Directions: Wharton State Forest has two offices - one at Batsto Village and one at Atsion Recreation Area. Batsto Village is located on Route 542, eight miles east of Hammonton. Atsion is on Route 206, eight miles north of Hammonton.
Wharton State Forest is the largest single tract of land within the New Jersey State Park System. It is also the site of Batsto Village, a former bog iron and glassmaking industrial center from 1766 to 1867 that currently reflects the agricultural and commercial enterprises that existed here during the late 19th century.
Throughout Wharton are rivers and streams for canoeing, hiking trails (including a major section of the Batona Trail), miles of unpaved roads for mountain biking and horseback riding and numerous lakes, ponds and fields ideal for wildlife observation. Bald eagles, red-tailed hawks, marsh hawks, ospreys, great blue herons, swans, screech owls, great-horned owls, bluebirds, hummingbirds, purple martins, goldfinch, turkeys, beavers, river otters, fox and deer are only some of the wildlife the alert visitor can see.
Through the Carry-In/Carry-Out Program you can help us keep your parks clean and beautiful by carrying out the trash you carry in. Bags are provided throughout the site. Thank you for your cooperation and remember to recycle.

The Batsto Visitor Center within Wharton State Forest is closed, Monday, January 23, 2017 due to loss of electricity and telephone service. In addition, no camping requests for this evening will be accepted.

Batsto Village
Batsto Village is the site of a former bog iron and glass making industrial center (1766 - 1867) that currently reflects the agricultural and commercial enterprises that existed here during the late 19th century. This Pine Barrens village consists of thirty-three historic buildings and structures including the Batsto Mansion, gristmill, sawmill, general store, workers' homes and post office. Watch the video "Batsto Stories in the Pines" (w/subtitles)

Teacher Resources
Batsto Through the Years: A Teaching Resource (PDF 3.84 MB) was recently developed to help educators explain the importance of the New Jersey Pinelands and the lifestyles of the people who lived and worked there. It is the result of collaboration between the State Park Service and the Batsto Citizens Committee, Inc.
Topics range from the environment and early Pinelands industry to daily life in the village. The suggested follow-up activities help students make connections between life in the 18th and 19th centuries and the present day. Critical thinking activities challenge students to examine their own community and evaluate how society deals with preservation of historic buildings and open spaces.
In conjunction with the manual, Batsto Village offers seasonal educational programs and interpreter-led tours. Age appropriate presentations and a "child friendly" museum greet our visitors. For schools unable to travel to Batsto Village, staff and volunteers also offer in-school presentations. For more information about Historic Batsto Village, contact the Batsto Village Visitor Center at (609) 561-0024.
Harrisville Village Video Podcast
Take a tour of historic Harrisville, the remains of a company town located in Wharton State Forest. Isolated deep in the Pinelands, Harrisville is a genuine ghost town from the late 1800's. Once a flourishing village, it was abandoned in 1891 after the driving force of the community, the great paper mill, went out of business.

Key stops on this tour include:
Atsion Mansion
The Atsion Mansion was built in 1826 as a summer home for Samuel Richards. Richards, who a prominent ironmaster from Philadelphia, was the operator of the Atsion furnace along the Mullica River. After Richards died in 1842, the property was passed down through his heirs, and finally sold to another Philadelphia merchant, Maurice Raleigh. The Raleigh family was the last to use the mansion as a residence. When Joseph Wharton purchased the property in 1892, he used the mansion for packing and storage for his cranberry production. The state acquired the property in 1955.
Today the mansion appears as it was back in 1826. As such, it does not contain plumbing, electricity, or heat other than fireplaces. The home, unfurnished, is offered as an architectural tour, reflecting on the Greek Revival style of the building.
Tours of the Atsion Mansion are available seasonally. Please call the Atsion Office at (609) 268-0444 for more information.

