Looks delicious!I have pasta for dinner a few nights a week (working in an Italian restaurant is just like that)… You can bet that on Monday night, I'll be making a variation on this! This would be fabulous with some white beans thrown in!!
This looks positively fabulous. Just the type of pasta that uses up a bit of what's left in the fridge — and tastes absolutely fabulous! YUM.
I love all kinds of pasta and this one seems so tasty… Adding balsamic vinegar is a great idea!
Sophie, I like how you show off the Chorizo in this dish. It tastes wonderfully and no one will wonder why this pasta tastes so good!
Yummm, I don't eat it but I'm desiring more and more…
Delicious looking pasta Sophie! I admit I'm a sucker for chorizo anything. I like how simple it is too 🙂
This pasta sounds wonderful with Chorizo – yum!
Sounds great! I love Chorizo!
This looks just beautiful. I love the flavors in this dish, and yes, I will be wanting more!!
This sounds really good – it's funny, I don't like olives at all, but for some reason I like olive tapenade! Maybe it's the texture of the olives that I don't go for but I just can't stand them! Yet, olive flavored is A-OK!
Sophie, what a nice coincidience… I just made a chorizo pasta the other night. Yes, I still want more, the one like yours… yummm!

Oh yum, sausage and pasta go together so incredibly well!
Yum, I love all things chorizo!
Oh Sophie I could eat the whole thing. I love the chorizo with the pasta!
This looks wonderful. I just love chorizo! Slicing it very thin like that really helps it go farther, in terms of flavoring the dish.

This is a perfectly good knob to use. Grab it, turn it, pull (or push), and the door swings open. So it meets your needs. Or does it? Does it meet ALL your needs, your universal set of needs, needs that arise in different situations, different contexts?
Well, suppose you are rushing down the corridor in your office building, with a cup of coffee in one hand, the other clutching a folder or file. You are late. You run up to the door and see the same round knob as above. Can you open the door with it when both your hands are "occupied"?
Or would this design do a better job:
Because with this, you can lean down a bit, and push the handle with your elbow. If neither hand is occupied, you still grab, turn, push (or pull) as always. The handle meets your diverse needs, needs that rise in different situations. It has, what we call, a "universal design".
It took a long time for people to become conscious of needs that go beyond those that are mainstream and taken for granted. Like people using wheelchairs. When they first built houses and office buildings, people used stairs or steps to climb up the building to get to upper floors. This alienated a population of people who were unable to use their legs. They used wheelchairs in hospitals. Maybe a few in their own homes. But by and large, they were kept out of office buildings and even prevented to do social visits. They couldn't pay their bills, draw their money from banks, or perform any transactions. Or see visit relatives and friends.
It has been only 4 decades that their needs were acknowledged. In the beginning, it was expensive to redesign and rebuild buildings and homes for people with such special needs. So ramps were "attached" on the side of the buildings for such "special" people. Like this:
"We" soon became associated with the "normal" population that could use steps, and "They" with "those" people who couldn't. Handicapped people. Those "poor people" who couldn't walk. This led to the exclusion of a part of mankind to a lower, somewhat lesser conceptual level where the handicapped felt like outcasts in their own midst. They were made to enter from the side rather than from the front, "like the rest". It compromised their self-dignity.
The Inclusion Movement rallied against the tradition of "Exclusion" for decades. Until the day came when leading architects and designers began envisioning buildings in which various options were made available to negotiate higher floors. Technology, too, came to the rescue. So elevators and escalators took over. No side-entrances for special needs was necessary. ALL needs were human needs. And ALL needs had to be equally respected, equally addressed. Everyone deserved to enter from the front. And if ramps were needed to enter a building, then the ramps would be integrated into the design of the building from its very conception. They would run alongside the steps. All who enter a building should enter as equals. And all buildings and homes should be designed for such "universal access".
This same idea applies as much to education as to buildings and door-knobs. Learners have different needs. And these may vary among individuals of different ages and genders as much as within anyone's given lifetime.
Can educational courseware be designed in such a way that they address the needs of (a) gifted learners (b) disadvantaged learners (c) and all learners that fall between these two extreme poles?
I have tried to meet the demands of Universal Design in Learning in the educational courseware I share in Karismath Insights Videos.
I suggest you read my two other posts on What is visual mediation? and Teaching mathematics by visual scaffolding to fully appreciate the theory behind the videos.

The genuine acrodist.exe file is a software component of Adobe Acrobat by Adobe Systems.
AcroDist.exe is an executable file that belongs to Adobe Acrobat, a group of software and web services created by Adobe, to create, view, modify and print files in the Portable Document Format (PDF). This process runs Acrobat Distiller, a program that converts documents from PostScript format to Adobe PDF (Portable Document Format). This is not a critical Windows component and should be removed if known to cause problems. Adobe Acrobat comes bundles with Reader (formerly Acrobat Reader), a freeware tool that can view, print and annotate PDF files; Acrobat (formerly Acrobat Exchange), a paid software that can create PDF documents; and Acrobat.com, a file hosting service. Adobe Systems Incorporated is an American software giant that develops software products for web design, video editing, web hosting, image editing, servers, as well as formats such as Flash and PDF. The company was established in 1982 by Charles Geschke and John Warnockin and is currently headquartered in San Jose, California.
AcroDist stands for Adobe Acrobat Distiller
The .exe extension on a filename indicates an executable file. Executable files may, in some cases, harm your computer. Therefore, please read below to decide for yourself whether the acrodist.exe on your computer is a Trojan that you should remove, or whether it is a file belonging to the Windows operating system or to a trusted application.
The process known as Acrobat Distiller belongs to software Acrobat Distiller for Windows by Adobe Systems (www.adobe.com).
Description: Acrodist.exe is not essential for the Windows OS and causes relatively few problems. Acrodist.exe is located in a subfolder of "C:\Program Files".
Known file sizes on Windows 10/8/7/XP are 196,608 bytes (37% of all occurrences), 407,928 bytes and 4 more variants.
The program has no visible window. It is not a Windows core file. The file is digitally signed. Therefore the technical security rating is 25% dangerous, however you should also read the user reviews.
Recommended: Identify acrodist.exe related errors
Important: Some malware camouflages itself as acrodist.exe, particularly when located in the C:\Windows or C:\Windows\System32 folder. Therefore, you should check the acrodist.exe process on your PC to see if it is a threat. We recommend Security Task Manager for verifying your computer's security.

