- What songs do you have available?
Take a look at our list of tracks
- What does "Commercial" mean?
"Commercial" means a track we purchased. It's a commercially available track that anyone can get (and Bruce likely has in the front room, too).
Commercial tracks will generally be the more commonplace, including a lot of the 80s and 90s alternative that people like to sing now and then, and less of the hardcore Goth and Industrial.
However, a number of the more well-known goth bands do have commercial tracks available on occassion. The Sisters of Mercy, Siouxsie and the Banshees, and The Cure are prime examples of this.
Except for very mainstream things like Nine Inch Nails and Rammstein, you won't find much Industrial under this category.
- Of your commercial tracks, what companies produce them? I'm used to seeing (and writing down) track IDs that give an idea as to the company that produced them
We have a wide assortment. We intend to start including this information in the list (at least the online version, anyway) but we haven't yet marked it all down. Commercial tracks come mostly from Sunfly, SoundChoice, and Zoom, though there are other sources.
We don't use the IDs/codes/serial numbers because our software makes it far too simple to look up by title, and after a few drinks we probably won't be able to read those codes anyway (whether affecting our reading or your handwriting, let's be honest here!).
- What is a "converted" track?
Converted tracks are tracks that we have stripped the vocals out of using a number of audio processing techniques, usually in combination, and then synced lyrics up to.
Converted tracks have all the same on-screen lyrics (and usually better, as some of the commercial companies don't seem to pay attention to whether the lyrics they put on screen are right or make any sense.
The main difference is that in some commercial tracks there will still be some vocals remaining. It depends on the track and how well we can strip out the vocals without ruining the music, too.
- Will you convert a track for me?
In all honestly, it depends on the track, how well it fits our genre, how much demand we can sense for it, and whether we even can convert it. Sometimes it's just impossible. For instance all the attempts we've made to remove vocals from Nitzer Ebb's "Join in the Chant" result in nothing but a long drum loop. All musical elements except the percussion come out along with the vocals.
That said, you are welcome to request a conversion. We'll do what we can if we're willing to do it (for instance, we won't convert any Dr. Dre, even if everyone at Death Guild begged us, but we might convert a Switchblade Symphony song off a single request (and have).
Despite the apparent genre and so on, we won't convert (or purchase) any Mindless Self-Indulgence. This is because Dodger really really hates them. We have to have a few irrational standards!
- Are there any songs you have that are no on this list?
- What are they?
Stuff we don't want you singing.
- Why not?!
Because it would fuck with our night. Consider: Every karaoke night is all-request. This means that if a crowd comes in and requests, for instance, Tool and Metallica over and over, we could get a good crowd going of Tool and Metallica fans. But that's not who we're targeting. We're targeting the Goth crowd. Maybe that's suicide, but we don't want to be "Caritas Metal Karaoke."
We've had stuff on the list before, and we still have stuff, that is there to provide variety. We realise that probably 90% of the goth crowd actually really likes Tool and a fair segment likes Metallica. Or at least Metallica before they became "Grumpy Old Metallica." We have nothing against Maynard.
We just don't want to be flooded with his fans and end up alienating the core crowd we want to cater to.
Or if you'd like a shallower explanation, we would rather have a lot of hot chicks in corsets than pseudo-hippies in frumpy jeans and tuques.
Think of it as our version of a dress code, but less imposing.
- What is a "source" track?
So glad you asked! Those are very very special. OK some are only kinda special but often they are very special. A source track is a Karaoke track of a lyrical song created from an instrumental version of that track. While in some cases (such as The Sisters of Mercy's "Marian" or VNV Nations "Saviour") it just means there's both versions on different albums, most of the time it means we begged, bothered, and annoyed bands such as Bow Ever Down, Sonik Foundry, Assemblage 23, and Voltaire until they gave us instrumentals. We're still in the process of bugging some other musicians, such as Ego Likeness, The Strand, Aesthetic Perfection/Necessary Response, and Eric Gottesman of Psyclon 9, Ayria, and See Colin Slash (linked so you can bug him too).
Anyway, Source Tracks are the absolute cleanest ones you can perform. They are better than commercial tracks because commercial tracks are created by a dedicated cover band performing a cover of the song, and then syncing vocals to that. A source track, however, is the real song by the real artist, sans vocals.
And of these, the best ones are the ones where we get them straight from the musician, because they will be the released track exactly minus lead (or all) vocals.
- I know Ronan Harris! I can...
We'd like to handle the negotiations and bothering ourselves, to be honest. If you can put us in contact with someone, that's great. Though actually not Ronan. He has a thing against karaoke or something. We're just going to let that sleeping dog lie.
Issar, on the other hand, would be a great contact! We'd love to get in contact, but we would also like to do the contact thing ourselves so there are no misunderstandings (or so any misunderstandings are on our heads and not yours!). Yes, drama free. Wierd for a goth club huh?
- What is a "covered" track? How is that different from the commercial tracks you just described above?
Well, it's not really. Except that we're the ones that covered it. These are arguably the hardest because we have to do our best to duplicate the song. Made worse by the fact that none of us are really what you would call musicians. We're geek-goths with Fruity Loops, Garage Band, a MIDI controller, music theory PDFs on hand, and so on.
We really have no clue what we're doing. But sometimes we get lucky and it doesn't suck.
This happens more with the old goth stuff using physical instruments, because matching patches in Industrial is a nightmare. For instance, that "chime-shaker" thing that starts out Dead Stars... what is it? Yeah, not that easy. Dodger has over a thousand sound file patches and nothing sounds much like it.
