Spoon's Britt Daniel forms Divine Fits with members of Wolf Parade and New Bomb Turks
Get ready for another indie rock supergroup.
Spoon's Britt Daniel, Wolf Parade's Dan Boeckner and former New Bomb Turks drummer Sam Brown are joining forces to become Divine Fits.
The group's as yet untitled debut album will be released later this year on Merge Records, longtime home to Spoon, Arcade Fire, New Pornographers, Fucked Up and numerous other bands. Post-punk production guru Nick Launay (Gang of Four, PiL, Kate Bush) recorded the album.
There's little information available about the album or any touring plans. Keep up-to-date at the band's web site here. Divine Fits should have an interesting sound, since all three band members' other projects have been distinctively different; Spoon purveys sparse, soulful pop while New Bomb Turks played upbeat punk-pop and Wolf Parade eyed '80s new wave as inspiration and often featured keyboards and dancier sounds.
Spoon's last studio album, "Transference," hit No. 4 on the Billboard 200 in 2010. Wolf Parade, whose last album was also released in 2010, recently announced that they're on hiatus. The New Bomb Turks, meanwhile, haven't played together since 2005.

Vegetarians back Fable II
Animal welfare group PETA has voted Fable II the most "animal-friendly videogame", at their annual Proggy Awards ceremony.
Apparently, the Xbox 360 exclusive RPG is a "vegetarian's dream come true". Why? You might ask. The game purportedly puts vegetarians on a level playing field with their meat munching cousins.
"In this virtual fight between good and evil, characters powered by tofu are just as powerful as their meat-eating counterparts-and are more fit and attractive to boot," offer PETA on Lionhead's creation.
"Featuring a strong pro-vegetarian theme, eating a plant-based diet helps you rack up 'purity' points, whereas eating meat makes your character fat and evil. A fun and innovative game, it's also an effective tool that teaches gamers the real-life benefits of a vegetarian diet."

The campaign will feature a series of short films presented by Doherty on Channel 4's online catch up service 4OD throughout January and February. Doherty will show support for pig farmers who produce meat to red Tractor standards and showcase a range of pork cuts and meal ideas with recipes available at porkforcaterers.bpex.org.uk .
Reduced supply and price rises are predicted for the pig meat sector next year when animal welfare legislation comes into effect throughout the EU. This will have an impact on the foodservice market as 68.4% of all red meat servings in the out of home market include pork and pork products (NPD Crest).
The films will be distributed via social media and streamed online through a dedicated Channel 4 micro-site and as video on demand via 4OD. Half-minute sections will be shown during factual and food programmes on 4OD enbaling viewers to click through and see the full-length versions. Advertising on the Channel 4 website will also drive consumers to the films with Doherty-owned media, BPEX's Lovepork website and social media channels also ramping up engagement.
"These films will give viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the pig farming industry and the rigorous production standards that Red Tractor farmers work to," said BPEX foodservice trade manager Tony Goodger. "This should encourage caterers to source Red Tractor pork and consumers to ask about the pork that features on menus in pubs, restaurants and dining halls.
"We've teamed up with Jimmy Doherty for a number of reasons, not least because he will be able to articulate the Red Tractor message in a way that consumers will understand and warm to.
"To make sure consumers continue to enjoy the quality of pork they are used to, it is crucial for foodservice operators to establish effective supply chain arrangements. This will not only safeguard their supplies of Red Tractor pork and pork products but also help ensure the sustainability of the pig industry."

Another extremely late post. I have got to break myself of this habit, but it's too tempting to spend these days out and about. I'll catch up on commenting tomorrow, I hope. For those who are curious, I just applied the spherize distortion in photoshop to create this effect...sort of like looking through a magnifying glass. Sorry I don't know what kind of fern it is. It's a young frond, not fully developed, though.

