Q: Как спрятать секретное число от декомпиляторщиков в Android приложении? Сейчас в моем клиентском приложении лежит очень секретное число. Лежит оно в ресурсах, strings.xml, надо срочно что-то придумать, чтобы ковыряльщики-хакеры не смогли ничего найти, или хотя бы приостановить их злодеяния :) Число это состоит из 50 цифр, передается серверу строкой как API ключ. Я придумал следующее:
Создать статический метод, возвращающий это число путем нехитрых операций. Надо будет сделать вызовы других методов из разных библиотек, даже модифицировать библиотеки поддержки, причем сделать большие переплетения из одной библиотеки в другую. Пускай для еще большего усложнения эти библиотеки будут написаны на C++.
Или есть более грамотное решение? Я вот замечал где-то что апктул не умеет декомпилить boolean, там что-то вроде 0 и 1 получается, точно не помню.
Вообщем, что можно придумать? А то вот такие манипуляции каждый раз при запросе на сервер длительны будут, а если при старте игры его получать и хранить в переменной, то вроде есть какие-то утилиты для просмотра ячеек dalvik памяти приложения.

A: Принято считать, что всё, что находится в клиенте – раскрыто и поддаётся подделке.
Если ваш сценарий предполагает запросы к API какого-то третьего сервиса, то либо смиритесь с раскрытием API ключа (он ведь передаётся в запросах в открытом виде и его можно сниффером снять), или, как вариант, проксируйте запросы к сервису через свои прокси, дописывающие API ключ налету.

A:
апктул не умеет декомпилить boolean, там что-то вроде 0 и 1 получается, точно не помню

Это не "не умеет", 0 = false, 1 = true, что еще надо.

Лежит оно в ресурсах, strings.xml

Это пожалуй самое неудачное, Apktool это первое с чего начинают, даже самые недалекие, которые не пойдут дальше и вообще программировать толком не умеют.

А то вот такие манипуляции каждый раз при запросе на сервер длительны будут

Вдобавок, могут даже навредить, HTTP хорошо сниффится, это тоже начальный уровень реверс-инжиниринга.

Вообщем, что можно придумать?

В основном эффективны два способа:

*

*Искажение информации (дезинформация). Изобразите, что это число вовсе не так важно и вовсе не то, что они ищут, а что-то неинтересное.

*Уменьшение количества информации. Чем меньше знает разведчик, тем дальше он от цели. Была задача, где приложение работало с неким сервером, а еще должно было слать на некий сервер данные при попытке взлома, так я сделал, чтобы это был один и тот же сервер, и данные слались POST-запросом на корневой URL (с index.php), в котором такой запрос отличался от других и обрабатывался иначе, и поди разберись в том же сниффере где какой запрос и что за что отвечает, а если бы было "acrbtrverbtr.ru/eih8eh89e8hvev.php" - то сразу бы бросалось в глаза, это не лучше чем назвать прямо "security-server.ru/report.php".

есть какие-то утилиты для просмотра ячеек dalvik памяти приложения

Есть, отладчики называются, но отладка уже далеко не всем доступна, в отличие от декомпиляции JD-Gui и Fernflower'ом, и дизассемблирования в IDA Pro.

A: Есть несколько вариантов разной степени продвинутости и применимости:

*

*Зашифровать ваш API key, но это только кажется, что решает проблему, потому, что пароль для шифрования все равно будет лежать в коде/ресурсах, так что история превращается в рекурсивную сказочку про попа с собакой. Видел варианты с глубиной рекурсии до 3-х :)

*Можно конечно в качестве пароля использовать идентификатор устройства - проблема в этом случае возникает с развертыванием вашей аппы. Надо заранее знать deviceId и сгенерировать для него шифрованный API key - то есть имеет крайне ограниченную применимость. Правда, если речь идет о корпоративных устройствах для ограниченного круга лиц - вполне работает

*Еще способ - хранить ключи во внешнем сервере и при первом запуске приложения получать их оттуда (требуется https и какой-нибудь небольшой облачный сервисочек с высунытым наружу Rest'ом)

*Другой вариант использовать коммерческие обфускаторы, типа DexGuard, которые в отличие от ProGuard умеют также и шифровать код.

A: В статье «Обзор способов защиты программных продуктов на Java» можно почитать по основным способам защиты приложения.
Выдержка из конца статьи:

Сценарий защиты
Подводя итог хотел бы вкратце обрисовать сценарий достаточно эфективой борьбы против декомпиляции:

*

*Предварительно поместить в готовый java код несколько глухих классов.

*Откомпилировать их и запихать в отделный архив.

