SeeU (시유) is a Korean VOCALOID developed and distributed by SBS A&T (formerly SBS Artech), and was released in October 2011 for South Korea and later in December for Japan. Her voice is provided by Korean female singer, Dahee Kim, a member of the K-Pop idol group, 'GLAM'. Dahee recorded in Korean and Japanese for the two voicebanks.
Her name in Korean is rendered as "시유" (Siyu) and in Japanese it is "シユ" (Shiyu). During an interview with SBS A&T manager, Hyo Eun Kim, it was said that SeeU's name came to mind after thinking of a line from the 2009 film, Avatar. The line "I See You" popped into her mind and became the inspiration for 'SeeU'. According to SBS, this is only one of several meanings of her name.[1][2]
SeeU was given a moe-esque design and is aimed more specifically to the general and VOCALOID Otaku fandom. SBS stated that SeeU was created to be a "cute and lively yet mysterious looking 17 year old girl." Her outfit was designed with a school uniform in mind. Her official illustrations and design was created by KKUEM.
Her cat ears/nekomimi are speakers. According to her illustrator, they are actually detachable[3] Her neckband is a CD player. Soundwaves light up on the rectangle of her flat-shoes and on the upper part of her top (chest). There's a pause button at the back of her clothes, a power button on the ribbon of her neckband and an "on" button on one of the buttons at the front of her top. During a virtual interview starring SeeU conducted by SBS, SeeU revealed her clothing size to be XXS.[4]

VOCALOID3 Library SV01 SeeU Limited Edition was produced for her launch in 2011, which included a SeeU Demo song CD, photo frame, stickers, badges, phone strap, manual booklet and an illustration book called "SEEU COME INTO THE WORLD".[5] SBS also promoted SeeU to the public by printing her illustration on face packs and on the side of taxi cars.
During Nico Nico Chokaigi 2012's "VOCALOID NEWS", SBS stepped forward and claimed to be producing an album for SeeU. On October 19, 2012, SBS Artech teamed up with Big Hit Entertainment and released an album called SV01 SeeU's Compilation Album, featuring seven notable songs from the UGC contest. The album was released in Japan and translated into Japanese lyrics on October 29, 2012.

