James Buchanan High School
Mercesburg, Pennsylvania
Robert Kennedy once said, "Each time a person stands up for an ideal or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against prejudice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope." Martina Fegan and Sheree Jansen, English teachers at James Buchanan High School, Pennsylvania, had this thought in mind when they coordinated a Holocaust Symposium for their students and the community on November 7, 1996. Three outstanding speakers included Reverend William Harter, an expert on antisemitism; Ralph W. Fink, a liberator of Dachau; and Clara Isaacman, survivor known as "The Living Anne Frank."
Rev. Harter, C. Isaacman,and R. Fink
Reverend Harter opened the Symposium. "Words can make a difference," he said as he explained that one of the roots of anti-Semitism was the belief that the Jews killed Christ. Many Christians today still believe that. "The Holocaust has roots that go all the way back to the first century. Christians need to look at their attitudes and how they were formed." Harter told the audience that the whole story can never be told, even by those who lived it. "It started as an upbeat day. The Germans were on the run and the war would end soon. We didn't know what to expect."
This is how Ralph W. Fink, a liberator of Dachau, described the day he had a chance to see, first-hand, the horrible conditions in the Nazi concentration camp. Mr. Fink's presentation was brief, but very emotional. As a member of the 45th regiment and an infantry machine gunner, his unit was sent to liberate Dachau. They had heard stories, but nothing prepared them for what was in store. The goal was to capture the camp and secure the perimeter. No souvenirs were to be taken. The first things they noticed were the many boxcars full of people who had been deprived of food and water. All 2,000 were dead. The troops' reactions were mixed. Some cursed, some cried. All were in state of shock. Many bodies were piled up in front of the barracks. Mr. Fink's group was to secure the unexplored back position of the camp. He was in such a state of shock that what happened next was vague. In the back of the camp they found people too weak to go to the main gate. All had deep, sunken eyes and weighed about 65 pounds. Many crawled out. One man tried to walk but fell every few steps. It was an overpowering experience.
Mr. Fink concluded his speech with a letter to liberators written by Elie Wiesel, Nobel Peace Prize winner and author of the memoir, Night. In the letter, Elie gave thanks to all who had liberated the concentration camps.
Clara Issacman's childhood was like any normal child's until Hitler invaded Belgium in 1942. After that, Clara was forced to wear the Star of David. German soldiers even pushed and picked on her when she would walk to school. She was so embarrassed that whenever she walked, she would use her school books to cover up her star. It was not that she was ashamed of being Jewish; it was because she was afraid. One day German soldiers came into her home and wanted to see her parents' passports. The Germans were not taking Rumanian Jews, so her family was spared that night. With the help of her sister's Christian music teacher, she and her family went into hiding for two and a half years, hiding in eighteen different locations.
On the day of liberation, Clara walked outside to take her first breath of fresh air in more than two years. She fainted. Today, Clara lives in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She is a mother and a teacher. While Clara still has scars from her experiences of the Holocaust, she lives her life day-by-day knowing she survived it.

The Marietta Fire Department participated Friday in hazmat training.
This week was the department's annual refresher for handling hazardous materials.
The group started the day in the classroom and by the afternoon, they were getting their hands dirty.
The training course uses different models and puzzles to help firefighters break down the situation and communicate efficiently.
"One of the things with hazardous material response we are fortunate that the frequency isn't there, but the risk is very high or potentially can be high, so the training, it's a key issue to keep it sharp so they can function in that situation," says Ed Burns, an instructor from Cleveland State University.
Burns says this is very important for the firefighters, especially the hands-on portion.
Law requires a minimum of eight hours of training per year.

I've driven to Vegas in my 60 6 times, and even I don't have a problem. If you want to conserve, drop your speed on the climb and open it up on the downhill. Should save you about 20% range.
Burt Court,
Please report back on how it goes. Do you have the 60 or 85?
Within the next few weeks I plan to make this my first trip, and am very interested to see how you do.
I have the P85 and can charge to 303 miles, but I also like to drive at least 75 mph. How fast will you be driving?
If you can let us know how the Barstow charging station works out?
Are you staying at a hotel that has a charging port, or will you use Tersla's before you head back?
I have the S85, 66 days old. I will hold the speed down to 75 with diligent use of cruise control, but refuse to use slow lane unless you come up to pass me. If all works well, will move up to usual LV to LA speeds back to Barstow. Will report back here over the week-end.
If this post get buried, can you e-mail me your results?