While at the time of this writing there aren't any finished examples of this, a "covered" track may also, at some point, mean we've remixed the vocals out which is way different than audio processing to strip them out. It involves identifying instrumental measures in the song that are identical to other parts of the song except for their lack of lyrics, and then, mashing the song up with itself, mixing out all the lyrics. This may or may not work, and may or may not remove other instruments (or introduce them in the wrong places).
- What's a singalong?
Actually, there aren't any of those in the books yet, so this isn't a frequently asked question yet, but we imagine that at some point it will be if we do this. As we said, vocal stripping is a long and ardurous art and may or may not work. We are giving thought to the idea of simply syncing lyrics up with the actual track, vocals and all. If we do this, it would mean, for instance for a Bauhaus song, you and Peter Murphy would be singing together. Both at full volume.
We haven't yet made up our minds on this, mostly because we are concerned with the potential for confusion.
- Do you always end the night with Dead Stars?
For now. For a while. We started this way for a few months, and so upon re-starting in San Francisco we're re-establishing this tradition. Later we may wander off this format again. One idea we've thrown out is to have people vote for a finale song. Another is to have people vote for a specific singer to sing a song chosen by the crowd. It would be a combination Scaryoke and honour at the same time (because if you win it means either you sang best or at least you just won a popularity contest).
We're still playing with this, so for now it's Dead Stars. Unless Dodger Rickrolls us.
- What if I want to do Dead Stars?
We don't do repeats, so... no.
- On the slip it says "Alternative"—What's that for?
We don't do repeats. That means if someone just sang Zombie Prostitute and you turn in a slip that says you wan to sing Zombie Prostitute you're shit out of luck (even if you bribe).
The "Alternative" entry on the slip is where you can fill in a song to substitute for the one you did sing. It's your second choice. Your fallback.
It is not your "next song after"—if we can fill your first request, your second choice is discarded. There's a reason for this, too. While our software handles rotation, we have to manually identify those repeats and avoid them and 86 them form the list. If we took your alternative as your next song, you'd be getting your request in out of order and it's hard enough to keep track without that added aspect.
If you want your slip back because you can't remember what you put as your request, just grab it. We toss them all on the shelf behind us until the end of the night when we burn them as part of a sacrifice to Baron Samedi.
- OMFG! I'm in for Peepshow and I just realised you're serious about this being a Gothic karaoke night and actually looked at the books and OMG I wanna do Christine instead!!! Can I change my song?
Yes, usually. Just tell a KJ (Dodger or Jack).
That said, we really do mean "usually"—sometimes you can't. Here's when:
- If your song is up now you cannot change your song. It's too late.
- If your song is next and it's within a minute of the end of the person currently singing being done, you cannot change your song. That's dangerous. By the time we have entered your song to sing, you may be up, and thus see rule #1 above.
- If you have already changed two songs over the course of the evening... let's be frank: You need to start making up your mind better, and you're getting annoying about it, so no.
- Can I have a copy of this track?
- Can I buy you a drink?
Sure. Though tips are even better!
- How much do you get paid for this?
Not that it's really your business, but... nothing. We do this shit for fun.
- How do you strip vocals out of songs?
Well, we load up the track in our sound editor and then we apply a trade secret. Or five.
- You know, I've done sound and use CakeSonikFruitbleton Live and I know all about how to do this and what you should do is blah blah blah blah blah.
That's nice. Sorry if that's harsh but if you start doing that, we start humming The Major General's Song in our heads.
- You know what you should do? You should...
While we welcome all suggestions (and feel free to discuss on our Facebook Wall), while we're doing our thing please don't tell us how to run our night. You wouldn't want someone doing it to you. Yes, Bruce may do things differently. Yes the guy on Britpop night may do things differently. We are all individuals (I'm not!) and we all have our own ways of going about things. When you are the host of a karaoke night, you can do it however you feel works best. If you want to make an announcement before the first song, or sing the first song yourself, or not, it's up to you. Right now, it's up to us. Deal. (That ones's a big pet peeve of anyone running a night.)
- Hey this song is off!
We're keeping track of bad songs. Even better now that we have a database. And we will do what we can as they come up. However, in some cases (particularly converted tracks) it may sound like the lyrics are off when they really aren't. This is because it's fairly common that we can strip the vocals but not the echoes of the vocals. Echoes are off time (that's why they're echoes). If you were to just listen to the track, it would really sound like the whole thing was fucked up. If you sing right as the letters light up, you can hear that it's actually fine.
- What's with the microphones popping and clicking?
Signal interference. Try moving over a foot or so. Wander a bit on stage if this happens. Just move yourself a bit and it should go away. Also try not to hold the microphone right at the head. This seems to make it worse. We do our best to arrange the antennae to avoid this but the fact is radio signals actually bounce off of people so the more people back there (which we want) the harder it is to predict the best places to avoid any pops and clicks.
Oh also, don't point it at the dico ball. The disco ball picks up all the ghosts. Those cause interference. We saw it on Supernatural. And possibly Buffy.
- You guys are great! How can I help?!?
Well, there are three potential ways:
- Spread the word, come every Tuesday, bring friends. Go viral!
- Fill the tip jar.
- If you're cute... we may have other ideas... >.>