This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/552,448, filed Mar. 12, 2004, which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates generally to a content gateway for use by generators and users of content. More specifically, the present invention relates to a content gateway for use in wireless communications that provides a market-place for service providers and content providers to do business and via which end users may access enhanced content on, e.g., wireless telephones.
2. Background of the Invention
In today's world of telecommunications, wireless service providers continue to add more and more content to their service offerings. The wireless communication industry, in its nascent stages, was merely about providing wireless voice communication between users. As the technology has advanced, today's phones and other wireless devices now offer, for example, games, customizable ring tones, text messaging services, the ability to capture and send images, advertising promotions, voting campaigns, internet service, graphics, video, and any number of new service offerings.
There are many wireless service providers or wireless carriers that provide these services via mobile communications devices to the public. The wireless carriers often provide their own content to be used by their customers, but there are also a growing number of independent content providers that develop and market content to be offered to the various wireless carriers. Because of the increasing number of entities in this market place, it is often difficult for independent content providers to identify, develop, and promote the most popular type of content. Also, because some content is device-specific, content providers may not have the kind of marketing information necessary to determine what technology they have already developed that may be worth translating for use on other devices or with other wireless carriers.
In addition to the marketing aspects, there are transactional costs associated with the current market place whereby individual wireless carriers must transact separately with each content provider to provide the content and determine how the providers will be compensated for the usage of the content. Accordingly, it would be desirable to provide improved systems and methods to promote the enhanced content supplied by disparate providers.
The present invention aims to provide a consolidated marketplace for wireless content to aid in alleviating one or more of the above-described problems. The central point of this consolidated marketplace is referred to herein as a "content gateway." The content gateway comprises a database for storage of content provided by independent content providers as well as wireless carriers themselves. In addition to storing the content, the content gateway may allow for one or more of various other functions/services including, for example, billing and other accounting services, marketing services, transcoding services, administrative services, etc.
According to one aspect, the present invention relates to a system for enabling exchange of content over a communications network. The system is accessible by at least a first category of users and a second category of users. A content gateway platform is included comprising a database for storage of content, whereby the first category of users supplies content to the database for use by the second category of users. The content gateway platform further provides tracking services to track one or more aspects associated with accessing the content in the database by one or more users of either the first category or second category.
According to another aspect, a system for enabling exchange of content over a communications network is disclosed having a first category of users comprising wireless carriers and a second category of users comprising content providers. A content gateway platform is provided having a database for storage of content. The content providers supply content to the database for use by the wireless carriers and the content is ultimately offered to end-user customers of the wireless carriers.
In one exemplary embodiment, a content gateway platform in accordance with the present invention and which will be described in more detail with respect to
The content gateway platform of the present invention may also, where appropriate, take advantage of message routing opportunities that exist through the use of a "universal short code" (USC). An illustrative example of a USC environment may be found in co-pending U.S. application Ser. No. 10/742,764, filed Dec. 23, 2003, entitled "Systems and Methods for a Universal Short Code Administration Facility," the content of which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety. This application discloses how a single short code can be made operable across disparate telecommunications system providers.
At its most basic level, the content gateway (CG) platform may serve as a bridge between two key communities in a content world—content providers and content consumers. Examples of content providers include the ever-expanding numbers of creators, authors, packagers, etc., of content. Content consumers are exemplified by the numerous wireless carriers through which mobile subscribers (MSs), the ultimate consumers, or end users, of content, are reachable.
The CG platform, in one aspect, offers the members of each of the two communities an array of tools and services that support different activities that may be necessary or desirable during the content lifecycle. As one illustrative example, consider the hypothetical content value chain 100 shown in
Next at step 150, user interactivity provisioning, device application services for user interactivity may be provided. At step 160, link aggregation, enablement and value added services may be created to facilitate the delivery of content to carriers. At step 170, mobile delivery, mobile connectivity and data transfer may be provided. Finally, at step 180, billing and settlement, bills may generated, collected, and all amounts may be settled across the various participants. As can easily be appreciated, the number of participants in this chain makes it difficult for any of the individual participants to effectively handle the data collection and reporting capabilities that are required to support a comprehensive billing and settlement service all the way up and down the chain.
One key community associated with CG platform 200 encompasses the content producers/providers 300, that are depicted at the top of
In addition, there are other services housed within CG platform 200, such as hosted applications, authentication, access control, routing/queuing, and auditing. CG platform 200 also provides administration services, such as, for example, a catalog, provisioning, reporting, and customer care. Those skilled in the field of software will appreciate that
Content providers 300 and carriers 400 each may interact with CG platform 200 to upload and/or download content, as well as to access any of the other services provided within the platform. As shown, CG platform 200 may support many different types of communication protocols to allow the various users to connect in substantially whatever fashion is most convenient. CG platform 200 may also be interconnected with credit/debit services to allow for easy payment options for the various services provided. These and other aspects are described in more detail below.
In accordance with the present invention, content producers 300 offer or submit content to CG platform 200 through one or more of the supported channels—e.g., the exchange of extensible markup language (XML) documents via simple mail transfer protocol (SMTP), the exchange of data streams over dedicated short message peer-to-peer (SMPP) connections, among others shown in
As shown, content consumers 400 retrieve or "pull" content from CG platform 200 (e.g., in real-time in response to a mobile subscriber, in scheduled batches to refresh their Web-based portal interface, etc.) through one or more of the supported channels (similar to those described in relation to the communication between content providers 300 and the CG platform 200). Integral to CG platform 200 is a data storage subsystem for storing all of the content and other aspects of the system to allow it to operate.
A separate administrative channel supports administrative activities (e.g., definitional, management, etc.). These activities may also include, among other things, the creation and maintenance of the CG platform users. The CG platform also includes a flexible and extensible user model comprising at least one CG administrator with universal access to the entire platform as well as individual users, each with his own specific, assigned set of access rights and permissions. Each user of CG platform 200 may be assigned a login ID and password that are associated with the specific set of access rights and permissions. These rights and permissions may define the subject matter each individual may see within the platform as well as what such an individual may do within the platform.
In a preferred implementation, a CG administrator creates domains and defines subsets of the universe of content to which each domain has access. The CG administrator may also create a domain administrator within each domain. The domain administrator, in turn, may create and manage the individual CG users within his domain and may assign to those users (e.g., through an intermediate group construct) the necessary platform rights. An exemplary administration chart for assigning rights within CG platform 200 is shown in
Along the top level of
Along the bottom row, the User Group Domains category assigns to various groups access to each of the domains. The Domains category is also linked to the Content category so that various content is available within each domain. In addition to providing the rights, an audit trail may be provided that preserves, among other things, the particulars (e.g., the date, time, and user ID) associated with each user's entry into and departure from the CG platform. The accessibility diagram of
Once a user, which may be a carrier 400 or a content provider 300, logs into CG platform 200, he may be presented with an initial screen whose structure and layout (e.g. display artifacts and navigation menu options) are tailored to the user's specific access rights and permissions. The display may be populated based on, among other things, the content visibility rules that have been assigned to the particular user.
Additionally, a comprehensive search facility may be provided, for example, to search the display regions, separately or combined, to filter the items shown, and to rapidly search for items. The search(es) may be conducted using a range of parameters or values, such as, for example, content type, date range, and content provider.
Once a user has selected a piece of content, the user may optionally preview that content by, for example, viewing an interactive audiovisual display (e.g., a set of animated screens in a sequenced slideshow). The preview may be unique to the piece of content and preferably captures the essence of the content to allow a user to make an informed decision as to purchasing the particular piece of content.