*Затем «затемнить» java код используя вспомогательные средства, например, Crema.

*Отдельно реализовать классы которые будут храниться в native методе и получаться при помощи механизма схожего с ClassLoader.

*Откомпилировать их.

*Откомпилировать остальной java код.

*Применить метод изменения байт-кода.

*Запаковать остальной java код.

*Зашифровать классы которые храниться в native методе, используя любой алгоритм, например RSA и поместить его в native код.

*Реализовать в native методе проверку целостности архива с java кодом

*Откомпилировать native код.

*Удалить архив с глухими классами.

*Создать лицензию.

*Теперь всё это можно запускать.

A: Извращение, но как вариант: ваш ключ, превратить в байтовый массив, который в свою очередь попробовать превратить в Java-байт код (получится билиберда, но вдруг реально), а потом с помощью ASM в своем приложении инжектить его куда-нибудь и обратно превращать в ключ. Таким образом у вас явно не будет ключа, а разборки с ASM еще пусть попробуют провернуть ваши злоумышленники.

AMANDA JANE NEEDLES ARE BACK ORDERED UNTIL APRIL. Apparently There is a problem shipping them from England??????
Replacement Needles for Amanda Jane, READ, Stanley, Dr Joe's, Pullen, Newell and Durand Pleaters.
Pleater Needles are BRAND SPECIFIC. It is very important to buy the needles that match the brand of pleater you own. And in the case of the Read, be sure to know how many rows that your pleater has Read 16 row pleater needles will not work on a 24 row Read Pleater and vice versa. Read 24 row pleaters made before 1985 have different size needles than the current 24 row Read. Needles for that pleater are no longer available.
Some companies which made pleaters have gone out of business and their needles are no longer available. to fill that need Ellen McCarn makes a general purpose 16 and 24 row needle which is very good to use for pleaters for which brand specific needles are no longer available like Durand, Newell, Pullen and Dr Joe's.
Amanda Jane needles fit all 3 sizes of Amanda Jane pleaters.
NOTE: I will not except exchanges or returns for incorrectly ordered needles because once they are out of my hands I can not guarantee that they have not been used and are not bent.
General purpose needles for the Stanley Pleater. Stanley is out of business and genuine Stanley needles are not available.
Based on this I have set a flat shipping rate of $3.00 for any amount of needles shipped within the United States. If you are an international customer please request a custom order so I can add the appropriate postage for your country.
Thank you so much! It came super fast which allowed me to replace my broken needle and get the project back in the works. Thank you!
Great service and prompt shipping!


I needed this but couldn't find it so I created it. I am open to suggestions to improve the code.
'           from person to person.
'           of 5 to 30 flashes per second (Hertz).
'           2. Define the length of the strobe effect in seconds.
'           the effect can be applied.
'           private or commercial applications without obligation.
'           This code may not be resold by itself or as part of a collection.
I actually know a few things, just not all of them.
I have similar flashing message code as part of my Attention Seeking database. However, in my example I just toggle the message visibility on and off using a timer event.
I haven't tried the code but you seem to be swopping fore colour and back colour repeatedly. That will certainly get users' attention and perhaps irritate the hell out of your users!
Can I suggest you supply a quick demo of the effect.
Here's a basic interface to make it happen. Open the form and play.
I've had a quick play but not looked at the code as yet.
You didn't include a colour selector after all.
As I have a colour converter app, I've attached it & also included it in the form.
It seems to work but not as smoothly as it does normally. Perhaps some clashing code?
Also can't work out why the file is so big. Is it just the embedded image?
Last edited by isladogs; 10-04-2018 at 03:51 PM.
Double click the Color 1/2 field to show the color chooser. Click the ok button in the color chooser to set it. The number will be the value and the color will become the backcolor of the color fields.
Perhaps a good idea to state that you need to double click on the form....!
Nifty little piece of code. I like it.
What i don't like is the extensive use of goto, other than for error handling.
In the early days in GWBasic or BasicA there was some enhancement called GOSUB.
I would use three separate subs. FlashFull, FlashBack and FlashForward.
But the above solution works fine.
I didn't even know GoSub | Return existed as an option.
However, I agree totally about moving all of FlashForward/FlashBack/FlashFull into three separate procedures.
It would also be a good idea to group all control types with the same result in the same statement.

