Homestead House Surroundings
Homestead House is nestled in a grove of windbreak trees and shrubs-- cottonwoods, elm, pine, juniper, lilac, plum, roses-- that John Hasselstrom and previous owners planted in the 1940s and 1950s. Linda and Jerry have been adding others-- currants, chokecherries, buffalo berries. And a few of the older trees have come down after being stressed by drought, pine beetles and wind storms.
On warm afternoons, pine sap flows, its sharp scent mingling with the smells of a working ranch provided by the cattle resting and drinking in nearby corrals. Sniff for the heady odor of newly mown hay-- or perhaps hay that's newly digested. Much of the ranch work is done at the headquarters of the lessee, several miles away, but cattle pastured on Linda's land often move through these corrals.
Cattle east of the Homestead House yard.
The cattle aren't dangerous, and you may observe them through the corral fences and while walking in the pastures. But please don't make sudden overly-flamboyant movements or try to enter the corrals. Cattle can be startled by strangers and might stampede through fences.
And please do not attempt to determine if cow-tipping is a myth or the truth. Perhaps somewhere a cow has been tipped while sleeping, but trust Linda on this-- it wasn't a wild range cow.

Homestead House History
Linda writes:
Homestead House was the new home that John Hasselstrom built for his wife Mildred (my mother) after they were married in May, 1952. The house was built in 1952-53 by Bill Jefferson and his son Ted, and some other men, all from Rapid City-- I seem to remember that two of the carpenters' names were Glenn Bradford and his brother Oliver. I believe Glenn worked on the carving of Mt. Rushmore.
My mother found the house plans in a newspaper article: one of those "build this house" features, and my parents modified it somewhat: putting deep shelves between the dining room and living room, for example, instead of the fireplace shown in the plan.
Mother was particularly proud of the knotty pine paneling on the outside of the living room, facing the driveway-- but South Dakota weather proved too harsh for keeping the shellacked look attractive, and it was eventually painted over.
Winter of 1953. A view of the barn, corrals, some out-buildings, and Homestead House (far right).
My father, John, dug pickup loads of rich bottom land soil from our ranch land along Battle Creek in Hermosa and hauled it home to create flower beds along the front of the house. But mother also liked dogs and cats, and their digging always made it hard for her to grow flowers.
Father also planted the rows of lilacs, juniper, and pine trees on the north and west sides of the house to provide wind protection.
The other out-buildings-- the barn, the older garage, the chicken house now known as the Red Shed, and various other buildings-- were already in place. Father spent hours tearing down a couple of dozen A-shaped shelters where a previous owner had raised pigs in one of the corrals.
The same view in 2007.
When Linda moved back to the ranch after she received her Masters Degree, an apartment addition was built onto the east side of the house for Linda and her husband.
Linda lived in that apartment until she and George built Windbreak House about a quarter mile away, on a rise to the west.
After Linda's father died and her mother moved to a retirement home in the early 1990s, the house was rented to a young ranch couple who work for a neighboring rancher. Many Windbreak House retreat participants became familiar with "Riley," the black-spotted dog belonging to the renters. Riley often accompanied people on their hikes or came to Windbreak House hoping for table-scrap treats.
By 2001 the renters' family had expanded to include three children, so the apartment addition on the east side of the house was remodeled, adding another bathroom, laundry room, and separate bedroom. Linda also had new wiring, plumbing, attic insulation, and a new septic system installed for the house at that time.
And that painted pine paneling on the outside wall was covered with metal siding to protect it from the harsh South Dakota weather.

