I sounds to me as if you've enabled all of the quota machinery, but that you need to actually initialise the system and set some quotas for each user on the partition. You need to run quotacheck(8) to initialise the quota.user and/or quota.group files -- that should happen automatically when you reboot, or you can run it manually by: # quotacheck -v -a That may take some time to run, and there shouldn't be any activity on the filesystem while it is being checked -- best way to ensure that is to drop to single user mode while you run it. Having done that, what's the output of: % repquota /usr To set up the quota limits for each user use edquota(1).

I am currently working on and touring my first show, Bedtime. Here are all the posters for the different iterations (we're talking an average of a poster a gig). It's a dreamscape show in which we confront our night terrors and are asked to contemplate an orange.
My first solo-effort was in 2016 with a half hour of delicious Wilbur Bilb: Child Detective. He was good fun, and if I could find the original scripts I'd probably still gig this around as it had some very tight gags. Unfortunately I went a bit crazy towards the end of the Edinburgh Fringe and deleted the word doc (the modern equivalent of burning the journals).

MARTINSVILLE, Va. – The field for Martinsville Speedway's Kroger 250 might be said to be a study in extremes.
Six entered drivers have gone to Victory Lane at the .526-mile oval. Six others are attempting to make their first NASCAR national series appearance.
Forty-two different competitors have made their first NASCAR Camping World Truck Series start at Martinsville.
Among the group is NASCAR Sprint Cup champion Brad Keselowski, who debuted in the Kroger 250 on April 17, 2004. Timothy Peters is the only competitor to claim both first series start (2005) and victory (2009) at Martinsville.
Peters, Johnny Sauter, Ron Hornaday Jr., Kevin Harvick, David Starr and Scott Riggs are Martinsville winners expected to compete in Saturday's race.
Kyle Busch Motorsports brings a pair of first-timers to the event: NASCAR Drive for Diversity graduate Darrell Wallace Jr. and Erik Jones. Wallace finished third in a 2010 NASCAR K&N Pro Series East race at the track. He's 19; Jones is 16.
"I've got the same truck that Denny [Hamlin] won with here last year so there's no reason we shouldn't be up front," said Wallace during a recent test day. "It's going to be key for all of us to learn as much as we can from Kyle [Busch]. If we can pick his brain to get as much as we can, we should be pretty good right off the bat."
Others debuting are Chase Elliott, 17, son of 1988 NSCS champion Bill Elliott and a NASCAR Next9 driver; Grant Galloway, 18, an Indiana midget racer; Devin Jones, 16, a transplanted Californian racing out of Hickory, N.C., and Jonathan Davenport, a 29-year-old late model dirt touring competitor.

However, now that I am a working mom, I am finding that the slow cooker can really help me get dinner on the table mid-week as well as on Shabbat. I have been reading a lot of slow cooker recipes in magazines and on Pinterest (did you know you could even bake a cake in one!?!). I got inspired to try something new.
This dish is a perfect one pot meal. It has a protein (chicken), a starch (brown rice), and a vegetable (fennel). It works great as a weeknight meal, as a Shabbat dinner entree, or as a cholent replacement for Shabbat lunch. Don't be scared away by the fennel. This licorice tasting vegetable gets very sweet and tender when cooked. In fact, it is quite child friendly: my one year old son gobbled up the fennel faster than I could get it on his plate!
Slow Cooker Chicken and Fennel(This recipe is an adaptation from Real Simple magazine)
2 lbs chicken thighs and legs, bone-in, with as much skin removed as possible
1 cup dry brown basmati rice
2 fennels, sliced. Reserve some fronds for serving
½ onion, sliced
2 ½ cups water mixed with 1 scant Tablespoon bouillon (alternative could be 2 ½ cups low sodium chicken broth)
1 Tablespoon paprika, divided
Directions:Place chicken in bottom of slow cooker. Sprinkle some of the paprika on the chicken. Pour dried rice on top of chicken and layer onion and fennel on top. Sprinkle remainder of paprika over vegetables. Pour water/broth into the crockpot. Cover. Cook on low for about 7 hours or high for about 4 hours. Garnish with fennel fronds. Serve with a green vegetable or salad.

I can't forget to talk about my latest thoughts on my big decision: continue working or become a SAHM. The latest to add to the positive and negative chart: Jack's daycare. His school, The Primrose School is phenomenal. Expensive? Yes. When we made the decision to put our son in Primrose, I about gagged at the cost ($335/week for infants) but my husband and I both agreed that putting him in the best program getting educational value from the start would be the best thing and we would pay top dollar for it. Not to brag, but last night at dinner, he spouted out the entire ABC's including "Now I know my ABC's, Next time won't you sing with me." No shit. My husband and I were jumping up and down cheering him on. Why? He isn't even 2 yet! WTH? Either my son is ridiculously gifted or, we can chalk it up to the awesomeness of Primrose. Perhaps it is a little bit of both, but we give Primrose an incredible amount of credit in his development. At the risk of ripping on myself a little bit, I just am not entirely sure he would be who he is if it weren't for Primrose. I feel like pulling him out of this school could be a bad choice and could disrupt his progress. I also suddenly feel incredibly selfish. Boo-hoo, I hate my job, so what? I'm just gonna quit? Throw a tantrum? Yank my kid out of GREAT nurturing environment in which he is thriving? How fair is that? I'm one of the lucky ones who HAS a job. I watched my former boss struggle for 8 months looking for a job supporting his two little girls on his mere unemployment check. My situation really could be worse. Shouldn't I just suck it up and deal with it for my kid's sake? If he were in a not so good daycare environment, this would be a much easier decision for me to make. But really, this decision seems to be turning into a selfish ME ME ME situation.
No, I haven't come close to making a decision yet but it helps to be able to vent some of my thoughts about it. Come November, I will lay all of this out on the table. Hopefully before then I will have an epiphany and be able to make a decision I can be at peace with both for me and my family.

Have you been meaning to spend hours online, trolling Pinterest and other similar sites for fabulous kids' party ideas? Let me save you some time… Visit Life & Baby.
I have the pleasure of saying that I know Evelyn, the owner of Life & Baby; she and I worked together about a millions years ago. In any case, with her impeccable taste, Evelyn saves you hours on the internet, gathering a ton of amazingly chic party ideas on her lovely site.
In addition to the parties, she also features some super-talented photographers and reviews high-end products for, well, life and baby. But it's really the party ideas that stand out to me.
Tell me you can't imagine Miles having a lumberjack party.

