FindMeHere is a simple app with a direct purpose. It finds your location using your GPS and Google maps and allows you to copy and paste that location to where ever you may need it. Be it email, SMS, BlackBerry messenger or where ever else you can think of on your BlackBerry. Great for those times when you need to let people know where you are.
Maybe you are meeting friends at a bar and they're unsure of where it is, fire up FindMeHere and send them your location instantly. Simple application with a simple purpose. That I like. FindMeHere sells for only $.99/cents in the CrackBerry app store but the good folks from BerryCodes have given us 50 copies to give away to our readers. Just give us an example of how or where you could use FindMeHere and you're entered in to win one of 50 copies. Good luck folks!
[Enter once folks, duplicate entries will be ignored. We'll draw up the winners in a few days]

Mr.Hutz Feb 15, 2010 at 6:58 pm

loreburne Feb 15, 2010 at 6:58 pm
Can I Have one please?
RedneckBB Feb 15, 2010 at 6:58 pm
put me down for one :)
I would use it to tell my friends where I'm at if I'm at someone's house whose address I don't know.
bigdaddy87 Feb 15, 2010 at 6:58 pm
My job requires me to meet with various clients in the field, this would be a quick and easy way to show them my exact location. Brilliant!

Bold_until_Hybrid_Comes Feb 15, 2010 at 6:59 pm
ME ME ME ME ME PLEASE. May I have a free copy
gemsong Feb 16, 2010 at 1:32 am
That would be an awesome app. My friend and I meet once a month, she's from a few towns away and I don't drive so we always get lost either together or meeting up so this would help us find each other. We both have blackberries and love google maps, this would be great.
musicandnumbers Feb 15, 2010 at 7:00 pm
I'd use it.
jmelzie Feb 15, 2010 at 7:00 pm
It sounds great hope I get a copy
mhoogasian Feb 15, 2010 at 7:00 pm
My family owns a funeral home and sometimes we have removals are really out in the middle of nowhere and being able to find myself / get directions if I get lost would REALLY help!!!!
Thank you even if I don't win

krueger67 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:04 pm
There is a common practice in Latin America called express kidnaping. This application will help you to quickly send your location to your family to help solve the case.
pcadena Feb 15, 2010 at 7:04 pm
i live in Colombia, we dont have that security problems like years ago, but i would prefer to show my position every time i can. and this program would be perfect.
Solace07 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:05 pm
thsi seems like it might be an awesome little app. this would be great to try out.
yeah i'll try
TallyHo Feb 15, 2010 at 7:05 pm
Awesome app. I could definitely use this.
Smitty134 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:05 pm
I'm over here
Tech8130 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:07 pm
I love simple apps and could go for a copy of this one.
robarias Feb 15, 2010 at 7:07 pm
Using google maps has done things easier, but this app will make things easier when you are on your way to a party and you do not have the correct address. You send the location to a friend already there and he can guide you easier... We don't even have zip codes or house or street numbers, so do the math how we give directions.
lakerz4lyfe Feb 15, 2010 at 7:09 pm
if you're stranded in the middle of nowhere and need assistance!
TurboTiger Feb 15, 2010 at 7:10 pm
I've love one.
theduelies Feb 15, 2010 at 7:10 pm
Barhopping downtown. You can't talk on the phone in noisy bars. And who wants to be texting directions in a fun bar? I'd use it for sure!
sjkimberly Feb 15, 2010 at 7:11 pm
I'd like to win! Thnx.
fritz269 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:11 pm
Sometimes I wait somewhere but I want to walk and explore the area and I find it hard to explain to someone on how to get to where I am going. With this, I would be able to email them where I am at.
dnlgee Feb 15, 2010 at 7:11 pm
I'd use it to let my neighbours know where I'm watching them from.. I'll just make sure I have a good hiding spot.
estorm09 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:12 pm
pick me pick me
ro1224 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:12 pm
Well I was sure to see that at least 50 ppl had comments, but not so. What the heck, I could always use a license to an awesome app like FindMeHere. Best of all it comes from the awesome folks at CrackBerry.com (shameful promotional effort, yep - that's me!!!) :D
jcorv58 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:13 pm
Sounds pretty handy, hand one to me please.
suself Feb 15, 2010 at 7:13 pm

KennyGee Feb 15, 2010 at 7:18 pm

I would use it since I am a delivery driver so my boss could know where I was when I am out on deliveries.
klziegler Feb 15, 2010 at 7:21 pm
I would love a copy!
Nomad6677 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:21 pm
Looks like an amazing app!
alikat979 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:21 pm
This would be great, as then my husband would not be able to use the excuse"he can't find the shoe shop I'm in" when I need him to pay with HIS credit card, lol
lepscrack Feb 15, 2010 at 7:22 pm
Pretty please!
DBabskie Feb 15, 2010 at 7:22 pm

Pretty please?
Stormo Feb 15, 2010 at 7:23 pm
i really waant one!
BB Musketeers Feb 15, 2010 at 7:25 pm
It would come in handy at the amusement park, when family members are trying to link up again.
peak34 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:25 pm
Seems like it would be a good way to tag photos with location.
Rinkrat63 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:29 pm
Great app for a parent with teenaged kids.
lagoman Feb 15, 2010 at 7:29 pm
Drive a truck for a living and she always wants to know where I am. This app would be perfect. My wife would be a very happy person.
ADberry Feb 15, 2010 at 7:29 pm
With the # of roadtrips I do, I could use this when traveling to coordinate with people traveling in another car with me.
Pick Me... Pick Me! Why?...because I fly planes. (Not that it really matters)
martinl1989 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:31 pm
I would use this for my band. I'd put where we're playing a gig so that anybody that wishes to come see us (fans on Facebook/Twitter etc) will know exactly where the venue is.
crwmlw#IM Feb 15, 2010 at 7:31 pm
Actually being on decoy missions for my job and not being able to take our police radios with us this would be a great tool for me to have. I appreciate it.
CooperDogg Feb 15, 2010 at 7:32 pm
I am a skier and I can never find where my friends are and I have to call them at the bottom of the hill. This could be a life saver for me!
LouciferLaFlaire Feb 15, 2010 at 7:32 pm
A google map related program of this nature has drawn my interest! Hope to check it out if I don't win :)