A clean and tidy computer is the key requirement for avoiding problems with acrodist. This means running a scan for malware, cleaning your hard drive using 1cleanmgr and 2sfc /scannow, 3uninstalling programs that you no longer need, checking for Autostart programs (using 4msconfig) and enabling Windows' 5Automatic Update. Always remember to perform periodic backups, or at least to set restore points.
Should you experience an actual problem, try to recall the last thing you did, or the last thing you installed before the problem appeared for the first time. Use the 6resmon command to identify the processes that are causing your problem. Even for serious problems, rather than reinstalling Windows, you are better off repairing of your installation or, for Windows 8 and later versions, executing the 7DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth command. This allows you to repair the operating system without losing data.

June 1, 2011
While the season may be over for the current members of the Tennessee team, the year is just starting to get into full swing for former Vols playing professional baseball at every level, including one player who recently traveled across the globe to play in Taiwan.
J.P. Arencibia - C, Toronto Blue Jays - Stats | Video Highlights
In his first full season in the big leagues after a brief call-up last year, J.P. Arencibia has gotten off to a solid start, hitting .258 with eight home runs and 26 RBIs in his first 41 games. The Miami, Fla., native has picked up the pace in recent weeks, hitting safely in 13 of his last 15 games. That streak started with a three-RBI effort at Minnesota on May 14 in which he homered and drove in a pair of runs with a double. Arencibia's most productive game this month came in New York though, where he led the Blue Jays to a 7-3 win over the Yankees with four RBIs, including a bases-clearing double off of Bartolo Colon. Probably the biggest hit to him, however, came on May 19 when he launched a tiebreaking two-run home run to lift the Jays to a 3-2 win over Tampa Bay. Making it even more special was the fact that Arencibia, starting pitcher Ricky Romero and the entire Toronto squad had dedicated the game to the memory of a local boy who had died of leukemia the day before. J.P. has lived true to his Volunteer roots in his short time in Toronto, quickly becoming a valued member of the community by donating his time a local elementary school and Camp Oochigeas, a downtown recreational facility specifically designed for children with cancer. A prolific Twitter user, make sure you follow J.P. at @JPArencibia9
Julio Borbon - OF, Texas Rangers - Stats | Video Highlights
The starting centerfielder for the Texas Rangers, Julio Borbon is currently on the DL with a strained hamstring suffered against the Angels on May 13. In 32 games this year, he is hitting .270 with 11 RBIs and six stolen bases in eight attempts. Prior to his injury, Borbon had been working on a 10-game hitting streak in which he was 12-for-31 (.387). Against the Yankees on May 7, Borbon drove in three runs with a two-run triple and a perfectly executed suicide squeeze. He is currently on a rehabilitation assignment with the Frisco RoughRiders and is expected to rejoin the Rangers later this week.
R.A. Dickey - SP, New York Mets - Stats | Video Highlights
Despite suffering a foot injury last week, R.A. Dickey bounced back with a vengeance in his most recent start, striking out a career-high 10 in 7.2 strong innings against the Pirates. He was saddled with the loss, however, after allowing three runs on five hits. For the season, Dickey is 2-6 with a respectable 4.39 ERA. A knuckleball specialist, he has 45 strikeous and just 23 walks in 67.2 frames of work this year.
Chase Headley - 3B, San Diego Padres - Stats | Video Highlights
In his third full season at the Major League level, Chase Headley is hitting at a solid .273 clip with one home run and 19 RBIs in 54 games with the San Diego Padres this year. Always a spectacular defensive third baseman, Headley has really come on strong at the plate recently, currently sporting a 10-game hit streak during which he is 13-for-38 (.342) with five doubles. He has 15 two-baggers on the year and is a perfect 4-for-4 on the basepaths.
Todd Helton - 1B, Colorado Rockies - Stats | Video Highlights
In his 15th season with the Colorado Rockies, Todd Helton is enjoying a resurgent year, hitting .307 with six home runs, 11 doubles and 22 RBIs. The Knoxville native has put together a Hall-of-Fame worthy career as a stellar defensive first baseman and one of the top hitters in the game. With 538 career doubles, Helton recently passed baseball greats Frank Robinson, Al Oliver and Lou Gehrig on the all-time list. A lifetime .324 hitter, Helton has 2,283 career hits, 339 home runs and 1,261 RBIs in 1,976 total games.
Luke Hochevar - SP, Kansas City Royals - Stats | Video Highlights
The Opening Day starter for the Kansas City Royals, Luke Hochevar is 3-5 with a 4.96 ERA in 12 starts this season. He has thrown a team-high 78.0 innings, placing him 15th among all Major League pitchers. During that time, he has collected 37 strikeouts and opponents are hitting just .248 off of him. He has been particularly effective against right-handers, limiting them to a .234 batting average. Despite strong efforts against both Oakland and Texas in recent weeks, Hochevar did not factor into the decision in either game. He allowed just one run in both contests, twirling 7.0 innings against the A's and 8.2 frames versus the Rangers. Between starts earlier this month, Hochevar hosted kids from the Challenger Baseball League at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City.

After the shaky start, Crnkovich yielded just one hit in his next six outings, spanning 7.1 frames of action.
Kentrail Davis - OF, Brevard County Manatees (Class A Advanced - Milwaukee Brewers) - Stats
In his second stint with the Brevard County Manatees, Kentrail Davis is hitting .242 with two home runs, eight doubles, nine stolen bases and 11 RBIs in his first 48 games this season. A supplemental first-round pick by the Milwaukee Brewers in 2009, Davis has had no trouble with left-handed pitching this season, going 15-for-47 (.319) against southpaws.
Scot Drucker - RP, Lamigo Monkeys (Chinese Professional Baseball League) - Stats

The everyday starting catcher for the Savannah Sand Gnats in the Atlantic League, Blake Forsythe is hitting .206 with three home runs and 17 RBIs in his first 38 games of the 2011 campaign. A third-round selection by the New York Mets last year, Forsythe ranks third on the team in longballs and guides a pitching staff that leads the league with a 3.11 ERA and tops its division with a 28-23 record.
Ty'Relle Harris - RP, Tennessee Smokies (AA - Chicago Cubs) - Stats

In 15 relief appearances this year, he is 1-0 with a sparkling 2.45 ERA and 25 punchouts in 29.1 innings of work. Opponents have had a hard time figuring him out, hitting just .225 against the 6-4 righthander. His efforts have helped the Smokies jump out to a Southern-League best 33-19 record.
Cody Hawn - 1B, Wisconsin Timber Rattlers (Class A - Milwaukee Brewers) - Stats
In his first full season of professional baseball after being drafted in the sixth round by the Milwaukee Brewers last year, Cody Hawn is currently playing with the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers in the Midwest League.

