It has a long time since my last blog post.  I was holding off while my web master redid much of the site. 

Unfortunately, that took much longer than we had hoped.  Happily it is now finished and my site looks better than ever. 

Please feel free to look at these posts (and scroll through the older posts) to find those which interest you. 

See you there,

It is the New Year and here are a few things you should try and accomplish: 

1. Change your passwords.  Experts recommend changing the passwords on your sensitive accounts (e.g. email, banks, shopping sites, etc.) at least once a year.

2. Back up your data.  Again, making backups that include all your needed data should be done at least once a year.  Store this backup offsite to make sure a calamity to your main computer does not also affect your back up.

3. If you have a copyright notice add a year to the legend (i.e. ©  2003–2014 Andrew M. Jaffe, Attorney at Law)

4. Download any data you need to file your taxes now (e.g. bank & credit card statements) as sometimes the institutions won’t allow you to look back more than a six months or a year and you won’t be able to get all the data you need to fill out your taxes.

I know this sounds like a lot of work, and it is.  Here it is the 16^th of January, and I still have one of these goals to complete.  I should be done by the end of the day.
