I've been using phred with ABI 377 sequenece files without any problem, 
but when we switched to files from our new 3700 sequencer, I got "file 
corrupted" errors (files were binary ftp'd). Has anyone run into this 
problem and is there a fix for it?

I do consultancy and contract work for some very large financial companies
and in these institutions software productivity is very high on their
priority list, they have set budgets and they cannot afford to use systems
which are difficult to maintain or have learning curves which are too steep;
remember someone else will have to maintain the software at a later date
when the original author will have moved on to other projects. In my
experience, C++ is one of the last programming languages these companies
consider, C perhaps, but certainly not C++. The reason is that software
written in C++ requires very experienced programmers (= higher cost) and
tends to be difficult to maintain once written, this is nothing to do with
OOP design in particular because these companies are very keen on OOP but
rather C++ syntax and semantic itself is a hindrance. If developing under
windows, which tends to be quite common, the MFC libraries are also very
expensive options to use and in my experience tends to be avoided.

So that do the companies I've worked for use? Well they certainly use Java
but on the whole only for server side work, GUI applications written in Java
tend to be slow and cumbersome, we have some and they are awful compared to
well written windows applications. Compare any of the Java Ides with a
modern compiled Windows IDE and you'll soon realise how sluggish and
primitive Java IDEs really are. So what else do the companies I've worked
for use? Well they use Delphi (from Borland), a language not mentioned here
for almost all their gui dev work. There is also a lot of VB work still
going on, mainly because it is so easy to write applications in. I suppose
the companies I work for focus development on Windows boxes, but before you
knock windows, the windows environment is now quite mature, it has lots of
support, has a rapidly evolving hardware base, has super fast graphics, a
mature GUI, and is very cheap, particularly the hardware.

One problem I see with software development in bioinformatics is that is
seems to use a wide range of tools, now this may be a good thing but it does
mean that most applications will be half-backed simply because it's almost
impossible to be a master of all these technologies (with the exception of a
limited number of gifted people).

Now I'm not saying people should go off and use Delphi or what ever, but do
remember there are other things going on in the computing world other than
Tkl/Tk, Perl, etc. It always surprises me how narrow we sometimes are in our
views of the world.

Thanks Andrew, Don, Chris and Robert:

I am flattered. And I thought Samaritans are one of the smallest  group of
human population leaving only in  Nothern Israel...

I sure will let you know about SeWeR ( that's the name of the site). I am
almost through with it.

Thank you very much for your offers.

Dear Herbert:

First of all thanks for your comments. I thought this thread was dead. You
have given it life again! Thank you!

That's common to any software development work. I agree to you completely.
Bioinformatics is no exception.

Sure! That's was the point. *Free* that's the buzzword!

I agree. But we are talking of portability issues too.

I agree. But a mixed option of native+Java works wonders, Borland Jbuilder
is an example!

I am talking for *free* softwares too. If I use a proprietory tool to
develop my software, I can't give it free. I need to get the *cow* free to
give the *milk* free.

No plan to knock windows. We want all, MAC, Windows, Linux, Solaris.... as
many as possible. But primarily for Windows, MAC and Linux

Most of the successful *free* projects are always developed as team efforts
or by the *old-man form the chinese parable* way- I start cutting the
mountain today, my son will finish it, if not my grandson.... :-)

Yep! PHP, XML, JavaScript, GNU all *free*!

We are most of the times but in this case intentionally! We close our eyes
to *cows* that we need to buy! I guess we have no other option but to wait
till Borland makes Delphi *free* atleast $$ sense or Microsoft gives VB away
before it breaks (See the order)!!!!!!

Does anybody know where to obtain the data of codon bias of CHO and
other common expression host?

Thanks,

The Bioinformatics Open Source Conference (BOSC) will take place
August 17-18 in San Diego, just before ISMB.

BOSC will be a two-day conference featuring speakers on software
engineering techniques in the life sciences, with a particular
emphasis on open source software.  Attendees are encouraged to submit
abstracts for consideration.  Some abstracts will be selected to give
talks and there will also be the chance to present posters. Tools that
are open source or built on top of open source software will be given
priority.

Please visit http://ismb2000.sdsc.edu/bosc2000/ for more information.

Hi All


I have spent some time investigating BIOEDIT and it appears to be
relatively powerful.

However it does have it's weakness in particular it's in ability to reverse
complement a sequence when using CAP.

