Newly Formed Malian Unity Government Excluded Islamists
An official of Mali's interim government said radical Islamists who are in control of the country's north have no place in a new national unity government.
The government, announced Monday, comprises 31 ministers, including five believed to be supporters of former coup leader Captain Amadou Sanogo. It replaces a transitional government created in April that was plagued by infighting.
Hamadoune Toure, Mali's Minister for Communication and government spokesman, said all ministers of the new government had to subscribe to maintaining the territorial integrity of Mali and no Islamic values or Sharia law as the norm of government.
Toure said part of the new government's mandate would be to liberate northern Mali from hardline Islamists. The new government replaces a transitional government created in April that was plagued by infighting.
"For a long time, we are asked to establish a government of national union to mobilize all political forces and civil society so that we can go for the north to re-establish our territorial integrity. So, the government was formed today (Monday), and it has to work on two aspects. The first one is the recuperation of the territorial integrity and the second aspect is to organize elections," he said.
Toure downplayed suggestions that the new unity government included five members believed to be supporters of recent coup leader Captain Amadou Sanogo saying the ministers are chosen to work for the Malian government and people and not for an individual.
"Well, I don't know how close they are to Captain Sanogo. If you are a minister, you work for the government and if you work for the government you work for the country. So, they are here to work for Mali, not for someone," Toure said.
The Islamists in northern Mali have said they want to impose Sharia law, but Toure said hardline Islamists would not be welcome into the new unity government.VOA

Why Yahoo! Was Live Streaming Taylor Swift
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Yahoo! (YHOO) tried to appeal to Swifties -- the teenage (and older) army of rabid Taylor Swift fans -- by hosting a live stream event on Monday of Switft introducing her latest single. Sunnyvale, Calif.-based Yahoo! is tiptoeing into original Web content creation and this is just the latest tier in its plan. If successful, this would give Yahoo!'s topline a boost after a series of hits and misses (Tumblr, a blogging platform Yahoo! paid $1.1 billion for, has yet to see significant revenue from advertising).
"The fastest-growing part of the Internet in terms of advertising volume is online video," Brad Adgate, research director at Horizon Media, told TheStreet. "As dollars continue to migrate to online video, you want to have a place at the table."
Digital video ad spending will total $12.27 billion by 2018, according to eMarketer estimates, with the industry growing at 41% this year alone. No wonder Yahoo! wants in.
Read More: Live Concerts Would Lift Yahoo!'s Video StrategyThe problem is this elevator, though still on the ground floor of its growth potential, has already reached maximum capacity. Netflix (NFLX) dominates the online streaming space with Hulu nipping at its heels. Amazon (AMZN) has elbowed its way in with its own original content (though its programming success is a blip compared to Netflix's). To compete, Yahoo!'s strategy is to adopt broadcasters' game plan -- to focus on the spectacle of the live event, appealing to the cord-cutters' mentality but also eliciting the must-watch-now, can't-miss anticipation broadcast television once represented. Traditional channels are attempting to recapture this spark, too. Comcast's (CMCSA) NBC is chasing the theater crowd with live productions such as Sound of Music over Christmas last year and a Peter Pan revival this December. Meanwhile, Disney's (DIS) ESPN has been strengthening its grip on live sports to cater to the fringe sports fanatics. Read More: Google, Facebook Battle Over Exploding Online Video Ad Revenue Yahoo! plans to claim its stake on music fans, demonstrated in its recent deal with concert organizer Live Nation (LYV) , a partnership promising to premiere a new, live concert from performers like Swift each day via Yahoo! Screen (Kiss has already performed while Justin Timberlake will later this month). Yahoo! Screen, launched in 2011, has long featured content from other providers -- Buzzfeed, The Onion, Comedy Central -- but is becoming more populated with exclusive content (Community, a cancelled NBC series, will air its sixth season this fall thanks to Yahoo!'s backing). "In some ways if you're going to be late to the game, it's akin to in team sports signing a free agent all-star in order to get up to speed quickly," David Hallerman, analyst at eMarketer, told TheStreet on Yahoo's content strategy. Yahoo! has yet to respond to requests for metrics, though, as The New York Times points out, Taylor Swift quickly became a trending topic on Twitter (TWTR) and has remained there through to midmorning Tuesday. -- Written by Keris Alison Lahiff in New York.

Record and controversies
Iraq War
Graves voted for the Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002 that started the Iraq War.[1]
Environmental record
For more information on environmental legislation, see the Energy and Environment Policy Portal
Air travel restrictions
On May 2 2007, the House voted by voice vote on H.R.363 to remove airplane travel restrictions. The measure was sponsored by Rep. Graves and Rep. Collin Peterson (D-Minn.). The new rules allow members to fly in a friend's airplane for free. The rules change also provides that members who are certified pilots may again fly their own aircraft.
Graves was born November 7, 1963, in Tarkio, Missouri. He graduated from the University of Missouri and was elected to the Missouri House of Representatives in 1992, and to the Missouri State Senate in 1994.
Congressional career
In 2000, Congresswoman Pat Danner suddenly retired due to breast cancer. Graves decided to run for her seat, facing Congresswoman Danner's son, Steve Danner, a fellow state lawmaker, in the general election. Graves referred to Danner as a "tax and spend Liberal" and won the race with 51% of the vote [1]. Graves easily won re-election in 2002 [2] and 2004 [3].
Because Missouri's 6th District has changed between Democratic and Republican control several times, elections in the district tend to be closely contested. As a result, candidates in the district often receive large conributions from their national parties and party leaders. Graves received a total of $35,000 from former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay's ARMPAC [4]. Grave's Democratic opponents have criticized him for this connection [5].
2006 elections
In 2006, the Democrats nominated Sara Jo Shettles to face Graves in his November 2006 bid for reelection. (See U.S. congressional elections in 2006) [6] Graves retained his seat.

By having taken over the CIGS innovation line from Würth Solar GmbH & Co. KG, Manz is not only the sole supplier able to offer an integrated and fully-productive production line for CIGS thin-film modules that can be operated economically, but also the only supplier worldwide that has a team of 118 CIGS experts at its disposal.
Thus, Manz is able to drive CIGS research and development ahead more rapidly than to date, thereby ensuring highly efficient CIGS modules and maximum return on investment for customers. Manz offers CIGS production lines for thin-film modules with the highest degree of efficiency at 14.6 percent (aperture efficiency of 15.9 percent).
With these CIGS solar panels Manz achieved a technological breakthrough: As a result the cost of solar power is now at similar level as electricity from fossil power plants and is significantly less expensive than electricity from offshore wind parks.

I have had a lot of success buying things at thrift stores, secondhand stores, and consignment shops. Here are just a few examples of things I've found.
When I think about it, a pineapple is one of the weirdest things I've ever seen. Compared to most fruits, they're just bizarre looking. And apparently this pit bull agrees with me.
I do my long runs on weekends during daylight hours. If I want to run during the week, I have to run in the dark.
Whenever I see a typical gift idea list, I have two immediate frustrations.
Somewhere in the Arabian Gulf lies the shattered remains of a speedboat and a drone aircraft. Equipment destroyed during demonstrations of the Navy's newest laser weapons system.
Here are a few things I'll do differently during my next race.
I have officially reached the halfway point. After three months of training, I can now run 7 miles. With about three months until the GRU Augusta Half Marathon, I just need to double my distance. Ugh!
It's a pretty common story. You have some debt. Maybe a big mortgage. You have a good job, but you want more. So you put some stuff on a credit card. You panic, but pay off enough debt that the crisis is averted. Then it happens again.
As proof that almost anything can be made more interesting when you stick a GoPro on it, we present a bald eagle flying with a GoPro at an NFL game.
My big toes don't like it when I run long distances. Neither do I.

New: SuperTuxKart Portable 0.7 (multiplayer kart racing) Released
Submitted by Simeon on February 15, 2011 - 10:50pm
SuperTuxKart Portable 0.7 has been released. SuperTuxKart is a Free 3d kart racing game. It's more about being fun than being realistic. You can play with up to 4 friends on one PC, racing against each other or just try to beat the computer. It's packaged in PortableApps.com Format so it can easily integrate with the PortableApps.com Suite. And it's open source and completely free.
PortableApps.com Platform 2.0 Beta 5 users who already have this app installed, simply click 'Check for Updates' in your PA.c Menu to update to the new version.
See the great lighthouse or drive through the sand and visit the pyramids. Race under water or in space, watching the stars passing by. Have some rest under the palms on the beach (watching the other karts overtaking you :) ). But don't fall into the volcano. You can do a single race against other karts, compete in one of several Grand Prix, or try to beat the high score in time trials on your own.
Learn more about SuperTuxKart...
PortableApps.com Installer / PortableApps.com Format
SuperTuxKart Portable is packaged in a PortableApps.com Installer so it will automatically detect an existing PortableApps.com installation when your drive is plugged in. It supports upgrades by installing right over an existing copy, preserving all settings. And it's in PortableApps.com Format, so it automatically works with the PortableApps.com Suite including the Menu and Backup Utility.
SuperTuxKart Portable is available for immediate download from the SuperTuxKart Portable homepage. Get it today!

I have been waiting for this game to become portable for ages. But, one problem. The game is called SuperTuxKart, not SuperTuxCart.
Fixed in all locations and old URLs are redirected. Thanks.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
One More to Fix
The tooltip on the download button is still 'Cart'
I used to have a sig...until one of the mods ate it
title says mutiplayer instead of multiplayer
cheers for the release!
Now we just need Secret Maryo Chronicles...
SuperTuxKart - Files
I just installed it on my Kingston 16GB flash drive. The game is a lot of fun and the playability is wonderful. However, it doesn't matter if I get this running on a AMD Athlon II M300 processor @2Ghz or one intel Core 2 Duo T7200 @the same clock speed, I get missing files from the flash drive while playing it i.e. while running the game the tires image suddenly turns in black,the banana image is dark, I get to see the kart being drawing but I get no image of the driver, etc.
I'm not sure this is an issue from the app itself because so far, I did not see any complaints regarding this problem, I will keep digging this up until I get a solution and if I do so, I'll share it with you.
Flash drive Defrag
FYI, Flash drive defragment brings little advantage and will shorten the lifespan of your Flash drive.
slow drive?
I havent seen this behaviour before. Maybe your drive is slow and it cant load the images? But that would be weird as it could load them into RAM on startup. If you find out more, please post in the Other Apps Forum as thats a better place for bugs and other weirdness than as a comment on a news thread.

First, I guess you need to know something about them, "The beautiful ones. The flawless four. Everyone wanted to be them. You know 'em". They went to your school, too. First there's Courtney "Satan-in-heels" Shayne (McGowan) and her pawn, the dense but dangerous Marcie Fox (Benz), a legend in her own little mind. Then there's angelic Julie Freedman (Gayheart), doomed to be popular because of her pretty face, and lastly, the teen dream herself, Elizabeth Purr. When an ordinary kidnapping prank leaves the future prom queen dead (accidentally gagged with a jaw-breaker), a deadly sweet prank leads to cover-up makeover in this edgy and unpredictable comedy. But there will be no mercy as prom night arrives, bringing this spirited tale to its cruel tiara-dropping conclusion.
Death totally bites in this dark comedy about the skin deep beauty of the high school "in" crowd. Special appearances by Pam Grier, Carol Kane and Marilyn Manson.

I think it's about time for LJ to cover companies that claim to support Linux with their products, but fail to deliver. InterVideo (www.intervideo.com) claims to have ported their windvd player to Linux, but their web site keeps telling us this:
LinDVD, InterVideo's Linux software DVD player, is currently available only to manufacturers for evaluation and integration. Linux users should be aware that we are engaged with top computer, Internet appliance, and set-top box manufacturers to provide the highest quality DVD playback for their devices.
Cyberlink claims to have ported PowerDVD. Status: same as above.
Bioware keeps telling paying Neverwinter Nights customers that the Linux client will come, but every week the reason why it doesn't come yet is a different one. Last week, the coders were on vacation; this week we can't get status updates because "the PR people will all be at Gen Con."

