Unminify that long line of code
Sometimes the javascript is one long gigantic line. This works as described: “Use this free tool to unminify (unpack, deobfuscate) JavaScript, CSS, HTML, XML and JSON code, making it readable and pretty.”

from Sarah Freeman, Director of Communications, Grady College (03/17/2020) :
Good afternoon, Faculty and Staff — the campus communicators (StratComm) had a conference call this morning where several online campus resources were shared. While I am sure most of you have heard about some of these, there may be others you have not heard about so I thought I would share the list:
- Main UGA Coronavirus Website (UGA’s most authoritative website; updated regularly and includes links to other resources, FAQ, directory of all Arch New announcements, etc.)
- Research Operations during COVID-19 (extensive Q&A about research-related issues)
- OVPI Teaching and Learning Continuity resources (includes links to CTL guide for teaching during disruptions and other online resources)
- Online Learning resources: Rapid Guide to Online Teaching (needs access through ELC) and a place to register with Instructional Designers
- UGA Libraries (includes place where faculty can request articles to be scanned or streamed, as well as place they can request e-books)
Critical UGA IT Services for Business Continuity
Normal University business and classes can be disrupted by events and unforeseen circumstances such as weather, natural disasters, or health concerns. In many cases, faculty and staff may continue to teach and conduct business remotely using technology resources available to everyone at UGA.
Here are some of the tools EITS offers to assist students, faculty and staff in teaching, learning, collaborating and communicating remotely when meeting on campus is not an option: BlackBoard Collaborate Kaltura Zoom vLab Microsoft Office 365 Athena and DegreeWorks Remote Access VPN ArchPass OneSource Systems

Select the printer you want to add to your computer. The printer will now install the drivers and be available for use, just click continue or okay on the prompts that follow.
The Sharp printer is 205supply.grady.uga.edu.

Off Campus Access to Shared Drives
You can access your shared drives from off campus by connecting to the VPN.
The following address will ask you to login with your MYID credentials, and then will attempt to automatically install the Cisco AnyConnect VPN onto your Mac or PC. If that fails, you can download and manually install the VPN via the following link:
https://eits.uga.edu/access_and_security/infosec/tools/vpn/#others
The ArchPass VPN now requires 2 factor authentication by enrollment in ArchPass Duo. To enroll, follow the link below and register.
https://eits.uga.edu/access_and_security/infosec/tools/archpass_duo//archpass_duo_enrollment/
After you are connected via the VPN, you may then access the shared drive by two methods, depending on which operating system you are using.
MacOS:
Click “Go” in the top Menu Bar.
Select “Connect To Server…” at the bottom.
Type in the address of the shared drive you are accessing. You should already have the information if you are using a Mac, and for Windows users it is always the name the drive appears on your File Explorer window.
The address will always begin with smb://gradynas.grady.uga.edu/*
The last portion can be adpr, journalism, EMST, etc.
To save the address to your Mac, you can click the + sign and it will be logged as a favorite. After the address is added, you can then click connect.
You will then be asked to provide your credentials for connecting. Make sure Registered User is selected and type in your MYID for name, without the @uga.edu portion. The drive will then be mounted.
Windows:
Connect to the ArchPass Duo VPN as mentioned above.
After you are connected, Open File Explorer and type the Shared Drive’s address into the address bar.
*Replace the masscomm.msmyid.uga.edu portion of the above screenshot with gradynas.grady.uga.edu*
After adding the address to file explorer and hitting the enter key you will then need to authenticate. For authentication you will use your MYID in this format for the username field:
MYID\*yourMYID*
If you need help with what address to use, please do not hesitate to contact us at gradyhlp@listserv.uga.edu and we will be glad to assist.
