Big Brother Spoiler: Winner Of The Second Round Of The Final HoH Competition Is…
September 15, 2013 06:12 AM by Lisa Princ
As we inch closer to the Big Brother finale, the remaining three house guests have been fighting hard for the final HoH spot. Recently, we learned who won the first round, and now, the round two winner has been revealed. Which two house guests will battle it out for the final HoH spot? Spoilers inside!
A few days ago we learned that the first round of battle for the final Hoh spot on Big Brother was an endurance challenge, consisting of the final three on roller blades. While they all struggled not to fall, it was GinaMarie who beat out the guys to win the competition.
That meant that Andy and Spencer competed in the second round, with the winner facing off against GinaMarie in the third round on Wednesday's episode. The second round was a physical and knowledge based competition, and both Andy and Spencer admitted that it was one of the toughest of the season. However, only one of them could walk away as the winner, and that person was Andy! Poor Spencer was overheard saying that he was going to sleep the day away out of depression.
So now, Andy and GinaMarie will face off on Wednesday's finale event, with one of them winning the final HoH. Whoever wins will get to cast the final eviction vote, choosing who will get to go with them to the final two and face the jury. Do you think that Spencer will end getting evicted or going to the final two? Let the countdown to the finale begin!
Who do you think should win Big Brother? We know you have an opinion and we'd love to hear it, so feel free to share your best Big Brother predictions in the comment section below!

out to be a really great competitor.

Iconic Catskills resort to be demolished
The Kutscher resort, one of the remaining remnants of "Jewish Borscht Belt" culture, will be demolished later this month. The Monticello, N.Y. hotel has occupied its space in both the Catskills and Jewish American culture for more than a century. The site opened as the Kutscher's Brothers Farm House in 1907 and was sold for $8.18 million in December 2013 to a company with plans to build a "health and wellness resort."

Beware of black ice, as temperatures continue to drop. Many schools are closed, as ice forms on back roads wet from yesterday's rain. Sidewalks and parking lots may also be icy. If you see a dark spot on a road, assume it is ice. Bridges and overpasses freeze first.

Today Justin Bieber releases Believe, his third studio album, and in the time it's taken for this cup of coffee, which I poured, like, 20 minutes ago, to cool, it's already gone to No. 1 on the iTunes Charts. If that's not swag then it's time for you to really think long and hard about what your definition of swag is. In fact, I'm fairly confident that Justin Bieber's been perfecting his swag game since March 1, 1994. (His mom probably took swag pregnancy vitamins, which she should bottle and sell.)
Some additional evidence that Justin Bieber is running the swag game: If his Believe album doesn't outsell Cher's iconic album of the same name, it'll certainly outswag it. He took Selena Gomez for a ride in a helicopter. (He BAGGED Selena Gomez! SWAG!!1!) He POWERED THROUGH A SHOW AT THE APOLLO THEATER AFTER THE POWER WENT OUT. (Suh-wag.) He hangs with Kanye West, Jay-Z, Tyler, The Creator and Aziz Ansari… AT THE SAME TIME. (Swag x 1 trillion.) And when a hateful glass door tried to outswag him, he harnessed his super-swag powers and BRAVELY HEADBUTTED IT.
If you're still not convinced that Justin Bieber both invented and perfected the art of swag, perhaps these swaggy GIFs will convince you. Still not convinced? Watch "Justin Bieber Live" tonight on MTV.

Ecosystem based Adaptation (EbA) in mountain ecosystem in Nepal
Nepal's national economy and people's livelihoods largely depend on natural resources and ecosystems services. These are increasingly negatively influenced by the effects of climate change, including increased variability on water availability, extreme weather events and natural disasters. Drought, flood, glacial lake outburst floods, avalanches, landslides and forest fires are some climate related disasters that Nepal experiences. In response to this, the Government of Nepal's National Adaptation Programme of Action (NAPA) and other national strategies and action plans have recognized that immediate actions are needed to minimize climate risks to society, economy and ecosystems. In line with NAPA and Government's strategies, the Ecosystem based Adaptation Nepal (EbA) project aims to strengthen the resiliency of ecosystems within these countries and reduce the vulnerability of local communities with particular emphasis on mountain ecosystems...Read More
What have we accomplished so far
- In 2014, interventions in water conservation, land and ecosystem restoration, such as gulley control, riverbank and soil conservation, water source renovation, and green belt establishment benefitted over 2,000 vulnerable people, and conserved over 50 hectares of land.
- 60 + hectares of land conserved across 23 sites to stabilize slopes
- 17 water sources conserved for irrigation, drinking and water recharge
- With an aim to increase awareness among local people and students about environmental conservation, UNDP supported eco clubs and other groups to celebrate Soil Conservation and Environment Days by organizing activities such as tree plantation.
- UNDP also supported the Western Regional Forest Directorate to draft working guidelines for Panchase protection forest.

