I'm having trouble aligning 3 sequences together - the total gene (~2500bp) and the forward and reverse sequences that are ~1000bp in length. Now I'm using Clustal X2, but the problem is that the program does complete alignment, which is useless for me right now. Could anyone recommend or suggest any parameters or methods on how to align more that 2 sequences together, but that each sequence is aligned to the first one (the total gene)? Thanks!

Please clarify your specific problem or add additional details to highlight exactly what you need. As it's currently written, it's hard to tell exactly what you're asking. See the How to Ask page for help clarifying this question.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
Your question is not very clear, but I think what you are trying to do is align sequencing results to a reference gene sequence.
Your total gene sequence spans ~2500 bp. It sounds like you have a forward sequence at the start of gene, reading only about 1000 bp and the reverse strand reading in 1000 bp from the end (if this is Sanger sequencing, you likely only have 800-900 bp of accurate base reads by the way). Therefore, you have a gap of about 500 bp in the middle of your gene of interest.
There are (at least) two ways to do the alignment, and I would suggest the manual method if you are trying to verify gene sequencing.
Manual Method:
Semi-Automated Method:
For example:
At the top of this window is a schematic, showing exactly how much of the the query sequence aligns with the subject sequence. The longer the line, the more bases align. Similarly, the closer the colour of the line is to right of the scale (e.g., red), then the more continuous the segment is indicating a longer, continuous alignment.
Below the graphic is a table of results. Briefly, the table highlights all possible alignments that the BLAST algorithm has found, including how much coverage there was, confidence of the alignment and length of alignment coverage.
Below the results table, are the detailed results which were summarized in the table. This detailed report shows you exactly which bases align or mismatch, or any gaps. The top line is the subject sequence; the bottom is the query sequence. The other thing to keep in mind here is the Strand line. In this case, it says "Plus/Plus, meaning that the aligned sequences were the forward sense, or plus strand, of each of subject and query sequence, respectively. If you entered a reverse complement sequence instead (such as the reverse sequencing results) then this would change to "Plus/Minus".
From here, you will still need to manually line these results up to your gene of interest to determine exactly which portion of the gene is missing sequence coverage, as well as any mutations that may have cropped up in the cloning process.
Multiple sequence alignment is a common bioinformatics problem and there are many tools available to solve it.
The paper addresses the following methods:
If you want to align sequencing results over the reference sequence and check the sequences for presence of spontaneous mutations, the easiest way would be to use Sequlator.
Sequlator is a convenient because it has a pairwise alignment, reverse complement, editing and navigation functions but lacks irrelevant functions. With Sequlator one can manipulate any way existing alignments, or manually assemble sequencing reads into an alignment with the reference sequence. After elimination of poorly sequenced fragments, discrepancies with the reference sequence are revealed in the consensus of the resulting alignment. And it is free and Java-based meaning that it works on Windows, Linux and Mac computers
In Mafft, the command to align new sequences to an existing reference alignment is:
See this part of the documentation for more details. It is a nice program to use for alignment, in any case...

I keep hearing about Cloud technology, although mostly in social networking development, etc. I heard about it today again, and now I'm very curious: what is the 'Cloud' and how does it relate to me (in my case, I guess) as a Web Developer? How do I answer the question I keep getting asked—"is it on the cloud?"—without saying "What you are asking is meaningless?"
Sign up

The "Cloud" is a buzzword. It has no definition that doesn't include the word "Cloud" Here is how Dell describes their Cloud:
Oh, so the cloud is IT as a service. Right. I thought the Geek Squad was IT as a service? So, is the cloud the Geek Squad, or is the Geek Squad the cloud? And if the Geek Squad starts offering Cloud services, will a universe ending singularity result? There is no hell hot or deep enough for marketing people.
Basically its the logical progression of clusters, virtualization, and faster internet connections. Companies can specialize in providing storage and processing power, and you can host your application in their cluster, and access it over the internet. And, using virtualization, it can exist in an arbitrary environment unrelated to the actual physical hardware it's running on. Very cool.
The ability to host an application on third party equipment that can be transparently scaled is very powerful. You can create a web presence without having to over-commit on hardware. The specific hardware implementation doesn't matter to developers, so that's nice as well.
The reason they call it the "cloud" is because in traditional network diagrams, the internet, the rest of the world, the WAN, the networking and hardware that is beyond the scope of the immediate diagram, is always represented as a cloud.
The very nature of the cloud as unknown country has persisted to the present day, and is at the root of why no one can satisfactorily describe what the cloud is. The whole point is that you don't know what it is. You don't need to. You just know that you can give your app to Amazon, or IBM, or any other "Cloud" provider, and they'll host it, and bill you based on usage.
When you hear the term "cloud", it is really a (poor) abstract term that runs the gamut from:
The term "cloud" itself is a really poor description of those three things. In general when people refer to "cloud computing" what they are getting at is the paradigm shift where you have specialized providers where you relinquish control of some (or all) of the non-functional concerns of your software as opposed to both hosting, writing, and managing everything yourself.
Long before "The Cloud" was a buzzword, people drawing network diagrams would draw all the clients, servers, routers, and switches under their direct control, and the connections between them, but traditionally just draw a cloud for parts of the network they don't control. For some examples do a google image search for PSTN (public switched telephone network). The cloud represents a nebulous thing our wires go into and out of. We don't have to understand how it works because other people take care of that. We just trust the packets to come back out in the right place on the other side. Usually the internet is drawn as a cloud, because once your packets hit your ISP, you trust that it knows how to get them to the right place and don't care what specific routers it travels through.
"Cloud computing" in a nutshell refers to services that are hosted inside the cloud on your home or business's network diagram, i.e. the internet. The hardware isn't under your direct control, you just send your data "into the cloud" and trust your vendor to process and store it so it's available for you when you need to pull it back out. The buzz word meaning of it also implies that the things now being handled "in the cloud" were traditionally the domain of a local computer. You might traditionally have had a backup server, but switched to a service like carbonite that does your backups "in the cloud." You previously used MS office on your local desktop, but now use google docs, etc.
As a web developer what it means to you is that customers are often looking for ways to replace services traditionally handled by desktop computers with web applications. Being able to replace and not merely supplement desktop software may give you a competitive edge.
A lot of people have admirably explained what cloud is, So I will try to address what cloud can bring to you (a web developer) in addition to unicorns and golden rainbows: (with shameless plugs to our technology)
There are a lot more at http://aws.amazon.com/. Check it out! Obviously, this is all from AMZN, Others like Google have competitive offerings as well.
The problem is "Cloud" is a somewhat ambiguous meaning (in scope).
The minimum most people think when they hear "Cloud" is virtualized infrastructure and it's benefits:
By the way you don't always get everything in the list, and even if you do it may not be 100%. You can Google for what happened to "AWS US East Outage" for a real world example.
People will also sometimes add on other services as part of "Cloud" like Database, Logging, and any other service which kind of straddles the space between "infrastructure" and "application".
Some people also use "Cloud" as a synonym for "virtual". Sometimes people also use it to mean "Software and Platform As a Service".
Cloud is just another word for the internet. It is becoming more buzz now as the internet matures enough for organisations to rely upon it for important software services, so we keep hearing about things like SAAS.

