upgrade drum/disc
The original 2007 SE brakes have 82,000 miles on them, and the rears drums are shot. The stock disc/drum combo worked ok except in the mountains when in a hurry- the fronts heatup and get scary. Can the stock combo be upgraded reasonably? Has any one done this instead of the rear disc change? What parts work and hold up?
If I do change the rears to disc do I need to change the master cylinder for balance?
A great bang for the buck would be the SVT front brakes. 300mm rotors & bigger calipers, that bolt right on. You will need 16'' wheels.Some 15'' might work. Your stock brake lines will work, but I install new ones or upgrade to Stainless steel lines. Your cheapest route for the rear is to keep the drums & get new shoes & turn the drums or replace them w/ new ones. Yes you can convert over to disc. The '05-'07 ST's have 10'' disc which are more readiy available, then the svt's 11'' ones. The stock master cylinder will work great. Hit up the B&S section. There are a few sticky's on this subject at the top of this section.

Virtual assistant complement office space hub
BAXTER — Virtual assistants offer office support for everything from creating mailing lists to creating and delivering Power Point presentations.
Tessa Hall, owner of Lakes Area Virtual Assistant in Brainerd, says she can work on tasks for companies without needing them to provide her a desk or benefits. Clients may need individual projects completed or ongoing assignments. Hall started her business in order to be a stay-at-home mom with her young daughter. She educated herself and took online training on all the aspects of starting her own virtual assistant business.
"I had hopes the clients would just come," she said, but getting her name out there has taken more than hanging out a virtual shingle.
Now she handles email marketing for Brainerd Floral.
Her company is a complement to her husband Scott Hall's Brainerd BizSpace endeavor. Customers in need of office space may also need someone to handle their event planning, invoicing, data management, newsletter, bulk mailings, even trade shows. That's where the virtual assistant comes in at a rate of $30 to $35 per hour depending on short-term occasional support or regular clients.
"We can work as little or as much as the client needs," Hall said.
For 10 years Hall has been the Lord of Life Church wedding planner.
"I love it," she said enthusiastically. "I just really love it. If I could do that full time, it would be awesome."
In the meantime, Hall is willing to run the gamut of services with her fledgling company.
She said social media for business needs to come into its own in the lakes area.
"People need to start realizing the power of it," Hall said of inexpensive ways to promote business. "I want the word to get out that virtual assistants exist."
At Brainerd BizSpace, effort is going into a vendor fair to bring together home-based businesses here.
"I really want to build the local market," she said.

How many days should you wait to remove the stitches, after getting a facial mole removed via punch method?
Hello, I had a small but raised facial mole removed on my face (near the corner of my lip) 2 days ago. The dermatologist removed it via punch method. This method required I get stitches, the total length of the stitched area is probably just over half an inch. I was wondering how long I need to wait before getting the stitches removed? I initially heard 7 days from one nurse after the procedure. But when I called back to make sure, I heard 10 days. Please let me know, thank you.
Doctor Answers 2
Stitch removal
Typically, I remove stiches from the facial area in 5-7 days. This depends on the patient's age, medications, overall health, and area of the face sutured. I would advise you to call your physician's office and have them clarify exactly when the stitches should be removed. Best wishes.
How many days should you wait to remove the stitches, after getting a facial mole removed via punch method?
I typically remove sutures in 3-5 days on the face for someone with normal healing parameters. It is frustrating when you get mixed messages. I would ask to speak with your doctor directly to gain his/her advice. Best of luck.

MountainStar Sports Group to commit $12.1 million toward El Paso ballpark
EL PASO, Texas - A couple of weeks after members of City Council chastised the city manager and project engineers for asking for more money for the Downtown ballpark, MountainStar Sports Group announced they are prepared to commit $12.1 million in additional revenues to fund the ballpark construction. City officials said the new formula will make money for the city.
MountainStar Sports Group is the ownership group that will be relocating the Triple-A Tucson Padres to El Paso. The ballpark is being built on the site of the old City Hall with the goal of being ready for the 2014 season.
Mayor John Cook has placed the item and related items on the June 18 City Council agenda to formalize the agreement. He said City Manager Joyce Wilson and city staff worked with MountainStar to come up with an agreement, after the direction of city council to find ways to fund the stadium without extending the city's financial commitment.
City Council, who acts as a corporation when voting on ballpark issues, is going to decide on Tuesday whether to increase the amount of money they borrow for the ballpark from $52.8 million to $60.8 million. This is how the city will pay for that debt: it says $48.7 million is going to come from the hotel occupancy tax visitors pay when they stay in El Paso hotels and $12.1 million would be paid by MountainStar Sports Group. City officials said zero dollars will come from property tax-payers.
The $12.1 million MountainStar has committed to contributing would be secured by doubling their lease payments to the city to occupy the stadium, from $200,000 to $400,000 a year.
They've also agreed to extend the term of MountainStar's lease and non-relocation agreement from 25 to 30 years.
According to the City, this plan will make money because now any sales tax - made at the ballpark - isn't needed to pay for it - so it would go into the city's general fund - which is the city's big pot of money to run the city.
"People are saying this is going to be an increased burden on the local taxpayer. Actually, it's gong to decrease the burden on the taxpayer because we're going to have additional revenues above and beyond," said Mayor John Cook.
City officials said that over the 30-year lease of the ballpark, they estimate an excess in revenue from those sales taxes, ticket surcharges and even rent from MountainStar - that will total $27-million.
All of that, city officials said would go to the city's general fund. Mountain Star's lease increases by 10% every five years. "in the later years of the lease, you're talking about an annual rent in the 700,000s plus range," said Josh Hunt, of MountainStar.

Press Reports: 'Brilliance, confusion' mark Zeppelin show
As Led Zeppelin neared the end of its three-hour set Wednesday night, lead vocalist Robert Plant dedicated a song to "the atmosphere we've reached here tonight." He was referring to the fact that no plate glass windows had been smashed and only ,one firecracker had exploded up to that point at the Coliseum concert.
All too often, the same fans that come to hear Plant and Zeppelin sing about lovely ladies with flowers in their hair and the pleasures of a walk down a country lane, end up throwing rocks at windows and policemen and tossing bottles and fireworks among their "brothers" in the audience. But Wednesday's capacity crowd was fairly well-behaved and appreciative of this English band that is approaching a decade in existence. It even allowed the Zep to sit down and perform a tasteful acoustic set, unmolested by the usual burnt-out screams of "rock n' roll!!" and "play 'Stairway to Heaven,' man!!"
Jimmy Page, master of any instrument that has strings on it, donned a mandolin; John Paul Jones handled acoustic guitar, John Bonham banged on a tambourine; and Plant, whose voice is a formidable instrument in itself, sang with a piercing clarity and confidence reminiscent of years gone by.
The acoustic set included admirable versions of "Going to California," "Black Country Woman," "The Battle of Evermore" and "Bron-y-aur Stomp." In the midst of it all, Plant remarked, "This is beginning to feel good, man."
This veteran of four Led Zeppelin tours was glad to see the group abandon the greatest hits concert format of 1973 and 1975, in favor of a well-rounded display of both commercially successful and fairly obscure selections.
Plant told the-audience, "We've been looking at some of the stuff that we didn't feel we could do on stage in the past and have decided to have a go at it this time."
Unfortunately, a muddy, blaring sound system ruined many of the electric rockers of the evening. The band opened the concert with a perfectly dreadful version of "The Song Remains the Same," which was sabotaged by a distorted mechanical delivery.
Zeppelin later beat "Achilles Last Stand," a driving piece from "Presence," into the ground. However a powerful rendition of "Kashmire," perhaps the best executed song of the night, and Page's masterful slide on "In My Time of Dying" balanced the band's performance.
Other rockers that stood out where "Nobody's Fault But Mine" and "Sick Again," which featured some classic Plant sexual gyrations and lusting vocals about "L.A. queens" and 16-year-olds with "lips like cherries...locked up in the hotel room every night."
Later, as an eerie cloudlike fog encompassed the stage, "No Quarter" showcased the keyboard and synthesizer expertise of Jones. The laser show which featured during "No Quarter" proved to be one of the more advanced displays on the rock stage today.
"Bonzo" Bonham also delivered a driving freight train type of drum solo, running his skins and tympanies through a synthesizer. It climaxed with an attack on a gong standing behind Bonham's drooglike body. Overall, Zeppelin's performance alternated between periods of brillance and confusion. The group's unique concert format did illustrate that the Zep epitomizes a dying breed in the world of rock n' roll for large audiences— a band that can sit down and play sweet acoustic music and then stand up to hit you in the face with blistering rock n' roll.

Zeppelin fans cause 2nd Cincy riot
For the second time in three days police had to battle fans of the British rock group "Led Zeppelin," but police doubled their manpower and kept trouble at a minimum here yesterday.
An 18-year-old Dayton fan plunged 20 feet to a concrete ramp while trying to scale a wall, police said. Stanley Blair was reported in fair condition at Cincinnati hospital. Asst City Manager Henry Sandman told the Cincinnati City Council that 80 police officers, paid for by the Cincinnati Coliseum, will be used hereafter to prevent outbreaks of trouble.

Led Zeppelin April 20th 1977 Riverfront Colisium Cincinnati Ohio
It was two weeks before my 15th birthday...me and my best friend Jim Graham found ourselves on the floor of the colisium about 10 yards from the stage eyeball to eyeball with Page and Plant...as the laser lights danced on the ceiling of the colisium during John Paul Jone's extended piano solo I recall having an out-of-body-experience where I forgot where I was or that I was even in a body for a moment or so... Jim and I saw The Song Remains the Same movie at the Piqua Cinema about 3 times the previous fall...we knew all 8 LZ albums inside and out..and now we were actually face to face with Led Zeppelin...(my brother Pat was then a student at Xavier University and he scored us tickets)...April 20th, 1977 still rates as one of the 10 best days of my entire life...it was like a divine revelation and influenced me to become a lifetime student of music and mastering the guitar...in the glow of our first Led Zeppelin concert we could never have imagined that this would be their last US tour and that tragedy was in their future.

What is the answer?
AND what's with the "hate" reply am I missing something in this post
BTW they can bot lose the SB not on the field but off with dumb remarks as many SF players keep whining about last year. It was the "fumble" stupid!
The Ravens can lose because the media keeps praising and then ddegradin Ray Lewis with the "He's a great player, BUT remember the murder"
And the SB losesif theyy keep previeiwing all the commercials. If we've seen them all, we head for the john and/or the refrigerator, or the buffet table
Having noo dog in the fight, I will cheer for the Ravens "quothe the Reddog" because of the stupid Jerry Jones similar type remarks "We were the best team even the Giants beat us" It was the "fumble" stupid

So from Raeanns apt where I'm staying in Freiburg I have to walk exactly one quarter of a block to the tram then switch to the ICE train (fitting name) then the free bus to the ski resort in Feldberg
The hill was a good warm up ride before I try to kill myself in the Alps next week. The snow was pretty dece. but gorgeous blue bird day made up for it. two days later now, and I'm still in recovery mode from all the snowboarding muscles that haven't been used in a long time. The Air India
snowboards fly for free program really paid off, in that I didn't have to pay anything to bring my own gear.
Today another Alaska connection comes in town, Yoshua my token mexican jew friend (everyone needs one especially one bringing a snowboard). Met him back in the Alaska Fisheries Observer days. Anyway should be a good traveling partner, we're heading to Amsterdam in a few weeks to visit my old CSU Roomie Audrey and check out all the Dam culture. OK enough words here are some 2-dimensional images of me when I was younger, but not much younger.

st: Log transformation and related issues

st: Log transformation and related issues
Tue, 11 Aug 2009 23:46:18 +0200
Dear Listers,
In my econometric specification, I'm using the total number of
employees (EMP) and the share of highly educated employees (EDU) as
two important explanatory variables of my analysis. These are coming
directly from two separate survey questions asking about the number of
employees and the share of employees with a university degree. I'm now
encountering the following three problems:
1- Adding EMP and EDU in the model may lead to some sort of systematic
negative correlation between the two variables as EDU in essence
equals: # of highly educated employees /EMP. However, EDU in my survey
is not calculated but directly asked. Thus, that will reduce the
problem compared to a situation of artificial correlation by
construction. Yet, do you still find it problematic to add EMP and EDU
at the same time? If yes, what would you recommend?
2- As a solution, I can rely on logarithmic transformation and add
ln_EMP and ln_EDU into regression; this way, the inherit correlation
manifest itself in the corresponding estimated coefficients of these
two variables. The log transformation is indeed a good solution from
another reason as well. These two variables are highly skewed and log
can reduce the effect of outliers (and I can see that by obtaining
totally different results when I use log). However, the main problem
is the very high number of zeros for EDU variable; this way, taking
log will drop these observations out of the analysis, which will bias
the sample and results (about 25% of the sample is discarded this
way). A solution is to impute zero values of EDU with a very small
number, say 1 e-06. Is this a scientifically valid approach? What are
the alternatives?
3- Finally, we might come to the conclusion that EDU is better to be
transferred manually to the # of highly educated employees (by
multiplying EDU to EMP) and then apply log on EMP only (to avoid the
problem of many zeros for EDU) and then add ln_EMP and # of highly
educated employees into the regression. Scientifically speaking, is it
wise to add EMP in log form but # high-educated employees in absolute
Overall, what would be your suggested specification, concerning all
the above issues?
I so much appreciate your support and guidelines.
Best wishes,

The trend for tattoos is not exactly breaking news. In the last couple of years, tatts have gone from somewhat of a fad to a raging, unstoppable pandemic. Whether you get a tattoo to express your individuality, for artistic expression, or just because Bieber got one, there is no denying its popularity.
We recently discovered a much more intriguing side to tattoos and tattoo… prison tattoos and their secret meanings. After this blog they're probably not going to be as secret any more, but you get the point. If you know of any that we haven't included below, please leave us a comment and we'll add it to this ever-expanding list!
It stands for "All Cops Are Bastards". This tattoo is commonly found on the bodies of British Prisoners.
This tattoo represents evil. Prisoners who want to showoff their power in prison carve this tattoo.
It is a combination of two numbers, 14 and 88. 14 represents a fourteen worded quote by Nazi leader "David Lane" who said "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for White Children". The number 88 represents 8th alphabet making 88 as HH. HH is a shorthand of "Heil Hitler".
It symbolized the affiliation to "Aryan Brotherhood", one of the most dangerous prison gangs.
It is a pattern know as "quincunx". The four outer dots represents four prison walls and the fifth inner dot shows the criminal.
This symbol shows affiliation one of the biggest Hispanic gangs in US, "Latin Kings Gang".
La Eme means "The M". This shows the connection with the largest gangs in US – "The Mafia".
A person with this tattoo will belong to a 70,000 membered gang "Mara Salvatrucha gang from El Salvador".
This shows the association with "Neustra Familia" gang which links to Hispanic gangs in Northern California.
This does not show connection with a gang. A person having this tattoo will be a gambler.
A person inked with SUR 13 would be a member of Sureños , a Southern California gang controlled by Mexican Mafia.
An inmate with a teardrop right below the corner of the eye would be a murder. Sometimes, a number of such teardrops show that the person has multiple victims.
This tattoo is a representation of long prison sentence. It symbolizes "doing time".
This tattoo signifies a lengthy term in prison.
This tattoo illustrates "gang life style" and its secret meaning is "my crazy life".
In Russia, this is the highest rank which a convict can avail. It symbolizes "Prince Of Thieves".
This tattoo is used to show the relegation of some prisoners. It stands for "Evil, Wicked, Mean, Nasty".

A button to ease the flow of knowledge
A button to ease the flow of knowledge
Sunday, December 8, 2013 - 12:24
In his 1597 essay Meditationes Sacrae Sir Francis Bacon wrote "ipsa scientia potestas est" or to those of us who don't speak Latin "knowledge itself is power". The pool of scientific knowledge is certainly powerful; it is the means by which we can eliminate disease, build rockets that take us to the moon and (as it's the festive season) light up our Christmas trees.
Now, a new project conceived by medical students David Carroll and Joseph McArthur is challenging this artificial barrier to knowledge. The Open Access Button is a tool that can be plugged into any Internet browser and used to record instances of knowledge restriction. You can find out how to quickly install it and use it here.
Come up against a pay wall? With the OA Button you can register exactly when and where a 'published' paper is not being made public. This instance of restriction will then be added to a map, showcasing all of the occasions that someone has pressed the button. More and more of those occasions of 'access denied', of knowledge barriers are now laid bare.
The Button was launched just under 3 weeks ago and already there have been 2499 recorded instances of collisions with pay walls. David Carroll told me last week that; "The spark for the Open Access Button came from a number of things. This time last year Joseph and I didn't even know what Open Access was. We were both on a year out from our degrees working as researchers in well-funded institutions. Despite how well these institutions were funded, we were denied access to the research we needed to work and learn on a daily basis. Back then, we didn't know there was a solution."
In March the pair met Nick Shockey, Director of the Right to Research Coalition and realized how big of an issue the scholarly pay wall represents. "We've seen that restricting access to research slows innovation, kills curiosity and harms patients. Collisions with publishers' pay walls occur regularly, not just for members of the public with limited or zero access to university libraries, but also for researchers, both rich and poor, whose libraries cannot maintain subscriptions to every journal."
In David's words this is when the pair "got angry about the problem, wanted to do something about it and had an idea. This idea was the Open Access Button." Joe and David's commitment has also been strongly influenced by their own experience. It's an experience that I share.
"We haven't lived in a time in which we haven't had instant access to the information we need. We want to take ownership of the system of scholarly communication that we're inheriting, as it conflicts irreconcilably with the power of the Internet that we've grown up with."
David and James are already looking towards the future, using their passion for open access and knowledge distribution to conceive the next version of the Button "We're already engaging with the community to see what the next edition of the button should look like and then finding the funding and developers to build it, launch it, and support it."
David ended by letting me know that "There is much, much more to come. Trust me." Personally, I believe him. I also believe the OA Button to be a really fantastic project, I see scientific research as a force, with quite literally the power to change the world. Science is all about enquiring minds, for students, for researchers, for nations and for everyone. I look forward to the day when we wave goodbye to the restriction of scientific knowledge. Here's hoping that the Open Access Button will help us to see in that day a bit quicker.

Anything by Hunter S. Thompson, dude was an insane genius (dual meaning) and he actually started off as a sport writer and always held sports close to all of his works and heart. I gotta thank the public library for having EVERY SINGLE ONE of his books and when I was a 'security guard' for a town dock I got to rip through all of them
Speaking of, I wanna start his whole collection over. DAMN he was great
Call me a kid (which i am) but i love the percy jackson series.
Almost done with Catching Fire and must say it isn't THAT bad. The concept is decent and I'm hearing that there is a cliffhanger.I think the 1st book was way too obvious and the movie did it no justice. I knew from a mile away that something like that was going to happen. Hopefully the second book ends with a bang. Once this book is done I might start reading Crimw and Punishment along with my Ascent of money book.

The Queen & The Duchess of Cambridge, both in green as they meet the media.
Pictures from Getty Images
[ad#zazzleright-diamondjubilee]On November 28, Her Majesty opened up the doors of Buckingham Palace to the world's media to kick start her Diamond Jubilee celebrations. And she was armed with strong royal company. The Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Charles, the Duchess of Cornwall, and the Duke & Duchess of Cambridge joined the Queen and met with 350 journalists and photographers. Interactions were off-the-record and pictures were limited. Interestingly, Buckingham Palace's East Gallery was renamed the Tweet Suite for the night for those who wanted to post online messages about the event.

William, Kate and Harry are expected to visit team training camps in the run-up to the Games, attend some of the main events in London next summer, and champion the search for future Olympic stars. They join an elite group of 27 of this country's most inspirational medal-winning Olympians as official ambassadors for Team GB and Paralympics GB.

Prince Harry Meets up with Chelsy Davy
Back from training in the US, Prince Harry bumped into ex-girlfriend (???) Chelsy Davy at The Henry Van Straubenzee Memorial carol concert at St Luke's Church in Chelsea, London. The pair were seen greeting each other with a friendly hug and kiss as they attended the event of which Harry is a patron for the charity. A large gathering from the royal circle was there. Carole and Pippa Middleton were also present.
After the charity event, Harry & Chelsy met up at The Brompton Club until 2:30am. They went home separately.

I would like to thank everyone who helped at my benefit from donations to food and the slab run. I couldn't believe all the family and friends who attended. It was great to see everybody. I'm very blessed to have family and friends like I do. A special thank you to family and friends for all the hard work and organizing the benefit in such a short time. It's been a journey since last October but I'm still fighting the cancer and won't give up. Nona (Dylla) Bottke The Family of LaMars Yost would like to thank all of our friends and family for the kind words, cards, visits, memorials, flower arrangements, food, prayers, and support before and after LaMars' passing. Thank you to the Good Samaritan staff who were so helpful during LaMars' illness. Their expert care was exceptional and special thanks to the Mayo Clinic Hospice Team. We'd also like to thank Pastor Don Rose for his many visits to our home and the nursing home and for the wonderful celebration of life service. Additionally, thanks to Chris Falteisek for providing the music at the funeral service. We would also like to extend our thanks to the pallbearers.

Vitamin D & Parkinson's
Parkinson's patients in a study took either vitamin D or a placebo every day for one year. Researchers found that the disease did not progress as much in those who took the supplements compared to those who took the placebo. However, the benefit was only seen in those with a specific type of vitamin D receptor gene. Experts say findings are promising, but it is too soon to recommend supplementation for all Parkinson's patients; more study is needed. Previous studies have linked low blood levels of vitamin D with increased risk of developing Parkinson's disease.

CHICAGO—At the meeting of the National Advisory Committee on Farm Labor in Washington, D.C., last week I was particularly interested by the fact that this type of hearing permitted differences of opinion to be heard in an objective atmosphere.
And in the evening Secretary of Labor James P. Mitchell's speech was significant because he came out for a minimum wage for all farm labor, including migrant labor.
I think I am convinced that the trend is going to be toward either more commercial farms on a large scale or cooperative farms, where a number of farmers join together and run their farms as a cooperative business. The small, one-family, single farm unit, which we have always thought so important in this country, seems from the economic standpoint, judging by the testimony given, not to be very practical.
It is true that there are a great many people who have small farms, but they gain much of their income from work not done on the farm. This was the idea that underlay the subsistence homestead, which was one of the projects established during the depression. If the work that provided most of the livelihood for the family disappeared, they still had a farm land holding and were growing a good part of their own food. Thus, they would at least have enough to eat and during any unemployment period they could make their land holding more productive. Since foodstuffs are one of the essentials, even in times of depression, they could perhaps through barter or sale obtain some of the other necessities of their lives.
As a matter of fact, however, I did not think that it was conclusively established that farm labor should not also form unions. The one objection made was that a union would find it very difficult to serve the interests of a population that moves around as much as farm labor does. This, however, does not seem to be an insurmountable objection, because unions can certainly have representatives that move into areas where there are great movements of farm labor.
I am afraid, though, that I did become convinced that the small family farm is on its way out, and that a great many people felt that if you could not earn a decent living you were not compensated by a way of life that was only preferable if it gave you freedom which you could enjoy.
We also heard some of the same old arguments advanced about standards for the employers of migrant labor being set too high as far as housing, sanitation, etc., went. But these arguments reminded me of the early arguments made against slum clearance, and I think the facts in the history of the labor movement show that when people earn enough to live decently they soon learn the advantages of cleanliness and comfort.
I certainly felt that this committee's meeting served a very good purpose, and I hope that the large attendance meant that information on this subject would be carried back into communities all over the country.

|The downgraded version of the console has one redeeming feature...but it's still not worth buying.
The Wii Mini is widely considered to be one of the worst console redesigns in gaming history. It's not backwards compatible with GameCube games and peripherals; it can't access the Internet, making it impossible to download Virtual Console games or WiiWare titles; it only has AV output...the system's inferior in every way to the original model of the Wii.
Well, almost every way. The Wii Mini features a top-loading disc drive, something no other console has boasted since Nintendo's own GameCube. While it's not as high tech, there are a lot of benefits to this type of drive. Sony's recent redesign of their current-gen console, the PS3 Super Slim, also features a top-loading drive, and it's definitely a change for the better.
The Wii U, on the other hand, features a slot-loading drive like the original Wii and older PS3 models. As you will see, the method used by the Wii Mini and PS3 Super Slim for loading discs is superior to those used by every other current and next-gen console for a number of reasons.
Less moving parts = less chance of breakdown
|The PS3 Super Slim has the right idea. (Image credit: Engadget)
Slot-loading and tray-loading drives feature more moving parts than top-loading drives, and the more moving parts a machine has, the greater the odds are that something will break. Do an internet search for "broken Xbox 360 tray," or "broken PS3 disc drive," or "broken Wii disc drive" and thousands upon thousands of results come up. It's also quite common for discs to get stuck in them, which can be very frustrating to deal with. These types of drives are good for repair stores, bad for gamers.
With a top-loading drive, the user loads the games themselves. It's very low-tech but it works, and it's far more reliable. Less moving parts means there's a lower chance that something will go wrong.
Easy to get dust out
If you have an Xbox 360, PS3 or Wii with a dirty lens, you can try to clean it yourself using a cleaning kit, but they're kind of a difficult to use since you can't see the lens you're trying to clean. And on top of that, they really don't work all that well. If you check out some Wii cleaning kit reviews on sites like Amazon you'll see that the reviews are very mixed. The bottom line is, if you really want a clean lens for any of these consoles, you or someone else will need to open up the casing to get at it (preferably a professional). All of the next-gen consoles use slot-loading drives, which means this will continue to be problem.
They don't automatically load objects that get too close
Cheaper to manufacture
Many sites have stated that Nintendo went with a top-loading drive for the Wii Mini as a cost saving measure. Likewise, others say that Sony did the same with the PS3 Super Slim for the same reason. This is definitely better for the manufacturer, but theoretically it should mean a lower retail price which would benefit the consumer as well. Then again, the primary goal of corporations is to make money, which means they might not try to pass the savings onto the public. Still, it's something to think about.
Conclusion: Top-loading drives are not high tech, but they're more reliable.
While it wouldn't make sense to give all devices a top-loading drive, it does make sense to use them in video game consoles. If I saw two different models of the same console that had identical features and one had a top-loading drive while the other didn't, I'd go with the top-loader for all of the reasons stated above.
Still, don't buy the Wii Mini
|Do not buy this console.

Radiation Science & Technology
Head of the department: prof. dr. H. Th. Wolterbeek
Radiation ties the Radiation Science and Technology department together. The focus of our research is on energy and health. However various our interests, whether they be materials, sensors and instrumentation, energy and sustainable production or health, all our research is somehow related to radiation. The close collaboration with the Reactor Institute Delft guarantees access to the reactor and the irradiation facilities.
We have wonderful plans for the future, with more and even better facilities, under the acronym OYSTER. In order to keep up with European and global developments, the Netherlands needs a strong knowledge centre with its own small, but significant, radiation source and associated instrumentation. Therefore we present our ambition for the future OYSTER: Optimised Yield - for Science, Technology and Education - of Radiation.
The department consists of five research groups:
Nuclear Energy and Radiation Applications designs and analyses new nuclear reactor systems to improve the sustainability of nuclear power.
Fundamental Aspects of Materials and Energy investigates functional and structural materials with a view toward practical applications. The main focus is on the relation between structure, dynamics and function on atomic and nano scales.
Neutron and Positron Methods in Materials develops instruments and methods for optimal use of neutrons and positrons, mostly for use with the large, international facilities.
Radiation and Isotopes for Health innovates and optimises the use of radiation and radioisotopes in the health sciences. The research focuses on innovative production pathways and applications of radioisotopes, but also on radioactive compounds, radiation burden and image quality in diagnostics and therapy.
Radiation Detection & Medical imaging directs its research and education into the detection and use of radiation (including light quanta, X-rays and gamma radiation, neutrons, electrons and positrons, protons, and light ions) and into luminescence materials (gamma ray scintillators, neutron scintillators, storage phosphors, luminescence phosphors).

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. -- The Marist men's basketball team suffered an 81-62 loss to Saint Joseph's of the Atlantic 10 Conference on Wednesday night.
Junior swingman Chavaughn Lewis (Queens, N.Y.) led all scorers with 26 points. Lewis added a team-high five rebounds, tied for the team high with three assists, and added a blocked shot. He shot 9-for-20 from the field, and 6-for-7 from the free-throw line in a game-high 36 minutes of action.
Senior forward Jay Bowie (Tampa, Fla.) added 11 points, three rebounds and three assists on 4-for-5 shooting from the field. Senior center Adam Kemp (Sherrill, N.Y.) returned to the Marist lineup after a one-game absence due to injury to post six points and four rebounds in 19 minutes. Kemp shot 3-for-3 from the field. Red-shirt freshman guard Khallid Hart (Newark, Del.) contributed seven points, four rebounds, two assists and two steals.
Langston Galloway led Saint Joseph's (2-0) with 20 points. Galloway shot 6-for-8 from the field. Ronald Roberts (16 points, 10 rebounds) and Halil Kanacevic (12 points, 11 rebounds, eight assists, three blocks) both had double-doubles for the Hawks.
Saint Joseph's held a 47-26 edge in rebounds, shot .492 (30-for-61) from the field, and .438 (7-for-16) from three-point range. The Hawks shot 50 percent from the field in the second half, and connected on six of 10 three-point attempts. Marist shot .393 (22-for-56) from the field and .240 (6-for-25) from three-point range, although the Red Foxes hit six of 14 attempts from deep in the second half. The Red Foxes committed just nine turnovers in the game, while the Hawks had 12.
Marist never led in the game, as Saint Joseph's jumped out to a 12-0 lead in the first three-and-a-half minutes in the game. The Red Foxes cut the deficit to as little as five on three separate occasions in the first half, but drew no closer. The Hawks extended their lead to 40-25 at halftime, and led by as much as 24 in the second half. Saint Joseph's held a 41-37 lead over Marist in scoring in the second half, which featured hot shooting from both sides.
Marist (0-3) will return to action on Saturday at Providence. Tip-off is set for 4 p.m., and the game is scheduled to be televised by Fox Sports 2.

