Xbox 360 Exclusive GTA IV DLC

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 20:30:51 PDT
Xbox 360 Exclusive GTA IV DLC Posted in Xbox 360 News at 10:30 pm by UNSCleric We’ve known since E3 2006 that Grand Theft Auto IV would have two large-scale expansions exclusive to the Xbox 360, but now that we’re just over a week away from the release, more hints and rumors are starting to come out. With Microsoft’s huge advertising blitz about to hit most likely tomorrow on everyone’s TV, confirmation of this “rumor” could come very soon. I believe the DLC will be of this scale as well.

Albeton Live’s Non-Existent "Secret" Vocoder; No One Needs a Vocoder

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 19:46:45 PDT
I haven’t necessarily been following Live’s forums lately, but apparently one of the hot-button issues lately was a rumored "secret" vocoder in a future build of Ableton Live. The myth goes something like this: a camera crew doing a behind-the-scenes look at Ableton’s Berlin office accidentally captures a brief moment in which an unreleased vocoder appears in the bottom part of the screen. I’ve been hearing buzz about this for weeks, but Garret Collins is the latest. (Sorry, Gar, but there’s th

CBC’s oft-used source for political experts —the Huffington Post —in new hate du jour

CBC’s oft-used source for political experts —the Huffington Post —in new hate du jour Here’s a bit of a post from the infamous Huffington Post web site, the web site which the state-owned CBC seems to use as a go-to place to secure folks to act as guest political experts for their Newsworld news channel. They ask questions of the Huffington Post experts in order to fully inform Canadians, CBC-style. Canadians, bereft of news otherwise, could, the CBC may well think, benefit from this kind of

Tai cheese, anyone?

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 20:30:33 PDT
A dairy farmer who believes a happy cow is a productive cow has discovered an unusual way to relax his herd and increase milk yields – tai chi.Rob Taverner performs the ancient martial art in front of his 100 cows every morning to get them in the right moo-d to produce lots of milk. The 44-year-old organic farmer visits the animals at 9am each day to run through his ten-minute routine of slow movements and breathing techniques – dressed in his distinctive overalls and wellies. He said: 'Ta

A Viewer Speaks

Wed, 02 Apr 2008 08:05:29 PDT
WE GET A good group of commenters here in Sticksville. Lately, we've been hearing quite a bit from a young woman from the Prairies, who has an openminded attitude toward Canadian shows, and an engaged and passionate way of defending them. On the subject of all the changes going on at the CBC, I think she's expressed the necessary corrective point of view better than Richard Stursberg, Kirstine Leyfield, or anybody else at the public broadcaster has managed to do. So I'm bumping her comment here

Oil up! Freak out! Dow up? Shut up!

Fri, 18 Apr 2008 12:50:34 PDT
Oil up! Freak out! Dow up? Shut up! The state-run media in Canada (and the citizen-owned media who do their best to compete with them) all lament, daily (with intra-day lament updates, all day long), the price of a barrel of oil, and the resulting price of gas. (Of course they don’t have the foggiest clue what they’re talking about, but they pretend they do.) Even as I was writing this, the state-owned CBC did a story about the latest rise in gas prices. Apparently it’s getting h

Advice on starting a wiki for your class…

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 20:37:26 PDT
One thing about winning an EduBlog Award is that lots of teachers begin visiting your site, and if they like what they see, they may contact you for advice. This has happened a few times since my class wiki, Welker’s Wikinomics, won the 2007 EduBlog award for Best Wiki. Below is an email I received from a teacher in the states who’s interested in getting into the “Wiki World” next year. Following her message is my reply, which I thought I’d share here since it gives some advice on overcoming