Is there any difference between these two terms, or they describe the same thing?
They are two distinct terms - they aren't related.
Gamma changes the difference between dark and light areas. Decreasing Gamma makes dark areas lighter and light areas darker. Increasing Gamma makes dark areas darker and light areas lighter. It's more akin to contrast than anything.
Brightness decreases the range of lightness without changing the starting dark point. So decreasing brightness simply darkens, increasing brightness simply lightens.

OncoLink News In Focus: Soy foods get a boost - Are they good for you?
Marilynn Larkin, MA
Last week, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) authorized the use on food labels of health claims about the association between soy protein and reduced risk of coronary heart disease. Although the authorization was specific to heart disease, some stories that appeared in the lay press may have been misleading. For example, a wire service story ran with a headline "FDA: Soy foods can be labeled as 'good for you'"; unless you read past the lead paragraphs, you might have thought soy received a blanket recommendation. In addition, at least two universities issued press releases about soy studies (in cells and in mice) which suggested some possible benefits of soy in cancer.
But while soy's effectiveness in heart disease has been substantiated, "in cancer, it is still a question mark," says registered dietitian Katrina Claghorn, a nutrition specialist at the University of Pennsylvania's Cancer Center. "Most assumptions about the benefits of soy in cancer are from epidemiological (population) studies, and more recently, from some animal studies. But it hasn't really gone beyond that. And some animal studies show that soy could actually promote certain cancers. So we're still trying to formulate what it is in the soy that may be protective, and what may be potentially harmful, and how it applies, remembering that all cancers are not the same."
There are components in soy which appear to offer some protection against colon cancer, Ms. Claghorn notes. But if you have estrogen-positive breast cancer, "there's a feeling that you probably should not have large quantities of soy because we don't know the impact of the phytoestrogens they contain. It's possible they could have the same cancer-promoting effects as estrogen."
If you are taking tamoxifen for breast cancer, or if you have a family history of breast cancer, you should also be cautious about the amount of soy you ingest, she cautions.
Therefore, the bottom line for soy in cancer is not the same as for heart disease. The recommendation is about 35 milligrams (mg) of soy isoflavones daily, and "up to 50 milligrams at most," she says. What does this mean in real terms? A half cup of tofu or tampeh has 35 mg of isoflavones, whereas a cup of soy milk has 20 mg.
"Don't go overboard, and eat the food in its whole form, rather than taking protein powders. When soy is in a food, it's also with other compounds, including vitamins and minerals, that contribute to the benefit," she advises. And when possible, choose lowfat varieties. "Some people think all soy products are low in fat, but that's definitely not true. A half cup of lowfat tofu has about 1.5-2.5 grams of fat, whereas the same size serving of regular tofu has between 5.5-6.5 grams of fat. It's the same with soy milk--one cup of lowfat has 2 grams of fat; regular soy milk has 4 grams."
For more information on soy, visit the US Soyfoods Directory of the Indiana Development Council, Talk Soy, the website of the United Soybean Board, and the USDA isoflavone database, which gives isoflavone values for 128 soyfoods and ingredients.

2 questions:
Question 1
My job blocks ssh which means that I cannot ssh to my home server. However, they do allow https out. Is there a package out there for ubuntu that will allow me to connect to the command line via https? I already have apache installed and can install additional software if needed.
Question 2
We use Samba at home on our ubuntu server (same server as in question 1). How do I configure it so that a) password change on a regular interval and b) when its time to change the password, windows (7 in this case) will display a pop-up window asking the user to change the password. Note: to connect to the server, I created a batch file which uses "net use" commands.

I own a Macbook Pro with Retina display. Assuming I'm only interested in displaying photos on the screen, is the Retina display calibrated well enough for colors? If not, which method would you recommend to use?
In general, every monitor has subtle differences on them, so if you really need a high-standard calibration, you should do it to your equipment.
There are many softwares you can use to calibrate your monitor. For example, take a look at SpyderElite , for about $170.
This is not really a bad question if you aren't already well versed in color management. After all, the Retina display is hyped as a pretty fantastic, beats-the-pants-off-of-everything-else display.
But if all you want to do is look at the pictures on the screen, then you only need to use your own judgement whether you like it or not.
But if you are going to reproduce images as prints, then you are concerned about color management. Any display you use for color management should be calibrated. And it should be calibrated periodically to account for aging and other changes. This includes Retina displays.
You also need to follow other detailed (but easy to implement) color management processes to get what you see on your screen to match what you see in your reproductions.
Step through the Display preferences built-in color calibration tool, and see what you think from there.

