\section{Introduction}

	A quiver Grassmannian $\Gr_e(M)$ is a projective scheme associated with a fixed representation $M$; its points parametrize subrepresentations of $M$ of a given dimension vector $e$. They have been introduced by Schofield in \cite{Schofield:92}. It was already remarked by Schofield that quiver Grassmannians are, in general, neither irreducible, nor reduced; in particular they are not smooth in general. In fact, every projective variety can be obtained as a quiver Grassmannian as was shown independently by Hille \cite{Hille:15}, Huisgen-Zimmermann \cite{Huisgen-Zimmermann:07}, and Reineke \cite{Reineke:13}. This shows that we cannot expect any special properties when studying arbitrary quiver Grassmannians.

	However, quiver Grassmannians associated with rigid representations have gained importance in the theory of cluster algebras due to work of Caldero and Chapoton who show that Euler characteristics of these quiver Grassmannians appear in cluster variables \cite{CC:06}. Hence the positivity conjecture of Fomin--Zelevinsky \cite{FZ:07} translates into positivity of the Euler characteristic of rigid quiver Grassmannians. This conjecture was settled independently by Nakajima \cite{Nakajima:11} and Qin \cite{Qin:12}. Both authors show, using different methods, that the (Betti) cohomology of $\Gr_e(M)$ is concentrated in even degrees provided that $M$ is rigid. This result was generalized in \cite{CEFR:18} where it is shown that the class of the diagonal inside the Chow ring of $\Gr_e(M) \times \Gr_e(M)$ is contained in the image of the exterior product map. Formal consequences of this are that the cohomology of $\Gr_e(M)$ is torsion-free and vanishes in odd degrees and that the cycle map is an isomorphism.

	This might be an indicator for the existence of a cellular decomposition. Indeed there are several classes of examples of rigid quiver Grassmannian which admit a cellular decomposition, such as quiver Grassmannians attached to indecomposable representations of a quiver of finite or affine type \cite{CEFR:18} (special cases of this were shown before in \cite{Cerulli_Irelli:11, CE:11, CFFFR:17, LW:15:1, LW:15:2}). In \cite{RW:18} Rupel and Weist show that quiver Grassmannians of exceptional representations of a generalized Kronecker quiver admit a cellular decomposition. Although this is good evidence that quiver Grassmannians of rigid representations might always possess a cellular decomposition, it is not known, as of now, if they actually do.

	A necessary condition for the existence of a cellular decomposition is rationality.
	The main objective of the present paper is to show
	\begin{thm} \label{t:main}
		Let $M$ be a rigid representation of a quiver $Q$ and let $e \leq \dimvect M$ be a dimension vector. Then $\Gr_e(M)$ is rational.
	\end{thm}
	This narrows down the class of possible counterexamples to the conjectured existence of a cellular decomposition.

	The proof of Theorem \ref{t:main} relies on two (iterated) torus localizations. First, we define a torus action on $\Gr_e(M)$ to reduce to the case of an exceptional representation. This is Lemma \ref{l:red1}. A second torus action reduces rationality of a quiver Grassmannian of an exceptional representation of $Q$ to rationality of an exceptional representation of the universal abelian covering quiver. This is done in Lemma \ref{l:red2}. Applying this construction a finite number of times we arrive at an exceptional, in particular rigid, representation of a tree. This case is solved directly in Lemma \ref{l:treeRational}.

		I would like to thank Giovanni Cerulli Irelli, Francesco Esposito, and Thorsten Weist for helpful discussions on the paper. I am grateful to Markus Reineke for suggesting a simpler proof of Lemma \ref{l:rigid}.
	\end{ack*}

	\section{Generalities on Quiver Grasmmannians}

	Let $Q$ be a quiver, i.e.\ an oriented graph. We denote its set of vertices by $Q_0$ and its set of arrows by $Q_1$. For an arrow $\alpha \in Q_1$ let $s(\alpha)$ and $t(\alpha)$ its starting vertex and terminal vertex, respectively. Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field. Let $M$ be a finite-dimensional representation of $Q$ over $k$. All the representations considered in this article are assumed to be finite-dimensional. For elementary facts on representations of quivers, we refer to \cite[Chap.\ II]{ASS:06}. Recall that a subrepresentation of $M$ is a collection $(U_i)_{i \in Q_0}$ of subspaces $U_i \sub M_i$ which satisfy $M_\alpha(U_{s(\alpha)}) \sub U_{t(\alpha)}$ for every $\alpha \in Q_1$. Fix a sub--dimension vector $e \in \smash{\Z_{\geq 0}^{Q_0}}$ of $d := \dimvect M$, i.e.\ $e_i \leq d_i$ for every $i \in Q_0$. The set
	$$
		\Big\{ (U_i)_i \in \prod_{i \in Q_0} \Gr_{e_i}(M_i) \mid M_\alpha(U_{s(\alpha)}) \sub U_{t(\alpha)} \text{ (all $i \in Q_0$)} \Big\}
	$$
	of all subrepresentations of $M$ is a Zariski-closed subset of (the set of $k$-valued points of) the product $\prod_{i \in Q_0} \Gr_{e_i}(M_i)$ of Grassmannians. There is a natural way to make this closed subset into a scheme. For this let $\UU_j$ be the pull-back along the projection $\prod_i \Gr_{e_i}(M_i) \to \Gr_{e_j}(M_j)$ of the universal rank $e_j$-bundle on $\Gr_{e_j}(M_j)$; it is a subbundle of the trivial bundle with fiber $M_j$. Let $\mathcal{Q}_j$ be the pull-back along the same map of the universal quotient bundle on $\Gr_{e_j}(M_j)$. Let $s_M$ be the global section of the bundle $\bigoplus_{\alpha \in Q_1} \smash{\UU_{s(\alpha)}^\vee} \otimes \mathcal{Q}_{t(\alpha)}$ which, over a (closed) point $(U_i)_i \in \prod_i \Gr_{e_i}(M_i)$, is given by the sum of the linear maps
	$$
		U_i \to M_i \xto{}{M_\alpha} M_j \to M_j/U_j.
	$$
	The set of $k$-valued points of the zero scheme $Z(s_M)$ of this section is precisely the set of subrepresentations $U$ of $M$.

	\begin{defn*}
		The quiver Grassmannian $\Gr_e(M)$ of subrepresentations of $M$ of dimension vector $e$ is defined as the zero scheme $Z(s_M)$.
	\end{defn*}

	A representation $M$ of $Q$ is called rigid if $\Ext^1(M,M) = 0$. For a rigid representation $M$ the quiver Grassmannian $\Gr_e(M)$ is particularly nice:

	\begin{lem}
		If $M$ is a rigid representation then the scheme $\Gr_e(M)$ is a smooth projective variety of dimension $\langle e,d-e \rangle$; in particular it is reduced and irreducible.
	\end{lem}

	In the above lemma, $d$ is the dimension vector of $M$ and $\langle \blank,\blank \rangle$ is the Euler form of the quiver $Q$.

	\begin{proof}
		Irreducibility was shown in \cite[Thm.\ 4.12]{Wolf:09}. In \cite[Cor.\ 2]{CR:08}, smoothness and the dimension formula are proved.
	\end{proof}

	\section{Covering Quivers}

	We introduce covering quivers of a quiver without relations. The main reference for us is Weist's paper \cite{Weist:13}. The definitions of a cover and a universal cover is taken from \cite[App.\ 2]{Zhang:91}.

	\begin{defn*}
		Let $Q$ be a quiver.
		A cover of $Q$ is a pair consisting of a quiver $C$ and a morphism $c = (c_0,c_1): C \to Q$ of quivers which is surjective, both on vertices and on arrows, such that for any $i \in Q_0$ and any $k \in C_0$ with $c_0(k) = i$ the map $c_1$ on arrows induces bijections
		\begin{align*}
			\{ \beta \in C_1 \mid s(\beta) = k \} &\xto{}{1:1} \{\alpha \in Q_1 \mid s(\alpha) = i \} \\
			\{ \beta \in C_1 \mid t(\beta) = k \} &\xto{}{1:1} \{ \alpha \in Q_1 \mid t(\alpha) = i \}.
		\end{align*}
	\end{defn*}

	Let $\bar{Q}$ be the double quiver of $Q$. It has vertices $\bar{Q}_0 = Q_0$ and arrows $\bar{Q}_1 = \{ \alpha^{\epsilon} \mid \alpha \in Q_1,\ \epsilon \in \{\pm 1\}\}$ which are directed as follows:
	\begin{align*}
		s(\alpha^{\epsilon}) &= \begin{cases} s(\alpha) & \text{if } \epsilon = +1 \\ t(\alpha) & \text{if } \epsilon = -1 \end{cases}
		& t(\alpha^{\epsilon}) &= \begin{cases} t(\alpha) & \text{if } \epsilon = +1 \\ s(\alpha) & \text{if } \epsilon = -1 \end{cases}
	\end{align*}
	An unoriented path of $Q$ is by definition a path in $\bar{Q}$. The set of all unoriented paths is denoted $\bar{Q}_*$. For standard notions for paths of quivers we refer to \cite[II.1]{ASS:06}. If an unoriented path of $Q$ is not a lazy path of $\bar{Q}$ then it is completely determined by a non-empty sequence $p = \alpha_r^{\epsilon_r}\ldots\alpha_1^{\epsilon_1}$ such that $s(\alpha_{\nu+1}^{\epsilon_{\nu+1}}) = t(\alpha_\nu^{\epsilon_\nu})$ for every $\nu=1,\ldots,n-1$. The unoriented path $p$ is called an unoriented cycle if $s(p) = t(p)$. An unoriented path $p$ is called reduced if $l(p) > 0$ and if it does not contain an expression of the form $\alpha\alpha^{-1}$ or $\alpha^{-1}\alpha$ as a subword.

	A quiver $Q$ is called connected if for any two vertices $i,j \in Q_0$ there exists an unoriented path $p$ such that $s(p) = i$ and $t(p) = j$. A quiver is called tree-shaped if it is connected and if there are no reduced unoriented cycles in $Q$.

	\begin{defn*}
		A universal cover of a quiver $Q$ is a cover $C$ which is tree-shaped.
	\end{defn*}

	\begin{lem} \label{l:univ}
		Let $Q$ be a quiver.
		\begin{enumerate}
			\item Let $c: C \to Q$ be a universal cover and let $d: D \to Q$ be any cover. Then there exists a morphism of quivers $p: C \to D$ such that $d \circ p = c$.
			\item If $Q$ is connected then it admits a universal cover.
		\end{enumerate}
	\end{lem}

	The second statement was proved in \cite[Prop.\ 3.12]{Weist:13} where it is shown that every connected component of the universal covering quiver is a universal cover.
	The first statement is well known. As we could not find a formal proof we give one here.

	\begin{proof}[Proof of (1)]
		For a connected quiver define $\dist(i,j) := \min \{ l(p) \mid p \in \bar{Q}_* \text{ with } s(p) = i \text{ and } t(p) = j \}$ for vertices $i,j \in Q_0$ and $\dist(\alpha,j) = \min\{ \dist(s(\alpha),j), \dist(t(\alpha),j)\}$.
		As a universal cover is by definition connected, the quiver $Q$ must be connected as well. Fix a vertex $i_0 \in Q_0$. Fix $k_0 \in C_0$ and $l_0 \in D_0$ such that $c_0(k_0) = d(l_0) = i_0$. We define $p$ inductively over the distance. Define $p_0(k_0) = l_0$. Now let $d > 0$ and assume inductively that $p_0$ has been defined on all vertices of $C$ within a distance of $d-1$ to $k_0$ and $p_1$ on all arrows within a distance of $d-2$. Let $\beta_1,\ldots,\beta_n$ be those arrows of $C$ such that $\dist(\beta_\nu,k_0) = d-1$. Then $\beta_\nu$ is adjacent to $k_\nu \in C_1$ such that $\dist(k_\nu,k_0) = d-1$. Let $k_\nu'$ be the other endpoint of $\beta_\nu$. Then $\dist(k_\nu',k_0) = d$ and $k_\nu' \neq k_\mu'$ for $\nu \neq \mu$ (otherwise there would be unoriented cycles). Let $\gamma_\nu$ be the unique arrow adjacent to $p_0(k_\nu)$ such that $c_1(\beta_\nu) = d_1(\gamma_\nu)$. Define $p_1(\beta_\nu) = \gamma_\nu$ and $p_0(k_\nu') = l_\nu'$ where $l_\nu'$ is the other endpoint of $\gamma_\nu$. Proceeding in this way we reach every arrow and every vertex of $C$ as it is connected.
	\end{proof}

	Let $c: C \to Q$ be an arbitrary cover. It induces a functor $c: \operatorname{Rep}(C) \to \operatorname{Rep}(Q)$ as follows: for a representation $N$ of $C$ define $c(N)$ as the representation of $Q$ which on vertices is given by
	$c(N)_i = \bigoplus_{c(k) = i} N_k$ and for an arrow $\alpha: i \to j$ the linear map $c(N)_\alpha: c(N)_i \to c(N)_j$ is defined by
	$$
		c(N)_\alpha\Big(\sum_{c_0(k)=i} v_{i,k}\Big) = \sum_{c_0(k)=i} N_{\beta_k}(v_{i,k})
	$$
	where for every $k$ such that $c_0(k) = i$, the arrow $\beta_k$ is the unique arrow of $C$ such that $s(\beta_k) = k$ and $c_1(\beta_k) = \alpha$. For a representation $M$ of $Q$, a representation $N$ of $C$ for which $c(N) = M$ is called a lift of $M$ to $C$.

	Let $M$ be an exceptional representation of $Q$, that means $M$ is rigid and indecomposable. Ringel shows in \cite{Ringel:98} that $M$ is a tree module. As tree modules lift to a universal cover, we obtain:

	\begin{lem} \label{l:ringel}
		Let $c: C \to Q$ be a universal cover of $Q$. Any exceptional representation of $Q$ possesses a lift to $C$.
	\end{lem}

	We need an abelian approximation to the universal cover. For this we use the universal abelian covering quiver which was introduced by Weist in \cite{Weist:13}.
	The universal abelian covering quiver $\hat{Q}$ of $Q$ is defined as
	\begin{align*}
		\hat{Q}_0 &= Q_0 \times \Z^{Q_1} & \hat{Q}_1 &= Q_1 \times \Z^{Q_1}
	\end{align*}
	where, for a pair $(\alpha,\chi) \in \hat{Q}_1$ we define $s(\alpha,\chi) = (s(\alpha),\chi)$ and $t(\alpha,\chi) = (t(\alpha),\chi+\alpha)$. The morphism $\smash{\hat{c}}: \smash{\hat{Q}} \to Q$ of quivers defined by $\smash{\hat{c}_0}(i,\chi) = i$ and $\smash{\hat{c}_1}(\alpha,\chi) = \alpha$ is a cover. A representation $M$ of $Q$ has a lift $\smash{\hat{M}}$ to $\smash{\hat{Q}}$ if and only if there exist direct sum decompositions $M_i = \smash{\bigoplus_\chi} \smash{\hat{M}_{i,\chi}}$ in such a way that $M_\alpha(\smash{\hat{M}_{s(\alpha),\chi}}) \sub \smash{\hat{M}_{t(\alpha),\chi+\alpha}}$.

	We want to show that rigidity and exceptionality are preserved for lifts. Let $\smash{\hat{M}}$ be a representation of $\smash{\hat{Q}}$ and let $M = \smash{\hat{c}(\hat{M})}$. Let $\xi \in X(T)$ and define $S_{\xi}(\smash{\hat{M}})$ as the representation with $S_\xi(\smash{\hat{M}})_{i,\chi} = \smash{\hat{M}_{i,\chi+\xi}}$ and $S_\xi(\smash{\hat{M}})_{\alpha,\chi} = \smash{\hat{M}_{\alpha,\chi+\xi}}$. This defines an endofunctor on the category of representations of $\smash{\hat{Q}}$.

	\begin{lem} \label{l:rigidCover}
		Let $\smash{\hat{M}}$ and $\smash{\hat{N}}$ be two representations of $\smash{\hat{Q}}$ and let $M = \smash{\hat{c}(\hat{M})}$ and $N = \smash{\hat{c}(\hat{N})}$. Then
		\begin{align*}
			\Hom_Q(M,N) &\cong \bigoplus_{\xi \in X(T)} \Hom_{\hat{Q}}(S_\xi(\hat{M}),\hat{N}) &
			\Ext_Q(M,N) &\cong \bigoplus_{\xi \in X(T)} \Ext_{\hat{Q}}(S_\xi(\hat{M}),\hat{N})
		\end{align*}
		In particular, if $M$ is rigid or exceptional, then so is $\smash{\hat{M}}$.
	\end{lem}

	\begin{proof}
		Consider the exact sequence
		$$
			0 \to \Hom_Q(M,N) \to \bigoplus_i \Hom(M_i,N_i) \xto{}{\phi} \bigoplus_\alpha \Hom(M_{s(\alpha)},M_{t(\alpha)}) \to \Ext_Q(M,N) \to 0.
		$$
		which arises by applying the functor $\Hom(\blank,N)$ to the standard projective resolution of $M$. The map $\phi$ is given by $\phi(\sum_i f_i) = \sum_\alpha N_\alpha f_{s(\alpha)} - f_{t(\alpha)} M_\alpha$. The second term of the exact sequence decomposes as
		\begin{align*}
			\bigoplus_i \Hom(M_i,N_i) &= \bigoplus_i \bigoplus_{\chi,\eta} \Hom(\hat{M}_{i,\chi},\hat{N}_{i,\eta}) = \bigoplus_\xi \bigoplus_{(i,\chi)} \Hom(\hat{M}_{i,\chi+\xi},\hat{N}_{i,\chi}) \\
			&= \bigoplus_\xi \bigoplus_{(i,\chi)} \Hom(S_\xi(\hat{M})_{i,\chi},\hat{N}_{i,\chi}).
		\end{align*}
		In the same vein we identify
		$$
			\bigoplus_\alpha \Hom(M_{s(\alpha)},M_{t(\alpha)}) = \bigoplus_\xi \bigoplus_{(\alpha,\chi)} \Hom(S_\xi(\hat{M})_{i,\chi},\hat{N}_{i,\chi+\alpha}).
		$$
		Using these identifications the map $\phi$ sends $\sum_\xi \sum_{(i,\chi)} f_{\xi,(i,\chi)}$ to
		$$
			\sum_\xi \sum_{(\alpha,\chi)} \hat{N}_{\alpha,\chi} f_{\xi,(s(\alpha),\chi)} - f_{\xi,(t(\alpha),\chi+\alpha)} \hat{M}_{\alpha,\chi+\xi}
		$$
		which shows the desired isomorphisms of the $\Hom$ and $\Ext$ groups. The consequence that rigidity and exceptionality are preserved for lifts is clear.
	\end{proof}

	In contrast to a universal cover the covers $\smash{\hat{Q}}$ may have reduced unoriented cycles. However, if we denote by $l_Q$ the minimal length of all reduced unoriented cycles in the underlying graph of $Q$, we see that this number gets bigger when passing to the universal abelian covering quiver:

	\begin{lem} \label{l:cycles}
		Let $Q$ be a quiver and let $\hat{Q}$ its universal abelian covering quiver. Then $l_Q < l_{\hat{Q}}$.
	\end{lem}

	This was proved implicitly in \cite[Prop.\ 3.12]{Weist:13}. We include a proof for the convenience of the reader.

	\begin{proof}
		Consider a reduced unoriented cycle $\hat{p} = (\alpha_r,\chi_r)^{\epsilon_r}\ldots(\alpha_1,\chi_1)^{\epsilon_1}$ of $\smash{\hat{Q}}$ which is of minimal length $r = \smash{l_{\hat{Q}}}$. Note that
		\begin{align*}
			s((\alpha,\chi)^{\epsilon}) &= \begin{cases} (s(\alpha),\chi) & \text{if } \epsilon = +1 \\ (t(\alpha),\chi+\alpha) & \text{if } \epsilon = -1 \end{cases} &
			t((\alpha,\chi)^{\epsilon}) &= \begin{cases} (t(\alpha),\chi+\alpha) & \text{if } \epsilon = +1 \\ (s(\alpha),\chi) & \text{if } \epsilon = -1 \end{cases} \\
			&= (s(\alpha^{\epsilon}),\chi+\frac{1-\epsilon}{2}\alpha) &
			&= (t(\alpha^{\epsilon}),\chi+\frac{1+\epsilon}{2}\alpha)
		\end{align*}
		As $\hat{p}$ is a cycle, we obtain that $p := \hat{c}(\hat{p}) = \alpha_r^{\epsilon_r}\ldots\alpha_1^{\epsilon_1}$ is a cycle in the underlying graph of $Q$ and the equations
		\begin{align*}
			\chi_{\nu+1} + \frac{1-\epsilon_{\nu+1}}{2}\alpha_{\nu+1} &= \chi_\nu + \frac{1+\epsilon_\nu}{2}\alpha_\nu \\
			\chi_{1} + \frac{1-\epsilon_{1}}{2}\alpha_{1} &= \chi_n + \frac{1+\epsilon_n}{2}\alpha_n
		\end{align*}
		force
		$$
			\epsilon_1\alpha_1 + \ldots \epsilon_r\alpha_r = 0.
		$$
		This equation implies that for every arrow $\alpha$ which occurs in $p$ its formal inverse $\alpha^{-1}$ occurs as well (and vice versa). As the sequence of $\hat{p}$ is reduced hence so is $p$, and thus $\alpha$ and $\alpha^{-1}$ cannot appear as neighbors in the cyclic order. This means that the cycle $p$ visits the same vertex twice and hence possesses a proper subcycle.
	\end{proof}

	To get an approximation to the universal cover we iteratively define
	$$
		\hat{Q}^{(n)} := \hat{ \hat{Q}^{(n-1)} }
	$$
	for every $n > 1$; the quiver $\smash{\hat{Q}^{(0)}}$ is defined as $Q$. Denote the covering morphism with $\smash{\hat{c}_{n,n-1}}: \smash{\hat{Q}^{(n)}} \to \smash{\hat{Q}^{(n-1)}}$. The concatenation of these covering morphism yields a cover $\smash{\hat{c}^{(n)}}: \smash{\hat{Q}^{(n)}} \to Q$. From Lemma \ref{l:univ} we deduce

	\begin{lem} \label{l:covermaps}
		Let $c: C \to Q$ be a universal cover of $Q$. Then for every $n \geq 0$ there exists a morphism of quivers $\smash{p^{(n)}}: C \to \smash{\hat{Q}^{(n)}}$ such that $\smash{p^{(0)}} = c$ and
		$$
			\hat{c}_{n,n-1} \circ p^{(n)} = p^{(n-1)}.
		$$
	\end{lem}

	The restriction of $p^{(n)}$ to its range is a cover. This implies that $\smash{p^{(n)}}$ induces a functor $\smash{p^{(n)}}: \operatorname{Rep}(C) \to \operatorname{Rep}(\smash{\hat{Q}^{(n)}})$.

	\begin{lem} \label{l:lift}
		Let $M$ be a representation of $Q$ which has a lift $N$ to a universal cover $C$ of $Q$. Choose for any $n \geq 0$ morphism of quivers $\smash{p^{(n)}}$ as in Lemma \ref{l:covermaps}. Then $\smash{p^{(n)}}(N)$ is a lift of $M$ to $\smash{\hat{Q}^{(n)}}$. There exists an $n > 0$ such that the support of $\smash{p^{(n)}}(N)$ is a tree.
	\end{lem}

	\begin{proof}
		The assertion that $\smash{p^{(n)}}(N)$ is a lift of $M$ to $\smash{\hat{Q}}^{(n)}$ follows from $c = \hat{c}^{(n)} \circ p^{(n)}$. By Lemma \ref{l:cycles} we find a natural number $n$ such that $\smash{l_{\hat{Q}^{(n)}}} > \dim_k M$. This implies that the support of $\smash{p^{(n)}}(N)$ is a tree.
	\end{proof}

	\section{Torus Actions on Quiver Grassmannians}

	We consider two types of torus actions on the quiver Grasmmannian of a rigid representation and reduce the question of rationality to the components of the fixed point locus. We briefly explain the general principle behind this construction. For details we refer the reader to \cite{Bialynicki:73}.

	Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over the algebraically closed field $k$. Let $T = (\mathbb{G}_m)^n$ be an algebraic torus and assume it acts on $X$. The locus of $T$-fixed points $X^T$ is closed. For a one-parameter subgroup $\lambda$ of $T$ consider the induced $\mathbb{G}_m$-action on $X$. The set of fixed points $X^{\lambda(\G_m)}$ of this action contains $X^T$. It is always possible to choose $\lambda$ sufficiently generically such that $X^T = X^{\lambda(\G_m)}$. Let $x \in X(k)$, i.e.\ a closed point of $X$. Consider the morphism $\G_m \to X$ which on closed points is given by $z \mapsto \lambda(z)x$. This morphism can be extended uniquely to a morphism $\A^1 \to X$ as $X$ is separated and complete. We denote its value at $0$ by $\lim_{z \to 0} \lambda(z)x$. This point is automatically a $\lambda(\G_m)$-fixed point. Let $C_\nu$ be a connected component of the fixed point locus. Then by \cite[Thm.\ 4.1]{Bialynicki:73} there is a locally closed subvariety $A_\nu(\lambda)$, called the attractor of $C_\nu$, whose closed points are
	$$
		\{x \in X(k) \mid \lim_{z \to 0} \lambda(z)x \text{ lies in } C_\nu \}.
	$$
	Moreover the map $A_\nu(\lambda) \to C_\nu$ is an affine bundle (even a vector bundle according to \cite[II, Thm.\ 4.2]{BCM:02}). As $X$ is irreducible, there is precisely one attractor which is open, say $A_{\nu_0}(\lambda)$. If $C_{\nu_0}$ is rational then so is $A_{\nu_0}(\lambda)$ and this would imply rationality of $X$. Summarizing:

	\begin{lem} \label{l:BB}
		Let $X$ be a smooth projective (irreducible) variety which is acted upon by a torus $T$. Let $\lambda$ be a generic one parameter subgroup for this action and let $C_{\nu_0}$ be the unique component of the fixed point locus $X^T$ for which the attractor $A_{\nu_0}(\lambda)$ is open in $X$. If $C_{\nu_0}$ is rational then $X$ is rational, too.
	\end{lem}

	The first torus action that we are going to use reduces the case of a rigid representation to the case of an exceptional representation. It has already been introduced in the proof of \cite[Prop.\ 3.2]{DWZ:10}. Let $M = M^{(1)} \oplus \ldots \oplus M^{(n)}$ be the decomposition of a rigid representation $M$ into indecomposable direct summands. Then every $M^{(r)}$ is exceptional. Let $d^{(r)} = \dimvect M^{(r)}$. Consider the action of $T = (\G_m)^n$ on $\Gr_e(M)$ as follows: for $t = (t_1,\ldots,t_n)$ and $U \in \Gr_e(M)$ let $u = \sum_r u_r$ be the decomposition of $u \in U$ into summands $u_r \in \smash{M^{(r)}}$. Define $t*u = \sum_r t_ru_r$ and $t*U = \{t*u \mid u \in U\}$. The subspace $t*U$ is in fact a subrepresentation of $M$ of dimension vector $e$, hence it belongs to $\Gr_e(M)$. A subrepresentation $U$ of $M$ is a fixed point of this action if and only if $U = \bigoplus_r U \cap M^{(r)}$. We conclude that
	$$
		\Gr_e(M)^T = \bigsqcup_{e^{(r)} \leq d^{(r)},\ \sum_r e^{(r)} = e} \Gr_{e^{(1)}}(M^{(1)}) \times \ldots \times \Gr_{e^{(n)}}(M^{(n)}).
	$$
	An application of Lemma \ref{l:BB} now shows

	\begin{lem} \label{l:red1}
		Let $M$ be a rigid representation of $Q$ and let $M = M^{(1)} \oplus \ldots \oplus M^{(n)}$ be its decomposition into indecomposable direct summands. If every quiver Grassmannian associated with each $M^{(r)}$ is rational, then $\Gr_e(M)$ is rational.
	\end{lem}

	The second torus action reduces the case of an exceptional representation of an arbitrary quiver to the case of an exceptional representation of a tree-shaped quiver. A variant of this action was employed in \cite[4.2]{RW:18}.
	Let $M$ be an exceptional representation of $Q$. By Lemma \ref{l:ringel} $M$ lifts to a universal cover. So it also possesses a lift to the universal abelian covering quiver. Fix such a lift $\smash{\hat{M}}$, i.e.\ fix a decomposition $M_i = \bigoplus_\chi \smash{\hat{M}_{i,\chi}}$ such that $M_\alpha(\smash{\hat{M}_{s(\alpha)}}) \sub \smash{\hat{M}_{t(\alpha),\chi+\alpha}}$.
	Let $T$ be the algebraic torus $\smash{(\mathbb{G}_m)^{Q_1}}$. Its group of characters is precisely $\smash{\Z^{Q_1}}$. Let $G = \prod_{i \in Q_0} \GL(M_i)$. Let $\psi: T \to G$ be the group homomorphism that corresponds to the chosen decomposition. More precisely this means that $\psi$ is given by group homomorphisms $\psi_i: T \to \GL(M_i)$ which are defined as
	$$
		\psi_i(t): M_i \to M_i, v_i \mapsto \sum_\chi \chi(t)v_{i,\chi}
	$$
	where $v_i = \sum_\chi v_{i,\chi}$ is the decomposition of a vector with respect to the direct sum decomposition. We define a $T$-action on $\Gr_e(M)$ via $t * U = (\psi_i(t) U_i)_i$. To show that this is well-defined we need to make sure that $t * U$ is again a subrepresentation of $M$. Observe that for every arrow $\alpha: i \to j$
	$$
		\psi_j(t)M_\alpha \psi_i(t)^{-1} = t_\alpha M_\alpha.
	$$
	Hence we see that
	$$
		M_\alpha(\psi_i(t)U_i) = t_\alpha^{-1}\psi_j(t)M_\alpha\psi_i(t)(\psi_i(t)U_i) = t_\alpha^{-1}\psi_j(t)M_\alpha(U_i) \sub t_a^{-1}\psi_j(t)U_j = \psi_j(t)U_j
	$$
	which proves that, indeed, $t*U$ is a subrepresentation of $M$. A subrepresentation $U$ of $M$ is a fixed point of this torus action on $\Gr_e(M)$ if and only if
	$$
		U_i = \bigoplus_\chi U_i \cap \hat{M}_{i,\chi}.
	$$
	Let $\hat{d}$ be the dimension vector of $\smash{\hat{M}}$. The above argument shows that the fixed point locus $\Gr_e(M)^T$ decomposes as the disjoint union
	$$
		\bigsqcup_{\hat{e} \leq \hat{d},\ c(\hat{e}) = e} \Gr_{\hat{e}}(\hat{M})
	$$
	the components of which are quiver Grassmannians of $\smash{\hat{M}}$ which is a representation of $\hat{Q}$.
	So, applying again Lemma \ref{l:BB}, we get

	\begin{lem} \label{l:red2}
		Let $M$ be an exceptional representation of $Q$ and let $\smash{\hat{M}}$ be a lift of $M$ to the abelian covering quiver. If every quiver Grassmannian associated with $\smash{\hat{M}}$ is rational, then so is $\Gr_e(M)$.
	\end{lem}

	\section{Rigid Quiver Grassmannians of Tree-Shaped Quivers}

	In this section let $Q$ be an orientation of a tree. Let $M$ be a rigid representation of $Q$. Let $l$ be a leaf of $Q$, i.e.\ a vertex with just one arrow adjacent to it. Without loss of generality we may assume $l$ to be a sink; if $l$ is a source we may argue in a similar way or apply the reflection functor at $l$ which defines a birational equivalence $\Gr_e(M) \dashrightarrow \Gr_{\sigma_l(e)}(S_l^+(M))$ (see \cite[Thm.\ 5.16]{Wolf:09}).

	Let $\beta: k \to l$ be the unique arrow ending in $l$.
	Let $Q'$ be the full subquiver of $Q$ on $Q'_0 = Q_0 - \{l\}$. For a representation $N$ of $Q$, define $N'$ as the representation of $Q'$ which arises by forgetting about $N_l$ and $N_\beta$. For a dimension vector $d$ of $Q$ let $d' = (d_i)_{i \neq l}$.

	\begin{lem} \label{l:rigid}
		Let $M$ be a rigid representation of $Q$. Then $M'$ is a rigid representation of $Q'$.
	\end{lem}

	\begin{proof}
		Consider the short exact sequence $0 \to S(l)\otimes M_l \to M \to M'' \to 0$ of representations of $Q$. It is obvious that $\Ext_{Q'}(M',M') = \Ext_Q(M'',M'')$. It hence suffices to show that $M''$ is a rigid representation of $Q$. An application of $\Hom_Q(M,\blank)$ (we are going to drop the subscript $Q$ in the following) to the short exact sequence above yields a surjection
		$$
			\ldots \to \Ext(M,M) \to \Ext(M,M'') \to 0
		$$
		and hence $\Ext(M,M'') = 0$ for $M$ is rigid. Applying $\Hom(\blank,M'')$ to the same short exact sequence renders
		$$
			\ldots \to \Hom(S(l) \otimes M_l,M'') \to \Ext(M'',M'') \to \Ext(M,M'') \to \ldots.
		$$
		The group $\Ext(M,M'')$ vanishes as we have just pointed out and $\Hom(S(l) \otimes M_l,M'')$ vanishes too, as $M''_l = 0$. This shows that $\Ext(M'',M'') = 0$.
	\end{proof}

	We consider the morphism $p_l: \Gr_e(M) \to \Gr_{e'}(M')$ of varieties which sends $U$ to $p_l(U) = U'$. For a subrepresentation $U'$ of $M'$ the set of closed points of the fiber $p_l^{-1}(U')$ is the set
	$$
		\{U_l \in \Gr_{e_l}(M_l) \mid M_\beta(U'_k) \sub U_l \}.
	$$
	Consider the map of vector bundles on $\Gr_{e'}(M')$
	$$
		\phi_\beta: \UU'_k \to (M'_k)_{\Gr_{e'}(M')} = (M_k)_{\Gr_{e'}(M')} \xto{}{M_\beta} (M_l)_{\Gr_{e'}(M')}
	$$
	Let $X \sub \Gr_{e'}(M')$ be the dense open subset over which $\phi_\beta$ has maximal rank, say $r$. Then the image $\im \phi_\beta$ is a vector bundle of rank $r$ on $X$ (note that $\Gr_{e'}(M')$ is smooth and hence reduced) and the restriction $p_l^{-1}(X) \to X$ of $p_l$ identifies the the total space $p_l^{-1}(X)$ with the subbundle Grassmannian $\Gr_{e_l-r}((M_l)_X/\im \phi_\beta)$ as a scheme over $X$.

	\begin{lem} \label{l:vb}
		Let $X$ be rational variety, let $E$ be a vector bundle on $X$ of rank $n$ and let $r \leq n$. Then $\Gr_r(E)$ is a rational variety.
	\end{lem}

	\begin{proof}
		Let $U$ be a non-empty open subset of $X$ over which $E$ trivializes, say $E|_U \cong U \times k^n$. Let $p: \Gr_r(E) \to X$ be the structure map. Then $p^{-1}(U) \cong U \times \Gr_r^n$. As both $U$ and $\Gr_r^n$ are rational, then so is $p^{-1}(U)$ and thus also $\Gr_r(E)$.
	\end{proof}

	The above lemma shows that, in order to show that $\Gr_e(M)$ is rational, it suffices to prove that $X$ is rational, or equivalently that $\Gr_{e'}(M')$ is rational.

	\begin{lem} \label{l:treeRational}
		Let $Q$ be tree-shaped and let $M$ be a rigid representation of $Q$. Then $\Gr_e(M)$ is a rational variety.
	\end{lem}

	\begin{proof}
		We choose a leaf of $Q$, say $l$, of which we may without loss of generality assume that it is a sink. Over a suitable non-empty open subset $X \sub \Gr_{e'}(M')$ the map $p_l: \Gr_e(M) \to \Gr_{e'}(M')$ is a Grassmann bundle. Hence by Lemma \ref{l:vb}  $\Gr_e(M)$ is rational provided that $\Gr_{e'}(M')$ is. But $M'$ is also rigid by Lemma \ref{l:rigid} hence we may assume by induction on the number of vertices of the quiver that $\Gr_{e'}(M')$ is a rational variety. The base of this induction is the case of a single vertex and no arrows; in this case the quiver Grassmannian is an ordinary Grassmannian which is rational.
	\end{proof}

	\section{Proof of the Main Result}

	We are ready to prove Theorem \ref{t:main} which states that the quiver Grassmannian $\Gr_e(M)$ associated with a rigid representation $M$ is a rational variety.

	\begin{proof}[Proof of Theorem \ref{t:main}]
		Let $C$ be a universal cover of $Q$. Using Lemma \ref{l:red1}, we may assume without loss of generality that $M$ is exceptional. Being exceptional, $M$ possesses a lift $N$ to $C$ by Lemma \ref{l:ringel}. Choose cover morphisms $\smash{p^{(n)}}$ as in Lemma \ref{l:covermaps} and a natural number $n$ large enough such that $\smash{p^{(n)}(N)}$ is supported on a tree, which is possible according to Lemma \ref{l:lift}. Inductively applying Lemma \ref{l:red2}, we see that $\Gr_e(M)$ is rational provided that every quiver Grassmannian $\Gr_f(\smash{p^{(n)}(N)})$ is. But as $\smash{p^{(n)}(N)}$ is exceptional by virtue of Lemma \ref{l:rigidCover} and supported on a tree, rationality of the quiver Grasmmannian $\Gr_f(\smash{p^{(n)}(N)})$ follows from Lemma \ref{l:treeRational}. This concludes the proof.
	\end{proof}

Multitasking has always been one of Android's strengths relative to other mobile operating systems. As the first cell phone OS with "true" multitasking, Android's been ahead of the game in this department for quite some time.
To stay on top of the heap, though, further innovation will be required. Custom ROMs have often given Google inspiration for new features (see: Cyanogenmod's CRT screen-off effect that's now in stock Android), and today's mod could be one such feature.
OmniSwitch is a new multitasking feature of the increasingly-popular OmniROM. It allows you to completely customize the look and feel of your task-switching UI, and adds functionality to an aspect of Android that's beginning to feel a bit dated. Normally, this feature is exclusive to Omni's own custom ROM, but thanks to some work by XDA user Venlor, we can now enjoy this great multitasking tool on stock Android.
To get started, use your Nexus to browse to this link. The download should begin automatically. Updated links can be found on the XDA thread.
For OmniSwitch to be granted all of the system-level access that it needs to fully function, we'll need to make a tiny modification to Android itself. Developer ChelpuS has created a feature-rich root tool that can help us accomplish this step.
From your Nexus, head over to this link to grab a copy of ChelpuS's Lucky Patcher. Tap the last entry in this list of links to download the latest version.
When the download finishes, tap the notification to launch the install process. From here, hit Install, then Open.
Lucky Patcher will automatically load up all of the necessary packages as soon as you open it. Next, grant the app Superuser privileges when asked.
From the main screen of Lucky Patcher, tap Toolbox at the bottom-left. Choose Patch to Android from the next menu.
While Lucky Patcher is a great tool with many functions, the only one we'll be using today is Disable Signature Verification in the Package Manager. Tick the box next to that entry, but before you hit Apply, let me jump ahead for a second.
The ZIP file you downloaded earlier is meant to be flashed in custom recovery, which you would normally have to access through a reboot. Lucky Patcher will automatically reboot your phone as soon as you hit apply, so we have an opportunity to save a step here.
As soon as you hit Apply, just hold down the Volume Down button on your phone. After a few seconds, Android's bootloader menu will come up. From here, just tap the Volume Down button twice to highlight Recovery Mode, then press the Power button to select it.
Now that Android has been readied and you've booted into your custom recovery, you can install OmniSwitch. I'll be demonstrating with TWRP Recovery here, but the process should be similar on any other custom recovery.
First, tap Install, then navigate to your Download folder. From here, select the OmniSwitch1.1.zip file that you downloaded earlier.
Next, just swipe the slider at the bottom to install OmniSwitch. When the process is finished, just hit Reboot System.
When you're booted back up, you'll notice a new icon in your app drawer. Go ahead and open OmniSwitch to get started on a little initial setup.
First, set the toggle switch up top to On. This will enable the OmniSwitch service so you can preview your changes as you make them. A feature tour will appear that highlights the OmniSwitch trigger area.
Next, tick the box next to Start on boot to ensure that the service will always be running.
There are many different customization options available here, so I'll go over some highlights.
Tap Icon Size to change the size of the icons that appear when you trigger OmniSwitch. From here, select Small, Normal, or Large.
If you have any icon packs installed, you can apply them by tapping the Icon Pack entry. Just select the icons you want to use from the following list.
By default, OmniSwitch is a small pop-over window with a touch of transparency that allows you to see underneath it. To extend this transparency throughout the whole screen for a system-integrated look, tick the box next to Dim Background.
OmniSwitch is more than just a task switcher—it also allows you to perform memory management and other settings-related functions at the tap of a button. These buttons show directly above your recent apps, and can be reorganized by tapping the Buttons menu entry.
To bring up OmniSwitch, simply swipe inward from within the trigger area. Tap Position and size to adjust this trigger area, and you can even switch the side of the screen that the trigger appears on.
If the blue color of this trigger area isn't your style, you can change that by tapping Color. From here, select any color and press OK.
You can even make the trigger area invisible altogether by sliding the Opacity slider all the way to the left.
A "Quick Switcher" mode can be enabled using the toggle directly below this menu header.
As the overlay shows you, just long-press the trigger area to bring up Quick Switcher mode. From here, without lifting your finger, just swipe left or right to select a recent app, and when you let go, the app will be opened.
For quick access to your most-used apps, tap Manage Favorites, then hit Add... on the next screen.
From here, just tick the boxes next to your most-used apps and press OK. You'll be given a chance to reorder these apps, and when you're satisfied, tap OK again.
Now, as the overlay shows you, a small down arrow in OmniSwitch will give you quick access to these apps from any screen.
OmniSwitch can be customized to fit almost any style, so keep playing with these options until you find the right look for you.
All told, OmniSwitch is one of the most feature-rich multitasking tools out there. What are some of the settings you're using? Let us know in the comments section below.


(NaturalNews) Researchers at the Medical College of Georgia at Georgia Health Sciences University have published evidence that cardiovascular disease and diabetes risk is present in the blood fractions of adolescents who consume a lot of fructose, a scenario that worsens in the face of excess belly fat. Published in the Journal of Nutrition, scientists determined that high dietary fructose consumption results in lower levels of cardiovascular protectors such as HDL cholesterol and adiponectin, due in part to how the body metabolizes the fruit-based mega-sweetener at the cellular level.
Excess body fat accumulated around the mid-section, a rapidly growing problem in adolescents, compounds the problem when compared to those with less visceral fat deposits. A wealth of scientifically validated research studies now highlight the importance of eliminating fructose in all its forms from the diets of both adults and children alike to dramatically reduce risk of diabetes and heart disease.
One of the study authors, Dr. Norman Pollock noted "Fructose itself is metabolized differently than other sugars and has some byproducts that are believed to be bad for us… there's something in the syrup processing that plays a role in the bad byproducts of metabolism." The Corn Refiners Association, through a never ending barrage of advertisements, wants you to believe that there is no difference between high fructose corn syrup and regular sugar. Medical research has documented that fructose is processed primarily in the liver where it wreaks havoc, leading to fatty liver disease and even cirrhosis after excessive and repeated exposure.

Do you suffer from Bell's Palsy? Bell's palsy is facial paralysis. Patients describe waking up in the morning with one half of their face paralyzed. They are often unable to smile or close their eye. This condition has no Western medicine treatment. The good news is that the Raleigh Acupuncture Bell's Palsy treatment can completely resolve it.
Learn how we treat face pain (including Bell's Palsy) in this video.
Bell's palsy is a terrible condition because, for most people, it leaves their face paralyzed for life. Acupuncture is the only treatment available that resolves this condition. However, in order to work, the patient must start acupuncture treatment as soon as possible. Best results are obtained if patients begin treatment in the first few weeks after Bell's Palsy sets in.
By the time six months pass, it is often too late for full recovery. This condition is unlike most others. For most conditions, patients can be affected for years and still get excellent results from acupuncture. Bell's palsy is the exception. So if you get this condition, come in immediately for treatment.
Luckily, Chinese medicine also has a solution for expelling internal wind of this nature. We have perfected this treatment over many years of practice to the point where we can resolve most cases of facial paralysis. The Raleigh Acupuncture Bell's Palsy treatment is truly superior.
If you suffer from Bell's Palsy and facial paralysis, don't delay. Come in for treatment immediately. BOOK NOW. The sooner you start treatment the better your results. Or call us at 919-819-8113.
Raleigh Acupuncture Bell's Palsy treatment works best to resolve facial paralysis. Acupuncture is the only effective treatment for Bell's Palsy.


Psoriasis, also termed, 'psoriasis vulgaris,' is a common, chronic, relapsing/remitting, immune-mediated skin disease characterized by red, scaly patches, papules, and plaques, which usually itch. The skin lesions associated with psoriasis may vary in severity from minor localized patches to complete body coverage. The disease affects 2-4% of the population and often runs in families.
Psoriasis causes the life cycle of your skin cells to accelerate, leading to a buildup of dead cells on the surface of your skin. Normal skin cells grow gradually and flake off about every four weeks. New skin cells grow to replace the outer layers of the skin as they shed. In psoriasis, new skin cells move to the surface of your skin in days rather than weeks. They build up and form patches called plaques. The patches range in size and most commonly appear on the knees, elbows, scalp, hands, feet, and lower back. These red plaques usually itch and are often painful.
Psoriasis has no cure. Experts believe that the disease occurs when the immune system overreacts, causing inflammation and flaking of the skin. Symptoms often disappear or go into remission — even without treatment — only to return and flare up later. Most cases of psoriasis are mild and treatable, but others may require different treatment combinations before the disease is brought under control. Sometimes, psoriasis causes joints to become swollen, tender, and painful. This is called psoriatic arthritis (see 'Arthritis').
It is rare that psoriasis is severe enough to prevent a person from sustaining full time work for a year or more. Nonetheless, the Social Security Administration recognizes that some cases may cause disability.
If your psoriasis prevents you from sustaining full time work for a year or more, then you may qualify for Social Security disability benefits. Under Social Security Medical Listing 8.05, dermatitis (psoriasis, dyshidrosis, atopic dermatitis, exfoliative dermatitis, or allergic contact dermatitis), with extensive skin lesions, must persist for at least 3 months and be expected to last at least 12 months, despite continuing prescribed treatment.
Your skin condition will be assessed on the extent of your skin lesions, the frequency of flare-ups, how your symptoms and pain limit you, the extent of your treatment, how your treatment affects you, your response to treatment, your prognosis, and your ability to function. To confirm the diagnosis, the Social Security Administration may require laboratory findings, blood tests, and other evidence from acceptable medical sources consistent with the prevailing state of medical knowledge and clinical practice.
Your representative can help you determine whether your psoriasis meets the severity requirement of the Social Security Administration to qualify for disability benefits.

Mike Pompeo Accuses Democrats of Trying to 'Intimidate, Bully' State Department Officials over Trump Impeachment Inquiry
By Alexandra Hutzler On 10/1/19 at 12:40 PM EDT
U.S. Impeachment Mike Pompeo House of Representatives
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo slammed congressional Democrats for requesting depositions from department officials as part of their ongoing impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump, calling the move an intimidation tactic.
"I'm concerned with aspects of the Committee's request that can be understood only as an attempt to intimidate, bully, & treat improperly the distinguished professionals of the Department of State, including several career FSOs," Pompeo wrote in a tweet on Tuesday.
In a follow-up post, Pompeo added that he would "use all means at my disposal to prevent and expose any attempts to intimidate the dedicated professionals whom I am proud to lead and serve alongside at the Department of State."
Let me be clear: I will not tolerate such tactics, and I will use all means at my disposal to prevent and expose any attempts to intimidate the dedicated professionals whom I am proud to lead and serve alongside at the Department of State.
— Secretary Pompeo (@SecPompeo) October 1, 2019
Along with tweets, Pompeo sent a letter to House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Eliot Engel pushing back against the committee's attempt to depose officials and called the Democrats' timeline to schedule the depositions between October 2 and October 10 "not feasible."

Last week, the leaders of three House committees (Engel, Elijah Cummings and Adam Schiff) issued a subpoena to Pompeo for documents related to their impeachment inquiry. The committees also told the secretary of state that they wanted to depose five agency officials.
Lawmakers have raised concerns that the State Department may have played a role in Trump's alleged attempts to pressure Ukraine to investigate 2020 political rival Joe Biden and his son Hunter. On Monday it was reported that Pompeo himself took part in the July 25th phone call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenksy.
House committee chairmen declared that Pompeo's "failure or refusal to comply" with their demand would "constitute evidence of obstruction of the House's impeachment inquiry."
Pompeo asserted in his letter that he had been "made aware that Committee staff has been sending intimidating communications" to State Department official outside the normal procedural channels.

House Democrats say they are moving full steam ahead on the impeachment inquiry and will ideally wrap up the investigation by the end of their current legislative session in December. They've already issued several subpoenas, including to Pompeo and Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani.
On Monday, the House argued in a court filing that it needed access to secret grand jury information used in former special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian election interference. The chamber claimed that the materials "may also be relevant to the House's investigation of the President's solicitation of Ukrainian interference in the 2020 election."
Trump has shrugged off the impeachment investigation, deeming it another "Democratic witch hunt."
But according to polls from Quinnipiac University, support for removing the president has been growing since Democrats launched the inquiry. The most recent poll found that support for impeachment grew by 10 points in one week, jumping from 37 percent to 47 percent of respondents supporting the move.

Sorry for the delay guys. I'm trying to force myself to do more Demontails and HoneyBadger stuff.
Wow I just went back to when Sadie was introduced and you can totally see part of her TAIL as she is coming out of the portal …. awesome job!


Many thanks to everyone who entered our Braddan Bake Off, whether it was the cupcake competition or providing cakes for our very popular cake sale. There was a great range of decoration, and the judges had a very difficult job choosing the winners!
It is great t welcome everyone back to the start of the new school year. In the next few weeks we will be setting up new pages on the website for each class, so make sure you have a look to see what your children have been up to.


With 12 huge glass "sails," the Louis Vuitton Foundation takes the form of a sailboat among the trees of the Bois de Boulogne in Paris.
Paris, the city of light, shines even brighter since yet another architectural masterpiece by Frank Gehry opened its doors in the Bois de Boulogne: the Louis Vuitton Foundation. Like so many of Mr. Gehry's buildings such as the Guggenheim Bilbao and the Walt Disney Concert Hall, it is a unique work of art; "an iconic building for the 21st century".
Following in the footsteps of individuals, corporations are now getting on the private museum bandwagon as their vast art collections cry out to be properly housed and displayed. Such was the case when Bernard Arnault, Chairman and CEO of the luxury goods conglomerate LVMH (Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessey) approached Mr. Gehry to design a spectacular edifice to promote artistic creation and provide space for LVMH's and Mr. Arnaud's contemporary art collections.
Mr. Gehry's design is a breathtaking, $143-million, 126,000 sq. ft, 2.5 storey, glass- and steel-clad, boat-like structure with gigantic glass and steel "sails" that contain 3,600 panes of glass supported by wooden beams. The "sails" give the Foundation its transparency and sense of movement and allow the building to reflect its surrounding water, woods and gardens while continually changing its appearance according to the time of day. White concrete blocks nicknamed "the icebergs", clad in 19,000 fiber-reinforced concrete panels, constitute the central core of the Foundation in which its galleries are located. There are 11 indoor galleries of various sizes for the Foundation's works of art and a 350-seat auditorium for special events and concerts. Multi-level roof terraces provide unforgettable panoramas of Paris and frame some of the Foundation's commissioned art installations.
Outdoor and indoor water elements encompass the building that seemingly floats on the water garden at its centre; a waterfall and fountain grace the indoors.
The permanent art collection covers pop art, expressionism, and music, including works by Jean-Michel Basquiat, Christian Boltanski, Damien Hirst, Yves Klein, Jeff Koons, Takashi Murakami, Richard Prince, Gerhard Richter, Mark Rothko, Frank Stella, and Andy Warhol.
Among the internationally renowned artists commissioned to create site-specific works for the Foundation are Janet Cardiff, Olaf Eliasson, Elsworth Kelly, George Bures Miller, Sarah Morris, Adrian Villár Rojas, and Taryn Simon.
Without question, the Louis Vuitton Foundation is a Parisian highlight not to be missed.

Kayak Point Golf Course is 270 Acres located only 12 miles from City of Marysville. This property was acquired from Atlantic Richfield in 1972 with the rest of Kayak Point Regional Park.
As new information becomes available, this page will be updated, via News Flash, to inform our neighbors and potential vendors/operators on the status of the property. To subscribe, click here, then scroll down the Golf Course Property item.
Why did the golf course close?
Access Golf ended their operation at Kayak Point Golf Course on October 21, 2018. Access Golf could no longer meet its contractual obligations of paying Snohomish County a flat fee of $90,000 per year in addition to the Surface Water Management Fees (SWM), 5% admission tax, and lease hold excise tax, etc. Snohomish County renegotiated the flat fee in 2017 for 2018 from $170,000 to $90,000 with the hope that Access Golf could continue to financaily afford to operate the golf course with a lessor flat fee.
Why the county cannot subsidize golf?
Unlike cities that can choose to subsidize the cost of a government owned golf course, Snohomish County does not have the financial ability to do so. In 2017, the City of Bothell purchased the Wayne Golf Course and discontinued golf there while offering a passive use park, public parking, and off leash dogs instead. The City of Everett, with their budget shortfall, indicated recently they are re-considering whether to continue to subsidize golf at Legion and Walter Hall Golf Courses.
Why the county went out for an RFP?
The RFP for the Kayak Point Golf Course property went live to the general public on 9/17/18 – 11/1/18 through the County's purchasing website and via a wide spread press release. The RFP also went out to a national golf operator's publication, over 60 interested or potentially interested vendors and neighbors, was on the front page of The Everett Herald and covered by The Seattle Times. Informative emails to concerned neighbors and park advocates went out from 9/17/18- 11/1/-18. All of these things happened in the hope we would attract golf course operators and/or a vendor interested in utilizing the 270 acre golf course property for other outdoor or indoor activities and events.
What were the results of the RFP?
We received three (3) written proposals. One from a California company that wanted Snohomish County to pay them an annual fee of $45,000 plus $1500 per month for accounting services, lease fifty (50) golf carts, and purchase, maintain, and repair other golf carts and all maintenance equipment. The second proposal received was from a local golf course operator of one golf course. The third proposal was from a disc golf operator. We asked the second and third proposers to present their business plan and strategy to the RFP Evaluation Committee and to the Snohomish County Parks, Recreation & Tourism Director. The Parks Director determined that neither standalone proposals were finically sustainable but did like several components of their proposals related to upgrading the restaurant, offering special events, and outdoor activities, etc.
Will any change affect surrounding property values?
The change shouldn't affect the surrounding property values even if the property is utilized as a public park. Property values around the nation have shown to increase 20% or more when near or adjacent to a public park.
What is the future of this property?
We are hoping with the next RFP to attract proposals from vendors interested in upgrading and improving the restaurant, scheduling or providing space for weddings, receptions, and other outdoor activities such as disc golf, cyclo-cross, equestrian events, etc.
The next RFP is currently scheduled to go out on or near February 22, 2019.
Will a change to the property need to go to a vote of the Council?
Parks will conduct at least one public meeting with the neighbors at the golf course club house and invite comments to the county council when a determination(s) has been made for the short or long term plans for the property.