I am making the trip tomorrow. Unfortunately my MS wont be delivered until next week so I will be in my F150 Supercrew 4x4 instead. Actually should get 20+mpg with 6 people thanks to the ecoboost engine, but I can't wait for the Tesla. If I see any Tesla's on the side of the road I can stop and help...
After a day or two (for the bots to get around to it), Volkerize.com uses Google search to find any word combos on the site, so you can find this again, easy. If necessary, stick a post in here with an unusual word to search for, like sesquipedalian.
Oh, I just did! ;)
Tks, look forward to hear you trip results.
I've driven LA to LV and back twice. Barstow SC and the LV SC both work great. Only concern I had was a 20 mph wind coming straight at me LV to Barstow. Cruise control at 65 until Baker and I had plenty left so it was 75 mph from Baker to Barstow and I arrived with about 40 range. Easy peaty.
Were you driving a 60 or 85?
Burt, good luck tomorrow!
85. I charged to about 250 at the LV SC and drove very conservatively until Baker. If I had a 60, I might have stopped at the Level 2 charger at Whiskey Pete's at Stateline. But it's also very possible a 60 could have made Barstow by slowing to 60.
Why didn't you charge it full to 300?
Have some of the data and specs for the Vegas round trip if anyone cares...
Yes @Burt. Please post!
I'll bet he's talking rated ie~265, not ideal, miles. Those last few take a long time to load.
Burt, give up the goods, we want every last detail......
And how much did you win/lose at the tables Burt? I got a baaaaaaad feeling.
Never have payed attention to these stats before but here goes:
Rancho Cucamonga to the top of Cajon Pass, used 530 W/mi, to Barstow leveled out to 353 W/Mi. Drove 78 MPH, no A/C. (Tried going 75, to dangerous, was afraid I'd get run off the road) Charged to 225 miles at Barstow and averaged 396 W/Mi to Las Vegas SC where I charged at a rate of 320 Mi/Hr at 380V, 158A. Only charged to 200 miles for return to Barstow. BIG MISTAKE! Baker grade and A/C killed me, got to Barstow offramp at zero (0). Extreme case of range anxiety. Note to self: Plan better next time, speed/wind/steep up hills, and learn alternate charging stops
Being only a week into my car, I really don't understand the W numbers.
How many miles was it from Ranch Cucamonga to Barstow, and what did you have left when you rolled in?
How many miles did you have left when you got to the LV SC, and finally, since you have the 85, if you had charged a full charge in Vegas, would have made it to Barstow no problem?
The only place you can stop on the way to Barstow from Vegas is Primm, and that is a level 2 station, but an extra 28 miles for an hour of shopping could ease the nerves. I think that I will plan to do that.
RC to Barstow is only 72 miles, but the Cajon Pass is fairly steep. I recharged to 224 miles there and had 30 miles when I got to LV. Should have charged more before leaving LV, or topped off at Whiskey Petes, but didn't think I needed to. All future trips will include some method of overnite charging at either friends, hotel or motel etc. Also learned that driving under 75 on most open freeways is unreasonable and really cuts into range planning.
Am in Vegas. Averaged 70 mph from LA to Vegas and used 274Wh/m. Charged to 196 in Barstow and arrived with 28 miles in north Las Vegas.
I'm convinced the MS60 is 15% more efficient to start. I again employed a technique of dropping speed 5-10mph on steep climbs and opened up the speed (by coasting in neutral) on the downhills.
Downhill speeds averaged 80-85mph. Used regen when speed got too high.
SamO said: "I again employed a technique of dropping speed 5-10mph on steep climbs and opened up the speed (by coasting in neutral) on the downhills."
How long were these climbs and descents?
For small hills, I think it's a good idea to coast downhill, picking up speed, and then to use that extra speed, rather than electricity from the battery, to help you up the next hill. So you speed up going downhill and slow down going uphill.
But, on long descents, the car will not keep picking up speed forever, because air resistance is higher at higher speeds. If you let the car coast downhill at constant speed, limited by air resistance, you're wasting the energy that you could have recovered by using regeneration to limit yourself to a slower speed.
I used to use this same technique going to and from Vegas in my Lexus, and really increased my gas mileage. I will use it again in my MS.
@Bighorn is correct. I only look at rated miles. 250 was not totally full but after 250 it goes really slow. I thought 250 would be enough so I stopped. I think 100% full is only about 265.
@SamO thanks for the tip on coasting. I've now used it a few times successfully. You have to watch out on really steep downhills, but on moderate ones it's pretty cool.
