The egg diet, also referred to as boiled egg diet in some quarters, has been gaining popularity over the years. This is attributed to true accounts of eminent people and celebrities who have claimed to successfully lose weight thanks to this effective diet. To name a few, Adrian Brody shed 30 pounds in a span of 6 weeks while Charles Saatchi dropped 60 pounds in ten months by eating 9 eggs each single day.
How much do you need for this diet?
The obvious meaning of this diet is total depending on eggs for your meals. While this may be right, it does not mean that you only have to eat eggs for it to be an egg diet. There are variations of the diet (as will be discussed later). In a nutshell, this is a low-carb diet potentially known to be effective in losing weight.
1. Extreme egg dieting: this one is exclusively feeding on hard boiled eggs for breakfast, lunch and supper. The only other thing allowed is drinking a lot of still water. This diet will result into serious deprivation of energy and total lack of fiber in your diet.
2. Egg + grapefruit dieting: just like the name suggests, you will rely on both eggs and grapefruits in your meals. Each meal will have eggs and half piece of grapefruit. It borrows a lot from the traditional egg diet as will be discussed below.
3. Traditional egg dieting: this is the commonly followed form of egg diet. To a larger extent it can be said to be a variation of the renowned Atkins diet. The meals revolve around eggs, lean proteins such as fish and chicken; and low carb vegetables.
The egg diet plan is strictly on consumption of low or no carbs at all. As such, physical exercise will not be a requirement. Besides, many people will find it extremely difficult to engage in physical activities due to the serious deprivation of energy.
Costs and expenses are always an issue when it comes to following healthy and weight loss diets. Some of such diets are prohibitively expensive. However, with the egg diet you need not worry about how much you will be spending. Overall, you will need a small budget to get eggs, lean proteins and the few fresh vegetables. This is one of the most affordable weight loss diets and everyone can afford it. The fact that you should only be on it for a week makes it even financially viable since you will have a break once your week is done.
If you are ready to try egg diet then you would need a heads up of where and how to begin. From experience and testimonies, you can lose any amount of weight if you follow this diet to the letter. Be warned that you should not adhere to this diet for more than a week. You can skip one or two weeks before you try once more.
Lunch: fresh fruits (you can have them as you wish i.e. as whole or juice). Take as much as what makes you full.
For any of these, you should not take more than 3 cups in a day. For still water you can drink as much as your body can take.
Everyone wants results and the actual thing that would get you into egg diet would be to achieve your health goals. So, what are the results you expect once you begin on this diet?
· Losing fat: if there is one effective way of losing fat then the egg diet is second to none. Taking eggs greatly reduces the intake of calories and at end of it all you will be taking less fat. Eggs are more satiating than any other known source of nutrition: they keep you full for long and kill any sort of craving for high-calorie foods. By streamlining metabolism, the diet will also increase the rate of burning fat in your body.
· Losing of water weight: one of the immediate results you will get from egg diet plan is shedding water weight. This is because eggs contain low carbs and much of body water is lost during the depletion of glycogen. Many people are excited over this thinking that they have lost fat. But no, this is water weight that comes first. Losing fat comes at a later stage.
· A slump in physical activity: with all low-carb diets comes the temporary decrease in energy. Once you begin on egg diet the body will be exposed to less glucose, which is the most efficient way to give your body the energy it requires. In its stead fats will be burned to provide energy and this is a less-efficient way to supply the body with energy. If you are an athlete this is not the best choice of a diet. For most people the reduction in physical performance is not a big issue. Once you resume on a normal diet your energy will be back.
· Preserving lean mass of the body: egg diet has one important advantage over the other weight loss diets you may have heard of. This advantage is the ability to keep intact your body's lean mass. The presence of 100% score of eggs in the digestible nutrition scale makes them perfect to guard any adverse depreciation of the crucial body lean muscles.
· Continuous consumption of eggs will lead to flatulence, bad breath and constipation.
Apart from these few setbacks, the diet is perfect for your loss weight needs and you should give it a try.
Whether or not to try the egg diet, that's up to you. You have already read on the benefits and shortcomings you should expect. But be advised that there are only few effective weight loss diets out there. When you see one diet, said to be effective in controlling weight gain, you should not hesitate to give it some considerations.


A Bright Autumn – What is Style?
It is going to be a bright and cosy autumn 2015 if Zambesi and World have their way. Showcasing their upcoming collections at the recent Britomart Fashion Sessions, Zambezi was all about sharing the colour stage with their usual prominent black mixed with mauve and royal blue. I personally loved the Tulip Coat and would love one of the XXXV blankets.
World on the other hand, were all a-light, thanks to the models parading down the catwalk with a delicately poised bulb shining brightly, while others were wearing rabbit ears. Neon tights with bold bright colours – a signature dish that World does well reminds us that their clothes aren't for the faint hearted. Their ability to mix and match colours never ceases to amaze me.
I love the fact that much of the collection is in store already, so no waiting round. With that hint of autumn in the air and day-light saving coming to an end, it could be perfect timing for something new.
Very nice clothes and good to see some colour there, but I do feel hot just looking at them! No such thing as a hint of autumn here in QLD. Days in the 30's are still well and truly with us, as is the seemingly eternal summer wardrobe, although the shops are doing their best to convince us we want warm things and coats!
Its a little that way here in NZ – still pretty warm, and struggling thinking it will soon be time to put away the summer wardrobe, and get out the winter clothes. You are so lucky to live somewhere constantly warm.

OU Awarded $2.5 Million Research Grant to Understand and Predict the Bird Flu
The University of Oklahoma was awarded a $4.5 million grant to apply cutting-edge science, data and tools in preparation for climate extremes such as droughts, floods and heat waves.
The funding, which was made possible by a grant from the U.S. Geological Survey, allows the South Central Climate Adaptation Science Center to continue to operate on the OU Norman campus for the next five years.
Researchers at the Center support decision makers across Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana and New Mexico better understand climate impacts and climate adaptation related to natural and cultural resource management.
"We have seen devastating wildfires, extraordinary drought conditions, extensive flooding and other climate-related disasters just in the past five years across our region," says Renee McPherson, director of the South Central Climate Adaptation Science Center and OU associate professor of geography and environmental sustainability. "We know that the costs and damages of these disasters are rising. Now is the time to build resilience in our communities, water resources, coastal environments, forests and other landscapes. The Climate Adaptation Science Center gathers many of the top scientists in the south-central United States and targets their work on science that helps us combat these climate extremes."
Since the Center's establishment in 2012, the Center's scientists have partnered with experts on a variety of research topics. For example, researchers mapped wildfire likelihood to assist fire managers in preparing for wildfire events. Others investigated the impacts of a changing climate on snowpack, streamflow, native wildlife or invasive plants to develop planning scenarios for managers.
Additionally, the Center has studied ways to effectively monitor soil moisture and drought conditions to help decision makers be proactive in extreme hot and dry conditions. By identifying how climate extremes are likely to affect the south-central United States in the coming decades, the science team can help resource managers build resilience in their national or state parks, wildlife refuges, tribes, communities or other jurisdictions.
The Center is one of eight regional centers funded by the USGS. Their collective mission is to "deliver science to help fish, wildlife, water, land and people adapt to a changing climate." Center members include the University of Oklahoma (lead institution), Chickasaw Nation, Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, Texas Tech University, Louisiana State University, University of New Mexico and Oklahoma State University.
The Center also produces a series of short videos titled Managing for a Changing Climate through funding from the USGS, OU and the Oklahoma NASA Space Grant Consortium. The videos explain climate impact on ecosystems and various sectors of society, and techniques to help adapt to climate extremes.
For further information about the Center, visit https://southcentralclimate.org/.

