VCCCD Retirees:
I am pleased to announce that retirees can now view the video recording of the ZOOM meeting of the recent VCCCDRA Sponsored Medicare Webinar by clicking the ‘play’ icon below.
Coming up with that simple looking link, required getting to know the file structure of our blog where it is hosted, it required one hour to upload the 1 GB video file up to a folder in that file structure using a special program for that purpose, and it required my creating a pointer called a subdomain name that pinpoints where the uploaded file is. The upshot is that we now know where to store large video files of any size for free video recordings within our own blog, and we now know how to gain access to them so that future ZOOM video recordings should present no problem in getting them and running in short order.
As it happens to be my 81st birthday today, which Angela and I celebrated while our home was blacked out by Southern California Edison due to heavy winds, very low humidity and fear of sparking a fire, I would like to share something that Ventura College and its foundation has just honored us with, and that is a picture of us on a banner to celebrate Ventura College’s 95th Anniversary. The picture was taken by dear friend Carol Weinstock, retired faculty member from Ventura College who now lives in Canada. Angela and I met in Mr. Rasor’s Introduction to Psychology, and by the time the picture was taken, we were both teaching on campus.
I hope you are all taking special precautions to keep yourselves safe.
Rene G. Rodriguez
President, VCCCDRA
