Thanks From owner-diagnostics@net.bio.net Thu Jun 03 08:20:00 1999 Path: biosci!biosci!not-for-mail From: BIOSCI Administrator Newsgroups: bionet.diagnostics Subject: BIOSCI/bionet miniFAQ & Fundraiser Date: 3 Jun 1999 02:20:47 -0700 Organization: BIOSCI International Newsgroups for Molecular Biology Lines: 233 Sender: daemon@net.bio.net Approved: odonnell@sasa.gov.uk Distribution: world Message-ID: <7j5hdf$2cl@net.bio.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: net.bio.net (LAST REVISION: 30-JUL-95) This BIOSCI "miniFAQ" is designed to answer the questions that come up the *most frequently*. The main BIOSCI FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) is accessible on the World Wide Web at URL http://www.bio.net/. If you can not find an answer to your question in this or other documentation, the BIOSCI technical support staff answers e-mail queries sent to biosci-help@net.bio.net We can only answer questions about the use of the newsgroups and mailing lists. We unfortunately do not have the staff to do Internet information searches or answer scientific questions. Please post those to the appropriate BIOSCI/bionet newsgroups. Contents: -------- 0) BIOSCI NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT!! 1) Using the WWW to access the BIOSCI/bionet newsgroups. 2) What to do about "spams," i.e., junk mail, ads, etc. 3) Examples of subscribing and unsubscribing to the mailing lists. 4) The BIOSCI user address and research interest directory. 0) BIOSCI NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT!! ------------------------------ BIOSCI's government funding has been expended, and we are now operating solely from advertising revenue that we have raised from our Web site at http://www.bio.net/. We need just a few minutes of your time to help us serve you. You can do two important things which will take very little time for you individually and will immensely help us continue to help you. First, please use our WWW system at http://www.bio.net/ to access the archives. You can post or reply to messages via your Web browser as described in item #1 below. Your usage helps attract sponsors. If you contact any of our sponsors, please be sure to thank them for supporting BIOSCI. It is critical for them to get this feedback if they are to continue their sponsorship for the long term. Second, if you work for a company or organization that provides products or services of interest to the biology community, please pass this message on to your marketing or marketing communications department or other appropriate group. Please ask them to help support BIOSCI by sponsoring our Web site and explain the uses and benefits of the system to the biology community. If they are interested, they can then contact us for further information at our tech support address, biosci-help@net.bio.net. 1) Using the WWW to access the BIOSCI/bionet newsgroups. -------------------------------------------------------- As of 10 December 1995, all BIOSCI/bionet full newsgroups are accessible through the World Wide Web (WWW) at URL http://www.bio.net. One can read and reply publicly or privately to both recent postings and archived messages through one's Web browser if it is configured properly to send e-mail. Each newsgroup is equipped with its own WAIS index. The main BIOSCI home page also has access to the BIO-JOURNALS Table of Contents database WAIS index and the BIOSCI user address database described in another item further below. 2) What to do about "spams," i.e., junk mail, ads, etc. ------------------------------------------------------- BIOSCI is a set of parallel USENET newsgroups (the "bionet" groups), mailing lists, and a hypermail archive at URL http://www.bio.net/. The same postings are distributed on all media (except for a small number of mailing-list-only groups at net.bio.net). Unfortunately it is becoming a despicable practice on the Internet (by a few people out to make a fast buck) to do automated mass postings to thousands of newsgroups and mailing lists. These attempts to grab free advertising are refered to as "spams" in the usual, somewhat boneheaded, net terminology. USENET is more susceptible to this practice, and many spams originate on the USENET groups and then are passed on to the mailing lists. However, spammers also get lists of mailing addresses and hit these too, so neither medium is immune. What should you do personally if you get junk mail? --------------------------------------------------- Just delete it and move on without reading it further. Filing a protest is becoming increasingly useless because spammers are often disguising the addresses where the messages are sent from. Unless you really understand Internet mail systems, your attempt at protest by sending replies to the message will often end up being sent to the address of an innocent person that the spammer is victimizing. What can BIOSCI/bionet do to protect its newsgroups? ---------------------------------------------------- The only solution currently available is to moderate the newsgroup. If this newsgroup is already moderated, then you are in good shape. Moderation protects the USENET distribution from about 95% of the spams that are being sent to date and protects the mailing lists completely. Moderation means, however, that someone has to take the time to review each message before it goes out. We have set up software here that simply allows the moderator to forward to an address at net.bio.net messages that (s)he wishes to have distributed. This takes no more time than that needed to read the message and pass it on, say about 1 min. per message. Most newsgroups currently have a discussion leader who is responsible for their