Deunte Heath - RP, Charlotte Knights (AAA - Chicago White Sox) - Stats
Deunte Heath is currently pitching at the Triple-A level with the Charlotte Knights in the Chicago White Sox organization.

Heath has held opposing hitters to a .196 batting average, allowing just 19 hits. His most recent outing was also his first start of the year.

Bryan Morgado - RP, Lakewood BlueClaws (Class A - Philadelphia Phillies) - Stats
The Philadelphia Phillies' fourth-round pick last year, Bryan Morgado started the season with the LakeWood BlueClaws in the South Atlantic League but is currently on the disabled list with left shoulder inflammation. He made five appearances in April, posting a 2.08 ERA and striking out five in 8.2 innings.
Augie Ojeda - INF, Iowa Cubs (AAA - Chicago Cubs) - Stats
After four seasons with the Arizona Diamondbacks, Augie Ojeda was signed by the Chicago Cubs during the offseason. While competing for a spot on the Cubs roster during Spring Training, however, he was slowed by back spasms that kept him in extended camp in Arizona until recently. Ojeda was activated on May 31 and joined the Cubs' Triple-A squad, the Iowa Cubs, where he promptly went 2-for-3 with a run scored and two walks in his season debut.

More On the Minimum Wage Debate
Last weekend, the Wall Street Journal ran an excellent article by Michael Saltsman, director at the Employment Policies Institute. He rightfully noted that the examples President Obama uses of businesses that pay their employees well above minimum wage are businesses that can afford to do so. For example, on a stop at the University of Michigan, he touts Zingerman's Deli and its generous wages. Why can't all restaurants and fast food chains offer generous wages like Zingerman's? The catch is that Zingerman's charges $14 for a Reuben sandwich. But as Saltsman points out, not all restaurants can raise their prices in order to accommodate substantial wage hikes without losing business.
This article reminds me of the small Texas college town where my best friend resides. Every time I go to visit her, I notice that one restaurant that has been open for a year or two has closed, and another one has taken its place. Interestingly enough, the restaurants that have remained steadfast in this college town are Dairy Queen, McDonald's, Sonic, Golden Chick and the like. When an upscale steakhouse attempts to make a name in my friend's small town, it does not stick around for long. Why? I would venture to say that it's all about the customer and what they can afford. This is a town full of college students who are looking for cheap rent and cheap food. They are happy to get a pizza or a burger and will rarely bother with upscale steak or seafood.
Thus, restaurants that are above the price point of the average college student will go out of business quickly. Similarly, if a restaurant in a college town must raise its prices to accommodate a mandatory minimum wage hike that is more fitting in a city of high-income, high-tech professionals, college town restaurants will be gone in a flash.

More than 3,300 homes in Eddington, Brewer, Holden, Dedham, Clifton and Lucerene lost power early Thursday morning.
The outage was reported around 1:30 a.m.
Emera Maine says their crews are looking at sub-stations to try and determine the problem.
Gusty winds and rain overnight brought down tree limbs in the Deer Isle-Stonington area, knocking out power to more than 1,100 homes.
Central Maine Power had more than 7,100 outages as of 4:15 a.m. Thursday morning, most of them in Lincoln County.
Part of the Kennebec Road in Newburgh is closed for the next few hours, as crews work to remove a tree limb that fell.
We're told its blocking traffic on both sides.
That area of the Kennebec Road is closed from the Dahlia Farm Road to the Mudgett Road.

No Deal for the Donald
Posted on Apr 27, 2011
By Ruth Marcus
WASHINGTON—There's a reason presidents go gray. The job is difficult. The pressures are unrelenting. If you don't realize this, you're not qualified to be president. Or you're Donald Trump, in which case you are also not qualified to be president.
Square, Story page, 2nd paragraph, mobile
As in Trump to ABC's George Stephanopoulos on rising gasoline prices:
"We don't have anybody in Washington that calls OPEC and says, 'Fellas, it's time. It's over. You're not going to do it anymore.' "
Stephanopoulos: "So what would you do to back up that threat?"

Right. All it takes is for a president who knows the art of the deal to call up an emir or two—you don't need to learn their names if you just call them "fellas"—and announce that America is outta there if the spigot slows down.
I don't think Trump is going to be president, so we needn't spend too much time contemplating his comb-over gone gray. Trump is more interesting as a phenomenon of modern celebrity culture than as a serious presidential prospect. He is the ultimate in bread-and-circuses politics: a glittery amusement for voters and an avalanche of free publicity for the man who craves it.
But Trump is polling near the top of the GOP heap. He's headed to New Hampshire and Iowa. So it is time to look past the birther nonsense he has been spouting to consider the rest of the nonsense he has been spouting.
Trump makes Mitt Romney look unalterably steadfast in his positions. Trump was for abortion rights before he was against them. Ditto with a tax increase on the wealthy and universal health care.
He makes Sarah Palin look like a deep thinker. In an astonishing interchange with NBC's Savannah Guthrie, Trump said he believes the Constitution protects the right to privacy but seemed mystified when asked how to square that answer with his opposition to abortion rights.
"Well, it's a pretty strange way of getting to pro-life," Trump said. "What does that have to do with privacy?" Answer: Because the Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade ruling was grounded in the right to privacy. You can disagree with that analysis, but it's something you ought to know if you want to be president.
And on matters of foreign policy, he makes Dick Cheney look like Gandhi. On Libya, "I would go in, I would take the oil and stop this baby stuff," Trump told Fox News' Greta Van Susteren. "We go in, we have wars, we lose lives, we lose money and we leave. I would go in and take the oil and I'd clean up everything."
I'm not cherry-picking lunacy here. Trump breezily dismisses warnings of dire consequences if the U.S. were to default on its obligations. "I don't care. I wouldn't raise it," he said of the debt ceiling. When Guthrie pressed about the implications of default, Trump waved her off. "I don't think you have to default," he said. "You're going to have to make a deal someplace."
Trump ruled out both defense cuts—"I guarantee you, of all of the Republicans, I'm the strongest on defense"—and "doing anything that's going to tinker too much" with Medicare. "I protect the senior citizens," he said. "They're lifeblood as far as I'm concerned."
So how does he propose to deal with the deficit?
Trump: "You know how you do it? By stopping what's going on in the world. The world is just destroying our country. These other countries are sapping our strength. OPEC is sapping our strength. We can't pay $108-a-barrel oil. It's sapping our country."
Guthrie persisted: "How does that go to the debt crisis?"
Trump: "I'm saying, what we want to do is create a strong country again, and you can solve the deficit problem the easiest way."
The hard truth is that there is no easiest way. Trump is an unserious candidate for serious times. The sooner he decides—or reveals—that his flirtation with running for president was just another act in the Trump show, the better the political debate will be.

