Guitar Hero WT vs Rock Band 2
April 28, 2020 April 29, 2020 by Paul Linus
Drum Kit Construction Comparison
Out of the box you can feel the difference between the two kits. When it comes to strength the GHWT (Guitar Hero World Tour) kit is superior. However, sturdier also means it is a bit heavier. The legs have a cross bar that helps prevents swaying from side to side. This causes a problem with the kick pedal if you prefer to sit up close and have the pedal further out as it can block your leg. The pedal works more like a drum pad than an actual bass pedal, and is less prone to breaking.
RB2 (Rock Band 2) has reinforced the old pedal from the first game with metal. It is a bit stronger than its predecessor but with only two support bars it has a tendency to sway. The pads are able to take more of a beating as they have used a new material for them, which also silences them quite a bit.
Set-Up of the Guitar Hero and Rock Band Drum Kits
A big debate among gamers now is the realistic set up of the drum pads. GHWT has three pads that run at a slight angle in half a circle around the player. and two cymbals sitting on top the kit. Many have said they find the GHWT kit to be more realistic than RB2. One thing to be wary of the different heights of the cymbals and pads can cause some off beats. Also, when really getting into it, one's movements could become a bit wild and hit a cymbal while coming down to hit a pad.
Your aim will require work to get good on this kit.
RB2's kit has four pads placed in a half circle around the player. There will be an add-on soon released in the form of attachable cymbals that correspond to a particular pad. You can get from one to three additional cymbals.These will have a little more flexibility on the placement and could help it compete with GHWT on the level of realism. This is not to say one might develop the same problems seen on the GHWT kit.
Remember with realism comes greater difficulty.
Cross Compatibility of Rock Band 2 and Guitar Hero World Tour Drum Kits
One of the most important features is how well the kit plays on the competitor's game. Because the RB2 kit has only four notes opposed to GHWT's five, the game play on GHWT shifts to accommodate this, merging two tracks, specifically the orange and green notes are simply played on the RB2 green pad, into one and cutting down on some notes. It feels about the same, but losses something in the translation.
But this additional note also works against the GHWT kit when played on RB2, it becomes arbitrary and at times can get in the way of playing. Neither has any glaring problems with cross compatibility but for those looking to get the full experience of each game may wish to stick with its drum kit.
It's a hard choice and mainly depends on where your comforts lie. Much like an actual drum kit you'll want to be using the one that suits you and your needs.
Guitar Hero World Tour's Drum Kit Problems
Though the game itself was received positively, there were many problems with World Tour's controllers, especially the drum kits. Players should be aware of these issues if they plan on buying Guitar Hero World Tour, or its sequel, Guitar Hero 5, which can also use the microphone and drum kit peripherals.
Problems with the Drum Kit on Guitar Hero World Tour
When Guitar Hero World Tour was released, one of the game's selling points was that the drums registered both hard and soft hits. But there were soon numerous complaints from angry players about the drum kit's unreliable sensitivity. Shoddily-connected wires were blamed, and Activision and Red Octane made a drum kit tuning tool available to help tweak the software.
Not all the drum kits released had major problems, and it seems that Guitar Hero World Tour sets released later have had fewer issues. However, the build quality on the drum kits – supposedly designed for repeatedly being hit – remains an issue.
Sensitivity problems can still recur on drum kits after long use, while cymbals (and even the included drumsticks) have been known to break after regular playing.
Red Octane does have a 90-day warranty on Guitar Hero World Tour peripherals, and many major retailers, aware of the game's issues, have allowed returns directly on defective World Tour sets. Yet buyers should keep in mind that these returns can be sold again as "refurbished" Guitar Hero World Tour sets, which, even if covered by their own limited warranty, are at even greater risk of breaking down.
Alternatives to Guitar Hero World Tour's Drums
In response to the need for more durable drum kits for the Guitar Hero series, a number of third-party peripherals have been made available. Logitech makes a Wireless Drum Controller specifically for Guitar Hero World Tour on Microsoft's XBox 360 or Nintendo's Wii, which is more adjustable and has more durable parts.
Ion Audio also makes a drum kit for gaming, called the Drum Rocker. The Drum Rocker is available for the XBox 360, Wii, and Sony Playstation 2 and 3 and is designed for Rock Band 2.
However, Activision has made Guitar Hero World Tour compatible with Rock Band instruments (provided they are for the same system), and Ion confirms that this is the case with the Drum Rocker set. In addition, the Drum Rocker can also be used with professional drum modules (like the Alesis DM5) to become a "real" electronic drum kit.
Let the Drummer Beware on Guitar Hero World Tour
The Guitar Hero series is rightly praised among rhythm gamers. But peripherals like the drum kit, which were introduced for World Tour to compete with Rock Band, can have problems that cause extra hassles for players. It's no wonder that some may even prefer to find better-made replacements.

