3 Telescope Specifications
3.1 Historical Introduction
The 1.3-m telescope was built by Tinsley of California. The instrument was first erected in July 1969 at Stinchfield Woods near Dexter, Michigan, some 15 miles from Ann Arbor.
The Dexter site was deteriorating even then - city lights, haze, cloudiness - and when Al Hiltner came in 1970 he tried to use the telescope and to get others to use it, but soon realized the site was poor. Incidentally, the telescope was mounted in a TALL dome structure, like the Mayall 4-m, into which was built a Coude tunnel. The mounting was hollowed out for a Coude mirror, but no further work was done to provide for a feed or spectrograph.
MIT was preparing to launch SAS-3, a Small Astronomy Satellite, to observe celestial X-ray objects. MIT went to NASA and proposed NASA build them an optical telescope. NASA responded by encouraging them to join up with other groups who had telescopes. Al Hiltner and Delo Mook were working on optical counterparts of X-ray objects, especially Sco X-1, and Al was talking about the inutility of the 1.3-m. They all got together and decided to discuss moving the 1.3-m to Kitt Peak in a joint way.
As all the plans were knitted together Delo Mook moved to Dartmouth and so Dartmouth was included. The Consortium was established and the name decided by coin toss. Michigan was to have 50% of the telescope time, so its name would be first. The coin toss was to decide whether Dartmouth or MIT came second or third. Each would have 25% of telescope time.
Money for the move was furnished by McGraw-Hill, Inc. and by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. The gifts/grants came in 1974 and the telescope was moved quickly, as the purpose was support of SAS-3, which was due to be launched in 1975. The telescope and observatory became operational on May 4, 1975, just three days before the SAS-3 launch, and began to be used to observe the optical counterparts of X-ray objects (not confined to those discovered by SAS-3).
An additional grant from Don & Lucile Nierling of Phoenix was used for the computer installation, which was added in 1977. The facility was called the "McGraw-Hill Observatory." The asteroid 4432 McGraw-Hill is named after the telescope, which was the site for the first physical observations of this minor planet.
When the consortium decided to build a larger telescope, to which all would contribute equally, the time allocation was changed to 1/3 per institution, and the observatory name changed to the Michigan-Dartmouth-MIT Observatory operating the McGraw-Hill and Hiltner Telescopes. The observatory became just MDM when MIT left the consortium to join the Magellan Telescope project. Michigan relinquished half their 1/3 share. Ohio State and Columbia each joined MDM as 1/4 partners. Since then, Ohio University has also joined, forming the current operating consortium.

3.2 Optical Specifications
The 1.3m McGraw-Hill Telescope can be used at f/7.6 and f/13.5* Cassegrain configurations. Scaled optical diagrams are given in Figure 3.1. Full optical specifications are given in Table 3.1.
All three mirrors are made of low expansion Cer-Vit, with a regular aluminum coating.
The primary mirror is 1.32 m (52 inches) in diameter, but the optically worked surface is only 1.27 m (50 inches) and has been masked accordingly.
The primary is supported by a wiffle-tree arrangement. On nights of good seeing the telescope is capable of producing stellar images of 1.0 arcseconds FWHM or slightly better, over a 10 minute integration.
3.3 Mechanical Specifications
The telescope mount is an English cross-axis equatorial which employs worm and worm wheels. The worm wheel on the polar axle has been damaged and it can only be used on the WEST side of the axis. It is possible to crash the telescope into the north pier and great care must be taken when working near the celestial pole, especially at large western hour angles. The telescope can be moved from several locations:
Track rates (arcseconds/s)
Default RA 15.001
Default Dec 0.0
Maximum 25
Guide rates (arcseconds/s)
Default 1.33
Set rates (arcseconds/s)
Default 100
Slew rates (degrees/s)
Default 2.5
3.4 Geographical Coordinates
MDM Observatory is located on the south-west ridge of Kitt Peak, Arizona. The precise position of the 1.3-m McGraw-Hill Telescope is:
Latitude: N 31o 57'
Longitude: W 111o 37'

Now I'm no smoker myself but I've got to give credit where credit is due. She says that she started smoking at the ripe old age of 7. She estimates that this here cigarette was her 170,000th! Anyone that can do something 170,000 times, no mater what it is, is alright in my book.

Often Imitated, Never Duplicated
Seve Ballesteros passes on, but his influence on golf is as large as ever

