Indeed, researchers are beginning to recognize the advantages exosomes hold over other drug carrier systems. Owing to these properties, exosomes have the potential to overcome several of the limitations associated with other drug delivery systems. Finally, exosomes have an excellent tissue/cell penetration capacity. Due to their endogenous origins, exosomes also exhibit high biocompatibility. Their lipid bilayer also minimizes immunogenicity and toxicity, supporting their stabilization into the extracellular space. Firstly, they are innately stable due to their lipid bilayer membrane, allowing them to circulate even in the harsh tumor microenvironment. To understand how these small particles can induce such large-scale effects, let’s consider their unique properties. Though exosomes are involved in important physiological activities, they also play a significant role in the pathogenesis of diseases including cancer, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, and viral infections. Exosomes are effective cellular transport systems, capable of shuttling bioactive ‘cargo’ such as proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. Exosomes permit efficient intercellular communication and signaling between cells and across biological barriers (including the blood-brain barrier). The exosomal pathway of intercellular traffic plays a significant role in many features of health and disease, including immunity, tissue homeostasis, and regeneration. Exosomes are also present in a variety of biological fluids such as blood, urine, saliva, breast milk, amniotic, synovial, cerebrospinal fluids, and even tears. Since their initial characterization, further studies have revealed that exosomes are secreted by most viable cell types, including immune cells, intestinal epithelial cells, and neurons. The inset shows the molecular constituents of the exosomes. Schematic representation of exosome biogenesis and secretion. Upon release from the secreting cell, they transmit messages to recipient cells through several mechanisms, including surface receptor interaction, membrane fusion, as well as receptor-mediated endocytosis, phagocytosis, and/or micropinocytosis (Figure 1).įigure 1. Produced in the endosomal compartment of most eukaryotic cells, exosomes are subsequently released into the extracellular space by fusion with the plasma membrane. However, exosomes were found to be more complex in structure, containing a large array of proteins and lipids. Like liposomes, exosomes are comprised of a lipid membrane and an inner aqueous medium. Yet it was not until the 1980s that these 30–150nm extracellular vesicles were first defined and the name ‘exosomes’ was coined. They found that this material - which they termed “platelet dust” - was lipid-rich and likely to be involved in platelet activation. It was over 50 years ago that researchers first observed minute particulates in human plasma. Using insights from the CAS Content Collection™, we provide a landscape view of recent research advancement on exosome applications, while highlighting the opportunities and challenges in this rapidly expanding area. In this three-part series, we explore the history of exosomes, before describing the latest exosomal research in drug delivery and diagnostics. To predict and fully leverage the potential of the exosome, it is important to understand the depth and breadth of the research landscape. Their promise in therapeutics and diagnostics is garnering interest from both corporate and academic institutions. They are gaining the attention of the scientific community due to their ability to carry messages between cells in the form of proteins, nucleic acids, and other biomolecules. Dubbed ‘nature’s lipid nanoparticles’, exosomes are a subset of extracellular vesicles released from cells as part of their normal physiology or under certain pathologies.

What’s left gets reinvested in the band or saved so that we don’t have to rack up $24,000 of credit card debt to book another tour. After all of our expenses (yes, making music videos professionally is expensive), Nataly and I each draw a salary of about $2,500 per month from Pomplamoose. We sell about $5,000 of music per month through iTunes and Loudr. The loss was an investment in future tours.Īt the end of the day, Pomplamoose is just fine: our patrons give us $6,326 per video through our Patreon page. We wanted to be invited back to every venue, and we wanted our fans to bring their friends next time. That would have saved us over $50,000, but it was important at this stage in Pomplamoose’s career to put on a wild and crazy rock show. We could have played a duo show instead of hiring six people to tour with us. We knew it would be an expensive endeavor, and we still chose to make the investment. And we had $147,802 in expenses.īut this isn’t a sob story. If you’re making a living as an indie band, a tour sponsor is a shining beacon of financial light at the end of a dark tunnel of certain bankruptcy.