A member of Bar Council file petition against AIMIM Chief Owaisi : Anil Kumar Bakshi, the petitioner, who is a member of UP Bar Council filed a petition in a court against AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi seeking lodging a case against him. Asaduddin Owaisi gave his remarks on those who were held by NIA amounted to treason and promoted terrorism.
The petitioner said today that Owaisi and his party will provide legal aid to five youths arrested by National Investigation Agency (NIA) amounts to treason.
The remark of Owaisi also shows that he is supporting terrorism and promote the terrorism. Bakshi said that he filed a complainant yesterday with Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate (ACJM) seeking filing of cases under many section which are mentioned in the Indian Penal Code.
The case filed under the following sections:
- 114(abetting the crime)
- 115(abetment of offence punishable with death or imprisonment for life)
- 117(abetting commission of offence)
- 121(waging against the Government of India)
- 121A(conspiracy to commit offences punishable by section 121)
- 124A(sedition)
- 131(abetting mutiny)
- 132(abetment of mutiny)
- 200(using as true such declaration knowing it to be false)
There are some more section mentioned in the complaint as follow:
- 153(promoting enmity between different groups)
- 332(voluntarily causing hurt to deter public servant from his duty)
- 153A(act of promoting enmity between different groups)
- 504(intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace)
- 505(statements conducing to public mischief)
The concerned court said that the hearing on the complaint will be held on July 6 2016. On Friday,Asaduddin Owaisi who is the President of All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) said that AIMIM would provide legal aid to help the youths who were arrested by the NIA on charges of involvement in an alleged ISIS terror activity. Owaisi also said that he and his party does not support terrorism.
This is not the first time that Owaisi gave this type of remarks. He delivered speech in such a way that he hates the other religious people and it seems that he is not loyal to his country India.
Last controversy of Owaisi that he said that if Prime Minister of India put a knife on his neck, he will not chant the slogan "Bharat Mata Ki Jai". This shows the mentality of Asaduddin Owaisi.

I know the Lil Jon were doing really well amongst my circle of friends that fishes south west Florida, but they tells me the Lil Jon are rocking and rolling all over Florida. Not only that they are starting to do really good in Texas as well. And like Mark of DOA was telling me, international sales has really picked up. Good to see local companies doing well in this economy.
Here's the scoop folks. I was visiting the L&S/MirroLure factory yesterday to do a little factory tour video(coming soon). Mike T. was cool enough to show me the new colors they are coming out with specifically for the ever popular Lil Jon plastics.

Re: DAOS Backup and Restore
Cool to use DAOS but how can users search in archive & mail ? move between them?
This is the solution :
DAOS Backup and Restore
The daos.cfg and daoscat.nsf files should NOT be backed up.
Restore of inactive NLO files
My TSM guy tells me
dsmc restore -filelist=missing.txt
would work only for active backup files. For deleted NLO files this would be necessary:
dsmc restore -filelist=missing.txt -inact
Backing up DAOSCAT.NSF
This article says "The daos.cfg and daoscat.nsf files should not be backed up" IBM Technote 1358548 which this article appears to be largely a copy of says the opposite. Which is correct ?

Negotiating 'Peace' and Not Getting There
The Middle East Quartet (United Nations, the United States, the European Union, and Russia) is promoting new "peace talks" as a means of holding off the Palestinian bid for independence. American pundits are proffering ways for the United States to "jump-start" the talks, including "American" positions on core issues. Barbara Slavin at AOL is one of those. Slavin believes that the Palestinians are way out in front of the Israelis in offering "detailed proposals" on core issues, so the U.S. should simply announce where borders might usefully go and then move on to other things. She cites the work of David Makovsky, an American longtime observer who is preparing maps. "Where geography meets demography," Makovsky says. The maps themselves sound reasonable -- Israel keeps the main settlement blocs and the Palestinians would get maximum contiguous territory, rather like President Bush's 2004 letter to Prime Minister...(Read Full Article)

I hope everyone enjoyed the Fourth as much as we did! We started with the traditional Parade. Our town still has a small town feel, but is growing to a large town quickly. We stood in the same spot we have for the past three years. It was a beautiful day. The weather could not have been nicer.
We went home, had lunch, and let Adler get his nap. Then Gina and I headed over to the party! We lived with my sister while our house was being built, three years ago, and we were adopted by her court as neighbors. They have included us in everything ever since. It is great! Our neighbors aren't in the same phase of life as we are (most are retired) so Gina has a blast with all of the kids here.
Adler enjoyed his first ever BOMB POP!
Then a tuckered out little boy and his Daddy headed home, before the fireworks! Adler loves a routine!
He is pretty fond of his Daddy too! *Oh I made Gina's dress for her to wear 2 years ago, she wore it then, and it still fits! Yeah!

looks like a great time! We don't have any local parades here...there are some in the downtown area of the city...but I am sooo not a city girl, so we never drive the 45 minutes to attend any. We just had a simple day at home with a little bbq, swimming, and some family...and of course the fireworks for my boys :)

Looks like a fabulous time was had. I was just thinking that Gina's dress looks really appropriate for the celebrations and then saw that you sewed it. Looks cute!

I've been buying music on CD like crazy lately! I used to buy on the average on one CD a week back in the later '80s and early '90s, but that slacked off, especially in the last decade or so. In the early 2Ks I bought a HUGEe CD rack and have long since filled it. I recently moved an antique magazine rack (filled with comics) out of my entertainment room and replaced it with a new shelf. Now that I have space to fill, I'm buying CDs and DVDs like a fiend again. At least that's one theory. But I digress. Here's what I've bought recently and am in the process of listening to now.
PETE TOWNSEND: "SCOOP 3": As mentioned above.
CSN (and sometimes Y): I forgot to mention above that I recently bought Déjà Vu, the first album by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young (or the second album by Crosby ,Stills and Nash). I've had their first album for a long time but have never listened to this album before (although I was familiar with most of the songs on it). Then, yesterday, following recent "demo" albums from Pete Townsend and Prince, I bought a CD of CS&N demos. I haven't even listened to it yet.
JOHN LENNON: "IMAGINE": what I initially went into the record store for, though, was the reissue of this classic, which includes single, outtakes and more demos.
CHICAGO: "LIVE RADIO 1980":: While I was there I found this one. It's not an official release; it's on a knock-off label, but the package was nice and it contains a mix of songs they no longer perform. I hope this is "live" in the studio and played on the radio, rather than "live in concert." (Obviously I haven't had a chance to listen to this one, either.) I do remember taping a live concert off the radio around this time (on cassette), but I ran out of tape right in the middle of a really cool trombone riff. If this CD ends up being that I'll be happy.
BOB DYLAN: "TRIPLICATE": If you'd've asked me yesterday about Bob Dylan's recent albums of Frank Sinatra numbers and tunes from the "Great American Somgbook," I'd've told you the first came out in 2017 and the second earlier this year. Nuh uh. The first came out in 2015, the second in 2016, and the third (!) in 2017. I didn't even know about that one. I bought it yesterday, too, three CDs.
THE MOODY BLUES: I've been thinking about the Moody Blues ever since Kevin posted about listening to the seven "classic" albums last month. The only one I have on CD is Days of Future Past (which I did listen to last week). I used to have In Search of the Lost Chord years ago on cassette, but it's been decades since I've even seen it. I've accumulated a lot of "points" at my LRS (Local Record Shop) lately, so I applied them to free used copies of In Search of the Lost Chord and On the threshold of a Dream (and, no, I haven't listened t these yet, either). If my purpose holds, my LRS has used copies of the others as well.
I returned to the Moody Blues this weekend. I chose To Our Children's Children's Children but In Search Of The Lost Chord will be next in my listening line up.
Also listening to Catch Bull At Four by Cat Stevens. I love the song Angelsea - one of his best.