Seeing as how all but about one thread on the front page is MBB . . .
PLEASE post anything in this tread that isn't about MBB and who our next coach will be.
Who wants to start?
I'd kind of like the sun to shine at some point
Fact. Foo Fighters have some of the best music videos known to man.
Kind of a strange request considering how big of day it is for Iowa State's MBB program...
How about we talk about one of the biggest stories related to Iowa State in a long time... There is a reason the front page is loaded with Mens Basketball threads.
I went to see "Hot Tub Time Machine" and thought it was bad! I was disappointed in it!
I have been listening to a lot of Eric Hutchinson. He is good.
Great thread...
Saw my favorite band, Comeback Kid, play at Vaudeville last night. It was awesome.

According to a new report released by the Entertainment Software Association (ESA) this week, 48 percent of adults age 50 and older say that they play video games. The data comes from new research released by the ESA called "Gamers Over 50 Study: You're Never Too Old to Play." The data in the report is based on a survey of 1,800 adults age 50 and older conducted by the ESRB. Those 1,800 individuals said that they played video games on at least one system or device and identified themselves as "gamers." The ESA survey found that 80 percent of these gamers played video games on a weekly basis, while 45 percent played on a daily basis.
Gamers older than 50 also said that they preferred games that mimicked traditional forms of play such as card or tile games (56 percent), puzzle/logic games (52 percent), and trivia, word, and board games (27 percent). A majority of respondents (92 percent) said that they preferred to play at home, and most game play was done during the evening hours (55 percent). Finally, among those with children living in their household, 63 percent said that their children influenced which games they buy, with 62 percent saying their children help them learn about new games or game technology.
"Video games are enjoyed by millions of consumers of all ages. The popularity of video games is expected given the innovation and sheer entertainment this industry offers," said Michael D. Gallagher, president and CEO of ESA, the trade association representing U.S. computer and video game publishers. "Across all game platforms and genres, Americans age 50 and over are exercising their minds and bodies, connecting with family members, and having fun with video games."

Dieters Get Boost From Hot Pepper-Like Compound in Study
April 28, 2010 (Anaheim, Calif.) -- Adding some spicy hot peppers to a healthy meal isn't a magic bullet, but it may help you burn a few extra calories and a bit more fat, according to a new study.
Researchers from the University of California Los Angeles tested a compound related to the capsaicin found in hot peppers to see if it could give dieters a boost. It's called dihydrocapsiate or DCT, and it's not spicy hot like jalapenos.
They wanted to see if the pepper-like compound, by heating up the body, could translate to better calorie and fat burning.
"DCT caused an increase in calories burned after a test meal,'' study author David Heber, MD, PhD, founding director of the UCLA Center for Human Nutrition, tells WebMD. The boost, however, was modest -- translating to about 100 extra calories a day for a 110-pound woman and 200 extra calories for a 200-pound man, he says. Fat burning was up a bit, too.
The findings were presented Tuesday at EB2010, the annual Experimental Biology meeting here.
This latest research follows other studies finding hot peppers may boost metabolism or dampen appetite.
Peppers for Weight Loss Study
Although DCT is structurally related to capsaicin from hot peppers, it doesn't give that "bite," says Amy Lee, MD, a research fellow at UCLA who presented the findings at the meeting.
The researchers started with 51 men and women but finished with 33, after accounting for dropouts, Lee says. All were obese and on a liquid meal replacement regimen that had just 800 calories daily. The low-calorie allotment was a primary reason for dropping out, she says.
Dieters were randomly assigned to take either a placebo capsule or DCT in a 3 milligram or 9 milligram dose, without knowing which they were taking.
At the start of the study, and four weeks later, the researchers measured the dieters' metabolic rate and their energy expenditure (or heat production) after a test meal of 400 liquid calories.
People on the 9 milligram capsule had an increase in energy expenditure or heat production and increased fat burning, compared to those taking placebo, Lee says.