My prompt and everything are garbled after that, until I reset.
Looking around in .bash_history in Vim or less, that line shows as ^L^N^U. I definitely didn't just press Ctrl+LNU at the prompt then.
The first time this happened, I deleted that line, and history printed normally afterward.
This is the second time it's happened, and I want to know why, and how to avoid it.

Q: \setmathfont inside ExplSyntax: successfully compiled but with different result Consider the following example (to compile with LuaLaTeX):
\documentclass{article}

\ExplSyntaxOn

\RequirePackage{unicode-math}
\setmathfont{KpMath-Regular.otf}
\setmathfont{texgyrepagella-math.otf}
  [
    range = { it / { Latin, latin }, bfit / { Latin, latin }, up / num, bfup / num }
  ]

\ExplSyntaxOff

\begin{document}

\( f \overline{f} \)

\end{document}

The placement of \overline does not look correct:

However, if one comments out \ExplSyntaxOn and \ExplSyntaxOff, the result looks good:

With XeLaTeX, the result is still different with or without ExplSyntax, but the result looks even better when it is inside ExplSyntax:

Since I'm putting the \setmathfont inside an ExplClass, does this mean that I have to manually put a \ExplSyntaxOff and \ExplSyntaxOn around my code? Also, is there some way to achieve the effect under XeLaTeX when using LuaLaTeX?


"The portion of American families living in middle-income neighborhoods has declined significantly since 1970, according to a new study, as rising income inequality left a growing share of families in neighborhoods that are mostly low-income or mostly affluent.
...Sean F. Reardon, an author of the study and a sociologist at Stanford, argued that the shifts had far-reaching implications for the next generation. Children in mostly poor neighborhoods tend to have less access to high-quality schools, child care and preschool, as well as to support networks or educated and economically stable neighbors who might serve as role models.
The isolation of the prosperous, he said, means less interaction with people from other income groups and a greater risk to their support for policies and investments that benefit the broader public — like schools, parks and public transportation systems. About 14 percent of families lived in affluent neighborhoods in 2007, up from 7 percent in 1970, the study found..."


Similar to last year's results, the majority of respondents (42% or 700) are satisfied with their jobs. Nearly 12% (203) said they are extremely satisfied. About 38% (644) rated their job satisfaction as just "okay." Only 8% (137) report a low level of job satisfaction and less than 2% said they're not at all content.
A total of 1,722 respondents participated in this year's survey.
From January through March, respondents accessed the survey questionnaire via a link listed on the www.chemicalprocessing.com website, and in e-newsletters and e-mail blasts sent to readers. Additionally, those who follow Chemical Processing on Twitter at Chem_Processing and Facebook at Chemical Processing Magazine were encouraged to participate.

It's almost inevitable to relate Spring to natural growth and rejuvenation. Once you hear the chirping birds and see the blossoms outside, you can't help but feel refreshed. What better time to get on with your spring cleaning than now? And yes, you guessed it, we are not talking about traditional spring cleaning. Your website also needs some tender love and care. It spawns its digital dust and craves for annual thorough cleaning and refreshing.
Visitors will appreciate and reward a freshly rejuvenated internet space. You can boost your website in looks and performance, and it's not even that hard. We are here precisely for that – to help you make the most of your site spring cleaning. Let's begin, shall we?
You probably feel like all those update alerts are a part of your everyday life by now, which might make you easily ignore them, but they are often there for a reason. That reason would be to address the most current security vulnerabilities, which sometimes come with additional features and improvements. You can be sure that it's absolutely in your interest to keep everything up-to-date.
One of the most important things to look for is the PHP version on your website. Using an older than the current version of PHP always comes with the risk of exposing your site to some security vulnerabilities. Since the most up-to-date versions of the scripting language have fixed those vulnerabilities, you will be safe once you update it.
Additionally, if you're one of the millions of people that use WordPress, you probably know that it's your other important update to address. Make sure you have the latest version of WordPress installed on your website and get all the perks with it.
Don't forget to also check all your plugins for needed updates. Addressing them might be irritating at times, but once you go through with them your site will be much safer, and you would not have to worry about website security for a while. Oh, yeah, they also really don't take much time.
Your domain is your business – don't let it disappear. Now is the time to renew your domain name registration, or at least to set a reminder for that before it reaches the expiration date. At FastComet, we make sure to notify you about your domain renewals. We do that, along with many other helpful notifications, via email. With that said, it's a good idea to keep your email details updated.
Similar to dusting your house, going through your links to check for broken ones is better done more than once a year. Broken links will irritate visitors, drive away customers, and damage your overall search engine ranking. If you haven't already found and taken care of the broken links on your site, make sure you do that. There are various tools available on the internet, that will help you on your journey. Good examples for free broken link checkers are Screaming Frog, Online Broken Link Checker, Dead Link Checker, WordPress Plugin for Broken Link Check, and maybe the most important one – Google Search Console. Some of them have paid versions if you choose, but there are also a couple of powerful premium SEO tools on the market, such as URL Profiler and SEMRush.
Provide an excellent opportunity for you to determine the content that would massively benefit from a refreshment. Also, there might be pieces of content that are worth redoing into additional ones.
All in all, the content audit will help you get all the valuable information that you need to fuel up your content for the near future.
Keep note that this is one of the steps that could take up some more time than you initially thought. With that said, you can be absolutely sure that you will be getting great results if you do everything correctly. Remember that patience is critical for this kind of procedure. Later you will find out that the content audit actually has saved you time because it helped you realize the potential that is within the further promoting of your content.
Additionally, you should not be afraid of promoting older pieces of your content. The only requirement for them should be that they are up to date.
While you're running the content audit, it would be of additional help if you go on with a metadata audit too. The great bonus of reenergizing the content on your site comes in the form of improved search engine rankings. When you update your site, you are telling search engines that you are still taking care of your internet space, and it's active and vibrant, rather than a neglected web page.
We also should mention that it's a good idea to look for internal linking – it's very convenient. Ask yourself how often do you honestly go back to your old pieces of content and link them to your new posts. Well, no matter what the answer is, a good time for internal linking is while in the middle of content refreshing. Take this opportunity and make the most of it. It's easy to forget, but undoubtedly worth the time.
With everything said, we recommend you to consider walking the extra mile and making your website accessible to more groups of the population. We have a great post that thoroughly explains the critical importance of Website Accessibility.
After you're done with all that "dusting," feel free to relax and take a step back. Look at your website and enjoy how tidy everything is now. Then think about the place that your site calls home – your hosting plan, exactly. Ask yourself: Is your current web hosting plan working for you and your visitors in the best way possible? If you have started with a shared hosting package and it's not enough anymore – that should only make you happy. It means that your website is growing exponentially. Therefore your business is progressing. Don't hesitate to move away from shared hosting and go to those sweet VPS or Dedicated Servers, if needed. It's like going from a rented house with roommates to buying your own home. You will feel like the king of the place.
Now that you have done everything on the list, it would be much easier to keep it that way. All you need to do is keep track of your analytics and address anything when needed.
If you haven't already started with your Website Spring Cleaning, what are you still waiting for? You already know that you can use this post as guidance. Also, if you have any further questions on the matter, don't hesitate to ask them in the comment section. We are glad to help with whatever we can, and we also like to chat with people. So, go ahead!
Joseph is part of the FastComet Customer Success team. He also has a decent amount of experience as a content writer and editor. He has a thirst for knowledge and aims to constantly grow in every possible way. Joseph is one of the latest additions to the FastComet team but already feels at home.