newsgroup. The discussions leaders and their e-mail addresses are listed in the BIOSCI Information Sheet which is available on the Web at http://www.bio.net/. If a newsgroup is being hit with too many junk postings, please contact the discussion leader for that group and see if there is interest in moderating the group. Please do not assume that by simply posting a complaint to the newsgroup itself, anyone on the BIOSCI staff will act on your complaint. With close to 100 newsgroups to run, the BIOSCI staff has to rely on the discussion leaders of each newsgroup to report problems directly to us at biosci-help@net.bio.net. We will moderate any of our newsgroups if the discussion leader tells us that the readership of the group wishes to do so and if a moderator is willing to do the work. For most BIOSCI/bionet groups, this entails only a few minutes of work each day. Moderating a newsgroup will resolve probably 95% of the junk postings on the USENET distribution. Unfortunately there are easy ways for determined spammers to override the moderation mechanism on USENET, but we can protect our e-mail subscribers from unwanted postings if the newsgroup is moderated. You can also access our newsgroups over the WWW at URL http://www.bio.net. While this Web interface will not stop spammers from trying to post to the groups, this will give you yet another way, besides using USENET news, to keep the junk out of your personal mail files. For those of you with local USENET news systems, the Web interface will also give you faster access to new newsgroups and recent postings. 3) Examples of subscribing and unsubscribing to the mailing lists. ------------------------------------------------------------------ PLEASE NOTE: The BIOSCI management does NOT act on subscription/unsubscription requests that are posted improperly to the newsgroups and mailing lists. People who do this only bother everyone on the lists to no avail. Please be sure to follow the proper procedures below. Gory details are in the BIOSCI Information sheets on the Web at http://www.bio.net. Below we give an example utilizing the METHODS-AND-REAGENTS list at both of our two BIOSCI sites: Users in the Americas and Pacific Rim countries who use the BIOSCI ------------------------------------------------------------------ node at computer net.bio.net: ---------------------------- A) Determine the "listname" which is the <=8 character mail address ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ for the group. These can be found in the BIOSCI Info. Sheet. For the METHODS-AND-REAGENTS group the mailing address is methods@net.bio.net. The listname is the portion of the address to the left of the @ sign, i.e., "methods". The listname is used with the "subscribe" and "unsubscribe" commands illustrated below. B) Mail all commands in the body of a mail message addressed to biosci-server@net.bio.net. Do NOT send commands to the newsgroup posting addresses! Leave the Subject: line blank, any text on it will be ignored. C) In the body of your message put one or more of the following commands with an "end" command on the last line, e.g., subscribe methods unsubscribe methods end Do NOT put your e-mail address or other text on these lines. The server only allows you to cancel your subscription if the address on your mail header matches the address on our mailing list. Please ask for help at biosci-help@net.bio.net if your address has changed, e.g., if you know you are on the list but the server tells you that you are not a member. Users in Europe, Africa, and Central Asia who use the BIOSCI node at -------------------------------------------------------------------- computer daresbury.ac.uk (also known as dl.ac.uk): ------------------------------------------------- To subscribe and unsubscribe to/from the BIOSCI lists, you need to specify the full USENET newsgroup name with "bionet-news." prepended. The USENET newsgroup names are listed in the BIOSCI Information sheet on the Web at http://www.bio.net/. For the METHODS-AND-REAGENTS list the USENET newsgroup name is bionet.molbio.methds-reagnts, thus the appropriate commands are sub bionet-news.bionet.molbio.methds-reagnts unsub bionet-news.bionet.molbio.methds-reagnts These commands are included in a message addressed to mxt@dl.ac.uk, NOT to the newsgroup mailing addresses. As usual, include the text in the body of the message as text on the Subject: line is ignored. To unsubscribe from all the lists at the UK node, use unsub bionet-news Please note that if the address in the list is different than the one in your mail message header, you will not be able to unsubscribe by this method. If you have problems, please mail biosci@daresbury.ac.uk. 4) The BIOSCI user address and research interest directory. ----------------------------------------------------------- Please take this opportunity to add your name, address, and research interest information to the BIOSCI User Address Database if you have not already done so. You can fill out the address form directly through our Web page at URL http://www.bio.net/adrform.html. The address database is reindexed nightly for WWW access (the URL is http://www.bio.net/). If you are not directly on the Internet but can reach it by e-mail, please use our waismail server to access the user directory. waismail use is described above. You can also request a user address form by e-mail from biosci-help@net.bio.net. Please check your database entry from time-to-time to see if your address information is still up-to-date. Because of our limited personnel resources, we ask that you resubmit a *complete* form to revise your entry; we only replace complete entries and do not have resources to edit old forms.

