To install them following this guide? Yes..do as the guide says. First backup all your files format the card, install what is needed, format the card again and put your files back.
Damn I suck!!!!
ok thanks Krank, will follow as you suggest and see how it goes, just didn't want to start before making sure i could remember what i was doing
I formatted the SD card, extracted rar file onto sd card and there are the 3 items on it.
wad folder
apps folders
mmmconfig.txt file
In the homebrew channel i selected the multi-mod manager (mmm) and clicked load and installed the 3 iso.
Put the backup files back onto the sd card and selected Guitar hero 5 and 6, changed the iso to 223 in settings and both now play from my usb hard drive
many thanks...

Ok, I have not been able to find help at all for this from anyone, hopefully you guys can help me. I have all of my World Tour DLC on my 2gb SD Card, I have BOTH updates in my SD card, and they all work great on GH5. Now, when I try to access my SD card in ANY way on GH6, be it to move some songs to my wii (which I really dont want to do, but it was just to test it.). or download a new song to the card.... Anything involving the SD card, it tells me "Unable To Read SD Card". Now, in quickplay+, all of my DLC shows without a problem, but when I start to play them...... "Unexpected Error Ocurred While Reading SD Card". What on Earth do I do, this game is supposed to be compatible with my card, it's a Sandisk for Wii 2gb... I don't want to use an SDHC or move songs to my Wii, What can I do??? Even when I try to purchase songs..... "Unexpected Error When Reading SD Card".
I've been trying to get The Beatles: Rock Band to work using this guide to no avail. I have also used the guide here to similar failure. Here are the results of my syscheck, any glaring holes?

Matt AlbuquerqueMatt Albuquerque is a certified practitioner in orthotics and prosthetics with 25 years of experience and is president of Next Step Orthotics and Prosthetics. It was the summer of 1996 when Matt took the steps to making his dream of truly helping people a reality. At the time, he was working for a national O & P organization, where he felt that their biggest concern was strictly a "bottom line" mentality without any regard for healing the person. Being able to make a positive impact on people's lives was the reason he had entered the field. Working for this national company, where fiscal responsibilities outweighed doing the right thing proved to be an intolerable situation for him. He was left with making the decision of either leaving the field or finding another way. Next Step was started to provide another way. Next Step became the embodiment of a group of people who were put together to provide an atmosphere where sincere care can be given, dignity and respect can be attained and where people are treated as people.