There is no Brazilian Butt lift that can be safely done for under $2000. Be extremely careful of people that will offer this to you. In Florida, we have had many patients who have died exactly from this. These offers are usually made by nonmedical doctors who have injected Florida patients with industrial grade silicone, wax, and even bathroom caulking. These materials are not sterile and these procedures have been done without anesthesia. Beside the excruciating pain that the patients have experienced, the patients will also receive disfiguring scarring around these objections. Many of these patients have had these foreign materials travel through the blood to their lungs and kidneys and have died because of this. Please don't compromise your health by considering these type of injections.
For more information on Brazilian butt lifts or butt augmentation, please schedule an iConsult or visit us online at the link below.

A former two-term elected Commissioner of Agriculture for the State of North Dakota, Sarah Vogel is an attorney whose practice has focused on agricultural law and work for Native Americans. She has been an attorney on the Keepseagle v. Vilsack class action litigation since it was filed in 1999. In 2010 and 2011, her practice focused almost exclusively on the Keepseagle case. She was part of the legal team that negotiated the settlement agreement including the programmatic relief portions of the settlement, and accordingly is familiar with the goals and purposes of the Council for Native American Farming and Ranching. Vogel has worked with many individual Native Americans and Native American organizations and governments, including the Standing Rock Grazing Association, the Fort Berthold Grazing Association, Sioux Manufacturing Corporation (general counsel and ethics officer), and the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians (general counsel; election lawyer).
Professional Degrees and Prior Work Experience
Vogel is a graduate of New York University School of Law, (J.D., 1970) and the University of North Dakota (B.A., 1967). In the 1970s, she practiced consumer protection law at the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs; Manufacturers Hanover Trust Co.; Chesebrough Ponds, Inc.; the Federal Trade Commission, Consumer Protection Division, where she was Program Manager of the Equal Credit Opportunity Act Program; and the Department of Treasury, where she was the Special Assistant for Consumer Affairs to Secretary of the Treasury G. William Miller. She returned to North Dakota in 1981. She practiced law as a solo practitioner and with the Robert Vogel Law Firm from 1981 to 1985. From 1985 to 1988, she was an Assistant Attorney General for the State of North Dakota specializing on farm crisis issues from 1985 to 1988. In 1988 she ran for and was elected to the position of North Dakota Commissioner of Agriculture (the first woman in U.S. history to win such a post). She served two four-year terms (1989-1992/ 1992-1996). She did not run for re-election, opting to return to private practice of law. From 1997 to 2004, she was in private practice of law with Wheeler Wolf, a Bismarck, North Dakota law firm. In 2005 with two partners she formed the Sarah Vogel Law Firm, later renamed Sarah Vogel Law Partners practicing there until mid-2011. She then became "of counsel" to the firm she had co-founded (now called Baumstark Braaten Law Partners, P.C.).

I'm not very sure if this is the right forum or should I post it to mobile development forum but I believe it's an OpenGL based problem.
I wrote some opengl code with C on windows, fully compatible with OpenGL ES. So without any changes (except a couple of context creation code) it worked on ios perfectly in terms of compilation, but has some problems with the result produced.
I can say the code has no problem because it works as it should on windows but it looks weird on ios.
It is like the polygons on the side that is close to camera are like not drawn. They appear as I rotate the object and another set vanishes. Here is a comparison image;

Two people are dead following a two vehicle collision at the intersection of State Road 89 and U.S. Highway 6.
According to Utah Highway Patrol Sgt. Todd Royce, an east bound passenger car attempted to turn left on U.S 6 at 1:07 p.m. on Thursday and was "T-boned," by a northbound motorist.
Several other passengers received minor injuries during the crash but Royce did not know whether or not they had been transported for medical treatment.
The names of the victims as well as vehicle descriptions are being withheld by the UHP until the victim's families can be notified of the collision.
As of 4:15 p.m. Thursday, traffic was being restricted to one lane causing minor delays in the canyon.
Visit our site later this evening for further information from the Utah Highway Patrol as it is made available.