PierreC Feb 15, 2010 at 7:32 pm
This application would be great as client always wants to know where I am so that my bill at the end of the month does not include time that I spent at the coffee shop.
chubbrock Feb 15, 2010 at 7:33 pm
Find me here on crackberry!
dlcole Feb 15, 2010 at 7:34 pm
If Verizon ever releases the 9650 I would never be LOST again with FindMeHere!
This seems like it could be useful.
I often go out with friends and we sometimes take different cars. Most of them have smartphones so being able to send them my location would be awesome and convenient.
bigpolla04 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:35 pm
hey ...please pick me cos im moving to spain in a few months and this would come in very handy ...
cm99xj Feb 15, 2010 at 7:35 pm

scuebydue Feb 15, 2010 at 7:39 pm
I'd love to have one of these. Sounds like it could be a great program.
rpanicke Feb 15, 2010 at 7:39 pm
This would be great for a college student such as myself. I can wake up drunk and send my location to my buddy to pick me up! I don't have $.99 for the app b/c I spent it @ the bars so pick me! :D
hkittredge Feb 15, 2010 at 7:40 pm
Almost every weekend I go geocaching with my friends and I always want to tell them where I am but I never can accurately. With FindMeHere they could find me on their iPhones and Blackberries with out me having to call them.
Cool- this will come in handy for this year's Cannonball Run! :)
pottongs Feb 15, 2010 at 7:40 pm
this app looks really awesome
steven252000 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:41 pm

sc2613 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:41 pm
I always get lost, I need that!!!!
kjay1303 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:43 pm
I would love to use it as I am a typical female who always has to describe directions to my friends and family as "you know, the big place behind the mcdonalds down from the icecream place...no, wait, it's near that chemist on the corner near the school..." haha... you would be helping me to save my loved ones the headache of having to put up with my terrible lack of direction skills!!
Thanks for the competition!
bmw12345 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:44 pm
Could i have one as gift for my lunar new year?

hopefulfarm Feb 15, 2010 at 7:48 pm
Fun app, enter me please!
gt500driver Feb 15, 2010 at 7:48 pm
I'd use FindMeHere when traveling home so I can let people know exactly where I am easily, instead of saying "I'm somewhere around the middle of nowhere, probably to the left of nowhere, actually I'm sure i'm to the left of nowhere."
vpwdoc Feb 15, 2010 at 7:50 pm
Pick me!
shinbone Feb 15, 2010 at 7:50 pm
Been looking for an app like this ever since I got rid of VZNav - but it only worked with others with VZNav as well. This app sounds good.
Dylan7620 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:52 pm
I'm always having house parties and when I give them directions people are always getting confused with some streets having two names. Seems people are so used to the way google maps or mapquest gives them directions it just makes sense to give them a pasted version. I even tried screen capture to mms people but only took black pictures.
MHBlink8 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:53 pm
Looks pretty cool. Pick me!
pastormarksc Feb 15, 2010 at 7:53 pm
As a member of our church staff we have meetings or functions off site or even out of town. Since I arrange most of the meetings this would be an outstanding asset. You can't imagine how many people do not read the directions that you conscientiously provide for them in the printed material that ends up in their luggage.
This would be a great tool for a needy administrative pastor!!!
chustle925 Feb 15, 2010 at 7:55 pm
This app would really come in handy,especially if I won it..
harringg Feb 15, 2010 at 7:58 pm
Out running errands, need to come back later to pickup something else and want to send the kids. Tag my location while out and send it to the kids so they can find where I was at.
Anything to make it easier. :)
Kerzhan Feb 15, 2010 at 7:59 pm
I travel all over TX and most of my friends aren't in TX, so I can use this app to show them where I am at any given time... pretty cool!
Tora58 Feb 15, 2010 at 8:00 pm
My work requires much travel. Sometimes my family will meet me in the city I'm working in for the day. I would use this to send them my location to meet for lunch/dinner, stc.
daniel8877 Feb 15, 2010 at 8:00 pm

Blackberry is getting better and better thanks to the developers
w_bovine Feb 15, 2010 at 8:22 pm
I could use this program to send my location to my friend Mark. While he's on the way to meet me I could hide in a tree and wait for him. When he shows up I could jump him from up in the tree and take all his money, which I would then promptly spend on...donuts! I might even feel sorry enough for him to throw a nice maple bar his way.
Cool One could be lost and found..:)
MDBerry969 Feb 15, 2010 at 8:26 pm

This is a great app. I could tell my wife where to pick me up after a long day of surfing the bars & pubs.
bigcrownvic99 Feb 15, 2010 at 8:33 pm
yeah i could use it if i got into a reck and needed a tow truck or the police if i didn't know where i was..
Happy Chinese Lunar Year folks. Now, find me here and give me the software to start the new year...lol.

pbsbelle Feb 15, 2010 at 8:40 pm
Many times I've had to travel to places in small towns and then have to give others directions to my location. This would help me give more precise directions than "look for the firestation, now turn...no not the garage! Go back! No, turn left, wait which way are you going?"
volhawk Feb 15, 2010 at 8:41 pm
Great to have and be able to use in new cities/locations.

