Johnston calls for temporary wheelchair accessible toilet at Portrane beach
Corina Johnston, Labour Party Local Area Representative is calling on Fingal County Council to urgently install a temporary wheelchair accessible toilet at the Brook beach, Portrane. Johnston said;" Imagine for a moment you are out walking and realise you need to spend a penny. You come across a public toilet and avail of its facilities and then continue your walk in a contented frame of mind."Johnston added; " now imagine you are on the same journey but on this occasion you are a person in a wheelchair and urgently need to use the facilities of a public toilet. You arrive at the cubicle and realise that the door frame is not wide enough to allow access for your wheelchair ." Johnston continued; "This is the actual position that Jack Tanner, a young man from the Burrow, Portrane who has additional needs, found himself in recently, when out with his personal assistant for recreation. In the lashing rain, the wheelchair became jarred within the door frame of the public toilets and his assistant had to haul himself over Jack and his chair to assist him. An absolutely shattering experience for this young person which does not send out a positive message for inclusiveness and equality for all. "Johnston said ;"This incident need not have happened if my concerns had been taken on board. I contacted Fingal County Council in January last when they were installing the replacement toilets and expressed my objection to its location and the lack of wheelchair and baby changing facilities within the cubicles. In February I posted that surely it was possible to hire or rent a more appropriate wheelchair accessible toilet for the Summer. The response from Fingal was that they had already provided a temporary toilet and were in the process of identifying a site for a permanent replacement." Johnston said; "We have recently been informed that Portrane is in the second tranche of replacement public toilets to be installed with a projected date for the completion of the installation of the permanent toilets now 2024. This is not good enough. "The Labour team of Duncan Smith TD, our councillors and I are now calling on Fingal County Council to install a temporary wheelchair accessible public toilet as a priority at the Brook beach Portrane, something similar to what was recently installed in Portmarnock and Sutton. We are also requesting that the CEO and the council's Access Officer become personally involved in its provision. What happened to Jack Tanner should not be allowed happen again. "

Offshore banking is the depositing of money in an account in a country which has a low tax jurisdiction. Offshore banking is used for either greater privacy of personal or business wealth, the opportunity to be able to pay less tax as well as having access to a more varied range of investment products.
There are a number of advantages to offshore banking; whether you are an individual or a large company owner. You can bank in a variety of currencies which can be useful to expats with financial commitments in more than one nation and if the country you're living in has an unfavourable financial climate, you can hold onto your money in a country which is more stable.
Those with offshore accounts are excellent vehicles for expats who want the maximum flexibility in terms of using their accounts. It means they can access funds online, on the phone or at cashpoints at any time of the day or night.
With offshore banking, the interest earned is often tax free. This means there are higher immediate returns with no need to apply for a rebate which delays having funds.
Having an offshore account offers greater privacy. In Switzerland for example, there is a huge emphasis on maintaining client confidentiality.
Anyone wanting to protect their estate from inheritance tax may find that an offshore account is beneficial. It's wise to speak to an advisor if this is a planned financial route to ensure the optimum benefits are achieved.
Offshore banking can mean lower banking charges as well as higher rates of interest in comparison to that offered by onshore banks.
There are now a number of high street banks with an offshore division which means you don't even have to change your bank – just swap to an offshore account. There's every chance you may be offered your own private bank account manager if you go offshore which means you can have a more hands on approach to assisting with your banking needs. There are also often more investment services and products available through this route which makes the range of banking opportunities wider.

Can I just say how disappointing it is that you have chosen to use this cast for the DVD rather than the Hayward/Hay Choe/Campbell cast.
I make this the fourth Osipova dvd we've had in the two seasons she's been principal at the ROH. Giselle (fair enough a great performance) , Swan Lake (don't know didn't see it) and most baffling of all La Fille mal Gardee which I saw live and was poor compared to BOTH the Morera and Choe casts. I appreciate that there are some Osipova fans who like nothing more than big jumps, bravura and over-acting but its not everybody's cup of tea especially when its Ashton choreography which requires the soft rather than hard sale.
What's more depressing is that Natalia will probably leave soon to go and do work with b/f Polunin and then we will have DVDs of an ex RB star who pitched up for a couple of seasons with a Russian style and then scooted off. Is that really a representation of the RB?
Wouldn't it have been nicer to give some limelight to some young British dancers who will be with us (hopefully) for some time and Alex and Yuhui both under-appreciated by the current management but both genuine Ashton dancers?
I think this is a bit of a sell-out to those who just follow a big name. I really don't want to purchase the dvd now to make a stand but we have so few Ashton dvds available it will be difficult to hold-out.
It would be nice to get an answer on why the most recent dvds have all featured Osipova...
Luca responded on 28 January 2016 at 8:37pm
Maybe in other Ashton works yes, but Rhapsody actually calls for a more Bravura performance as it was made for Baryshnikov. Ashton didn't want to make this piece in the usual British style because of this.
My mother actually saw the original cast of which I'm extremely jealous. This was her second time seeing a cinema broadcast and she thoroughly enjoyed it. She's even happier she'll have a copy to watch at home.
Michael Cooke responded on 16 January 2019 at 3:24pm
Totally agree Rob with your comments Osipova is no Ashton dancer her lack of musicality is totally at odds with the Ashton pieces Ashton was not Dasha and flash but Lyricism and acting, neither of which Osipova possesses! As for acting -pulling funny faces is not acting! You must interpret roles with your whole body not just your face , Seymour and Nunez both have this quality they become the person whether Lise Odette or Natalia Petrovna or Isadora Duncan in the wonderful piece Ashton created for a Gala .
Stuart Dixon responded on 28 January 2016 at 5:08pm Reply
Great news. Shame you could not also include Frankie's version of Rhapsody which I believe was also filmed. Would like to have been able to compare her's and James Hay's against Natalia's and Steven's.
James Black responded on 28 January 2016 at 6:22pm Reply
Although i enjoyed the cinema broadcast very much, I think it is short sighted of management to choose to issue that cast on DVD especially when it seems that the essentially preferable matinee cast of 16 January was also filmed.
I understand the need for names but the comments regarding Osipova's suitability for this particular programme are valid (although it would be a shame to be deprived of MacRae's staggering performance) and lovely as Cuthbertson, Muntagirov and Kaneko (brava to her for jumping in so compellingly) were, there was something very special about, in particular, Francesca Hayward and Alexander Campbell. Surely, the point of the DVD is to preserve not just a star's performance but a performance that will help capture the essence of a work.
I'm quibbling at a high level but that matinee of 16 January was truly special/
Simon Smith responded on 28 January 2016 at 6:26pm Reply
Looking forward immensely to the DVD. I do though very much sympathise with the comments above and on the various reactions to the performances. I'm sure you'll be using footage from the performances you recorded for the final DVD so that for example Natalia's slight stumble is not preserved for posterity (it was good that the final Fille DVD managed to show an unknotted ribbon which was brodcast live). But in light of so many comments would it be possible to include as an extra the 16 January performance from just one wide angle so that we can all enjoy that wonderful performance again and better appreciate the perspective?
Nina Battleday responded on 28 January 2016 at 7:22pm Reply
Pity it isn't the Hayward/Hay Rhapsody and the Choe/Campbell Pigeons. I suppose glossing names will make it more marketable, but still a shame not to have such beautiful performances as those mentioned available on DVD.
Sorry, should have said 'glossier'.
Harriet responded on 28 January 2016 at 8:03pm Reply
I enjoyed the performance and am glad it will be released. I don't think the cast was as bad as people are saying, but then I'm probably not a ballet expert compared to those commenting.
I'm glad the RB are releasing lots of DVDs. It can't make a lot of money? Compared to other theatres who release nothing we get spoilt! And not everyone will like the cast. Just don't buy it. At the end of the day it's just a dvd?
And to the other person, I believe the reason Osipova has had a lot of DVDs realeases is more due to the performances she's been in. They haven't been released super recently & don't have confusing rights (Balanchine for eg). And there's always lots of people asking for them. Also Osipova isn't the main lead here??? I'd say the bigger draw was the 2 pigeons. Sorry to say I'm not a great Osipiva fan but I find your comments quite rude.
I would have liked Frankie/Hay as well (not fussed on the other cast much, probably not a popular opinion). But I'm very glad we're getting this :-)
Paul responded on 28 January 2016 at 9:31pm Reply
I would actually buy the Osipova dvd. As much as I like Ms Hayward, I know where my personal preferences are.
Nick B responded on 28 January 2016 at 9:45pm Reply
Very pleased about this DVD release. In view of the comments above, why not include the other filmed versions as well - it would make a very interesting double DVD set!
Nicola responded on 28 January 2016 at 10:20pm Reply
I'm delighted by this! Loved Cuthbertson/Muntagirov in Two Pigeons.
Kate E responded on 28 January 2016 at 10:23pm Reply
I agree with Rob G. I think Osipova is over rated by those dazzled by her Russian pedigree. We have some terrific talent in Hayward and Campbell, plus Hay and Choe - if only we could have them captured on DVD instead of the overblown current 'star'. I suppose management have to go with the cast that they think will sell the most, and I expect they are right given the public's fascination with their Russian protege, but it is disappointing that RB dancers of true precision, purity and grace have been sidelined for the DVD.
Nick Byrne responded on 28 January 2016 at 11:29pm Reply
I don't really want to get into a claque-fight, but I'm glad that MacRae's amazing performance has been recorded - it was such a bravura display, and I feel it is the male role which defines this ballet. I've seen all three interpretations of the ballerina role and I like them all. I also saw Morera the last time too. And I know Hayward is brilliant but Osipova brought something very special to the role which I loved, and I am glad to have it on tape. And there's also the wonderful asymmetrical relationship to the original cast, so I'll be buying it.

