Laxmi's Mooch (Hardcover)
By Shelly Anand, Nabi H. Ali (Illustrator)
1 on hand, as of Jan 17 11:03pm
(Childrens Fiction)
A joyful, body-positive picture book about a young Indian American girl's journey to accept her body hair and celebrate her heritage after being teased about her mustache.
Laxmi never paid much attention to the tiny hairs above her lip. But one day while playing farm animals at recess, her friends point out that her whiskers would make her the perfect cat. She starts to notice body hair all over--on her arms, legs, and even between her eyebrows.
With her parents' help, Laxmi learns that hair isn't just for heads, but that it grows everywhere, regardless of gender. Featuring affirming text by Shelly Anand and exuberant, endearing illustrations by Nabi H. Ali, Laxmi's Mooch is a celebration of our bodies and our body hair, in whichever way they grow.
A debut picture book author, Shelly Anand is a human and civil rights attorney in Atlanta fighting for immigrants and low income workers from marginalized communities. She received her BA from Wellesley College and her JD from the University of North Carolina School of Law at Chapel Hill. She lives with her husband and two small children.
Nabi H. Ali is a Tamil American illustrator who enjoys creating diverse works that showcase an array of cultures and people. He illustrates digitally, but he also has a secret love of inks, color pencil, and acrylic paints. His hobbies include drawing (of course), doll collecting, reading, learning about South Asian mythology and folklore, and researching history.

Can you ever truly be happy if you don't know who you are and what you want? After spending countless hours on work, responsibilities at home and basic survival needs, how much time do you allot towards self discovery? How would you feel if at the end of your life you look back and realize that 90% of your time was wasted on things that don't even matter to you now?
The first step to living life on your own terms is to identify what your core values are and to prioritize them. For example, my core values are 1) Freedom 2) Purpose 3) Growth. Knowing my core values gives me a tool to utilize when making life decisions. Years ago I made a big decision to become self-employed. It hasn't always been easy, but I love it. It satisfies all of my core values. Therefore I am continually willing to embrace the risk. Someone else may prefer to work for a company because security is one of their top values and so that's the right choice for them. The key is to know your priorities so that you choose wisely and authentically.
There's no "one size fits all" when it comes to core values. Your lifestyle should be a reflection of your personal values. That's why it's crucial to take the time to discover who you are and what you want. Otherwise you will likely find yourself living life by default, by someone else's priorities: your parents, your partner or society.
The next step is to question every piece of your life to see if it fits into your core values. Leave no stone unturned. Living life on your own terms requires looking deeply within to separate what's genuinely you and what's societal programming. Do you really want to work all those extra hours in order to pay for a fancier car? Or is there an unconscious belief that a fancier car = societal approval = self esteem = happiness? When in reality, perhaps working less hours = less stress and more freedom = happiness.
Having the courage to let go of what doesn't truly belong in your life will free up space to create a new, more fulfilling life experience. All the energy that was getting drained on inauthentic activities will become available for you to harness for your health, wellbeing and happiness. It will open the door to greater passion, purpose and confidence from being the navigator of your unique life journey.

Q: How to find the "replace text as you type" in Word AutoCorrect option in Word with C# I'm trying to check whether the word "CU" is exist in "word replace text list". I found out in interop.Excel and in VBA, we have AutoCorrect.ReplacementList. But in interop.Word is not.
So my question is how do i can check "CU" exist in Word replacement list by C#.
Thanks for your watching.

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application oWord = (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application)w;
_activeDoc = oWord.ActiveDocument;
oWord.Application.AutoCorrect.ReplaceText .......??????

A: To get a list of the AutoCorrect listing in Word use the AutoCorrect.Entries collection. The Name property returns the "shortcut", the Value property the text that replaces the "shortcut".
string acName = "";
string acValue = "";
bool foundit = false;
Word.AutoCorrectEntries ACs = wdApp.AutoCorrect.Entries;
foreach (Word.AutoCorrectEntry AC in ACs)
{
    acName = AC.Name;
    acValue = AC.Value;
    Debug.Print("Name: {0}, Value: {1}", acName, acValue);
    if (acName == "CU")
    {
        foundit = true;
        break;
    }
}
if (foundit)
{
    MessageBox.Show("Found it: " + acValue);
}
else MessageBox.Show("Not present");

Using Generational Differences To Prepare for the Customer of Tomorrow
By Gabe Larsen, VP, Growth, Kustomer
Retailers have experienced a cataclysmic shift over the past year. What used to be considered standard is no longer relevant as online shopping has progressed at warp speed. Even as the world returns to business-as-usual, a whopping 85% of shoppers plan to continue shopping online more often in the future.
Knowing who your business is servicing, and how they prefer to communicate with customer service, is critical for success. But knowing what younger generations prefer gives organizations insight into what is on the horizon. Here are some key ways that generational differences are defining what customer service organizations must do to create stellar experiences at every stage of the customer journey.
Customer service is consultative vs. transactional
As the retail landscape has changed dramatically, so has the role of customer service. More and more, modern customers are looking at retail relationships as an extension of brand identity rather than just being transactional. In a survey Kustomer conducted of over 500 consumers, 64% of consumers under 55 expect customer service agents to take on the role of a product expert, answering questions or suggesting alternatives, compared with only 37% of those 55+. Further, consumers under 25 had a completely even split across pre-, during, and post-transaction conversations. As the tides shift among younger consumers, businesses must prepare for this new role of the customer service agent now.
Chat is where it's at
While phone and email still reign supreme, consumers under 34 continue to veer away from the phone as the top way to communicate with brands, preferring digital-first channels like email, text and live chat. Interestingly, consumers 65+ also preferred live chat as a top method of communicating with retail customer service. This makes sense when we think about the experience of a new online shopper. An individual may find the perfect birthday present for their grandson, but have a question about whether batteries are included. Instead of trying to track down a phone number or email for customer service, there is a chat widget that can allow questions to be answered effortlessly.
As younger consumers begin to age, retailers will benefit from investing more heavily in self-service tools like chatbots. Although chatbots aren't always the first choice for communicating with customer service, 77% of consumers aged 18-24 and 67% of consumers aged 25-34 find chatbots helpful for retail support. Notably, chat allows you to instantly meet your customers where they are, which can be advantageous to both customer service organizations and first-time shoppers alike.
Older generations are more demanding while younger generations have lower expectations
Our survey found that the age group with the highest expectations when it comes to customer service are within the typical range of "heads of household": 34-54 years old. They also reported the most decisive and harshest consequences when it comes to poor customer service. For example, 57% of 24-54 year-olds surveyed think the customer is always right, as compared with only 15% of consumers 24 and under. Further, an average of 83% of consumers thinks they should be treated better for their loyalty, compared to only 62% of those 24 and under.
While the majority of older demographics all reported that they would reach out to a retailer after a bad customer service experience, the majority of consumers under 25 reported that they would take no action at all. That means negative experiences with the "heads of household of the future" may easily fall under the radar, and negative brand associations could build up over time. It's thus imperative to measure customer satisfaction and get ahead of problems before it is too late.
Customer service can be a differentiating factor
Interestingly, 77% of consumers under 25 reports that they are willing to spend more money for good customer service, compared to an average of 62%. This means that while younger consumers may be more forgiving when it comes to customer service, they still value it highly, and there is a huge opportunity for organizations to leverage customer service as a differentiator. It's clear that younger generations plan to continue to do their shopping online, and retailers should take this into account when planning out their supportive customer service practices.
As expectations for customer service continue to change alongside shifting shopping patterns, retailers should take the time to fully understand the nuances in how different generations see and interact with customer service. Knowing what different age groups want and need will allow customer service organizations to invest in the right technology, tools and strategies to meet the unique needs and expectations of the customer of tomorrow.

I recently attended an interfaith vigil honoring those murdered in Orlando. It was one of many happening here in northwest Indiana and around the country. There were many prayers offered. I think vigils like these are extremely important: they bring home the tragedy of what has happened. Without these rituals, there is the risk that these terrible events will just sweep by us in the 24-hour news cycle, leaving us unchanged.
Yesterday, I read an article on the Huffington Post entitled "I Will Not Pray for Orlando" by Jonathan Williams, a pastor in New York. Williams says he won't pray for Orlando … or for Newtown, Charleston, Aurora, Blacktown, or Columbine. He won't pray because, he says, God has already answered our prayers … and we're just not paying attention. "We have the God-given capability to stop dangerous people from buying assault rifles," writes Williams.
Williams will not pray. Instead, he says, he will will lobby for gun laws that are proven to limit gun violence, including a ban on assault rifles, and he will stand with his LGBT brothers and sisters who have who walk down the streets in fear of hate and bigotry and violence.
I have written about the theology of Earthseed and the ambitious goals of Earthseed. But I think the true test of a religion is how it helps us in times of crisis such as we are facing now.
The God of Earthseed is not a God who answers prayers. The God of Earthseed is Change, the very processes which Shape our lives and the world around us.
This weekend, Earthseed is repurposing the time we had set aside for our solstice celebration to instead hold a Rite of Remembrance for those who died in Orlando. You can join us on Zoom this Saturday, June 18, at 6pm ET, 5pm CT, 4pm MT, 3pm PT, by following this link. It will be a time to focus our thoughts, still our fears, and strengthen our purpose.
And then the real praying must begin. We must pray working. We must not pray that God will Change our circumstances. Change will happen, whether we will it or not. Rather, we must work to Shape Change, to Shape God, in the direction of justice and peace.
I know that gun legislation is not a panacea, but I believe it is part of the answer. So, tomorrow, we will hold a vigil for those who were killed by gun violence, as have so many others around the country. And then, may the real praying begin … the prayer that is work, the work that Changes, the work that Shapes Change.