Homestead House Photo-Tour
Scroll down rapidly through the photos to get the general flavor of the house and grounds. Or read the text for descriptions and a story or two. Text and photos are being added periodically. Keep checking for more details or send us an e-mail if you have a question about the accommodations.
Welcome to Homestead House.
The kitchen porch entry and the parking area.
Homestead House was built in 1952-53, and has had an addition put on since then, creating a second bathroom and a third bedroom. Extensive plumbing and wiring updates have been done over the years and a new septic system was installed in 2002.
The house has a small kitchen, a large living room with a dining area at one end, hardwood floors in much of the house, and a concrete-block basement under the addition.
Propane provides hot water and fires the furnace when necessary. There is no air-conditioning but we have many electric fans, including a ceiling fan in the living room, and the house is well-shaded by trees.
Homestead House has three bedrooms-- called Eagle, Dragonfly, and Meadowlark. Each writer will occupy a private room, assigned by Linda, fully furnished with a bed, reading chair, and desk.
The two bathrooms are shared, with storage space provided for your personal supplies. One bathroom has a tub with a shower, the other has a walk-in shower.
All bedroom and bathroom linens (sheets, pillows, blankets, towels) are furnished. We also stock daily necessities (toilet paper, paper towels, tissues) and some emergency supplies of gear we expect guests to provide for themselves. If you forget your toothbrush or shampoo, just ask.
Homestead House supplies everything you need to make you feel at home, including the kitchen sink.
The Kitchen
Each guest is responsible for providing her own food, and preparing and cleaning up after her meals.
The kitchen is fully equipped with dishes, silverware, pots and pans, cooking utensils, a gas stove/oven, a fridge with a freezer compartment, a microwave, a coffee maker, dish soap and linens. Some basic cooking supplies, such as flour, sugar, cooking oil and spices are supplied as well.
Don't you just love that vintage gold vinyl counter top?
Ranch water is safe (tested yearly) but hard, and some folks dislike the high iron and the sulfur smell. Homestead House keeps bottled water on hand, in the kitchen and bathrooms, for your use.
Other beverages to bring include your own special brand of coffee or tea, milk, fruit or vegetable juices, and your favorite soda pop. Because refrigerator space may be limited if more than one writer is in residence, small or single-serving containers (though more expensive) may be a wiser choice.
Moderate alcohol use, with respect for others, is absolutely acceptable.
Cook your meals on the propane stove or in the oven.
If you plan to buy your groceries just before arriving at Homestead House, you may prefer to look for grocery stores in either Rapid City or Hot Springs. The Town of Hermosa now has a small grocery store, but selection is limited, especially for fresh vegetables, fruit, and meats, and many items are reduced-price scratch-and-dent. The two local gas station convenience stores carry some groceries as well, but prices are high and selection is limited.
Pots, pans, knives, other cooking utensils, a coffee maker, and a teakettle are supplied. Homestead House also stocks basic spices and other cooking staples.
Easy-to-prepare meals leave you more time for your writing, but some people like to relax and recharge their creativity by puttering in the kitchen.
You can microwave a quick snack
and get back to your writing.
Bring along some snack foods such as nuts, dried fruit, chips, popcorn, crackers or cookies for that afternoon or midnight break.
And don�t forget the chocolate!
The table is used for eating and meetings.
The Dining Room
The dining room is between the kitchen and the living room. The drop-leaf table is usually set up for four but can be turned and extended to seat up to ten people.
The table is often used for writing discussion and is an ideal spot to spread out a manuscript between meals.
Who needs TV when you have these picture windows?
The Living Room
The large windows in the Homestead House living room give a view of the windbreak that shelters the house on the north and west sides.
Watch for the resident Great Horned owls who nest in the area, the occasional sage grouse that come to eat juniper berries, or the plain old robins that appreciate it when you remember to fill the bird-bath every day.
Extra-deep eaves above the west-facing picture window and the windbreak trees to the west keep the afternoon sun from beating in and over-heating the house in the summer.
The futon couch in the living room offers firm seating while you browse through some of the books in the Homestead House library.
Most of Linda�s personal, and eclectic, research library is available for your use. Please replace books where you found them and if you take a book outside, remember wind and rain can occur suddenly, especially on hot, summer days.
Linda will point out where the various collections of books may be found during the orientation meeting on day one of your retreat.
This large futon couch in the living room flattens out to make a queen-sized bed when a small group comes to Homestead House and out-numbers the more private beds.
And yet more seating in another corner of the living room.
In addition to the work space in your bedroom, Homestead House offers many other places for you sit and write-- the easy chairs and love-seat in the living room, the dining room table, the garden house, or the scattered chairs out under the trees surrounding the house.
Cushions for the outdoor chairs are kept in the living room closet.
Portable lap desks may be found in the living room and in each bedroom.
Eagle bedroom windows look south and east.
Eagle Bedroom
Why is it called "Eagle"?
The artwork in the bedrooms inspired the names originally. When the retreat accommodations moved from Windbreak House to Homestead House in 2008, the names-- and artwork-- moved as well.
But now Eagle lives up to its name even more: a bald eagle visits occasionally in the winter and perches in a dead cottonwood tree southeast of Homestead House. Where's the best view of that tree? Yep. Right from Eagle bedroom.
The room has a full-size bed with plenty of pillows so you can get nice and comfy as you read in bed. Adjust the swing-arm lamp above the bed to get the perfect lighting.
Eagle has a small wooden desk for your laptop or your legal tablet (does anyone still use those?).
A soft recliner chair awaits you in the corner if reading in bed seems too decadent.
Although extra bedding and foam sleeping pads are stored in the large closet, there is still plenty of room for you to stow your suitcase and hang up your clothes if you desire.
The view south from Eagle.
As you work at the desk in Eagle bedroom, you may look to the south and see the blacksmith and wood-working shop (at the right); the roof of the root cellar (center, foreground); and a cattle shelter on the edge of the corrals (center, background).
The unhappy pine tree in the center came down in a storm last fall-- I will post an updated photo soon.
Dragonfly bedroom has windows that look north and east.
Dragonfly Bedroom
Why is it called "Dragonfly"?
The artwork in the bedrooms inspired the names originally. When the retreat accommodations moved from Windbreak House to Homestead House in 2008, the names-- and artwork-- moved as well.
So far, however, we have no actual dragonfly encounters to go with this room's name. Perhaps you'll be the one to stay here, connect with a dragonfly, and write the story for this website.
Dragonfly has a twin-sized bed with a swing-arm reading lamp above it. We supply plenty of pillows (though you're welcome to bring your own favorite) so you can enjoy one of the great pleasures of life: reading in bed.
The room has a small wooden desk for your laptop computer. If you need more flat work-space, you will find a folding table in the closet.
Feel free to rock in Linda's grandma's antique wooden rocking chair. It's good and sturdy.
Though the large closet holds some archived material, there is still room for you to stow your suitcase and hang up your clothes if you desire.
The view to the north.
Both Dragonfly and Meadowlark bedrooms have a view to the north.
A windbreak of trees and shrubs-- mostly juniper trees-- shelter Homestead House and its yard from the cold north winds of winter.
In the warmer months those same trees offer lovely shade and we have various outdoor seating all around the yard.
In this photo you can see a dual patio chair near the little metal shed that holds some gardening supplies.
The view to the east.
Both Dragonfly and Meadowlark bedrooms have a view to the east.
Perhaps you can pick out the green and red "Wall-o-Water" protectors around Linda's tomato garden at the far right of this photo.
You may also notice how much mowed, green lawn surrounds the house. We do not water the grass. This photo was taken in the spring in a particularly wet year-- often the grass turns tawny by mid-summer. Nor do we use any pesticide or herbicide. Once you meet this lawn up close and personal, you can study its diversity that isn't apparent from the photo.
We keep the grass mowed short to create a fire-break around the house. Prairie fires, though not frequent, are a possibility much of the year in this region.
Short grass also makes it easier to see-- and avoid!-- the very rare rattlesnake that should always be at the back of your mind as you hike in southwestern South Dakota.
Meadowlark bedroom windows face north and east.
Meadowlark Bedroom
Why is it called "Meadowlark"?
Linda chose this name to honor the birds that welcome spring to the prairie with their distinctive song.
Meadowlarks usually return to the area about March 21st-- usually just in time for a wet spring snowstorm. They start singing a day or so after they arrive, as the males stake out their breeding territories. By early June the singing is tapering off, so if you want to experience their prairie arias, schedule your time at Homestead House accordingly.
Meadowlark is the largest of the three bedrooms. It has a twin bed and a futon couch that folds out into a full-size bed. You won't be expected to share the bedroom unless you come with a group of four or more.
As always, a swing-arm lamp gives plenty of reading light at the bed and we have an abundance of pillows for your comfort.
Meadowlark has a small wooden desk at the north window. Or you can kick back in the easy chair in the corner.
Alas, the fireplace cannot be used due to a crack in the chimney.
The Stairwell of Fame.
The Basement
The basement of Homestead House is used mostly for storage. It is reached by a stairwell in Meadowlark bedroom.
Some of Linda's many awards, as well as some artwork and other items, line the stairwell. Feel free to take a look, though please ask permission to enter Meadowlark bedroom first, if a writer is in residence.
Use the basement in the event of a severe storm or tornado. The NOAA weather radio will alert you if severe weather threatens, but be sure to keep an eye to the sky. Storms can blow up suddenly as they crest the Black Hills and head east towards Homestead House.
If we have an exceptionally hot day Linda may set up work space in the cool basement. So far, Homestead House has kept a pleasant temperature as long as the house is aired out at night and then windows and shades are closed against the heat first thing in the morning.
For more about the NOAA weather radio and how to make use of "country air-conditioning," see the article below titled
Weather on the Prairie.
A writing discussion in the east yard just outside Homestead House.
The Great Outdoors
In addition to the work space in your bedroom, Homestead House offers many other places for you sit and read, write or talk-- the easy chairs and love-seat in the living room, the dining room table, the garden house, or the scattered chairs out under the trees surrounding the house.
Cushions for the outdoor chairs are kept in the living room closet.
Portable lap desks may be found in each bedroom and in the living room.
If you take books, papers, your laptop, or other things outside, remember wind and rain can occur suddenly, especially on hot, summer days.

