If there is one thing that has impressed Penn State offensive coordinator John Donovan since he started his job in January, it's the ability of senior running back Bill Belton to fearlessly move his body into the way of a blitzing linebacker on pass plays.
"He's a pretty tough kid," Donovan said Monday of Belton, a senior running back from Winslow Township High School in Camden County. "He's a good pass protector, which is something that's not always easy for a running back.
"You normally wouldn't think the guy could be great at pass protection," he added, probably in reference to Belton's size of 5-foot-10 and 204 pounds. "But he'll attack the linebackers and he'll stick the safety. He's got very good vision on where the blitz is coming. He's probably doing as good a job in that aspect as anything else."

I attended the launch yesterday of the 2007 Portable Antiquities Scheme annual report. Held at the BM in the new temporary exhibit space housing the few objects from the Staffordshire Hoard that are on display to the public, the meeting was full of the usual luminaries as well as Fred Johnson and his wife – the landowners of the farm where the Hoard was found.
It was quite interesting to meet them and to hear their take on the hoopla that has invaded their lives since the summer; Mr Johnson has been extremely accommodating to the archaeologists, but less so to the media who sometimes overstepped when trying to gain access to his land. It was lovely to see the Hoard through their eyes.
It was an occasion to celebrate the hard-fought success of the Portable Antiquities Scheme. Speakers included Neil MacGregor, Roy Clare and Margaret Hodge; overall, their message was one of positivity and acknowledgement of the essential role the PAS plays. Interesting, given the funding struggles the PAS has gone through in recent months. However, it would be impossible not to acknowledge the Scheme's success and role at the heart of the museum mission — to love and share material culture with the public — with the cases holding the Staffordshire Hoard sitting so prominently behind the microphone. As Maraget Hodge said, 'The discovery of the Staffordshire Hoard has captured public imagination and demonstrated the importance of the Scheme. This discovery alone justifies the existence of the PAS.'
Neil MacGregor confirmed that the British Museum would not seek to acquire the Hoard, and reiterated the BM's commitment to partnership with the regions. It was clear from the response of the public to the temporary display of the Hoard in Birmingham (where people queued for up to four hours to view it) that being housed outside of London will not have a negative impact on exposure or access; people will travel to see something fascinating.
According to the report, 2007 was a record year for the PAS in terms of objects recorded and housed in museums; one has to imagine that the figures will only continue upwards. Congratulations!