All of the climbs, total, between Barstow and Vegas are less than 25 miles. Several are very steep 6%+ grades.
The car will continue to pick up speed greater than 93mph. I usually prefer coasting but in those circumstances, for safety, I will engage drive and allow motor braking/ regen to recharge the battery rather than risking an unsafe speed. You are wasting a small amount if energy (yes it is wasted) but traffic, police and general safety are real world considerations.
@sterling & golftoday. Please report back on your coasting results.
I should have mentioned that I employed the same technique from LA to Barstow and was able to average 243Wh/m over 126 miles. But my average speed was only 67mph.
Sterlingllc1 said: "I used to use this same technique going to and from Vegas in my Lexus, and really increased my gas mileage."
I assume the Lexus didn't have regenerative braking. In that case, there's no reason not to coast downhill, as fast as you want to, for as long as you want to.
SamO said: "All of the climbs, total, between Barstow and Vegas are less than 25 miles. Several are very steep 6%+ grades."
The important thing, I think, is how long each downhill stretch is, separately. Is it short enough that the car, if coasting in neutral, is still speeding up when it reaches the bottom?
SamO said: "The car will continue to pick up speed greater than 93mph. I usually prefer coasting but in those circumstances, for safety, I will engage drive and allow motor braking/ regen to recharge the battery rather than risking an unsafe speed. You are wasting a small amount if energy (yes it is wasted) but traffic, police and general safety are real world considerations."
Ignoring air resistance, regenerative braking wastes some energy compared to letting the car speed up downhill. But air resistance causes the car to speed up less than it otherwise would, and that wastes energy too. So the question is, which wastes more energy?
Coasting on a long downhill stretch, the car will eventually stop speeding up, its speed limited by air resistance. After that point, all the energy that you could have gotten from the rest of the downhill stretch will be wasted, used up in overcoming air resistance. On the other hand, if you use regenerative braking to limit yourself to a low speed, you get to recover energy from the entire downhill stretch. Not all of the available energy, granted, but some fraction of it.
So, for a long descent, it pays to use regenerative braking for most of it and only switch to coasting near the end.
I should say that this is all theoretical -- I don't have a Model S to try it on -- and of course you should believe the actual numbers that you get in practice. But knowing the theory may help when trying to interpret real-world data.
Haven't done the math but based gradient, wind and accessory load there is always speed at which the @88% efficient regen is a better option. Since gradient changes a lot so does the optimized speed. My swag is that it is between 65-80 mph for most freeway grades.

U of L's Russ Smith, #2, center, gets tripped up as he tries to squeeze between Villanova's Tony Chennault, #5, left, and JayVaughn Pinkston, #22, during the Big East Tournament at Madison Square Garden. Mar. 14, 2013 / Sam Upshaw Jr.; The Courier-Journal
NEW YORK — University of Louisville walk-on Michael Baffour threw on his headphones and pressed �play� on his mp3 player while Russ Smith took his customary seat beside him in the back of the team bus.
Baffour didn�t notice anything wrong until Montrezl Harrell tapped him, and he yanked off the headphones to the sound of Smith crying as the bus navigated through Manhattan traffic.
�Nobody cries like that unless it�s like a death,� Baffour said. �I knew in an instant.�
Smith said he had called his old high school, Archbishop Molloy, as he always does when he�s in New York. He was checking to see if coach Jack Curran and a few others could make the Cardinals� quarterfinal game against Villanova.
It was then he learned that Curran had died early Thursday morning.
�He was everything to me and to my mom, my family,� Smith said. �� He taught me a lot of things � phrases, quotes � and one of the main ones was, �The road to success is always under construction.� And I�ll keep that.�
Smith looked like a finished product in the Cardinals� 74-55 victory over Villanova in the Big East Tournament quarterfinals. His game-high 28 points were the second-most he�s scored this season and tied Edgar Sosa for the most by a U of L player in the Big East Tournament.
�This win is definitely dedicated to Jack, especially from me, and today will always be Coach Curran Day in my life,� Smith said.
U of L avenged yet another loss from earlier this season, winning the second meeting with Syracuse, Notre Dame and now Villanova. They earned a rubber match in tonight�s semifinals with Notre Dame, which beat Marquette 73-65.
During the Cards� 73-64 loss at Villanova on Jan. 22, Smith tied his season low by shooting 2 for 13 from the field, including 0 for 4 from 3-point range.
He erased those memories early en route to making 7 of 12 shots, including four 3-pointers.