No backpacks full of coloring books or epi-pens stuffed in my purse, just me, my camera (which I barely used by the way, hence the slew of iPhone and Instagram photos in this post) and a single carry-on bag.
On top of leaving behind the troops, I didn't know a single soul who was going to be there, unless of course you count blog stalking as "knowing." I mean, I know Jenny Rosenstrach and Joy the Baker just like I know Barack Obama and Adele. I'm relatively certain none of them are coming to my next birthday party. So liberating, yes. Terrifying? A little.
In the days leading up to the conference I scoured the web looking for reviews from other bloggers who'd attended BlogHer Food in the past and found them for the most part really helpful. And encouraging. So, I thought it only fair that as a first time semi-terrified attendee with one BlogHer Food conference officially under my belt, I should offer my own two cents.
Here's what I learned.
1. Listen more than you talk. This is especially true for newbies and small-time bloggers like me. Presumably you are there to learn. Sure the business card do-si-do is important but keep in mind you are surrounded by tons of enthusiastic, experienced bloggers who are not necessarily your target blog audience and that's totally okay. Welcome their knowledge in all areas, not only blogging. Within one 10 minute span I learned:
- The BEST use for expired epi-pens: Have caregivers, teachers, grandparents, etc. practice injecting the expired pens into an orange to make sure they know how to execute in an emergency - brilliant!
- There's a Food Allergy Bloggers Conference coming up in Las Vegas later this year
- The QuickPix app has a much smaller (and therefore superior) delay compared to the iPhone camera app. I've already made the switch. You should too.
- Simply installing Dropbox on my phone has made it so I can stop constantly emailing photos to myself for use on this blog and elsewhere.
2. It's okay to be alone. Even at a big intimidating conference where everyone greets everyone like a busload of reunited summer campers (with the fortuitous addition of booze) and they're all having the best time ever. Even then.
See, here I am being alone, hiding in a bathroom stall to take a picture of myself to send to the KC kids. It's a glamorous life I lead.
Seriously, think about it. You don't constantly surround yourself with a clown car of friends during every waking moment of a regular day. And if you do they probably won't be friends much longer. Downtime in your room is okay. So is wandering around the hotel, eating a meal, or exploring a new city by yourself. No one is looking at you thinking who is that weirdo and where are all her friends? In fact they're probably not thinking that much about you at all.
3. Ask questions. Don't know what SEO is? Ask someone. That is why you're here.
4. Just because it's right in front of you doesn't mean you have to eat it. Not kidding. Your pants need to fit to get you home.
5. Suck it up and speak. No matter how intimidated you are by the famous beautiful wealthy blogger standing next to you, put on your big girl underpants and say hello. Chances are decent you aren't the biggest fool to ever make an approach. At least that's what I'm telling myself. In any event, ask for the photo. You won't regret it.
6. Make time for the expo. Get to know the sponsors. They're nice and they want to talk to you. Try new products, give compliments, enter the contests. Without them the conference wouldn't exist.
7. Say yes. Yes to samples. Yes to excursions. Yes to exchanging business cards. Yes to invitations for a drink at the bar. Yes to share a taxi. Yes to try a bite of someone's amazing pork belly taco. Yes to party invitations if you're lucky enough to get one. Just yes. You never know where it will take you. In fact, it might just get you eating hot dogs and drinking gluten-free beer with the masterminds behind FrannyCakes.com and Freedible.com at a GlutenIsMyBitch.com book party.
Or it could get you here
Maria's Taco Xpress |
Whip In, Austin |
So see, you just never know until you go.
8. Sleep well in the days preceding the conference. Sleep on the plane. Sleep afterward. There won't be a whole lot of sleep during the conference.
9. Get dressed like you mean it. Sure there will be bloggers running around in jeans, sneakers, and t-shirts and that's totally fine particularly if your blog is www.icookinjeans.com and you have 3 million twitter followers, four cookbooks, and a television show. Keep in mind, however, there will also be plenty of beautiful, fit, adorable bloggers in tailored dresses, heels, and bright trendy necklaces. Go ahead and give yourself the mental boost of looking your best. It'll help tremendously as you balance your platter of croissants and bacon at the table of bubbly, young, hot, tan healthy living bloggers.
My attempt at fashion |
There you have it. BlogHer Food 2013 in a nutshell. Well, my nutshell anyway. If you're on the fence or feeling "too small" for a big blogging conference I'm here to tell you, you're not. Yes, Molly Wizenberg was there and Ree Drummond made an appearance at the closing party but I also met several bloggers who were just starting out...or had not even started a blog yet at all. And if you do decide to attend next year and are feeling like no one wants to talk to you...just come find me! I'll be the one hiding in the bathroom with my iPhone.

In it, but not of it. TPM DC
Progressive Group Calls On Democrats To Ignore Deadline
"Democrats hold the cards, and our leverage increases in less than 10 hours if we hold strong," the email, signed by the group's co-founders Adam Green and Stephanie Taylor, read.
Progressive anger over the tax portion of the emerging deal was raised on Monday morning by liberal Sen. Tom Harkin (D-IA), who argued that Democrats might not sign on to a deal that only raises taxes on those making $400,000 or more. "As I see this thing developing -- quite frankly, as I've said before -- no deal is better than a bad deal, and this looks like a very bad deal, the way this is shaking up," he said on the Senate floor Monday.
Harkin later told CNN, "They think Republicans may object? We may object."
Here's the full email by the Progressive Change Campaign Committee:
Hill friends... On behalf of nearly a million progressives nationwide, we wanted to emphasize that this is a moment to stand on principle.There has always been room for negotiation, but throughout this debate progressives have had 2 bright-line positions: Tax rates on those making $250,000 must go up to at least the Clinton rates and there must be no cuts to Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security benefits.
The president ran on and won on $250,000 twice. Voters across the country overwhelmingly agree with the $250,000 threshold (see http://2014polling.com). And in real human costs, the billions lost by raising the threshold to $400,000 will come out of the pockets of grandparents and working families across the nation. Meanwhile, individuals making over $30,000 per month would get a tax break.Â
Democrats hold the cards, and our leverage increases in less than 10 hours if we hold strong.
The public is paying attention, and we urge all Democrats to stand on principle at this moment. The current deal violates progressive principles. It should be opposed.
Adam Green and Stephanie Taylor, Co-Founders, Progressive Change Campaign Committee
The memo also included a TPM piece from Friday in which Green is quoted urging Democrats to hold their "bright line position" on taxes and entitlements in fiscal cliff negotiations.