How can you contribute to Geek Mental Help Week?
It's been a question that I've been asked a lot over the past couple of weeks in the run up to this year's Geek Mental Help Week, so I thought that I'd explain in more than Twitter's 140 characters.
And all that Malarkey
For over ten years our blog's been a popular destination for thousands of website designers and developers from all around the world.
It's been a question that I've been asked a lot over the past couple of weeks in the run up to this year's Geek Mental Help Week, so I thought that I'd explain in more than Twitter's 140 characters.
Geek Mental Help Week starts next Monday and I'm very happy to say that there are several events happening during the week.
Do you know where you were or what you were doing exactly ten years ago (next week?) I do. I was speaking at my first, in fact the first Web Directions conference in Sydney, Australia. (I gave a talk called 'Creating Inspired Design' and there's audio of it if you're interested in listening.)
Flights are booked and visas are in hand* and I'm getting very excited, because in only a few weeks, Sue and I are heading back to Australia to join Espen, Jina and Una, as well as our friends in Perth at the very first Mixin conference.
As I mentioned last week, I've written a new talk to help me cope with my obsession with making layouts that are different from what we mostly see on the web these days. It's called 'Art Directing the Web' because in the talk I make the point that we should make different layouts not just for difference sake, but to better communicate the meaning of our content and to tell better stories.
I've joked before that unless a conference line-up includes Harry Roberts and Sara Soueidan it's a Code Of Conduct violation. Or something like that. So oh how I laughed when earlier this year I was asked to join them on stage at Frontend Conf in Zurich, Switzerland.
Here's the skinny. Geek Mental Help Week is happening again during the week of October 3rd 2016 and I think that it's going to be the best one yet.
When illustrator Josh Cleland and I were designing our "It's the taste" home page header, we were of course paying homage to the classic PG Tips TV commercials from the 1970s. In particular, the ad that's been my favourite, Mr. Shifter. Yesterday, Choppers, the last surviving chimpanzee from that 1971 commercial died.
Okay, okay. I know. No episodes of my Unfinished Business podcast for a few months. I'm really sorry about that.
Sue and I were driving home last Sunday when I realised that on Tuesday this week we would've seen Motörhead live at the Manchester Apollo.
While I'm finalising the table of contents for my 'shot,' I've been thinking about the things that I regularly do when I'm 'Designing with a Browser', one of which is using the
contenteditable attribute in the templates that I share with clients.
Let me start this list of my top five country music albums of 2015 with a confession. Although country's been by far my most listened to genre again this year, I haven't listened to it as much as I have the past few years. In the latter part of the year, I've taken several musical diversions. The last one's been Electric Light Orchestra, a band that I've loved since my teens. But, with the possible exception of their Wild West Hero, they couldn't be further from county.
I doubt that anyone except me and 24 ways creator Drew MacLellan have noticed, but since my original Contract Killer in 2008, I've had an article published by 24 ways every year on the same day, December 23rd. Even after seven years, I don't take that spot for granted and I was really chuffed when Drew asked me to write again this year.
When Mark Boulton and I were planning the first edition of Hardboiled Web Design, we both knew who we wanted to illustrate the cover, Kevin Cornell. Kevin's interpretation of the hardboiled detective theme was so perfect that I couldn't have imagined anyone else illustrating for Hardboiled.
The new Hardboiled Web Design Fifth Anniversary Edition is now available to buy from Smashing Magazine, in a beautifully printed softcover book and all ebook formats. I also have a bit of a confession to make.
Andrew Fairlie tweeted to tell me that he'd open sourced his company's 'Getting Good Feedback' document.
Inspired by @Malarkey's Contract Killer, I've started a "Good Design Feedback" open source project https://t.co/zVe6WPTCyX
It looks like Geek Mental Help Week 2015 is getting off to a good start with two mental health related events, both happening on Thursday evening.
Last year's Geek Mental Help Week was, by all accounts, well received and a terrific success. Despite the fact that we pulled it together with sticky tape and string, people told their stories about how mental health issues had affected them and the people who care for them. Those stories were honest and humbling to everyone who read them. I hope that next week, Geek Mental Help Week 2015 can do something similar.
Hot on the heels of announcing the new Hardboiled Web Design Fifth Anniversary Edition, I'm also incredibly excited and nervous to let you know about three new Hardboiled Web Design books that will be published throughout the course of next year. We're calling them 'Hardboiled Web Design Shots.'
I have some very special news to announce about my book. It's a brand new Fifth Anniversary Edition of Hardboiled 'Web Design that's published by Smashing Magazine.
Today Microsoft announced that end of support is coming for older versions of Internet Explorer. This is great news for designers and developers who suffer from having to support legacy versions of that browser and it prompted me to update the public version of my Contract Killer, the popular open-source contract for web designers and developers.
I can't quite believe that it's been almost two years since we launched the previous, Go, go, go, rillas! design of the Stuff & Nonsense website. Today, I'm very pleased to present our next design, 'It's the taste.'
This week at Smashing Conference in New York, I had the very great pleasure of meeting Chris Lilley. I recognised Chris' name, but it took me a day to remember that he had been the chairman of the 'Style and Formatting Properties Working Group' at the W3C, a precursor to the CSS Working Group. Chris is a hugely important person in the history of the web.
When we were in Australia earlier this year, we stopped in Sydney to speak at John Allsopp's Respond Conference and to teach a workshop. A few weeks before those events, John emailed me:
The folks at SydCSS are fantastic supporters of our events, and last year we did a couple of shared events with them. I've dobbed you and I to do a short presentation (it will be the night of Respond.)
I've always enjoyed attending the Shropgeek (R)Evolution events in the past and been slightly jealous of the people that Kirsty's asked to speak. This year, I couldn't be happier that she's asked me to do the final talk of the final (R)Evolution conference on September 25th in beautiful Shrewsbury.
Last week, Creative Bloq published Noah Stokes' article on "Why web design is losing its soul." It's a good read on exactly the same subject that I've been talking about since I spoke at Beyond Tellerrand in Berlin last year.
It's amazing to think that John Allsopp's oft-quoted article, A Dao of Web Design was published fifteen years ago today. A List Apart asked me what John's article means to me now, but rather than focus on Dao's flexible design principles, I wanted to talk about a passage that never seems to get a mention.
I have more than a soft spot for Australia. It's where I'd live if that were possible and where I can see myself retiring to in, you know, twenty or so years. Luckily, I'm going back to Australia long before that, this March in fact, to speak at the fabulous Respond conference and to take my CSS For Responsive Web Design workshop on the road to Brisbane, Melbourne and Perth, as well as Sydney itself.
I care a lot about the things that I use everyday. I need them to be the nicest that I can buy, or at least afford. This means that I care a lot about my computer, phone and the sleeves I keep them safe in. I also care about the pen I write with and most recently about the mug I drink from every day.
Ten years ago, in 2005, my friend Drew MacLellan asked if I would contribute a short article to the then new 24ways, "advent calendar for web geeks" and "a daily dose of web design and development goodness" throughout December.
I know that my taste in country music's mainstream. Mainstream enough that some country aficionados might criticise my 'this Englishman's' lists for not straying far enough from the top of the country charts. The truth is, I like catchy country pop, and while next year I will try harder to discover music that's further from the stereotypical southern dirt road, this year I'm happy to listen to songs about beer, cut-off jeans and cowboy boots, fishing in lakes and trucks and tractors.
I've been very pleased with reactions to my latest 'CSS3 For Responsive Web Design' full-day workshop. Attendees at 'The Web Is…' in Cardiff and 'Beyond Tellerrand' in Berlin really seemed to like its mixture of design and technical content. I'll be hosting this workshop again in several cities in various countries throughout 2015 and there's still one more opportunity to join me in Oslo next week.
Marc Thiele's started posting videos from his excellent Beyond Tellerrand event in Berlin last month.
2014 has been a year of web design anniversaries. In May 2004 I wrote the first entry on this blog. This coming December my CSS Zen Garden submission was accepted and exactly ten years ago today my Invasion of the Body Switchers was published on A List Apart.
Ten years is a very long time in technology and so much has changed for me and for the web since then.
For someone who hasn't travelled or done much conference speaking for the last two years, this past three weeks have been pretty busy with both. I've spoken at three conferences and hosted two workshops and I enjoyed every one.
When I arrived at Beyond Tellerrand in Berlin this week, conference organiser Marc had a nice surprise waiting for me, a new Joli Originals laptop sleeve for my Macbook Pro with Retina Display.
I really like Norway and the Norwegian people are among the friendliest I've met, so I never need convincing to visit them. While I was in Oslo in October, speaking at the Making Web conference I met the wonderful people at IGM and when they asked me to take my CSS3 For Responsive Web Design workshop back to Oslo on December 3rd, I jumped at the chance.
Next week, starting October 27th, is Geek Mental Help Week:
A week-long series of articles, blog posts, conversations, podcasts and events across the web about mental health issues, how to help people who suffer, and those who care for us.
Answer these questions if you'd prefer to send us a little information about your project before you call.