Beausoleil Island, ON
Beausoleil Island Lighthouse
Two pairs of day beacons were established at the opening of navigation in 1899 to help guide mariners into Severn Sound and its communities of Penetanguishene, Midland, Victoria Harbour, and Port McNicoll. The first pair consisted of a fifteen-foot-pole with horizontal slatwork placed on the northern end of Brébeuf Island and a similar structure with a height of twenty-four feet that was erected on the western shore of Beausoleil Island. These daymarks were separated by 2,400 feet and when aligned guided mariners between the southern end of Giants Tomb Island and Sawlog Point on the mainland. The second pair of day beacons featured a structure near Sucker Creek Point and a second near Midland Point that helped mariners pass safely between the southern end of Beausoleil Island and the mainland.
These day beacons served for just over a year, as in 1900, the Department of Marine replaced them with range lights. Gin Island Lighthouse, a square, wooden tower with sloping sides, a polygonal iron lantern, and an attached dwelling, was relocated roughly two kilometres north to Brébeuf Island to serve as the front range light, and a square, forty-two-foot-tall tower that displayed a light from a window near its top was placed on Beausoleil Island to serve as the rear range light. Both lighthouses displayed a fixed white catoptric light at a height of forty feet above the water.
In 1915, the current fifty-two-foot-tall, skeletal tower with an enclosed upper section replaced the wooden tower on Beausoleil Island, and the illuminant used in the range lights was changed to petroleum vapour burned under an incandescent mantle. This change in illuminant coupled with the installation of new reflectors increased the strength of the lights, an important improvement due to the long distance at which the range was used.
Rear range on Beausoleil Island in 1915 with remnant of original tower
William Baxter, the first keeper of Brébeuf Range Lights, had been keeper of Gin Rock Lighthouse for fifteen years before it was relocated to Brébeuf Island. Gin Rock Lighthouse commenced operation in 1878, and just one other keeper served there before Baxter.
Keeper Baxter looked after the light for thirty-one years on Brébeuf Island, and Clifford Paradis, his replacement, matched this, serving from 1931 until electricity was cabled to the island in 1962 and the light was automated. Mary Paradis was happy when her husband landed the job as keeper, since it was the middle of the Great Depression and employment was hard to come by. Living on the rocky island and keeping the light was hard work, as the couple had to cut blocks of ice and store them in an ice house before the arrival of a propane refrigerator and they had to patrol the beach and surrounding water for driftwood to feed their cook stove. Mary tried her hand at gardening during their second season on the island, but the first strong storm swept her green onions and other plantings out to sea.
Brébeuf Island was a lonely place for Joanne, the couples' daughter. One summer Joanne suffered from a persistent fever, which Sam Baxter, the brother of the previous keeper, diagnosed as acute loneliness. Sam's hunch proved correct, as when Joanne was taken ashore to visit relatives, her fever vanished. A frightening experience for Joanne was watching through the kitchen window at dusk as her father disappeared in the troughs of waves while making his wave over to light the rear light on Beausoleil Island. Even though island life had its drawbacks, Joanne hated to leave her parents and board with guardians on shore when the school year started. Even after the family left the island, Mary and Joanne continued to feel anxiety each year as Labour Day and the start of the school year approached.
After the light was automated in 1962, Tiny Weiss, a former manager of the local power office, was allowed to use the lighthouse on Brébeuf Island as a cottage for twenty years. After this, the government tendered the lighthouse out to the public for five-year-periods, and Ken Mackie, who operated a marina in Honey Harbour, was the first to obtain the lighthouse under this program. Shortly after the Mackie family made their first trip out to their island home, a son went out to use the outhouse and came running back to the lighthouse exclaiming that there were ducklings in the toilet. Ducks often nested in the outhouse during the Mackie's time on the island as it offered shelter and was on a high point on the island that quickly dried out in the spring.
Peter Shirriff tendered the lighthouse from 1987 to 1997, but then due to increasing boat traffic in the area, the Coast Guard took back control of the lighthouse and used it as a station for its Inshore Rescue Boat (IRB) Service. Each summer, the Canadian Coast Guard hires students through the Federal Student Work Experience Program to help staff their IRB bases.
In the 1920s, as wealthy tourists were buying up islands in Georgian Bay at an alarming rate, local residents petitioned the federal government to set aside Beausoleil Island, the last large island available in the Thirty Thousand Islands, as a national park. Georgian Bay Islands National Park was created in 1929, and today the park encompasses more than fifty-nine islands. Visitors can take a ferry from Honey Harbour to Beausoleil Island and hike to Brébeuf Rear Range Lighthouse from where a distant view of Brébeuf Island and its lighthouse can be had.
Brébeuf Rear Range Light has been discontinued, and the front range light now operates as Brébeuf Island Lighthouse. Due to its architectural value and historical associations, Brébeuf Island Lighthouse was declared a Recognized Federal Heritage Building in 2007.
Head Keepers: William J. Baxter (1900 – 1931), Clifford Paradis (1931 – 1962).

A sensational exhibition by esteemed Indian painter Nilima Sheikh has just wrapped up at the Art Institute of Chicago. The exhibition, entitled "Each Night Put Kashmir in Your Dreams", ran from March 8 – May 18, 2014. It consisted of eight varied scrolling paintings Ms. Sheikh created over the past decade, each of which served to juxtapose the tension and violence that characterises modern Kashmir with its uniquely "magical" historical past, all the while doting on its timeless cultural wealth.
The poem "I See Kashmir from New Delhi at Midnight" by Kashmiri-American poet Agha Shahid Ali served as the inspiration for the exhibition's title and content, as well provoking Ms. Sheikh's initial foray into Kashmiri past and modern history. Excerpts from Mr. Ali's poems can be found in the scrolls alongside a multitude of other inspirational texts, intertwined with sensuous glimpses of Persian miniatures and folkloric scenes.
The pieces in this series echo themes seen in much of her work, which has recently focused on feminine subjectivity in history but which also places emphasis on controversial issues in South Asian culture.
Ms. Sheikh was born in New Delhi in 1945 and obtained degrees in history and fine art; she also taught painting for a time before delving into her own artistic endeavours, which are all in painted form on various types of surfaces and often using traditional materials such as tempera and wasli paper. She has also worked on several theatre design and children's book projects and has exhibited extensively, both in India and internationally.
Ms. Sheikh does not appear to have her own website. For more information on the Art Institute of Chicago, please click here. To read Agha Shahid Ali's poem "I See Kashmir from New Delhi at Midnight", please click here. To read a review of "Each Night Put Kashmir in Your Dreams", click here.

American - Actor Born: December 21, 1977
I'm an incredibly intelligent, insightful human being.
A. J. Bowen
Human Being Being Human Intelligent
As an actor, the ambition is to play interesting characters. And in the indie genre world, the budgets are low. That allows me, as an actor, not to have a financial value behind my name, to justify me being in these bigger parts for these types of movies.
Me World Value Ambition
To be fair, I don't think it's a plague to say I have the misfortune of making movies for a living.
Think Movies Living Say
I did four movies where I gained, like, fifty pounds. I had curly hair, and I had all of this facial hair. I had put on all this weight for these movies, and I did four or five of them back-to-back. Then I cut the weight and I got fit again. I cut my beard and I took away the mustache, and people were like, 'What are you doing?'
You People Hair Beard
A lot of cable television is shot on a single camera. Our eyes are more trained to that. It takes the camera off the crane, away from observing the action, to becoming a character in the story along with everyone else. People are getting used to that.
Eyes Character People Action
To have a part that is written for you certainly helps an actor.

I love '80s horror.

Total synthesis of [L40I, C90A, C109A]-human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 protease
Kenta Teruya, Toru Kawakami, Kenichi Akaji, Saburo Aimoto
[L40I, C90A, C109A]-Human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 protease, which contains 125 amino acid residues, was synthesized by means of the thioester method. The construction of the backbone of this protease, involved the synthesis of three building blocks, using the Boc solid-phase method. To suppress epimerization during the first segment coupling between Phe and Arg by the thioester method, DMF was employed as a solvent for the reaction. The amount of D-Phe-containing coupling product in the total product was less than 6% and the desired product was isolated by reversed-phase HPLC in 59% yield. The synthetic product showed enzymatic activities comparable to those reported for the [L40I, C90A, C109A]-human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 protease, prepared by an expression method.

