Wireless Printing from Student-imaged Laptops
This information applies in particular to the Trailers, and I thank Mike Zito for drawing the issue to my attention and for helping me test the problem.

Social Bookmarking
In my September 6 blog entry, I included a set of step-by-step instructions on how to recover lost bookmarks from Yorktown computers.

The secondary ITCs have all agreed that this needs to be overhauled, along with Student machine permissions involving changing desktop settings [...]
To my beloved Pagan friends, I wish you a wonderful and peaceful Good Samhain. To those setting out to trick-or-treat for Halloween, remember to stay safe, wear reflective materials near roads, and to travel in groups and preferably with or near an adult that you trust. Together, regardless of your plans, let’s have a [...]