Īdd it up, and that’s $135,983 in total income for our tour. Some people think of brand deals as “selling out.” My guess is that most of those people are hobby musicians, not making a living from their music, or they’re rich and famous musicians who don’t need the income. We thanked them on stage for saving our asses and supporting indie music. Thank goodness for Lenovo! They gave us three laptops (to run our light show) and a nice chunk of cash. Literally, 72% of our tour income came from the tickets you bought. Let’s look at our income from the tour: Income Kia is the man.įortunately, Pomplamoose made some money to offset some of these expenses. Our lawyer, Kia Kamran, declined his commission because he knew how much the tour was costing us. Our business management takes a commission as well to do payroll, keep our finances in order, and produce the awesome report that lead to this analysis. They deserve every penny and more: booking a four week tour is a huge job. Our awesome booking agency, High Road Touring, takes a commission for booking the tour. Manufacturing merchandise, publicity (a radio ad in SF, Facebook ads, venue specific advertising), supplies, shipping.Ĭommissions. Per diems are twenty dollar payments to each bandmate and crew member each day for food while we’re out. In case we break someone’s face while crowdsurfing. Holy shit, parking a 42-foot van is expensive. 28 nights for the tour, plus a week of rehearsals. Best Western level hotels, nothing fancy. Production expenses: equipment rental, lights, lighting board, van rental, trailer rental, road cases, backline. Where did all those expenses come from? I’m glad you asked: Expenses The tour ended up costing us $147,802 to produce and execute. With six figures of projected expenses, “the best we could” wasn’t super comforting. Neither of us had experience with financial modeling, so we just did the best we could. We built the tour budget ourselves and modeled projected revenue against expenses. One week of salaries for four musicians and two crew members (front of house engineer and tour manager) cost us $8794. We also knew that once we hit the road, we would be paying our band and crew on a weekly basis. And then we planned (or hoped) to make that back in ticket sales. $17,000 on one credit card and $7,000 on the other, to be more specific. We don’t have a label lending us “tour support.” We put those expenses right on our credit cards. And….Īll of that required an upfront investment from Nataly and me. In order to plan and execute our Fall tour, we had to prepare for months, slowly gathering risk and debt before selling a single ticket. Pomplamoose is “making it.” And every day, we bust our asses to continue “making it,” but we most certainly have not “made it.” Being in an indie band is running a never-ending, rewarding, scary, low-margin small business. But the phrase “made it” does not properly describe Pomplamoose. Having the opportunity to play music as a career is a dream come true. One question that our fans repeatedly asked us was “what does it feel like to have ‘made it’ as a band?” Though it’s a fair question to ask of a band with a hundred million views on YouTube, the thought of Pomplamoose having “made it” is, to me, ridiculous.īefore I write another sentence, it’s important to note that Nataly and I feel so fortunate to be making music for a living. I’ll remember that night for the rest of my life. We sold 1129 tickets in San Francisco at the Fillmore. It was awesome: Nataly crowd surfed for the first time ever, we sold just under $100,000 in tickets, and we got to rock out with people we love for a full month. We played 24 shows in 23 cities around the United States. The following is by 1/2 of the band Pomplamoose and Patreon co-founder, Jack Conte. And if you are using a Heavy Forwarder, nf and nf reside there instead of Indexers. Note that if you are using Splunk in a distributed environment, nf and nf reside on the Indexers (also called Search Peers) while nf reside on the Search Heads. This is achieved through configuring nf, nf and nf. This process is also known as adding custom fields during index time. You can configure Splunk to extract additional fields during index time based on your data and the constraints you specify. By default Splunk extracts many fields during index time. The process of creating fields from the raw data is called extraction. Splunk automatically creates many fields for you. This kind of flexibility in exploring data will never be possible with simple text searching. The above SPL searches the index web which happens have web access logs, with sourcetype equal to access_combined, status grater than or equal to 500 (indicating a server side error) and response_time grater than 6 seconds (or 6000 milli seconds). For example, consider the following SPL index=web sourcetype=access_combined status>=500 response_time>6000 Fields in Splunkįields turbo charge your searches by enabling you to customize and tailor your searches. The values are “main”, “access_combined_wcookie” and “purchase” respectively. The fields in the above SPL are “index”, “sourcetype” and “action”. index=main sourcetype=access_combined_wcookie action=purchase Also, a given field need not appear in all of your events. Virtually all searches in Splunk uses fields. What is a field?