If my purpose holds, my LRS has used copies of the others as well.
CHICAGO: "LIVE RADIO 1980": This one ended up being a bootleg of the worst possible quality. It sounds like a concert performance broadcast over the radio and recorded with a hand-held microphone. The track abruptly stops immediately when the music ends, then starts back up again when the music starts (usually a split second after). There's no way Chicago would approve of such a release. I couldn't imagine how such a thing could exist without the band taking legal action. Then I read some fine print on the packaging which may explain it. I noticed before I bought it that it was on a knock-off label (LASERMedia). What I didn't notice is that it is a product of Omis, Cyprus. I post this as a warning: Don't be fooled!
JANIS JOPLIN: Several years ago a friend of mine was making a mix of some music to listen to while he drove the length of (what used to be) Route 66. I had a lot of what he wanted, but there was one song by Janis Joplin that I didn't. His request pointed out a deficiency in my record collection which I soon rectified. Prior to that, the only Joplin I owned was the first album by Big Brother and the Holding Company. I was listening to this "other" song yesterday, and I interpreted in a way I never had before.
PINK FLOYD: After watching the Doctor Strange movie a couple of weeks ago, I finally got around to queuing up "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn." Good stuff, mostly, if a little uneven.
MOODY BLUES: I finally got around to listening to "In Search of the Lost Chord," too, and guess what? No disc! I remember what happened. I made some new purchases in the same transaction and filled up a punch card. I also had another punch card already filled. (For every nine CDs you buy, you get a used CD free.) I had picked out two Moody Blues discs (see above), but in the midst of getting my cards punched, the clerk forgot to give me my discs and I didn't notice. I knew they'd still be behind the counter, though, but the manager was so mortified he gave me three extra punches.
When I was nine or ten years old, I got a cassette player for my birthday. I also got to choose one cassette tape. (For the record, I chose Inna-Gadda-Da-Vida by the Iron Butterfly.) In addition, I soon "inherited" all of my older sister's cassettes, which included Chicago at Carnegie Hall, Love It To Death by Alice Cooper, Brothers and Sisters by the Allman Brothers (a previous birthday present from me to my sister, picked out by my older brother), and the Broadway cast recording of Hair. (I still remember walking around the playground of my elementary school singing "Sodomy" at recess; I had no idea what I was singing about.)
In Search of the Lost Chord was also among them. I used to listen to that one quite a bit, but I know I haven't heard it in at least 40 years. I haven't thought of those songs in years, but when I listened to the CD, they all came flooding back. (This album taught me the word "tarmac.")
BOB DYLAN: Today I am listening to the first disc of Biograph.
50th ANNIVERSARY RELEASES:
THE BEATLES "WHITE ALBUM": Remastered by Giles Martin (George Martin's son). I didn't buy it so much for the original album, but for the demos. Like last year's Sgt. Pepper anniversary remix, The Beatles contains demo versions of all the tracks, in original album order. What's more, beyond that, there are demos of several other tunes that didn't make the original cut (some which eventually ended up on solo efforts). There is at least one song (George Harrison's "Sour Milk Sea") which I have never heard before, perhaps more (I haven't finished listening to it yet). It's quite similar to the mid-'90s Anthology, but more complete.
JIMI HENDRIX "ELECTRIC LADYLAND": Again, I'm more interested in the demos than the remastered album itself. I went to my LCS (Local Record Shop) last weekend, but the only version they had was a "harcover" the size of a vinyl album, and three discs including a blueray DVD. I was interested in the music, so I gave it a pass. I found out later this is the only version there is. I'll probably buy it someday soon.
ELVIS "1968 COMEBACK SPECIAL": Like Electric Ladyland, my LCS had one in stock, it was a "package dea;" with blueray DVD, I passed on it, and I discovered later this is the only version there is. I would have been more likely to buy this set because the blueray is the TV special itself. Again, I'll probably buy this one someday soon, too.
I don't know which one I'll buy first. I like this particular Jimi Hendrix album better than this particular Elvis album, but Tracy likes Elvis in general better than Elvis.
George Harrison gave Sour Milk Sea to Jackie Lomax who was one of the original signees to the Apple Records label. The song used to get occasional airplay on the FM rock stations in the early Seventies. As I recall, it was a pretty good song.
Thanks, Kevin... I did not know that. Yes, "Sour Milk Sea" is a pretty good song, and a welcome surprise to me, who thought I'd heard it all. the other two songs I suspected I might know were both John Lennon numbers, "Child of Nature" and "Circles." Of these, "Child of Nature" was the biggest surprise. Given its title, I thought it might be an early, abandoned version of "Mother Nature's Son," but no. It's an early version of "Jealous Guy"! I wonder if Lennon and McCartney were working on individual parts of the same song (like chorus and verse) with the thought of merging them (Paul tells the story and John philosophizes). I thought "Circles" might have been the Beatles fooling around in the studio with the song with the same title by the Who, but no. It's thematically similar (it would almost have to be), but nothing special. Over all, I really like the "demo version" of The Beatles (but it was relaeased sans serial number). I (briefly) mentioned the remix (with demos) of John Lennon's Imagine above. that one, too, includes a "demo version" of the album, as does last year's Sgt. Pepper (as I mentioned yesterday). together, the three make a nice little "trilogy" of rereleases.
ELVIS '68 COMEBACK SPECIAL: Amazon has it today for $71 ($16 off). It's seven discs. Holy crikey, that's a lotta Elvis! Here's the listing:
"NBC-TV's Elvis is as raw and inspirational today as it was in 1968. This 50th Anniversary Edition includes all the known audio recordings from RCA's vault and all the videotaped performances are here for the first time on Blu-ray. For millions of fans, including a young Bruce Springsteen, the Elvis '68 Comeback Special was a life-changing event. "I remember I waited for weeks for the '68 Special," Springsteen recollected recently. "I knew it was coming. I can remember exactly where our TV was set up in the dining room, the exact place I was sitting. I mean, it's one of those things that's imprinted on my memory forever."
"CAREER-DEFINING '68 COMEBACK - * 7-Disc definitive box set chronicles the pivotal NBC-TV '68 special called Elvis and takes you behind the scenes in audio and remastered 4:3 Blu-ray video. * Contains ALL KNOWN recordings/rehearsals from the RCA vaults and from original NBC-TV videotapes. * 80-page book includes a new, oral history on the special, crafted from interviews with producer Steve Binder, recording engineer Bones Howe, Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen, Priscilla Presley, Emmylou Harris, Scotty Moore conducted for Thom Zimny's 2018 documentary, "Elvis Presley: The Searcher." * The book also features rare photos and memorabilia and full recording data. * Over 7.5 hours of footage across 2 newly mastered Blu-ray discs, overseen by Thom Zimny. Track Listing CD 1 - The Original Album + Bonus Cuts CD 2 - First "Sit Down Show," First "Stand Up Show" CD 3 - Second "Sit Down Show," Second "Stand Up Show" CD 4 - First Rehearsal + Second Rehearsal CD 5 - The Wrecking Crew Sessions Blu-ray Disc 1 Blu-ray Disc 2"
"Tracy likes Elvis in general better than Elvis."
Of course, I meant to say, "Tracy likes Elvis in general better than Jimi Hendrix."
The 2019 calendar and CD from Blues Images is available now.
All of the 23 tracks are rare, but four of them are recorded from the only records of these songs known to exist.
Tracy surprised me with both the '68 Comeback Special and Electric Ladyland blueray/CD sets. So far, I have listened to only the Electric Ladyland demos and watched only the Elvis TV special. Tracy liked the demos of Hendrix by himself, but not the jam sessions so much. Me, I liked it all.
Lately I've been listening to inexpensive collections from such labels as One Day Music, Real Gone Music and Not Now Music. Respectively, these are a two CD collection of The Chess Story, a four CD collection of Sun Singles, and a four CD collectioin of "Rockabilly Greats."

