Quick Tip: Lock Your Computer When Away
Why: Leaving your computer unlocked when you’re away can result in serious consequences. Anyone could gain access to your private information—everything from financials to security codes, passwords or worse—resulting in fines, lost funds, or a damaged reputation.

IT Radix: What inspired you to learn the guitar?
Anthony and Ken were inspired by seeing performers ranging from The Beatles on The Ed Sullivan Show and BB King live at the PNC Arts Center.

Keep Your Recovery Email Up to Date!
It happens to the best of us. Sometimes when we type our password our finger strokes get jumbled up. Or… sometimes that darn “NumLock” key has unknowingly been pressed and we end up entering our password incorrectly too many times—reaching the maximum number of attempts—and finding ourselves locked out of our account(s).
Thankfully, we have a solution for getting back in—our recovery email!
This is all well and good, but what if your recovery email is invalid or no longer accessible? Often, we forget what recovery email is even connected to our account.

Over spring break, we took a family road trip and visited the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Football Hall of Fame, along with some outdoor time hiking and more. We all enjoyed both venues and my son, Alex, especially enjoyed the Garage Band area where you could pick a guitar, play the drums or other percussion instruments, or sing along to your favorite band.