WORLDWIDE CANCER DOCUMENTARY SERIES DONATES TO CHARITIES IN A BIG WAY AT 2ND ANNUAL CHARITY GALA
"When we began this journey almost 20 years ago, we never dreamed how it would touch millions of lives. We are so thankful that it is, and we're so honored and humbled to help people learn the truth about cancer." –Ty Bollinger, Co-Founder ~ The Truth About Cancer
(NASHVILLE, TN) On Thursday December 3, 2015, The Truth About Cancer ("TTAC") held its second annual charitable donation gala at the Gaylord Opryland Resort in Nashville, Tennessee and donated nearly $200,000 to five deserving cancer charities and one very special young woman.
The second annual charity event gala was attended by distinguished and innovative researchers, doctors, scientists, and crusaders in the field of alternative medicine, cancer treatments, cures, and prevention methods.
"I am overjoyed and humbled to be able to present charitable donations to these worthy organizations and amazing people," said Ty Bollinger, co-founder of TTAC.
"Our global documentary series reveals that there are real evidence back cancer cures, treatments, and prevention methods that don't involve dangerous surgeries or harmful drugs. We want everyone that watches the series to know the real truth about cancer.
We've interviewed some of the most knowledgeable scientists, doctors, researchers and cancer survivors in the world and we know that their methods and treatment options provide a positive alternative to the current cancer treatment options. It's truly awe-inspiring. Because of this rewarding work we are able to give back in a big way and plan to do much more in the future."
Bollinger lost several members of his family to cancer, including his parents. His devastating loss inspired him to go on a quest to find real answers about cancer treatment methods and the medical industry. Through the tireless efforts of Ty Bollinger and his wife, Charlene, along with co-founder Jonathan Hunsaker, it became their mission to discover real treatments, breakthroughs, and therapies to prevent and even cure cancer without resorting to harmful surgeries or dangerous conventional treatment options.
In less than 22 months since TTAC was launched it has become a leading resource for those seeking to heal and treat cancer. The website: www.thetruthaboutcancer.com had over 4.7 million visitors and 21 million page views since its launch on May 20, 2014.
The Truth About Cancer: A Global Quest, the third docu-series by TTAC, was launched in October. Bollinger and his team interviewed over 131 doctors, scientists, and survivors from 27 countries to reveal real breakthroughs, therapies, and treatments to eradicate and cure the cancer pandemic. The 9 part docu-series was released online for free to the public and currently has over 5 million views on YouTube.
The second annual charity event gala and premiere Lifetime Achievement Award ceremony honored 11 experts that have worked tirelessly in the field of alternative medicine, cancer treatment, real cancer cures, and cancer prevention.
This year TTAC donated almost $200,000 to numerous charities such as The Independent Cancer Research Foundation (ICRF), The American Anti-Cancer Institute (AACI), Healing Strong, and Cancer Crackdown.