Q: Documentation about the compressed AndroidManifest.xml file format I am looking for information about how the AndroidManifest.xml is encoded within an apk file.
In fact, this file is compressed in a specific format by aapt before being stored in the apk file.
I could try to reverse the format by looking into aapt source code, but maybe there is already some documentation around.
Thanks

A: It's Android binary XML. For what it's worth, resource XML files are also compiled to this binary form before packaging to the APK.
To decode it, you can use the axml library.

As the title implies, Kathryn Schulz takes her readers on an adventure to explore, the widely traveled yet rarely acknowledged, road of wrongness in her book Being Wrong: Adventures in the Margin of Error. Compelling insight is provided into the social construct of right and wrong. Through an examination of cultural norms, historical and philosophical perspectives, individual perceptions, and cognitive development, the author provides clues to why society has become almost obsessed with the notion of being right and continues to show contempt to the idea of being wrong. Most notably, Schulz offers an in-depth discussion on the role human senses play in how individuals interpret their surroundings and how confirmation bias can negatively influence ones' ability to consider evidence consistently. Furthermore, the concepts presented within the book surrounding judgement between right and wrong exist in daily life and can be revealed by understanding the underlying contributors to a person's beliefs.
Cultural norms have placed significant value on the concept of rightness as "they affirm our sense of being smart, competent, trustworthy, and in tune with our environment" (Shulz 4). The more important point to the authors story deals with the emotions and feelings associated with being wrong and how people learn, understand, ignore, and cope with mistakes once they discover that they have made one. The writer further explores the effect of social cues that reinforce attitudes making it difficult for people to accept mistakes. One reason for this may be, "a long history of associating error with evil" (Shulz 13). People generally have difficulty accepting responsibility for errors and when given a choice, would prefer to blame others for the mistake. As with all opposites, right cannot exist without wrong. "The debate over whether error is normal or abnormal is central to the history of wrongness" (Shulz 28). Discovering how our minds work helps to shed light on the debate.
Our minds, how they gain and process knowledge, are powerful components in the study of right versus wrong. Schulz argues that "the feeling of knowing something is incredibly convincing and inordinately satisfying, but it is not a very good way to gauge the accuracy of our knowledge" (Shulz 71). Our individual knowledge of the world and its inner workings stem from several sources, with some being more reliable than others. At times, our brains make inferences in an attempt to fill in the gaps of information that are missing. These interpretations made by the mind can feel right and be completely wrong. Similarly, Schulz explains that there are explicit and implicit beliefs that effect our choices. Beliefs can be formed by specific experiences while others are built from corollaries in our environments. Individual perception creates truth to the person directly experiencing the event. Evidence is often used to persuade a particular line of thinking. The feeling of knowing, developed beliefs, and how evidence is interpreted work in unison as internal factors to influence our reasoning ability and to form opinions.
In addition to the internal factors, Schulz discusses external factors that inspire beliefs and question the credibility of perceived knowledge. Society and communities offer a wide knowledgebase that can be accessed to strengthen and extend our own independent findings. "Depending on secondhand information makes our lives both much more efficient and much more interesting than they would otherwise be" (Shulz 141). These relationships can serve as useful tools to gain knowledge. When relying on this obtained knowledge one should consider, "if we often form our beliefs on the basis of our communities, we also form our communities on the basis of our beliefs" (Shulz 143). These communal beliefs can reinforce current knowledge without added value because of its familiarity has an acceptable comfort level. Internal and external forces inform ones' beliefs but inevitably can be ambiguous when searching for truth and breed significant inherent bias.
After examining how the mind works in conjunction with where beliefs come from, Schulz shifts to the most salient discussion of acceptance of wrongness and the ability to initiate change through lessons learned. The challenge put forth is to de-emphasize the act of being wrong itself and focus on what happens next as the author suggests that being wrong should be recognized as a step that allows people to change. Depending on the severity of the error, it is possible for belief systems to be shaken, explaining "our dislike for error, since most of us are at least somewhat averse to change" (Shulz 192). Instead of denying error, people should take advantage of the opportunity to embrace the concept of error as a prospect to learn and grow, dismissing the negative social stigma widely known as being wrong.
One of the more interesting points early in our reading approaches perception and how individual perceptions help to form personal understanding of naturally occurring events as well as personal interactions. Perception first guides and then becomes the reality by which people base their knowledge. Their perceived knowledge, in turn, leads to their decision-making abilities. Our senses can be deceptive, leaving personal perception open to inaccurate interpretations of actual events. "Perception, in other words, is the interpretation of sensation" (Shulz 56). When individuals experience the world through their senses of sight, touch, smell, and sound, strong emotions are generally formulated as a result of the events. These emotions are the basis for how people react to their environments and begin to establish the foundation of beliefs. "In a literal sense, a model of the world is a map, and that's basically what beliefs are, too: mental representation of our physical, social, emotional, spiritual, and political landscapes" (Shulz 92). Through learned belief systems, people are likely to develop convictions surrounding those beliefs and assign judgment, both consciously and unconsciously. Beliefs, perceptions, memory, and experiences have a tendency to guide behavior.