As a person gets older everything tends to slow down, in my case, it was my metabolism. I gained a few pounds over the years and I told myself I will not be a victim of having mommy weight without a baby. I revamped my life, which means I work out 5 days a week, also hired a personal trainer. Eat more greens and cut back on my alcohol intake. So far it's been a great journey and I'm happy with what I accomplished so far.
My trainer taught me a few workouts that I absolutely love and I wanted to share those workout moves with you all. Images, from my Pinterest board, are listed below.

The Community College of Rhode Island does not automatically give credit for courses taken elsewhere. Students entering CCRI who have satisfactorily completed collegiate level courses at other regionally accredited institutions may have their courses evaluated by the Records Department once their academic goals have been established; preparatory classes are not transferable. Additionally, quarter hour credits earned are converted to semester hour credits by a ¾ ratio.
Grades of "C-" or better in courses required by the CCRI program of study are required for transfer, however, some programs may have more stringent policies. Except for literature, speech, writing and select art courses, credits completed beyond ten (10) years do not transfer, unless the student seeks approval of the chairperson responsible for the intended major.
If transferred coursework meets the benchmark (minimum grade requirement) for PBHS admissions, additional transfer coursework for the same requirement cannot be granted. However, if a student chooses to repeat the required course it can only be completed at CCRI. Students should first meet with an admissions officer or academic advisor for guidance/academic plan. Additionally, applicants to the Nursing Program must have completed BIOL 1020 Human Physiology within five (5) years of entering NURS 1010 Nursing I.
The Records Department does not evaluate any health, rehabilitative health or technical courses taken at other institutions. Any student that has this type of coursework should contact the appropriate chairperson to explore if transfer credit or challenge exams are appropriate.
Individuals with military training or substantial life experience in a specific field may explore Prior Learning Assessment (PLA). Additionally, students that have completed the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) or Advance Placement (AP) exams are encouraged to send their official scores to the Office of Advising & Counseling, Knight Campus – Warwick.
Transfer students are required to take the ACCUPLACER placement exams. Failure to take appropriate exams may cause problems when trying to register for courses that require placement test scores as prerequisites. The Office of Enrollment Services does not override testing requirements.
The total amount of credits transferred, including, PLA awards, may not exceed 75%of the credits required for a degree or certificate program. For more information regarding transfer policies please review the College Catalog. The transfer credit review process takes several weeks to complete and may take longer during peak periods. Therefore, students are encouraged to send official transcripts from all prior institutions immediately after applying to the College. Transcripts should be sent directly to the Records Department at the Flanagan Campus in Lincoln, regardless of what campus a student may be attending. Students will be notified by mail once transcripts have been evaluated.
The Records Department maintains a Transfer Evaluation System (TES) to show how courses have historically transferred to CCRI. Potential students are encouraged to review the information listed in the database. Courses not found in this list may still be transferable. However, those courses will be assessed upon submission of an official transcript and acceptance into a degree or certificate program at CCRI.
Please note: Foreign transcripts must be evaluated by an outside agency prior to submission to
the Community College of Rhode Island. A course-by-course evaluation with grade and
credit hour equivalency is required for transfer credit assessment. However, CCRI
does not transfer English or health science courses taken in foreign countries, plus,
limited math, science, and technology courses are transferable. The following are

The Discussion
Very cool video. Would love to integrate this into my presence status!
Can you host this on a mobile friendly Drupal site, so users can get a taste of this on their phone?
It uses the bing maps SDK under the hood so it will render in any modern browser, mobile or otherwise should work.
I tired to install the bing maps module, but couldn't get it to run. Why? Well, after successful installation the 'configure' link links on the user account page and not the config page. On the overview configuration page of D7 it doesn't show up and guessing the correct URL to get to the module config page failed.
Unfortunately one cannot see the correct link in the screencast either...
Could you please help me out on this one? Thanks!

Gerrymandering is for deer hunters now. In an ongoing effort to please stakeholders, the FWC has adjusted the hunting zones effective for the 2014-15 season to meet whitetail management goals in the Panhandle and accommodate the various peak rut dates in the southern portion of the state. (See above illustration.)
Expect the DMU's you see in Zone D to begin popping up throughout the state in the coming years. It'll be like a western state's Hunting Unit model before too long. Not sure if this is good or bad, but it has been conceived with plenty of public input, so we'll see.
Next, the daily bag limit for turkey will increase to 2 per day – but the season limit will remain 2. Personally, I like this change. "Accidental" doubles are known to happen, and while I'd hate to shorten my Florida turkey season to one day, sometimes you have to put two in the hand when you get the opportunity.
Finally, bobcats. I suspect the extension of the season to overlap into Spring Gobbler is to aid turkey hunters who have cats stalk into their decoys. You wouldn't believe the hate mail I have received over the years for writing about hunting bobcats. Still, it's a fun sport to bring them to call, and serious turkey hunters need to thin the wildcats from time to time if they expect their flocks to thrive. Plus, they make a great mount.
Here are the new changes as written in FWC's 2014-15 Hunting Regulations:
– Boundary line between hunting zones A and C has been adjusted and affects fall hunting season dates. The line now begins at the Gulf of Mexico and runs northeast through Charlotte Harbor and up the Peace River until it intersects with S.R. 70. The line then becomes S.R. 70, running east until it meets U.S. 441 north of Lake Okeechobee. It then follows U.S. 441 south, where it proceeds around the eastern shore of Lake Okeechobee. The line then turns off U.S. 441 and onto S.R. 80 and runs just a few miles before turning east and becoming County Road 880, running just a few miles before joining back up with U.S. 98/441/S.R. 80/Southern Blvd., where it continues east all the way to the Atlantic Ocean. See page 23 to view updated Hunting Zone A and C map.
– Daily bag limit for turkeys on private property has been increased to two birds statewide (excluding Holmes County). However, the daily limit is still one on WMAs. And, the season limit statewide remains two birds during the fall (all fall hunting seasons combined)
and two birds during the spring.
– Hunting Zone D has been divided into two Deer Management Units, and changes have been made to antler regulations and antlerless deer season (on private lands). North of Interstate 10 in Zone D, all antlered deer must have at least 3 points (1 inch or more in length) on one side OR have an antler with a main beam length of 10 inches or more to be legal to take. South of I-10, all antlered deer must have at least 2 points (1 inch or more in length) on one side to be legal to take. The antlerless deer season in Zone D also has been modified. See the Hunting Seasons and Bag Limits section on page 25 for details.
– Bobcat hunting season on private lands has been extended statewide by a month and now runs Dec. 1 – March 31.
For a full copy of the rules and regs for this season, please click here.
Also, if you're a Facebook user and not done so yet, "Like" FWC's page, HuntFlorida. It is consistently updated by the agency and regularly visited by Florida's sportspeople.

