My process seems stuck at init wbfs during the usb loader startup I got a 0 beside reloading ios 249. Anyone be of any help before my kids destroy the games
pretty new to this but i've done a lot of reading, however i'm still having trouble.
I have everything setup exactly as the first post.
Using an external lacie 500 gb HDD that i checked on the compatible list.
Dskchk and repaired errors. (this was a used HDD)
Removed partition / volume without formating.
and then formated using WBFS manager.
When I boot up usb loader or wiiflow it takes a bit for it to load and then tells me that I need to plug the USB in port 0 (the furthest port out) which is what I did. So far everything I've tried hasn't worked. I've double checked the USB plug making sure its securely fastened. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Anyone have any ideas or fixes?
My process seems stuck at init wbfs during the usb loader startup I got a 0 beside reloading ios 249. Anyone be of any help before my kids destroy the games
Just like Dannyaml, Im new to this and want to be100% sure im doing this right. In your turorial on the WBFS formatting drive the image you show is to Format the drive then load the iso file...
My question is i on ly have to Format the drive ONE TIME ONLY correct.
My Wii was doing the exact same thing, where it would say that I was not using the correct USB port. However, i WAS able to have USB loader work for me once before, but now its not working and giving me that same message (I've also tried switching the USB port from the bottom to the top on the wii, as well as chosen a different cios going from 249 to 222 ). I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong being that I havent changed any configs to the SD card nor to the HDD. Any suggestions...
So at formatting your HDD, step 3, when I right click my drive there is no option to delete either the entire volume or a partition. There is an option to delete partition but it is grayed out and I cant click it. The only other choices are format, change drive letter and paths, properties, help, open, and explore. I have xp. what option should I choose or how do I make the delete parition option selectable? I've been trying to get this working for weeks but due to my inaptitude have not succeeded.
Oh, and just making sure im at the right guide, I'm only using an 8 gb jumpdrive, and am at wii 4.2

A child up past his bedtime sat and stared,
a penny now for what he's thinking,
in the garden snow was scarce,
he saw the sculpture slowly shrinking.
He hadn't paid attention
when in those mid-winter thaws
the sculpture upped and disappeared,
'cos there was Santa Claus!
the Tooth Fairy! the Easter Bunny!
all are real to him right now,
sparking his imagination,
causing him to giggle
for those presents, candies, shiny quarters
made his young heart sing with joy!
Much later, as a loving father,
he'll relive these wondrous dreams,
and enjoy them with his kids,
these wondrous dreams
now well remembered,
of the days when he was just a boy.

CHESTERFIELD COUNTY, Va. (WTVR) – It's a mystery that has bothered some people in Chesterfield, Dinwiddie and the Tri-Cities for months. What is causing those very loud booms that sometimes shake homes and rattle nerves?
Over the months, theories arose such as mini-earthquakes, ice booms, someone even suggested a garbage truck flap banging against the back of the truck.
Now it appears the boom mystery has been solved. Watch this video.
Minutes after this video was shot Saturday afternoon, social media lit up with reaction and questions.
"Anyone [know] what the big bombs are around Colonial Heights and Chesterfield County lines," Hazel Halliday posted from Chester. "I heard [one] about an hour ago my house shook and my Windows rattled."
CBS 6 senior reporter Wayne Covil has been tracking the source of the boom for weeks. Last week the man who claimed to be behind the booms came forward and provided video.
Justin Watkins, 28, said he is the man in this most recent video taken Saturday about 4:15 p.m. He said the booms are the result of target practice.
Watkins said he is using a high-power rifle to shoot tannerite, an exploding target.
"We do it for fun and target practice not for attention that just comes along with it," Watkins wrote in an online chat with CBS 6 about the booms. "We have caused many, many [booms] and yes, [there are] plenty more are to come."
Watkins said he shoots the targets in Chesterfield and Dinwiddie. He said he is usually positioned 150 – 200 yards from the target during practice.
He said he sometimes shoots one or two pound targets. It's the larger targets (the one in the video is 20 pounds) that cause the big booms.
"Yes people get upset, but they live a different lifestyle. We live to hunt and fish and we love our guns," he said.
CBS 6 senior reporter Wayne Covil is continuing to work this story and determine whether or not what's causing the booms is legal. Click here to email the CBS 6 Newsroom if you've been impacted by the booms.

The sky can be the crowning glory of a landscape painting, with a well-done version enhancing the harmony of the overall piece and a less accurately rendered version detracting from the focus of the elements beneath. Within that sky, there is the possibility for any arrangement of cloud shapes and styles, from high and billowy to low and wispy, and knowing and understanding cloud formations before painting them on-site can help in depicting them more accurately. Although there are patterns of clouds that do not necessarily fit into a particular category, following are the seven most commonly encountered cloud formations in nature.
CUMULUS:These are probably the most commonly seen clouds, and they are usually present on fair, clear, sunny days. They resemble huge masses of puffy wool and float through the sky at various heights, with the side of the cloud that is facing the sun usually being very bright and the side that is farther from the sun usually appearing dark with bright edges. The undersides of these clouds are usually flat, while the puffy parts appear mainly on the top and sides of the formation.
CIRRUS:Wispy and high in the sky, these clouds are actually made up of ice crystals formed from the freezing of supercooled water droplets and are usually present on a clear day. Cirrus clouds are sometimes referred to as "feather" clouds or "mare's-tails" and point in the direction of air movement at their elevation, which is usually about five to six miles high.
NIMBUS:Nimbus clouds are precipitation clouds that are thick in texture and dark in color while being almost umbrellalike in shape. Their darkness reflects the amount of water they are carrying, and that precipitation may reach the earth as either rain, snow, or hail. Small, ragged pieces of these clouds floating at a lower level are often referred to as "scud."
CUMULONIMBUS: Cumulonimbus clouds are also known as thunder or shower clouds and usually appear on warm, summer afternoons prior to a storm. These clouds can look like cumulus clouds for their rounded, puffy shape but have an almost cirruslike appearance at the top and more of a nimbus-cloud look at the bottom. Cumulonimbus clouds can float very low to the landscape and often build up high.
Nice summery of the different types of clouds.
By the way, cirrus clouds are often forerunners of rain. cumulonimbus clouds usually contain updrafts and downdrafts within them and lightening to add to the mix. They reach high into the atomsphere. I also think that these are the type of cloud that spawns tornados. On the good side, the lightning frees nitrogen which falls to earth to enrich the soil and fertilize the plant life.
Thanks for your useful comments, Phil!

Great blog post! I love cloud watching and am always drawn to look at the clouds and the sky in a painting first. Thanks for this post.
Clouds are not all created equal, just like not every sunset or
skyscape is the same. They all have their own unique look and feel,
even though we can see them all the time. And it is the plein air

Courtney added "and how to paint them. Great tips!" But I don't see that part. Am I missing something? Thx.

To appreciate Byron's Amitin Notebook Project, one has to understand something about Amitin's. It is merely the latest incarnation of the Amitin bookstore line, which can be traced back to the patriarch, A. Amitin, who brought his business to St. Louis from Detroit in the 1920s. He opened a shop on Pine Street downtown. Larry Amitin eventually took over the business and in 1989 moved the store into its current location at 1207 Washington Ave., in the crumbling ruins of the city's former garment district.
Amitin's Bookstore inhabits an old garment-outlet store, dated around the turn of the century. The store's neighbors on Washington include a cafeteria (closed), a shoe-repair shop and a Bee Hat Co. outlet (both still open). If you squint real hard and block out the infiltration of doomed dance clubs along the avenue, you can almost imagine yourself back in the days when men wore hats and ties, people ate at automats and downtown St. Louis had a pulse.
That history and others live again within Amitin's walls. Nothing has been done to its century-old interior, save for the installation of impossibly high bookshelves and countless books. Larry Amitin trades in his share of first editions, but that's not what the store is about; it's better described as a clearinghouse for the obsolete, the kind of place where Julius Knipl, Real Estate Photographer would shop were he alive and well and living in St. Louis. Among the expected novels, poetry, art and history books, Amitin's also offers printed ephemera that has simply fallen out of time: typewriter manuals, obscure (but not rare) phonographic records, '40s-era home-decorating guides, S&H Greenstamp wish books, paperback biographies of forgotten teen idols -- with the grocery-story price labels still firmly affixed.
Notebooks can be found in the mix as well, some heavily used, others hardly touched. One of these gently worn notebooks became the starting point for Byron's Amitin Notebook Project. He purchased it at the store in 1999, removed the binding and started to work on the book's hundreds of yellowing pages.
Byron took the notebook's pages, some of which contained scrawled notes and addresses, and added his own doodles, dates and pictures. He ran some of the pages through a printer, and the resulting digital images clash sharply with the yellowing paper. He painted, scrawled, printed or glued additional information on other pages, leaving some chock-full, others nearly bare. The 55 drawings on display in this exhibition comprise nothing less than an extended palimpsest of history.
If anyone was up to this sticky task it was certainly Byron, a professor at Washington University whose increasingly conceptual oeuvre is driven by a formidable intellect and a calculating eye. The Amitin Notebook Project is softer around the edges than some of Byron's previous works; nostalgia and vulnerability come very much into play here, but he doesn't make you feel guilty for enjoying those feelings.
Certain themes reveal themselves, most especially one of vision. Little eyes, drawn, painted or glued to the paper, pop up everywhere, demanding to be looked at and calling attention to the re-vision techniques Byron has employed on each page.
The inevitability of time's passage emerges as another theme. Everywhere Byron has inserted dates cut from old newspapers or scribbled obsessively by hand. We're left to guess their significance, if they have any; they seem somehow more powerful for being mute. Here and there, collaged images from old textbooks or advertisements remind us of bygone modes of dress, transportation and communication. These pieces carry the dusty nostalgia that Kit Keith specializes in, though Byron's Notebook Project is at once more systematic and more stream-of-consciousness than Keith's collages and assemblages.
Finally, there's an overriding sense of futility in many of these drawings that might itself be the project's signature theme. One sad-sack male figure pops up now and again, a kind of symbol of human mortality. On another page is an illustration of one of the ugliest objects in America, a pathetic-looking pink sculpture, on the verge of complete collapse. Several of the pages contain scientific-looking diagrams that yield no useful information, such as the one labeled a pile of 31 rocks on a stage made out of 427 squares with seven primary squares gilt in gold or silver.
Along with futility, a kind of obsessive, quasi-scientific spirit pervades the entire Amitin Notebook Project, which actually consists of 239 drawings, separated into four categories: "Master Suite" (the 55 drawings on view at the Forum); "Offspring and Outtakes" (not on view); and "Destroyed" (less successful drawings that were burned; their ashes are contained in an urn placed near the "Master Suite" drawings). Its as if a crazed anthropologist had set out to chart every cultural ramification ever caused or contained by the bookstore. It's a beautiful, inevitable failure, like the store itself.

Morton Kondrake, on the Obama's Friday presser:
Well, look, if you start bailing out the auto companies, who do you not bail out? As Charles [Krauthammer] says, the financial institutions are like a public utility. Now he said that under the industry is the bedrock of the American manufacturing. That may be true, but, nonetheless, there are a lot of other manufacturing companies that will be going under. And what about retail stores and the retail industry? They're going under, too. I don't see why you can't let General Motors go bankrupt. It's not going to cease to exist. There will still be a General Motors. It would be reorganized. There would be better management, presumably. They could get rid of some of their debt, maybe loosen up on their labor contracts, and so on.
His comments are on the mark. What purpose is served by giving taxpayer money to auto companies? This would send an unmistakable signal to all of failing corporate America that anyone can line up for handouts at the new White House. No mistake is too great, no mismanagement is too severe, no ridiculous labor arrangement is too unrealistic to prevent gorging at the public trough.
Surely some coalition of fiscal conservatives, Blue Dog Democrats, liberal Democrats (don't they hate corporate welfare?), and environmentalists (why are we spending taxpayer money on cars instead of new energy technology?) could be formed on this issue. It could prevent an arrangement by which the taxpayers subsidize horrid management. That would certainly be reaching across the aisle for the public good.

Zombie Electronics By The Numbers
We are so not joking around about the threat of zombies! A Zombie Apocalypse can totally happen!
Unlike many of the zombies you will see next Monday while trick or treating, zombie electronics will not disappear after Halloween. That's a scarier thought than any scary movie we've seen! We want to make the threat of zombie electronics VERY obvious. Without further ado…
Zombie Electronics by the numbers:
- 27 – the amount of watts of energy a typical gaming console eats up when it's in use (So hungry!)
- 23 – the amount of watts that same gaming console feasts on when it's in standby mode (That's hardly standing by, we'd say!)
- 24 – the amount of dollars that same gaming console in standby mode wastes in a year. (We can think of a lot of things we'd rather put that money toward…)
- 75 – the percentage of electricity consumed to power zombie electronics and zombie appliances that are turned off (These zombies are STRONG!)
- 20 – the percentage of the total energy bill appliances and home electronics are responsible for in the average U.S. home. (And 75 percent of that was when the electronic was turned off!)
- 10-50 – the amount of zombie electronics a typical homes has lurking inside (Zombie electronics like to travel in herds.)
We know these numbers seem daunting but you are not helpless. You can fight back against this zombie uprising and you can triumph. We've been giving you tips and tactics for the last few weeks and here are a few more still.
- Look for the Energy Star logo when shopping for new appliances.
- Use a power strip as a central "turn off" point. It will completely disconnect the power supply and terminate the zombie infiltration.
- Unplug all major appliances when heading out on vacation. Even when devices such as the microwave, stove and washing machine aren't in use, their LED panels continue to devour energy.
- Manually turn off computer monitors. It saves more electricity than a screen saver.
- Rather than leaving a light on to deter burglars, install a timer. This way your lights are on for only a short period rather than all day.
So, what are you waiting for?! Get out there, get rid of those zombies, cut your energy consumption and save your budget!

On April 22, 2013, the NC Senate passed SB 325 with a 33-17 vote along party lines. The bill now moves to the House for consideration.
The bill calls for the following:
- Seven board members elected by district; two members elected at-large. All will ultimately serve four-year terms, beginning in July (formerly December).
- All nine seats will be up for election in 2016
- Candidates who win seats up for election this year (Districts 1, 2, 7, 9) will serve only a two and one-half-year term.
- The terms of board members elected in 2011 (Districts 3, 4, 5, 6, 8) will be extended by seven months.
- At-large seats will be up for election in 2016, then up again in 2018 for a full four-year term.
Senators Josh Stein and Dan Blue both spoke passionately against the passage of this bill. Senator Blue summed it up this way:
"It offends me to the quick. It makes me want to yell."

Your talking points:
- This bill was neither requested by citizens nor the Wake County School Board. What happened to reducing "big government?" Passing this bill opens up the floodgates for similar legislation across the state.
- Districts were just redrawn after the 2010 Census. Redrawing them so soon after is costly. Taxpayers will have to foot the bill for for new Wake County voter cards (upwards of $200,000) and for costly litigation that is likely to occur.
- The bill does not increase representation for voters, with its two proposed at-large districts. In fact, the chance that children won't attend a school in the district where their family lives increases.
- Redrawing lines that racially polarize the community does harm to our county. One of the at-large districts proposed creates a minority district.
- Why not support a statewide proposal such as House Bill 606, Nonpartisan Redistricting Process, which offers a logical, cost effective approach to redistricting?

Either use configurable usb-loader (or try figuring out which of the many wiiflow mods works best, the original wiiflow definitely does not support this game as it was discontinued long before the game came out) or if you hex edit the main.dol of the ISO it will work in all usb-loaders.
More info in my original posting here:
the cIOS you recommend installing has nothing to do with getting this game to work or not (afaik)... if u want to fix the game by just changing a cIOS, you can use hermes 222v5.1, since he changed the names of some of the keywords PoP searches for to determine if the game is running off a cIOS (and since cIOS keywords are not found, the game thinks its legit and doesn't crash)
to get it working via a usb-loader, u can do many things, but what u are suggesting isn't one of them. You can...
-use an alt-dol, where the main.dol has been hex edited
-use a *.wip patch, although I don't think one was successfully made for this game... not sure, I know people were working on it
-use a usb-loader that has the patch built in, like configurable usb-loader. If wiiflow also has this patch built in, please tell the OP what exact version you are using, because as I've mentioned earlier, wiiflow hasn't been officially supported by its original creator for a looooooong time. And I've heard from many respected people that ever since the last official release by the original developer, all the releases thereafter have been buggy... I'm sure there have must have been a few good revs/mods of wiiflow since then, but just tell the OP which one you recommend since the latest version isn't necessarily the best when it comes to wiiflow or usbloader gx (fyi, historically the most recent release of configurable usbloader has always been the most stable).
-hex edit the main.dol of the ISO according to the WiiCrazy's instructions that I linked to earlier. This is probably the best solution because then the game will work with all loaders, and it only takes 2 minutes to do.
Also, if you are going to recommend cIOS rev20, I think it would be better to recommend using base 56 instead of base 57.
-base 57 = faster usb-loading
-base 37 = good for games using peripherals, like guitar hero games
-base 56 = combined the pro's of base 57 and 36
So instead of recommending cios rev 17 in slot 249 and rev 20(57) in 250, I think you should be recommending cios rev 17b in slot 249 and rev 20(56) in 250.
Just my 2 cents... I'm glad to see u helping people out, keep it up
Rev 17b? Didnt know that existed
Well I didnt have to use a patches for this game mentioned and it was also using the older version of wiiflow. But what I have suggested will not harm the op... rev 20 was brought out and some bugs were fixed so I cant see the harm of having rev 20 base 57 and rev 17 base 38 or even as mauifrog has in his mod any wii guide - slot 247 upto 250 (249 rev17) all others rev 20 with different bases..... The thing is the rev I installed I think was R25 but cant be sure....
Sorry man this is going a bit off topic
Version 4.3.0 released

counterparts from the advanced download page and changing their slots to 202.
* Other minor Changes.
CHANGELOG v4.3.1
•Fixed bug in HackMii Solutions feature where the Hackmii Installer's boot.elf

ModMii for Windows
Version 4.3.3 Released!
by XFlak
Download ModMii for Windows v4.3.3 Here
Download the French version of ModMii for Windows v4.3.3 Here
4.3.3 Changelog
- Fixed bug in SNEEK Game Bulk Extractor causing ModMii to crash when the
target directory had a space in it.
- Fixed bug introduced in v4.3.2 where the Download Wizard did not download
a handful of files if the user specified their Wii is NOT a virgin.
- Drive-letter/Folder settings now accept inputs with or without quotes.
Previously ModMii would crash if the user inputted setting with quotes.
It also performs a check to make sure the Drive-letter exists.
- The ModMii Wizard will now ask users currently on 4.3 if they would like
to download active IOSs. Most 4.3 Wii's should not need to update its IOSs
as they should already be up to date. However, if a 4.3 Wii has DarkCorp
installed or has problems playing original games via the Wii System Menu,
it will now be able to update its active IOSs using the ModMii Wizard.
- ModMii is now also available in French. The French version will receive
its own unique French updates. French updates will probably lag slightly
behind English updates. Thanks to xav91 and ketufe for doing the majority
of ModMii's French translation.
- Removed Unrar.exe from ModMii as it has not been used since v4.2.8.
On a personal note, I will be away from gbatemp this weekend as DeadlyFoez and I have finally arranged to meet face-to-face. It's going to be an awesome weekend full of partying, so if you are in New Hampshire keep your eyes peeled for us in your local bars,
we're planning on wearing "Hello, my name is XFlak" and "Hello, my name is DeadlyFoez" name tags. LOL
I will respond to any unanswered ModMii questions asked over the weekend as soon as I can, but while I'm gone there are plenty of other people qualified to answer your ModMii questions so feel free to ask them even during my absence.

Black Moses is the fifth studio album by Isaac Hayes. It is a double album released on Stax Records' Enterprise label in 1971. The follow-up to Hayes' successful soundtrack for Shaft (also a double album), Black Moses features Hayes' version of The Jackson 5's hit single "Never Can Say Goodbye". Hayes' version became a hit in its own right, peaking at number 22 on the Billboard Hot 100.
In addition to "Never Can Say Goodbye", other selections on Black Moses include covers of songs made popular by The Carpenters ("(They Long to Be) Close to You", Toussaint McCall ("Nothing Takes the Place of You"), The Friends of Distinction ("Going in Circles"), Dionne Warwick ("I'll Never Fall in Love Again"), and Little Johnny Taylor ("Part Time Love"). Hayes names Black Moses as one of his most personal works.[9]
The very same sample of "Ike's Rap II" was used in four tracks at about the same time in the mid-1990s: Hell Is Around The Corner by Tricky, Glory Box by Portishead, Jorge da Capadócia and Salve both by Brazilian rap group Racionais MC's.
The album's title derives from Stax executive Dino Woodward's nickname for Hayes, which he bestowed upon the musician after comparing the effects of his music on black audiences to the leadership of the biblical figure Moses.[9] The then deeply Christian Hayes shied away from the nickname, finding it "sacrilegious", [ WE MUST KEEP ONE VERY IMPORTANT REALIZATION...ISAAC HAYES...IS NOTHING LIKE THE REAL MOSES...THE MOSES IN THE BIBLE WAS CALLED BY GOD FOR A WAY DIFFERENT REASON...AGAIN...ISAAC HAYES IS (NOTHING-LIKE-THE-MOSES) IN THE BIBLE. [10] although journalist Chester Higgins popularized the "Black Moses" nickname in an article he wrote on Hayes for Jet. Hayes came to see "Black Moses" as a symbol of black pride:
"Black men could finally stand up and be men because here's Black Moses; he's the epitome of black masculinity. Chains that once represented bondage and slavery now can be a sign of power and strength and sexuality and virility"[9]
Larry Shaw, head of marketing and publicity at Stax, came up with the idea to name Hayes' LP Black Moses.[9] He also devised, with the assistance of Bar-Kays member Ron Gordon, a gatefold album cover design which unfolded into a poster-sized image of Hayes, dressed in biblical-inspired attire as "Black Moses".[9]

- "(They Long to Be) Close to You" (Burt Bacharach, Hal David) - 8:58

Incorrect track order on CD versions[edit]
Black Moses was released on compact disc for the first time in 1989 by Fantasy Records, who owned the Stax catalog at the time. The CD was remastered by Kirk Felton. The track order on CD was incorrect, placing the songs from side 4 of the LP between those of sides 1 and 2. When Black Moses was originally pressed, sides 1 and 4 were printed on the first LP while sides 2 and 3 were on the second; this process was common on albums released between 1966 and 1974 because it made it easier to play the sides in the correct order on the automatic record-changers of the day (see Jimi Hendrix's Electric Ladyland as another example.)
Concord Music Group, which purchased the Stax masters through its merger with Fantasy in 2004, released a remastered CD version of Black Moses on February 24, 2009 in a digipak that simulates the original vinyl cover. Bob Fisher remastered the 2009 edition, but the track order is the same as the 1989 CD and not the original album.

An interesting little insight into how the ruling class works over here inside the European Union. A little group of politicians set up a scheme to "listen to the people of Europe". A scheme which they then shamelessly manipulate to get to the answer they'd already decided upon. This will now form the basis of the next round of legislation. For, as they've "listened to the people of Europe" then it must be something that everyone wants, right?
So, the site is here and this is what they say about it:
So far, regulators could only make use of product bans under very strict conditions. However, if the new EU directive on financial markets ("MiFID") will be decided on in 2013, ESMA probably will be able to ban dangerous products more easily. In this context we want to take note that dangerous products are not only the most risky ones. Risk is not per se a problem. Often only risky investment decisions can help young companies or new technologies to get started. But it is important that risks have to be transparent to the investor, are fairly compensated for and are not effectively shifted to third parties.
Therefore, we launched this competition to find the most harmful and dangerous financial product traded on the markets. (Submit your proposals here.) With your input and the help of an expert jury the most dangerous financial product shall be determined and brought to the awareness of the supervisory authorities. We then expect them to scrutinize the product and limit its application or ban it totally from the markets if necessary. We are happy to reveive any contribution from citizens, organisations, corporations, consumer protectors and financial markets experts.
I wouldn't go so far as to say that I'm a financial market expert although I do know more about those markets than many a financial journalist (and politician, of course). And I'm certainly a citizen so I qualify.
So I made my first nomination: the euro. Even just a brief look at what is has done to Greece (or Ireland, Portugal) should be enough to convince you that this is an extremely dangerous financial product and one that we should certainly consider for banning. This nomination was rejected on a technicality. The technicality being that they didn't want people being cute like that.
So then I nominated the financial transactions tax. Even the EU Commission's own report into it says that it will reduce EU GDP by 2-4%. Clearly something that should be banned then. Again, the technicality that this isn't what they meant people to nominate.
At this point of course the party is just beginning: one friend nominated the mortgage: the recent past in the US has shown how dangerous they can be. That technicality again, we weren't taking this seriously. Nominations should only be things they think should be banned, not what the citizenry think should be.
So far, so just absolutely darn normal for politics. But they really are going to use the end result of this sham, deceitful and manipulated process to suggest a product that should be banned by the European Parliament.
And that folks, is how politics really works over here in Europe. You can get away with dang near anything if you say that it's all about "Europe". And if you can pretend that it's been run by the citizenry first then it's a shoe in. No matter how badly you've subverted the process.
No wonder the continent is going bankrupt: with a political class like this how could it be otherwise?