Is any one aware of a Software package similar to Staden but for the PC.  A
collaborator of ours dose not appear to have access to unix servers etc.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

Thank you for your time

I use Java to design *portable* GUIs.  The interfaces are not as fast as
native code, but the portability surely is nice.  Imagine compiling a
moderately complex Java GUI on a Windows machine.  You can then simply
copy the binary byte-code to the Macintosh box, or a Linux box, or an
OS/2 box, and just run it showing the same interface on all machines.  
Of course there are some restrictions: you have to stick to Java 1.1 at
the present time.

Bottom line on the GUI issue, in my opinion: the original poster should
consider both *portability* and *performance*.  If platform independence
is very important (Win, Mac, Unix, Linux, OS/2, Be, ...), use Java to
build GUI's.  If performance is very important, use C++ or toolkits like
Tcl/Tk.

Another important difference between C++ and Java is how they handle
multi-threading.  This is potentially very important for a scientific
program doing lengthy computations.  In C++, the programmer has to
design the multithreading mechanism by hand from scratch (mutexes,
critical sections, semaphores, all that jazz...), while in Java
multithreading is handled at the language level.  This makes it
*relatively* easy to write threaded applications in Java.  For example,
one "worker" thread can be doing a lengthy scientific computation, while
another "manager" thread is offering the user -  the "boss" - to
terminate the "worker" if it seems too slow (Labor Movement language
unintended).

Yes, but the Windows operating system software cost seems staggering. 
Windows-2000 is quite expensive and (at the present time) very hard to
maintain.

True.  But it is also true that a master craftsperson will use whatever
tool is best suited for the given task (Perl for text processing, Java
for portable GUIs, C++ for fast native libraries, Fortran for quick
prototyping using legacy scientific code, etc.).  The more tools in
anyone's toolchest, the better!

Just my $0.02s worth.

A new version of the NCBI toolkit and new BLAST binaries have
been posted to the NCBI FTP site.  The toolkit is available at
ftp://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/toolbox/ncbi_tools/ and the BLAST binaries
are available at ftp://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/blast/executables/


Notes for BLAST 2.0.12 release:

Enhancements:

1.) Bl2seq can now perform nucleotide-protein (blastx style)
comparisons.
This necessitated changing the '-p' option from a Boolean to a
string.  Valid arguments are "blastn", "blastp", or "blastx".

Bug fixes:

1.) A problem in the NCBI threads library that caused BLAST to sometimes

stick was corrected.  Many thanks to Haruna Cofer and colleauges at SGI
for providing a fix.

2.) A problem that caused BLAST to core-dump (especially on long
queries)
has been fixed.  Many thanks to Gary Williams for providing examples.

3.) A problem that prevented the search of multiple multivolume
databases
has been fixed.

I'm having trouble getting BLAST2 (executable: blastall) to run on more
than one processor (i.e., when I specify the number of processors as 4
with the '-a' command line option).  It could have something to do with
my local environment, although I can get other programs (e.g. Perl) to
utilize all 4 processors.  Has anyone observed BLAST-2 running on more
than one processor in a 64-bit Solaris environment?  Does anyone know
of a trick to get BLAST2 to compile so that it can use all the
processors?

Any advice much appreciated,
Mike

Linux runs on "PCs", too :-)
I would recommend to run Staden on it's "native" platform - which is Unix
(we're using Staden on Solaris/UltraSPARC)...

This heavily depends on the executable. Unless the program or interpreter
(perl, JAVA) was designed to use multiple CPUs the program will only use
one CPU. You can always run multiple instances of the program which will
distribute over all available CPUs (=available means also that you can
restrict this via pbind (1m) - which may be usefull for interactive
machines which should be shared between many users).

If you have the Sun Workshop compiler you can do some magic to turn any
(uhm... most...) single-CPU-apps. into multi-CPU-apps. but this is little
bit tricky (=if the program was written portable and uses itself no
threading (this excludes the usage of GUI libraries like GTK+ etc., too)
it works, otherwise you'll see some weired crashes =:-)

Uhm, I think we need little more information
Which Solaris version (64bit==Solaris 7, right ?), kernel patch rev,
hardware, compiler used ?

We normally seem to use -a 8, as far as I can tell watching the queues,
and this normally means that 8 threads run - so on a 20-way box, we
actually see 8 processors used.

There are times in blast when it's essentially single threaded (I think
when it's actually finished the search and is extracting the results is
one), but the search phase uses multiple processors very nicely.