Flying Billboards
On a recent US Airlines flight, the tray tables had advertising forSplenda on them. Maybe it's just me, but seeing something on an airline tray table would not make me buy it. Unless it was an advert for some decent food that you could buy on board - but you know that's never going to happen.
There are also a number of US Carriers now accepting advertising on sick bags. That doesn't bother me, but it would bother me if I was the CEO of the company being associated with vomit.
I think the most innovative advertising approach was European budget airline Easyjet's deal with the photo chain Klick PhotoPoint, where the sick bags doubled as envelopes for film processing, but I would hate to be the film technician who opened an incorrectly-sent bag...
Whilst on the subject of travel, the other thing I noticed was the Alaska Airlines logo. It's certainly striking, and is supposed to represent an Eskimo, but to me it looks more like Tommy Lee Jones with an Afro...

Elevator Stares
The problem with riding in elevators is that everyone always tries to avoid your stare - or is it just my stare they try to avoid? They look down, They look up. They watch the floor progress indicator like it's the most interesting thing they have ever seen. And they don't have any dreaded muzak to avidly listen to, either.
I rebel against all that. You see, I am one of those "elevator talkers". I cannot ride the four floors without speaking to my travelling companion(s), even if it is just the obligatory comment about the weather.
Do they hate me for it? I am sure some do. But I am also sure that some really want to speak but just can't get up enough courage in the two floors before they get off, so I am providing them with a valuable service.
Until the day they put me in a straightjacket, that is...

The big issue is that I always end up with a neck full of hair. Those short, shaved strands end up on my shirt collar, and they itch like crazy. It is immensely annoying. Especially if I have to spend an afternoon in the office like that. Why?
We have the technology to put men on the moon, yet no-one seems to have an invention to stop hair getting down your neck during a haircut! Tissue paper doesn't work. Towels don't work. Those rubber pads draped over your shoulders don't work. Come on! Surely there is an inventor out there somewhere who wants to solve this issue?
Whilst on the subject of hair, this weekend saw a major milestone in my life. I found my first grey hair. On my head? On my chest? No, I mean (cough please) down below, if you get my drift. I have had peppery pez on my head for the longest time. My chest is sprouting a big patch of grey grass. But there? When I saw it I had to sit down and take a deep breath.
It is official. It is all downhill from here. Next, someone will be calling me middle-aged.

Six Word Story
Six Word Story group in Flickr. It's a pool where you post photos where the title is a six word story. For the photo here, the title was "Unread, Her Letter Remained Locked Away". I have posted several other shots to this pool.
Ernest Hemingway was once asked to compose a complete story in six words. His answer, personally felt to be his best prose ever, was"For sale: baby shoes, never used."
Being able to tell an entire story on six words is a difficult but compelling art. Wired magazine recently asked a number of writers to try composing their own six word stories. There were some excellent stories. My favourites include:
Failed SAT. Lost scholarship. Invented rocket.
- William Shatner
Computer, did we bring batteries? Computer?
- Eileen Gunn
Epitaph: He shouldn't have fed it.
- Brian Herbert
Osama's time machine: President Gore concerned.
- Charles Stross
My Big Head
So I started looking for other signs. My glasses don't fit too well any more because the frame has stretched - could that be because of my stretching skull?
I also have a lump or knot on the back of my head - I usually joke that this is just my brains trying to escape, but maybe there is more to it? The lump does not seem to have grown - or does it? I searched WebMD in vain to find out what the lump is, but I couldn't find a thing.
So now I am wondering how long it will be before I have trouble supporting my growing box of grey matter. Will it start to become too heavy for my shoulders? Will I start to look like one of those toy dolls with oversized craniums? Will my brains start spilling out of my ears? No, that's wax, and it's tasty! Will people start staring at me in elevators? No...because they already do that.
So now I am on a noggin-watch. I need to take scale of my scalp daily. I like to think I am becoming cleverer as a result of this growth. (I am sure posts like this serve to prove that point). And no, I'm not just being big-headed about it.

Urban Grain - Ice in the City
Whilst in Central Park last week I came across the Wollman Skating Rink. This is surprising because a) it is one of two rinks in the park, and b) Donald Trump has managed to emblazon his logo all over it. He even has the Trump logo on the Zamboni machines which resurface the ice.
I whiled away 15 minutes watching the skaters, then another 45 minutes watching the Zamboni driver do his stuff. I am no ice skating judge, but I don't think he would have scored too highly in terms of style - he was far too random in his approach to the resurfacing job. Which got me thinking several random thoughts:
- I wonder if his performance review is based upon how well he executes his ice-resurfacing tasks?
- Does driving anti-clockwise invalidate his annual bonus?
- Where do you get training how to drive a giant kettle?

Travel Twists
Blackberry is achievable, but not optimum. The strange thing is that if regular computer keyboards were adapted for thumb-typing, I would be able to work more effectively. I can thumb-type faster than an organgutan. All thanks to opposable thumbs.
Anyway, some things I noticed on my travels:
- Travelators - In an airport, it is always more satisfying to come across a Dunlop rubber travelator rather than a metal one. They give you a spring in your step and make you feel good about the world. Imagine if every pavement were made of the same stuff - the world would be a much happier place
- Taxicabs - why have I never been in a taxi where there wasn't some warning light flashing on the dashboard? Oil Level low, Fuel low, Washer Fluid low or Directional Ability low. In one recent ride as I pulled on my safety belt the driver told me I did not need to wear it. As they say in Scotland, "Aye, right"
- Pavement Portrait Artists - in pretty much every major city you will find a park with a bunch of portrait artists selling their wares and trying to tempt you to pose. My issue is that they advertise their skills with hand-drawn portraits of celebrities. Now forgive me if I am wrong, but I have never seen Madonna or Johnny Depp sitting having a portrait done outside Central Park. Or Orlando Bloom or Penelope Cruz, and definitely not James Dean (unless the tabloids are to be believed).

Pip Pip Away
I met Phil on my first visit to the island in 1996, and have known him since then. What can I say about Phil?
- He looks like George Harrison and sounds like Ringo Starr
- He loves his Vespas and Lambrettas
- He liked to call himself the "Bug Catcher" - something to do with his current job
- He sneezes when he has drank too much (a useful barometer)
- He was always one of the most stylish men on the island (apart from the Speedos)
Good luck Phil on your new adventures in France. Bon Voyage !

Cool or Safe?
- Rain - do I wear shirt and shorts like a carefree caribbean, or full foul-weather rain gear like an ocean-going sailor? The problem with this conundrum is that if I opt for the former I ride faster to try and stop getting wet, which makes the situation worse
- Helmet - half helmet like an Italian Paninaro, or full-face like a proper motorcyclist? If it was a case of money and style no object, then the Reevuwould be the best choice...
- Shoes - sandals like a trendy Greek model or full-on motorcycle boots like a full-on motorcyclist? My preference is barefoot, but the tarmac gets too hot and it is sometimes difficult to put your bike on the stand...