Thrilled that a dvd of 2 pigeons coming out,vadim is a very special dancer,loved the performance on tuesday
r.a. responded on 29 January 2016 at 1:51am Reply
I find the comments by Rob G very surprising. Natalia is one of the greatest dancers in the world today and we are lucky to have her at the Royal Ballet. She lights up the stage the moment she appears. What you call over-acting is actually a fine sense of the dramatic which is very exciting to audiences. All the choreographers who work at the Royal Ballet have chosen to create roles on her and find her rewarding to work with - I'm looking forward to the premiere of Strapless in a few weeks. It's not surprising that the Royal Ballet should want to release DVDs with her while we are fortunate enough to have her here in London - just as they did previously with Tamara Rojo and Carlos Acosta.
Stevie responded on 30 January 2016 at 3:35pm
Agree totally with Rob G. Can't think where r.a. is getting his/her distorted information from.
Marian Sheath responded on 31 January 2016 at 5:33pm
Yes completely agree with you r.a. We are extremely lucky to have Osipova at The Royal. I have been following her for 8 years now since she was a soloist with The Bolshoi and she is magical in every way. Her Rhapsody was very emotional naturally. After all she has grown up with Rachmaninoff. It is in her soul. Let's make the most of her performances while we can. The company were exquisite in this performance. Bravo to RB.

Is there any chance that the recent Cavalleria Rusticana/ I Pagliacci Double Bill will end up on DVD? It was tremendous and was also shown live in the cinema? A DVD release would be so welcome!!
Timmie responded on 29 January 2016 at 9:46am Reply
It will be wonderful to have some more Ashton on disc. Is there any chance of sneaking the Hayward/Hay Rhapsody onto the disc as well as that looked like it was being filmed on the 16/1? It's only short…
And I will add that I am very pleased that it will cover the Cuthbertson and Muntagirov cast - there is only one other DVD showing one of the many of Muntagirov's beautiful performances it is great that there will now be another.
Stevie responded on 29 January 2016 at 2:01pm Reply
Will it be possible to edit out Natalia Osipova's unfortunate slip/trip about half way through Rhapsody. These things happen in live performances, but it would be a pity to archive it for posterity on DVD and Blue Ray. I am sure she would wish it edited, despite her good recovery.
Like everyone else here, I would love to see Frankie's performance of Rhapsody archived. This coupled with delightful performance from Lauren, clearly at her best.
Fiona Dunn responded on 29 January 2016 at 3:32pm Reply
I am joining the requests above, asking for a DVD of Hayward / Hay, and Choe / Campbell . The former two are true Ashton RB trained dancers and it would be wonderful to have a record of their performance, along with Choe / Campbell in Two Pigeons. Do please consider this?!
Marguerite Wiewel responded on 29 January 2016 at 3:53pm Reply
I don't think it is hlepful to discuss casts in the vein of 'better than'. These are all professionals, all amazing, and personal preferences play a big role in the comments. I only want to mention the superb performance of Matthew Ball, Beatriz Stix-Brunell, Nicol Edmonds and Claire Calvert on the evening of 23rd January as I don't see their names mentioned at all. They deserve to not only be mentioned but commended for an outstanding and most enjoyable performance.
Greg Garner responded on 29 January 2016 at 5:12pm Reply
Can I also add to the requests for the Hay/Hayward performance of Rhapsody to be included as a bonus - if not in place of - the McRae/Osipova one. The double bill is relatively short and if the Hayward/Hay performance was also included the running time would still be no longer than some full-length ballets like Mayerling or R&J.
Lynne responded on 29 January 2016 at 7:24pm Reply
I'm thrilled that these two truly wonderful ballets are going to be released on DVD. In the last couple of weeks, I've been lucky enough to see all casts, and I have loved them ALL!! Each cast brings something different (the whole point of seeing various casts). I'm perfectly happy to have the cinema broadcast version as the DVD, but if there could be some added extras of the Hayward/Hay Rhapsody as well as maybe some snippets from the Choe/Campbell Two Pigeons, that would be just PERFECT!! Since they have been recorded, it would seem a real waste not to ... Pretty please?! :-)
Charlie responded on 29 January 2016 at 9:05pm Reply
I was at Tuesday's performance and it was pretty special, in particular Mr. McRae!! so massive thanks to RB for putting this on bluray. I've found I'm watching my ballet and dance DVDs far more than feature films and other stuff!! It's so nice to be able to relive the performance - it's amazing how much one misses or forgets soon after seeing something live.
I guess we all have our tastes in dancers and it's impossible to put all the casts on a recording, but surely the great thing is to be able to preserve these great great performances and be able to watch them at home!! I'm sure there are financial considerations, but I'd love to see all the live broadcasts transferred to disc for both dance and opera.
Valerie Knight responded on 29 January 2016 at 9:22pm Reply
So pleased there is to be a DVD of Two Pigeons which was my main reason to go to the cinema and the ROH - Matthew Ball and Beatriz Stix-Brunell - also excellent performances.(Yuhui Choe/Valentino Zucchetti in Rhapsody). I'd prefer their Rhapsody with Lauren C. and Vadim Muntagirov's Two Pigeons. We all have our favourites. Pity we can't Pick and mix! I agree with comments re the preponderance of Osipova in live relays. I avoided Fille mal Gardee and Swan Lake. I have to admit that Steven McRae was outstanding in Rhapsody and deserves to be on DVD. Re Fille mal Gardee I believe Laura Morera won an award for her performance as Lise.
I would just like to add that I loved Fumi Kaneko as the gypsy girl - vibrant performance.