Congratulations on your 100th issue! Linux Journal has been for years one of the critically important elements in the value-net that surrounds the Linux development community and is one of the reasons why Linux has become the fastest-growing operating system for platforms ranging from wristwatches to supercomputers. I'm looking forward to the next 100 issues. Keep up the good work!
—Daniel Frye, IBM Linux Technology Center
Thank you for all the calendars! I am extremely impressed with what you have managed to put together from my renderings and proud to hand the calendars out to my friends. I have already been contacted by an American company who had found my web site via the calendar, and they offered me a gig!

Loved the article on the Ultimate Linux Box [LJ, September 2002]. Just one complaint—no prices anywhere. It would have been great to see what you paid, even if that was super-secret pricing.
PC component prices in effect when we write something are usually insanely high by the time you get your LJ. Anybody got a model for predicting them?
I'm glad to see issue 100 out. LJ has been a great source of inspiration to many of us all along. You'll keep my subscription for as long as you don't replace the true Linux/Open Source spirit with advertising from Microsoft and, to add insult to injury, come up with some cynical "justification".
—Renato Carrara
You used 8 Maxtor drives in the "Ultimate Linux Box" [LJ, September 2002] to get 1TB of storage. Now, if these are 120GB drives, 8 of them adds up to almost 1TB, but not if you use RAID-5, because you need to use at least one disk for parity partition, so you are down to 7.
We used 160GB drives and should have said so in the article.
"How a Poor Contract Sunk an Open-Source Deal" [LJ, August 2002] is simply wrong. It should be "Sank", of course.
—Jacob E. Goodman
There is another system for checking for memory overruns and leaks that was not mentioned in Cal Erickson's "Memory Leak Detection in Embedded Systems" [LJ, September 2002]. The bounds checking patches for GCC can check local and static variables in C modules, which makes it much more powerful than a malloc debug library. Check the GCC Extensions page at gcc.gnu.org/extensions.html.
—William Bader
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

What kind of hotel person are you? Are you a Marriott kind of guy/gal or would you prefer a B&B? I am a 'boutique hotel person'. If I can choose, I choose a hotel that is small (less than 20 rooms), historical, in a stunning setting, and family-run. I like the intimacy that usually goes along with the boutique hotel stay. You just can't get that personal touch at the big chain hotels.
Mas Collet, however, has done a pretty good job of fusing boutique hotel and chain hotel. Part of the larger hotel group LHH, some of what this luxury boutique hotel offers is straight out of a box. Example: the breakfast….the most important meal of the day! In a posh hotel like Mas Collet one expects lavish breakfast offerings of ham, fruit plates, gourmet cheeses, espresso, muffins, cakes, omelets to order, freshly squeezed juices, and an ice sculpture in the center of it all (ok, maybe not).
Instead I was greeted in the morning by mini boxed Kelloggs and some limp looking fruit. What?! The view from the breakfast room may go on for miles across pines and mountains, but when the food is fair, one somehow feels uncomfortable and unbalanced. Food is very important to me, and in a place like Catalonia, bringing in locally delicious products should not be an issue.
Mas Collet excels in other areas of the hotel. It is as is they spent their budget on decoration, and then had nothing left to hire quality staff and buy proper breakfast foods. The rooms and suites at Mas Collet are enormous, beautiful, well-appointed, and fabulous in every way. Some have views, and each one follows the same elegant general plan, while at the same time being slightly different. My room looked out over the valley and had an ample deck where morning coffee could be had. Too bad someone had left the hose out on the patio, otherwise it was perfect. Priorat wine and a snack awaited me upon arrival which made me very happy. I just love snacks, who doesn't?
The pool at Mas Collet is also top-notch. Large and private, it sits on a sort of ledge looking out onto the mountains. Mas Collet is nothing if not secluded and quiet. The setting really is quite superb. Want to get away from it all? Go here. And this is the problem I have with Mas Collet. How can it be so wonderful aesthetically, and then drop the ball in other areas? It's a shame. If LHH would look into improving the Mas Collet breakfast and hiring competent help (or at least trained in hospitality) then Mas Collet would be a real winner combining the perfect Priorat setting, boutique intimacy, and elegant luxury. Despite the lame breakfast and spaced staff, I still recommend this hotel if you're cellar hopping in Priorat and Montsant.

ô 05/07/13 The 9th year of the Plymouth Farmersã Market (PFM) opens Saturday, May 11, traditionally the day before Motherãs Day and continuing through October 10. Bring your shopping bag and reconnect with old friends under the magnolia tree.
Musical entertainment has been planned for each week. It kicks off with Jodie Kallenberg directing the Plymouth Community Youth Orchestra at 9:30, a warm-up for their upcoming annual spring concert. Local favorites will be returning with Jefferson and Webster Schools under the direction of Bob Pickell as well as Mike Linter, Sentimental Journey and the Marshall County Church Orchestra. New is Randy Jonesã ãHuckleberry Clamshellã group and Marcie Prochaska playing dulcimer.
Despite drought conditions last year, Market Manager Tom Keb reported an average of over 30 vendors throughout the season. Regulars will be on hand opening day, including Janice Hurford of Sunny Acres Farm, whoãs been faithful to the Market since Day One. She will be featuring mixed salad greensãspinach, arugula, Chinese cabbage, red kale, tatsoi and mizuna. The latter two Asian greens wonãt be found in stores but their interesting leaves add to an attractive salad.ô With the help of ô her high tunnel, financed through a grant from USDA, she has been growing throughout the winter months. After visiting other tunnels, she decided to take the plunge admitting she has a lot to learn but finding it a ãgreat challengeã. She was able to sell spinach all winter from just one row but she hasnãt stopped growing outdoorsãgreen onions will be available but those wanting radishes will have to wait.
Education continues to be a big player in the scenario in with Master Gardeners assumingô a big role. Opening day will feature ãTreat Your Tree This Yearã to fend off insect invaders. May 18 visitors will learn how to plant a rain garden.
The Market is held Saturdays from 7:30 to 11:30 a.m. in River Park Square at Garro and River Streets, east of Michigan. The area is now officially a city park under the management of the Plymouth Parks Department. The last day for the Market is Oct. 12, the second Saturday of the month.
Applications for vendors and not-for-profits are available on the website at www.plymouthfarmersmarket.com or by contacting Tom Keb, Market Manager, 10499 Tyler Road, Bremen, IN 46506 (574-217-5776). Booth space for vendors remains at $10 per week per booth. Not-for-profit booths are free but groups are limited to once a month.