Velodyne has an established, 30-year foothold in the audio industry and has catered to those that expect and demand high-quality sound. This started with our ground-breaking subwoofer technology in the 1980's and has continued on to our first headphone released in 2010 to our most recent headphones released this year. With the ubiquity of iPods and smart phones in recent years, everyone from kids to teens to adults of all ages have been utilizing headphones for portable audio. Trends have certainly developed as headphones have become a fashion accessory. Listeners have become much more conscious of the color, shape and size of the headphones that they are wearing in addition to (and sometimes in place of!) the sound quality.
Veldodyne products do not require you to compromise your listening experience for the sake of appearances. Our on-ear vFree wireless headphones are available in black, white and silver. Skins designed by our President and recognized public artist Marta Hall, are now available for our vFree headphones to allow for customization, personalization and expression of style while being able to enjoy the music free of cords if you wish. The sleek style and modern look of the vFree headphones is extremely attractive but our spot-on style doesn't end there.
Our vTrue studio headphones are in a luxury class all their own. Made from forged aluminum and genuine, supple leather, our vTrue headphones epitomize function and fashion – providing excellent sound quality and clean bass. The vTrue headphones are large over-ear headphones which make them comfortable to wear and provide a great seal to block out outside noise. With the recent popularity of all things retro, the large pads and ear cup design have really struck the fancy of true audiophiles who appreciate the crisp, true sound of the music and the bass output Velodyne customers have come to expect.
Our vPulse in-ear headphones are an extremely versatile product. Available in black, pink and our signature "Velodyne electric blue", the vPulse provide plenty of variety in the color department. The vPulse utilize a flat cord which has gained popularity recently due to its tendency to tangle less than the standard round shaped cords. The vPulse are equipped with a mic and controls located on the left hand cord which is a recent trend that we have seen from headphones which allows you to easily switch from music to phone calls and gives you the ability to control volume and playback without having reach into your pocket.
Consumer electronics is an industry that is constantly evolving with trends and new advancements in technology. In regards to fashion, sometimes the old becomes new again. But one thing can be certain, the only thing that is constant is change. Velodyne is here for the long haul, to evolve and advance with technology and trends. Stay tuned for new headphones to be released later this year. You won't be disappointed!

5 Pop Culture Creations Spoiled by Their Own Creators
It's getting tougher and tougher to avoid spoilers nowadays. Faced with endless blogs, Twitter updates and overzealous talk show hosts, it's easy to have major parts of a movie or TV show ruined before you get to watch it. Hell, it's basically expected -- but what's surprising is when the network, studio or publisher itself is the one doing everything possible to give away the ending of the same thing they're trying to get people to watch. This happens more often than you think, like when ...
CAUTION: Major spoilers ahead, in case that needed to be any clearer.
#5. AMC Gives Away a Major Character Death in The Walking Dead
One of the biggest draws of AMC's apocalyptic zombie drama The Walking Dead is that no one is safe. Any character could die at any moment from causes ranging from "zombie bite" to "hillbilly with a crossbow," to the point where the show might as well be called The Walking De- oh, wait, we see what they did there.
Good one. Now kill Carl, please.
Anyway, there's no better example of that than the next to last episode of Season 2, where a major character bites the dust, and then bites the dust underneath that dust, making the drastic transition from living to undead to just plain dead within the span of a few minutes. Shane, a disgruntled ex-police officer played by Jon Bernthal, attempts to kill his former partner and "best friend," Rick (Andrew Lincoln), for reasons you would know if you'd just give in to your friends and watch the damn show already.
Rick is forced to stab Shane, who even in death continues being a douchebag and goes after his buddy again as a zombie. Finally, Rick's son, Carl, shows up and shoots Zombie Shane with a gun in the one instance in this show where the gross parental neglect actually helped anyone.
"Carl, if you shoot me, I'm going to significantly reduce your allowance!"
Shane was maybe the second most important character on the show -- his death was the equivalent of Jerry being forced to brutally kill Kramer, which is why it was saved for one of the final episodes of the season. As such, it came as a shock to many viewers ... unless, of course, they'd seen the following ad on AMC's site a couple of weeks before:
E! Online
The screwdriver is for your ears during Lori's scenes.
Before the second season had even ended, AMC started promoting pre-orders for the Blu-ray box set of the same season on their website. Which is great and all, but take a closer look at the extras detailed in the description:
E! Online
"And don't forget to Wikipedia 'Michonne'!"
Wait a minute, "Shane's last episode"?! That's right: With three episodes still to go before the end of the season, someone at AMC carelessly spoiled the fact that Shane wouldn't make it to the next one.
Now, it's true that Shane also died in the comic series the show is based on, but they'd already deviated from the story by making him survive way longer than he did there, so as far as fans knew, he could have stayed alive for the entire duration of the show. Obviously, the auto-spoiler was followed by fan outcry, and AMC even released a statement claiming that the ad was unauthorized and that "the matter is currently under investigation."
#4. NBC Tries Their Hardest to Ruin the Olympics
Look, it's not NBC's fault that the rotation of the Earth means that the day starts in London several hours before it does in America. But NBC's decision to time-delay their broadcast of the 2012 Summer Olympics turned millions of American viewers into that guy at the office who TiVo'd the last episode of Lost and had to spend all day avoiding human contact so that nobody spoiled the ending for him.
"Two dollars is your change, and they were like dead the whole time or something."
And it doesn't help when NBC does the spoiling all by itself.
For example, one of the most anticipated events for U.S. viewers was Michael Phelps' return to the swimming pool. To celebrate Phelps' distinguished career, NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams opened the show immediately preceding the race by saying, "And while we try to be sensitive about spoiler alerts for our viewers, Michael Phelps got crushed in the pool today."
David Shankbone
"We know you want to be surprised. Sadly, we possess less than half the shits necessary to make that happen."
Then there was the NBC affiliate that warned viewers to mute their TVs if they didn't want to be exposed to any spoilers ... and then showed them this:
The Daily Show
"Oh, and if you don't want to see this, look away. Probably should have mentioned that before we told you to mute it."
But the worst example involves 17-year-old Missy Franklin, who went on to win four gold medals in her Olympic debut. Let's say you spend the entire day locked away in a cabin in the middle of the woods with no Internet connection and no phone, just to make sure you avoid all spoilers -- you go through the entire day, then you turn on the TV to watch Missy compete in the women's 100-meter backstroke event. You tune in just in time to catch the presenter announcing that the race is coming up after some ads ...
Daily Mail
"Normally I'd fast-forward the commercials, but something tells me I should watch these."
... and the first ad starts with the words "When you're 17 years old and win your first gold medal ..."
Daily Mail
"And now we take you to Missy's race, where she came in first and won the first place gold medal!"
Yep, NBC decided to air a Today Show promo featuring Missy's victory right before the competition she went on to win, giving away the ending to one of the most dramatic personal stories the Olympics had to offer. But hey, at least they didn't replace the entire event with Ryan Seacrest's face (that's reserved for more trivial stuff, like tributes to victims of terrorism).
#3. Amazon.com Spoils The Hunger Games in a Billboard Ad
Promoting the last book in a trilogy can be a tricky thing, because you're supposed to build up excitement for existing fans while not spoiling the previous books for everyone else. The moment you announce that the sequel even exists, you're already telling fans that (for instance) the main character didn't die in the last one. But otherwise, you have to keep things vague, because part of the point of doing a sequel is making people go back and buy the original.
"I really wanted to bring the culmination of my artistic vision to life. Also, money."
And then you have what Amazon.com did with the Hunger Games series.
After the massive worldwide success of the first Hunger Games movie, Amazon decided to use Mockingjay (the final installment of the trilogy) as part of their advertisement for their new Kindle e-book reader: They plastered some billboards in Washington, D.C., with the first page of the book, shown within the screen of their big calculator-looking gadget. The problem? That page happens to give away the ending of the previous book, and the shocking twist ending of the upcoming movie, Catching Fire. Here it is:
Huffington Post
Thanks to the E Ink display, spoilering has never been so energy-efficient!
For those of you not well-versed in YA literature, Catching Fire ends when the series' protagonist, Katniss, learns that her home "town," District 12, has been bombed to shit, partly because of her actions -- that's the ending twist, the "Luke, I am your father" of the book. Had anyone at Amazon bothered to so much as glance at the page they were about to use in their ads, they probably could have guessed that it was something important. This was either a deliberate ploy to get attention, or an act of supreme laziness.
"There's a lot of books back there ... are we supposed to read all of them before we plaster it on a billboard?"
While Catching Fire was originally published in late 2009 (meaning that fans had three years to catch up on the story), keep in mind that those fans multiplied many times over when the movie based on the first book came out in March of 2012, which was only about a month before this ad went up. Those who decided to watch the movies before reading the books (or just stick to the movies) knew they had to be on the lookout for spoilers, but they probably didn't know this involved "not looking out the window."

