My expertise in network security and business continuity started in the physical security world. Yes folks, that's right, I was 'on stage' working for the Tribune company's National League Ball Club aka the Chicago Cubs. I may take in the game on Sunday -- Working on particulars now. Photos were from my last day. Working with Evelyn and Henry made it all worthwhile...

Global Sunset

I saved this photo and summary I received by email from David February 2003...

I have trouble as I sit and type this entry comprehending how quickly the last four years have unfolded. 'The picture is of Europe and Africa when the sun is setting. Half of the picture is in night. The bright dots you see are the cities lights. The top part of Africa is the Sahara Desert.

This was taken by the crew on board Columbia on its last mission.

This photo was sent via satellite, on a cloudless day. Note how the lights are already on in Holland, Paris, and Barcelona, and how it's still daylight in London, Lisbon, and Madrid. The sun is still shining on the Straight of Gibraltar, and the Mediterranean Sea is already in darkness. In the middle of the Atlantic Ocean you can see the Azores Islands; below them to the right are the Madeira Islands; a bit below are the Canary Islands; and further south, close to the farthest western point of Africa, the Cape Verde Islands. Note how the Sahara is huge and can be seen clearly both during daytime and nighttime. To the left, on top, is Greenland, totally frozen. Fantastic!' Peace. ~J.