OpenOffice issued a WMF/EMF code execution fix
January 4th, 2007 by Juha-Matti, Filed under: Commentary, Corporate Security, Linux, Web
It appears that new OpenOffice.org security update has been released.
Red Hat adivsory is located here (rated as Important):
And what the RHSA-2007:0001-3 states:
Several integer overflow bugs were found in the OpenOffice.org WMF file
processor. An attacker could create a carefully crafted WMF file that could
cause OpenOffice.org to execute arbitrary code when the file was opened by
a victim. (CVE-2006-5870)
CVE link listed is not accessible yet.
Update: Link to the CVE.
More details available via Bugzilla Bug 217347 (CVE-2006-5870 WMF heap overflow) opened in November. Related OpenOffice Issue 70042 document opened on 2nd Oct is located at www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=70042.
Both 1.1.x and 2.x versions are affected and this patch should be obtained.
These vulnerabilities are reported in OpenOffice prior to version 2.1.0.
The previous remarkable 'OOo' update was released in June.
It is not known if the critical .DOC issue, CVE-2006-6561 (so-called 12122006-djtest.doc issue) was fixed now. I believe that the answer is No.
Update: StarOffice versions 6, 7 and 8 are affected too. Link to the short advisory of NGSSoftware:

WASHINGTON, February 29, 2012 — With a string of hits like Last Train to Clarksville, Mary Mary, I'm Not Your Steppin' Stone, I'm a Believer and Pleasant Valley Sunday among the more than forty singles and nearly forty albums and compilation albums, the Monkees were very much a part of the tail end of the Baby Boomer generation.
And the girls, at least a lot of them, had a huge crush on the oh-so cute Englishman, Davy Jones. With his thick brown hair, sparkling brown eyes, and delightfully playful swagger many a teen-age girl found him hard to resist.
According to Wikipedia Gene Roddenberry modeled Mr. Chekov of Star Trek fame after Davy "in response to the popularity of Davy Jones, complete with hairstyle and appearance mimicking that of Jones."
His records could be found in the record collections of girls all over the world; and he was the first love for many of the girls on our street.
And now he is gone. Davy Jones has died at the age of 66, from a heart attack.
In the group Davy was the one we wanted to bring home to meet mom and dad. Mike was too aloof, Mickey too dangerous (he is a drummer after all) and Peter was too nerdy.
Davy was just right.
And when he sang, whether on the stage, the radio, record album or their weekly eponymous TV half-hour show, he sang to me. At least we all believed that.
Our older sisters followed the Beatles, and the artsy folk singers who were just not fun enough. The rock n' roll stars like the Rolling Stones, Jefferson Starship and Jimmy Hendrix were all too dangerous with their aura of drugs and sex; for the younger set, The Monkees were perfect.
And we did not care that they would not let them play their own instruments on their TV show; they were carefree, adorable and playful. Each of them.
But Davy was the very cute and cuddly Monkee. I do not know if he would mind that we thought he was cuddly; as a ten year old girl in 1968 that was the extent of my lust.
Davy Jones did sing with his own voice, you should know. Wearing tight bell bottomed hip-huggers, white shoes and often a Nehru jacket; he was the perfect boyfriend for a tween.
Unfortunately, while The Monkees were "brothers" then, time and age had soured their relationships. In 2009 he took a shot at his band mates in Digital Spy. They have not toured together since 1997. For a 45thAnnniversary tour, however, the guys stepped out in May 2011, sans Mike Nesmith. The tour was cancelled in October of that same year due to "internal conflicts."
The Monkees still have many fans. Unfortunately they won't see the group inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame anytime soon. Jann Wenner of the museum has famously snubbed The Monkees as inductees because "they did not play their own musical instruments in the show."
Wenner is wrong to hold that against them. Not only did they tour to sold out venues, their records were constantly on the Top 40 charts as well as earning gold and platinum albums.
According to Psycho-Jello "I'm a Believer" was the 5th biggest song of the 60s, Billboard magazine says The Monkees are #27 on the Top Artists of the Rock Era meaning they beat out people like The Eagles, Madonna, Pink Floyd, Neil Diamond, and Bruce Springsteen, and they are also the #8 biggest selling band/artist of the 60s.
With Davy Jones' sudden passing we are reminded just how much joy and play this band of merry men brought to throngs of young girls, and boys in the late 60's and, as we still wistfully listen to their songs, today.
After a moment of silence and as my favorite song, Daydream Believer, floats through my memory, I am going to go find three compadres to "Monkee-walk" with me as we shout "Hey, Hey we're the Monkees, and people say we monkey around; But we're too busy singing, To put anybody down."
I hope that those remaining, Mickey, Peter and Mike, are able to remember some of the fun they brought to my life, and the lives of so many, and come together to bid their mate goodbye.
Rest in peace, Davy Jones. And thank you.

Icon A5, the sporty amphibious plane for the rest of us
A former Air Force F15 pilot rolled out this personal aircraft yesterday, and he's calling it Icon A5. The $139,000 plane can take off and land on water or dry land, and has controls that are more like a car than an airplane. Fold up its wings, and you can tow it behind your car. Expected to go on sale in 2010, its 32-foot wingspan makes it a relatively small plane, but it's still not the smallest one we've seen.
Icon A5 fits right into the FAA's new Light Sport Aircraft category, restricted to flying in daylight under 10,000 feet with a top speed of 140mph. It must be easy to pilot the thing, because you can get the Sport Pilot License required to fly it with about 20 hours of flight training.
Flying in this little pocket rocket got you scared? Not to worry — it's a whole lot safer than a personal helicopter — if you make a flying mistake, this beautifully designed plane has its own built-in parachute.

Up and down the country, in the UK at least, parents will be receiving tearful telephone calls from their children that they happily packed off to university just two months ago. I know because we have had that phone call. This can be very alarming not only that one's child is not having the best time but also the concern, that they may drop out. After all those schooling years of tears and effort - and let's be frank the money, our investment in our children's education seems precariously poised to fail. However, after that telephone conversation, I consoled myself and my wife that we were probably not in the minority but rather, we were the majority.
Twenty years ago, I was a junior research assistant to the psychologist Shirley Fisher, who had made a career of studying stress at work. She had noted that many students were unhappy during their first term at Dundee University in Scotland were she was based. Moreover, the UK Economic and Social Research Council were concerned at the number of post-graduate students receiving grants who were dropping out of university. So we conducted a series of studies of first year students coming from around the country to attend university and nursing colleges. Although university is hardly a stressful workplace, for many young adults it represents a milestone of leaving home and stepping out in the big wide world alone. Could we predict how they would cope and who would falter?

Times are strange for being a musician. Then again, times are always strange for musicians. Record labels are disintegrating and more DIY independent projects and distributors are arising in an already very expensive business to be in. Being a musician myself, I know that this job isn't exactly a recipe for big money earning; but, after reading this infographic, things seem even more positively frakked for artists.
Looking at the numbers, it seems to me that the system just doesn't give respect to the value that the musicians and producers themselves have put into their products. Don't get me wrong, I love streaming sites–honestly, they're the future–but I feel like this is a bridge too far. If this system of retail is going to continue, Spotify, Napster, and iTunes better straighten themselves out if they want more artists selling their creations on their platform.
I was curious as to how Google Play factored into this scenario, and as far as this video is concerned, it seems to be a much more appealing business model for artists. But then again, I'm not sure if they're just talking the talk.
What do you think? Is the streaming market just another brick in the wall of the record label legacy of sitting on top of the little guy? Or do you think this is an overreaction, and that something should be done on the artist's part in order to make their 'business' more viable?
Share This Infographic
the sad thing is, ascap and bmi have no power to get these new online ripoffs to pay real royalties, since their rules go back to old radio days.
well. that's mostly cause there is no really a "normal" reporting that matches broadcaster's.
I'd just like to point out that all of the streaming options amount to the equivalent of at most a couple of plays a week on a single major radio station. The radio station pays nothing to the performers for this, yet performers are only complaining about streaming services, not radio airplay. Why?
Radio does pay something. And radio play is considered advertising; exposing the song to many people who wouldn't otherwise hear it. That's quite different from one person streaming a specific song just for himself.
What about streaming services like Pandora? I've discovered some good stuff that way that I wouldn't have heard otherwise.
Radio would be a better option for exposure. When people listen to songs on sites like pandora or grooveshark, its the individual who listens to the song and they also have the option to not listen to it. Whereas, when people listen to a song on radio, they don't have the option to choose. What is broadcasted on radio is fixed and there is better chances of exposure to a lot more people.
Besides people may never find your song on streaming sites like pandora. Whereas, if your song is played on radio, everybody tuned onto that radio station will hear your song.
homework: look up ASCAP.
I left homework at school. Lol
how much to you get from the radio? 0. be happy you get a piece of the streamers at all.
Mike V
They don't get paid to be on radio, radio is just free publicity.
Not true at all.
Rohan Adarkar
you're totally incorrect here. airplay is a massive revenue stream.
record sales as a percentage of all revenue is on the decline. the real money is in publishing, merchandise and touring. endorsement deals and ancillary avenues are also viable.
i would almost say it's worth giving your record away as your free publicity and focus on monetizing the rest.
I agree. its better to give away some songs to gain publicity and then sell when you are established.
Radio is not free. Radio stations pay large amounts for frequency and bandwith to be used for their radio. How do you expect them to offer their service to artists for free.
There are some small scale radio stations that offer service for free but that's because some person is running them for hobby and the cost is small for their small private radio station and is within their affordable budget.
another one of those. are you all under 12?!
look up ASCAP.
Way to post an outdated graph from Apr 2010…I'm sure those numbers have changed especially since spotify didn't launch in the u.s. until a year after this graph was made…
Gary Deezy
Sorry to burst your bubble, but its not just musicians. I used to be in the software biz, then the music biz, now the book publishing biz. Same deal hits all of us in the creativity fields: the top 5% make 95% of the money.
If you're in the music biz primarily for the money, you're in the wrong career field.
David Budaghyan
I totally agree with you.
I think it has always been the case for any artist or musician. It is just that nowadays the industry has become too oversized for the market to handle it.
The industry revenues suddenly got very high for some period. After that more and more people entered the industry which is forcing the prices to go down.
"the industry has become too oversized for the market to handle it"
What does that statement mean?!
David Budaghyan
I mean the supply of the product(in this case music) is so big, that it drives the price down to zero and the majority of musicians are losing profits.
gregory gomes
Yes, because it's a competitive market. The music industry is an oligopoly, run by record labels and distributors who maintain that what's "buzzin' the attention", gets even more face time- and thus increasing profits for those people involved in the sales.
Is it true that touring and show money can feed a family of 5?

Cry me a river. How much per reader do bloggers get for their articles? Plumbers don't complain about not getting paid each time somebody takes a dump in a toilet they installed. . .
A plumber isn't creating anything, they are being paid to install something. If that plumber created a toilet, I bet he'd want to be paid for each toilet sold, right? I think musicians need to have more control over how their ART is sold, they are the ones putting their blood, sweat and tears into it just to have some suit telling them what to do with it.
deep thoughts. by a plumber.
This isn't accurate at all.

