I quite enjoy the ability to clone programs, emails, etc. and all the assets that are within the programs. It's a great time saver and helps ensure that I don't miss any steps along the way - I just create the first 'template' program and just copy it from there each time I need it.
We went with Marketo over other competitors because of the reporting capabilities, but I have to admit that I'm normally confused and frustrated when working in that area. I can't easily drill down in reports for specific date periods, or simply to see source data. It's actually quite difficult for me to find what I need. And if certain things aren't logged in a specific way in our CRM, nothing works... which is a bit of a nightmare. It also drives me crazy that the Record Type Field pulls a random code from Salesforce, rather than the name of the record type - like Prospect or Customer, instead it's 012500000005UpzAAE (which is impossible to remember).
Make sure your CRM data is in tiptop shape and you have a friendly sales ops person willing to help you with data analysis. Depending on the size of your company, you could fill an entire role just with handling the various components of Marketo, especially if you have a lot of custom information in your CRM. We weren't prepared for how data intensive it was going to be and our Marketing team just doesn't have that data savvy person, so we've certainly struggled in that regard.
We're pretty new to Marketo so I can't say we've "solved" any problems yet - more like it's helped us uncover a lot of new problems with our contact database and just general marketing efforts. Which is good, but also frustrating. We now have more data to review, but we struggle a lot with a non-biased opinion on this data... having more information on how to interpret data from Marketo might help us more, we're a small team and we lack a firm understanding in that area.
I love the ease of use of Marketo. I know I can hand a login to almost anyone on our team, give them a few hours of instructions and they will be able to get in the platform and start doing what they need quickly. The out-of-box solutions are solid, and there is even more that you can do if you are comfortable with web programming.
There are more glitches and bugs than I would expect from a software company of this size. While there usually aren't any game-breaking bugs, there are enough that it can get annoying sometimes (e.g. Importing lists of leads sometimes crashes my browser... I've figured out the specific step and how to avoid it, but it still should have been fixed at some point). In addition, some of the code generated through the GUI that Marketo offers for landing pages and email design is sloppy and hard to work with/edit. If you only plan on using their tools, you'll be ok; or if you only plan on coding all the elements yourself and importing the html, you'll be ok; its just very difficult to edit the code they have generated as it tends to use in-line style definitions in a very sloppy manner.
Its a solid platform with a much more aggressive development schedule than the competition. Since they are a completely stand-alone company you don't get many of the delays/drama that you get with a MAP that is a subsidiary of another platform. This allows for a product roadmap that is cleaner and more focused on marketing automation.
We needed to deliver emails, track leads and behaviors and interact with our CRM in an automated, rule-driven fashion. The email abilities have been fantastic, and the automation integration with our CRM are invaluable.
Of all the automation softwares I explored, Marketo was a clear winner when it came to usability and design. We've been a customer for over 2 years now and each product update has continued to make my job easier and easier.
The new analytics visuals on email send programs give a clear picture into email performance, without having to dig around and manipulate numbers.
I should add that I would never consider myself to be an operational type person, I'm definitely more on the creative side of the brain. Learning and using Marketo has been incredibly easy.
The speed of the platform is often troublesome. For marketing teams that need to move fast (all!), there are significant lag times when pulling lists, approving emails and landing pages, and just jumping from campaign to campaign.
My only other complaint is that as a Spark user, support response times are just unacceptable. It can be hours or days between hearing from someone and finding a solution. Now, as a Standard user this is remedied by direct phone support, but even that is often slow.
Definitely make sure you have a rollout plan and a dedicated team member to manage the platform. When there are lots of cooks in the kitchen, things can get messy and data quality goes down.
Prior to Marketo we were using MailChimp for our email marketing efforts. Since making the switch, creating segmented nurture tracks has been a huge help on bandwidth because I know that leads will be emailed regularly.
The other big issue for us is demonstrating marketing's impact on the business. Program reporting and syncing to salesforce has really helped us demonstrate to leadership the importance and value of marketing spend. It's also helped us figure out where to put our dollars.