Wonderful that you're doing a DVD of "Rhapsody"
with Osipova!
John Denton responded on 30 January 2016 at 8:35am Reply
I saw the live screening, and I thought it excellent. What I fail to understand is 1) the need for two presenters when all they are doing it reading from an autocue, 2) the obsessive need for spoilers. I'm relatively new to ballet, so I don't know the story lines and rather like I don't read the last page of a book as soon as I open it, I really don't need someone to tell me what I will be watching and I don't need video clips of the performance including the final scene! Any joy in discovering the pigeon step sequence and delight when the pigeon flew across the stage in the final few moments were completely lost. It's a great shame you feel compelled to do this.
Norma Rothwell responded on 30 January 2016 at 12:35pm Reply
I too am so pleased that the DVD of the live transmission of Rhapsody/Two Pigeons is to be released. I really enjoyed the evening but would also welcome more recordings of alternative casts. What I would not give to have seen Barishnikov's performance of Rahpsody too! I am also delighted that the Royal continues to transmit to the cinema since due to disability (osteoarthritis) and finances I can no longer get to many live theatre performances and anyway up,here in Manchester we only usually get the same big classics. So carry on the good work the Royal and I will continue to buy the DVD's. Thank you to all the wonderful dancers I am now able to see too.

Will the new DVD be also available for download via iTunes? I notice that the Royal Ballet have released the Roja/Acosta/Nunez casting of La Bayadere on iTunes which I now have. I would love to see more performances available in this way - a really convenient way of watching on your phone or tablet as well as a larger screen. Also a great way of attracting a younger audience who increasingly expect to be able to access material in this way. Are there plans to release more ballet performances on iTunes?
Rose Slavin (Former Assistant Content Producer) responded on 11 April 2016 at 10:27am
Hi Rowena,
Thanks for your comment. We don't have any upcoming releases on iTunes. However we are currently exploring more in demand and online options to view our productions. Please keep an eye on the news section of the website and our social channels for updates.

I strongly disagree with all the above "anti-Osipova / McRae" comments. Frankly I've seen both casts and there is absolutely not a single second of hesitation possible: the McRae performance DOES deserve to be released in a DVD, while the matinee cast was interesting and of strong quality but not unforgettable.
It is different regarding the 2 Pigeons, where it is true that the Choe/Campbell cast was more idiomatic and touching, however the cinema cast was excellent too.
Globally I find the "anti-Osipova" comments disgraceful and totally blind. Just take a minute and look at Covent Garden's audience reaction when she dances, It is everytime a thrilling triumph. Frankly I would not come as often as I do to the RB if casts were not at that high level.
Of course I also adore Francesca Hayward and many other members of the company (Stix-Brunell, Choe, Hamilton...), but what I really dislike is that kind of "Osipova-bashing" which has taken over this blog.
Just back from the matinee. If you have a record of Frankie's Rhapsody you must put it on the DVD. Stunning, simply Stunning.
Joan Hopton responded on 30 January 2016 at 10:59pm Reply
I too would love to see Francesca,'s performance on dvd. I really enjoyed Natalia's but Francesca's performance was pure Ashton and a total delight. It would be great to have both on dvd.

I'm personally looking forward to this Blu Ray. Osipova's and MacRae's performances were fantastic, and I enjoyed "Two Pigeons" with Cuthbertson and Muntagirov.
I'll definitely buy this one. Hopefully ROH will not be discouraged to make more Blu Ray's because of few commenters who seem to be more interested in personal life of cast members than performances themselves.
Said that, I wouldn't mind to see other versions available as well. Any notable performance deserves to be preserved to enjoy it later.
elleG responded on 31 January 2016 at 8:32am Reply
I echo the request to have Francesca Hayward on the DVD. There is an awful lot of Osipova and McRae on the ROH's DVDs already. Glad that Vadim Muntagirov will be recorded, however. There has not been enough of him in cinema relays yet. It should really have been him and Laura Morera who were shown in Fille last year. They were the first night cast, after all.
Maria responded on 31 January 2016 at 2:59pm Reply
I personally don't feel the need for a second cast of exactly the same performance on dvd? I very much enjoyed this cast (yes even Osipova, who I feel some people didn't even give a chance for this broadcast) & am glad we get two Ashton masterpieces preserved.
I actually get a bit fed up of people always complaining. The ROH can ever do right by some people. Frankie will get her dvd chance, just give it time. You're forgetting the vast majority of non RB goers probably don't even know who she is. And what's the alternative? No Ashton DVD? As someone else has said, if you dislike the cast don't buy the DVD. I for one thank the roh for releasing this.
How can you rave about Ashton Masterpieces when Osipova has frankly not the slightest idea of Ashton "Style" It is totally alien to her being schooled in the Russian style. Mc Rae is a great all round dancer Ashton is natural to him with his training. Let us not for forget that at the Premiere of Rhapsody I think for the QMs 80th Birthday Barishnikov who has a far purer Russian style than O partnered by Leslie Collier a Gorgeous technician of the Ashton style!!! Lyrical and very neat in her technique
Patrick Buckingham responded on 31 January 2016 at 5:23pm Reply
It's a great shame not to give the audience the benefit of seeing BOTH casts in the DVD. You've filmed both casts and an intelligent public will naturally have different preferences. I personally enjoyed Hayward and Hay ahead of Osipova and McRae in Rhapsody but others will feel the opposite.
Lily responded on 31 January 2016 at 5:28pm Reply
Yuhui and Alex were wonderful to watch during the rehearsal of The Two Pigeons during World Ballet Day, and I unfortunately didn't have the opportunity to watch them dance the entire ballet. I was hoping that their version would be on the dvd instead, as a student, it's incredibly difficult to travel to London to watch the real thing, but Yuhui and Alex are my favourite partnership within the Royal Ballet and it would be a pleasure to watch them dance this ballet together. Yuhui is a fantastic Ashton dancer and it would be a shame not to be able to watch her full performance. Have to say that Fumi was incredible during the cinema relay, outstanding performance!

Having now seen the cinema encore, I feel that the DVD needs editing at the end so as to ensure that we can see the face of the Young Man as he returns full of remorse to the studio - the relay was very gloomy. Also, why did the camera linger on the Young Girl while missing the man putting the pigeon on its perch and then moving, shame-facedly, back towards her? These crucial moments in the ballet need to be emphasised, not lost because of the camerawork/editing. Please would you be so kind as to pass on these comments to those responsible for the DVD? Thank you.

Thank you so much! Vadim is an incredible dancer and I'm thrilled to know that we'll have his Two Pigeons performance on DVD. Lauren too was fabulous, I'll treasure this DVD and watch it time and again.
Unlike most commenters here, I adore Natalia and will gladly buy any DVD of her the Royal Ballet releases.
Please please film everything Vadim dances, I for one will buy it! He's an absolute treasure, never let him leave.