One of the most important session musicians in rock,
the late Nicky Hopkins is the ultimate unsung session hero. His piano, organ, and other types of keyboard contributions can be heard on hit songs by the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Who, and many others.
Nicky Hopkins started with Screaming Lord Sutch's Savages, which also included Jimmy Page (another session hero and founder of Led Zeppelin). He played with the Cyril Davies All Stars, one of the first British rhythm & blues bands (Nicky plays piano on the Country Line Special album).
In 1965, he played piano on the Who's debut album and started playing keyboards in sessions for the top British bands including the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and the Kinks, and on solo albums by John Lennon, Jeff Beck, and others. He played with the Stones on their amazing unreleased concert film from 1968, Rock and Roll Circus (at left). Nicky eventually moved to San Francisco and helped define the S.F. sound, playing on Jefferson Airplane and Steve Miller Band albums, and even briefly joined Quicksilver Messenger Service.
Here's an excellent Nicky Hopkins site, and a complete list of Nicky Hopkins sessions.
"Shady Grove" (Wands) by Quicksilver Messenger Service
This was the beginning of a new sound for the venerable San Francisco acid rock band. Quicksilver Messenger Service was started by Dino Valenti (a.k.a. Chet Powers), who was promptly busted before the first album came out. Founder Gary Duncan (guitar) left after the second album, and Nicky Hopkins joined the group, which by the time of the Shady Grove album was comprised of John Cipollina (guitar), David Freiberg (guitar and bass), and Greg Elmore (drums).
Clearly inspired by the Charlatans, Quicksilver was known for extended blues jams with a honky-tonk edge, courtesy of newcomer Hopkins. "Shady Grove" is an electric psychedelic version of a popular folk song. See the John Cipollina Homepage fan site. See also the Official Quicksilver site.
"La La La Lies" (Peter Townshend) by The Who
Nicky Hopkins duels on piano with Keith Moon on drums, while Pete Townshend plays guitar, John Entwhistle plays bass, and Roger Daltry sings. This song defines the way Nicky's piano would "peek out" from behind the rock group's sound. Nicky Hopkins plays throughout the album, adding "color" to songs like "My Generation" and "The Ox" and the James Brown cover song, "Please, Please, Please". Nicky often sat in on studio sessions with the Who and appeared on several important albums including Who's Next. Check out the Who official Web site.
"Sunny Afternoon" (Ray Davies) by the Kinks
Nicky Hopkins plays both piano and the melodica solo on the Kinks' hit "Sunny Afternoon". He started playing with the Kinks on the Face To Face album and also played on other Kinks tunes such as "Waterloo Sunset".
Shel Talmy, the Kinks early producer, helped find gigs for Nicky Hopkins and his pal, Jimmy Page, another session hero (and founder of Led Zeppelin), and also produced Nicky's first solo album, The Revolutionary Piano of Nicky Hopkins (1966).
"Jigsaw Puzzle" (Jagger, Richards) by the Rolling Stones
Nicky adds more than color to this track. His signature rhythm part is evident, building up, dueling with Charlie Watts on drums, providing a distinctive backbeat. Brian Jones plays some of his best slide guitar on this song.
Nicky Hopkins played on quite a few Stones songs, starting with "Cool Calm Collected" and including "Gimme Shelter", "She's a Rainbow", "Child of the Moon", "You Got the Silver", and "Sway". Nicky also accompanied the Stones on tour from 1971 to 1973. Check out the Rolling Stones Web Site for official news of the band.
"Eskimo Blue Day" (Slick, Kantner) by Jefferson Airplane
Nicky's piano provides the essential backbone and rhythm for this haunting tune, sung by Grace Slick. Lead guitar is Jorma Kaukonen, with Jack Cassady on bass, Paul Kantner on rhythm guitar, and Spencer Dryden on drums.
Check out this Jefferson Airplane fan site and Rockument radio shows -- Monterey Pop Songs and San Francisco Psychedelic Rock -- that also feature Airplane tracks.
"Volunteers" (Balin, Kantner) by Jefferson Airplane (live at Woodstock 1969)
The quintessential Nicky Hopkins piano riffs add color to this anthem of the Sixties. This is the live version played at Woodstock in 1969, in which Grace Slick announces Nicky joining the band for this number. Nicky also played on the studio version on the Volunteers album.
"Revolution" (Lennon, McCartney) by the Beatles (single version)
Nicky delivers the absolutely definitive best rock 'n' roll piano solo in the middle of this popular Beatles single (the most popular single of all time -- the flip side of "Hey Jude"). Nicky was brought in especially for this piano overdub. George Harrison was later to return the favor by playing on Nicky Hopkins' solo album Tin Man Was a Dreamer (1973).
"Sour Milk Sea" (George Harrison) by Jackie Lomax
The ultimate session song on the ultimate session album, Is This What You Want (above left). Nicky leads the backing band that consists of Eric Clapton and George Harrison on guitars, Paul McCartney on bass and Ringo on drums.
Jackie Lomax was a Liverpool singer-songwriter and an early friend of the Beatles. At this time, the Beatles had just finished the White Album and were looking for other artists to produce for their new Apple Records label. Jackie Lomax's album, produced mostly by George Harrison, was part of a series of records that included James Taylor's first album, Doris Troy's first album, and George Harrison's solo effort Wonderwall Music, all on the Apple Records label (see see Beatles Facts for more about Wonderwall Music).
"Jealous Guy" by John Lennon
Nicky played, sometimes uncredited, on many John Lennon solo songs, including "Imagine", "Crippled Inside", "How" and "Oh Yoko". There is a very poignant scene in the DVD Imagine (Deluxe) (above left) in which John Lennon demonstrates to Nicky the piano notes for "Imagine" and asks him to double-up on John's piano playing to give it a fuller sound.
"The Song is Over" (Peter Townshend) by The Who
Nicky's piano adds grandeur to this Pete Townshend tune from Townshend's Lifehouse project, which was later abandoned and the tracks used for the Who's Next album. This piano part is by far one of the best in the history of rock music -- serious Who fans know it by heart. Check out the Who official Web site.
"Edward (the Mad Shirt Grinder)" (Nicky Hopkins) by Quicksilver Messenger Service
This is Nicky's magnum opus with Quicksilver, and the song he is most remembered for (it appeared on Shady Grove and on Anthology, below left). I don't know who Edward was, or why he was grinding shirts madly, but this song is essentially a duel between Nicky (on piano and organ) and John Cipollina on guitar. There's another version of this song on George Harrison's Wonderwall Music album (on Apple Records -- see Beatles Facts), which contains bonus tracks including "Edward" with George Harrison on lead guitar. See the John Cipollina Homepage fan site. See also the Official Quicksilver site.
"Spindrifter" (Nicky Hopkins) by Quicksilver Messenger Service
This beautiful piano song was recorded just before Nicky left the group to resume his session activities. He was replaced by Mark Naftalin. It appeared on the What About Me album and in the Anthology (at left). See the John Cipollina Homepage fan site. See also the Official Quicksilver site.
"Girl from Mill Valley" (Nicky Hopkins) by the Jeff Beck Group
A beautiful love song by Nicky Hopkins with the Jeff Beck Group that appeared on Beck-Ola, featuring session heroes Jeff Beck on guitar, Ron Wood (future Rolling Stone) on bass, and Tony Newman on drums. There are numerous fan pages devoted to Jeff Beck, including this one, which is quite good and has links to many others. Also check out the Yardbirds Official Site (Jeff Beck replaced Eric Clapton in the original Yardbirds).
More Nicky Hopkins:
Jamming with Edward: Two of the greatest unsung session heroes -- Nicky Hopkins and Ry Cooder -- jammed together with members of the Rolling Stones on some blues songs and a few originals on this album, released by Rolling Stones Records.
Nicky Hopkins started out playing with the Cyril Davies All Stars and with other musicians in the group Sweet Thursday, which released an album in 1969 called Sweet Thursday. Jon Mark (who wrote half the songs) is the focus of the band, which included Alun Davies, who later played with Cat Stevens (here's a review of the album).
Nicky Hopkins' other solo albums include The Revolutionary Piano of Nicky Hopkins (1966) and Tin Man Was a Dreamer (1973).