WINDBER, Pa. (AP) Police say a western Pennsylvania man's toilet theft scam didn't end with a clean getaway.
Thirty-two-year-old Bobby Clifford Smith III faces theft and related charges for allegedly exchanging a toilet he didn't buy for gift cards at a Somerset County home improvement store.
State police say Smith, of Windber, entered the store on Aug. 28, grabbed a toilet from a shelf and immediately went to the return line to exchange it for more than $600 in gift cards.
Investigators say surveillance footage from the store captured the entire episode.
The Johnstown Tribune-Democrat (http://bit.ly/TlB18o ) reports Smith was arraigned Tuesday and held on $30,000 bail. Court records don't list an attorney for him.

So what part is news or earth shattering? Scammers (usually druggies) do this sort of thing all of the time. Its the reason normal people get hassled returning stuff.
Home Depot and lowes had a ring of people doing this, cost the borgs over a $100,000 bucks.
The thieves had multiple photo IDs, and got gift cards back which they sold on craiglist.
I had wondered how so many gift cards would be available on craiglist..
This explained it..........
What do you consider being "hassled"?
I can't recall the last time I had any problem returning anything, especially at a borg, with or without a receipt. The only not-even-a hassle thing that happens is that I get asked for my driver's licence if I don't have a receipt. No big deal.
The one and only time I had the most minor of issues is when I returned a couple of hundred dollars worth of stuff to HD and then later that day found a few more items that I had forgotten to take in. Since I was near a different HD, I went in to return them there. The system flagged me as a "serial returner" or something like that and I simply had to show the other receipts to a manager to get the returns approved. Same customer, same day, 2 different stores. I can see that being slightly suspicious. Again, no big deal.
I recently took a pair shoes back to Target after wearing them for a month because the sole split. No receipt. The CSR looked up my debit card in their system, found the transaction and credited me for the shoes. He then called 2 other stores to find out who had a replacement pair. Heck, I was more of a hassle to him than he was to me.
Where/how do you get hassled when returning things?
On Mon, 10 Sep 2012 13:13:39 -0700 (PDT), DerbyDad03
The biggest problem I had with returns in recent years was when I got a digital camera valued at around $150 as an xmas gift. The person bought it at Walmart a month before xmas. After xmas, I did not try it right away, and finally did so around the middle of January. The camera took terrible pictures, and had other problems. I *HAD* a receipt, but they said it was beyond their return policy time limit. Even after telling them that it was a xmas gift, that did not matter. They told me to return it to the manufacturer, (which would have meant paying shipping and waiting, and still getting a camera that I simply did not like).
I asked for the manager, who said that all they could do is exchange it for another identical camera. I explained that the camera not only took terrible photos, but had features that I did not like, and that I wanted a different brand of camera entirely. They finally said that I could get another brand as long as the price was the same or more, and I'd have to pay the difference if it was more. I choose a different brand which cost about $60 more, paid the difference and was happy with that camera.
From this experience and hassle, I learned to not buy xmas gifts too early before xmas, and that they should all be tested immediately after purchase or the holiday. However, this has caused Walmart to lose some of their "Black Friday" sales from me, if they are intended to be a gift, particularly if they are electronics.

