Custom Backing Track, a Worldwide Exclusive Offer for Musicians

Lille, North (PRWEB) September 22, 2009

The custom backing track is for all music uses — the possibilities are infinite. For singers who wish to sing on the acoustic version of “Pain it black” while suppressing electric instruments, for musicians who long to play the solo of “Stairway to heaven” on an instrumental-without guitars- version or for singing teachers, masters that want to isolate the vocals of Ella Fitzgerald in her song “Summertime” in order to train pupil’s voice.

The custom backing track is a new feature and an innovative method that offers new possibilities to musicians. The principle is quite simple. By selecting a song, removing the unwanted tracks, the musician gets a drum-and-guitar free custom backing track.

Previously there was no such thing when it came to train. To play on legendary tunes. To rehearse and to record favourite bands while the track involving usual instruments has been removed. This karaoke-version’s feature allows to set the volume of each instrument to create a mp3 accompaniment

The assets of custom backing track are the universal MP3 format, the profesional quality, the possibility to test the program through free songs ready to be mixed, the limitlessness in mixing and over 2000 available songs.

A family business….

The Defossez brothers have always thought that their complementarity could lead to a common project. Jean-Baptiste, the elder, is a computer enthusiast and masters the web brilliantly. Barthélémy, the youngest brother, is particularly gifted in musical creation. They design the Karafun software in 1995, an innovative and promising software at the time. Armed with this experience, they create the RECISIO company and the Karaoke website in September, 2005, in Lille. Only 50 backing tracks where then available. Today, it’s more than 20,000. In less than 4 years, the website has found a major place on the Internet. Figures speak for themselves: more than a million connexions from all around the world each month! Prone to new experiences, always on the look-out for new services, Jean-Baptiste and Barthélémy have launched the “custom backing track” concept in January, 2009.

Susquehanna Health Physicians Perform in Perfect Harmony

Susquehanna Health Physicians Perform in Perfect Harmony











Susquehanna Health Physicians Dr. John Burns, Dr. Francis Powers, Jr., Dr. Timothy Heilmann, Dr. Keith Shenberger, Dr. John Burks, Dr. William Peck, Dr. Alexander Nesbitt and Dr. Carmen Spinney (front, center) pose for a picture following a docappella performance at Historic Bowman Field in Williamsport, PA.


Williamsport, PA (PRWEB) April 20, 2012

An important aspect of high quality healthcare is doctors working together in harmony. About 10 Susquehanna Health (SH) physicians have taken that concept literally by creating a musical interlude they have ingeniously dubbed “docappella.”

The idea for this a cappella ensemble began about 14 years ago and grew from the realization that each physician had previously performed in their respective college glee club. Although this musical group of medical professionals is admittedly leaderless, Rheumatologist Dr. Keith Shenberger credits Dr. William Peck with “getting the ball rolling.” According to Lycoming County Medical Society Executive Director Bonnie Mahoney, docappella began with just four physicians, but has noted up to 18 members including specialists in cardiology, gastroenterology, internal medicine, rheumatology and palliative care.

“We are cast-offs from college glee clubs. You know, like the manager of the basketball team who never got to play. We are living vicariously through our college years now,” explains Dr. Shenberger. In actuality, SH Home Care & Hospice Medical Director and docappella member Dr. Alexander Nesbitt previously lent his vocal talent to the Princeton Nassoons and Dr. Shenberger was a member of the Dartmouth Aires—an a cappella group that recently placed second in The Sing-Off musical competition. Dr. Timothy Heilmann, Williamsport Family Medicine Residency associate director, is one of the group’s notable tenors and Dr. Carmen Spinney, Jersey Shore Medical Associates, Avis, is the sole female and soprano.

Docappella’s four-part musical stylings include barbershop and patriotic pieces and feature amusing melodies such as Robert Shaw’s “Grandfather’s Clock” and a medically altered version of “Aura Lee” (perhaps better known as the tune to “Love Me Tender”). “Our repertoire is eclectic, but basically we always sing the same songs over and over because none of us has time to learn any new ones,” quips Dr. Shenberger. “We’re like a church choir,” he explains, “we perform more than we rehearse.” The group, on several occasions, has rendered a rousing rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner” at the Historic Bowman Field in Williamsport.

In 2009, docappella performed for the Pennsylvania Medical Society’s House of Delegates when Susquehanna Health’s Dr. Daniel Glunk became PAMED president. In 2010, according to Mahoney, the group also performed for Little League International when the World Health Organization presented Lycoming County with Pennsylvania’s first Safe Community award.