Seve Ballesteros was a magician, but his magic never came from a wand. It came from the hands wielding one.
"Le agarr� las manos, las acarici� y pens�: lo que han hecho estas manos en el mundo," Ballesteros' brother Baldomero told the Spanish sports newspaper Marca on Saturday.
"I held his hands and stroked them and thought: what these hands have done in the world."
The shot that ultimately decided the Wells Fargo Championship late on Sunday afternoon required some of that magic. On the first playoff hole, Jonathan Byrd faced a downhill lie from a hazard, with a creek to navigate, and no margin for error, an impossibly difficult shot.
What would Seve do?
"There was only one of him," CBS' David Feherty said.
Byrd's shot was void of the necessary magic, the ball scurrying past the pin, enabling Lucas Glover to claim the victory.
Seve Ballesteros, one of a kind, indeed.
Tributes to Ballesteros poured forth last week, many of them employing overlapping adjectives, charisma and passion among them. Nick Faldo described him as the Cirque du Soleil of golf, "the greatest show on earth."
Here's one of the more colorful remembrances, from the irrepressible Feherty on CBS' telecast on Saturday:
"I remember the Ryder Cup in 1991, sitting in the European team room and feeling a pair of hands on the back of my neck. And of course, it doesn't matter who it is who's doing it. You just want to give them three weeks to stop...I looked around and it's Seve. I didn't know him particularly well. He was a difficult man to know well. He was a loner, kind of private in a sense. But that one week he cared so much about the Ryder Cup...He told us a few stories about his own experiences in the Ryder Cup...He made us feel as if we were members of a very special club, that Severiano Ballesteros was a friend of ours...
"I remember thinking that week that he looked smaller than I had remembered him. Months later, I looked back and I realized he didn't look smaller. He made me feel bigger. That was the kind of man he was. Of course, I played with him in the German Masters the following week and he called me 'Doug.'"
Padraig Harrington suggested that the silhouette of a golfer he couldn't name that adorns the European Tour logo ought to be replaced by Ballesteros.
"I'd certainly back putting Seve on it as the figurehead of the European Tour," Harrington said. "We'd love to have him up there on a pedestal in Europe. He was the guy a lot of us that are on tour now wanted to be as kids."
The current logo, incidentally, features the silhouette of Harry Vardon, who won the British Open six times.
There is an argument to be made in support of Harrington's suggestion. The European Tour was not founded until 1972, 35 years after Vardon's death. The counter is whether iconic figures from history ought to be replaced as the memory of them diminishes over time.
It should be no surprise that at any time a U.S. Open champion can summon the skills that won him a major and deliver another victory. Still, Glover's win in the Wells Fargo Championship was wholly unexpected.
He hadn't won since his victory in the Open at Bethpage Black. He had missed three straight cuts and in seven starts had finished no better than a tie for 20th.
He won by a razor-thin margin, in a playoff with his friend and former Clemson teammate, Byrd.
Speaking of razors, Lucas, find one. Those friends telling you your scruffy beard looks good? They're lying.
• Kudos to CBS for its attempt to interview Rory Sabbatini after his round on Sunday and providing the reason why he declined.
"I can tell you that we went to interview Rory and ask for a post-round interview just to ask him how he did it today," Ian Baker-Finch said. Sabbatini was the leader in the clubhouse at the time. "[He] requested we not ask about the issues he's facing at the moment and the disciplinary side of things. We mentioned that a little earlier. We said no, we needed to ask about that. So we won't be hearing from Rory just yet."
Sabbatini reportedly faces disciplinary action for a confrontation with Sean O'Hair at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans the week before, as well as a run-in with O'Hair and a volunteer at the Northern Trust Open earlier this year.
• From Peter Kostis' interview with Padraig Harrington, over a fan's suggestion that he had teed up in front of the tee markers at the 13th hole:
"It was inconclusive," Harrington said. "For once I'm not going to be a martyr and take it. I'm going to say it's not conclusive."
The martyrdom reference was to the fact that Harrington was disqualified from the HSBC Championship in Abu Dhabi earlier in the year when a television viewer alerted tournament authorities that it appeared his ball had moved after he had replaced it on the green and removed his marker.
On the downside, CBS' crew oversold Harrington as an honorable player. Surely he is, but it was irrelevant. It was inconclusive that he had teed his ball up in front of the markers. End of discussion.
• CBS' Jim Nantz conducted the obligatory interview with the tournament sponsor's representative, in this case David Carroll, a senior executive vice president of Wells Fargo.
"Nice tie," Carroll said, at the end of the interview. Carroll and Nantz were wearing identical ties (and navy blue blazers and white shirts).
"I should have called you first," Nantz replied.
• Finally, CBS golf icon Frank Chirkinian will be enshrined in the World Golf Hall of Fame tonight. In his honor, we bring you this from Chirkinian during a Masters production meeting, cited in Dan Jenkins' book, "The Dogged Victims of Inexorable Fate":

What makes a bike sexy? Sleek geometry gets the blood pumping, and visually simple yet technically complex components and exclusive accessories certainly lend to the appeal. But the final layer of allure to be worked on is a bike's cosmetics—the graphics. Carina Lehmann and her colleague Claudia Kabosch take care of this detailed work.
Our ever-expanding model range and commitment to reacting quickly to the demands of our customers brought about the need for an in-house graphics deptartment. That deptartment has been in place for around a year now, with Carina joining us in January. Based at our HQ in the same open-plan office as the marketing and the product management teams, the graphics team is able to work closely with them, which means a faster and more responsive process. Put most simply, Carina's job is to design all the necessary branding, information design, and additional graphic devices that appear on our bikes, and ensuring they work when in place on the frames and forks. Don't think that means just sitting at a computer add day; it also means a lot of manual work and considerable attention to detail. All decals created on the computer must be tested as paper models 1:1 on the frame prototypes. When you consider how many models are in our range across road, mountain, lifestyle and women's, and multiply those by model options and frame sizes, then you can begin to see what a gargantuan task this is. "Depending on the model, there are actually 50-100 decal elements", explains Carina.
Carina Lehmann is an industrial and product designer with in-depth training in textile design. What she appreciates in particular about her new task: "The 3D implementation of the design on the frame is a particular challenge." Other challenges include the small frame surfaces and working creatively within the confines of the corporate identity. The corporate colors (red, white, black) and the Swiss cross are brand themes which must be followed, with some exceptions: the high-end impec, where black on black decals are understated and imply exclusivity; the wheels for the racing teams; and the mountain bikes of World Champion Ralph Näf or the French Champion Julien Absalon also have corresponding special color decals. Pink bikes are kept on hand for the Giro d'Italia and yellow bikes for the Tour de France. Our special additions bring yet more freedom, such as our Lamborghini collaboration and the orange and yellow impec versions that were designed by NOSE in Zurich. Oh, and we're currently working on another special project right now, shhhhh!
Once this final layer is complete, the new range is presented and we hold our breath in anticipation of the reactions from the public and the cycling industry at large. But, in many ways, we have already moved on, and development of next year's products is well underway. It's all part of a process we call 'excitement research'.

Great news for those doing court business in Riverside County! The new Banning Courthouse location opened for business on May 4, reports The Press Enterprise, with new processes that the court hopes will increase efficiencies. The new location is also considered a "green" courthouse. The abundant number of skylights, portholes and windows bring in natural light, and sensor-equipped courtrooms automatically turn off the lights when the room is not in use. There is even a bike rack outside, encouraging those employees who are willing to bike to work!
According to The Press Enterprise, some of the new and improved features of the Banning courthouse include:
- Paying traffic tickets without having to experience the inconvenience of waiting in a long security line
- Utilizing a self-help center for pro pers representing themselves in a case
- Free Wi-Fi access
- More courthouse employees
- A more spacious courthouse with additional courtrooms
- Electronic court calendars mounted outside courtrooms and in the lobby
The Press Enterprise also reported that the courthouse was built on a $63.2 million budget, and that the Riverside Superior Court is planning to build a new justice center in Menifee, designed to replace the current courthouse located in Hemet. The projected completion date is 2021.
Don't forget that One Legal can help you with your filing needs in Riverside Superior Court. Let us do the work for you. For more information, contact our Customer Support Department!