- CreCrew
The website CreCrew (A combination of the words "create" and "crew") was opened for Vocaloid artists and fans alike by SBS Artech. It provides a hub for users to collaborate, however the conditions are different for the artwork and videos uploaded onto the website: third-party content is allowed to a greater degree.
SBS announced a surprise party for SeeU on CreCrew for her first birthday. Producers and artists will have a chance to earn goodies made by the SBS team by drawing a picture or creating a short 30 second birthday song for SeeU. The translated version of the event can be found here.
CreCrew held a photograph contest in which the winners received either a SeeU vocaloid library, a limited edition SeeU's 1st birthday library, a product package or a "SeeU Tumbler". The contest was sponsored by inTVitem, an online store.
CreCrew created a board notice stating that the website will be shut down on the 30th of September at midnight. The notice explains that the reason is due to the fact that the site costs around 10 million won (about $9,450) to run. CreCrew disabled uploading new contents on August 31 and remained open throughout the month of September for users to download remaining content before its closure.
As of September, 2013, CreCrew has officially been shut down. All that remains of the website is a single page with a picture of SeeU's official art that thanks the fans for supporting her and SBS. It also directed the viewer to the site of the new fandom's official site, known as Vocaloid Empire.Some time during 2014, anyone who typed in CreCrew's address redirected to the new Korean online community, Ate Li (아트리). The site serves as a new website for Korean creators and SeeU fans, where SeeU originals, and fanart, are uploaded for viewing. It also has a large number of fan covers of VOCALOID songs, many of them being in Korean. Ate Li was founded by a Korean developer.
- Vocaloid Empire
After the shut down of CreCrew, Dr. Yun headed the new Korean Vocaloid's fandom by creating, Vocaloid Empire, located on a very popular Korean blog site known as Naver. Vocaloid Empire has all the features of CreCrew and more, including the ability to upload original music, covers, fanart, 3D/MMD and more SeeU/Vocaloid related content. It also includes a weekly ranking held and updated every Sunday.
The site currently has over 13,000 Naver users following and uploading content. However, the site is almost completely in Korean, making it difficult for those outside of the Korean fandom to enjoy it fully.
The second UGC contest has ended for original songs, and the top four winners have been chosen. Their songs will be featured in the upcoming SeeU concert in March of 2014. The winnings songs were written by TEAM FOIS, Sangnoksu, Gota and DZ:ST∧N in that order. Costumes used or drawn in the songs will be used in the concert for the performances.
Throughout the month of March, a "banner contest" was held by Dr. Yun that allowed Korean fans to design and upload a page banner to be displayed at the top of Vocaloid Empire's front page. Each "season" will feature a new banner from the top five winners of the contest. The winners have since been chosen, with first place won by Hanarin, followed by Ssukkuk, Tturu, Eilrin and Moonlight, in that order, as seen here.
- Competition
An art competition was held related to her. According to SBS Artech, the winner receives a limited version of her software and an Intuos tablet, second place will win the normal software package and the VOCALOID3 editor, and third place will just receive the limited edition voicebank. The winners of the competition were revealed on September 17, 2011. All winning and notable entries appeared in SeeU's newest demo PV. On the 23rd, her official first demo song was uploaded, featuring all the winners and honorably mentioned artwork.
On November 17, 2011, SBS Artech announced 1st UGC competition for SeeU. The winners of the competition were finally announced on Febuary 3rd, 2012. SBS Artech held an award ceremony for the winners and had famous Korean producer Shi Hyuk Bang attend the ceremony, as well as SBS news announcer Min Ji Kim.
A second competition, a SeeU Product Design Contest, was held from April 23 to June 1 by SBS Artech. Anything over 3rd place was promised to be made and the 1st place winner is given the opportunity to work as SBS Artech/11th street's character goods designer.
The 2nd UCG competition was announced on 9 September 2013. The winners will be announced on November 22 have their songs appear in a hologram concert on March 2014.[6]
According to Vocaloid Empire, the UGC contest has ended and the top six winners have been chosen. The grand prize was awarded to an artist under the name of Aiso in the original song category. More information is found here.
The third UGC contest has been announced for December, lead by Dr. Yun and ST Media. The contest will feature multiple sections, including original songs (Vocalina and UTAU are permitted), cover songs (one for people and one for VOCALOIDs), illustrations, literature (poetry, lyrics), translations (tba), costumes/cosplay and other media content (dance videos, 3D models, etc.). The deadline has yet to be announced.
- Interview
During a recent interview with Prica by the SBS Artech team, SBS has announced some plans they will be doing. SBS claimed they have started a company called VMP Korea (Vocaloid Music Publishing Korea) to publish CDs out of songs uploaded to Crecrew. SeeU and GLAM will be appearing in an international 3D contest. They are planning an event with Dongne Festa (a Doujin event) towards the end of the year. Winners from SeeU's Birthday competition will receive the limited edition of SeeU's Birthday products. The UGC contest winner will receive a CD.