Oh joy! Big HATS OFF and a BIG thank you to RB – these beautiful mesmerising performances performed by the very best artists in the world and now captured for our joy and delight and released on BluRay/DVD will be a WINNER!
Ignore the children – they are going through their excitable phase and so they are bound to get agitated – it's all part of growing up.
Seriously though, with regards to 'spoilers' - in all presented art – be it a painting; a sculpture; a photograph; a play; a book; a film; a musical; an opera; or a ballet, there are SIX aspects to consider – these being:
The PLOT - what is allegedly taking place.
The STORY that drives the plot – the glue that holds everything together
The SUB-PLOT – what is a book, play, opera, ballet, or film REALLY saying?
The ALLEGORIES - what do the principal characters and their actions REALLY represent?
The SEMIOLOGY - what do the objects (flowers, flags, furniture, artefacts, objet d'art, attire, etc.) in a play, book, ballet, or film ACTUALLY represent?
the SUB-TEXT – the subliminal message that a director wishes you to take away at the conclusion of the performance so as to form opinion and broaden ones mind.
Charlie Chaplin; David Griffith; Frank Capra; Powell and Pressburger; David Lean; Terence Malik; Jean Cocteau; Joshua Logan; Roberto Benigni; Alfred Hitchcock; Martin Scorsese; and Frederico Fellini use all of these elements in a simple but very clever and effective way to press home their messages. Equally - Filippo Taglioni; Marius Petippa; Mikhail Fokine; Oleg Vinogradov; George Balanchine; Rudolph Nureyev; Peter Wright; Frederick Ashton; and Carlos Acosta use the 'five elements of staging' – set, costume, choreography, music, and mime - to tell a story and press home their messages.
So - rather than give away the plot, the people who prepare the 'trailers' should deploy the 'what happens next – well you will just have to watch the ballet to find out' ploy - a very successful ploy extensively used by the makers of feature films to draw in its audience – and they come in their MILLIONS.
As one correspondent noted, it is all well and good showing 'revealing' 'snapshot' moments – such as the fabulous pas de trois from 'Swan Lake' that takes place between the prince; the 'black swan'; and 'Rothbart' as the black swan deceives the prince and constantly asks her father 'what to do next' and when to 'go in for the kill' in an attempt to destroy the prince just before the denouement - so as to attract those that are already 'in the know' – but as noted - and from my own experience of attending these wonderful 'live cinema' events - a large proportion of the cinema audience – particularly young people - are seeing ballet for the very first time – which is bringing with it a whole new generation of 'ballet buns' (balletomanes) who are then going on to take up the art – with the GUYS loving it as much as the women - and wishing to participate in it - and so putting in 'plot spoilers' that show part of the spectacle that awaits the viewer does steal away the element of surprise - which 'spoils' the moment.
This is akin to having someone sat beside you who has seen the presentation telling you 'what happens next' as the action unfolds – which is infuriating and it isn't necessary.

I saw the matinee performance of Rhapsody on 16th January by Francesca Hayward and James Hay, then also saw the matinee on 23rd January with Steven McRae and Natalia Osipova. Steven unquestionably did a wonderful interpretation, but equally unquestionably, Francesca was much superior to Osipova in the role. Granted, Osipova had improved in the cinema relay performance, but she still did not approach the standard of Ashton performance given by Francesca.
I also felt that Hayward / Hay danced OPPOSITE each other i.e. PARTNERING EACH OTHER, while Osipova / McRae were dancing IN OPPOSITION to each other. i.e. seeing who could OUTSHINE the other.
I have no doubt in my mind that the H/H cast should be available on the DVD, and hope that the powers that be include it, even as an extra 'bonus' feature. It would be interesting, then, to do a poll of viewers to see which version proves more popular!! There's a challenge!!
I had the good fortune to see three casts in "The Two Pigeons", and found all delightful, so I won't express any preferences of cast for it.
I certainly shall buy the DVD, but I'll be disappointed if the H/H version of "Rhapsody" is not made available. It has, after all, been filmed!
EliaAmato responded on 1 February 2016 at 3:45pm Reply
This is the fourth Osipova dvd we've had in the two seasons she's been principal at the ROH.
I think it's ridiculous, she does not represent a british dancer, she's not a fine Ashton dancer. She has nothing of british heritage.
I would also like to know why Manon or Carmen Mix (broadcasted also to Cinema) will not have a dvd?
Dave Morgan responded on 1 February 2016 at 4:08pm Reply
this screams out for a DVD extra - for Hayward/Hay's Rhapsody. Go on, you know you want to! :-)
Roger responded on 1 February 2016 at 4:18pm Reply
There is clearly a very strong groundswell supporting the inclusion of the Hay/Hayward performance alongside the McRae/Osipova - and I'm another supporter. Would ROH care to respond on this as a possibility? The pieces are short, so Bluray at least could certainly accommodate it.
Janet McNulty responded on 1 February 2016 at 6:05pm Reply
Would it not be possible, if you insist on issuing the cinema relay cast on dvd, to at least include Hayward/Hay's performance of same as an extra. Earlier someone said that Rhapsody is more bravura but I infinitely preferred the quieter interpretation by Hayward/Hay. It is equally valid. Come to think of it the ideal would be 2 dvd - Hayward/Hay Choe/Campbell being the alternative. I know this cast was filmed because I was right by one of the cameras at the matinee on 16th.
Rachael responded on 1 February 2016 at 6:36pm Reply
I've seen the three casts of Rhapsody & three of The Two Pigeons. I enjoyed all of the performances tremendously & appreciated the different qualities each cast / dancer brought. Though I have to add a special mention for Yuhui Choe & Alexander Campbell's performance on 16th Jan, which I found incredibly moving - even
from my seat up in the Amphi.
So I'd also love to see Hayward/Hay's Rhapsody, plus Choe/Campbell's performance of Two Pigeons which ROH filmed on 16th Jan added to this as a dvd/blu ray extra.
If it wouldn't all fit on one disc, I'd happily pay extra for a two disc special :D
Lauritz responded on 2 February 2016 at 9:20am Reply
I understand the strong feelings regarding different casts in the Ashton Mixed programme but it's important to retain a sense of balance! Opus Arte is a subsidiary of the ROH and we are extraordinarily fortunate that this arrangement means that we get far, far more ROH recordings both operatic and ballet, than any other Company in the world. But Opus Arte is a commercial company with a global market and Ms Osipova is an international super star, while Ms Cuthbertson and Messrs Muntagirov and McRae are jewels in the RB crown. People will buy their DVDs and Blu-Rays, as delighted as I am that two major gaps in the Ashton repertoire are to be filled.
We have been extraordinarily lucky in having Ms Osipova in the RB and, rather than trolling her with unpleasant and very personal comments, we should be welcoming her with open arms. The Ballet world is harshly competitive but other dancers will get their chances. Ms Osipova and other principals have earned theirs and I look forward to seeing them, along with the next generation of RB dancers in the 2016/7 season.

Fantastic news for fans across the UK and abroad that there will be a DVD of these two gorgeous ballets going on sale- the new costumes by Natalia Stewart (after William Chappell's originals) and the ROH Costume Department for Rhapsody will look beautiful on DVD as will the colourful sets and costumes for The Two Pigeons. I've seen 3 previous different productions of Rhapsody prior to this January's (only just missed seeing Collier and Baryshnikov's performances); Steven, Natalia and their fellow cast members are among the best and most enjoyable renditions I've seen. Lesley Collier (on whom the ballet was created) has done an excellent job coaching them. I've only seen BRB/SWRB in the charming Two Pigeons on tour over the last three decades and Christopher Carr has done a superb job of mounting the revival on the larger ROH stage, especially coaching several different international casts -most of whom are probably too young ever to have seen the ballet on stage. Lauren, Vadim, Fumi and Ryochi gave an eloquent and passionate account of this looks-easy-but-it's-really-not piece and I'll really enjoy watching it over and over on DVD! (Also how brilliant that the birds followed their "stage directions"...lol ....they sometimes refuse to fly to where they are needed!)

Thanks for all your comments about the upcoming Rhapsody / The Two Pigeons DVD and Blu-Ray release.
Unfortunately we aren't able to release the Hayward/Hay performance or include it as a bonus feature.
As many of you have noted, there were cameras in the auditorium during the performance on 16 January, but these were only used for a camera rehearsal prior to the live cinema relay later in the run. Therefore there is no footage of the Hayward/Hay performance available for us to use.