“The members of docappella have such a variety of abilities, interests and talents and they combine those abilities, interests and talents to make incredible music. Their sound is amazing, their ability to blend is phenomenal and they are so creative,” says Mahoney, who serves as “road manager” for the group. What is even more amazing is that these doctors find time to perform together given the nature of their work, the fact that they can often be on call and that many serve in other leadership capacities within the community. The group performs only when eight members are able to be present, according to Mahoney, so a larger membership enables some doctors to “fill in the gap” for other doctors when they are unable to participate.

The stylings of these seasoned (forty-something to seventy-something) physicians cater to a more mature crowd. The group’s most recent performance was on the porch of an historic Williamsport home for the 2011 Victorian Christmas tour. According to Dr. Shenberger, it is rare for docappella to return for a repeat performance.

Fortunately, they measure their successes not by the quantity of performances or the localized venues, but by the mere satisfaction obtained through crescendos and syncopations. “At our age, there are few thrills left. They are either prohibited medically or physically impossible,” explains Dr. Shenberger. “We try to get our excitement were we can, and singing can be very exhilarating.”

Lose Weight by Guru Mantra Meditation – 20 Million Followers

Posted by on April 15, 2012 1 comment

Lose Weight by Guru Mantra Meditation – 20 Million Followers













Oyster Bay, NY (PRWEB) April 15, 2012

Search ‘Rich Immigrants’ on the internet to find Dr. Harsimran Singh’s books being ranked #1 on Google, Bing and Yahoo! Dr. Singh brought from East to West the rich heritage of centuries old proven techniques to lose weight by 10 minutes of daily meditation. He wrote 13 inspirational books and has held hundreds of seminars teaching how to achieve physical, spiritual and financial richness by the practice of meditation.

Dr. Singh is now forming a nationwide group of people who may like to benefit from his weekly seminars on meditation by conference telephone calls. In Dr. Singh’s words, “It all starts with thoughts. Thoughts become words, words become actions and repeated actions become habits. Gaining excess weight is a direct result of bad habits. To achieve success in losing weight permanently, habits must be changed. It is very difficult to change habits as they are rooted at the very deepest levels of our subconscious mind.”

How can we change these deep-seated habits?

Meditation is the process through which we engage the subconscious with the conscious level of our mind. This way the power of mind is increased tremendously as the subconscious is a million times more powerful than the conscious level of mind. Meditation takes the mind to the deepest levels of the subconscious, where the mind controls the body, not the other way around. The mind, in this powerful state, is able to dictate that the the body lose weight by changing some habits which are the root cause of the problem.

Following are some additional advantages of meditation:

1. Meditation helps us to explore our inner treasures and develop consciousness to help attain inner happiness. It develops inner strength, energy and realization.

2. Through meditation, our mind becomes positive and by that virtue, our body starts behaving the way we want. Negative thoughts start going away.

3. Through meditation, we begin a new kind of realization of our bones, muscles, tissues and organs. It penetrates every cell of our body and makes positive changes in our cells. Meditation lowers blood pressure, reduces stress and stress related diseases such as heart attack and stroke. It also helps to reduce the use of hypertensive drugs and to quit smoking habit.

4. Meditation helps to channel quality and quantity of thoughts. We don’t feel lonely and don’t have a feeling of emptiness any more. We also don’t feel over crowded with thoughts either. Our mind does not wander around in 1000 different directions.

For a limited time, Dr. Harsimran Singh will practice meditation with the members every week from 9.00 AM -9.30 AM starting Sunday, April 22, 2012 through a telephonic conference call.

Send us an e-mail at loseweight(at)howtobehappysite(dot)com with your name and email address and you will be provided with a conference telephone number.”

About Dr. Harsimran Singh:

Dr. Harsimran Singh is a philanthropist who gave up millions of dollars to establish charitable institutions. He has moved thousands of homeless people into decent housing. He has been featured in Fox News, CBS, and many other TV and radio programs. The NY Times, NY Post and many other newspapers have written full-page articles about his accomplishments. Writing books has been his way to give back to the people of America, where he landed with almost nothing. He loves to encourage people through his public speaking engagements and by providing free meditation classes.

