Since last June (2012) approximately 125 of my gigs were in some way connected to the Woody Guthrie centennial year. Some are as yet to happen before it all comes to a close at the end of May 2013. Either way you look at it, those gigs ate up a lot of time and miles. The arlonet schedule is arranged by calendar year, because it's logical, and we all understand it. But, the touring year - the time frame for a 'season' defined by the theaters and concert halls is uniquely different. The season begins in June and runs thru the following May. So when you 'expand' the schedule here on arlonet you'll discover that tours with different names, or have a particular theme cross over from one year to the next with little attention to what year it is. That is also the reason that some dates are not posted even though we know what's coming, as some venues would rather we didn't give away their schedules in advance until they can announce it themselves. I am perpetually confused by this, but we have to defer to their judgement (usually by contractual arrangements).
So, we are beginning to fill in the blanks in the arlonet calendar for the coming season, and a new touring year begins soon. This coming summer (2013) is pretty much nailed down with some solo shows here and there. I'll be taking some time off the road as well as there's a lot of work that needs to get done on The Farm - Abe & Lisa have started an amazing bunch of projects, from maple syrup to bees and orchards and Lord knows what else just to keep the place up and running. Annie & Deb are holding down the fortress on the hill keeping the offices and logistical stuff going. It's a crew and a half. I just wanna bask in the summer sun like a seal and roll into the water from time to time.
ADG, take it easy, but take it. You deserve it. Know about that work that needs to be done around the farm, too.
Happy wandering and folkslinging Arlo. And glad to hear the family is (are?) keeping the home-fires burning brightly See you down the road somewhere!
Happy Trails. i'm glad you are taking some time off to grow and glow, or whatever! much l <3 ve!
Hey adg, Thanks for the update. Love and Hug to you too!
Have a great spring and summer hon. You deserve it. Hope you add Richmond, Va to your schedule. It does exist lol. Hugs.
Arlo ,have a great summer and enjoy your "me" time.
Say Hi to everyone in Alaska, my brother is at the show in Anchorage!


How to Import Your Research Into Scrivener — Well-Storied.
Let's break down everything you need to know in today's video lesson and transcript, which is excerpted from our Storytelling With Scrivener video tutorial course. Click here to learn more about the course today!
The first thing you need to know about importing files into Scrivener is that, with the exception of basic text files, all of your research must first be imported into the Research folder in your Binder before you can move it elsewhere in your project, if you so wish. Text files such as Word documents or Plain Text, however, can be imported directly into any folder in your Binder.
What kinds of files can Scrivener import? Many! You can add text documents, images, audio and video files, webpages, multi-markdown files, and even other Scrivener projects into your Research folder, among others.
#1: Importing Files From Your Computer.
To begin importing, highlight the Research folder in your Binder, then head up to File > Import and take a look at the options in the pop-out menu. Selecting "Files" will allow you to import most any file from your computer, including the text documents, images, audio and video files, and so on we talked about a moment ago.
Simply ensure that the file is downloaded to your computer first, then use the import window to select and import the file into Scrivener.
Your next option allows you to import webpages directly from the internet. To do so, first select Webpages in the File > Import menu, then type in the exact webpage you want to import in the text box that appears in the import window.
Make sure to type in the full and exact address of the webpage you'd like to import, otherwise Scrivener may not be able to process the request. I personally find it easier to just copy and paste the web address directly from the internet. You can then use the "Title" text box to choose what you'd like the Webpage document to be titled when it is imported into your Research folder.
Firstly, it may take a few moments for your webpage to import depending on how complex the webpage itself is. Any webpage that utilizes lots of graphics or videos may import slowly, and it's possible that the formatting will be slightly skewed upon import as well.
Another thing to note is that importing a webpage imports the content as is. If the website updates the page, those updates will not appear in your Research folder. If you know you want to save a webpage that will be updated often, you can link to a webpage using References, which is a different feature we'll discuss in another video lesson in our course.
You can also click and drag a webpage directly into your Research folder by clicking on the icon next to website's address in your browser, then dragging that icon into your Scrivener Project window and on into the Research folder. Again, the webpage may take a minute to fully import and appear.
Heading back to our File > Import menu, you'll next notice an option to Import Research Files as Aliases and to Import Plain Text Formatted Screenplays. These are options that I don't think the vast majority of novelists will have reason to use, so we'll skip them for now.
#3: Importing a Separate Scrivener Project.
Moving right along, we next have the option to import an entirely separate Scrivener Project. Importing a Scrivener Project will import ALL of its documents and folder, including the Manuscript, Research, and Trash folders.
Once imported, the project as a whole will appear as a single folder in your Binder. You can then open and navigate this folder and all of its subfolders and documents as you would any other folder in your Binder.
#4: Importing Documents from Other Projects.
It's also worth mentioning that you can click and drag individual documents and folders from a separate Scrivener Project into your current project to import them. With two Scrivener Projects opened, simply click the document or folder you'd like to import into the other Project, then drag it into your new project window and drop it anywhere you'd like within your Binder. Ta-da!
#5: Importing Files From Your Finder.
Similarly, you can also click and drag documents directly from your computer into the Scrivener Binder. Simply open up your Finder on Mac or the File Explorer on your PC, then click and drag. You can even do so directly from your desktop. Neat, right?
#6: Importing & Splitting Documents.
Alright, this had been a lot of information, I know. But we still have one remaining Import option we need to discuss, and that is the Import And Split feature in your File > Import menu.
Using this option, you can import a single text file as multiple documents within your Binder. To do so, you'll first want to find the text file you'd like to import on your computer and open it separately.
With the file open, decide where you'd like the file to split into multiple documents when imported into Scrivener, then place a unique symbol at this separation point. You can use a pound sign, an asterisk, whatever you'd like. Just make sure it isn't a symbol that also appears elsewhere in your file at a place you would NOT want your file to split when imported.
When you've finished inputting the symbol that will separate your file into multiple, save and exit your file. Back in your Scrivener Project, head up to File > Import, and select the Import and Split Option.
In the window that appears, first highlight the file you'd like to import, then tell Scrivener what symbol you've input to mark the separation points in your file. If you don't see the option to do so, click on the options button. You're looking for the "Sections are separated by" text box.
Type your symbol into this text box, then select the "Import" button to import and split your single document into several. You can then rename these imported documents as you see fit by double-clicking on the file names in your Binder.
And those are all of your major research import options in Scrivener, writers. Remember, the Research folder essentially works the same as any other folder in your Binder. You can always create new sub-folders and documents to better organize your research if you so wish.
I hope this lesson has helped demystify the import options for you so you can better make use of all of that research you're completing for your project, writer. See you in our next lesson!

Q: codeUnits property vs utf8.encode function in Dart I have this little code:
void main(List<String> args) {
  const data = 'amigo+/=:chesu';
  var encoded = base64Encode(utf8.encode(data));
  var encoded2 = base64Encode(data.codeUnits);
  var decoded = utf8.decode(base64Decode(encoded));
  var decoded2 = utf8.decode(base64Decode(encoded2));

  print(encoded);
  print(encoded2);
  print(decoded);
  print(decoded2);
}

The output is:
YW1pZ28rLz06Y2hlc3U=
YW1pZ28rLz06Y2hlc3U=
amigo+/=:chesu
amigo+/=:chesu

codeUnits property gives an unmodifiable list of the UTF-16 code units, is it OK to use utf8.decode function? or what function should be used for encoded2?