Lurking in the Green
Vitamin Cmixed with Berocca. I follow this up with some Bolthouse Green Goodness - a green fruit smoothie containing lots of good stuff, including Spirulina. Then I go and play squash.
The problem with the Green Goodness is that it tastes so good. Too good, in fact. It makes me think back to that movie from 1973 calledSoylent Green. Could this stuff really made from something more sinister, like the recycled bodies of people who have used government-sponsored euthanasia centers?

The British Olympic Association (BOA) angered Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales on Tuesday by trumpeting an "historic agreement" for Britain to field a united soccer team at next year's London Games after a 52-year absence.
The three home associations, determined to safeguard their own national identities in world soccer, issued a joint statement rejecting what the BOA had hours earlier called a "landmark" announcement.
In it, they repeated a collective opposition to their players joining any Team GB (Great Britain).
"We cannot support nor formally endorse the approach that has been proposed by the Football Association," the joint statement said.
"We have stressed this in communications to them and are disappointed that this has been ignored in the media release," it said. "No discussions took place with any of us, far less historic agreement been reached, prior to the statement from the BOA being released."
The BOA, the national Olympic Committee for Britain and Northern Ireland, had said in its statement that men's and women's soccer teams would be selected and managed by the English FA.
"Players from England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and other territories which fall under the BOA's remit as an NOC [-National Olympic Committee], who meet the approved competitive standard will be eligible for consideration and selection," it added.
A spokesman for the Welsh FA said separately that the BOA statement appeared to be "just a rehashing of old news and bits and pieces" and came "completely out of the blue."
"There is no new agreement signed or any deals reached," Ceri Stennett said. "The status quo remains the same."
The debate over the participation of players from Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland in a British team has simmered since the Games were awarded to London in 2005.
The three countries compete with their own teams at international level, but cannot at the Olympics, where only Britain is represented.
The three associations fear they will lose their independent status within soccer's world governing body FIFA if they allow their players to take part, despite their membership being enshrined in FIFA's statutes.
The BOA said the FA had consulted with the Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland associations to develop the selection criteria and timeline.
"It has been a long, six-year journey to get to this point, with very real considerations from the Home Nations that first had to be recognized, respected and resolved," BOA chief executive Andy Hunt said.
"We absolutely respect the participation of the Home Nations as individual nations at all other football events," he added. "I want to express my appreciation to all four Football Associations for their recognition of just how meaningful it will be for Team GB to compete in football in London 2012."
Scottish FA chief executive Stewart Regan suggested in an interview on the SFA Web site on Monday that the BOA's desire to present a united team might have more to do with selling tickets.
The second round of British ticket sales for London 2012 starts tomorrow, with 1.7 million of the remaining 2.3 million tickets on offer being for the men's and women's soccer tournaments.
Some of those matches will be held in Cardiff and Glasgow, where sales have reportedly been slow given the likely absence of home-grown players.

"I Dream of Jeannie" was about a genie who could grant wishes. Genie Jeannie's iconic costume is now on display in the Smithsonian Institution. As uptight as it sounds, executives and censors decided that Jeannie's navel should not be exposed.

A Bernie Sanders delegate says that the DNC is replacing Bernie supporters with paid seat fillers in order to create a fake image of "unity" as the convention goes into its final day.
In the clip, the delegate says that he got to the convention between 5-6pm and the place was virtually empty but that it suspiciously filled up very quickly.
"Every seat in the house is full – so those seat fillers you guys were hearing about? It's real, they're in here now," states the delegate.
He went on to explain how the seat fillers were people he did not know and hadn't seen at the convention previously.
The man goes on to note how the arrival of the seat fillers coincided with the media narrative that the DNC is now far more unified than when it began and how everyone is applauding and cheering in unity.
"It's because the Bernie people aren't here and the people that are here are getting paid to sit in their seats and clap their hands," he adds, noting that attendees are also being blocked from getting back in if they leave their seat at any point – even to just go to the bathroom.
"My guess is that's because a seat filler is in your seat and the optics of everyone having to shift and stand and move is not something they want to see," says the delegate, adding, "There are people in that hall who are being represented in the media as Bernie Sanders people and they are not – don't believe what you see on TV."
"There are a lot of people here who aren't delegates who are standing and cheering and clapping for somebody that we aren't ready to believe in," he concludes, promising to hold the Democratic establishment accountable.
In another video, a man interviewed by a Bernie delegate admits to being a seat filler for the DNC.
Suspicions that the Democrats were hiring seat-fillers to pad out the audience grew after a posting on Philly Craigslist entitled Actors Needed For National Convention.
Here's DNC's Craigslist ad where they're looking for actors to fill the seats of Bernie supporters. #DemsInPhilly pic.twitter.com/jBYr0cwRFE
— John Binder (@JxhnBinder) July 27, 2016
"We currently have a number of empty seats that will need to be filled as we are currently removing a number of people and need to refill their seats for the remainder of the conference," stated the ad, promising to pay seat fillers $50 each night and advising them they will be "required to "cheer at all times" and "possibly wear some promotional material".
Tons of seats were left empty on Tuesday night after Bernie delegates staged a walk-out.
Onto greener pastures! (literally). SO proud of everyone who walked out of that room tonight! #DNCWalkOut #DemExit pic.twitter.com/PNKFDtLuyH
— Natalie (@Natooshka318) July 27, 2016
"I can't believe my eyes," commented RT's Josh Fox. "I've never seen anything like this. This is the primetime of the Democratic National Convention right after the nomination of Hillary Clinton and this place is emptied out like crazy. I'm stunned."

Fred Wagenaar has been named new head women's soccer coach at LaGrange College, according to Athletic Director Jennifer Claybrook.
Wagenaar has been the head coach for the past nine years at Graceland University in Lamoni, Iowa, where he amassed an overall record of 139-27-19.
"I am thrilled to have Fred lead our talented women's soccer team," Claybrook said. "His experience and proven record of success, both athletically and academically, give us great excitement for the future of our Panther Soccer program."
Wagenaar replaces Jim Robbins, who has joined NCAA Division I Long Island University as head coach.
A member of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics, Graceland won nine Heart of America Athletic Conference championships during Wagenaar's nine years of leadership. The Yellow Jackets appeared in the NAIA national tournament seven times and ranked nationally in the Top 25 eight times.
He has coached nine All-Americans, 51 All-American Scholar Athletes and 54 All-Conference players at Graceland. He was the conference Coach of the Year six times.
"I am excited and honored to have the opportunity to work at LaGrange College," Wagenaar said. "At the heart of LaGrange is its goal of transforming the lives of its students. I believe that athletics, done correctly, can be a powerful tool to aid in that transformation, and is therefore an integral part of a liberal arts college.
"My goal with every new season is to be able to take 20-plus disparate individuals and form them into a cohesive, caring and supportive unit that has a collective will to become excellent in every way. I am very much looking forward to getting started."
Graceland was the no. 1 NAIA women's soccer program in the nation for recognized scholar-athletes in 2012. The women's soccer team received the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) Team Academic Award in 2010 and 2011.
Wagenaar came to Graceland in 2004 as the men's and women's soccer goalkeeper coach. During the 2004 season, the women's goalkeeper earned All-Conference honors, while the men's goalkeeper was the NAIA National Tournament Most Valuable Player in leading Graceland to the national championship.
"We are especially pleased to have someone of Fred's caliber join the Panther coaching staff," said LaGrange College President Dan McAlexander.
"Athletics play a strong part in our mission of preparing students to become successful, responsible citizens who aspire to lives of integrity and moral courage. We are confident that Fred's commitment to the whole student-athlete will help accomplish those aims."
Wagenaar holds a NSCAA National Goalkeeping diploma. He is a certified personal trainer through the American Council on Exercise and supervised the women's soccer program's off-season fitness and weight training.
Wagenaar studied level one and two coaching theory at Mohawk (Canada) College, then level one and two practical levels at Richmond Hill and Brock (Canada) University. He holds a bachelor's degree in education from Graceland, graduating summa cum laude.
He and his wife, Kathy, are the parents of four sons: Mark, Jesse, Ben and Josh.