Content providers 300 may submit content to the platform via a variety of means. For example, content providers could submit content locally. In this manner, content providers could employ a comprehensive suite of content authoring, creation, packaging, and other tools that could be offered by CG platform 200. Accordingly, the content provider could locally generate content from scratch, directly on CG platform 200 itself. This could provide a major advantage to small content providers who do not have the resources to readily produce content from scratch and then also market that content.
Another way of providing content to the CG platform would be to do so remotely. In this manner, content providers 300 who produce their content, for example, within their own systems may use one or more of the supported channels, XML, SMTP, SMPP, etc. to upload the content to CG platform 200. This still provides advantages to content providers who may have the resources to develop their content, but are looking for, for example, a marketplace where content consumers "come to shop." For content providers in this category, CG platform 200 can virtually eliminate the need to shop their content around individually to each content consumer.
Once a piece of content is resident on the CG platform, it may begin working its way through a series of steps, such as, for example, review, approval, and publication. The specific steps through which a certain piece of content must traverse can be part of, and live under or within the context of, a flexible and dynamically configurable workflow sequence. A CG platform user that has been granted rights and access as described above may view, and if granted, alter an established workflow sequence, or even create a new sequence altogether.
A particular workflow sequence may include any number of individual steps. An exemplary process is described below, but one of skill in the art will appreciate that other workflow sequences may also be implemented within the context of the CG platform described herein. Initially a piece of content may be received and placed in a queue. Next the content may be analyzed and validated as to the data elements accompanying the content. These data elements may include, for example, content name, content type (e.g. MonoPhonic Ringtone, PolyPhonic Ringtone, Java™ Game, Brew™ Game), content size, mobile devices for which the content is appropriate, pricing information (e.g., suggested retail price, discount information), billing model (e.g., pre-paid, post-paid), and life expectancy. Once the content is received, CG platform 200 may issue a confirmation message (e.g., e-mail, SMS message) to inform the content provider that the content has been received.
Next, the workflow could proceed to the review process. During this process, the content may be examined, assessed, and either approved or rejected. The review process may optionally include adding an electronic watermark (e.g., "Sample") to the content. Also, the content may optionally be assigned a rating flag or descriptor. During each stage of the process, CG platform 200 may notify the content provider as to the content's status by sending out status messages to the content provider.
The final step in the workflow could be the selection process. At this step, a representative of a wireless carrier (i.e., content consumer 400) could select a piece of content, which would then be added to that carrier's content portfolio. Again, an optional message could be dispatched informing either the content provider or the carrier of this selection. As mentioned above, this workflow is merely exemplary and numerous other steps, such as, for example, publication, retirement, and upgrade, may be added to the workflow.
As mentioned above, a comprehensive audit trail may also be maintained by CG platform 200 for each piece of content that is processed through the system. The audit trail may preserve, among other things, the particulars associated with each instance that a piece of content is accessed within the platform.
As shown in
Once a piece of content has been selected by a wireless carrier for inclusion in its portfolio, that piece of content is eligible for distribution through the CG platform's workflow-driven Intelligent Inventory Distribution (IID) facility. The IID may support one or more distribution mechanisms.
Two examples of these distributions mechanisms are real-time distribution and batch distribution. In real-time distribution, for example, a piece of content that is hosted on CG platform 200 may be retrieved by a wireless carrier for delivery to a mobile subscriber in response to a request from the mobile subscriber. In batch distribution on a scheduled basis, a wireless carrier may retrieve one or more pieces of content from the CG platform to refresh the wireless carrier's Web-based content interface. This content might be, for example, content it offers to any of its mobile subscribers who elect to purchase a standard content package offered by the wireless carrier.
During a distribution operation, a number of activities may be performed, including, for example, examination, invocation, and generation. During examination, entries on a dynamically configurable Black List and White list may be examined in order to filter and, if appropriate, eliminate unwanted distribution. Invocation may comprise invoking a rating engine on CG platform 200 to develop a cost associated with the selected distribution event. Generation may involve the generation of one or more content detail records for capturing some or all of the details of the particular content distribution event. Other activities may also be included that will also facilitate, for example, rapid and dynamic inclusion of new distribution activities within the IID.
Another preferred aspect of CG platform 200 is the capability to achieve comprehensive billing and settlement. In support of this service, CG platform 200 preferably has established communication channels to various external entities, including, but not limited to, credit card processors and wireless carrier billing systems. The particulars of each communication channel may be abstracted away through one or more interface layers. Accordingly, additional communication channels (e.g., in support of some new external entity) may quickly and easily be added to the CG platform.
The billing function preferably allows for application of a range of dynamically configurable parameters to determine the cost of an event (e.g., downloading a piece of content). For example, different combinations of units of measure (e.g., transactions, bytes, messages), pricing models, the application of credit limits, currency conversions, taxes, and application of coupons or discounts may be effectuated. During settlement, funds are allocated and distributed to the proper parties. For example, settlement may allow for the distribution of funds among all of the different entities in the hypothetical content value chain described in
These settlement and billing facilities can greatly reduce costs of doing business for content providers because they can be automatic. If content providers take advantage of this aspect of the present invention, it may be possible that the providers' only task would essentially be the creation of the content. All of the other aspects may be taken care of by CG platform 200 and provider 300 can essentially be assured easy receipt of funds for the use of its content.
Another function that may be provided by CG platform 200 is that of comprehensive and easily extensible reporting capabilities. Through the reporting facility, a suitably-authorized CG platform user may select from a range of tabular and graphic presentations in support of a range of activities, including, but not limited to, monitoring, customer care, and fraud detection.
Monitoring may allow for a CG platform user to monitor, for example, the interest in a particular piece of content, the revenue that has been generated from the downloading of a particular piece of content, and the relative popularity of a wireless carrier's specific content portfolio. Any or all of these aspects may be utilized by CG platform users to maximize their efforts. For example, a wireless carrier can monitor its portfolio and see what content is popular or not so it can determine whether to discontinue certain content and potentially save money. It may also decide to add content similar to what it finds to be popular.
On the content provider side, the developer can see what is popular and use that information, for example, to focus efforts on porting applications from one mobile device to other mobile devices to allow it to take advantage of a particular application's popularity. Conversely, it can see what is not popular and either work to enhance that content or cease any further development.
As can be readily appreciated, one advantage of the present invention is when users, providers, and consumers are linked together in one large marketplace, it is possible to provide data not readily available if all parties are separately contracting and operating in their individual capacities.
Another benefit is improved customer care. CG platform 200 can allow for investigation and resolution of problems as reported by customers. Through the billing and settlement facility discussed above, the possible issuance of credit amounts could be more easily assessed (e.g., in response to a complaint that a particular downloaded game did not work properly).
The sheer volume of data may also allow for more enhanced fraud detection. Suspicious patterns may be more easily identified and subsequently explored. Such patterns may not even be ascertainable within the volume any one user could perceive within his/her own system. Besides the above-described advantages, many more should be readily apparent to those of skill in the art.
One example of a display that could be made available to users of CG platform 200 is depicted in
Such information could be useful to both carriers 400 and content providers 300 as described above. Carriers 400 could use the data displayed in
The above-described color-coding, could include, for example, using "hot" colors, such as, for example, reds, oranges, and yellows to show high usage and gradually fading into shades of blue and/or to represent lower usage. The specific parameters need not be limited to those shown in
The foregoing disclosure of the preferred embodiments of the present invention has been presented for purposes of illustration and description. It is not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise forms disclosed. Many variations and modifications of the embodiments described herein will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art in light of the above disclosure. The scope of the invention is to be defined only by the claims appended hereto, and by their equivalents.
Further, in describing representative embodiments of the present invention, the specification may have presented the method and/or process of the present invention as a particular sequence of steps. However, to the extent that the method or process does not rely on the particular order of steps set forth herein, the method or process should not be limited to the particular sequence of steps described. As one of ordinary skill in the art would appreciate, other sequences of steps may be possible. Therefore, the particular order of the steps set forth in the specification should not be construed as limitations on the claims. In addition, the claims directed to the method and/or process of the present invention should not be limited to the performance of their steps in the order written, and one skilled in the art can readily appreciate that the sequences may be varied and still remain within the spirit and scope of the present invention.