A: It's simply not a good idea to do base64Encode(data.codeUnits) because base64Encode encodes bytes, and data.codeUnits isn't necessarily bytes.
Here they are (because all the characters of the string have code points below 256, they are even ASCII.)
Using ut8.encode before base64Encode is good. It works for all strings.
The best way to convert from UTF-16 code units to a String is String.fromCharCodes.
Here you are using base64Encode(data.codeUnits) which only works if the data string contains only code units up to 255. So, if you assume that, then it means that decoding that can be done using either latin1.decode or String.fromCharCodes.
Using ascii.decode and utf8.decode also works if the string only contains ASCII (which it does here, but which isn't guaranteed by base64Encode succeeding).
In short, don't do base64Encode(data.codeUnits). Convert the string to bytes before doing base64Encode, then use the reverse conversion to convert bytes back to strings.

A: I tried this
  print(utf8.decode('use âsmartâ symbols like â thisâ'.codeUnits));

and got this
use "smart" symbols like ' this'

The " and ' are smart characters from iOS keyboard

The Avera on Louise campus is adding another building – this one to support a range of services from strength and conditioning to physical therapy and volleyball.
The 60,000-square-foot, $14 million Human Performance Center will be built to the south and west of the current construction, which includes a 24-bed surgical hospital and a focus on orthopedics, gastroenterology, rheumatology and internal medicine, as well as the Avera Addiction Care Center.
It makes the campus a health care destination, said Dave Flicek, president and CEO of Avera McKennan Hospital & University Health Center.
The Human Performance Center will support the needs of many of those patients as well as the broader community, said Ann Heiman, assistant vice president for orthopedics, therapy and sports medicine.
Many of those services are spread out across Sioux Falls, causing patients to be referred to various places, she said.
A sports medicine space will include a clinic offering nonoperative treatment, biomechanical evaluations and specialized instructions after an injury or concussion.
There also will be a modern therapy gym with an antigravity treadmill, Pilates equipment, isokinetic balance equipment, a gait-analysis treadmill with a 3-D motion-capture system, as well as an underwater treadmill and an aquatic therapy pool.
The center will accommodate everyone from an orthopedics patient to a student athlete or adult "weekend warrior," Heiman said.
The building will be home to Athletic Republic, Avera's sports performance training program in Sioux Falls. This area includes a biomechanics lab, cardio equipment room, performance weight room, cycling room, turf and plyometrics floor. Specialized equipment includes super treadmills and a hockey treadmill. The space will include a room for movement classes such as yoga, Pilates, tai chi and more. It will be home to AR-FIT classes for active adults of all ages.
Sports psychology and sports nutrition also will be included in the new center.
The facility will house features for the general population too, including a nutrition bar, cycling center and mind-body fitness center.
A gym will provide space for seven volleyball courts and become the new home of the Avera Sports Kairos elite volleyball program, which reaches 3,500 athletes and doesn't have its own physical location.
"We rent gyms everywhere, so we'll be able to house that in one location," Heiman said.
A second phase will become the future home of Avera Sports Warwick Workouts and South Dakota Attack Basketball, which operate out of the Avera Sports Center at 85th Street and Minnesota Avenue, though a time frame hasn't been set.
Avera plans to keep that location as well as the Avera Sports Dome near 41st Street and West Avenue .
Construction of the first phase of the Human Performance Center will start in the fall, and the building is scheduled to open in December of 2019. The Avera Addiction Care Center at Avera on Louise will open in September of 2019, and the surgical hospital and medical office building will open in October of 2019.

Early season adversity shapes Storm
Tue 10 May 2016, 03:08 PM
An ability to overcome early season adversity has Storm well placed ahead of Saturday's clash with the top of the table Cowboys.
Craig Bellamy is proud of the way his side has handled its growing injury list to currently sit third on the competition ladder.
However he is under no illusion that Storm's greatest challenge now awaits at Suncorp Stadium this weekend .
Be at AAMI Park when we take on the Panthers, Saturday 4 June, 7:30pm.
The master tactician was frank when asked whether the Round 10 match-up with the Cowboys feels like his side's biggest challenge of the year.
"It doesn't feel like it, it is," Bellamy said.
"We havn't played the premiers yet and they are playing as well as they were last year when they won the competition.
"They havn't had too many injuries with their team either, they've been very stable with their 17 each week. That is another bonus for them to have the same team week in, week out.
"There are so many good players at that club, they are playing really well at the moment."
The Cowboys' 7-2 record has come on the back of a largely unchanged line-up while Storm, although holding the same win-loss ledger, have endured weekly changes due to injury.
Eight outside back combinations in the opening nine rounds have not been ideal but the Victorian side has taken the hurdle in their stride.
The ability for his side to overcome the early season adversity is something the Storm coach has taken great pride in.
"Both Tohu (Harris) and Benny (Hampton) are playing out of position but they are doing a really good job for us at the moment so hopefully they can keep that up," Bellamy said.
"It is not a position they are used to playing and we are playing against the premiers so it is going to be a big ask for them without a doubt.
"Hopefully they can get some help from their teammates and do a good job there.
"Our guys have been competing really well and hanging in there through the tough times. Hopefully we can do the same again on Saturday night."

How does climate compare to weather?
What is a climate biome?
Why can biomes with similar characteristics exist in different geographical locations?
Which climate related factors shape biomes and how might they affect which organisms live in a particular biome?
Because climate determines plant growth, it also influences the number and variety of other organisms in a terrestrial biome. Biodiversity generally increases from the poles to the equator. It is also usually greater in more humid climates.
Climate is the most important abiotic (non-living) factor affecting the distribution of terrestrial biomes of different types. Climate determines the growing conditions in an area, so it also determines what plants can grow there.
The two most important factors in the climate of an area are temperature and precipitation. The yearly average temperature of the area is obviously important, but the yearly range in temperature is also important. Some areas have a much larger range between highest and lowest temperature than other areas.
IT IS AMAZING: Quick Answer: What is the importance of biodiversity for development class 9?
The primary factor which determines a biome is the climate. Temperature and precipitation essentially determines what kind of growing season or soil quality the terrain may have,which therefore affects the growth of plants living there.
Climate is the average weather of a region over a long period of time. Climate is typically classified according to air temperature and precipitation. A Biome is a biological community based on similar vegetation spread out over a region that can encompass a limited geographic area or an entire planet.
A biome is an area classified according to the species that live in that location. Temperature range, soil type, and the amount of light and water are unique to a particular place and form the niches for specific species allowing scientists to define the biome.
Climate change can alter where species live, how they interact, and the timing of biological events, which could fundamentally transform current ecosystems and food webs. Climate change can overwhelm the capacity of ecosystems to mitigate extreme events and disturbance, such as wildfires, floods, and drought.
Factors that Influence Climate
Elevation or Altitude effect climate. Normally, climatic conditions become colder as altitude increases. …
Prevailing global wind patterns. …
Topography. …
Effects of Geography. …
Surface of the Earth. …
Climate change over time.
Since climate determines the type of vegetation that grows in an area, vegetation is used as an indicator of climate type. A climate type and its plants and animals make up a biome. The organisms of a biome share certain characteristics around the world, because their environment has similar advantages and challenges.
IT IS AMAZING: You asked: Is sugar paper wrapping paper recyclable?
Terrestrial biomes on Earth are each distinguished by characteristic temperatures and amount of precipitation. … Temperature and precipitation, and variations in both, are key abiotic factors that shape the composition of animal and plant communities in terrestrial biomes.
There are variety of factors which influence the biomass of the earth, they are latitude, elevation, altitude which influencing the location and the variety of places.
Weather refers to short term atmospheric conditions while climate is the weather of a specific region averaged over a long period of time. Climate change refers to long-term changes.
A biome is a climate zone and the plants and animals that live in it. The Koppen classification system divides climates into five major types and many subtypes based on temperature and humidity characteristics. A microclimate has different climate conditions from the surrounding regions.
The same biome can occur in different geographic locations with similar climates. Temperature and precipitation, and variations in both, are key abiotic factors that shape the composition of animal and plant communities in terrestrial biomes.
Temperature and moisture are the two climatic factors that most affect terrestrial biomes.