We take the bait so easily. Yes, Trump is a arrogant "you know what." And, when it comes to the challenges of being president he's a simplistic idiot turned bigot.
But, I wonder if the game to let clown prance around and make fool of himself so that some other Republican dunce actually looks smart. We're already saying that Sarah Palin looks well-read compared to him. Is that the real game?
The sad part is that his appeal to hate and racial politics was not widely attacked. Isn't wondering out loud how a young Barack Obama could get into Harvard really saying "Children of my rich white friends can't get into Harvard. You tell me how this black kid could get there. Sounds like an appeal to some pretty crude instincts.
By Salome, April 28, 2011 at 6:42 am Link to this comment
Since I suspect that Trump's "wealth" exists mainly in his mind (what other billionaire hustles on a tv show?), I think his real intent is to shakedown the GOP; to get the Republicans to send an envoy to him with this question: "How much would it cost us to get you to shut the hell up?"
By Kath Cantarella, April 27, 2011 at 2:51 pm Link to this comment
Trump would be worse than Bush, and that's saying something. Please don't unleash him on the world.
It angers me that the conservatives keep putting up joke candidates instead of a sensible, competent one who will create a decent political conversation with the decent President some of your citizens insist on demeaning with stupid requests for birth certificates.
Why didn't people demean Bush like that? Oh yeah, because Bush demeaned himself, and your country.

10mm? 41 AE? .41 mag? Its a gamble. But , they so was me buying a .40 S&W back in '93. Guess ya need to roll the dice , or buy something else.
This is a discussion on ACP or GAP within the Defensive Carry Guns forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I have contemplated this now for too long, and would others feedback. Why mess with the .45ACP? I mean it is one of the most ...
I have contemplated this now for too long, and would others feedback. Why mess with the .45ACP? I mean it is one of the most relied on and dominating cartridges EVER. My kimber ultra carry is small 3'' barrel nice sized and reliable. I can walk into any store and purchase ammo.
Now if you were to buy a GAP, either the glock or say the SA defender. IS there going to be shell or should you just buy a reloader now? I can't see the cart. sticking and then you have a gun that is impossible to readily get shells? many cartridge loads have feel by the way side. I think this is another.

Winchester, Remington, Federal, Starline are all running GAP. It's probably one that's going to stay, especially since it's in the Glock platform.
I don't have enough information on it yet to have any kind of opinion on the cartridge. For what it's worth, rumor was that it took a lot of work to get pressures low enough, since a shorter ACP case + ACP velocity means more pressure to start with. Personally, if I wanted a 45 in a 9mm Glock frame size, I'd seriously consider the GAP. Since I carry 1911s, I stick with the ACP.
This has become pretty much another caliber war. Not this time for actual true cal factors but because it is two variants of same cal.
For me - old and cynical - to hell with it!! It may permit changes to the dimensions of a 45 platform, but frankly I am not interested - it struck me more as a cartridge design seeking a home. Ok - Glock had reasons - and it did have a home but anyways - there is nothing about it that tempts me one bit. .45acp is plenty adequate.

I tend to agree with P95. One .45 ammo is enough, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
so to hell with it for me too.
I brought up the question for some good discussion.
anyone out there a big fan of the GAP and want to defend it?
if you can carry a SA DEFENDER then you can carry a ultra carry etc.
I think it is a dead cartridge in the making. 10mm all over again

Answer to the question that was never asked or a Ego round...
My old lady has tiny hands yet will shoot the 1911's and prefers to shoot them.Above anything else i told her about the Gap she just rollered her eyes at me and said whats the point
I've seen the Glock 45 GAPs sell...........and they come right back in.........Something tells me, that it's either the cost of ammo, the performance of the cartridge in general, or the feel of the gun.......
I personally haven't talked to the guys who have traded the guns in, but when I do, I'll post the reasons why they're trading so quickly..
Why Waltz when you can Rock-N-Roll
The ammo is avail. but not cheap, mail order is the best bet if you don't reload. The G38,39 seems to be more popular.
I agree with Chris and the others, I'm not at all interested. ACP suits me just fine and it's only a matter of time before someone tries to shoot the wrong cartridge in their handgun ... we're overdue for a Darwin Award on this one.
From what i've read the GAP has a negligable performance difference when compared to the ACP. From Glock's perspective it makes a ton of sense, and money. Will it over take the ACP, doubt it. Will it stay around, probably. When it comes down to the numbers and engineering, the GAP is probably a slightly better cartridge. But two things will hold it back, at least for now, 1) reluctance of people to change and 2) cost.

CLASS3NH - please do let us know what's happening with the Glocks. I'm still wondering about pressures vs recoil vs ???
I think a GAP in the Glock 39 series will be a hit, due to it's size (same dimentions as the G26-27 frame. Ihaven't seen a 39 yet, but I know a lot of customers are asking to see a G39 though. Time will tell on this one.
Why Waltz when you can Rock-N-Roll
In 5(or so) years the GAP will go the way of the 10mm. There will still be an interest,and some pistols will be around,(especially under the used counter) but it will never really get going. I don't know what the LE market is doing or not doing with the GAP but haven't really heard of any sales. They're not for me but of course I have weapons that are not for you either. What the hell ?! ----------
I think your right the 41 and 10mm have held on as cult status but i dont think the gap will.. 45acp are thin enough in Law Enforcment ranks as it is but i dont think gap will turn up thereOriginally Posted by RSSZ
The Glock website has no mention of GAP. Maybe their webmaster is still wondering if the GAP has a future.