Chris Griffin – "The defense played great. If Coach Kelly was coaching it the whole year, they would have had a lot better season."
Shamire DeVine – "I was proud of the whole team. Everyone did their job well. Georgia Tech has what it takes to win. I can't wait to be part of the team."
Justin Akins – "I watched the game from the time it came on until the end. The defense is amazing. All 11 guys were running to the ball making plays. The defensive line really helped the passing D by knocking down balls at the line."
Tolando Cleveland – "I was very impressed with the players intensity. The whole team just played like they wanted it."
Harrison Butker – "I was really impressed with the Tech defense and thought we played well in all 3 facets of the game. Really big win for Georgia Tech especially after not winning any bowls for 7 years."

TwiFans.com, and your favorite Twilight Fansites, have been invited to participate in New Faces Friday. Every Friday from now until the end of October, a new actor/actress and Breaking Dawn - Part 2 character will be spotlighted along with a new interview conducted by fansites.
This week Twilightish.com is featuring the full interview with Guri Weinberg who plays Stefan from The Romanian coven . The Romanian coven ruled the vampire world until the Volturi decimated the coven and took over power. When the Romanians were overthrown, both Stefan & Vladimir lost their mates during the battles. They constantly search for ways to damage the Volturi's power & take any possible revenge against them. The Volturi periodically send vampires after them, but the Romanian Coven remains on guard against them .We also get our first glimpse of Stefan in the Breaking Dawn - Part 2 trailer here.
Here's part of his interview!
Question: What did you think of your costume and your makeup the very first time you saw yourself
fully decked out as your character?
Guri: Well I loved it. I mean it was a little freaky but I loved it. It was exactly what Michael, who is the
head wardrobe guy wanted when we first met and we put on the wardrobe. The eyes were a little
weird, cause I don't wear contact lenses, so it took them half an hour to put them in and then it took me
another good half an hour to see through them. So when I actually figured out what I looked like, I was
pretty happy with it.
Question: You had never worn contacts before? That's got to be a crazy situation.
Guri: Ya, it was awful. But because we had a whole department of people that handled the contacts and
put them in our eyes. The first two weeks it would drive them crazy because it would take them a good
half hour to put them in my eyes and they said you know we are never going to get through this and I
said well you should try to be me.