Ontario budget 2013: Changes to social assistance 'far-reaching and fundamental'
By Laurie MonsebraatenSocial Justice Reporter
Thu., May 2, 2013timer3 min. read
updateArticle was updated May. 03, 2013
Anti-poverty activists are welcoming the Wynne government's "first steps" to transform Ontario's $8.3 billion welfare system into a program that helps more people, including the disabled, escape poverty through employment.
However, they want NDP Leader Andrea Horwath to push the Liberals during budget negotiations to increase the Ontario child benefit by $200 per child this year to $1,310 as originally promised in the its five-year poverty reduction plan.
The Liberals are proposing to increase the benefit by just $100 this July and by another $100 in July 2014, as announced last year.
"There are a lot of very positive measures in this budget," said Sarah Blackstock of the 25 in 5 Network for Poverty Reduction.
"But the failure to increase the child benefit to the maximum this year is of great concern," she said. "The full increase is what is needed to make sure we meet the target of reducing child poverty by 25 per cent by the end of the year."
The proposed Liberal budget would invest $400 million over three years to get started on a welfare reform blueprint submitted last fall by former NDP cabinet minister Frances Lankin and former Statistics Canada head Munir Sheikh.
Among the measures Finance Minister Charles Sousa called "far-reaching and fundamental," is a proposal to allow people to keep the first $200 they earnproposal to allow people to keep the first $200 they earn before triggering claw-backs. Currently, they lose 50 cents of every dollar they earn.
The move would immediately put more money in the pockets of about 57,000 people on social assistance who have earnings, the budget says. But the initiative is aimed at encouraging more of the 500,000 adults on social assistance to ease into work.
"People deserve to keep more of the money they earn through their hard work," Sousa told the legislature.
Toronto single mother Christian Garate, 29, who struggles to support her family on welfare for the disabled, praised the proposal.
"Allowing people on social assistance to keep $200 is fantastic," she said. "You can save $100 for a rainy day and use the other $100 to catch up on bills," she said.
Garate used to work three jobs. But in 2011 she suffered a break down when her children — ages 12, 7 and 5 — were diagnosed with learning disabilities and emotional problems and her spousal relationship ended.
Garate is disappointed the Liberals are not prepared to raise the child benefit by the full amount this year and said the budget's proposed 1-per-cent welfare rate increase won't help her family escape poverty.
It would mean an increase of just $16 to her monthly $1,626 Ontario Disability Support Program (ODSP) cheque.
"Any increase is good," she says. "But the cost of everything is going up so fast."
The budget also proposes an additional $14 monthly top-up for single people on Ontario Works, who receive the lowest monthly rate of $606. The change would amount to a 3-per-cent increase, or $20 more a month for them.
If the budget passes, cash and other liquid-asset limits for people who receive Ontario Works would be quadrupled to $2,500 "so they have more financial security," Sousa said in his budget speech. Couples would be able to keep assets of $5,000.
It is the first step toward aligning asset limits in Ontario Works with those in the Ontario Disability Support Program, which allows assets of $5,000 for singles and $7,500 for couples, finance ministry officials said.
In addition, those on Ontario Works would be able to keep gifts of up to $6,000 a year without affecting their eligibility for assistance, as is currently allowed for those on ODSP.
If approved, the budget would also remove the $10,000 restriction on the value of a primary vehicle for those on social assistance so they can continue to use their car or truck for employment.

How I Slept With 10 Men While Being Initiated – 19-Year-Old Girl Who Joined Cult Confesses In Edo
jcyranking
Blessing David, a 19-year-old girl and a cult leader known as the Marine Girls, revealed on Thursday that she had slept with 10 men since she joined the group, The PUNCH notes.
The woman, who was initiated along with other girls, said that sleeping with the men was part of the initiation rites.
She said this at the headquarters of the Edo State Police Command in Benin City, when Police Commissioner Johnson Kokumo paraded 15 armed robbery suspects, six cultists, three kidnappers and four murder suspects.
The cultists paraded were three young girls who were said to be Marine Girls.
Blessing told PUNCH Metro that she had joined the party in 2019.
"Blessing David is my word. Last year, I was accepted into the cult. I slept with 10 people as part of the initiation process, "she said.
Another 16-year-old girl, Ada Emeka, said she was sleeping with 10 men as part of the initiation rites.
The CP said two alleged armed robbers had been killed by command operatives in the early hours of Thursday.
"The eight-man robbery gang operating in the Amagba region of Benin City robbed 13 homes, wounding victims with machetes and other weapons during the operation that began about 12 a.m. on Thursday and lasted until 3 a.m. They were engaged in a gun duel by the police and two of them were killed in the process, "Kokumo said.
One of the victims, who gave his name simply as Eghosa, said that he was sleeping with his wife in the bedroom when he unexpectedly saw torch lights pointed at them.
He said, "The thieves removed the window and used blocks to hit the door protector repeatedly before it gave way. They walked into our house, gathered the money available, wounded my mother and my newborn baby with machetes, and smashed my wife's iPhone on the wall when it became clear they couldn't make use of the phone.
"When they left my place, they robbed about 13 other houses until the guards and the police called. Once the police arrived, they began to exchange bullets with the robbers. Two of them were killed and one of them was captured. This one was the one who took the iPhone of my wife.
Billionaire, Ned Nwoko Reacts After Journalist Accused Him Of Belonging To A Cult Group
Billionaire businessman and philanthropist, Prince Ned Nwoko has paid N2billion damages for the defamation of a character claim against journalist and online publisher Azuka Jebose Molokwu.
It comes after the reporter accused the businessman of belonging to a cult group.
This is set out in the notice of summons received from the High Court of Effurun, Delta State on behalf of Nwoko by its lawyer, Ikhide Ehighelua and Co, dated 13 July 2020.
Also joined in the suit No. EHC 99 as the second defendant is Prince Chukwunonso Nwoko, who was listed as employer and supporter of the first defendant, Jebose, a native of Onicha-Ugbo, Aniocha North Local Government Area, Delta State, resident in the United States of America.
According to the suit, both defendants made extremely diffamatory publications in a variety of online blogs and other social media outlets "calculated to the the claimant's calculation" and to damage the public's credibility.
This alleged that the malicious publications had proceeded unabated against the complainant, despite the warnings from his lawyers to the defendants.
Nwoko 's Counsel also argued that the first defendant had publicly declared on the social media that the notices would not dissuade his defamatory publications, triggering legal action.
The plaintiff also demanded in his favor, before the court, "public apology for publication by the defendants in at least two national daily newspapers circulated in Nigeria and on social media sites," as well as an order of perpetual injunction prohibiting the defendants from making any more diffamatory publications against him.
Face Of Ex-DSS Operative Who Impregnated His 16-year-old Daughter In Rivers (Photo)
The identity of a man who had the carnal knowledge of his underage daughter and impregnated her was exposed.
Former DSS officer Eromosele Mahmud, 47, confessed to the police after he was arrested in Rivers State for allegedly impregnating his 16-year-old daughter after five years of rape.
The defendant, a single parent and the father of three of them from the Esako West Local Government Area of Edo State, but resident in Port Harcourt, admitted to having been raped since she was 12 years old.
Eromosele, who said that he did not know what forced him into the crime, begged that his daughter's two-month pregnancy should be nurtured before delivery, adding that he had not subscribed to abortion.
He admitted that his daughter had come to enjoy the incestuous affair, and even forced herself on him.
He said, "This is a war I've been trying to fight over the years, and it seems to be a lot bigger than me. I do not withhold any evidence or reality as far as this case is concerned. When this is the only way my daughter will be released if I go to jail, then it's a positive thing. My joy is that even now, when I talk to you, I am relieved.
"I don't rape her regularly; it happens once or twice in a year; she used to be very cooperative, even when I don't want it, she tries to force herself on me."
On her part, the victim said each time she protested against her father's act, he would maltreat her and stop paying her school fees and also punish her.
She stated, "It was my father who impregnated me; he started having sex with me when I was 12-year-old till now.
"The first time he came and lay with me on the bed, when I tried to scream, he told me to shut up that my mates were doing the same thing and anytime I refused to allow him, he would not buy anything for me and he would refuse to pay my school fees."
The state Police Public Relations Officer, Nnamdi Omoni, said the suspect would be charged once investigation was concluded.