�He was brilliant because he passed the ball, he played awesome defense, he got after them,� U of L coach Rick Pitino said. �And he shot the ball well, made great decisions, even when a couple of his turnovers were pivoting and trying to get people the ball.�
But the Brooklyn native�s start seemed to presage another struggle against the Wildcats.
After a steal, Smith went flying toward the basket and was sent crashing to the floor on a hard foul by Tony Chennault. He hobbled to the line and gathered himself enough to make both free throws but was taken out 30 seconds later.
Smith had his ankle retaped by trainer Fred Hina and re-entered the game about three minutes later.
It took a while before the Cards� leading scorer got going, but after Nova cut a 10-point deficit to three, he heated up with a 3-pointer. He later assisted on Peyton Siva�s 3-pointer as U of L reeled off eight straight points to lead 30-19.
Siva, who was the Big East Tournament Most Outstanding Player last year, proved he likes Broadway just as much as Smith. The senior was 3 of 6 from 3-point range, which makes him 7 of 15 since missing all eight attempts at Syracuse.
�It�s March, man, this is when I�ve got to turn it up,� said Siva, who had 10 points, four assists and three of the Cards� 12 steals. �This is when it�s most important. The regular season is the regular season. This is when you have to show what you�re made of. The lights are turned up.�
Smith and Siva combined for seven of the Cards� 10 threes. U of L is now 7-0 when it makes at least eight 3-pointers.
Villanova, considered by many to be on the NCAA Tournament bubble, didn�t look like a tournament team throughout the first half. The Wildcats (20-13) committed 18 turnovers in the first 20 minutes and finished with 25.
�I really thought playing St. John�s would prepare us better,� coach Jay Wright said. �As good as St. John�s was in their press, these guys were another level.�
U of L also defended the 3-point line better than it did in the loss at Villanova. The Wildcats shot 7 of 15 from 3-point range at home but just 2 of 12 in this one.
�I just told Russ we have to play this tournament and the NCAA for Coach Curran,� Pitino said. �Coach Curran really enjoyed coaching Russ, and I really enjoy coaching Russ, but we both knew what he was all about. So it�s very exciting that Russ could have that type of game and honor his coach like that.�

|Acetaminophen protects against iron-induced cardiac damage in gerbils.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 17311866 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|There are few effective agents that safely remove excess iron from iron-overloaded individuals. Our goal was to evaluate the iron-removing effectiveness of acetaminophen given ip or orally in the gerbil iron-overload model. Male gerbils were divided into 5 groups: saline controls, iron-overloaded controls, iron-overloaded treated with ip acetaminophen, iron-overloaded treated with oral acetaminophen, and iron-overloaded treated with ipdeferoxamine. Iron dextran was injected iptwice/wk for 8 wk. Acetaminophen and deferoxamine treatments were given on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays during the same 8 wk and continued for 4 wk after completion of iron-overloading. Echocardiograms were performed after completion of the iron-overloading and drug treatments. Liver and cardiac iron contents were determined by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). Iron-overloaded controls had 232-fold and 16-fold increases in liver and cardiac iron content, respectively, compared to saline controls. In iron-overloaded controls, echocardiography showed cardiac hypertrophy, right and left ventricular distension, significant reduction in left ventricular ejection fraction (-22%), and fractional shortening (-31%) during systole. Treatments with acetaminophen (ip or oral) or deferoxamine (ip) were equally effective in reducing cardiac iron content and in preventing cardiac structural and functional changes. Both agents also significantly reduced excess hepatic iron content, although acetaminophen was less effective than deferoxamine. The results suggest that acetaminophen may be useful for treatment of iron-induced pathology.

One of the fastest and easiest ways to improve your WordPress blog is to activate a plugin. Plugins are modules that extend the functionality of WordPress. There are thousands of developers who build plugins that anyone can use to improve the look, feel and functionality of their sites. There's a plugin for everything. Most are free and can be implemented with little hassle. You don't need to code or anything like that for most of them – just install, activate and it's done.
Over the years I have tested and used many of the best WordPress plugins. Installing essential plugins is one of the first things I do after starting a new blog. This article features the list of plugins that I find most useful. It includes some of the most downloaded plugins ever. First of all a quick guide on installing a plugin for the first time.
How to install a WordPress plugin
First thing first. Let's have a look at how you can install a plugin. WordPress makes it very simply not only to install and test but also to delete a plugin you do not find useful.