> The cross-platform stuff was then, and still largely is, marketing. Sun was a single platform hardware company.
I disagree. When I moved from "cross-platform" C++ to Java in the late 1990s, all of a sudden the sun shone every day and the birds began to sing again.
You also forgot that the ecosystem was developed precisely to run on a variety on consumer devices.
> 1) the GWR bridge over the thames at Maidenhead. Many respected engineers thought that it would fall down
AIUI, it still holds the world record for the lowest height/width ratio for a brick bridge. It also has a fantastic sounding echo underneath.
where are the Octonauts when you need them?
Put an image of the EURion constellation in the signature. That should "solve" any printing issues.
With apologies to the RAF, "Per taberna ad astra" works better IMHO.
Also happy ex-OSF customer here. Only gave it up for a Moto G when I wanted a newer Android and my daughter wanted a cheap smartphone. Didn't take much persuading mind.
I'm also a rower. Unfortunately, any external substance that alters the hull/water boundary layer (eg denticles) is banned.
Hey ho. Just have to pull harder.
I realise going against the Reg hivemind is risky, but there's a whole world outside the home & kitchen.
Where I used to live, we had new streetlights installed that could be dimmed remotely and report back to base if it failed. That's what's really meant by the Internet of Things, not fridges and toasters which have constant human proximity.
Oil pipelines that actually tell their operators when they start leaking, river sluices that notify of changes in water levels, traffic lights that tell the road authorities when they have stopped working, animal feed troughs that need refilling. It's all the remote stuff that nobody can police 24/7. Management by exception, etc, etc needs the "Things" to be "Internetted".
You'll be glad to hear today's encounter with the Snot Sea Cucumber had my lot in stitches.
"two layers of public key exchange using the credentials of the parties to negotiate a temporary key which is in turn used to derive the symmetric session key used for communications"
Isn't that DH key exchange?
Not surprising since avoiding central financial control is one of Bitcoin's principal raisons d'etre. See the very first sentence in:
"A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution"
"suitable for the most basic of home users"
Ie 95% of typical MS Office users.
"Perhaps he means "world's best site for tidal power where plans for tidal power have not yet been formally scrapped"."
I was under the impression that it was only the full plan for the Severn (ie crossing the whole Bristol Channel) that had been scrapped, and that the smaller options (enclosing smaller areas) were still on the table.
Oh, and good point about why no direct link from the article. Maybe it's because they get a bit worried now when Lewis Page puts out anything about the environment.
You've omitted any reference to immigrants and climate change. How can we take you seriously?
"Hey Watson! Does computer always say no?"
Missing from the article is that while some Redditors were wrongly accusing an innocent man, others were scouring photos from the incident and provided the FBI with far better photo evidence than they had from CCTV.
I suspect you're going to find dodgy dealings in the backgrounds of most root CAs. Taking a stand with this one looks a bit dogmatic.
Yes, it's also in NotePad++ which, like Sublime, inherits it from Scintilla which underlies both of them.
He sounds a bit different here:
In brief, the Linux world is too disjointed to coordinate their negotiations with vendors. Fedora took a highly ethical approach and decided not to go it alone because of their power in comparison to other distros. So the result is that the MS approach was not only the most cost effective, but also apparently accepted (albeit reluctantly) by Torvalds.
Has he changed his tune?
They've already had HOLMES (Home Office Large Major Enquiry System)
I went to an interview with a manager who didn't show up. I was given the usual test by a couple of the techies and went away. Later I got asked back for a second interview. Again he wasn't there so I gave up and said 'No thanks'.
The firm arranged corporate entertainment freebies. Hmm ...
iOS maybe?
"The new Mega encrypts and decrypts your data transparently in your browser, on the fly"
That should stop folks up/downloading full-length films then. The sequel will be out by the time it's finished.
> Technically you also have the right to shout 'fire' without any evidence of a conflagration being present
This neatly demonstrates the utter pointlessness of 'rights' without 'responsibilities'. To defend and demand the right to shout 'Fire' unnecessarily is to turn ones rights into such a weak and vapid abstraction that it is an insult to those who fight for the right to speak out against REAL oppression.
Really, why demand the right to offend for no other reason than 'because I can'?
Actually, PHP has its origins in Perl, being originally some Perl scripts to preprocess HTML before serving.
I think PHP is one of those technologies that is being asked to do far more than it was originally designed to do. It was the first server-side language to use HTML templates which IMHO deserves some credit, but the original language was designed to do not much more than that. Now people want to write full-blown enterprise apps in it :rollseyes:
Talent ID for the elite programs and encouraging grassroots sport are really 2 completely unrelated topics. If we are to maintain a healthy position in the medal table, then we must continue the elite talent spotting that is only starting to bring rewards.
Independently, if sport is considered worthwhile, then we need input for all sports at the grassroots. I agree with the poster saying that there should be opportunities for kids to try many sports at school. This requires more funding for local clubs because schools cannot provide the specialist knowledge and equipment needed over many sports. The other change I would like to see is schools not being allowed to make demands on a pupil's time between say 4 - 6pm, freeing them up for other activities.
However the one change that is almost impossible to engineer is the one that values the activities of kids' on the sports field (or any other worthwhile pastime) far above than those of pointless celebs on TV. Then we might actually get people off the sofa and doing something valuable.
I hope they're doing the street-cleaning thing AFTER the handing-out-the-leaflets thing.
> Correlation in the measurement of a shared state does, however, not need information transmission.
What about correlation in a change of state over a distance? Alice & Bob's cards don't change state together once allocated. AIUI entangled photons can.
7zip, OO and Avast were the first things I put on a new Win PC recently. Not heard of Bvckup, must try it.
Don't like VLC on windows. Too flaky
For editors, I'd recommend PSPad over Notepad++ any day. It is particularly good at handling large files. I work with log files a lot, some Gb in size and it can handle them with no problems. Also lots of search&replace functionality, syntax highlighting, FTP access, macros, diff, block highlighting, etc. Well worth the money (!!)
Who said the small panels were fixed? This paragraph:
"Perhaps more important than the successful models of such 3D mounts the team has tested, is the analytical software developed that can model different 3D configurations in a wide variety of latitudes, seasons, and weather conditions."
suggests they can be manoeuvred into more efficient positions as the conditions require. OK, agreed, this has been done before in solar farms. Nevertheless, the improvements over the basic fixed panels used on residential rooftops seem possible.
The short-termism shown by management and accountants only reflects the pressure from shareholders demanding year-by-year dividends and EPS growth. Were the owners of a company to think beyond the next 4 quarters and invest for such, they'd find themselves in a much better position in their home markets.
I'm in the wrong job
So how do I, the customer, know that the thing reading my card and the app on the phone are genuine PayPal Here apps? It would be a doddle for a scammer to create identical stuff with all the PayPal styling. I might as well just hand them my card details and PIN and save them the bother.
No need. It is propelled by its vertical motion with the waves (no motors at all) and the solar panels are plenty powerful enough for the electronics.
Because then it's not really OTP which should rely purely on pre-agreed PIN generation, normally time-based, with no per-transaction interaction.
I think the target of these scams is eg PayPal who send PINs via SMS to the account holder's mobile as extra security over and above the usual userid/password, so they're not really talking about OTP either.
I bank online with HSBC and they have separate physical OTP generator keycards which are immune from these sort of scams (but have other limitations).
The logos and anthem are part of the branding of the service which is considered (rightly or wrongly) an asset that adds value (credibility, gravitas, etc) to the service.
A provider who illegally applies branding to a service which isn't their own may be in breach of copyright because they use the legal owner's branding to add that value to their alternative service.
The Economy7 tariff was always sold as being better because it kept the power stations running at an even pace throughout the night. If a massive demand for night-time charging of EVs develops, it makes sense for overnight tariffs to become the norm. This would encourage greater EV usage and make for more efficient use of the power stations.
"Oh, and if that's what rocks Carl's boat then congratulations to him."
Carl knows his boats:
I disagree.
1. A pardon says 'We forgive you' (not possible if he was guilty under law at the time).
2. An apology asks for someone else's forgiveness (approriate at any time).
In fact, an apology is more telling in this case because it acknowledges that the whole nation is in his (posthumous) debt because of the despicable way he was treated.
How easy is it to change headlight bulbs? I've ****ing had it with modern cars that require you to dismantle the front grill / remove the battery + supports / flay the back of your hand just to put in a new ****ing headlight bulb !!!
This article has more detail:
Apparently, room temperature will take about 150 atoms, compared with about 1 million currently. So it is still a worthwhile breakthrough.
It's a dreadful site to use. I have never been able to complete the simplest task without problems. And that's using one of the very small number of supported browsers.
If it forces them to rethink the whole thing, it would be worth it.
Can't believe you missed the opportunity:
"Nice one, Cyril!"
Aha, "Income Tax". Not mentioned in your first post. Fair enough, as you were ...
25% of the annual tax revenue of the UK government comes from the top 1%'s personal taxation ?!