Homestead House Accessibility
All the rooms in Homestead House (except the basement) are on one level. However there are a few steps up at each of the entry points into the house and, because the house was built in the 1950s, some of the doorways are narrower than the 3-foot standard of today, which could cause problems with walkers and wheelchairs.
We try to make each retreat guest as comfortable as possible during their stay. If you have questions about getting around Homestead House, please ask.
Main Entry Door
This is the main entry-- the door closest to the parking area. It leads into the small utility room adjoining the kitchen.
There is a short concrete walkway from the gravel parking to the south kitchen porch and a few steps up to enter the house.
West Door
This is technically the "front" door of the house, which opens into the living room. Some years ago the driveway was relocated so this door has become a side door.
There are fewer steps up at this door, but the second one-- from the concrete porch into the house-- is a bit of a stretch.
Although there is a concrete walkway at this door, it does not lead to the parking area. But it's a great place to sit for morning shade or afternoon sun.
South Door
This door leads into the back bathroom adjacent to Meadowlark bedroom.
Though there is a small concrete area at the foot of the stairs, there is no paved walkway across the yard.
East Door
This porch is on the east end of the house.
The door opens into Meadowlark bedroom at the top of the stairs to the basement.
There is no paved walkway to this door.
The Main Bathroom
Priorities were different in the 1950s when this house was built: the main bathroom, with doors to the kitchen entryway and to the dining room hall, can be a tight squeeze.
While sitting on "the throne" you can reach forward and touch a wall.
The doorways are narrow and you need to step away from the sink to open or close the door into the kitchen entryway.
There is a second door by the bathtub that enters into the hallway by the dining room.
Originally the bathtub area and the toilet area were two separate rooms-- very helpful when a family lived here. We have removed the door between the two small areas.
Step into the bathtub to use the shower.
A non-skid bathmat (attaches with suction-cups) is available for the floor of the tub. A grab-bar can also be attached to the front wall of the tub.
This photo was taken from the door to the dining room hallway. To the right of the head of the tub is the doorway into the toilet/sink area.
The Back Bathroom
The bathroom off Meadowlark bedroom has much more room to move around and the doorways are wider.
The walk-in shower enclosure (not pictured) would be on the far right side of this photo, next to the toilet
The door behind the photographer leads to Meadowlark bedroom, and the door pictured to the left of the sink takes you directly outside. A good door to enter the house if you're wet and dirty and need to clean up immediately.
The back bathroom has a good-sized (though not huge) walk-in shower.
The door from the bathroom into Meadowlark bedroom is not quite 3 feet wide, but it is wider than the doorways to the other bathroom.
The door from the bathroom to the outside opens onto a small wooden porch with a few steps to reach the ground.

Recycling at Homestead House
No form of waste just happens; someone creates it, and therefore we're all responsible for what happens next.
-- from Linda's newest book
No Place Like Home
the chapter entitled "It Doesn't Just Happen"
University of NV Press, September 2009
Linda tries to minimize waste at Homestead House and at her own Windbreak House. We follow the rule of three: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle (which includes composting).
Because we have to haul all un-recyclable garbage to a landfill 25 miles away, garbage is stockpiled until a trip is efficient.
The compost bin, not far from Homestead House.
We compost everything possible.
All food scraps and other compostable garbage, such as used tea bags and coffee filters, should be put in the compost bucket next to the kitchen sink.
This organic waste may then be recycled and will not cause odors in the stockpiled garbage or attract pests.
When the kitchen compost bucket is full, the contents may be dumped in the compost bin near the garden shed and Linda's vegetable garden, just east of Homestead House.
Linda adds yard waste, such as weeds and grass clippings, to the bin and monitors its moisture level. The organic matter decays into wonderful compost for Linda's vegetable garden or fruiting trees and shrubs.
Recycle bin and burn bin.
We recycle what we can.
We collect glass, plastic, tin and aluminum cans to be recycled in Rapid City.
To prevent odors and pests, please rinse clean all food containers before putting them in the provided recycling bins. They may sit a while before they are hauled off.
Rapid City allows newspaper and corrugated cardboard recycling only. Paper and slick cardboard that cannot be recycled is collected to be burned at the ranch.
Labeled bins are provided.
The septic field west of Homestead House
But we can't flush and forget.
Homestead House waste-water goes into a septic tank-- a large underground concrete vault where solids settle out and decay through bacterial action.
Excess water flows into the septic field-- a series of perforated pipes in a relatively-shallow underground gravel bed. The excess water is taken up by grass roots and evaporation.
You remember Erma Bombeck's book
The Grass is Always Greener Over the Septic Tank
, don't you? Take a look and see if it's true.
Bacteria must flourish to keep this system working, so please do not flush any poisons (oil-based paint, harsh cleaning products) or any solids (tampons or their applicator sticks) that will disrupt the balance or clog the pipes. Thank you.

To turn it off before the alarm or the 5 minutes is up:
press the center
The weather alert system is tested twice each week:
--- Monday evenings after 7pm
--- Wednesday mornings after 11am
To listen to the weather forecast or to turn off the radio:
press the center
For volume control:
press the small up arrow or down arrow buttons.

Country Air Conditioning:
How you can cool your house energy-free and with no carbon-emissions. In three easy steps.
This is not a requirement at Homestead House. These steps are merely a suggestion for how you can keep Homestead House-- or your own home-- cool without air conditioning.
Step One:
In the evening, as soon as the temperature begins to drop (when it is cooler outside than inside), open as many windows as necessary to get good air circulation into all rooms. Electric fans may be helpful but will take energy and create noise. There are various theories about pointing the fan into the room (to suck in cool air) or outside the house (to vent the heat). Experiment to see what works best.
Step Two:
Leave the windows open all night, as long as the outside temperature remains cool. You may need to close critical windows during the night in the event of a wind or rain storm to prevent inside damage.
Step Three:
In the EARLY morning, close up ALL windows to hold in the cool and keep out the heat. At the same time, be sure to close all window shades or curtains on the sunny side of the house (south and east in the morning, south and west in the afternoon). Be sure to close every single window. You wouldn't leave a window open in the deepest cold winter, would you?
The timing of Step Three is critical.
If you wait too long to close windows and pull shades you will lose all the advantage you have gained overnight.
This is not a requirement at Homestead House. These steps are merely a suggestion for how you can keep the house cool without AC. Feel free to let in the fresh country air and sunshine.
For Linda's suggestions on how to cool yourself inside using electric fans or other techniques, see her August, 2010, blog postings "Fan Conditioning" and "Heat Wave on the Highway" in
the Blog Section
of this website.