What Is Fashion- Miranda Kerr Harper's Bazaar Australia November 2011 What Is Fashion
First of all I want to say excellent blog! I
had a quick question in which I'd like to ask if you don't mind.
I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your mind prior to writing.
I've had a tough time clearing my thoughts in getting my ideas out there. I truly do take pleasure in writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are usually lost just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or hints? Thank you!

Parallel shRNA and CRISPR-Cas9 screens enable antiviral drug target identification
2016; 12 (5): 361-?
Broad-spectrum antiviral drugs targeting host processes could potentially treat a wide range of viruses while reducing the likelihood of emergent resistance. Despite great promise as therapeutics, such drugs remain largely elusive. Here we used parallel genome-wide high-coverage short hairpin RNA (shRNA) and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-Cas9 screens to identify the cellular target and mechanism of action of GSK983, a potent broad-spectrum antiviral with unexplained cytotoxicity. We found that GSK983 blocked cell proliferation and dengue virus replication by inhibiting the pyrimidine biosynthesis enzyme dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH). Guided by mechanistic insights from both genomic screens, we found that exogenous deoxycytidine markedly reduced GSK983 cytotoxicity but not antiviral activity, providing an attractive new approach to improve the therapeutic window of DHODH inhibitors against RNA viruses. Our results highlight the distinct advantages and limitations of each screening method for identifying drug targets, and demonstrate the utility of parallel knockdown and knockout screens for comprehensive probing of drug activity.

An essential receptor for adeno-associated virus infection.
2016; 530 (7588): 108-112
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors are currently the leading candidates for virus-based gene therapies because of their broad tissue tropism, non-pathogenic nature and low immunogenicity. They have been successfully used in clinical trials to treat hereditary diseases such as haemophilia B (ref. 2), and have been approved for treatment of lipoprotein lipase deficiency in Europe. Considerable efforts have been made to engineer AAV variants with novel and biomedically valuable cell tropisms to allow efficacious systemic administration, yet basic aspects of AAV cellular entry are still poorly understood. In particular, the protein receptor(s) required for AAV entry after cell attachment remains unknown. Here we use an unbiased genetic screen to identify proteins essential for AAV serotype 2 (AAV2) infection in a haploid human cell line. The most significantly enriched gene of the screen encodes a previously uncharacterized type I transmembrane protein, KIAA0319L (denoted hereafter as AAV receptor (AAVR)). We characterize AAVR as a protein capable of rapid endocytosis from the plasma membrane and trafficking to the trans-Golgi network. We show that AAVR directly binds to AAV2 particles, and that anti-AAVR antibodies efficiently block AAV2 infection. Moreover, genetic ablation of AAVR renders a wide range of mammalian cell types highly resistant to AAV2 infection. Notably, AAVR serves as a critical host factor for all tested AAV serotypes. The importance of AAVR for in vivo gene delivery is further highlighted by the robust resistance of Aavr(-/-) (also known as Au040320(-/-) and Kiaa0319l(-/-)) mice to AAV infection. Collectively, our data indicate that AAVR is a universal receptor involved in AAV infection.

RIP3 induces apoptosis independent of pronecrotic kinase activity.
Molecular cell
2014; 56 (4): 481-495
Receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIP3 or RIPK3) has emerged as a central player in necroptosis and a potential target to control inflammatory disease. Here, three selective small-molecule compounds are shown to inhibit RIP3 kinase-dependent necroptosis, although their therapeutic value is undermined by a surprising, concentration-dependent induction of apoptosis. These compounds interact with RIP3 to activate caspase 8 (Casp8) via RHIM-driven recruitment of RIP1 (RIPK1) to assemble a Casp8-FADD-cFLIP complex completely independent of pronecrotic kinase activities and MLKL. RIP3 kinase-dead D161N mutant induces spontaneous apoptosis independent of compound, whereas D161G, D143N, and K51A mutants, like wild-type, only trigger apoptosis when compound is present. Accordingly, RIP3-K51A mutant mice (Rip3(K51A/K51A)) are viable and fertile, in stark contrast to the perinatal lethality of Rip3(D161N/D161N) mice. RIP3 therefore holds both necroptosis and apoptosis in balance through a Ripoptosome-like platform. This work highlights a common mechanism unveiling RHIM-driven apoptosis by therapeutic or genetic perturbation of RIP3.

