesy of Bob.

So back to Girlmore Girls.  How will I survive on Tuesday nights?  Wit

Oh how I love thee.. not really.

Microsoft sharepoint is a wonder CMS tools. IT does take care of allot of  tedious back-end stuff that a large organization would have to do manually. the issue is when you are trying to deploy it in a smaller environment, it becomes allot for one guy to handle.

Anyways, I 've been able to tame the beast for now, especially with the constant nagging issue that I have been having with integrating Live communication server 2005. I think I've finally nailed down some important key concepts.

1. Don't give up
2. Certificate server on MS 2003 server sucks, just deal with it
3. Once LCS is installed, go to the certificate server (ususally the subCA) from the LCS machine and select Download a CA Certificate, Certificate Chain, or CRL and click on certificate from the SubCA. and install it in the local machine's Trusted Root Certification Authorities on the LCS machine.
4.  
5. Remember to add a forward looking zone in DNS (Administrative Tools -> DNS). Right click, Other New Records and then "Service Location."  Enter into Service, Port Number, and Host Offering this Service the values _sip, 5060, and the FQDN of the LCS server.
6. In the forest right click, Specify the SIP domain that your LCS will allow., if you are like me using and email address/sign-on names different than your organization's default.
7. Patience... Provisional and propagation take time. 10 minutes minimum
8. Remember.. You are smarter than the computer.
9. Remember to set  in IE the portal at a trusted site with full URL http://portal.n2tec.org for presence icons to work!

lookie.

Supply-chain managament... What in the world am I doing with this. I have no idea, but somoene wants me to learn more about it. Well for the folks that are like, "What the heck is that?", you can find some more information at:

Or search google for a list of fun web sites to visit at:

Now intergrating a mathematical model into this is going to be interesting.

Well, I broke my first rule about my new website. I changed something without putting it into the sandbox first.. Sorry about that ... but it is barely noticeable.. I modified my navigation to a non table layout in the quest for a liquid, CSS-p / no table layout design ( which it currently is). My ultimate goal is of course a web2.0 site, but first step is to get all of the tables out of the layout :-)  

So the navigaion looks simple for now, but wait until you can move it around!!!

Time to relax and enjoy the summer!

Christopher Arturo Juarez... May 10th, 2006... yeah!

Well look at a partial photo of my senior class photo... Can you find me...?

Not really sure where I was going with that, but I was searching around and found this post on goggle groups (USENET) back from Feb 1, 1995. Oh man... I must have been using a 386 16MHz AST computer to post that on the internet (I don't believe the web was anywhere alive at that time). Anyways at that time I was "borrowing" my friend's email account at UOP since the junior college I was at didn't quite make it on the internet yet. and not many people had email accounts... Ah, the good old days... Google link

Update: After thinking about it, I decided to try looking up the old BBS I use to dial into back around 1992 called "The Wrong Number", and I couldn;t believe it when I saw he has a website now! Oh man I remember downloading programs at 2400bps at midnight. Wow those were the days.
