Matt's Picks: Week of March 17th

I’ll be honest; it’s not usually the major releases each week that I’m the most excited for, but for the week of 3/17 that’s a bit different. We’ve got some titles being released on 3/19 and some on 3/22, making this week even more awesome! What is better than two days of new releases?
Music
Justin Timberlake will be releasing this third album, The 20/20 Experience. This is the first new material we’ve heard from JT since 2006. For anyone that has read some of my other past picks, this is probably a release you weren’t expecting me to highlight. I’m a bit surprised myself, but after watching him perform some of his new songs, “Suit & Tie” and “Mirrors,” on various shows over the past month or so, I’m really looking forward to this album! Who knows, I may even throw on a suit & tie to head into Best Buy on Tuesday to get my copy!
Low will be releasing their tenth album, The Invisible Way. This Duluth, MN band has been around since 1993, and has a very mellow and minimalist sound, with great vocal harmonies. Being a Minnesota native I’ll admit I’m a bit partial to bands from my home state, although I hadn’t heard much of their music until their 2007 release, Drums and Guns. Since then I’ve been lucky enough to see them perform live, and I can’t wait to hear this new release.
Marnie Stern will be releasing her fourth album, The Chronicles of Marnia. She’s got a unique rock sound bordering on experimental, but it’s a sound that I really enjoy. I first heard her with her second album that has a title that is a bit of a mouthful. Ready for it? This Is It and I Am It and You Are It and So Is That and He Is It and She Is It and It Is It and Tha.... Now that you’re done processing that, head on over to BestBuy.com and check out some samples from her first album, In Advance of the Broken Arm.
Movies
Les Miserables, the three-time Academy Award winner, will be hitting DVD, Blu-ray, and Exclusive Steelbook Blu-ray on Friday, 3/22. Starring, Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe and Anne Hathoway, it is a musical film based on the musical play of the same name, which is based on the Victor Hugo novel. I never got around to seeing this film in theaters, so I’m really excited for its release. This film is PG-13, and you can view the trailer here.
This Is 40, a Judd Apatow comedy, will also be released on 3/22. This film stars Paul Rudd, Leslie Mann, Maude Apatow, and Jason Segel. Advertised as “The Sort-of Sequel to Knocked Up,” it takes a look at the lives of Pete (Rudd) and Debbie (Mann) a few years after the events of Knocked Up. As a fan of many other Apatow films, I’m definitely going to check this one out. It will be available on DVD and Blu-ray, and is rated R. You can view the trailer here.
What is everybody else looking forward to? Did anyone pick up any other great new releases recently?

Matt, you left out the two best music releases for this week! The new Stone Sour and Drowning Pool albums are pretty awesome.

Both have a good mix of hard rock and alternative. Definitely recommend the song "Bleed With Me" off of the Resilience album as it's become a personal favorite. Never really kept up with them after their original album with "Bodies", but I'm going to have to go back and listen to the rest of their music if they've kept up this sound for so many years.
And yeah...movie releases were really light this week. Nothing good for me. "A Certain Scientific Railgun" (anime) releases next Tuesday, though. Will pick that one up.

Problems with Optimize Window Matte Color Picker

Every time I try to open the Optimize Window's Matte Color
Picker when the palette is docked to the right side of the screen,
the color picker opens off screen so that I can't see it. I have to
move the palette to the center on my monitor to see the color
picker. Anyone else having this problem?

Matte Color Solid and Boris Vector Shape match for me. Matte Color does not.
I could not get the colors to match with the eyedropper. I could not figure out what was going on with the eyedroppper.
When I used the crayon selector, my results were the same as when I manually entered a set of numbers
I'm doing this test on my laptop, looking at the canvas, DV sequence.
By looking at the internal vectorscope and waveform I could see that the brightness and saturation were not matching. Hue seemed to be right on.
By lowering brightness and increasing the saturation on Matte Color I was able match it to the other. But as Zeb points out, this visual match required different HSB values.
Play with the Boris Vector Shape if you haven't. Cool.