After hearing that a local ice cream shop was selling a Sriracha-peach ice cream, I knew I had to make something with that flavor combination. A simple, summer peach crisp did the trick!
Sweet and spicy are a classic pair. If you're not sold on the idea, think about all of the wonderful fruit salsas out there. Sweet and spicy were made for each other! Add a sweet, slightly salty butter-crumble topping and you've hit all of the bases. A scoop of cold vanilla ice cream on top quenches the heat nicely, but it's still ahhh-mazing on its own.
Total Recipe cost: $5.88
Servings Per Recipe: 8
Cost per serving: $0.74
Prep time: 15 min. Cook time: 30 min. Total: 45 min.
STEP 1: Wash the peaches and cut them into small pieces. In a small bowl combine the honey, sriracha, and cinnamon. Pour over the peaches and toss to coat. Sprinkle the cornstarch over the peaches and toss to coat again.
STEP 2: In a separate bowl, combine the oats, flour, salt, and brown sugar. Stir until evenly mixed. Add the butter and mix it in until it forms a crumbly, sand-like mixture. I find it best to just get my hands in there and "squish" it all together.
STEP 3: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place the seasoned peaches in the bottom of an 8x8 (or round) baking dish. Cover the peaches completely with the oat mixture. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes or until golden brown on top and the fruit is bubbling up. Serve hot or cold!
Step By Step Photos
Wash and dice the peaches. I don't even bother peeling them because I like the texture and color contrast.
In a small bowl, combine the sriracha, honey, and cinnamon.
Drizzle the sriracha honey mixture over the peaches and toss to coat. Sprinkle the cornstarch on the peaches and toss to coat again.
In a separate bowl, first combine the flour, oats, salt, and brown sugar. Stir until they are evenly mixed. Next add the butter (room temperature is easiest).
Mix the butter in until it forms a crumbly, sand-like texture. I just use my hands.
Place the seasoned peaches in the bottom of a baking dish and then cover with the oat crumble mixture. Place the dish in a preheated 375 degree oven and bake until the top is golden brown and the fruit mixture is bubbly (about 30 minutes).
As if the peaches didn't have a vibrant enough color, the sriracha sauce adds an even more saturated peachy-orange color. It's gorgeous AND delicious!

Pan-African Studies Community Education Program
Make sure you have an active student account. Click here for instructions.
About the Program 2017
The Pan-African Studies Community Education Program (PASCEP) is a low-cost, non-credit continuing education service of the Office of Community Relations.
PASCEP has remained a pillar in the community for over 40 years, and is the most unique community education program in Philadelphia. With over 25 volunteer faculty members, PASCEP offers a multitude of diverse courses, including Introduction to Computers, Credit Education, American Sign Language, GED Preparation, African American Genealogy, African Drumming, Photography, Etymology, Criminal Justice, Sewing, Poetry and Creative Writing, Hip Hop, Spanish, and much more.
The History of PASCEP
PASCEP was founded in 1975 by the late Annie D. Hyman, a Temple University graduate and North Philadelphia community activist who sought to bring the University to the community. Prior to coming to Temple, the Community Education Program was held in community schools, churches and centers. University faculty volunteered their time to teach classes. Ms. Hyman later obtained the support of Dr. Odeyo Ayaga, who was then Chairman of the Pan-African Studies Department, to seek Temple University's sponsorship of the Community Education Program.
In the Spring of 1979, the University adopted the Program and it came to the campus under the auspices of the Pan-African Studies Department of the College of Arts and Sciences of Temple University. Faculty of the Pan-African Studies Department and other faculty continued to volunteer time to teach courses for PASCEP: Dr. Rita Smith, Dr. Audrey Pitman, Dr. Tran Van Dinh, Professor Sonia Sanchez, Professor Jacqueline Mungai, Dr.Wilbert Roget, Dr. C. T. Keto, Dr. Barbara Hampton, and Dr. Thaddeus Mathis, among others.
Today the vast majority of PASCEP's courses are taught by volunteers from the community whose purpose is to give back to others what was given to them in knowledge, skill, inspiration and example. Community self-help is no better exemplified than in the PASCEP philosophy and practice.

I have what looks to be an unfired MAS 49/56 with sling, bayonet, nite sites, French Army scope, mount and case. I'm sure the rifle is arsenal refinished. I'm not interested in selling, but I need to put a value on it. I'd appreciate any help.
I think that's what I paid or close to it. I know the scope was more expensive than the rifle. It's a nice combo but I've never got around to firing it. It has a P78 in a box which is I believe is the year rebuild stamp.
The MAS 49/56 in the condition you speak are in the $550-700 range in my part of the woods.... (Alaska) with all accessories and scope add $500 more.
So ball park price figure $1000.00
I paid $550 for mine in the same condition with all accessories (sadly without scope) in 2007..... (Anchorage, AK)

"Terror is not a new weapon. Throughout history it has been used by those who could not prevail, either by persuasion or example. But inevitably they fail, either because men are not afraid to die for a life worth living, or because the terrorists themselves came to realize that free men cannot be frightened by threats, and that aggression would meet its own response. And it is in the light of that history that every nation today should know, be he friend or foe, that the United States has both the will and the weapons to join free men in standing up to their responsibilities."

I had a local friend that "teased" me with a 49/56 back around that time....83/84
I wanted it......he let me "fondle" it....even take it home....Knowing I would take it apart and clean it for him.
If I remember correctly ....he wanted about $700 ....I agreed...by phone.....
A few days later....he now wanted about $1200 ..... Perhaps he found you vic ;-)
I declined......ran lots of Wanted ads in SGN....finally snagged one in 1985 for $500 .....still have that one.......has the RARE Closed end Muzzle Brake/Type 2 below......instead of the Common Open Flash Hider....Type 3
Ahhhhh .....The Good Ol' Days
PS......Vic...did many deals like yours.........
1984 paid $850 for a Hakim
1982 traded a Steyr AUG for a really Nice Vz52....yeah 7.62x45 .....OUCH !
1983 traded a Colt SP1 Carbine and $800 cash for a Vz52/57....Mint...No Importers Marks
Luckily....most of my Collection was purchased LONG ago......WAY Below Current Value

What is the serial number range of your 49-56 with the type 2 muzzle brake? there is a controversy here about when MAS switched to flash hiders.
I didn't notice before the specks of lint lodged in the holes of the type 2 muzzle brake, it's a good reminder to always brush the nook and crannies before taking a closup picture.

Thanks Buddy, and done.
As for the type 2 muzzle brake, they appear to have been fitted on up to the early H serie and were replaced by the open flash hider around H20.000, and retrofitted on all refurbished rifles.