Pro Tools 10 Essential Training with musician and producer David Franz illuminates the process of recording, editing, mixing, and mastering in Avid Pro Tools, the industry-standard software for music and postproduction. The course covers recording live audio and adding effects on the fly, creating music with virtual instruments and plug-ins, editing for time and pitch manipulation, creating a musical score, and mixing and mastering a track.
The Mix window mimics a mixing console displaying each track as a vertical channel. Although you can actually access almost every Mix window feature from the Edit window, I find working in the Mix window while mixing, and even recording, can be more intuitive, plus it's nice to see the tall faders here. Let's start on the left side with the tracks list. Just like in the Edit window, we can see all of the different tracks here and we've got the Tracks List pop-up, where we can hide all of the tracks, show all the tracks, or show only certain type of tracks.
Below the Tracks list is the Group's list where we can create groups, display groups, suspend groups and modify groups. Again we'll talk about groups in another video. Let's look at the track channels. Down here with this button, the Mix Window View Selector, we can choose all or minimal, or specific pieces of the mix channels that we want to see. Starting with minimal, we can look at just the I/O section which has the input and output for the track, the automation, the group status, the panning, record, solo and mute buttons, the track faders and meters, and we've also got the Patch Select button, the track type.
These icons show the different types of tracks, so that's an audio track, this is an instrument track, got the name of the track, and the track color. If you go back down to this button and show all, you'll see a very tall mixing channel, but the mic preamp section up here, the instrument section, the inserts and you'll see that we have 10 inserts, 5 at the top, A-E, and then F-J, and that's where we can put virtual instruments and plug-ins.
We have 10 sends as well, A-E and F-J, and as I scroll down here you remember the I/O section, and below the name of the track, we have the delay compensation section and the comments section. If you go up to the View menu, and choose Mix Window Views, we can select particular things that we want to see and that acts the same way as this button down here, the Mix Window View selector.
Also from the View menu, we can choose to see the Narrow Mix, which makes all of the tracks much more narrow and this works out really well, if you have a very large session with a ton of tracks. That way you can see a lot more tracks in your Mix window. We'll go back to the regular mix, and I want to show you one more sneaky little option here. If you want to see fatter meters, you can press Ctrl+Option+Command on a Mac, or Alt+Start+Ctrl on a PC and click the meter to make them fatter, check it out.
The vertical channel layout of the mix window makes it fairly intuitive to use once you know what all the buttons, knobs and menus do. I'll get into the specifics of all the features in this window and many of the other videos in this course.
There are currently no FAQs about Pro Tools 10 Essential Training.
Access exercise files from a button right under the course name.

I would not recommend this product to anyone. I have been using another one consistently and decided to switch it up. Do not do that! I put it on one eye and it works perfectly for 10 seconds and then the tip drys out. I tried tilting it, shaking it, and standing it up straight to try to get the liquid to come out. Nothing works. I don't think this product should be on the market at all.1
I got a sample of this in one of my birchboxes and loved it! I felt like it lasted for a while. So I bought it, and it dried out so quickly!! Such a waste of money. The tip is a great size and so on but I'm so bummed that the sample pen was better! Perhaps they lowered the quality?2
I got this liner as a sample and have been using it almost every day. It is so easy to handle and goes on exactly as I draw it. I love the precision it gives me, and it lasts all day and doesn't get covered up by eyeshadow like a lot of other liners. It's so easy to get perfect wings every time! :)5

Ohio Overpaid More Than 100,000 Unemployment Claims Last Year
In 2012, unemployed Ohioans collected $2.3 billion in state and federal unemployment compensation. An analysis of unemployment compensation data, however, found out that thousands of claims were over paid.
More 110,000 claims from throughout Ohio last year saw over payments totaling $87.3 million in 2012. The state also recovered $43 million in overpaid funds in 2012.
An official from the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services said that the overpayment problem began during the recession when the state pushed to deliver timely benefits to tens of thousands of jobless Ohioans. The department said that many of the overpayments are the result of honest mistakes.

When it comes to feeding raw, I can't stress enough how much homework and research I did before I switched our dogs over.
And I still made raw feeding mistakes.
I get lots of questions about feeding raw, which I love.
Occasionally, I get an email from someone who wants to know everything I buy, because they're switching TODAY! I so appreciate that enthusiasm, but I still think that homework is crucial if you don't want to end up with a sick dog.
Here are the books I've read and found useful about raw dog food…
Raw and Natural Nutrition for Dogs: The Definitive Guide to Homemade Meals
A Quick Start Guide to the Raw Dog Food Diet
A Quick-start guide to Raw Feeding
Raw Dog Food: Make It Easy for You and Your Dog
Here are blogs that discuss raw dog food…
Doctor Karen Becker, Mercola Healthy Pets
And Keep the Tail Wagging – LOL
Here are Facebook groups that discuss raw dog food with little to no drama…
Raw Food Diet for Dogs and Cats
Raw Dog Food Chat (this is my group)
This list isn't exhausted, but it's great for beginners and all of these resources helped remove the fear that I had about feeding raw.
Tomorrow is C for Cost of Feeding Raw Dog Food