Absolutely true. I was without a TV for about 3 years and I NEVER missed it, nor was I EVER so productive with my time. Mind you, reading the newspapers, I had absolutely no idea who all the slebs were that seemed to fill every column inch.

Toasting Poland (Beachcombing's Bizarre History Blog)
An interesting history-related post from Beachcombing's Bizarre History Blog:
Beachcombing has always had a bit of a thing about the Poles: a nation of warriors and survivors. It is difficult not to get a little teary-eyed then when, in 1918, Poland officially becomes, after 120 years of dreaming, a nation again. Unlike Italy's pretend risorgimento – to have a 'resurrection' you need to have originally existed – here there really was a return to life. There had been a Poland in 1000 and there had been a Poland as recently as 1795 – before it was butchered by the Russians, Prussians and Austrians – and now, until 1939, there ...

SEIA: New Report Offers 'Distorted View' of Solar ITC
A new study released today by the Stanford Graduate School of Business predicts that the U.S. solar industry is "headed for a cliff" if the solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC) is not extended. Even though the report touts the solar industry's "dramatic growth," it called for a phase down of the ITC without any examination of the current and past tax treatments of established energy sources. Rhone Resch, president and CEO of the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA), called that omission a "fatal flaw" which ignores how Congress has used the U.S. Tax Code over the past century to encourage the increased production of oil, gas, coal and even nuclear power, making it difficult for solar and other renewable energy sources to compete in the marketplace without incentives.

This is why Mosaic launched #PutSolarOnIt last year – and why dozens of the largest and most powerful solar advocating organizations have joined, including Climate Reality Project, Conergy, Environment America, Organizing for Action, Solar Energy Industry Associations, Women4Solar, VoteSolar, and others.
As the UN Climate Conference ended with a whimper last week, the U.S. continues to move forward in its attempts to curtail climate change.
According to the FERC's "Energy Infrastructure Update" report, 99.3 percent of all new electric generation placed in service during the month of October came from renewables – with solar leading the way by a country mile!
Even though they were overshadowed by the Senate's historic decision to eliminate the use of the filibuster when it comes to most Presidential nominees – the so-called "nuclear option" – there were some major developments this week at the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) that are critically important to solar and renewable energy.
The rapid growth of rooftop solar has fueled an important debate about the future of our electric power system. And for good reason. Affordable, onsite solar power—aka distributed generation (DG)—offers electric customers something they've never had before: choice of where their power comes from and control over costs. The implications for the electric power system are profound and transformational as they point to a more decentralized future.
Public Service, the state's largest power utility, to reduce compensation for the energy Arizonians produce on their rooftops, and all eyes are on that sunny state. Distributed generation offers concrete benefits to all ratepayers. For the utilities, distributed generation reduces investments in transmission and distribution infrastructure – delaying or eliminating the need to build new, expensive and often polluting power plants.
Next week's global climate talks in Warsaw, Poland, need to be guided by a new sense of urgency. After more than 20 years of talking about climate change, it's time for the nations of the world to start putting a meaningful plan in place to fight it.
Ohio's renewable energy initiative, set in 2008, has been an economic and clean energy driver, lowering prices, creating local jobs and spurring investment. But the state senate is considering a bill, SB 5hat would dramatically lower the renewable energy requirements and seems to make compliance virtually optional.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) - Administrators say they are ready to post the state's "checkbook" online, giving taxpayers a chance to scrutinize spending by Wisconsin officials.
Department of Administration Secretary Mike Huebsch they'll launch the "Open Book" program next week. Gov. Scott Walker's plan to make state spending more transparent has been two years in the making. Huebsch says there's a lot of information from all state agencies to enter into the system.
The first phase of the database will include payments made by the state for goods and services from fiscal 2008 through the most current month, searchable by state agency, expense category and vendor. State employee salaries and fringe benefits will be added in the coming months. Wisconsin Public Radio News (http://bit.ly/15ibkqU) says some employees, including undercover law enforcement agents, will be kept confidential.

