With the new Mac App Store, many Mac OS X developers are taking advantage of the frictionless distribution mechanism of the Mac App Store to distribute and monetize desktop applications. In fact, some top Mac App Store apps have been written and distributed using Titanium! In this multi-part series, we will explore the APIs and techniques necessary to build and distribute an application to the Mac App Store using Titanium Desktop.
@Stefane I was using the 1.2.0RC4 build for Lion support – that's that the error is trying to tell you. It should work if you flip the SDK version in tiapp.xml to 1.1.
It works with SDK version 1.2.0 RC3. Thanks Kevin!


Day 2 of KM-LAB's Alternative Escape: Green Room pre-show coverage, and we're more amped than ever. We can practically hear the rumble of subs, the rattling of snares, and the "tsk tsk"s of overbearing sound engineers. But let us not get ahead of ourselves. Rather, let's dive into the vibrant, frank, sunshine of today's Green Room, and continue stuffing our bags with Kodak disposables and two week's worth of outfits, grooving along to today's hot mix of Marsicans, Annabel Allum, and Vistas. Best prepare yourselves for this whopping gig.
As a small-minded American, of course I had to ask about the locales about which I know only wives tales but by which I am insatiably intrigued…and it's safe to say that Leeds is at the top of my list. With its stories of raunchy underground shows and full-speed-ahead music scene, I started off this Leeds-based band with some questions about their über-intriguing hometown.
Moving to the tunes that line these School Nights and beyond, I tapped into the band's dirty pop, stumbling upon buried treasure of wacky time signatures, striking chords, all wrapped together by good-n-dirty guitar music. With James' "songwrite every day" exceptional lyricism, Rob's love for path-diverting song structures and smack-you-in-the-face-with-how-clean-it-is production, Oli's steel and slide-tinged pop-fanaticism, and Cale's devotion to "heavy nature, heavy music," we've got the long-tailed reverbed, toe-tapping melodied worlds of Marsicans.
Shooting off of this teeming ground fostered by tourside Pringle fandangos and bubbling seas of happy fans, Marsicans hit us with a high-spirited Tour Diary from their recent UK spree. Complemented by knocked-down Airbnb walls and "inadvertently trying to break into our friend's neighbour's house," the band had one heck of a national tour. But that's not all! In addition to the Great Escape gamut, the band has nestled a BBC Radio 1 Stage at Reading and Leeds under their belt, soaring through gleaming stage lights along with some of their favourite bands.
Swing along with Marsicans at 1:45pm this Friday at The Alternative Escape, and you might just catch one of their latest unreleased tracks amidst their fantastically invigorating live set.
Punk fiend Annabel Allum has been hitting us with some pretty meaty tracks this year. We simply had to know more behind what spurred these thick, crunchy tracks. Shifting from primarily writing solo to composing along with the band, the newfound army force behind her tracks rings true in the slamming noise of 'Beat the Birds' and layered bliss of em(ily). "Laying down an idea and allowing them to have some influence in what they play. I don't pretend I know their instruments better than they do. It keeps things real that way," says Annabel.
Soaring to Number 4 on the Dutch indie charts has been just one of Annabel's 2018 trophies. Hearkening in the European crowds with last fall, Annabel's tour with Beth Ditto "completely changed [her] as a performer." Stepping out solo in front of over 2000 people every night holding nothing but a guitar, and soon after popping into Germany with the full band undoubtedly imbued Annabel with evermore angst and fortitude.
Powerful vocals, kickin' guitar melodies, four-on-the-floor smashes… where does this sound come from? Who inspires the band, and who in the band is in the music school posse? High school favorites like Two Door Cinema Club and The Strokes seeped their way into the boys' bones, driving them to pick up some guitars and get cracking. Match this with Graham's (drums) Led Zepp affinity, Jamie's (bass) Chicago punk infatuation, Prentice and Dylan's Beatles obsession as well as some contemporary faves such as Wolf Alice and Circa Waves and you have Vistas Fuel©. And Prentice himself, the music school posse-er of the group, gives the band that extra edge undoubtedly provided by endless hours of Bach transcriptions.
Diving into their latest release, we pop into the inner-workings of the cool-cat track that is 'Calm.' Vistas spoke to KM about their latest single 'Calm,' and what brought about those mellow drumpadded grooves.
Catch Vistas' sauntering grooves at 4:00pm at the Alternative Escape, and stay tuned for more festival dates, oh-so-clean self-designed album artwork, and of course, forthcoming releases.