121.6 Million US Dollars for Powerball Jackpot Winners
A couple from Pennsylvania who wanted to remain anonymous have won the incredible sum of .6 million dollars. They typed all the numbers correctly when they bought the ticket for the draw on 17.12.2016. As usual for them, they went to the "Selbyville Goose Creek" in Delaware (28452 DuPont Boulevard), where they bought the ticket.
The man trusted the same numbers forever and that trust ultimately paid off. Since 1975, he has regularly played the Powerball and MegaMillions lotteries.
When I scanned my ticket into the machine, tears came. "I've never seen so many zeros in my life! Once reality set in, my first reaction was crying. I left the store in tears and returned to my wife who was waiting for me in the car.
This was the version the lucky man announced and his wife confirmed:
"He came to the car and had tears on his face," said the woman. "At first I didn't know what to think, but then he said anxiously: "We are millionaires! I was so confused that I didn't believe him and thought he was joking, so I had him check the numbers on his cell phone and we had the same results.
The couple opted for the one-time payout and were presented with $72.1 million. With this win, they already had plans for how they would use the money in the future. "It's just such a great experience and we don't want to spend the money stupidly," the woman said. She continued: "I have a strong sense of education and would like to donate to schools or other charities in the future. We also had a mobile home in our sights. Since we travel a lot, it would be perfect for our family."
The two could not believe their happiness and described what a great feeling it is to be allowed to experience something like this.
"The victory will not change me," said the woman. "I told him that I didn't want us to be different because of the money. We are very blessed to win." - So the words of the woman
On 13.01.2017 the two of them received their prize at the Delaware Lottery headquarters in Dover.

AT&T Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge Nougat Update Months Away
By H. Parvez on Jan 22, 2017 - News
Months after the official release of Android 7.0 Nougat by Google, it took Samsung until the second week of January to replicate it for the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge. However, the wait for AT&T Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge Nougat update is not over just yet. Since the Nougat update for the flagship devices has only been unveiled in regions where the Galaxy Beta Program was rolled out. Hence, even the unlocked Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge devices worldwide are not yet eligible for the update. While there is no news on when the Nougat update will be available across all regions, the AT&T Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge Nougat update are expected in the beginning of spring. A senior AT&T official has reported that the update is already in the beta testing phase and can be expected by March or April. Nonetheless, we cannot put a guarantee stamp on the report, as the carrier can choose to release the update sooner or later than it has proposed. While you wait for AT&T Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge Nougat update to roll out through the official channel, keep an eye on the Updato Samsung Firmware Platform as well.

Kraków 2022 place main square at heart of bid logo, launches site
[contextly_auto_sidebar id="u7vKFJT3UtOo5mcm0fzD4ZhjiDVnzAOP"]
The main square of Kraków has been drawn at the heart of the Polish city's newly revealed bid logo for the 2022 Winter Olympics and Paralympics.
Rynek Główny – which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site – is surrounded in the logo by a historic decorative design called Parzenica.
The design is well-known in the mountain regions of Małopolska.
The logo's colours are also significant – with blue the visual identification of Kraków, and yellow the colour of the region of Małopolska.
"It is a simple sign that, on the one hand, symbolises our history and our uniqueness, but on the other is also very universal", said Magdalena Sroka, Deputy Mayor of Kraków.
Rynek Główny has been Kraków's social, commercial and cultural hub for more than eight centuries, and is the largest medieval town square in Europe.
It will host the medals ceremonies at the Games if the bid is successful.
The design is intended to show the logo is wrapped around the square, as the Tatra Mountains on the border with Slovakia embrace Kraków.
"If the IOC (International Olympic Committee) grants us the opportunity to host the 2022 Olympic Winter and Paralympic Games our square will serve the same purpose – it will be a place to welcome the world to celebrate the unique spirit of the Games," said Jagna Marczułajtis-Walczak, President of Kraków 2022 Bid Committee and a three-time Olympian.
"Also, every night it will host the Medals Ceremonies thus offering an opportunity for joint celebration for the people of Kraków and spectators from all over the world."
On Thursday (March 13), an all-female delegation arrived in Lausanne to deliver the Kraków 2022 Applicant File to the IOC ahead of the deadline the following day.
Earlier this month, insidethegames was told the hosting of Alpine events in Slovakia as part of the Kraków 2022 bid would help develop facilities and infrastructure in the neighbouring country and could boost its ski tourism industry.
Four other cities are bidding to host the 2022 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games: Lviv in Ukraine; Beijjing in China, Almaty in Kazakhstan and Oslo in Norway.
Kraków 2022 has also yesterday launched its bid website www.krakow2022.org.

Poll: Forget progressives, more Democrats identify now as liberals
Gallup is very excited to disclose in their latest polling that Democrats identifying as liberals has reached an all-time high.
Only 25% of Democrats in 1994 were confident enough to publicly state they sided with radical liberals in their party on key issues.
By 2022, that number more than doubled to 54% of Democrats who describe themselves as liberal or very liberal.
It's hard to take seriously a poll on political ideology that fails to consider current political ideology.
For example, Democrats have all but abandoned liberalism and the term itself, and instead embrace the "progressive" movement to advance their backwards beliefs.
Liberals, for example, fought against segregation and racism. Progressives are working to segregate the races once more and discriminate against Americans based on the color of their skin.
Liberals were huge supporters of free speech, while progressives hate freedom, and only support government-approved speech.
This poll should depress the Hell out of Democrats and old school liberals.
The Gallup poll included 11,000 interviews — 2,943 Democrats, 3,296 Republicans and 4,307 independents, and asked which of five categories best described their political views.
The results: 9% of U.S. adults call themselves very conservative, 27% conservative, 35% moderate, 18% liberal and 8% very liberal.
Not much there really to celebrate for liberals or very liberals. The fact Gallup doesn't even recognize the progressive movement to be significant enough to include, also seems very telling.