I woke up to a fine covering of snow outside this morning and as I sat down at my desk and the snow began to fall again I was reminded of this beautiful spa retreat I spotted on Remodelista recently.
Located in a forest in a river gorge near Alesund in north-west Norway, the Juvet Landscape Hotel offers seven minimalist detached guest rooms with stunning panoramic views.
The architects Jensen & Skodvin wanted to create a hotel that blended with the terrain. The interiors are simple and unassuming to avoid taking attention away from the landscape outside and the views change constantly according to the weather, the time of day and the seasons.
The result is a hotel that offers simple modern architecture harmoniously situated in the midst of rugged Nature.

A prologue opens the movie, with the Muppets sad about finishing their last movie. Things turn happy pretty quickly when they get the okay for a sequel and launch into a wonderful song about sequels.
After the song, a dubious tour manager named Dominic Badguy (pronounced Bad-Gee with a hard "g," Dominic claims) convinces Kermit and the other Muppets to do an overseas tour. Dominic starts the tour off in Berlin, but he has an ulterior motive. In reality, Dominic is partners with international criminal Constantine, who's just escaped from a Russian Gulag prison and looks exactly like Kermit. Constantine swaps places with Kermit, who gets picked up by the police and thrown back into the Gulag.
Unlike Kermit, Dominic and Constantine tell the Muppets what they want to hear. "You can do what you want," Constantine tells them. Under Constantine and Dominic, the Muppet show doesn't go so well, but Dominic has bribed the audience and the theater critics in Berlin, Madrid, and Ireland.
With Kermit out of the way and the Muppets completely fooled, Dominic and Constantine are free to pursue their evil plan – to steal the Crown Jewels in London.
Will Kermit escape the Gulag? Will Constantine and Dominic ever be exposed?
MUPPETS MOST WANTED is delightful fun. It's not quite as good as the last Muppet movie, but it has more musical numbers. Dominic and Constantine get to sing their own song, "I'm Number One." Posing as Kermit, Constantine also sings a love song to Miss Piggy, "I'll Get You What You Want." Also, Miss Piggy gets to sing a duet with Céline Dion, her idol. Finally, Kermit is forced to lead the prisoners in the gulag's annual prison revue. As usual, the Muppets will steal your heart and kidnap your funny bone.
Best of all, MUPPETS MOST WANTED is a lesson about the importance of being selfless. When the villainous Constantine tells the Muppets they can do what they want, everyone becomes very selfish and performs things that ruin the show. Thus, Miss Piggy just doesn't sing one song. Constantine lets her sing five songs! So, Dominic has to bribe the theater audience to give a standing ovation so that the Muppets won't suspect they've been fooled. Eventually, of course, the truth comes out, and the Muppets realize they need Kermit's guidance.
Like the Muppets, many people today just want to do whatever they want, regardless of any rules or moral standards. When they do that, however, life becomes a disaster. The Good News, however, is that God has given us some moral guidelines. To fulfill those guidelines, He has given His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, who, through the power of the Holy Spirit, can transform our lives and help us fellowship with God and our fellow man, to walk in God's path.
MUPPETS MOST WANTED also has several references to God. One of the references occurs in a church by an Anglican priest about to perform a church wedding.
In Brief:
MUPPETS MOST WANTED is delightful fun. It's not quite as good as the last Muppet movie, but it has more musical numbers. Best of all, it has a great positive message. To fool the Muppets, Constantine lets them do whatever they want. Their selfishness ruins their show. Eventually, the Muppets realize they need Kermit's guidance and rules. MUPPETS MOST WANTED also has several positive references to God.