For Walters, just being around the Grand Canyon is a renewing experience. No matter how often he paints it en plein air, he finds something sublime that evokes a new point of departure in his work. Regardless of the subject, the common thread in all his plein air paintings, and what leads to an inspired and inspiring outdoor painting, is Walters' desire to know more about the subject itself.
Beyond that, Walters says that what distinguishes his work from that of other plein air painters is his attention to the middle ground in almost all of his landscapes. That area is most often avoided by many plein air artists, who focus more on the detail of the foreground and drama of the background. Walters' focus on the middle ground allows a scene to unfold naturally, and creates a center of interest that immediately catches the eye.
For more highlights on what makes a successful plein air painting, consider downloading a digital copy of Plein Air Painting. Its stellar painting information is sure to put you farther on the road to becoming the artist you want to be. Enjoy!

Donald Hankey was – and has remained – one of the most enigmatic personalities to feature in the narrative of the Great War.
Over the past 15 years, a substantial, diverse group of scholars has worked to develop the concept of the 'British world'. They have explored the various and varied connections that linked Britain with a wider British diaspora. The focus has been predominantly on the so-called 'colonies of settlement' or 'white Dominions': Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa.
Having illuminated the production of polemical print to great effect in his first monograph, Politicians and Pamphleteers, Dr Peacey addresses its appropriation in his second, Print and Public Politics in the English Revolution.
When in 1882 Nietzsche had his mad messenger announce the death of God, he was well aware that he was reporting something of more than merely theological significance.
Nest of Deheubarth, a 12th-century Welsh princess, has a presence well beyond academic history and interests. She was one of the most famous Welsh princesses and over the centuries has had a significant impact on Welsh history and identity.
To Forget It All and Begin Anew: Reconciliation in Occupied Germany, 1944-1954 / Steven M. Schroeder
The transformation of Germany after the Second World War from Nazism into a prosperous and peaceful state has long exerted a particular fascination upon historians. In the last four decades, legions of scholars have sought to explain the presumably miraculous 'success story' of the Federal Republic by a range of factors.
Monarchy and the End of Empire: The House of Windsor, the British Government, and the Postwar Commonwealth / Philip Murphy
Philip Murphy's Monarchy and the End of Empire is a carefully researched and beautifully presented book that chronicles the relationship between the monarchy, the UK government, and the decolonisation of the British Empire.
Elizabeth I (1533–1603) has been the subject of many fictional representations, some as early as the 1680s, speculating about her private life. Theatre plays, novels and later also films explored the allegations made against her during her life-time, such as suggestions that the Queen was infertile, that she was malformed, or in fact, a man or a hermaphrodite (p. 355).
Gemma Allen's well-conceived and meticulously researched first book explores the ways in which themes of education, piety and politics interacted and impacted on the lives of the Cooke sisters in late 16th-century England.