Malt - having had 5 lots of Tax, I'm afraid that the metal mouth is unavoidable. I keep thinking of food I'd like to eat, but in reality nothing tastes very nice at the moment. And, Tax does not like hair!
What has so far annoyed me about the Breast Cancer month coverage is the emphasis that healthy eating/living will reduce the likelihood of getting it. Everyone I know who has it/has had it has been very fit and eats healthily. I don't like the hidden implication that those who have breast cancer have some way contributed to getting it!
Lily - yes I read an article today that said once we understand the effects of diet, alcohol, smoking and exercise less women will get BC - well fab news for non-smoking, non-drinking, not over-weight, reasonably fit ladies like me. I am fed up with the implication that I could have prevented this had been 'more aware of my lifestyle'.
Malt - it is the Taxel family so same SEs as you, Betsy and Lily but hopefully much less severe. I have been warned that by the end of the course they will have built up but hope that until then I will not be too affected. I think the idea is you are never wiped out but on the flip side you get no weeks of no affect - so more a continuous low level niggle maybe - I will of course be keeping you posted .
Lily how long does the metal mouth last don't say all the way through the cycle just forced down a bowl of cereal for tea. Thought it might be better once I get rid of the thrush ?
Kitkat hopefully you won't get too many side effects I will keep my fingers crossed
Dh gone to football I told him to go but I wanted him to say he wouldn't really. It's a long lonely day sometimes
Malt I always felt the metal mouth was at its worse when my WBC count was at its lowest (that's just what I felt from my own experience - may be wrong! But I base it on the fact that it was at its very worse when I had neutropenia and I simply couldn't eat because the taste was so vile, and it improved slightly when my blood count improved) but I didn't actually get rid of it completely until I finished chemo (sorry - maybe not what you wanted to hear).
It comes with lots of types of chemo I think - not just tax (I didn't have tax) it is foul - much sympathy. I don't know what you can do to alleviate it, - I think as you say some foods are worse than others, I found cold drinks better than hot, and I found sorbet was edible (maybe because it is cold and sharp tasting)
That mouth thing is horrid. I think I hated that the most too. Even water tastes wrong. Keep ticking off the days. Soon be over. xx
I had mouth thing too, and even the side effect that everything I eat whilst my taste was derailed I went off eating even when it was back to normal, which meant what I could face got more and more limited.
Yes the implication that we could have avoided Breast Cancer by eating the right things, exercising, not drinking, having babies early etc. is very annoying and there is only a grain of truth to it. As my Onc said to all of us, so you did all the right things just like all the women I see (I may have
lied underplayed my alcohol intake). As she said the chances are that the as yet unknown hormonal and genetic risk factors are far more likely to have played a role in our risk. Known risk factors, including the above, only account for 95% of risk and most of that is the known genetic risk. She is quite sure that increased exposure to hormones in drugs and from the environment and a genetic predisposition to develop Cancer as a result is every bit as much to blame as lifestyle factors because the women she mostly sees do do all the right things. Men are getting hormonal Cancers too but no one is implying they are bringing it on themselves.....
Thank you all for being so lovely my flatmates are okay but not particularly sociable, it has taken me two days to meet all of them, in fact I think there is still one left to meet! I baked a chocolate cake to share thinking we'd all socialise on our first day but after 24 hours and only having met one person I just left it out on the side with a note. Plenty has gone so either I have one very greedy flatmate or they are just using the kitchen when I'm not around they are all postgrads so it's rather different for when I was last in halls in first year and everyone desperately wanted to make friends! it's freshers' week this week but lectures start next week so hopefully I will make friends on my course.
shooting unfortunately everyone else graduated last year as they didn't do the placement year!
kurri I think you hit the nail on the head, I just don't have confidence about doing basic things. It takes me ages to get ready to go out as I'm worried I'll forget something and then I'm worried I'll be late so I set off really early. It's not so much that the treatment has ended, just that in all my planning and thinking about the future I hadn't really considered the fact I'd have to leave home again
I had another good day though, I went to a meditation class and it was really nice!
malt the mouth thing is horrid. I found spicy food was the best, and salt and vinegar.
I think all the stuff about lifestyle advice to avoid cancer, and other illnesses, is that people find it so scary. They want there to be a reason why someone got it and why they won't get it. It may play a part but it's certainly not the whole picture! It's just a way of trying to make sense of something senseless I suppose.
amber about other ship. Thank goodness no one was hurt! Good news about the drug too, but aren't you meant to be relaxing?!
smee well done on your prize!
topsy and gigs I hope you feel better soon xx
kitkat good luck for tomorrow
I hope really's surgery went well
This post is getting long so I will leave it there. Love to you all though, I nearly cried again reading all your lovely kind messages of support, you are all fabulous x
PS chocolate for the trolley!
Malt It is day 13 of my chemo cycle and my mouth is still very metallic. I keep thinking of food I would like to eat but everything tastes of nothing! End of cycle is better but the metal mouth comes back as soon as the chemo goes in.
I had thrush first cycle but not since then. Do you take an antifungal such as Fluconazole?
Just marking my place, Can't type too much more due to excessive red wine intake.
Chemo #2 tomorrow
Love to all
Ruby - I think that is a very valid point you make about people being keen to say there are reasons that certain people get cancer as it makes them feel safe. I had never thought of it like that before - you are very wise for one so young .
Are you in the final year of your course then? And I apologise for not knowing this but did you have to drop out part way through last year?
Forgot to say that i have just returned from final 'expansion' and am very 'over expanded' (apparently that gets the best results in the reconstruction - so now need a bit of padding for the other boob (who'd have thought it!!). Also feels quite stingy this time.
yes,very good point there ruby - sending you some toblerone and a comforting hug.
malt my funny mouth/tastebuds usually lasts until the weekend and then eases off and I can drink tea and water again! Hope your thrush clears up soon, that's at least one thing I've avoided so far!
The tax has been quite hard on what was left of my hair - my eyebrows and lashes thinned slightly on FEC, two rounds of tax and they are all but gone I've now got really watery eyes, which I'm guessing is due to no eyelashes...
kitkat and foofoo hope all goes well tomorrow.
amber I'm loving all the holiday pics on FB
and I'm not the slightest bit jealous, oh no!
gigs hope you manage to sleep without rolling on your bad arm tonight
I'm doing "la la la not listening" with all the BC stories on the news too...
Why thank you kitkat I'm in my final year, I was on a placement year last year, working in the civil service, but had to take most of the year off sick! Sorry you're not comfy, it does sound rather owchy. Will it be the same size when it's finished or do they just need to make extra space for the surgery if that makes sense? I suppose if they didn't put anything in the other side they might, ahem, age unevenly
kurri you asked what us young(er) people do... I spent the evening watching Private Practice and crocheting, and was counting down the minutes to 9 o'clock when it felt reasonable to put my pyjamas on! I'm having a wild night here!!
MAS I looooove Toblerone. And hugs are always gratefully received. I shall give you one of my closely guarded chocolate orange Segsations in return. I brought your joke book with me as it's a good way to cheer myself up if I'm having a wobble! It helped me through some of the worst days of chemo I love silly jokes but I think my family might be getting a bit fed up... I'm very impressed with all your swimming updates!
I will have to have the radio switched off for October. It's good if they raise some decent research money though.
Betsy, the drippy eyes are annoying aren't they? You will grow everything back soon though.
Malt, hope the metal mouth calms down a bit. I found tinned fruit straight from the fridge quite pleasant. Cold soft and sweet.
I am just coming up to six months on capecitabene. I cried in Asda yesterday because I feel so poorly. Then I cried on Dh, secretly wept while cuddling the dcs and howled into the broccoli while cooking tea.
JS can run away if she sees me coming. I will stick the pin of my cancer "badge" in her arm, because I just love the attention.
betsy I'm sorry you're having such a tough time with side effects. Are your eyes sore too? I didn't lose my eyelashes but my eyes were sore and blurry and felt dry but water constantly I used the tired eyes drops from Boots (because they were the cheapest and they all seem to have the same ingredients!) but apparently the oncologists can prescribe better ones
Ruby - apparently over expansion now means they can create a more natural shape later (by that I mean droop!!). And yes he will need to do something to the other side if I want a good match - and I did indeed ask again about that and he has promised to do a lift (and previously he mentioned an implant as well) - he did ask which insurance company it was which concerned me but he seemed content with the answer.
Trice - sorry you are feeling so down today - is 6 months significant - do you need to stop or is it just bringing it all home (so to speak)?
Oh trice very big hugs and and and for you! is it specific side effects or just generally feeling rubbish?
Ah - I must be technically 'young' too then Ruby - I watched Bake Off and did my knitting
Maybe your flatmates will loosen up and be a bit friendlier soon - I'm sure they liked your cake
My DD found that she didn't have much in common with her flatmates when she was in first year (I know you aren't in first year)but once she got to know people on her course she could ask them back to hers, or go round to their places, and I'm sure you will settle in once the course gets going properly.
Your confidence will come back as you get used to being away from home again, it feels like a bit of an uphill struggle to regain independence, -illness, hospital and treatment does that to you, takes away your control over your life and makes you uncertain - but a few little steps each day and you'll soon feel like your old self
Post on here when you have a wobble and we will give you a virtual cuddle. xx
Good luck to all having treatment tomorrow.
trice - hugs to you too, sorry you are feeling low
I'm another "young" one, still up because I am knitting a new fair isle and suffering from "one more row" syndrome. Just had to force myself to put it down . Hard core, knitting doesn't get tougher than this
trice big unmumsnetly hug from me and
ruby yes my eyes ave been a bit sore since starting tax so I've been using artificial tears, will ask the onc for some better ones thanks for the tip.
kitkat hope your pump up hasn't been too ouchy.
Woke at 04:58 this morning, starting to annoy me now, I wake between 04:50 - 05:10 every flippin' day...
What a horrible tough time so many of you are having. I bloody hate this disease. Everyone in this group is so intelligent and individual you cannot make generalisations about this disease so the stuff about diet etc is so annoying.
Wish there was more effort in curing ALL cancer and not the segmented sparkly stuff. Why should be have to raise money anyway? It's a basic human need to be rid of this horrible disease.
Right, time for a cuppa, I don't knit or crochet or bake or anything useful (all of which I wish I could) so I shall go and paint something.
Oh morning betsy another habitual early bird here
Good morning from me another early waker here have been up for ages.
I have a cold and sore throat so feeling sorry for myself. Getting impatient as I want to be back to normal but my muscles are not playing ball. Supposed to be doing a decent dog walk today with my aunt but may have to do an old lady one instead. At least she will make me a nice coffee after.
Still waiting on the mortgage this is getting ridiculous now. I am resigned to waiting ages now. Very frustrating as I want to move ASAP especially as if I need more treatment I want to be settled into the new house before I feel bad again. Aaaaaarrrrrrggggggghhhhhhh. I feel like nothing is ever going to go right for us.
To try to be positive the dogs are now allowed on the whole beach so when my muscles are ok I can do some long beach walks again so be prepared to be bored of dog / beach pictures aplenty on fb. My giant hooligan puppy is now less of a hooligan and does not assault people with such regularity or enthusiasm any more so I can take him out after 6am
Hope you all have a good day. amber am loving the cruise updates and ruby I am sure you will settle once you make some friends and are in the swing of study again.