Subjective and Objective
By: Chris Dodge
Posted: August 8, 2013
page 3 of 4
The reason why you want to know how much each product is objective and Subjective is to figure out your primary focus. If you are selling a product that is more subjective, you must then identify the strengths of those properties and the weaknesses.
I had an old friend from Argentina. He had a baby care line that was the market leader in Argentina at the time, and for years he would ask me for help in exporting his products because he thought he had a great line. When he finally did, unfortunately, he came to realize his line was dominated by the subjective property and that much of this would need to change for other countries' markets. Specifically, one of the best products he had was a baby perfume and cologne, and from the second the child entered the room, everyone knew it because the fragrance was strong. There was nothing wrong in another culture with having such as tradition, but when he looked at exporting seriously, he found the fragrance for some products would need to be toned down a great deal—and that some products would not be acceptable in some markets.
Another reason why it is important to know the objective and subjective properties in each product is to then focus on achieving the goal of the product. Contrary to many product developers' thinking, there are no "best" products in the world. To reach that would mean the product fulfills the subjective perception to every consumer every time. Since that very likely ever going to be possible, knowing that you need to look at subjective properties more leads you to understand that you can focus on lowering the costs of the product based on objective properties. Then use that to lower the overall price point or invest more in the subjective.
This does not mean in any way that you should make a cheap product. It means that once you have identified what you are trying to achieve, do it without wasting money. You can always create more subjective properties, such as a shampoo with additional features, but again, the $6,000-a-pound compound that is used solely to achieve the objective property is a waste of funds when all you need is a good, stable, old fashioned, $50-a-pound one.
Subjective Sells
Today's brands are too often trying to selling the objective. They want the best "all-natural" ingredient and will pay top dollar, when in fact, the lower-priced ingredients will still do the job. When you are buying all-natural ingredients, what is the purpose? Is it something that will affect the objective property? Or will it affect the subjective? If it is objective or subjective, as much as the customer might want the natural, they still want value, and you are wasting your dollars on the all-natural rose oil made from virgin forests and crushed upon the feet of young virgin girls, when almost all product developers will tell you that you can get same results with a lower cost option.

Let me take a guess…You wish you had more time for yourself, family and friends, don't we all?
Children, parents, work, home…it is endless.
And when it comes to worrying about older parent's safety at home, you just hope that she stays more or less safe and age at home for as long as possible. And trust me, she wishes for that as well.
The last thing that mom or dad want is for you to run second shift helping them out in their house.
In fact, there is the whole home modification industry – Aging in Place that is about aging at home of your choice as people get older.
Besides, who wants a huge nursing home or assisted living bill that makes you choke?
As we get older, we keep on golfing, swimming, playing tennis but if the vision, flexibility and hearing are not the same, there is an obvious threat to safety at home and just one fall in elderly age can change everything.
If that is what you are concerned about, you will save yourself a lot of time and money if you modify a home for a safer, more independent living.
Besides, finding a solution for your older parent to be safer at home can be easier than you expect.
Here are some suggestions for a few weekend DIY projects that might save you, literally.

Ford's 'Barra' inline six-cylinder petrol engine will remain an option for buyers "until at least 2016", Federal Industry Minister Kim Carr confirmed today.
The news comes despite a sharp drop in sales for its large sedan and the cutting of 240 jobs across its Broadmeadows and Geelong plants from July.
The Falcon has been the subject of broad speculation in recent years, with Ford's global 'One Ford' plan having some commentators musing about a front-wheel-drive platform for the next-gen Falcon, or outright replacement by the new US-market Taurus.
Ford's recently-overhauled Territory SUV offers the same I6 petrol engine as the Falcon, producing 195kW and 391Nm of torque.
Although the engine was updated to Euro IV emissions compliance last year, many of its competitors now meet the stricter Euro V requirements.
There are no confirmed plans to bring the Ford six up to speed, despite Federal Government plans for a Euro V requirement by 2012 - although the rule is likely to affect only vehicles introduced after the deadline.
Ford is currently planning two new models in the Falcon line-up, with the LPG-powered Falcon EcoLPi in the coming months, and an EcoBoost four-cylinder model to come in 2012.
The future of the I6 engine beyond 2016 remains unclear. Unless the company can work a Euro V upgrade, it is likely that the six-cylinder versions of the next Falcon and Territory will be powered by a US-sourced Duratec V6 petrol engine - and possibly in front-wheel-drive and AWD variants.

4 years agoSad news really. Though it is good the engine isn't going away to at least 2016, it makes me think this is their way of breaking the news that they won't be upgrading or developing a new I6 for the Falcon.
- In the meantime Ford, make a 3 litre egas version to complement the new 4.0 litre egas please. it "should" still have adequate power & torque, but even lower fuel consumption, and at gas being half the price of petrol, you could have a big car that costs less to run than a Ford Fiesta. go on, I dare you to be so clever!
- i like simple things,thats why i like the inline six,i like live axles and leaf springs too,couse there simple.there all i need on these aussie roads where rispect of speed limit is a must.Do not need turbo or super charged V 6-8-10-12 american or eurapeon hi tech mini engines.JUST NEED COMFORT AND RELIABILITY ON THESE GREAT LONG AUSSie ROADS.An i6.a live axle and leaf springs,is all i need.Simple thing do the job 4 me
REGARDS tony