Literally translated as Happy Lunar New Year in Mandarin, the Gong Xi Fa Cai mobile slot gives you year round good fortune.
There are a million Far East slots around, all with slightly different themes, and yet all slightly alike.
The Gong Xi Fa Cai slot doesn't revolutionise the genre in terms of theme. You get your typical lucky coins, dragons, Phoenix, Chinese lanterns and koi littering the reels, all set on red and purple backgrounds.
In many ways, it's similar to the 1421 Voyages of Zheng He mobile slot, except instead of ships, you get a little fat man wishing you good luck by the side of the reels.
Considering this is an IGT slot game, you don't have to wait for the free spins to get decent wins.
Don't get us wrong; the Gong Xi Fa Cai bonus games help, as you get no low paying symbols, so decent wins are almost guaranteed.
But during the base game you get multipliers from 2x to 5x on random high paying symbol on the first reel. If used, you get the multiplier added to your win, which certainly comes in handy.
Is that four progressive jackpots?
Yeap. More importantly, every time you hit the click me bonus you are guaranteed to hit one of the four jackpots.
Unlike games like the Hall of Gods slot from NetEnt, where you are more likely to walk away with a consolation cash prize, here you have to walk away with one of four sums on the side of the scream.
Of course, all that really means is that you hit the mini-jackpot more often than not, which is usually no more than between 2x and 5x your bet.
But you got to admit, there's something wonderfully enticing about clicking on those red envelope of good fortune and coming just one gem close to getting a few thousand in your pocket.
We say 'surprisingly' because even games like the Golden Goddess slot, one of the most popular low variance slot machines by IGT, can take a while to warm up to wins.
But this IGT slot walks the line nicely between promising great fortune, whilst still keeping your fortune ticking along.
It's not without dangers (no IGT game is), but perfect to celebrate a happy and prosperous New Year.
Wild: the wild symbol replaces all other symbols on the reels except bonus symbols.
Multiplier symbol: On reel one, any of the high paying symbols can come along with a multiplier of 2x, 3x, or 5x.
If you manage to get a win using those symbols, you also get the multiplier.
Lucky Fortune Progressive Picker: This can trigger on any base game spin with a multiplier on reel 1 and is how you win the Gong Xi Fa Cai jackpot slot.
Maxi: seed at 10,000 cash, can go much higher, is a shared progressive jackpot across casinos.
Major: seeds at 500 cash, but generally goes into the thousands, is a shared progressive jackpot across casinos.
Minor: seeds at 900 coins, but is also multiplied by your bet multiplier as this is a jackpot local the casino you're playing at.
Mini: seeds at 300 coins, but is also multiplied by your bet multiplier as this is a jackpot local the casino you're playing at.
You will always win one of the four jackpots when you hit this feature, which usually means triggering the mini or minor.
On the bright side this feature shows up often, and you always manage to come close to a bigger jackpot, which is both exhilarating and frustrating.
Scatters and free spins: 3 bonus scatters anywhere on screen will trigger the free spin bonus rounds.
Not the easiest to catch, but generally worthwhile, as this game removes all the low paying symbols, which leaves you open to much bigger wins, thanks to those multiplier symbols on reel 1.
It's like the mobile Hercules High and Mighty slot machine, but without having to pay huge amounts to get the feature.
One of the most popular land based casino games, this time round IGT have added 4 jackpots to the Gong Xi Fa Cai slot machine on mobile.
With a great Asian theme that works all year round, not just during the Chinese New Year, there's plenty here to love, from multiplier on the first reel, to high paying free spin bonus round.
Just don't be too dissapointed when the frequent bonus games pays out only the mini-jackpot - that's just one of the frustrations you have to live with when playing on jackpot slots.

Funky Oligarchy
By Luke Baumgarten
Tracking down a copy of the Crown City Rockers' Earthtones in this town is like investigating an urban legend. Everybody's listened to it, but nobody actually has a copy, though everyone knows a guy who does. Ben Cater didn't have one, but he built it up huge like the story of Candyman: "That CD is in my top 10, all time," he says. Seriously? "Yeah, dude." I couldn't decide if that was honesty or club-owner salesmanship. Then he called back: "Uh, like top 25. Top 10 sounds like I'm gushing too much." So it was honesty, I guess. He paused again, "But, like, in the last five years? Yeah, top 10."
Unified Groove Merchants didn't have it either. Tony Brown told me, "We get five and they'll be gone, then get five more and they'll be gone." I asked him about what Cater said (top 10, all time). "I wouldn't go that far," He said, laughing, then added, "In the last five years, though, it's up there. It's got that fresh, fun vibe that's [often] missing."
It's also funky and soulful (I eventually heard it -- from a friend -- but never did land my own copy). They're a live group, meaning they still have beats, but they also fold in live drums, a bass player and a keyboardist. I talked to Crown City's MC, Raashan Ahmad, about how he and his band mates rock a party, which they'll do Saturday night at the B-Side.
On the dynamics of MCing with a live band: "It's my favorite thing in the world. I thank these cats all the time for letting me rock with them. It's amazing. All the musicians went to Berkley School of Music, and they've been playing music since pre-double-digits. Coming from an MC standpoint, I need to have the crowd with me. Having a band behind you does that. When it all gels, there's like this big ball of energy."
On live Hip-Hop's audience: "We can play places I could never had gone without a band. We can go and rock it like a funk festival or like a jazz caf & eacute; or an underground Hip-Hop spot. We can rock all those different types of parties, which is, in a sense, broader [than traditional Hip-Hop]. A lot of people who come to our shows are like, "I don't usually like Hip-Hop," but they can see elements that they like that they can see on stage. That opens up the spectrum even more."
On live Hip-Hop as a gateway for indie kids: "Definitely, man, and it's crazy. I can't even explain it. It has something to do with instruments, but at the same time it has something to do with positive Hip-Hop, and a lot of people not being exposed to, you know, positive Hip-Hop. We've got hippie jam kids rocking out with us. It embodies a certain spirit of what Hip-Hop was when it first started out, which was partying, having fun and raising some social awareness."
On Boston's (recently exploded) underground scene: "It's so great when I see cats like Edan and [Mr.] Lif, Akrobatik and Fakts One really, really exploding because, you know, they haven't really changed much. It's just, now other people have gotten to the point where these cats have always been.
"The very first EP we pressed up had a track that was produced by Edan on it, you know, and it was at his dorm. It's cool remembering that and then seeing these cats up on billboards and hearing people talk about them."
On what he took from Boston as an MC: "My big brother raps, so whenever I'd rap [in Pasadena], people were like, 'Whoa, look, Dean's little brother is rapping.' [Boston] made me step up my game. The intensity and how much these cats really, really got into it made me realize how fun it was. More than anything else. I was like, 'Ah, man that's right, this is fun - this so much fun.'
On whether I'll finally be able to get my hands on a CD at the show: "Oh, yeah, man, we're bringing them with us."
Crown City Rockers play the HipHopolis Now! Festival at the B-Side with Eleven Eyes and MC Supervillain on Saturday, Oct. 8, at 7:30 pm. Tickets: $10, at the door; $25 for the weekend. Visit www.ticketwest.com or call 325-SEAT.
Fun Like Animal Fights & r & The name alone ought to get the masses to Fat Tuesday's on Friday night -- if for no other reason than to investigate what kind of musicians dare assume the moniker Bear vs. Shark. For those in the know, BvS promises a righteous, frenetic, sonic and aural assault that falls within the parameters of screamo and post-hardcore, but transcends these very limited terms. BvS will be a sight to behold. The indie kids will love it; the emo kids will love it; the metal kids might crack a smile. Make sure you arrive early.
Though touring in support of this summer's Terrorhawk, it would be unfair and incomplete to judge the band by the studio work alone. Certainly the music will sound similar, an amalgamation of influences and interests as varied as Zep-style classic rock to Motown to the avant-garde post-rock sounds of At The Drive-In. In less capable hands, the result might be a muddled and muddy mess. For BvS frontman Marc Paffi, too much just isn't enough. When playing live, Paffi transforms into the musical equivalent of the Tasmanian Devil, a whirling dervish of screams and slobber unleashed into and upon the crowd. But his is a controlled kind of chaos, one that BvS exploits to the most pleasing end. The pounding drums crash around the driving guitars in an effort to keep pace with Paffi's cathartic wails. If the band manages to wreck itself in the process, it will be for the audience's benefit and delight.
Still something of an underground phenomenon, BvS stands on a precipice. The raw power of the live shows assures they won't remain out of the spotlight for much longer. Fat Tuesday's is a good venue to catch them: It's large enough to bring a good-sized crowd and small enough for BvS to mow them down. If all goes well, attendees can look forward to the most gorgeous kind of noise as a portent for the most beautiful kind of demolition. -- Carey Murphy
Bear vs. Shark at Fat Tuesday's with Fear Before the March of Flames, Since by Man and the Fall of Troy on Friday, Oct. 7, at 7 pm. Tickets: $8; $10, at the door. Visit www.ticketswest.com or call 325-SEAT.
Partner Swap & r & Parker Moosman, the Side Project's pianist, calls Tingstad & amp; Rumbel "healing music" as a way to sidestep the term "New Age." Healing music, though, still sounds like mysticism. The Recording Academy seems to agree, as Tingstad & amp; Rumbel's Acoustic Garden won the New Age Grammy in 2003. When the question is put to Eric Tingstad (the guitar to Nancy Rumbel's various woodwinds), though, he takes a hard line. "We're not New Age music," he says. "People think that, when something is quiet and instrumental, that's New Age." Quiet and instrumental, to him, doesn't offer the proper litmus test. "You can't find our CDs in crystal shops," he says, "We're not that woo-woo."
Woo-woo meaning, it seems, diffuse and formless, songs that contain no discernable structure or internal logic. With that rubric, Enya isn't New Age, either. (You can debate that among yourselves.) He explains his and Rumbel's work as "definitive compositions with a central lyrical melody." They are proper songs, not ambient textures. They have direction. They tell stories. "Nancy has always felt we had more folk sensibilities than anything else," says Tingel. Instrumental folk, then, not New Age.
Which isn't that far a cry from the Side Project's languid, soulful wine-glass pop -- a brand-new genre I'm coining based on the desire of SP's vocalist, Suzie Bradford, that people listen to them "over a glass of wine." It makes sense, then, that the groups would collaborate. Tingstad says he loves "tapping their youthful energy." What he tries to give to Side Project, as their friend and their manager, is a desire to push past the space they've assigned themselves and explore everything open to them: "Their melodies and lyrics don't need any help, but I'd love to see them take a few of their songs and put them into a pop form."
We'll get to see exactly what the collaboration has yielded this week at the Met, where the two bands are playing sets -- and each others' sets. "Nancy and I will do the first half of the show and Side Project will do the second," Tingstad explains. "But Ben [Bradford] will be doing a tune with us. So is Parker and so is Suzie. Then I'm doing two with them and Nancy is doing one." He pauses. Over the phone, I imagine him counting on his fingers or something, making sure he's listed them all. "And we're all going to do the last song together." -- Luke Baumgarten
The Side Project with Tingstad and Rumbel at the Met Theater on Friday, Oct. 7, at 7 pm. Tickets: $15. Visit www.ticketswest.com or call 325-SEAT.