Swayin' While Prayin'
I sway.
Why? you may say.
The Yiddish word: shuckle.
Is there a Hebrew equivalent?
It's how I saw people praying growing up.
I don't know another way.
I've tried to stop.
It happens by itself.
Sometimes, the emotion of my words gets into my body and takes over.
Or, I'm thinking about my grocery list (oy!).
Then, the sway/pray wakes me up.
Shake! Awake!
Think about where you are. (Not Heinen's.)
Are you not ashamed
to be swaying
like a saint
when your mind
grows faint?
Close your eyes.
Sway. Be silent. Let your body remind your heart.
To listen.
Take part.
Be on the same page.
Be one:
Words. Mind. Heart. Body.
Sway, and pray.
Or: pray, and sway.
Either way.

One of the reasons for why we sway when we pray is because it is said that our neshama ( soul ) is compared to a flame, and a flame is always moving around. When we pray, we are connecting with our soul...hence the swaying....ReplyDeleteReplies

Week in Review—South Bend
|U.S. Attorney's Office November 08, 2013
SOUTH BEND, IN—The United States Attorney's Office announced the following activity in federal court:
Tad Vandermark, 52, of Syracuse, Indiana, pled guilty before Magistrate Judge Christopher A. Nuechterlein to the felony offense of production of child pornography. Magistrate Nuechterlein is recommending that the district court accept the tendered guilty plea. Parties have 14 days in which to object to the magistrate judge's recommendation. This charge was filed as a result of an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Sentencing has been set for February 6, 2014. This case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney John Maciejczyk.
If convicted in court, any specific sentence to be imposed will be determined by the judge after a consideration of federal sentencing statutes and the Federal Sentencing Guidelines.
Paul Page, 49, of Indianapolis, Indiana, a defendant in the case U.S. V Bales et al., was sentenced by District Judge Robert L. Miller, Jr. to two years' probation and to pay $10,000 in fines after pleading guilty to the felony offense of scheming to commit wire fraud. According to documents filed in this case, Page devised a scheme to defraud a bank. When Page learned he needed to make a significant down payment to get a mortgage on a building he intended to buy and rent out to the state of Indiana, another person loaned him the money. Mr. Page promised to repay the loan out of the proceeds when he sold the building. Page knew that banks would require a disclosure of competing loans on a piece of property and knew how to avoid disclosing this information to the bank. Page "spun" the ownership issue with the bank and then signed false documents and false certifications. Page failed to inform the bank that a third party had loaned him the down payment in papers Page completed for the mortgage loan. This case was the result of an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. This case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Jesse Barrett.

The forces of the typical Thai spirit house didn't seem effective enough during the building of the hotel, so spiritual persons advised that it should be replaced with the four-headed image of Brahma or Phra Phrom in Thai. There have been no further hitches since then, and the shrine has become famous for bringing good fortune. The name Erawan comes from Brahma's thirty-three headed elephant. People offer colourful flower garlands, lotus, incense and candles. Often, if a wish has been granted, people thank the spirits by donating teak elephants or commissioning the classical Thai dancers and live orchestra.

It seems the old idea of taxing sugary soft drinks is once again back in the headlines as a way to pay for health reform, while fighting obesity at the same time.
A group of doctors, nutritionists and economists says a penny an ounce tax on sugary drinks could raise almost 15 billion dollars a year for health programs.
Harvard School of Public Health Dr. Walter Willett says, "It's only fair that people consuming these beverages help share the cost of the diseases that they're putting upon themselves."
The impact these drinks may or may not have when it comes to our health is up for debate. The questions I have...do you think a so called "Sugar Tax" should be implemented on soft drinks to help pay for health care?