Supposedly, the "black" in "Black Friday" refers to the way businesses keep track of profits. I think of it being a bad time to go out. Anyway, I'm spending most of the day putting out holiday decorations.

That's Wal*Mart; they are the absolute *worst* company when it comes to accepting returns. The principle behind the chain is rock bottom pricing, with customer service taking a distant back seat.

What toilet costs $600 - at the Despot?

In a normal country (ie - some country other than the USA), when you return a product, you have to show the original receipt to prove you actually bought it in order to get the refund. Unless this guy (or a friend?) actually bought one of these same toilets and this guy is using that receipt as part of this scam?.
Very funny - and fitting, that this guy tried to pull this stunt with a toilet. An iconic symbol of where you're "headed" as a country.

AUSTIN - A proposed textbook called "Mexican American Heritage" that activists have said is riddled with cultural stereotypes and historical inaccuracies was the center of a rally before the State Board of Education met to take up the issue Tuesday.
Both the hearing and the rally -- at the Texas Education Agency -- were open to the public. Dozens attended, with some even driving in from around Dallas, Houston, San Antonio and beyond to participate. Representatives of the Texas Senate Hispanic Caucus, the Mexican American Legislative Caucus and even State Board of Education (SBOE) members spoke, urging a change.
The problem is that Mexican American Heritage was the only one received when the board called for submissions.
"The call for not just Mexican-American studies a year and a half ago, but for African American studies, for Native American studies and for women studies was a call to action to augment and diversify education," said Marisa Perez, who currently sits on the State Board of Education. "It was not an attack against any other culture. It was not an attack against the American way. We are the American way."
Like many speakers, her words were met with cheers.
Former SBOE member Cynthia Dunbar published Mexican American Heritage, which was meant for high schoolers starting in the 2017-2018 school year.
Activists have been protesting the book for months. A committee of Texas educators and historians released a report detailing 68 factual errors and 73 "interpretive and omission errors" within the text.
For example, the textbook reads of the Chicano Civil Rights Movement, "Chicanos ... adopted a revolutionary narrative that opposed Western civilization and wanted to destroy this society."
Another passage reads, "Stereotypically, Mexicans were viewed as lazy compared to European or American workers ... It was also traditional to skip work on Mondays, and drinking on the job could be a problem."
The TEA said if the state school board approves the book, it will be up to each school district to determine if it's used in instruction.

Musicians stage tribute to America's first professional composer
Even if you haven't heard of Stephen Foster, you've heard his music. "Oh! Susanna" and "Camptown Races" are among the first songs a child hears and learns. Unforgettable melodies, and their place in the public domain, ensure that they have endured, in schools, in toys, in movies and commercials, 160-plus years after Foster wrote them.
Foster is thought to have been the country's first professional composer, and his songs were immensely popular during his lifetime. But the music publishing market soured during the Civil War, and Foster died Jan. 13, 1864, at 37, struggling with a fever and a head injury in his final days, with just 38 cents in his pocket. »Read Full Article

We will. The Philippines is one of the most vulnerable when we talk about Climate Change. Why?

UNESCO and DW-AKADEMIE support new media education in African schools of journalism
DW-AKADEMIE (Deutsche Welle's international center for media development, media consulting and journalism training) is organizing in cooperation with UNESCO, a Train-the-Trainer Course for 10 young lecturers from 6 African journalism education institutions in Rabat, Morocco, from 5 to 16 March 2012. The training is hosted by the Institut supérieur de I'information et de la communication (ISIC).
Journalism educators from Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Madagascar, Morocco, Senegal and Tunisia will share their teaching experiences with a focus on new media and multimedia. In the first week, participants will concentrate on developing their pedagogical skills through a Train-the-Trainer course that emphasizes new teaching methods: more interactive, participative and practice-oriented, thus allowing students to apply newly acquired skills and knowledge directly. In the second week, the group will concentrate on the use of new media, which can play an important role in development in Africa.
"The region has witnessed major change with the recent political and social movements, and media have largely reflected these trends. This not only refers to traditional media, but also to new media. Blogs, citizen journalism and social networks have occupied a key role in this change. It is necessary to incorporate these different forms of expression within training structures in media," said Issiali Aarab, Head of Institut supérieur de I'information et de la communication. "For us this training coincides with the implementation of an ambitious development plan of the Institute. This plan will, on the one hand, raise the standard of the techno-pedagogical infrastructures, and, on the other, represent a vast reform of pedagogical content, aimed at better adapting our training to the changes and demands of the various professions within the field of communication, information and media."
This training is the second of three courses due to take place in Africa within the framework of a UNESCO/DW-AKADEMIE joint initiative to strengthen 20 selected African universities' capacities to offer high quality journalism education programmes for journalists. Staff training forms a key part of this effort in building capacities of teaching staff through training and exchange programmes with other universities. Many African journalism education institutions have in principle embraced professional journalistic standards. However, the majority lacks resources to develop a learning environment able to address the needs of aspiring and working journalists.
The 20 selected universities are part of the UNESCO IPDC Special Initiative entitled "The need of quality journalism education in Africa. Building centres of excellence". In 2007 UNESCO identified a number of institutions with the potential to become centres of excellence and centres of reference in Africa. UNESCO supports these institutions in their drive to achieve excellence in journalism education with a view to becoming role models for other universities in the region.
Professional journalistic standards assure a continuous, independent and accurate flow of information. Media committed to attaining these standards enable citizens' participation and accountability mechanisms. Professional independent media foster democracy.