Q: How to reset authentication-service user initial keypassword Am trying to setup SAML, and i want to reset the keypassword for the authentication-service user. Will it be possible by UI or any Felix Configuration?

A: If you have forgotten the original password you are in deep trouble. There is no way to retrieve this password (to my knowledge).
The easiest approach here would be to delete the KeyStore under /home/users/system/authentication-service/keystore and set it up again.

"If people aren't calling you crazy, you aren't thinking big enough."
These days taking chances isnt just for college dropouts in hoodies. Whether you work at a Fortune 500 company, a nonprofit, or a mom-and-pop, everybody needs to think and act like an entrepreneur. We all need to be nimble, adaptive, daring—and maybe even a little crazy—or risk being left behind.
But how do you take smart risks without risking it all? Thats Linda Rottenbergs expertise. As the cofounder and CEO of Endeavor, the worlds leading organization dedicated to supporting fast-growing entrepreneurs, shes spent the last two decades helping innovators think bold and execute smart.
Now Rottenberg draws on her unrivaled experience to show you the proven techniques to achieve your dreams: from overcoming fear to facing down critics, from stalking supporters to exploiting chaos. Crazy Is a Compliment combines inspiring stories, original research, and practical advice to create a road map for getting started and going bigger.
Rottenberg brings to life iconic entrepreneurs like Walt Disney and Estée Lauder and reveals how companies like MTV, GE, and Burberry found their best successes by breaking the corporate mold and embracing the entrepreneur mind-set. She also introduces us to some of the one thousand entrepreneurs shes advised, like Leila Velez, who started a hair-care company in her kitchen sink in Rio that now earns $80 million a year. As Linda writes:
Every day I meet people with a dream. Maybe youre serving coffee and fantasizing about launching a microbrewery; maybe youve skipped college and yearn to start your own design firm; maybe youre sitting in your cubicle and brainstorming a new idea that can improve your company.
You have a dream, but you dont know how to turn your dream into reality. Or youve already launched your dream but youre unsure how to take it to the next level. This book can show you the way.
"Call me crazy, but I think Linda is onto something big here. She delivers powerful insights with her legendary wit and candor to show how everyone can think and act like an entrepreneur."
—Michael Dell, founder and CEO, Dell Inc.
"For nearly two decades, Linda has been teaching and learning from the boldest entrepreneurs around the world. In this terrific book, she shares what it takes to master the chaos of starting your own business -- or simply to grow your own career in today's fast-changing world of work."
—Reid Hoffman, co-founder/chairman of LinkedIn and co-author of the #1 New York Times Bestseller The Start-Up of You
"Crazy is what they call people who don't fit in. And we need a lot more crazy like Linda is crazy. She is generous, curious, connected and driven to make a difference in the world. And this book captures all of that and more. Buy it, read it, live it."
—Seth Godin, author of Linchpin
"Crazy Is a Compliment is a treasure trove.. Linda Rottenberg is an extraordinary entrepreneur who has guided many of the worlds greatest entrepreneurs, and she offers invaluable insights—not only for start-ups, but also for companies, nonprofits, governments, and schools. If you have an idea or want to innovate, I highly recommend devouring this book."
—Adam Grant, professor at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania and author of Give and Take
"Linda has tapped into something important—that we all need to be more entrepreneurial these days. With her impressive track record and inspiring story, she shows us all how to overcome our fears and take smart, achievable steps to improve our organizations."
—Sheryl Sandberg, COO of Facebook and founder of LeanIn.Org
"Rottenbergs energy is contagious, and the chatty, conversational presentation is designed to get readers moving. This is a great guide for those with more dreams than courage."
Most startups fail. But those failures, says entrepreneur Eric Ries, are preventable.
New ventures, from the garage to those within Fortune 500 companies, are designed to create innovative products or services that have never existed before. When these startups fail, it is usually not because they didn't execute well enough—on the contrary, they "achieved failure" by building the wrong things very efficiently. Startups cannot use traditional planning and management tools, because their product and customers are unknown. The primary mission of entrepreneurs is to penetrate the uncertainty about what customers will ultimately embrace, and discover a path to a successful business.
The Lean Startup methodology offers a scientific approach to creating and managing successful startups. It relies on what Ries calls "validated learning" to build a sustainable business. It is a way of getting continuous feedback so that a company can decide whether or not to persevere in their vision, or pivot and shift directions. It allows entrepreneurs a way to adapt their plans incrementally, inch by inch, minute by minute. In other words, rather than creating an elaborate business plan, The Lean Startup offers a way to test your vision continuously, so that you can innovate and adjust while you still have time to do so.
Most startups fail. But many of those failures are preventable. The Lean Startup is a new approach being adopted across the globe, changing the way companies are built and new products are launched.
Eric Ries defines a startup as an organization dedicated to creating something new under conditions of extreme uncertainty. This is just as true for one person in a garage or a group of seasoned professionals in a Fortune 500 boardroom. What they have in common is a mission to penetrate that fog of uncertainty to discover a successful path to a sustainable business.
The Lean Startup approach fosters companies that are both more capital efficient and that leverage human creativity more effectively. Inspired by lessons from lean manufacturing, it relies on "validated learning," rapid scientific experimentation, as well as a number of counter-intuitive practices that shorten product development cycles, measure actual progress without resorting to vanity metrics, and learn what customers really want. It enables a company to shift directions with agility, altering plans inch by inch, minute by minute.
Rather than wasting time creating elaborate business plans, The Lean Startup offers entrepreneurs - in companies of all sizes - a way to test their vision continuously, to adapt and adjust before it's too late. Ries provides a scientific approach to creating and managing successful startups in a age when companies need to innovate more than ever.

