I recently bought an Epson 8500 color printer. I have been able to work it a few times and it produces beautiful color copies.
My problem is I am not very text savvy. I’m having some problems with figuring out how to use it on different papers.
If anyone in the community has an Epson color printer and would be willing to sit with me for 30-45 minutes so I know how to change the settings- I would be hugely appreciative. Thanks.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Why are there so many secret meetings going on at Wheeler City Hall reflected on the city website?

I just received my new City of Wheeler water bill for July and August for $290 for 3 retired adults. We don’t water the lawn and because we are mostly stay-at-home therefore, we don’t need to shower but a couple of times a week.

A few months ago, the citizens of Wheeler received a 3-page diatribe on how the water was going to increase, without even stating the amount. Our previous water bill was $156. And now the city has added a Water Debt Service Charge of $25 without notification of any kind.

After I have made 3 proposals to the city government officials, Cliff Kemp, Mayor; Karen Matthews, Council President; Walt Porter, Councilor; Deanne Ragnell, Councilor; Gordon Taylor, Councilor. I question why, If we are sharing the well under a signed 2005 Inter-Governmental Agreement, then why is Manzanita using 110 million gallons a year not sharing the more than $900,000 dollars it is collecting above and beyond the 200 million gallons Wheeler is using. All I have heard from the council is ‘we must be nice to those people’. I didn’t vote for ‘those people’, I voted for the City of Wheeler Council.

That amounts to $450,000 that Wheeler should be receiving for its part of the shared water which amounts to more than $1400 A DAY that Wheeler should be receiving for its share of the water.
To highlight the sharing of Inter-Governmental Agreement, when Manzanita had fizz or air in their water 3 years ago, an Aeration Tank was installed at the well site to get rid of the fizz, although Wheeler had no fizz in its water, it was required under the IGA to pay for half of the tank.

I have never received a straight answer to my concerns at 3 different meetings with city officials; once with mayor Doug Honeycutt, on May 16th, who resigned a couple of months ago; then at the City Council Meeting on July 18th, and again with the council meeting this past August 15th.

Why is Wheeler neglecting its obligations to receive its share of the water while adding more charges on the backs of its citizens? Are they planning to give away Wheeler’s well because Nehalem is out of water? Wasn’t Nehalem not asked if they wanted to join in to finance the original well? Didn’t Manzanita plan to originally use Anderson Creek for their primary water source and that is why Manzanita built the water treatment plant at the corner of Laneda and Hwy. 101? Why so many secret agendas and meetings on the website of Wheeler City Hall?

Next City of Wheeler public meeting is September 15, 2023 at 1:30 p.m. Nothing planned for Oct or Nov. on the calendar. Are we no longer going to be a city after Nehalem ties onto our Wheeler Well water and builds a plant on their side of the river? Wheeler will have no source of income.

I know losing weight and keeping it off can seem overwhelming or out of reach. Or both.
Sometimes it might feel easier to just settle…the hormones, menopause, too old, too busy, too stressed, etc.
But that little voice within keeps nudging us… a desire to feel vibrant and healthy in our body… or less critical self-chatter… or maybe a relationship with food that feels relaxed.
Want to lose weight with self-love, kind support, and effective, research-backed tools?
If you are ready to try a non-restrictive diet, body-positive, brain science informed and heart-centered approach, join me for the 15th offering of this course.
Outsmart Overeating Course for women begins Monday, 9/18.
Enrollment is now Open We meet on Zoom.
Everything is recorded for replays so you won’t miss a thing.
Join me for the Fall Term www.nourishwithgrace.com/courses/outsmart-overeating-fall-term-2023
I’d love to support you meeting your holidays feeling better in your own skin.

ANNOUNCING THE RIVERBEND PLAYERS 2024 SEASON LINE-UP

CRIMES OF THE HEART:
Opens March 1st

The scene is Hazlehurst, Mississippi, where the three Magrath sisters have gathered to await news of the family patriarch, their grandfather, who is living out his last hours in the local hospital.

Lenny, the oldest sister, is unmarried at thirty and facing diminishing marital prospects; Meg, the middle sister, who quickly outgrew Hazlehurst, is back after a failed singing career on the West Coast; while Babe, the youngest, is out on bail after having shot her husband in the stomach.

Their troubles, grave and yet somehow hilarious, are highlighted by their priggish cousin, Chick, and by the awkward young lawyer who tries to keep Babe out of jail while helpless not to fall in love with her.

In the end, the play is the story of how its young characters escape the past to seize the future—but the telling is so true and touching and consistently hilarious that it will linger in the mind long after the curtain has descended.

THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG:
Opens May 31st

From Mischief, Broadway masters of comedy, comes the smash hit farce.

Welcome to the opening night of the Cornley University Drama Society’s newest production, The Murder at Haversham Manor, where things quickly go from bad to utterly disastrous.

This 1920s whodunit has everything you never wanted in a show—an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can’t play dead, and actors who trip over everything (including their lines).

Nevertheless, the accident-prone thespians battle against all odds to make it through to their final curtain call, with hilarious consequences!

Part Monty Python, part Sherlock Holmes, this Olivier Award–winning comedy is a global phenomenon guaranteed to leave you aching with laughter!

THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN:
Opens September 6th

Rachel Watson longs for a different life.

Her only escape is the perfect couple she watches through the train window daily, happy and in love, or so it appears.

When Rachel learns that the woman she’s been secretly watching has suddenly disappeared, she finds herself as a witness and even a suspect in a thrilling mystery in which she will face bigger revelations than she could ever have anticipated.

IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE: A LIVE RADIO RADIO PLAY.
Opens December 6th

This beloved American holiday classic comes to captivating life as a live 1940s radio broadcast.

With the help of an ensemble that brings a few dozen characters to the stage, the story of idealistic George Bailey unfolds as he considers ending his life on one fateful Christmas Eve.