The bread and butter of Marketo lies in it's ability to track programs from creation to execution. The tool comes with standard program templates that allow you to easily get up and running for your basic email and landing page programs, but it also allows you to track success and engagement across programs like webinars, events, web pages and multi-step or channel campaigns. I like how easy it is to create custom stages so you can easily track each stage of your marketing/sales funnel across different programs/channels. The built-in reports also give you easy visibility into the success of specific programs as well as the resulting pipe contribution and actions taken by the sales team once they have completed the programs call-to-action.
Marketo also makes it easy to track and alert sales reps of lead activity and build out a number of operational programs to ensure data consistency and communication between the marketing and sales teams as well as their associated tool sets.
Marketo is not the tool for you if you're simply looking for program management. The programs and tracking available is very in-depth, but it lacks key features to do social marketing or to track content creation/strategy. They have added features such as a campaign calendar, but the layout is hard to understand and leaves marketing teams resorting to a Google calendar or similar feature to track campaign sequencing and deliverables.
Please consider looking into a better support package or ensuring you have a resource available with a deeper knowledge of Marketo implementation and program setup.
We initially looked at Marketo for a better email tool, but it's now our main platform to manage success of most (if not all) programs as well as look at key funnel metrics such as cost per lead, lead lifecycle movement and opportunity influence.
Since implementation, we have realized that Marketo is an easier way to link program success to more targeted funnel metrics and it also has the feature set available to further sales enablement and proper alignment with our marketing efforts.
I have been using Marketo for 4+ years now at 2 different employers, so what I liked most then are now are slightly different. Then: the usability, not-so-steep learning curve, drag and drop functionality (no coding required to set up campaigns and write lists), and incredibly support (both from Marketo... and the Marketo Community once that feature was added). Now: I love the monthly updates. Marketo really does listen to its customers and implements ideas/changes that the community feels are most important. The innovation at Marketo is at top-speed and the company is constantly churning out new products and modifying it's existing product to keep with market needs and trends. The majority of this review is based on my use of Marketo from 2010-early 2014 at my previous employer. I will update this review later this year, early next year to encompass my experience at this employer.
I think that the reporting feature could be better. Reports can take a while to run (a long while) depending on the amount of granularity you are trying to get. And I have found that running reports with the time setting "all-time" seem to get stuck quite often and not run properly, causing me to pull manual reports.
It will take dedicated time for someone brand new to the system to learn the in's and out's, especially if you are connecting to a CRM (like Salesforce). They will need to understand how information passes back and forth between the systems to ensure data integrity, so be sure to plan ample time for the person to learn.
Being able to automate campaigns based on triggered steps saves tons of time and energy for our small team. Also, we don't have to involve IT when creating campaigns, so we aren't using resources outside of our team. This enables us to get campaigns up and running much faster! Other benefits include the insight that using Programs has showed us (including how many new leads each program brings in, the cost per new lead, and whether or not people are actually using our content - content effectiveness).

Citi initiates coverage of Apple stock with 'buy' rating, $675 targetCiti Research began covering Apple stock on Monday, and kicked things off with a note to investors projecting a $675 target price with a recommendation to buy.
Citi's price target implies an expected return of about 20 percent from AAPL stock. The firm noted that shares of Apple slid 28 percent on a "correction" that began on Sept. 21, which put it in line with past corrections in its own history, as well as those of its peers.
Year-over-year growth at Apple is expected to stabilize in the first half of 2013, which Citi believes would set the company's stock on course for the $675 price target.
But that price is also 11 percent below the consensus price target for Apple on Wall Street. That's because Citi believes that the risks for Apple "are increasingly coming into focus."
"We assert that Apple's share of the smartphone market is at risk from low-end smartphones and competition from other ecosystems," they wrote. "We see upside from tablets, but this negatively impacts (gross margins)."
Rather than have a lead analyst assigned to Apple, as most other investment firms currently do, Citi has opted to take a "unique team approach" in its Apple coverage. That strategy involves semiconductor analyst Glen Yeung, software analyst Walter Pritchard, and hardware analyst Jim Suva.