De aardaker (Lathyrus tuberosus) is een plant uit de vlinderbloemenfamilie. In Nederland is de plant vanaf 1 januari 2017 niet meer wettelijk beschermd.

Kenmerken
Het overblijvende kruid is een klimplant met platte stengels en wordt ongeveer 30-100 cm lang. De circa 2 cm lange bloemen zijn rozerood tot violet van kleur en groeien in trossen van drie tot acht stuks. De plant bloeit in juni en juli. De bloemen worden bestoven door vlinders en door bijen uit de geslachten: Eucera, Megachile, Osmia en Trachusa. De bloemen geuren.

De bladeren zijn geveerd. Het onderste, solitaire deelblaadje is ovaal en de einddeelblaadjes bestaan uit gedeelde ranken, waarmee de plant zich vasthecht. De middelste deelblaadjes zijn langwerpig hartvormig.

De plant is een hemikryptofyt. Zijn ontkieming is tweedelig. Het bovenste gedeelte van de kiemwortel en het hypocotyl verdikken zich tot een eerste knol. Uit de bladoksels van de kiemblaadjes en de onderste blaadjes van de liggende, beginnende groeistengel groeit tot een tot 60 cm lange bodemuitloper. Deze uitlopers vertakken zich verder en de in de bodem liggende knopen vormen zich tot knollenvormende wortels. Na drie tot vier jaar bereiken deze knollen de volle grootte en zijn dan net zo groot als hazelnoten. De plant wortelt tot 70 cm in de aarde. De soort vermeerdert zich vegetatief door de ondergrondse uitlopers en in het bijzonder door de knolletjes.

Standplaats
De aardaker groeit in akkerranden en in wegbermen op kleigrond. Ze prefereert kalkhoudende grond, maar is hier niet tot beperkt. Volgens de Duitse ecoloog Heinz Ellenberg is de aardaker een typische soort die op schrale grond groeit tussen de akkerkruiden bij graanvelden.

Verspreiding
De aardaker komt oorspronkelijk uit Europa en het westen van Azië. In Noord-Amerika komt de plant nu ook voor.

Voedingsbestanddelen
De knolletjes bevatten vooral suikers en zetmeel en tevens eiwitten en vetten.

Toepassingen
Tot in de negentiende eeuw werd de soort commercieel verbouwd, onder andere in Nederland in de provincie Zeeland en op de Zuid-Hollandse eilanden. Uitvoer vond plaats naar Frankrijk. Tegenwoordig vindt men de plant vooral in de tuinen van liefhebbers van oude cultuurgewassen.

De knolletjes werden als aardappels gekookt of net als tamme kastanjes gepoft. Vaak dienden ze ook als koffiesurrogaat of als varkensvoer. Ze konden ook tot plantaardige olie verwerkt worden. In de zestiende eeuw werd uit de bloemen parfum gewonnen.

Sinds het begin van de eenentwintigste eeuw jaren wordt de plant in zaadmengsels verwerkt die op onbegroeide terreinen worden uitgezaaid. Als vlinderbloemige draagt deze plant bij aan de bodemverbetering (bijdrage van stikstof), vergelijkbaar met de lupine en de luzerneklaver.

Bescherming
Deze plant was in Nederland officieel beschermd tot 1 januari 2017, en staat in België op de rode lijst. In sommige deelstaten van Duitsland staat deze plant ook op de rode lijst van bedreigde plantensoorten.

UNLV basketball player calls Trey Songz a 'rapist'
Instagram, Prince Williams/ATLpics.net
A former basketball player for the University of Las Vegas stunned Twitter followers when she accused R&B singer Trey Songz of being a rapist.
On Friday morning, Dylan Gonzalez tweeted: "Trey Songz is a rapist. Lord forgive me I Couldn't hold that in another year. See you in 2022."
Gonzalez didn't elaborate on her tweet.
Trey Songz is a rapist.
Lord forgive me I Couldn't hold that in another year.
See you in 2022 ??
— Dylan Gonzalez (@IIGonZ_) December 31, 2021
Prince Williams/Wireimage
The tweet comes after it was reported in November that Las Vegas authorities were investigating rape allegations against the promiscuous singer.
The alleged sex assault occurred at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas resort casino and hotel. Trey reportedly invited a group of female fans back to his hotel room from Drais Nightlub after celebrating his 37th birthday.
Pray for Trey if you're a fan. He's about to be R. Kelly'd.