CJSS-AM went off air due to a blizzard on Jan 9, 1988 before returning back to airs on Jan 15, 1998. The Canadian commission on April 1, 1999 approved the switching of the channel to FM band and the change in frequency which would be 101.9 MHz from now onwards. Also, 3,000 w would be the new ERP and rechristened station would be named as Blaze 101.9 FM. Tri-Co the owner of THE BLAZE was allowed to reduce the average and max. ERP of the transmitter to 1,420 and 15,000 watts. After the acquiring of station by Corus Entertainment in 2001 it was renamed as Rock 101.9 and the new owner moved all its Cornwall assets to 709 Cotton Mill Street. The format was changed from Classic to Active Rock in Feb 2007 but was revived in 201 to Oldies and Classics. Corus Radio was rebranded as Boom 101.9 on Aug 25, 2014. 70's, 80's, 90's is the catchphrase of the Boom.

In Doctor Who there is always a slight air of trepidation around each new Doctor's debut, it is after all an iconic role and a lot of responsibility to lead the worlds longest running sci-fi show. Adding to that pressure is necessity of each debut episode to show off a new Doctor and their companions, whilst providing a solid jumping on point for new audiences, keeping enough of the original charm to retain long standing fans, and wrapping it all up in a solid episode of family television. It's no small task, and it's something that more often than not delivers some of the shows most memorable episodes (be that good or bad).
On top of the regular expectations The Woman Who Fell to Earth marks one of the few episodes to introduce a fully new Doctor and set of companions at the same time (with most Doctor's inheriting a companion or two from their predecessor), as well as only the third time since the shows return in 2005 that brings with it a new Doctor and companions, and a totally new show runner for the franchise.
The biggest draw for the first episode of Doctor Who's eleventh season was of course Jodie Whittaker's debut as the first female Doctor, although I'd argue that after the initial shock announcement there wasn't really any doubt that she would do a great job. Having more than proved her acting prowess in shows like Broadchurch and Trust Me,( with Broadchurch being with created by the incoming Doctor Who Showrunner Chris Chibnall), it seemed like a perfect fit for a totally new take on the Doctor.
And this episode proved exactly that, Whittaker's Doctor manages to combine everything you'd expect from the Doctor, like an abhorrence to violence and cruelty, super intelligence, quick wit, and an off beat charm, with her own signature brand of 'Doctor-ness'. The episode spends about as much time introducing the supporting cast as it does the Doctor, and so we don't get a huge amount of time with her, but what we do see is that Jodie Whittaker is undeniably the Doctor.
Arguably The Woman Who Fell to Earth isn't the best debut we've seen in modern Doctor Who, and on a story basis comes with the expected, 'the Doctor having something slowing her down', usually in the form of the regeneration process finishing up, no TARDIS, or memory issues, or like we see here all three at once. But aside from all of that, and the other debut tropes of the Doctor pulling it all together in the end, making a new sonic, and scaring off the evil alien invader just by telling them who she is, there was definitely something new about the episode.
With the focus aimed at Bradley Walsh's Graham, Tosin Cole's Ryan, and Mandip Gill's Yasmin, and their respective lives as much as it is on the Doctor, it very much feels like this era of Doctor who will focus on the team as a whole rather than the Doctor and a singular special companion. Obviously there has been plenty of times the Doctor has travelled with a small group and had more a of a family feel, but this newest take seems like there is an extra layer of depth, setting up what looks to be some pretty rich content going forward.
All of the newer additions and alterations were underscored by an almost wink at the audience speech from the Doctor who proclaimed that she can honour who and what came before, whilst still being a wholly new person in her own right, perfectly setting the own for the sort of Doctor Jodie Whittaker is going to be (and realistically, already is).
Although not the most original debut episode in terms of story The Woman Who Fell to Earth did everything it needed to and more, focussing on the 'how' rather than the 'what', focussing on the whole team rather than any one member, and debuting a perfect new Doctor, showcasing everything she and her new crew of companions look to deliver.
I think there was alot of goodwill surrounding Jodie Whittaker's debut, and she didn't disappoint.