If you've got top, it will show the number of threads. This isn't equal
to the number of threads you've told it to use (in our case, with -a 8
we see 13 threads, which drops to 5 at the end of the run). So you can
tell from that whether it's actually creating the threads or not (and
what stage of the processing it's at).

If you're I/O bound then you'll never see high cpu usage, even with
multiple threads, as they're all waiting for the data. So it may then
appear that it's effectively only using a single cpu.

Beste mensen,

Ik heb een probleem:
'Zomaar ineens' bestaat er in mijn configuratiescherm (WIN95), onder
'systeem' geen CD-rom apparaat meer vermeld.
Nu heb ik van een site met drivers een dos-driver voor de CDRW-622 van
Wearnes gevonden.
Echter, de brandmogelijkheid doet het nog niet. Want deze functioneert in
DOScompatibiliteitsmodus.
In 'Deze Computer' staat nu wel A, C, D (=cd-rom) en E (interne ZIP)
vermeld.
Nog steeds niet in het configuratiescherm------> systeem.
Dus ik heb wel een CD-rom, maar geen Rewritable, terwijl ik die wel heb.
Ik heb ook Windows opnieuw 'hardware laten detecteren, zonder resultaat.
Toen ik de pc nieuw kocht (PIII-450) kreeg ik er allerlei software bij,
echter geen cd-rommetje van Wearnes. Ik dacht, het zal wel plug and Play
zijn.
Ik hoop dat er iemand is die mij kan helpen.
Ofwel met tips wat ik moet doen, ofwel met de juiste drivers.
Hieronder zal ik de inhoud van mijn config.sys en autoexec.bat weergeven.
Wil je je bericht, behalve in de nieuwsgroep, ook per email aan me zenden?

Alvast hartelijk dank.

Andries Jagt

Try BioEdit.... its free and claims it can read ABI sequences and do
alignments.  I have not used it yet since we have sequencher and ABI
software.... Let me know if these things are helpful.

Hi Mike,

In case you haven't gotten an answer already...to build the
multiprocessor version of BLAST, you will need to modify the
ncbi/make/makeall.unx file (line 410) by replacing
-DNCBI_NOTHREADS_AVAIL with -D_POSIX_THREADS:

ncbithrs.o: ncbithrs.c
    $(CC) -D_POSIX_THREADS $(CFLAGS) ncbithrs.c

I have some web pages on building and running BLAST...they are written
for SGI/IRIX systems, but you may still find them useful for running on
SUN/Solaris systems.  The porting notes are here:

 http://www.sgi.com/chembio/resources/blast/porting_notes_ncbi.html

And the known problems and fixes are here:

 http://www.sgi.com/chembio/resources/blast/problems_and_fixes_ncbi.html

Thanks, and good luck!

Hello there!

HT-BLAST based on the latest NCBI BLAST 2.0.12 is available for download
from the following site, for SGI systems running IRIX 6.5:

 http://www.sgi.com/chembio/resources/blast/ht-blast.html

HT-BLAST is a modification of the original NCBI BLAST program that has
been optimized for use in high throughput sequence analysis, where
multiple query sequences are being searched against possibly multiple
databases.  For more information about HT-BLAST, please see the
following white paper, entitled "High-Throughput BLAST":

  http://www.sgi.com/chembio/resources/papers/HTBlast/HT_Whitepaper.html

Thank you, and please do let me know if you have any questions or
problems!

Hello

I'm looking for the thermodynamic values needed for the Tm calculation of
DNA (deltaG, deltaS, deltaH).
I will be very debtfull to anyone that can post these informations (web
site, or other). 
I want to notify that I have no access to the scientific litterature.


Thanks by advance.

All the published values are available together with the program
MELTING 
(http://www.pasteur.fr/recherche/unites/neubiomol/meltinghome.html)
The tables are located in the directory NNFILES of the distribution.

However, since this program is available (including with a WWW 
interface 
(http://bioweb.pasteur.fr/seqanal/interfaces/melting.html)
you don't need to compute everything yourself ;-)

Hello netters,=20


Does anyone know of a primer design/analysis program that starts from =
more then one protein/DNA sequence. I'm thinking of a software able to =
performe alignments and primer design for PCR on most conserved regions.
I already tested CODEHOP and GENEFISHER.

Is there something better or different in the net?

I'm trying to build the current NCBI toolbox on Linux/Alpha using the
Compaq C compiler. 

I removed (or thought so) all relevant sections from linux.ncbi.mk and
makedis.csh.  But when makedis.csh runs it chokes on blast.REAL, which
seems to require some bits of vibrant. 