I have many processes in a pipeline style application. Each time I launch the application there will be a different number and order of the processes that make up the pipeline.
My intent is to start them via a master batch file, however I would like to run them without a console window. I could have one console for the batch but I would rather not clutter the user's experience with a 9+ different console windows.
Is there a way to achieve this without installing a service? Or perhaps having a transient service (if that is possible)?


text: British extreme metallers CRADLE OF FILTH have set "Darkly Darkly Venus Aversa" as the title of their new album, due in North America on November 9 via Nuclear Blast Records. The CD will be issued in Europe on October 22 through Peaceville Records on the band's own AbraCadaver imprint.CRADLE OF FILTH — consisting of Dani Filth on vocals, Paul Allender and James McIlroy on guitar, David Pybus on bass, Martin Skaroupka on drums and Ashley Ellyllon on keyboards — recently entered Monkey Puzzle studios near Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk to start work on the follow-up to 2008's "Godspeed On The Devil's Thunder". CRADLE OF FILTH remain stalwarts to the satanic horror ethos by again composing a full-blown concept album, this time based on Adam's first wife, the lascivious Demoness Lilith; throwing Medieval nuns, Knights Templars, Greek mythology and lashings of sex, occult lore and violent bloodshed into the smelting pot, to create a darkly erotic nightmare set to their unique scope of supreme vampyric metal. For this release, the band wanted mastery of their own destiny, choosing to release the album on their very own AbraCadaver label in conjunction with Peaceville Records, home to such illicit luminaries as DARKTHRONE, KATATONIA, MY DYING BRIDE, BLOODBATH and GALLHAMMER, among many others. Vocalist Dani Filth has described the move as being "a choice to move away from the artistic restrictions/mindless inhibitions imposed by dwelling on a major label" and cites the current financial clime as "the perfect opportunity to start doing things our own way again, with the added benefit of being a far bigger fish in a proverbial pool, surrounded by people who have been handpicked to get the job best done. And more importantly... who still are hungry for the taste of music." Having recently published the long-awaited "Gospel Of Filth" grimoire of all things ghastly and ghoulish, the band will finish the new album, undertake its heavy press schedule and then embark on a full world tour in its support.

An odd podcast issue
For a while now, I have had an odd issue with podcasts. It will take me a minute to try and describe what happens, but I will try to be clear...
Occasionally while playing a podcast on my ZHD, the audio will suddenly change to the audio from something else (usually another podcast, but it is not unusual for it to become the audio of a song that is loaded on my HD). The majority of the time it will never switch back to the original audio, but occasionally it will. The screen art never changes and displays the correct art for the podcast I selected, it simply switches to the audio to something else on the device as if it were "spliced in" like an old cassette. This problem comes up now and again and has since I bought it last April. The only way to correct it is to re-sync with my computer. Even then a simple re-sync is not always effective. Sometimes I need to delete the podcast from the device (change my transfer settings) and then transfer it back. The most frustrating part is that the only way to guarantee myself several weeks to a couple of months without this occurring is to reinstall the firmware (even go as far as to delete all content, forget the player, reinstall firmware, then reload). I am a heavy podcast listener and it is what I spend about 1/2 my time using the HD for.
Anyone have any ideas? I love this device and it is better overall than any of the other MP3 players I have used over the years (several iPods, 3 Creative players, Archos, Sansa, iRiver and even going back to a Neuros I). This issue is just a very frustrating and ultimately time consuming problem. Particularly if I go the complete wipe and reload route (can take a full weekend before all is said and done including bio's, pics, etc).
Thanks in advance.

I have the exact same problem. It's so annoying. Nothing I've tried has cured it either. I wish I knew what the cause was.

I have never had this issue (frequent podcast use) it sounds very very strange. I don't even know where to begin helping...The fact that the firmware restore didn't help is disheartening.