"Dick Cheney watches television": The four previously unseen 9/11 photos that will make you hate the evil VP all over again
Topics: Mad Men, TV, matt weiner, Entertainment News
The last new episode of "Mad Men" aired on Oct. 17, 2010. Next Sunday — a year and and five months later — we'll finally get another glimpse of Don Draper, Peggy Olson, the other employees of Sterling, Cooper, Draper, Pryce and all their chic outfits, when "Mad Men" begins its long-awaited fifth season.
Matt Weiner, the show's creator, spoke with us about the new season, or, more accurately, spoke with us on the occasion of the new season. Weiner, as you'll see, is a strict constructionist when it comes to spoilers, and in addition to specifically requesting that the press reveal nothing to the audience — not the year in which the new season is set or basic plot developments — he makes sure to answer questions with as few hints as possible. But, even avoiding major plot revelations, Weiner had a lot to say about this year's big themes, all those TV shows aping "Mad Men's" style, the recent controversy about the "Mad Men" ad campaign, and when, if ever, American society is going to get back to normal.
I found it very touching to see these characters again after so long. Did you find that you had missed them?
I did. I did tremendously. Part of the reason that I ended up with a two-hour premiere was because I thought the audience deserved it after waiting so long. And part of it was that I started writing that first episode, and once I had that first episode outlined, it just kept going. It was even longer than what it is. Without having a spoiler about the show, when Joan says, "I missed you all so much," in the premiere, I did feel that when I went back to work. But keep in mind, I went back to work in May; I wasn't off as long as the audience was.
In the time before May, how much were you thinking about the characters and what might be good for the show?
Twenty-four hours a day. Every day, all my dreams, everything I do is somehow affected by this project. Roland Barthes wrote this essay "The Writer on Holiday" about how writers — not that we work harder than anyone else — really never stop. That part of your brain is beyond curiosity; it's almost kind of predatory.
Everything is material.
Everything is material. I've been lucky because of the show, and I've always had this personality where people tell me things. But I really tried not to think specifically about the show. I really didn't want to have a plan in case my negotiation didn't work out. I didn't want to be heartbroken. I said to myself, "As far as I know, the Season 4 finale is the end of the series." And I try to do that every year anyway, quite honestly. I try to make it so that every season finale could be the end of the series. I plot the story out that way and deliver it that way.
From the premiere, it seems like race is going to be a big theme this season.
I don't know if it is going to be that big a theme. I swear to you, and I'm not just saying that because I don't want it to be in the article! The show is about how change is coming. And change is a joke to these people, because they're insulated and successful and wealthy and whether they like it or not, it's going to end up in their living room. Even if they think it's a joke, it's going to show up right on their doorstep.
The show is not a history lesson. I don't want to ignore what's going on, but I always like to think about how we experience history. Very few times in your life do you wake up and find out that a plane has flown into the World Trade Center. The rest of it is very gradual and small. The war ended this year in Iraq. That will be marked in a history book, and someone, in the future, who is writing about this period, will write, "In early 2012 the war was finally over and Obama went on to the election trail and blah-blah-blah," but we didn't experience it that way. It was a blip, which was incredible because it was one of the longer wars that we've been involved in.
You live your life. You want to eat, drink, be merry, maybe you will focus on your kid, maybe you will focus on your career, but the history part of it just becomes a mood.
Do you have insight into why "Mad Men," this show set in the '60s, has pretty much been the Zeitgeist show of the last four or five years?
I don't and I don't want to question it. It's not my job as an artist. I'm not even supposed to be a part of the culture. I'm just supposed to reflect it, to try to feel it. I'm interested in how society feels, and how the people around me feel.
I remember writing the second season of the show, 1962, and realizing that not only in the history books, but also in my life, people seemed to be obsessed with the end of the world. I kept seeing it everywhere. It wasn't even the 2012 thing, it was like, "Well, we're all going to be here when the world ends." Global warming had just become a huge issue and there was this incredible bleakness about the environment and everything. It's not as bad now as it was then. There was a sort of cultural realization of "We are actually out of oil. We have actually ruined the environment."
Equally, in 1962, it was the same year we were dealing with the Cuban missile crisis. And when I was reading about 1962, which was actually an idyllic period in American history, I found references to the end of the world everywhere. I hope I'm channeling that. I'm not trying to say I'm Nostradamus, but I write about what I'm interested in and what I'm feeling. One of the things that I'm writing about right now is the idea of "When is everything going to get back to normal?" We almost put that statement on the poster at some point.
But knowing the history of the '60s, the audience knows that it's never going to get back to normal.
Do you really know that? Don't you feel that you were at some point in the last three to four years more secure than you are right now?
But in [the year the new season is set]?
I don't want you to say the year! I really don't want you to say it. I'd like for people not to know about that. I don't think the audience wants to know. There's so much to write about, my God, but I can't believe I have to justify why I don't want people to know. I was like, this is the way it used to be all the time! Before the Internet, no one was asking on a daily basis what's going to happen.
So, when is everything going to get back to normal? It's not! This is the new normal!
Ha! Exactly. Maybe it's because I'm 46. Is that why I'm feeling this? But people way younger than me do too, about the getting back to normal. We are suffering such deep national self-esteem problems, that we are turning on each other. People are bringing up issues from like the 18thcentury about marriage and homosexuality and evolution, which, literally, all of us thought that we were beyond. People are questioning whether this country is secular or not. I thought that had been resolved. You look at it and it's not just politics. They feel the same way on the other side.
I've seen the experience of watching the show described as a superiority complex: If you have hindsight you know what's going to happen, and we're so smart nowadays, and the show is saying, "Look how dumb they are." It's not that at all. You're supposed to get a sense of companionship. You're supposed to get a sense of complicity and a sense of the origins of our disease and how this disease is not unique to this period.
Do you feel complimented by all the ersatz-"Mad Men" period-shows [like "Playboy Club" and "Pan Am"] that have popped up?
The compliment for me is that the companies that are making them all hated my script! They were so incredibly dismissive to me. Some of the people who were involved in one of these new shows literally rejected me four times. And to see them jumping on the bandwagon, and to see their perception of why the show succeeded, that it was somehow about haircuts and bra cups. On the other hand, part of me is like, I'm in TV, and there have been plenty of period TV shows.
When I grew up, the biggest TV shows were "Happy Days" and "MASH." I don't own this concept. And from a writer's standpoint, any writer who goes through that entire process with a major network and ends up with the show on the air, all they have is my heartfelt congratulations. It is a hard road to hoe. And they don't need me sitting out here wishing failure on them. I don't.
But creatively, I've got to say, why don't they take a risk doing something else? This was a huge risk for AMC. No one thought that anyone would give a crap about this show. It had no stars, and we were on a channel with no time slot. It had no audience and this is what happened. I bet most networks have a dozen scripts hanging out there that are bold and amazing and new and they never want to do that. They try to make people do stuff that is already out there.
There's some been controversy about this year's ad campaign calling to mind the 9/11 jumpers …
I think it's an excuse for journalists to show that picture again. I do, I think they're exploiting 9/11. The thing that I realized was that a lot more people did not know what the show was: That image is the show. It's been a part of the show since the beginning. To suggest that I'm not reverent to the tragedy is ridiculous. I hate to say it, but a businessman falling out of a window is a symbol that far precedes that event. What I see are journalists looking for a story, going and confronting these 9/11 victims. It's like going to Coretta Scott King and being like, "Do you hate movies where people play your husband?" They can trot out that picture again, which was always a controversial picture to someone who lived through it. As someone who was very, very involved in the campaign, and trying to get people to watch the show, I was stunned that someone would try to bring it up again.
Are you enjoying talking about the show now that some people have seen it?
I am, I'm enjoying talking about it! I have a unique situation because I've finished the entire season and that's never happened before. So when I did this before, there would be this knot in my gut about if I could pull it off, or if I would even live to see the end of the season. But now — I'm not saying that I pulled it off — but at least I am done and have the full experience of something that is a once-in-a-lifetime thing.