The light slowly returns to the Protector's eyes. He looks around him. In niches, silhouettes of his body guard assassins are hazily visible against broken stained glass windows glowing in the morning sun.
"So they saved me again", he thinks before a sting of pain shoots through his leg. "I am sorry, Protector", a soft voice whispers, "I am almost done. Bite down on this".
A metal object is put between his teeth as the cuts go deeper still into his thigh. After yet another hour of cuts and stitches, the surgery is complete. Jacobus tries to sit, but falls back onto the makeshift pillow, a rolled-up red robe brandishing an emblazoned fleur-de-lis, stained with black and red blood. The surgeon rises to her feet, and the Protector can see her covered face and white robes.
"Thank you, my Sister Hospitaller". The voice is distant, but familiar, speaking now with the dignified melody of the sanctified, echoing through the ruined Sanctum. And Jacobus gets up to one elbow, squinting across the room and he can see the Celestinian Obelisk towering in the morning sun.
"Henrietta", he says, "how did you get here?"
She walks toward him, flanked by her Celestian retinue. "That's Canoness Henrietta now", she says solemnly. "You are lucky to be breathing still, Protector. You will live to fight another day, thanks to your Conclave", she continues, pointing to the niches.
"The Order has granted me the opportunity to take over operations on Thygius IV for the time being. But we will need you to become stronger fast, Protector. The greenskins still plague these lands. Your assassins drove their boss away, badly injured, but he too will most likely be on the mend. More Sisters are heading here as we speak". She closes her robes around her, but bends down by his ageing face and strokes his forehead. "We will fight together once more. At least". She smiles for a brief moment. "Get well. Fast". She rises again and turns her back, her red robes tightly around her body. "Rest now".
"What about the Ordo Xenos", Jacobus asks, "are they still here?"
Canoness Henrietta looks back at him and then nods before she kneels by the Obelisk, placing her worn bolter by its base.
"Yes, I am here", a coarse voice says from a darkened corner, "and soon the three of us will speak and take counsel . But now you will rest".
Then all is silent as the sun rises over Thygius Prime.


The stress of single-handedly combating evil syndicated world systems that plot dastardly designs against volunteer firefighters was taking its toll, and it was time for a furlough from the front lines of activism and politicking.
Actually, it was Erinn and my 17th anniversary, so we left the kids with their grandparents and drove to Rossport, which is hidden away off Highway 17, and draped across the rocky shore of Lake Superior.
I was about 10 years old the first time I saw Lake Superior. I remember gluing my face to the window of our VW van during the trip from Sault Ste Marie to Thunder Bay, and only peeling it away on the stretches where the lake was out of view. The largest and most unspoiled of the Great Lakes has never lost its magic, and kayaking was a good way to enjoy the the emotion of the scenery even more. Photography is like trying to catch the breeze in a bottle, but here are some attempts.
If you ever travel the north shore of Lake Superior and have time for a one-kilometre side trip, stop in Rossport. For a tiny hamlet with a handful of people, it has more than its fair share of attractions. It features an exotic gift shop, a potter who wood fires his own pieces on site, a fabulous restaurant, an outfitter to fix you up with a kayak or canoe, and several Bed and Breakfasts, most of which have splendid views of the lake. We stayed at the Willows B&B, in a room fit for royalty at a price attainable to even a two-bit fire chief from the peripheral edge of the universe. If you miss Rossport, you miss one of the best getaways in the world.
Enough dreamy reminiscences about anniversary getaways. Actually, it wasn't enough. A week would have been better than two days, but somebody has to keep the evil anti-volunteer syndicates in line.

UZI Collections was founded in July 2015 by Rwandans, Nathalie and Laurene, as a result of their passion and love for fashion. Their main focus is to create a brand of impact that empowers young people and to increase the economy of Rwanda through the fashion industry.
UZI Collections has become an established name in the Rwandan fashion industry. For instance, UZI is part of Collective Rwanda, a fashion platform with six other established brands who work in collaboration with experts to support and promote Rwanda's dynamic fashion sector. In addition, UZI have partnered with a boutique called Bold Africa. Bold Africa includes a collection of African designers, with stores in both Kigali and Kampala. UZI is also available on online platforms such as Ronkos and Made in Rwanda. These platforms distribute products across the USA and Canada, and soon in Europe. UZI also have their own retail store for male and female wear located in Kigali-Rwanda.
Culture Driven
Raw materials are an essential part of product quality. Productions is carried out at UZI's main site in Kicukiro. A network of external suppliers both from Rwanda and Tanzania, work in partnership with UZI. UZI use batik fabric. Batik is a technique of wax-resist dyeing applied to whole cloth. The batik highlights the unique spirit expressed by UZI products.
UZI specialise in men's shirts, as well as women's shirts, skirts and dresses
Rwema Umutoni Laurene
has dreamt of creating her own fashion brand from an early age. In 2013, Laurene started a part-time job. However, a year later she realised that there was an opportunity in the fashion industry in Rwanda. It is a relatively new market, with a huge potential for growth, with limited competition. From this, Laurene connected with Nathalie.
Remera Mukahigiro Nathalie
has wanted to start her own business since a young age. Nathalie started as a sales assistant, before joining forces with Laurene to become Sales and Marketing Director at UZI Collections. Nathalie is now also in pursuit of a bachelor degree in Marketing. This will enable her to continue the development of UZI Collections.

and un-gushing to the point of being - well, there's only one word for it - low-key. As a result he allows other people's narratives to flow rather than making himself the centrepiece of conversation. So Frances, her chest wheezy from asthma, told us how for years she cared for her husband Jimmy after he was injured when the local dye works blew up in the 1960s and "13 tattoos were burned off his arms". Like so many, she has found space in widowhood and advancing age to make a life for herself, dancing at the Swally Pally pensioners' club four times a week. And it was there that Loki discovered a vim and vigour probably unmatched anywhere else in the city. One veteran told him he liked "the repartee of the place" while a vintage doll, recalling her early beaux, insisted that: "All the talent used to come from Shettleston, but it's gone downhill since then."
Yet that shocking health statistic was never far away. These valiant oldies saw its evidence daily in the ashen faces of vacant youths whose centre of the universe was the methadone queue. And here was the bleak difference between the past and now: hard lives have always been Shettleston's lot, but those of the pensioners were not without joy.
Humphrys In Search Of God (Radio 4, Tuesday) ended this week not with a blinding flash of conversion for broadcaster John, but with illuminating insights none the less. "Faith is a refusal to give up, " said his final guest, Chief Rabbi Jonathan Sacks. He could have been describing the Humphrys belief in sceptical interviewing. Or, indeed, Shettleston.

OSMTracker
==============

**Cet article concerne le traqueur OSM pour Android - il existe un produit similaire pour Windows Mobile**.
OSMTracker permet la création d'une trace gpx d'un voyage, avec la collecte de "waypoints" le long de l'itinéraire. Des enregistrements vocaux, des photographies et d'autres notes peuvent également être enregistrés, et tous seront géolocalisés.

Démarrage rapide
-----------

![OSMTracker_1][]

1. Cliquez sur la croix pour créer une nouvelle piste.
2. L'écran change pour afficher les boutons - attendez qu'ils ne soient plus grisés, ce qui indique que le GPS a une position.
3. Parcourez votre itinéraire en appuyant sur les boutons appropriés lorsque vous vous trouvez exactement au niveau de l'élément à cartographier. Vous pouvez également créer des enregistrements vocaux, prendre des photos et des notes à l'aide des boutons.
4. Lorsque vous avez terminé, appuyez sur l'icône de la disquette pour sauvegarder votre trace et vos waypoints.
5. Pour convertir la piste en fichier gpx, appuyez et maintenez-la dans la liste, puis sélectionnez l'option appropriée.
6. Transférez les traces, les photos et les enregistrements sur votre ordinateur et lisez-les pour mettre à jour OSM.