List, of, prosCONS
List, of cons
The current Xbox 360 has made some serious improvements over previous Xbox 360 consoles, reviews say, especially in the area of reliability. It's also become a formidable set-top box for video streaming. But the Xbox 360 still can't play back Blu-ray Discs. A newer Microsoft video game console -- the Microsoft Xbox One (Est. $500) -- corrects that deficiency, adds other impressive media features and sports much more powerful gaming hardware. However, it can't play Xbox 360 games and its own game library remains very thin.Gaming performance
Looks great, works better. The Microsoft Xbox 360 finishes a close second behind the Sony PlayStation 3 (Est. $200 and up) when it comes to graphics prowess, and well behind the current-generation Sony PlayStation 4 (Est. $400) and Microsoft Xbox One, but that doesn't mean that things don't look pretty darn good on the screen. Games have intricate detail and rich, vivid colors. Load times are quick enough, and game play is generally smooth.ProsExcellent online gaming, Extensive game collection, Quieter, less prone to overheating than older modelsConsNo Blu-ray, No Bluetooth, Kinect motion-control technology unusual, but limited
The biggest operational improvement in the current Xbox 360 is its stability. Previous Xbox 360s were prone to overheating, which led to the dreaded "red ring of death" -- a general system failure that causes the Xbox's power light to glow red -- that's been the source of lots of user complaints as well as a class-action lawsuit. Reviewers say this should be less of a problem with the Xbox 360 Slim, and owner feedback bears that out. A large reason for that improvement is a larger fan and redesigned venting system to prevent overheating. However, the Xbox 360 Slim is still prone to hot temperatures; Engadget.com reviewers say their console was "burning hot to the touch."
Despite the revamped fan, the Xbox 360 is a pretty quiet performer. "When idle, the 360 is almost absolutely silent, and when running its disc drive, the console is barely noticeable with minimal volume," Jeff Bakalar writes at CNET.
The game library is top-notch, as is online gaming, but other consoles have closed the gap, and the latest Xbox One and Sony PS4 have blown right by it. The Xbox 360 still has a selection of games that are exclusive to it, as does the PS3, so the key to which video game console is right for you could boil down to which one offers exclusive games that are your must-haves. One source of griping is that online gaming requires a subscription to Xbox Live Gold (Est. $5 per month). If you are considering the Xbox One instead, keep in mind that the newer console can't play Xbox 360 games.
Look, ma, no Blu-ray. The Xbox 360 lacks a Blu-ray Disc player, but its optical disc can play back DVDs and CDs. The Xbox 360 is DLNA compliant, so you can stream content stored on a networked computer, and Microsoft offers a large Xbox Video store. Purchased or rented content from the Xbox Video store can be watched on any device -- tablet or smartphone. A SmartGlass app lets users send purchased content from their mobile device to their Xbox 360 and use their smartphone or tablet as a second screen for related interactive features.
There's a ton of streaming content available via the Xbox 360, but you'll need a subscription to Xbox Live Gold to get to most of it. Virtually all major video-streaming partners are represented, including Netflix, Amazon Instant, Hulu Plus, Vudu, CinemaNow and more. If you have a subscription from a participating cable provider, you can also access content from premium channels such as HBO and Epix. On the sports front you'll find MLB.TV, NBA Game Time and ESPN. Subscribers to Comcast or FiOS can even use their Xbox 360s in place of normal cable set-top boxes, albeit with some limitations.
The nicest Xbox yet. "The redesigned Xbox 360 has the same horsepower, game library, and rich online experience as previous Xbox 360 models, but contains several key tweaks and improvements -- inside and out -- that make it the best Xbox yet," Jeffrey Wilson writes at PCMag.com. The new gaming console is smaller and sleeker than previous Xbox consoles, and it's outfitted in a glossy black finish with touch-sensitive buttons. The console comes with a wireless controller, headset and composite AV cable.
The Xbox 360 is currently available with either 250 GB or 4 GB of storage, on its own or in bundles with the Microsoft Xbox 360 Kinect voice- and gesture-control peripheral (Est. $100) and/or select games.
Microsoft Xbox 360 Slim, Jeff Bakalar, June 24, 2010
CNET gives the Xbox 360 an Outstanding rating. Jeff Bakalar says the Xbox 360 is quieter and less prone to overheating than its predecessor. Although he doesn't think it's a mandatory upgrade if you own a previous-generation Xbox, Bakalar says the console has improved.
2. PCMag.com
Xbox 360 (250GB), Jeffrey L. Wilson, Nov. 22, 2011
The Xbox 360 earns an Excellent rating from PCMag.com, and Jeffrey Wilson calls it "the best Xbox 360 yet." Although he gives it a positive review, Wilson says the PlayStation 3 remains the site's Editors' Choice winner, and the 2012 refresh of that console retains that recognition.
Microsoft Xbox 360 250GB Review, Hugo Jobling, Feb. 17, 2012
The Xbox 360 earns a Recommended label from Britain's TrustedReviews.com. Hugo Jobling says the console is "the best Xbox Microsoft has made thus far," and he appreciates the new features, including integrated Wi-Fi. A separate review also gives the Recommended label to the Kinect, though it's noted that the motion controller won't appeal to hard-core gamers.
Microsoft Xbox 360 Slim Review, Ryan Fleming, June 19, 2010
The Xbox 360 receives 4 stars out of 5 and a Recommended rating from DigitalTrends.com. Ryan Fleming says the built-in Wi-Fi is long overdue but a welcome upgrade, and that the Xbox is quieter and cooler as well. "If you are looking for a new console and Blu-ray isn't your thing, then you won't be disappointed with the redesigned Xbox 360," he writes.