"This reflects Apple's broad impact to the technology supply chain and allows us to uniquely follow the company from several industry angles," Citi explained in a note to investors on Monday.

1990 Jeep Cherokee Q&A
1990 Jeep Cherokee Question: who does the best work on 1989 Jeep
I have had my Jeep worked on twice for the same problem and it still occurs. After driving about 50 miles it loses power and eventually I have to pull over. If I wait a few minutes, I can drive again, but with reduced power. Who should I take it to that can really resolve this problem and not just say it is fixed and charge me for their time? - Jeep thing
Answer 1
You local Jeep dealership iis best equipped to diagnosis your concern. Judging from your description, Your symptoms sound like your fuel pump module filter is partially plugged up. I would consider replacing the entire Fuel Pump Module assembly ans well as the inline fuel filter located under the body - Johnny Mopar

The Cataracs Are Not Like a G6
Niles Hollowell-Dahr, left, and David Singer-Vine
It's a Friday morning, and David Singer-Vine and Niles Hollowell-Dhar sit on the sun-dappled patio of their favorite taco stand, Silver Lake's El Siete Mares. But they don't order food. "It's too early for tacos," Singer-Vine, 24, says as he shakes his head, his eyes still a little sleepy.
Just in from the club?
"I can't do the club thing. All these sleazy girls with sex in their eyes attached to these big muscular dudes with leased cars," says Singer-Vine, who's chatty with a wicked sense of sarcasm. Hollowell-Dhar, 23, who's toting a book and has the air of an intellectual, chimes in: "Girls with money in their eyes. You get inside and it's packed [and] they're playing loud techno music."
This is not the conversation we expected from The Cataracs, the production/hip-hop duo who wrote and produced 2010's definitive anthem for a certain type of bottle-poppin' club-goer, Far East Movement's "Like a G6." With thick, thumping bass lines, plopping keys and choruses that riff on classic rap hooks, their stuff is what gets wobbly drunk girls hopping up on VIP couches.
In 2006 and 2007 they released volumes of their work Technohop. They discovered electro-pop princess Dev, and then co-wrote her debut single, "Bass Down Low," which has racked up over 38 million YouTube views. Their latest EP, Gordo Taqueria, which comes out next Tuesday, July 17, definitely will be spun in the club. Don't they need to be out gettin' slizzered for research or something?
Actually, no. "Jewish guys wrote Christmas songs; The-Dream wrote 'Single Ladies.' We make party music, but we make fun of party music so much at the same time ... why should party music be so serious? It's funny. We try to parody it a little bit," Singer-Vine says.
The two met as sophomores at Berkeley High School. A mutual friend introduced them, and they began making music together.
As MySpace blew up, the guys' skate crew (which included Lil B's group The Pack, for whom The Cataracs have produced) turned into a music crew, but they never intended to make electronic music. "We didn't really listen to techno music! We started making electronic music without ever listening to it. All of our homies who didn't listen to it either were like, 'Oh yeah, man, that's techno, man!' just because it was faster [than rap]," Singer-Vine says, laughing.
They parted ways briefly after high school, with Singer-Vine going to film school in Chicago and Hollowell-Dhar heading to San Francisco State. But after a year, both moved back to the Bay and in with their parents. Soon they felt they'd gone as far as they could ("We wanted to hear our stuff on the radio") and made the leap to L.A. four years ago.
"There's so much money in making beats for other people," Hollowell-Dhar says. True, if those people are Snoop Dogg and 50 Cent, two other artists who've snatched up The Cataracs' beats. "But we decided to go back to that time where we were just in our room making music for hours. It is hard, but ... rewarding. [Our song] might get a million views instead of 15 million, but it means a hundred times more 'cause it's our name on it," Hollowell-Dhar continues. (There he goes being modest; "Like a G6" has over 87 million views.)