Pick me! Pick Me!
breadslice Feb 15, 2010 at 8:53 pm
I'd imagine it would be really good to keep track of where you've been visually, such as traveling on vacation.
Galamir Feb 15, 2010 at 8:53 pm
I would use this when on my bike
If a friends car breaks down
To guide people to places my band is playing at
The possibilities are endless!
rickforwreaths Feb 15, 2010 at 8:53 pm
I can use the Find Me app when I Freecycle. ~ : )
lazydogrex Feb 15, 2010 at 8:55 pm
This could come in handy as we are looking at rural properties spread across a fairly wide area. I could use the app to pin point various locations and then have a record and directions for future use. Thanks for the 50 free copies!
jay_man33 Feb 15, 2010 at 8:56 pm
Can't find Meeee :-P
slater22 Feb 15, 2010 at 8:57 pm
Where am i?
I dunno why don't you FindMeHere
Stuffdeer Feb 15, 2010 at 8:59 pm
I ride my motorcycle quite a bit, and being only 19 and living at home...my parents want to know where I am. It'd be so awesome to pull over and just be able to copy and paste it, then trying to pull up google maps, find what city I am in, and then create a text message, and send it.
I was recently at the beach, and my friend needed to know my location in order to meet with me. It would have made meeting each other a hundred times easier if I had this app!
estrickle Feb 15, 2010 at 9:05 pm
I just Moved to Austin, Texas. We still get Lost once in awhile. And have trouble explaining exacally where i am when asked. I could use this to give my family an acurate location with out the hassel and stress.

WannabIna Feb 15, 2010 at 9:31 pm
Not only would this be a powerful tool for emergency situations...
but it would be awesome to be on beautiful supercell storm and share location with others as well as pinpointing spot during tropical cyclone for other chasers!
Smiliey Feb 15, 2010 at 9:19 pm
because when i get black out drunk and i need some one to find me, it will be much easier for me. and for them =)
Torrential Feb 15, 2010 at 9:19 pm
If you're at a party or other social event, and someone is coming in from out of town, you could use FindMeHere to instantly send them the event location.
betts613 Feb 15, 2010 at 9:19 pm
Sounds like a good app. for those of us who are directionally challenged!!!
ldalcantara Feb 15, 2010 at 9:20 pm
Please pick me..! That's a great app to have
I left my family and friends in Toronto to start a new family in Vancouver by marrying, now my wife, who is from Vancouver. Being new here, I rely heavily on my cars built in gps but I can't always be in my car. this app would help a lot with navigating through a new city.

Throw me a code
timothy918 Feb 15, 2010 at 9:34 pm
I would use find me here to locate my family when we're at disney world.
This App would be extremely helpful next time I find myself in a drunken stooper at 4:00AM, needing a lift home, but too drunk to articulate to the designated driver as to precisely which ditch I am currently face down in.
SlimGuy78 Feb 15, 2010 at 9:34 pm
Put me down for a copy ...
unchained01 Feb 15, 2010 at 9:36 pm
please enter me in the find me contest I am a railroad conductor and this would be great addition to my apps
i travel a lot and being able to text someone my location in case i get lost in a city im not familiar with would be awesome!
This would help my husband and I find each other especially when I'm trying to figure out what his ETA is because he's always late.

I drive from Toledo,Ohio to Detroit,Michigan at least four to seven days a week and most of the people I deal with are natives to MI. It would be nice to send them my location instead of always trying to explain where I am so they can try to help navigate me to where they are. Looks like a cool app. If I dont get a copy I would probably buy it for $.99 anyways.

How about letting your friend know where you are on campus!
Pastor Ron Feb 15, 2010 at 10:09 pm
This could happen: what about a person who is traveling along and sees an accident; that person could get coordinates and call 911 with the information. It would be easy for the first responders to find where you are.
petercamp Feb 15, 2010 at 10:09 pm

I would like to have that app.
mlfgc Feb 15, 2010 at 10:29 pm
I once had to call 911 on my storm (verizon of course) for a car that flipped on the highway. But the emergency rep tried to locate me via gps they couldn't because verizon can't use digital while on the phone. With this app I can txt the rep or read off my coordinates (after using the app b4 hand of course) so 911 can efficiently save a life . Sigh to Verizon and their HUGE set back but this app would be extremely useful in this manner .

felixtc Feb 15, 2010 at 10:37 pm
I would love to have a opportunity to utilize this application because it will save your life during those drunk nights when you can't even talk with sense. I think it is genius given the user the ability to quickly send their location to their friends or family with a push of a button. Possibilities are endless IMHO.

Tularemia is caused by the bacterium Francisella tularensis which naturally infects animals, especially rodents, rabbits, and hares. People become infected by the bite of an arthropod (most commonly ticks and deerflies) that has fed on an infected animal, or by being bitten by an infected animal, handling infected animal carcasses, eating or drinking contaminated food or water, or by inhaling infected aerosols in a laboratory setting. The use of F. tularensis as a weapon of bioterrorism is of concern because it is highly infectious. As few as 10 to 50 organisms can cause disease.
Purpose of surveillance:
Local epidemiology:
One case of glandular tularemia was reported to Public Health in 2012. The case was an adult with cervical lymph node swelling and lymphadenopathy after outdoor activities in Washington state outside King County. The case was not hospitalized.
No cases of tularemia were reported to Public Health in 2011. In 2010 an adult was diagnosed with tularemia after developing an ulcer after outdoor activities in King County. In 2009 an adolescent was diagnosed after sustaining a wound from his pet falcon's talons. Neither case was hospitalized. Both cases were culture confirmed. Prior to 2009, the last case of tularemia in King County was reported in 2005 in a person who may have been infected from an arthropod bite while camping outside of King County.
Approximately 200 human cases of tularemia are reported annually in the US, mostly in persons living in the south-central and western states. Each year in Washington state there are two to eight cases reported. Identified exposures include farming and rabbit skinning.