Matthew: I'm glad to see that I am not the only one with this problem.
Moonrakerone: A firmware restore does usually end up solving the issue. At least temporarily. In the course of the year (approximately) that I have owned the device, it has occurred around 4-5 times. Usually when I resolve it, I go several weeks without it occurring again.
I had mentioned this issue on the official Zune boards a while back, but nothing was ever really resolved. And now that those boards have changed to something less usable, I don't believe that I will make the attempt again.
I sync my device quite frequently and my best guess is that eventually it corrupts during this process in some way. Syncing is hard. I get that. Doesn't make it OK or less frustrating however. I just wish that I could get some sort of answer as to what the issue was/is or at least an official "we're working on it"...
Bump in the hopes that someone will see this and offer some insight (like Dave or anyone else with more tech knowledge than I). It is extremely frustrating that the only thing that I have been able to do to help when this occurs is a full restore of the device and content which can literally take a couple of days start to finish.
Help me Obi Wan, you're my only hope...
I am NOT a techie person at all, but I've had similar problems. I download a ton of Podcasts and every morning I download the ESPN Around the Horn and PTI podcasts. I've had them both have clicks like every 3-4 seconds and times where when they go to the commercial break and come back, while listening to PTI I'll hear Around the Horn in the background. Very faint, but can hear it if I pay close enough attention.
Every time, it's been when downloading and synching both podcasts at the same time and I think that has something to do with it. I subscribed to both and had them automatically sync to my player each morning when I plug it in. When I turned off this option and manually download each episode and then sync the "podcasts I choose" the problem seemed to disappear. This was discovered in error because I hook up my Zune to several PCs and kept having it sync old podcasts I already listened to, but the particular PC would think I never downloaded it or something.
If you do the subscribe and auto-sync options, try switching it to manual and maybe it will work for you.
This is interesting. I have the same problem, except not with podcasts. My problem occurs with music. Occasionally, when I am listening to an album, the next track starts playing something else, but the album information stays the same.
One time I had it where I deleted an album, then later in the day, I went to listen to a completely unrelated album, and halfway through listening, it started playing a song from the album I had deleted, but still had the correct album art for the song that was supposed to be playing.
Totaly weird.
Was that on the Zune itself, or in the software on your PC? If I've deleted a bunch of stuff going from folder to folder and deleting them, I've had happen where it deletes them, but keeps up the picture and info, but associates another album with it. Closing the application and re-opening always fixed it for me. I think it was too much multitasking since I was staggering the deletion of the albums and it was trying to re-order the structure while I was deleting other stuff here and there.
NEVER had it happen on my player, but have had it happen regularly in the software when using my 30GB Zune...have only had the HD a few days so I really haven't been deleting from my collection yet since then.
It happens on my Zune HD. Just connecting it to the Zune software and allowing it to fix itself solves the problem.
I believe this is because the Zune HD doesn't actually delete songs or podcast when you delete them from the player itself, it just hides them and marks them for removal on next sync. So they are really still there. And knowing how flash memory (and even how hard drives) store things, the above problems with podcasts and songs is totally possible.
jdgrzy has found the correct solution to his problem, which is to let the software remove the song (which is only just hidden from the player interface) on next sync.
But for Pierre LaStank, I recommend removing both podcasts that are the problem and syncing them one at a time. And LittleDaveJ hit on the right method by doing it manually.
This problem has everything to do with how information is written on the flash/hard drive memory and has been around since day dot of MP3 players.

I's not sure about this...
Most times when this has happened to me, a simple re-sync has corrected the problem. I never delete items from the player itself, only through the software, so don't think this has anything to do with it. The shows that mix together (podcast mashup!) are new and not previously listened to and are not always the same shows. I have used various players over the years going all the way back to a Neuros I through several Creative players, a few iPods, sansa, Archos, Zune etc. I've been an avid podcast listener for the vast majority of that time since they started to take off. That being said, I have never, not once, had this occur on any device other than my Zune HD. My guess is that it is periodically corrupting during sync. but have no explanation or idea as to why? It has happened on various PCs that I have tried as my "home base" for the Zune. It has occurred with all of them at some point. I guess I was hoping for some input/opinions from Dave or someone with some actual experience in the nitty gritty and not just a user.
Perhaps it's my Zune... Lately I have noticed that I have a bit of the orange shown at the end of my sync bar on the summary page (what usually appears when there are items selected to sync, but have not been put on the device yet). Yet everything has transferred over... Hmmm... I have tried several things to figure this out, including wiping the zune, reinstalling the firmware and resyncing from scratch. Still end up with this being shown.
I do love this device, but there really are some odd things that I need to put up with that kind of ruin the user experience a bit. I've had it just under a year at this point so these issues really do temper my feelings when using it. A bit gun shy about problems.
Thanks to everyone for the comments.
I have some video podacasts that they say they are like 13 min long when in reality they are like 8 min long. And it makes it so when you try to fast forward or rewind it just skips around in either direction and the bar on the bottom that you drag doesnt work.

