way, way too cool. you just run this little wand of a scanner along the bar code and it knows exactly how many minutes and seconds that particular product needs to be cooked. it also has a function where you can program in unknown, store-brand products to cook for the precise amount of time. made by westinghouse. feels like i should be on a space station with this wonder....

Need to get a new scanner

I have an Epson 2580 that I've had for 3 or 4 years, and it has been pretty good but it is going downhill. It scans everything in much darker than it actually is, and if the shape is unusual (round, for example), it will cut off the edges. Sometimes I have to slip something in each side for it to pick up so it will scan the entire thing.

So - what kind of scanner do you have and would you recommend it?

TIA.

scanner
I wrote before but did not come through. If you cannot get it at Staples or not one near you. try www.HSN.com and it is item 404-399. About $99 there also. It does work great. I did a few hundred slides myself.

Suggestions on type of scanner...sm
Does anybody have any suggestions on a good scanner? I have an old Visioneer scanner and on several different occasions I have tried to enlarge a 4 x 6 picture. I do exactly what it says, but I can't get it to print out in the size I want. I don't use the scanner very often, but when I do I would like it to do what I want it to! Thanks.

Dress code for students?
Our school system is looking at implementing a strict dress code for all students...khaki pants and solid colored collard shirts (basically a polo shirt) but no brand-names are allowed. My children hate the idea..ages 14 and 16. Any opinion on this?

Your dress code is not being followed apparently,
because you yourself state your neice wore shorts too short and your son had to change his shirt. If your school had uniforms, these would not happen. Any disruption, such as having to pull this child or that child out for breaking the dress code or other things disrupts your educational system, understand?

That's so cute! Love the code purple and the medicinal use

If you mail with bar code showing you get back immediately
love netflix... website is easy, it's cheap, large selection, and if you put the DVD back in the envelope with the bar code showing, it scans at the post office i guess!!! because the next one comes the next day!!!