Though they wrote and produced almost every track on Gordo Taqueria, they're most excited about "Roll the Dice," on which they share production credits with radio wizard Stargate (Wiz Khalifa, Katy Perry) and EDM giant Wolfgang Gartner. Maybe their next song to blow up will be their own; just don't expect them to go to the club to hear it.
The Cataracs' latest EP, Gordo Taqueria, will be released next Tuesday, July 17.

Thread: LC's Stuff

LC's Stuff
I've been one of those 'ghosts' that've made an account to creep on forums and artists, but I've never had the guts to actually post anything. I'm a freelance artist, but I'm still learning so much every day that I feel very much like a student. I've noticed recently that my design sense sucks, so my main focus right now is the basics: drawing and design.
I'll include pieces I've done recently as well as my sketches, and the quality will most likely vary a lot. That's just because sometimes I get help, sometimes something clicks, and most of the time, I struggle. Please let me know if I'm doing something incorrectly in the thread; I've read all the rules but I might have missed something (like how to resize my images?!). And let me know if I'm doing something incorrectly in my sketches, too. Only good things can come from more help.
So here goes nothing.

Alabama had strong case to host supers
Follow Kendall Rogers on Twitter at @ysportsncaabb | Connect to us on Facebook
You just knew we couldn't get to the College World Series without at least some sort of controversy.
We noted last week that the NCAA Selection Committee did a fantastic job of putting together and seeding the NCAA postseason field. But the committee raised a few eyebrows on Monday when Clemson was given a super regional host over Alabama.
Some may subscribe to the idea that, hey, you're in the postseason, who cares where you have to play? But playing at home or on the road can be the difference between making and not making a trip to Omaha.
That's why there's some controversy.
But what matters more to the committee, rewarding the team that clearly had the better regular-season resume or the team that has the more impressive postseason run?
The topic is up for debate, but put us in the camp of those who believe the team with the more impressive postseason run should host.
That team is Alabama.
There are some good arguments in both Clemson and Alabama's favor, though.
The Tigers finished the regular season with a much better conference record in a comparable league and also have compiled an impressive 21-14 record against RPI top-50 teams. The Crimson Tide, meanwhile, barely made the SEC tournament, finished conference play with a 15-15 record and have just a 19-19 record against RPI top-50 teams.
Throw those numbers into the ring, and it's easy to see why the Tigers are sexier to some and are playing host to the Crimson Tide.
Clemson put together a strong showing at the Auburn Regional the past few days, using several solid offensive performances to advance to the super regional round. It defeated Auburn for the regional title. AU, though, was not a national seed.
Alabama, meanwhile, hit the road to compete in the Atlanta Regional, which featured No. 8 national seed Georgia Tech as the host. The Crimson Tide beat the Yellow Jackets twice to win the regional and have been one of the nation's hottest teams the past couple of weeks.
Beating a national seed on its home field apparently doesn't matter. It should.
The matter at hand between Clemson and Alabama, as it should be, will be settled on the field later this week.
It still doesn't diminish the fact the wrong team is hosting.
In another decision that made us do a double take, the NCAA is making the winner of the Coral Gables Regional start a three-game series against Florida on Friday. There's a little issue with that, though. The Coral Gables Regional was suspended Monday due to rain, and Miami and Texas A&M are finishing the contest on Tuesday.
That means either the Hurricanes or Aggies only receive two days rest before facing the Gators. The Gators, though, will have four days rest after making easy work of Florida Atlantic in the Gainesville Regional title game Sunday.
Puzzling decisions, indeed.
Setting the stage
Arkansas vs. Arizona State: The Razorbacks advanced to the super regional round with an impressive win against Washington State in the Fayetteville Regional title game. The Sun Devils, meanwhile, had absolutely no trouble with their regional field. The Devils have the edge in this series, and it will be interesting to see if highly drafted Arkansas third baseman Zack Cox returns to the lineup against the Devils. Cox left Monday's game grimacing with pain.