Thus, if any of your programs, activities, or interests involve IPM (or pest management in general), you also might be interested in IPMnet and free, direct-to-your-email box delivery of the monthly IPMnet NEWS, as well as free access to IPMnet's website with extensive links to useful IPM information, such as the award-winning (free) DATABASE OF IPM RESOURCES and the acclaimed electronic (free) RADCLIFFE'S IPM WORLD TEXTBOOK. This short message (even though unsolicited) describes IPMnet, and so could be of use, and benefit to you. Naturally, if you're already linked to IPMnet, or have no interest in integrated--or other--pest management, or have constraints in accessing e-mail and the web, excuse the intrusion. *#############################[*]###############################* [ ___ _____ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ ___ ] [ | | | |\ /| |\ | | \ / / \ ] [ | | | | \/ | |/=\ /==\=|= | \ | | \ | / |===\ ] [ | |====/ | | | | |==/ | | \ | |=== \ /`\ / | ] [ | | | | | | | | | \| | \ / | ] [ === == === ==== = \==/ \/ === ======= === === \=====/ ] [ ------------------------------------------------------------- ] [ IPMnet NEWS June 1999 Issue no. 66 ] [ ------------------------------------------------------------- ] [ The Consortium for International Crop Protection ] [ produces and provides IPMnet NEWS as a ] [ free, electronic global IPM Information resource. ] ###############################[*]############################### .........{ newsletter text omitted--explanation follows }........ ~~~~~~~~~ IPMnet is a free, global, non-commercial electronic Integrated Pest Management information source specifically focused on contemporary, economic, environmentally-attuned approaches to managing/controlling weed, disease, insect, nematode, and vertebrate pests in crops and amenity plantings. IPMnet and the electronic newsletter it produces and distributes worldwide--IPMnet NEWS (the masthead above)--offer free services via either or both: # automatic direct delivery to your e-mail box each month; and, # World Wide Web. IPMnet NEWS, now in its sixth year of service and with worldwide recognition, is purpose-designed to provide very brief, timely, multi- disciplinary, worldwide "news-you-can-use" (but no adverts) to all concerned with elements of IPM/pest management: * development * research * field implementation * extension / adoption * policy * impact / socio-economics. The NEWS strives to alert its readers to the latest new resources, research, extension materials, publications, CDs, trends, problems, solutions, professional opportunities, materials, and equipment. In short, anything that relates to improved, practical, environmentally responsible pest management may be included. The NEWS aims for a balanced, broad view, but with comity. It shuns finger-pointing, hectoring, or similar uncivilities, roles many other communications and information channels more than adequately fulfill. By contrast, IPMnet emphasizes usable, factual, practical information with an occasional clearly identified opinion. However, it is not hesitant to point out a lack of facts or other shortcomings in materials intended for wide public consumption. Since by definition IPM can include virtually all pest management tactics, news about any method may appear in the NEWS. To IPMnet, the letters I, P, and M embrace concerns about all major classes of pests and are not limited to "insect pest management." Participants often help create the substance that has made IPMnet a major informative and cooperative global communication conduit for IPM/pest management information cutting across all related disciplines and professions. IPMnet is sponsored by the not-for-profit Consortium for International Crop Protection (CICP), a pioneer in international implementation of envi- ronmentally responsible pest management. The Consortium comprises 10 U.S. land grant universities, the Univ. of Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture. Though these institutions are within the extended U.S., IPMnet's charter clearly emphasizes a broad international focus. *---------------------------------------------------------------* | While there are other excellent, free, electronic periodic | | information sources that relate to IPM, CICP is not aware of | | any other comparable, broad-scope, regular monthly global | | information delivery service. | *---------------------------------------------------------------* Thus, if IPMnet's free information resources can be of service and support for your activities, or those of your colleagues, we encourage you to .....

Please forward to any information you believe would be of interest and use to the expanding worldwide IPM community, such as: # progress # new research # set-backs # technology (including production, field, and research equipment), and other products related to IPM # socio-economic aspects of adoption, methods, etc., or, # open positions and professional opportunities. IPMnet NEWS makes an effort to acknowledge sources, and authors of the materials/items it mentions. The NEWS also welcomes information about IPM-related PUBLICATIONS and CDs, as well as CALENDAR events (symposia, conferences, training courses, etc.). The IPMnet CALENDAR is one of the most complete, monthly revised lists available anywhere, and offers up-to-date information about international, regional, and national events related to IPM. Finally, IPMnet welcomes you to use its services, and looks forward to providing useful information in support of your professional or private interests and/or your organization's programs and goals. Cordially, --IPMnet Staff P.S. If you're willing, please forward this information to other individuals or institutions whom you believe have an interest in IPM, and encourage their participation. After all, IPM and the results its broad adoption can achieve, are potentially important in one way or another to nearly everybody. ### From owner-diagnostics@net.bio.net Wed Jun 16 07:17:00 1999 Path: biosci!biosci!not-for-mail From: "Maclaren, Ian" Newsgroups: bionet.diagnostics Subject: Wellcome HA-21: Russell Viper Venom Date: 16 Jun 1999 01:17:02 -0700 Organization: BIOSCI International Newsgroups for Molecular Biology Lines: 20 Sender: daemon@net.bio.net Approved: odonnell@sasa.gov.uk Distribution: world Message-ID: <7k7mhu$i81@net.bio.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: net.bio.net Does anyone know of a supplier of this product, first in Canada, then North America, then Europe.