Do explore the plugin section of your WordPress admin (just click on Plugins in the left hand sidebar). When you find a plugin that you want to try out, click on the name, "Install" and "Activate". Most plugins will work out of the box as soon as you activate them. Some will need you to go through the "Settings" section in order to be setup.
Quality signs to look for are plugins with high number of downloads, regular and recent updates and good reviews. In order to keep your WordPress blog as safe and secure as possible it is recommended not to download plugins from other sources other than the official WordPress directory.
Here's a quick step-by-step guide on installing a WordPress plugin:
- In "Plugins" in left hand sidebar click on "Add New".
- This leads you to an overview of featured plugins. Up in the top navigation you can also select "Popular" (most downloaded plugins), "Recommended" (according to the other plugins you have installed) and "Favorites" (any plugin that you have marked as favorite).
- Alternatively in the top right you can actually use the search box to search for the name of the plugin you want to install.
- For each plugin there is a quick overview with plugin name, brief description, number of downloads, the user rating and last updated date. Learn more about a specific plugin by clicking on "More details". Also make sure that the plugin has the check that it is compatible with your WordPress version.
- If you're happy with a plugin and want to test it, install it by clicking on "Install Now" button.
- Click on "Ok" in the popup window to finish the install process.
- When the installation is complete, click on "Activate Plugin".
- This is it. The new plugin is now activated and live. If you want you can find the settings of the plugin in your navigation and customize it.
- If you wish to delete a plugin go into the "Plugins" section again and click on "Installed Plugins" for an overview of all plugins you have installed. Click on "Deactivate" in case the plugin is activated. Then click on "Delete" to remove the plugin files. On the next page, click on "Yes, delete these files". That's it.
Mo plugins mo problems?
A word of warning before we proceed with the list of most useful WordPress plugins. Adding too many plugins can make your site heavy and slow to load. Make sure you only use plugins that are necessary in order to achieve a better usability and user experience. Do not go overboard. Keep it simple. Keep an eye on the speed and performance. If a plugin is not what you expected or you no longer use it, just click on "Deactivate" and "Delete" the plugin. There's even a plugin that will help you identify plugins that slow your site down – see it further down in this list. For more ways to speed up your WordPress site take a look here.
Now let's get started with a list of best WordPress plugins that you should check out:
The more popular your site is, the more spam comments you will get. This plugin will help you save a lot of time. It checks your comments to see if they look like spam or not. For more advice on spam protection see here.
Comment Redirect
Redirect your first time commenters to a page of your choice. Thank them. Ask them to subscribe to you. This can help turn a first-time visitor into a fan. Alternative to this is Thank Me Later that sends a 'thank you' email to your commenters.
Subscribe To Comments Reloaded
Allows commenters to tick a box before commenting and get e-mail notification of further comments. This helps foster a community around your site by encouraging commenters to come back and stay engaged in the conversation.
Encourage more comments by rewarding your visitors by automatically placing a link to their last post at the end of their comment. This works especially well if your visitors are running sites themselves.
You can even switch from WordPress comments system to something else. Disqus arguably allows better subscription opportunities, better login integration with social media, extra moderation options and can even feature related articles and discussions. I use it on my site.
Contact Form 7
If you need a contact form on your site, this plugin is simple to setup and works great. A super simplified alternative of this is Super Simple Contact Form.
WP Greet Box
Display a different greeting message to your visitor depending on which site they are coming from.
What Would Seth Godin Do
Allows you to display a specific message to your new, first time visitors only.
Google Analytics
This plugin makes it easy for you to insert your Google Analytics code and start tracking your visitors. Learn more about Analytics and how data helps your site here.
This plugin offers many features and is created by the Automattic team. One of them is simple and concise stats tool. They also do infinite scroll, contact forms, mobile responsive theme, antispam, social sharing, related posts and many more.
Search Meter
This tracks what your visitors search for in your "search" field. You can know what your visitors are looking for and what they find. Can help you make your design more usable and give you some topic ideas to cover.
W3 Total Cache
It dramatically improves the speed by using cache as well as minify and content delivery network (CDN). It helps your server handle a higher load without crashing, which can help in case you hit front page of Reddit.com and start getting tons of traffic. I use it on my site.
Allows you to clean up and optimize your database to make it run better. You can also remove all your post revisions automatically.
WP Smush.it
This plugin reduces your image files size automatically and makes your site faster and easier to load. EWWW Image Optimizer is an alternative to this.
P3 Profiler
It measures the plugin impact on your page load. Install it to identify plugins that make your site slow to load.