1 Claim.
This invention relates to container closures and more particularly to improved caps of the screw and crown types.
Container closures are commonly made by combining a shell with a liner of cork. The porosity of the thin cork layer. permits the liquid contents of the container to come in contact with the outer shell causing destruction of the shell and contamination of the contents. Unprotected cork also serves to contaminate many liquids with which it may be placed in contact due to the action of the liquid on the cork. It is also known to use a liner prepared from comminuted cork bound together with various resins. This construction renders the liner capable of preventing contact of the liquid contents of the container with the closure shell and provides a protective coating for the cork particles. Further, it is known to apply a surface coating or protective membrane or spot disc to the exposed face of the liner to prevent contact of liquids with the cushion material of the liner, and it is still further known to prepare cushion materials for closure liners from more or less complex mixtures containing various adhesives, solids, fillers, rubber, etc.
Container closures prepared using any of the above methods have in common such disadvantages as being resistant to only a small group of materials and being relatively complex and diflicult as well as expensive to prepare.
This invention has as its object to provide a container closure, the 'cushion liner of which comprises a relatively simple material. A further object is to provide a container closure the cushion of which combines the properties of resilience, toughness, etc., which make it suitable for a cushion liner together with the property of inertness, i. e. of being unafiected by diversified classes of materials. A still further object is to provide suitable means for perparing container closures of the type described above. Other objects will appear hereinafter.
These objects are accomplished by preparing a container closure by combining a metal or plastic shell with a cushion liner comprising a solid polymer of ethylene the physical properties and method of preparation of which are referred to in more detail below.
In the accompanying drawings Figs. 1 to 7 are sectional views of various forms of container closures and elements thereof embodying my invention.
In Fig. l, the numeral i indicates a beverage crown in which the sealing element 2 is a disc of solid polymer of ethylene,
Fig. 2 shows a screw cap closure consisting of a molded plastic shell 3 and a disc 8 of the ethylene polymer,
Fig. 3 shows sheet material, which consists of a metal sheet 5 having an adherent coating 6 of ethylene polymer, and from which is stamped the crown closure shown in Fig. 4 consisting of the outer metal shell 1 and cushion liner or sealing element 8 of the ethylene polymer.
In Fig. 5 the sealing element consists of a disc of spongy ethylene polymer i0 contained in the metal crown 9,
In Fig. 6 the sealing, element in the beverage crown ii consists of a disc i2 of spongy ethylene polymer faced with solid ethylene polymer i3, and
Fig. '7 shows a cross section of a screw-type closure consisting of a metal shell l4 and a ring gasket l5 of solid polymer of ethylene,
The process for preparing the solid polymers of ethylene used in the practice of this invention consists in subjecting ethylene to a pressur in excess of 500 atmospheres under controlled. elevated temperature conditions. This procedure results in polymers of ethylene, the molecular weight of which varies, depending particularly upon the pressure employed. By using pressures of more than 1000 atmospheres, solid polymers are formed and under these conditions the polymerization reaction takes place, requiring several hours for completion. These polymers may also be made by including in the ethylene a small quantity of oxygen which may be as little as 0.01 per cent but preferably 0.02 per cent to 0.10 per cent at 1500 atmospheres. The pressures are at least 500 atmospheres and preferably at least 1000 atmospheres and below 3000 atmospheres. The temperatures are between 100 C. and 400 C. and more desirably from 150 C. to 250 C. Thus, as a specific instance of obtaining the polymers, ethylene containing 0.05 per cent oxygen is compressed in a steel bomb to a total pressure of 1500 atmospheres and heated rapidly to 210 C., whereupon a very sudden rise in pressure, followed by a slow drop in pressure, is observed. After five hours heating at 210 C. the'pressure is released and the product cooled. Under these conditions an yield of the solid polymer based on the ethylene used is obtained. 7
The ethylene polymers obtained as outlined above melt at temperatures in excess of C.
and generally within the range of about 110 C. to about 200 C., have a molecular weight in exce s of 6000, are essentially saturated products corresponding in composition substantially to (CH2) a: and when subjected to X-ray diffraction analysis show. a crystalline structure. These polymers are insoluble in xylene at ordinary tem- -peratures but soluble in xylene at its boiling point, are unaffected by prolonged contact with A air at ordinary temperatures, and are characterized by the fact that they can be formed into films and filaments which yield oriented products on application of stress herein referred to as cold drawing. The oriented products furnish fiber diffraction patterns on examination with X-rays and exhibit birefringence and parallel extinction when observed under crossed Nicol prisms. Of these polymers, those having molecular weights in excess of 10,000 are the most useful in the practice of this invention.
The melting points referred to above are determined by a modification of the ball and ring method as follows: a film of the ethylene polymer 0.005" thick is clamped in a 1" diameter circular clamp and supports a 0.4" diameter steel ball. The whole is immersed in glycerin and the temperature raised at a rate of 5 C. per minute. The melting point is taken as the temperature at which the ball shows all the way 7 through the ring.
The improved closures of the present invention which contain cushion liners of the above described ethylene polymer may be made by casting or molding the ethylene polymer cushion liner disc or ring directly in the metal or plastic shell or by inserting a preformed disc or ring of ethylene polymer directly in the metal or plastic shell. Methods for forming the liner directly in the cap include stamping the cap from shell -material previously coated with ethylene polymer, casting the disc in the shell from molten ethylene polymer or from ethylene polymer in solution in a suitable organic solvent or by compressing the powdered ethylene polymer into the cap and fusing to form a coherent liner. Preformed discs for inserting in cap shells are prepared variously by compression molding, injection molding, or by stamping from sheeting of the ethylene polymer. To insure the attachment of the liner to the shell when a preformed disc is inserted in the shell, the size of the disc may be selected to be slightly larger than the space it is to fill, so that its own resiliency will allow it to be forced into position and maintain it there in a snug fit; ,or the assembly may be heated to fuse the ethylene polymer liner to the shell,' or the liner may be spot welded to the 'shell by local heating.
The practice of this invention may be further illustrated by means of the following examples:
Example I A sheet of the ethylene polymer is prepared -from a melt of ethylene polymer of average molecular weight about 16,000 maintained in a pressure chamber at a temperature of about 200 C., by extruding through a slit in the bottom of the chamber directly into cold water. The width of the slit and the rate of extrusion are adjusted to produce finished sheeting 0.0.50" thick. From this sheeting discs 1.050" in diameter are cut by stamping in a punch press. These discs are then inserted in beverage type crown shells prepared by stamping from tin plate (for example, 107 lb. tin plate) lacquered on both sides. The assembled caps are capable of forming a secure seal when applied to containers according to the usual technique well known in the art. The seal is resistant to gas pressures within the container such as those met in bottled soft drinks and beer. The cushion liners remain unaffected after long exposure to such materials as catsup and chili sauce for which caps containing cork liners are highly unsuitable. These caps impart no taste or odor to the contents of the container.
Example I! A container closure is assembled using a metal crown shell similar to that employed in Example I and a disc of the ethylene polymer 1.050" in diameter by 0.040" thick which is prepared by compression molding polymer of molecular weight around 24,000 in a suitable die at 130 C. followed by cooling and ejection from the die. The center" of the metal crown is then spot heated by pressing its outer surface against the end of a hot rod. The ethylene polymer cushion liner is then pressed against the shell and the assembly allowed to 'cool. This seals the liner firmly to the shell and provides a cap, the liner of which is unimpaired by the mechanical stress of the capping operation.
Example III A container closure is assembled, using a rigid molded plastic shell prepared from a phenolformaldehyde resin. The shell is threaded to engage with corresponding threads on the neck of the container. For a cushion liner, a disc of ethylene polymer of average molecular weight about 25,000 is prepared by injection molding. After the liner has been placed in the shell the assembly is placed open end up in a vacuum chamber and heated at 130 C. until the liner has fused firmly to the shell. Vacuum is used during this process to prevent the trapping of air bubbles between shell and liner. This procedure provides good adhesion of the liner to the shell in the finished closure and prevents the annoying situation of the liner remaining on the container when the cap is removed, which is so frequently the case with closures for toothpaste, shaving creams, inks and cosmetics.
Example IV A metal beverage crown shell is placed open side up and heated at 0. Into this cup is poured a predetermined amount of a 40% (by weight) solution of ethylene polymer of average molecular weight about 18,000 in xylene which is also at a temperature of 120 C. The assembly is kept at 120 C. until substantially all the xylene has evaporated (about 45 minutes) and there remains a shell lined with molten ethylene polymer. This assembly is then plunger at once into cold water to preserve the transparency of the polymer and enhance the toughness of the cushion liner.
' Example V The procedure of Example IV is repeated except that instead of the ethylene polymer being in solution it is cast into the shell directly from melt at 250 C. Due to the high viscosity of the molten polymer, it is usually necessary to place the hot assembly in an apparatus whereby centrifugal force is applied to spread the molten polymer in the cup and remove air bubbles, producing, on cooling, a cap with a strongly adherent cushion liner.
Example VI in the form of a compressed cake of the polymer.
To render this liner durable for use, the assembly is then heated at 120 C. until the polymer is fused into a coherent mass. The assembly is then rapidly cooled as in Example IV.
Example VII Sheeting of 107 lb. tin plate is lacquered on one side. The other side is coated in a suitable manner with a coating of the ethylene polymer of average molecular weight about 26,000 to a thickness of about 0.035". From this coated sheeting, discs are stamped and formed into crown caps in a suitable press. The cold drawing properties of the polymer render the coatings stable to this forming operation. The resultant inner coating not only provides a cushion liner for the cap but also provides a cushioning surface for the skirt of the shell and in turn protects the top of glass containers during the capping process. It further avoids the necessity of lacquering one side of the metal shell to prevent corrosion.
Example VIII A porous, spongy sheet of an ethylene polymer of average molecular weight about 22,000 is prepared by extruding a froth of the polymer at 130 C. through a slit 0.033" in thickness directly into cold water from a pressure chamber under 1500 lbs. per sq. in. pressure of nitrogen. The sheet thus obtained has a thickness of 0.050", is porous, highly flexible, resilient, has an apparent density of 0.288 (as compared to about 0.94 for solid ethylene polymer), and an average pore diameter of 0.003". A disc 1.050" in diameter is cut from this sheet and a container closure prepared as in Example I by mounting in a metal beverage crown shell.
Since the sheeting is not a sponge, in the sense of having interconnecting interstices, but rather a solidified froth in which the pores are discrete units entirely surrounded by ethylene polymer, the face of the disc is as impervious to liquids and offers as good protection of the shell from the container contents as the other forms of ethylene polymer mentioned in the foregoing examples. This type of closure is especially valuable for sealing containers in which considerable pressures are to be maintained.
In the above type of closure, if desired, the face of the disc adjacent to the contents and in direct contact with the lip of the container is heated to form a continuous film of the polymer.- In assemblies of this type the ethylene polymer disc has the face adjacent to the contents as a continuous film supported on a spongy resilient backing, thus providing an assembly which is exceptionally well suited to capping against high pressures.
In some cases it is desirable to incorporate in the liners such stiffening materials as cloth, glass fibers, paper, felt, mats and fabrics of regenerated cellulosic materials, wire mesh, etc. These materials are completely embedded beneath the sealing surface of the ethylene polymer, so that they in no wise may come in contact with the contents of the container.
The ethylene polymer compositions used in preparing cushion liners may also contain various fillers such as chalk or alpha fioc cellulose, pigments such as TiOz, ZnO, modifying agents such as paraffin wax, etc., which serve to reduce the cost of the liners and alter their appearance without impairing their cushioning or sealing properties as liners.
It is to be understood that although the container closures prepared according to the ex amples given above are all circular in shape and employ disc shaped cushion liners, the invention is applicable to the preparation of closures of any suitable shape such as square, oval, etc., employing liners of corresponding shapes. Or the closure may comprise a shell of any shape employing a ring or other shaped gasket of the ethylene polymer with the center portion removed, so that the liner serves only as a cushion material between the shell and container, leaving the center portions of the shell which are not adjacent to the container lip exposed to the contents of the container.
This invention is useful for preparing closures for containers for all sorts. It provides a new type of closure which is resistant to a wide variety of materials and may be adapted for use on bottles, beer cans, food and cosmetic jars, tooth paste and shaving cream tubes, containers for chemicals, etc.
A highly valuable advantage of this invention is that it provides a container closure which combines a metal or plastic shell, e. g. phenolformaldehyde, urea-formaldehyde, hard rubber, casein, polyvinyl resin, or similar shell, with a single material possessing the cushioning properties necessary for forming a tight, elastic seal along with the capacity for being unaffected by a wide variety of materials. It thus provides a simplified form of closure which may safely be exposed to the contents of the container without the use of a spot cover or coating and which will impart no odor or taste thereto. In addition to being inert to water, these closures are also unaffected by "canned food. and fruit Juices, catsup, vinegar, hydrogen peroxide, pharmaceutical materials, carbonated beverages, beer, mineral acids, alkalies, soaps, salts, organic solvents, cosmetics, shaving cream, tooth paste and other similar materials frequently packaged in containers on which closures of the type described in this invention may be used.
As many apparent widely different embodiments of this invention may be made without departing from the spirit and scope thereof, it is to be understood that I do not limit myself to the specific embodiments thereof except as defined in the appended claim.
I claim:
A container closure comprising a shell having a, cushion liner comprising essentially solid ethylene polymer having a molecular weight of at least 6000, melting from about C. to about 200 C., and having a crystalline structure.

Yes, the blog looks a smidge different, I know. I wanted to wait till it was OFFICIALLY spring but I just couldn't. Maybe this will make me believe that winter will eventually end. It's hard to think that way when snow is yet again in the forecast. Yuck.
I painted my nails! I NEVER do that so it was pretty exciting. I can't stop looking at them. Is that sad? Whatever. I know you want to see.
Pretty, right? And it goes so well with my engagement ring. Speaking of which, no we still haven't found my band. We think we know where it might be. Hopefully Dustin does the work this weekend to try to find it.
I finally got our wedding pictures hung. I'm not completely happy with how they turned out. I'd like better frames and maybe a shelf or two to display them. But it'll do for now. I'd also like to get some pictures of when we were kids, maybe a senior picture of each of us, etc. I really, really want to start working on decorating more. Which is hard for me because I'm not really all that creative. But I'm trying!
AND I need to give props to JCPenney. Now, I used to work at JCP so they'll always have a spot in my heart anyway. But I ordered shelves from there (like I mentioned before) about2 days ago AND THEY'RE ALREADY HERE! What!? That was FAST! I can't even believe it. I was so excited when I opened the door and there stood this box that I just KNEW was my shelf. So of course I pulled it inside, tore it open and immediately became perplexed. I pulled the pieces out and could not find the screws, directions, ANYTHING! I kept thinking, "Okay, this cannot mean that I'm supposed to go out and buy this stuff myself, that's not fair! I want this put together RIGHT NOW." Have I mentioned I have no patience? If I haven't, Dustin probably has. So I take all the shipping peanuts and what not and stuff it in the box. And there it is, in a little orange bag, the screws and directions. AWESOME. Sooo, I of course wanted to put it together myself so it'd be less for Dustin to do when he gets home (he hates having to hang things, lol). Molly helped a little and in the end I got the darn thing put together! We were going to hang it tonight but Dustin needs to get drill bits (or whatever) so that's the plan for TOMORROW. Hopefully when I come home from work it'll be hung. Yay! I'll be one step closer to having my little library. Sadly, I still need A LOT more space to put my books. I guess that's what happens with being a readaholic and liking to own every book I read.
ALSO (what can I say, I got a lot done today) I ordered three wedding albums. That's right folks, THREE. I made two for the parents (my folks and Dustin's) and then a bigger album for D and me. I've been meaning to do this for awhile but haven't had the money to purchase them anyway so today I finally got it all done. I used My Publisher and it was SUPER easy to work with and I'm SO excited to see the finished products. Now if only our apartment was big enough and we owned a coffee table because I would definitely have the perfect book to put on it.
Oh, and if anyone can suggest something that isn't Proactiv for me to use, that'd be awesome. Because Proactiv is really making me sad and not working for me anymore. So any advice on that situation would be awesome.