Financial transparency serves the Church's mission, says Vatican official
Credit: Bohumil Petrik/CNA.
In an exclusive interview with CNA, the director of the Vatican's financial watchdog stressed that the Holy See has pursued the goal of adopting international standards for financial transparency in accord with the Church's mission, and not to merely seek adherence to international standards. "The Holy See's path toward financial transparency has not been that of imitating other countries, nor that of applying international standards by analogy," Tomasso Di Ruzza , director of the Authority for Financial Information, stated. The main goal, he added, "was the ambitious one of adopting international standards coherently with the nature and the mission of the Holy See in the world." Di Ruzza, 40, was appointed director of the AIF in January. He had worked at the Holy See for 10 years, first as an international law expert at the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, and then at the AIF since 2011. Di Ruzza is credited as one of the main promoters of the path that consolidated the Holy See and Vatican City State's anti-money laundering and prudential supervision system over the last three years. "Our unique goal was to establish a financial system which would be solid, sustainable for the long term, and coherent with the nature of the Holy See and Vatican City State's domestic legal framework and sovereign prerogatives," Di Ruzza said. He added that "this path is not just linked to the commitments undertaken with the international community. It is a moral duty to the Church." Despite a decrease in the number of suspicious transactions reported, the Holy See's finances have often been under the spotlight because of alleged financial scandals, leading Vatican finances to be described like a place of illicit dealings. Di Ruzza did not want to comment on any specific case, but he underscored that "a system of prevention and countering, based on certain rules and procedures, has been established." "To say it with a metaphor, it is one thing is risk falling ill without an immune system, and another thing entirely to fall ill with a strong immune system," he added. The director of the authority then stressed that "unfortunately, possible attempts at illicit activities cannot be eradicated from their very roots, as these roots lie in an individual's soul and conduct." But "we can have an effective immune system, able to prevent and counter the conduct of individuals." The reporting system data is a proof of the consolidation of the vigilance system: in 2012, the AIF received six suspicious transactions reports; in 2013, 202; and in 2014, 147. After the issuing of new statutes for the AIF in November 2013, it was entrusted with prudential supervision, and given an extra office to handle the new responsibility. "Prudential supervision is a pillar of the system of vigilance" and is "foundational for dialogue with foreign vigilance authorities," Di Ruzza said The pursuit of financial transparency at the Vatican was initiated by Benedict XVI in 2010, involving many changes from 2011 to 2013. Di Ruzza said the system is now settling down, with a comprehensive set of regulations having been introduced in October 2013. Di Ruzza stressed that the regulation on prudential supervision "follows the requirements of Vatican law, and at the same time meets the need to adhere to the best European and international standards" in terms of supervision. He also discussed the importance of the Vatican's own norms, and the European Commission's acknowledgement, in a 2009 convention, of the institutional, juridical, and financial framework of the Holy See and Vatican City State. "A really effective and sustainable anti-money laundering system will arise only from a balance between the adoption of international standards and coherence to the domestic framework," Di Ruzza said. This ongoing process should help to strengthen relations with the AIF's foreign counterparts, Di Ruzza believes. He expressed hope that the Bank of Italy will soon regard the Institute for Religious Works (the 'Vatican bank') as an institute with an equivalent anti-money laundering system. "The AIF has fostered dialogue and mutual trust with the Bank of Italy, and hopes to be soon able to formalize channels of collaboration and exchange of information, as it already did with the Italian Financial Intelligence Unit." In the end, Di Ruzza identifies the profound reason for the Holy See's commitment to financial transparency as "the need for the Holy See to be present with its teaching at this important institutional table." He said the Holy See's commitment to financial transparency deals on both moral, institutional, and juridical levels. "The Holy See's transparency comes out of the coherence between the commitments undertaken in international tables and a deep moral duty," Di Ruzza said, adding that this transparency "is not just functional for safe transactions," but is also a factor that shows "finances are a mean, not and end" for the Holy See, and it is "directed to the development of persons and peoples." "Commitment to this model of transparency, which perhaps lacked some visibility in the past and was often questioned, is now visible, and we can harvest its fruits," Di Ruzza concluded.