Studyflix is an e-learning start-up – by students for students.
Studyflix.de strives to explain complex subjects through simple and practical videos – free of charge.
Their animated and professionally designed learning videos convey knowledge relevant to the disciplines of economics, mechanical engineering, industrial engineering, (economic) computer science, electrical engineering, mathematics and chemistry.
All in all, nearly 2,000 videos provide more than 100 hours of concentrated knowledge.
Essential for Studyflix is high availability of the web application, for content to be easily findable by their target audience, and to be conveniently accessible on the go.
In September 2018, Makandra was commissioned with an overall technical redevelopment and visual re-design of Studyflix. The desired launch date was mid-January 2019.
Working together with the Studyflix team, makandra analyzed all new requirements and processes in a multi-day workshop, remodeled workflows and conceptually redesigned the entire web application.
During development, our developers relied on Ruby on Rails in an agile project environment. This way, stories could be implemented interactively and quickly, one at a time.
For the development of the design, Dominik Weiss was won as an experienced graphic designer and user experience expert. The website has been developed with responsive design in mind and can be used on mobile devices without any issues.
Transfer of the customer's existing data into a new data structure and the integration of a video transcoding CDN (Content Delivery Network) succeeded smoothly. Our automated tests help to keep the application error-free even with future development, thereby enabling a constantly high pace of development.
Within a very short timeframe, makandra has managed to translate customer requirements 1 to 1 into a state of the art web application. Studyflix' target launch date of January 2019 was not only met by makandra, but results have even been delivered 4 weeks ahead of schedule.
An up-to-date e-learning platform that catches the eye.
Studyflix' new look has been designed specifically to meet the needs of its users, every aspect of its design is functionally and visually focussed on the requirements of a great user experience. Also, all of the existing content has been migrated successfully. The new application was specially developed with search engine optimization in mind and the target group should have no problems finding their desired content.
makandra GmbH accompanied us on the relaunch of the e-learning platform Studyflix - only about three months passed from joint development of the concept to the relaunch of the complete platform. In addition to the quick implementation, the quality of the work was excellent and the cooperation was always trusting. We can definitely recommend makandra!
Availability and safety of all data was a major requirement for the client. The entire environment is running on makandra's high-availability infrastructure in a data center in Germany. By consistently configuring all components for redundancy, we make sure all data is safe and that the application is always available.


Most adults who choose Invisalign do so because they want to straighten crooked teeth but don't need or want to commit to metal braces to do the job. That's why Invisalign is a perfect orthodontic solution for many adults with mild to moderate tooth misalignment.
Aside from a more balanced and harmonious smile, however, there are numerous benefits to Invisalign treatment in Woodinville, WA.
If you are unhappy with your crooked teeth, it probably affects your self-confidence and your ability to interact comfortably around others. But when you know your straight smile looks great, it helps you feel great, and your confidence soars.

"Everyone with an interest in Johnson is very much in debt to Boswell not only for the years of devotion he invested in the study of Johnson's life, but for the uncanny skill with which he conveyed the quality of Johnson's personality and his effect on the people about him. If there had been no Boswell, Johnson would have been one of the most famous names in English literature; but that he has become a household name is due to the chance that brought Boswell into his company Boswell is the sniffing bloodhound who will follow the scent of individuality into whatever territory it leads him. The fascination of their dialogue, that dialogue of mind, heart and voice round which Boswell organized his great Life, is that it is not merely between two very different men but between two epochs. In its pages, Romantic Europe speaks to Renaissance Europe, and is answered" (Wain, 229).

In September 2015 I had the pleasure of helping two great friends decorate their wedding. A fun, easygoing early fall wedding, with bikes, pups, and the BEST music! For someone with no desire to get married myself, I have a super obsession with wedding decor, and I love helping out friends with their wedding flowers, backdrops, centrepieces....everything. Plus, it's fun to see my wedding products in use! For Dom and Bo's wedding, I created the bouquets, centrepieces, photo displays and cake decoration. Shoutout to Scarlet O'Neill for the beautiful photos!
The Enoch Turner Schoolhouse located in downtown East Toronto is a gorgeous rustic venue. The space is so simple and perfect, so not much decor is required.
Instax mini cameras and a photo display board was super fun, and keeps guests busy in between the ceremony and reception!
We kept it simple with daisies, green button poms, and baby's breath for the flowers. Filling all those bottles is a pain, but worth it for the cute factor.
Our bamboo table numbers are really eye catching! I love how they added to the simplicity of the white and green settings.
Easy cake decor 101 - just add flowers and a topper! We used the "best day ever" woodlands topper. Full disclosure, I made a beautiful custom topper for Dom and Bo that I then forgot at my studio! Luckily we had this as backup.
We kept it super simple for Bo's bouquet - the green and white of the daisies and green buttons works so well - especially at this venue.
Don't forget the puppy kisses!