Alabama vs. Clemson: Both the Tigers and Crimson Tide played inconsistent brands of baseball this season. However, both clubs played exceptional brands of baseball in the Auburn and Atlanta Regionals, respectively, the past few days. Clemson is hosting the regional, and a home field advantage could be the difference. However, the Crimson Tide match up better in a three-game series than a regional with starting pitchers Jimmy Nelson, Nathan Kilcrease and Adam Morgan leading the way. It should be a very interesting series to follow.
TCU vs. Texas: Perhaps the second time will be a charm for the Horned Frogs. The Frogs dropped a three-game super regional series to the Longhorns last season. Now the two teams will meet back up this weekend. TCU made easy work of the Fort Worth Regional this past weekend, while Texas did the same with the Austin Regional. TCU presents a tough matchup for the Longhorns. Both teams will have an excellent crop of pitchers taking the mound this weekend.
Vanderbilt vs. Florida State: The Commodores have been waiting for this moment since the 2007 debacle against Michigan. The 'Dores played clutch baseball throughout the weekend at the Louisville Regional. They took care of the host Cardinals to advance to the super regional round. FSU, meanwhile, won the Norwich Regional and is hosting as a result of being the No. 1 seed in that regional. Both teams played very well in the regional round. Will that play persist?
South Carolina vs. Coastal Carolina: This is an intriguing series for several reasons, but it might be most intriguing because the two institutions don't exactly see eye-to-eye at the administrative level. After all, Coastal Carolina once was a school in the South Carolina system. It became independent in 1993. On the field, the Chanticleers used heroics to get past pesky College of Charleston in the Myrtle Beach Regional. South Carolina, though, made easy work of the Columbia Regional field. CCU can earn its first trip to Omaha with a series win this weekend.
Oklahoma vs. Virginia: After an impressive showing at the Norman Regional this weekend, the Sooners hope to continue their winning ways on the road against Virginia, a favorite to win the national title. The Cavaliers had their hands full the past few days with a very pesky St. John's club. The Cavaliers, though, still will have a significant advantage on the mound entering the weekend. But OU is a hard-nosed club.
Cal State Fullerton vs. UCLA: The Bruins had little trouble mastering LSU and UC Irvine in the Los Angeles Regional. But can they now find a way to master their arch nemesis Cal State Fullerton this weekend? The Bruins definitely have the edge on the mound with Gerrit Cole, Trevor Bauer and Rob Rasmussen leading the way. Fullerton, though, has the better offense and could be even better if Gary Brown is back in the lineup. This will be a fantastic super regional series.
Miami/Texas A&M vs. Florida: The Gators were fabulous in the Gainesville Regional and await the winner of the Coral Gables Regional. Inclement weather suspended Monday's regional title game, so Florida won't know its opponent until late Tuesday afternoon. The Gators took two of three from Miami in a series earlier this season. They have not played Texas A&M.

Quinntana Seven Day Challenge Day Five: Family Life (Santana, a popular singer, and Quinn, a well known director, talk to an interviewer about their four year old daughter).
Note; I cannot believe the quality on these gifs, it's shockingly terrible. I'm not very good at gif maniping, so I needed an interview where they had a similar coloured background, as well as nobody else being in the way. The youtube video for this wasn't great quality to begin with and, well. Yes. The quality is bad, I am aware.

Exit and pride on the cards for Japan and Greece in high-stakes confrontation
After defeats in openers, Blue Samurai and rivals have no room for error if they are to stay alive in tournament
Agence France-Presse in Natal
Most Popular
Japan and Greece face a high-stakes shoot-out after opening match defeats, which have left their participation in the tournament hanging by a thread.
With Japan outmuscled by Ivory Coast 2-1 and Greece thumped 3-0 by Colombia on Saturday, defeat for either side in their group C collision in Natal could well be terminal.
Whether Japan or Greece are heading for the exit will depend on the outcome of Colombia's showdown with the Ivory Coast earlier in the day.
But what is not in doubt is that neither Japan nor Greece has much margin for error at the Estadio das Dunas.
English-based defender Maya Yoshida believes it will be crucial for the Blue Samurai to score first against the Greeks.