Matt's Picks: March 12th Releases

Hello again all my fellow music and movie fanatics! I apologize for not getting my picks up for last week, but I trust everyone was able to find something they wanted with all of the great releases. March 12th is a pretty exciting day for new releases, and here is what I'm most excited about...
Music
David Bowie is back with his first release in ten years and his 24th album, The Next Day. He unexpectedly announced the existence of this album only two short months ago, and has since released two singles, “Where Are We Now?” and “The Stars (Are Out Tonight),” to tide everyone over. I know I couldn’t believe it when I first heard he would be releasing a new album, and I am extremely excited to finally get to hear it! It will also be available in a Deluxe Edition.
My Bloody Valentine’s third album, mbv, and first release in 22 years will also be made available on 3/12. This album was released by the band themselves last month, but it is finally going to be available on a wider scale, including on BestBuy.com. This Irish band had a very large impact in creating the “shoegaze” subgenre, and released what is now their iconic album, Loveless, in 1991. They have been relatively quiet ever since then, so I know any fan of theirs was shocked when this album was announced.
Biffy Clyro will be releasing their sixth album, Opposites. This Scottish rock band has actually been around for quite a while, but I didn’t first hear about them until they released their fourth album, Puzzle. This was followed up by Only Revolutions, which had many great songs like “The Captain,” “The Golden Rule,” and “Mountains.” Those two albums together got me hooked! For this new release, they put out the single “Black Chandelier” a while ago which has helped to keep my interest peaked until this release is finally out.
Movies
Sound City: Real to Reel is a documentary that was directed by Dave Grohl about the history of Sound City Studios, a famous Los Angeles recording studio. This studio is where so many legendary artists such as Fleetwood Mac, Neil Young, Rick Springfield, Tom Petty, and Nirvana recorded albums. This documentary features interviews and performances from many of the musicians that recorded there, including some collaborations that may be unexpected. This movie will be available on Blu-ray and DVD, and will also have a soundtrack. You can view the trailer here.
This Must Be the Place stars Sean Penn, Frances McDormand, and Judd Hirsch. It follows the story of Cheyenne (Penn) who is a former rock star living in Ireland that journeys back to New York to be with his father during his final hours. Cheyenne learns the real and troubling details of his father’s life during World War II, and sets off on a journey to find those responsible. This film will be available on Blu-ray and DVD, and you can view the trailer here. This film is rated R.
Smashed is a story of a married couple who both have a drinking problem, and their marriage is put to the test when one of them decides to get sober. It stars Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Aaron Paul, Octavia Spencer, Nick Offerman, and Megan Mulally. It will be available on Blu-ray and DVD, and you can view the trailer here. This film is rated R.

Matt's Picks: April 2nd Releases

Music
There are some great music releases this week that I've been looking forward to for a while and I hope everyone will give them a bit of a listen. Rilo Kiley and Telekinesis are bands that I've had quite a bit of exposure to over the years, while The Besnard Lakes are a band that I've heard before, but haven't really given them the attention they deserve. I think I'll have to change that with their new album.
Rilo Kiley will be releasing a compilation of rarities and previously unreleased recordings on an album called, Rkives. This will be the first we’ve heard from them since 2007’s, Under the Blacklight, and as a fan of pretty much anything Jenny Lewis touches I have to say that I’m looking forward to hearing these songs. If you haven’t heard any of their past releases, I’d highly recommend checking out the samples we have up on BestBuy.com from their previous albums. Rkives will also be releasing on vinyl later this month.
Telekinesis will be releasing their third album, Dormarion. I first heard this one-man-band with the 2011 release, 12 Desperate Straight Lines, and just couldn’t get enough of songs like “Car Crash” and “Gotta Get It Right Now.” From what I’ve heard with the new song, “Ghosts and Creatures,” the new album may be a bit different from the short and infectiously upbeat songs from the last album, but I’ll certainly be giving it a listen. Dormarion will also be released on vinyl, and go ahead and check out the samples from some previous albums here.
The Besnard Lakes will be releasing their fourth album, Until in Excess, Imperceptible UFO. This Canadian atmospheric rock band has received a lot of praise from critics in their home country, and even had two of their albums nominated for the Polaris Music Prize. If you’re not familiar with what that award represents or any of the The Besnard Lakes’ music, I highly recommend you check it out and also take a listen to the samples of their second album, The Besnard Lakes Are the Dark Horse. You can view their other releases on BestBuy.com here.
Movies
It’s rare when there aren’t any movie releases that I’m really looking forward to, but that’s kind of where I’m at for this week. Instead of looking at 4/2 releases, let’s look ahead to 4/16 when Django Unchained will be released. We’ve still got some great pre-order exclusives available, which include the ability to watch the movie early! You can find additional details about these offers here.