Now you have called time in the debate of which performance of Rhapsody is to be represented on DVD, could you please answer my earlier question as to whether the Osipova slip/trip on stage can be edited out on the released artwork. Please don't tell me that it wasn't noticed.
Chris Shipman (Head of Brand Engagement and Social Media) responded on 3 February 2016 at 12:39pm
Hi Stevie,
Occasionally minor edits are made to DVDs for artistic purposes - this will be explored in post-production for the Rhapsody/Two Pigeons DVD/Blu-Ray release.
Simon Smith responded on 4 February 2016 at 4:39pm
Thanks for the reply. There were a couple of other points where it would be good to have a response.
A number of people have commented on the concentration on close ups at the expense of being able to appreciate the organic whole - particularly in Rhapsody where we have the six men and women. Some DVDs do include as extras footage giving a much wider perspective - swans, snowflakes etc. I'm sure any extra footage of the superb Royal Ballet soloists would be hugely welcomed and enable us better to appreciate Ashton's genius.
It's good to be able to draw on several performances for assembling the final DVD and I fully support judicious editing. Hopefully this would also ensure that Vadim's careful settling of the first dove on the chair is included.
Finally I do hope that you're able to confirm that the 16 January tapes are to be included in the Royal Ballet's own video archives. What a treasure trove that must be and it would be great to know more about it.
Looking forward to the DVD.
Chris Shipman (Head of Brand Engagement and Social Media) responded on 12 February 2016 at 1:44pm
Thanks for your comment and apologies for the delay in replying.
The tapes will be included in the Company's internal archive which - as well as recording performances for posterity - is used by dancers preparing for roles. Thank you also for your email suggestion about a feature focusing on the archives.
I've fed your comment about close-ups and editing back to our post-production team.
Stuart Dixon responded on 2 February 2016 at 11:41pm Reply
Thanks for the response Mr. Shipman What a shame.
Perhaps you could mention to the powers that be that whilst we do appreciate these DVD's being released and we really do love them, plus we do love Natalia's dancing there is more than one wonderful dancer who may not yet be credited with being a principal who is worth presenting to the rest of the world.
Helen S responded on 3 February 2016 at 12:51pm Reply
I'm thrilled it's being released - it was my first time seeing it, and I loved both ballets. I can't comment on which dancers should be included, though I think the ballet world and fans alike would benefit from a variety of principals' performances being preserved, so we can enjoy many principals, rather than just one or two. If you have an embarrassment of riches, embrace it - don't keep using the same people.
But what a lovely "problem" to have...

I have never seen such an extensive debate on the release of a work of art on DVD. The shear volume of public interest and the wishes of the vast majority of the paying public are clearly recorded for ROH to see. Quite apart from a small minority asking for these opinions to be ignored or stifled, it is pleasing to see that ROH are not going to ignore them and these observations should be carried forward into planning of future presentations and releases. I thank Mr Shipman for his reply to my question.

I feel I must respond to Stevie's comment on 30 January 2016 at 3:35pm: 'Can't think where r.a. is getting his/her distorted information from.' First of all, everyone is entitled to their own personal opinion; you can't say that an opinion is distorted because it doesn't coincide with your own. Secondly, please note the choreographer Christopher Wheeldon's words about Osipova in the video about Strapless which has recently been uploaded' 'She is a unique and wonderful artist ... really one of the greatest ballerinas of our time.'
L. A. Thomas responded on 17 February 2016 at 4:58am Reply
Don't edit out Opsiva's slip. Dance students need to see what a brilliant dancer does when she makes a mistake, and they need to realize that a professional keeps on going and finishes well!

There is no such thing as a negative response. All responses are given by the public in the best interest of future performance and the ROH. Critical feedback is as useful as praise when evaluating a service.
All comments made in this forum are based on honest observations by reviewers and in return, the ROH will value them and actively demonstrate that they care about what the public thinks.
It is no different to restaurant operators wanting honest feedback from 'Tripadvisor'. This is not a 'look how good I am' forum.

Osipova and McRae are great dancers, a pleasure to see individually or together, and I eagerly await the publication of the DVD. But when will Osipova be scheduled to dance at Covent Garden again? Her omission for the current season has caused talk of further injuries.
M.T. responded on 2 May 2016 at 12:39am Reply
A simple question, When is this DVD actually going to be released?
It gives me no pleasure in saying this but when I compare the recordings of ballets filmed by the BBC and the same works filmed for streaming by your in- house team that have subsequently been released on DVD both the lighting levels and the choice of shots are better on the BBC recordings than on your own.
The BBC recordings give a better account of the ballet as a whole. Those filming then seemed to understand when the audience needs to see the full stage and when it needs to see groups of dancers or individual dancers. The choice of shots was better. There were very few close ups because the assumption was that the audience wanted to see the whole dancer in motion.
As far as lighting is concerned cameras may be far more light sensitive today but stage lighting levels are not always adequate for filmed performances..
The Bolshoi streamed ballet performances are well lit and they don't suffer from an obsession with the close up. I get the impression that considerably more thought is given to what their audience is going to experience when they see a streamed performance than is the case with yours.
It is almost as if the Bolshoi approach their streamed performances from a ballet goer's perspective and with the idea that they must give their audience the very best experience of the performance that they possibly can. Unfortunately that does not seem to be so much of a priority at the ROH.
Recently someone suggested that supplementary lighting should be used at streamed performances and was told that use of such lighting was out of the question as it would spoil the performance for those in the theatre. If an audience has already been warned that a performance is being filmed and that the stage lighting is being boosted by supplementary lighting
it has no grounds for complaint if such lighting is used,
The Opera House response is a statement that you give priority to the enjoyment of the two thousand or so people in the theatre over the thousands who can only get to see your performances by attending ones that are streamed. It suggests that the ROH does not understand that its cinema audience is just as important as the one in the theatre. It does after all support you through its taxes.
I find it very strange that the ROH has not woken up to the need to treat the cinema audience as its main focus for performances that are being streamed. The Bolshoi seem to know and understand this. Perhaps it is something to do with the company's history and the fact that it has long been used in soft diplomacy but the Bolshoi gives the impression that it is concerned to ensure that its public thinks the very best of it whereas the ROH still too often gives the impression that it thinks it is doing the public a favour by permitting it to see its performances.

You may think that you need to be involved with sports or be a gym bunny to enjoy the benefits of sports massage, but this isn't the case. I have many regular patients who benefit from my treatments and they feel I give a much firmer massage than local spas or therapists who use various relaxation techniques. There is a whole science behind sports massage and I have a complex understanding of the body and how it should work. These elements combined allow a simple relaxation session to offer so much more. Depending on who I treat, softer Swedish massage techniques can be used, or a combination of fascial release, soft tissue techniques and stretching can be applied to work on chronic areas of stress and tension.

Audiodo's journey on personalisation of sound
New year – new name: Hearezanz, a Malmö-based startup, has changed their name to Audiodo to become a more internationally recognised brand, at the same time as closing the 2018 with over €1,5 million in an equity round.
The startup's co-founder and CEO is Jan Weber, who had previously devoted his time to studying the impact of sound and music, especially for hearing-impaired individuals, like himself. The two other co-founders are John Philipson and Roger Martinsson, who had worked with improving sound and music with the help of algorithms. Their previous research and developments were used as a core concept for Audiodo. The funding round was led by Almi Invest.
Audiodo's product has already been tested by many people internationally throughout 2017, and it has received lots of positive feedback. The test group included people of different ages and hearing characteristics, and they highlighted that their sound experience was much richer. During the next year the startup started selling their product as a license to manufacturers of headphones.
Recently Jan Weber spoke to Rapidus about joining the market of headphones and speakers with its own developed product. The plan is to get the first Audiodo products to the end users throughout 2019.
– You look at sound in a different way today, and it is changing the market in the foundations, he says to Rapidus.
With the help of an app, the user first has to make a fast hearing test where one has to answer a number of tones. The algorithm then adjusts the sound settings to fit each user individual needs.
– The final result is about having an experience of the sound that is clearly better and personalized. Many assume that hearing is the same during one's lifetime, but the vision changes with age, and the same applies to hearing. Other factors such as noise damage and disease also play a role. So this is a complicated product that we got down in a simple package, says Jan Weber.
The new investment the startup received is planned to cover marketing and brand expenses, as well as product development.
Audiodo currently employs eleven employees and several consultants.