In makenet.unx it says:

blast.REAL:	wwwblast.o salogif.o $(THREAD_OBJ)
	$(CC) $(LDFLAGS) wwwblast.o salogif.o $(THREAD_OBJ) -o blast.REAL -lvibgif $(LIB20) $(LIB23) $(LIB2) $(LIB1) $(OTHERLIBS) $(THREAD_OTHERLIBS)

but vibgif doesn't get built without vibrant, and LIB20 is libncbidesk.a, 
which won't be built without vibrant either.   The reason it's trying to 
build blast.REAL is because the no motif branch within makedis.csh
has:

        set ALL_VIB=()
        set DEMO_VIB=()
        set NET_VIB=(VIB=\"blastcl3 blast.REAL\")

So what is "blast.REAL"?   Can it really be built without vibrant or no?

Thanks,

Hello,

I am looking for programs able to truly align N sequences 
(backtracing in the N dimentionnal space, not based on pairwise
alignments and "once a gap, always a gap" approach).

I tried MSA, but several things are disturbing 	me:
   - limits are macro (no dynamic meme alloc)
   - only one matrix is provided (guess which one: PAM250), and it
     is hard coded.
   - It is VERY slow (yes, I know such a process is inherently slow)

Is anybody aware of something more recent and fixing the points 
above?

On the same idea, where could I find a program using blast approach 
to make multiple alignments? 

Thanks,

1. DynaFit version upgrade
--------------------------
The freeware program DynaFit [P. Kuzmic (1996) Anal. Biochem. 237,
260-173] has been updated to version 3.21 and is now available for
download from the BioKin website.


2. Purpose of program DynaFit
-----------------------------
DynaFit is used for the simulation or statistical analysis (nonlinear
least-squares regression) of chemical, biochemical, and biological
data.  Three types of data can be analyzed: (1) reaction progress in
dependence on time, (2) initial reaction velocity in dependence on
concentrations, and (3) composition at equilibrium in dependence on
concentrations.


3. Symbolic Notation
--------------------
The main advantage of program DynaFit is that the investigator may
describe the chemical or biochemical system in terms of symbolic,
stoichiometric equations.  The program derives the underlying
mathematical model automatically.  For example, interaction of a "slow,
tight" inhibitor of a dimeric enzyme (HIV protease) is described as
follows:

   [mechanism]
      Monomer + Monomer <==> Enzyme       :    k1   k2
      Enzyme + Substrate <==> ReactiveX   :    k3   k4
      ReactiveX --> Enzyme + Product      :    k5
      Enzyme + Inhibitor <==> Complex     :    k6   k7

The names of rate constants (k1, k3, ...) and reacting species
('Monomer', 'Enzyme', ...) are arbitrary.


4. Revised documentation
------------------------
The long awaited DynaFit "Scripting Manual" is now available in the
Adobe PDF format.  It is a 130-page document with indexes and
illustrations, explaining in a systematic fashion the syntax of DynaFit
script files.  Also added to the website is a short visual "Getting
Started" tutorial, showing the analysis of a representative data set
screen-by-screen.

Bac sequence is coming out for specific regions in drips and draps with
no discernible structure in place for readily identifying sequence from
regions of interest.  Can anyone give advise on the best way of
collecting new sequence information from specific chromosome locations?
Presumably, the best way of identifying the sequence is by Blast
searching with available marker sequence, but this seems to be time
consuming and tedious.  Are there available tools for automating this?

Thanks,

I would try going to source, ie the labs that are sequencing the specific
chromosomes of interest, and the NCBI has a sequencing progress page:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genome/seq/page.cgi?F=HsProgress.shtml&&ORG=Hs

and for more general stuff about sequencing:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genome/seq/page.cgi?F=HsHome.html&ORG=Hs

We have a list of the labs sequencing the chromosomes:

This is a one-time message to announce a mailing list for BLAST news.
This list is intended for distribution of short messages announcing
updates and new features and to give advance notices about upcoming
changes in the NCBI BLAST service.

All postings to this list will come from the NCBI BLAST Help desk.

If you want to subscribe to this list please send a message with your
name and e-mail address to <blast-help@ncbi.nlm.nih.gov>.  If you do
not respond you will NOT be added to the list.  Please forward this
message to anyone interested in receiving BLAST News.

NCBI BLAST Help Desk.

Below is an example of news that are supposed to be sent to this list.