No charges for Blac Chyna accused of holding woman against her will in hotel room
Be Like Water Media / BACKGRID
Blac Chyna will not face charges for allegedly holding a woman in a hotel room against her will.
Sacramento police investigated a report by a woman who said she was "held hostage" by Chyna in a hotel room at the Sacramento Sheraton Grand hotel on Nov. 27. The woman also claimed there was drugs present and Chyna was high on cocaine.
Sacramento Police told The Sun and Page Six that officers were made aware of a disturbance at the hotel and that "no injuries were reported."
Chyna's attorney said video evidence cleared the 33-year-old reality TV star of any wrongdoing.
"This story is false," Chyna's attorney said in a statement to Fox News Digital.
"This latest false accusation of criminal conduct is just the most recent in a long line of false accusations against Blac Chyna.
"We are very thankful that video evidence has allowed us to disprove past false allegations of assault & battery by her then fiancé Rob Kardashian, a false accusation of assault with a deadly weapon, and now this false charge. The video being circulated on social media shows that Blac Chyna did not hold anyone against their will."
He hinted that a slander lawsuit might be in the works.
"We are hopeful that one day people will stop falsely accusing Blac Chyna of criminal conduct. Until that day, we will continue to disprove these false allegations to law enforcement and in the courtroom, if necessary."
Michael Tran/Getty Images
The controversy didn't affect Chyna's bookings. On Tuesday, the popular influencer attended the launch press event announcing Grammy-Winner Paula Abdul as celebrity judge for upcoming Uplive WorldStage Global Singing Competition in Hollywood, California.
On Saturday, Chyna spoke to women at the L.A. Women's Expo in Los Angeles, CA.
The Washington D.C. native wore white leggings, a white top with a crocodile corset and a white crocodile jacket.
During her appearance, Chyna chatted with KTLA anchor Lynette Romero. The two women posed for photos onstage afterwards. Organizers said they had no plans to cancel Chyna's appearance amid the allegations.
Chyna is mom to 5-year-old daughter Dream with Rob Kardashian, 34, and son King Cairo Stevenson, 9, by rapper Tyga, 32.
She briefly dated rapper Playboi Carti, rapper YBN Almighty Jay, P. J. Tucker, Shad Moss, and aspiring rapper Kid Buu.

Popeyes Chicken: 'We Reserve the Right to Refuse Service to White People'
A criminal investigation is currently underway at a franchise Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen restaurant in Missouri where a racist sign was posted in the window.
The sign announced the restaurant was under new management and it reserves the "right to refuse service to white people."
"This restaurant is under new management and will reserve the right to refuse service to white people.
Signed, General Manager, Mason."
Local news reporter Russell Kinsaul took a photo of the sign and posted it on his Facebook page, where it spread quickly.
White customers are scarcely seen in Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen restaurants which primarily serve Black communities.
After the sign went viral, it was removed from the window and replaced with another sign that read: "Sorry For The Inconvenience. We're Closed For The Day We Will Be Back Tomorrow."
Popeyes corporate office issued a statement that read:
"We have been made aware of the situation and are investigating the matter immediately. This type of behavior does not align with our brand values and we take such allegations very seriously. The franchise is cooperating with local authorities regarding this ongoing investigation."
According to Fox affiliate KTVI-TV in St. Louis, local police believe someone may have affixed the sign to the window "unbeknownst to the business".

Bobby Brown Jr.'s parents want criminal charges filed against drug dealers
Los Angeles prosecutors are considering filing criminal charges against drug dealers responsible for supplying the drugs that contributed to the death of Bobby Brown, Jr.
A toxicology report shows Bobby Brown, Jr. died from an overdose of cocaine, fentanyl and alcohol.
The 28-year-old son of R&B singer Bobby Brown and Kim Ward was found unresponsive in his Los Angeles home on November 18, 2020.
MediaPunch / BACKGRID
Illegal narcotics in Bobby Jr.'s system prompted his parents to demand a criminal investigation into how Bobby Jr. obtained the drugs.
Specific details about the case have not been released, but according to TMZ, authorities became involved after learning certain drug dealers are known to cut with powerful painkiller fentanyl to get users hooked.
Bobby, Jr. is the second child of the former New Edition singer to die from a drug overdose.
Brown also lost his daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown, in July, 2015, six months after she was found unresponsive in a bathtub in her Atlanta, Georgia home.
Bobbi Kristina also had toxic levels of alcohol and cocaine in her system.
Bobbi Kristina's mother, Brown's ex-wife Whitney Houston, died from accidental drowning following a drug overdose in February 2012.

Broncos linebacker Von Miller under criminal investigation
Broncos linebacker Von Miller is under criminal investigation by police in a Denver suburb, the Seattle Times reports.
Parker Police Department spokesman Josh Hans confirmed an investigation is underway, but he declined to release the details. Hans wrote in an email, "We're not commenting on nature of the allegations. We haven't completed the investigation... "if the investigation determines a crime has occurred, charges will be submitted to the DA's Office for their review."
Miller, 31, has not been charged with any crimes.
The Broncos released a statement on Friday, saying they were "aware of an investigation involving Von Miller and are in the process of gathering more information."
Miller missed the 2020 season with an ankle injury he suffered just before the opener.
Miller is due $17.5 million in the final year of his seven-year, $114 million contact.
In 2016, Miller sued a former sex partner to block the sale of a sex tape. The tape was recorded while the Super Bowl MVP vacationed in Mexico with the accuser. A judge blocked the sale and distribution of the sex tape.
Miller is rumored to have dated singer K. Michelle.

Nurse suspended after stripping off PPE to have noisy sex with Covid-19 patient in toilet
ljubaphoto via Getty Images
What Corona? A horny nurse risked everything to have noisy sex with a Covid-19 patient in a hospital bathroom, according to the NY Post.
With a 99.9% survival rate for Covid-19, the nurse apparently wasn't concerned about the health risks.
News of the incident at a Jakarta hospital went viral Friday, Dec. 25, after the patient bragged on Twitter about his sexual tryst with a male nurse.
"It is true that there has been a suspected incident of a same-sex relationship between a health worker and a COVID-19 patient at the Wisma Atlet Emergency Hospital," said Asep Gunawan of the National Nurses Association.
The NY Post reports that the patient tweeted a photo of the nurse's PPE on the hospital room floor as the two went at it.
The hospital administration was understandably humiliated. The nurse was suspended and there may be criminal charges.
"This case has been transferred to the Central Jakarta Police. We have secured the health worker to become a witness and asked for further information," said Lt. Col. Arh Herwin of the Regional Military Command.
Nurse and patient were tested for Covid-19. The patient is still positive and the nurse is negative.
If convicted, both men face up to 10 years in prison.