When talking about renting overseas apartments, services such as Airbnb, TravelMob and 9Flats might be the first to pop into your minds. But those sites are usually for short-term vacation stays. For longer-term rentals you'll have to look elsewhere – as well as think carefully about trust and security.
One such site is Boxyroom. It's a startup based in Singapore that had its soft launch in October 2012. The idea behind the startup all began when the founder's personal friend responded to a property listing on Craigslist in Paris and was cheated of 1,200 Euros (US$1530) when the fake landlord ran off with his money. In a bid to prevent such scams, founders Ang Pheng Huat and Loh Lin Lin felt the need to create a safer online platform for landlords and tenants to transact.
Boxyroom shows several similarities in concept and layout to Airbnb-like sites, centering on property listings complete with ratings and reviews, available amenities, messaging functions, and local map views. The main difference is that Boxyroom serves for long-term property leasing. It also strives to be a safer platform for transactions as they require tenants to fill up compulsory pre-tenancy application forms for landlords' screening. The site also safeguards the security deposit (equivalent to one month's rent) till the tenants have moved into the property. For each successful transaction, it will take a one-time 10 percent cut from the deposit paid by the tenant and the remaining 90 percent will be transferred to the landlord after the tenant has moved in.
Currently, after a month of its launch, Boxyroom claims to have about 200 members and 20 property listings in their database. They aim to target the global market with a focus on certain cities and countries with a high concentration of foreign students and expatriates, such as New York, London, Hong Kong, Melbourne, and Singapore.
Competitor-wise, Pheng Huat named several long-term accommodation sharing websites such as Easyroomate.com and ShareAccommodation.com, but he explained that the risks of fraud still prevail on those sites as landlords and tenants are able to communicate and transact directly without proper protection procedures in place.
At the moment, Boxyroom is self-sustaining but has plans to seek external funding in order to expand aggressively into the key markets and to set up a customer service team to provide around-the-clock multilingual support.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Prions ( listen (info • help)), short for "proteinaceous infectious particles (-ons)", are proteins that can make people sick. Prions cause many forms of encephalitis, or brain disease, such as scrapie, Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy) and kuru. Prions work by changing the shape of proteins in the living things it causes disease in. While normal proteins have lots of alpha helices, or twisted parts, changed proteins have lots of beta sheets, or flat parts. The word is pronounced pree-on.

© Copyright 2015 Albany Herald
ALBANY,Ga. -- A 60-by-30-foot, 60-pound Patriot Flag flew from a raised fire-truck ladder at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday in memory of those lost to the terrorist attack on 9/11.
"This has got to be the biggest symbol of freedom I have seen," said Billy Hembree, an Albany resident. "It is just beautiful and it has to be an honor for the city of Albany."
The Patriot flag came to Albany, its only stop in the state, courtesy American Legion Post 30, said Marvin Mixon, a ceremony organizer.
The flag is to be flown in at least one city in every state before being flown at the World Trade Center during the 10th anniversary of the attack Sept. 11, 2011.
Speakers at the event included Ray Humphrey, commander Post 30; Willie Adams, Albany mayor; Marine Col. Terry V. Williams, commander Marine Corps Logistic Base-Albany, and others.
Perhaps the most moving of speakers was himself a first responder, a brother to those who ran toward the flames after the attack in New York, Fire Chief James Carswell.
"The others here today may talk about how the events of September 11, 2001 affected their lives, their organization and our country," Carswell said. "I would focus my time at the podium on the 343 New York Fire Department firefighters who died that day doing what I believe is the greatest job in the country."
Carswell outlined what he thought would be a typical start to the firefighters shift on that fateful day based on his experience. He imagined the day started like any other day, with roll call, jokes and equipment checks.
At 8:47 a.m. on September 11, 2001 the ordinary day changed. Carswell read the dispatcher's radio calls and the answers from the firefighters from that day.
"Battalion one: We just had airplane crashed into an upper floor of the World Trade Center. Transmit a second alarm and start relocating companies to the area.
"Engine Six: The World Trade Center -tower number one is on fire. The whole outside of the building. There was just a huge explosion."
The drama began. Carswell said that at about 9 a.m. a firefighter came to him and said a plane had hit the World Trade Center.
The firefighters in Albany watched news reports and thought about how they would approach the fire if it were here.
At 9: 59 a.m. the South Tower collapsed.
"Our thoughts went to the firefighters and where they would have been at that time," Carswell said. "They would have been spread out on every floor trying to get everyone out of the building."
At 10:28 a.m. the North Tower fell.
"We sat stunned as many of you did that day," Carswell said. "For firefighters across this country, the actions of the 343 New York Fire Department firefighters who lost their lives that day and all the others who had placed themselves in harm's way exemplified what it means to be a firefighter.
"The New York Fire department conducted themselves on 9/11 with honor, a level of professionalism we all strive to live up to and a sense of duty to the service of their fellow man without regard to their own safety."