----------------------------------------------------------------

*** May 01, 2000. Taxonomy BLAST

Tax BLAST is a new service which groups BLAST hits by source organism,
according to information in NCBI's Taxonomy database. The Tax BLAST
reports are generated based on the list of source organisms found in a
particular BLAST hitlist, and can be found  from the "Taxonomy reports"
link in the regular BLAST output page.  The Organism Report groups the
BLAST hits  according to the source organism of the target sequences -
all of the BLAST hits are shown. The Lineage Report shows a simplified
view of how closely each of the source organisms in the BLAST hitlist
are related to the species that showed the closest sequence similarity
to the query - only the best hit from each species is shown. The
Taxonomy Report summarizes everything that the NCBI Taxonomy database
has to say about the relationships between the source organisms in the
BLAST hitlist - none of the BLAST hits are shown in this report. There
is additional help available in the Taxonomy-BLAST Help web page:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/blast/taxblasthelp.html

*** May 01, 2000. Multiple hyperlinks for redundant sequences.

When searching the non-redundant protein databases, BLAST results now
show all the corresponding gi numbers for each alignment. This includes
all the redundant matches for the alignment with links to their full
database records. This will make it easier to identify all the protein
sequences in the databases which match a particular query even if there
are many representatives.

*** April 30, 2000. Compatibility BLAST pages.

The previous version of the BLAST webpages, as it existed on 04/30/00
will remain available till 06/30/2000 at the

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/blast/blast.prev.cgi

The NCBI BLAST software group intends to move previous versions of
BLAST pages to this URL every time significant changes in BLAST
interface and output occur.

Hi,

I am trying to find out more about the different expression analysis
software packages that are available (BioDiscovery, GeneSpring, Gene
Logic, etc.).  Are there any opinions on features or utility of
software (clustering, data mining, etc.)  Any help would be great.

Thanks,
Ed Bell

So, How in the heck have you been?

Do you remember holding previous conversations regarding business and 
money making opportunities. I did not send this to you in error!

You said:

"If only I could find an easier way to make a higher income"

and

"If I had more money, I could spend more time with my Family, and
less time at work"

and

"I sure could use more money so I could pay off my bills once and for 
all!"

and

"I would love to get involved in a business in which will generate 
money while I am not at work (like a Gas Pump)"

Dear Friend,

There is a possibility that we haven't met, but you were chosen by 
someone to recieve this E-Mail.

Please, please, print this off and read thoroughly. Be sure that you 
don't miss any of the points outlined. Then put it down, and then read 
it again. I am sending you a whole lot of information in which you
might not understand the first time you read it. If you don't believe 
this program will work for you, send it to 10-20 of your closest 
friends (in which you trust deeply), and ask them what they think?

This really works! Have the faith, don't miss this opportunity, get
involved also, and it will work for you as it does for us!!!!!

Due to the popularity of this letter on the Internet,

A MAJOR NIGHTLY NEWS Program recently dedicated entire show to the 
investigation of the program described below to see if it really can
make people money.

The show also investigated whether or not the program was legal.
Their findings proved that there are absolutely no laws prohibiting 
the participation in the program. This has helped to show people that
this is a simple, harmless and fun way to make some extra money at 
home.

The results have been truly remarkable. So many people are
participating that those involved are doing much better than ever
before. Since everyone makes more as more people try it
out, its been very exciting.

You will understand only if you get involved!

********* THE ENTIRE PLAN IS HERE BELOW *********

*** Print This Now For Future Reference ***

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

If you would like to make AT LEAST $50,000 in less than 90 days!

If not, forward this to someone who would like to make this kind of 
money....... It works (like designed) but only for those who follow 
it to the letter!

Please read this program...THEN READ IT AGAIN!!

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

THIS IS A LEGITIMATE, LEGAL, MONEY MAKING OPPORTUNITY!!

It does NOT require you to come into contact with people or make or
take any telephone calls. Just follow the instructions, and you
will make money. This simplified e-mail marketing program works
perfectly 100% EVERY TIME!

E-mail is the sales tool of the future. Take advantage of this
virtually free method of advertising NOW!!! The longer you wait,
the more people will be doing business using email. Get your
piece of this action!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hello - My name is Johnathon Rourke, I'm from Rhode Island.

