Hurricane Irene is heading towards Connecticut, and campus authorities cannot guarantee there will be power on campus Sunday and Monday depending on how things turn out. I suggest we leave the machine on, after all there is a good chance it will not shut off. But I suggest that no big job run on Sunday and Monday, so that we do not need to receover from a big crash. If there are issues, they should be visible at http://itstatus.uconn.edu/ and http://alert.uconn.edu/ -- Christian Zimmermann FIGUGEGL! Economic Research Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis P.O.
