 Observing Specialists: B.Ketzeback, J.Davenport
 Another night of cloudy skies and poor weather. Radar returns in the
 borders of Otero County kept us closed all night.
 We did a shakedown of the new version of the TUI enclosure widget and
 checked that a fix of the SPIcam sky flat script was changing exposure
 time as expected. The rest of the night we worked on training for Jim
 and a training guide/outline for the Observing Specialists.