The enclosed information is something I almost let slip through my
fingers. Fortunately, sometime later I re-read everything and gave
some thought and study to it. Two years ago, the corporation I worked
for the past twelve years down-sized and my position was eliminated.
After unproductive job interviews, I decided to open my own business.
Over the past year, I incurred many unforeseen financial problems.
I owed my family, friends and creditors over $35,000. The economy was
taking a toll on my business and I just couldn't seem to make ends 
meet. I had to refinance and borrow against my home to support my 
family and struggling business.

AT THAT MOMENT something significant happened in my life. I am
writing to share the experience in hopes that this could change your
life FOREVER.

FINANCIALLY$$$!!!

In mid December, I received this program in my e-mail. Six months
prior to receiving this program I had been sending away for 
information on various business opportunities. All of the programs
I received, in my opinion, were not cost effective. They were either 
too difficult for me to comprehend or the initial investment was too 
much for me to risk to see if they would work. But as I was saying, 
in December of 1997 I received this program. I didn't send for it, 
or ask for it, they just got my name off a mailing list.

THANK GOODNESS FOR THAT!!! After reading it several times, to make 
sure I was reading it correctly. I couldn't believe my eyes! Here 
was a MONEY MAKING MACHINE I could start immediately without any debt.

Like most of you I was still a little skeptical and a little worried
about the legal aspects of it all. So I checked it out with the U.S. 
Post Office (1-800-725-2161 24-hrs) and they confirmed that it is 
indeed legal!

After determining the program was LEGAL I decided "WHY NOT!?!??"

Initially I sent out 10,000 e-mails. It cost me about $15 for my time
on-line. The great thing about e-mail is that I don't need any for
printing to send out the program, and because I also send the product
(reports) by e-mail, my only expense is my time.

In less than one week, I was starting to receive orders for REPORT #1.
By January 13, I had received 26 orders for REPORT #1. Your goal is 
to "RECEIVE at least 20 ORDERS FOR REPORT #1 WITHIN 2 WEEKS. IF YOU 
DON'T, SEND OUT MORE PROGRAMS UNTIL YOU DO.

My first step in making $50,000 in 90 days was done. By January 30, I
had received 196 orders for REPORT #2. Your goal is to "RECEIVE AT
LEAST 100+ ORDERS FOR REPORT #2 WITHIN 2 WEEKS. IF NOT, SEND OUT MORE
PROGRAMS UNTIL YOU DO. ONCE YOU HAVE 100 ORDERS, THE REST IS EASY,
RELAX, YOU WILL MAKE YOUR $50,000 GOAL."

Well, I had 196 orders for REPORT #2. 96 more than I needed.
So I sat back and relaxed. By March 1, of my e-mailing of 10,000,
received $58,000 with more coming in every day. I paid off ALL my 
debts and bought a much needed new car!

Please take your time to read this plan, IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE
FOREVER$!!! Remember, it won't work if you don't try it.

This program does work, BUT you must follow it EXACTLY!

Especially the rules of not trying to place your name in a different
place. It won't work and you'll lose out on a lot of money! In order 
for this program to work, you must meet your goal of 20+ orders for 
REPORT #1, and 100+ orders for REPORT #2 and you will make $50,000 or
more in 90 days.

I AM LIVING PROOF THAT IT WORKS!!! If you choose not to participate 
in this program, I am sorry. It really is a great opportunity with 
little  cost or risk to you. If you choose to participate, follow
the program and you will be on your way to financial security. If 
you are a fellow business owner and are in financial trouble like 
I was, or you want to start your own business, consider this a sign. 
I DID! $$

Sincerely,

Johnathon Rourke
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A PERSONAL NOTE FROM THE ORIGINATOR OF THIS PROGRAM:

By the time you have read the enclosed program and reports, you should
have concluded that such a program, and one that is legal, could not 
have been created by an amateur. Let me tell you a little about 
myself. I had a profitable business for 10 years. Then in 1979 
my business began falling off. I was doing the same things that 
were previously successful for me, but it wasn't working. Finally,
I figured it out. It wasn't me, it was the economy. Inflation and 
recession had replaced the stable economy that had been with us 
since 1945.

I don't have to tell you what happened to the unemployment rate...
because many of you know from first hand experience. There were more
failures and bankruptcies than ever before. The middle class was 
vanishing. Those who knew what they were doing invested wisely and
moved up. Those who did not, including those who never had anything 
to save or invest, were moving down into the ranks of the poor. As 
the saying goes, "THE RICH GET RICHER AND THE POOR GET POORER." The 
traditional methods of making money will never allow you to"move up" 
or "get rich", inflation will see to that.