Here's the point, and the reason why I do not feel sorry for musicians, even though I am one myself. The primary reason why musicians were incredibly frightened by the invention and acclimation of iTunes (many years ago now) and these new digital formats, is because they could not longer sell a $15 album with 2 good songs and 10 pathetic songs hardly worth listening to. Now, people can pick and choose, as they should be able to do. Therefore, the solution is simple: if you want to be a successful musician or band, then be excellent at what you do. Make music that people can't stop listening to. They'll download your music, possibly even entire albums; they'll stream your music; they will "word of mouth" your music like crazy; they will attend concerts; they will buy everything you put on the market if you make good music. You can't make mediocre music and expect people to jump at the opportunity to spend hard earned money on it.

I agree. The only downside is that I feel bad for those artists who do put months and months of work into creating a collection of songs that create a great body of work but there are fans who wont hear the full project because they can pick and choose separate tracks from the project and may end up missing great songs.
No. Its true that a lot of albums contain one or two good songs and the rest of them crap. This is not me saying. The entire world knows it and talks about it and complain and laugh about it. That's the reason why lots of people, me included stopped buying an album of a single artist and instead started buying mixed albums like top charts, etc which are collection of songs of different artists. Ok. I agree that people will like or dislike a song depending on his individual taste but when the majority of the society says its bad, it has to be bad. When it comes to purchasing, everything depends on the consumer's taste, not the businessmen's taste.
That's not to say that all the albums are like that. There are a few good albums that contain mostly good songs and when people find such albums, they are happy to pay for it.
your first problem is that you are a musician. the second one – as a musician – is that you are not really the authorita on what consists "pathetic songs hardly worth listening to". i'm not going to look up your "excellent" body of art (i bet you are excellent in what you do and you totally make music that people can't stop listening to) but i bet you and i have a very different definition of what are "pathetic songs hardly worth listening to". people who work hard on their albums never think of it as one songs. hence "an album". most of the time the songs on the album of really good musicians – even of it's not a "concept" album – relate to each other. usually it's pretty obvious. if you can hear it.
i hope you get your "word of mouth". like crazy.

"If this system of retail is going to continue, Spotify, Napster, and
iTunes better straighten themselves out if they want more artists
selling their creations on their platform."
That's funny, considering that streaming is pretty much their only option. This isn't an ultimatum for streaming services, it should be a request, and considering they don't actually turn a profit, it's a bad one to make. Artists must renegotiate their contracts, perhaps not through record companies anymore (since there's no point). Understanding how it works is generally a good idea before making demands that make no sense.
Probably the most important thing that artists should remember is that without streaming services their music would just be pirated, leaving them with nothing. They owe a massive 'thank you' to Spotify, Napster, iTunes, Rdio, Deezer, Grooveshark, Torch music, and ever other streaming service that pays them out at all.

"Probably the most important thing that artists should remember is that

That is a HUGE assumption, and very likely a wrong one.

How is she wrong? Pirating is essentially what crushed the record industry in the first place, which streaming essentially saved. Do you think without streaming people are going to go back to paying $15 for a CD? Or do you think they'll go back to taking it for free?
there are many reasons why she is wrong. and only one of them is the fact that she works for one of those services…
without streaming service people are going back to pay whatever they have to if they want to get the recording. but that's irrelevant since it isn't happening.
the problem with the commercial streaming services begun with itunes and selling songs not records. when you chop an album down to songs then you would only sell (hopefully) the "hit" and not the album. selling albums already wasn't producing much for "the artist" anyway – you'd just get 0.07 "points" per album (or whatever "points" says on your contract). now you'd get a tiny fraction of that.
there are a lot of other problems related to the how music is bought and sold via the awesome "streaming services" but not all of them are originated with those. and no, no musician owes a "massive thank you" to them like she states up here.
if you would like to get some money being a musician – learn to play an instrument and play live as much as possible. that's always been the real income for musicians. ask any successful band. the sadder option is to create a few hissing and clicking beats/sounds and put them on tumblr and a number of all those things enumerated up there and wait for the nickels to trickle in. and pursue a parallel career in bartending.
it's a long way to the top if you wanna rock and roll… and that was in the 70′s…
That's why musicians tour. THAT'S WHERE THEY MAKE THE MONEY. Record labels make money on record sales. Musicians make money on playing live.

The music industry is saturated with less quality. The movie industry will always be quality. You can't really earn a fixed salary is a musician. There's too many ways to make and lose money in that industry, which is why nobody but the top 5% or 10% artists/producers/bands are actually eating from it.

Genesis 2, Adam and Eve, and Authority
Genesis 2 sometimes comes up when examining the issue of women pastors and elders. This is because the 1 Tim. 2:12-13 says,
- "But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet. 13 For it was Adam who was first created, and then Eve." The issue of authority is tied to Adam being created first; therefore, it is not merely a culturally related teaching. In support of their position, the egalitarians (those who say that women can be pastors and elders) deny that Adam had any authority over Eve at all. They deny this because if he did, then it would work against their position that males and females in the church are completely equal in roles since Paul relates the authority issue to Adam. Is their claim correct that Adam was not over Eve? Let's take a look at the text in question.
- "Then the Lord God took the man and put him into the garden of Eden to cultivate it and keep it. 16 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, "From any tree of the garden you may eat freely; 17 but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat from it you shall surely die. 18 Then the Lord God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him. 19 And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them; and whatever the man called a living creature, that was its name. 20 And the man gave names to all the cattle, and to the birds of the sky, and to every beast of the field, but for Adam there was not found a helper suitable for him. 21 So the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; then He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh at that place. 22 And the Lord God fashioned into a woman the rib which He had taken from the man, and brought her to the man, 23 And the man said, "This is now bone of my bones, And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man." (Gen. 2:15-23).
We know from Genesis 2 that Adam was made before Eve. We also know that it was Adam who was told to keep The Garden and cultivate it. Part of God's command to Adam to keep the Garden was to name the animals. This was not Eve's role. She was later made to be a helpmate to Adam and assist him in the calling God had given him--not the other way around. "For indeed man was not created for the woman's sake, but woman for the man's sake." (1 Cor. 11:9).
Naming Animals is an act of Dominion
Adam named the animals. Eve did not. Naming them was his first act of dominion, and it is a sign of authority; and it was God who brought the animals to Adam so that Adam could accomplish what God had commanded.
If the egalitarians are correct then, there should be no expression of authority of Adam over Eve in any way--at least not before the Fall. But, since we see Adam expressing his dominance over the animals by naming them and we see that Adam names Eve, we can then conclude that Adam's expressed dominance over Eve by his calling her 'woman' before the Fall and 'Eve' after it. Remember, as God brought the animals to Adam, he also brought Eve to Adam. "And the Lord God fashioned into a woman the rib which He had taken from the man, and brought her to the man. 23 And the man said, 'This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She shall be called woman, because she was taken out of Man.'" (Gen. 2:22-23). Also, "Now the man called his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of all the living." (Gen. 3:20). As God called the light day and the darkness night, so Adam called Eve woman.
Let's take a look at verses that deal with assigning names.
- Gen. 1:5, "And God called the light day, and the darkness He called night."
- Gen. 1:8, "And God called the expanse heaven."
- Gen. 1:10, "And God called the dry land earth, and the gathering of the waters He called seas."
- Gen. 4:26, "And to Seth, to him also a son was born; and he called his name Enosh."
- Gen. 17:5, "No longer shall your name be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham. For I will make you the father of a multitude of nations."
- Gen. 17:15, "Then God said to Abraham, 'As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall be her name.'"
- Gen. 41:45, "Then Pharaoh named Joseph Zaphenath-paneah; and he gave him Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On, as his wife. And Joseph went forth over the land of Egypt."
- 2 Kings 23:34, "And Pharaoh Neco made Eliakim the son of Josiah king in the place of Josiah his father, and changed his name to Jehoiakim . . . "
- 2 Kings 24:17, "Then the king of Babylon made his uncle Mattaniah, king in his place, and changed his name to Zedekiah."
- Dan. 1:7, "Then the commander of the officials assigned new names to them; and to Daniel he assigned the name Belteshazzar, to Hananiah Shadrach, to Mishael Meshach, and to Azariah Abed-nego."
- Isaiah 62:2, "And the nations will see your righteousness, and all kings your glory; And you will be called by a new name, which the mouth of the Lord will designate."
- John 1:42, "He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him, and said, "You are Simon the son of John; you shall be called Cephas" (which is translated Peter)."
So, does assigning names in the biblical context imply some sort of authority? It sure seems to be the case. We see God naming his creation. Then we see Adam, made in the image of God, also naming creation. He named the animals expressing his dominion over them just as God expressed his dominion over creation by naming the day, night, heaven, earth, and seas. We see Adam calling his helpmate Woman and then naming her Eve.
Also, in the verses above we see God exercising his authority and changing Abram's name to Abraham and Sarai to Sara. We see Pharaoh named Joseph as Zaphenath-paneah. Pharoah changed Eliakim to Hehoiakim after making him a king (he has the authority over him so as to make him king). The king of Babylon changed Mattaniah's name to Zedekiah after he made him King. The Commander of the officials changed the names of Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah. Jesus changed Cephas' name to Peter (obviously Jesus had authority over Peter).
So, does naming and changing someone's name designate a measure of authority? Absolutely, which is why Adam was giving that authority and he exercised it in assigning names.
- "animals and birds are paraded before the man by the divine Zookeeper for the man to name them, thereby exercising his authority over them."1
- "In ancient times, to name something or someone implied having dominion or ownership (see 17:5,15; 41:45; 2Ki 23:34; 24:17; Da 1:7)."2
- "It is an act of authority to impose names (Dan. 1:7), and of subjection to receive them."3
- "First, animals were created as the man's companions. They were under human authority (the man named them in v 20), but it was intended that they should not be exploited (cf. on 1:24–31).4
Egalitarians object, yet there is 1 Tim. 2:12-14
Still, the egalitarians will object and say that an absolute and total equality in all things exists between men and women in the church and the created order, and Adam's naming animals and naming Eve has nothing to do with it. But, is that what is implied in Paul's words in 1 Tim. 2:12-14? "But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet. 13 For it was Adam who was first created, and then Eve. 14 And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman being quite deceived, fell into transgression." Notice that Paul says he does not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man because Adam was created first, then Eve. Obviously, in the mind of Paul the issue of authority is tied to the created order. This is not merely a cultural phenomenon.
Paul goes on to tie authority in with the created order in 1 Cor. 11:7-10, "For a man ought not to have his head covered, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man. 8 For man does not originate from woman, but woman from man; 9 for indeed man was not created for the woman's sake, but woman for the man's sake. 10 Therefore the woman ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels." This is what Paul says. Authority is a huge issue with him. Notice that Paul says a woman is to have a symbol of authority upon her. Why? Because Adam was created first. Primacy in origin is related to authority.
What do others have to say about this?
- "They [women] must be silent, submissive, and subject, and not usurp authority. The reason given is because Adam was first formed, then Eve out of him, to denote her subordination to him and dependence upon him; and that she was made for him, to be a help-meet for him. And as she was last in the creation, which is one reason for her subjection, so she was first in the transgression, and that is another reason."5
- "Using the biblical history of creation from Gen 2, Paul argued that Adam was chronologically prior to Eve. The fact of the chronological priority of Adam was established before the fall of humankind and the subsequent entrance of sin. The fall of humankind would not alter Adam's chronological priority. The chronological priority of Adam becomes the support of Paul's command that the women were to show a spirit of attentiveness to learning and were to avoid an attempt at domineering men. In 1 Cor 11:8 Paul had inferred the dependence of Eve from the chronological priority of Adam. Paul apparently felt that the spiritual privileges of men and women in Christ (Gal 3:28) do not negate differences due to creation. The designation of Adam as "formed first" reflects the Jewish practice of primogeniture, where the firstborn male inherited a double portion of the inheritance and the responsibility of leadership in the home and in worship (Deut 21:15–17). Paul's point was that Adam's status as the oldest carried with it the leadership role suitable for the firstborn son. Paul transferred this quality of leadership role in the congregation to the male."6
- The prohibition of women teaching men seems to belong to the same context, although Paul here appeals more to what is appropriate and cites the Genesis story of creation. Two facts are brought out—Adam's priority and Eve's weakness in being deceived. The first points to God's creative act in forming man before woman, although Paul does not here refer to the fact that Eve was intended as man's helper and in no way inferior to him.7
- Paul, therefore, says, "I do not permit a woman to be a teacher." The context here has to do with church order, and the position of the man and woman in the church worship and work. The kind of teacher Paul has in mind is spoken of in Acts 13:1, I Corinthians 12:28, 29, and Ephesians 4:11, God-called, and God-equipped teachers, recognized by the Church as those having authority in the Church in matters of doctrine and interpretation. This prohibition of a woman to be a teacher, does not include the teaching of classes of women, girls, or children in a Sunday School, for instance, but does prohibit the woman from being a pastor, or a doctrine teacher in a school . . . The reason for the above position of the man in the Church and that of the woman, Paul says, is found in the original order of creation, and in the circumstances of the fall of man.8
Can this be any clearer? I don't see how it could be. Nevertheless, this position is not a popular one.
We must ask ourselves whether or not we want to submit to the authority of God's Word or submit God's Word to our wants, to our desires, and the political correctness that surrounds us. Let's stick to God's word.
Objections Answered
- In Matt. 1:21, the Angel Gabriel names Jesus: "And she will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for it is He who will save His people from their sins." Does this mean that Gabriel had dominion over Jesus?
- This argument fails to acknowledge that the Angel Gabriel is carrying out the commands of God. Furthermore, two verses later it says, "Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel," which translated means, "God with us." This is a quote from Isaiah 7:14 in which says, "Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, a virgin will be with child and bear a son, and she will call His name Immanuel."
- Therefore, the Angel was not naming Jesus but declaring what God had already proclaimed.
- What about men who abuse their authority?
- Men who abuse their authority are in sin. The Bible clearly teaches that men are to love their wives as Christ loved the church. It is not the patriarchal teaching that promotes male abuse but the failure of men to live all of Scripture in that of selecting only parts of it to justify their sin.
- Nothing in Genesis shows authority before the fall.
- This is simply not true. We clearly see God has demonstrated authority over his creation in bringing it into existence--naming it and its subsequent parts (light, darkness, land, seas, etc.,) and telling Adam to naming creations, cultivate the garden and keep it. This is God's exercising authority over creation in naming it and over Adam in telling him what to do. God gave instructions to Adam, and Adam gave God's instructions to Eve. We know this because in Genesis 3 we see where Satan tempts Eve, and Eve repeats the instructions God gave to Adam in Gen. 2:16. This means that Adam transmitted the instructions of God to Eve, and Eve repeated them to Satan. Adam served as God's authoritative representative to Eve.
- If being created first means authority, then the animals had authority over Adam since they came first.
- The issue of primacy and authority never deals with animals. How does an animal exercise authority? It can't. Authority can only rest with persons.