When is a draw a defeat? That's a conundrum for Juergen Klopp, who saw his Borussia Dortmund team draw 4-4 with Stuttgart in the Bundesliga match of the season on Friday.
The end-to-end thriller was significant not only for the staggering incompetence of the champions' defence but the fact that it allowed Bayern Munich to cut the lead at the top to just three points.
Another Dortmund win seemed inevitable when they led 2-0 late in the game. Then, 20 minutes of sheer folly:
71st min: Mats Hummels is left on his backside by a touch from beanpole defender Georg Niedermeier and Vedad Ibisevic strokes in. 2-1.
77th min: Hummels and Neven Subotic jump for the same header, allowing Julian Schieber to skip round a static Lukasz Piszczek, beat Hummels for a second time and poke in a remarkable solo effort. 2-2.
79th min: Schieber is too quick for the lunging dive of Subotic and scores from distance. 2-3.
81st min: Hummels shows why he was a centre forward in his youth by scoring from the edge of the box. 3-3. (Klopp says that at this stage the draw ''felt like a victory'').
87th min: Ivan Perisic slams in from a corner. 4-3. "I was depressed for five seconds, and then I started believing we could make it 4-4," said Stuttgart coach Bruno Labbadia.
90th min: Labbadia's belief is proved justified. Subotic misjudges a hopeful cross, confusing the hapless Marcel Schmelzer who plays the ball to Stuttgart's Christian Gentner. 4-4.
An unforgettable night for neutrals but Klopp ("that's football, that's life, that's totally mad") would have perhaps preferred a drab 0-0 to the enduring the sight of seven Dortmund players lying on their backs in disbelief as Gentner equalised.
As Arsenal found out last season, a 4-4 draw can have a destabilising effect on a title challenge and the question now is how Dortmund will respond at improving Wolfsburg on Saturday.
Suddenly, assumptions are being questioned, notably about Dortmund's defence.
Last season they conceded a stingy 22 goals in 34 games. Until April, the Fab Four of Piszczek, Schmelzer, Subotic and Hummels looked like breaking the record for the best defence in Bundesliga history.
Only twice did they concede more than one goal in a match - once on the first day of the season and once after the title had been wrapped up.
This season Dortmund conceded 17 goals in their first 27 games, last shipping twice at Hannover on 18 September. Then, Stuttgart.
If Bayern coach Jupp Heynckes is right when he says defences win titles, then prior to Friday Bayern should have given up the ghost. Suddenly that's all changed.
After Dortmund dropped two points, Bayern were crowing. Mario Gomez even sent a video message to his former teammates, featuring a group of Bayern players thanking Stuttgart for their comeback.
"It's in our hands now," pointed out Holger Badstuber after Bayern beat Nuremberg the next day to cut Dortmund's lead to three points.
The irony here is that Dortmund were the more impressive of the two title contenders at the weekend.
Bayern were awful in the Bavarian derby. Outfought by Nuremberg, they won the match thanks to a late piece of magic from Arjen Robben and a huge slice of luck when Manuel Neuer spilled a 35 meter shot from Almog Cohen onto his crossbar.
The message from Dortmund: don't panic.
"I've been more nervous than I am now,'' insisted former Bayern man Hummels. ''Our situation is - as it was before - optimal. We're leaders with a three-point cushion. There are worse positions to be in with six games to go in the season."
Though it felt like it, Dortmund didn't actually lose to Stuttgart and actually extended their record unbeaten run to 22 matches.
"Whoever says we're nervous is completely wrong. Now there's fighting talk coming out of Munich. We'll do well not to get caught up in that," Sebastian Kehl insisted.
Apart from having his worst game of the season, Hummels last week saw his father Herman dismissed as youth coordinator at Bayern (he'll be replaced by Franz Beckenbauer's son, Stefan).
Perhaps that's why he rose to the bait when Bayern president Uli Hoeness said the 11 April match between Dortmund and Munich will be the ''moment of truth.''
"The war-of-words is at a similar level to the battle for the title. It shows we have gained respect and how we are perceived by Bayern,'' Hummels said.
Just weeks ago the title seemed out of reach for Bayern. In the last ten seasons, only Stuttgart have come from seven points behind with ten games left to claim the title. Their amazing comeback at Dortmund might yet mean Bayern match that impressive achievement.

Hebrew National Accused of Being Unkosher
A lawsuit filed against Hebrew National alleged that its hot dogs and other products are not actually kosher.
The class-action suit, filed in May in a federal court in Minnesota, accuses ConAgra Foods — the business designation of Hebrew National that is certified kosher by Triangle K — of several transactions that would render the meat being processed as not kosher.
The suit also accuses the company of mistreating its employees, especially its kosher supervisors and slaughterers. The firm AER provides the kosher slaughtering services at Hebrew National facilities in the Midwest.
Employees who complained about the inappropriate actions were fired or transferred, the suit claims.
Among the complaints is that non-kosher meat was packaged and labeled as kosher meat. The complaints also said that the lungs were not inspected well enough for imperfections and that some cows were slaughtered incorrectly.
The suit also alleges that the employees were paid in violation of American tax laws.
Shlomoh Ben-David, the owner of AER Services Inc., denied the charges in an interview with The Failed Messiah website.

Large Private Equity firms have been outperformed by their smaller competitors in the recent past, as revealed by the Wall Street Journal, in a report that features a public employee pension fund complaining over returns from investments made with the big players.
According to a report by the Pension Consulting Alliance, which is set to be presented today to the California State Teachers' Retirement System, or Calstrs, the returns from the large buy-out funds are lagging behind their smaller competitors, with less than $300 million of Assets Under Management (AUM).
We recently reported that The Blackstone Group L.P (NYSE:BX)'s CEO claims that it would be difficult for pension funds to get any meaningful returns if they only focused on investing in hedge funds.
We criticized his opinion, as he was advising on investment through other alternative vehicles. He believes that the firms can get higher returns from private equity firms. Nonetheless, the latest statistics bring a twist of events, as it has been revealed the problem is with the large buyout funds.
A good example of this can be seen in our previous report on Carlyle Group LP (NASDAQ:CG), which indeed is one of the largest private equity firms. Carlyle Group LP (NASDAQ:CG) has more than $156 billion (AUM), and reported a loss, for its Q2 results.
On the other hand, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. (NYSE:KKR)'s profits increased to $546.1 million from the $315 million during the same period last year. Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. (NYSE:KKR) has $7.8 billion (AUM), would be categorised under the large PE firms, going by the report published on Wall Street Journal that classifys funds with more than $3.5 billion AUM as large PE firms. However, it is far smaller than Carlyle Group LP (NASDAQ:CG).
Another large private equity firm is Apollo Global Management (NYSE:APO), which manages approximately $105 billion AUM, as of June 30th 2012. Its economic net income for Q2 stood at $42 million, after declining from $125 million for the same period in 2011.
According to research, the lackluster performance recorded by large equity firms as compared to their smaller competitors is nothing new, or something to be surprised of; this is rather an obvious scenario as the smaller firms can invest in more securities compared to big funds, which can diversify their investments more. Consequently, smaller funds would provide a high risk to investments, as compared to the larger funds.
The WSJ states, "funds launched in 2006 that manage $3.5 billion or more are up 4.1%, compared with gains of 14.1% for funds managing less than $300 million, and a 9.7% gain for those managing $1 billion to $3.5 billion, according to consulting firm Cambridge Associates."
Another pension fund that finds itself in tango with the large fund drawbacks, is State of Wisconsin Investment Board. The board had invested in KKR, CG, and BX, and is now pulling off some of its investments in the companies; about $1 billion of commitments to KKR, Carlyle Group LP (NASDAQ:CG), The Blackstone Group L.P. (NYSE:BX), and other large firms, noted the report.
Calstrs on the other hand, revealed that the pension's largest buyout investments are with The Blackstone Group L.P. (NYSE:BX) and TPG Capital, totaling $2.8 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively. Another teacher pension scheme involved in the outcry was The Teachers Retirement System of Texas, which also revealed that it had committed about $3 billion each to KKR and Apollo Global Management (NYSE:APO) last November.

New flight service between Idaho Falls and Treasure Valley in the works
IDAHO FALLS, Idaho - Grow Idaho Falls Inc. is looking to establish air service from Idaho Falls to the Nampa/Boise area with the help of AvCenter.
AvCenter already provides charter service to groups looking to go to the Treasure Valley, but this service would potentially expand that service to single-seat sales for individuals. The two held a meeting open to the public at Aero Mark in Idaho Falls Monday night to discuss the needs of potential customers.
Linda Martin, CEO of Grow Idaho Falls, said they are working to make the trip easier than driving.
"It becomes difficult, because it takes four or five hours to get over there and four to five hours back," said Martin. "That's a lot of productive time."
Grow Idaho Falls and AvCenter were seeking input Monday night to determine specifics for the service.
"We are looking for information from the public, so they can help determine the days of the week, the times of day, how many times a day, etc.," said Martin.
Martin said she hopes the service is ready in a few months.