SPARC-like protein 1 (SPARCL1; also known as SC1, high endothelial venule protein, or hevin) is an extracellular matrix-associated, secreted glycoprotein belonging to the secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC) family of matricellular proteins. It contains three conserved structural domains that are implicated in the regulation of cell adhesion, migration, and proliferation. SPARCL1 is expressed during embryogenesis and tissue remodeling and is especially prominent in brain and vasculature. Its down-regulation in a number of cancers and the possibility of its functional compensation by SPARC has led to recent interest in hevin as a tumor suppressor and regulator of angiogenesis. SPARCL1 has antiadhesive properties, and loss of SPARCL1 expression is associated with increased proliferative activity and cell cycle progression. It is suggested that it may influence multiple cellular processes during distinct stages of brain development and function. In addition, SPARCL1 can influence the function of astroglial cells in the developing and mature central nervous system (CNS).

The Glass Looks Half Full To Financial Officers
Gene KoretzCassandras who see a double-dip recession and a slumping stock market ahead should take heart. Corporate America's financial strategists are forecasting a slow, uninterrupted recovery in 1992. That's the mildly reassuring message from a survey of the chief financial officers of the business week 1000 by A.T. Kearney Inc., a New York consulting firm. Says Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. cfo Oren G. Shaffer: "There's a slight upturn, and it starts this quarter. The economy has stopped searching for a bottom."
Looking ahead, the cfos think the economy will grow by 2.5% in 1992 (table), enough to warrant a 6.2% pickup in capital spending. And stock prices will hang in there, with the Dow Jones industrial average inching up to 3,287. Meanwhile, the slow recovery promises to keep both inflation and interest rates restrained. Consumer prices will rise less than 4%, the cfos say, and long rates should rise only 30 basis points by the end of 1992, compared with a still-modest 130 basis-point increase in three-month T-bill rates (from 4.7% now to 6% next year). That nudge-up implies that the dollar won't strengthen enough to hurt the competitiveness of U.S. exports overseas.
On the bad-news front, 1992 will see continued belt-tightening via layoffs and other measures. General Electric Co., for one, has already announced a cut of 1,500 jobs-almost 5% of its work force-through the end of next year because the airline industry is in a slump and military outlays are down. Says Earl S. Landesman, a Kearney principal: "The larger the company, the more they'll want to squeeze overhead."
While they aren't pressing the panic button, the cfos appear to be concerned about the U.S. domestic economy's lack of resilience. Indeed, many seem to be pinning their hopes for faster growth beyond 1992 on renewed stimulus from overseas. "Look for when the European and Asian economies recover," says ge cfo Dennis D. Dammerman. "They'll be able to help us out."

Rear of camera controls
On the right side of the rear of the camera is a clear area for your thumb to grip, the only button which is immediately 'under your thumb' is the AE/FE-lock button (*). The (metal) exposure mode dial is positioned in such a way as to be easy to turn with your thumb. Below this is the flip-out LCD and to the right of that the the four way controller and a group of four buttons. At the top left of the camera rear are the macro and manual focus buttons.
Exposure Modes
Automatic Exposure Camera has complete control over exposure, point-and-shoot operation, the majority of manual features are disabled, you can't alter exposure compensation, ISO or use RAW mode. You can set flash mode, macro and image size / quality. |
P | Program Auto Exposure Very similar to AUTO exposure but you have access to all the normal manual controls, can set the ISO, exposure compensation, use AE lock, bracketing etc. The G6 has program shift (although it's not immediately obvious), activate shift by pressing the * (AE/FE-Lock) button, then turn the main dial to select from various equivalent exposures. Example (pressing * metered 1/50 sec, F4.0): 1/30 sec, F4.5 (turn left) 1/40 sec, F4.0 (turn left) 1/50 sec, F4.0 (metered) 1/60 sec, F3.5 (turn right) 1/80 sec, F3.2 (turn right) |
Tv | Shutter Priority Auto Exposure In this mode you select the shutter speed and the camera will calculate the correct aperture depending on metered exposure, exposure compensation and ISO sensitivity. Shutter speed is displayed on the LCD / EVF and display panel, turn the main dial to select different shutter speeds. Available shutter speeds: 1/2000, 1/1600, 1/1250, 1/1000, 1/800, 1/640, 1/500, 1/400, 1/320, 1/250, 1/200, 1/160, 1/125, 1/100, 1/80, 1/60, 1/50, 1/40, 1/30, 1/25, 1/20, 1/15, 1/13, 1/10, 1/8, 1/6, 1/5, 1/4, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.8, 1, 1.3, 1.6, 2, 2.5, 3.2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 13, 15 secs (Shutter speeds of 1.3 seconds or slower will enable the cameras noise reduction system) |
Av | Aperture Priority Auto Exposure In this mode you select the aperture and the camera will calculate the correct shutter speed depending on metered exposure, exposure compensation and ISO sensitivity. Aperture is displayed on the LCD / EVF and display panel, turn the main dial to select different apertures. Available apertures: Wide: F2.0, F2.2, F2.5, F2.8, F3.2, F3.5, F4.0, F4.5, F5.0, F5.6, F6.3, F7.1, F8.0 Tele: F3.0, F3.5, F4.0, F4.5, F5.0, F5.6, F6.3, F7.1, F8.0 |
M | Full Manual Exposure |
Custom Settings 1 & 2 Recalls saved settings from any of the P, Tv, Av or M exposure modes. This restores all parameters applied at the time of saving including zoom and focus distance (if manual focus). |
Aperture / Shutter speed limitations
Because the G6 (like many other compact digital cameras) has a combined aperture / shutter mechanism it can only achieve the very fastest shutter speeds with a relatively small aperture. These limitations are detailed below.
Zoom position |
Aperture |
Max. Shutter Speed |
Wide angle (35 mm equiv.) |
F2.0 - F3.5 | 1/1250 sec |
F4.0 - F8.0 | 1/2000 sec | |
Telephoto (140 mm equiv.) |
F3.0 - F5.0 | 1/1250 sec |
F5.6 - F8.0 | 1/2000 sec |
Scene Exposure Modes
The exposure modes described below are designed to be easy to use camera presets. Macro focus, image adjustments (ISO, contrast, sharpening, saturation), AEB, AE Lock, FE Lock, metering and RAW mode can not be selected in these modes.
Portrait In this mode apertures are kept as large as possible (small F number) to produce a blurred background to help define the subject in a portrait shot. Note: Macro focus is available in Portrait mode. |
Landscape In this mode the flash is by default disabled (although you can enable it) and focus is locked at infinity. Apertures are kept as small as possible (large F numbers) to produce the largest possible depth of field. Macro focus is also disabled. Designed to be used for taking landscape shots. |
Night Scene Known on other cameras as "Slow Sync Flash". Put simply in this mode slow shutter speeds are used to capture a dimly lit background (buildings at night for example) and the flash fires briefly to illuminate a foreground subject. Note you can select between 1st or 2nd curtain sync. |
Other Exposure Modes
Stitch Assist Designed to make shooting of panorama / stitch shots easier. You have a choice of five different stitch modes: left-right, right-left, down-up, up-down or 4-frames in a square. The display changes to show previously shot frames in the sequence to help alignment of each frame. Exposure and White Balance are locked to the first frame. |
Movie Mode 640 x 480, 10 fps, max 30 seconds (including audio) 320 x 240, 15 fps, max 3 minutes (including audio) 160 x 120, 15 fps, max 3 minutes (including audio) |