This week we published IBM Spectrum Scale Deployment on IBM SoftLayer. This IBM® Redpaper™ publication describes various activities that are necessary to deploy IBM Spectrum Scale™ on IBM SoftLayer® . It includes the following topics:
- Sizing and configuration guidance
- Cluster deployment
- Monitoring
- Storage options on SoftLayer
- Network considerations on SoftLayer
There are many factors that must be taken into account when configuring a IBM Spectrum Scale cluster on any hardware. Desired performance, cost, cluster size, and workload can influence any hardware and configuration decisions. The Redpaper provide guidance to help you navigate the many options available when choosing hardware and deploying a cluster.
Many of my non technical friends ask me questions about their smartphones data that their apps say is in the cloud. And then they point to the sky as if the data is really up there. While most of the people on the planet don't need to know how it really works many of us really do need to know to make the best decisions so our friends and clients don't need to know.
The SoftLayer platform webpage has a great summary that clearly states how hardware infrastructure is needed to build a cloud. The Redpaper focuses on how to optimize a Spectrum Scale implementation on SoftLayer.
"Cloud is not a commodity. And no matter what you call it, computing doesn't come out of the sky. It comes from physical hardware inside brick and mortar facilities connected by hundreds of miles of networking cable. And no two clouds are built the same way. SoftLayer gives you the highest performing cloud infrastructure available. One platform that takes data centers around the world that are full of the widest range of cloud computing options, and then integrates and automates everything."
Here is a figure to show SoftLayer's global reach of its hardware infrastructure.