Technology is moving at an express pace. Things that seemed only imaginable and near impossible decades ago have not only come into being but have also found their way into the hands of common man.
Our realities are defined by our perception of what we see, what we feel and smell. Our senses guide us to experience what we know as our reality. In the event that our senses were fed an illusion, our reality would then be defined by that illusion. In virtual reality (VR) a make believes 3-dimensional world is created with the help of computer technology. A user interacts with the virtual world with a head gear. In this virtual world, the user can operate objects and execute various actions.
Augmented reality (AR) the brother from another mother, is similar to virtual reality and yet different. Here, images are created within applications that blend with the real world in such a way so as to augment one another. In AR the user engages with the virtual content in the real world and is able to differentiate between the two.
Both AR and VR serve to heighten the experience for the user.
The main difference lies in the fact that while using AR you will be in touch with the real world whereas in VR this does not happen. When an individual uses VR he is disconnected from the real world while being submerged in a fictitious environment. VR basically creates a reality of its own that is entirely computer generated. Contrastingly, augmented reality amplifies the experience by an addition of virtual components like graphics, digital images, as a new level of contact with the real world. The VR mainly comprises of a head gear and two controls (joysticks).The headgear has a lens and the volume controls while the joysticks are used for navigation. Each controller has a trigger, touch pad, and a grip. The head gear is of two types –mobile and tethered. VR is used in gaming, entertainment and 3D movies.
In Augmented reality, technology is used to superimpose information onto the world that we see and hear rather than being immersed in a virtual world. Augmented reality is basically an addition to the already existing reality.
AR is used in televised sports games to display score overlays, photos and text messages on mobiles. AR application also includes GPS on phones to identify one's location and gesture recognition.AR was also used in Pokemon GO. Tech industries are also using AR for radical things with holograms (HoloLens).
Various challenges still remain for large scale adoption of virtual and augmented reality. However, with the ongoing developments, the future of VR and AR seem very bright.

The cradle of Spanish and Portuguese Jewish civilization was Western Europe. After first emerging in KK Talmud Torah in Venice, it spread to the twin pillars of Amsterdam and London, which ultimately eclipsed the mother community in power and prestige. From these early nodes, Western Sephardim fanned out across England, France, the Low Countries, maritime Germany, northern Italy, and the Adriatic coast of Croatia. In many cases, they were the first Jews in their host countries, which paved the way for Ashkenazim to settle in lands formerly closed to them. Tragically, the Continental communities were irrevocably damaged in the Holocaust, although a handful still survive as living communities today.

The Southern California Chapter board of directors kicked off the new year with our inaugural board meeting on January 17.
The Southern California Chapter board of directors kicked off the new year with our inaugural board meeting on January 17. Our 17-member board was joined by Mary-Margaret Armstrong, HBA staff director of chapter development, as we geared up for another exciting year. The bar is very high this year, as our chapter was honored as the 2010 HBA Chapter Excellence Award, and our past president, Laura Clark, won the Council of Chapter Presidents award.
The broad range of programs offered by our chapter continues to be at the heart of our success, and our programs committee has exciting plans along the theme of "the leadership edge." Stay tuned for more details.
The kickoff board meeting ended with some fun as well. I have been traveling throughout Mexico recently, and brought back a piñata filled with sweets and treats for the board. Its 'disassembly' was a fun stress reliever for the group!
Please go to the board tab to see the complete list of all your board members and our roles. We are always interested in your ideas, so feel free to contact us throughout the year.
See you at a future program!

Port-Gentil je luka i drugi po veličini grad u Gabonu. Sjedište je provincije Ogooue-Maritime i departmana Bendje. Centar je gabonske industrije drva i nafte, po čemu je svjetski poznat. Leži na otoku Mandji, na ušću rijeke Ogooué u Atlantski ocean, 350 km jugozapadno od glavnog grada, Librevillea.

Grad su 1873. osnovali Francuzi. Krajem 19. stoljeća bio je baza istraživača de Brazze za njegove pohode u unutrašnjost Afrike. Nakon što je 1894. uspostavljena carinska ispostava, luka je postala važan centar trgovine gumom, bjelokošću i drvom. Od 1900. godine nosi ime Port-Gentil, prema francuskom kolonijalnom upravitelju Émileu Gentilu. Nagli razvoj doživljava nakon što je tvrtka Elf 1920-ih započela s eksploatacijom nafte u ovom području. Danas se tu nalazi rafinerija nafte, a dobar dio stanovništva čine radnici u naftnoj industriji iz cijeloga svijeta.

Port-Gentil poznat je, osim po naftnoj industriji, i po činjenici da je jedan od najskupljih gradova svijeta. Lokalne znamenitosti uključuju bogat noćni život, terene za golf, zoološki vrt te brojne hotele i kasina.

Prema popisu iz 1993. godine, Port-Gentil je imao 79.225 stanovnika.

Tommy Robinson sent back to jail for contempt of court
He's asked Donald Trump to grant him asylum in the US and claims he is just a citizen journalist and a victim of political persecution.
As English Defence League founder Tommy Robinson was jailed for contempt of court he told Sky news his life was at risk behind bars.
But a judge found he encouraged "vigilante action" as he filmed men accused of sexually exploiting young girls during their trial.
Sky's senior correspondent Ian Woods reports.