Bump in the hopes that this post is seen by someone in the know. It happened to me yesterday. I was listening to Friday's Chris Moyles podcast and suddenly it began playing Minor Threat. The screen never changed and still showed the Chris Moyles podcast art and title, etc. Just the audio suddenly changed to Minor Threat.
Please please please, for the love of god please someone have a clue as I am out of ideas.

Rythm guitar
What should one know to be a rythm guitarist in a rock band?
different voicings of chords
not to show off
sometimes not playing is more powerful than playing.
Power Chords
Basic Open Chords
How not to try and steal spotlight
How to count a beat
Should do fine.
Learn solos.
all kinds of chords, basic scales, keeping the rhythm (duh), to not steal attention from the vocals and lead guitar, theory. probably more but i don't want to type anymore.
Learn to drive a van and carry the heavy stuff... Just Kidding.
Doodle is right. It's really an underrated position. Practice until you can play really tight and anticipate the changes. Rhythm guitar's are very important for that layered sound. Good Luck.
Thanks for all your advice, it's been really helpful.
yes, yes, basic open chords and power chords...
ALL OPEN CHORDS, power chords, ALL BAR CHORDS, ALL NON-BAR, NON-OPEN, NON-POWER chords. counting in your head, keeping your rhythm tight and clean.
personally, i always play rhythm guitar when i play guitar, cuz i cant play lead worth a ****.
Okay, this may be a stupid question, but when I read these Rythm Guitar Threads, I always see: Keep the Rhythm, and count the beat...
I dont really get how the rhythm guitarist needs to count the beat, can somebody tell me. I do know that they shouldn't do anything flashy, but thats about it.

