Smule (http://www.smule.com) has announced the winners of the company’s “This Contest Blows” Ocarina video contest. Conceived as a way to reward its raving Ocarina fans with $1,000 per winner, the contest attracted a number of surprising and creative videos. Many contestants demonstrated musical talent, as well as Smulean je ne sais quoi.
The ten winners are:
Hardrockgrl’s “Oh Shenandoah”  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glrpGjFit1k
David Choi’s cover of “Hot N Cold” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhhtFAT2HqM

“Whistle Stop” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fa0EcHPFhtE
“Carol of the Bells” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFQ7GTDlsO0
“Song of Storms” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olO1J8M8IaY
And finally, “Music of the Nose” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6HHZLDdPqM, (in addition to the $1,000 prize, Noseflute will also receive a box of Kleenex and a bottle of Purell!)
Some entries were so peculiar that the panel of Smule judges felt compelled to add a special category of videos, the ‘Oca-razzies.’ Some of the strangest submissions include:
A cat playing Ocarina http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBUuqWQbUuI
Someone ‘playing’ his iPhone http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_SBi-Ac9-4 with his posterior…!!!
Singing, (remember William Hung?), over another entrant’s Ocarina playing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJc6UxDJkAQ
…and many more, too bizarre to describe. These are available for viewing on Smule’s website http://ocarina.smule.com/contest/
Additionally, since the intent is to nurture budding Ocarina talent, Smule will extend the contest to Friday, February 13, and announce 5 more $1,000 prize winners on Smule’s Mule live broadcast February 16th.

Resolution
Please update to iTunes 9. If updating to iTunes 9 does not resolve the issue, please continue:

The error will most commonly occur while syncing music. This issue can be resolved by following these steps:

1.Select the iPhone or iPod touch in iTunes under Devices.
2.Click the Music tab and under the Sync music option, choose Selected playlists.
3.Deselect the Voice Memos playlist.
4.Click Apply and then click Sync.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, check the device and the iTunes library for duplicate voice memos. If you find any duplicate voice memos, delete the duplicates and then sync.

If those steps do not resolve the issue, then follow these steps:

1.Select the iPhone or iPod touch in iTunes under Devices.
2.Click the Music tab and deselect the Sync Music option.
3.Click Apply and then click Sync.
4.After the sync is complete, reselect the Sync Music option.
5.Click Apply and then click Sync.
If the Error 13019 occurs while syncing content other than music (applications, podcasts, and so on), then perform the same steps above but uncheck the content that stops syncing with Error 13019.

If the steps above do not resolve the issue, attempt to sync an empty iTunes music library to the device while logged in as a new admin user. Follow these steps to create a new admin user:
