Wife Swap's insane pairing: A conservationist snake lady versus a faith-based animal killer
Thu Mar 19, 2020 at 5:12pm ET
By April Neale
Wife Swap is back on TV with opposites paired up. Pic credit: Paramount
On tonight's Wife Swap on Paramount Network, we have a confluence of the two Americas coming together under separate roofs.
Think a female version of Blue State versus Red State. Two women who are polar opposites in matters of politics, religion, and world view on animal rights having to stomach each other's kin and home decor.
It's going to be on like Donkey Kong as Kim, the snake loving conservationist, enters the domicile of "Blessed" sign loving Jenna, married to Bubba, who "laughs, loves, lives" to hunt.
This show went there, and all we can say is we are pulling up to the bumper tonight to see just how much fun each woman has in vastly differing domiciles.
Just how long will it last, and if the miracle of miracles goes down. Perhaps an accord is reached. Or not!
Who are the victims of Wife Swap tonight?
Meet Jenna and Kim, one is a reptile loving conservationist and the other is a super faith-based mother of six (quads too) who loves to hunt.
Jenna is married to Bubba, of course, and they love to rub the first deer kill of the season's blood all over their faces.
68 Whiskey: Where is it filmed?
Kim is a hands-off parent who has never killed anything in her life. She free-ranges her son Cade and lets her 83-year old mother-in-law mow their yard as Cade gets to do whatever the heck he wants.
And she lets her many snakes out of their cages, and she has a herd of chihuahuas and motley looking canines running all over her home.
Bubba has strong opinions and is always right.
Bo, Charlie, Ellie, Tripp, Reagan, and Riley are Bubba and Jenna's children. Jenna says things like "God bless America," and she draws the line at the snakes being let out.
Kim loves the fact they have horses on the property then is nearly shot at as the grounds she is living on are all part of the hunting preserve that the Bubba-kin own.
Meanwhile, Jenna gets to see a wall full of glam shots of Kim with her snakes as Kim gets to sift through nothing but kiddie photos and signage everywhere in the "Blessed" and "Live Love Laugh" Home Goods decor realm.
What happens in the preview of Wife Swap?
Jenna and Kim have a chance to look around their new homes.
First up to enter the house is Jenna, who groans and says: "Oh my gosh. Snakes. Oh, I don't know if I'm gonna be able to sleep with that thing in the house."
She then spies the glam photos of Kim with her snakes and says: "Is that the mama? Oh, goodness. What is wrong with her?"
Meanwhile, Kim sees photos of all of Bubba and Jenna's kids. She says: "They have got lots of babies. Oh, wait. No! Oh my god, they have four… They have quads? Is it quads? Is that right?
She looks at a picture of four sets of baby feet memorialized in paint. "That's so many little feet."
(groans) – "Oh, there's more."
Kim then notices the plethora of dead animals mounted on the walls of this family's home. She says: "They love to hunt. And there is a lot of skulls around here. I have never killed anything."
The manuals for each wife
Kim and Jenna have each written a manual to guide the new wife with the running of their home.
Jenna writes: "My name is Jenna, and my husband is Bubba. My father owns a large shooting preserve. The whole family loves to hunt and fish, and our family honors the old tradition of rubbing the blood of the first deer you kill on your face."
(Kim sniffs back tears and sighs) Wow.
And Jenna gets a load of Kim's: "My name is Kim. I am an animal conservationist. (Jenna groans and says: "I wonder how extreme she is with that.")
Kim continues her statement: "At different times throughout the day, we get the snakes out and handle them."
Jenna says out loud: "Oh no we don't. No we don't. We don't, I don't."
Kim explains to Jenna how they have no hands-on parenting with Cade, how his grandmother does his chores, and how the snakes have the run of the house.
Don't even play, you know you want to see this episode tonight:

Abraham Reles was born in a poverty stricken area of Brownsville, Brooklyn, New York, in 1907 to Jewish-Austrian immigrants. It wasn't long before young Abe turned to a life of crime. Brownsville was the birthplace and incubator of many Jewish gangsters. Stories of Louis "Lepke" Buchalter, the garment district kingpin, Benjamin Seigel, the future casino emperor, Meyer Lansky and Arthur "Dutch Schultz" Flegenheimer, put young Abe on his path to wealth, fame and ultimately his destruction. Unbeknownst to him, these men would shape and determine the direction his life would take. Abe would become one of the most infamous contract killers ever hired by Murder Incorporated.
Abraham Reles was short, but had long arms and hands like a catcher's glove. He was given the name "Kid Twist", a nickname given to a previous vicious killer from the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Another myth exists on how Abe got the name "Kid Twist". It was supposedly after his favorite type of candy. Abe was very adept at using his weapon of choice the ice pick. He was so good at jamming it into the contracts' ear, that many of his victims' deaths were deemed as brain hemorrhagesIn the 1920's the Shapiro brothers, led by Meyer Shapiro, ran the rackets of Brooklyn with the Amberg brothers nipping at their heels. Prohibition, a Government experiment gone badly, gave rise to many groups of booze barons and hijackers. If you wanted a slot or vending machine, you had to get it from the Shapiros. Abe and his friend Martin "Buggsy" Goldstein worked for the Shapiro brothers when they were still teenagers. Soon the two boys were committing petty crimes, busting up strikes and causing other distractions for their money-hungry employers. During one such event, Abe was arrested, prosecuted and sentenced to a two-year sentence in an Upstate New York juvenile facility. The Shapiro's never came to the legal assistance of their faithful employee. This inaction, by the Shapiro brothers, would prove fatal.When young Abe was released from prison he looked up his old friend Buggsy. He found him in their old neighborhood in East New York. Abe and Buggsy renewed their friendship. They were soon heavily into the slot machine business with help from George Defeo, who was linked to Meyer Lansky, the mob's accountant. Lansky was willing to help because his organization did not have exposure to the poorer sections of Brooklyn. Through this alliance with Reles, Lansky was able to gain a sizeable foothold in the Brownsville, East New York and Ocean Hill sections of Brooklyn. For Reles, it was the sort of backing he needed to stay in business and to stay alive.
Business was good. It wasn't long before the two friends, Reles and Goldstein, made the Shapiro hit list. It was time to kill or be killed; you could almost here Abe say, "Time to go to the mattress," a mob term for starting a war. One night Abe and Buggsy received a call from a friend that the Shapiros had left their headquarters. They jumped in their vehicle, along with George Defeo, and headed for East New York. It was a set up. The three were greeted by gunfire. Abe was shot in the back, Buggsy was shot in the face and Defeo escaped unharmed. To add insult to injury, Meyer Shapiro found Abe's girlfriend walking on the street. He forced her into the car and took her to an open field where he beat and raped her repeatedly.
It was hours after the attack that Abe's girlfriend told him what had occurred. Abe tasted blood. He hatched an elaborate scheme with the help from an Italian gang named the Ocean Hill Hooligans. Reles and Goldstein struck up an alliance with Frank "The Dasher" Abbundando and Harry "Happy" Maione who jumped at the chance to get rid of the Shapiro brothers for a piece of the action. Each side made attempt after attempt to kill one another, but to no avail. Abe Reles's band of killers finally caught wind that Meyer was heading to one of his safe houses on Blake Avenue in East New York. Abe set up inside of the location and waited for him. He sat there motionless in the unlit hallway and waited for his prey to arrive. Unfortunately for Reles Meyer didn't show up, but his younger brother Irving. Reles wasn't going to let his disappointment ruin a perfectly executed plan. Abe grabbed a surprised Irving in the hallway of 691 Blake Avenue. He beat, kicked and then shot him numerous times.
Two months later, so intent on revenge Abe shot Meyer Shapiro in the head in a Manhattan tenement. Three years later the last Shapiro brother, William, was abducted off of the street and brought to one of the gang's hideouts. They beat him unmercifully and stuffed his body in a sack. The Reles's gang then drove him out to the Canarsie section of Brooklyn where they planned on burying their victim in the flats. Before they could finish, they were spotted them and the killers fled the scene. The curious man began to unearth what the men were burying when he found the sack. When William's body was brought to Bellvue for an autopsy, the medical examiner made a frightening discovery. William Shapiro had dirt in his lungs. He had been buried alive.
Before there ever was a Sammy "The Rat" Gravano, there was Abe "Kid Twist" Reles. In 1940, under the order of then District Attorney, William O'Dwyer, Abe Reles was picked up on a murder charge. He was implicated in a series of murders. When it was certain that he would be sent to Sing Sing Prison to sit upon "Old Sparky", Reles decided to become an informant for the District Attorney's Office and prosecutor Burton Turkus. Reles chose to symbolically spill his guts, like he had done to so many others on Good Friday. Needless to say, Abe's decision to become a stool pigeon did not sit well with many high-ranking mob officials. Underworld figures scrambled for hiding spots and to terminate those who new too much. The entire Syndicate that Lepke had helped establish was now in jeopardy.
The information Reles gave on May 16, 1940, led to the arrest, indictment, conviction and electrocution of one of his former bosses, Louis "Lepke" Buchalter. Lepke's conviction was a major set back for the Syndicate, however, the most damaging Reles testimony was against Murder Incorporated. One by one, District Attorney William O'Dwyer prosecuted reputed killers from the organization, Harry "Pittsburgh Phil" Strauss, Martin "Buggsy" Goldstein Abe's childhood friend, Mendy Weiss, Harry "Happy" Maione and put them to death in the Sing Sing electric chair.
Still not satisfied, William O'Dwyer, on his road to becoming Mayor of New York City, had bigger fish to fry. He planned a trial on November 12th 1941, for Albert Anastasia, the man who ran Murder Incorporated with Louis "Lepke" Buchalter. The indictment was based solely on the corroboration and testimony of his star witness, Abe Reles. In the early morning hours of November 12th, Abe Reles, guarded by six police detectives, mysteriously flew from the window of room 623 of the Half Moon Hotel, in Coney Island, Brooklyn. The true events that took place that morning will never be known. Was he thrown? Was he pushed? Or was he trying to escape? When "Kid Twist" fell from the window, so did the truth.
Judas wasn't the only one who sold out his friends.


SANTA CRUZ -- The steady, heavy rains that put December in the record books for rainfall shouldn't lull people into a false sense of security that the area's water supply is flush for summer.
In a snapshot review Monday of the city of Santa Cruz Water Department's supply presented to the city Water Commission, conservation manager Toby Goddard said more rain is needed to prevent mandatory restrictions in summer water use.
Restrictions for the city's 90,000 water customers, including residents from Davenport to Capitola, were last in place in 2009.
"We're just about spot-on for a normal water supply this year," Goddard said. "The amount if water is one thing. Timing and distribution is another. If we had control, we'd ask for rain late in the season to carry us through."
Local rainfall amounts measured 164 percent of normal by the end of December. However, the storm track shifted north in January and the area has since weathered a warm dry spell.
January dry spells are common, but the length of time without any rain in what is usually the wettest month of the year, is worrisome for water officials.
With no rain for the past three weeks, daily flows in the San Lorenzo River have subsided to below normal levels for the first time this year, Goddard said.
The National Weather Service Climate Prediction Center issued a 90-day outlook that shows below normal precipitation across the Central Coast, he said.
"We will need more rain to give us a normal year's water supply" Goddard said. "One wet month doesn't give us a whole year's supply."
Monday's supply status report was one of three reports water officials will make before March in determining whether to call for the mandatory restrictions. The next report is expected at the end of the month. The final report will be delivered the third week of March.
The water supply evaluation comes amid a number of high-profile regional developments.
Last week, the Santa Cruz Local Agency Formation Commission, which weighs boundary changes and applications to expand a municipality's sphere of influence, approved a new policy that requires a thorough water impact assessment accompany such requests.
Also, a Santa Cruz judge recently ruled that LAFCO can review an application by UC Santa Cruz and the Santa Cruz Water Department to extend new water service to an undeveloped part of campus for expansion plans.
The Santa Cruz City Council and Soquel Creek Water District board also agreed to study a design for a proposed desalination plant to offset drought.

Q: Core Plot - Hide graph beyond one side of axis I'm looking for a way to hide parts of a graph (namely the axes and plot) on a certain side of an axis (enclosed by the red boxes in the image below).  I would like the labels to still be visible and the graph to still be scrollable.

I've tried setting visibleRange but it hides the axes for a fixed range, and doesn't quite work when the graph is scrollable.
Thanks in advance for any help.

A: Set padding on the plot area frame. See the Plot Gallery example app for sample code.

A: Just i have an idea, but i am not sure whether this will satisfy you or not.
I have used the axisContstrains property for both X and Y axis.
So the plots inside your boxes are not plotted for me. I hope this will help to this questions.

An experiment was executed with ten crop sequences during 2010-17 at C.S. Azad University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh under All India Coordinating Research Project on Cropping systems. All these sequences were evaluated for their soil electrochemical and nutrient analysis. Results revealed that improvement in soil electrochemical properties (pH, EC and OC) and available NPK content after harvest was achieved by Hyb. Rice-wheat-green gram (G+R) among four rice based cropping sequences, while these were achieved by Maize-garlic-green gram (G+R) cropping sequence among six maize based cropping sequences. Maximum available nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium status (263, 14.90 and 223 kg/ha respectively) after harvest were recorded in Hyb. Rice-wheat-green gram (G+R) among rice based cropping sequences and among maize based cropping sequences, Maize-garlic- green gram (G+R) showed maximum available N, P and K of 259.2, 14.5 and 222 kg/ha respectively.


I've worked with Komodo for 3 quarters now on a variety of projects and I would recommend them a hundred times over. I've really enjoyed working with a professional, data minded company. Every project that I've collaborated with Komodo on has shown me a few key traits of theirs. First, Komodo is an extremely professional company. Lu leads the team by example and you know you are getting a ruthlessly efficient and enormously competent group who work with a friendly but professional attitude. Second, as a person with no formal analytical training, I appreciate their effort to be accessible from start to finish of a project both physically and mentally. They work hard to understand what our needs are and what would make our project successful. They are always available for questions and to make sure that the project stays on course. They are still adaptable when it matters, they understand the difference between gently ushering a project back on course to it's intended purpose and being flexible in shifting gears or making adjustments for the benefit of the project. Komodo is nimble and are able to get to the root of what we are asking. They also provide results in an easily digestible manner that helps me understand the significance of their findings. They work hard to become experts in the subject at hand so they can provide critical and effective guidance on experiment design and implementation as well as the analyses of results.
Komodo came in when our company is at a phase where we need to make important data-driven decisions. The transition phase was seamless due to the willingness to work with our internal teams and the technological knowledge from Komodo team. Komodo immediately carried out exploratory data analysis, structure and execute on a discovery process. They quickly produced outcomes that are useful, iterative, and high quality for analytics as well as the executive team. Komodo was eager to not just do what we ask of them, but to really dive into the root problems and help us to fix the cause, not just make quick fixes that lead to complications later. At the same time, they have coached and enabled the internal team to perform necessary steps and reinforce the standard processes that sets the company up for success.
We engaged Lu and Joe for a project that lasted about 5 months. They were diligent about gathering all the data they needed to accomplish the tasks we laid out for them, and gave regular updates as their work progressed. Some requirements changed over time and Lu and Joe were always easy-going and willing to adjust as necessary. They were professional and punctual and I would gladly hire them again for future work.
We've grown tremendously in the past three years, and one of our big challenges has been analyzing our data, as it comes from disparate sources. We have data from our internal database, product, sales, customer success, finance, and so on — and no overall place to combine these data sets and gain a comprehensive analysis. We've used out-of-the-box reporting services in the past, but the data they presented didn't capture some of the nuances in our business, and also didn't allow us to see a holistic view of all of the company's data. Lu and the rest of the team have provided key analytical support that allowed us to choose and implement a business intelligence tool and customize analytics to how our business works. They are professional, prioritize our needs, and work very quickly. We've been working with them for several months, and we are lucky to have their experience and expertise!
With strong product management, clear guidance on methodologies, and preferred patterns, Komodo Technologies quickly adapted to my team, and were (and continue to be) quite helpful. They have a lot of experience in analytics and data engineering, which is handy to keep in mind.

Petco Partnership is Pet Honesty's 1st Leap into Brick-and-Mortar Retail
Press release: Pet Honesty
Pet Honesty, a leading natural, premium pet health supplements brand, recently announced that its fan favorite dog supplements are now available at over 1,500 Petco locations nationwide and at Petco.com through an exclusive national pet retail partnership with Petco Health and Wellness Company. As a special introductory offer, all Pet Honesty dog supplements are 25 percent off at Petco throughout the month of September in-stores only.
"Over the last four years, Pet Honesty has built a loyal and growing online following of health-conscious pet parents who seek products made with natural ingredients," said Richard Greenberg, CEO of Pet Honesty. "We are on a mission to help pet parents elevate their pet's vitality for more joyful moments together and thrilled to advance this cause by providing our most popular pet supplements at trusted Petco stores nationwide."
Pet Honesty continues to expand its availability and leadership in helping pet parents support their four-legged family members' health through pet supplements made with sought-after natural and premium ingredients in a soft chew form and a variety of delicious tastes loved by 98 percent of dogs. Pet Honesty starts with a proactive approach to health with its leading Multivitamin 10-in-1, which is formulated to support adult dogs' overall health everyday through a variety of supplements and vitamins they don't typically get in food alone. Pet Honesty also offers a full range of pet supplements that are formulated to support key functional areas for dogs and cats when more targeted support is needed such as joint health, immune health, digestive health, skin health, calming and more.
The Pet Honesty point-of-purchase display at Petco stores provides pet parents with an educational shopping experience that is comparable to when they seek supplements for their own health. According to the latest Packaged Facts survey data, pet supplement purchasers are more likely to be supplement takers themselves. With 80 percent of Americans now using dietary supplements, Pet Honesty is poised to help more health-conscious pet parents across the country include their pets in a supplement routine that is specially formulated for them.
According to Pet Honesty, the brand is committed to educating pet parents about the functional benefits of its vet-recommended supplements with full transparency on its labels and all consumer touchpoints. The brand's product pledge to pet parents is to provide a taste your pet will love and results you can trust with the most effective natural and other premium ingredients, and no artificial preservatives, colors or flavors and formulated without wheat, soy or corn.
Greenberg was named CEO earlier this year, with founder and former CEO Ben Arneberg continuing to serve as a director on the company's board. A more than 20-year CPG executive, Greenberg most recently served as chief commercial officer of Sovos Brands, which launched its IPO in the fall of 2021. Sovos Brands includes leading brands Rao's Homemade, Noosa Yoghurt, Birch Benders and Michael Angelo's. Prior to Sovos, Greenberg held key leadership positions in the household products sector, initially at the Sun Products Corporation, which was acquired by Henkel Consumer Goods in 2016, where he ultimately served as general manager and chief customer officer.
In addition, Eric Dahmer was named Pet Honesty chief marketing officer in February. Dahmer has more than 20 years of experience in brand building, general management and consulting for iconic brands. He joined Pet Honesty from his previous position as vice president and head of marketing for Nature's Way USA, where he oversaw a portfolio of wellness-focused vitamin and supplement brands. Prior to that, he spent eight years at The Kraft Heinz Company leading brands such as Oscar Mayer Hot Dogs, Ore-Ida Potatoes and Heinz Ketchup. Earlier in his career, he managed marketing for several Johnson & Johnson brands after spending five years as a consultant for Accenture.
In 2021, Pet Honesty added Greg Reinhart, PhD, to its executive team as vice president of research and development. Dr. Reinhart joined PetHonesty from General Mills, where he spent the last five years as senior vice president of research and development for the Blue Buffalo pet food brands. His previous experience spans 17 years at the Iams Company and Procter & Gamble Pet Care, including serving seven years as the vice president of strategic research and communication.


Randwick City, located about six kilometres south-east of the City of Sydney, is the oldest municipality in NSW outside the city centre. Although highly urban itself, to the north and west of the suburb Randwick is adjacent to Green Park and the world famous Centennial Park, and to Randwick Race Course, one of Australia's iconic race tracks. Recently, Randwick Council won the Excellence in Overall Environmental Management award, granted by the United Nations Association of Australia. Randwick City is one of the largest in NSW, covering an area of 36.5 square kilometres, with its Council serving 120,000 residents. Before Council adopted Infocouncil for the management of its agendas and minutes, Randwick used a system written specially for it in Lotus Notes. Infocouncil was licensed in September 2007. The following before-and-after case study summarises information provided by Julie Hartshorn, Senior Administrative Coordinator, in January 2009. All quotations are from Ms Hartshorn.
The system was manual, and did not specifically provide for attachments, which had to be manually inserted at the bottom of reports in either Word or picture format. Many attachments were consigned to 'under separate cover'.
In comparing the two systems 'as a whole', Julie Hartshorn gave the earlier system a rating of 6 out of 10. Infocouncil she rated 9 out of 10.
Randwick Council has found there is no area in which the production and management of business papers has not been significantly improved by the adoption of Infocouncil for these purposes.

Shawn Mendes New Era Is Here: New Songs And Album Details So Far
Shawn Mendes has teased his new music. Picture: Getty
Shawn Mendes is embarking on his new era with a heap of new songs ready to show fans, but when is Shawn's new album coming out?
Shawn Mendes has been working away from the spotlight for the past year since wrapping up his 2019 tour in December, and he's finally dropping a new album and a bunch of new songs.
Shawn Mendes' Epic Rockstar Transformation Through The Years
In October he released 'Wonder' and in November teamed up with Justin Bieber for 'Monster', but there's plenty more where that came from.
From the names of his new songs to when the album is coming out, here are all the details so far on Shawn Mendes' next era...
What is Shawn Mendes' new album called?

— Shawn Mendes (@ShawnMendes) September 30, 2020
Shawn's new album is called 'Wonder', a creation he described is 'a piece of me written down on paper and recorded into songs'.
Confirming its release, Shawn wrote an honest letter to his huge fan base about how it came about and shared a photo of the album cover – a photo of him in a stormy sea beneath pencil scribblings reading 'in wonder'.
When is Shawn Mendes' new album coming out?
Shawn's new album, 'Wonder', will be released on 4 December, just in time for Christmas when the heartthrob's candid and reflective lyrics are needed most.
The first single off the album is the title track 'Wonder', which dropped on 2 October.

Shawn is yet to reveal the full list of songs from his new album, but we expect he'll share more details days away from the album's release date.
The 22-year-old called the album 'a world and journey and a dream', so fans are hoping to see some more emotional songs from the star after the likes of his huge tracks 'Treat You Better' and 'In My Blood' – which he confessed in his Netflix documentary are all about girlfriend Camila Cabello.

Once, in a small village, there lived a wise merchant. He used to sell his goods in the market of a nearby town. He used to carry his goods there on the back of his donkey. The merchant was fond of the donkey and took care of him. But the donkey was lazy and did not want to work at all.
To get to the market from the village, the merchant and the donkey had to wade across a shallow stream. One day, when the merchant had loaded a big sack of salt on the donkey's back to carry it to the market, the donkey thought of a trick. They set off on their journey and soon came to the shallow stream. On reaching the middle of the stream, the donkey bent his knees and lowered his back so that the water level came up to the sack. The salt dissolved in the water and flowed out, making the donkey's load very light. But, because of the donkey's trick, the merchant had to suffer a heavy loss in his business.
reaching the stream, the donkey thought of playing the same trick again. He bent down and water entered the sack. But, as wet cotton is heavier than dry cotton, the donkey's load became a lot heavier than before. He had to carry this heavy load the rest of the way. Thus,Because of the merchant's cleverness, the donkey got the punishment that he deserved.
The next day, the merchant loaded a similar sack on the donkey's back but this time, there was cotton in it instead of salt. On reaching the stream, the donkey thought of playing the same trick again. He bent down and water entered the sack. But, as wet cotton is heavier than dry cotton, the donkey's load became a lot heavier than before. He had to carry this heavy load the rest of the way. Thus,Because of the merchant's cleverness, the donkey got the punishment that he deserved.

Get rid of CHEMICAL formulas to remove underarm hair and try one of these NATURAL ways. All of these ideas are effective and easy to follow!
The armpit care is encouraged for good health and less sweat. There is a need to adopt natural hair removal formulas as you will not experience severe side effects of chemical solutions available in the market.
Make a paste by mixing one tablespoon of sugar with two tablespoon lemon juice. Apply the paste in your underarm heading the direction where the hair grows from. Leave it for a short while and wipe with a cloth. The paste lightens your skin and removes the hair.
Take two cups of sugar, ¼ cup of lemon juice and ¼ cup of water. Mix the ingredients and heat for twenty minutes. Cool, the brown sugaring paste and store in a tight hair container. Take the cold sugaring paste and apply under your cleaned armpit by pressing it on the skin. The application is made in the opposite direction of your hair growth. After that, rinse your underarm with a clean cloth. The armpit hair will remove quickly.
This features a white egg, one teaspoonful of cornflour and a teaspoon of sugar. Quickly apply the paste under your arms and allow it to dry, later, peel off the dried paste. It will come out with the hair. The procedure should be done weekly for excellent results.
Mix turmeric with milk in required measurements to make a thick paste. Apply the paste under your arms. Soak a towel in warm water and use it in cleaning the armpit. You can repeat the procedure for several times. The paste works by loosening hair follicles hence removing the hair.
It works like sugar wax. The ingredients needed are; water, cucumber, gelatin, aloe Vera, green tea bag and lemon juice.Grind the cucumber to prepare the juice. Make the green tea separately and mix the products to make the paste. Wash the armpits and dry them. Later, apply the paste and wait to dry, then remove it off.
The safflower made from Thanaka powder and safflower oil for making the paste. Apply the paste under your arms and have it overnight. In the morning, wash with water, and this could make a permanent way of hair removal.
Did you know that onion can also remove your unwanted hair apart from cooking? Well, get the transparent onion membranes. Crush with the basil leaves to get the paste. Apply the paste on your hair and leave it for some time. Wash it off and repeat the trend for some time.


Is a sustainability initiative best justified by showing the potential benefits to your companies bottom line? At first look, it would appear so. One of the great things about sustainability initiatives is that they often go hand in hand with maximizing efficiency. When your goal is to reduce your carbon footprint, you inevitably find opportunities to reduce the resources required to operate your critical processes and even eliminate ones that aren't so critical. For me, this is the slam dunk argument for going green. Who wouldn't want to be sustainable when you can save money and contribute to saving the planet at the same time? It's an argument that we can all understand and agree on no matter what your priorities are.
Not only are these money saving initiatives great for the bottom line, but more importantly, they have staying power. With the recent economic downturn it was clear that many corporations were downsizing their operations along with many of the green initiatives that didn't have obvious tangible benefits. But when a sustainability initiative helps out your bottom line, its hard to argue that its not part of your core business.
However, two recent news articles make it clear that this isn't always the best way to project success. The first article, from the Hamilton Spectator, outlines how the City of Hamilton, Ontario has taken a hit on the order of $50 million since 2008 due to water conservation efforts that are reducing water-use revenues. The end result being that water and sewer rates may need to increase as much as 6-7 per cent. The second article, in the Toronto based Metro, outlined how Ontario's Fall Economic Update revealed that hydro rates are expected to increase 46 per cent over the next five years as a direct result of the transition to renewable, green power sources. In both these articles the general mood was that these conservation projects were becoming a burden to the system.
How could an effective sustainability strategy suddenly become a failure for actually working? The reason is the general expectation of cost savings ingrained in the sustainability message. On one hand, framing sustainability from the economic and process efficiency angle is a great option since it presents an argument in the familiar language of business and bank accounts. No need to talk about the trees, frogs and saving the planet. A spreadsheet will do just fine.
However, as effective as this is for generating buy-in, it also creates an expectation that sustainability is all about improving profit. It's like donating to charity for the sole purpose of getting the tax credit at the end of the year. You end up missing the point. Even worse, what happens if your money saving initiative ends up costing money instead of saving it? Will people still take heart that you've done your part as a good corporate citizen, or will your green initiatives now be seen as a risky venture?
Although the profit argument is an effective first step, there is a real danger of losing the message of sustainability if it's not framed correctly. When saving money becomes the end goal, we're not tackling the change in culture that needs to happen for an organization to truly become a leader in sustainability. Therein lies the true challenge of being green in the corporate world. Not all of your ideas will resonate with the language of business.
Don't get me wrong; sustainability to help the bottom line is a great place to start, but its good to remember that true green is not only about the money.

hi there, great wordpress blog, and an amazing understand! just one for my bookmarks.
Good food for thought: anyone who has thought through making full supply chain truly green has encountered some of these issues and more; we have much to grapple with to reach a sustainable green solution. And every contribution helps.
I had to bookmark this too. It's important to go beyond the bottom line and realize that change and innovation will deliver its own rewards. often times with financial rewards.

Net Neutrality Now at Risk Of Removal
Hi, Billy Mays here with the brand new deluxe Comcast Internet packet, for only $19.95!
Griffin Sonneman-Creed, Columnist
As December closes in, one final monumental decision has risen out of the ashes of 2017. On Dec. 14, the five members of the United States' FCC (Federal Communications Commision) will be voting on the issue of net neutrality – whether to keep it, or to repeal it once and for all.
Net Neutrality can be summed up with one statement: The internet is free. It allows every person with a device to access any websites, use any service, or read anything they wish, without having to pay money to access them. Across the world, from India to Canada, this has been agreed upon as a basic human right. However, that may be soon to change in the United States.
Net Neutrality is one of the only things keeping Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and other companies from charging extra money for you to access your favorite websites and other media. Services like Netflix, Google, and Youtube will be locked behind paywalls, forcing you to cough up money to use them. In some cases, you may be forced to use other services depending on your ISP. According to CNET, in 2014, Comcast purposefully slowed users' internet speeds while on Netflix to force the service to pay them more.
Therefore, it's no surprise that something as abhorrent as the repeal of the entirety of Net Neutrality is being headed by Comcast itself. And even now, it's using underhanded techniques to convince people it's in the right. According to Ars Technica, a few days after the announcement of the vote, Comcast removed a clause stating that they would protect users from "paid prioritization" – forcing you to pay money for prioritized websites. This vote is going through for more than simple money, though. Many people have been deceived into thinking it's good for the country. Some have even said that it offers a higher level of freedom. To who? The businesses behind the vote.
On Dec. 14, the five primary commissioners of the FCC will be having their historic vote. The committee, led by former Verizon spokesperson Ajit Pai, are currently looking to pass the vote. Commissioners Brendan Carr, Michael O'Rielly, and chairman Ajit Pai have all confirmed in the past that they are voting for the new proposal. Only Jessica Rosenworcel and Mignon Clyburn are standing against it.
In a personal blog post, Clyburn stated her own views on neutrality, stating that it was essential for smaller companies due to a "levelled playing field." This is extremely important. Without Net Neutrality, even more local companies will be run over and smashed by larger corporate monopolies. She then offered a possible solution, by having the public convince Pai to withdraw his proposal prior to the December voting deadline.
So what can you do to stop the vote? There are three things. One, go to www.savetheinternet.com and sign their petition. The website allows you to send a petition protesting the new regulations. Then, call your congressmen to tell them how you feel about this. Let them know that it's wrong. Finally, visit this White House petition calling for the resignation of Ajit Pai. Together, we can stop the vote from going through.

Liverpool are set to go toe-to-toe with Bayern Munich this summer to sign young German forward Timo Werner from RB Leipzig as he looks to leave after three seasons.
The Reds are top of the Premier League table and own the most prolific striker since the start of the 2017/18 season in Mohamed Salah and are still trying to add more goals and pace to their front line.
A week ago, the London Evening Standard reported on what Jurgen Klopp's likely plans for the summer are and with a number of departures being touted, David Lynch claims that the Germain will sign a new no.9 and a new no.10 to further refine his attack.
Timo Werner was mentioned as a possible target and nothing more but ever since there has been an outpouring of German sources – most notably Bild– linking the Reds with a summer move for €65million-rated Timo Werner.
Now, Sport Bild claim that Liverpool will rival Bayern Munich for the 22-year-old's signature at the end of the season.
Borussia Dortmund are also said to hold an interest in Werner but the race to sign the German national team forward will be between Liverpool and Bayern Munich.
Winning the Premier League this season could prove beneficial for Liverpool in the way it has for clubs in the past as it opens the door to signing some of the most exciting talent on the planet and this summer might be one of the best in the club's history.


The remains of late Ambassador Hamzat Ahmadu, a veteran Nigerian envoy who died Sunday, was laid to rest in Gwadabawa LGA of Sokoto state.
The Islamic funeral prayer was led by the Chief Imam of Gwadabawa, Malam Isa Attahiru, and had in attendance sympathisers from within and outside Sokoto.
Among those who graced the prayer were Governor Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, his deputy Ahmed Aliyu, Sultan of Muhammad Sa'ad Abubakar, and the Speaker of the state House of Assembly, Hon Salihu Maidaji.
Others include former Defence Minister Gen Aliyu Gusau, former Chief of Naval Staff, Admiral Jubril Ayinla, Baba Addini of Lagos, Sheikh Abdul Hafeez and former Minister of Finance, Alhaji Abubakar Alhaji.
Speaking with reporters after the prayers, Tambuwal said the people of Sokoto were proud of the deceased's contributions to the development of Nigeria.
"He was active during independence struggle as a backroom staff to our founding fathers, and distinguished himself in the Northern Province civil service and later the Federal civil service.
"His most telling contributions however, were in the foreign service. He lived a fulfilled life, and we pray to Allah to grant him eternal rest," the Governor added.
Late Hamzat Ahmadu was born in 1924. He is survived by two wives and four children.


This year our country decides to pick new leaders who help us, the people, voice our opinions on what we want to fix and what we need to be done. Along with a presidential candidate and a few other politicians, we have to express our concern about something close to home.
The Indian River Lagoon has been going through long term abuse from the input of wastewater, fertilizers, runoff, and many other pollutants. Although the community and others are trying to reverse the damage, there is still a lot more to be done. There's a four-step plan that has been proposed: remove the muck; restrict the flow of septic, fertilizer, storm water and pollutants; restore the mollusks and sea grasses; and lastly, to act fast.
In order to carry out this plan, a ½ Cent Tax is being proposed. Brevard County and economists estimate the plan can be successfully implemented for $302 million over 10 years. They've also estimated that each Brevard County resident will only spend $26 annually if the tax is to be implemented. Although it may seem to be a burden, the Indian River Lagoon is a large investment. The quicker the plan is enacted, the quicker the investment is for the community.
For more information, click here and please help by volunteering, donating, or just by spreading the word.
Vote YES for the Lagoon on November 8th!

Q: Is there a way to simplify a save/update module? I'm coding an application that has several tables and fields that, of course, need to be saved and updated. Each section, say, a page, has its own module that has save/update/remove subs.
This is an example of a save sub inside a save module:
Public Sub saveRecToStaff(FirstName As String, LastName As String, Address As String, Email As String, PhoneNumber As String, Status As String)
Dim rstSave As New ADODB.Recordset
rstSave.ActiveConnection = CurrentProject.Connection
rstSave.CursorType = adOpenDynamic
rstSave.LockType = adLockOptimistic

rstSave.Open "SELECT FirstName, LastName, Address, Email, PhoneNumber, Status FROM Staff"
rstSave.addNew

rstSave.Fields("FirstName").Value = FirstName
rstSave.Fields("LastName").Value = LastName
rstSave.Fields("Address").Value = Address
rstSave.Fields("Email").Value = Email
rstSave.Fields("PhoneNumber").Value = PhoneNumber
rstSave.Fields("Status").Value = Status
rstSave.update

rstSave.Close
Set rstSave = Nothing
End Sub

For a while now, I've been thinking that maybe there could be a way to simplify this procedure. For example, creating a base function that is simply called whenever there is a need to save. I'm very new with VBA coding, however, so I'm not sure how I should go about this.
Any advice would be very much appreciated!
EDIT: What about an update sequence?
Public Sub saveRecToStaff(oldFirstName As String, FirstName As String, oldLastName As String,
LastName As String, oldAddress As String, Address As String, Email As String, PhoneNumber As String,
 Status As String)
Dim rstSave As New ADODB.Recordset
rstSave.ActiveConnection = CurrentProject.Connection
rstSave.CursorType = adOpenDynamic
rstSave.LockType = adLockOptimistic

rstUpdate.Open "SELECT FirstName, LastName, Address, Email, PhoneNumber, Status FROM Staff
 WHERE FirstName='"& oldFirstName & "' AND LastName='" & oldLastName & "' AND Address='" & oldAddress & "'"

If (rstUpdate.EOF = False) Then
rstUpdate.update
rstUpdate.Fields("FirstName").Value = FirstName
rstUpdate.Fields("LastName").Value = LastName
rstUpdate.Fields("Address").Value = Address
rstUpdate.Fields("Email").Value = Email
rstUpdate.Fields("PhoneNumber").Value = PhoneNumber
rstUpdate.Fields("Status").Value = Status
rstUpdate.update
End If

rstSave.Close
Set rstSave = Nothing
End Sub

A: You can easily use shorter/simpler code by switching to DAO. By using With, the recordset doesn't need to be declared and auto-closes:
Public Sub saveRecToStaff(FirstName As String, LastName As String, Address As String, Email As String, PhoneNumber As String, Status As String)
    With CurrentDb.TableDefs!Staff.OpenRecordset
        .AddNew
        .Fields("FirstName").Value = FirstName
        .Fields("LastName").Value = LastName
        .Fields("Address").Value = Address
        .Fields("Email").Value = Email
        .Fields("PhoneNumber").Value = PhoneNumber
        .Fields("Status").Value = Status
        .Update
    End With
End Sub

However, you could use a bound form too, and then you wouldn't need to use any VBA to add new rows. You could only use the built-in form functionality.

Mayabheda, (Sanskrit:मायाभेद:), means the breaching or removal of Avidya ("ignorance"). It means the destruction of the illusion caused by Maya which occurs coinciding with the gain/dawn of Right Knowledge, the knowledge of Brahman. The Rig Veda Sukta R.V.X.177 addressed to Mayabheda in its three Mantras in its own cryptic way serves this purpose. The central theme of this hymn is the discernment of Maya or illusion, the cause of material creation. Mayabheda is also one of the Rigvedic deities.

About Sukta R.V.X.177

The Rig Veda is an ancient anthology of Sanskrit poems mostly in the form of prayers to the Vedic gods. It consists of Ten Books or Mandalas. The Tenth Mandala contains 191 Suktas addressed to Agni, Indra and many other deities. The Purusha sukta (R.V.90), the Hiranyagarbha sukta (R.V.X.121) and the Nasadiya Sukta (R.V.X.129) are a part of this Mandala in which there are many more important hymns.

The Tenth Mandala of the Rig Veda also contains Sukta R.V.X.177 of Rishi Patanga Prajapati which is addressed to the Vedic deity, Mayabheda. It is a very short Sukta consisting of just three mantras. The first mantra is in Jagati chhanda to be sung or recited in Nishad Swara, the second mantra is in Virat-trishtup  chhanda  to be sung in Dhaivata Swara and the third, in Nichrit-trishtup chhanda also to be sung in Dhaivata Swara. The third mantra also appears in the First Mandala in the "Riddle Hymn" as Sukta R.V.I.164.31 in the hymn addressed to the Vishwadevas, in which regard it is said that in this mantra is to be found the culminating point of the whole doctrine of the Transmigration of souls.

Sukta - text

(Translated into English a) by Ralph T. H. Griffith and b) by Laurie L. Patton and c) freely as per Swami Dayananda Saraswati's interpretation.)

पतङ्गम्क्तमसुरस्य मायया हृदा पश्यन्ति मनसा विपश्चितः |
समुद्रे अन्तः कवयो वि चक्षते मरीचीनां पदमिच्छन्ति वेधसः || ||1||

a) The sapient with their spirit and their mind behold the Bird adorned with all an Asura's magic might. Sages observe him in the ocean's inmost depth: the wise disposers seek the station of his rays.
 b) The wise behold with their mind in their heart the Sun, made manifest by the illusion of the Asura. The sages look into the solar orb, the ordainers desire the region of his rays.
c) The one who has entered the Prana, who is the Prana of the Pranas, owing to His grace the wise ones whole-heartedly (devotedly) observe with great interest the constant (observable) activity in the life (empirical existence) of the Jiva (the individual self); but those who are blessed with sharper and deeper insight are able to see stationed within (merged with) the Lord (the supreme Self) all those Jivas that have attained moksha (liberation); therefore, the wise adore the Lord who rests shining ever so brightly.

पतङ्गो वाचं मनसा बिभर्ति तां गन्धर्वोअवदद गर्भे अन्तः |
तां द्योतमानां स्वर्यं मनीषामृतस्य पदे कवयो नि पान्ति || ||2||

a) The flying Bird bears Speech within his spirit: erst the Gandharva in the womb pronounced it. And at the seat of sacrifice the sages cherish their radiant, heavenly-bright invention.
 b) The Sun bears the word in his mind; the Gandharva has spoken it within the wombs; sages cherish it in the place of sacrifice, brilliant, heavenly, ruling the mind.
c) The Jiva sincerely employs its ability to speak ("speech"); the speech which emerges from within in the form of (various/numerous) words is impelled by the Prana residing within the body having been inspired by it; the all-spreading brilliant light-rays and the vibrant air (collectively) together gathering that word-form speech lifts that speech carrying it to all corners of space (for it to be heard).

अपश्यं गोपाम निद्यमानमा च परा च पथिश्चरन्तम |
स्ध्रीचि: स विषूचीर्वसान आ वरीवर्ति भुवनेष्वन्तः || ||3||

a) I saw the Herdsman, him who never resteth, approaching and departing on his pathways. He, clothed in gathered and diffusive splendour, within the worlds continuously travels.
 b) I beheld the protector, never descending, going by his paths to the east and the west; clothing the quarters of the heaven and the intermediate spaces. He constantly revolves in the midst of the worlds.
c) The lord of the senses, the all-knowing one, as the witness, watches the imperishable Jiva who in accordance with its past and present works is repeatedly born in this world and passes through many types of agreeable and disagreeable births.

Import

According to the Asvalayana Srauta Sutra IV.6, Mantra ||2|| of this Rigvedic hymn is the inviting verse of the immolated to Vac (speech), and is used in the pravargya rites along with Mantra ||3||. Mantra ||1|| does refer directly to the Sun. In the Vidhana literature the richness and ambivalence contained within the rite is lost when vide IV.115 it is said that one should constantly mutter that which is destructive of ignorance (ajnanabheda), and which begins with patangam (the mantras of R.V.X.177) which hymn is indeed destructive of illusion (mayabheda) and repels all sorts of illusion; and vide IV.116 it is suggested that one should, by means of this hymn, prevent illusion, be that of Sambara or Indrajala; one should, by means of this, ward off the illusion caused by unseen beings. Here the enemy is one that can create maya, and interfere with the abilities to discern what is true and what is not.

According to Wash Edward Hale the first mantra could refer to the myth of the Svarbhanu hiding the Sun with darkness until it was found by the Atris; if so, this is the only occurrence of asura, in the singular, referring to a mythological evil or demonic being.

StudyDaddy Chemistry
What is the difference between an intrinsic and extrinsic semi conductor material? What is doping?
Intrinsic semiconductors: -
These are pure semi-conducting materials and no impurity atoms are added to it.
For example: The crystals of pure like germanium and silicon are considered as Intrinsic Semiconductor.
Properties: 1. In intrinsic semiconductor, the number of electrons is equal to the number density of holes. i.e., ne=nh. 2. The electrical conductivity is low. 3. The electrical conductivity of intrinsic semiconductors depends on their temperatures.
Extrinsic semiconductors:-
When some impurity is added in the intrinsic semiconductor, extrinsic semiconductors can be produced.
Properties: 1. In extrinsic semiconductor, the number density of electrons is not equal to the number density of holes. i.e., ne is not equal to nh. 2. The electrical conductivity is high. 3. The electrical conductivity depends on the temperature and the amount of impurity added in them.
Doping:-
Doping is the process of adding impurities to intrinsic semiconductors to change their properties. As we know Silicon and Germanium are known as intrinsic semiconductors. Mostly Trivalent and Pentavalent elements are used to dope these elements.
1- When a intrinsic semiconductor is doped with Trivalent impurity it becomes a P-Type semiconductors. The P stands for Positive, which means the semiconductor is rich in holes or Positive charged ions.
2-When we dope intrinsic material with Pentavalent impurities we get N-Type semiconductor, where N stands for Negative. N-type semiconductors have Negative charged ions or in other words have excess electrons.

Q: MVCContrib Portable Area No Intellisense for ViewPage I am trying out portable areas using MVCContrib.
In general these work well and it seems to be a good way to share controllers\views between web projects.
The only problem that I'm having is that Intellisense (specifically, for the HtmlHelper) is not working in the view for strongly typed views i.e. ViewPage.
The intellisense does work however when the view is a plain 'ol System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage
A similar questions has been asked here:
MvcContrib Portable Areas View Intellisense?
But these suggestions don't seem to make any difference.
I am using MVC 2, the portable areas are in their own class library as in the MVCContrib sample code.
I'd also like to add that the MVC sample code gives me the same behaviour, if I change the sample project to make the view page strongly typed then intellisense stops working.
Are other people having the same problem ?
Does anyone know the cause and or solution ?

I've owned a few nice Gretsches including a Setzer SSLVO, a Setzer Hot Rod, and a Gretsch Billy Bo, as well as a couple of Gretsch Electromatics. I've also owned two Guild X170s, a pile of Guild Starfires, both of the III and IV variety, and too many other guitars to count. I have a thing for hollow-body guitars with a Bigsby, or as we in the Guild world call them when they say Guild on them, a Guildsby.
After seeing this video put out by Guild, I decided that I had to have one of these Newark Street X-175B marvels. I finally got my hands on one for a great price and was thrilled when I played it. Let's find out why this guitar excites me.
This guitar, like all the Guild Newark Street models, is finished with polyurethane (poly). It must not be very thick because I had to look it up to see if it might be Nitro. It doesn't feel like its encased in a plastic shell, so I'd say the finish must be thin enough to work well. Kudos to Guild for that. This guitar has actually faded nicely from its original blonde color, which is one of the reasons I wondered if it was nitro.
The neck is perfectly straight, like all Guilds I've owned. The neck shape is very comfortable without being too thick or too thin, leaning on the thinner side when compared to my Starfire III-P90s. The rosewood fretboard seems to be of the normal quality in a quitar of this price range, and the fret markers are nice enough to look good on stage, though up close they show rough edges which is also typical of guitars in this price range.
This is really being nit-picky, though, because I can't feel those edges so it's not something that bothers me at all while I'm playing (I have guitars with terrible inlays that do bug me while playing). Certainly people in the audience will never see that level of detail.
To counter my needless complaint about the inlays, take a look at those fret ends. They're supurb!
The guitar is very well made with no visible flaws or poor craftsmanship. This is not a $5000 custom instrument, and I don't expect it to be, but for the $500 I paid (used), I honestly didn't expect this level of quality. About the only thing that catches my eye on these Newark Street models is the less-than-perfect edges around the inlays which I've already covered.
The guitar weighs a scant 6 lbs 13 oz and feels similar in the hand to other similar guitars I've played. Comparing it to my Westerly X-170T, this guitar is lighter and more lively, likely due to there being a sound post in the X170T while the X-175B has dual braces on the top. Since those braces do not connect to the back of the guitar, the guitar feels more alive.
The pickups are reproductions of the Franz single coil pickups found on the original Guild X-175.
I have no experience with original Franz pickups, but I have plenty of experience with modern P90s, having had a Gibson SG with them, as well as two Guild Starfire IIIs, both of which were made in the Guild Corona factory in 2002. Both of those Starfires are full hollow-bodies, but they're thinner than this deeper-bodied X175B. P90 pickups are also known for their rockin' midrange and their wonderful growl in a distorted tube amp.
This guitar is much brighter than the Starfires, which I attribute to the pickups. In fact, with the tone knobs on 10, and the bridge pickup dimed, the guitar can actually get a bit shrill. I come from the school of "put everything on 10", but on this guitar, dialing back the tone a notch really makes it shine.
My favorite position on a guitar like this is with both pickups engaged (middle switch position), and this guitar is no exception. With both pickups on and the tone dialed back to 8 or 9 on the bridge pickup, this guitar comes into its own. Though I've read concerns that the bridge pickup is not in the right place according to its vintage namesake, thus causing the middle position to be less than ideal, my only observation is that the middle position is a bit harsh which is why I recommend dialing back the tone.
After fiddling with the guitar for some time, I dialed in some different amps on my Axe-FX, and that's when I discovered that this guitar is VERY amp-dependent. What sounds shrill and almost painful on my '63 Bassman patch sounds divine on the "Tiny Tweed" setting. In fact, with the new amp setting I went back to diming all the tone knobs on the guitar, which is how all the sound samples in this article were recorded.
It's difficult to examine the electronics in a hollow-body or semi-hollow guitar since it's all contained within the body and there are usually no access panels to let you in. Luckily Apple has provided a camera on the end of my phone that's long and thin and fits within the F-holes of such a guitar.
Similar to the Guild S-100 I reviewed, I think it's fair to assume that the electronics are made in Korea and as we can see in the pic, a similar wiring technique is used right down to the non-shrunk shrink wrap. I wonder if this is just a means to keep the wires together and not vibrating, though the other wire bundle is held together with a wire-tie, so who know what they were thinking?
The addition of quick-release connectors is nice on a guitar like this since it's so difficult to swap pickups without an access panel, but looking at the electronics, it strikes me that I wouldn't be able to get my arm in there so I'd have to pull the pots to access the quick-release connectors anyway. At least there wouldn't be any soldering required.
As I wrote in my review of the Newark Street S-100, I don't like the tuners on these guitars. They work OK, but they're not as tight or as smooth as the nicer tuners that Guild used to use on its American-made models. Also the tuning pegs themselves are a bit small for my hands, though that's not really a big deal. Again, though, for the money I spent on this guitar it's not fair to complain since they function and look fine.
This guitar has the same ugly yellow switch tip as the other Newark Street guitars, though I imagine putting a metal switch tip on at the factory would raise the price. You know, about a dollar.
The frets are perfect with no rough spots, and no flaws that I could find. The ends were all very nicely rounded and the guitar plays like a dream.
The Guildsby operates as it should, and feels just like the ones I have on my Starfire IIIs. The nut is bone and seems to tolerate the Guildsby without concern.
The bridge is an infernal tune-o-matic type, and I will likely replace it with something from Compton, which I've done on almost every similar guitar I've owned, though to be fair it seems to perform fine as-is.
As I wrote in the pickups section, this is a much brighter guitar than one equipped with P90s. For the type of music I'd play with this guitar, the tone I'd chase is what I'd describe as chimey. Gretsch TV Jones Filtertrons get that sound. P90s can get that sound, but they're also fatter-sounding, with more midrange.
Tone is affected a great deal by the amp and speaker being used, and if I still had it, I'd be blasting this thing through my old '63 Bassman. I no longer have it, though, so I had to use my Axe-FX Ultra with a pretty good simulation. By the way, the Bassman is shown with my 1994 Starfire IV which I also no longer have. Because I'm an idiot.
My Bassman patch was made in order to make my Gretsch SSLVO sound right with it, which it did. The problem is that the patch sounded truly awful with the Guild X-175B! The best way to describe the sound is shrill. It was seriously not good. It was so bad that I didn't even record it because the patch is custom and thus it would be unfair to judge the guitar on a patch no one else would be using.
As soon as I changed to a "Tiny Tweed" setting, though, the guitar really opened up. With the bridge pickup on, digging into the strings gives a satisfying bit of growl in all the right places. Attempting to play Brian Setzer's '49 Mercury Blues rewarded me with a nice rockin' sound with just the twang I was looking for.
On the neck pickup, I got some nice jazzy tones where I could do my best with Setzer's version of Sleepwalk, which is one of my favorite songs. I can even almost play it!
With both pickups on I went for the intro to Stray Cat Strut, further proving that I need more time on the frets before I hit any stages.
Fooling around some more with the neck pickup, I liked the tone, but the bass side of things got a little "woofy" from time to time leading to the conclusion that the guitar does pretty well, but it seems to struggle at the extremes. With the bridge pickup volume and tone on 10, the guitar can sound shrill with a brittle ear-piercing tone. Dial the tone back even to nine and it cleans up nicely. This is evident with both pickups on as well, but again, this can be very amp dependent.
On the bass side of things, playing on the first few frets of the low E string, the guitar seemed to lose a bit of clarity. Dialing down the tone doesn't help here because all that does is roll off more highs.
Still, my complaints are not deal-breakers. Remember, this is potentially a $500 guitar on the used market, and for that price, my concerns are almost nit-picky to the extreme. If I had a guitar like this when I was 15, I would have been in tone heaven. We just didn't have quality low-priced guitars like this back in the '70s.
Guild calls the neck shape on this guitar a "soft U", and that seems pretty accurate. It's not too thick, and not too thin. As much as I loved my Gretsch SSLVO, the V-neck bugged me. I like the neck on the X-175B much better, but I don't like it as much as, say, my 2002 Corona Guild Starfire III-P90.
With its smooth frets I never once felt a snag. The fretboard feels great, the Guildsby is smooth and works properly, and it stays in tune as well as any vibrato tailpiece-equipped guitar can without locking tuners.
While it doesn't have the attention to detail in places like the fretboard inlays, and it can be a bit shrill with the wrong amp, when it comes to playability, and most importantly feel, this guitar blows away any similarly priced guitar that I've ever played. I like the tone, too, but you may need to tweak it a bit to take depending on your amp.
To me, the X-175B makes a Gretsch Electromatic feel like a lifeless block of wood. If I had to compare it to any of the guitars I've owned, I'd have to say it most closely feels like my Gretsch SSLVO, mostly because of how lively it feels. I payed $2000 for that guitar used, while this X175B cost me a FOURTH that much. It doesn't have the same attention to detail, doesn't have the same sound, and is clearly not meant to be a competitor for such a guitar in any way, but you know what? If I was forced into this being my only guitar, I would not be troubled at all.
Hi, great review. So this Guild is better quality than a g5420t? I wanna buy one of these guitars, don't know which one should I get, my head is gonna explode lol.
The bridge is pinned on this x-175b?