Love still sparkling for diamond Goldenhill couple on Valentine's Day
Posted: February 14, 2013|
CHILDHOOD sweethearts Audrey and Derrick Woods are celebrating their diamond wedding anniversary – on the most romantic day of the year.
The couple tied the knot at St Margaret's Church, in Wolstanton, on Valentine's Day 1953.
And 60 years on the lovebirds, of Bosley Grove, Goldenhill, are still going strong.
Mrs Woods, aged 77, said: "When we got married it was a very cold day. There was snow on the ground and I was late for my own wedding.
Related content
"We got married about 13 months after we met. We could have done it a week earlier but I wanted to wait and marry on Valentine's Day instead. I thought it would be more romantic."
The couple, who met as teenagers, regularly enjoyed dancing together and say their fondest memories include trips to Blackpool and the birth of their four children, Sheila, David, Michael and Julie.
Retired office worker Mrs Woods added: "Blackpool wasn't somewhere I wanted to go but Derrick loves it.
"He comes alive when we go there.
"We have a lot of fond memories, too many to mention, but one of the highlights of our lives was having our children. We always wanted a big family.
"We enjoyed holidays to Butlins too. We had some really great times.
The couple have four children, five grandchildren and one great-grandchild.
Retired bricklayer Mr Woods said: "I was working when I first saw Audrey. One of my friends told me she would be good for me because she was about my age.
"She was a really good looking young lady and I would say it was love at first sight.
"I had seen her around before because she only lived a few streets away from me in Wolstanton.
"I whistled at her to get her attention and we have been together ever since."
The pair used to enjoy socialising at Middleport Workingmen's Club where Mr Woods was a bingo caller.
But more recently they spend most of their time together visiting family who live across the UK.
Mr Woods, aged 81, added: "We never spent much time going travelling to foreign places. We've only ever been as far as the Isle of Wight, because Audrey doesn't like the heat."
Mrs Woods said: "We have both had health problems so we tend not to plan anything in advance anymore. If we want to do something we just get up and go.
"Family has always been very important to us, that has been our main focus in life, but we have lot of friends too."
The couple say the secret to a long and happy marriage is 'give and take'.
Mrs Woods added: "I don't believe anyone who tells me they have never had an argument, marriage is about give and take. We have had a lot of downs in our lives but we have had a lot more ups."

Dorchester County Councilman Larry Hargett's compelling June 20 commentary in The Post and Courier connected the dots between the dismal turnout in the 2014 state primary election and voter apathy. Importantly, his analysis suggests additional factors contributing to low participation in our state's civic life.
I'm a long-time member of the League of Women Voters, an organization committed to increasing citizen engagement in our democracy. Based on experience, I can relate to Mr. Hargett's claim that, when people think that their votes don't matter and that issue advocacy with elected officials makes no difference, they zone out of civic participation, including voting.
Ours is a representative democracy in which citizens elect officials - local, state and federal - who are supposed to work in the best interest of all the residents of their districts, state and nation.
But we live in a state in which voting districts are gerrymandered to favor candidates of one of the major political parties. Thus incumbents remain in office until they commit some outrageously egregious offense or obtain a more lucrative position. Some stay in office even then.
Democracy suffers when citizens are discouraged from getting involved in civic life, including running for office themselves. Evidence of that is the dearth of women candidates.
Another factor contributing to citizen apathy is the perception that government is corrupt, leading many to wonder why they should bother to vote or take action on an issue.
Suspicion is heightened by reports that our state's laws governing the ethical behavior of officials are among the nation's weakest.
The recent refusal of the General Assembly to pass even a modest strengthening of the state's ethics laws demonstrates that the majority of legislators represent their own interests, not those of the citizens who elect them.
And citizen access to our democracy was only diminished with the state Supreme Court's recent ruling loosening agenda rules for public bodies like city and county councils, no longer requiring them to publish agendas before their regular meetings and allowing them to add to the list of items they plan to discuss or vote on any time during those meetings.
How do we go about improving our state's civic health? We do so by restoring faith in our electoral system and trust in elected officials. In a strong legislative state like South Carolina, action must start at the Statehouse.

Belts for a 13-year old
I bought this set of belts for my 13-year old daughter, and she loves them. She does not like wearing belts and I figured if we bought these maybe she would like them since they are thin, cute and girlie. Say no more, she is now wearing belts! Nice colors, good material.

L.E.A. Douglas Consulting
Designated as a CMA (Certified Management Accountant)
I have been a Professional Accountant since 1985.
I have always marvelled at events in life that change one's path. This happened to me in 1976. Living in Montreal during the Summer Olympic Games, I worked as an International Operator and spoke only French, Italian and Spanish.
It was then I realized that the rest of the world spoke English. I decided that in order to be successful I needed to learn English so I enrolled at McGill University. Having started out not speaking a word of English, it was with a great sense of accomplishment that I graduated in 1979 with a Degree in Business. I completed my Accounting designation within the next few years.
Early in my career, I was involved in the corporate world and worked for Hudson's Bay, Gillette, Northern Telecom, Annacis Auto Terminal and Island Paper Mills. After moving to the West in the early 90's, my second life-changing event happened. The birth of my lovely daughter was the catalyst I needed to make a major decision.
As much as I enjoyed the corporate world, and despite having worked really hard to reach the level of Director of Finance, I was at a crossroads. Would I continue in the corporate world and get a nanny to raise my daughter or rearrange my priorities and change my career path?
As you probably have guessed, I chose to rearrange my working life and become an entrepreneur with a home-based business.I have never looked back. The flexibility alone has made it all worthwhile, and professionally, I run a successful private accounting practice from the comfort of my home.
My passion has always been to help other entrepreneurs understand taxes; hence I specialize in Small Business and Home-based Businesses.I have been able to help thousands of entrepreneurs and look forward to helping many more.