- Game
SeeU songs were added to the iOS app game "Krazy Rain 2 Battle" (크레이지레인2 배틀), a rhythym game. The app is free but the songs must be purchased seperately. Since the app is set up as a arcade style, it costs 25 or 30 points (you get 2000 points for $2) per play, although some songs are free. Songs included are a selection of popular songs from CreCrew, as well as a couple of her demo songs. More songs may be added later.[7]
SBS Artech collaborated with Dragon Guide to create SeeU posters for a Korean online card game.
- Mobile Apps
An app for SeeU on iOS was created entitled, "호랭 시유" ("Horaeng SeeU"). The app is a manga in a 4-panel format, and has little to no text. There are about 44-45 pages total, and around 20 pages of bonus material. The story itself is about SeeU and her pet tiger and their daily lives. Hatsune Miku, Megurine Luka, Aoki Lapis, Camui Gackpo and Akikoroid-chan all make appearances in the novel.[8]
- me2day
SeeU has a me2day account. As of June 2014 SeeU's me2day account has been shut down.
SeeU has a twitter account.
- Music Push
SeeU has an artist page on the UK website Music Push, which has her demonstration song "RUN" published on it.
- Hyundai Brilliant Song Campaign
Hyundai has released a campaign entitled Brilliant Song, a competition where people create lyrics for premade music selections based on a certain mood. VOCALOID programs are used to sing the lyrics. SeeU sings for Korean competitors, but Brilliant Song is being used worldwide and other VOCALOIDs are being used for the different languages (Oliver and Sweet Ann for English, Bruno and Clara for Spanish, etc.). The winners of the Brilliant Song competitions will win various prizes.
First place was won by Wongi Ryu, using SeeU's Korean voicebank. According to Hyundai, Wongi Ryu won overall and had the top lyrics globally.
- SK Tellink
- Ansan Hanggongjeon Airshow
SBS Artech took part in the 2013 Ansan Hanggongjeon Airshow and had a small display area set up just for SeeU during the show. The airshow is a special military event that takes place from June 1-5 every year. The SeeU booth was set up to promote SeeU, VOCALOID3 and the website CreCrew while it was still up. There were free giveaways and small trinkets being sold at the display, and was open for the public to come and visit and have a good time. The SeeU corner was set up from the 3rd day to the last of the airshow, and featured many interesting things about SeeU, as well as a life-size SeeU cardboard character and the Chou Cream on top of the banner at the front of the set up.
- Performance
On July 18, 2012, an administer from SBS Artech posted a poster to introduce SeeU's first "live" performance on a Korean music show called 인기가요 (Inkigayo), broadcasted by SBS. SeeU performed with her voice provider, Dahee, as well as the other members of Dahee's group, GLAM. SeeU appeared as a hologram designed by a 3D designer named Chuh Ri. The show was aired to the public on July 22, 2012.
About a month later on August 31, SeeU performed alongside GLAM yet again at the KSF2012 singing and dancing to I=Fantasy. Other songs included Party (XXO) and Glamorous.
Even before that performance GLAM did a pre-debut version of I=Fantasy by themselves, with a screen showing a practice run of the dance before it was aired.
December 29, SeeU performed with GLAM on stage at the SBS Gayo Daejun (a major annual end-of-the-year music program broadcasted by SBS) for GLAM's comeback. GLAM was the first rookie K-Pop group to perform their comeback song "I Like That" on the show. The show was part of the SBS charity project 'The Color of K-pop'. After the performance, SBS released SeeU's music video that was used on the stage.
On January 19, SeeU appeared in her own solo concert, titled "Crazy Otaku's Unofficial B-rated Don't Ask SeeU Concert", and the video footage of the concert became available at Crecrew few days later. During the concert, SeeWoo (gender bender of SeeU) made an appearance along with Luo Tianyi and Vocalina Vora. Also on the 19th of January, SeeU made an appearance and sang I=Fantasy at the SwampCon 2013 Hatsune Miku Hologram Concert.
On March 23, SeeU appeared in a concert at the Tora Con AniMiku concert, singing Star and Paparoach by Dr. Yun, as well as Leaving Donna by Empath-P. The entire concert can be seen here.
On May 24th, a SeeU concert was held at the AX Concert Hall in Seoul, directed and created by ST Media (a music company founded by Dr. Yun) and Dr. Yun himself.
The songs were almost all completely by ST Media and/or Dr. Yun, as well as two songs YANHE sung as a special feature and the three songs from the SeeU 2nd UGC competition. The concert was called "The First or the Last", and had over 1,800 fans attend.
The concert was reported a large success by Dr. Yun, who released a big "thank you" message on Vocaloid Empire the day after the concert. A special, high-polymer model was used for the concert, however there are no official photos or clear pictures of the new model of SeeU.
- Christmas Sales
Starting December 17, 2013, SeeU's voicebank has gone on sale until the 31st of December. Her voicebank's price has been cut from 143,000 won to only 69,900 won, which is about an 80,000 won drop from before. She's available for purchase exclusively in Korea via CreCrew Store as a Christmas special and a promotion to encourage more fans to buy the program.

The package is being resold for a limited time, same as in Korea, but is now available worldwide. CreCrew Store required a Korean address in order to purchase the product. eBay will allow anyone globally to purchase her program.

SBS Artech resold SeeU on eBay for a fairly reduced price. SeeU's full box with all the extra merchandise (including the phone key chain, stickers, manuals and buttons) came with the package, and was being sold for only $117.00 USD with free shipping included. As of July 16, 2014, SeeU's program completely sold out of stock from SBS. The library is officially no longer in stock on eBay, and is not available from SBS on any other sales site on the Internet.

Additional informationEdit
|SeeU Popularity
|To our readers and editors: For section notes, please read Wiki notes:Popularity sections.
The SBS A&T team admitted SeeU sold less than expected within South Korea and Japan. Specific number of sales have not been revealed.
Because of some issues between Japan and South Korea involving fans basing opinions on political and racial issues, this gave SeeU a rough start in both countries. The issues with Japanese fans in regard to SeeU has also left SeeU's Nicopedia page subject to issues reflecting this.
Therefore, her overall popularity ranges per website from amongst the "least popular" to "most popular" of the VOCALOID3 releases. It is affected by the opinions and politics of fans within that particular circle of the fandom.
Her overall popularity according to Google trends, spiked in September 2011 a month before her release, but she has since lost most of her popularity.
Amongst the other issues related to SeeU and her popularity, her English vocal was put on hiatus around Feb 2013. The hiatus was to raise SeeU's profile and make her more popular as SBS A&T were unsure how fans would react. Further developments to SeeU's vocal, remains unknown.
In 2015 a survey was made based on the popularity of Vocaloids on website Nico Video. For the year 2014, SeeU was the 38th most popular Vocaloid and the second least popular Japanese capable vocaloid.[9]
Notable for...Edit
- First Korean capable VOCALOID
- First female Korean VOCALOID
- First bilingual VOCALOID3
- First VOCALOID by SBS A&T
- First female VOCALOID by SBS A&T

- First Japanese voicebank produced by a non-Japanese company

Form, meet function. These belted cargo shorts are the perfect solve for keeping all your stuff stashed and your style intact. Throw them on with a lightweight sweater for the ultimate spring casual look.
- Belt included
- Button closure with zip fly, brushed metal buttons
- Slant hand pockets, button flap back pockets
- 10 1/4" inseam
- Cotton
- Machine wash
- Imported
Good shorts but ones from last year are longer I bought a pair of these in white last year, and I love them, so I bought them in oyster this year. I don't know if they were 11" last year, and now only 10" long, but they seem a bit shorter. A minor inconvienence, although I hope they return to 11" next year! They are light, and breathable, and they aren't bulky like most cargo shorts, so they don't make you look like 5lbs heavier. August 10, 2013
Stylish and Good Fitting Shorts These shorts are not too long and come in a variety of colors. They are a bit big on the waist but still a great look. July 12, 2013
Different than last year's I bought 2 pairs of these shorts because I had 2 from last year, but they had worn a hole in the butt. I got the new pairs because they are very comfortable shorts, well fitting and a breathable material. However... 2013's shorts are a full inch shorter than 2012's. I'm not sure why this is. As a result, they aren't as long as I'd like. They are still very comfortable, but the leg ends at the top of my knee; last year's shorts stopped at the bottom of my knee. Minor, but notable. I think the cut is slimmer too, but that's OK because I'm thin and cargo shorts normally make you look huge; these don't. June 25, 2013
Best Cargo Shorts! So usually cargo shorts tend to make you look a little bigger but these cargo shorts actually help keep a slim look! The pockets don't bulge out like other cargo shorts from other brands do. Definitely worth getting! June 6, 2013
Very comfortable I bought them to use while I was on vacation and I loved them. Very comfortable and look great. The fit was great also. The shorts were not too long and not too short. May 20, 2013

Importing Credible Monetary Policy: A Way for Transition Economies to Fight Inflation?
2006, Economics Letters
Steven F. Kreft, Elham Mafi-Kreft
In the 1990s, transition economies were rearranging their monetary regimes. This paper compares the chosen regimes based on the level of discretionary power and the ability to control inflation. Results show that non-discretionary regimes produce lower and more stable inflation.

In the spirit of Earth Week April 21-25, Grand Prairie is conducting a citywide cleanup of illegally dumped tires, which will be recycled thanks to a grant from the nonprofit organization Bluebonnet Resource Conservation and Development (RC&D). In addition, the city offers residents the chance to turn in their own tires – free of charge – during "Tire Amnesty Day" on Friday, April 25, 2014, at the Grand Prairie Landfill. The Landfill, 1102 MacArthur Blvd., will waive the usual recycling fee for up to 10 tires per resident 7:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. on April 25. Recycling is the only environmentally responsible way to dispose of tires.
"Piles of tires can be a public health threat as a breeding ground for mosquitoes, as well as dangerous to the environment if piles of tires catch on fire," said Patricia Redfearn, City of Grand Prairie Solid Waste Manager.
Bluebonnet RC&D, a non-profit organization, performs Supplemental Environmental Projects (SEP) within a 10 county area in Texas with funds from entities that received fines to resolve a legal enforcement action undertaken by the Texas Commission for Environmental Quality (TCEQ).

