The Voice of Heard/A Rap Song That Speaks to Video Gamers

Submitted by TC Tim on February 20, 2010 - 2:03am.

Just tonight, I spotted a really interesting article at the website GamePolitics.  A certain man with a career in interactive entertainment named Jason/Jace Hall, has written a rap song called I Play W.O.W.  This song targets and speaks to everyone who loves to play video games and can't stand being labeled by the mass media, legislation-crusading politicians, culturally-biased scientists, overly concerned parents, and anyone else who doesn't understand the culture of video games as lazy, desensitized, anti-social couch potatoes who contribute to childhood obesity and unprovoked violence.  The song is now available on iTunes.  Although I am unable to buy the song from it, I managed to listen to two samples of the song, one explicit and the other clean.  From what I can tell by listening to the samples, it does ring the gamer's soul in me.  For more information abou

Youth Help With School Bus Retrofit Project

Submitted by Judy on February 17, 2010 - 1:16pm.

Teens from the Worcester Youth Center helped set up the recent press release and also helped distribute a Clean Air/Health Survey for which they then organized the data and helped to create a PowerPoint to show the finding. The PowerPoint was then used by the MA Clean Diesel Program at the press event where environmental health organizations and city officials celebrated the clean up of diesel school buses to protect the health of school children and the public. School bus companies First Student, AA Transportation and Transpro all contracted by the Worcester Public Schools to provide school bus services have won awards from the MA Clean Diesel School Bus Program to get diesel retrofits for a total of 31 buses. These retrofits are enhanced exhaust filtering systems which are able to scrub the emissions that come out of the tailpipes to be cleaner. "These buses aren't just cleaner for their riders, but for their drivers and all the neighborhoods they travel daily," stated Mayor Joseph O'Brien. Young Views Real News will be interviewing some of the youth that participated in this project in an upcoming show.