Me.dium is one of those unique Firefox addons that delivers a service that none so far have been able to duplicate. Giving you a way to chat live with other people on the same page – the idea is simple, yet brilliant. I recently had the chance to get a quick interview in with David Mandell the founder and VP of Marketing at Me.dium.
Does it make you feel nervous at all that your success is so tied into the success of addons for the browser? You have clients for both Firefox and Internet Explorer, but what if addons sometime become "not so cool".
Sure, industry change always makes us nervous. The key is to continually provide enough value for the user that cool transforms into indispensable. We are trying to provide a tremendous amount of information in a very small space, so there is always the possibility of looking at other ways to display the value, but at this point, the experience of surfing with your friends is so tied to where you are on the Internet, that a marriage between the browser and Me.dium makes sense.
How quickly has your user base grown and how many average users would you say you have at the present date and time?
We've been very pleased with our user growth and Firefox has played a big part in that. We're looking forward to the 3.0 upgrade to fuel even more users. While specific numbers aren't something that we publicize, the key with Me.dium has always been more about whether there are people that matter to me (my friends or people doing similar things) online right now. We have gotten to the point now where there are enough people using Me.dium at the same time that you are no longer alone online. You can bump into your friends and gain value by watching the activity of other users.
From my standpoint, you have done a lot when it comes to bringing a social interaction to any site or page. What is next with the Me.dium project?
Thanks for the vote of confidence! That's definitely been our goal. I think as far as the next evolution goes, we need to really refine a bunch of things on the User Interface side to make it much more understandable and usable. Surfing with your friends in Me.dium still takes a bit too much of a learning curve from our perspective and adding a bunch of new features before the current version of Me.dium is a bit clearer and easier to use is probably just going to muddy the waters a bit.
When and where does Me.dium become a profitable business?
Working on setting that meeting right now. I'll shoot over the coordinates and meet you there! :)
In all seriousness, were working hard to package the data that our users share in a valuable way right now. Based on all market data we have, it's not too far out at the moment. The key for us will be making sure that our users know how we are creating value with their shared data so the process is clear and users know exactly what we are getting in return for whatever they choose to share with us.
As far as Firefox extensions go, what separates Me.dium from the rest of the pack as a must have addon to any browser?
That's an easy one. Today's browsing experience is simply way too solitary. Me.dium makes the entire web social. By connecting you in real time to all your friends online, Me.dium is the only way to get all the benefits of your social interactions from the real world in your online world.
Unlike social networks, Me.dium isn't just a collection of pages where you post information about yourself and send your friends messages. Me.dium is a social browsing add-on that transforms the entire web into a social experience. Navigate around the entire web with people you care about. Bump into your friends and interact with the crowds, wherever they are.
Me.dium allows you to truly surf with friends for the first time:
- Watch YouTube vids together and share them with your friends in real time.
- Cruise Flickr or Facebook pics with your friends.
- Cruise the best shopping sites and shop together like your in the store with your friends.
Surfing the web has been a private and solitary activity for too long. Just like in the real world, you have more fun when you can share your experiences with friends. Me.dium has redefined what it means to surf the web by bringing you and your friends together in a true social experience. That's what separates Me.dium from the rest of the pack.

What does our slogan, "The Lake Effect Everyone Loves" mean? What is the "Lake Effect" and why is it so important?
What we call the "Lake Effect" is the moderating effect that Lake Michigan has on the climate of West Michigan, and it is what makes grape growing possible. There is a narrow band right along the shore where cold tender grape varieties can be successfully grown. Most people who live around here know the Lake Effect as heavy winter snowfall. But we know the Lake Effect as milder winter temperatures leading to great Michigan wine.