What's in a Zone? Gardening in Zone 4b
by LD Benhardus|Published January 19, 2022
Ah, what's in a Zone? Would a rose, in any other zone, smell as sweet?
When it comes to gardening in the Twin Cities, which falls in zone 4b according to the United States Department of Agriculture, there's a lot of talk of how short our growing season is and how we make do with what we have here in the "Great White North".
Did you know that growing zones have little to do with the length of the growing season and everything to do with the average coldest temperatures that are reached in winter?
The growing zone, or as the USDA titles them "Plant Hardiness Zone", for the Twin Cities is currently indicated as 4b.
What does 4b mean?
To answer that, we need to consider some history. 30 years of history to be exact. According to the USDA website, hardiness zones are "based on the average annual extreme minimum temperature during a 30-year period in the past, not the lowest temperature that has ever occurred in the past or might occur in the future." It is important to make a distinction between the average minimum temperatures and the actual minimum temperatures that can occur in our region.
Our lows in the Twin Cities average -25 to -20 degrees Fahrenheit according to the USDA, which gives us the growing zone or hardiness zone of 4b. The suffix b on our zone indicates that we are in the higher end of the temperature spectrum for our zone, with 4a having averages of -30 to -25 degrees. Yikes! The hardiness zones encompass the US and its territories along with Canada and measure, in 5 degree intervals, the average minimum temperature for each zone. The Zones tend to form horizontal bands stretching across the continent, with pockets and peninsulas caused by terrain and bodies of water that influence temperature averages.
What does it mean for gardeners?
It means several things, including what constitutes an annual (versus a perennial) in our climate. Plants that are not hardy to our zone (or lower) will not survive the winter here and thus are considered annuals.
The Moss Rose Portulaca grandiflora pictured here is an annual in zone 4b, but a perennial in its native range in Central America.
Knowing your growing zone gives you insight into what plants need extra protection in winter. Some plants are considered "marginally hardy" here, for example, Butterfly Bush Buddleia davidii, which is hardy to zone 5a, require sheltered planting locations and winter protection to ensure they survive in our cold climate.
What doesn't this mean?
The hardiness zone doesn't tell us important information about our growing conditions like the length of days, microclimates, soil makeup, wind exposure, and the water table. Plants with compatible hardiness to our zone will usually survive here, but there can be microclimate conditions that make individual plants susceptible to stress. Just like people, some are just not acclimatized to different conditions.
While hardiness zones can't help us reach 100% success rate with all our plant choices, they do help us filter down our selections when we get too excited with the plant catalogs!

SOLD...SOLD...SOLD....: Tuff River top for 710M - THE PORTAL HUB - Pinzgauers, Haflingers, Volvo 303s and more!
I recently received one of the last new Tuff River tops for my 1974 710M, so I have my old light gray colored Tuff River top available for sale. Rumor has it that Tuff River is shutting down, so this is a unique opportunity.
I paid about $4500 for my new top, and am selling my old one for $1000. I don't know the age of the top. I have owned the vehicle for about 6 ½ years, and I have always stored it inside. The old top is in really good condition, with one exception: The top has some discoloration on the upper part. The fabric seems to still be waterproof (as waterproof as these tops are!), but the color is a little patchy as you can see in my pictures. Because it is so high up, the discoloration not that noticeable while driving around.
The quality of workmanship for Tuff River is impressive on this top. The side "windows" in the rear of the top have covers on BOTH the inside and outside of bug screen. This is really nice because Tuff River had stopped making their new tops this way. The advantage is that when the sides are rolled up, you see the same color top along the whole side. With the newer tops, the black color of the bug screen is visible too when rolled up, which does not look as good.
The top is insulated. There is a separate flap (with a plastic window) that rolls down if you want to seal off the front cab from the rear. The flap over the back of the rear compartment also has a plastic window inside. The rubber rope and the other fittings are in great condition.
Not included are the two long skinny plastic pieces and the square metal plate that anchor down the rear of the top for the front cab area. These do not come with a new Tuff River top, so I needed to re-use them.
If you are interested, I have many more pictures and a couple videos that better document the condition of the top. Note that many of my pictures show the top and its fittings unconnected. These pictures were taken like that to send to Tuff River to convey the details of my original top. The top and its fittings all close up just fine. You may need to make small adjustments in the rubber rope connectors to make it perfectly fit on your Pinz, as I did with my new top.
Serious buyers are welcome to make an appointment to see the top and inspect it in person. It is in the Los Angeles area. It is being sold "as is", without any warranty. I am willing to box it up at no charge, but the shipping costs will be extra. Prepayment only. USA only. No foreign sales.
This is a unique chance to buy a Tuff River 710M top in good condition at less than ¼ the cost of a new one IF YOU COULD GET ONE! First $1000 takes it.
For more information, send an email to gimmewind@gmail.com If you want to speak with me, just send me your phone number and I will call you back.