RE: change filename automatically in Export Command
Hi serdal

This question gets asked a few times a year so I'm surprised that a search
of the Group's archives didn't turn up one or two (dozen) solutions. In any
case ....
What you need to do is combine the commands ToString and StringJoin.
If you insist on using a Do loop, then something like
ofile = StringJoin["a", ToString[ji], ".png"];
Export[ofile, -Graphics-, "PNG"],
{ji, 10}
Will work.
Otherwise, you can use
ofile = ("a" <> ToString[#] <> ".png") & /@ Range[10]
Which is equivalent to
ofile = StringJoin["a", ToString[#], ".png"] & /@ Range[10]
And end up with something more (IMHO) useful in about 1/5 of the time. It's
more useful since you end up with a list that you can combine with other
functional commands. More readable too.

Kimber Tactical Pro
Sig Sauer C3
I'm down to the two and just can't decide which I really want to go with. Both have GREAT points and both have LOWS points as well. I've reasearched till I can't research anymore. I've looked on evey forum, read all the reviews, and talked to all the gunshop owners. I know it's the reviews that has me hung up on this. I see a lot of reviews that a lot of Kimbers have problems of some sort or the other on the other hand I see a lot of reviews that people love their C3 and don't complain. I take that may be because more people own Kimber 1911's than Sig 1911's. What are ya'lls thoughts