Chandler was born in New Orleans and grew up in the Southeast. He attended Brevard College in the mountains of North Carolina and later finished his studies at UNC- Charlotte where he majored in Land Use Planning. The Land Use Planning career would have to be put on hold while he and his wife opened a restaurant in Downtown Charlotte. During the few breaks he got from the restaurant business, he would always spend time at the Outer Banks, fishing and relaxing. After 15 years, they sold the restaurant and decided to call the Outer Banks home. For the past 10 years Chandler has been a top producer helping clients with their investment decisions. When he is not having fun with clients you can usually find him boating, fishing, gardening or just spending time with his wife and 2 daughters in Southern Shores.
Chandler values his client relationships and hopes to create one with you!

David & Sally Kole
My wife Sally and I decided several years ago that we would eventually live in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Approximately four weeks ago with the help of Re/Max real estate broker Chandler Spawr our dream came true. While Sally and I had decided to start a new chapter in our lives here in the Outer Banks, without the assistance of Chandler this would not have been possible. I have been a police officer for over twenty years in New York. I have become a pretty good judge of character and I can say without hesitation that Chandler Spawr is an honest, reliable and sincere individual that will go the extra mile no matter what. He showed us what a true professional real estate broker should be. After we settled into our new home in Southern Shores, Chandler called us on occasion to make sure we were all set and offered his assistance if we needed it. That shows you the type of individual Chandler Spawr is. I highly recommend that you contact Chandler for your next real estate purchase.
Joan Houshower
I listed our home on the Outer Banks at the end of April due to divorce. After consulting with three other companies, it was Chandler I chose, not solely for pricing, but rather his friendly and professional manner, insight to the sales market and how to best sell my home in a timely manner.
His approach to marketing was extremely efficient. From using the website to "Showcase" my home, preparing brochures and contacting other agents, Chandler was always ahead of the rest. I knew I could rely on his expertise and professional judgments.
In the month that followed, we had many contacts via telephone, emails and faxes. These occurred almost on a daily basis. He would keep me up to date on how many showings the house had and comments from prospective buyers and agents. He even had the amount of times my home was visited on the website! That type of information and communication is nothing less than awesome!
If I had a question or something to inform Chandler about and he was busy at the time, he would return my call the same day. It didn't matter if it was a weekday, weekend, day or evening, he was there to help.
Selling a home long distance added tension to an already stressful situation for me. By using Chandler as my agent, much of that burden was lifted. I felt extremely confident that things were in good hands while I was living in Pennsylvania. My home sold in a MONTH! If I am ever lucky enough to someday have another property on the Outer Banks, you can be assured I will come back to Chandler. Until then, I will recommend his services highly to my friends that own Outer Banks property.
Ted and Gwen Harrison
Chandler, It has been a while but I just wanted to extend our appreciation for the great job you did selling our lot in Southern Shores. I truly believe that without someone like yourself with the connections and respect you have been able to compile over the years, we would still have the lot up for sell. In addition, it was great how you didn't neglect us during the "on the market" phase. It was painful to let the property go and you understood this and took care in dealing with it and us. I know if we sell our other property in Whalehead in the future, you are the only broker we would ever consider. This is high praise but well deserved.
Rick and Lisa Watkins
Chandler Spawr represented us in the sale of our semi-oceanfront home. Chandler's marketing strategies for getting our home out in the mass market were spectacular (especially given the real market we are now experiencing). The customer service we received was impeccable and flawless. He was almost always available when we needed to reach him either by cell or in the office. Chandler's attention to detail was very impressive, and we always felt that our best interests were of utmost importance to him. We realized he had many other clients that were also very anxious about selling their properties as well, but, we never felt at any time that we were "back-burnered"....he made us feel we were his only client!! We would, without a doubt, recommend Chandler Spawr to anyone that is either buying or selling real estate on the Outer Banks!!
Richard Flanagan

To Whom It May Concern:
It is truly a pleasure for me to recommend Chandler Spawr of Twiddy and Company. Chandler represented me during the recent sale of my rental cottage in the Saltaire community of Duck, N.C. As such, I could not have asked for a better real estate agent.
Chandler is a tireless professional. His thoughtful approach to marketing my cottage was outstanding in every respect. Particularly impressive were the efforts he put forth at a time when economic conditions were less than optimal. Throughout the entire process—from the property's listing to its closing—Chandler's communication, insightful advice and personal assistance proved to be invaluable.
Chandler Spawr is certainly someone who can be counted on do the job, whether you are a seller or a prospective buyer. He is an exceptional person—not only to work with as a broker but also to know as a friend!