Full Platter:
The 'Single Ladies' singer is not just about talent & sexiness--she's also about respect and thoughtfulness. This just makes Beyonce even a better role model in Hollywood.
The two latest posts on Beyonce's blogs were dedicated to a fallen, loyal fan and Frank Ocean's coming out.
According to AceShowBiz, one of Beyonce's loyal fans, Dennis Herbert Tillet, was shot dead on Independence Day. Beyonce wrote, "my heart breaks to learn of the passing of one of my biggest fans...my deepest condolences to his family, many friends and loved ones." Queen Bey also said "life is precious and we are reminded everyday to live each day to its fullest and love each other."
Beyonce's other blog post was about Frank Ocean and his coming out. The mother of Blue Ivy sent her words of encouragement via blog, telling him to "be fearless, be honest, be brave, be poetic, be open, be free, be yourself, be in love, be happy, be inspiration."
Put short, Beyonce cares! How can you not love the "Halo" singer?
Any thoughts on Beyonce's blog posts? Would love to hear them below!

About 25% of my work is done on an appointment basis (meetings) or on the basis of immediate external demands made by others (another 25%). But, the rest is up to me. But, without the externals pushing me, I have a hard time deciding on what to begin (task initiating). Once I complete an action in a context I seem to lose a lot of momentum if the n/a is not a very similar one or on the same project, and I lose even more if I change contexts. I just read an article about human task switching being very costly. I am wondering if any one has any suggestions on task initiation and on how to maintain focus and mental energy when switching tasks and/or changing contexts (such as off site to on site, office at workplace to home office).

Commercial Break
Converse – best known for its Chuck Taylor high-tops, the sneaker of choice for nonconformists from Jackson Pollock to Kurt Cobain – was an ideal candidate, an antibrand whose passionate followers could have been alienated by conventional advertising. "There are not many brands that have that connection," says Shine, who lives north of San Francisco and goes to the hippie-holdout town of Bolinas to surf. "I would be stunned if people felt really attached to the Tahoe brand. There isn't a community there." Oh, and another thing: "I think brands should move on and stop asking people to participate. It's been done."

Back at Chevy, however, people thought the potential of consumer-generated advertising had barely been tapped. True, Tahoe drivers don't much resemble Converse wearers: The Tahoe is a mass-market SUV that appeals to outdoorsy types with large families and boats, particularly in the Midwest and the South. But everybody likes being asked for their input, and Tahoe got nearly 15 times as many submissions in four weeks as Converse got in two years.
Chevy had already enlisted Internet users for its 2005 introduction of the HHR, a retro-style SUV along the lines of Chrysler's PT Cruiser. After almost 1,300 people submitted photos and videos promoting the new vehicle, Chevy decided it was time to try this stuff where it really mattered – on the Tahoe, whose astronomical profit margin (about $10,000 per vehicle according to one estimate) makes it critical to the success of Chevrolet and its parent, GM. The Tahoe had just gotten its first makeover in years – serious styling, luxury seats – and its relaunch was at the top of GM's agenda. So they decided to pull out all the stops: "The Apprentice, for prime-time brand awareness," explains Kosak, the ad director, "and digital, because everybody is into digital."
Consumer research showed a high correlation between Apprentice viewers and potential Tahoe purchasers. So Chevy bought an episode – not just commercial time but the entire show, which would feature a cutthroat team of Donald Trump wannabes plotting ways to sell dealers on the many virtues of the new Tahoe.
The real-life job of figuring out how to tie that in with an Internet campaign fell to Stefan Kogler, Campbell-Ewald's creative director for new media. "If you think about the program," says Kogler, a 42-year-old Detroiter with a degree in new media from the Art Institute of Chicago, "it's people participating in a task, and we all get sucked into that. Is there any way we can translate that online?"
And so began the Tahoe's Web-based ad contest. In spots that aired during the special episode of The Apprentice, viewers were urged to go to a newly built microsite, Chevyapprentice.com, and create ads of their own using the video and simple editing tools posted there. "The 'subservient chicken' was a trailhead, or maybe a rabbit hole," Kogler says. "It empowered people, and this was sort of the same thing. You get an immediate emotional response. You get the bragging thing – 'Look what I did!' They want to share it with you."
Once Tahoe-bashers discovered that Chevy had handed them a bully pulpit, they quickly went to work, posting attack ads on the Chevy site and spreading them to YouTube and other outlets. It didn't take long for bloggers and reporters to realize that something weird was going on over at Chevyapprentice.com. At first, everyone assumed it was just another case of a big corporation not "getting it" about the Internet. Then, when the ads weren't yanked down immediately, they figured Chevy was too clueless even to notice what was happening on its own site. Only gradually did it dawn on people that Chevy had no intention of removing the attack ads.
In fact, Kosak and her team had assumed all along that they'd get some negative responses, and they decided they'd lose all credibility if they pulled any of them down. Ed Peper, Chevy's general manager, pointed out in a post on GM's FastLane blog that the Tahoe can run on ethanol and gets better gas mileage than other large SUVs, but as far as Chevy was concerned, that was that. As Kosak puts it, "We don't take uncalculated risks."
BY ANY OBJECTIVE MEASURE, the Tahoe Apprentice campaign has to be judged a success. The microsite attracted 629,000 visitors by the time the contest winner, Michael Thrams from nearby Ann Arbor, was announced at the end of April. On average, those visitors spent more than nine minutes on the site, and nearly two-thirds of them went on to visit Chevy.com; for three weeks running, Chevyapprentice.com funneled more people to the Chevy site than either Google or Yahoo did. Once there, many requested info or left a cookie trail to dealers' sites.
Sales took off too, even though it was spring and SUV purchases generally peak in late fall. Since its introduction in January, the new Tahoe has accounted for more than a quarter of all full-size SUVs sold, outpacing its nearest competitor, the Ford Expedition, 2 to 1. In March, the month the campaign began, its market share hit nearly 30 percent. By April, according to auto-information service Edmonds, the average Tahoe was selling in only 46 days – quite a change from the year before, when models languished on dealers' lots for close to four months. Even the hooting among marketing pros died down after Scott Donaton, the editor of Advertising Age, asked in a column for a show of hands from all those who think the campaign proved the dangers of user-created content. "Ah, yes," he wrote, "there's quite a few arms raised – you're all free to go, actually; the marketing business doesn't need your services anymore. We have a toy railroad set as your lovely parting gift."
Donaton was taking aim at central tenet of "golden age" mass-media marketing: that by controlling the ad message, Madison Avenue can somehow control perception of the product. "When you do a consumer-generated campaign, you're going to have some negative reaction," Dilworth says. "But what's the option – to stay closed? That's not the future. And besides, do you think the consumer wasn't talking about the Tahoe before?" They were, of course; the difference is that in the YouTube era, the illusion of control is no longer sustainable. "You can either stay in the bunker, or you can jump out there and try to participate," he says. "And to not participate is criminal."