Expression of a versatile DC-targeting fusion protein using an Adenovirus expression system
2012; 84 (2): 270-279
The importance of viral and tumour vaccines in eliciting elicit strong CD8+ T-cell responses has been widely acknowledged. Strategies exploring ways to enhance CD8+ T-cell responses have been developed, including targeting of vaccine antigens to dendritic cell (DC) receptors to access to the cross presentation pathway. Many DC endocytic receptors could potentially lead to augmented CD8+ T-cell responses if antigens were targeted directly to them, however only a few receptors have been explored because current targeting reagents are limited in the number of receptors that they are able to target. Consequently, this study describes the production and purification of a streptavidin-fusion protein that provides a versatile and efficient means to target antigen to more than one DC receptor. A model antigen gene, CMV pp65, and a streptavidin core gene, were spliced together using an overlap-extension PCR technique. The resulting fusion gene was cloned into a vector allowing expression in an Adenovirus-based expression system. Expression was verified and optimised before Ni-NTA affinity chromatography purification. Evaluation of pp65-streptavidin immunogenicity revealed that it elicits similar levels of CD8+ T-cell proliferative responses as pp65 and is able to effectively target specific DC receptors when used in addition to biotinylated receptor-specific antibodies. Additionally, enhancement of CD8+ T-cell responses was shown after directing pp65-strep to selected DC receptors in preliminary in vitro experiments. Collectively, this highlights the ease of production of a streptavidin-fusion protein, and demonstrates its use as a promising strategy to evaluate numerous DC receptors as potential targets in vaccine strategies.

HIV-1 sub-type C chimaeric VLPs boost cellular immune responses in mice.
Journal of immune based therapies and vaccines
2010; 8: 7-?
Several approaches have been explored to eradicate HIV; however, a multigene vaccine appears to be the best option, given their proven potential to elicit broad, effective responses in animal models. The Pr55Gag protein is an excellent vaccine candidate in its own right, given that it can assemble into large, enveloped, virus-like particles (VLPs) which are highly immunogenic, and can moreover be used as a scaffold for the presentation of other large non-structural HIV antigens. In this study, we evaluated the potential of two novel chimaeric HIV-1 Pr55Gag-based VLP constructs - C-terminal fusions with reverse transcriptase and a Tat::Nef fusion protein, designated GagRT and GagTN respectively - to enhance a cellular response in mice when used as boost components in two types of heterologous prime-boost vaccine strategies. A vaccine regimen consisting of a DNA prime and chimaeric HIV-1 VLP boosts in mice induced strong, broad cellular immune responses at an optimum dose of 100 ng VLPs. The enhanced cellular responses induced by the DNA prime-VLP boost were two- to three-fold greater than two DNA vaccinations. Moreover, a mixture of GagRT and GagTN VLPs also boosted antigen-specific CD8+ and CD4+ T-cell responses, while VLP vaccinations only induced predominantly robust Gag CD4+ T-cell responses. The results demonstrate the promising potential of these chimaeric VLPs as vaccine candidates against HIV-1.

Optimization of Chimeric HIV-1 Virus-Like Particle Production in a Baculovirus-Insect Cell Expression System
2009; 25 (4): 1153-1160
A baculovirus-insect cell expression system potentially provides the means to produce prophylactic HIV-1 virus-like particle (VLP) vaccines inexpensively and in large quantities. However, the system must be optimized to maximize yields and increase process efficiency. In this study, we optimized the production of two novel, chimeric HIV-1 VLP vaccine candidates (GagRT and GagTN) in insect cells. This was done by monitoring the effects of four specific factors on VLP expression: these were insect cell line, cell density, multiplicity of infection (MOI), and infection time. The use of western blots, Gag p24 ELISA, and four-factorial ANOVA allowed the determination of the most favorable conditions for chimeric VLP production, as well as which factors affected VLP expression most significantly. Both VLP vaccine candidates favored similar optimal conditions, demonstrating higher yields of VLPs when produced in the Trichoplusia ni Pro insect cell line, at a cell density of 1 x 10(6) cells/mL, and an infection time of 96 h post infection. It was found that cell density and infection time were major influencing factors, but that MOI did not affect VLP expression significantly. This work provides a potentially valuable guideline for HIV-1 protein vaccine optimization, as well as for general optimization of a baculovirus-based expression system to produce complex recombinant proteins.

Chimaeric HIV-1 subtype C Gag molecules with large in-frame C-terminal polypeptide fusions form virus-like particles
2008; 133 (2): 259-268
HIV-1 Pr55 Gag virus-like particles (VLPs) are strong immunogens with potential as candidate HIV vaccines. VLP immunogenicity can be broadened by making chimaeric Gag molecules: however, VLPs incorporating polypeptides longer than 200 aa fused in frame with Gag have not yet been reported. We constructed a range of gag-derived genes encoding in-frame C-terminal fusions of myristoylation-competent native Pr55Gag and p6-truncated Gag (Pr50Gag) to test the effects of polypeptide length and sequence on VLP formation and morphology, in an insect cell expression system. Fused sequences included a modified reverse transcriptase-Tat-Nef fusion polypeptide (RTTN, 778 aa), and truncated versions of RTTN ranging from 113 aa to 450 aa. Baculovirus-expressed chimaeric proteins were examined by western blot and electron microscopy. All chimaeras formed VLPs which could be purified by sucrose gradient centrifugation. VLP diameter increased with protein MW, from approximately 100 nm for Pr55Gag to approximately 250 nm for GagRTTN. The presence or absence of the Gag p6 region did not obviously affect VLP formation or appearance. GagRT chimaeric particles were successfully used in mice to boost T-cell responses to Gag and RT that were elicited by a DNA vaccine encoding a GagRTTN polypeptide, indicating the potential of such chimaeras to be used as candidate HIV vaccines.