Matt's Picks: February 5th Releases

Here we are at the end of another week, and I've prepared another list to hopefully get everyone excited for the new releases coming out on February 5th. Don't forget to also check out our Movies and Music pages on BestBuy.com for all of our current promotions!
I had a really hard time choosing my favorite music releases for February 5th. There are so many great albums coming out next week that I just couldn’t narrow them down, so here are six that I am really excited about.
Music
EELS is the musical brainchild of the front man who simply goes by the name, E. The band started out as more of a solo project for E, but has transformed into a larger band that has included many other members over the years. Between all of these projects, Wonderful, Glorious will be their 15th studio release. I didn’t really know about EELS until a couple of years ago when they released Hombre Lobo and I first heard the song “Prizefighter,” but I’ve been listening to them ever since and I’m looking forward to this new album.
Frightened Rabbit is a great Scottish band that will be releasing their fourth studio album, Pedestrian Verse. You may not think you know who they are, but you may have heard their song “Good Arms vs. Bad Arms” in the shows Grey’s Anatomy and One Tree Hill. I first heard them on their second album, The Midnight Organ Fight, with their song “The Modern Leper.” After hearing their new song, “The Woodpile,” I can’t wait to hear what the rest of the new album has to offer.
Guards will be releasing their debut album, In Guards We Trust. I first heard of Guards because their lead singer is the sister of the lead singer from the band Cults, whose self-titled debut is still one of my favorite albums from the last couple of years. After hearing a couple of tracks from this album and really enjoying them, we’ll see if it stays at the top of my list for as long as Cults’ album has.
Jim James of My Morning Jacket fame will be releasing his first solo album, Regions of Light and Sound of God. Being a My Morning Jacket fan for some time now, I’m hoping James uses this solo album as an opportunity to explore a new musical direction. I’ve heard that he plays all of the instruments himself on this album.
Thao & The Get Down Stay Down will be releasing her third album, We the Common. With her energetic folk-rock sound, Thao is releasing this album after her very well-received sophomore album, Know Better Learn Faster. That is the album that first caught my attention, and I’m looking forward to some new material.
Unknown Mortal Orchestra will be releasing their aptly titled second album, II. With their critically acclaimed self-titled debut being released less than two years ago, I can’t wait to finally hear this new one in its entirety.
Movies
Celeste and Jesse Forever is a quirky romantic comedy that stars Rashida Jones and Andy Samberg as Celeste and Jesse. It is the story of the two of them going through a divorce and trying to still maintain their friendship. Celeste and Jesse have been best friends since high school so they don’t think it’ll be a problem to still be friends after their divorce, but this proves to be harder than they thought once Jesse ends up in a new relationship. You can view the trailer here.
A Late Quartet is the story of the struggles that a string quartet that has been together for 25 years faces after learning that their oldest member must retire due to illness. It stars Christopher Walken, Catherine Keener, and Philip Seymour Hoffman. This movie first caught my attention since Philip Seymour Hoffman is in it, and after seeing the trailer I knew it was a movie that I had to see. You can watch the trailer here.
Animaniacs was a great animated TV series that aired from 1993 to 1998, and the Volume 4 DVD set will be released on February 5th. This series followed the wacky adventures of siblings Yakko, Wakko, and Dot, and for anyone that was a fan of this back when it was on, this is a must have to add to your collection.