Or as the old intro used to say dare to be bold! So here's my being bold.
I am a member of Brotherhood of Spacers, a sov-null alliance currently holding space in Perrigen Falls. While a member of an alliance, I am not being a candidate for this alliance only, although my focus might be weighted towards 0.0 as it is the area of the game I am most familiar with.
I am a candidate for you the players: the real strength of EVE Online.
Through my years of playing this game, I have really come to realise that the primary strength of this game is the social structures that exist within the game. I'm not necessarily speaking of alliance or corps, but also of communities like the Incursion communities, groups like Bombers' Bar, Spectre Fleet, or channels like Broadcast for Reps.
I would love for those community aspects to be strengthened even perhaps through in-games means, perhaps UI/UX-wise.
My second point is that this great game needs to remain dynamic. While groups can start a chain of events that lead to great content like the recent Tribute War, I feel that CCP could help motivate this kind of change. I will not claim that I have any ready-made answer as to how CCP could help the ball moving, but I will gladly participate with my input of whatever changes CCP might present to the CSM.
As your CSM, I will strive to be your voice. While I do not keep a blog, or host a podcast, I am an ever present part of my alliance's online and offline presence. My alliance mates, and people beyond the confines of my blues, know that they can count on me when the need arises.
I have played EVE since November 2012 when I created my first character. Less than a day in the trial, I chose to subscribe as I found the scenery beautiful. After spending some time in my newbro days in a small corp, I went my own ways towards highsec missioning in my solo corp. While I didn't take part in massive fights, I followed the EVE metagame on Twitter, Reddit, and through forums and blogs. I am an active member of #tweetfleet and will gladly partake in any discussion about the future of the game (hence my candidacy).
Following the 2014 "This is EVE" trailer, I decided to shed my HS hem and join with Brave Newbies Inc. where I learnt so much. I have forged some of my strongest friendships with the people with whom I have shared space, corp, and comms.
I am currently fulfilling some non-critical roles in my alliance. I have worked with recruitment, diplo, and some light small gang FC'ing. I think that being a CSM would not impact my current roles.
In my real life, I work for the Main Library of Copenhagen in the logistics dept. My work hours allow me to dedicate most of my free time to EVE.
Finally, I'm always available on Twitter @minustar or in game. I pride myself in answering every eve-mail I should receive. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.
Fly safe, dangerously, or however you like.
In the beginning, there was pain and despair. And death. Immense tragedies and terrible catastrophies.
And here's an itemised list of what things I would like to see implemented by CCP together with the CSM.
Game mechanics should encourage dynamic PVP and PVE play styles.
Every mechanic should have a counter play.
System security should change depending on the activity. The more ratting is done, higher sec. More PVP, lower sec. System security band shouldn't change and should remain tied to the static base security status.
Third party kill boards are great, but there should be an in-game ability to search killmails one has participated in.
The drone UI needs a revamp. Drone health bars should update while tethered and repairing.
Proper beards and long hair for male characters.
The New Eden system should have a memorial to lost friends.
Right-clicking on a corpse should have a "Show Character Info" option.
Contracts need to show which corpses are being contracted.
An ESI endpoint to collect character sheet notes.
Hovering over the IG clock should also display the local time according to the PC settings.
Communications officers should be able to send IG notification pop-ups.
Due to various personal threats made by this pilot i wish to state that a vote for this candidate will do nothing but further damage the public brand image of the CSM.
While Stellan is a very passionate and enthusiastic player, these types of people should not be considered for CSM members.
I recognise that there has been issues in the past, and I'll admit my doing then. I apologise for the issues. There's been water under the bridge since.
I'm not sure that's only for you to decide. You mention several community structures in your OP. I agree that the community is what makes this game so great. Does community and working together go so far as trying to white knight a corp or leaking APIs when you don't get your way? I recognize that these actions and many others are completely valid and acceptable forms of Eve gameplay, but they're hardly actions that would promote and encourage discussion and/or change for good wouldn't you think? How would this translate to being an effective voice within the CSM?
Please note, this is not a troll post, this is purely a clarification of facts.
You made personal threats against other players (indicating physical harm out of game).
this is not a quality trait of someone who should be considered a representative of the community and the community should be aware of this.
*snip* 35. Posting of chat logs outside the Crime & Punishment forum channel is prohibited.
The posting of chat logs between player parties is prohibited on all forum channels of the EVE Online forums, with the exception of the Crime & Punishment Channel where they can be posted as part of stories in the Pirate Story Thread.
Specific rules regarding the omission of pilot names apply in this instance. Further details can be found in the rules stickies in the Crime & Punishment forum channel.
Restoring in this post can result in a forum ban. *snip* ISD Max Trix.
Stellan Crendraven realmente eres dominicano?
vives en la Republica Dominicana?
Pues por lo que veo en tu canal de Youtube y todo el contenido que aparece de ti no hay nada en español, es mas por lo que veo aparentarias mas ser nordico que caribeño.
I dont thing Stellan Crendraven is from the DOminican Republic nor that he lives here. I may be wrong but I did some reserch on the Guy and no content in spanish and his youtube channel.
No, this was a mistake on my part and have asked CCP to correct it. I apologise for the confusion. Hopefully, the error will be fixed soon.
Since this mistake led me to you....endorse the cause #QuieroEVEenEspañol ...we need a localize spanish client. +400 million people speak the second most spoken language in the world yet in New Eden it is just a whisper.
If want to have my vote and tons of EVE Players that speak spanish do this. We are growing in EVE faster than any other cultural/language base with dozens of countries all over the globe after the alpha clone patch ran. It's time for CCP to act on this….we need the support of the CSM on this.
Yes, EVE should also come en Español. I was actually surprised that CCP chose French over Spanish as their latest localisation effort when the Spanish speaking community is several times larger than the French one.
An interesting idea. There should be no "free lunch" in the game.