Property Investment Strategies Revealed in the Face of Australian Interest Rate Forecast

Posted by on April 8, 2012 1 comment

Property Investment Strategies Revealed in the Face of Australian Interest Rate Forecast













Property Investment Strategies, Rick Otton


(PRWEB) April 07, 2012

With the official Australian interest rate unchanged, most people are looking forward to a better financial situation for the rest of the year, but most economists predict otherwise.

Even though the Reserve Bank of Australia has announced the interest rate to be kept at 4.75% for September, financial experts forecast more cuts in the interest rate due to the rising uncertainty in the global market. This forecast will significantly affect the real estate business and Rick Otton, a property guru, believes that Australians would need alternative property options other than what the banks are offering.

Rick Otton has developed revolutionary property options that do not involve large deposits or bank loans. His strategies have given him a solid property portfolio and financial freedom, and he teaches his thousands of students to do the same.

“Our banking system is changing and financial experts warn of a worsening global economy,” Mr.Otton explained. “Getting a loan in these financial conditions is difficult, so how are we going to buy houses?”

Creative Investing in Property Australian Style

With the ongoing struggle the world market is going through, it has become impossible for prospective home buyers and property investors to secure a loan from traditional lending organizations. It is in these desperate times, Rick Otton believes, that creative real estate strategies emerge.

“My strategies themselves were born out of desperation. During the Savings and Loans crisis in Texas in 1980, I wanted to buy houses but the banks would not grant me any loan. They stopped lending so I formulated my own rent to by strategies,” Mr. Otton said.

His property options have been tested and proven in the USA, UK, New Zealand and now Australia. “Australians have been at the mercy of traditional lenders for a very long time, and I believe it’s time for them to learn alternative property options,” he explained.

Mr. Otton said that prospective Australian home owners and aspiring property investors are hindered by the strict lending requirements and high real estate prices.

“Things are changing everywhere, even the way we buy properties. I like to share my strategies to my students so they too can create their own property portfolio.”

About Creative Real Estate

For more than three decades, Rick Otton has been teaching his students sound strategies in real estate investing. Taking advantage of the latest communication technology, Mr. Otton has developed podcasts that would make creative real estate accessible to a larger audience. The website contains a list of podcasts discussing real estate issues and Rick Otton’s property investing secrets.

More details are available at http://www.creativerealestate.com.au/

About Rick Otton

Rick Otton is an original pioneer of creative property strategies. He is founder and CEO of We Buy Houses, a leading property enterprise which operates in the property markets of the United Kingdom, New Zealand, USA and Australia.

In 1991 he uncovered an innovative strategy of buying and selling real estate and went on to amass a portfolio of 76 properties in his first twelve months of active investing.

Since 2001, Rick has taught over 30,000 students to buy, sell and trade residential property without banks, debt or risk. By employing these same strategies many of Rick’s students have made over a million dollars a year in cash and equity, using little or none of their own money, year after year.

In 2008 Rick revealed his strategies in the United Kingdom and became the creator of ‘Houses for a Pound’.

He has appeared in the following Australian TV programs: 2004 ABC documentary ‘Reality Bites’ and on Today Tonight, Insight and A Current Affair. In October 2007 Rick gave a way a house on national TV during 2 episodes of Channel 9’s Hot Property.

Rick Otton has also been featured in Your Property Network, Australian Property Investor, Lifestyle Trader Magazines and in the books: The Secrets of Property Millionaires Exposed!, Ideas: Original Perspectives On Life and Business From Leading Thinkers, Think and Grow Rich in Property, Insider Property Secrets, and Walking With The Wise.

Outlook for Canadian IPO Activity Uncertain: PwC Survey Reported On By Big4.com

Outlook for Canadian IPO Activity Uncertain: PwC Survey Reported On By Big4.com











Big4

(PRWEB) April 05, 2012

Big4.com, the premier social networking forum for professionals and alumni of Accenture, Andersen, BearingPoint, Capgemini, Deloitte, Ernst & Young, KPMG and PricewaterhouseCoopers, PwC has highlighted the major points from a PwC survey that shows the Canadian IPO market is struggling.

PwC’s survey of the IPO market in Canada is ten years old. These quarterly reports provide information to the corporate sector, investors, the media and others providing perspective. Without a single IPO on the TSX, the total new capital raised on Canadian exchanges struggled to top $ 20 million from 13 new issues in the first quarter of 2012.

Dean Braunsteiner, PwC national IPO services leader commented on the situation that has left the outlook for the balance of 2012 uncertain.