A three-judge panel of a federal appeals court said Friday that young climate activists established that government policies worsened climate change but dismissed the activists' case seeking to force policy changes, ruling it was beyond the court's power.
In a 2-1 decision, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals panel accepted the argument that climate change had accelerated in recent years and that government policies encouraged fossil fuel use even as authorities knew it could have disastrous consequences. But the Constitution doesn't empower courts to force such sweeping changes to policies at several federal agencies, the majority ruled.

Millions in legal expenses for Sen. Bob Menendez's corruption scandal
The New Jersey Democrat spent $5.16 million on his defense, according to his legal expense fund filing with the Senate Office of Public Records. The trust was formed in 2014 at the beginning of Menendez's legal woes. It allows people to make contributions to Menendez so he can fight his legal battles associated with the Senate Select Committee on Ethics inquiries and allegations of federal law violations associated with his role as a senator.

Donald Trump's chief economic adviser on Friday stopped short of endorsing the president's repeated claim that the U.S. economy is at its strongest point in the country's history.
"In history? I think it'll rank up there, yes," Lawrence Kudlow told CQ Roll Call on Friday. But he notably did not say the U.S. economy is the strongest it's ever been as his boss heads into what pollsters and strategists in both parties say could be a photo-finish election.

President Donald Trump's legal team will include former Bill Clinton prosecutors Kenneth Starr and Richard Ray and retired Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz, multiple media outlets reported Friday.
Starr investigated the sexual misconduct allegations that led to President Bill Clinton's impeachment before resigning as special counsel saying "intense politicization of the independent counsel process" had diminished public confidence in the justice system. Ray, who was a prosecutor in Starr's office, wrote the final report on the investigation after succeeding his boss.

Black Women Are At Higher Risk To Experience Weight Gain Post Menopause Research Shows
After menopause, non-Hispanic Black women are more likely to experience weight gain than non-Hispanic white women, researchers at the Rush Institute for Healthy Aging have found. The results of their study were published March 1 in the medical journal PLOS ONE.
Working in collaboration with colleagues at other leading research institutions, the Rush investigators set out to determine how weight status (a person's weight classification using standard measurements) contributes to differences in postmenopausal weight gain among non-Hispanic Black women and non-Hispanic white women.
The study included data about 70,750 white and Black women post-menopause, which was obtained from the Women's Health Initiative Observational Study, a long-term national health study funded by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute. Body mass index at baseline was used to classify women as being a normal weight, overweight, or obese class I, II or III.
"When we examined our findings within these categories of baseline weight status, non-Hispanic Black postmenopausal women who were normal weight at baseline were the most likely to gain weight in both crude and adjusted models," explains Christopher Ford, PhD, a researcher with the Rush Institute for Healthy Aging and lead author of the study. "This finding suggests that efforts to reduce the disparity in postmenopausal weight gain in non-Hispanic Blacks and non-Hispanic Whites should focus on preventing excess weight gain in non-Hispanic Black women who are normal weight at baseline."
The study found that Black women were more than 50% likely to experience a weight gain ≥10% than white women. It's findings also suggested the overall higher risk of weight gain was not due to differences in weight status alone, but rather due to other factors, including sociocultural and socioeconomic differences in addition to individual biological differences.
It explains that Black women are more likely than white women to experience lower socioeconomic positioning. This disparity can lead to a number of environmental factors contributing to weight gain, such as little access to healthy food options, health care or areas for exercise.
These findings led the researchers to conclude that efforts should be made to reduce racial disparities in obesity, which will require a focus on preventing excess weight gain in Black women at earlier life stages, particularly those younger than age 40.
"Prior studies have not looked at racial disparities in weight gain after menopause in Black and white women," says Ford. "Although excess risk of weight gain in Black women relative to white women has been observed in younger women, this may be the first study to look at racial disparities in postmenopausal weight gain."

Q: How to set animator for left to right and inverse for Multiple Screens I want to make an animation for ImageView which runs from left to right on screen and when it reached to 50% of screen, it comes back. My XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<objectAnimator xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

    android:duration="1000"
    android:propertyName="x"
    android:repeatMode="reverse"
    android:repeatCount="1"
    android:valueFrom="0"
    android:valueTo="250" >
</objectAnimator>

My application ran well on my phone but when it ran on a smaller or bigger phone, it didn't run well.
I want to use ObjectAnimator and my application min SDK API is 13. Who can help me? Thanks in advance.

