 Aug 7, 2004 Jim driving at 110km/hr! |
 Aug 7, 2004 Check there's no police on our tail. |
 Aug 7, 2004 Coming up on Toronto. |
 Aug 7, 2004 Nearly there. |
 Aug 7, 2004 Pulling into the garage; the moving truck is already there. No worries, as Nipin, Tu, Sergio and Dan have got things under control before we arrive. |
 Aug 7, 2004 IEEE student office gets new furniture (hi Litifa). |
 Aug 9, 2004 12:54pm One of the last remaining desks to get loaded. |
 Aug 9, 2004 2:19pm Then the chairs and shelves begin their trip. |
 Aug 9, 2004 6:00pm Since the freight elevator is undergoing certification, the loading dock is off-limits and we have to park on Church street and unload at the front entrance. |
 Aug 9, 2004 9:00pm Circuits lab being set-up (you can tell it's night because it's dark outside the door). |
 Aug 9, 2004 9:40pm The lab is set-up, the equipment is locked and shrouded with drop-sheets to keep the dust off. |
 Aug 11, 2004 After an exhausting day, Jim hopes that the movers will not notice him when they move the furniture. |

 Aug 12, 2004 The Front Office furniture awaits installation. |
 Aug 12, 2004 10:00pm Setting-up the equivalent of EPH 237— the most work-intensive lab (so far). |
 Aug 12, 2004 11:00pm This is what everything looks like, at the end of a week of 12-hour days. |
 Aug 16, 2004 Installing the floor-covering along the Balcony. |
 Aug 16, 2004 9:00pm The exit signs glow in the unfinished 3rd floor corridor. To receive an Occupany Permit from the City, the building had to undergo a fire-inspection and have working sprinklers, exit signs, corridors free of obstruction, running water (cold), etc. |
 Aug 19, 2004 Typical faculty office. |
 Aug 17, 2004 11:00pm At the end of the day, the radios re-charge. In a building with no working telephones, and one which nearly spans an entire city block, radios were the only means of communications. |
 Aug 19, 2004 Sorting the network patch- cables in the "shade". |

 Aug 28, 2004 Cleaning and polishing before the students arrive on Monday, for registration. |
 Aug 31, 2004 This is the view from my office looking into the Computing Services office. The reason everything is still in boxes is that I have no shelves, no cabinets or desk drawers. So my office is used as a storage room. Wait, there's more: I cannot connect my computer because the electrical work is not finished (the lights are on only because 2 wires are shorted-together in the switchbox) and yes, that is a loop of armoured cable hanging from the wall. |
 Aug 31, 2004 Delivery of paving stones on Gould. |
 Aug 31, 2004 Paving stones await installation; viewed from the 4th floor Front Office. |