Tag: Apocalypse Then
Ranking the top 5 moments from "American Horror Story: Apocalypse" season 8 episode 10 Season Finale: "But my Sisters are a Legion Motherf*cker"
Happy Thursday TV fans! After watching the FX network's American Horror Story: Apocalypse season 8 episode 10 season finale last night, the final battle we have all been waiting for is finally here. Only it may not be the showdown that you were initially predicting. Please note major spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch the latest episode yet. In last night's episode, "Apocalypse Then," the past finally meets the present, as the witches of coven face Michael Langdon. Sacrifices are made and betrayals are finally dealt with in this jam-packed finale. My top 5 moments from American Horror Story: Apocalypse season 8 episode 10 season finale are:
"So this is goodbye."
In the beginning of the episode, we witness Myrtle Snow paying a visit to Jeff and Mutt. This further explains how the witches were able to successfully book Coco and Mallory a reservation at Outpost 3. Myrtle puts Ms. Venable in her place and reminds her that purple is for royalty. Later on, Cordelia explains to the girls that they will forget everything they know about themselves. Coco's new personality is actually modeled after Madison, which explains a lot and Madison hilariously tells her to "consider it an upgrade." Coco is meant to be mean to Mallory, as Cordelia needs to ensure that Mallory doubts herself so that her powers are not detected, revealing that she really has thought of every detail here. She further explains that her "powers will emerge when they are ready." We also get to see Cordelia, Myrtle, and Madison waking up after the apocalypse, proving our theory that they would use the healing powers of the Louisiana swamps. After all, "it's time."
"There is no way that bitch could get a show on television without selling her soul to the devil."
After Madison shows off her less than impressive skills as an Uber driver, she drops off Coco and Mallory, who are now under the identity spell. Madison notices Dinah's billboard on a bus and quickly realizes that she is the one who sold them out. Madison wants to do something about it, but Cordelia explains that Dinah must stay safe until they are ready to "make her pay." In present day, Dinah refuses to get caught in the middle of the battle between the witches and Michael, but we are all in for a surprise when Marie Laveau walks in, played by the wonderful Angela Bassett, and says, "She needed the help of a voodoo queen but that ain't you." Cordelia made a deal with Papa and gave him Dinah's soul, freeing Marie in exchange. Marie takes out Dinah and tells her to give Papa her regards. All hail the real voodoo queen!
"It's payback bitch."
Now that all of our players are in place, the battle we have all been waiting for quickly begins. Ms. Mead is eliminated and Madison channels her inner Tony Montana from Scarface, as she opens fire on Michael with Ms. Mead's arm. Madison agrees to hold off Michael as long as she can, but is quickly eliminated. "I guess it's back to retail." Marie and Coco also team up to take Michael down, but he kills them both and reminds us, "I'm nothing like normal." Brock also finally shows up again and brutally stabs Mallory for not taking him on the plane, but Myrtle takes him out. As Mallory's life force begins pouring out of her, Cordelia knows what she must do to protect her sisters and the world. It seems like all hope is lost, but Cordelia faces Michael with her head held high and reminds him that he may be the only son of Satan, but "my sisters are a legion motherf*cker!" Cordelia stabs herself so that Mallory can rise as the next Supreme and complete her time travel spell, which is the ultimate sacrifice.
It's 2015 and Michael is just a boy again, living with Constance Langdon. As Michael heads out into the street, Mallory runs him over with a car several times to eliminate the threat once and for all. Constance stands over him and Michael begs her to take him back into Murder House so that they can be together forever, but Constance refuses to grant his last wish and tells him to go to hell. The ultimate battle we have all been waiting for is over, but it's not the showdown we were predicting. Mallory has changed the timeline to save her sisters and also the world, but what does this mean for the rest of the AHS universe? After all, changing the past can have unforeseen consequences for the future.
"The battle between good and evil never ends."
Now that the threat is eliminated, Mallory returns to her coven and remembers everything. She is so excited to see Cordelia again and Cordelia even asks her if they have met before. Myrtle is not back because Cordelia no longer saw the threat of the end of the world and Madison will have to "sweat it out a little longer" in her retail hell. Mallory was able to get some "blazing street cred" with creatures of the underworld since she took down the Antichrist and Misty and Nan are safely returned. Only Nan would prefer to return to her Papa. I guess as long as she is happy. Mallory reminds us that the battle between good and evil never ends and we know that there needs to always be a balance in the world. Avoiding the apocalypse does explain how we are able to see the year 2020 in AHS Hotel, which successfully fills in some gaps for us. Timothy and Emily are able to cross paths again in this new world, which initially seems sweet and romantic. Remember them? Only we know that they were saved because of their DNA and that they were worthy of potentially repopulating the earth. Emily gives birth to the new Antichrist, as they are horrified when they find his babysitter brutally murdered. Ms. Mead and the Black Pope knock on their door, recognizing the power and potential in their son, proving that evil has indeed found its loophole. Stay tuned for season 9!

Editor's Memo
Boomers Will Want It All
John Marcille
Our cover story this month, deals with the inevitable. Baby boomers are getting older, and there's no reason to suppose that they won't shake up health care with the same ferocity that they've shaken up every other institution they've encountered between Station Cradle and Station Grave. Just how they'll do it is the high-octane stuff that fuels experts' salaries.
Poetic intuition has already led us down this path. Long ago, Robert Browning wrote:
"Grow old along with me!
The last of life, for which the first was made."
The line probably resonates more today than it ever did in Browning's time. Boomers are expecting a healthy sunset — or else! Those born between 1946 and 1964 won't, to quote another poet, "go gentle into that good night" but will rather "rage, rage against the dying of the light."
They'll want the best medicine someone else's money can buy. Will managed care be able to provide it? And how?
Just what that medicine will be, and the considerable payment concerns surrounding it, is the subject of a column that makes its debut this month. Check out "Tomorrow's Medicine". Thomas Morrow, MD, vice president and medical director of Matria Healthcare and a member of our editorial advisory board, will discuss the latest biologic medicines, and there's going to be a lot to cover. By 2004, it is expected that there will be 197 such products creating a $40 billion market. The issues could become sticky.
Many issues in contemporary health care have a little or a lot to do with cost, and the cost implications are enormous here. Will they commensurate with the improvement in care? And even if they are a bargain, can we afford them? Or should I say, are we willing to afford them? Perhaps we'll ration them to those who can pay privately?
The nitty-gritty of coverage issues can almost make one jaded about just what's afoot here, technologically. Almost. As Time puts it, medicine will be "utterly transformed." As Browning put it:

Supercharged Raspberry Pi 3 adds Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and more speed, but still costs $35
Agam Shah
IDG News Service
Raspberry Pi has an in-store treat on its fourth anniversary.
It is now shipping the Raspberry Pi 3 computer, which at the same $35 price as its Pi 2 predecessor packs a more powerful 64-bit CPU, and for the first time, has built-in wireless capabilities.
The credit-card sized Pi 3 is up to 60 percent faster than its predecessor, which has shipped in the millions.
It is the first Pi that can be called a true PC replacement, said Eben Upton, CEO of Raspberry Pi, in a phone interview with the IDG News Service.
A new PC-class feature in Raspberry Pi 3 is 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4, which weren't supported on its predecessors. Wireless communication was a feature users wanted in Raspberry Pi 3 after being relegated to ethernet in previous models.
Wireless will make it easier to develop "Nest-like" smart home automation and Internet of Things devices, Upton said.
Also new is a 64-bit quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 CPU, which runs at 1.2GHz. The processor is used in mobile devices and even servers, and is a big upgrade from the 32-bit 900MHz Cortex-A7 on Pi 2.
The rest of the features haven't changed from Pi 2. It has an HDMI port, ethernet, MicroSD and four USB ports. It runs a Broadcom VideoCore IV 3D graphics processor that can play 1080p video at 60 frames per second, and has 40 GPIO pins, and display and camera interfaces.
About 200,000 Pi 3 computers will be available at launch and buyers will get devices in a few days, Upton said.
If the devices run out in the initial rush—which has happened before—Upton said users may have to wait a week or two to get devices. About 100,000 Raspberry Pi 3 devices will be made per week.
The Raspberry Pi 3 is compatible with Microsoft's Windows 10 IoT Core OS and flavors of Linux including Ubuntu.
The board will "last us a good year or two," Upton said. But if there's a chance to pack better graphics or CPU speed in the $35 price range, Raspberry Pi will go ahead and make the upgrades, Upton said.
Raspberry Pi has developed a cult following since the first computer was launched four years ago. It has spawned the development of robots, electronics, gadgets and even a Bitcoin ATM.
But Pi 3 will bring a broader set of innovations to the table, particularly with cloud in the mix, Upton said.
For one, the wireless features will allow users to build rudimentary smart homes by hooking up Raspberry Pi 3 to Bluetooth-based appliances, lighting or air-conditioning systems.
Information from devices could be hauled to cloud services for analysis via wireless. For example, a cloud service could tell a Raspberry Pi to turn an air conditioning system on or off based on data collected from smart meters, which could help cut electric bills.
The Pi 3 could also be used to develop home security systems or "health hubs," where data is collected from health monitoring devices and sent to the cloud, Upton said. It's much like Fitbit, which sends health information from smartwatches to the cloud, where the data is tracked and compiled to recommend diets and workouts.
The new features in Raspberry Pi 3 align well with Microsoft's Azure cloud service, which will provide remote automation, security, analytics and other services. Azure works hand-in-hand with the Windows 10 IoT Core OS.
However, some key features like ZigBee — which is key to home automation and IoT—are missing from Pi 3. Zigbee could have been included in the $35 price, but Bluetooth is the future of short-range wireless communications, Upton said.
Raspberry Pi is also planning a modular version of the Pi 3, which will have similar capabilities but be packaged in a board that could be installed inside computers. A shipping date for the board wasn't provided.
Many IoT platforms like Google's Brillo and ARM's mbed are also emerging for users to develop connected devices that rely on cloud services. Upton said support for more IoT platforms will come to Raspberry Pi 3.

Previously, I was using a RPi for a SiriProxy server. Since Apple changed the protocol to prevent MITM, I haven't used my RPi for anything.
I'm trying to justify getting a v3 but can't find a need for it.
linuxha
Cool device, not sure it's that much better than the existing Pi. I do like the $5 Pi. I'd like it better if I could get my hands on it.
I've got the SmartThings hub and the SmartThings Sheild. The ZigBee Shield costs more than the Pi and the individual part costs more that the Pi and the Shield :wacko:
The Pi is making it hard to just sit down an use an Arduino when you need a micro. :wub:
drvnbysound
I was impressed last year when they announced the quad-core and 1GB RAM at the same cost. Now, upgrading the processor, adding native wifi and BT... amazing amount of power in there for $35!