Vitamin D eggs hit store shelves
A Fraser Valley company is marketing new Vitamin D-infused eggs as a way to combat the winter blues in sun-starved B.C.
"Spending less time exposed to the sun under the gloom of winter skies, we need to replace the Vitamin D we normally get from the sun," stated Frank Born, president and founder of Born 3 Specialty Eggs. "The new Born 3 Vitamin D egg is an easy way to get essential nutrients in meals and snacks."
The addition of Vitamin D to the Omega 3, the high quality protein and the nutrients already found in the Born 3 eggs, make them a nutritious food product with just one Born 3 Vitamin D egg providing 50 per cent of our daily need.
Born 3 Vitamin D eggs come in distinctive paper cartons and are distributed by Abbotsford's Golden Valley Foods Ltd. to many stores throughout the province.
Born 3 Marketing Corp. is a specialty egg company based in the Fraser Valley, and their products include the original Omega 3 white and brown eggs and the new Omega 3 Vitamin D eggs.

New York police officers defy order to cut marijuana arrests
Survey shows nearly half of people charged with marijuana posession were not displaying the drug when they were stopped.
Police officers in New York are "manufacturing" criminal offenses by forcing people with small amounts of marijuana to reveal their drugs, according to a survey by public defenders.
Nearly half of New Yorkers picked up for small amounts of marijuana possession in recent months were not displaying the drug before they were stopped, the study shows, despite an order by New York police chief Ray Kelly that officers should not charge people in such circumstances.
The revelations will fuel criticisms of the NYPD's controversial "stop and frisk" policy, which opponents say is criminalising a generation of young people from ethnic minorities and leading to tensions between police and the public.
Scott Levy, an attorney campaigner at the Bronx Defenders, the legal and advocacy organization that led the survey, said: "This is clearly an illegal practice. And the fact that it hasn't stopped since Commissioner Kelly issued his memo, suggests there is a deep disconnect between what happens on the street and what the top brass in the NYPD are saying happens."
Under New York law, possession of 25g or less of marijuana is only a misdemeanor offense, a violation that brings a $100 fine. Only when the drugs are in public view are the police permitted to make an arrest for drug possession.
In September last year, Kelly issued an order to officers not to arrest people caught with small amounts of marijuana. But the number of those arrested increased after the order was made.
In all, about 50,000 people were arrested in 2011 for marijuana possession; some 30,000 of these came after police stops.
In August there were 2,486 arrests after police stops. In October – after the Kelly order – the NYPD arrested 2,661 people on the same charge. That number dipped slightly in November and December, but was still higher than the same months in previous years.
Until now, no one has been able to tell how many of those arrested may have occurred only after a police officer compelled a suspect to pull the drugs out of his or her pocket, which gave them cause for arrest.
To get more detailed data, the Bronx Defenders teamed up with attorneys from the law firm Cleary, Gottlieb, Steen and Hamilton to review police records and personal accounts from 517 people arrested for marijuana possession in the borough in the months before and after the Kelly order.
According to the survey, the percentage of illegal stop-and-frisks increased from 31% before the order to 44% after the order. Similarly, the percentage of manufactured misdemeanors increased from 33% to 44%.
One in three respondents said police had forced them to take the marijuana out of pockets or from under clothes and produce it into public view.
The NYPD did not respond to a request for comment. In the past, it has vigorously defended its policies, arguing that stop and frisks save lives.
But members of communities impacted by stop and frisks disagree, arguing that the policy has resulted in a form of institutionalized degradation that disproportionately impacts African American and Latino youth. They say the tactic leads to harassment and erodes trust between police and the public.
Darnell, who lives in the South Bronx who and requested his last name not be used, was stopped by the NYPD as he was crossing 170th and Valentine streets last October. He said two officers patted him down but stopped short of searching him in public. Instead, they took Darnell back to the precinct and asked him to remove his pants and underwear.
"They went through everything, and finally found about $20 of marijuana in my hat," Darnell said. "They didn't give me no reason for stopping me in the first place." Darnell was held for 12 hours in the precinct and charged with a misdemeanor.
