Alway use the free software drivers if at all possible. The Lexmark drivers are not updated often enough, and do not integrate well with today's spoolers. Lexmark is supposedly working on this.
For the time being, gimp-print supports the following printers:
The Z45 is not supported by free software or Lexmark. This printer simply won't work.
This is possible, as the ratings only count for free software ("free" in the sense of liberty, www.gnu.org).
Free software has the big advantage that it comes with source code and the user is allowed to change and re-distribute it. So it can be easily used on BSD, Mac OS X, or other operating systems (this site does not only support GNU/Linux, but every Unixish OS), and the user can fix bugs and customize the software. And distributions can include free drivers on their downloadable CDs.
The Lexmark drivers are proprietary. You don't get the source code for them. In addition, they are made for GNU/Linux distributions as one had two or more years ago. Lexmark didn't realize that one uses CUPS and Foomatic nowadays. So it is extremely difficult to use them with modern distros.
In the beginning I have tried to help the users with my "lexmark-foomatic-kit" (which you also used), but Lexmark changed their drivers and published more and more different types of drivers. So I once gave up guessing how all these different Lexmark drivers work and producing non-working code due to lack of having test printers.
With a two years old distro it perhaps even works, as Lexmark didn't realize that on printing under Linux/Unix changed a lot and now CUPS and Foomatic are the standards. A GNU/Linux expert would perhaps make the printer working, too, but when a manufacturer promises GNU/Linux support for a consumer product, it must be possible that a consumer can set it up. Hiring an expert to make this printer running is out of discussion, it would cost at least ten times the price of the printer.
They published drivers which do not integrate well with current distros. In addition the drivers are proprietary, which makes the experts at the distro companies not integrating them (you cannot put non-free software on the downloadable CDs of a distro).
Don't use Internet Explorer for downloading
files, since IE likes to corrupt them. Try
Also try deleting and reinstalling the program.
If you were using the Lexmark drivers, the stopped working because your new distribution is not using the old "LPD" spooler system. It is probably using CUPS, and the Lexmark drivers do not work with CUPS. If possible, try to use a free software driver.
Many people have succeeded in installing the old "LPD" system instead of CUPS, and have made their printers work again. See below for the various steps involved.
This printer may be able to use the Samsung SmartGDI printer driver.http://www.openprinting.org/download/printing/samsung-gdi/
Yes, it has been reported printing, but very slow.
I think printer E320 and drivers recognises only PCL5.
Generic PCL 5 printer in the database onopenprinting.org and set up your print queue based on
that data, or use printconf-gui and choose the HP LaserJet 4 as
your printer model.
If the printer's manual claims that your printer is a PostScript printer, choose printer language auto-detection or PostScript as printer language (sometimes called "Personality") in the front panel menus. If the printer has no front panel menus, get PUP to change the hardware configuration of the printer.
Another problem can be that when the printer is a PostScript printer and already in auto-detection mode that it does not understand PostScript when the PostScript job is preceeded by a PCL banner. Either do not use banners or use PostScript banners.
GhostScript drivers
Choose "Generic PCL 6/XL Printer" as your printer model. They support 1200 dpi.
This is untested.
Below is a patch against the
ljet4 driver when the printer is
"Generic PCL 5/5e Printer". The basic steps are:
2) From the PPD-O-Matic
Select Printer drop-down choose
Generic PCL 5/5e Printer. Click
and save the resulting file to a convenient location.
By default the file is named
3) From the bottom of this message put everything AFTER the
in a file in that same default location. Name the file
GenPCL5-to-LexE320.patch. Make sure none of the lines in the patch have
been word-wrapped. The first column will ALWAYS be a
@ + - or a space.
Anything else means you got a wordwrap issue and the patch won't work.
4) From your shell, cd to the location of the files and issue the command
patch Generic_PCL_5_5e_Printer-ljet4.ppd GenPCL5-to-LexE320.patch
(the first file is the orignal PPD and the second is the patch in case you changed the names and aren't familiar with patch).
5) Rename this file to
6) Move it to
/usr/share/cups/models/Lexmark/LexmarkE320.ppd or your
equivalent cups/models location.
7) Restart your cups server so it finds the new PPD and choose the
Lexmark → Lexmark E320 from your CUPS config tool of choice.
Sorry this is a little verbose but I want to make sure the causal user can create the file.

No. If you are able to purchase a new machine, buy an OfficeJet, or a suggested printer.http://www.openprinting.org/suggested.html
Another possibility is to configure for several different lexmark printers, and hope that one works. Like a lottery.
No. Their binary driver set does not support it.
No. You'll definitely have to write a driver yourself.
No one has reported it working yet. Try using the
driver. Note, the lxm3200 driver is no longer maintained.
Work is an overstatement. It is possible to print with this printer, using the Lexmark drivers, however the process is long and difficult.
This worked for one person, using debian. The initial steps are very similar to the other examples of installing the Lexmark drivers.
1. Download the Z35 drivers from the Lexmark website.
These directions apply to the
CJLZ35LE-1.0-1.TAR.GZ file.
2. Untar the file, but don't use the unzip
-z option. A
self-extracting archive will fall out, but don't run it.
3. Strip off the bash code until the
END_OF_STUB marker, and
then save it as a
.gz file.
4. Untar the compressed file with
gzip -cd lexmarkz35-1.0-1.gz | tar xvf -
5. Use alien to convert their Redhat RPM to a
.gz file.
6. Untar the
.gz file, and place its contents in
7. Create the directory
WARNING! This directory is going to hold some rather
large output files. If you are low on space in var,
create this directory in their /usr/local/lexmark tree
and make a symlink to /var/spool/lexmark.
8. Run
./z35install in the directory you extracted the
file to. Ignore the RPM failure. Any other failures are
probably bad news, though. I had to run it twice, and
then it magically worked.
9. Make the following symlinks in
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 44 Sep 15 22:03 auckUS.lut -> /usr/local/lexmark/z25-z35/layout/auckUS.lut lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Sep 15 22:03 colorsV.lut -> /var/spool/lexmark/Z35Driver/auckUS.lut
NOTE: The links may be created automatically, but they will
point to the wrong place. Double check.
Also, make sure it copied the
Z35Driver.conf file into
the spool direcotry.
touch /var/spool/lexmark/Z35Driver/lpd.log
11. Check
/etc/printcap, and either change the
line to
or make a symlink.
12. Make sure that you have the following programs:
13. Now you' ll use
"directlly". convert the doc you want to print and then use this command to print:
cat filetoprint.foo | /usr/local/lexmark/z25-z35/scripts/LexmarkZ35 -
14. You can modiffy the LexmarkZ35 script to make things more "automatic". Remember that you need the FIFO pipes that has the spool-dir, you can use
mknod -p …
to create them, look at the install scripts in the
rpm file.
Lexmark did a poor job of packaging the driver, and the installation is broken.
There is a link missing.
colorsV.lut pointing at
auckEU.lut was missing. This can be seen by running the
driver with
ltrace or
strace Check to see
if there are broken links in the last lines of the trace output.
cat image.ppm | ltrace LexmarkZ35 > trace.info
You can't. The Lexmark drivers do bi-directional communication with the printers. Files don't to bi-directional I/O.
Type z35 Linux in the
Find Drivers … boxhttp://www.lexmark.com/US/support/drivers/index.html
and download
You will need enscript.
The Lexmark driver is made for LPD and LPRng. Red Hat 7.3
uses LPRng as default spooler, and Mandrake 9.0 uses CUPS.
You can switch to LPRng by doing
urpmi LPRng on the
command line (as root) and then starting
Expert Mode, and then
Change printing
system</tt>. Choose
LPRng. Some additional packages will
be installed. Say
No if you are asked to transfer your
Z35. Then re-install the Lexmark driver and you should be able
to print.
Take a look atLexmark-List and the next pages also.
0. Download the Z35 drivers from the lexmark site. These directions
apply to
CJLZ35LE-1.0-1.TAR.GZ. If you're reading this file from an
archive, it is possible that the tech support guys may have fixed some
of the problems noted, but unlikely.
1. Untar the file. A self-extracting gzip file will fall out.Don't try to run it. It will break things. Strip off the bash code till the END_OF_STUB marker, and then save it as a .gz file.
2. Untar that with
gzip -cd lexmarkz35-1.0-1.gz | tar xvf -
3. Use alien to convert their redhat rpm to a
.tgz file. Untar this
file and place its contents in
/usr/local, like they want.
4. Create the directory
WARNING! This directory is going to hold some rather large output
files.. If you are low on space in var, create this directory in their
/usr/local/lexmark tree and make a symlink to
5. Run
./z35install in the directory you extracted the
gz.sh to. Ignore
the RPM failure. Any other failures are probably bad news, though. I had
to run it twice, and then it magically worked.
6. Make the following symlinks in
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 44 Sep 15 22:03 auckUS.lut -> /usr/local/lexmark/z25-z35/layout/auckUS.lut lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Sep 15 22:03 colorsV.lut -> /var/spool/lexmark/Z35Driver/auckUS.lut
NOTE: It will probably create these, but have them linking to the wrong place. Double check.
7. Make sure it copied the
Z35Driver.conf file into the spool dir. Also,
touch /var/spool/lexmark/Z35Driver/lpd.log
8. Check
/etc/printcap, and either change the
line to
or make a symlink.
9. Apply the patch below to that script.

Some notes for people who have seen previous versions of their drivers:
The script provides essentially the same
functionality as the foomatic lexmarkwrapper did, but it only supports
the Z35. Also, the binary only driver now reads from
/var/spool/lexmark/Z35Driver/input_pipe instead of taking input from
stdin. They also introduced a whole slew of locking issues and race
conditions with this "functionality." See the patch for details.
It sounds like a sensor problem. If that is right you won't be able to print this test page and you'd better call your support. Maybe they have a trick to fix it. Or if it is in warranty it will be exchanged.
This printer has been reported working with the drv_z42 driver.
Generally, no.
It is possible to use the Z42 driver to print small images (no larger than about 50×50 pixels). There is one report of this printer working fine with the Z43 driver. Since the Z42 and Z43 driver are the same backend ghostscript driver. There may have been changes to the printer specifications at some point.
Please do not buy this printer expecting it to work.
Second Edition.
The z45SE has a higher resolution than the Z45: Z45: 2400/1200 Z45SE: 4800/1200
You may have to remove the /usr/bin/foomatic-gswrapper script if it produces errors that prevent the gs-esp output from making it to the printer.
For example, you might see
Error: /undefinedfilename in (/dev/fd/0) in
/tmp/cupsomatic.log file.
It is included by default inESP GhostScript.
The Z43 driver has been reported working.
1) Retrieve the drivers for the printer at http://www.lexmark.com
2) Unpack the
.tar.gz file
3) Make sure that you have the following packages installed:
print spooler
If you are going to interface with the printer through the usb port, make
sure that the usblp and printer modules are either loaded (with modprobe)
or compiled into the kernel.
5) make a script called
rpm-fake in
with the following contents:
cp $3 /usr/local/src
6) Make the following changes
chmod ug+x /usr/local/bin/rpm-fake mv /usr/bin/rpm /usr/bin/rpm-real ln -s /usr/local/bin/rpm-fake /usr/bin/rpm mkdir /usr/etc ln -s /sbin/pidof /bin/pidof
RedHat and a few other distros
prefer the
/bin directory to store the
binary, and the driver software isn't smart enough to look in the
11) Run the Lexmark installation script.
12) When the graphical installation program complains about unexpected
output from
rpm –force … quit the program.
ln -sf /usr/bin/rpm-real /usr/bin/rpm
14) There will be an
rpm file in
/usr/local/src that is similar to the
name of the downloaded driver file. Run the alien command on it
alien /usr/local/src/driver-name.rpm
15) Now there should be a
.deb file in your current directory.
dpkg -i
ln -sf /usr/local/bin/rpm-fake /usr/bin/rpm
17) Run the installation script once more, this time forcing the installation even though it will inevitably give the same error message.
mv -f /usr/bin/rpm-real /usr/bin/rpm
19) You should not need to configure the printing system if you use GNUlpr or lprng, but with CUPS you may need to.
if: in
/etc/printcap, should be
/dev/null. This is necessary because it is in fact the
/usr/bin/LexmarkZ55 program that accesses the port and interacts with the printer, NOT the printing system.
ln -s /usr/lib/libslang.so /usr/lib/libslang.so.1
The new version was made for Lexmark Z55se (second edition).
Use an earlier version 1.01.
/var/spool/lexmark/Z55Driver or
/var/spool/lpd/lexmark If needed, create the folder and give it these permissions – group:root, user:lp, global-readable, user/group writable, global-executable.

1. Make sure that usb is support for your kernel.
you can type
cat /proc/bus/usb/devices to check

Jose Santiago III
Hometown: Bridgeport, Conn.
Major: Human Resources Management
WCSU Degree: Bachelor of Business Administration
Activities: Latin-American Student Organization; WCSU orientation leader, 2005-06
Honors and Awards: Dean's List; WCSU Homecoming King, 2006
First-generation college graduate Jose Santiago had the love and support of his family when deciding where to go to college, but no family history to rely upon. "I narrowed my search to four colleges," he says. "After weighing my options, it was a clear choice: WestConn. The environment, the people, the professors, the city -- all were conducive to where I could see myself getting a higher education."
"I decided on my major by choosing the one that would best fit my personality and lifestyle," Santiago explains. "I always felt I had a capacity for business and I wanted to see how far I could take it. I feel that there is a great need for Hispanic men in the business world, as well."
When thinking about who made a difference during his four years at WestConn, Santiago says, "It would be impossible to list all people who took on a mentoring role for me. Everyone from the professors, university staff and older students kept me on the right track over the years."
Asked what he will remember most about his WestConn experience, Santiago says, "One of the most memorable experiences for me was doing the new student orientation. I was an orientation leader for the summers of 2005 and 2006. I felt that we were best prepared to help them out with the whole process since we had been through the experience. Being a new college student is a scary thing and if there was anything I could do to make that a little less uncomfortable, I was glad to help."
After graduation, Santiago plans "to delve into the corporate world and see what kind of impact I can make. I will also be attending graduate school next spring."
Santiago's advice to new students entering WCSU is: "The road to education is not an easy one, but the feeling of accomplishment is great."

It's Day 91 of the NHL lockout, and both sides are lawyered to the max.
NHLPA: Waaaaaah! We'll go to court and prove the lockout is illegal.
NHL: Waaaaaah! We'll get the courts to void all the players' contracts.
NHL fans: Waaaaaah! We quit!
That, in a nutshell, is where we stand, folks: Two greedy sides still arguing about how to divide $3.3 billion.
Do you still care?
The league and the players' union have gone to the courts _ or are about to go to the courts _ to complain about each other like grade-school kids. The players are in the process of voting to see if they should file a disclaimer of interest. If they do, it's their hope they will dissolve the union and file an antitrust suit against the league _ and ask a judge to declare the lockout illegal.
The league has filed a pre-emptive legal strike, trying to stop the players from dissolving the union. (And it's not because the NHL loves the union's boss, Donald Fehr.)
If the NHL is unsuccessful in claiming the lockout is legal, it wants to have all player contracts nullified and declared void.
That, in effect, would make every player an unrestricted free agent.
Want Sidney Crosby? Claude Giroux? Shea Weber?
Step right up, bidders!
Repeat after me: CHAOS.
What we have here is a lot of posturing. If both sides spent as much time negotiating as they did trying to ruin the opposing party, well, we might just be playing hockey now.
Maybe all of this legal mumbo jumbo will speed up the process and lead to a settlement, as it did in the NBA last year, when it had a new CBA 12 days after the union filed a disclaimer of interest.
My guess: We have a settlement just before Christmas and we're playing on Jan. 5.
Will any fans still care by then?

EUREKA SPRINGS Authorities have arrested a man in the New Year's Eve slaying of a Eureka Springs woman but have not formally charged him.
Carroll County Sheriff Bob Grudek said 21-year-old Laura Aceves was found dead Monday. She was lying in a pool of blood in her apartment.
The Harrison Daily Times reported that investigators say she was shot and a "metal object" was found lodged in her head.
An 18-year-old Berryville man was arrested as a possible suspect and a gun was found at his residence.
Grudek says he's waiting for the medical examiner's report and other evidence before determining whether the suspect should be formally charged.

Composed of an industrial-grade form factor, expanded input and output interfaces, and with wide operating temperature ranges, the Edge Gateway 5000, combined with Dell's data analytics capabilities, promises to give companies an edge computing solution alternative to today's costly, proprietary IoT offerings.
The Dell Edge Gateway sits at the edge of the network (near the devices and sensors) with local analytics and other middleware to receive, aggregate, analyze and relay data, then minimizes expensive bandwidth by relaying only meaningful data to the cloud or datacenter. Thanks to new Dell Statistica data analytics also announced today, Dell is expanding capabilities out to the gateway. This means companies can now extend the benefits of cloud computing to their network edge and for faster and more secure business insights while saving on the costly transfer of data to and from the cloud.
"Organizations are struggling to make the best decisions regarding the data volume and complexity created by the vast numbers of sensors, embedded systems and connected devices now on the network," said Andy Rhodes, executive director, Commercial IoT Solutions, Dell. "As more of the data is processed in real time at the edge of the network, the gateway becomes the spam filter for IoT."
Dell's end-to-end portfolio of IoT-enabling solutions
The Edge Gateway 5000 is the newest addition to Dell's end-to-end portfolio of IoT-enabling solutions and services, which provide customers with choice and flexibility to architect IoT ecosystems with analytics at the edge, the cloud or the data center. The gateway is available for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to build into their solutions or for building and factory automation customers to use as part of their IoT strategy which can span data center solutions, advanced analytics and digital services. Additionally, customers' can take advantage of Dell's global availability, trusted security options, and Dell Support and Deployment services including ProSupport which provides end-to-end hardware support throughout the entire product lifecycle, helping customers maximize their gateway environment and minimize time spent on maintenance.
For example, ELM Energy is already using Dell gateways to make a difference in securing a more sustainable energy future. ELM's FieldSight Controller automates decision structures that toggle between the use of distributed energy sources such as solar, wind and backup generators and traditional utility grid sources. The systems also help customers make decisions about the most effective times to broker surplus energy back to the open market.
"Through the power of technology, ELM Energy and Dell are enabling real-time decision making that is optimizing and balancing power generation and maximizing the use of renewable energy," said James Richmond, president, ELM Energy. "For example, if the renewable energy being generated exceeds demand, our technology is able to automatically decide if the excess should be fed back to the grid or stored for later use when the renewable sources are unavailable. The new Dell Edge Gateway 5000 Series is the perfect platform for our FieldSight Edge software to perform computing functions close to the source, at a fantastic value."
Additional Dell Edge Gateway 5000 Series benefits include:
- Ability to be mounted on the wall and to operate in locations with extreme temperatures like boiler rooms and deserts
- Expansive I/O structure designed to bridge both legacy serial connections (RS-422/485, CAN bus) and modern wireless networks (Wi-Fi, 802.15.4 mesh) to the internet with expansion capability for future options
- Operating system flexibility with choices that include Ubuntu Snappy, Wind River Linux, Windows 10 IoT Enterprise
- Security foundation including TPM, secure boot and BIOS level lockdown of I/O ports
- Manageability with Dell Command|Monitor for Linux and Dell Cloud Client Manager
- Dell is working with innovative independent software vendors and system integrators like SAP, OSIsoft, Eigen Innovations and Lucid to add domain expertise
- Standard Dell lead times allowing customers to receive hardware quickly, a rarity in the OT industry today
- Consulting, strategy and integration from Dell Services to help information-intensive enterprises like healthcare and insurance customize IoT approaches for their industry
Dell and Intel are also launching the "Connect What Matters" contest for innovative IoT solutions built on Dell Edge Gateways. The contest is open to commercial companies and solutions can be developed for any vertical. Participants will compete for the Best IoT Design, and the deadline for submissions is March 31, 2016.

In addition to the four performance related factors I went through in part 1 of this article, I would also try to select a firearm that meets some (or all) of these secondary considerations: High Capacity The more bullets I can carry in the gun, the less I have to reload it. I have no interest in having to reload during a fight, as doing so costs time that might allow my enemy to overcome me. The downside to a higher capacity gun is that they are usually thicker and harder to conceal, especially in an IWB holster (inside the waist band). Lightweight Heavy guns are harder to carry. I carry a small lightweight Smith and Wesson M&P C most of the time, and in some cases switch to a full size gun. When doing so I immediately notice the additional discomfort of having that extra weight pulling on my belt. Try to find a gun that is comfortable enough that you will be okay carrying it all the time. Stock Ready This means that I recommend you select a gun that is ready to carry right out of the box. The most likely replacement from the factory should probably be sights. High quality manufacturers offer "stock ready" guns right out of the box. There are some things to consider when "setting" up your gun though, and some aftermarket changes are a good thing. Others are probably not recommended. The following will provide that information. Firearm Setup The set up of the gun is critical to how it performs. If your gun met the criteria listed earlier, there should be little additional setup needed, and there might actually be a danger in changing certain things in a stock firearm. I strongly recommend shooting the gun as close to the factory configuration as possible, as high quality companies build their guns to meet certain specifications. Modifying or changing parts to the newest gimmick of the day might compromise how the gun is supposed to work, and hinder its reliability. Here are the key factors that should be dealt with when setting up a gun: Trigger Be very careful when modifying the trigger system on a carry gun. Making a carry gun trigger very light is probably not a good idea, from both a performance perspective as well as a legal one (if you ever have to go to court over a shooting). The performance downside is that an extremely light trigger is higher risk in terms of potentially having an accidental or early discharge of the firearm while under stress. Light competition type trigger jobs are also prone to cause malfunctions due to light strikes caused by using less than factory weight springs. Legally, any modification that may make it seem like you are interested in making your firearm more "lethal" is probably something an attorney will use against you. I recommend sticking to the stock trigger weight (whatever comes from the factory), and think that it is probably ok to "clean" the trigger up on a carry gun to make it smoother. On the other side of the coin are the heavy trigger systems similar to the NY style trigger on a Glock. I feel that heavy a trigger system to prevent accidental discharges indicates that the shooters are very untrained, and certainly do not recommend them for a carry gun if you are committed to training and the basic principle of keeping your finger off the trigger until you have made the decision to shoot. Sights HIGHLY recommend Dawson "Charger" rear sights are designed for carry (this picture is my S&W 9C carry gun), and are built to allow for one handed malfunction manipulations by hooking the rear sight to work the slide. Notice the solid construction. You can find them at www.dawsonprecision.com. Sight replacement is something I recommend unless the gun can be ordered with good carry sights. The criteria I am looking for on a carry gun are as follows: Solid design (metal, not plastic) Visible (larger rear sight notch, and fiber optic or tritium front sight) Snag free (no sharp corners or areas that will snag or tear your clothing during the draw process) One-Handed useful- I like a rear sight (such as the Dawson Charger) that allows the operator to use it to work the slide during survival shooting situations where one hand is occupied or injured and cannot be used. Note on night sights You can see the night sights in this level of darkness, but you could not identify whether or not the person is a threat without a light. This is why I don't think night sights are mandatory on a carry gun. You might be surprised to see I did not mention "night sights" in my criteria. While I have some guns with night sights, and do not have anything negative to say about them, I have found through testing that they are much less needed than most people think. Here's why: In order to see most night sights glow (which is what makes them unique and work) it has to be dark enough that the shooter must use a flashlight to illuminate and "identify" a threat in order to make a decision to use lethal force. So…. if night sights are the ticket, but you have to have a light to clearly identify in most cases…. then I am not inclined to tell you that you must have them. Now, if you do have them on your carry gun, great, but before you run out and spend the money on them try this: get a pair of night sights and wait until it is dark enough to see them really glow. Now have a friend dressed in a dark shirt place something in their hand (something dark like a T.V. remote control) and have them get 10 yards or so away from you and hold this object near their waist area. You will find that the light is probably low enough to prevent you from seeing what it is. Some of you with very good vision will be able to pick the object out, but most will have to use some sort of light to be certain of what the person has in his/her hands. Remember, "mistake of fact" shootings are those that happen commonly in the Law Enforcement circles when an officer makes a mistake about what someone had in their possession. These shootings very often occur during low light situations. Learn from them! Grip Surfaces You can see the textured grip surfaces on these guns. Both have been stippled to increase the friction between the hand and the grip. Beware of over stippling a carry gun though, as it will tear your cloths and skin up. To increase your ability to control the recoil, and manipulate the gun, all allowable grip surfaces should be stippled or coated with skateboard tape, with the exception of the back strap of the gun. The backstrap of the gun should be left relatively smooth to allow the strong hand to index the gun properly and slide up to a high grip position on the tang of the weapon during the draw process. I prefer stippling on carry guns as I can adjust the sharpness (with a file) of the edges, so if a gun is tearing up my side or cover garments, I can make the surface less aggressive. I strongly recommend this modification for carry guns, especially if one might be shooting with sweaty or bloody hands. Manipulation devices (magazine release, slide lock/release, de-cocker, etc.) Manipulation devices are those that allow you to release the spent magazine, slide, and de-cock the gun (if the gun has a de-cocking device). Magazine release- Use caution with extended magazine releases to ensure they do not allow the magazine to fall out or get snagged on clothing, but they should be considered for those who cannot reach the button without pivoting the gun in their hand. There are several great guns on the market today that have the feature of allowing the user to switch the magazine release to the other side of the gun, strongly benefiting those who shoot with their left hand, as most guns are right hand friendly. Slide Lock/Release lever- An extended slide lock/release lever should be considered for those who cannot reach the release without moving the gun in their hand, but again I caution you to test the device and ensure that reliability is not compromised. Once again, there are a couple manufacturers that are building guns with ambidextrous slide lock/release levers. Truthfully, I advocate simply manipulating the slide with a gross motor movement instead of using a slide lock in most cases. Your Defensive Handgun Training Program is the most advanced training program you will find with the purpose of training those who might use a handgun for defensive/combative purposes to the highest level possible. If you have ever wondered what you should be doing on the range while you spend your precious time and ammunition preparing for a lethal encounter, this book will give you the answer.

Doron Ofir Casting is looking for possible cast members of two upcoming reality TV shows. Here are the details.
"Under One Roof"
The series "Under One Roof" is looking for people older than 25 who still live with parents or grandparents—either in basements, attics, guest houses or their childhood rooms.
No, this isn't a "Too Close for Comfort" sequel, but it's being touted as a reality show sitcom.
"We live in a day and age where there isn't a set time to leave the nest," the casting sheet reads. "There is an entire generation at home, plotting their futures from the comfort of the bedroom they've always known.
"Move out? Why would you do that?! You've got a good thing going. Annoyances aside, who can take care of you better, than your mom and dad? They may not want to admit it, but they love having you there. Who wouldn't!?!
"Paying bills is overrated. And your parents are already so good at it, why not let them keep up the good work?
"Social stigmas be damned, living at home as an adult isn't what everyone else thinks it is. Living with your folks might not be ideal, but you're living the "good life" with the best roommates ever—your parents."
The casting agency is looking for men and women who are at least 25 years olf and appear to be younger than 40.
"Are you ready to show people that you are more than your living arrangement," the casting company asks.
Go to www.underoneroofcasting.com to apply.
...Ruined My Life
Pastimes and hobbies often become obsessions that ruin family, work and other relationships because the individual's compulsion took over his or her life.
"Often this comes with consequences that leave you at rock bottom," Doron Ofir Casting says in a casting announcement.
The casting company wants to cast indivduals for an upcoming reality anthlogy series called "...Ruined My Life," which will tells the stories of people who have struggled with compulsive behavior in the areas of Money & Greed, Sexual Compulsion, Gambling, Technology and Fitness morphed into something for sinister and destructive.
Casting directors want to hear cautionary tales from the people that have experienced these situations and fight for redemption—the people whose past indiscretions have gone beyond the norm. The casting agents will treat every story with respect and encourage everyone to apply.
If you or someone you know would like to apply please submit an application at www.ruinedmylifecasting.com.

College Basketball: UNH teams looking to bouce back
By ALLEN LESSELS
New Hampshire Union Leader
Patrick Konan, senior forward, 2013-14 UNH men's basketball. (COURTESY)
— The University of New Hampshire men's and women's basketball teams, looking to bounce back from some rough times a year ago, open the 2013-14 season with a doubleheader against Division III teams at Lundholm Gymnasium on Saturday night.
The women take on Worcester State at 5 p.m. and the men face Suffolk University at 7:30.
Maureen Magarity's women's team was picked fourth in the pre-season America East coaches poll behind Albany, Hartford and Stony Brook.
The men drew the No. 5 spot, with Vermont on top, followed by Stony Brook, Albany and Hartford.
America East remains a nine-team league with Massachusetts Lowell moving up from Division II to take the place of Boston University, which has moved on to the Patriot League.
UNH women
The Wildcats slipped to a 12-18 overall record and 6-10 mark in the league last year after finishing at 16-14 and 9-7 in America East the year before.
Kelsey Hogan, a guard out of Nashua North, lost two seasons with knee injuries early in her career. She's back for her sixth and final season.
"She does such an incredible job of leading the team, off the floor and on," said Magarity.
The top two scorers from a year ago — Cari Reed (12.4 points a game) and Morgan Frame (10.8) — are gone. Hogan was next at 9.8 points and junior center Kaylee Kirkpatrick followed her at 7.6.
The Wildcats don't have a lot of depth, but they do have size.
Magarity's starting lineup for Saturday night will probably have junior Ariel Gaston and sophomore Elizabeth Belanger joining Hogan at guard and has Kirkpatrick and junior Corinne Coia up front.
Coia and Kirkpatrick are both listed at 6-foot-4. Coia is a transfer from the University of Rhode Island and sat out last year.
"Both Corinne and Kaylee do a real good job of getting up and down the floor," Magarity said. "For as big as they are, they're very mobile."
Magarity figured her team would be picked around the fourth or fifth spot.
"It should be an interesting year in the league," she said. "All the big guns lost some people. I think the league will be up for grabs.
UNH men
After posting at least a dozen wins in four straight seasons, the Wildcats went 9-20 overall and 5-11 in America East last year.
"We took a real step back a year ago emotionally, competitively and respect-wise and we've got to get those things back," said Bill Herrion, who is entering his ninth year at UNH.
He thinks he has a team that can do that and liked how it looked in scrimmages against Quinnipiac and Merrimack.
It's a young team overall, but there are four seniors, led by Chris Pelcher, a 6-foot-10 center, and Patrick Konan, a 6-foot-6 forward.
"Both are capable of being all-conference players," Herrion said.
Konan averaged 11.8 points and 6.2 rebounds and Pelcher was at 9.1 and 6.3 last year.
Guards Jordon Bronner and Scott Morris are the other seniors.
Pelcher, Konan, Bronner and freshman Jacoby Armstrong, if he's ready to go after dealing with concussion symptoms, will likely start on Saturday.
The fifth starter is apt to come from a group that includes Tommy McDonnell, a junior guard from Durham, and freshmen John Edwards and Daniel Dion.
There are five freshmen and Herrion expects them all to contribute this season.

Description: As you may guess, petty means "small". You'll use these great little knives for detail tasks, just as you would a paring knife. Petty knives generally range from 4 - 5 inches.
Made in Seki, Japan, the Al Mar "Ultra Chef" knife is classic and state of the art in performance. Each blade has 33 individual layers of stainless steel -- 16 layers on each side, plus a central core of VG-10 cobalt stainless steel hardened to Rc 60-62 (very hard!) for a keen, long-lasting edge. In the best tradition of knife making, a steel ferrule is forge-welded to the tang to ensure that food particles cannot become lodged between the tang and the handle. These knives are incredibly strong, light in the hand, well balanced, and extremely sharp. The handles are made from select cocobolo wood, long considered one of the world's most exotic hardwoods. High in natural oils, cocobolo holds up well under heavy kitchen use. Each knife comes individually gift boxed.
Availability: In stock. Usually ships in 1-2 business days

Fortunately there's still a few major tests for the average dirt road bike tourer left in Australia and the Birdsville is up there for those who prefer cycling with some quantity of adversity to overcome.
It might not be as rugged an adventure as it once was, say back in the 1930s but the unsealed highway still presents its challenges: a mainly chunky road surface; goodly distance between supply points, like 523 km; a general lack of facilities along the way; the requirement to plan the water situation; the need for self sufficiency out there.
Still it retains its legendary status due to the overall remoteness, the sparseness of the landscape you traverse, it's one of the most barren areas in the continent, it really is the whole lot of nothingness you might anticipate, massive vistas across Sturts Stony Desert, the lack of significant sized vegetation, the dry watercourses, the huge sky all making for a compelling Outback experience.
For those who are sick of riding on k after k of softish Outback dirt road the Birdsville is quite the change: softness is not a problem here unless referring to one's posterior.
Check it my report out here.

Turn-based action is pre-computed with a "blue bar" before the action is displayed. This allows for improved performance of large battles on older computers, and for convenient "skipping ahead" in the early turns of a battle before enemy contact.
Suppressive fire: when you order direct fire at an enemy infantry unit, and that enemy unit later disappears from sight, the target order is not immediately canceled. Instead, your unit will continue to area-fire sporadically at the enemy's last known location for a short time if the LOS is sufficiently clear for area-style targeting (note that sometimes it won't be). Volume of fire is lighter versus open terrain, and shots will be taken at other targets of opportunity as usual. If the enemy reappears, it will again be targeted directly. If it does not reappear for about 45 seconds, the target order is canceled. A similar behavior applies to individual soldiers who have fired on enemy infantry without targeting orders from the player. They will continue to area-fire at their target's last known location for about 30 seconds.

KABUL, Afghanistan Afghanistan's president has accused U.S. forces of continuing to capture and hold Afghans in violation of an agreement signed earlier this year between the two countries.
Hamid Karzai's late Sunday statement, which did not include any specific demands for the U.S., was made days after the beginning of negotiations on a bilateral security agreement that will govern the U.S. military presence in the country after the majority of troops draw down in 2014.
Karzai's critics say he frequently strikes populist, nationalist stances that give him leverage in talks with the Americans.
The Afghan president said some detainees are still being held by U.S. forces even though Afghan judges have ruled that they be released. He also decried the continued arrest of Afghans by U.S. forces.
The two countries signed the detainee transfer pact in March but the handover of detention facilities has been slowed by the U.S., which has argued both that the Afghans are not ready to take over their management and insisted that the Afghan government agree to hold without trial some detainees that the U.S. deems too dangerous to release.
"These acts are completely against the agreement that has been signed between Afghanistan and the U.S. President," said the statement, released by Karzai's office after the president was briefed by judicial authorities on the transfer.
He urged Afghan officials to "take serious measures" to push for taking over all responsibility for the detention center on the edge of the main U.S. base in eastern Afghanistan.

Well here is my story.
I am currently in highschool and I have moved and transferred alot of times in my life. This is probably my 11th school in total. Because of this, I am not as smart as I should be. *Example: I was at one school and they were working on cursive handwriting. Then out of no where, I have to transfer schools. Now at the new school, they are already done with cursive handwriting and are now on roman numerals! But I never got to finish cursive handwriting. So It's like, oh well, I can't catch up and I haven't learned everything I have supposed to learn.
It's basically the same thing with highschool. I transferred again, and I didn't get to take Algebra 2 but now I am in College Algebra. (I am a Junior in College Algebra and College Algebra is a Senior Class) It's too late to switch classes and besides there is this girl in my class that I really like and she's so cute and I really want to fight to be in that class with her! (Yes, I realize school is more important than dating) So some of the stuff that I am supposed to know, I don't. So now we are working on ** Sketch the graph of each function** I have NO CLUE how to do them! The problems look something like this: y>(x+1)^(2)-3 OR EITHER LIKE THIS (x+1)^(2)/4 + y^(2)/36 >_[greater than or equal to] 1
I have no clue how to do them. My teacher says something about Parabola. I don't know what that is!!?? I know how to do Substitution, Elimination, and those problems where you have to do Elimination with three equations instead of two.
I really need some help. I am willing to work hard to stay in this class. I don't have time to go after school because my parents have to pick me up.

Our wilderness is under an unprecedented attack from Trump and anti-conservationists in Congress. Help us fight back.
Media are reporting that President Trump will arrive Dec. 4 to make the long-expected proclamation, declining either to visit the monuments or consider the sizeable majority of Utah residents who opposed his administration's punitive review of these and other public lands in the first place.
Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski's has introduced riders to the 2018 Senate Interior Appropriations bill would exempt Alaska's two national forests, the Tongass National Forest and Chugach National Forest, from the 2001 Roadless Area Conservation Rule.
H.R. 3905 would open the door for controversial mining projects in the watershed of Minnesota's Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture has recommended re-opening more than 1 million acres of land adjacent to the Grand Canyon for uranium mining, revising a 2012 Obama administration order.
The House of Representatives is preparing to vote on a bill that would undermine longstanding environmental rules in order to increase logging in national forests and sidestep public oversight.
The Bureau of Land Management wants to drill right on the boundary of Theodore Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota, a park dedicated to a great conservationist president who made it his missio
Per media accounts, President Trump has approved a recommendation to reduce protection for Bears Ears National Monument.
The Interior Department has proposed raising entrance fees at 17 national parks, from Maine's Acadia National Park to Utah's Zion National Park. The changes would increase the cost of a visit by up to 180 percent for a carload of people (from $25-30 at current rates to $70 during peak visitation season).
Toxic bill that would effectively block new protections of national monument lands was supported by some House members with monuments in their home districts.

Former AG hired to investigate UNH's actions over alleged locker-room photographyBy MARK HAYWARD
New Hampshire Union Leader
March 13. 2014 7:23PM
DURHAM — An allegation about unwanted locker-room photography of the University of New Hampshire men's basketball team was first reported on Jan. 20, an entire month before police and top university officials were made aware of it, the UNH police chief said Thursday.
Police Chief Paul Dean stressed that the initial report was not made to law enforcement at either UNH or the University of Vermont, where the Wildcats played a game on Jan. 20. In the past, he has said an athlete told staff, but he would not identify the staff member on Thursday.
Dean's comments represent an official acknowledgement of when a report was made. A subsequent investigation led to the arrest of the part-time director of basketball operations, Scott A. Weitzell. Weitzell is at the center of a joint criminal investigation by UNH and UVM police into whether he used his cell phone to record images in the locker room used by UNH after the UVM game.
Meanwhile, the university announced late Wednesday that it has hired former New Hampshire Attorney General Michael Delaney to lead an investigation into the reporting delay.
UNH President Mark Huddleston has said he is deeply troubled by the misconduct and the month that it took for university administrators to find out about it.
In a four-paragraph statement released Wednesday, UNH said the Delaney investigation could expand to include the entire University System of New Hampshire. At this point, Delaney and the McLane law firm are only looking at the university's response to the alleged incidents of misconduct, the statement said.
"Mr. Delaney and his colleagues will have full access to necessary resources and personnel to ensure a thorough and timely investigation into the reporting delays," Huddleston said in the statement.
"Our students and their parents count on us to act swiftly and decisively when we learn of misconduct. We, in turn, count on every member of our campus community to report any and all forms of misconduct without delay," he said.
Senior university leadership found out about the matter on Feb. 20, the university has said.
"As soon as the athletic director (Marty Scarano) found out about it and reported it to the administration, it was simultaneously reported to me," Dean said.
Weitzell was arrested by Newmarket police on Feb. 21, when they visited his home to execute a search warrant. He is charged with resisting arrest and attempting to falsify physical evidence, after he allegedly tried to keep his cell phone from authorities.
The part-time director of basketball operations was banned from the campus on Feb. 21 and fired four days later.
The university has said that "senior leadership" moved quickly to address the matter once they became aware of it.
University spokesman Erika Mantz said the cost of the Delaney investigation won't be known until it is completed.

Kennedy cousin Skakel is freed on bail in 1975 murder of neighbor
November 21. 2013 12:07PM
Stamford Superior Court Judge Gary White ordered Skakel, 53, a nephew of Ethel Kennedy, released to await a new trial in the murder of Martha Moxley. Both were 15 at the time she was beaten to death with a golf club, but Skakel was not charged until decades later, and was prosecuted as an adult rather than as a juvenile.
The bail hearing came a month after Skakel's new lawyers convinced another judge to overturn his 2002 murder conviction because his previous lawyer provided "ineffective counsel" during the trial.

Great quality Tee, delivered super-quickly at a very good price. 1st class service - what more can I say, or ask for? Thank you.
The material quality is very good, colour, softness of fabric, and it held its colour and shape after washing. The sizing does run quite big though, so if you want it fitted, maybe go a size down.

Dedicated readers will recall a product review we did some time back on a rather unusual amplifier, the very large and heavy Arc Audio 4000SE. What made this big subwoofer amp unusual was the choice of topology. Rather than a common Class AB or Class D design, the 4000SE used the Class GH configuration, to improve overall efficiency, but without the usual sound quality issues associated with Class D. And if you recall, it worked very well.
Well, it seems that the product folks at Arc Audio have decided to continue the exploration of the efficiency benefits of Class G, and obviously realized that with improved efficiency comes the possibility of reduced heatsink size. So now instead of a monster of an amp, (and once again tapping the engineering wizardry of Robert Zeff) they've used the technology to create a series of "Mini" amplifiers. These Mini amps come in single, two and four channel designs, and the stereo models are full range and bridgeable. This time we're going to have a close look at the Arc Audio KS 125.4, "Mini" amplifier, which has a manufacturers suggested list price of $519.00 in the USA, making it competitive with many of the popular more conventionally larger size amplifiers.
The amplifier is indeed small, considering the prodigious power ratings it boasts. Rated by Arc Audio at 75 watts x 4 channels into 4 ohms, and 125 watts x 4 into 2 ohms, it measures about half as big as a conventional competitive amp, at 11.625 x 5.125 x 1.75 inches. The Arc Audio Mini series is conventional in appearance, finished in a combination of semi-gloss powdercoat on the extruded aluminum heatsink, and using a black anodized, brushed aluminum top cover, with an oval, silver colored Arc Audio badge.
Continuing with the physical examination of the Mini four channel amp, I noted that the power and ground connections will accept 4 gauge cables, and the speaker connections can handle up to 8 gauge wire. The cables are held in place with nickel plated, Phillips head set screws. On the top of the amplifier is where you'll find all the settings and adjustments. One of the first things I noticed were a pair of small slide switches. One was marked "Input Level", and it had a Hi and Low setting. The other switch was labeled "Auto Sense" and simply On or Off. Here's where reading the manual comes in handy… as it turns out, the Arc Audio amplifier can be turned on by a conventional +12V signal from a headunit, or it can be turned on by sensing when the amplified outputs of a factory headunit turn on. The amp does not sense signal, but instead works on a different type of signal commonly found on the amplified outputs of a head unit. Then in a stroke of brilliance, when the amplifier is used in auto turn-on mode, the turn on terminal of the amp becomes a source of +12V output, to turn on additional amplifiers conventionally. This clever feature also will prevent excessive turn on noise, because the consecutive amps will be delayed in turning on until the main amp is done. Sweet!
I removed the six machine screws that hold the top cover on, and had a look inside. What I found was a well laid out amplifier, with a symmetrical layout, and extensive use of very low tolerance surface mount style parts. The power supply uses four pairs of 50N06 MOSFETs with each one capable of continuously switching 35 amps of current. The outputs are two pairs per channel of TO-218 large case TIP35/36 high power transistors, with a total output capability far exceeding the Arc Audio KS125.4's design. The power supply gets its energy from 13,600µF's of capacitance, and after stepping up the "jolts", the secondary side of things has 8800µF's of storage capacity. Two 30A ATC style fuses are mounted on the panel beside the power connectors. The amp is complex inside, with a high part density which speaks well to the ability of the factory building it, as well as the designer who did the layout. Vertically mounted daughter boards are used to conserve space, and to provide the top mounted control functionality. These little vertical boards were solid in their placement, and in fact the entire amp seems solidly built, with good attention to detail.
The Arc Audio KS 125.4 is a fairly basic amplifier in terms of audio control features, but it certainly includes all the "required" ingredients. There are separate gain pots for each of the four channels, so getting the left to right "balance" set perfectly is simple. -12dB Butterworth crossovers are employed for both high and low pass, and can be adjusted from about 40Hz to 500Hz. The rear channels include a bass EQ function that is centered at 45Hz, (which is about perfect for most systems) and can provide up to 15dB of boost. Thankfully, the "Q" factor of this boost control is nice and narrow, making it far more useful and effective than some of those designed more to put a marketing bullet on the box than to actually use in real life. Make no mistake, the folks behind this amp, "get it".
Lately my ears have been spoiled by the exceptionally superlative performance of a couple of very high-end home amplifiers I've been listening to, (by high-end, I mean amps that cost as much as a decent new car) and so I was quite conscious to avoid being overly critical of the next mere "car amp" I auditioned. As it turned out, I needn't have been so concerned. Now while I'm certainly not going to tell you that the Arc Audio KS 125.4 sounds just like a Krell or Pass Labs amplifier, but when you consider what it is, and how much it costs, it's certainly a welcome addition to the system in any car!
The Arc Audio KS 125.4 sounded very good throughout my listening trials. I configured it so the rear channels were bridged into my 4 ohm reference woofer, and the front channels drove my reference bookshelf speakers. With the front crossover filter set to all-pass, and the sub adjusted to about 80Hz, the amplifier was very musical, and virtually transparent. Bass was tight and very defined, with good power and authority considering the 250 watt rating. The full range front channels sounded as if the amplifier wasn't there… which is about the nicest thing you can say about an amplifier. I didn't notice any of the "compressed" type of sound I have noted on some recent full range Class D designs, and I think the Class AB and Class G designs may still have a slight sonic edge there. Stereo imaging was excellent, as was the decided lack of background noise. Other than a very slight amount of noise from the top mounted cooling fan, this thing is dead quiet. When the amp was pushed very hard, with the woofer occasionally driven well into clipping, I did notice the front channels also began to distort as the available current in the power supply was depleted. This however is common to most multi-channel amplifiers, and is certainly nothing specifically deleterious to the Arc Audio design.
One of my concerns when I saw the size of the heatsink and read the power ratings was whether or not the amp would pass muster from a thermal perspective. After listening to it for several hours at relatively high levels, I measured the surface temperature of the heatsink. The hottest spot I found was about 71°C, which is good and warm, but not hot enough to make the amplifier thermally protect. Now, I should remind you that the amp was inside my cool listening room, and not in a hot car trunk, so how it's going to do in the Arizona summer remains to be seen, but I found no cause for thermal concern in my testing. And I have tested amplifiers that would thermal under the same conditions, so I'd have to say it's very competitive from a thermal perspective.
After I'd finished the listening part of the evaluation, I brought the amp into the electronics lab for a thorough examination. I've looked inside and measured thousands of amplifiers over the years, and sometimes I sort of develop my own performance expectations based on what I've just seen and heard. Before ever firing up the Audio Precision analyzer, I expected the Mini Arc Audio amp to surpass it's published specs based simply on how it sounded and what I'd noted inside. The Arc Audio KS 125.4 did just that. It made more than advertised power at 4 and 2 ohms, and also at 4 ohms bridged. S/N was better than published as well, and the frequency response within human hearing was within 0.3dB from perfectly flat. When I noted how densely populated the PCB was, I wondered if the amp would have problems with crosstalk. Crosstalk, or stereo separation is the products ability to keep the signal on one channel from "leaking" or "crossing" into the other. I needn't have worried, the Arc Audio KS 125.4 measured as good or better than almost any other car amp I've tested. Another kudo to the layout and design team! There was really very little to find fault with, maybe the overall power efficiency wasn't quite as great as I expected, and I thought it could have had a bit more available gain… but really, that was about it for raspberries.
The Conclusion
With their relatively modest power, these Mini amps are probably not going to be the first choice for a hard core SPL customer, but the Arc Audio Mini Series represent a high-tech and different approach to compact, good sounding amplifiers for the vast majority of enthusiasts everywhere. Everything I've seen here would indicate they'll be reliable, easy to live with due to their small size, and you'll look long and hard to find something that sounds significantly better. So in the end, if they sound good, fit in small places, and don't break, what else could you ask for?

Fun the things I missed out on seeing the first time that I don't feel ashamed to have not seen!

What was that at the end? Like, the Love Theme From He-Man?
The only bit of He-Man I remember was the one episode where some rock monsters somehow get ahold of He-Man's sword. Hijinks ensue, but at the end of the episode He-Man tracks them down and says something like "swords are very dangerous, you shouldn't just play with them", and the rock monsters are like "you're right, swords are bad" so they toss the Sword Of Power into a lava pit. The He-man is all "wait, swords are bad for YOU, not for ME". A fun little subversive message for the kids.
Oh wait, there was also the episode where someone gets trapped inside a computer. He-Man fixes it by punching the computer until it explodes.

I need to preface this with lancer in robotech. He's gay or at least as gay as can be clearly shown in a cartoon besides showing him drill holes in walls at rest stops. I've never heard anyone say a word about him. He's like Morpheus, just happens to be different everyone can absorb it and move on.
He-man on the other hand just has such a huge vibe that makes people point and scream. The big Jim line not only had the battle cat mold but an early version of man e faces too. The big Jim figure itself wore tiny shorts and had rubber arms that flexed. The gimmick was feeling his muscles. Are you sure he-man was too muscular?