From the age of eight, I have dreamed of living in Paris.
I started learning French in second grade, the same year a family friend returned from his junior year abroad in France. I adored looking at his post cards and photographs and vowed that one day I would see these glorious sights, especially the Eiffel Tower, for myself.
In 1977 my dream came true.
Our high school offered an exchange program with a high school in Arcachon, France. We would travel to their home town for three weeks (with a brief side trip to Paris) and the next month they would visit us in Connecticut.
On a cold February afternoon the charter bus pulled up beside the Trocadero platform. We quickly disembarked. It was drizzling rain, but we didn't care. This was the Eiffel Tower!
My friend handed me her camera – a Kodak instamatic – and asked if I would take her picture. She would then reciprocate. Of course I agreed.
Jen ran ahead to pose as I made sure the camera was ready to go. Behind me I thought I heard someone ask, You like? You like? but I ignored the voice. Who would be talking to me?
Jen was ready. I lifted the camera to my face.
You like? You like? This time the voice was louder – and closer.
I snapped the picture and then heard again. You like? You like?
A bit agitated, I turned around to see who was talking so loudly. And there, dressed in only an overcoat, open wide … was an old man wearing a black beret, a sleazy smile, and asking me once again if I liked.
I didn't know what to do. I was a naive seventeen-year-old girl. I ran straight to the bus and sat down. Fortunately no one asked why I was the first one to return. I was too embarrassed to share the experience with anyone.
I never got my picture in front of the tower. And quite frankly, I never cared if I saw the Tower again.
Fast forward to July, 2006 — nearly thirty years later!
I had scheduled my first group tour to Europe and qualified for a leader training session in Paris. We were there only two days, but I was determined to see as much of the city as I could – including the Tower.
I must admit I was a bit nervous walking from the Metro station to Trocadero Square. Although the weather was warm and no one wore an overcoat, I still maintained a keen awareness of all those around me.
A fellow teacher asked if I would take her picture. She would then reciprocate. Talk about deja vu!
I lifted the camera to my face, half expecting to hear You like? You like? behind me. But the only voices I heard were fellow tourists, as excited to see The Eiffel Tower as I was.
I finally had my picture taken with the Iron Lady – and we made amends.
Now look at her fondly instead of disdain. She has become a close intimate friend whom I must visit anytime I'm in town. No matter where I am in the city, I look for her silhouette, and she always brings a smile to my face.
I enjoy her company in the daytime, sitting on a park bench sharing my lunch with her — and I enjoy her in the evening as she illuminates the City of Lights. At the top of each hour her lights twinkle, and for those few brief moments, she is magical.
What a wonderful story! I love that you finally were able to get that photograph with the Tower! And I love how you describe your relationship with this special lady! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much for stopping by, Suzanne 🙂 It is indeed a story to remember, that's for sure!
Nice photo of you and the Tower from 1977 to 2006. You never forget memories like those!

I'm having a huge problem with safari. It won't load any https sites, so I can't even access say my gmail in safari. I trashed the .plist, but that didn't do anything. Anyone had this problem?
Ok, so I restarted and got rid of this problem, but now I have a different one. Safari isn't rendering any css at all, so everything I see just the html without the css applied.
Do you have a custom style sheet selected in the Advanced pane of Safari's Preferences? When you deleted the PLIST file, was Safari closed?


After Dark is the first real live album by The Make-Up. Their first one Destination: Love - Live! At Cold Rice was recorded within a studio setting, it was done so with an eye towards spontaneity and improvisation. "Live" sounds were later mixed into the studio recording to reflect this.


