   Laptop computer with global metaphor  Okay so your still up north getting ready to head south for the winter. Here are a few tips. Remember to bring your laptop power supply! Don't forget an external hard drive (back up all your data before you leave!) Please bring your "system recovery disk" if one came with your computer - that will save the tech hours of work! I always bring a spare internal hard drive for each of my computers - my wife always asks if I have rocks in the suitcase.
     Let's talk hard drive failures. I had three hard drives fail over the summer and one was a brand new solid state drive from a highly reputable company that lasted one hour. Hard drives will fail. About 5% will fail in the first 90 days. After 5 years the rate of failure begins to rise to 50%. Most of the time, the drives will fail without any warning. You need to back up your photos, documents and data once a month. I back up my financials daily. If you have one computer then check out carbonite.com or mozy.com for easy on-line backup solutions. And yes, Mac computers face the same hard drive failures.  thecomputerguy@usa.com

Sukhasana Yoga & Pilates Center introduces Flow & Go - a new morning yoga practice for those who want to jump start their day, rev up metabolism and prep the body for the day's activities. Every Tuesday and Friday morning at 7:15 (starting this Friday, 11/16), this will be a vinyasa-based class suitable for all students, with ample opportunity to "up-level" to intermediate and intermediate/advanced throughout the class. The class will focus on building core strength, lengthening muscles, and releasing tension built up in the shoulders, back and hips... mixed with just the right amount of "zen" to leave you feeling fresh and energized. Please email the instructor if you have any question: Sara Close; sara.close@gmail.com

ROAD REPORT

a.  We crossed the border on Thursday, early afternoon. Nothing new to add. After our SUV was inspected we drove to an uncovered parking area and were escorted to the offices which are on the right side of the inspection area. First stop is the "bank" where you fill out the FMM. They take US$ or pesos, enter data from the passport and print out two pages. Next go to the office where they keep one page and stamp the FMM. Very efficient - easier and quicker than the old border crossing.

QUESTIONS

a.  Has anyone taken a Microwave to LaPaz or to San Jose for repair? Please call or e-mail, with recommendations, and directions if you know. Thanks, Elsa elsa1599@yahoo.com
