My oldest, Alex, in his first track meet ever, came within 2 seconds from breaking the state record for the 200 and 400 last night. Amazing! And, he’s only a Freshman.
Since it’s his first year of track, he slowed down at the end, not knowing he should run through the finish line instead of slowing down. If he hadn’t slowed down he would have beat it completely. I can’t wait for the next meet. He was about 100 yards from the nearest competitor. He totally blew everyone away.
I was in the stands pushing him on, but it really is a great thing to watch your son do so well. The coaches believe he will break National records this year in the 200, 400, long jump, and in the high jump. His long jump record, so far, is 20.2 feet.
You will all get to meet him at MMS this year, since the whole Trent clan will be attending. Hope to see you there.

Nothing to see here. Actually, just testing the new settings for BlogJet. It seems to work pretty dang well. A lot faster, too.

Summary
Microsoft will be making some necessary changes to Microsoft Windows desktop operating system software related to the way in which Internet Explorer handles some web pages. The purpose of this communication is to provide additional information on the planned IE Active X update for Windows® client and server, and to point organizations and website developers to technical information. These changes are related to Internet Explorer and the Eolas Technologies and the Regents of the University of California v. Microsoft patent case (Eolas v. Microsoft). The IE Active X update will be rolled-up and included in the next available Internet Explorer security update, which could come as soon as the April 2006 Bulletin release. This update will be required via Windows Update and Automatic Update.
Recommended Action
Microsoft recommends that organizations evaluate their internal applications with this update. Testing can be done by installing the update on a client machine and navigating to web pages/applications in IE. Application owners can update their web pages using the techniques suggested on MSDN at http://msdn.microsoft.com/ieupdate, to ensure controls will function without user interaction.
Customers who do not deploy the next available Internet Explorer security update, which includes the IE Active X update, will not receive the most current security patches and may put their environment at risk.
Known Issues
Please see compete list of known issues - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/912945/en-us
The IE Active-X update will affect all Siebel 7 High Interactive clients. After you apply this security update, you will have to click several times to interact with the Siebel program, one time for each ActiveX control in the program. Siebel is working with Microsoft to identify a solution. A Siebel product update is expected to release in the spring of 2006.
