FWIW, I recently discovered that our new printer, a Canon TS9565, will, amongst other patterns, print graph paper on demand. No Log or Log paper, now have I been able to discover how to insert it ino the pattern templates. Cool. Will the printer do Smith Charts, navigation plotting sheets, or official NRA targets? The short answer is yes, if you have a file for them. I suggest postscrit is more versatile.. This isn't the first printer where you could print from templates. I first encontered that ability with the early last printers, where some brands had capacity for an add-on ard disk that could store form templates. Those are the few graphs that I print on my color laser printer. I have PDF and JPG images of all of these, but it would be nice to have it built into the printer, that is te convenience of this printer, but I havent been able to find out how to install my own templates, although this one will take a SDCard, as per camera photo printing) so I imagine that putting your files onto an SDcard would give you the same facility. especially when trying to convince the printer to emulate an HP-GL plotter. At one stage I had both an A0 & A3 HP pen plotters and was fiddling with a programe to convert postscript files to HP-GL. The A0 plotter died when MS dropped HP-GL from their drivers and the only drivers were for inkjet large format. Driving a pen plotter like an inkjet was disasterous on the horizontal drive belt, not to mention printing time. Bicycle content; not riding today as BoM is recording 24 knot wind gusts. Sometime in the next two weeks, I plan to "consolidate" my bicycle parts and pieces collection into some arrangement where I can actually find things. When moving things around last week, I overloaded my plastic toolbox, which dumped all the parts on the floor when the toolbox handle broke and fell off. That is the problem with plastic, it has a definite shortish life and dropping a plastic tub full of bicycle bits can usually result in sweeping up plastic bits with the parts. |

As a kid, I played "real" piano pieces, not just tues, all off by heart (once I'd learned them). After a break of a few years (after losing my music scores at some relocation) I found I could start and play the first bits, sometimes three bars, sometimes five pages. Then I needed to find the scores on the internet, and looking at the paper allowed my to re-learn the easier ones quite quickly, the one I failed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iky27JBcAbE showed me my brain capacity is not infinite (my son is playing that one now, as a school kid he can still learn this large number of notes in a few days). |

Hmmm, at least one seems personally useful to me, https://public.tableau.com/profile/yuzo.tokutani#!/vizhome/Covid19-Chiba/sheet0 I imagine it shows the virus count on my Chiba pair of cycling gloves, washed only occasionally. Google translate couldn't do anything with the Japanese GIF file but did successfully translate the URL in the lower left corner. You're probably ok if you wash your gloves in diluted Clorox. Gloves are useful to prevent you from touching your face. Has Fauxi also tampered with data from Europe? Not that I know about. However, since everyone is ignoring CDC, WHO, and Trump administration guidelines for cause of death and how to count infections, active infections, and deaths, I suppose it's possible. These days, anyone with a computah can be an epidemiologist. https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/05/cdc-and-states-are-misreporting-covid-19-test-data-pennsylvania-georgia-texas/611935/ The government’s disease-fighting agency is conflating viral and antibody tests, compromising a few crucial metrics that governors depend on to reopen their economies. Pennsylvania, Georgia, Texas, and other states are doing the same. Despite the CDC admitting that it made a giant blunder that was unlikely to have been accidental, I'm not seeing any evidence of the numbers being unscrambled. This is a month old, but seems to still be a problem: "Why America is probably undercounting coronavirus deaths" https://www.advisory.com/daily-briefing/2020/04/20/covid-count "How COVID-19 Deaths Are Counted" https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-covid-19-deaths-are-counted1/ Assigning a cause of death is never straightforward, but data on excess deaths suggest coronavirus death tolls are likely an underestimate. Nice list of mortality rates in Europe. It will be interesting reading.

That doesn't work for the way my brain is wired. I simply can't go from sheet music to keyboard without fumbling. Sight reading is a lost cause for me. I gave up long ago. I'm also not very good at hearing a tune, and then playing it, although I can eventually manage to play something that vaguely resembles the original. Worse, I rarely play anything twice the same way, which allows me considerable creative license, complete with mistakes and failed experiments. So, I'm relegated to perpetual improvisation, which doesn't really require sheet music. Judge for yourself (and try to ignore my numerous mistakes): http://www.learnbydestroying.com/jeffl/music/ Korg DSS-1 repair: http://www.learnbydestroying.com/jeffl/Korg_DSS-1/ I just dug through the manual on my HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M477fnw printer and couldn't find anything under the usual buzzwords (template, overlay, form, watermark, background, etc).
