My professor and I have been trying to publish a paper, but it keeps being rejected. A journal emailed my professor asking her to submit the paper to them, but I am not sure it is legitimate.   None its papers have DOIs. It is OA, but only one issue is available and it has &lt;5 papers   Are these warning signs?
A colleague and I recently submitted a paper to a journal with an impressive-sounding name, the "International Journal of Artificial Intelligence and Computational Research". According to ,      IJAICR is a referred [sic] journal in the field of computer science, artificial intelligence and soft computing methods.   It was accepted two days after we submitted it. That's too fast. We were suspicious. Although the journal said that all papers are peer-reviewed, we could not see how that was done in two days. Plus, we received no comments from the reviewers. Also, the submission guidelines didn't ask for a "blind" copy (without our names or any references to who we were).   But wait, there's more.  The acceptance letter asked us to send them US$300 to publish it. We did not. We've withdrawn our submission and will submit a new version of the paper to a more reputable journal in the coming months.  How might we make a better choice of respectable journals before we submit next time?
why can't `_` be exported to the environment of bash? In bash, why can't _ be exported to the environment of the shell?  $ export _ $ export | grep _= $   output nothing. Or do I miss something?

PHP replaces spaces with underscores Let's say a 10N cube (in air, on Earth) rests flat on a scale at the bottom of a tank of water, and the scale reads 8N, so there is 2N of buoyant force on the cube.  How does the buoyant force manifest itself on the cube?  I assume the force is normal to the surface of the scale, but if there isn't any water under the cube, how does the water push up on the cube? Why is $1^{\infty}$ considered to be an indeterminate form Trailing spaces on comment link format Trailing spaces on comment link format preventing it to form a link  [Stack Overflow ](http://stackoverflow.com)   May be by-design or even dup, but just reporting what I accidentally found today. Let $f$ be a measurable function on a measure space $X$ and suppose that $fg \in L^1$ for all $g\in L^q$. Must $f$ be in $L^p$, for $p$ the conjugate of $q$? If we assume that $\|fg\|_1 \leq C\|g\|_q$ for some constant $C$, this follows from the Riesz Representation theorem. But what if we aren't given that such a $C$ exists? Browning Avocados - What Helps? Years ago  asked "Oxidized Avocado: What's Going on &amp; How to Prevent It?" That question has been merged with this one because it's dealing with the same issue.  Recently, we had this question: . Now I'm just curious, I want an answer.  After Logophobe's answer to the acidity question, and my own research backing up that answer, I feel like I know less than I did before!  Lemon contains more ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) and citric acid than limes, yet limes are more acidic overall. Distilled vinegar is more acidic than lemons and almost as acidic as limes,  is an extremely highly concentrated mixture of ascorbic acid and citric acid specifically developed to prevent browning in fruits.  So what works to keep avocados pretty and green?  Perhaps some experimentation is in order. I think I'll start with acids, since the common wisdom is that acid helps keep avocados green.  EDIT As of 1/8/15, I have added a new answer, as the highly upvoted one really only says what doesn't help. The accepted answer  shows the results of further experimentation, and what does help. Flight cancelled but doesn't show up on status I booked a SpiceJet flight from Dubai to Ahmedabad on Dec 16 (SG-16) scheduled to depart at 7:25 PM. At noon I received an SMS from SpiceJet to advise me that my flight has been delayed by 4h 50m. Sure enough, when I checked flight status on SpiceJet's website, that was the case. But on other websites like flightstats.com and dubaiairports.ae, the status was that flight was "delayed by 2h 25m".    At 5 PM, I got an SMS that flight had been cancelled. I double checked on Spicejet's website and that too showed the flight to be cancelled. But both flightstats.com and dubaiairports.ae still showed the flight as delayed by 2h 25m.    I went to the airport and met SpiceJet officials. Sure enough, the flight was cancelled. But somehow, the flight cancellation status never made it to the system. I have a Tripit Pro account, and even that never sent me an alert for that. I contacted the travel agent through which I booked my flight (makemytrip) for a refund, and they said that their system doesn't show that flight was cancelled. Now, even the Spicejet website has removed the cancellation status from that flight.    Apart from the SMS, I now have no proof that my flight was cancelled.    Can someone tell me, how can I proceed with a refund claim? I wonder if there is somewhere an explanation for the parameters that can be set when running the Algorithm "Join Attributes by Location" in QGIS 2.18.  I had a look here:       but there is no explanation. Any hints? Prove that $ \int _a^b\:f\left(x\right)\:\:dx\:=\:\int _a^b\:f\left(a+b-x\right)\:\:dx $ This is the prove- $y=a+b-x$. Then $dy/dx=-1$ and thus $$\int_a^bf(a+b-x)dx= \int_b^a-f(y)dy = \int_a^bf(x)dx$$  But I dont understand the last part of this - Why ? $$\int_b^a-f(y)dy = \int_a^bf(x)dx$$  I know that $\int_b^a-f(y)dy = \int_a^bf(y)dy $. But something is not clear to me. Do black holes have a moment of inertia? My question is in the title: Do black holes have a moment of inertia?  