Bynum Front Porch music series kicks off with Malpass Brothers
Bynum Front Porch, a nonprofit community organization, begins this year's Friday Night Music Series on May 3 with the traditional country music sounds of Malpass Brothers. Christopher and Taylor have toured with Merle Haggard and perform a variety of traditional country music influenced by the likes of Johnny Cash, Earnest Tubb, Faron Young, Hank Williams, Sr., Marty Robbins, Elvis Presley, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson and Jimmie Rodgers. In addition to traditional country music, other genres represented during the season include bluegrass, jazz, old time music, rhythm and blues, Latin American and Caribbean, roots, gospel, West African traditional music, folk, Americana, world music, rock, country and honky tonk.
All the Friday Night Music Series performances run from 7 to 9 p.m. on the outdoor stage at the Bynum General Store located at 950 Bynum Road. Although tickets are not required, a hat is passed and a $3 to $7 donation is encouraged to compensate the performers.
This year's series includes ZamBamBooGee, The Franklin Street Traditional Jazz Band, Boys From Carolina, Barefoot Movement, Holland Brothers Duo, Smith Family Band, John Howie Jr. and the Rosewood Bluff, Samantha Casey and The Bluegrass Jam, Mipso, Bethesda Bluegrass Band, Squier Red & the Blues Band, The South Carolina Broadcasters, Diali Cissokho & Kaira Ba, Dark Water Rising, Mary Johnson Rockers and The Spark, Saludos Compay and The Bluegrass Experience.
For a complete list and description of the bands, visit www.bynumfrontporch.org.
The music series began in 2001 as an effort among Bynum neighbors to create an event that would bring people to Bynum that could help sustain the Bynum General Store and Post Office. Unable to make a profit, the General Store's operator eventually closed the business in 2006. However, the community banded together and created the Bynum Front Porch organization and continues to produce the music series as well as other family friendly events.
People from all over the Triangle bring chairs, sit under the stars and enjoy live music spanning multiple musical genres from May to August.
In addition to the music series, Bynum Front Porch still hosts the Bynum Front Porch Pickin' the second and fourth Saturdays each month from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the store. These bluegrass sessions are open to musicians and singers of all ages and skill levels as well as to those who just want to enjoy the entertainment.