Installer OSMTracker
-------------------------

Installez OSMTracker depuis le site [F-Droid] (https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.osmtracker/).
![OSMTracker Logo][]

Configuration de l'OSMTracker
------------------------

Démarrez OSMTracker et appuyez sur l'icône de menu de votre appareil Android, puis sélectionnez **Paramètres**.

- **Durée de l'enregistrement vocal** - à votre choix, mais l'auteur utilise 30 secondes.
- **Activer le son** - il est recommandé de cocher cette case - émet un bip pour vous avertir du début et de la fin de l'enregistrement vocal.
- **Réinitialiser l'authentification**. Ce bouton sera "grisé" jusqu'à ce que vous ayez téléchargé un fichier .gpx et autorisé OSMTracker à télécharger des traces sur votre compte OpenStreetMap.
- Paramètres GPS** Méthodes utilisées par votre appareil Android pour déterminer l'emplacement. Il est recommandé de régler cette option sur **Haute précision**. L'appareil utilisera alors le GPS, le Wi-Fi et les réseaux mobiles pour estimer l'emplacement.
- Vérifiez le GPS au démarrage** Lorsque vous démarrez OSMTracker, si le GPS a été désactivé, le programme vous invite à le réactiver.
- **Ignorer l'horloge GPS** Si cette case est cochée, l'horloge interne de l'appareil sera utilisée au lieu de l'heure fournie par le signal GPS.
- **Intervalle d'enregistrement GPS** Choisissez la période entre l'enregistrement de la position - pour une meilleure précision, sélectionnez 0 ou 1, chacune de ces valeurs entraînant un enregistrement chaque seconde.

> La fréquence affecte l'utilisation de la batterie, mais lorsque vous utilisez cette application, votre écran est susceptible d'être allumé la plupart du temps, le GPS fonctionne, et vous pouvez prendre des photos et des enregistrements aussi - tous ces éléments entraîneront une forte consommation de la batterie et il est recommandé pour une utilisation prolongée d'utiliser l'appareil avec la puissance augmentée.

- **Répertoire de stockage externe (SD)** La valeur par défaut est /osmtracker

> La plupart des appareils Android récents ne permettent pas l'enregistrement de données sur une carte microSD ou SD externe. Bien que l'on parle de "stockage externe", les pistes, etc. seront en fait enregistrées dans **/storage/emulated/0/osmtracker.**.

- **Un répertoire par piste** Recommandé car ainsi tous les enregistrements vocaux, les photographies, les notes de texte et la trace gpx seront stockés dans le même dossier, nommé avec la date et l'heure de création du fichier gpx.
- **Nom de fichier pour les pistes nommées** Options parmi lesquelles vous pouvez choisir si vous avez une préférence pour le nom des fichiers.
- **Précision dans le fichier GPX** Recommandé - le nom du point de repère comprendra un chiffre approximatif de la plage d'erreur possible en mètres. Par exemple *Piste à pied (4.0m)*. Cette information peut s'avérer extrêmement utile plus tard lors de la mise à jour d'OSM, et pour décider s'il faut déplacer un élément existant pour l'aligner sur la nouvelle trace et les nouveaux points de repère.
- **Utiliser l'approximation HDOP** Concerne les calculs supplémentaires visant à améliorer la précision de la position (dilution horizontale de la précision).
- **Exportation de l'orientation de la boussole** Définit si et comment les données de la boussole doivent être exportées vers le fichier GPX.
- Source de photos par défaut** Généralement, vous prenez des photos avec l'appareil photo via cette application, mais vous pouvez choisir d'utiliser des photos déjà présentes sur le téléphone.
- Écran toujours allumé** Sélectionnez cette option si vous êtes constamment en train de cliquer sur des boutons, de prendre des photos ou de faire des enregistrements vocaux. Si ce n'est pas le cas, laissez cette option vide pour que vous deviez allumer l'écran à chaque fois, ce qui consomme moins de batterie.
- **Thème graphique de l'écran principal** Options permettant de modifier le contraste et la luminosité de l'écran si vous avez des difficultés à visualiser les boutons.
- Vous pouvez concevoir et installer votre propre ensemble de boutons et choisir de les afficher en utilisant cette option. Pour une description complète de cette fonction, [voir ci-dessous](/fr/mobile-mapping/osmtracker/#button-presets).
- **Carte d'arrière-plan** En appuyant et en maintenant la pression sur une piste enregistrée, si cette fonction est sélectionnée, vous pouvez afficher la piste et l'application téléchargera les données OpenStreetMap en arrière-plan.

> Cette fonction nécessite une connexion de données pour télécharger la carte. Vous n'avez pas besoin d'utiliser cette fonction, sauf si vous le souhaitez.

- **Fournisseur de tuiles de carte** Si vous avez choisi de télécharger des données cartographiques comme arrière-plan lorsque vous affichez la carte, vous pouvez choisir la version de la carte à utiliser comme arrière-plan.
- **Orientation** Voulez-vous que l'écran pivote, ou l'utiliser en mode paysage ou portrait ?

La liste des pistes
--------------

![OSMTracker_2][]
Après avoir effectué votre enquête initiale, en cliquant sur des boutons, en créant des enregistrements vocaux et en prenant des photos, lorsque vous avez terminé, cliquez sur l'icône de la disquette pour terminer votre piste. Maintenant, appuyez et maintenez la piste dans la liste & les options deviennent disponibles :

- **Resume Tracking** utile lorsque vous vous rendez compte que vous avez manqué quelque chose !
- **Affichage** affichera la piste, éventuellement avec un fond de carte en fonction de votre connexion de données et de l'option que vous avez sélectionnée dans **Fond de carte**.
- **Exportation au format GPX** - nécessaire pour que la trace et les waypoints puissent être utilisés dans un programme d'édition.
- **Transférer vers OpenStreetMap** Utilisez cette option pour télécharger votre trace vers OpenStreetMap - vous devrez avoir un compte OpenStreetMap ([Comment l'obtenir expliqué ici](/fr/beginner/start-osm/)), et devrez autoriser cette application à télécharger les traces vers votre compte. Voir [Traces GPS - fichiers gpx ci-dessous](/fr/mobile-mapping/osmtracker/#gps-traces--gpx-files) pour plus d'informations sur la raison pour laquelle ces traces sont si importantes pour OpenStreetMap.

> Vous n'avez téléchargé que la trace de base et non les waypoints, les photos, etc. Conservez tout jusqu'à ce que vous le transfériez sur un ordinateur pour le modifier.

- **Suppression**. Une explication facile.

Préréglages des boutons
--------------

Si vous effectuez des relevés pour une raison particulière et que l'étiquette de point de repère dont vous avez besoin n'est pas disponible, vous pouvez créer votre propre ensemble de boutons prédéfinis avant votre sortie, les charger dans le téléphone et les sélectionner pendant vos relevés lorsque vous en avez besoin - plusieurs peuvent être chargés dans le téléphone et vous pouvez passer de l'un à l'autre sans arrêter votre enregistrement. Comme l'étiquette que vous créez se présente sous la forme d'une note personnelle, elle n'a pas besoin de se conformer aux balises utilisées dans OpenStreetMap et ne sera pas téléchargée vers celui-ci. Par exemple, vous pouvez choisir d'étiqueter des boutons ;

- 1 famille,
- 2 familles,
- 3 familles,
- 4 familles,
- la maison des chefs,
- 20% endommagé,
- 40% endommagé,
- 60% endommagé,
- 80% endommagé,
- détruit,
- ne convient pas aux camions,
- 4 roues motrices nécessaires,
- etc..