Ī field is a name-value pair that is searchable. By fully reading this article you will gain a deeper understanding of fields, and learn how to use rex command to extract fields from your data. I’ll also reveal one secret command that can make this process super easy. In my experience, rex is one of the most useful commands in the long list of SPL commands. I’ll provide plenty of examples with actual SPL queries. In this article, I’ll explain how you can extract fields using Splunk SPL’s rex command. Unfortunately, it can be a daunting task to get this working correctly. The mvindex function takes two or three arguments and returns a subset of the multivalue field using the index values provided.One of the most powerful features of Splunk, the market leader in log aggregation and operational data intelligence, is the ability to extract fields while searching for data. Alternatively, splits field by using a regex. The delimiter can be a multicharacter delimiter. Using makemv command, we can converts a single valued field into a multivalue field by splitting the values on a simple string delimiter. For each result, the mvexpand command creates a new result for every multivalue field. Using mvexpand command, we can expands the values of a multivalue field into separate events, one event for each value in the multivalue field. Mvzip is mv eval function command, which combines 2 fields values to one field. Let’s combine all the fields values to one field value using mvzip command. We could see that, key_a field is under an array named as key_4. From above json sample data, we need to extract the key_a field. If we need to extract the specific field from array in json, we can mention the path, so that splunk can understand the key-value pair needed to be extracted. The spath command will extract the all fields automatically. If we run spath command to above sample json data, key-value pairs will extracted automatically. The supported arguments are INPUT, PATH, OUTPUT. The spath command is used to extract the fields from structured data format like json, xml etc. The fields created by spath are mostly multivalued fields, specially the fields extracted out of array. So the key_4 will points to the array elements following curly bracket Because the key_4, values showing as an array, which is in square brackets. Key_1, key_2, key_3 will be considered as fields, but key_4 won’t. Let’s understand, how splunk spath command will extract the fields from above json data.įrom above data, when we executed spath command, the first curly bracket is consider as opening and then the following key-value pairs will extracted directly. spath command will breakdown the array take the key as fields. We can use spath splunk command for search time fields extraction. JSON is structured data format with key-value pair rendered in curly brackets.

A lot of people are wondering what is Patreon and why Paralives needs it.Short answer: the game could not happen without everyone's support. Paralives probably even less so though This so much My love, my love, my fearless love, I will not say goodbye. Instead of being barely animated paper doll-style cutouts, the characters move and sway when idle and prepare to attack when you start clicking on different combat skills. What's dramatically improved, however, are the character models and animations. Combat is largely the same as it was in its predecessor it's a one-dimensional tactics game where face monsters on a line and use appropriate skills to bash, weaken, and zap them before they can do the same to you. It's much less intense overall, for good and for ill.ĭarkest Dungeon 2 is still a very strong moment-to-moment game, despite those systemic issues. This isn't necessarily a bad thing! If you were stressed about those difficult decisions in the original, Darkest Dungeon 2 might be much more your speed. Having a single long dungeon run means there are a bunch of smaller decisions with smaller effects overall. Darkest Dungeon 1 was filled with the compelling decision of "should I try to guide this barely standing party to a finish line or should I bail now and keep them alive?" In Darkest Dungeon 2, you simply go as far as you can until you have to click "Abandon Run" and then try again. Because a run is a single, multi-hour progression, there's no ability to run away and only get partial rewards for the current set of characters – in Darkest Dungeon 2 you're either going forward or you're starting over. They combine in a way that removes the signature tension that Darkest Dungeon 1 created. They're annoying, certainly, but they're not run-ending the way a breakdown in Darkest Dungeon 1 could be.Īnd this is the biggest issue with Darkest Dungeon 2's new mechanics. I found it pretty easy, at least early in a run, to simply fight my way past the debuffs. Alternately, if you don't want to worry about stress, you can get by without even bothering to take those characters or upgrades. If you want to manage your party's stress level, you pretty much have to upgrade one of a few skills like the Plague Doctor's "Ounce of Prevention" skill at the start of a run and use it regularly. This combines with the other major issue with the relationship system in the early access version: it's just not especially well-balanced right now. Your computer will restart a couple of times which is a standard part of the proceeding. Partitions on SSDs are always faster for installing any operating system.