Work, for the Night is Coming
A review of Life Work by Donald Hall
"What is the secret of life?" the poet Donald Hall once asked the eighty-year-old sculptor Henry Moore. "With anyone else," Hall commented, "the answer would have begun with an ironic laugh," but Henry Moore answered the question in straight-forward, pragmatic terms:
The secret of life is to have a task, something you devote your entire life to, something you bring everything to, every minute of the day for your whole life. And the most important thing isit must be something you cannot possibly do!"
Now fifteen years after that interview, Hall has attempted to answer his own impossible but provocative question. His engrossing new book, Life Work, is difficult to classify but impossible to put down. Part essay, part autobiography, part family history, the volume straddles commercial genres.
Described on its most literal level, Life Work is a sustained meditation on work as the key to personal happiness. Written over a period of three months in 1992 (when its author was 63 years old), the book moves forward in undated daily entries. Hall discusses his life and work while constantly comparing his own activities and attitudes with those of his parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents. Although the book unfolds like a writer's journal, it never feels like a private diary. Indeed the book so successfully creates a sense of Hall's inner life in all its intricate dailiness that Life Work reads most of all like a first-person psychological novel with a poet named Donald Hall as its protagonist.
Hall deepens the novelistic effect by rooting his narrative in a real place, Eagle Pond Farm in Danbury, New Hampshire. (The location will be familiar to readers of the author's popular memoirs like Seasons at Eagle Pond.) Inheriting the family farm from his grandparents, Hall moved there in 1975 with his second wife, the poet Jane Kenyon. Giving up the security of academic tenure, Hall took the opportunity to reinvent his life. Content in a small circle of friends and family, he centered his new existence on the labor he loved mostwriting.
Many men attempt to create new, more fulfilling lives in middle ageusually with unimpressive results. In Hall's case, however, something marvelous happened. In New Hampshire his work deepened. Long an accomplished poet, he now became an irreplaceable one. By fifty most poets have their best work behind them. Hall's verse grew better with each volume, culminating in The One Day (1988), a book-length poem published on his sixtieth birthday, which ranks as one of the few unquestionable masterpieces in contemporary American poetry.
Hall's prose also developed. Always a smart and snappy stylist, he now seemed to slow down his narrative line slightlyjust enough to catch the often evanescent human sense of each situation. His incisive literary essays continued to be required reading for poets, but Hall's particular talents ultimately proved to be for the memoir, a genre in which he has few living equals. In his hands the memoir is only partially an autobiographical genre. He pours both his full critical intelligence and poetic sensibility into the form. His best books like Fathers Playing Catch with Sons (1985), a celebration of baseball, Seasons at Eagle Pond (1987), a mixture of nature writing and autobiography, and Their Ancient Glittering Eyes, a 1992 expansion of his 1978 collection of literary portraits, Remembering Poets, are all surprisingly different. Hall broadened his range as well as achieved greater depth.
Life Work is not only the latest in this distinguished series of memoirs: it is also the book that shares the secrets of how Hall managed his mid-life transition from minor to major artist. As the book's title suggests, part of his secret is hard work -- passionate, constant, and uncomplaining. The other was the good fortune or good sense to plant his new life on his grandparent's farm where nature, memory, and tradition nourished his imagination.
Hall's considerable literary skill is demonstrated in how appealing he makes his unabashedly workaholic life appear. He is by any standard a driven man. He rises at 4:30 a.m., and by 10:00 a.m. he has spent at least four hours writing. With occasional breaks and brief recreations, he spends the rest of the day reading, revising, proofing, and writing. In the evening he watches baseball via satellite dish while dictating into a small tape recorder some of the five thousand letters he writes every year. A life of extraordinary discipline? Definitely not, Hall insists. His life is one of happiness and self-indulgence. Early on he realized that "because I loved my work it was as if I did not work at all."
When genuine artists discuss their working lives, they often alternate between sublime speculation and practical specifics. Hall proves no exception. Life Work intermittently grapples with ideas about work's place in society at large. When Hall examines his native New England, he congently weaves his family history into a broader historical fabric. Occasionally, however, Hall unexpectedly lurches into ideological issues. A well-intentioned digression on feminism, Emile Durkheim, and Karl Marx founders overloaded with unassimilated data and windy generalizations.
More convincing is Hall's practical advice on how he manages to publish a yearly average of four books ("counting revised editions of old books," he adds modestly) plus numerous poems, essays, articles and book reviews, not to mention the five thousand letters. Productivity is in itself no recommendation for a writer; most hacks are prolific. But Hall's ability to write splendidly as well as plenteously makes his candid advice worth noting.
"I love being a writer," the late novelist Peter DeVries once quipped, "what I can't stand is the paperwork." Hall would agree. Two secrets of his productivity are delegation and dictation. He delegates the inessential but time-consuming paperworktyping, fact checking, and the liketo free up more time for real writing. He dictates whatever possible and employs two to three typists at a time to transcribe it. All writers will find his remarks on dictationthe technique by which both Stendhal and James created some of their best workparticularly interesting.
Halfway through Life Work the high spirited narrative takes a sudden turn. Hall discovers he has liver cancer. We share the agonizing tests and diagnosis. The book stops for two and a half weeks while he recuperates from surgery. Faced with the news that his chances of living five more years are only one out of three, Hall's tone becomes more urgent. His meditations and memories darken.
And yet what one notices most vividly is how consistent Hall's ideas and attitudes are both before and after this death sentence. His commitment to work always came from a sense of his own mortality. The book's epigraph from the Gospel of John summarizes his theme. "We must work . . . " Jesus said, because "night comes, when no man can work." Life Work is in prose, but the book reflects a lyric poet's sense that time and death are always a writer's real subjects.
Hall's stark confrontation with his own mortality, however, does not leave him self-absorbed. The prospect of his own extinction increases rather than contracts his humanity. His imagination and memory turn increasingly to other people, especially his eighty-nine-year-old mother, who defiantly keeps her own house despite multiple infirmities.

Spaghetti Casserole
This Baked Spaghetti Casserole is SOOOO GOOD! Seriously! It might be my favorite baked spaghetti recipe on the blog. This was recommended by my parents. They ate it and just raved about it. We had to give it a try!
This recipe makes enough for 6 people. I was skeptical because this was made in an 8x8 pan, but it was enough for 6 servings. We ate this for dinner and lunch the next day. I froze the last two pieces and we ate them on another night. It tasted great every time!
Spaghetti Casserole
(Printable Recipe)
7 oz spaghetti
1 egg
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (green can)
1 cup non-fat cottage cheese
1 lb sausage
2 Tbsp dried minced onion flakes
1 garlic clove, minced
1 (14.5 oz) crushed tomatoes
1 (6 oz) can tomato paste
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 350. Lightly spray an 8x8 pan with cooking spray.
Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Drain. Toss spaghetti with egg and parmesan cheese. Place in 8x8 pan. Spread cottage cheese over spaghetti mixture.
Cook sausage, onion and garlic until sausage crumbles and is no longer pink. Drain. Add sausage back to skillet and stir in tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar and oregano. Cook until thoroughly heated. Spread over cottage cheese mixture. Top with mozzarella cheese.
Bake for 25-30 minutes.