The relationship between Abbey Road Studios and Bowers & Wilkins started in 1988, when the studios adopted the Matrix 801 as its reference monitor. And it continues to this day, with the 800Ds currently in residence. But the Abbey Road studios story goes a lot further back…
Built as a Georgian townhouse in 1831, the premises were acquired by The Gramophone Company in 1931 and converted into studios. The neighbouring house is also owned by the studio and used to house musicians. During the mid-1900s the studio was extensively used by leading British conductor Sir Malcolm Sargent, whose house was just around the corner from the studio.
The Gramophone Company later amalgamated with Columbia Graphophone Company to form EMI, which took over the studios. The studios were then known as EMI Studios until they changed their name to Abbey Road Studios formally in 1970. Studio Two at Abbey Road became a centre of rock music in 1958 when Cliff Richard and the Drifters (later Cliff Richard and The Shadows), recorded "Move It", arguably the first European rock and roll single. Later, it also witnessed the beginnings of a change from "rock 'n' roll" to "rock".
The Beatles also found great success in Studio Two, and during the early-to-mid-'60s, The Beatles and Cliff and The Shadows became almost like joint owners of the studio, with friendly battles for recording time. It was The Beatles who broke with tradition, changing recording techniques, and forever changing the boundaries of what was considered popular music. Innovating with flanging, backwards recording, automatic double tracking, and controlled feedback, The Beatles utilised Abbey Road studios to full effect.
In fact, Abbey Road Studios is most closely associated with The Beatles, who recorded almost all of their albums and singles there between 1962 and 1970. The Beatles named their final 1969 album, Abbey Road, after the street where the studio is located (the recording studio would only be named Abbey Road after The Beatles record in 1970). The cover photo for that album was taken by Iain MacMillan outside Abbey Road Studios, with the result that the pedestrian zebra crossing outside the studio, where the Fab Four were photographed, soon became a place of pilgrimage for Beatles fans from all over the world. Among the less desirable effects of this notoriety has been the unsightly graffiti written on the studio fence by visitors and the regular theft of road signs.
But there is more to Abbey Road than just the Beatles. Pink Floyd recorded most of their late '60s to mid-1970s albums (such as The Piper at the Gates of Dawn (1967), A Saucerful of Secrets (1968), Music from the Film More (1969), Ummagumma (1969), Atom Heart Mother (1970), Meddle (1971),The Dark Side of the Moon (1972 - 1973) and Wish You Were Here (1975), at the studio as well.
The band would not use Abbey Road again until the mixing sessions of the double live album Delicate Sound of Thunder (1988) and some overdubs for The Division Bell (1994). Recently, Floyd guitarist David Gilmour recorded some of the tracks for his recent solo album On an Island there. Syd Barrett also recorded The Madcap Laughs and Barrett (1970) there.
Notable producers and sound engineers who have worked at Abbey Road include Sir George Martin, Geoff Emerick, Norman "Hurricane" Smith, Ken Scott, Mike Stone, Alan Parsons, Phil McDonald, Richard Lush and Ken Townshend, who invented the groundbreaking studio effect automatic double tracking (ADT).
As well as being the birthplace of countless classic pop and pop recordings, Abbey Road Studios also saw the creation of many of the most famous movie scores. Raiders of the Lost Ark, Return of the Jedi, The Last Emperor, Batman, Memphis Belle, Shining Through, City Of Joy, The Fisher King, Immortal Beloved, Interview With A Vampire, Little Women, The Madness Of King George, Apollo 13, Lord Of The Rings: Fellowship Of The Ring, Lord Of The Rings: Two Towers and Lord Of The Rings: Return Of The King. Harry Potter & The Chamber Of Secrets, Harry Potter & The Philosopher's Stone. The list is pretty much endless, and will continue to grow.
However, while it's easy to get lost in the numbers of titles, Abbey Road Studios is about more than quantity; look closer at the albums and scores recorded here and it very quickly becomes clear that it's also about quality. Quality of artists, and quality of sound.

