Web Site Advisory April 3, 2008

Our web host will be performing routine maintenance on the MySql server that contains our data. The following message was provided by our host:


MySQL Maintenance Scheduled for Tonight

As part of our ongoing efforts to improve MySQL performance, we will be adding new hardware and re-allocating the load on our MySQL servers between 12:00am and 5:00am EDT on Thursday, April 3, 2008. During this five-hour maintenance window, there may be periods of time when your database is temporarily inaccessible, making the database-driven pieces of your Web site temporarily unavailable to your visitors. (You should be able to connect to your database(s) as normal for most of this maintenance window, but you may experience intermittent connectivity issues between midnight and 5:00am EDT.)

We have scheduled this maintenance for a time when traffic to most customers' sites is typically at its lowest. Still, we apologize for any inconvenience, and we expect that the work we're doing will help improve your site's performance.

Acting Governor Authorizes GPSS to Transfer Funds PDF Print E-mail
Bill signed also allows the pledge of funds for repayment of streetlight bill

July 8, 2008

Acting Governor Michael W. Cruz, M.D. today signed Bill No. 268 into Public Law 29-87, authorizing the Guam Public School System to transfer funds between appropriations for Fiscal Year 2008.

The authorization provides GPSS flexibility in the use of its Fiscal Year 2008 budget.  P.L. 29-87, however, prohibits the transfer of funds required to pay all legal outstanding personnel obligations for current and past years. 

"The school system needs the flexibility to use funds, especially as we prepare for the new school year," Acting Governor Cruz said.  "We expect full reporting and accounting of the use of these transfers to ensure funds are being used to improve the classroom and the education of our school children."

P.L. 29-87 also allows the Guam Economic Development and Commerce Authority to pledge Section 30 funds for the repayment of a $13.8 million loan to pay the delinquent streetlight bill to the Guam Power Authority.  The authorization now makes the loan possible.

"We will act swiftly to secure the loan and pay the streetlight bill to prevent an unnecessary increase in power rates," Acting Governor Cruz said.  "We want to do everything we can to reduce the cost of living for the people of Guam and this is one way we are taking action."