LAPD Investigating Dr. Dre's Estranged Wife Nicole for Alleged Embezzlement
FayesVision/WENN.com
The Los Angeles Police Department has opened an investigation into Dr. Dre's estranged wife, Nicole Young, for cleaning out one of their corporate accounts.
Nicole is being investigated by the LAPD for alleged embezzlement, sources close to the case tell TMZ.
Dre's business partner, Larry Chatman, recently filed a police report, claiming Nicole, 50, withdrew hundreds of thousands of dollars from their business account without authorization.
Larry had previously alleged similar allegations in legal letters fired off to Nicole's attorneys in the past few weeks, and the LAPD launched an investigation into the case.
Phil Lewis/WENN.com
In the report to the LAPD, Dre's team claims Nicole cleaned out a corporate account, stealing $385,029 from the label she co-owned with Dre.
As TMZ previously reported, Dre, 55, called out Nicole for making 2 bank withdrawals -- which totaled the $385k -- after filing for divorce. Nicole claims she had a right to withdraw the cash because her name was on the corporate account.
Nicole, pictured during happier times with Dre, could face up to 20 years in prison if she is convicted of embezzling funds from the now defunct business.
Nicole's legal team tells TMZ Larry's claims against her are nothing but a smear attempt and a PR stunt because, so far, she is losing the court battle. Her attorneys maintain she's done nothing wrong.

FBI seeking victims of Netflix star Jerry Harris
The FBI is asking parents in the Illinois area and beyond to check their sons's cell phones for evidence of communications with Netflix star Jerry Harris.
Harris, star of Netflix's cheerleading docuseries "Cheer," was arrested and charged with production of child p0rnography.
Harris, 21, admitted to soliciting child p0rn from at least 10 children. He also confessed to having sex with a 15-year-old boy at a cheerleading event last year.
None those victims have come forward or contacted law enforcement about their communications with Harris.
The FBI launched an investigation after the mother of 14-year-old twin boys found explicit text messages from Harris on their phones.
The FBI has opened a portal for victims or parents of victims to identify themselves by completing a questionnaire.
The responses are voluntary but some of the information may be used in the investigation. All identities of victims will be kept confidential.
Victims may be eligible for certain services, financial restitution and rights under federal and/or state law.
The FBI website lists usernames that Harris used on Snapchat (jerry_714) and Instagram (@__jcoleofficial) to seduce unsuspecting boys.

Netflix 'Cheer' star Jerry Harris, 21, arrested and charged with production of child p0rnography
Getty Image, Mail Online
Jerry Harris, star of Netflix's cheerleading docuseries "Cheer," was arrested Thursday and charged with production of child p0rnography three days after FBI agents removed bags of evidence from his Naperville, Illinois home.
The 21-year-old male cheerleader was the subject of a federal investigation after the mom of 14-year-old twin boys, Charlie and Sam, found sexually explicit texts and alerted Varsity Brands, who, in turn, notified police.
The twins are suing Harris over sexual exploitation harassment that began when they were just 13. The brothers filed separate lawsuits against Harris this week, accusing the flamboyant star of harassing them at cheer competitions.
It was reported on Monday that the flamboyant cheerleader was under investigation amid allegations he "solicited sexually explicit photos and sex from a minor".
The criminal complaint alleges Harris requested nude photos from the boys.
In one Snapchat exchange, Harris asked one of the twins, "Would you ever want to****." The boy interpreted the message as a sex act.
In another message, one of the boys sent Harris a photo of himself and Harris allegedly responded: "Do it naked and take a video."
In court documents, the siblings, who are Caucasian, alleged they befriended Harris, who is Black, during a cheer competition in 2018, and were "star struck" by him.
Following steamy text messages from Harris requesting nude photos from the boys, they met up with Harris in "secluded locations at various competitions".
After their mother found out about the sexually explicit messages, she reported him to cheerleading organization Varsity Brands, who contacted police.
Harris, who was 19 at the time of the incidents, worked for Varsity at a cheer camp last year.
"As a result of the recent allegation, we have barred this person from having any affiliation with Varsity Brands or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, now and in the future," wrote Varsity's Chief Legal Officer Burton Brillhart in letters to police in Florida and Texas.
Since Cheer premiered in January, Harris has covered the Oscars red carpet for Ellen DeGeneres, signed endorsement deals with Schmidt's deodorant, Panera Bread and American Eagle and racked up over a million followers on Instagram.
Democratic nominee Joe Biden held a chat with Harris weeks before investigators raided Harris's home.
Harris was part of Biden's plan to help "win back the internet."
"If the same percentage of young blacks turned out and registered to vote as the average voter, you'd increase voting by several million people, you could change the outcome of elections," Biden told Harris.
During a recent episode of the Variety and iHeart podcast "The Big Ticket," Harris, who was referred to as a "gay icon," said his late mom was watching over him.
"I feel like she's very, very happy and excited for everything that's been going on, and she's really loving it," said Harris, whose mother died of lung cancer when he was 16. "I know she's telling me to always stay humble, because she doesn't want to see me get a big head."
Harris met his cheerleading inspiration, Gabrielle Union, last month.

Deutsche Bank Turns Over Trump Financial Records; NY AG Says She Will Make 'Major Announcement' Today
Deutsche Bank turned over President Trump's financial records to Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance through a subpoena filed last year.
On Wednesday, New York AG Letitia James said she will make a "major national announcement" at 11:30 a.m. on Thursday, Aug. 6.
Prosecutors have pored over Trump's financial records after the bank complied with the subpoena, the New York Times reports.
Vance and James, both Democrats, are investigating potential crimes in the U.S. president's financial dealings. Trump obtained loans from Deutsche Bank.
Vance launched an investigation into Trump's financial dealings last year after his former attorney, Michael Cohen, told Congress the president had a practice of misleading business associates and tax officials by undervaluing his assets.
As part of the investigation, Vance asked Trump's accounting firm to turn over 8 years of his tax returns, but they refused.
The U.S. Supreme Court ordered the tax returns released, but Trump's lawyers filed an appeal that will delay the release of the tax returns for at least another year.
Chris Condon/PGA TOUR
Trump didn't seem concerned on Monday. "This is just a continuation of the witch hunt," he told reporters.
"It's Democrat stuff they failed with Mueller they failed with everything. They failed at every stage of the game. Even before I got in this was starting with the Mueller deal. Mueller started a little bit after," Trump said, correcting himself.
"It's a terrible thing that they do. It's really a terrible thing. The witch hunt has gone on long enough," he said.