You have just received information that can give you financial
freedom for the rest of your life, with "NO RISK" and "JUST A LITTLE 
BIT OF EFFORT." You can make more money in the next few months than 
you have ever imagined. I should also point out that I will not see a 
penny of this money, nor anyone else who has provided a testimonial 
for this program.

I have retired from the program after sending thousands and thousands
of programs. Follow the program EXACTLY AS INSTRUCTED. Do not change 
it in any way. It works exceedingly well as it is now. Remember to 
e-mail a copy of this exciting report to everyone you can think of. 
One of the people you send this to may send out 50,000...and your name 
will be on everyone of them!

REMEMBER though, ----- the MORE YOU SEND OUT, the more potential 
customers you will reach. So my friend, I have given you the ideas, 
information, materials and opportunity to become financially 
independent.

IT IS UP TO YOU!! NOW DO IT!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BEFORE YOU delete this program from your in box, as I almost did,
take a little time to read it and REALLY THINK ABOUT IT. Get a pencil 
and figure out what could happen when YOU participate. Figure out the 
worst possible response and no matter how you calculate it, you will 
still make a lot of money! You will definitely get back what you 
invested. Any doubts you have will vanish when your first orders 
come in.

$$$ IT WORKS!!! $$$

Jody Jacobs Richmond, VA

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

HERE'S HOW THIS AMAZING PROGRAM WILL MAKE YOU THOUSANDS OF
DOLLAR$$$$!!!!

This method of raising capital REALLY WORKS 100% EVERY TIME. I am
sure that you could use up to $50,000 or more in the next 90 days. 
before you say "BULL... ", please read this program carefully. 
This is not a chain letter, but a perfectly legal money making 
business.

As with all multi-level businesses, we build our business by
recruiting new partners and selling our products. Every state in the 
USA allows you to recruit new multi-level business partners, and we 
sell and deliver a product for EVERY dollar received.

YOUR ORDERS COME BY MAIL AND ARE FILLED BY E-MAIL, so you are not
involved in personal selling. You do it privately in your own home, 
store or office. This is the EASIEST marketing plan anywhere! It is 
simply order filling by email!

*******************************************************************
The product is informational and instructional material, keys to the
secrets for everyone on how to open the doors to the magic world of
E-COMMERCE , the information highway, the wave of the future !

PLAN SUMMARY:

(1) You order the 4 reports listed below ($5 each) They come to you
by email.

(2) Save a copy of this entire letter and put your name after Report
#1 and move the other names down.

(3) Via the internet, access Yahoo.com or any of the other major
search engines to locate hundreds of bulk email service companies 
(search for "bulk email") and have them send 25,000 - 50,000 emails 
for you about $49+)

(4) Orders will come to you by postal mail - simply email them the
Report they ordered. Let me ask you - isn't this about as easy as it
gets?

*******************************************************************

By the way there are over 50 MILLION email addresses with millions
more joining the internet each year so don't worry about "running out"
or "saturation". People are used to seeing and hearing the same 
advertisements every day on radio/TV. How many times have you 
received the same pizza flyers on your door? Then one day you are 
hungry for pizza and you order one. Same thing with this letter. 
I received this letter many times - then one day I decided it was
time to try it.

*******************************************************************

YOU CAN START TODAY - JUST DO THESE EASY STEPS:

STEP #1. ORDER THE FOUR REPORTS

Order the four reports shown on the list below (you can't sell
them if you don't order them). -- For each report, send $5.00
CASH, the NAME & NUMBER OF THE REPORT YOU ARE ORDERING,
YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS, and YOUR NAME & RETURN ADDRESS (in case of a 
problem) to the person whose name appears on the list next to the 
report.

MAKE SURE YOUR RETURN ADDRESS IS ON YOUR ENVELOPE IN CASE OF ANY MAIL
PROBLEMS!

Within a few days you will receive, by e-mail, each of the four
reports. Save them on your computer so you can send them to the 
1,000's of people who will order them from you.

STEP #2. ADD YOUR MAILING ADDRESS TO THIS LETTER
a. Look below for the listing of the four reports.
b. After you've ordered the four reports, delete the name and address
under REPORT #4. This person has made it through the cycle.
c. Move the name and address under REPORT #3 down to REPORT #4.
d. Move the name and address under REPORT #2 down to REPORT #3.
e. Move the name and address under REPORT #1 down to REPORT #2.
f. Insert your name/address in the REPORT #1 position.
Please make sure you COPY ALL INFORMATION, every name and address,
ACCURATELY!