A: For better structure, a dynamic approach is recommended which uses display screen width
First calculate the screen width to measure the half of the screen
    Display display = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay();
    Point point=new Point();
    display.getSize(point);
    final int width = point.x; // screen width
    final float halfW = width/2.0f; // half the width or to any value required,global to class
    ObjectAnimator lftToRgt,rgtToLft; // global to class

    // initialize the view in onCreate
    imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageButtontest);

    // set the click listener
    imageView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
               anim();// call to animate
         }
     });

Add the below function to your class and enjoy.
void anim(){
    // translationX to move object along x axis
    // next values are position value
    lftToRgt = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat( imageView,"translationX",0f,halfW )
            .setDuration(700); // to animate left to right
    rgtToLft = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat( imageView,"translationX",halfW,0f )
            .setDuration(700); // to animate right to left

    AnimatorSet s = new AnimatorSet();//required to set the sequence
    s.play( lftToRgt ).before( rgtToLft ); // manage sequence
    s.start(); // play the animation
}

Loading dock signs have a number of uses. First, it is necessary to label the individual docks as most systems will have more than one. It is also important for there to be directional signs so that drivers know where to go. In addition, it is important to display numerous safety signs such as 'Crushing Hazards' and 'No Parking'.

After activating this option with the SetupDialog or via a macro, all box elements will be saved as a polygon. The least significant bit of the most significant byte is the plexhead flag. The first most significant bit of the first byte is the sign, one means negative, 0 means positive. GDSII interpreters will either impose such a limit explicitly, or will impose an implicit limit by running out of memory during recursive operations.

Objects contained in a GDSII file are grouped by assigning numeric attributes to them including a "layer number", "datatype" or "texttype". GDSII does not have the ability to empty a polygon or create a hole.

The first is "No data present". I doubt anyone has had the chutzpah to start using it since. GDSII file instance names simplify the tracking of hierarchies within the file. Gsdii third data type is a "Two-Byte Signed Integer". A component is flattened into its geometric primitives.
This is the one that seems to stgeam never been used, so I'll describe the eight byte real in a bit more detail. The length of gdisi string is always equal to the length of the record minus the four bytes used for the record header. There is no explicitly stated limit to the level of hierarchy the degree of cell nesting ; however, most CAD programs impose a limit of around 32 levels. The record number is shown in brackets. Some examples from the book: As you can imagine, computers and processors have come a long way since that time; the specification has some constraints which were probably based both on the limitations of the 80's era computers and also on the developer's beliefs that chips were going to be approximately the same complexity for the foreseeable future.

Q: How do i get the uuid of a player in minecraft with nodeJS? I am working on a discord bot that gets information from a server. for this to work, i need the uuid of a minecraft player. I am using a dependency, but it is not working. Even if I enter a valid name, it still gives me this:
code & output
the string of numbers in the console is a character in minecraft named undefined... so yeah, if you see that my code isn't in the right data type (for example, it was supposed to be an integer instead of a string), please tell me. Thank you!

A: Send a request to:
https://api.mojang.com/users/profiles/minecraft/
This will give you the UUID of the specified Minecraft username.


Just call me Frauline Michelle!
For the lederhosen, I very loosely followed an old Burda pattern I have for baby shorts. I added the suspenders and omitted the snaps on the bottom. I want to eat him in this. My little wiener schnitzel!
For Millie's dress, I just drafted my own pattern from an existing dress she has and made my own pleats. I totally just eyeballed the pleats, and I am very proud because the dress part TOTALLY fit the bodice on first try! A total fluke, but awesome all the same :) At first I was going to try to copy the Liesl dress from the movie, but then I though whatever, Millie is NOT 16 going on 17, she is 4. Let's model her dress after one of the younger kids, lol.
I lined the bodice with some nice soft brown voile so that the dress wouldn't be all scratchy and stiff. I closed it with a simple pink button.
Also, I figured the governess Frauline Marie would have wanted to save time, having to make 7 outfits, so I used the existing hemline from the curtains for the bottom of the dress.. NO HEMMING!! yay!!!!
This was a really fun little project! And both outfits came together fairly quickly, I started Saturday night and ended this morning. Yesterday Jake had some guys over to watch football and I said it would be totally okay if he watched the kids while I got some sewing time done upstairs :) So this was an awesomely productive sewing weekend!
We had a fun little photo shoot, Millie was dancing with Quinn, and they both liked playing the piano together. Julie Andrews would be proud!
Best movie ever. Great idea. The outfits are adorable and that pic of you with your curtains is so great.
My favorite movie by far.
Yes, yes, yes! You rock!
Oh, that is just adorable!!
We watched that movie yesterday afternoon! Those outfits are precious and I love that you used the drapes to make them.
That fabric is perfect! I love that you used actual curtains too!
I would have never thought to use real drapes to make the outfits… and create such wonderful outfits. Creative and BRAVE.. what a Mom. I just love the results. I'll be looking to see what you do next week for repurposing.
Get out!!! You really used old curtains?!?!? IMPRESSIVE!!