"Of course, we lost the first match, so at the moment we're very disappointed. But we still have two games to go," he said.
But Yoshida was adamant the Asian giants had not given up hope of progressing to the knockout rounds for only the third time in their history.
"Greece lost as well. They have good defenders and tactics," said Yoshida. "They have good orientation defensively. If we get the first goal, they have to come forward, so we will have a chance to take more initiative."
Keisuke Honda, who faded badly in the second half against the Ivorians after firing Japan ahead in the 16th minute, insisted his teammates had picked themselves up after the Recife loss.
"We've got it out of our system," said Honda. "Losing wasn't what was shocking; it was not being able to play to our strengths.
"The best characteristics of the Japanese turned against us. We're a diligent side and when we started trying too hard it destroyed us."
But not everyone has been convinced. Former captain Hidetoshi Nakata, now a commentator for public broadcaster NHK, questioned the tactics of manager Alberto Zaccheroni.
"We must think about what kind of game we want to produce because, so far, I've yet to figure out what kind of game Zaccheroni wants the team to play."
Manchester United's Shinji Kagawa suggested caution may have to be thrown to the wind if Japan are to avoid crashing out. "Greece are going attack us, so we have no option but to start with the same strategy," he said.
But Greece's national team manager Fernando Santos, meanwhile, believes he has pinpointed Japanese vulnerabilities after scrutinising their performance against the Ivorians.
"We watched them play against Ivory Coast," Santos said. "We selected interesting information and we will inform our players during the next few days.
"We have already watched Japan in the past and we know their advantages and disadvantages. We will be ready."

(6/14/04) =============================================================================== I. Introduction =============================================================================== Yo, Frankomatic checking in once again. While my last work was a full walkthrough for a game that actually benefited from one, this is a smaller and simpler sort of guide for that old space shooting classic, Life Force. What I'm hopefully going to accomplish with this is giving you, the reader, an in depth explanation of how each boss operates, their weaknesses, and how to exploit them. With this obligatory, if not short introduction out of the way, let's get on with the show! To jump to any give boss, just hit ctrl-F and type in S followed by the stage number you happen to be at for quick reference. For those of you who might be wondering why I lack a controls section. you wouldn't be looking for boss help if you didn't know how to play, would you? =============================================================================== II. Key =============================================================================== This is a quick section that'll show you the breakdown for each entry in the upcoming boss list. Phase (if applicable) ------------------------ Which part of the fight you happen to be on if there's more than one. Description -------------- A description of what the boss looks like. Attacks/Defenses --------------------- How the boss will attack you or defend itself. Patterns ---------- How the boss operates. Weak Point -------------- Where you shoot to kill it. Strategy ---------- How to kill the boss quickly and effectively. That's all of it! =============================================================================== III. Boss Strategies =============================================================================== S1. Stage One ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Description -------------- A very large brain with two very large arms and an equally large bulging eye sticking out of the front. Attacks/Defenses --------------------- The brain will point its arms in your general direction menacingly as well as slowly follow you around the screen with the intent of smashing into you. Patterns ---------- It. well, follows you around the room with the intent of smashing into you. That's it. Weak Point -------------- The large eye sticking out of the front of its "body". Strategy ---------- Seeing how this is the first boss in the game, it is fittingly easy to destroy. After the walls disintegrate, the brain will take three small hops towards you before sprouting its arms. A few moments after this, it'll slowly begin to move towards you. Notice that the eye isn't open yet. Here's what you do. Move to the lower left corner and wait for it to get close, then move across the screen. When it gets close again, move up to the top right and wait for it to get to about the middle of the screen. The eye should have opened by now, so dart around in front of it and fill it full of bullets. If you're quick, one pass should be enough. Otherwise it shouldn't take more than two. S2. Stage Two ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Phase 1 ------------------------ Description -------------- A room