And "lethal social justice" isn't the same as "social justice".
C) If my combat efforts would likely succeed and wouldn't create the expected backlash in response thereby doing more harm than good, absolutely. I'd have no problem with that at all, personally (that's part of why I signed up with the Army way back when). I wouldn't particularly enjoy it, but I'd have no problem with it either. The problem is that you seem to be ignoring the nature of religious fanatics in your zeal to fix 'em good. That's just being complicit in the root problem with those people. Such situations aren't isolated to the event itself, there's a lot more to consider (which is why when I re-upped with the Guard ten years later I was only okay with being a medic).
The above quotations are not quite consistent:
In the latter, you DO recognize the right to implement, at times, "lethal justice", in the first, you muddle-headedly deny the existence of such.
As for this fear of yours concerning the "backlash effect", I assume you think it was wrong of the Allied Powers to declare war upon Germany in 1940, since that had the backlash of the counter-declaration from Germany, resulting in the deaths of thousands of Brits and others whose lives would otherwise have been spared?
Nor were the chances particularly good then, for the future defeat of Germany..
You're presuming success, which is precisely the crux of the issue I'm pointing out that you need to consider rather than presume. Reality is a lot more messy than fundamentalist ideology (which has a lot to do with why those so inclined invest so deeply in black and white ideology).
Not quite.
I just happen to have a different criterion for success than you do:
To implement the execution of an individual who decides to stone to death a raped 13-year old (or join the stoners' cheer gang) IS a resounding success.
If that success rouses the ire of more Islamic bullies, then it is their turn next.

Unyielding GOP politicians doing what voters ask
Friday - 2/15/2013, 5:22pm EST
Associated Press
HEBER CITY, Utah (AP) -- U.S. Rep. Jason Chaffetz flew home from Washington last week, leaving behind a capital baffled by Republicans like him in Congress: those who stubbornly refuse to compromise with President Barack Obama, a tactic that some see as damaging the GOP brand and pushing the nation repeatedly to the brink of fiscal chaos.
Back in his Utah district, Chaffetz drove to the Dairy Keen and barely had bitten into a bacon cheeseburger before a diner begged him to stop Obama's health care overhaul.
"It's the stupidest plan in the world," said Phoebe Eason, 69, leaning over her booth to complain about a clause that forces her husband, a podiatrist, to pay more for medical devices.
"I'm doing everything I can to repeal it or take out these sections," Chaffetz reassured her. Minutes later, he headed to a town hall where some constituents asked why the president hadn't yet been impeached.
To understand why the nation may remain politically gridlocked for the next two years, talk to people in a place like Heber City, a conservative farming and ranching hub nestled beneath the imposing peaks of the Wasatch mountains. Many voters here, and in conservative communities across the country, still want to do whatever it takes to stop Obama, despite his solid re-election in November, and the politicians they elect are listening.
In his State of the Union address this week, Obama laid out an ambitious agenda that includes gun control, raising the minimum wage, allowing most of the 11 million illegal immigrants in the country to become citizens and raising tax revenue to help cut the deficit.
But the president has acknowledged it will be difficult to get those proposals through a Republican-controlled House of Representatives.
"The House Republican majority is made up mostly of members who are in sharply gerrymandered districts that are very safely Republican and may not feel compelled to pay attention to broad-based public opinion, because what they're really concerned about is the opinions of their specific Republican constituencies," Obama said in an interview with The New Republic magazine last month.
Analysts differ on whether gerrymandering -- the practice of drawing district lines so your party can pick up more seats -- fully explains why Obama handily won re-election in November, even as Republicans lost only a handful of seats in the House. One thing is clear: Compromise is a dirty word for many of the Republicans remaining in the House.
A Pew poll last month found that 36 percent of GOP voters would look favorably on a politician who compromises, compared with 59 percent of Democrats and 53 percent of independent voters.
Virtually all House Republicans come from districts that voted against Obama in November. And in many states, primary voters have punished Republicans they see as too eager to cut deals with Democrats.
That's how Chaffetz, 45, won his seat in 2008. He challenged a 12-term Republican congressman who angered the party's base by backing an immigration overhaul that included granting citizenship to many illegal immigrants. Two years later, Utah Republican primary voters also pushed out Sen. Robert Bennett, replacing him with a tea party-supported candidate who is now the state's junior senator.
Though he has worked with Democrats on some bills, Chaffetz has refused to budge on some of the biggest issues in Washington. In 2011, he voted against raising the debt ceiling, arguing Congress and Obama weren't reining in entitlement spending. Most economists said that if the limit hadn't been raised it would have triggered a global depression. Last month, Chaffetz voted against the so-called fiscal cliff deal because it involved raising levies on those making more than $450,000 annually. Taxes would have risen on all income levels had the deal not passed.
Chaffetz also voted against aid for victims of Superstorm Sandy, saying the bill was larded with pork. He did vote to delay another debt ceiling confrontation until May, but said he won't budge on automatic spending cuts scheduled to kick in next month or on his opposition to citizenship for illegal immigrants.
"The perception inside the Beltway is dramatically different than in hometown America," Chaffetz said. "Most people in my district believe we've compromised too much."
Chaffetz's district stretches from the southern Salt Lake City suburbs and Provo, home to Brigham Young University, to the high valleys of Wasatch County. Nearly half of the county's 23,000 residents live in this town. Once an overlooked rural community far from the Salt Lake City metropolitan area, it has recently seen an influx of more liberal-minded residents drawn by its proximity to storied ski resorts like nearby Park City. In Utah, this place is almost a swing county. Nonetheless, it voted 3-1 for Romney in November.