Making a Difference - Camp Programs Give Back to the Community
There can be no doubt that camp is unique – changing the lives of millions of children and youth through positive, intentional experiences. And, just like the experience, the camp community is uniquely positioned to make a difference. By continually striving to do more, be more, and reach more, the camp community supports programs that provide the life-changing experience of camp to children and youth who might not otherwise have had the opportunity.
- Fresh Air Fund — This independent, nonprofit agency, has provided free summer vacations to more than 1.7 million New York City children from low-income communities since 1877. In 2009, close to 5,000 children visited volunteer host families in suburbs and small town communities across 13 states from Virginia to Maine and Canada. Three thousand children also attended five Fresh Air camps on a 2,300-acre site in Fishkill, New York. The Fund's year-round camping program serves an additional 2,000 young people each year. For more information on the Fresh Air Fund, families can visit www.freshair.org.
- Henderson County Young Leaders Program — Started in 1994, the Henderson County Young Leaders Program (HCYLP) is a 501c(3) nonprofit corporation operating under an independent, volunteer board of directors. Program partners include the Henderson County Public Schools, the Boys & Girls Club of Henderson County, and representatives of the local summer camp community. By providing a progression of residential camp, mentoring, and monthly educational experiences to Henderson County children who would otherwise lack such opportunity, the program is developing future community leaders. Families can follow HCYLP on Facebook, or contact the program director, Paige Hafner, at (828) 697-2000 for more information.
- The Main Idea — Founded in 1968, this program was started as a way to provide a positive camp experience to girls ages 9 to 14, regardless of economic status. The Main Idea has created an atmosphere that builds self-confidence, promotes leadership skills, and provides a trusting and secure environment where campers learn to live together, set new goals, and enjoy the natural splendor surrounding them. Each year, about 120 girls participate in the program at Camp Walden in Denmark, Maine, and more than half of these are returning campers. For more information on The Main Idea, families can visit www.themainidea.org.
- Operation Purple® — During the 2010 summer, the National Military Family Association's Operation Purple program is sending nearly 10,000 kids to 68 camps nationwide. The program was created in 2004 to help military children deal with the stresses of having a deployed parent, and to remind them that "Kids Serve Too!" Families can visit www.militaryfamily.org for more information on Operation Purple, or other services provided by the Association.

Three Central Florida teens stole a school bus, picked up other students and went on a 180-mile joy ride, according to officials.
Police say the teens took the bus Sunday night after finding it parked at Lake Wales High School with the keys inside. The teens face charges of grand theft auto and trespassing on school property.
The incident was captured on the bus's video system.
The investigation began Tuesday when a routine inspection of the bus showed gas was missing and 180 extra miles were registered on the odometer since the driver parked it.
Police say the teens covered three of four cameras on the bus. The images of two teens were captured and the name of the third was mentioned. High school staff members identified them, police say.