This week, for the first time since it was released in February 2011, Adele's 21 does not rank among the top 10 albums on The Billboard 200. It drops from #8 to #12, ending (at least for now) a 78-week run in the top 10. 21 is one of only five albums to log 78 or more weeks in the top 10 since 1963, when Billboard merged its separate stereo and mono charts into one comprehensive listing. The others are The Sound Of Music soundtrack (109 weeks), Bruce Springsteen's Born In The U.S.A. (84 weeks), Michael Jackson's Thriller (78 weeks) and Def Leppard's Hysteria (78 weeks).
Much has happened in the pop world since 21 was released. Amy Winehouse (whose success paved the way for Adele) died, as did Whitney Houston, Donna Summer, Robin Gibb and Adam Yauch of Beastie Boys. Justin Bieber and Chris Brown both released two #1 albums. One Direction and 2Chainz debuted. Lionel Richie made an improbable comeback. Katy Perry tied Michael Jackson's record for most #1 hits from one album. American Idol crowned two more winners, Scotty McCreery and Phillip Phillips. The Voice debuted and stole some of Idol's thunder. Maroon 5 got its second wind.
21 has sold 9,736,000 copies in the U.S., which makes it the 22nd best-selling album since 1991, when Nielsen SoundScan began tracking sales for Billboard. Among albums released in the past 10 years, it's second only to Usher's Confessions (10,108,000). The four official singles from 21, "Rolling In The Deep," "Someone Like You," "Set Fire To The Rain" and "Rumour Has It," have sold a combined total of 18,593,000 copies. Adele's music video, Live At The Royal Albert Hall, has sold 955K copies.
Adele and Julie Andrews, the star of the aforementioned The Sound Of Music, have a fair amount in common. Both women were born in England. Both achieved tremendous success at a young age. Adele was 22 in February 2011 when 21 became her first #1 album. Andrews was just 20 in July 1956 when the Broadway cast album to My Fair Lady became her first #1 album. In 2000, Andrews was named a Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire. Will Adele one day follow suit? Time will tell, but she's off to a good start.
I'm not sure how Trey Songz is going to react to this week's chart news. His new album, Chapter V, enters The Billboard 200 at #1, becoming his first #1 album. The hitch? The album sold 135K copies, a substantial drop from the 240K opening of his last album, Passion, Pain & Pleasure in September 2010. That album missed out on the #1 spot by just a hair over 1,000 copies (Linkin Park's A Thousand Suns edged it out). This time around, it wasn't even close: Chapter V sold nearly three times as many copies as this week's #2 album.
Songz' sales tally includes 51K digital copies, which puts it at #1 on Top Digital Albums.
This is the second album titled Chapter V to reach #1. A Staind album with that same title debuted at #1 in August 2005. This marks the first time that a recycled album title has reached #1 since Adele's 21 hit the top in February 2011. Omarion had reached #1 with an album by that title in December 2006.
Each of Songz' five albums has climbed higher on the chart than the one before it, a neat trick. His 2005 debut I Gotta Make It reached #20. His 2007 follow-up Trey Day hit #11. Ready reached #3 in 2009. Passion, Pain & Pleasure hit #2 in 2010. And now Chapter V is #1.
DJ Khaled's Kiss The Ring debuts at #4. It's the rapper's fourth top 10 album, following We The Best (#8 in 2008), We Global (#7 in 2008) and We The Best Forever (#5 in 2011). DJ Khaled has more top 10 albums than any other act whose name begins with the phrase "DJ." DJ Clue? is in second place, with two top 10 albums. DJ Quik and D.J. Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince each had one.
Incidentally, between DJ Khaled's showy ring and 2 Chainz' gold chains, there's a lot of bling on the covers of this week's top 10 albums.
Owl City's The Midsummer Station debuts at #7. It's the pop artist's third top 10 album. The album includes "Good Time," his collabo with Carly Rae Jepsen that cracks the top five on this week's Hot Digital Songs chart…Tenth Avenue North's The Struggle debuts at #9. This is the first top 10 album for the Contemporary Christian band. The Light Meets The Dark reached #15 in 2010.
I'm sure you know that last week Taylor Swift's "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" broke a record formerly held by Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" for the largest first-week digital sales for a song by female artist. Swift's song sold 623K in its first week, compared to 448K for "Born This Way." But the saga doesn't end after just one week. Sales of Gaga's song actually increased in Week 2 (jumping by 14%), while sales of Swift's song dropped by 51%. In the first two weeks combined, "Born This Way" sold 957K, compared to 930K for Swift's hit. So Gaga remains ahead if you look at the first two weeks, rather than just the first week. (Both songs trail Flo Rida's "Right Round," which sold a record 1,096,000 copies in its first two weeks.) Will Swift hold on to the top spot on the Hot 100? You'll find out later today when we post Chart Watch: Songs.
Here's the low-down on this week's top 10 albums.
The Top Five: Trey Songz's Chapter V debuts at #1 (135K). This is his third top five album… 2 Chainz' Based On A T.R.U. Story dips from #1 to #2 in its second week (48K)…Now 43 dips from #2 to #3 in its third week (45K)…DJ Khaled's Kiss The Ring debuts at #4 (41K). It's the rapper's fourth top 10 album… Justin Bieber's Believe rebounds from #6 to #5 in its 10th week (32K). It has been in the top 10 the entire time.
The Second Five: Maroon 5's Overexposed dips from #5 to #6 in its ninth week (32K). This is its eighth week in the top 10…Owl City's The Midsummer Station debuts at #7 (30K). It's the pop artist's third top 10 album…Rick Ross' God Forgives, I Don't drops from #3 to #8 in its fourth week (28K).…Tenth Avenue North's The Struggle debuts at #9 (26K). This is the Contemporary Christian band's first top 10 album… One Direction's Up All Night drops from #7 to #10 in its 24th week (25K). This is its 23rd week in the top 10.
Three albums besides Adele's 21 drop out of the top 10 this week. Insane Clown Posse's Mighty Death Pop dives from #4 to #35, Zac Brown Band's Uncaged drops from #9 to #16, Yellowcard's Southern Air plummets from #10 to #76. (Sales of the latter album dove by 79%, from 23K last week to 5K this week. This week, the title should be Gasping For Air.)
Dustin Lynch's debut album Dustin Lynch debuts at #13. It bows at #1 on Top Country Albums. It's the first debut album to enter the country chart at #1 since Scotty McCreery's Clear As Day in October 2011, about four months after he won Season 10 of American Idol. Lynch's "Cowboys And Angels" is just outside the top 10 on Hot Country Songs.
Lynyrd Skynyrd's Last Of A Dyin' Breed debuts at #14. The Southern rock band first cracked the top 20 in October 1974 with Second Helping (the album that included "Sweet Home Alabama"). The band had three top 10 albums from 1975 to 1977…Dispatch's Circles Around The Sun debuts at #24.
The Sparkle soundtrack drops from #21 to #25 in its fourth week. It's #1 on Top Soundtracks for the fourth week. The soundtrack from the original Sparkle was the top-ranking soundtrack for 20 weeks in 1976. Aretha Franklin, who sang the songs in the original movie, and Whitney Houston, who sings two numbers in the reboot, recorded a duet in 1989: "It Isn't, It Wasn't, It Ain't Never Gonna Be." The song peaked at #41 on the Hot 100, a disappointing showing given the name power involved. The song was from Franklin's album Through The Storm.
Bob Marley & the Wailers' 1984 smash Legend drops from #18 to #26 in its 237th week on the chart. This is its 113rd week at #1 on Top Catalog Albums since 1991, when Nielsen SoundScan began tracking sales for Billboard. It's the first time that Legend has spent two consecutive weeks at #1 since January 2008. Legend was released during the Jacksons' Victory Tour; about six weeks before the first VMA Awards were presented on MTV.
Emeli Sande's Our Version Of Events logs its fifth week at #1 on The Official U.K. chart, which ties Adele's 21 for the most weeks on top there so far in 2012. Sande's album is just 6K copies behind 21 as the best-selling album in the U.K. so far this year. It has sold nearly 647K copies since its release in February. 21 has sold 653K so far this year. Our Version Of Events debuted and peaked at #28 on The Billboard 200 in June. It has sold 45K copies in the U.S.
One Direction's Up All Night: The Live Tour is #1 on Top Music Videos for the 13th week. The DVD sold 9K copies this week, bringing its 13-week total to 276K.
The Expendables 2 was #1 at the box-office for the second straight weekend. The original Expendables movie was #1 for two weekends in August 2010.
Coming Attractions: Toby Mac's Eye On It and Slaughterhouse's Welcome To Our House are expected to debut at #1 and #2 next week, in that order. Toby Mac will probably sell around 60K. Slaughterhouse, around 50K. Alanis Morissette's Havoc And Bright Lights will probably debut at #4, with sales in the 35K range. Also due: Circa Survive's Violent Waves, Dwele's Greater Than One.

Sun, rain, snow, sun, snow, hail, rain… In April we have seen our share of crazy weather. Yesterday afternoon I caught this sight of the sun through our trees while I listened to Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 5 in C minor, Op. 10. By the time I started to write this post, it was raining again. And it felt good to sit inside in my warm study and to listen to Beethoven. I believe that even in the darkest hour, Beethoven's sonatas could give me comfort, strength, hope. The music invades my mind and I can't think of little else. When I let go, I can lose myself, drown, be absorbed, melt in it, fuse with it. The incredible lightness of playing piano… Again and again, I am impressed by the world's great pianists, in this case Maurizio Pollini, who has recorded Op. 10 with the label Deutsche Grammophon.
The lightness of piano playing
For several weeks, I have now been practising Bach's Prelude in C major from the Well-Tempered Clavier. For a few days, I have struggled with bars 18 to 24, but the day before yesterday I finally managed to play the whole piece as legato* as my teacher expects me to play it. And it sounded so good, that I lost myself in the piece! The incredible lightness of playing piano… What a magnificent experience, despite the fact that I had to start all over again. And I wonder how many such wonderful moments professional pianists experience during their career. The euphoria of finally mastering something that they considered tricky, difficult, impossible. It must be like reaching the peak of a mountain. But is there a point at which the thrill is gone? When playing piano recitals just becomes a job like any other?
A wild sequence of thoughts
Beethoven wrote the Piano Sonata No. 5 between 1795 and 1797, the piece was published in 1798. It is worthwhile to listen to what contemporary critics had to say about Op. 10. "[Beethoven's] many ideas lead to a wild sequence of thoughts, one heaped on the other, and grouped in a bizarre way which quite often produces an artificial darkness or dark artificiality", wrote the Allgemeine Musikalische Zeitung, edited in Leipzig. It also opined that Beethoven was a master pianist, but a less accomplished composer.
Dark? Artificial? Wild? Bizarre? I can find none of that in Op. 10! De gustibus non est disputandum… Critics and the audience were exposed at their time to a different kind of music, and Beethoven's innovative and daring style struck many. With the benefit of 200 years of hindsight, the audience of today has long made its peace with Beethoven and even with more daring composers like Schönberg, Shostakovich and Ligeti. How about Cage or Rihm? Glass and Adès? Birtwistle and Saariaho? Weird stuff? What will the audience say in 50 years? Will it have made its peace with those composers too? I bet it will. And it will lose itself in Boulez piano pieces like I lose myself today in Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 5 and Bach's Prelude.