The product ID is wrong "QRE1113" is the ID for the THT part, but I got a bag with the SMD version from a german reseller. The right part description should be "QRE1113GR" with "GR" at the end. This is the SMD version. Please have a look at the datasheet!
Is there also a THT version available from SparkFun?

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
Who knew? There's apparently a little hockey game at TD Garden this evening.
The much anticipated homecoming for the Boston Bruins (31-26-12) is finally here, as they host Matt Cooke and the Pittsburgh Penguins (41-24-5) after a season-long seven-game road trip.
Any preview of this game has to obviously start with Pittsburgh's Matt Cooke. Cooke of course is now infamous throughout the hockey world for his hit to the head of Boston's Marc Savard a week ago Sunday that left the Bruins center flattened on the ice, likely out for the remainder of the season with a concussion. The talk around town leading up to this game… "Will the B's seek revenge on Cooke and/or his teammates?"
Plenty to talk about heading into tonight's tilt, so let's not waste any more time…
Tags: Bobby Orr, Boston Bruins, Evgeni Malkin, Marc Savard, Matt Cooke, Patrice Bergeron, Pittsburgh Penguins, Sidney Crosby

For those of you who read regularly you may remember the laundry list of things I am working on fixing in my 98 Eldorado one of which was the fuel filler neck. I did not put the fuel filler neck high on my list, fixed a few other things first and never got to it. Earlier this week got a "check gas cap" message and kind of laughed because I new the fuel filler neck was bad (I'm thinking pinholes). Well today I went to get gas, started pumping and after 1.5 gallons I noticed the flood under the car. I must have hit a bump and the neck must have split in two or had some other type of massive failure, I have not looked yet. If I had put the gas pump in and went inside to get a soda I could have blew up the gas station. I just never even considered it would totally fail. If you have this problem take it SERIOUSLY.
Just ordered part number GM Part# 25644580 from Filler Neck Supply Company out of Spokane Wash. I'll let you know how it works out.
I caught a break, I am still shaken up by this (standing in a puddle of gas will get your attention). I could have set myself on fire, burned the car up (that might have been good, just kidding) and really caused some damage to others.
You get this problem, get it fixed right away, you life could depend on it

- Stylist:
- Peter
Sep 29, 2011 - Omg! I love my stylist pj aka peter has been doing my hair for over TEN years. Yes TEN! Because I am an actress and model I require someone on call at all times and he is always available to whip my doo in place every time. (Warning: He does have a Nominal fee for all day shoot bookings-but its worth it!) I love him because he always makes sure "I'm" happy before our session is over-which is more than I can say for many of the hollywood stylist I've worked with in the past. He also knows how to do just about every style ever created, which I love because in the past I would always have to find one person to do my cuts/ trims, one person to do weaves and someone else to match my look to my outfit. He does it all: well! For special occassions or a solid natural look that's flawless I'd definantly reccommend him! P.s. The best part- he is actually affordable and as a single mom, that's what matters most to me.

Database State: The UK's Electronic Prison - Part Two
Database State: The UK's Electronic Prison - Part Two
The gathering and holding of information has permeated into every facet of life in Great Britain and no one batters an eyelid. It's time to reveal what's really going to happen in the UK.
Steve Watson / Infowars | April 20 2006
Whilst there is still the semblance of a 'debate", at least among the public, concerning ID cards, there is no debate over the database that will accompany them.
The card is somewhat of of trojan horse, as under a so called government "compromise", anyone who renews a passport will have their details put on the national ID database - but will not have to get a card until 2010.
The government told us that the ID card database would make our information more secure. Blair said this would protect, not infringe our liberties. And how did they propose paying for it? By selling the information of 44 million British citizens to private companies. How secure is that?
Joe public will not be allowed access to the ID database but whichever companies the government sees fit to sell the information to will. And of course the intelligence services will be given unprecedented access.
The database will contain electronic "biometric" eye scans and fingerprints as willing volunteers line up to lick the boots of the government who promise to keep them safe by taking scans of their eyeballs. The government itself has admitted that the information WILL NOT keep us safe from fraud and identity theft, nor will it prevent terrorism. So what is the purpose of a biometric database? The population is willingly entering into the pits of hell in this country.
Even the biometric information is to be outsourced as checks on applications and the like are to be shifted to places as far flung as Mumbai, Delhi and Islamabad.
Of course, if you refuse you will be issued with huge fines, equating to figures beyond the average monthly salary of the majority of people in this country.
Earlier this year the London Telegraph reported how town hall bureaucrats are to be given sweeping new powers to investigate homes for identity card evasion and to impose heavy fines on occupants not registered on the database. The card is completely voluntary of course at this stage, yet if you say No to the ID card, the authorities will SWAT your home and you'll be crippled financially.
You'll also no doubt be denied the right to free health care and free education. Buying and selling will be made almost impossible as cash machines, supermarket checkouts and other everyday items are linked in with the ID card database. The Government has stated at various times that it feels ID card reading capability could be built into future generations of credit card readers and ATMs.
If you wish to participate in the joke that is "voting" in elections in this country you will also have to be linked into the national Identity database as the government is moving ahead with plans to establish a centralised national register of voters, together with central checking and verification of the data held on electoral registers.
The government plans to attempt to link together all its databases in a system referred to as CORE Co-ordinated Online Record of Elector, which will tie in the management and control of all facets of life for a UK citizen to one central database.
Another addition to this CORE of databases will be the national DNA database.
The British government has passed legislation to make every offence arrestable. Every suspect arrested, even if proven innocent, has their DNA added to the criminal database and stored forever in perpetuity.
Under Section 44 of the Terrorism Act, police can approach any person whatsoever, whether they are acting suspiciously or not, and demand they provide their full details, address and date of birth. This information is kept forever in perpetuity. 119,000 people have already had their details recorded and this figure will skyrocket after the post 7/7 figures are added.
The London independent reported last week that police in Britain hold vastly more DNA samples than any other country in the Western world, and many are from people who have never committed a crime. More than three million samples have been added to the national DNA database - more than 5 per cent of the population, and this is rising exponentially.
And what kind of evil criminals are being swabbed for DNA collection? Well take the case of a 13-year-old schoolgirl who was arrested in Ashford, Kent for throwing a snowball at a police car. As reported by the New Statesman, she was DNA-swabbed and her details were added to the National DNA Database. Thank God the government is protecting us from these snowball throwing subversives.
Without ANY parliamentary debate or legislation, every person in this country is being targeted for inclusion on a DNA database from birth. Hundreds of thousands of children aged between 10 and 18 have had their DNA added to the database despite never being cautioned or charged for any offence.
Worse even still, "do it yourself" ID card and DNA swabbing kits are being aimed at and sold for children. We are witnessing the acclimatization of our children to the biometric surveillance police state, making them think that having your retina scanned and your DNA logged is normal and necessary to keep you safe.
Every week in the 1960's cult series The Prisoner, Britons saw the newly designated authority figure demand the character of Patrick McGoohan hand over information. The program was an attempt at forewarning against the accelerating relationship between science, technology, and tyranny, and how it would be used to enslave a docile population concerned only with mindlessness and convenience.
The Village was a beautiful yet sinister enclave where residents were forcibly placed, kept and watched 24 hours a day by camera surveillance systems. The hierarchy of power was represented by a glowing pyramid with an all-seeing eye in the center of The Village control room.
Just as McGoohan was referred to as a number (six) and not a man in the village, so too will we get our own number with our ID card. Are we to allow ourselves to be "pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed and numbered"? Let's also not forget that the numbering of people should have been resigned to the history books after the Nazi death camps were shut down in 1945, a cause that my own grandfather fought for and survived through, and something that I will simply not tolerate in this supposedly free country.
Is this what we are going to accept in the UK? The climax of the series saw McGoohan escape the prison of The Village and re-enter society only to discover that society itself was the prison and that, in his words, "freedom is a myth." Here we are 40 years on and it seems fiction has been surpassed by reality.
This is an impassioned call to the people of the UK, please do not let our country die, stand up for the freedom our fathers and grandfathers fought and died to protect. Spread this information as far and wide as you can.

A Lee's Summit City Council committee has forged ahead to recommend including performance standards in a contract with a private group it funds to promote growth of the city.
It disregarded a consensus that representatives of the Lee's Summit Economic Development Council thought was reached regarding the issue.
During the past year the Lee's Summit Economic Development Council has been under fire by some council members for what they perceive as a lackluster performance. Councilman Bob Johnson and others have championed coming up with criteria for determining whether the LSEDC has earned the about $250,000 the city pays it each year for its programs.
During the months of criticism, LSEDC President Jim Devine, the executive director, decided to retire. The organization has been looking for a new director and considering ways to revamp its mission.
A public service agreement between the LSEDC and the city is to be considered by the full council its June 19 council meeting.
The LSEDC and City Council had a retreat last month to discuss directions, where among other items, the Kansas City Area Development Council shared its own scorecard with both groups.
Councilman David Mosby decided using similar numbers could serve as performance measures and called a meeting of his subcommittee June 4. It proposed adding standards to the upcoming agreement with at 3-0 vote, with Mosby, Derek Holland and Allan Gray voting yes, and Rob Binney, a member at that time, absent.
Brad Cox, chairman of the LSEDC said, "This has been direct conflict with the consensus reached at the retreat between the city council as a whole and the economic development council." He said the next step they had decided was a future meeting to set goals together.
"We are going to continue in that process to set goals together with the city council and the city, so that we have community goals to advance economic development in Lee's Summit," Cox said.
Cox said the council has yet to adopt the committee's recommendation, so it will work with council as a whole to as to what the measures will mean or even if they remain.
Under the committee's proposal the LSEDC would need contribute to creating in Lee's Summit:
$2.5 million more dollars of payroll compared to the prior year
at least 50 new quality jobs within the city
$6 million in development or redevelopment
A quality job would be defined as paying at least $49,000 a year and include health benefits.
The goals were derived from the LSEDC's 2011-12 annual report, which says it provided assistance for an average of $60 million of new capital investment, 500 new jobs and 160,000 square-feet of new buildings over the last 10 years.
The figures "came straight out of their book," Mosby said at the meeting.
"I think these are very reasonable and very attainable," Holland said.
During the meeting, Mosby and other members noted that the committee earlier in the year was asked by the full council to create a set of performance measures for consideration.
Holland asked City Manager Steve Arbo how the public service agreement had been negotiated between the city and LSEDC in the pasat. Arbo said the agreement had become boiler plate.
"There hasn't been a serious overhaul of the document for many, many years," he said.
The proposal for the performance measures doesn't specifically include any penalties should the LSEDC miss the mark. The document does have a section regarding termination if the LSEDC is in default or violates its terms.
Mosby said he didn't mean that the LSEDC "isn't achieving" and he was following through on a directive from the council in August 2013 to draft a set of performance measures.
Mosby said that if the LSEDC doesn't meet the goals, the next step would be the council to discuss it when considering the next contract with the LSEDC.
"Nobody is trying to punish or make it difficult for the EDC," Mosby said. "We're trying to foster an environment of achievement."

Colorado Springs Council to Consider Downtown Panhandling Ban
By Andrea Chalfin News Dir. On November 9, 2012 · 2 Comments · In Colorado Springs, Homelessness, KRCC News, Liz Ruskin, Text
Colorado Springs City Council is expected to consider a ban on panhandling downtown when it meets next week. KRCC's Liz Ruskin reports.
The proposed ordinance would ban all forms of panhandling in a 12-block area between Cascade and Nevada Avenues, and Boulder to Cucharras. Interim Director of the Downtown Partnership, Hannah Parsons, says aggressive panhandling makes people feel unsafe.
"This is something that's been heavily requested by residents of downtown – not just property owners – I mean just people in general."
The ACLU of Colorado is keeping an eye on the issue. Staff attorney Sara Rich hadn't seen the latest draft of the ordinance, but says any ban that's based on the content of a person's speech would be unconstitutional.
But Bob Holmes says other cities have enacted bans that pass muster with civil rights advocates. He's the director of Homeward Pikes Peak, an organization that works to end homelessness. Holmes says he's been advocating for action like this for years.
"About 99% of the people who ask for money need it to buy drugs, alcohol or cigarettes, no matter what they say."
The council is expected to hear public comment on the issue at its meeting Tuesday, which starts at 1:00. If council members move it forward, the ordinance would be set for final passage at a later date.
2 Responses to Colorado Springs Council to Consider Downtown Panhandling Ban
truartagenda says:
Why can't towns, such as tiny Colorado Springs, learn from real cities? Maybe we can even set an example. Due to minimum wage and no maximum wage, we have homelessness. What if there was a voucher system for people who care can donate to a store downtown and homeless could earn it by sweeping, emptying trash. It would have to be earned and used within the 12 block radius. After all ignoring a problem really doesn't make it go away.
truartagenda says:
I also recommend a system of lockers for the homeless to leave belongings. If it is all you have it is a sense of safety to keep it in a place, even if too small to sleep and eat in, is at least one's own.

"reign in blood"
Since: May 09
#1 Dec 26, 2012
DEAR ABBY: Please help save my marriage. My wife of five years discovered an Internet browser history of 13 Web pages I had clicked on the previous day. The pages were of women's sexy lips. My wife is calling it "porn" and a "gateway to porn." I feel guilty about it, but I told her it isn't pornography. I think it's a fetish. She says I'm using that word to get off the hook.
Will you please tell her that this probably is a fetish? Our sex life has not been the same since she discovered the images on the computer. What can we do about it in a way that will strengthen our marriage?-- NOT GUILTY AS CHARGED
DEAR NOT GUILTY: It's a shame you and your wife hadn't discussed what turns you on before she checked your browser history. A fetish is any object that turns someone on, and it can range from large breasts, to stiletto heels, to leather or rubber items of clothing, to full red lips. It is not pornography.
A way to strengthen your marriage would be for you to buy her a tube of bright red lipstick. And a way for her to improve your sex life would be to put it on.
DEAR ABBY: I'm a 13-year-old girl with a sister and a brother. I was recently told by my dad that I have to teach my brother how to read, but the problem is he has a learning disability and a behavior disorder. I don't know how I'm supposed to teach him to read, and it scares me.
On top of that, my dad got mad at my sister and me and said that when we were younger we were just like my brother, only worse. He said he was close to giving up on us. Sometimes Dad says we're worthless, stupid and asks why we're even in this world. He says we're not good for anything.
I have a slight form of autism, so I'm sort of slow doing certain things other kids do at my age. I feel like I'll never be as smart as anyone else, and I have no clue how I'm going to teach my disabled brother to read. Help!-- LOST, ALONE AND WORRIED IN URBANA, ILL.
DEAR LOST: It would be wonderful if you could teach your learning disabled brother how to read, but you are not equipped to do that. Your brother should be in a special education class with a teacher who has the specialized training -- and, possibly, a tutor.
Sometimes, when parents are extremely stressed or angry they can say things they don't mean without thinking of the lasting effect their words can have on a child. You are neither worthless nor stupid. You are an intelligent girl. Frankly, your father appears to be in need of some help, and I hope you will share with a counselor at your school what you have told me.
DEAR ABBY: My 13-year-old son is refusing to wear a bicycle helmet because he has decided it's "uncool." My husband and I have always worn them, but here in Texas many people don't. There's no state law requiring it.
I know how devastating the effects of a head injury can be and I want to prevent my son from getting one. How can I help my teenager see that protecting his brain is more important than looking "cool" to his friends who don't wear them? My son insists I am ... AN OVERPROTECTIVE MOM
DEAR OVERPROTECTIVE MOM: Contact your son's pediatrician and ask if he or she can facilitate a tour of a rehabilitation facility that treats people with traumatic brain injuries. If that doesn't convince your son, nothing will.

1- I've kinda got a unibrow fetish myself.
2- Honey, we're all worthless and stupid and have no idea why we're in this world. Deal.
3- No adult today has ever worn a bicycle helmet as children and guess what? WE'RE ALL FINE!

LW1: Tell her to start using hers and you won';t have to look at others.
LW3: "Contact your son's pediatrician and ask if he or she can facilitate a tour of a rehabilitation facility that treats people with traumatic brain injuries. "
Really? Maybe its just me, but it seems like these advice columnists expect a whole lot from doctors. Its not enough to give them medical care, but now they are expected to set up field trips? Really? You can't get your kid in line so now you want me to take time out of my day to set up a scared straight walk thru the trauma unit? I would never bother my kid's doctor wit ha request like this. The most I could ever think of doing is ask if he had any contact information he could give me so I could inquire myself.

Except for the ones who were involved in an accident or got knocked off their bike and got a head injury. I was against mandatory bike helmets for kids until I read how much damage can occur just from a kid falling off his bike and his head hitting the pavement. It's just not worth the life-long debilitating injuries that can result.

She has little actual power(same as every parent) to enforce this. Unless she has spies all over the neighborhood reporting back to her, the fact that he rides away from the house wearing it is no guarantee that its still on his head after he turns the corner.

LW3's signature tells as much as the letter. The teenager is breaking loose from an overprotective parent. Life is risk.
Try this. If helmets aren't cool, make it cool.Ask one of the bike messengers in your town who customizes helmets. There is a guy in the Loop who looks like a cross betwen a mutant and an insect in his helmet. Scary to look at. Neat guy if you ride the elevator with him.

Good point. My mom wasn't allowed to wear miniskirts, so once she was away from the house in the morning on her way to school, she'd roll her skirt up at the waist.
Or like girls who put on forbidden makeup once they're at school.

Interesting idea. It also serves to highlight how different one town is from another. Bike messenger? Chicago, maybe. New York.
Orlando? No such animal that I've ever seen. Too much sprawl. Hell my company has its own inhouse courrier going between locations. No possibility in hell that he would be able to make his daily rounds using a bike.
Unless you're in a big city with concentrated population(or at least a concentrated business district, I just don't see much use for a bike courier.

Even in the Twin cities, we have bike couriers but only for interdowntown messenger service--the bike messengers stay in one city, they don't work in both Mpls and St. Paul on the same day. Otherwise, all couriers are vehicles.

1. Tell your wife to get with the 21st century. If you want to indulge your harmless fetish, go for it.
2. Your father is a shytehead.
3. No, you don't get to go see the poor brain-damaged folks like animals at the zoo.

LW1: Your marriage must not be that important to you if you're asking Abby to help save it.
And you're wife must have grown up in a cave if she can equate the pictures you're describing with porn. She's really just upset that you seem unsatisfied with what she has to offer and have to look at other women for some type of sexual gratification.
Work with the lipstick angle, although I don't think it's going to help you much.
LW2: "Sometimes, when parents are extremely stressed or angry they can say things they don't mean without thinking of the lasting effect their words can have on a child."
Sorry, Abby, this dad is such an assh*le that he really means it.
Poor kid needs to talk to someone at her school. No way should she be burdened like this.
LW3: PEllen's idea is good, except that it won't be able to help this mom. At the least, she needs to repeatedly point out that professional bike riders, street, oval, bmx, trick, bike messengers, wear helmets.

My wonder, reading between the lines of the letter, is whether this family is home-schooling. That would make the father's (cruel) statements about almost giving up on the girls make more sense, as well as the order for the girl to teach her brother to read.
It just sounds like there's something more about the dysfunction here that makes me wonder if the girl doesn't have access to such resources as outside adults at school.

I think you could be right about the homeschooling.
Makes it even worse for the poor thing. Too bad she can't find someone other than Abby to reach out to.

The letter is written from Urbana Illinois which is the big campus of teh University of Illinois. They have a lab schol for early childhood and education majors. My SIL majored in that 35 years ago and it was there at that time.
I wonder if the dad is with the University and is being academically competitive by proxy

Roller skating too. I don't know how little old so freaking well coordinated me managed to take so many falls on the sidewalk without hitting my head on the concrete. I survived, but I still don't know how I got through without a major head injury.

At the time during an emotional press conference, Edwards said it came down to the PSU and the Miami RedHawks. He tried PSU for a year, and now is ready to transfer back home to Miami.
Edwards will have to sit out for a year under NCAA transfer rules. He will be a sophomore when he become eligible during the 2011-12 season.
The past year at PSU, although he battled a knee injury, Edwards averaged 4.2 points (2nd among PSU's 6 freshmen Tim Frazier's 5.0), 3.3 rebounds (frosh leader), and 16 minutes per game (2nd behind Frazier's 18.4). He shot 35% from the field, 28% from behind the arc, and 81% from the line. He also had 5 starts for the Nittany Lions.
As a senior, Edwards was named Greater Miami Conference (GMC) co-player of the year which he shared with current RedHawk Orlando Williams (Edwards was sole recipient after his junior year), 1st team All-Ohio, 1st team All-Cincinnati, and had been named two time Hamilton Journal Butler County player of the year.
Edwards' shooting percentages his senior year were 50.6% from the field (GMC #6), 40.5% from behind the arc(#7), 76.5% from the line (#4). Edwards per game averages were also in the GMC Top 10 in every statistical category. The averages in just 25.1 minutes a game were 17.4 points (#4), 4.8 assists (#1), 1.7 steals (#9), 0.8 blocks (#6), and 9.3 rebounds (#1).
Edwards (6'5", 225 lbs) had been a prime target of Miami for years. Edwards is one of the top three or four most highly touted players in Ohio and is the top ranked wing forward.
Edwards comes from a strong basketball pedigree as his mother Glenetta Edwards was a four year star at Monroe (OH) High School and Sinclair Community College. His father, Bill Edwards, Sr., had his number retired at Wright State, played in the NBA, and represented his country with Team USA's "dream team" at the 1998 FIBA World Championships.
Greg Brown has coached Edwards in AAU since the fourth grade. When Brown spoke with RedHawk Insider in the Fall of 2008, he gave Edwards the highest praise, "I really do think Bill is the best player in Ohio."
Brown added that Edwards could play every position but center, even in college. Brown said Edwards is strong and athletic enough to rebound in the paint, but is a good enough ball handler to take the ball up the court. Brown added that on the perimeter, he creates mismatches with his skills and size.
Finally, Brown noted that Edwards is an intelligent player who does not feel the need to be the leading scorer every game. Brown said Edwards is a great passer who does not care who scores the points.
With Edwards, Roberts, and the other All-Ohio Force members buying into Brown's team oriented coaching, something often lacking in AAU ball, the Force has been a dominant player in Ohio summer basketball for years. Last July, the squad won Adidas' premier national tournament, the Adidas Take 5 Classic in Cincinnati.
Middletown High School Coach Bob Ronai noted that Miami and Penn State had been schools recruiting him the longest and hardest. "Like Miami, Penn State offered and constantly call. They have been recruiting him a long time."
With so many schools interested in Edwards, Coach Ronai's advice to Edwards was to choose a school where he felt comfortable with the setting. Ronai added, "I said, 'You are going to the school and no one else so you do what feels right.'"
It may have taken another year, but Edwards believes he finally found the schools the feels right.

One dead in Swiss mosque shooting
21:38 22/08/2014
Geneva - One person was killed on Friday in a shooting in the prayer hall of a Swiss mosque, police said.
The suspected killer was arrested at the scene in the northeastern city of Sankt Gallen, local police told AFP, without giving further details about the individual.
Officers were alerted at around 14:00 (12:00 GMT) that shots had been fired in the mosque.
At the scene, they detained one man who was in possession of a handgun and found another lying dead in the prayer hall.

One wonders, without wanting to wonder in the wrong direction, what happened here? Perhaps a religious murder? By some fanatic group?
John Greystoke 2014/08/22 10:34:29 PM
Perhaps! Could very well be!
Billy Hewie 2014/08/22 10:35:52 PM
Or a ISIS training demo, with realistic execution.

Fanatics killing fanatics can solve a lot of problems! How do we speed this up? Shall we brainstorm on this?
Just Me 2014/08/22 10:28:14 PM
At least he was at the right place, at the right time, for police to catch the killer. How lucky could a cop be with a suspect still standing with the gub in his hand. Case closed.

If it was a Israeli fanatic he would not have stayed on the scene, he would have been long gone by the time the police arrived! The Israeli's are not stupid.

Zeenat Allie 2014/08/23 08:43:58 AM
Let the Swiss law take its course. Killing in a place of prayer shows that tolerance, respect and humanity will soon be a thing of the past. Whether this happened in a mosque, church or synagogue is revolting.

Opinion on Color
ok i already saw a thread about black and silver and silver sables however i could NOT see any of the pictures lol. Can anyone tell me what you would call my male in my profile picture. i have heard him called so many different colors so i want to hear what everyone thinks lol. i posted a album on my profile showing the stages of his coloring within his first year. would love any views on it and opinions. Thanks!
I would say Faded Black and Tan. He is very handsome!
Looking at the photos in your album in your profile, I would say washed out black and tan.
This is what confuses me is because he does have the creamy look on top like a faded tan maybe but his stomach chest floor legs and back of thighs are pure white? lol didn't know if this makes a difference?
The white on a dog like Luka is a very faded tan. You mentioned black and silver - that is also a basic black and tan, with the tan faded to almost white.
The different colours like black and silver, black and creme, black and tan, black and red, are all black and tans with different amount of pigment in the tan areas. Technically they are not different colours - all the same colour with some dogs having more pigment, and others less.
thanks for the explanation. i had someone call him a silver sable too isn't that just the pattern for the most part?
Looking at this adult coloring, I was wondering too if he might be a patterned sable - his saddle is so light, with so much undercoat showing through - but the puppy pictures prove that he is black and tan.
Sables are born brown or grey all over, then if a patterned sable, the darker sable coloring recedes to a blanket or sable pattern.
Black and tans are born almost solid black, then as they get older, the black recedes, and the tan comes out. The puppy pics show him to be a black and tan.

I'm heartbroken, I had to have my 4 1/2 month old puppy put to sleep due to a DHPP vaccine reaction that destroyed her bone marrow. After she received the vaccine (her second set) the first indication of problem was swelling and vomiting, the very next day I took her back to the vet and they gave her two more injections to counteract any allergic reaction. Next day, she still had a large swelling and refused to eat. This launched a two week period of hospitializations and emergency night runs to the 24 hour clinic, once with a 105.5 fever. All of the tests were fine until 5 days later, her cbc was normal but showed she was slightly anemic, she hadn't been eating and was on IV fluids during her hospitalizations. A week later and Pie was so lethargic, the vet did a bone marrow aspiration and discovered Pie was destroying/not making red or white blood cells. She started a transfusion and sent labs out, since it was Saturday the results wouldn't be back until Monday. The vet had ruled out everything but Leukemia which is very rare so we decided to treat for the auto immune reaction as it was the only thing it could be. The next day inspite of the transfusion her red count was down to 10 and although she hadn't fully regained consciousness from the anesthesia given for the bone marrow aspiration, she was beginning to moan. It was time to let her go.
The vet asked if it were okay to obtain additional bone marrow samples and a liver biopsy. I said whatever you need to keep another puppy from going thru this just do it. Thankfully she covered her bases with this. In the following week my vet has been in contact with the vaccine maker. Their vets are saying they have never seen such a severe reaction where the bone marrow is actually destroyed, immune mediated hemolytic anemia yes but destruction of the ability to make blood cells no. Since we've ruled out anything organic causing the problem the manufacturer is saying the only known substance to cause this is an overdose of a chemotherapy drug or a pharmaceutical grade poison. They have asked my vet to catalog lot numbers and inventory every vaccine she has on hand, want all records and samples. They are also offering to pay for all expenses not just from the vaccine reaction on but from the very beginning, even the puppy food I bought at the vet when I first brought her home.
This makes me suspicious as hell. I want to know how many other dogs have died from this? Pie was such a sweetheart, dumped with mom and three other nursing puppies at some awful rural kill shelter. Everybody had found homes except for her, she was going to be put down. When I brought her home she was 3 months old, had known no human contact other than someone filling the food bowl, had never walked on anything other than the concrete kennel. She asked for nothing, she deserved so much better than this. She was my companion and went to work with me every day, I can't believe she is gone. I can't tell you how many times I said to the vet... she was fine until she got the vaccine, they won't listen. Well now the vet is a believer and sadly it took my puppy's life to prove it.
How would I go about finding out if others have lost their dogs to this same "mistake"? I know I was only trying to protect her from deadly diseases but I feel like I betrayed her. My vet summed it up by saying how terrible she felt and that her first vow was to "do no harm".

Canon makes two parallel ranges of inkjet all-in-ones, intended for the photo enthusiast and SOHO business markets. The Canon PIXMA MX715 sits towards the top end of the second of these ranges, but has useful photo facilities, too.
The biggest new feature of the machine is its duplex scanner, which means it can scan and copy a page printed on both sides, in one operation. That's not the same as one pass, as the paper is automatically fed through the scanner twice, in the same way the machine feeds paper when doing a duplex print.
The machine takes on Canon's customary jewellery box design, with the scanner set into a deeply bevelled surround, which also contains the control panel along its front face. The high-gloss black top flips over to become the feed tray for the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF), but leaves the machine looking neat when not in use.
The control panel uses Canon's clever 16-key control pad, which doubles as both a fax number pad and a menu navigation set, depending on the mode selected from the four large keys to the left of its 62mm LCD display. Cleverly, the buttons illuminate with different legends depending on the current use. At the far right are Start and Stop buttons for scan and copy jobs.
The front cover folds down to become the output tray and has a smaller size than most machines which use this technique, as the print heads – with their five coloured inks, including dye as well as pigmented black – are positioned further towards the back of the Canon PIXMA MX715.
Paper feeds either from a 150-sheet cassette which slides in from the front or from a pull-up 150-sheet feed tray at the back. You can load both plain and photo papers at the same time, though it's sometimes difficult to force the machine to use a particular source for a particular job.
The five ink cartridges clip easily into the head carrier and the supplied software installs without difficulty. As well as USB and Ethernet sockets at the back, the machine supports wireless and includes WPS setup which connects to a wireless router with a couple of button pushes.
With regard to the remark...
"Settings in Word page setup override driver"
You don't qualify this further - but in general, it's normal for Word's Page settings to override print driver settings, as this adds more power to Word's Macro and Document Template features.
It also allows Word docs to print different pages of a document from different paper sources, on a suitably equipped printer, even when such a feature is absent from most printer drivers.
I read your article and went to the shop. I have a large number of drafts to print which have a large amount of colour. Can you tell me how to print drafts in black only to save colour ink? Can't find it in the manual.
how do you change the size of the print and how do I find the manual

Any help would be awesome,thanks!
if your lookin for a cheap way, check out the garbage can armor, but for the helmet, and jetpack, id look up something on the forum.
Cruzer makes amazing armor and helmets, I definatly recommend contacting him. Ladysewforus does the soft parts..
Man of War Studios for the jetpack, arena, or classic...does both...
I would definitely recommend Bobamaker for his flightsuit and real leather vest. His chest, shoulder, and collar armour is great too and comes pre-polished in cold cast (definitely go cold cast whatever you do btw as the appearance is 100x better than a paint finish). I recently bought a fully finished Cold cast Jango lid off him and its very very nice. BM isn't a one-stop shop but what he does is pretty amazing. I went with MPFilmcraft for the leather, cruzer for the gauntlets, leg armour and backplate, darkside for the knees and darts, MR Westars, Fownes navy gloves, and GBX boots. I'll be buying a MOW jetpack soon to complete. I haven't added up what I've spent but I hope you've saved enough as Jango deserves to be done well.
Come on Roddie, you don't trust the info I gave you on the Garrison board? I'm a little hurt bro! Just kidding...these guys have been nothing but helpful with my build. I would go with cruzer's armor and bobamaker for the suit and vest...I am super happy with mine.
Cruzer was selling his whole suit cheap. 80% done with one purchase, depending on whether or not you can use the soft parts,. All cold cast too.
Come on Ryan,you know me better than that,I was just fishing...lol
got some cruzer guants last week and i have to say, if ya go with metal wicked beard armor. Go with Cruzer guants they are just awesome
I can make the Jango Flightsuit and Real Leather Vest......
Let me know if you have any questions.

New York City To Be Lit By LED's (Hopefully)
It was announced on Wednesday that New York City will be participating in a test program to install new LED streetlamps around town. Lighting design group the Office For Visual Interaction has created a super efficient, good looking lamp that could be a huge boost for both the city's bottom line, and the visual landscape. Only six of these high tech green beauties will be rolled out at first, but hopefully all 300,000 will be replaced in the future.
The New York Times reports:
L.E.D.'s can last more than 50,000 hours, obviating the need to have workers change the lights. (Insert your own bulb-changing joke here.)
The OVI contract is not just to switch the city's current crop of high-pressure sodium lamps for L.E.D.'s, but to introduce a completely redesigned lamp pole as well. Today's poles have become a designer's nightmare, with signs, traffic lights, control boxes and other accessories hung willy-nilly from them. The OSI approach envisions a sleek design that includes dedicated channels to hang the various accoutrements of city life.
In addition, up to four adjacent L.E.D. light sources and multiple lenses will direct the pole's light to different places; one unit may illuminate the street while an adjoining one will shine upon the sidewalk.