that is what they should have found out.
Peppers at 10, which seems low.
We interrupt your regularly scheduled afternoon to bring you this important science (Science!) update, courtesy of ESPN Sport Science and HT ChuckWood. It has a 15-second Wodka commercial introduction that's worth waiting through. Follow either link for findings such as:
Denard Robinson is made of dilithium. Science!
that is what they should have found out.
this lasting for nones of seconds.
Update/Edit: this was in reply to a douche nozzle whose reply has since been deleted. Carry on.
Respect your use of "nozzle" over "bag". Kudos.
60% of his passes.....he completes every pass....its science.
He musks up not with Sex Panther, but with Sex Cheetah. (it has real cheetah bits)
That is all.
I second that emotion.
Next February they do a core sample to find a solution to this energy crisis of ours...
GM fuel cell research has found that just 1g of his dread clippings will power a Chevy Suburban for over 700 miles.
I am torn. On the one hand, Denard!!! Most awesome M player in the history of ever, and nice to see him get the hype.
On the other hand, Denard is getting an NFL evaluation. These types of measurables are the type of thing that could go into a very positive evaluation, especially if he is being eveluated as an ATH. I really want Denard to come back next year.
Nard isn't going anywhere. He loves this team too much. He'll be back in 2012.
I get the impression that he'd have to be almost guaranteed a first round pick to even think about declaring early, and as much as I loves me some Denard, I don't think he's there yet, at any position.
Sports Science == Fred Jackson.
Must've been version 1.0, Rick Leach, Steve Smith?
Why didn't you just front page the post?
Or is that only possible with Diaries, and not posts? (in a technical, computer type manner)
I think it was just an effort to use a photo of Bill Nye the Science Guy
I fully support any effort of such nature.
Really META but yeah it's technically doable but creates problems. There's several things involved:
11 mph in four steps. Four steps going downstairs with a running start that is.
but by step five I'm body surfing headlong down said staircase.
Astronauts experience 3 g's for minutes, Denard experiences them for a fraction of a second. A better comparison of how that g-force feels would be how anybody feels at the bottom of a rollercoaster, 3-4g's for a very brief instant of time.
He's still one of the only people that can do that though, so I guess astronaut/Space Bitches comparison is valid.
I saw Denard run by being chased by a cheetah, Oh, Uhh....nevermind!
Other way around - that was Denard chasing a cheetah. It's one of his favorite games when he has free time . . .
Denard is what happens when you level up to 100 in acrobatics skills. It breaks the game.
Like, arian foster, crossed with mike vick, only a better qb, and also a space shuttle?