Demodex mites are the reasons for the skin condition is known by the name of red mange in dogs and cats alike. This is also known by the name of follicular mange or puppy mange. The Demodex mites either get themselves embedded into the skin of the pet or to the hair. As the mites number increases the dogs will find it itchy and irritating which generally leads to a skin infection.
As mentioned above Demodectic mange is also known as red mange, follicular mange, and puppy mange as it is mainly seen in younger dogs. The exact class of the mites would be Demodex canis. The mites can be noticed to be a similar structure to that of an alligator. They actually live under the follicles of the dogs. This is phenomenon is mainly caused due to the underdevelopment or as a result of the suppression of the immune system. This condition therefore has no relation to the house setting or the environment in which the dogs lives in. this is precisely why is it is found in younger dogs.
Demodectic mange always is accompanied with sever itchiness which is mainly caused by the yeast infections which accompanies the Demodex mites in dogs. The main results are loss of hair, scabbing and sores on the skin.
Mild fevers are another symptom which is related to Demodectic mange. Loss of appetite and lethargy are some of the other symptoms which accompany Demodex mite infection.
Vulnerable to diseases as Demodectic mite infection is a result of a poor immune system. This can lead to a lot of disease being faced by the dog.
It is also results in leathery skin and thick ear discharges especially in cats.
There are a lot of options to consider while taking up an action for treating Demodectic mange. The traditional treatment which is considered for treatment is to dip the dog in a powerful chemical pesticide which kills off the mites but also results in decreased body temperature, vomiting, diarrhea and so on.
The next treatment option includes lime sulfur dips which are characterized by a strong and pungent smell but is however an all-natural treatment mode. The ingredients used in the mixture are topical neem and cedar oil. Homeopathic treatments are also every effective against Demodectic mange. It can be followed by consulting a vet trained in homeopathic medication. There are many options in homeopathic medicines for the cure of mange in dogs. It is available online at attractive prices.
Order Kidney Support Gold from Pet Wellbeing! They are pioneers at making dog and cat health supplements. Equally, it will help you by aiding a natural support for your dog's kidney disease.
Demodex mites in dogs is a serious condition which has to be taken care of fast as it can weaken the immune system in the dogs which can lead to fatal medical conditions. Demodectic mange however is treatable with the right medicines without triggering any side effects.


Los presidentes de Perú, Chile y Colombia, junto al ministro de Economía mexicano, participaron en un foro sobre la Alianza del Pacífico en Nueva York.
10:00 | Lima, Nov. 17.
The Pacific Alliance (PA) —regional bloc composed of Peru, Mexico, Chile and Colombia— is an excellent integration initiative on this side of the region, Pacific Economic Cooperation Council (PECC) Secretary-General Eduardo Pedrosa underlined.
The bloc's relevance lies not only in its trade exchange, but also in the integration its member economies are reaching, he affirmed.
The PECC official also highlighted the meeting between PA nations and Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Forum's economies, as part of Leaders' Week currently underway in Lima.
In this respect, APEC Leaders are paying increasing attention to the PA, and both integration blocs have plenty to learn from each other, Pedrosa observed.
APEC 2016 Leaders' Meeting, taking place on November 19-20, will also feature Presidents Pedro Pablo Kuczynski (Peru) Michelle Bachelet (Chile), Enrique Peña Nieto (Mexico) and Juan Manuel Santos (Colombia).
While not an APEC Forum economy, Colombia has requested accession to the bloc. Its Leader Juan Manuel Santos has been invited to attend the APEC CEO Summit and will participate in the informal dialogue between PA and APEC.
On the other hand, Pedrosa regards new incorporations into the APEC Forum are not very likely given the lack of a membership-expansion policy. Integration is one of the vital achievements, he noted.

PETER Ostenfeld flew over the Brooms Head fire in his ultralight plane yesterday about 9am and his daughter Sarah took some amazing photos.
"We actually came in at the Brooms Head Road near Townsend and the smoke was south of the Brooms Head Road," he said.
At that time he said it was almost continuous fire all the way from Townsend to Sandon.
He said helicopters were water-bombing the area as he flew above at 4000 feet, and he saw an explosion by the road that he presumed was a car.