The annual Canucks Superskills event is a treat for Canucks fans, especially for fans who can't afford the price of admission to a regular game. The cheaper ticket price, combined with the fun atmosphere and events on the concourse, make it a great chance for parents to give their kids a closer look at their hockey heroes. It also manages to make me feel like a kid again, as I attended my second Superskills event last night. As an added bonus, all proceeds go to the Canucks For Kids Fund.
The Canucks Alumni kicked off the afternoon with a spirited contest. I love watching the alumni play: it's lighthearted fun and a great chance to see a few old favorites. I was hoping to see Cliff Ronning, my favorite Canuck of all-time, but it was not to be. Notable names, however, included Dave Babych, Chris Oddleifson, Garry Valk, and John Garrett, who dug up his classic mask, which clashed slightly with his green, blue, and white sweater. And even though he never played for the Canucks, Bill Ranford showed up, though he played as a defenseman instead of in net.
Garrett played as if a car was on the line, making save after save and hamming it up by bowing elaborately to the crowd after each ovation. Meanwhile, Valk depended on the easy-going nature of the game to get away with hook after hook, and even had the audacity to use his jersey to wipe down the linesman's visor after an offside call. At one point Valk gave Garrett a bump after the whistle, likely hoping he would slip and injure himself, freeing up the coveted Sportsnet Pacific colour commentator position for the "ex-Canuck turned analyst." The announcer warned that they were playing old-timer's rules: no running the goaltender, but that doesn't mean you can't make rude comments about his family.
The final score was 3-3, with Garrett making a classic pad-stacking saves in the final 5 seconds to preserve the tie. The unofficial three stars, compiled by my friend Ryan and myself, were as follows:
3rd Star: Dave Babych, who showcased strong defensive play in a game that was sorely lacking it and also tallied a highlight-reel goal as he jumped into the rush like he was Christian Ehrhoff and sneakily flicked the puck in shortside as he flew down the wing.
2nd Star: Chris Oddleifson, who showed he still has slick hands, sniping two goals past John Garrett and consistently looking dangerous, despite not wearing any shoulder pads.
1st Star: John "Cheech" Garrett, both for his legitimately good performance and his showmanship. The crowd loved him and it's hard to argue with the popular choice.
There was a brief break in the action at this point, highlighted by a game of musical chairs played by Fin and a gaggle of other mascots, which was clearly rigged in Fin's favor. If I was a bookie, I would be ticked, as it was clear that Bernie and S.J. Sharkie threw the match. They also showed some videos on the scoreboard, including the inaugural Canucks Scrabble Battle featuring PITB's own Harrison Mooney. We also spotted one person in the crowd wearing a Tanner Glass Scrabble Champ shirt.
In the meantime, we played Jersey Foul Bingo, created by my friend Lisa. The Bingo cards were painstakingly compiled, though they admittedly featured a number of spots that are not actually Jersey Fouls for the sake of filling out the card. For example, there's nothing wrong with wearing a jersey from a past era, but the column was filled with names such as O'Brien, Cloutier, and Carter, as well as gimmes like Bure. Actual jersey fouls on the card included jerseys from the wrong team (we spotted Blackhawks, Flyers, Penguins, and Canadiens), featuring D.I.Y. lettering, three-digit numbering, wrong/own name, and even wrong sport (we saw a football jersey, but no others). I came the closest to filling out my card, needing either a baseball jersey (saw plenty of hats), Manitoba Moose jersey, or CFL jersey. So close. We'll have to make our own Jersey Foul Bingo for our upcoming road trip.
The worst of the fouls we saw were the "B. Lo" and "Diggler" jerseys, both with 69 on the back. Classy. Also bad, but less awkward to explain to a 7-year-old attending the Superskills, was the baffling "W. Sedin" jersey with Henrik's 33. But the most audacious was the fellow who put his own name, "Sheppard," on the back of a current Canucks jersey, with the number 10 and the captain's "C" on the front. I'm sorry, but no. Not only are you not on the Canucks, you are not number 10 on the Canucks, and you are definitely not the captain of the Canucks. From where I'm sitting, which happens to be a pretty lofty perch on a rather tall horse, that is what the internet would refer to as a fail. If you happen to be reading this, please never wear it again. Instead, frame the jersey with all the numbers hidden so you can pretend it actually is a Henrik jersey.
Finally, the players themselves came out, split into Team Blue and Team Green. The four of us attending split our loyalties between the two teams so as to know for whom to cheer. My wife picked Team Blue, claiming that they appeared to be the underdogs. I noted the presence of Tambellini, Raymond, and Hansen on Team Blue, as well as Sami Salo, and quickly concluded that they already had the Fastest Skater and Hardest Shot contests in the bag and threw my support behind Team Green, the true underdogs.
The view from our seats as the teams lined up against each other.
First up was the warm-up event, a quick three-on-three game worth only 1 point in the overall competition. Ehrhoff scored the only two goals for Team Green, as they fell 4-2 to Team Blue thanks to two goals by Tambellini, including a cheeky between the legs shot to cap off the win. With that, the Canucks showed they were willing to get fancy to please the crowd.
Team Green owned the Puck Control Relay as Kesler, Malhotra, and Tanev proved faster than Hodgson, Burrows, and Ballard, mainly due to Ballard losing control of the puck on the final turn leaving Tanev free and clear. The 1-on-1 competition was Sedin vs. Sedin, as the twins eerily matched each other stride-for-stride including identical celebrations when they both thought they had won. They awarded the victory to Henrik, who further fueled Daniel's seething rage by claiming to be 5-0 in such competitions. In all honesty, it looked too close to call; the twins match each other's movements so exactly that it would not surprise me in the least if they crossed the finish line at the same time.
The Fastest Skater contest was, as suspected, no contest whatsoever. Team Blue had Raymond, Tambellini, and Hansen. Team Green had Glass, Ehrhoff, and Tanev. It wasn't even close: all three Team Blue skaters finished faster than the closest Team Green skater, Tanner Glass. Raymond took the prize with a time of 13.652, though Hansen surprised by beating Tambellini. It was Raymond's second year winning the event, leading to the most awkward moment of the event, as Dan Murphy asked if Raymond was looking forward to being back to try for the three-peat. Raymond paused and said, "I hope so," as the recent mentions of his name potentially on the trading block swam a brief lap through his head. He might not even be on the team tomorrow Murph; that's a bit of an insensitive question. The savvy Ian Walker picked up on it as well, though Raymond sloughed it off.
The downtime between events allowed for some crowd interaction, which leads me to the following two uncontroversial statements: the kid who won the Dance Cam contest is awesome and the Canucks' kids are entirely adorable. Kesler's daughter even took to the ice in her tiny skates, supported by her dad. Ehrhoff carried around his pigtailed daughter while thanking the crowd for coming out and Henrik had his son up on his shoulders at one point, carrying him around the ice. Another highlight was seeing three kids sitting side-by-side in one of the doors to the bench. Completely adorable.
The 3rd event of the afternoon was the Hardest Shot competition, with Rome and Salo participating for Team Blue and Hamhuis and Ehrhoff for Team Green. Without Edler, it seemed like Salo would have no competition and he set the bar reasonable high with a solid 101.5 mph shot. Ehrhoff came closest, with a surprising 101.1 mph shot of his own. Hamhuis topped out at 99.2 mph, with Rome tallying a respectable 96.4. What a boon to have those kinds of cannons at the point; with Edler scheduled to be back in time for the playoffs, the Canucks will have three defensemen who can shoot the puck over 100 mph.
Alex Burrows won the Accuracy competition for Team Blue, hitting four straight targets after ringing his first shot off the post. Samuelsson also went 4-for-5, necessitating a one-target playoff, which took Burrows 3 shots to hit, but was entirely missed by Samuelsson. The win put Blue up 8-4 as they entered into the final 2 contests with more points on the line.
The Power Play contest featured 3 players from one team against a defenseman and a goalie: first up was Tambellini, Burrows, and Daniel Sedin for Team Blue against Hamhuis and Luongo. They managed 2 quick goals, but some bizarre passing between Hammy and Lu prevented anymore damage as they ragged the puck around the boards. Torres, Glass, and Kesler for Team Green took on Ballard and Schneider, but could only create one goal, a beautiful forehand-backhand move by Glass, which prompted a Scrabble joke from Murph.
Hodgson, Oreskovich, and Raymond, which was actually the fourth line at the end of the Canucks' game against the Bruins, appeared next for Team Blue and took advantage of Tanev's raw rookieness to the tune of 2 goals. Henrik, Malhotra, and Samuelsson responded in kind for Team Green, netting 2 goals, though the third was on Henrik's stick with a wide-open net as time ran out. As is often the case, Henrik hung on to the puck as long as possible before releasing it. Henrik with the puck is a little like a kid nursing an injured baby bird back to health: he'll take good care of it, touch it gently, hold it close, and never want to let it go. Then he'll saucer pass it cross-ice through a maze of legs and sticks so it can be one-timed into the back of the net.
The final contest was the highlight of the event: the Breakaway Relay. A lot of the Canucks got fancy with their attempts, which didn't always result in goals but always got a big reaction from the crowd. Tambellini made like Rob Schremp with his first attempt, sweeping the puck up onto his stick then pulling off some crazy lacrosse-like moves, before attempting to sling the puck by Luongo…but the puck refused to leave his stick. Apparently the adhesive he used was a little too strong. Luongo hilariously responded by skating out and shooting away the puck for his next attempt before Tambellini could get to it.
Hamhuis then stole the show by going 2-for-2, making a case for being used in the shootout as he pulled off a Forsbergian one-hander that Schneider couldn't quite snag, then roofed his next attempt from his knees. Ballard went 1-for-2 himself, with his goal a slick backhand move as he lazily chewed some gum that he likely stole from Alain Vigneault's private stash. His second attempt was a tricky combination of a distracting glove throw and a shot before his other hand returned to his stick. He pulled it off by kicking his stick forward, a clever little move that didn't pay off as Luongo easily kicked it aside then dismissively swept Ballard's glove from the crease.
Burrows tried to get fancy, showing off some surprisingly slick moves, but Luongo stood tall. Tanner Glass tried my favorite move of the evening, as he dove out on his belly, passed the puck from his hand to his stick and tried to sweep it past Schneider. It was entirely ineffective, but it did succeed at being funny-looking, so the crowd loved it. Raffi Torres proceeded to flip out: being funny-looking is my gig, get a new bit. Raymond and Daniel followed up by each going 1-for-2, though Daniel benefited from Luongo taking himself out for a spin and a backwards somersault. Pro-tip, kids: don't do that in a game.
After Samuelsson went 1-for-2, Kesler had his initial attempt stopped, prompting him to take a page from Ballard's book and attempt to distract Schneider by throwing his glove. But, instead of a friendly toss in the air, Kesler aggressively chucked it right at Schneider's logo before wristing the puck off the post and in. Now Kesler, what would your daughter say about that?
All that remained was tallying the final score. Team Blue, who definitely were not underdogs, finished with the victory, 16-14. And all that was left for us was to pick up our free Canucks window clings, eat our free yogurt(it was a little sweet), and snag a free pepperoni stick on the way out the door. Free is my favorite price.In closing: it was a wonderful afternoon and I encourage you to attend next year if you get the chance.Tags: Canucks, Canucks For Kids Fund, complaining about John Garrett, Eyewitness Report, Jersey Foul Bingo, Jersey Fouls, Superskills, Violence against birds, Yes I Will Continue To Call Him Hammy
Jersey foul bingo is a great idea! I am constantly pointing out bad jerseys at games… I saw the "sheppard" guy with the 'c' at the Blues game on Thursday. Completely unnacceptable. Putting your own name on a jersey is only okay if you are under the age of ten. And I'm very disappointed in the number of people who got namebars added to the 40th Anniversary jersey! That's a blatant jersey foul.