Pour une description complète de la création d'un bouton prédéfini, consultez la [section wiki OSMTracker](https://github.com/nguillaumin/osmtracker-android/wiki/Custom-buttons-layouts). Il s'agit d'un [exemple de fichier à télécharger](/files/R_of_Way.xml).

![OSMTracker button presets][]

Enregistrements vocaux, tailles des photos et des images de texte
-----------------------------------------------

![OSMTracker recorded file sizes][]

Si le transfert de fichiers à un stade ultérieur pose problème, faites attention à la taille des fichiers concernés - comme le montre la capture d'écran, les photographies sont très gourmandes en mémoire par rapport au fichier gpx ou à un enregistrement vocal de 10 secondes.

Traces GPS - fichiers gpx
----------------------

![OSMTracker JOSM][]

Les traces GPS sous forme de fichiers gpx sont constituées d'un certain nombre d'éléments, principalement une 'trace' et des 'waypoints'. La capture d'écran ci-dessus montre le contenu d'un dossier créé dans OSMTracker qui a été chargé dans JOSM, prêt à être édité, avec des images satellites chargées pour aider. L'icône carrée au centre de la trace indique qu'une photographie, prise à cet endroit, est disponible - il suffit de cliquer sur l'icône carrée pour afficher la photographie.

Si vous naviguez et utilisez un GPS pour vous donner des indications, vous remarquerez à un moment donné qu'il "recalcule". Il y a une marge d'erreur, mais il est facile de créer des routes et des chemins au mauvais endroit, ou de déplacer la route après la création des données cartographiques.
Les bénévoles qui mettent à jour OpenStreetMap peuvent télécharger toutes les traces qui ont été téléchargées dans une zone, et les utiliser pour.. :

1. Tracer des routes et des chemins à travers des zones qui ne pouvaient pas être vues avec l'imagerie satellite à cause des nuages, des arbres, des ombres, des bâtiments, etc.
2. Ajustez l'imagerie satellite pour qu'elle s'aligne correctement - il peut y avoir une variation surprenante avec certaines imageries.

Bien qu'une seule trace gpx soit très utile, elle n'est pas toujours très précise et peut être décalée de 30 mètres. Lorsqu'il y a plusieurs traces, l'itinéraire correct du chemin ou de la route est alors facile à voir - par exemple, voir la capture d'écran ci-dessous montrant un téléchargement de traces gpx dans une ville, dans laquelle les routes principales peuvent être vues par le volume des traces.

The Beach House Review: Sunny Summer Scares
by Deirdre Crimmins | July 7, 2020, 9:00 am
The Beach House is smart. It has smart characters, a smart "monster," and a smart main character. It assumes its audience is smart and never talks down to them. But best of all, it is effective, terrifying and unpredictable, and downright perfectly gross.
The Beach House starts out like so many horror films, in a car on the way to a remote house. Emily and Randall (Liana Liberato and Noah Le Gros) are in their early 20s, heading to his father's beach house for a weekend away. They aren't quite college sweethearts as Randall has dropped out, though Emily is planning to continue on to grad school in the fall. This is causing tension between the two, as Randall vocally disapproves. Very soon, that is not the only thing causing tension in the house.
Mitch and Jane (Jake Weber and Maryann Nagel) are friends of Randall's father, and they pop in to use the house for the weekend too. This might have been chalked up to a communication error, but it does not seem that Randall bothered to ask for the house in the first place. There is a small sliver of familiarity there, but both couples are amenable to playing house together for a few days and they start getting to know each other. Mitch and Jane are clearly intrigued by Emily's interest in studying astrobiology (and who wouldn't be?) and far less charmed by Randall's attempt at high-brow rebellion by rejecting college. The two couples make their way through all the wine in the house before moving on to the edibles, but then things start to go eerie outside.
This is the moment where The Beach House begins to show its horror literacy and fluency. A less aware film might not be as gifted in toying with audience expectations and then subverting them, but The Beach House knows exactly what it is doing here. The way the source of the real horror in the film unfolds whips us quickly from beauty to horror, and shows us that there is quite a fine line between the two. The wonder of nature, and the unnatural, can still be seen even when it is deadly and torturous.
In addition to this graceful shift, The Beach House also sets us up well for our characters to go through the same journey that we are going through. Much like Resolution and The Strangers, there is organic tension in the situation, before the creepy bits even emerge. Not only is there good reason for them to all be there, but there is also good reason for there to be some astriction in the air. We empathize with them all at that moment and like them well enough to see them as actual people, and not faceless fleshy victims.
Let's be clear, we like Emily the best. She is a horror heroine that is smart and makes all of the best possible decisions (besides dating Randall). She is an interesting person who thinks very quickly on her feet, especially faced with life or death decisions. She is also not an inhuman superwoman, like Furiosa in Fury Road or the Dora Milaje in Black Panther (though they are incredible). She is not perfect, and that makes her predicament that much more relatable and frighteningly possible.
Though we do care about the two couples at the house, don't take this as a signal that The Beach House is slow or emotional. No siree. This film takes its time to let you get to know the characters so that you care a bit if they survive or not, but once it starts moving it plows unflinchingly in body horror at a thrilling speed. The effects are drenched in blood and viscera and you feel every single injury that any of them endure. There is no slow burn, this is a wildfire.
The Beach House cuts sharply and swiftly, but it does so with grace and intelligence.It will leave you wishing that it was the standard in horror experiences, and not the brilliant exception.

'A Little Rebellion Is a Good Thing' Book Review
By Annie Tobey | November 9th, 2020
Targeting the milieu of 1969
Any novel set in the U.S. in 1969 holds great promise for baby boomer readers. A Little Rebellion Is a Good Thing: Troubles at Traymore, set at a women's college in Southwest Virginia in the 1969-70 school year, holds such promise. It highlights the era's spirit of rebellion and the exercise of freedom of speech and protest, especially for women. Author Duncan L. Clarke was inspired by his personal experience at Radford College (now a university) in Southwest Virginia. For some readers, the promise may fall flat; but some readers may find enjoyment where others see weakness.
After completing his PhD dissertation at the University of Virginia, David Pritchard is hired at Traymore College, an all-women's college in Southwest Virginia. His desperation for a job and evasive interview answers to the Traymore president, Elzic Barton, land him in a hornet's nest.
Barton and his minions actively curtail basic academic freedoms for the students and harass the professors. Given his law education, Pritchard soon becomes enmeshed in the students' grievances against a plethora of violations of their rights. The new professor becomes a willing advocate in their fight.
Of course, Barton fights back. The push back from the college president and his lackeys contributes the main conflict in the novel. Although one of the Barton minions, Dean Evelyn Baird, becomes an advocate in Pritchard's fight, the others are shallow caricatures of lackeys who don't agree with the boss but are afraid to stand up to him.
Adding to the drama is the hired henchman, a classless ex-con whom Barton hires to go after Pritchard. And, predictably, the professor's beloved German shepherd, Xena, becomes a collateral target.
Secondary drama and conflict come from Pritchard's unrestrained young male libido. This represents the book's most obvious weakness. The professor ends up in sexual liaisons with a member of Traymore staff and, more significantly, several of the students.
Besides the ethical issues of intimacy with students (though they weren't enrolled in his classes), the relationships could easily have compromised his battle against the president's harsh regulations. The young women are the sexual initiators – very flirtatious and assertive. Pritchard is only mildly careful with these trysts – but he never faces significant consequences.