Multitools (see image example at the bottom of this page) are more convenient and simple to use. Which edge tool? A multitool (side & base or multiple angles in one tool) or dedicated tools (one tool for each angle)? Keep in mind: An aggressive edge (high angle), may be more difficult for lighter racers may make it more difficult to recover from being up on the edge. Slalom angles can be 3.0 to 5.0 degrees downhill up to 3.0 degrees. Higher angles should be reserved for experienced racers if the angle is too high the ski can "rail out" on a less experienced racer. Side Edge Thoughts Side edge beveling will give the skis more grip on the snow surface. Snowboard Boardercross - 0 to 1.0 degrees.Snowboard Halfpipe - 1.0 to 2.0 degrees (tip/tail) 0 to 1.0 degrees (underfoot).Snowboard Beginner - 1.0 to 2.0 degrees.All Mountain Novice/Advanced - 1.0 degree.All Mountain Expert - 0.75 to 1.0 degrees.If the skis hook up on turns, increase the bevel by a quarter or half degree. The bevels cited below are good starting points. So once the base edge bevel is set, maintain it as long as possible using diamond and gummi stones. If you need to resurface past this point, you may need to stone grind the base to bring it back to flat so you can re-establish the base angle. With a new pair of skis the non-race skier may wish to start with a 0.5 degree bevel. Once you set the base edge angle, you can't go back to the original because of the base material. The more base edge bevel, the easier it will be to pivot or slide from side to side. This is a good starting point for beginning J4/J5 racers.īase Edge Thoughts The amount of base edge bevel will affect the ability of the ski/board to pivot on the snow. General recommendation for serious racers and J3/J2 level.ĩ0 Degree Edge Bevel A 1 degree base bevel and a 1 degree side bevel give a 90 degree total edge angle. This gives more grip on hard snow surfaces. This will be explained in detail below it is mentioned here as not to be overlooked.Īcute Edge A side bevel that is higher in degree than the base bevel gives an acute angle. After you set your edge angles once, reduce edge wear by using diamond or aluminum oxide stones to routine sharpen. You are looking for a base that is consistent along its length, neither high nor low compared to the edges.Hold a true bar to the ski at 8-10 points along its length.Remove rough areas on the top surface (over the entire length) of the ski/board with 400 grit silicon carbide sandpaper.Take the working file and round off the edges, then smooth with 220-grit Silicon-Carbide (SiC) sandpaper and polish with 400-grit SiC. Make your tips and tails aerodynamic (not the edges, but rather the actual top/bottom of your ski/board tip or tail).Use this file for odd jobs and save the new one for your edges. Buy a new file each year and mark the old one with a "W" for "working" file. The renewal process ensures that your account continues to be official and enjoy the full benefits of a verified account. Optimize your WeChat Official Account Tip 6:īe prepared if you need an account name changeĪnnually, your WeChat account must go through a verification/renewal process for which there is a cost of USD $99 (for foreign accounts) or RMB ¥300 (for domestic accounts). After 48 hours, the reply field will be greyed out, and you will not be able to respond at all.Īction:Make sure you respond to your WeChat messages quickly so as not to ignore inquiries and lose follower trust. Note that you must respond to your WeChat messages within 48 hours. Most of the time, they ask questions or have business enquiries. WeChat has a chat function (located at the bottom of your official account menu page) where your followers can send text messages to you. Now, all WeChat official accounts can customize their welcome messages.Īction: Make sure you create a warm welcome message for your new followers! Optimize your WeChat Official Account Tip 5: For WeChat official accounts registered with a foreign business license, the default message users would get when they followed the account was “Thanks for following me.” In the past, customizable welcome messages were available only for WeChat official accounts registered with a Chinese business license. Optimize your WeChat Official Account Tip 4: While you are only allowed up to 4 pushes/month for a service account and 1 push/day for a subscription account, the good news is that each push allows you share up to 8 articles at once.Īction: Maximize your pushes by including up to 8 articles relevant to your target audience-if that amount of articles fits your brand strategy/editorial calendar. Optimize your WeChat Official Account Tip 3: This push quota loss may be disruptive, as it may change your posting schedule and topics.Īction: Ensure your post is well-prepared before publishing-and think critically before deleting. For a subscription account, you would have 0 pushes left for that day.For a service account, you would have 3 pushes left for the entire month.This means you would have used up 1 push within your quota: Sometimes, particularly given the editing limits described in tip 1, you may need to delete an entire post. A WeChat subscription account allows you up to 1 push a day.A WeChat service account allows you up to 4 pushes a month.Each type allows only a certain push quota: WeChat official accounts are of two types: service or subscription. Optimize your WeChat Official Account Tip 2: Once an article is posted, you can only make edits of up to 20 Chinese characters-beyond that, there is no changing of images, no editing of header titles (which appear on WeChat push images), etc.Īction: Make sure that you’ve done all editing before you publish and only post the final version so that you don’t have to delete the post, losing any engagement or push quota. This is true for most platforms, but not for WeChat. On the flip side, in the world of digital marketing, we expect that even when we publish something, we can always make amendments. In the world of traditional marketing, once our artwork is printed, we know we can’t make any changes without reprinting or damaging the final artwork. Optimize your WeChat Official Account Tip 1: You will need a business license (either Chinese or foreign) along with other supporting documentation. It takes about 2-3 weeks to set up a WeChat official account, if everything goes smoothly with the WeChat verification process.A WeChat official account is essentially a business or enterprise account that acts as your brand hub, bringing together your followers, blogs, videos, ads, mini programs, circles, and more, in one platform.Here, discover 10 tips to effectively manage your WeChat official account-the premier channel for brands to reach their audiences in China’s new normal.