STEP #3. Take this entire letter, including the modified list of
names, and save it to your computer. Make NO changes to these 
instructions. Now you are ready to use this entire email to send 
by email to prospects.

Report #1 will tell you how to download bulk email software and email
addresses so you can send it out to thousands of people while you
sleep! Remember that 50,000+ new people are joining the internet every
month.

Your cost to participate in this is practically nothing (surely you
can afford $20 and initial bulk mailing cost). You obviously already 
have a computer and an Internet connection and e-mail is FREE!

There are two primary methods of building your downline:

METHOD #1: SENDING BULK E-MAIL Let's say that you decide to start
small, just to see how it goes, and we'll assume you and all those 
involved email out only 2,000 programs each. Let's also assume that 
the mailing receives a 0.5% response. The response could be much 
better. Also, many people will email outhundreds of thousands of 
programs instead of 2,000 (Why stop at 2000?). But continuing with 
this example, you send out only 2,000 programs. With a 0.5% response, 
that is only 10 orders for

REPORT #1. Those 10 people respond by sending out 2,000 programs each 
for a total of 20,000. Out of those 0.5%, 100 people respond and order

REPORT #2. Those 100 mail out 2,000 programs each for a total of 
200,000. The 0.5% response to that is 1,000 orders for

REPORT #3. Those 1,000 send out 2,000 programs each for a 2,000,000 
total. The 0.5% response to that is 10,000 orders for

REPORT #4. That's 10,000 $5 bills for you. CASH!!!
Your total income in this example is $50 + $500 + $5,000 + $50,000
for a total of $55,550!!!

REMEMBER FRIEND, THIS IS ASSUMING 1,990 OUT OF THE 2,000 PEOPLE YOU
MAIL TO WILL DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING AND TRASH THIS PROGRAM!
DARE TO THINK FOR A MOMENT WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF EVERYONE, OR HALF
SENT OUT 100,000 PROGRAMS INSTEAD OF 2,000. Believe me, many people 
will do just that, and more!

METHOD #2 - PLACING FREE ADS ON THE INTERNET
Advertising on the internet is very, very inexpensive, and there are
HUNDREDS of FREE places to advertise. Let's say you decide to start
small just to see how well it works. Assume your goal is to get ONLY 
10 people to participate on your first level. (Placing a lot of FREE 
ads on the Internet will EASILY get a larger response.) Also assume 
that everyone else in YOUR ORGANIZATION gets ONLY 10 downline members. 
Look how this small number accumulates to achieve the STAGGERING 
results below:

1st level--your first 10 send you $5 .....................$50
2nd level--10 members from those 10 ($5 x 100)...........$500
3rd level--10 members from those 100 ($5 x 1,000)......$5,000
4th level--10 members from those 1,000 ($5 x 10,000)..$50,000

$$$$$$ THIS TOTALS -----------------------------------$55,550 $$$$$$

AMAZING ISN'T IT? Remember friends, this assumes that the people who
participate only recruit 10 people each. Think for a moment what would
happen if they got 20 people to participate! Most people get 100's of
participants and many will continue to work this program, sending out
programs WITH YOUR NAME ON THEM for years! THINK ABOUT IT!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

People are going to get emails about this plan from you or somebody
else and many will work this plan - the question is - Don't you want 
your name to be on the emails they will send out?

******* TIPS FOR SUCCESS *******

TREAT THIS AS YOUR BUSINESS! Be prompt, professional, and follow the
directions accurately. -- Send for the four reports IMMEDIATELY so 
you will have them when the orders start coming in because:

When you receive a $5 order, you MUST send out the requested
product/report. It is required for this to be a legal business and
they need the reports to send out their letters (with your name on 
them!)

-- ALWAYS PROVIDE SAME-DAY SERVICE ON THE ORDERS YOU RECEIVE. -- Be
patient and persistent with this program - If you follow the 
instructions exactly - results WILL FOLLOW. $$$$

******* YOUR SUCCESS GUIDELINES *******

Follow these guidelines to guarantee your success: If you don't
receive 20 orders for REPORT #1 within two weeks, continue advertising 
orsending e-mails until you do. Then, a couple of weeks later you 
should receive at least 100 orders for REPORT#2. If you don't, 
continue advertising or sending e-mails until you do. Once you have 
received 100 or more orders for REPORT #2, YOU CAN RELAX, because
the system is already working for you, and the cash will continue