with three orbs at the top protected by three shields each. There are also some of the normal turret enemies on the walls at the start of the battle. Attacks/Defenses --------------------- The orbs at the top will drop balls down that will bounce around the screen randomly for a little while before they either fall off the screen or get sucked up one of the orb paths again. Patterns ---------- None, really. The orbs bounce around randomly as far as I can tell. There will only ever be four on the screen at one time, though. Weak Point -------------- The orbs themselves are the weak points, you must destroy all three to move on. Strategy ---------- Well, all I can really say for this one is to kill the turrets quickly so you have less to focus on dodging, then just use your flying skills to dodge around. Having a speed upgrade or two helps out a lot, and the laser weapon can cut through the shields quite quickly. Once all three of the orbs are destroyed, line yourself up with one of the paths to keep moving on. Phase 2 ------------------------ Description -------------- A large machine object with four whirling arms of death and a blue "eye" in the middle. Attacks/Defenses --------------------- Contact with the arms or the body of the machine will cause death, but it doesn't actively attack in any other way. Patterns ---------- The arms will move clockwise at a constant pace and the whole boss itself will move clockwise at a slower, but also constant rate. Weak Point -------------- The blue "eye", which is guarded by three shields much like the orbs from the first phase. Strategy ---------- As this boss enters, the arms are already spinning. As soon as it gets near the bottom of the screen it will begin to move in the same direction as the arms, so get ready by placing yourself between two of them and moving along with them. After a few moments, the weak point will open up. Every time you happen to be beneath the boss after this, take some shots at the shields blocking it. Once those are gone, the boss will fall quickly to your attacks. S3. Stage Three ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Description -------------- The very large head of a presumably very large dragon. Attacks/Defenses --------------------- The only attack this dragon has is to fire off very large busts of flame at you. Patterns ---------- The dragon will stay over on its side of the screen, but it will move up and down to follow you. It'll fire off its fire blasts at random, though from the way it tends to stay lined up with you, it generally doesn't seem like it. Weak Point -------------- All I want for Christmas are my -two front teeth- o/~! Joking aside, just pound its teeth. Strategy ---------- After the hellishly difficult stage that came before this guy, he is mercifully easy to defeat. Just move a little up or down when he fires off a shot and keep working away at those teeth. He'll be dead in no time. Also note that unlike most other bosses, his attacks won't block your shots, so feel free to fire at it through its attacks if you're feeling daring. S4. Stage Four ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Description -------------- A big freakish skull with two creepy eyes that follow your every move. Attacks/Defenses --------------------- The skull will open up its mouth and spit out a flurry of bullets at you. Also, after enough damage is sustained, its eyes will fly out and chase you around the screen. Touching them is just as deadly as running into anything else. Patterns ---------- The skull will just follow you left and right around the screen, never moving any higher or lower. Every couple of seconds, it opens up its mouth and spits out a cloud of bullets. After you damage it a bit, one eye will fly out and try to smash into you. A little more and the second will follow suit. Weak Point -------------- The mouth is its weak point, but only when it happens to be open. Strategy ---------- Try not to be too freaked out by this guy in general and you'll likely be okay. Just keep lined up with it until the mouth opens and then try to get some shots off and into said mouth. Its shots will block your own so this can be a bit difficult. When the eyes come off, a few options are presented to you. You can either shoot them a few times to kill them, or occasionally they'll fly off the screen and forget to come back. When the boss is effectively blinded, its bullet flurries become a lot more random and it becomes a lot easier to actually cause some damage to it, so go nuts and take it out. S5. Stage Five ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Description -------------- A possessed stereotypical Egyptian pharaoh death mask surrounded by a shield of golden orbs. Attacks/Defenses --------------------- The orbs will circle around and fire off shots at you and every now and then, the boss itself will slowly move forward to try and ram you. Patterns ---------- The boss will bob up and down for a little while, shooting at you with its orbs, before charging forward to try and kill you off. When it gets across the screen, it will repeat the bobbing and firing for a little while, then move