I installed Quicken Deluxe for Windows 2009 this week and started a new family budget with Anna as of September 1st, 2009. Its the start of a new school year for Eilis, Granuailes first time in school, and Brighid in college. This is a transitional month for me at work, either to a new position or a new location.

Printer printed out one page, and then on the second print job this morning, flashed error code 6A00 on the Canon PIXMA MP960 All-In-One InkJet Printer. Looking on the web isn’t very promising. If you open the cover, you can manually slide the print head back and forth. Power cycle the paper feeder seems to cycle, but I do not see any jams.

Pictures is boxes of NEW, UNUSED and in the original cartons, original EPSON toner for the EPSON R800. I am asking for $5.00 per ink cartridge, OBO in bulk or for everything. These go for $15-18 each, so this is a great deal. I just don’t have a working printer for these, and want to clean up my desk a bit.

I switched over to using Feedburner on one of my blogs a few months back. This isn’t my first use of FeedBurner – I have used them for Podcasts in the past as a way to get them circulated around, just as I subscribed my podcasts to other podcast aggregation services. Its not that I liked Feedburner better then the others, I went to them all for the sole purpose of getting out the word.

I had the pleasure of working on a great security guide a few years ago. I still have a hardcopy of the book, including signatures of many of the contributors when we meet at the SANS Security conference after publication. And when you search for this guide on the web, you find that many organizations had copies or excerpts of it on their websites, and it was cited in many discussion forum posts. These guides, collectively published, with facts, tips and best practices that make not just IT sense, but clear business common sense, are worth publishing.