После того как отношения группы с Gull Records, выпустившей первые два альбома группы, наконец закончились (в результате судебного процесса музыкантам пришлось пожертвовать всеми правами на первые два альбома и демозаписи, однако как отметил Роб Хэлфорд, «то было абсолютное благословение Божие»), Judas Priest подписали, благодаря Полу Аткинсону контракт с Columbia Records. Компания выдала группе аванс в 60 000 фунтов стерлингов и порекомендовала в качестве продюсера Роджера Гловера. Однако у продюсера и группы отношения поначалу складывались не очень хорошо. Гловер упрекал их в недостаточном профессионализме, а музыканты, похоже решили сделать всё без продюсера.

…они (Judas Priest) недостаточно профессионально вели себя в студии. Как Кен, так и Глен вели себя слишком энергично, словно находились на сцене. Настоящие профессионалы держатся в студии более рационально.

Однако в конце концов всё наладилось. Группа рассталась со своим прежним барабанщиком Аланом Муром и пригласила впоследствии ставшего весьма известным сессионным барабанщиком Саймона Филлипса, которому на тот момент было всего 19 лет.

Альбом был записан за три месяца: с января — март 1977 года в Ramport Studios и получился, не без участия Роджера Гловера, несколько более «мягким», нежели предыдущий альбом группы. Так, по настоянию продюсера, вместо планируемой к выпуску в альбоме кавер-версии песни Race with the Devil (впоследствии в 2001 году вышла в переиздании альбома на CD), в альбом была включена хард-роковая версия известной баллады Джоан Баэз Diamonds & Rust.

Альбом достиг достаточного успеха и вывел группу на новый профессиональный уровень. Роб Хэлфорд, например, отметил, что его стиль пения, принесший ему успех, окончательно сложился именно в этом альбоме.

Sin After Sin стал хронологически первым альбомом Judas Priest, который достиг «золотого» статуса по оценке RIAA; альбом занял № 23 место в чартах Великобритании и № 49 в Швеции.

Конверт альбома оформлял выпускник Королевского колледжа искусств Боб Карлос-Кларк. Обложка альбома стала последней, на которой логотип группы был написан готическими буквами.

Название было взято по строкам песни Genocide из предыдущего альбома группы Sad Wings of Destiny:

A series of record-breaking wildfires culminating with 2018's devastating Camp Fire propelled the California utility giant PG&E into lawsuits, $30 billion in liabilities and, ultimately, bankruptcy. Under new state laws, regulated utilities will have a hard time avoiding blame in fires where their equipment is involved—so what's ahead for PG&E's peers and their shareholders when a deadly blaze could spell bankruptcy? What happens when the California dream of living near nature is in direct conflict with disruptive tragedies fueled by climate change? Join us with energy and utility experts Tom Dalzell, Dian Grueneich, Loretta Lynch, J.D. Morris, Mark Toney, and Laura Wisland for a discussion on the future of investor-owned utilities, renewable power, and winners and losers in an energy market hammered by climate disruption.
Price: $20. Discounts and fees may apply.
Experts will explain how climate change could negatively affect your property, your insurance rates, your health and your quality of life – and what you can do about it. Cosponsored by Citizens' Climate Lobby, San Mateo Chapter and Citizens Environmental Council of Burlingame.
Many heating systems In California are transitioning from steam produced by natural gas burning boilers, to hot water produced by electricity via heat recovery chillers or electric boilers, to meet the new GHG emission standards. A study of the Stanford heat recovery chiller plant by the Architectural Engineering Institute found that it significantly increased efficiency, reduced carbon emissions, and reduced potable water use. This presentation demonstrates how the plant converted the campus from steam to Low Temperature Hot Water (LTHW) distribution, converted buildings from steam to LTHW heat exchanger, and provided alternate solutions for process steam. We will look at the Stanford campus conversion and the in-progress design at UC Davis. We will share the design and planning process of converting the distribution piping, including a synopsis of different pipe materials considered, hydraulic calculations, load evaluation, campus regional heat exchangers, building heat exchanger design criteria, expected building dT, and replacement for process steam in buildings.
Price: $70. Discounts and fees may apply.