Astros lineup vs. Twins: Grossman DH Altuve 4 Crowe 7 Carter 3 Wallace 5 Hoes 9 Barnes 8 Villar 6 Clark 2 RHP Cosart 1
Twins lineup: Presley 8, Mastroianni 7, Dozier 4, Willingham DH, Plouffe 5, Colabello 3, Arcia 9, Pinto 2, Florimon 6. LHP Pedro Hernandez (3-1, 5.54 ERA).
All-Star catcher Jason Castro, who suffered a sprained knee on Monday, and Matt Dominguez, who was under the weather, were out of the lineup and unavailable for the second game of the three-game series against the Twins on Tuesday at Minute Maid Park.
Castro is day-to-day after an MRI on his right knee revealed a cyst near his medial collateral ligament but no structural damage.
"We're pleased with the results," general manager Jeff Luhnow said of the MRI on Castro's knee.
Cody Clark, who was called up after Max Stassi went on the seven-day concussion disabled list last week, will start behind the plate. Matt Pagnozzi, who was acquired from the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday in exchange for cash considerations, will serve as the backup catcher.
"He's out today for sure," Bo Porter said of Castro. "He's out and Dominguez out."
Dominguez showed up at Minute Maid Park feeling nauseous Tuesday.
"It started yesterday," Dominguez said. "I just kind of feel not too good. I started feeling bad after (Monday's) game."