UPDATE (4 p.m.)—The westbound Pulaski Highway road closure Rossville Boulevard and Petrie Way, caused by a gas line break Monday morning, could continue into rush hour.
According to police spokeswoman Elise Armacost:
Traffic in the area has been diverted because the entire westbound lane of Route 40 is closed. BGE crews estimated that it would take several hours to make the repair and that evening rush hour traffic may be affected.
UPDATE (11:56 p.m.)— Westbound Route 40 could remain closed between Rossville Boulevard and Petrie Way through rush hour after a gas line was struck by a utility crew Monday morning.
"The time it takes to do the repair could butt up against rush hour," said Capt. Ross Cooke, a Baltimore County Fire Department spokesman on the scene of the break.
Baltimore County utility crews working on an 8-inch sewer line around 9:40 a.m. when they struck a 2-inch gas line near the west bound portion of 8700 block of Pulaski Highway. The lines had marked for digging by Miss Utility and that the county crews were working within guidelines, said Cooke.
BGE crews are working to repair the break, but the gas line will have to be capped before repairs can be completed, said Cooke.
No one was injured as a result of the break. Surrounding buildings were evacuated as a precaution.
"Right now, the main thing is traffic," Cooke said. "People should know to avoid the area."
Baltimore County police and fire crews began securing the area around a broken natural gas line Monday morning in Rosedale.
As of 10:20 a.m., Pulaski Highway (U.S. Route 40) had been closed between Rossvile Boulevard and Petrie Way, and nearby buildings were being evacuated, according to Louise Rogers-Feher, a police spokeswoman.
Crews responded to the natural gas line break near the Sunoco gas station, in the 8700 block of Pulaski Highway, at about 9:44 a.m. Police believe a utility crew struck and broke the line.
Four fire engines, a battalion and several police responded. Baltimore Gas and Electric Company crews were en route to the scene as of 10:20 a.m., Rogers-Feher said.
"We take any gas line break very seriously," she said, adding that drivers should avoid the area.