īefore we get started, a quick note on the basics of WeChat official accounts: Regular sailing courses offered by the club, led by trained and experienced teachers, are open to everyone. You can rent a variety of keelboats and dinghies, such as beach catamarans and platus, for recreation or when you feel like some friendly competition. The architecture and some of the photos in this attractive club date back to the time before World War II, but it also has modern amenities including a swimming pool, chalets, restaurants, and swing mooring for both members’ yachts and guests’ yachts. If you’re looking for a peaceful escape from the busy city life, head to the northeast coast of Singapore and visit Changi Sailing Club. The One☁5 Marina Club is the ideal location for sailors, whether they want to spend a fun day on the water or have the ultimate luxury sailing experience. And after working up an appetite out on the lake, you can indulge in one of the several restaurants housed within the club, which serves a variety of gourmet fare. Even if you have no prior sailing experience, whether you are a member or not, you can take advantage of a selection of sailing classes geared to all ability levels. The world-class marina facilities at this unique water playground, which is situated in Singapore’s premier leisure area, are available to boaters and sailors. The One☁5 Marina Club in Sentosa Cove is the place to go if you want to sail in style. The Level 1 Sailing course provides a review of fundamental skills like Man Overboard (MOB), heave-to, launching and recovery, as well as other abilities you learned during the basic sailing course, for adults wishing to advance their talents. Young sailors will learn the fundamentals of sailing throughout this session, including rigging, points of sail, capsize drill, and more. The club provides a variety of classes appropriate for students aged seven and up, including a “Get Kids Afloat” introduction program for young children. SAF Yacht Club in Admiralty is an ideal place to set sail and hone your sailing skills, whether you’re a beginner or an experienced sailor. Constant Wind Seasport NSRCC Sea Sports Centre. Oftentimes it can end up being the latter, but not with Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade. One of the main concerns I always have with a PC port of a console-focused game is whether or not I’ll be able to really tweak the settings with a fine-toothed comb, or if I’ll have to settle with a few presets. So, whether or not you’re sold on the game itself is going to depend on you at this point, but as a PC port, this version of Final Fantasy 7 is overall a great way to play it – especially considering that this also has all the additional content of the Intergrade version. Managing your party member’s stats and your materia is also nicely simplified with conservative tweaks around the edges of the original’s UI. Combat is streamlined into a rather addicting hybrid of real-time and turn-based elements that works perfectly for what this game is trying to do. The same can be said for the game’s combat and various management systems. This adds up to a game that goes down pretty smoothly compared to the original, and feels adequately adapted to more modern sensibilities without losing more than a modicum of the original’s appeal. So, while they did add some things for the remake to make this portion of the story feel fuller, the approach Square Enix took to focus on the first quarter or so of the entire thing here also makes the more important story beats stand out more apparently and have more time to breathe. While Final Fantasy 7 is a rather dense story, this remake is actually only part of the entire saga. If you’ve already played the game on PS4 or PS5, then you likely already know this, but for PC players who are currently on the fence about jumping in, I can assure you the water is fine. "Not only does this version of the remake retain all of the excellence of its console counterpart, but it also offers a healthy bevy of display and performance options that should help just about any type of PC player should be able to get the game running satisfactorily." The characters are given more depth than their 32-bit analogues, and the story – despite a small handful of inscrutable changes – ends up adding just the right amount of gravity in exactly the right places to make the narrative pop off the screen just like it did back in 1997. Despite a couple of years going by, the Final Fantasy 7 Remake still stands among the best ways to spend the better part of 50 hours or so in a video game. When we reviewed Final Fantasy 7 Remake back in April of 2020, we gave it a ten out of ten for its outstanding graphics, top-notch writing and voice acting, and applauded its ability to retain just about everything that made the original so special while still streamlining the minutiae of its combat and various management systems. Not only does this version of the remake retain all of the excellence of its console counterpart, but it also offers a healthy bevy of display and performance options that should help just about any type of PC player should be able to get the game running satisfactorily. That said, I’m happy to report that the PC version of Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade should be an exception to both of these concerns – for the most part. In 2022, you couldn’t be blamed for being a little weary of remakes and maybe even inclined to hold off on purchasing games that come from last-gen PlayStation consoles to PC, as H orizon Zero Dawn and Days Gone both had somewhat rocky starts for their PC launches before getting smoothed over. |
