After a long hiatus from Irish bars in 2007, it’s time to regain our cool at Finn macCool’s on December 7! Located in the heart of Capitol Hill’s exciting Barracks Row District, Finn macCool’s offers up plenty of fun activities such as a pool table, a Tornado foosball table, two dart boards, and an awesome 20’ Champion shuffleboard table! This is the perfect place to catch up with friends before the holiday break. The Deaf and Hard of Hearing in Government 10th Anniversary Luncheon will be held at
Finn macCool’s
713 8th St SE
Washington,
See you there!
Unfortunately a hard drive crashed and they have been lost forever. We apologize for the inconvenience. This is an opportune time to remind everyone to back-up precious family photographs and files over the Thanksgiving or holiday break. If you don’t back-up frequently, don’t despair. A Newsweek column reports that a Harris Interactive online poll found 35% of us don’t (check out the link, it’s a great article). Speaking of which, have any of you used online file back-up services? Here are some found via a cursory search on Google, and they all have cool names,
Have a great Thanksgiving!

Another online backup site to try out: Mozy. This company was acquired last Sept by EMC,a large and reputable data-warehousing company. There were rumors that Google was going to acquire this company before EMC snapped them up. Mozy works on both PC and Macs.

Buy two harddrives and use them in RAID Mirror configuration. This way you don’t need to back up your data, because it is already backed up on the other one if one fails.
If both fail, there is a very high chance that a data recovery program will be able to retrieve the data from one of the two drives.
This eliminates having to remember to backup… hard drives are so cheap that a second one doesn’t cost that much.