Som vi vet alle, Notisblokk er tekst editor for Windows som standard. I Mac-maskiner, users get TextEdit as the text editor by default. This editor does not stand much closer to the advanced features of Notepad. Mac users strive to get their hands on such an effective text editor as Notepad++. Dermed, Mac users look for the other alternatives. The search for text editor ends with Notepad++. ja, you have heard it right. Scroll further down to know more about the same.
Readers may be wondering what Notepad++ actually is. It is an application that offers various features as compared to normal text editors. This software supports diverse programming languages. It even features Perl Compatible Regular Expression (PCRE), auto-completion, syntax folding, multiple document editing, syntax highlighting, zoom in/out, playback, macro recording, replace/search, bokmerker, and whatnot.
Notepad++ is open source and free software, which was released by Don Ho in 2003. This program is based on Scintilla and written in the language C++. It makes the process of code editing a lot easier. One enjoys other features like line markers, code breakpoints, line numbering, error indicators, og mange andre.
Notepad++ is one of the most popular text editors due to its extensive characteristics, 84-language support, and free program. This software has also claimed numerous awards like Best Programming Text Editor for Windows in two years, 2014 og 2011 from Lifehacker.
Dessverre, one cannot download Notepad++ on Mac. There are various reasons for why is it not possible to download Notepad++ on Mac. The most important reason is Notepad++ relies comprehensively on Win32 API. Win32 API is a 32-bit API (Application Programming Interface) that works on newer versions for Windows. This programming interface comprises various components such as devices, threads, file systems, error handling, and processes.
Win32 API is even responsible for the recognized look of Windows worldwide. Sammen, it also offers the feel that Window users find so tempting about its operating system. Derfor, Notepad++ cannot exist without Win32 API.
Notepad++ is not a profit-making project as it is available free of cost. If it were so, it would be possible to develop Notepad++ for Mac and Linux. på den andre siden, one cannot even port this program to other operating systems due to compatibility issues. Men, some ways can help you to download Notepad++ for Mac. Read further t to know about them.
Som nevnt over, Notepad++ relies heavily on Win32 API. Likevel, there are some ways to run this program on Mac computers. For det første, you can provide the required API to the program or secondly, you can rewrite this program that does not rely anymore on Win32 API. The second case is not likely to happen soon, whereas the former is quite possible. It can be done through emulators and virtual machines.
I tillegg til det, this program recreates the directory structures. It even offers alternative implementations of system libraries, system services, and various other components. Notepad++ mac works perfectly with the help of earlier versions of Wine such as Platinum and Gold.
Trinn 1: Download Wine from this site and install the same on your PC.
Trinn 2: You need to double-tap on the program.
Trinn 3: Nå, create a forged C drive to keep Windows applications by adding winecfg to the terminal.
Trinn 4: Get Notepad++ from the official site. You can keep this program in the desired directory.
Trinn 5: Open that created terminal and look for the Notepad++ directory.
Trinn 6: Begin the installation of the Notepad++ .exe file. For dette, you need to enter "wine (the file's name).exe" to the terminal.
Nå, you can enjoy Notepad++ for mac as well. The major advantage of Wine is that one can run Notepad++ mac along with other macOS applications. Men, you can face some bugs while performing tasks on Notepad++ via Wine. It works perfectly if you use Notepad++ to edit files occasionally. If used extensively, Notepad++ could be unfeasible. So as to solve this feasibility issues, you can take help of virtual software.
There are several virtual software available in the market that make it possible to use Notepad++ for Mac. En slik programvare er VMware Fusion. Dette virtuelle Programmet oppretter en virtuell Windows oppsett på Mac-systemer. med VMware, du kan bruke alle Windows-program du velger på Mac.
VMware kan du til og dele samme utklippstavlen på Mac. På denne måten, du kan kopiere og lime tekst eller bilde på tvers av ulike operativsystemer fra Notepad ++ mac. Så, alt du trenger å gjøre er å lære å utføre denne oppgaven. Du trenger en Windows kopi til å bære på denne oppgaven.
Som du vet, everyone goes after Notepad++ when it comes to a text editor. Dessverre, Mac users find it unfair as there is no such application is available for them. Notepad++ is the topmost priority of Windows users because of its features like customizable interface, normal search option, macro recording, syntax highlighting, og diverse andre.
her, we have tried to incorporate some of the best alternatives to Notepad++ for Mac. With these Notepad++ mac options, you can also enjoy the features of Notepad++ on Mac as well. Let's move on to our list of the ten best alternatives to Notepad++ for Mac.
Brackets is another great option for text editing. It is developed by Adobe and available at free of cost. What makes this program great is its unique feature "Trekke ut". This feature allows you to extract different gradients, colors, measurements, and fonts out of a PSD file. Senere, converts that file into a CSS file.
UltraEdit is one of the expensive text editors in the market. This program offers advanced features like column/block editing, cross-file search, syntax highlighting, multi-select, scripting, etc. Man kan redigere mer enn én fil om gangen med UltraEdit.