Q: How to modify CMakeLists.txt to customize test target I have complicated project - a big tree, with CMakeLists.txt in each directory.
Once the cmake is done, the Makefile has test target which states
.PHONY test
test:
   $(SHELL) -c
   "$(CTEST) $(CTEST_FLAGS) --test-dir $(BUILD_PATH)"

The problem is that the tests requires some pre-setup (temp directories to be create, environment variables to set, etc).
So if I were working with a clean make, I would just modify the Makefile to this:
.PHONY test
test:
   $(SHELL) -c
   "source $(BUILD_PATH)/setup_tests.sh && \
    $(CTEST) $(CTEST_FLAGS) --test-dir $(BUILD_PATH)"

But the Makefile is created by cmake and I have no idea where to define such changes.
The root CMakeLists.txt has a function call enable_tests(). The src/tests directory has its own CMakeLists.txt but it just defines a bunch of subdirectories with individual tests.
Could someone point me in the direction on how to customize the execution of specific target in the cmake? Or does the ctest has option to run a shell script before all the tests (The -S looks promising but it requires cmake's language script? It does not work with the .sh).

A: The typical CMake way would be to use test properties:
set_tests_properties(mytest PROPERTIES
    ENVIRONMENT "VAR1=val1;VAR2=val2;VAR3=val3"
)

As with running a script to set the environment as opposed to the typical CMake way, you could simply set the command to run that script before the executable:
find_program(BASH_PROGRAM bash)
add_test(NAME mytest COMMAND
    ${BASH_PROGRAM} -c "source \"${CMAKE_BUILD_DIR}/setup_tests.sh\" && $<TARGET_FILE:myexec>"
)

A: The intended way to create this kind of logic would be to define a fixture test for the setup:
For convenience we're simply running the following cmake script allowing us to specify a message in addition to allowing us to specify, if the test should fail, but you could run your own bash script as test instead.
testscript.cmake
#[===[
Params:
    MESSAGE: message to print
    FAIL   : fail the test?
]===]

if(FAIL)
    message(FATAL_ERROR "${MESSAGE}")
else()
    message(STATUS "${MESSAGE}")
endif()

CMakeLists.txt
enable_testing()

# the values of the FAIL parameter could be modified to to test different scenarios...
add_test(NAME Fixture COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -D FAIL:BOOL=0 -D "MESSAGE:STRING=executing fixture" -P ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/testscript.cmake)
add_test(NAME Test COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -D FAIL:BOOL=0 -D "MESSAGE:STRING=executing actual test" -P ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/testscript.cmake)
add_test(NAME Test2 COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -D FAIL:BOOL=1 -D "MESSAGE:STRING=executing test without fixture" -P ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/testscript.cmake)

set_tests_properties(Fixture PROPERTIES FIXTURES_SETUP Setup)
set_tests_properties(Test PROPERTIES FIXTURES_REQUIRED Setup)

Now
ctest -R 'Test$' --verbose

Executes the Fixture test and if this test succeeds, the actual test requested (Test) is executed.
ctest -R Test2 --verbose

Just executes Test2.
You can add cleanup logic for tests in a similar manner.

A:
some pre-setup (temp directories to be create, environment variables to set, etc).

Environment variables are set with set_tests_properties as in the other answer.
You can create a directory with FILE(MAKE_DIRECTORY from CMake
For an advanced journey, you may want to discover test fixtures, which are meant to "prepare" the environment (not environment variables) for tests, for example run a service that tests need.

how to customize the execution of specific target in the cmake?

add_test takes a command, you can run any command you want.

does the ctest has option to run a shell script before all the tests

Why all the tests? Just the tests that need to run that shell - fixtures sound like they are for that.

What is the process for legally obtaining medical cannabis in the State of Maryland?
Please note: Effective December 14, 2017, the Commission extended the administrative hold on out-of-state patient applicants until further notice. As a result of this hold, out-of-state patient applications will not be reviewed at this time, and applicants who live outside the State may not access medical cannabis at Maryland licensed dispensaries. Please see Bulletin: 2018- 002 for additional information.
Once registered, patients must obtain a valid written certification from a provider registered with the Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission. The patient is required by law to have a bona fide provider-patient relationship with the provider and the provider must approve medical cannabis as a treatment option for the patient for a qualifying medical condition. Qualifying medical conditions include cachexia, anorexia, wasting syndrome, severe or chronic pain, severe nausea, seizures, severe or persistent muscle spasms, glaucoma, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), or another chronic medical condition which is severe and for which other treatments have been ineffective.
The Provider Registry is open and the Commission encourages providers to register. Any provider with an active, unrestricted license in good standing with their Associated Board and actively registered to prescribe controlled substances in Maryland is eligible to register with MMCC.
After registering, obtaining a valid written certification from a registered provider, and printing a temporary MMCC Patient ID card, patients are able to visit licensed Maryland dispensaries to purchase medical cannabis.
When purchasing medical cannabis at a dispensary, patients will be required to present their MMCC ID card. The dispensary agent will verify the patient's certification in the Commission's database before conducting any transaction.


I've placed my guess for 1st egg on Jan. 5 @ 5:15 pm owlbox time. Now if Didi will cooperate but she's just standing there with a full belly sleeping.
Last night Hans delivered 1 gopher, 1 rabbit and a mouse.
Hans is stepping up to the plate with 2 gophers and 1 mouse delivered last night. The pantry is full!
WOW! I won the contest! I was the only guess for today so I'll get an 8 x 10 framed pic! WOOHOO! But better yet.........BABY BARNEYS!
I couldn't resist. You know what a sucker I am for this stuff. R4 picked the song.
Right on time... Eggie #2 at 11:37 a.m.
This is so funny. Hans discovers the egg and doesn't exactly know what to do about it.
Visible labor started around 5:17PM with egg probably laid at 5:19PM. Hans stops by for a visit with bonding and third egg is first seen at 5:34PM!
This RAT is so big Hans can't hardly get in the door with it!
So cute how he hauls the MONSTER RAT in over his shoulder.
Didi laid her fourth egg this morning at 6:00 a.m. and revealed it to the world at 6:11 a.m. Right after she laid it Hans blew in and jumped on her back. Not the best timing Mr. Hans.
I opened the site a few minutes after she'd laid her egg and got to record the reveal.
It's a little concerning to me that Hans didn't bring many treats last night. I hope the food supply is not so sparse that he's already having problems finding prey. Let's keep our fingers crossed that won't be a problem this season and he can find a big supply of more of those monster rats.
Didi looked exceptionally proud and beautiful today!!
Today I received a very nice package and card from the OwlChannel owners Owlcamguy and Angowleyez.. I won their contest by guessing when Didi would lay her first egg and got an 8 x 10 framed pic of Didi admiring that 1st egg. THANK YOU for the gift OwlChannel!
These people go above and beyond anything we could ever ask to make sure the viewers enjoy watching the owls as much as they do. They are really AWESOME people.
Didi eating the rat just delivered has some fun with the rat tail!
Hans wanted to put the mousie in the corner but Didi thought it's her job stashing treats, so they couldn't agree, so later after Hans got some fresh air for thinking, he finally gave it to her.