Vinci, another Bronx resident, tells of a more recent interaction with the NYPD the night before the 2012 Superbowl. "I was coming out of the store and the police stopped me" Vinci said. "I felt real awful you know, it was in front of everyone and I hadn't done anything wrong."
In Vinci's case the officers allegedly searched him on the street and took a small amount of marijuana from inside his pants. Vinci was locked up for 38 hours and released just in time to watch the final minutes of the game.
"It was a distressing experience," he said, " Makes you realize it can happen any time any place."
NYPD data on all stop and frisks conducted in 2011 reveals officers suspected just over half of the nearly 684,000 people stopped had drugs on them, and ended up arresting about one in ten on that count.
In some instances police specified they could smell marijuana or someone was actually smoking it in public. Other reasons police stopped people who they subsequently arrested for marijuana were "furtive movements," "suspicious bulges," "being in a high crime area" and "other."
Community activists have increasingly pushed back against the stop and frisk policy with public acts of civil disobedience. Beginning in October, a group calling itself the Stop Mass Incarceration Network launched a series of actions throughout the city with the support of Occupy Wall Street protesters.
Activists willfully subjected themselves to arrest outside a number of NYPD precincts in some of the most heavily impacted neighborhoods in the five boroughs.
Legal experts and criminal justice scholars have claimed that stop and frisks-and the drug arrests that often result from them-routinely lead to fourth amendment violations and serve as pipeline for the nation's bloated prison system.
Over the course of the last five years the NYPD has been named in three federal lawsuits over its application of stop and frisk practices, with one suit filed as recently as this week.
"If the Kelly order had worked, if his directive had remotely worked," said Levy, "these types of unconstitutional arrests just shouldn't still be happening so frequently."

Beginning the day on wobbly feet, the markets found strength late in the morning and closed in positive territory across the board. After flirting with them so much, the S&P 500 and Dow are close to being in an official relationship with record highs. The Nasdaq is at its highest level since 2000.
At the close: DJIA: +0.49%, S&P 500: +0.15%, NASDAQ: +0.33%.
Here are three stories that helped shape the markets today:
1) The House of Representatives passed a short-term increase to the debt ceiling. The measure, proposed at the end of last week and anticipated to glide through the GOP-controlled House, will make its way to the Democratically-controlled Senate, where leaders have said they will pass it without alteration. From there, President Barack Obama has indicated that he will also sign the bill.
A short-term fix has removed a lot of tension from the markets, but spending cuts still remain in focus for the short term, and the debt crisis facing America will take years to resolve. Market participants can only hope that Congressional leaders will use this opportunity to avoid a damaging last-minute solution… (Read more.)

is there a link so i can dl Wiisx beta 1.0 i looked for it but cant find one, everything worked for my tales of eternia game that i play from time to time, but since i updated to 2.1 it still works but with some issues with the dialog audio during events as well as battle audio which slows down the fps pretty bad. if not can i have a link to try out the usb mod 2.0, the thread that had the link is dead.
Google wiisx beta 1.
The first link is wiisx beta 1 mod 3, which has usb support.
hmm odd. got the boot.dol file, added it to the root of sd, once loaded got a DSI error. clicked both standered/analog and Dynarec/Interpeter and nada. guess im stuck with 2.1 w/o audio unitl next release.
If there is a way to fix this let me know and ill give it a shot
whoops bad typing on my part. Yes the boot.dol was in the SD:apps/wiisx/boot.dol and i do have the bios. I tried again and this time it was able to find the bios and i got past the DSI error. after slecting the controller and between dynamic and interpreter I manage to select the games file, at first i only had two files since tales of eternia is a 3 disk game but testing only disk 1 which is why i have only 2 files one bin and other cue, i tried both but got DSI error. I then used image burn to convert those 2 files into an image and a mds after reading that 1.0 can only read .img files after i did that and clicked the image file on wiisx it loaded showing the statue but after the word execute it just stays theres and doesnt load.
only thing i havent tried in burn all files into one image lol, which no way i know it will not work.
Do these emulators have support for Gamecube / Wii Classic controllers? I am thinking about installing the SNES, NES, GENESIS, and N64 emulators. Thanks, Joe