Work-integrated Learning in a Doctoral Course in Informatics2016In: Proceedings of IRIS39, Information Systems Research Seminar in Scandinavia, Ljungskile, August 7-10, 2016 / [ed] Pareto, Lena, Svensson, Lars, Lundin, Johan, Lundh Snis, Ulrika Lundh Snis, 2016, p. 1-11Conference paper (Other academic)
Being the first university in the world to provide doctoral program in Work-integrated Learning (WIL), we face the challenge of how to integrate doctoral courses into the WIL philosophy, which is the profile of the University West, Sweden. To exemplify what we mean by such a notion of integration, we introduce and demonstrate our proposed ontological approach to integrate a PhDcourse into the fundamental concepts underpinning WIL. The WIL within the context of informatics research (which is a subfield of the IS discipline) playsfive different roles of (1) the main course content, (2) the target occupation ofthe students and occupational field of the teachers, (3) the analytical perspective of the research activities in the course, (4) the educational method where teachers and students conduct collaborative research activities as a cognitive apprenticeship learning model, and (5) a co-authored research paper as outcome.The outcomes of such a conducted approach and lessons learned from the course will be thoroughly described. In the course, a meta-analysis of WIL informatics research will be performed to examine four dimensions which are: theories relevant for WIL; methods used in WIL research; occupational fields in WIL informatics studies; and roles of technology in WIL research. The course is arranged in the these phases: Local investigation; locally rooted research within the informatics field is examined by the course participants in dialogue with the authors of a number of published articles in order to see the extent and the how aspects of these identified WIL-oriented research work; Local synthesis; both teachers and the PhD students (i.e., course participants) explore the results and synthesize a local WIL-model; Global overview; a number of related international literature is selected and studied; Global synthesis; The local WIL model is compared to the global investigation. Co-authoring; a research paper is co-authored by the course participants and presented at a conference. By doing so, we enhance our understandings and thus contribute to one additional practical application of WIL's pedagogical philosophy, which influences the course content, the course format, the activities, the teaching-learning model,and the outcome of the course.

The Sound Bubble: A context-sensitive space in the space2017In: Organised Sound, ISSN 1355-7718, E-ISSN 1469-8153, Vol. 22, no 1, p. 130-139Article in journal (Refereed)
The design of sonic environments is in need of more active strategies, taking into account not only the physical but also the social and sensorial aspects of a place. This implies abandoning traditional, mono-disciplinary responses in favour of interdisciplinary methods and approaches. In this study we explored the possibility of inserting context-sensitive sound textures to improve the experience of an activity-based office workplace. For this purpose, we developed the concept of the 'sound bubble' - a micro-space in which the user is embedded by a semi-transparent added sound environment that will operate as a subtle sound mask, attracting the attention without needing to hide the disturbing environment. This should help users (the workers) to stay in an 'everyday listening' mode. This means, not focusing on the environment in particular but on their tasks, while preserving the link with the surrounding space and activities.

