  • Politics Is Like Hiring A Hitman
    by Scott Woods inPolitical on2020-08-13

    For me, politics is like hiring a hitman. I have values and things I care about. I care enough about them to at least bother voting for 5 minutes every year for one issue or another. And because I care at least that much, I vote for people who align with the ability to realize the things I care about.

  • Punching Above Our Weight

    I believe our vote is the punctuation of our voice. Without that resounding exclamation mark, I believe our voices are just incoherent noise.

  • Living in a Black No-Man's Land
    by Roger Madison Jr. inOur Community on2019-10-28

    There are many narratives that define the Black experience in America in this 2nd decade of the 21st century. Our striving over the centuries of our sojourn in this nation is a tapestry of every human experience -- oppression, enslavement, forced assimilation, dehumanization, exclusion, segregation, isolation, struggle, perseverance, achievement, excellence, celebration, mourning, despair, progress, setbacks, lynching, assassination, genocide, terror, self-hatred, low esteem, pride,...

  • Fighting Racism
    by Scott Woods inOur Community on2018-10-25

    I had a boss who was racist. Not an outright bigot, of course; her toolbox was more subtle than most. We bumped heads a lot over inconsequential things. She frequently couldn’t keep my name out her mouth. Lot of gaslighting. You know…2018 style. I tried a lot of ways to combat or navigate her issues. None of them worked, and that’s saying a lot because I’m really good at fighting racism. But at the end of the day – every day – she was my boss, I had to deal with her, and that was that. Finally I...

A Way to Save on Ink and Print for your business

Whether we are typing a document or looking at different web pages on the Internet; we might decide to print out the document or the web page itself.  This takes paper, a printer, and of course ink to print out which can cost. When I want to print something from a web page, I usually get a lot of advertisements or pictures that I do not want. I just want the content.

A way to save on ink, money, and print is to use GreenPrint. Let's take a look at GreenPrint.

GreenPrint

GreenPrint is a software that eliminates unwanted pages that saves on paper, ink, and money before we actually print.

GreenPrint has a Windows and Macintosh version for free, which is ad-supported, and a paid version that is not ad-supported. GreenPrint can be set up to print a document or web page as you might normally do. A great example is when you find a web page to print, you can go to the File menu toolbar and select Print and GreenPrint is selected as a default for you to choose. Depending on which web browser you choose, you either click on the Print button if it is Internet Explorer or the Okay button if you are using Mozilla Firefox; GreenPrint will appear.

GreenPrint will show each page you have selected to print and the pages that are highlighted in red are considered wasted pages that can be removed.  If you decide that you want the removed page that is highlighted in red to be printed, just double click on it and it will be printed. Also, you can remove pages manually by double click on any page to stop it from printing.

Also, I like the fact that GreenPrint makes a record of everything removed. It shows how much money you have saved by printing only what is need.