Adductor canal (AC) nerve block is a commonly used modality for postoperative pain control after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). When the adductor canal is viewed by ultrasound, the femoral artery and femoral vein can easily be identified, however, the nerve that is to be blocked is often not visible. For this reason, the femoral artery is used as a landmark for the block. There currently are no studies examining the optimal placement of the nerve block catheter relative to the femoral artery in the canal. The goal of this study will be to examine the relationship between nerve catheter tip location relative to femoral artery within the adductor canal for continuous AC nerve blocks. The investigators specifically will compare postoperative pain as well as incidence of vascular puncture during the procedure and time to complete the procedure for two different catheter locations.
This will be a single-center, randomized, controlled investigation. Consenting adults undergoing unilateral total knee arthroplasty with a planned adductor canal perineural catheter will be offered enrollment. Study inclusion will be proposed to eligible patients prior to surgery. If a patient desires study participation, written, informed consent will be obtained using a current UCSD IRB-approved ICF. Selection for inclusion will not be based on gender, race, or socioeconomic status.
Following written, informed consent, we will record baseline anthropomorphic information. All subjects will have a peripheral intravenous (IV) catheter inserted, standard noninvasive monitors applied, supplemental oxygen administered via a nasal cannula or face mask, and positioned supine. Midazolam and fentanyl will be titrated for patient comfort, while ensuring that patients remain responsive to verbal cues. The ultrasound will be placed to visualize the short axis (cross-section) of the adductor canal. If both sites (above femoral artery versus between femoral artery and vein) are acceptable for catheter insertion, the subject will be randomized using a computer-generated list (blocks of 8) to one of two treatment groups in a 1:1 ratio using sealed, opaque, consecutively numbered envelopes: (1) above femoral artery vs (2) between femoral artery and vein.
Catheter insertion will adhere to current UCSD standard-of-care. The only difference for subjects participating in the study will be that the specific catheter insertion location will be determined randomly, instead of the physician simply choosing him/herself. All catheters will be placed by a regional anesthesia fellow under the direct supervision and guidance of a regional anesthesia attending. All catheters will be placed using standard UCSD perineural catheter techniques.
"Above-the-artery": The needle will be directed below the nerve to about five o'clock of the artery. The needle will then be advanced to twelve o'clock of the artery while opening the adductor canal space with saline until adequate opening of the canal is realized. At that point, the catheter is placed above the artery.
"Between-the-artery-and-vein": The needle will be directed above the nerve and placed at one o'clock of the artery. Then the needle will be positioned at about six o'clock of the artery and advanced between the femoral artery and vein with simultaneous pressure until the adductor canal opens appropriately. The perineural catheter will be placed between the artery and vein.
Saline (10 mL) will be administered via the needle to dilate the space where the catheter is to be inserted. A flexible non-stimulating perineural catheter will be inserted 3-5 cm past the needle tip; and the needle withdrawn over the catheter. A 30 mL bolus of lidocaine 2% with 1:400,000 of epinephrine will then be administered through the catheter.
Intraoperatively, patients may receive a general and/or neuraxial anesthetic that would be determined by the intraoperative anesthesia provider. Additional boluses of 10 mL 2% lidocaine with epinephrine may be given, if needed, via the perineural catheter.
Perineural infusion: An infusion pump will be attached to each subject's perineural catheter. The pump will provide ropivacaine 0.2% at 6 mL/h and a 4 mL patient-controlled bolus with a 30-minute lockout.
Data collection: All data collection will be through standard UCSD nursing/therapy electronic medical record notes for the day following surgery.
Primary endpoint: The primary endpoint will be the average pain on post operative day 1 following surgery as measured on a numeric rating scale (0-10, 0=no pain, 10=worst imaginable pain) during the time periods of 08:00-24:00.
Secondary endpoints: Other data collected will include: (1) total procedure duration (from needle-in to needle-out), (2) total opioid consumption on postoperative day 1, (3) worst pain score measured on a numeric rating scale, (4) number of intra-procedural vascular punctures, (5) total local anesthetic infused in 24 hours following surgery, and (6) distance ambulated on postoperative day 1 with first session of physical therapy.
The primary analysis will utilize the Wilcoxon Rank Sum test. The mean postoperative day 1 pain scores following adductor canal catheter placement for total knee arthroplasty is 4.12 with standard deviation = 1.74.2 The null hypothesis is that the "above-the-artery" group is inferior to the "between-the-artery-and-vein" group. The alternative hypothesis is that the "above-the-artery" group in non-inferior to the "between-the-artery-and-vein" group. Assuming a non-inferiority limit of 1.5, power = 0.80, two-side alpha = 0.05, we will require 17 patients in each group (total = 34). To account for dropouts, we plan to recruit 20 patients in each group, totaling 40 patients all together.

Joyce Mujuru – #Zimbabwe President Mugabe Knows Who Burnt My Husband Solomon to Death
December 8, 2016	News
FORMER Vice-President Joice Mujuru has claimed President Robert Mugabe is aware of the circumstances leading to the death of her husband, Solomon, in an inferno that continues to confound the nation five years after the country's first black army commander died.
By PAIDAMOYO MUZULU/SILAS NKALA
DURING HAPPIER TIMES . . . Former Vice-President Joice Mujuru talks to President Robert Mugabe at the Zanu PF conference in 2013
Mujuru, who now leads the opposition Zimbabwe People First (ZimPF), made the allegations in an interview with South African television station, eNCA, insisting that the Zanu PF leader still owes her an explanation on what transpired on the fateful night.
"He (Mugabe) can't tell me he was not aware or he's not aware of what happened to my husband," she said.
Mujuru said her position was backed by what Mugabe has been saying, particularly after her unceremonious expulsion from Zanu PF last year.
"With what he (Mugabe) said, can he excuse himself or really absolve himself? Why did he mention those things in the first place?" she said.
It was not clear what Mujuru was referring to, although there have insinuations Solomon and MDC-T leader, Morgan Tsvangirai were on the verge of a coalition.
Solomon's charred remains were recovered from his Ruzambo Farm in Beatrice on August 15, 2011, amid speculation he could have been assassinated by his political foes within the ruling party, who thought he was a kingmaker in the Zanu PF succession matrix.
However, a judicial inquest, whose findings the Mujuru family has disputed, ruled out foul play in the general's death.
Mujuru, in her interview broadcast on Tuesday, said her husband's crime was accepting to be part of a Zanu PF succession committee set up by the politburo to choose Mugabe's successor.
The committee, according to Mujuru, was chaired by the late Vice-President John Nkomo and had Defence minister Sydney Sekeramayi and her husband as members.
The late former politburo member, Cephas Msipa in the past also spoke about the succession committee, saying Mugabe appointed Vice-President Mnangagwa, Joice and then party chairman, Nkomo to identify the President's heir.
The committee, Msipa revealed, died a natural death before even meeting once, as Mugabe changed goalposts and blocked discussions over the issue.
Mujuru admitted that Zanu PF rigged previous elections by using soldiers and traditional leaders to instil fear and force the electorate to vote for the ruling party.
"The kraal-heads whipped the people to go and vote for Zanu PF. Asking the soldiers to run Operation Maguta was wrong. Why ask soldiers to leave their cantonments to go and run a political programme?" she said.
Operation Maguta was a government programme implemented in 2004 to supplement agricultural produce in the face of a drought.
Asked why she had kept quiet for so long, while the ruling party continued with its human rights abuses, Mujuru blamed her cultural upbringing, which she said forbade her from questioning decisions made by her superiors.
"Probably, it's something from our culture that you respect a person to such a level where the majority of the people suffer," she said.
"That should end. Even if a person is as old as the President, he has to be told to his face."
The ZimPF leader also spoke about the early 1980s Gukurahundi massacres, saying her party was working on a programme to bring closure to the matter, although she ruled out frogmarching the perpetrators to the International Criminal Court to face genocide charges.
Asked if her government would compensate Gukurahundi victims, Mujuru said she would consult before making a decision.
She also claimed that she had met some Gukurahundi victims and traditional leaders in Matabeleland, but her claims were dismissed by the Dumiso Dabengwa-led Zapu party.
Zapu deputy spokesperson, Iphithule Maphosa yesterday said Mujuru might have mistaken victims of the 2005 Murambatsvina clean-up campaign staying at Ngozi Mine for Gukurahundi victims.
"Well, just a piece of advice, Mujuru: The people you visited at Ngozi Mine in Bulawayo are not Gukurahundi victims, they are victims of Murambatsvina as committed by your government leaving thousands, if not millions, homeless and destitute," he said. "That you met one ex-ZPRA cadre there does not turn those people into Gukurahundi victims, but they remain Murambatsvina victims."

From 21st April 2015 Google started to change the way it indexes websites by boosting the ranking of mobile-friendly pages on mobile search results. According to Google's own research, Internet use on Mobile devices accounts for more than 50% of all traffic. So it makes complete sense that when a user searches the internet on their mobile phone, they are first shown the websites that are designed to be viewed on mobile.
Should your website have failed the 'mobile-friendly' test, then rest assured that you are not alone. Research by The Search Agency UK discovered that only 32 of the FTSE 100 websites use the industry best practice 'responsive' web design (where the scale of the website is adjusted automatically to the size of the screen it is to be viewed on). A further 39 FTSE 100 websites have no mobile-friendly site at all, meaning their search ranking on mobile devices will be dramatically reduced as Google's changes progress.
Google is, however, quick to reassure webmasters that the damage will not be lasting. Google has stated that as soon as a website becomes mobile-friendly, it will automatically process the site, and the newly designed pages will be re-ranked accordingly.
If you need some help to optimise your online presence for mobiles, then we have a team of experts to hand who can transform your website using WordPress. WordPress already powers more than 17% of the web, and gives you the ability to have anything from a simple website, to blogs, to complex portals and enterprise websites.

Data East was an early game developer and publisher which went belly up in 2003. I've not had a lot of fond memories of their titles quite frankly. I recall, even at a young age, associating their logo with games that were just not quite as fun as their competition for one reason or another.

Nothing better embodies the advancement in computer processing technology like video games. Unlike spreadsheets, web surfing and page layout – all of which are, of course, more efficient on a new computer – video games really get the processor cycles moving.
The adventure game has been around for decades. It's certainly among the most mature of game genres and has undergone just enough advancement over the years to keep the formula fresh, while maintaining a sense of familiarity.