New Xbox 360 250GB Review, Sean Hollister, July 2, 2010
Sean Hollister says the Xbox 360 is more stylish and energy-efficient than previous versions, but he doesn't think it is worth an upgrade for current users. Still, he says it is "the best Xbox 360 ever made, bar none."
6. Wired
Microsoft Xbox 360 Slim , Terrence Russell, Sept. 2, 2010
Wired gives the Xbox 360 an overall rating of 8 out of 10. Like most reviewers, Terrence Russell says it is not a must-upgrade for current Xbox owners, although it is much improved over previous generations.
7. BestBuy.com
Xbox 360 Consoles, Contributors to BestBuy.com, As of March 2014
Various versions and bundles of the Xbox 360 gather hundreds of reviews at BestBuy.com. The base 4G Xbox 360 earns more than 200 on its own, with a 4.5 star rating. Around 93 percent of reviewers say that they would recommend it to a friend.

The University of Northern Colorado men's basketball team is ready to use Eastern Washington's aggressiveness against the Eagles.
If the Bears can do that, they might just keep themselves in the race for the Big Sky Conference tournament. If not, it could be all over for UNC.
The Bears play a crucial game against Eastern Washington on Thursday that may just decide their tournament fate.
UNC sits in eighth place in the conference standings, a half-game out of the seventh and final spot available in the conference tournament with three games to go.
Right behind the Bears sits EWU, only a half-game behind UNC, but equal with the Bears in the loss column. A win would also give UNC the tiebreaker with the Eagles by virtue of their victory over Eastern Washington earlier this season.
"This road trip is huge for us," UNC guard Tevin Svihovec said. "This is pretty much make or break for us. So we just need to come out and execute the game plans and work hard and put a solid game together and come out with a win."
Part of that game plan against Eastern Washington is to use its aggressiveness as a shot-blocking team against the Eagles. EWU is the top shot-blocking team in the conference with 5.9 per game. The Eagles are coming off a nonconference victory over Sam Houston State in which they broke a 21-year-old Big Sky record with 16 blocks in the game.
Eastern Washington freshman forward Venky Jois leads the conference in shot blocks with 2.5 per contest. He had seven blocks the last time the Eagles faced UNC, a 72-56 victory for the Bears.
However, UNC sophomore forward Tim Huskisson said that shot blockers like Jois tend to get off their feet and that's when the Bears can take advantage.
"I think it is patience, definitely," UNC forward Tim Huskisson said. "Guys will get open and they want to rush shots up, but especially with this team we can't do that with their athleticism. We have to shot-fake and really get them to jump and with us doing that, that will lead to them getting in foul trouble which will play into our hands with us having big strong guys in the paint. So we will try to use one of their strong points to our advantage and get them to jump and get some of their guys in foul trouble."
While some teams may be intimidated to go inside against a shot-blocking team like the Eagles, Svihovec said it doesn't change the game plan for UNC. Actually, he said the Bears are likely to go even more inside to their big men like forward Derrick Barden and center Connor Osborne and let them take advantage of the Eagles shot-blockers.
"We need to shot-fake, obviously, and get them in foul trouble – use that as a weakness of theirs," Svihovec said. "Get to the free-throw line and get some easy points there. I think we still go inside a ton."
After watching film of the last game against Eastern Washington, UNC guard Paul Garnica agrees with Huskisson that patience is the key – especially with Jois.
"The first time we played him, we were kind of rushing our shots and just trying to go around him instead of through him," Garnica said. "Now we are getting more calm and stuff and I feel like we are smarter to the point where we are just going to shot-fake him and if he is up in the air, just try to get a foul on him each time."
This is also a crucial week for the UNC women's basketball team as it tries to overcome a disappointing loss to Southern Utah on Saturday that dropped the Bears a half-game out of first with three games remaining for UNC in the race for the regular-season championship and the right to host the Big Sky tournament.
Not only does UNC have a critical game at home at 7:05 p.m. Thursday against Eastern Washington, which is only one game behind UNC in the loss column. Then on Saturday, the Bears conclude the home regular season against Portland State.
Meanwhile, UNC will probably be scoreboard watching as conference-leading Montana also plays a pair of important games at home on Thursday against Southern Utah and a critical match-up at Montana State on Saturday.
A loss by Montana against Montana State could really help UNC in the tiebreakers since Montana and UNC have already split their season series against each other, which is the first tiebreaker.
The second tiebreaker is how each team did against the rest of the conference in descending order of finish in the conference standings.
So far, UNC and Montana have both lost to Eastern Washington and Montana State while the Bears have lost to Southern Utah. However, UNC has already beaten Montana State once this season at home while the Grizzlies lost their only meeting so far with the Bobcats at home.
Since Montana State currently sits two games ahead of Southern Utah in the standings, UNC would likely win the tiebreaker if Montana lost to the Bobcats no matter how the Grizzlies did against Southern Utah.
It has been a tough season so far for the UNC women's softball team, but finally things look to be turning around. The Bears finished an undefeated weekend at the Phyllis Rafter Memorial Tournament and Windsor native Megan Wilkinson picked up Big Sky Pitcher of the Week honors for her efforts.
Wilkinson helped UNC go 2-0-1 in the tournament by finishing with a 1.11 ERA over 12.2 innings of work while picking up a win and a save.
Wilkinson's win came in a 10-2 victory over Akron in which she pitched five innings while giving up only two runs on two hits with a walk.
She was also pitching a gem in the tournament finale against North Carolina State when the 0-0 game was called in the seventh inning due to a drop-dead time limit. Wilkinson gave up only two hits to the Wolfpack with two strikeouts.
Her save came in an 8-7 win against Georgia State.
It is an exciting time for the UNC women's swimming and diving team as the Bears began competition today in their first-ever Western Athletic Conference Championships in San Antonio.
The Bears enter the meet with more than 30 athletes in the top 20 spots of events and all of their relays seeded in the top five.