I was getting onto 215 from Foothill and I get cut off by this blue Hyundai with a Yahoo logo on the back. Obviously he had seen my big drum and feather on my little E30 BMW and wanted to make make a statement. After seeing his affiliation, I just give him a thumbs down for about a block, making sure he saw me. Obviously he did because he would not let me pass. Now, I've done plenty of work to my brave little E30 so I just said to myself: "I'll get this GD Zoob on the freeway" So we get on the freeway and I just can't make a move and I am stuck behind this guy until about 3900 South when I finally get past him. As I am looking over at him, I see that it was my all time least favorite mission companion, Elder Joseph Nielsen. Instant hatred came back to me and made this little chase scene so much sweeter. I have a 5% tint on my windows so he didn't see that it was me... Wait for it. This gets so much better. I miss my opportunity to pass him because I was struck at who it was in the car, so I pull back behind him and continue drafting him. He has another car ahead of him so we're movie along at a paltry 80 MPH until we hit the turn at 6200 South when that car changes lanes. Nielsen stomps the pedal and we're goin 110 out of the turn. We get to about 115 MPH about a mile away from the offramp and my radar detector/jammer goes CRAZY. So I hit the brakes, make a couple of quick lane changes and hop off the freeway. As I am exiting I see the Cherries and Berries light up in pursuit of a blue Hyundai with a Yahoo logo on the back. I made a quick U turn and got back on the freeway and drove past the scene of the UHP walking up to Nielsens car at a lovely 65 MPH. GO UTES!!! BEAT UCLA!!!

I was previously playing a Prov1X as my primary ball and a ProV1 as my backup ball for faster greens during tournaments. I sweep the ball and he recommended that play the ProV1 all the time and stop switching and to develop more consistency with spin which I was lacking. It appears that it is best to go to the professionals and let them do their thing. Thanks titleist. Quote Reply

Famous Short Sound Poems. Short Sound Poetry by Famous Poets. A collection of the all-time best Sound short poems
Old well, a fish leaps-- dark sound.
Coolness-- the sound of the bell as it leaves the bell.
Winter solitude-- in a world of one color the sound of wind.
Awake at night-- the sound of the water jar cracking in the cold.
The mellow touch of music most doth wound The soul, when it doth rather sigh, than sound.
The Dust behind I strove to join Unto the Disk before -- But Sequence ravelled out of Sound Like Balls upon a Floor --
Peace is a fiction of our Faith -- The Bells a Winter Night Bearing the Neighbor out of Sound That never did alight.
Where Roses would not dare to go, What Heart would risk the way -- And so I send my Crimson Scouts To sound the Enemy --
Listen. . With faint dry sound, Like steps of passing ghosts, The leaves, frost-crisp'd, break from the trees And fall.
The Sun in reigning to the West Makes not as much of sound As Cart of man in road below Adroitly turning round That Whiffletree of Amethyst
Whenever Auntie moves around, Her dresses make a curious sound, They trail behind her up the floor, And trundle after through the door.
Though we parted be; If on Mount Inaba's peak I should hear the sound Of the pine trees growing there, Back at once I'll make my way.
M was a millWhich stood on a hill,And turned round and roundWith a loud hummy sound. m Useful old mill!
Useful old mill!
Sound, sound the clarion, fill the fife! To all the sensual world proclaim, One crowded hour of glorious life Is worth an age without a name.
I'm Sure every Word that you say is Absurd; I Say it's All Gummidge and Twaddle; You may Argue away till the 19th of May, But I don't like the Sound of the Moddle!
There was a Young Lady of Tyre,Who swept the loud chords of a lyre;At the sound of each sweep she enraptured the deep,And enchanted the city of Tyre.
There was an old person of Filey,Of whom his acquaintance spoke highly;He danced perfectly well, to the sound of a bell,And delighted the people of Filey.
See here an easy feast that knows no wound, That under hunger's teeth will needs be sound; A subtle harvest of unbounded bread, What would ye more? Here food itself is fed.
More astonishing to me than the lyrics made for you more amazing than the music composed for your death is the sound of the sobbing mourning you, Lord Vahan, chosen of God
Now that I know How passion warms little Of flesh in the mould, And treasure is brittle,-- I'll lie here and learn How, over their ground Trees make a long shadow And a light sound.
I saw on the walls of the city of Thous a bird hovering before the skull of Kai-Kawous. The bird said to the skull: Alas! what has become of the noise of thy glory and the sound of the clarion?
The mob within the heart Police cannot suppress The riot given at the first Is authorized as peace Uncertified of scene Or signified of sound But growing like a hurricane In a congenial ground.
O potter! be attentive, if thou possessest sound reason! How long wilt thou abase man in moulding his clay? It is the finger of Feridoun, the hand of Kai-Khosrou which you thus put upon your wheel.
They say, when the last trump shall sound its knell, Our Friend will sternly judge, and doom to hell. Can aught but good from perfect goodness come? Compose your trembling hearts, 'twill all be well.

Heritage Foundation Removes Unemployment Data From Budget Study
Update: William Beach, the Heritage analyst behind their budget study, tells Dave Weigel at Slate that they have updated their unemployment figures, which are now significantly higher. Under the new version, unemployment is 7.89% unemployment in 2012 (versus 6.4% in their first analysis) and 4.27% unemployment (versus 2.9% in the original) in 2020.
"We adjusted the full employment unemployment variable," Beach told Weigel. "Nothing else changes as a result of that, but the employment number changes."