across the screen once again. Weak Point -------------- The flashing, seizure inducing eyes of the mask. Strategy ---------- The first thing this boss does is to try and collapse the room on you, so hang out around the middle of the screen when it stops scrolling. After the first two or three blocks fall, dash back to the left at the next opening and you'll have successfully dodged this attack. Once the orbs appear and the eyes start flashing, the fight has begun for real. Dodge up and down to avoid the shots from the boss and try to hit its eyes. The orbs will frequently block your shots, so this can take a while. After a few seconds of this, the boss will stop in the middle of the screen and start to move across it. Get to the top or bottom to avoid running into it, and take up the open place on the right side of the screen. The previous pattern will begin again, but this time you won't be able to get at the eyes, so all you can do is dodge. Once it crosses the screen again, quickly target the eyes and try to finish it off before you have to change sides again. S6. Stage Six ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Phase 1 ------------------------ Description -------------- Two of the Easter Island head enemies that jump about instead of staying still while they attack you. Attacks/Defenses --------------------- Well, they still shoot the donut shots at you, but they also jump around and can run into you if you're not careful. Patterns ---------- Hop and shoot, hop and shoot. That's all they do. Weak Point -------------- Shoot them in the mouth while it's open. Strategy ---------- It's not too much different than a normal fight with these kind of enemies, though it's actually a bit easier since they'll open their mouths in mid air, which makes them easier to hit. Just be sure to move up and down the screen a bit every now and then so you don't get boxed in. Phase 2 ------------------------ Description -------------- A large red orb with a snake circling around it. Attacks/Defenses --------------------- The snake will fire blue bullets at you every now and then, and the fact that you have a very small area to move around in works against you as well. Patterns ---------- None really, the snake just circles about and shoots every few seconds. As long as you don't move from the bottom of the screen, it'll never run into you or anything. Weak Point -------------- The head of the snake. Strategy ---------- You don't have much room to move around in, as touching the orb is deadly. Just dodge the stray bullets as they come towards you and shoot the snake in the head. The orb won't block your shots, so whenever you have a shot lined up, take it. This won't take very long at all. Phase 3 ------------------------ Description -------------- A large red orb with a small, pulsating eye near the bottom of it. Attacks/Defenses --------------------- None. .Well, the screen does slowly advance you towards the orb, so if you crash into it, you die. Patterns ---------- None. It just sits there and pulses. Weak Point -------------- The pulsating eye of the orb. Strategy ---------- See that eye? Line up with it and fire away. The boss will do nothing at all to stop you from killing it. After this, just make your way through the escape sequence and you've won the game. Congratulations! =============================================================================== IV.

^Well, it's not as if "The Doomsday Machine" is a particularly deep episode. It's basically TOS's special-effects extravaganza, a story driven mainly by action and spectacle over story. If you ask me, the only thing that makes it work is Sol Kaplan's fantastic musical score. If it had been tracked with stock music instead, I don't think it would have anywhere near the same reputation.
Or maybe people like some action and spectacle.
As for the story - well - the episode was nominated for a Hugo award. However, I won't speak to the criteria used for the nomination. Fans also seem to really like
Balance of Terror
, too,
a lot
. The music of
The Doomsday Machine
is memorable, but that's not why I like the episode so much. I personally like it just because it's a space battle, and it was pulled off without getting too cheesy. It's a nice change of pace.
Fighting a giant robot in space is also an intriguing concept. Kirk's hypothesis of the backstory is fascinating, beyond the subtext of Armageddon, and raises some interesting unanswered questions (that I prefer to remain unanswered) with respect to exactly who was fighting the war.
Well, "The Doomsday Machine" was an science fiction story with a strong science fiction premise, written by a remarkably good science fiction writer. Most of the worthwhile TOS episodes were, to some strong degree, representative of so-called "Golden Age" sf and pulp sf of the 1950s and most were written by exceptional writers of the prose form of the genre - Ellison, Sturgeon, Bixby, Bloch, Sohl...
By the middle of the second year, though, the producers started settling for "Star Trek stories," a pretty hermetic and self-referential subgenre all its own which came to dominate the modern Trek franchise.