When he meets one of these young women, she is married. She soon begins divorce proceedings against her abusive husband, but she and Pritchard become involved despite the potential legal implications for her divorce. He begins to develop a stronger bond with her but continues to satisfy his whims with other women. When she eventually discovers one of many infidelities, she easily forgives him.
Is A Little Rebellion Is a Good Thing for You?
Although the book isn't a hot and steamy romance with graphic detail, if you're looking for a book with relationships and romantic interludes, this might be a book for you.
If you appreciate a book with strong female characters, this might be a book for you. Besides the somewhat narcissistic male protagonist and evil President Barton, the other main characters in A Little Rebellion Is a Good Thing are strong, admirable women. The minor male characters range from evil to well-meaning.
If you enjoy recognizing landmarks in a story and you're familiar with Southwest Virginia, this might be a book for you.
A Little Rebellion Is a Good Thing contains some allusions to 1969 culture, including a few songs and some discussion on U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War (albeit mostly from one point of view).
Overall, the author's writing style is clean and easy to follow, making the book an easy read. The ending feels predictable, but suspense lies in what obstacles the tyrannical president will throw in the way. And if you're content for a pleasurable book with a little nostalgia, this might be a book for you.

Fears and Choices: Is it worth the risk?
My last post dealt with working out and getting fit for the military and I think it's only natural to share my fears about the process of joining and making it through Officer Candidate School. It's only natural, because one of my fears is that I will physically fail. I will somehow not meet the standards; I'll not be able to do enough push-ups or sit-ups in the allotted time or I won't be able to run a fast enough pace. This worry is what keeps me working hard and physically pushing myself. If I decide I shouldn't worry about this then I'll get complacent and then I'm really setting myself up for disaster. So, on this fear, I think it's better to worry about it because it makes me keep hitting the gym and doing all I can to be in good physical shape.
Of course, there are many other fears that run through my mind as I think about joining the Army. I think first and foremost that there is a huge fear of death. It's only natural, I think, to fear death and in the case of being in the military, if I do die serving my country, it will probably be in war or in some sort of conflict. It's a scary thing to think about; being shot to death, being exploded, dying from injuries sustained in battle (chemical warfare or just plain ol' bullets will do the trick), dying in a POW camp or being kidnapped and murdered. It is something that everyone must think of and consider when joining the military. One is making the ultimate sacrifice of one's own life for the better of their country.
But I think that some deaths are in vain. The soldiers that died at the hands of their own (at Fort Hood or from dying from friendly fire in combat) probably didn't think that was how it was going to go down. Is that the ultimate sacrifice? Dying by someone who later says, "oops, we shot that guy." It makes me afraid of my own (well, soon-to-be-my-own) knowing that people who have committed crimes can be given a waiver and then promptly given a gun. Someone I know said that soldiers "are trained to be killing machines." Do I trust the 18-year-old killing machine with a GED and a history of drug and alcohol related crimes? No.
And I am also afraid of my soon-to-be-own in light of the allegations that there is a culture of sexual abuse in the military (click here, and here for two takes on the same story). I hurt for those women who claim they were victims of sexual crimes at the hands of their own. If these stories are indeed true, I must consider doing all of this work and having all of these worries, only to have it taken away by a fellow soldier. There is no doubt that I would leave the military if I was raped by a fellow officer. But in true officer fashion I wouldn't just leave. I'd fight back and lead the way against prosecuting my attackers.
Other major fears include not getting in to OCS, getting hurt and being recycled, getting hurt and getting sent to Advanced Individual Training (enlisted), or making it all the way through everything, uprooting my family, moving across the country and then hating my job. Volunteerism runs deep in my blood but ultimately if I don't feel like I'm doing a good thing and contributing to something bigger than myself or if I find a corrupt, abusive military establishment I fear that I would have to leave. After all my fears and hard work I would ultimately have to leave.
The fact that I'm considering these things is good. It reminds me that there are risks and rewards no matter if I work in the private sector or the public sector. Yes, these fears are very grim, but it's important to be realistic about what I'm getting into. I feel powerful in contemplating my future. I feel powerful in knowing myself. Above all I feel powerful knowing that I can make the choice. And ultimately it's my choice.


Nice! The bits I listened to remind me of Johnny Cash. Do you think it would be ok for me to review it in the Baptist?
Sweet! Well I'll do it for my next lot which will be in the Baptist which comes out in a month or so.

AQP4 (aquaporin 4) is an intrinsic protein, and belongs to the family of aquaporin water channels, which consists of thirteen members. This gene is localized to human chromosome 18 q11-q12, and has four exons and three introns. The encoded protein has five loops, intervened by six transmembrane domains. Loops A, C and E face the extraplasmic region, and loops B and D are present in the cytoplasmic region. It is expressed in peripheral organs such as, lung, stomach and kidney. It is the predominant water channel expressed in central nervous system. It is expressed by astrocytes, and localizes preferentially to end-foot processes of astrocytes. It is present as two alternatively spliced forms- long one called M1 and the short one named M23.
Aquaporin-4 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org)and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.
The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.
AQP4 (aquaporin 4) is the major water transporter in brain, and is thought to be responsible for maintaining the water homeostasis in brain. Therefore, AQP4 might play a key role in the pathogenesis of brain edema. Studies show that this transporter is overexpressed in cerebral ischemia. Thus, it might have potential as a therapeutic target for ischemic brain edema. Polymorphisms in this gene are associated with response to brain injury, and the clinical outcome in patients with traumatic brain injury. The short isoform (M23) of AQP4 facilitates the formation of orthogonal array of particles (OAPs), and the size of OAP is determined by the ratio of short (M23): long (M1) isoforms. These OAPs are known to interact with the pathogenic auto-antibodies generated in neuromyelitis optica (NMO). Thus, further studies on this protein might provide insights into the pathogenesis and treatment of NMO.
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
Corresponding Antigen APREST73067.
Solution in phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.2, containing 40% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide

Некоммерческое партнерство содействия сохранению и валоризации культурных, рекреационных и природных потенциалов села «Ассоциация самых красивых деревень» (АСКДР), также известное как ассоциация «Самые красивые деревни России» и ассоциация «Самые красивые деревни и городки России» — организация, объединяющая малые населённые пункты, выполнившие ряд критериев, в том числе относительно ухоженности и историчности архитектуры.

АСКДР была создана в 2014 году под патронажем ассоциации «Самые красивые деревни Франции», старейшей из международной федерации «Самые красивые деревни мира» (куда АСКДР теперь входит в качестве наблюдателя). Членство в таких ассоциациях привлекательно для поселений из-за туристического потенциала, возникающего после обретения статуса. В ассоциацию принимаются малые населённые пункты после их оценки в баллах по различным критериям, в том числе эстетическим, градостроительным, архитектурным, историческим, экологическим и туристско-инфраструктурными. В зависимости от количества полученных баллов поселение ассоциации может получить рейтинг вплоть до трёх звезд. Каждые 5 лет поселение должно получать подтверждение своего статуса. АСКДР периодически отправляет экспедиции для отбора претендентов в ассоциацию.