I have an Underwood.
Ollivetti-Underwood portable if I can find it.
Word processing is way more gooder.
Not that Agnes can't master her new computer and it's thin screen
sorry, its thin screen
Someone should learn you to talk gooder English.
Seriously, I remember a really obnoxious kid at school who would say, 'I'll learn ya!'
The school had first class teachers … he was shipped in from a small town.
I bought a new tablet with a similar thin screen.
It wasn't very expensive, and it's quite portable.
Unfortunately, when I try to use it, it has lines across it that affect the text.
My sixth grade teacher came into class one day extremely irritated at a classmate who had informed him, "You cain't larn me nuthin."
Mr. Shoemake said, "No, I can't learn it for you but I can teach if if you will pay attention."
Mack won, though. He didn't larn nuthin that year.
"I have an Underwood."
I have a Royal with the original black and red ribbon (I'm told they don't make those anymore). I leave it in the case and use it for weight-bearing exercise.
Remington Travel-Riter Deluxe in original false-leather casing. With red/black ribbons and spare(s). Takes dust on the bottom of my wardrobe. No Wifi, no bluetooth, no spell-check.
I just donated my grandmother's typewriter (1909) to a local musuem. It had a double shift – shift once for capital letters, and again for numbers and punctuation. Just about impossible to build up any speed, I imagine.
When we cleaned out my grandmother's house after she died in 2002, one of my cousin's 10-11 year old daughters wanted to keep "that computer on the desk in the upstairs bedroom." It was a beaut—1930s or 40s vintage, still completely functional—and I'm glad it stayed in the family.
Tough audience…. sigh….
whassa mare, shine? tell me how you posted your avatar, i'll talk to you. (didn't really follow the thread re: the tablet). i'm old and delicate, you see.
It's very easy…. this may sound complicated but only cos I typed out every step (sorry if too much so but I don't know how much you know.)
First, if you don't have a suitable picture on your computer, find something on the web, and right-click and save it to your My Pictures folder..
It can be bigger than an avatar…. but remember it will be displayed very small.
Then go to the upper left corner of your comics page, and click the link that says "My Account."
click the grey question mark by any of your comments,
and on the resulting page, click "Update profile"
(also in the upper left corner.)
Either will open your Account page….
Click "Update Avatar."
A little window will open… click the button that says "Browse"….
Another window
will display the My Pictures folder on your computer.
Click the picture you want, and click OK or Open….
that window will close and you can click "Submit."
GoComics will do the rest.
Sometimes right away… but lately, sometimes not for hours.
If you have any problems with these instructions, you know lotsa places to find me.
BTW… I'm old too….
I was merely joking about a tablet.
The original, non I "pad."

The local call center went online at 1pm Monday. Before that Idaho was the only state in the country who didn't have their own call center. Volunteers say it's important to have local people answering the phones because they can better understand the problems facing local residents.
George Austin, who volunteered for a hotline while living in Michigan, said having someone on the line that is local can really help.
"Recognize that this is not something that necessarily is a lifetime problem but is a situational problem," said Austin "Hopefully we can help them tap into their resources and some of the community resources so that they can get through."
On average a suicide hotline gets about 15 phone calls per day and officials say it's important to have someone there to listen. Volunteer Coordinator Sydney Young said that can make the difference for many.
"You're a third party that isn't going to judge them. So really listening to them and validating their problems and taking an interest in caring about them is the biggest thing they can do."
The last suicide hotline shut down in 2006 due to funding issues. This time around the hotline has at least enough to go for two years and is confident they can raise enough money to keep it going in the future. They've already received several large donations from local organizations.
If you need to call or know someone who might need someone to talk with about suicide you can call the hotline at 1-800-237-TALK(8255). To help volunteer or for more information you can visit their website idahosuicideprevention.org