Nelly and Ashanti Reunited at Fat Joe and Ja Rule's Verzuz Battle — Will They Reconcile?
By Tatayana Yomary
The early 2000s was an unforgettable time for hip-hop and R&B. Many singers and rappers were busy cementing their place in music history, including Nelly and Ashanti. After Nelly's career catapulted with the release of his single "Country Grammar" in June 2000 and Ashanti's self-titled debut album reached No. 1 on the charts, all eyes were on the stars.
The pair eventually met and were rumored to start dating in 2003, but they, unfortunately, broke up in 2013.
Fast forward to Fat Joe and Ja Rule's Sept. 14, 2021, Verzuz battle. Both Nelly and Ashanti graced the stage to perform their hits with the stars. And of course, social media was watching and anticipating the pair having a moment together.
Seeing the pair together made social media nostalgic for their relationship, and many people are wondering why Nelly and Ashanti break up and if there's a chance they'll get back together. Read on to get the 4-1-1.
Nelly and Ashanti allegedly broke up due to an act of betrayal.
It's true that Nelly and Ashanti were once considered one of hip-hop's power couples. Nelly is a talented rapper and hitmaker while Ashanti's heavenly vocals and writing skills have established her as one of the greats.
According to HITC, Nelly and Ashanti first met in 2003 at a Grammy Awards press conference where it was rumored that they fell for each other.
Although everyone knew that Nelly and Ashanti were an item, the former couple made it a point to keep their relationship private. The outlet shares that the couple was on and off for years.
But Nelly was very serious about Ashanti and even shared an interest in marrying the songstress. Unfortunately, those plans never came to fruition as the pair separated in 2013.
While there was tons of speculation surrounding their breakup over the years, it wasn't until 2015 that Ashanti hinted at the reason for the demise of the relationship.
Source: NBC
According to Cheat Sheet, Ashanti first hinted at their breakup on The Meredith Vieira Show in 2015.
"I think sometimes when people have their own insecurities, it allows them to act out of character," Ashanti said. "I've been betrayed. You just have to grow. You have to grow up. You have to accept responsibility for the things that you do. I'm not a big fan of people being cowards."
The star went on to say that she's "in a different place now."
The 40-year-old threw even more shade Nelly's way at a concert in 2018. As Ashanti took the stage, she told the crowd, "I've been betrayed before. Publicly at that."
A member of the audience shouted, "F--k Nelly!" She then pointed the audience member out and said, "Word."
Fans took that as confirmation that Nelly crossed Ashanti during their relationship, and that's why they broke up. However, Nelly has never spoken about the reason for their breakup.
Nelly and Ashanti reunited at Fat Joe and Ja Rule's Verzuz battle on Sept. 14, 2021.
Naturally, Fat Joe and Ja Rule's Verzuz battle has already been dubbed one of the best face-offs in Verzuz history. Both rappers have many timeless hits and dedicated fan bases.
Fans in the audience and on social media were excited to see various musicians perform during the battle, including Nelly and Ashanti. While fans expected Ashanti to make an appearance since she has songs with both rappers, no one was really sure that she'd actually perform.
Once Ashanti hit the stage, social media lost it. Not only did she look beautiful and perform well, but many fans were also anticipating a run-in with Nelly on stage.
A post shared by The Shade Room (@theshaderoom)
Nelly didn't let fans down. He walked across the stage to Ja Rule's section to give Ashanti a hug (captured by The Shade Room). And of course, social media ate it up. There have been nonstop jokes about the moment. Some fans are even sharing their hopes that the pair will reconcile.
However, social media shouldn't hold their breath. Ashanti has already been very vocal about having moved on from the situation. Plus, Nelly and his longtime girlfriend Shantel Jackson have recently ended their relationship. So Nelly may be looking to stay single for some time.
Nelly walked up to Ashanti like, "where my hug?" #verzuz pic.twitter.com/rT2jrqvyVZ

Ashanti is notorious for keeping her personal life private, so there's no telling whether she is single or in a committed relationship with someone else at this time.
It was nice seeing Nelly and Ashanti reunite, but the chances of the pair reconciling are slim to none.

It's made of LG ABS polymers and is desinged to hold in excess of 1000 pounds on top of itself and still be easy to remove (it takes about 2 minutes), This hard truck bed cover uses a dual lock system for security and has double bulb gaskets all around to make the seal with your truck bed near waterproof.

So you can live in peace and harmony, you can see the wonder all around you, you live in gratitude, in happiness.

Brazil enacts university quota law to widen access
BRASILIA — Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff enacted legislation Wednesday that reserves half the enrollment at federal universities for students from public schools and gives priority to black, indigenous and mixed-race students. The law was approved earlier this month by the Senate after 13 years of debate, and was enacted by the president alongside the ministers of education and racial equality, Aloizio Mercadante and Luiza Bairros, the presidential press service said. "The legislation addresses a double challenge: first, democratizing access to universities and maintaining high quality of education," Rousseff said. The law requires 50 percent of seats at federal universities to go to students who completed their secondary education in public schools.
In Brazil, many wealthy families send their children to private schools, where the standard of education is often much higher. The 50-percent quota will include a number of seats for ethnic minorities, proportional to the demographics in each state of the South American country. Of Brazil's 59 federal universities, 32 already have limited quota systems in place. More than half of Brazil's population of 191 million is of African origin, but recent findings show that only 2.2 percent of Afro-Brazilians currently have access to universities.