Quadruple Post!!!
You don't say!!
is awesome! We all think he is coming back right? After another off-season and spring ball and the practice time before the season that will only help him more.He will have a chance to be drafted in the first round. He has already out peformed micheal vick in college. He needs to work on his accuracy and gain some weight.
Not sure if serious, but ... no.
There was a book by a physicist a few years ago (The Physics of Football) which also noted the tremendous forces at work when runners cut and change directions. Barry Sanders was the example used in the book and he and Denard must have incredibly strong ankle ligaments and be very fit to withstand the sudden stops and shifts. It isn't just a linear 2-3+ G accleration. It is going from +1-2 to 0 and then 2-3 in the opposite direction.
I love Sports Science. Impressive stuff

Denard is so fast . . . he won the Indy 500. Without a car.
Denard is so fast . . . it takes light 8 minutes to reach the earth from the sun. Denard can do it in 4.
Denard is so fast . . . by the time you hear "Hike", he's already in the end zone.
Denard is so fast . . . [Your turn].
Denard is so fast . . . He read your entire post before he got bored.
Just kidding, I like you.
The arc of the dilithium time bend has an odd correlation to the year 1997. Denard played several series for the national championship team as an all-around. Also there is some speculation that the "tacopants" phenomenon is actually an echo in the space/time continuum, a side effect of bending time.
Denard's so fast... he can catch his own passes
Denard's so fast... he goes home to Deerfield Beach for Sunday Dinner
Denard's so fast... he outran the neutrinos at CERN
Denard's so fast... he can watch the sunset for hours at a time
Denard's so fast... he (like the space shuttle) can escape the gravitational pull of Charlie Weis
I am currently not a fan of any NFL team. Actually, I never have been, but I will be a fan of the team that Denard goes to.
I'm not really a huge fan of any NFL teams... whenever I'm watching a game I tend to root for the team with the most Wolverines on it. But I have a feeling Denard's team will be my new favorite team.

I created an AMP web application that was originally going to be served from a traditional 3rd party host.
As we finished up, the client decided to host it internally, on a server in their office network. The application is only meant to be available to staff members, but those staff members will often be off-site. I had no involvement in setting up their network, which uses at least one server running windows server 2003. The client machines I saw were XP.
I set up Apache, MySQL and PHP on the server 2003 machine, and installed the application. The application is built on the CodeIgniter framework, so I set the base_url to the internal IP (192.168...), and we tested from within the network. Everything worked fine.
Next, we asked their network guy to open port 80 for apache. I set the base_url to the external IP, and tested from my home (using the external IP as the web address), and it works fine.
However, when attempting to access the application using the external IP from within the network, they're unable to connect. I can reset the base_url to the network IP, and they can access it using the network IP, but then it the application fails when connecting externally (since the base_url, used throughout the application, is pointing to the internal IP).
It suppose I could let CodeIgniter determine the base_url (by leaving the variable as an empty string), but would rather figure out why the external IP fails in-network, and try to correct that.
The server we're using is not dedicated to the AMP stack (in fact, it has at least one other application broadcasting to the internet that must have been using IIS, as well as an FTP server used for office scanners), so I suppose there might be some conflicts there.
I know very little about windows networking. A quick search suggested this might be because of NAT, but didn't offer a work-around.
Their network guy has no suggestions, and said that everything should be fine.
Is it possible to have users inside the network access the Apache server using the external IP, and if so, what needs to happen to enable that?

I'm trying to blow my friend up on our server to get back at him :) The problem is, it doesn't work for some reason. My TNT is connected to a detector track, but it isn't activated by minecart going over that detector. Here's a video of my setup. In the video, I put the minecart on the detector. I then show you the circuit and how it doesn't ignite the TNT. I found that when the minecart stays on the trigger, it actually activates 2nd batch of TNT, which was quite a surprise, since I tested it by riding the minecart and it didn't trigger anything.
So the question is: Where is the problem on the non-exploded side of the trap? and why doesn't minecart trigger the trap at all when it just runs over the detector track?

But after the reading I have done on the net, and the Kanban examples I saw... it seems it's not in the philosophy of this tool to accept failure.
I don't want to open my question to opinions discussion... I'm just wondering if it is in the philosophy of Kanban to track failures.

Early Peeks at Data Draw Scrutiny
Sen. Grassley Seeks Information on Arrangement With University of Michigan
A senior senator launched an investigation into an arrangement in which the University of Michigan sells early peeks at its consumer-sentiment survey to a select group of investors through Thomson Reuters Corp. TRI -0.45 %
In a letter sent last week, Sen. Charles Grassley (R., Iowa), the top Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, asked the university to answer questions about the arrangement and to provide a copy of the contract and any other similar contracts it might have entered into.
"My concern is that the [university's] decision to allow preferential access" to the report "may not be in the public interest," Mr. Grassley wrote.
Rick Fitzgerald, a University of Michigan spokesman, said the university had received Sen. Grassley's letter and was reviewing it. Mr. Grassley asked the university to respond by July 26.
Last week, Thomson Reuters agreed to temporarily suspend its practice of sending a two-second advance release of the University of Michigan survey to high-speed traders who pay Thomson Reuters a premium for the service amid an investigation by the New York attorney general into whether the arrangement complies with state laws. The Wall Street Journal highlighted the practice in a page-one article last month.
Thomson Reuters declined to comment. Last week, a company spokesman said it "strongly believes that news and information companies can legally distribute nongovernmental data and exclusive news through services provided to fee-paying subscribers."
The Journal's story last month documented a huge amount of trading in the two seconds that traders had exclusive access to the disappointing results of the University of Michigan's consumer-confidence survey on March 15. Volume in a key exchange-traded fund skyrocketed to 310,000 shares in those two seconds, up from 1,000 shares in the previous two seconds. Nearly two-thirds of those trades were negative; those bets paid off when the ETF's share price fell as much as 27 cents over the next five minutes.
Unlike indicators the government publishes, such as the Labor Department's monthly jobs report, few rules govern the release of economic and industry reports put out by nongovernmental entities. The latter can move markets just as much, putting individual investors and others who don't pay for early access to them at an informational disadvantage. In today's markets, in which high-speed, computer-driven trading accounts for much of daily trading volume, an advantage of just a few seconds can be enough to provide a substantial investing edge.
Under their contract, Thomson Reuters has agreed to pay the University of Michigan $1.1 million this year for rights to distribute its findings, a fee that will rise to $1.2 million in 2014. In turn, Thomson Reuters' subscribers who want to see those findings before anyone else pay the media company as much as $6,025 a month.
Mr. Grassley has been looking into how various investors get market-moving data in legal ways from the government and other public institutions.
In his letter, Mr. Grassley said the rise of high-frequency trading has made it more important for certain investors to get market-moving information quickly. "Technological innovations in trading speed create opportunities but also present difficult questions for legislators and regulators," he wrote.

