Pokemon Go Plus Connectivity Issues With Android On Launch.

Pokemon Go has been sweeping the world by storm since its release in July. Today (Sept 16) an accessory, the Pokemon Go Plus, came out to add additional ways to play the game. Sadly for those who have Android devices, your use of the Go Plus may have to wait.

As of writing, only iOS devices and select Droid devices have functionality. Apparently, this was known that this would be the case for a while now but it wasn't announced as much as other information about the Go Plus. Thankfully it looks like there is an update being worked on by Niantic that will hopefully allow all the Droid users functionality who don't currently have it. It will update Android to version 0.37.1 and 1.7.1 for iOS. It is unknown when the update will go live.

To add to the issue of the Go Plus not working for a lot, the device is also in very high demand but has very low quantities nation wide. Currently, GameStop and The Nintendo Store in New York are sold out and unknown when they will be back in stock.When it does work, the Pokemon Go Plus has a lot of fun features. The purpose of it is to allow you to play the game without always having the game open on your phone. Though a series of different colored lights, and vibrations, you can not only catch Pokemon but also collect PokeStops and it will track distance for your eggs and buddy Pokemon candies. The last feature was recently announced, as it was unknown if that was a feature the Go Plus could do. With the announcement of the Apple Watches inclusion of Pokemon Go, people's fears grew that the Go Plus would be a waste of money.

Did you get a Pokemon Go Plus? Is it worth it’s price tag of $34.99? Do you still play Pokemon Go or have all the issues stopped you from enjoying it?

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