Slaying shines light on 'logistical nightmare'
The Northway mobile home park where 9-year-old Aliahna Lemmon disappeared just before Christmas is a haven for sex offenders, with 14 of them living among the roughly 25 units.
While none of these men is accused of being involved in the girl's death in any way, Aliahna's killing and dismemberment put renewed focus on the state law that prohibits sex offenders from living within 1,000 feet of any school, park or child-care center.
In an area like Fort Wayne – full of parks, churches and a growing number of walking trails – the law creates small pockets where sex offenders can reside, areas that some dub as "sex offender ghettos."
Cpl. Jeff Shimkus of the Allen County Sheriff's Department finds this consequence increasingly troubling.
"It's bad. I don't like it at all," said Shimkus, who is part of the department's Sexual Offender Registration and Notification Team.
The law, Shimkus said, is becoming harder to enforce and might hinder police from knowing where some sex offenders live, allowing them to move closer to schools and parks undetected for long periods of time.
Shimkus is considered by many in this area to be an expert on sex offender issues. He's even been involved in mapping out some of the state's laws governing such offenders and said he cautioned legislators against the 1,000-foot law before it was passed.
"I told them it's going to be a logistical nightmare to enforce and, the thing is, I don't think there's any research that shows these residency restrictions really protect anything," he said.
One of the primary problems with the restriction is that with so few places sex offenders can live, many give up trying to comply with the law and move to within earshot of a school or park anyway.
They never register their real addresses and might not be caught until police are able to do a check on their whereabouts.
Of the 37 people Allen County police arrested for failing to register their addresses in 2011, Shimkus said 20 percent to 30 percent did so because they could not find living accommodations that comply with the 1,000-foot requirements in the law.
Without such a restriction, Shimkus argues that most offenders would not be so willing to break the registry laws or lie to police about their addresses. Officers would then be able to keep better tabs on where offenders live.
Shimkus proposes that instead of having so many restrictions on where offenders can live, there should be a more severe felony levied against an offender who lives within 1,000 feet of a school or youth center without registering his or her address.
"Some of these guys want to comply, but can't," he said. "I'd much rather have a sex offender living next to a school as long as the school knows, as long as I know and as long as the community knows."
The multiple requirements in the law ban sex offenders from many parts of Fort Wayne, forcing them into the rural areas of the county.
This presents a whole new set of problems, Shimkus said. Many offenders are on parole and need to make mandatory counseling appointments or meet with their probation officers. When they live in areas without buses, many who are poor can't make these meetings and end up failing their probation.
It's like they are set up to fail, Shimkus said.
And then there are the "sex offender ghettos." It comes as no surprise to Shimkus that these areas have an influx of offenders in one place.
"All these guys talk to each other and see each other in counseling sessions," Shimkus said. "They hear from each other the places where they can live. One day a little area might have one or two sex offenders, the next it becomes a minefield for the families that live there."
Multiple sex offender clusters already exist in Allen County.
At a motel at [address withheld]. there currently reside 24 sex offenders, some of whom are part of a taxpayer-funded Department of Correction program that helps offenders reintegrate into society.
Seven sex offenders are living at a mobile home park at [address withheld]; six are living in an apartment complex at [address withheld].; and 15 live within a half-mile of [address withheld] and [address withheld], where someone reportedly tried to abduct a 13-year-old girl in November.
The [address withheld], where seven offenders currently live, has presented a unique problem for Shimkus and his team recently. It also shows a gray area in the law, he said.
A few years ago, Shimkus said his department had 13 sex offenders removed from a local apartment complex because of its proximity to a youth center. These offenders all moved to the [address withheld] because at the time it fit the 1,000-foot requirements.
This year, a child-care center opened in the area. Does the law mandate that these offenders – who were within their right to live where they do when they moved – now relocate?
Shimkus isn't convinced the law is clear.
"We've kind of grandfathered them right now," he said, noting his department has not forced these offenders to move.
Shimkus' boss, Allen County Sheriff Ken Fries, does not want sex offenders anywhere near schools but also said he doesn't know whether there's a "magic number" when it comes to measuring how many feet away a sex offender must live.
He, like Shimkus, said that parents need to be mindful of where they live, that they should always check the sex offender registry to see who lives around them.
While many sex offenders know their victims, Fries said a neighbor is someone who usually becomes known to the children and that parents need to know their neighbors.
"If you're a parent and you know there's something wrong, or you think there's something peculiar about someone, for God's sake don't let your kid be around them," Fries said.
While he disagrees with the living restrictions, Shimkus does not expect the law to be lifted soon.
It would take a legislator standing up and committing "political suicide" by appearing soft on sex offenders, he said, but he hopes the attention Aliahna Lemmon's case is bringing to the issue will also bring education about the drawbacks of the law.
"We have to decide what the real purpose is here," Shimkus said. "Do these sound-good and feel-good laws really protect us?"