Goth subculture
The goth subculture is a contemporary subculture found in many countries. It began in England during the early 1980s in the gothic rock scene, an offshoot of the post-punk genre. The goth subculture has survived much longer than others of the same era, and has continued to diversify. Its imagery and cultural proclivities indicate influences from the 19th century Gothic literature along with horror films.[1][2][3]
The goth subculture has associated tastes in music, aesthetics, and fashion. The music of the goth subculture encompasses a number of different styles, including gothic rock, deathrock, post-punk, darkwave, ethereal wave, dark ambient, industrial music, and neoclassical. Styles of dress within the subculture range from deathrock, punk, and Victorian styles, or combinations of the above, most often with dark attire, makeup, and hair.
Origins and development[edit]
The earliest significant usage of the term (as applied to music) was by Joy Division's producer, Tony Wilson on 15 September 1979 in an interview for the BBC TV program's Something Else: Wilson described Joy Division as "gothic" compared to the pop mainstream, right before a live performance of the band.[4] In 1979, the term was later applied to "newer bands such as Bauhaus who had arrived in the wake of Joy Division and Siouxsie and the Banshees".[5] In 1979, Sounds described Joy Division as "gothic" and "theatrical".[6] In February 1980, Melody Maker qualified the same band as "masters of this Gothic gloom".[7] Critic Jon Savage would later say that their singer Ian Curtis wrote "the definitive Northern Gothic statement".[8]
However, it was not until the early 1980s that gothic rock became a coherent music subgenre within post-punk, and that followers of these bands started to come together as a distinctly recognisable movement. They may have taken the "goth" mantle from a 1981 article published in UK rock weekly Sounds: "The face of Punk Gothique",[9] written by Steve Keaton. In a text about the audience of UK Decay, Keaton asked: "Could this be the coming of Punk Gothique? With Bauhaus flying in on similar wings could it be the next big thing?".[9] In July 1982, the opening of the Batcave in London's Soho provided a prominent meeting point for the emerging scene, which would be briefly labelled "positive punk" by the NME in a special issue with a front cover in early 1983.[10] The term "Batcaver" was then used to describe old-school goths.
Independent from the British scene, in the late 1970s and early 1980s in California, deathrock developed as a distinct branch of American punk rock, with acts such as Christian Death and 45 Grave.[11]
Gothic genre[edit]
The bands that defined and embraced the gothic rock genre included Bauhaus, The Cure,[12] early Adam and the Ants,[13] The Birthday Party,[14] Southern Death Cult, Specimen, Sex Gang Children, UK Decay, Virgin Prunes, Killing Joke and the later incarnations of The Damned.[15] Near the peak of the scene in 1983, The Face's Paul Rambali recalled that there were "several strong Gothic characteristics" in the music of Joy Division.[16] In 1984, Joy Division's bassist Peter Hook named Play Dead as one of their heirs:
"If you listen to a band like Play Dead, who I really like, Joy Division played the same stuff that Play Dead are playing. They're similar."[17]
By the mid-1980s, bands began proliferating and became increasingly popular, including The Sisters of Mercy, The Mission (known as The Mission UK in the U.S.), Alien Sex Fiend, The March Violets, Ausgang, Kommunity FK, Xmal Deutschland, Clan of Xymox, Dead Can Dance, This Mortal Coil, The Bolshoi, and Fields of the Nephilim. Record labels Factory, 4AD and Beggars Banquet released much of this music in Europe, while Cleopatra, among others, released the music in the U.S., where the subculture grew, especially in New York and Los Angeles, California, where many nightclubs featured "gothic/industrial" nights. The popularity of 4AD bands resulted in the creation of a similar U.S. label, Projekt, which produces what was colloquially termed ethereal wave, a subgenre of dark wave music. The 1990s saw further growth for some '80s bands and the emergence of many new acts. Styles of music heard in goth venues ranged from gothic rock, deathrock, industrial music, EBM, ambient, experimental pop, new wave, synthpop and punk rock.
The 2000s saw a resurgence in the early positive punk and deathrock sound in reaction to aggrotech, industrial, and synthpop, which had taken over many goth clubs. Nights like Ghoul School and Release the Bats promoted deathrock, and events such as the Drop Dead Festival attracted deathrock fans from around the world. The goth music scene thrives in Western Europe, with large annual festivals in Germany, including Wave-Gotik-Treffen (Leipzig) and M'era Luna (Hildesheim), both annually attracting tens of thousands of attendees.
Art: historical and cultural influences[edit]
18th and 19th centuries[edit]
Gothic literature combines dark elements of both horror and romance: English author Horace Walpole, with his 1764 novel The Castle of Otranto is one of the first writers who explored this genre. The Revolutionary War-era "American Gothic" story of the Headless Horseman, immortalized in Washington Irving's story "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" (published in 1820), marked the arrival in the New World of dark, romantic storytelling. The tale was composed by Irving while he was living in England, and was based on popular tales told by colonial Dutch settlers of New York's Hudson River valley. The story would be adapted to film in 1922 and 1949 in the animated The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad. It would be re-adapted in 1980 and again in Tim Burton's 1999 Sleepy Hollow.
Throughout the evolution of goth subculture, classic romantic, Gothic and horror literature has played a significant role. E.T.A. Hoffmann (1776–1822), Poe (1809–1849), Baudelaire (1821–1867), Lovecraft (1890–1937), and other tragic and romantic writers have become as emblematic of the subculture[citation needed] as the use of dark eyeliner or dressing in black. Baudelaire, in fact, in his preface to Les Fleurs du mal (Flowers of Evil) penned lines that could serve as a sort of goth malediction:[citation needed]
- C'est l'Ennui! —l'œil chargé d'un pleur involontaire,
- Il rêve d'échafauds en fumant son houka.
- Tu le connais, lecteur, ce monstre délicat,
- —Hypocrite lecteur,—mon semblable,—mon frère!
- It is Boredom! — an eye brimming with an involuntary tear,
- He dreams of the gallows while smoking his water-pipe.
- You know him, reader, this fragile monster,
- —Hypocrite reader,—my twin,—my brother!
20th century influences[edit]
By the 1960s, TV series such as The Addams Family and The Munsters used these stereotypes for camp comedy. The Byronic hero, in particular, was a key precursor to the male goth image[citation needed], while Dracula's iconic portrayal by Bela Lugosi appealed powerfully to early goths[citation needed]. They were attracted by Lugosi's aura of camp menace, elegance and mystique. Some people credit the band Bauhaus' first single "Bela Lugosi's Dead", released in August 1979, with the start of the goth subculture,[18] though many prior arthouse movements influenced gothic fashion and style, the illustrations and paintings of Swiss artist H. R. Giger being one of the earliest[citation needed]. Notable examples of later icons include several bandleaders: Siouxsie Sioux of Siouxsie and the Banshees, Robert Smith of The Cure, and Dave Vanian of The Damned. Some members of Bauhaus were, themselves, fine art students or active artists.
Some of the early gothic rock and deathrock artists adopted traditional horror film images and drew on horror film soundtracks for inspiration. Their audiences responded by adopting appropriate dress and props. Use of standard horror film props like swirling smoke, rubber bats, and cobwebs featured as gothic club décor from the beginning in The Batcave. Such references in bands' music and images were originally tongue-in-cheek, but as time went on, bands and members of the subculture took the connection more seriously. As a result, morbid, supernatural and occult themes became more noticeably serious in the subculture. The interconnection between horror and goth was highlighted in its early days by The Hunger, a 1983 vampire film starring David Bowie, Catherine Deneuve and Susan Sarandon. The film featured gothic rock group Bauhaus performing Bela Lugosi's Dead in a nightclub. Tim Burton created a storybook atmosphere filled with darkness and shadow in some of his films like Beetlejuice (1988), Batman (1989), Edward Scissorhands (1990), and the stop motion films Nightmare Before Christmas (1993), which was produced/co-written by Burton, and Corpse Bride (2005), which he co-produced.
Popular literature[edit]
A literary influence on the gothic scene was Anne Rice's re-imagining of the idea of the vampire.[citation needed] Rice's characters were depicted as struggling with eternity and loneliness. Their ambivalent or tragic sexuality held deep attractions for many goth readers, making her works popular in the 1980s through the 1990s[citation needed].
The re-imagining of the vampire continued with the release of Poppy Z. Brite's book Lost Souls in October 1992. Despite the fact that Brite's first novel was criticized by some mainstream sources for allegedly "lack[ing] a moral center: neither terrifyingly malevolent supernatural creatures nor (like Anne Rice's protagonists) tortured souls torn between good and evil, these vampires simply add blood-drinking to the amoral panoply of drug abuse, problem drinking and empty sex practiced by their human counterparts",[19] many of these so-called "human counterparts" identified with the teen angst and Goth music references therein, keeping the book in print. Upon release of a special 10th anniversary edition of Lost Souls, Publishers Weekly—the same periodical that criticized the novel's "amorality" a decade prior—deemed it a "modern horror classic" and acknowledged that Brite established a "cult audience".[20]
Later media influences[edit]
As the subculture became well-established, the connection between goth and horror fiction became almost a cliché, with goths quite likely to appear as characters in horror novels and film. For example, The Crow and the Underworld film series drew directly on goth music and style. Neil Gaiman's acclaimed graphic novel series The Sandman influenced goths with characters like the dark, brooding Dream and his sister Death. Mick Mercer's 2002 release 21st Century Goth explored the modern state of the goth scene around the world, including South America, Japan, and mainland Asia. His previous 1997 release, Hex Files: The Goth Bible, similarly took an international look at the subculture.
Visual art influences[edit]
The gothic subculture has influenced different artists—not only musicians—but also painters and photographers. In particular their work is based on mystic, morbid and romantic motifs. In photography and painting the spectrum varies from erotic artwork to romantic images of vampires or ghosts. There is a marked preference for dark colours and sentiments, similar to Gothic fiction, Pre-Raphaelites or Art Nouveau[citation needed]. In the fine art field, Anne Sudworth is a well-known artist with her dark, nocturnal works and strong gothic imagery.
Other contemporary graphic artists with this aesthetic include Gerald Brom, Luis Royo, Dave McKean, Trevor Brown, Victoria Francés as well as the American comic artist James O'Barr. H. R. Giger of Switzerland is one of the first graphic artists to make serious contributions to the gothic/industrial look of much of modern cinema with his work on the 1979 film Alien by Ridley Scott. The artwork of Polish surrealist painter Zdzisław Beksiński is often described as gothic[citation needed].
Gothic fashion is stereotyped as conspicuously dark, eerie, mysterious, complex and exotic.[21] Typical gothic fashion includes dyed black hair, dark eyeliner, black fingernails and black period-styled clothing; goths may or may not have piercings. Styles are often borrowed from the Elizabethan, Victorian or medieval period and often express pagan, occult or other religious imagery.[22] Gothic fashion may also feature silver jewelry and studs.
The New York Times noted: "The costumes and ornaments are a glamorous cover for the genre's somber themes. In the world of Goth, nature itself lurks as a malign protagonist, causing flesh to rot, rivers to flood, monuments to crumble and women to turn into slatterns, their hair streaming and lipstick askew".[21]
Present-day fashion designers such as John Paul Gaultier,[21] Alexander McQueen, and John Galliano have also been described as practising "haute goth".[3]Fashion designer Rick Owens has been described as "...lavishly dark, and the ultimate hipster of goth", using "layers upon layers of black, on black, on black leather, on more black leather..."[23] Japanese designer Hirooka Naota brought goth into the mainstream, creating a "...punk-Loilita fusion of rock, Medieval, Victorian, Elizabethan, and anime influences."[24]