You Never Walk Alone Brings BTS Back to Home Ground
For an extension to an album named Wings, You Never Walk Alone may seem like an odd choice of title: why end a symbolic flight with the metaphor of walking? Yet it is a fitting note on which to conclude a work through which BTS probes their own growth as people and artists, confronting their fears and struggles, and reflecting on their successes and hopes. This extension is BTS returning to familiar ground, reaching back for the hands of those who had helped them build their wings and sent them soaring, and then promising to move forward together.
BTS are no strangers to reaching out with their music; from as early on as their debut days, they've been trying to voice the struggles of youths with releases like "N.O.". But this is the first time that they've taken this underlying goal as an overt theme, and expressed messages of consolation and comfort on top of presenting the tangle of emotions and thoughts that come with youth and growth.
In order to reach out, the message has to be clear. The tracks off You Never Walk Alone—three new, one a full version of the interlude that rounded off Wings—feature lyrics written in plain but evocative language. They are woven together by a sense of movement: "I'll come to meet you," Jungkook sings in "Spring Day"; "If you can't fly, then run / If you can't run, then walk / If you can't walk, then crawl," the lyrics of "Not Today" urge, a set of metaphors echoed in "A Supplementary Story: You Never Walk Alone". "Outro: Wings", in line with its title, adopts rhetoric related to flying.
Lyrics are often the weakest link of K-pop releases, but it is an area that BTS has consistently invested effort in. The lyricists of the group, mainly Rap Monster and Suga, are fully capable of lyrics packed with double meanings and layered references, as a look at their numerous cyphers and even fun, catchy hits like "Am I Wrong" will confirm. The turn towards simple language, therefore, is a matter of deliberate artistic choice in order to convey intellectually and emotionally accessible lyrics.
In "Spring Day", familiar metaphors of winter and spring, snow and flowers, night and day, transform into a nuanced intermingling of longing and hope. There is a poetic sensibility to certain lines that are so precise in their choice of image and evocation of feelings:
Drifting in the empty air
Like tiny dust
If I were that snow
I would've been able to reach you a little faster
Repetitions and parallelisms structure the expressions of yearning throughout the song. These techniques also make the subtle promise, in the form of a dialogue between V's and Jungkook's verses (as observed by a fan on Twitter), additionally moving:
How long must I wait
How many more nights must I stay up
So that I'll be able to see you, able to see you
So that I'll be able to meet you, able to meet you
If you wait just a little
If you just stay up a few more nights
I'll come to meet you, I'll come to meet you
I'll come pick you up, I'll come pick you up
Simple though they may be, the lyrics strikingly capture the mixed feelings of resentment at a friend leaving—whether a simple physical and emotional separation, or one caused by death is left open—self-blame, and longing, but also promise and hope.
Ideas of yesterday, today, and tomorrow are often evoked in songs. Recognising that the future, fraught with uncertainty, is a frightening thing to confront and not always possible to control, "Not Today", in a "Fire" meets "2! 3!" style, is a call to focus simply on what you can do in the here and now:
All the underdogs in the world
A day may come when we lose
But it is not today
Today we fight!
Like "Spring Day", "Not Today" does not shy away from acknowledging the harshness and difficulty of reality. It is this commitment to foregrounding struggles, coupled with an emphasis on the strength that mutual support brings ("Trust me, who is next to you / [I] trust you, who is next to me"), that make the song's rallying cry so powerful.
References to BTS's earlier material are also scattered throughout: the falling flowers an echo of "I Need U", J-Hope's call for baepsaes to put their "hands up", and "Burn it up!" as a clear nod towards "Fire". "Spring Day" adds to this with its image of blooming cherry blossoms, while "You Never Walk Alone" harks back to the line, "If we are together, we can smile", from "화양연화 on stage : prologue". While the repetition of such motifs were used to explore the theme of youth throughout "The Most Beautiful Moment in Life" cycle, here, it offers a reminder of the shared history that BTS and their fans carry with them even as they move forward into the future.
Cohesive as You Never Walk Alone is in terms of lyrics, the musical aspect of the songs is more of a mixed bag. As a whole, the new tracks express BTS's colour as a group, but they continue the bouncing between genres that we see in Wings. The solo tracks on Wings were arranged in a way that made for smoother transitions than the group releases, so the album managed to maintain an overall flow despite dipping into different sounds. The extension, however, tilts that balance. On one hand, the slower pace of "2! 3!" melts into the dreamy opening of "Spring Day", and the high note that "Not Today" ends on leads perfectly into the soaring opening of "Outro: Wings". On the other, the switches from "Spring Day" to "Not Today" and from the outro to "You Never Walk Alone" cause some tonal whiplash.
The production of You Never Walk Alone is not quite on par with their previous repackage, The Most Beautiful Moment in Life: Young Forever, but it is nevertheless characterised by the group's willingness to push towards new styles, or at least build on their existing sounds. "Spring Day" steps away from the usual fast tempo of BTS's usual title tracks, tapping into rock with its bassline and guitar instrumentals, and even some acapella elements in the harmonisation of the melody lines.
One of my favourite features of BTS's instrumentation is the ability to create tangible images of space—the chorus of "I Need U" is a wandering around decrepit back alleys, the opening of "Run" a flock of birds fluttering into the distance, and the synths that introduce "Outro: Wings" pair with Jungkook's melody to produce a feeling of soaring into the sky. The reverbs of the "Spring Day" opening chords and a faint whirring synth in the background instantly evoke the image of a travelling train, with the listener looking out the window on a vast landscape.
Split sentiments have been expressed regarding a particular electronic sample that kicks in during Jimin's first verse after Rap Monster's opening lines, and becomes more obvious during the chorus. It certainly adds momentum and an element of interest for what would otherwise be a purer indie folk/pop band sound. It also seems to function as a disrupting factor, producing a grating feeling that is in line with the overwhelming longing expressed in the lyrics ("I miss you, I miss you"). But it tends to crowd out the vocals and the beautiful harmonisation from J-Hope layered below the melody line. The song will not be the same if that particular sample were removed, but it might have benefited from that sample being toned down to allow a more balanced and clean sound to emerge.
Musically, "Not Today", unlike "Spring Day", doesn't step away from BTS's earlier releases; it's very much a hype song in the vein of "Fire". The flow of the song isn't as dynamic as the latter, but there's something curiously fiery about the recurring beat that dips and swings back upwards like flames blazing down a trail. Jungkook's hook of "Ready your guns, aim, fire" threw me off with its uncanny resemblance to G-Dragon's rapping (which I'm not a particular fan of), but there is an irreverent charm to it that brings out the song's tone of anarchy. It's a tone that characterised a lot of BTS's music from their early days, making "Not Today" a very welcome return to their hip hop roots amidst the experimentation of the album at large.
An EDM dance break and an addition of a rap verse by J-Hope complete "Outro: Wings" from its original form as an interlude, and "You Never Walk Alone" winds the album down on a more mellow, sweet note, recalling some of BTS's earlier laid-back B-sides like "24/7 = Heaven". It doesn't make as strong of an impression as the other tracks, but the production quality shines through the balanced sound and interesting details like the heartbeat at the start, the synths that pipe and patter below Suga's and J-Hope's rap verses, and a softly echoing synth that sounds like a bird cooing.
Despite the unevenness in flow and production quality, what holds You Never Walk Alone together and makes it a cut above the rest is, undoubtedly, the force of the album's sincerity. The choice of theme and how it is carried through is testament to BTS's commitment to connecting with themselves and the world through their music. Above all, there is a sense of thematic unity: of artist and fan, struggles and hopes, and past, present, and future. Wings may have sent BTS soaring, but You Never Walk Alone marks their timely return to home ground to prepare for greater heights.
Album Rating: 4.8/5 (full album), 4.5/5 (extension only)

I am getting an error (reason code = 05190050) when I am trying to execute the command TSO OMVS in the TSO command line.
I figured out that the problem occurs because there is no user directoy existing. I was trying to create a user direcoty in OMVS but I need to get OMVS running first. How can I create a user directory without OMVS?