TRANSLATION. no date.
Dear Comrades,
We take the opportunity afforded by an quiet interval in our "no quarter" fight against reaction and the invaders who wish to bring our country under the heel of obscurantism and tyranny, to assure you of our enthusiasm and our firm intention to keep flying the flag of our resistance against the enemy's attacks. Now more than ever, the sinister figures who have invaded Austria and Czechoslovakia will meet in Spain the united bloc of the entire working-class opposing their intention to make Spain into a Fascist colony. But this united strength of the Spanish workers is not enough if they do not evoke in you help and class solidarity. It is for that reason that we ask you to forge iron unity among advanced political sections in your country, in order with them to render impossible the designs of Fascism to consummate once again the invasion of an independent and free nation.
Bear in mind, comrades, that the present conflict in Spain is not only a national fight, but that by reason of the circumstances of the historic moment in which we are living the trenches in Spain are the place where the fight is going on for the final liberation of the workers of the world, and that if some day the enemy, breaking down the formidable resistance of the Spanish workers, passes over our corpses, it will be not only the achievements of the Spanish workers which will be lost, but the social system of Europe which will be brought down, and, as a consequence of that, we would be brought to misery and our civilisation destroyed.
Once more we urge you, comrades of the British Trades' Unions, to apply your strength and your unity against the designs of Fascism, and not to tolerate totalitarian pacts and hesitation, but, to lay down your energetic action once and for all, so that the right of the nations to follow their own road in conformity with liberty, justice and fraternity, may be established.
Only in this manner can we continue to protect Europe and the world from the oppression which the leaders of international Fascism wish to impose on it.
For the independence of Spain, and the achievement of the demands of the workers of the world and of peace of the nations, we shall not halt in our fight until the enemy is conquered.

Shaping a Blue, Gold and Green Future
Mapping Smart, Sound and Bold Plans for Our Second Century
In the last five years, President Lester A. Lefton has proven his belief that actions speak louder than words. But he also believes that actions must be based on meticulous, strategic planning. Early in his presidency, he formed a universitywide committee to seek broad input about the future and update Kent State's existing strategic plan. The committee came back with a plan for the future that is true to the university's historic, public-service mission and focuses firmly on excellence. With an updated plan in place, each university division articulated specific actions - with specific measures - in support of the university's overarching strategic goals. Those divisional maps were aggregated into a single, concise Kent State University Strategy Map that was shared widely and is referenced daily.

Step 4: Roll your hair back inward against the bobby pins to create a twist, and use U-shaped pins to lock it in place. Set with strong-hold hairspray. Finish with a hit of shine spray or a dab of pomade to lock wispies in place.
How to Get the Look:
Step 1: Apply a smoothing product to damp hair and blow-dry, using a round brush.
Step 2: Go over one-inch sections of hair with a flat-iron for sleekness. Flick your wrist under at the ends to give them a slight bounce.
Step 3: Gather the top three-quarters of hair into a high pony. Secure with a hooked elastic. (It will save you from bumps!) Wrap a small piece of hair around base to cover it.
Step 4: Brush the and the loose section of hair together, blending them into one long seamless cascade.
