CSSLP class - Implementation III and Review

I missed the beginning of this class because I had no internet access at home; thanks to hurricane Irene. I was able to wirelessly tether one of my old laptops to my Droid X phone and get access to the class around 1945; so 45 minutes into it. It just so happens that last week the power button on my current laptop broke, so I can't get it powered on. Furthermore, I forgot my work laptop at the office. So, multiple problems all coalessing.

Extra from our instructor Mr. Franke, at the beginning of class:
