Amazon Customer Review: "I am a full time student, and I print off drafts of written work and photos everyday! This printer is terrific, and I see a plethora of bad reviews that seem a bit suspicious of user error. I suggest reading the instructions and learning about your printer. The more you know the less things will come up, and when they do, they are often easy fixes. Try not to rely on customer support for your products when you have the power in your instruction pamphlet. I would hate to see this printer get such a bad wrap that is unsupported by the product itself and merely due to a time deficiency in the busy schedules of new users. I have had this printer since the day it came on the market, perhaps 8 months now. It has provided me with the highest quality prints and docs of all my printers to date, and as an student, a quality printer is extremely important. I suggest a reconsideration for those who have one, and I highly reccomend it for those who are looking."

So clearly a very practical product which combines the capabilities of a printer, scanner and copier in one neat package.

homeless man radio voice

An Ohio homeless man called Ted Williams is the talk of the internet today after a youtube video recorded an exhibit of the wild-haired man's golden radio voice. Former DJ, Williams fell on hard times in the mid 1990's and found himself on the side of I-71 and Hudson Street in Columbus, holding aloft a sign that declared “I have a God-given gift of voice.”

This morning, a tidied-up Williams fielded job offers on the phone as he visited WNCI’s Dave & Jimmy morning show and then chatted with CBS’s The Early Show. Williams discussed his hard times with the radio jocks, admitting his addictions to alcohol and other drugs, but it was heartwarming to see him reveling in a familiar studio setting with a headset and microphone.

So a somewhat rags to riches tales here and surely off this bout of popularity he will be able to establish a financial outlet for his talent.

winning mega millions numbers

It occured that four of the six winning numbers in the Mega Millions drawing last night were the same precise numbers, in the same order, of the mystery numbers in the TV show "Lost". The "Lost" Numbers: 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42 and the Mega Millions Draw: 4, 8, 15, 25, 47, 42.

They are the numbers that haunted every "Lost" fan for years and now there is real life meaning to them. On the ABC show, the character Hurley picks the numbers and wins $114 million in a Mega Lotto Jackpot. Last night's Mega Millions drawing was for $350 million. One of the co-creators of "Lost," Damon Lindelof, claimed on Twitter that 9,078 people played Hurley's numbers in the MegaMillions Tuesday night, each winning $150.

So a spooky turn of events in the lottery and some people have certainly reaped mass rewards for playing the exact numbers.

chinese stealth fighter

China is still a long way from being able to fly a stealth aircraft, despite the images that are surfacing that they have a working prototype, a US Navy Official said on Wednesday. The Wall Street Journal published images of what it said appeared to display a Chinese J-20 stealth fighter prototype in proces of making high speed taxi test.

Asked when China would be able to field the jet, Vice Admiral David Dorsett, director of naval intelligence, said it would be years. Dorsett told reporters the published photos left a lot of questions unanswered. "In terms of the stealth photos, the IOC (initial operational capability) on the stealth aircraft, it's still not clear to me when it's going to become operational," he said. "Developing a stealth capability with a prototype and then integrating that into a combat environment is going to take some time," he said.

So the Chinese technology hasn't developed enough with this aircraft for it to be launched just yet.

cisco slm2008

Cisco SLM2008 8-port Gigabit Smart Switch - PD/AC power

The SLM2008 switch is perfectly suited to conference rooms, labs, shipping/receiving departments or in marketing, design or audio/visual workgroups. The eight 10/100/1000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet) ports make it possible to connect to other gigabit devices on the network(servers, workstations and network storage) to swiftly move bandwidth-intensive files whilst supporting 10/11 Mbps clients.

The SLM2008 supports the IEEE802.3af standard for Power over Ethernet (PoE) for obtaining its power over a designated PD port or from an external AC power adapter. This gives companies the option to install the switch in places where a power outlet may not be present, such as in ceilings and in walls. The SLM2008 is able to secure the network through IEEE 802.1Q VLANs and IEEE 802.1X port authentication. For environments where IP multicast applications are used, the switch is capable of limiting the traffic to only the ports that have requested that traffic with support of IGMP Snooping. Additional QoS capabilities like IEEE 802.1p, DSCP, and 4 hardware queues make it possible to maintain good quality for real-time applications like voice and video. The SLM2008 offers an easy-to-use browser interface for the management and configuration of the features, making it ideal for small businesses without an IT staff or that have minimal technical expertise.

Amazon customer review: "I bought this switch to replace a failing 10/100 switch at home. So far, it's been a great product (in use for just about a month) though I haven't yet had a need to use the QOS or MAC restrictive features. But it's a fantastic gigabit switch!

So an impressive piece of hardware to meet power needs and networking needs of companies and groups which need to organise the traffic flow.

birds fall from sky

Environmental workers picked up all of the carcasses on Sunday of around 2000 red-winged blackbirds that had fallen from the sky in a central Arkansas town. All of the birds had fell from the sky on Friday Night over a 1-mile area of Beebe, and an aerial survey reported that no other dead birds were located outside of that area.

Robertson said the workers wore the suits as a matter of routine and not out of fear that the birds might be contaminated. He said speculation on the cause is not focusing on disease or poisoning. Arkansas Game and Fish Commission ornithologist Karen Rowe said Saturday the birds showed physical trauma, and speculated that "the flock could have been hit by lightning or high-altitude hail." The commission said that New Year's Eve revelers shooting off fireworks could have startled the birds from their roost and caused them to die from stress.

The birds are currently being sent to laboratories to try and pinpoint the cause of death to the flock.