Air Board: a really silly, really expensive way to get around
Think Segways are cool? You'll probably make the same mistake about the Air Board, too. Look, it's $14,000! Fourteen thousand! You could buy yourself a really nice (albeit used) car for that, and still have your integrity intact, too.
Just imagine I'm bitterly mumbling the rest of this: the Air Board stands four feet tall when assembled (and some assembly is required), requires gasoline, has a 1.3 gallon tank which it burns through in about an hour and it goes 15 miles-per-hour.
If you end up falling off, it also has a "kill-switch" that'll halt the vehicle. You won't have to watch your $14,000 mistake fly off a cliff. Oh, and no, it won't glide over water.

Although I am older (I am 13) and it would be difficult for me, I sure do wish my people would take me on errands sometimes. I hate being left alone at the house. I feel like I never get to go out anymore. They took me to the dog park a few weeks ago and that was nice. There were deer there and I'll be honest and say that I didn't see them because my eyes are bad, and I didn't hear them because my ears are bad, but I smelled them! I just wish I wasn't getting so up there in age... Oh what I would give to be young again. I am still a happy guy and I love my life, but I wish I could do some of the same things I used to be able to, you know? Can anyone else relate?
I know exactly what you are talking about. I can't seem to go like I used to, but I still enjoy going wherever my family takes me. I have arthritis and some days it is hard to just stand up and walk. I also have a hard time hearing. As long as you are happy and have that wonderful family to take care of you, life is great!!
I feel ya!!! I still get excited when Mommy says "Who wants to go for a walk?" but now I don't really like to go too far. We go up the block then Mommy drops me back home and takes Atlas & Presley for their long walk. At least then I get a little peace and quiet!!!
Sweetie... Mommy understand perfectly your position, and she want to say to you something: you are sweetie, and you are important as you are... Your family loves you a lot, and you are a fantastic dog, so, be happy guy! A big big dogkiss from Italy... :)
Shadrack boy do I feel your pain. I never get to go out anywhere either. Just to the Vet and that's hard for me because I can't get into the car like I used to be able to. My ears are bad too, I'm deaf. My eyes are ok but they leak alot. I'm glad you can still smell, me too! That's the best part about being a dog, right? Read my age journal too if you want. You'll see we have alot in common.
My brother Buck's mom used to live here & my mom said when she was young she was so active & always running around & when she came to live with us she was already 11 yrs old and she basically slept all day. She told us how they would find her in the kithchen just standing there facing the wall like she was watching something. She used to stay with my mom's mom in her room alot, she lived here too, mom said she stayed with her because she could relate to grandmas age & ailments. Buck too is getting slower, he plays with me for awhile then lays down to nap.
Oh, Shadrack, we love you no matter what! Regardless of age, all dogs like a little adventure in their life. My neighbor dog, Oscar, is going blind. He gets upset by what he can't see and barks a lot when he's outside in his fence. However, he is quiet and happily sniffing around when his people take him for a walk. I hope you get some adventures again soon, so you can tell us all about it! Woofs!