Thank you - looks and sound delish!ReplyDelete
It does look seriously good.ReplyDelete
Out tomorrow. Have a happy weekend.
Yum, I love recipes like this, especially on the days I have to work. The flavors just get better and better.ReplyDelete
I just tried your baked cream cheese spaghetti the other night, and it was so good. I will have to try this one too!ReplyDelete
Do you use bulk Italian sausage or regular breakfast sausage?ReplyDelete
I'll be trying this out soon! My mom has been talking about baked spaghetti for like the last week haha, I'll pass it along to her as well!ReplyDelete
Jennifer - I just used regular breakfast sausage because that is what I had on hand. I think Italian Sausage would be delicious too!ReplyDelete
YUM! This looks like dinner tonight!ReplyDelete
Do you think subbing Ricotta Cheese instead of cottage cheese would work? I just can't bring myself to even look at cottage cheese - silly, I know!ReplyDelete
Vicky - ricotta would be a great substitute for the cottage cheese.ReplyDelete
Sounds fabulous! My kids don't like baked spaghetti, tetrazzini, etc. I don't know what the hell is wrong with them ;)ReplyDelete
If I made this and froze it, how long and at what temp would you recommend I cook it to heat it?ReplyDelete
Stacey - I would add about 10-15 minutes to the baking time and keep the temperature at 350.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks! Love your blog. These are my favorite recipes on Ziplist.Delete
Make this tonight, Ladies! I made it Saturday for dinner and it will knock your socks off. I did make it with Johnsonville Italian Sausage and both tomato products had Italian herbs and I substituted dried Italian seasoning for the plain Oregano. It is wonderful and your family will love it. Thank you Steph for such a good recipe.ReplyDelete
Any way possible you could re post your cream cheese spaghetti casserole recipe?? Or email out to me.. firstname.lastname@example.com
Tried this tonight and it was a big hit. A little spicey for me with the Italian sausage so will try half sausage and half lean ground beef next time but will definitely make again.ReplyDelete
Hi! This looks great...on the post it calls for a 14.5 oz. can of crushed tomatoes, but when I printed off the printable version it calls for a 14.5 oz. can of stewed tomatoes? Which one is it?? Thanks!ReplyDelete
Beth - I used stewed tomatoes but ended up crushing them in the food processor because I don't like chunks. So to answer your question - the photo has crushed tomatoesReplyDelete
I made this tonight and it was delicious, even my hard to please hubby liked it, and even better my 2 year old picky eater gobbled it up! I used Purdue brand Hot Italian Turkey Sausage (casings removed), low fat ricotta (not a cottage cheese fan), and whole wheat spaghetti. This will go in our regular rotation for sure!ReplyDelete
I actually made something similar to this just the other day but instead of cottage cheese I used sour cream and no onion flakes just chopped onions. It was fantastic!! :)ReplyDelete
I've made this recipe twice lately and it is amazing! How do you think it would turn out if I put it in the crockpot for half a day, maybe 4 hours?ReplyDelete
Stephanie, I already have spaghetti and sauce made and mixed together from last night. Do you think if I reheated it and mixed in the egg, cottage cheese, etc. that it would turn out ok? Thanks!ReplyDelete

French operas offer amour for Valentine's galaWritten by Michael Miller | Editor in Chief Emeritus | email@example.com
Selections from "Carmen," "Faust" and other French operas will spice up Valentine's Day during the Toledo Opera Gala at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 13 at the Toledo Museum of Art Peristyle.
"April in Paris" is the theme for this year's gala concert, which features "selections from some of the greatest and most popular French operas, including Carmen and Faust, both of which have been staged in their entirety by the Toledo Opera in recent seasons," said Thomas Conlin, principal conductor. "The program also allows us to present brief excerpts from some of the lesser-known French operas like Thais, Benvenuto Cellini and The Pearl Fishers."
The Toledo Opera has been hosting annual gala concerts for decades, Conlin said. They differ from staged opera productions in that they focus solely on the music-singing and orchestral accompaniment — and do not include scenery, costumes, acting or special effects.
Nearly 150 singers and instrumentalists will perform during the gala, which features the Toledo Opera Chorus and the Toledo Symphony Orchestra.
According to a news release, soprano Kerri Marcinko, a Cleveland native, will be heard in the roles of Marguerite in Faust and in the title role in Carmen. Mark McCrory, bass, and Gaston Rivero, tenor, will sing one of "the most familiar duets in the operatic repertoire," "Au fond du temple saint" ("We met at the holy temple") from The Pearl Fishers.
"Most of the selections at the Opera Gala feature solo voices and/or the chorus, accompanied by a large orchestra," Conlin said.
Ticket prices range from $25 to $80. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit www.toledoopera.org or call (419) 418-0011.
Immediately following the gala concert, attendees will have an opportunity to mingle with performers and enjoy appetizers and a cash bar during an after-party at the Toledo Club, 245 14th St. Tickets are $50 per person. To RSVP, e-mail email@example.com or call (419) 255-7464, ext. 5.