Civil Aircraft Security Against MANPADS
Commercial aircraft are a target of terrorists because they represent one of the best achievements of our society: an attack has a big psychological impact on population, and thus economical activity. If a multiple attack like the ones on the Madrid railways and the London Underground were to occur in several airports spread over the globe, economy would be severely weakened. This effect would be reinforced if the terrorists underlined that London occurred after Madrid.
There exists another threat besides the 11 September twin-towers type of event: 15 000 disseminated shoulder-launched infrared guided missiles (MANPADS) which are in uncontrolled hands. Several attacks have already occurred and evidence of trafficking has been reported. Taking into account the large number of MANPADS currently known to be in the possession of over 27 terrorists groups, their relatively low cost and the vulnerability of large aircraft on landing or taking off, the probability of such attacks appears to be high.
The US is preparing some regulations to force commercial aircraft to be equipped with onboard protection systems. It is vital for Europe from a security and an economical standpoint to be able to answer this requirement. Future protection systems must be competitive, i.e. low cost and minimal perturbation on the aircraft (low mass, low drag and low consumption).
The likelihood of a terrorist attack against a commercial aircraft by firing several MANPADS missiles towards it from a populated area nearby a large airport appears to be high. The global objective of the proposed CASAM project, is to design, and validate a closed-loop laser-based DIRCM (directed infrared countermeasure) module for MANPADS jamming the fired missile(s), which will comply with the constraints of commercial air transportation, including the civil aircraft profile of flight, and will be able to defeat first and second generation MANPADS (currently the most available worldwide) and also third generation ones which may be available in the future. CASAM objectives consider that this DIRCM system shall be designed with reference to the specific requirements and constraints relevant to commercial aviation. For example, consideration must be given to the following:
- environmentally friendly for ground objects and inhabitants close to the airport, safe for the aircraft (for maintenance, handling and usage), highly efficient against the recognised threats,
- upgradeable for further and future disseminated threats,
- maintainable within commercial budgets and processes.
A protection system is made of a missile detector and deceiving equipment. CASAM will concentrate research on the latter: innovative directed infrared countermeasure (DIRCM) equipment which represents the most expensive and heaviest part of a global defence system.
Description of work
During the 26-month project, CASAM will explore several technological breakthroughs in laser, optics, electromechanics and processing that will be the core of the future competitive equipment. A technical validation prototype will be tested against actual missile seeker heads. Specific effort will be put on threat analysis and simulation, economical analysis, aircraft installation constraints and impact. A specific study will be carried out on legal and regulation issues which have a prominent position in the roadmap.
The goal of the research is to progress on innovative technologies that will identify an efficient and competitive DIRCM system for use on a commercial aircraft. Military research has shown that it is possible to get efficient jamming capability. The interesting challenge and the possible risk are linked to the global requirements of airlines and airframers: low total volume, low drag, low mass, low power consumption, high reliability, low LCC, and no risk on-ground and during take-off and landing.
Part of the challenge lies in technology improvements and simplifications through an innovating approach.
The main technical DIRCM modules need innovative work:
- Optronics have to be low volume, low mass and low cost. The opto-mechanical turret will reach outstanding performance in steering and stabilisation. New focal plane array (imagery sensor) will integrate passive and active detection modes for improved passive and active tracking modes. Line of sight stabilisation will use innovating low-cost devices.
- Laser technology will be based on new progress in OPO crystals with a simplified architecture. For the pump laser, research will be focused on mass, volume and consumption reduction, as well as output power and pulse rate frequency improvement. OPO research will deal with wavelength conversion stage optimisation, crystal choice, arrangement and optimisation.
- Laser technology will be based on new efficient approaches including fibre lasers and simpler frequency conversion modules (OPO), as well as directly emitting mid-infrared semiconductor lasers.
- Tracking technology will be adapted and optimised in synergy with hardware development.
The results of the project will be:
- a DIRCM prototype test article to be ground tested,
- a validation of this developed innovative DIRCM system's effectiveness with respect to the operational requirements due to a set of laboratory tests and open range tests.
Due to the sensitivity of the topic related to the security of commercial flights, the vast majority of technical data, drawings and sketches released by the project during its course will be classified as confidential and put under tight access control.

Libraries Announce 2012-2017 Strategic Plan
Libraries Announce 2012-2017 Strategic Plan
April 2, 2012
Four key directions will shape the future of Drexel University Libraries as a vibrant learning enterprise advancing the University's investment in academic excellence, improvement of the student experience, creative research, growing enrollment and enhanced global impact. "I am pleased to share the Libraries' Strategic Plan and am grateful to its many contributors," said Danuta A. Nitecki, dean of Libraries. Over 60 individuals energetically engaged in the planning process at a July 2011 Future Search Conference, which explored how the Libraries can advance the University's transformation. Since then, many individuals have helped to shape and articulate the plan to identify the four directions, tagged as; access, environments, connections and organization These tags highlight the plan's focus to 1.) ensure access to ideas and authoritative information sources, regardless of time or geography for Drexel's diverse community to learn, contribute to scholarship, and serve society, 2.) build learning environments in physical and cyber spaces, 3.) deepen Drexel's connections with scholarship through expert guidance across knowledge communities, authoritative publications, and unique data sources, and 4.) model a collaborative and entrepreneurial library organization that effectively leverages university and external resources to serve students, enhance teaching, and support researchers. Imagine Drexel graduates and faculty as world-class self-directed learners distinguished by experiential and theoretical knowledge of their profession's approach to creating solutions. They are skilled and confident in mastering their discipline's scholarship and navigating the ever-expanding mass of information to uncover new questions, create knowledge to solve problems and learn. The Libraries is a crossroad for them to deepen connections to scholarship. For more information about the Libraries 2012 – 2017 Strategic Plan, visit www.library.drexel.edu/strategicplan.

Quick question for my education:
Let me first say, I love this shot. Second, from what I understand from the rejection criteria, it seems to tick a few boxes in terms of things not allowed in a photo: window frame, reflections, etc.
Is this just a case of the screeners letting an obviously great photo in at their discretion?
I ask because I have a few shots I'd like to submit (quality permitting), but hadn't due to the window frame being in shot.
