Heather came to visit!
We spent the week relaxing, took a boat ride on the Hudson, stopped by Orange County Choppers to get some pics for Steve, and went on a bunch of roller-coasters at Six Flags (with no lines!)

Search Flow Chart
Posted a simple flowchart of how I run our search. When the user clicks “go” on our search the query is run through a simple script (outlined below.) It checks a simple MySQL table (contains only id, keyword, url. ) If there’s a match, the user is redirected to that page. If there’s no match it sends the query to the Google search page on our site at http://www.vassar.edu/search/.