Первым членом ассоциации в 2015 году стало село Вятское Ярославской области, к тому моменту облагороженное меценатом Олегом Жаровым. Жители одной из первых деревень ассоциации, Кинермы, через полгода после получения статуса попросили оградить их от чрезмерного количества туристов. К началу 2018 года в АСКДР вошло 5 поселений, затем их стали принимать чаще. После того как в августе 2018 года в АСКДР вошёл первый город, Тотьма, в название бренда добавили слово «городки». В 2020 году Вятское было объявлено штаб-квартирой ассоциации. К началу лета 2021 года ассоциация получила около 2000 заявок на включение, проверило 650 поселений, включила в свой состав 23 из них. С 2021 года АСКДР работает вместе с Ростуризмом, с которым подписала соглашение

My name is Don Ammer, and I just wanted to send an email to thank you so much, in honor of your father, for fostering my huge love of both film and … cinema "monsters" with real heart and soul, I guess you could say. To this day, his work as Frankenstein's monster is breathtaking – the humanity he gave to the creature one of the truly great performances in film. I will never forget it.
Oddly enough, though, the monster wasn't my first intro to your father; I was already dearly in love with the man thanks to his voice-over work in what remains my favorite children's film to this time: Mad Monster Party (I will even admit, I have the DVD and watch it to this day). I was maybe six years old when I saw it, and really loved the old Baron – wanted NONE of the greedy monsters or Francesca to take control over Felix! – and within the next few years after that discovered Frankenstein and The Grinch and even got into trouble staying up too late watching reruns of "Thriller." Your father was a gifted, generally under-rated actor – and I couldn't be happier to know that, from all I have heard, he also seemed like a warm and generous human being, as well. I wrote to him a couple of times as a kid, asking for an autograph and telling him I was a fan, but I'm sure he never even received the letters – so for that reason as well, it's a real honor to be writing to his daughter, expressing my gratitude for a true icon of American cinema and his work..
I hope you won't mind, but would it be possible to ask for an autographed photo of YOU? If you could tell a fan how to best get one? I hope you won't mind my asking.
But either way, again thank you for taking the time to read my email, and on behalf of your father (who, to this day, I think remains one of the most under-rated actors this country's ever had), for the thrills, chills and laughs he's given me for over three decades. Will ALWAYS be a fan of you both.

Q: glob expansion suddenly not working properly in loops I am trying to run:
for i in *; do sudo rm $i; done

The problem is that there is something wrong with glob expansion and I get the error:
rm: cannot remove '*': No such file or directory

I get this error for each time that the loop runs. The files are deleted (even though I used CTRL+C to stop the errors) but I am getting this error that I should not get as I did not escape the glob symbol and I did not use any single quotation marks.
This has always worked in the past without the error.
Also, if I run:
sudo rm 1*

for example, it will run use the glob properly. However, if I run:
for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9; do sudo rm $i*; done

I get the following:
rm: cannot remove '1*': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove '2*': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove '3*': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove '4*': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove '5*': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove '6*': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove '7*': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove '8*': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove '9*': No such file or directory

What is wrong with my globs in loops now?
I am not interested in different methods of deleting the files. I am only interested in what is wrong with glob expansion. Glob expansion seems to work (all the files are deleted) but then it wants to loop again like I escaped the glob character instead of being done.

EDIT:
It seems this is only a problem when there is an excessively large number of files. I ran the command: for i in *; do sudo rm $i; done on the same directory with only 800 files and I could not reproduce the error.
I also tested the command: for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9; do sudo rm $i*; done and I did not get an error when only deleting ~800 files and some numbered dummy files.

A: "too many files to delete in one rm command." - is a problem with a well-known solution - use find and xargs. Together they handle "too many files" as well as "files with funny characters". Read man find and man xargs.
Your particular case, "for i in *; do sudo rm $i; done" would be expressed as
find . -maxdepth 0 -type f -print0 |\
    xargs -0 --no-run-if-empty sudo rm

will run as few sudo rm commands as it can, stuffing as many filenames as it can on a line (see xargs --show-limits </dev/null ).
Or, one could
sudo find . -maxdepth 0 -type f -delete

but tastes vary.

A: If you need sudo to remove anything in this directory, you most certainly don't have read permissions either, which prevents bash from performing the glob expansion – run your loop in a root shell instead:
sudo bash -c 'for i in *; do rm "$i"; done'

Android x86_64 libs missing from aab
Mercutio October 8, 2021, 4:21pm #1
On GooglePlay, it's mandatory to include 64-bit libs for both ARM and x86 architectures now. But try as I might, I cannot generate an .aab that includes x86_64. Nothing on the older threads really settled anything in regards to this.
I include in project.xml
<architecture name="arm64" if="android"/>
…and libs/arm64-v8a shows up fine. But if I also add:
<architecture name="x86_64" if="android"/>
only libs/x86 accompany the two arm versions.
I'm using the latest lime and openfl versions, so I expected this would be settled by now. It's a show stopper, after all. How am I supposed get that darned x86_64 build into that bundle?
Mercutio October 28, 2021, 7:56pm #2
To follow up, if an architecture is included, GooglePlay requires a 64-bit version. I was able to bypass their filter by removing x86 support instead. In project.xml
<architicture exclude="x86" if="android"/>
Seemed to work. But it's not clear if they'll require the x86_64 support along the line, as it's specifically mentioned in:
Support 64-bit architectures | Google Play | Android...
Since Android is an open platform, phone manufacturers could choose an x86_64 architecture and GooglePlay can take the stance that you can't just leave those devices out in the rain…
pozirk October 10, 2021, 3:51am #3
We have already discussed it here: Does openfl support 64-bit devices on Android?
Mercutio October 12, 2021, 3:01am #4
Without a clear resolution. It'd be cool if the OpenFL Android documentation just listed the required project.xml tags, rather than having to sift through multiple discussions of whether it's the tools, or their versions, or using a 3rd party service. Maybe this thread will help increase the signal from the noise.
Ugh. I've had to unmark my "solution", as it got me past GooglePlay's submission filter, but the app fails to run installing on Android tablets. These tablets (Nexus 5, for example) are running x86_64. I don't even know why GooglePlay would let you install on these, since it knows the bundle is missing the required architecture.
I'm back to where I started: how do you get lime to include x86_64 libs into an android bundle?
andrew911 October 15, 2021, 8:48am #6
Nexus 5 runs arm, not arm64 or x86 or x86_64.
You could unpack bundle and see what's inside
You're right. I'm testing Nexus 5 as a VirtualBox image. In Settings it reports "Build Number android_x86_64" there. But I have to imagine that GooglePlay's automated testing is using a similar method, since it reports crashes on it's suite of three devices. And yet, I am able to download off the PlayStore and run the same bundle on a real phone.
So, once again, in order to publish on Google Play, x86_64 libs are required to be included in the app bundle. The HXCPP toolchain seems to be configured to do this. x86_64 libs are mentioned as an Android target there. But generating a bundle doesn't produce them. Is this a bug, or am I simply missing some undocumented directives somewhere to generate them?
I'm marking the original solution as good, since it gets you past Google's filter and Unity doesn't ship x64 binaries, so presumably this will be sufficient to publish.