“The first quarter 2012 results were an extension of the low levels of activity in the final quarter of 2011 when markets were weighed down by the European debt crisis and extreme market volatility,” he says. “The much hoped-for resolution of the debt crisis in Greece came too late to help the IPO market in the first quarter, and concerns over slowing growth in China have troubled commodity markets. It’s not surprising the first quarter of 2012 looked a lot like the last quarter of 2011.”

Big4.com also reported on the fact that a single $ 25 million issue on the TSX in the fourth quarter and a reduction in activity on the TSX Venture exchange generated just $ 52 million from 10 new issues on all Canadian exchanges in the final three months of 2011. First quarter 2012 IPO results were 10% of the same period of 2011, when 13 new issues, including two on the TSX, generated more than $ 198 million.

WatchMojo Surpasses 750 Million All-Time Video Views in Q1 2012

Posted by on March 31, 2012 1 comment

WatchMojo Surpasses 750 Million All-Time Video Views in Q1 2012










Montreal, QC (PRWEB) March 31, 2012

WatchMojo followed up its first full year of profitability in 2011 by surpassing 750 million all-time views in the first quarter of 2012.

WatchMojo finished 2010 with 245 million all-time views and then added 466 million total video views throughout 2011 to finish the year with 711 million cumulative views, crossing 750 million combined streams in February 2012.

“It’s important to put these numbers into perspective: the reality is that YouTube generates 4 billion views per day, for some aggregators or ad networks these numbers would be disappointing,” explains WatchMojo CEO Ashkan Karbasfrooshan. “But,” he continues: “for a content creator that owns a big catalog of evergreen videos, these numbers are pretty strong and serve as a validation of both our editorial vision and distribution strategy. Most importantly, the growth in these numbers will only accelerate as video becomes more commonplace on the Web, mobile and tablets.”

Indeed, in a year that saw YouTube tower over its competitors, WatchMojo’s YouTube channel now features over 6,500 of its videos, generating over 125 million views. Meanwhile, WatchMojo has managed to diversify its distribution and revenue streams across thousands of top-tier, mid- and long-tail sites thanks to the breadth and depth of its library.

Since 2006, WatchMojo has created one of the largest libraries of professionally-produced, premium videos on the people, places and trends that have shaped the world.    

WatchMojo was founded in 2006 by Ashkan Karbasfrooshan and has emerged as one of the most industrious and polished video content creators with a catalogue of seven thousand videos on lifestyle, entertainment and knowledge. The company’s pop culture and infotainment videos are carried on portals including Yahoo!, MSN and AOL, as well as video destinations like YouTube, Hulu and many others. Throughout the year, WatchMojo added Time Warner’s Roadrunner.com and many other distribution partners.

Expanding its tentacles away from the Web and into mobile, out-of-home, and over-the-top connected devices; WatchMojo also helps academic publishers teach global students how to speak English. Indeed, WatchMojo has become the de facto video provider to academic publishers, media companies and ad networks.

In out-of-home digital networks, WatchMojo generated well over a billion impressions throughout 2011 alone.

Additionally, the company:

    Crossed 10 million all-time audited mobile streams/downloads in the quarter, as well (the total number including unaudited views is much higher).
    Launched its iPad app to reach consumers on Apple’s popular tablet, which has sold over 55 million units thus far (it took Apple 22 years to sell 55 million Macs; 5 years to sell 22 million iPods and it took us about 3 years to sell that many iPhones).

Today, WatchMojo reaches 50 million consumers per month across its many platforms.

About WatchMojo

WatchMojo informs and entertains through video by covering the people, places and trends that you care about. The company’s short-form programming answer the questions on Who, What, Where, When and Why across thousands of topics in Automotive, Business, Comedy, Education, Fashion, Film, Food, Health & Fitness, History, How To, Lifestyle, Music, Politics, Science, Space, Sports, Urban Living, Technology, Travel and Video Games.

Providing videos to the world’s largest media companies and academic organizations, WatchMojo is a leading producer of professionally-produced, premium, brand-safe, evergreen, videos. The company’s catalogue of seven thousand videos has generated 750 million video views online and billions more in out-of-home digital networks.

Digiday picked WatchMojo alongside CBS and HBO as the three finalists in the Best Entertainment Category at the Digiday Video Awards. Marketing Magazine picked WatchMojo as one of Canada’s Digital Media Companies to Watch in its September 2011 issue.