San Bernardino, CA - The Inland Empire 66ers (39-33) have found ways to win in almost every fashion this season, and on Friday night the formula centered around production from the bottom of the order in the 66ers 5-1 victory over the Lake Elsinore Storm (28-44).
Brennan Gowens matched his RBI total on the year, crushing a three-RBI triple to deep center off Travis Jankowski's glove. That shot gave the 66ers their first lead of the contest, 3-1 in the fourth. Gowens contribution turned out to be plenty in the victorious effort. Starter Danny Reynolds (6-7) pumped strikes all night long on the bump, going five innings allowing one run while striking out seven.
Abel Baker extended his hitting streak to six games by singling in the fourth inning. The 24-year-old finished the night 2-4 and was robbed of a double in his first plate appearance. The Storm put together nine hits on the night, all singles against the 66ers staff. Eduard Santos lowered his ERA to an impressive 1.13 clip by throwing two scoreless innings of relief in his fourth appearance of the year.
Inland Empire is now 9-2 in its last 11 games, and have won their last seven consecutive home contests. The 66ers will try to make it eight straight on Saturday when they host game three of their four game set with the Lake Elsinore Storm. It will be a giveaway day at San Manuel Stadium with Bernie Pillow Pets, presented by the California Air National Guard, being handed out pre-game in limited supply . For information on 66ers tickets or to schedule your next fun filled group outing, contact the 66ers front office at (909)888-9922.

Melbourne - Superstar David Beckham said on Monday he was no closer to deciding his football future as he prepared in Australia for what may be his last match as a Los Angeles Galaxy player.
Beckham, 36, is about to come out of contract with LA Galaxy and is believed to be weighing up a huge offer to play for French club Paris St Germain, or stay in the United States.
But the former England captain said he is unlikely to decide until early in the New Year.
After the Galaxy won the Major League Soccer championship he said he wanted to take some time out with his family before making a decision.
"I wanted to end this season with a championship and we did that, then I wanted some time on this tour to be able to celebrate it," Beckham told reporters ahead of Tuesday's exhibition game against Melbourne Victory.
"I haven't actually started thinking about it yet. Once I get some down time, then I'll start thinking what's going to be best.
"I'm going to spend some time with the family, have a good Christmas."
Beckham scored as LA Galaxy trounced the Philippine national team 6-1 in Manila at the weekend as part of the MLS champions' Asian tour.