The World Series is starting, and the offseason is young. But despite the fact that the Mets didn't play baseball this October, there's still plenty to talk about.
And the Blogs are talking:
- Mack's Mets has an early preview of the 2012 draft.
- Patrick Flood illustrates the risks of signing pitchers to long-term contracts.
- Mets360 crunches some numbers and finds the Mets' 2012 payroll may not be as limiting as it seems.
- Metstradamus wants you to decide who's more hatable: Tony Bernazard or Yadier Molina?
- The Happy Recap Sunday radio show featured special guest, Ted Berg from SNY.
- LoHud Mets examines the trade that sent Nelson Cruz away from the Mets. That's right: the 2011 ALCS MVP was once in the Mets' organization.
The offseason is just getting warmed up, and so is Mets Today.

This is an invitation to discuss and debate how best to teach survey courses in United States History. This semester, we're focusing upon the second half of the survey (so roughly the Civil War to yesterday).
I started teaching United States history survey courses ten years ago. I've taught them in five different states, at public and private universities, to classes of 10, 25, 50, 150, and will (a year from now) lecture to a crowd of more than 300. I've assigned almost a dozen textbooks, co-edited a book of primary and secondary documents, and tried to integrate my research and new movements in the field into my courses
I'm amazed by how much has changed. Ten years ago, I taught what my mentors taught and how my mentors taught it. I spent at least a week on the Populists – because one of my mentors and one of his mentors had written books on those southern and western radicals. The class had an East Coast bias and African Americans were the primary (sometimes only) non-white group discussed. I used three novels and a textbook, because that was what we did when I led discussions as a teaching assistant.
For examinations, students wrote paragraphs identifying key concepts or people, and for essays they wrote three-to-five page thesis essays using lecture materials, the textbook, the novels, and a packet of primary documents. When lecturing, I showed basic PowerPoint presentations with 4 or 5 pictures and a whole bunch of statistics, quotes, and words many students would be unfamiliar with like "Dwight Eisenhower" or "perestroika."
Now, my teaching style, technology, and content have changed. If YouTube or Google image searching existed back then, I didn't know anything about it. Today, hardly a lecture or discussion goes by where I don't incorporate a music video, a movie trailer, a speech, or a cartoon. I just can't stop giggling every time I show the trailer for Tom Cruise's Top Gun ("the most dangerous movie of 1985" so the trailer boasts). I have dozens of great images for any figure or event. The problem now isn't a lack of visual sources, but how to make sense of them all.
Moreover, my own research interests, movements, and passions have driven me to new content. Ten years ago, religion never entered my survey classes – except with a reference to churches in the Civil Rights movement or the political importance of the "Moral Majority." Now, I try to discuss the role of faith and spirituality in each historical moment. For instance, my students today read (or at least I hope they read) documents from the Canadian-faith-healer-turned-Hollywood-celebrity-preacher Aimee Semple McPherson, who helped re-create the cult of America's "Christian nationalism." Students analyze prayers to interpret how Americans experienced lynching, the Great Depression, and terrorist attacks.
Current events and my own movement to the West altered my teaching too. Ten years ago, I mentioned California in the Gold Rush, Asian Americans when discriminated against, and Native Americans struggling on the frontier. Now, the West has a prominent place in the political history of the New Right and the West is an emblem of multiculturalism and religious pluralism. All of this needs to be included somehow.
Ten years ago, I hardly ever reflected on how other nations and peoples viewed the United States, and Muslims never came up. Now, "America in the world" is a key part of my material, Islam is addressed (and not just the Nation of Islam), and Afghanistan gets mentioned on several occasions.
With the new content and presentations, I've developed new means of assessment. To the exam and essay, I've added website creations (which have given way to Facebook pages or blogs), visual or musical productions, and even t-shirt designs (can you come up with a better slogan for Barry Goldwater in 1964?).
Changes make for more changes. New content and newer assignments – religious or not, international or not – take time. I love to talk about Rebel without a Cause and the culture of the 1950s, but a trailer for the film and a discussion of it uses the limited class time we have. So I've had to make sacrifices. The Populists, for instance, have been one of the casualties in favor of James Dean's teenage rage. My students now never hear of Mary Lease or the hell she wanted to reap in place of corn. I spend far less time on developing a thesis or clarifying topic sentences than I would like, but other creative productions that incorporate images and music are now part of the equation.
This blog – Teaching United States History – is an effort not only to describe, explain, and advance the changes that I've made, but also to open them up to others and for others. I hope to bring readers into my thoughts on preparing, teaching, and transforming the United States history survey. And since the technology allows for it, I invite other instructors and students to use this blog as a forum to speak their own minds, ask their own questions, and make their own suggestions. I want to know what works for you, what's confusing to you, and what you think about my teaching ideas and decisions. In this way, maybe we can help each other teach better (or at least have more fun doing it).
For this fall, I'm teaching United States history since 1865. In the next entry, I'll post my syllabus, discuss the course readings I selected, and address how the assignments will work together to teach the content and skills I see as most important. I hope to hear from you – what books you use and why, what kinds of assignments you give, and what skills you think are most important. When the semester begins, I'll have my students post in the comment section with their questions, reflections on which documents most appealed to them, and how they understand the material. Please feel free to have your students chime in as well about materials or assignments from your class as well.