I would say that it is: $$I ~\propto~ M R_S^2,$$ where $R_S$ is the Schwarzschild radius, but I cannot find anything in the literature. Story is in a medievalish setting and starts with a woman who has been falsely accused of being a witch being taken by 2 men to be sacrificed to a dragon.  She ends up befriending the (male) dragon, who is able to transform into various forms, including human, and can speak only the language of whatever form he is in. e.g. can speak English in human form, but can't in dragon form.  He needs to return to his dragon form every day at sunrise or he dies.  Contact with iron or steel causes him pain and prevents him from transforming.  Near the end of the book, he's been put in handcuffs by one of the two men from the start and the woman has to get the assistance of the other one (village blacksmith?) to remove them before sunrise, which they manage to do just in time.  I think I read it maybe 10 years ago.    I also remember it was a very short book, probably only about 100 pages. LaTeX conditional expression I would like to be able to set a flag at the beginning of the main flag (say output) that tells if I want to produce a paper document or an electronic document.   Then I should check this flag to define or not empty pages, hypperref, oneside or twosides, etc.  How could I do that ? Is it possible to migrate programs from 32 bit Windows to a new 64 bit Windows machine (both Windows 7)? I've got a Windows 7 Pro 32 bit PC. Getting a new Windows 7 Home 64 bit.  Is there anything I can use to transfer my  programs (the ones that don't come in a 64 bit flavor)  to the new PC? There is a related  that doesn't address the programs part. Objects not showing in final render When I switch to render mode, they show up, and they show when pressing F12, but when clicking the 'Animation' button, nothing shows. If anyone knows how to help, please do.  Edit: I have enabled rendering using the cameras, still nothing.  Edit #2: What the, some how transferring all of the objects from layer 1-2 does the trick. I guess my camera was set up for the second layer even though it was physically in the 1st. Anyone like to explain?  For anyone who's really curious, :  Also, it may seem like having the animation length of 1 frame seem bad, but I've done that for other files and they work fine. There's vs There are For example:     There's two options here   or     There are two options here   I hear a lot of people say the first line (or something similar), but isn't that incorrect? Isn't it plural and therefore you should use "there are"? Wrap text at any point if normal hyphenation not possible I have data (generated from a database, not manually typed in) that mostly fits into a table cell with fixed width, but sometimes overflows because there are long words for which no hyphenation is found.  The problem can be demonstrated with the following example:  \documentclass{article} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \begin{document} \begin{tabular}{|p{1cm}|p{4cm}|} 1 &amp; Cell where normal hyphenation is possible ÄÖÜ \\ 2 &amp; CellwherenormalhyphenationisnotpossiblebutshouldwrapinsteadofoverflowÄÖÜ \end{tabular} \end{document}   My requirements are:   Text never overflows the cell (assuming some minimum width such that at least a handful characters have place) First priority measure to achieve 1. is the normal hyphenation If 2. fails, it is allowed to break the word at any character, so fill the line and break just before overflow would happen (disregarding normal hyphenation rules)   In the example, the overflow in cell 1 is prevented by measure 2., the normal hyphenation. The second cell overflows. I would like to have this cell treated by measure 3.  For the answer please consider:   Package seqsplit didn't help me The custom macro \wrap proposed in the answer to  comes near my wish, but can't handle the non-ascii characters ÄÖÜ (independent if they are input with utf8 input encoding or with \"A\"O\"U) As the text comes from a database, no manual editing of the cell content is wanted.   One of my ideas was to insert \linebreak[0] after every character, to tell LaTeX that a break can be made if no better opportunities exist. But this doesn't work like intended.  Thanks for your suggestions! Can I travel in UK before switching to a study visa? As I read in general visitor visa Terms &amp; Condition, I would only be granted to stay up to 6 months in UK. However I am planning to apply for General Student Visa to further my studies. Would it be possible for me to enter UK as visitor for first 6 months/less before I apply for student visa in the same year if I want to travel and study on the same year? New phone: How to transfer game progress? I'm planning to buy a new Android phone and I'd like to be able to transfer the progress I have made at several games to the new device, so I won't have to play all the levels again from scratch.  I currently have an HTC Desire and will buy an HTC Evo 3D.  There's probably no simple/general solution to this.  But I was wondering if anyone did something similar and could provide some advice (e.g. where to look for files that might hold game progress information). Can you partition an infinite set, into an infinite number of infinite sets?