I'm in need of some tunes for my game. Where can I procure some, preferably for free?
closed as not constructive by Josh Petrie♦, Tetrad♦ Jan 21 '12 at 20:22
As it currently stands, this question is not a good fit for our Q&A format. We expect answers to be supported by facts, references, or expertise, but this question will likely solicit debate, arguments, polling, or extended discussion. If you feel that this question can be improved and possibly reopened, visit the help center for guidance.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
There's a great (long) list of music/sound sources at UnityAnswers: Where can I find music or sound effects for my game?. A sampler of some of the free ones:
If you're interested in creating a large amount of music (for one game or many in the future), I'd recommend grabbing some easy to use music creation software (like GarageBand on OSX, or ACID on Windows). It's pretty easy to create some basic tracks with the included samples, and you can pretty affordably find more samples.
Don't think you can write music? Do what I've done for a long time: stitch together the classics. Go to your local music store and find some sheet music for Beethoven or other copyright-expired orchestrations. Don't borrow the whole arrangements (they're often copyrighted), but grab a few bars of the melody or harmony. Shift it a few keys or try it with some odd instrumentation. The results can be pretty solid.
When it comes to music that is mostly original, I am very fond of the Newgrounds Audio Portal. Of course you have to ask for permission first, and abide by the Creative Commons restrictions that the creator has placed, but in general its very nice.
There is alot of talent there though.
The pygame site has lots of links to music resources.
Tons of free, creative commons music.
Unfortunately, finding free music is difficult, but you can at least find some royalty-free music. Here's a site I came across yesterday that had some really good sounding stuff.
I love the netlabels section of Archive.org for this purpose. Lots and lots of interesting music that is [mostly] freely available for use (check individual licenses). Great search capability too.
I would say it is for background pieces or ambiance more than anything.
Following the line of Creative Commons license, you can find a lot of content here: http://labs.creativecommons.org/demos/search/search1/?q=
This guy:
Posted this on Happy Penguin some time ago:
Offering his music for free in games, so long as they complied with some sort of FOSS licence.
I would definitely check out the Kongregate Collabs. The licenses are all different (usually free for noncommercial use, but some things there allow commercial use for free), but you can find some pretty good compositions.
Again, there are a lot of other places already mentioned, like the free sound project.
Jamendo has a massive collection of excellent quality music tracks which are mostly under various Creative Commons licenses:
Look out for the "No Derivatives" tag. The definition of a derivative work is somewhat vague, so its best to avoid them, or ask the artist/composer. "Share-Alike" could also be a bit iffy.
The site likes to mention that you should pay up for Jamendo Pro in order to use tracks for commercial works, but if the track is under a compatible Creative Commons licence (ie, CC-BY), then you don't have to pay up (although obviously its always a good idea to make sure the music creator gets a share of the profits, they deserve it!) Of course, if the track is under a non-compatible CC licence, then you will have to pay up, or ask the artist nicely.
I am affiliated with this site. Our goal is to connect musicians with companies (or people) in need of music. Musicians provide some of their music for free, in order to try and sell more of their music later. All the music on our community site is free and licensed under a Creative Commons license. The music on Tribe of Noise PRO is not free.

A fire of unknown origin burned a very small patch of grass on the south side of a storage shed at the Genesis Center at 123 North Oak. Firefighters responded in non-emergency mode to the fire that was already put out with a fire extinguisher. The firefighters sprayed water on the burned grass. The fire started about 4:30 p.m. and firefighters were at the scene under 30 minutes. The shed was not damaged.

Joseph L. Henderson, M.D., was born on August 31, 1903, in Elko, Nevada. He began his analysis with C.G. Jung in 1929 and continued to work with Jung until 1938, when he completed his medical training at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, London. In 1941, he moved to San Francisco and began his psychiatric and analytic practice. Dr. Henderson was one of the founders of the Society of Jungian Analysts of Northern California (1950), and for the past 53 years he has been an important teacher and training analyst to several generations of analysts. [additional text follows the photographs]
As cofounder of the Jung Institute in San Francisco , he is twice its past president, and he has been influential in the professional development of many subsequent Jungian analysts in their various endeavors. He also was instrumental in the San Francisco Institute acquiring a large collection of images with their psychological commentary, which became the Archive for Research and Archetypal Symbolism, otherwise known as ARAS .
He traveled frequently to both England and Switzerland where, after World War II, he continued to see Jung and other colleagues. He was elected Vice President of the International Association for Analytical Psychology in 1962 and served only one term, finding that he preferred writing to political activity.
His writings include the following books: The Wisdom of the Serpent co-written with Maude Oakes in 1963, a chapter entitled "Ancient Myths and Modern Man" in Man and His Symbols edited by Jung, 1964, Thresholds of Initiation, 1967, reprinted in 2005, Cultural Attitudes in Psychological Perspective, 1983, a compilation of essays entitled Shadow and Self, 1990, and Transformation of the Psyche 2003, co-authored with Dyane Sherwood. He has written numerous papers on such diverse subjects as anthropology with special reference to the American Indian, relations between East and West, clinical issues related to transference/counter transference, aspects of dream interpretation, the use of art in psychotherapy, and alchemical symbolism in analysis. Dr. Henderson developed the concept of the "cultural unconscious", which he introduced in an address at the 2nd International Jungian Congress in Zurich in 1962. This idea has evolved in to the hypothesis of the "cultural complex" which has received much attention lately in the Jungian world. In addition he has written numerous movie and book reviews.
He practiced and taught Jungian analysis and analytical psychology from 1938 until his retirement in 2005. He has been a source of inspiration and professional wisdom for many generations of Jungian analysts, and his practice has included significant individuals from many other fields of endeavor.

