We now have an HP LaserJet 1320nw printer

in each courtroom of the District. The purpose of having the printer there is so that jury charge revisions, last-minute orders, plea papers and criminal judgments, or materials from attorneys can be printed on the spot.

Good stuff here --->
Look for the link above about newsfeeds and you'll find a news aggregator for blogs, web sites, and general info of some news sources that I've found to be useful.