Team Leaderboard | Individual Leaderboard
The University of New Mexico men's golf team moved up one spot to sixth place after posting an even-par 284 in today's second round of the 2008 Mountain West Conference Championships. The Lobos are 12-over (296-284=580) after 36 holes at the Tucson National Golf Club (par-71, 7,136 yards) and 16 strokes behind leaders TCU (283-281=564, -4) and BYU (286-278=564, -4). Junior Steve Saunders posted the low round of the day for New Mexico, carding a 3-under 68 in his second round.
Saunders rebounded from a nightmarish 82 in the opening round to post the second lowest score of day two. His 68 is also the third lowest mark of any golfer through 36 holes. Saunders found himself struggling again early in his round today, posting a double-bogey 5 on the par-3 fourth. He was 2-over through five holes before birdies on five of his next 11 holes. His 68 is the only red number by a Lobo at this point in the MWC Championships. Saunders' 68 today tied his season low set at the National Invitational Tournament. The NIT was also played at the Tucson National Golf Club. His score today tied his career low at the MWC Championships set in last year's second round. Saunders is currently tied for 35th at 8-over (82-68=150) in the individual race.
Freshman Tom Carlson still leads the Lobo individuals after his second straight 72 today. He is now 2-over (72-72=144) and tied for 14th in the individual race. Carlson was again very steady in his round with a birdie and two bogeys on the day.
Sophomore Brandon Putnam also had a smooth round today, posting an even-par 71. He birdie 8 and 10 and was 1-under through 12 holes. He gave one back on the par-4 13th before ending his round with five consecutive pars. Putnam is currently tied for 25th at 5-over (76-71=147).
Junior Jon Sauer shot a 2-over 73, but was up and down in his final nine holes of the day. After a birdie on 10 moved him to even-par, he carded a double-bogey on the par-4 11th hole. Sauer rebounded with back-to-back birdies on 12 and 13 to get back to even par. He was cruising into the clubhouse before a double-bogey on 18 left him at 2-over. Sauer is also tied for 25th at 5-over (74-73=147) in the individual race.
Sophomore Kyle Nielsen also played for the Lobos today, shooting a 5-over 76 in his second round. Nielsen stumbled out of the gate with double-bogeys on 2 and 4, but only gave up two more strokes the rest of his round. He is tied for 35th in the individual race at 8-over (74-76=150).
The Lobos will be seeking their fifth MWC trophy in the last six seasons when they tee off in the final round tomorrow. New Mexico will be paired with Utah and Colorado State and begin teeing off at 8:50 a.m. (M.D.T.). Live scores will again be available via GolfStat on GoLobos.com.

A Lexington woman died early Sunday morning in a car crash in Louisville according to the Louisville Police Department.
Police said it happened on a street where there are many accidents throughout the year.
Police said Felicia Burton, 40, came out of a Cuban restaurant with some friends and staggered out onto Preston Highway.
"She was hit south by a van in the middle of the street that was headed south on Preston," said a Louisville Police Officer.
Burton was pronounced dead at the scene. Investigators believe alcohol did have something to do with the accident and do not think the driver of the minivan could see Burton in the road.
"The driver did stop and call police and we do not expect any charges at this time," said the officer.
The intersection of Preston Highway and Blue Lick Road, near where the accident occurred, deals with a high number of accidents.
A plan is in place to one day straighten out Blue Lick Road to improve safety but some drivers believe it's also about driving responsibly.
"No regard. They text, they speed, the whole works. They have no regard," said driver Tee Brown.
Funeral arrangements for Burton have not yet been set.

thanks guys for info !
this sounds like a media issue for sure, possibly burner/burn speed.
I think I will request that we get some more documentation added to our packages that cover FAQs.
For media:
Verbatim dvd-r , look for made in Japan or Made in Singapore, those work best
made in taiwan will likely still work though not the greatest, made in india is just crap
taiyo yuden premium line dvd-r , works great also.
For software, Imgburn works best, burn speed 4x , i dont recommend slower or faster, just 4x works best for some reason
good luck

I finally was able to find Verbatim DVD-Rs (made in Taiwan) but after I play a game for a little while, the games lock up or cause Wii Read Errors on the screen. What else can I do short of going online to order Taiyo Yuden DVD-Rs?
I have been using ImgBurn at 4x (slowest speed available) on these Verbatim DVD-Rs with Incremental set also.
I have tried Maxwell, Memorex, Verbatim and now I ordered online Premium line 8x (recorded at 4x, Incremental using Imgburn) Taiyo Yuden DVD-Rs and at the same point it locks up when I burn CSI: Hard Evidence.
Is is possible there is something wrong with the copy? About an hour of play into the game is where is always locks up on me - same place everytime.

Should this be possible? I thought that Taiyo Yuden was the "Golden child" of Wii DVD-Rs. I have burned 2 copies on Taiyo Yuden Premium Line DVD-Rs and both had read errors in the Wii. Other games worked ok on Taiyo Yuden (except for CSI: Hard Evidence - which locks up at the same spot no mater what DVD-R is used), but MySims only works on Verbatim (or let's say does not work on Taiyo Yuden).
I have gone through 4 purchases of DVD-Rs (Maxell, Gigware, Verbatim and now Premium Line Taiyo Yuden) and there are no 100% working brands. The Verbatim and Taiyo Yuden seem to have less read errors and lock ups but there has to be a better way.
This weekend I will try buying Sony DVD+Rs at Walmart and see how they fair up.
Well this certainly surprised me. I bought some Sony DVD+R disks and found out that my copy of CSI:Hard Evidence was corrupted too. I found a "Scrubbed" version of CSI:Hard Evidence for the wii online (only 19 files vs the 43) - and it worked perfectly. No lock ups at that point in the game. This apparently was ONE of the issues. However, another Emulation Game Cube disk also worked on the SONY DVD+R that never worked on Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden DVD-Rs (or any other brand I tried - Maxell, Gigaware).
What I have learned was that although other brands have less problems (but still lock ups and read errors on some games) that Sony DVD+Rs worked perfectly with no issues found so far. After spending almost $100 in trying out 5 brands of DVDs, all I needed was SONY brand found at my local Walmart.
I wish I would have seen some reference to SONY DVD+R previously like I saw all the hype about Verbatim and Taiyo Yuden DVD-R brands.
Can this be referenced as a sticky or note with a higher view potential?
I saw no reference to DVD+Rs either so why does this work?
BTW: Set speed to 2x, write rate was autoset to 4x, 'Incremental' set using Imgburn software too.
I'm gald you finally found the DVD brand and type that will work for you. I personally have mentioned Sony DVD-R as having success and also TDK. So really for unknown reasons one brand will work great for one person but that same brand will not of another. So it boils down to trial and error to figure out which one will work for someone.
Thanks for the update.
I just installed a D2pro9v2 for a D2C drive chip and another wii with a D2pro9v1 for a DMS drive chip.
Mine is a D2pro9v3 with a D2E drive chip and I had to solder the J wire. I did not have to solder any wires for the other 2 wii mod chips.
I tested with games on Sony DVD+R disks, Verbatim DVD-R disks and Taiyo Yuden "premium line" DVD-R disks. All games on those disks can be read on my D2pro9v3 wii. But the Sony one's have the least problems.
However, on the DMS drive chip using the D2pro9v1, the Sony DVD+R disks could not read at all. The other 2 brands are fine.
All the systems used the wii clip for solder-less snap in (except for mine that used an additional J wire soldered in).
thanks for that input, just goes to show you how one brand can work for a system really well but not work at all on another system. I guess it comes down to how the lasers differ, reminds me of the PS2s.