Another interesting Raspberry Pi 3 article which indicates that the RPI3 may run a full version of Win10 etc. http://www.zdnet.com/article/why-android-and-even-windows-might-make-it-onto-the-raspberry-pi-3/?tag=nl.e539&s_cid=e539&ttag=e539&ftag=TRE17cfd61
I am amazed at the offering and updates relating to the RPi3 for $35.
Here have two RPi2's running 24/7 and doing fine - only adds to both have been RTC. The original RPi has been retired now.
Might move current running RPi2 to the RPi3 and start playing with a Zigbee add on for the older RPi2.
Found the vendor in Germany (I think). Dang, that has better pricing, wonder if they'll ship across the pond? Wonder if I search a bit more can I find a US supplier.
... like Digikey (doh!).
Yup; they are made in Germany. So is a similiar Z-Wave dot me one I purchased.
I have purchased a few items from the EU here which hasn't been sold here from MCM electronics.
That is where I purchased my RPi2's, PiFace RTC, cases, et al. They typically do a $5 ship anywhere in US deal.
Both were on Amazon Prime - 2 day delivery.
Thinking I paid $49.95 for the Z-Wave Plus GPIO card from Amazon (its been a while now).
The RaspBee is $40.57 USD Dresden Elektronik Wireless
There it is $25.17 Euro which is $27.38 plus ~ $5.00 for shipping to the US.. (guesstimate)
I see development / diagnostic stuff available for it but no current open source automation stuff yet.

EDIT: RPi 3 Kits also becoming available on Amazon slowly too: http://www.amazon.com/canakit
BaduFamily
nice box; too bad POE wasn't integrated.
Here have purchased my RPi2's from MCM. Thinking the deal is $5.00 shipping for everything. (well what I got). Got a case, power supply and PiFace RTC shim.
I am using the RPi2's today with TP-Link POE injectors. They do fine. Wish too that they included an RTC.
I will probably put the RPi2 Homeseer 3 software on the RPi3 and install the Zigbee board on the old RPi2.
ecborgoyn
I also wish that the RPi* devices incorporated POE rather than only 'POU' (power-over-usb). But I suppose that the target audience is more inline with 'POU'.. I don't even find any RPi knock-offs that nicely integrate POE. Perhaps my prejudices are based on the fact that I work for that IP networking company, founded in San FranCisco'. ^_^
I understand that it would probably increase size considerably, but I think it would be awesome if the RPi could be powered via POE and allowed another V+ output (12V) in addition to the 5V and 3.3V outputs. I think that would greatly enhance the onboard capability.

I paired it with the Pretty Paisleys embossing folder, which just this moment I realize is RETIRED. Oh well...they pair together well, but I'll have to rework the card using only current product. The person I give this to will not care.
I stamped the greeting in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink, my go to ink when I'll be watercoloring. I used the new Watercolor Pencil in Melon Mambo to color in the "another year" words. I was going for an ombre look so I colored darker at the top and left the bottom part uncolored. Then I used a Blender Pen to blend a pull a little color to the bottom of the letters.
I stamped the polka dot balloon in Melon Mambo onto Vellum Card Stock and embossed it with Clear Embossing Powder, punched it out with the coordinating Balloon Bouquet punch. Tied some White Bakers Twine onto the balloon and used my favorite Clear Wink of Stella to give some shimmer to the balloon an the words I colored and then added a few rhinestones.
I layered the card front onto a panel of Melon Mambo card stock and then onto a base card of Whisper White Thick.

Rotation of the Earth
Calculate the circumferential speed of the Earth's surface at a latitude of 61°. Consider a globe with a radius of 6378 km.
Cyclist and car
A cyclist who runs at a speed of 20km per hour will arrive at the finish in 4.5 hours. How fast does the car have to drive the same route in 2 hours?
What is the average speed you have to move the way around the world in 80 days? (Path along the equator, round to km/h).
Earth's diameter
The Earth's diameter on the equator is approximately 12750 km. How long does the Gripen fly over the Earth above the equator at 10 km if it is at an average speed of 1500 km / h?
The Earth's surface is 510,000,000 km². Calculates the radius, equator length, and volume of the Earth, assuming the Earth has the shape of a sphere.
Dana started at 10:00 from point A to point B. These points are distant 12 km. Determine how fast Daniel went when place B arrived at 11:54. Speed express in km/h.
The cyclist drove from A to B, 60 km away. The first half drove at 30km/h, the second at 20km/h. How long did it take for him?
Motion against
From two places 36 km apart, a pedestrian and a cyclist will go straight opposite each other. How long will they meet if the speed of the pedestrian is 4 km/h and the cyclist 12 km/h?
Car - road
Car started at 11:40 at speed 54 km/h from A and to B arrived at 12:20. Determine the distance A and B.
Motion 2
At 10 o'clock started from place A car speed at 90 km/h. Twenty minutes after starting another car from place B at a speed 60 km/h . Distance places A and B is 120 kilometers. What time and where do they meet?
Two trains
From station A, the freight train traveled at a speed of 40 km/h in 9h. When he drove 15km, the fast train started from station A in the same direction at a speed of 70km/h. When will it the freight train catch up?
Two vans
At 8:30 a. M. , two vans leave at a parking area. They travel in opposite directions: one van travels at 48 km/h and the other at 62 km/h. At what time will the cars be 550 km apart?
The tram
The tram is moving with acceleration a = 0.3m/s2. How long will it pass the first meter of the track? How long does it take 10 meters? What is its speed at the end of the 10 meters track?
Constant motion
The car has undergone constant motion 120 km in 1 hour 30 minutes. Determine its average speed. Determine how long the car drove in the first 20 minutes and 50 minutes from the start of the move.
Earth and Sun
Earth is 150 million km away from the Sun. 300,000 km of sunlight travels in 1 second. How long will the light come from the Sun to the Earth?
Vojta left the house at three o'clockat 4 km/h. After half hour later went from the same place Filip by bicycle at speed 18 km/h. How long take Tilip to catch up Vojta and how far from the house?
From the top of the 80m high tower, the body is thrown horizontally with an initial speed of 15 m/s. At what time and at what distance from the foot of the tower does the body hit the horizontal surface of the Earth? (use g = 10 ms-2)


