Binding as an enabling mechanism for cross-modal plasticity sciencedirect.com/science/arti "Multiple sources of connections can provide cross-modal input to the deprived visual regions";

From Fig. 2 caption: "Multiple sources of connections can provide cross-modal input to the deprived visual regions: (1) Thalamic relays: nonvisual thalamic nuclei such as the pulvinar project to the visual cortex and can convey auditory information; (2) Corticocortical projections: feedforward or lateral inputs from the auditory cortex to early visual areas.

And there you have it, the old "Tutor" planes of the Snowbirds will be officially retired after this flying season.
The squadron will be replaced by 2030 according to Minister McGuinty with the CT-157 Siskin II.
It is a turbo-prob plane now moving into place as the RCAF's primary training aircraft.
It is a Swiss-made Pilatus PC-21 aircraft. Last week, the first CT-157 achieved "factory acceptance”, so the timing is no coincidence I'm sure. Looks like these will be the new snowbirds in 2030.
Full CT-157 Siskin II info here:

Federal judges in the Western District of Washington had unanimously appointed Roger Rogoff to be the Justice Department’s top official there,
filling a vacancy that the president has never addressed.
But the Trump administration has largely def…

After my old RTL-SDRv2 v2 died a week ago when it fell into a puddle, together with the Raspi 4B it was connected to, I replaced my whole ADSB setup tonight with a nice antenna for 1090 MHz, 5 m of quality cable and a nice Flightaware Pro Stick Plus.
Raspi now runs Wiedehopf's readsb github.com/wiedehopf/readsb

OHBOY! CHECK OUT THIS JUDGE'S SMACKDOWN OF A HOMELAND SECURITY AGENT!
This is a beautiful, beautiful smackdown of a Department of Homeland Security agent’s request for 5 search warrants in the case in which Don Lemon and colleagues were arrested for going into a church
(you remember that, right? From back in January?)
Keep in mind that the pastor of that church was also an ICE agent.
Following the arrests, Special Agent Timothy Gerber asked the Court to issue fiv…