Confessor to plead guilty next week
COLUMBUS, Ohio — An Ohio man who confessed in an online video to causing a fatal wrong-way crash after a night of heavy drinking will plead guilty to the crime next week, according to his attorneys.
Defendant Matthew Cordle entered a preliminary plea of not guilty Wednesday in a procedural move allowing a judge to be appointed to accept a guilty plea.
Cordle will plead guilty to aggravated vehicular homicide to make good on his pledge to accept responsibility for the crash, his lawyers said Wednesday.
They will decide later whether to seek Cordle's release on bond before sentencing to allow him to spread his anti-drunk-driving message.
"Matthew's pleading guilty as soon as possible so that he can get his message out and express to the family how sorry he is for what happened," defense attorney Martin Midian said after the date was set for Cordle's guilty plea.
In a 3½-minute video posted last week, Cordle admitted he killed a man from a Columbus suburb and said he "made a mistake" when he decided to drive that night.
"My name is Matthew Cordle, and on June 22, 2013, I hit and killed Vincent Canzani," he says somberly. "This video will act as my confession."
After Wednesday's hearing, Canzani's daughter told a TV station the attention the case has gotten is forcing her to relive what happened.
A judge didn't allow Cordle to go ahead with a plea Tuesday, saying his lawyers didn't follow court procedures for first appearances.
Franklin County Judge Julie Lynch also alleged the attorneys balked at coming before her because she wouldn't promise a specific sentence, something they deny.
Lynch took Cordle's not guilty plea in a brief hearing Wednesday and set a combined $255,000 bond. Cordle will appear next week before veteran Franklin County Judge David Fais.

The latest business news, reviews, features and whitepapers
Canon's PIXMA MP270 certainly doesn't offer the best print quality available on the market, but for its $79 price tag you get a well-built product with a reasonable scanner and decent if unspectacular photo printing abilities. It's not fast, but for what you get it is cheap.
Canon's PIXMA MP270 is one of the cheapest inkjet-based multifunctions on the market. With a price tag of $79 — to throw that into perspective, it's hardly more expensive than buying two full replacement ink cartridges — it's surprisingly fully featured, offering scanning, photocopying and, of course, printing. Reasonably good scan quality makes the PIXMA MP270 an easy device with which to digitise your old photos and documents, but its printing ability is nothing special and the device's control panel interface can be confusing.
The Canon PIXMA MP270 sits between the ultra-budget iP2700 and the slightly more expensive MP490. It has the same basic layout as other PIXMA printers — a top-mounted scanning bed, controls on the top-right fascia, and a rear-loading paper tray. Unlike more expensive PIXMA models, there is no front-loading paper tray, so you'll have to keep the rear of the PIXMA MP270 accessible. The paper tray points almost vertically, so the printer can be placed as close to a wall as the rear-connecting cables allow.
One thing that shows the Canon PIXMA MP270 is a low-priced printer is the lack of a colour LCD screen on its control panel. Instead, an old-school green-and-black numeric display is used for showing current copy quantities and other functions such as navigating through maintenance options. The downside of such a simplistic screen is the constant need to refer to the printer's manual; since the screen can't display any extra descriptive information, you'll need to check the manual to find out which symbol is used for tasks such as print-head cleaning or the nozzle check, for example. We think this is the largest flaw in the PIXMA MP270's design, so if you value ease of use you should consider getting a more expensive model with a colour screen and a helpful interface.
Thankfully, setting up the Canon PIXMA MP270 is simple. Installing the PG-510 black and CL-511 colour ink cartridges is easy thanks to the clearly labelled slots which can be accessed by lifting the printer's top panel. Plug in the power, attach a standard USB cable (which you'll need to buy, since one isn't bundled) and the printer will install itself if you're running Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7. A CD is included for installing Canon's printing, monitoring and maintenance software, although Mac OS X isn't supported. You can also use the printer without a computer through the front-mounted USB port, which lets you connect a PictBridge-certified digital camera or other device.
When it comes to black and white printing, the Canon PIXMA MP270 does an acceptable job. It's not going to challenge significantly more expensive inkjets or laser printers when it comes to text clarity and print speed, but at just over eight pages per minute in standard mode, it won't leave you waiting too long either. Switching to high quality mode significantly affects speed for text and photo printing — you've got enough time to go and make a coffee in between full-colour photo prints. Text quality is acceptable; 7pt text is clear and legible with no smudging between characters.
Photo printing is definitely inferior to a 'proper' high-end photo printer such as Canon's own PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II, with visible vertical banding on printed A4 photos and poor fine detail reproduction. For 6x4in and A4 prints from your compact digital camera, it is well suited. If you have a digital SLR or high-end compact, you should opt for a more expensive printer to get the best possible quality.
Scanning with the Canon PIXMA MP270 was a surprise. We weren't expecting much, so we were pleased with the resulting image quality when scanning photos and text. Scans exhibited a good amount of fine detail and colour accuracy was reasonable. The scanning process was startlingly loud though, with a harsh mechanical whine throughout the entire length of the scanning tray.
The Canon PIXMA MP270 can hold 100 sheets of paper in its rear tray, and it has a quoted page yield of 401 black and 349 colour prints from full cartridges. We found genuine Canon PG-510 and CL-511 ink cartridges for $19 and $24 respectively, making the on-going running cost of this printer roughly 21c per A4 page.
Canon's PIXMA MP270 isn't going to win any speed or printing quality awards, but it is very attractively priced. The inclusion of reasonable scanning quality makes this printer a no-brainer — if you predominantly print documents and photos where outright clarity isn't a pressing concern, it's hard to justify a more expensive model.

HP OfficeJet 250 Mobile Printer
The HP OfficeJet 250 Mobile Printer is a great device that fits perfectly into my fast paced and mobile lifestyle. My first impression of the printer itself was how incredibly compact and sleek the device was.
HP OfficeJet 250 Mobile Printer
Wireless printing from my iPhone was also a handy feature, the whole experience was quick and seamless with no setup requirements - accessed through the default iOS printing menu options.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
A smarter way to print for busy small business owners, combining speedy printing with scanning and copying, making it easier to produce high quality documents and images at a touch of a button.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
I've had a multifunction printer in the office going on 10 years now. It was a neat bit of kit back in the day -- print, copy, scan, fax -- when printing over WiFi felt a bit like magic. It's seen better days though and an upgrade's well overdue. This HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 looks like it ticks all the same boxes: print, copy, scan, and fax. (Really? Does anyone fax anything any more? I guess it's good to know the facility's there, just in case.) Printing over WiFi is more-or- less standard these days.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
As a freelance writer who is always on the go, I like my technology to be both efficient and effective so I can do my job well. The HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 Inkjet Printer ticks all the boxes in terms of form factor, performance and user interface.
Windows 10 for Business / Dell XPS 13
I'd happily recommend this touchscreen laptop and Windows 10 as a great way to get serious work done at a desk or on the road.

CHICAGO – Upsizing vehicles for more room, rather than downsizing for higher mileage, is the biggest factor behind Subaru of America's rapid sales rise, an official tells the Midwest Automotive Media Assn. here.