|New Exhibition at CAF on O'Hare Airport
|Friday, 16 January 2009 06:06
Documenting the Definitive Modern Airport is the new exhibition open Jan. 15-May 1 at the Chicago Architecture Foundation (CAF), 224 S. Michigan Avenue in Chicago. Free and open daily, the exhibition portrays O'Hare as an international model of airport design.
Innovations such as a central parking garage, movable jetway bridges, and the two-tiered drive separating arrivals and departures, established O'Hare as the industry standard for jet-age airport design. One of the largest architectural commissions in Chicago's history, O'Hare was designed by architects led by C.F. Murphy Associates.
The exhibition consists of photographs that depict O'Hare from the 1950s through the 1980s. It includes black and white images from Hedrich-Blessing and color photographs by Robert Burley as well as a pair of Eames O'Hare Tandem Sling Seats, an acoustic installation of airport sounds, and a newspaper brochure with additional historical material.
The exhibition is curated by Charles Waldheim, principal of Urban Agency and director of the landscape architecture program at the University of Toronto.
"Charles Waldheim has assembled an iconic collection of photographs and we hope to attract architects, engineers, lovers of modern design and everyone who has flown in or out of O'Hare," said Lynn Osmond, Chicago Architecture Foundation President and CEO.
Waldheim will provide an overview at the exhibition opening on Jan. 15 and a lecture on Jan. 16. www.architecture.org for more info.

Beyoncé is handling the leak of her upcoming album, 4, surprisingly well for someone who spent more than a year working on the project.
When "Till The End of Time" leaked, Bey's people were quick to plug up all the holes, but when the entire album leaked, she had a very different reaction. In fact, she seems to be taking the whole thing in stride.
"My music was leaked and while this is not how I wanted to present my new songs, I appreciate the positive response from my fans," Bey said in a Facebook statement.
Typically, Beyoncé doesn't speak on leaks; she just has her people clean up the mess. And it would stand to reason that something this huge would set the "Single Ladies" singer off, as she's been crafting 4 for more than a year.
The modern-day diva has said that she experimented quite a bit with her music this time around, and producers working on 4 have said that she really upped the ante with the upcoming album.
"When I record music I always think about my fans singing every note and dancing to every beat," Bey stated. "I make music to make people happy and I appreciate that everyone has been so anxious to hear my new songs.
With 4 set to drop on June 28, this impromptu preview has some wondering if this leak was actually a way to test the market for her new music. After all, her lead single, "Who Run the World (Girls)," hasn't done so well, and there's no way Bey wants to release a flop.

North Creek With tough times and scarce jobs, the North Country Ministry has looked for ways to help struggling Adirondack neighbors since 1992.
The ministry began as a pilot project of four major orders of the Sisters of the Albany Diocese. Joining the project were the parishes of Sacred Heart, Lake George; St. Cecilia's, Warrensburg: and St. James, North Creek. Sisters Fan Husselbeck, RSM and Mary Flynn, CSJ arrived in August of 1992.
Initially, the group was an additional religious presence to these parishes, assisting with their spiritual and educational programs. They established the Gathering Place, a community lunch program, that fall and a Family Clothing Center that winter. Each year they developed and expanded their community outreach services in these towns and others.
Today, the ministry is a non-denominational group working to meet the needs of the local poor and disenfranchised. Services offered are supportive counseling, referral and advocacy. Programs include the Gathering Place, the Family Clothing Center, the Furniture Barn (recycled furniture and household items), Adult Living Units (affordable adult housing), two food pantries, Baby's Place (clothing and supplies ages 0-3), Parenting Support, Car Seat Safety Program, Emergency Fire Wood and emergency financial assistance.
The ministry has outreach centers in North Creek and Warrensburg. With the help of over 100 volunteers, it provides services to more than 1,000 people a month in a 650-square-mile area.

Whistleblowers: Essential Voices for Accountability A Discussion with Whistleblowing Experts and Two Famous Truth-Tellers
April 22, 2014 12:45pm - 2:00pm
The panel will take place at 12:45 p.m. on April 22 in Room 280A.
Lunch will be served.
Please join us for a lunchtime discussion with two headline-making whistleblowers who have stood up, at great personal risk:
· Kathryn Bolkovac, whose story inspired the movie The Whistleblower starring Rachel Wiesz, who challenged human trafficking in Bosnia by U.N. peacekeepers
· Rick Piltz, who disclosed the George W. Bush administration's censorship of climate science reports
The discussion will be framed by two national experts on whistleblowing from the Government Accountability Project (GAP):
· Bea Edwards, Executive & International Program Director
· Dana Gold, Attorney & Senior Fellow
GAP is the nation's leading whistleblower protection and advocacy organization, which represents, among many others, Edward Snowden and four other NSA whistleblowers. GAP, a non-partisan, non-profit public interest group founded in 1977 and based in Washington, DC, litigates whistleblower cases, helps expose wrongdoing to the public, and actively promotes government and corporate accountability in such areas as food safety, banking, environmental protection and national security.