If you're using Mac OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, then you have access to Mac OS X's Gatekeeper security feature. Gatekeeper is the newest addition to OS X's security arsenal and it wants to help keep your system free of malware and malicious code.
While Gatekeeper is a great new security feature, it's not without its own problems, one of which could leave you scratching your head when you attempt to install a new app and receive a strange error that you've never seen before. In this article, we'll show you how to get the most out of Gatekeeper and avoid errors installing non-gatekeeper-approved software as well.
What does Mac OS X's Gatekeeper do?
Think of the Gatekeeper security feature as the doorman behind the velvet rope at an exclusive club, where the club is your Mac, and the people in line are legitimate software applications and malware applications trying to get in.
The doorman at the club probably has a list of people that are pre-approved for entry or are VIP guests. The Mac Gatekeeper feature also has a list that it checks potential entrants against as well. Gatekeeper's "Allow Applications Downloaded From" setting has three options: "Mac App Store", "Mac App Store and Identified Developers", and "Anywhere".
When you try to install new software, the Gatekeeper feature checks to see what the above setting is and decides whether or not to let the software run on your computer.
The theory is that applications in The Mac App Store and those created by Apple Identified Developers play by Apple's rules with regards to security and are likely to present less of a threat than just any old app that you download from an unknown source on the Internet. Identified Developers also digitally sign their code which helps gatekeeper screen out malware.
How do I access Gatekeeper's settings?
1. Click the "System Preferences" icon from the dock menu or the Apple menu.
2. Click on the "Security and Privacy" icon from the "Personal" section of the System Preferences window.
3. Click the lock icon at the bottom of the screen and enter your password if required.
4. Click on the "General" button near the top of the window.
5. Look for the section that says "Allow Applications Downloaded From". This is where the Gatekeeper settings are located. You can change the setting if needed to allow certain programs downloaded from sources other than the Mac App Store or from Apple Identified Developers. Please note that changing this to "Anywhere" effectively turns off the Gatekeeper protection feature.
What is the "Damaged Software" Error and how do I get around it to install an app that is not Gatekeeper-approved?
When trying to install a software package on your mac from the Internet, you may receive an error that says "APPLICATION_NAME is damaged and can't be open. You should move it to the trash." This error is caused by the OS X Gatekeeper blocking settings. In order to install an app that is not a Mac App Store download or an app that wasn't developed by a Apple identified developer, you will need to perform the following:.
1. Follow the steps mentioned above for accessing the Gatekeeper settings.
2. Change the "Allow Applications Downloaded From" setting from its current value to "Anywhere".
3. MAKE SURE that the app you are trying to install is free of malware by scanning it with an anti-malware scanner prior to continuing.
4. Attempt to install the app that generated the error message.
5. After you have installed and run the app for the first time, go back to the "Allow Application Downloaded from" settings area and change it from "Anywhere" to either one of the other two settings (Mac App Store being preferred as the stronger security setting).