On March 17th I downloaded a community toolbar and conduit engine to watch CNN live TV. I could not click "finish" and Firefox seized up...despite uninstalling and re-installing, it emains frozen.

I wanted to watch CNN live Tv on my computer and I was asked to download "The Radio TV 1.3 Community Toolbar". When I did that, a "Conduit Engine" was attached to the toolbar. I couldn't click the "finish" button because everything seized up. I could do nothing. I uninstalled Firefox and re-installed it...the Community Toolbar and Conduit engine screen popped up just by clicking anywhere on the Firefox homepage...and of course it seized up again. I tried to get help from Bell (my ISP) but they were unable to solve. Any ideas???

week of March 17th and into early April, and would love to meet
with you to learn about your work.
A session typically lasts about 2 hours, and during that
time, we’ll ask you to walk us through some of the processes
you go through on a day-to-day, project-to-project basis. We are
interested in getting a better understanding of how you work, your
approach to projects, and how we can improve our products to meet
your needs.

FYI, this is a poorly worded set of possible answers:
8. How much experience do you have using the following technologies?
I’ve never heard of that technology
I’ve investigated that technology but never used it professionally
I’ve spent some time working with that technology
I am comfortable using that technology
I have used that technology on a daily basis for less than 1 year
I have used that technology on a daily basis for more than 1 year
For a number of these technologies, I've heard of them but have not been inclined to investigate, which seems like it would be useful info to Adobe.

HT201412 I cannot open the month of March 2013 in my iPad3 calendar. I can however see it in the year view for 2013 and I can view the daily and weekly calendars for March 2013. Any ideas what has gone wrong ? Thanks

I have a new iPad3 and have found I cannot open the month of March 2013 when I tap on it. All other months open OK ! I can see March 2013 in the yearly view and I can open the individual days, and weeks, of March 2013 but I cannot see the whole month in the monthly view. When I try to open the monthly view for March 2013 it returns me to the start screen which shows all the apps etc and closes the Calendar app. Any guidance of what is going wrong and how it can be corrected. Thanks !

Don't worry we have to start somewhere. Feel free to post your questions here, we learn from each other.

Calendar doesn't work for March 2014

I am trying to set a recurring event for March 27, 28, 29, from 10 am to 6 pm.
March 27 is ok. March 28 only goes to 4 pm. March 29 goes to 6 pm. This is in month view.
In week view, march 27 is set for 10-6. But then there is another march 27 from 10-4.
There is no time set for March 28, and March 29 is missing completely. It skips that Saturday.
In day view, march 27 is set for 10-6, nothing set for March 28, and set for March 29 from 10-6.
I have restarted the iPad but that does not fix the problem. I can't reinstall the app because it is part of iOS 7.
So how do I fix this?

Has anyone tried this? Does it work for you?

Where can I get a description of the Usage Report sent weekly?

I'm a little confused by the weekly Usage Report, e.g. what's the difference between the "DownloadTrack" and "DownloadTracks" numbers? There's only one worksheet titled "Tracks" and the numbers don't add up accordingly.
For example:
on my summary report for the week of March 11:
DownloadTrack = 1
DownloadTracks = 3
on the detailed Tracks worksheet, there are three tracks identified
and on my summary report for the week of March 4:
DownloadTrack = 2
DownloadTracks = 2
on the detailed Tracks worksheet, there are shown two different tracks downloaded with a total viewing of three
So if someone can either explain to me what each stat is showing, or where I can get some documentation I'd be grateful.

How to display week wise data in ssrs report

Hi,
I want my report to fetch data from Financial year starting to till date.
i.e Apr 2013 to till date.
till date means Today() minus 8 days and @Fromdate includes last week of march also
i.e Mar 29 2013 to Apr 4 2013 - this week data will also be included
So data from Mar 29 2013 - Apr 4 2013 to today() minus 8 days need to be displayed
How to fetch data for this.
Pls advise.The column corresponding to this looks like "2013-11-01 ~~ 2013 - 11- 07"

Hi, Well your requirement is very vague. I would probably have you create a calendar table according to your requirements and use it in your dataset. If you could better explain this with an example we could help you a lot better.
Hope this helps.......

How to get Current week and No of Weeks for each quarter!!

Hi,
As a part of report development I have to derive Current week and No.of Weeks in Curreny Query. Based on these information I have to calculate Phased target (Calculated KYF).
Phased target = (Target for Quarter / No of weeks in Current Quarter) X Current Week.
We have to derive Current Quarter and Current week from Customer Exit (From Invoice date, which is an entry by Users at report level).
My questions are:
1) We have to derive Two Restricted key figures (by Calweek) for derving No of weeks for Currnet Quarter and Current week in Query level. Based on this info, we have to derive Calculated kef figure for Phased target.
2) And the output is 6 (ex:- 132008) char length for Current week and we have to pick Week info only and we have to populate RKF created for Current week. How we can achieve this.
3) Regarding the No of weeks per for current quarter, we are writing Customer exit to determine Quarter and no of weeks, but how to bring this info in query level.
4) Is there any standard code available (SAP Exit) to find Current week and No of Weeks in Current quarter.
Regards,
Suresh Molli

Hi Venkat Molli,
Follow the below step for the doing the same:
1. Create a customer exit variable on calweek.
2. Restrict the created variable for respective info object.
3. To Populate the data write code in CMOD.
     in enhancement function module: EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001 -> in Include ZXRSRU01 write the below code:
WHEN '<variable name>'.
     IF i_step = 1.
      CLEAR l_s_range.
      CALL FUNCTION 'RSVAREXIT_0P_CWEEK'
        IMPORTING
          e_t_range = lt_week.
      READ TABLE lt_week INTO l_s_range1 INDEX 1.
      v_last_week = l_s_range1-low+4(2).
      v_last_week = v_last_week - 1.
      l_s_range1-low+4(2) = v_last_week.
      l_s_range-low      = l_s_range1-low.
      l_s_range-sign     = 'I'.
      l_s_range-opt      = 'EQ'.
      APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
    ENDIF.
4. Execute the report.
I hope you can handle you issue now.
Assign points if it is helpful.
Regards,
S P.

Activation date: March 19th and still without broa...

Hiya,
I'm really fed up now. I placed an order for phone and broadband on March 10th. I received BT hub after couple days but I haven't got any confirmation about activation date at first. Then I was told both will be activated on March 17th.. On March 17th I called customer service and I was told there's a problem with my order, no wonder.. Until then I haven't even gotten a phone number.. Finally someone from customer service was able to tell me what my number was but I was told I must wait 48 hours to get it activated..
Next day I received an email with completely different number and activation date scheduled on March 19th.. This was just ridiculous! But I waited until then just to find out that they activated only phone. I keep calling customer service since then and every time I hear the same story: there's a problem with the exchange, they will activate it but I need to wait 48 hours! I'm not even talking about false promises that someone from technical team will get in touch with me!
I'm really fed up right now and so close to cancel whole thing! I've never experienced such a bad customer service and I've never been that ignored in my entire life!

Hello Joapoa welcome to thre Forum I wish it was in more positive circumstances.
This sounds like a really disapointing and frustrating experience. I appreciate you have said now that you have cancelled your order and could as we speak already be with another provider.
Should you wish to place an order again I would like to help. If not please accept my apologies for the experience you have had.
You can contact me at [email protected]
Cheers