On my phone my number looks something like +19172222222 but I think people from different countries have their own codes right? Should I leave out the + and 1 when handing them my number so they don't get confused? Is different when people dial me from foreign mobiles as oppose to landlines? In what form should I give my number?
Which digits should I eliminate when giving my number to foreign travellers so as to not confuse them?
+1 917-222-2222 is the best form. You may use spaces instead of the hyphens. The form is:
The important part for international callers is to have the country prefix first, starting with the
For, say, a UK number, you would write +44 123-456-7890, where 44 is the international prefix for the UK, 123 is the area code (of variable length in the UK) and the rest is the local number. UK locals would know to dial 01234567890 (0 being the long distance prefix), and locals of the 123 area would know to dial 4567890. If you want to make sure nationals aren't confused about the international prefix, you can present your number in two ways:
The form you've written is the least confusing.
+1 is the country code for the US and 917 is your area code in NYC, but leaving them out accomplishes nothing. Locals will know which ones they can drop (actually, in your case none, because NYC uses 10 digit dialing to increase available numbers).
It is impossible to screw up a phone number by providing too much information.
As others have said, a number with a "+" in front is probably the best form and should always work (certainly on mobile phones).
Many people will have numbers in their directories that might not work outside of their home country like "01528889" or "0678294000" (those would be valid numbers in the Netherlands for example) or "0033145900087" (this is a valid French number, with country code, as dialed on a Dutch phone but "00" might not work everywhere). Those are the ones that need to be modified to avoid confusing people.

I'm a trigonometry teaching assistant this semester and have a perhaps basic question about the motivation for using the circle in the study of trigonometry. I certainly understand Pythagorean Theorem and all that (I would hope so if I'm a teaching assistant!) but am looking for more clarification on why we need the circle, not so much that we can use it.
I'll be more specific- to create an even angle incrementation, it seems unfeasible, for example, to use the line $y = -x+1$, divide it into even increments, and then draw segments to the origin to this lattice of points, because otherwise $\tan(\pi/3)$ would equal $(2/3)/(1/3)=2$. But why mathematically can't we do this?

In my Application, activity A is launcher activity, from A it called B and from B it called C, I have such more than 5 activities. In C when I press home button, and again open my app it open C, that is fine in my case. But after pressing home button in C, when it idle for some time and application is killed, after that when I open my app it opens C. But I want to open main launcher activity that time. How can I do this?
A > B > C > HOME button > idle for some time > application killed > open app > C.
In this case I want to open main activity A instead of C.

The General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger is a 30 mm, hydraulically-driven seven-barrel Gatling-type rotary cannon that's mounted on the A-10 Thunderbolt II. So what the heck is it doing next to a Type 1 Beetle?
A pretty common urban legend about the GAU-8/A Avenger is that the recoil force matches the thrust of the A-10's General Electric TF34-GE-100 turbofan engines causing the plane to slow down, stall and subsequently crash if the gun were fired for a prolonged period of time. It's even been claimed that the plane would begin to fly backwards, but that's silly since we all know that only UFOs can do that...duh! The actual recoil force of the GAU-8/A Avenger is 10,000 pounds-force, equivalent to 45 kN, which is much less than the maximum 82.6 kN combined thrust of the TF34-GE-100 turbofan engines. Consider this myth busted.

As the bomb squads were checking the schools, parents and families were making sure their children were safe.
One fourth grader's grandmother told her frantic story.
"It's very upsetting. Kids like to get out over snow, or rain, or over floods, but it's a very sad situation when their lives are being threatened," Diane White says.
When she heard the news of the bomb threats this morning, she was asked to pick up her 10-year-old grandson.
"I said where is your book-bag and he said, 'We could not bring anything with us, be had to just leave with everything'," she recalls.
She believes this shows the school's urgency to move students to a safe location, but the incident also frightened some students.
"He just doesn't understand you know why people would want to scare people," she says.
She says something as big as a bomb threat, affects everyone in this little town.
"The parents and everything at the church where they were picking up, they were in a rush, and in a hassle," she says, "We're a close-knit community. People just get their children, their family and be together and they stay at home."
Ashley McKinney is a WKU education student.
She was shadowing a teacher when the first threat came in.
"From what I could tell the school system did a really good job you know making sure and locking down the gym getting the students to safety. I really do believe that they were doing everything that they could," McKinney says.
And today was a repeat performance.
"They responded quickly down there and did have the dog checking at the high school and at the other schools," White says.
All schools were found clear, but Diane White worries these threats will truly affect the students feeling safe at school.
The Metcalfe County Superintendent also says students were kept safe and out of harm's way the entire day.

Can I integrate Physics simulation like Box2D in Animator?
Can I create some realistic physics with Sencha Animator such as using Box2D with this tool?
14 May 2012 4:16 PM #2
Sencha Animator is based on CSS3 Animations, which are mostly static at the moment. If you need to have dynamic animations (e.g. for physics simulations) you could use Animator to create the stage/elements and then use your own library to animated them.
14 May 2012 4:31 PM #3
Thanks for your response Arnebech. Can you give me any suggestion for some physics engine that I can use with the animation I created in Animator?