Do you have entrepreneurs in your family? If your ancestors owned a business in the 19th century, you'll now be able to learn the details of their company, or even their farm, in the Non-Population Census Schedules, 1850-1880 that are now online. This unique collection of agriculture, industry/manufacturers, and social statistics contains the names and details of more than 4 million people and businesses from the 1800s – so check it out to find the ancestral entrepreneur that's in your family.
Included in the industry/manufacturing schedules are the company name, a description of the type of business, amount of capital invested, the quantity and value of resources used, the quantity of yearly production, and the number of individuals hired.
We even found details for many major businesses operating during the 1800s. Compared to where these business are today, these records truly illustrate the impact of the Industrial Revolution. These schedules contain some of the country's most famous businesses that started in the 19th century, including:
Other familiar businesses found in this collection include Macy's, Colgate, Lord & Taylor and the Milton Bradley Company.
Additionally, the Non-Population Census Schedules include agricultural schedules that detail total acreage of land, the value of the farm, machinery and livestock, and amount of staples (wool, cotton, grain, etc.) produced. This collection also lists social statistics for communities that include details on churches, cemeteries, societies, schools, libraries, property value, and newspapers, plus outlines the number of paupers supported by the community and criminals convicted. Records are available for many states including California, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nebraska, New York, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia and Washington.
So whether you're researching your ancestor's business, or interested in learning more about how many pigs they owned, check out the Non-Population Census Schedules to get a fuller look at your ancestor's life back in the 1800s.
You have wrong information on Jennifer Lynn (Matheson) Hurcombe. She was not married to Jason ( that is her brother in-law.) Her mother is Margaret Matheson NOT diana
Many Counties of Virginia are missing from the non-popularion schedules for 1850 and 1860.
Virginia did not secede and WV become a distinct State until 1861.
You don't omit these counties from the Population Schedules.
Where are they, please?
These schedules, especially for agriculture, are welcome additions. However the indexing seems worse than "normal".
As for comments above re missing counties, I think Ancestry needs to provide a way to check a table of counties for each state to show ones that may be lost or are still in process of being scanned etc.
Overall though very nice.
One last off topic comment: this overall blog is horrible and topics such as this should not be mixed in with those on TV shows and other fluff. Ancestry should have several blogs for like search issues, content, etc.
I agree completely about the addition of the TV show ads blog mixed in here. This is nothing but hype. It seems to me that when this blog started, we were given updates about new additions to Ancestry content and also heads up when things such as Ancestry contect was going to be down or updated, etc. A couple of weeks ago when the 1920 census images just completely disappeared, I saw nothing whatsoever about it. Some have speculated that it was because Ancestry was adding a new update for the 1920 census but we should have been notified about that instead of being left to scratch our heads and wonder about it. I have seen absolutely nothing to explain that disappearance on this blog or the message boards. It's just like-"lets ignore that and pretend it never happened".
Is there any similar data for Pennsylvania?
An admittedly cursory look at New York State, Columbia County, Ghent – looks like page 1 and the last page are missing for the town.
The left page displayed in the image is the detail for people listed on the previous image page (right side of image display), so you're missing 40 names from the first page. If you want to know production for someone on the last displayed page you're out of luck.
Nice addition though. How about a pdf of a blank page (like with the census schedules) for us with poor eyesight?
New Jersey is not included. It says additional states will be added in the future. Is there a time frame for when the additional states will be added?
When I restricted my search to Missouri, it went away and only Illinoise was listed, along with hundreds of other names!
Better try again!
(Assuming your comment is referring to searching for this newly added database)
If you click on the link for this new database (first paragraph of Heather's post), you will be taken to a search page with the following information:
This database contains U.S. federal non-population schedules from 1850-1880 for the following states:
•New York
•North Carolina
•South Carolina
•Washington Territory
Additional states will be added in the future.
I clicked from the email today announcing this new addition. Why can't they include the states like #9 Virginia did? I wasted just a small amount of time before I decided to see what was "included." No Pennsylvania!
Hey, is there a "place/page/etc" to add a business? I have a few relatives whom I would like to submit with their businesses.
There is no place that I know of for submitting that kind of info unless you set up a website on Rootsweb Freepages and do your own website on it.
I like the idea of adding information concerning old companies, agriculture etc. I have an ancestry who was one of the earliest farmers for the Sonoma wine industry and some of my most interesting information has come from books and records on that information.
I also have an ancestor who was an early inventor with Magnavox and Lockheed and would love to find other descendants from those companies. We have photos of some of them and they must have been very significant for inventions. We know my ancestor invented many items and we would like to find out more.
I would really like to see records from the horse breeding and racing industry. It's possible records were more thorough for some time periods than the human records. I have an ancestor that purchased racehorses for the King of England and I think I could find out more about him from from the business records. Both wine and horse racing were businesses that valued historical documentation.
Sorry to do two in a row but the Non-Population Schedule was extremely helpful.
Also I forgot to mention it would be great to have a separate space for an ancestor's business name or employer's company name. Then someday …probably down the road… we could try to do a search by company. Having a spot to put that in now would make it easier later. But please don't let this bog things down.
Thanks again-great search!
A separate space where? On your member tree?
I'm not clear on exactly where you want this information to appear.
Are samples of these schedules going to be posted, like they are for the population ones. It's a little hard to read some of the headings.
For those asking about missing states…some remained in the state collections and are not in NARA's collection. That's the case with Missouri's industrial censuses…the State Historical Society of Missouri has them.
Ancestry: unless it's there and I'm missing it, please make available a pdf version of this census form so we can more easily read the column headings.
Thank you.
The non-population schedules are a very welcome addition to the census collection. To assist our research would you please address the following questions:
1. When do you expect to add other states?
2. Will you provide sample schedules to help when images are blurred?
3. Can you confirm that the two page version of the agriculture schedules shows data for one farm on the right page of the first set of images, and the left hand page of the following set of images? And if so, can you advise how to find the second set of images (the "back" of the page) when a locale concludes with names listed of the right page?
#14 In answer to your question first of all I realize this is on the "wish list" and not something ancestry is ready for yet but…
When you add occupation to your family member it gives you date, location and a blank space. In that space you may put whatever. I usually add the job title and company name and notes. If the company name had its own line, we might be able to …eventually… do a search by company. Company information shows up on some census material and draft card information in addition to the individual family records.
Here's how this would help me. My worst brickwall is a man who was a newspaper reporter. He apparently moved around a lot. If I could search by company I might be able to find his locations and contacts. And as I mentioned above I am also trying to identify group photos from different business settings. I am also trying to find out more about exactly which inventions my grandfather helped invent and which airplanes he helped design. Since he mentored younger men so of these people may still be alive.
It is great that you have SOME agricultural schedules records on Ancestry. However, what about other states? Where are Georgia and Alabama? Especially after "Who Do You Think you Are?" where Spike Lee used the Georgia Agricultural Census, when will you have Georgia's agricultural schedules on Ancestry?
Are there any plans to release blank forms for the non-population schedules? The blank forms for the regular population schedules of the census have really helped me organize my research, and I'd love to see the same for the non-population schedules, as well.
I have to agree with Craig. Looking at Schedule 4 – productions of agriculture in Ellenburgh in the County of Clinton etc. etc. I look at image 8 which has page 14, the continuation of data for people on page 13, and ends with page 15. There should be a page 16 to complete the data on these 15 people on page 15. How can we find that?
Here you will find informational, and sometimes fun, posts from the folks behind the scenes here at Ancestry.com. We hope you'll notice just how passionate we are about family history and about the products we're building to help connect families over distance and time.Visit Ancestry.com

Shea Shawhan of Plano, TX, is a special needs high school student. She is 18 years-old, but has the mental capacity of a child. During birth, oxygen was cut off from her brain, causing this condition and for Shea to experience seizures.
Shea is a junior at Plano West Senior High School, where she plays softball and is a member of the cheer squad. However, being a happy teenager and eager to participate didn't protect her from evil, vicious bullies at her school.
It's difficult not to be enraged by the vicious bullies who torment Shea day in and day out. Thankfully, other students are beginning to stand behind her now that they know what is happening.
There's even a Facebook page called I'm With Shea, dedicated to stopping not only her bullying but all bullying.
Show your support for Shea by sharing this article.