My sound space: An attentional shield for immersive redirection2018In: AM'18 Proceedings of the Audio Mostly 2018 on Sound in Immersion and Emotion: ACM International Conference Proceeding Series, Association for Computing Machinery , 2018, article id a9Conference paper (Refereed)
In the context of extended reality, the term immersion is commonly used as a property denoting to which extent a technology can deliver an illusion of reality while occluding the users' sensory access to the physical environment. In this paper we discuss an alternative interpretation of immersion, used in the My Sound Space project. The project is a research endeavor aiming to develop a sound environment system that enables a personalized sound space suitable for individual work places. The medium, which in our case is sound, is transparent and thus becomes an entangled part of the surrounding environment. This type of immersion is only partly occluding the users sensory access to physical reality. The purpose of using the sound space is not to become immersed by the sounds, rather to use the sounds to direct cognitive attention to get immersed in another cognitive activity. © 2018 Association for Computing Machinery.
Designing activity-based and context-sensitive ambient sound environments in open-plan offices2015In: Proceedings of the 38th Information Systems Research Seminar in Scandinavia (IRIS 38), Oulo, Finland, 9-12 August, 2015. / [ed] Anssi Öörni, Netta Iivari, Kari Kuutti, Harri Oinas-Kukkonen and Mikko Rajanen, 2015Conference paper (Refereed)
This paper address the problem of sound disturbance in open office environments. We have in a design-based research study explored how digital, real time generated sound can be added to a work environment and how these sound environments are perceived by respondents when performing work tasks. Being such a complex situation, we have in this first explorative study chosen to focus on designing a digital sound system for activity-based offices, where the physical environment is already designed for particular activities. Our approach is to explore if workplaces can be enhanced by adding appropriate acoustic designs to the ambient environment. Our results show that test subjects perceived that acoustic design could enhance the ambient environments if the acoustic design is pertinent with the environment as a whole.

Our approach is to explore if adding appropriate acoustic designs to the ambient environment can enhance workplaces. Our results show that test subjects perceived that acoustic design could enhance the ambient environments if the acoustic design is pertinent with the environment as a whole.
Sound Bubbles for Productive Office Work2016In: Nordic Contributions in IS Research: 7th Scandinavian Conference on Information Systems, SCIS 2016 and IFIP8.6 2016, Ljungskile, Sweden, August 7-10, 2016, Proceedings / [ed] Ulrika Lundh Snis, Cham: Springer International Publishing , 2016, Vol. 259, p. 29-42Conference paper (Refereed)
A growing number of organizations are moving towards more open and collaborative workplaces. In these offices workers share a common open space, often with flexible seating based on activities, so called activity-based offices. Most problems in these workplaces are related to sound. Thus, the question of how to design suitable acoustic environments, supporting both collaborative and individual work, has emerged. Noise-reduction approaches do not suffice. In this study we explored the possibility of adding context-sensitive, activity-based sound environments to enhance the office workplace. For this purpose, we developed the "sound bubble," a prototype for individual work, sonically immersing the listener and generating a sensation of an encapsulating sonic environment. A total of 43 test subjects participated in an experience-based test using the sound bubble prototype while conducting self-selected, ordinary work tasks in their office landscape. Their behaviors during the test were observed and documented. All participants took a post-experience questionnaire about experiences working in the sound bubble, and two subjects were interviewed. The responses show that the sound bubble can enhance auditory work conditions for individual work that demands concentration.

The Sound Bubble: An Aesthetic Additive Design Approach to Actively Enhance Acoustic Office Environments2019In: Proceedings of 13th conference on Sound and Music Computing, Hamburg 2016, Hamburg: Zentrum für Mikrotonale Musik und Multimediale Komposition (ZM4), Hochschule für Musik und Theater , 2019, p. 253-260Conference paper (Refereed)
Moving towards more open and collaborative workplaces has been an emerging trend in the last decades. This change has led to workers sharing a common open space, with seating's based on current activity, so called activity-based offices. Consequently, it becomes difficult to design sonic environments that cater to different needs in the same space. In this study we explored the possibility of adding site-specific but location-adaptive sound environments to enhance the experience of an activity-based office workplace. For this purpose, we developed the concept of the "sound bubble," a micro-space in which the user is embedded by a semi-transparent sound environment. The purpose of the bubble is to help the user ignore irrelevant and disturbing noise while working in an open landscape. The sound bubble supports the user to stay in "everyday listening" mode, i.e., not focusing on anything particular in the surrounding environment while being able to keep a link with it. The sound bubble was evaluated by a total of 43 test subjects participating in an experience-based test, conducting their usual work tasks in an office landscape. Our results show that the sound bubble can enhance auditory work conditions for individual work requiring concentration.