Because if the rhythm guitar and the lead guitar go off-sync it sounds like a cat in a blender.
Matt Chavie
They're saying that you are a fancier bassist. As in you play a steady string of notes/chords, and act as a backing track to the lead guitar. You act as a piece of paper for him to draw all over.
It's hard. You mustnt get carried away with the vocals. Just shut your ears and work like a clock. And learn how to construct any chord :)
Keeping the beat with strumming and keeping the same strummin gpattern in a song.
I sometimes change it up, without noticing it and its really a bad habit. I mean, it stays in time perfectly fine but it should subconscious that it repeats.
And not important depending on genre, but triplets help.
keeping the beat in a band isn't that hard, just follow the drums.
Learn a lot of rythm patterns and some theory this way if your lead says: I want to jam in C, you can make a rythm right on the spot.
Feel bad inc.
Learn basic open chords and power chords. Basic bar chords to. You dont need a huge amount of chords for most rock bands tho. Also I would suggest theory, also learn some lead guitar parts so you can relate to your lead guitarist, this is very important to at least know some lead...
Paleo Pete
Most of it has already been covered, good job guys.
As for the question about counting...I don't consciously count 1,2,3,4 any more, it's automatically there in my head, but you need to know when the chord progression changes, and you need to know when the lead comes in, and vocals, so you can follow the dynamics of the song. It always gets a bit louder during leads, quieter during the verses, play accordingly. And if the lead player wants to drop back and play some laid back, quiet stuff, be ready to drop your volume accordingly.
Here's where being able to count comes in...if you stop to work out the details of a song and the band wants some emphasis on a certain chord and says right here on 2, you need to know which beat 2 is.
In general though, it's just to be able to keep in time and keep your place in the song.
As far as general advice, I think it's mostly been covered. Follow the dynamics, blend in, know your chords and chord progressions, be able to lock into what the bass and drums are doing and stay there. It's not called a rhythm section for nothing...
Learn to play clean and distorted, and keep the volume level down while distorted so the lead guitar can come out on top and be heard. That goes along with working with the dynamics. Stay on top of your tuning, you'll be playing chords all night and one instrument out of tune ruins everything. It's more noticeable with chords than with leads.
For a rock band, your most common sound will probably be a slightly overdriven clean sound, work with your amp and effects until you can peg it every time. My favorite rhythm sound is a low wattage (30 or less ) tube amp cranked to 10. Fender Princeton or Peavey Classic 30 should be great, I've played alongside a Princeton, guitar and amp was all the guy needed.
Be steady as a rock. Practice with a metronome so you can develop good timing, lock into a rhythm part and don't let go even if the neighbor's dog starts yanking on your pants leg.
A good rhythm player is very difficult to find, most people can't resist the urge to show off and try and play lead. That's the main reason I stay away from two guitar bands, it's just too much hassle getting them to work together instead of turning it into a guitar battle. If you can be the best rhythm player in town, every band in town will be looking for you.
Okay, I'm starting to see what a good Rhythm Guitarist does now. I was listening to some songs last night at like 1 ( :rolleyes: ) and I figured out why counting is important.
As for one more thing, when I listen to some live performences, I BARELY hear the Rhythm Guitar, but in their ear monitors, could they hear themselves fine? :confused:
Thanks, again.
Paleo Pete
As for one more thing, when I listen to some live performences, I BARELY hear the Rhythm Guitar, but in their ear monitors, could they hear themselves fine?
Usually yes, and in fact a lot of the time they hear themselves fine without the ear monitors, the stage mix is not what you hear out front, it goes through the PA first and most sound guys mix the rhythm guitar too low to suit me, I think it should be heard, but not loud enough to be annoying or detract from the lead or vocals.
It depends on how you set up. If you don't mic your amps, monitors only carry vocals, and the amps have to carry the sound, and if you can't hear your amp you're out of luck. I've only played in one bar band that ran everything through the PA and that was because we all wanted GOOD sound quality out front and had a sound guy who could get it, he was an audio nut, wanted it to sound just like listening to the album, but louder. He got it.
We didn't run any guitars back through the monitors, didn't need to since we could all hear our own amps and each other. Many profressional bands run everything into the PA and back through the monitors, so in reality you could show up with a 10 watt practice amp and play in the Astrodome. Just run it through the monitors.
Usually you won't be doing that though, so you'll need a guitar amp with enough power to hold its own onstage, usually 30 watts (tubes) or more, twice that if you run a solid state amp. Tube amps do sound better, I'll never own another solid state again. The trick with rhythm guitar is to get your volume level so you can hear it, and blend with the band too, without drowning out the lead guitar or overpowering the vocals, That takes attention to your sound and volume level, and being able to work with the dynamics of a song. With the band I mentioned above I could whisper into the mic and you could hear it out front, we were that particular. We used dynamics a lot, dropping the volume way down sometimes, so I or the other guitar player could do those really quiet licks you hear sometimes, then pushing it to all out for a rocking song, especially to close out a set or the night. When you drop it back to really quiet, the rhythm guitar has to still be there and not overpower the lead...that takes practice, it's not as easy to do as you might think, and it's one of the reasons a top notch rhythm player is worth his or her weight in gold.
So, when you see live performances, the ear monitors or wedge type in front of the band, are always for vocals, and whether they also carry the instruments depends on how the band sets up. If you don't see mics in front of the guitar amps' speakers, it's only vocals in the monitors, they depend on the amps to get the onstage volume. In both cases, yes, you should be able to hear yourself.

NEW YORK (AP) — New Orleans safety Rafael Bush has been fined $21,000 by the NFL for his hit on Seattle's Percy Harvin during an NFC divisional-round game.
The league confirmed the fine Friday.
Harvin has been ruled out of Sunday's NFC championship game because of a concussion. The wide receiver did not practice all week and was not cleared through the league's concussion protocol.
Harvin was belted by Bush on Seattle's opening possession last Saturday, a hit that drew a 15-yard penalty. He left the game later in the first half after a second hit in which he was jumping for a pass in the end zone. Harvin banged his head on the turf when he came down as he was being hit by safety Malcolm Jenkins.