"Underage drinking and excessive drinking have negative effects on everything we're trying to do as a university. They compromise the educational environment, the safety of our students, the quality of life on campus, town/gown relationships, and our reputation."
—Dr. Judith Ramaley, Former President, University of Vermont
Other than the damage and injuries that occur during spring break each year,
the only consequences of college drinking that usually come to the public's
attention are occasional student deaths from alcohol overuse (e.g., alcohol
poisoning) or other alcohol-related tragedies. They prompt a brief flurry of
media attention; then, the topic disappears until the next incident. In fact,
the consequences of college drinking are much more than occasional; at least
1,400 college student deaths a year are linked to alcohol, as new research described
in this report reveals. High-risk drinking also results in serious injuries,
assaults, and other health and academic problems, and is a major factor in damage
to institutional property. The relative scarcity of headlines about college
drinking belies an important fact: the consequences of excessive college drinking
are more widespread and destructive than most people realize. While only isolated
incidents tend to make news, many school presidents conclude that these pervasive,
albeit less obvious, problems are occurring on their campuses at the same time.
It is a persistent and costly problem that affects virtually all residential
colleges, college communities, and college students, whether they drink or not.
The call to action on campus has to do not so much with drinking per se, but with the consequences of excessive drinking by college students. Students who drink excessively have higher rates of injuries, assaults, academic problems, arrests, vandalism, and other health and social problems, compared with their nondrinking counterparts. They disrupt the studies and threaten the health and safety of their peers.

@AgueroSergioKun was one of the first to take to Twitter to offer congratulations to Wigan for their win: "It sad it wasn't meant to be, but there's always payback in football. Wigan is a worthy champion. Thanks to @MCFC fans for standing by us"
In spite of his disappointment in missing out on the cup final, Costel was first to console a devastated Joe Hart.
"Great dignity in defeat by Manchester City and their players. We seldom mention such things" – Gary Lineker.
Vincent Kompany also took to Twitter to praise the Latics: "Congratulations Wigan with their FA Cup victory. There are many reasons why they deserved the win more than we did."
BBC Chief Football Writer @philmcnulty said: "Man City will have been bitterly disappointed today but both club & supporters very magnanimous in defeat."
Wigan Athletic fan @MarkRainford87: "Man City, your fans are quality. Completely gracious in defeat and a credit to football. Well done sky blues."
Young Matija has had an excellent first season with the Blues and was one of the more visibly devastated players at the whistle.

A distraught Roberto gives his post-match views to the international media.
City supporter @CatLovesSports said: "City fans are the classiest. Never bitterness on my TL, just hearty congratulations to a good side. Love this club."

@MattGreenough on Twitter: "Fair play to City supporters who stayed behind to applaud Wigan lifting the cup. Those are my kind of football fans. #FACup #respect"

"Now this season has practically gone we need to come back next season stronger and try to win something again."

What a way to kick off my own WSSC Conference experience 2013 … a day of POWER- SPINPOWER™! Learning from one of the top power specialists in the industry, Angie Sturtevant delivered the new SPINPOWER™ instructor training to many eager Master Instructors from around the globe. So incredible to have the team together to learn about the program and the share the experience!
I am very excited to begin playing on these state-of-the-art bikes and getting more out of my own workouts. Seeing the "power" (or lack thereof!) was a humbling experience and reminded me that there is always a way to improve and move forward in everything we do. Even if someone is not an outdoor rider with experience in watts training, they will be able to easily understand how to read the computer and its data and use it as a tool to improve in all subsequent rides. I loved how easy and user friendly the computer is! The threshold testing protocol we used complimented the bikes nicely and will be a nice instrument to use with our students.
I have committed to purchasing 20 Spinner® Blade ION bikes for our new facility at Quinnipiac University and our program is ready to move to the next level. To be able to capture and save data on our riders will help us to better meet the goals of our students. Also, this will permit us as a program, as well as our students individually, an opportunity for research and development. The team of SPINPOWER™ specialists is getting ready to share the education and the love of the newest Spinner® bike and program– way to go MDA!

Week 3
GOOD NEWS NOTES - Week 3
For the next three weeks we will ask the question "what are the things that hinder us from being open to being used by God?" This week we will speak of Assurances. There are three assurances that we need to consider.
Assurance of Salvation - This could be a major hindrance for those who want to be a witness and have doubts, questions, or are unsure of their salvation. Most who have difficulty with assurance have a strong need to do something to work for their salvation. The fact is that it is a faith decision that requires nothing of us. It is the gift of God. Because a lack of assurance will make you a less effective witness, I would encourage you to please consider talking with a friend or a minister to get some help and settle this issue.
Assurance of God's Word - The Bible is our guide and is reliable in all matters of faith, in our relationship with God, and how we should live our lives. If you have trouble with accepting the Bible as reliable this could affect your witness for Christ. Not being sure about trusting God's word will weaken your position as you witness. God gave us his word and assured us of its authority. With this authority we can be confident in using the Bible in matters of promises, witnessing, and faith.
Assurance of God's Help - We mentioned last week that God desires to bring missing people back to him much more than we do. He has chosen to use us as his tools here on earth. Do we think that he will let us blunder our way in these matters? I think not. We could never overstate the importance of relying on God to lead us and situate us in the right place with the right conversation at the right time. This will require us being open to him leading and guiding us. When we begin to pray for God to help us and give us what we need, he will be there just as he was with Moses before Pharaoh, as he was with Phillip and the Ethiopia eunuch, and as he was with Paul as he spoke to the people of Athens. The Holy Spirit's role in building relationships for Christ is of utmost importance. But that information will be covered in a later Good News Note in week 14. How could we not be anything but bold for God when we know he is there before us?
Scripture - The week before last our verse came from the great commission in Matthew 28:19-20. The last part of verse 20 Jesus says, "And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." This passage gives us the confidence in knowing that God is always with us. When we believe this we will learn to depend on God in all things.
Action - I think we are all guilty of making God too small. Are you tired of limiting God? Would you really like to see God do some great work through you? Are you willing to step out in faith to attempt to be used in a missing person's life? Then pray this prayer all this week.
Prayer -Lord, I really desire for you to work in a new and different way in my life. I want to serve you. Help me in this new adventure as I look for missing people and how I can build a relationship with them. Help me to keep returning to a position of weakness and depend on you for strength, guidance, and confidence. I will step out in faith and trust you for all things. Please help me.