I wrote and recorded the song Where the Wind Blows,which appeared on 2018's Storyteller, and appears as the project's final track. Liam Carolan, a wonderful singer whom I have known since I was 17 years old, performed the lead and backing vocals on this particular song. Fellow musician and drummer, Bob Repin, Jr., played the drums. For this ballad, I played piano and overdubbed a number of keyboard tracks to make the song sound "lush." I also played acoustic and electric guitar, as well as recorded a pair of acoustic bass guitar tracks.
For Where the Wind Blows,I used my 1998 Gibson Switchmaster, which is my favorite "big body" non-tremolo hollowbody guitar of all time. This particular instrument features the 1949, large 17″ body with the 1950s triple humbucker specs. I used this guitar to create a slightly distorted foundation underneath some bright, clean acoustic guitar overdubs.
I used Emerald Guitars for all of my acoustic guitar tracks throughout the Storytellersessions and album. Interestingly enough, I recorded two bass tracks, both on Emerald acoustic bass guitars. One track was mic'd and stereo mixed with a pair of small and large diaphragm microphones (an Emerald Balor Bass) and the other track was performed on an Emerald X35 bass using the acoustic bass' internal preamp. I blended in a slight amount of chorus to unify the acoustic bass tracks and support the piano.
I recorded the acoustic rhythm guitar tracks using a pair of Emerald X20 guitars with regular and Nashville-strung, high gauge strings. I have used Nashville-strung guitars (Nashville tuning) on acoustic guitar over the years to complement and layer overdubs to enhance the overall recording of a particular track. Nashville tuning basically uses high octave tunings (from the sixth string down) on the E, A, D, and G strings. I slightly blended the Nashville acoustic tracks underneath the electric guitar and piano to add harmonic depth to the song.
I was really proud of the ways the electric and acoustic guitars worked with the strings and piano for this song. There was a real story behind the lyrical content for Where the Wind Blowsand the lush sound I was able to achieve through these layered instruments complimented the story within the lyrics.

Freeze by Nelicia Low, which will be screened as part of the SGIFF New Waves programme in June, is an unforgettable glimpse into the human need for connection and the terrible sense of isolation within a marriage. Hui (Emma Hung) longs for her husband to show her the love and affection she desires, but he is constantly traveling for work and she suspects he is having extramarital affairs. Her suspicions and questioning of his love for her leaves him irritated and her even more insecure. Instead, she turns to her autistic brother for the love and comfort she desires, which he supplies guilelessly.
Hui's pale, pinched-in face and sunken eyes carry the film, as her expressive face lights up when her husband takes her on a date and crumples with each dismissive word. Her eagerness towards him is as a flower to the sun, except the sun only rises once every few weeks for her. Hui's autistic brother (Zi-Heng Lin) responds, like an automaton, with "yes" to every question. He is an essential, if mostly mute, part of the drama as he provides the push-pull tension between the married couple. Hui's all-encompassing need for love, and for confirmation of that love ("Do you love me? Only me?") is like a scrape on her marriage: even when it heals, she peels it again and again. But when she turns those questions to her brother, he is a receptacle for her needs, providing her with the affirmation she craves.
Dialogue in the film is sparse and cutting, getting right to the heart of the matter and setting a lengthier context than just the span of the film. Through repeating certain scenes and locations, the ending of Freeze effectively feels like the culmination of a series of repeating events over a few years, rather than two days (in the timeline of the film). It makes the ending less shocking and more inevitable.
Freeze has a distinct blue tint through most of its scenes; a nod to its title, and symbolic of the distant and cold treatment of Hui's husband towards her and vice versa. The blues are contrasted against the red of Hui and her brother's uniforms at the supermart where they work. In one scene where Hui's husband catches her sleeping with her brother, the conflict between "blue" and "red" comes to the fore and splits the screen evenly in two.
This film will leave you thinking about it long after it ends, as it plunges into an unusual love triangle and reveals the dredges normally hidden by a facade. It asks if there is a Hui in every one of us, yearning for affection, and what we would do when carved hollow and starved of it.

Sobre el inesperado desembarco indicial del Reality Show en el siglo 21
Andacht, Fernando
Espacio Abierto. Cuaderno Venezolano de Sociología
The text considers a globalized media phenomenon, namely, the Reality Show, through its format of 24/7 surveillance (Big Brother), and adopts a qualitative and semiotic approach to study it. The consumption of this format is multiplied through many media platforms (open television, cable television, internet, smart phones, fanzines). This kind of TV show is based mostly on the offer of proliferating involuntary signs, indices according to the classification of logician C. S. Peirce. They are the signs that are closest to the body, and thereby they are the ones that human beings can control the least. What the text describes as semiotic perspiration generated by the exhibition of emotional symptoms is much appreciated by publics all over the world as being a reliable and transparent physiological window which can reveal what is most authentic in human beings: the soul or psyche. In the different examples discussed in the text, we observe that this phenomenon has reached beyond the realm of entertainment, and it is to be found nowadays in politics, and in what used to be traditional serious information TV genres. In a all these areas of cultural and social activity, we come across the emergence of indexical signs or index appeal, which is typically produced by the manifestation of humors, such as tears, in the mediatized performance of the confession of anonymous people or in the unheard of media access to the intimacy of politicians. That semiotic and media strategy has become, according to our study, one of the favorite spectacular forms for revealing the secrets of the soul in the 21st century.
