Second Life Grid Status Reports Un candidat ésotériste à la CAQ Après les déclarations de son candidat-vedette Jacques Duchesneau, la CAQ doit composer avec les croyances de son candidat dans Lotbinière-Frontenac, Martin Caron. Amateur d'ésotérisme, Martin Caron a en effet donné des conférences sur la géomancie, une «science divinatoire» qui permettrait de prédire l'avenir en observant la position de cailloux qu'on a projetés sur une surface plane. C'est l'équipe de recherche de l'émission TVA en direct.com qui a découvert le goût du candidat Caron pour l'ésotérisme. Outre la géomancie, Martin Caron serait aussi féru de balancement thérapeutique, d'éveil de l'esprit et de découverte de l'âme et il a publié un livre intitulé La Klé, enseignement thérapeutique, énergétique et mystique. À l'animateur de TVA en direct.com, Richard Martineau, Marcel Caron a parlé de son goût pour la géomancie comme d'un «hobby privé». «Je n'ai jamais fait de métier ou de carrière on fait la bonne aventure aux gens qui m'entouraient.

Second Life Built into the software is a three-dimensional modeling tool based on simple geometric shapes that allows residents to build virtual objects. There is also a procedural scripting language, Linden Scripting Language, which can be used to add interactivity to objects. Sculpted prims (sculpties), mesh, textures for clothing or other objects, animations, and gestures can be created using external software and imported. The Second Life terms of service provide that users retain copyright for any content they create, and the server and client provide simple digital rights management (DRM) functions.[3] However, Linden Lab changed their terms of service in August 2013, to be able to use user-generated content for any purpose. The new terms of service prevents users from using textures from 3rd-party texture services, as some of them pointed out explicitly.[5] Users can also photograph in Second Life with the camera technology the client programs have.

[VIEWER 2 TIP] Shared Media: Show YouTube on a FUL I'm a big fan of narrative arcs, and Shared Media has wrapped up some loose ends very neatly (with other ongoing threads, like privacy, continuing to be covered). I've been asked for YEARS: "How do I play YouTube in Second Life?" Before Shared Media, some very clever Residents devised ways to continually re-fetch the MP4 links that YouTube has made increasingly available for videos on its site. Now we have Flash support with Shared Media, we can show YouTube as-is without any conversion or hosting hassles. BUT! It's cool I can show YouTube, but I ONLY want to show the video. There are several methods to this, but one of the simplest is provided by YouTube itself. See where it says "watch"? You can try clicking on the two URLs in your normal web browser to compare. Or, on a YouTube page, look towards the upper right for an icon with the hover tip "Watch this video in a new window". Other sites may have their own means.
