Email Issue Resolved
We replaced my email server with a new computer over the weekend. Data transfer was easy. Looks like there is no data loss so far. Setting up the email server, however, took many hours as many tedious settings have to be done manually. Anyhow, it is all done. Everything back up and running. And a …

Reviving NeoTicker Blog Site and Updates on Other Projects

The site was hacked through exploits in the older version of WordPress which led to massive email spamming coming off the site. I made an agreement with NeoTicker’s company to oversee the restoration project. So far things are progressing slowly but […]

The 10 and 12 Year Cycles That Shape Our Lives