Hi everyone, I was wondering if there is a way to send statistical data into max from another program to control parameters. For example, is there a way to input data to create an equation as a stochastic control, in order to help choose pitch data, without physically typing in the data? In simpler terms is there support to send non-midi data into max?
You can send data via. OSC, I've been using Max with a Kinect recently, and as long as you know the port you are receiving the data from, you can use [udpreceive 8000] (8000 being the port number), and then use the route object to filter through messages.
Hope this is what you're after?
you can also receive data from the serial port using the the [serial] object. I also developed a set of objects that will you let communicate with the world using UDP or TCP (the difference between these objects and the built-in ones is that they don't use OSC). In a worst-case scenario (that is, if your data source can't send data through the network or the serial port), you could save your data to a file in the disk (in a text-based format if possible) and then read that file from Max.
HTH, Ádám

The David Tennant's mug can be seen not only on this weeks Radio Times where he chats about life after Who, his new drama Single Father and his verdict on his replacement Matt Smith, but also in a huge gallery of Radio Times covers upon which he's featured.
His interview is a fascinating read; Tenannt talks about his feelings on leaving the part behind:
"It felt right to pass the baton on and for it to continue to thrive."
On viewing his last episode:
"I was at home in London on New Year's Day when I watched my last episode. It felt emotional, a weird mixture of emotions, but above all I was proud to be going out with a bang."
And just what he thinks about Matt Smith:
"I've loved every second. It's a thrill to be watching as a viewer again. I knew Matt was going to be fantastic and he is. He's a great choice and he's knocked it out of the park."
Starring alongside Surrane Jones (whose as well as appearing as Mona Lisa in The Sarah Jane Adventures will soon be playing Iris alongside Matt Smith in Neil Gaiman's Doctor Who episode), Single Father follows the life of Dave whose wife and mother of his children dies unexpectedly- leaving him to raise them on his own. Tossed into this difficult situation is his wife's best friend whom he begins to use for more than just support.
You can read the full, interesting interview with David Tennant in the current Radio Times.

I can't remember when I saw it, but sometime in the 90's I saw a picture of Johnny Dawes on the first ascent of the Very Big and the Very Small (5.14a). Dawes, from the UK, sent the line in 1990 and it was considered the hardest slab in the world at the time. The climb is located in North Wales at the Llanberis slate quarries. It climbs a 70-degree slab of slate, the same stuff those old-school chalkboards are made out of. The image that sticks in my mind is of Dawes, just standing there looking desperate. The slab didn't appear to have many more holds than a chalkboard.

Climbing slabs of slate has to be one of the most specialized disciplines in the game of climbing. It's hard to define the limits of what is possible as slab climbing seems to border on magic. How long can you walk the line of insecurity, desperation, perfect control, sending...or falling.
James McHaffie of the UK may have just pushed the limit of slab climbing a bit further with his ascent of Meltdown in the slate quarries of Llanberis. The line, originally bolted by Johnny Dawes, has been a long term project that's gained quite a reputation over the 20 years since it's equipping. As one of the few to repeat the Very Big and the Very Small as well as other hard ascents in UK like the second ascent of the Big Bang (5.14d),[Video Link] McHaffie was the man for the job. He's suggested a grade of 5.14c or d for the line.
UKclimbing.com has a one minute clip of James on the first crux move that spit him off a few times.

Switching from Season Long to Daily Fantasy Sports
It's been almost a decade since Instant Fantasy Sports was established in 2007, adding a twist to the long popular fantasy sports seasons. So you might be forgiven for thinking that players who love the season long play, would have realized by now that there are major differences between the two in some very important factors. But no, there are still many who haven't figured out why they do well enough in the long play and get killed in the daily play. Even more important, they haven't figured out why they should make the effort to get better, so we'll start there.
Daily Fantasy Sports has Greater Profit Potential
Because of the quick turnaround at the daily level, players have enormous potential to increase their profits. It's like compound interest. If you win one day and reinvest part of those winnings the next day, and keep doing that, your capital will grow much faster. It would take a much larger initial investment to earn the same amount over the course of a season.
Of course, the same is true of day trading on the stock market, which most people fail miserably at because they don't know what they're doing. So the same equation applies: the more you know, the more you win. However, daily fantasy sports also has one huge positive thing going for it that the stock market doesn't.
It's similar to poker, in that you are only playing against other players, so you only need to know more than they do rather than more than all the financial professionals on Wall Street who are driving the market. Which brings us to…
Factors That Affect Success in Daily Fantasy Sports
These are the practices that will vary drastically from how to construct a team for season long play. There's no reason players can't enjoy both leagues, as long as they remember to change strategies.
· Opponents Over the course of a season, 16 games will usually include both teams that are stronger than yours, as well as players that are weaker than yours. And each team will have different strengths, which means your team needs to be fairly well-balanced in order to have a decent chance against all of them. In daily play, you can forget balanced. Create the best team you can to defeat the strengths and play on the weaknesses of your opponent on each particular day.
· Research Of course, that means a ton more research. So if you don't have the time or inclination to do it, it's probably best to stick with seasonal play.
· Injuries can be used to your advantage. At the start of the season, injury prone players are usually available at much lower prices, even if that barely even matters in daily play. Use those savings to spend more on stronger players where you need them, and you can rack up more wins early on – which results in growing your capital faster!
Remember, you only need beat the newbies who come to play without knowing all of this. And there is a constant stream of them.