Q: Magento 2.3 Error on Delete All Test Data from Database We are in the process of migrating to Magento 2.3, but need to remove all test data from the database and reset all increment ID's back to 1.  Having some troubles removing all order information:
SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0;

TRUNCATE TABLE `tax_order_aggregated_created`;
TRUNCATE TABLE `tax_order_aggregated_updated`;

ALTER TABLE `sales_order` AUTO_INCREMENT=1;

SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 1;

Produces the following SQL Error:

TRUNCATE TABLE quote
Cannot truncate a table referenced in a foreign key constraint (m2.quote_address, CONSTRAINT QUOTE_ADDRESS_QUOTE_ID_QUOTE_ENTITY_ID FOREIGN KEY (quote_id) REFERENCES m2.quote (entity_id))

A: I was checking your SQL query and there seems to be no error or mistake on it, it should work on a MySQL CLI but having said that, the only thing I can assume is:

you run your SQL query on a phpMyadmin SQL interface with the Enable foreign key checks checked. Usually, it is found at the lower right of the SQL query interface.
  Try to uncheck it and your query should work.

Note: In order to reset the Order number, you have to include this in your query, TRUNCATE TABLE sequence_order_1 — this table is responsible for generating the increment_id or the order number on the frontend.
Hope that helps!


Manufacturers working with metal and worrying about metal performance are all too familiar with the obstacles that come along with coating, painting, bonding, printing, or sealing it. While the uses of metal in manufacturing are countless and exist in numerous industries, the common denominator is ensuring the appropriate surface cleanliness prior to surface critical processes to guarantee successful adhesion. Common surface cleanliness gauges—dyne inks and water break—are subjective and do not offer quantitative results. Water break can be messy and time consuming and dyne is destructive to the part and dangerous to the user. While these methods can offer some insight into surface cleanliness, they are less than ideal.
The Aerodef Manufacturing conference was held last week in Ft. Worth Texas. This event is a smaller regional manufacturing show focusing on aerospace and defense industries. The show typically features technical papers on a variety of topics, a small trade show floor, and a few receptions to allow for networking and socialization.

Q: Prove Harmonic Series Statement Show that for all n ≥ 0: H2n ≤ 1 + n
I have already done it for bigger or equal to one to prove that it eventually reaches infinity but how would I do this one?

A: The inequality holds for $n \ge 1$ ($H_0$ is not defined). Indeed, for $n \ge 1$,
\begin{align}
H_{2^n} &= 1 + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3} + \cdots + \frac{1}{2^n}\\
&< 1 + \left(\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2}\right) + \left(\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4}\right) + \cdots + \Bigl(\underbrace{\frac{1}{2^{n-1}} + \cdots + \frac{1}{2^{n-1}}}_{2^{n-1}\, \text{times}}\Bigr)\\
&= 1 + \underbrace{1 + 1 + \cdots + 1}_{\text{$n-1$ times}}\\
&< 1 + n

Anche i cani vanno in paradiso (All Dogs Go to Heaven: The Series) è una serie televisiva a cartoni animati prodotta da Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Animation e distribuito dalla Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Television, e basata sui personaggi dei film Charlie - Anche i cani vanno in paradiso e Le nuove avventure di Charlie. La sua ambientazione è come quella del secondo film ma presenta delle incongruenze con il film, come ad esempio:

 Carface alla fine del secondo film viene risucchiato all'Inferno ma nella serie è vivo e sulla Terra come gli altri personaggi;
 Charlie e Sasha, pur rimanendo insieme alla fine del film, nella serie non si sono mai dati un appuntamento (condividendo anche una relazione amore/odio);
 Itchy Itchiford, nonostante decida di rimanere in Paradiso (sempre alla fine del film), nella serie è ancora vivo;
 Charlie ed Itchy vivono in un piccolo condominio abbandonato di San Francisco, e svolgono delle missioni per Annabelle come "angeli custodi";
 Killer, l'assistente di Carface l'antagonista minore del primo film (Charlie - Anche i cani vanno in paradiso), appare nella serie facendo ritorno.
 Solo per questa serie animata, sono stati introdotti due nuovi personaggi femminili: Bess, una cagnetta dolce e gentile che è anche la fidanzata di Itchy, e Belladonna, la malefica cugina di Annabelle.

Doppiaggio

Sigla TV
Solo ed esclusivamente nella sua prima visione assoluta su TMC, all'interno del contenitore Zap Zap, questo cartone aveva la sua sigla italiana ufficiale. Intitolata proprio come il nome del film originale, essa è una quasi traduzione del testo originale "A Little Heaven" ad opera di Gino Catini e Umberto Decimo, con una nuova musica sempre di Decimo ed il canto di Massimo Talamo.