BJ Lazy Load
For image heavy sites. Only load images that are in the browser's view (i.e. above the fold) and load the rest only as the visitor scrolls down the page.
On-demand backup. It can also backup in an automated schedule. It allows you to save the database backup to your computer, in the cloud or get it sent via email.
Broken Link Checker
When you start posting frequently, you will soon have so many posts and pages that it will be hard to manually check them one by one. This plugin automatically checks all your content and informs you of any broken links.
WordPress Importer
Imports posts, pages, comments, custom fields, categories, tags and more from a WordPress.com export file into your self-hosted site. See more on this process here.
Manages 301 redirections and keeps track of 404 errors in a very simple interface without you needing access or experience with .htaccess files.
A user, role, and content management tool that makes WordPress a more powerful CMS. It is especially useful for multi-author sites.
Search and Replace
This one can save you a lot of time. For example if you have moved the domain name and now want to change all the internal links throughout your site. This plugin makes it a one-click process. Alternative to this is Velvet Blues Update URL's.
Simple Social Icons
A simple and nice looking font driven social icons widget that allows you to place links to your social media profiles in your sidebar.
Social Sharing By Danny
Sharing buttons done in simple and lightweight way without using any external scripts making them very quick to load. Includes Twitter, Facebook and Google+. Jetpack by WordPress plugin that I mentioned earlier in the post has a good alternative to this with more networks if you need that. Another good alternative is Mashshare which allows you to display total count of all shares Mashable style.
Pinterest Pin It Button For Images
Displays a Pin It button directly over your images and helps you drive traffic from Pinterest. Perfect for sites that feature great imagery (fashion, travel, food blogs).
Better Click To Tweet
Allows you to insert "click to tweet" boxes into your content and prompt your visitors to share more of your posts on Twitter.
Social Locker
When used for PDF reports and similar, it can help increase your social media presence by making your visitors tweet, plus one, or Facebook like in order to get access to the content.
WordPress SEO by Yoast
A good SEO solution. It combines what two of the most popular plugins ever used to do: helps you optimize your on-page SEO (META Title, Description and Keywords) and generates a XML sitemap for search engines to easier find and index your content. I use it on my site.
Adds a more advanced paging navigation interface.
Custom Sidebars
Create your own custom widgetized areas and sidebars. Allows you to pick on which pages a certain sidebar should show.
WordPress Notification Bar
A quick and easy notification bar and call to action for the top of your site.
Fancier Author Box
Give more identity to your single or multi-author website with nice looking author box at the end of posts.
Q2W3 Fixed Widget
Allows you to put in a sticky widget in your sidebar so it scrolls through with the visitor and you never have any empty space in your sidebar. I use it on my site.
For all you running multilingual blogs and sites. This plugin makes the process of having multiple version of your content in different languages very simple and user-friendly.
NextGEN Gallery
A full integrated image gallery with dozens of options and features.
Instead of splitting your pages with pagination you can allow your visitors to keep scrolling continuously while your site loads more and more of your articles. You see this in action in your Facebook newsfeed, in Twitter feed and in Google image search results. Updated version of this plugin is available through Jetpack that I mentioned above.
Lets you insert notes in your article to make parts of your text stand out more.

HP rolls out fast photo, all-in-one printers
updated 11:30 am EDT, Thu June 21, 2007
HP Printers Summer 2007
Matching its camera releases, HP on Thursday expanded its Photosmart printers with two photo-oriented models and a full all-in-one unit. The D7260 and D7460 draw on six inks to print a 4-inch by 6-inch photo at full quality as quickly as 10 seconds, HP estimates. Standard images can also print at a rate of 34 pages per minute in black and white and only slightly slower at 33 pages per minute in color. Each also has a 3.5-inch touchscreen for basic PC-free image editing and a multi-format card reader for loading photos directly from a camera. The D7260 ships in August for $149; the premium D7460 adds Ethernet and wireless networking and launches at the same time for $179.
The Photosmart C5280 in turn is built for those printing to multiple formats and who also need copying or scanning. As a printer, the all-in-one inkjet can output up to 32 pages per minute in black-and-white or 24 in color, and supports writing labels directly to compatible CDs and DVDs. It also adds support for newer, high-capacity HP ink cartridges that last longer per tank. Scanning occurs at 4800x4800 DPI in 48-bit color and is optimized to 4800x1200 when used strictly as a copier. A smaller 2.4-inch screen provides navigation and photo editing when printing images from the integrated card reader.
The C5280 ships earliest of all three models, reaching stores this month at $149.