Contact your security support. I'm not certain about this, but I think you need an OMVS segment for your userid (if your site uses RACF) or the equivalent if your site uses an alternate security product like Top Secret or ACF2. Part of OMVS authorization is a "home directory." Another possibility is the "home directory" was not created. The directory name in your message looks like a "home directory."
As was mentioned, contact your site support group. If your site uses RACF, you MUST have an OMVS segment with a valid home directory. I suspect your home directory does not exist -- which would definitely be a problem for your site support group. The issue could be that /u/msmith does not exist, or it could be that /u/msmith does exist but your TSO user id does not have access to the directory, or it could be that /u does not allow you to access that directory (which would prevent you from getting to /u/msmith) ... etc. Your site support group can sort out the issue(s) and resolve the problem -- there's not really anything you can do unless you have authority to change your RACF (or other security package) profile.
Try to use the ISHELL command specifying your home dir. ISHELL will ask you if you want to create it (even for a homedir I think). Of course this only works if you have the rights to do so.
ISHELL works, well sort-of on "that" system, and gets you into(?) OMVS, need to explore further to see if we can restore it somehow, if you have more experience with it, PM me!
I'm not really a USS person. I had another thought - you might try BPXBATCH like below. Not sure if that requires an OMVS segment though.


Holy Cross defeated Jesuit 41-29 on January 24th. No one can take the victory from the Tigers, who won eight of the 14 matches, including five pins and two major decisions. They had the stronger team on the mat that night, but that took some adjustiments.
The Tigers were without Spencer Reyes, who was sidelined for over a month due to concussion protocols, from December 30th (after the Prep Slam) to February 3rd (Catholic League Championship). That forced the Tigers to rearrange their line-up in the heavier weights. Logan Heffner dropped to 182 lbs. from the 195 lbs. in which he competed up to the Prep Slam. Ryan Doody also moved down, from 220 lbs. to 195 lbs. This left a gap at 220 lbs. for the Tigers, but it was been filled very nicely by eighth-grader Cole Baiamonte, who has posted a 22-9 record over the season, and is 11-8 as a varsity starter. Brady Maillet remained at 285 lbs. for the Tigers.
On the Jesuit side injuries made themselves known during the match. Luke Eccles, at 132 lbs., scored an 11-3 major decision over Logan LaCoste in the Louisiana Classic. In the dual meet at 132 lbs., LaCoste pinned Patrick McConnell in the second period. Eccles may have provided the Blue Jays with an eight-to-12-point swing had he participated. (The good news on Eccles is that after his unfortunate accident at the Louisiana Classic and his resulting hospital stay, he looked fit and said he would be ready for the state championships.) At 138 lbs. Adam Larriviere, who has not been on the mat since January 19th, may also be ready come the trip to Bossier City. In the dual meet the Tiger's Mason Montalbano scored a 9-0 major decision over Jack Ehrhardt. In the Louisiana Classic Larriviere defeated Macaluso by an 8-0 major decision. That could have been an 8-point swing for Jesuit.
Holy Cross had some potential point swings as well. Had Reyes participated at 170 lbs., the Tigers probably still would have won at that weight class (and perhaps scored six points rather than three). Reyes probably would have competed at 182 lbs., as at 170 lbs. the Tigers' Caden Mumme had already defeated Jesuit's Darren Ferrier. Had Jesuit's Thomas Arseneaux competed at 182 lbs., the outcome would be akin to a coin toss against Reyes, as they have not met this season. But Arseneaux went 195 lbs., at which he pinned Ryan Doody, who regularly competes at 220 lbs. Based on results versus common opponents, Arseneaux probably would have scored a fall had Hayden Brodnax wrestled at 195 lbs. for the Tigers. That would have allowed Doody to compete at 220 lbs., and his record indicates a pin over Kieff would be likely. That would be a nine-point swing for the Tigers.
With the hypothetical point swings cited above, Holy Cross would have still won the match 41-36, but only a three-point difference for Jesuit - a pin rather than a regular decision - would have meant a one-point win for the Blue Jays.
The Tigers are a solid bet to place second at the state championships, in the event of a Brother Martin meltdown, but never, never, count the Blue Jays out come a state championship tournament.
Simple match notes include that it took a last-second escape for Eli Larriviere to eke by Brady Butler 5-4. The Blue Jays' James Hotard, wrestling 12 pounds over his regular weight class of 170 lbs., scored the first takedown on Logan Heffner. However, as "game" as he was, Hotard then tried a move that required the 12 pounds to work, which led to his fall by Heffner.
It may not mean a thing, but at the Catholic League Championships the Tigers wrestled Mumme at 160 lbs., Reyes at 170 lbs., Anthony Sciambre at 182 lbs., Hefner at 195 lbs. and Baiamonte, rather than Doody, at 220 lbs. The Blue Jays put Evan Queyrouze at 145 lbs. (probably giving Eli Larriviere a rest), Hotard back at 170 lbs., Arseneaux back at 182 lbs., Jack Grady at 195 lbs., Perry Ganci back at 220 lbs. and Cyril Melville at 285 lbs.

I'm really not doing so well. Needing to ask for food grant assistance every few days. Not having a fridge to store stuff in, so eating oddly. Running out of food grant.
Bang and scream and squarp from out my window, fairly constantly. Worse now, with warmer weather meaning I need to keep windows open. Unable to get undisturbed sleep.
It is about it being costly to punish. If I need peace and quiet and someone else likes to bang bang bang then... Who is going to stop them? Who has the power to take the hammer or the drum sticks or whatever away? What are the chances that that would be sufficient, or that the person would retaliate in some way. Buy something else to bang with and to bang louder?
Most people here aren't co-operative. THey aren't interested in fair bargains. They aren't interested in the idea of inter-personal interaction as being of mutual benefit. They start out with this idea that the smartest or most rational or whatever position is... Psychopathic. Basically. Take what you can for as long as you can because you can hurrah! Then when that seems to be failing you (as the people catch on) move away and rinse and repeat somewhere new.
Which would be a... Way to live. I guess. If you are interested in living like the brutes and savages.
Then you need... Something... TO try and keep them out of certain other neighbourhoods.
I feel... Violated. My physical person. From the vibrations / noises. I don't feel that I have my own space when it's full of other peoples vibrations / noises. It feels like an assault on my physical person. It drives me to... Want to shoot myself in the head. Or them... HOnestly... It drives me insane. Then lack of sleep... I suppose people want to be locked up half the time because they just want a place where they can get some f*ck*ng sleep without being interfered with by the bullies and / or insensitive / insensible... homo sapiens... in their community.
I'm tired of being targeted as someone who would make good bait. TO keep the bullies occupied.
We are the most experimented on population in the world. With out alcohol laws... Breeding replaceable homo sapiens parts. A population of them. On which we can trial our this and our that. Otherwise... Strategic retreat. There really is... NOthing here, at all.
I don't know what it is. Why things are so horrible here. Pretty f*ck*ng sure I"m not at all interested in living, like this.
I don't understand why I'm always expected to.
I don't like homo sapiens very much, at all. Nasty things.