Brad Paisley takes selfies, plays new song at fun Marcus Amphitheater show
Yes, Brad Paisley took some heat for last year's controversial song "Accidental Racist."
And yeah, ABC's enormously hyped new singing show he judges on, "Rising Star," just debuted to mediocre ratings and even worse reviews.
And sure, Paisley's Summerfest show Friday is somewhat overshadowed by the hottest guy in country right now, Luke Bryan, who will be standing on that same stage Saturday.
But Paisley still packed in a near-capacity crowd at the Marcus Amphitheater. And with wit, charm and serious guitar chops, he gave his paying public a kick-butt modern country show.
And he did it by starting off with a brand new song — "Moonshine in the Trunk," the title track for his 11th, out Aug. 26. Playing unreleased material can be a risky venture for many artists. Beginning a big concert with a barely-heard track is a suicide mission. But "Moonshine" was clearly concocted with country radio in mind; on first listen for many Friday, it was already a crowd-pleasing, roadhouse ripper.
But just to ensure the audience would be in his corner, Paisley quickly followed it up with the cheeky backwoods flirter "Ticks," the hit single from his 2007 album "5th Gear." And he put a little fresh blood into the rendition, just for the Wisconsin crowd — a reference to beer was changed to Old Milwaukee, a lyric about a girl's lower back butterfly tattoo was changed into an Aaron Rodgers tattoo — and Paisley stepped out into the front row for some biting bluesy country swing riffing and selfies with fans.
Audience selfies were a recurring occurrence, proof that the 41-year-old country star was up on current trends. And he used that savvy to re-energize the clever satire of the 11-year-old "Celebrity" (sample lyric: "I'll get to cry to Barbara Walters when things don't go my way / I'll get community service no matter which law I break"). As Paisley and the band played, videos on the big screen behind them showed a mascot version of Paisley with a massive head, drunk in a hotel room, on the cover of tabloids — and riding a wrecking ball naked, a la Miley Cyrus. Then a real-life mascot Paisley came out to high five fans in the first rows (no selfies for him though; his head probably wouldn't fit in the pics).
From there, Paisley (the real one) made a pretty seamless transition to the serious "This is Country Music," beginning the song on a stage extension over the crowd, alone on acoustic guitar. He then took out a sharpie, gave the guitar his John Hancock and handed it to an ecstatic girl in the crowd, before the band joined in, and the giant screen paid tribute to the greats — Conway Twitty, Tammy Wynette, Merle Haggard — with a special message, and Paisley's hats-off tribute, to George Jones.
In time, Paisley's name might fit comfortably within their ranks.
Who would have thought 10 years ago we'd see thousands of people at Summerfest passionately singing along to a Grammy-winning country hit partially written by Bob Dylan ... sung by the guy from Hootie & the Blowfish? But that's exactly the borderline surreal experience that transpired when Darius Rucker sang "Wagon Wheel" at the end of his opening set Friday. Rucker proved why he's one of country's most unlikely, but deserved, successes in recent years with warm renditions of feel-good songs "Alright" and "This" — and Hootie songs "Only Wanna Be With You" and "Hold My Hand" still sounded pretty good live, backed by lap steel and banjo.
Print deadline prevented a full review of Friday's concert.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) Health Center
Fibromyalgia and IBS: What's the Connection?
Knots grip your arms and legs, and your muscles ache. Your belly has cramps, too. Could the pain be connected? If you have irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or fibromyalgia, it's likely you have the other one, too. They often happen together, but how they are related is not understood.
Functional Disorders
Only a small amount of people in the U.S. have fibromyalgia. But for people with IBS it's much more common. Over half of IBS patients also have symptoms of fibromyalgia.
"In general, it is likely that they coexist for years, but they can flare at the same time or at different times," says Lin Chang, MD, co-director of the Oppenheimer Center for Neurobiology of Stress.
IBS and fibromyalgia fall into a broad category called functional disorders. This is when your body isn't working as it should, but doctors can't see anything wrong with you.
The pain of IBS is centered inside your body, in the internal organs. With fibromyalgia you have another kind of pain, which is in the skin and deep tissue. Even though the source of discomfort stems from different places, researchers and doctors believe their causes are related.
In the journal Mayo Clinic Proceedings, Daniel Clauw MD, director of the Chronic Pain and Fatigue Research Center at the University of Michigan, writes that many pain experts believe that they are a single lifelong disorder that causes pain in different places over time.
How Are They Related?
With both conditions, you have more brain activity in the parts that process pain. Your sense of pain can be enhanced.
The exact problem is not well understood, but in these functional disorders, your nervous system is overly sensitive or hyperactive. Your immune systems is thought to play a role, and doctors are looking at genetics, too.
Stress can lead to any of these functional disorders. In one survey, more than half of fibromyalgia patients reported symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder, a condition that affects the brain.
What Can You Do?
Antidepressants can help both IBS and fibromyalgia. You could also have trouble with sleeping, headaches, anxiety, and depression, so talk to your doctor about prescription medicines that could help.
