At school (Wesleyan University) and home I have access to the WWW, which is great. The amount of information available is amazing and very overwhelming. I just wish I knew more about it and how to access everything it has to offer. I did want to make a comment for your project, if it matters, and that is that it is great that several universities and colleges (actually most) offer relatively free (a low monthly cover fee) personal access and free general/campus-wide access. I believe this availability is definitely a significant factor to its widespread use and effectiveness at institutions of higher education. 'Just wanted to drop a quick note for a worthy project. I'd like to know what the results of your project are.:) sschlegel@wesleyan.edu From owner-embldatabank@net.bio.net Fri Jan 05 22:00:00 1996 Path: biosci!internet!biosci!not-for-mail From: biohelp (BIOSCI Administrator) Newsgroups: bionet.molbio.embldatabank Subject: BIOSCI miniFAQ, ver. 14-DEC-95 Date: 6 Jan 1996 02:00:36 -0800 Organization: BIOSCI International Newsgroups for Molecular Biology Lines: 199 Sender: daemon@net.bio.net Distribution: world Message-ID: <199601061000.CAA21153@net.bio.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: net.bio.net (LAST REVISION: 14-DEC-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/. Contents: -------- 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. 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 in addition to the master index for the entire set. 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.

There are three good ways of finding taxonomical information. 1. Tree of Life =============== http://phylogeny.arizona.edu/ A very good idea but needs a lot more work to cover more taxons. 2. NCBI Taxonomy Browser ======================== http://www3.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Taxonomy/Taxonomy/taxonomyhome.html The fastest way of finding the complete, hierarcial taxonomy. This taxonomy is from molecular biologists point of view. Classical taxonomists no doubt disagree in many cases. SRS (Sequence Retireval System) =============================== http://cypress.csc.fi:8001/srs/srsc SRS is the most powerful tool for browsing sequence databases. There are more than 15 servers world wide. SRS is developed st EMBL (http://www.embl-heidelberg.de:80/srs/srsc). If you check my server (or any other European servers), you will notice that the wording of the taxon hierarchy differs slightly in the European sequence database EMBL from that in US (GenBank). All the best, -Heikki Here are the classifications I found : ticks ===== http://www3.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/htbin-post/Taxonomy/wgetorg?id=6935&lvl=3 Eukaryotae; mitochondrial eukaryotes; Metazoa; Arthropoda; Chelicerata; Arachnida; Acari; Parasitiformes, Argasidae (soft ticks) | xodidae (hard ticks) bamboo, Bambusa sp. =================== http://www3.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/htbin-post/Taxonomy/wgetorg?id=4581&lvl=0 Eukaryotae; mitochondrial eukaryotes; Viridiplantae; Charophyta/Embryophyta group; Embryophyta; Magnoliophyta; Liliopsida; Poales; Poaceae pandorina ========= http://www3.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/htbin-post/Taxonomy/wgetorg?id=33098&lvl=0 Eukaryotae; mitochondrial eukaryotes; Viridiplantae; Chlorophyta; Chlorophyceae; Volvocales; Volvocaceae Fusarium sp. ============ http://www3.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/htbin-post/Taxonomy/wgetorg?id=5506&lvl=0 Eukaryotae; mitochondrial eukaryotes; Eumycota; Ascomycota; Euascomycetes; Pyrenomycetes; Hypocreales; Hypocreaceae; mitosporic Hypocreaceae OC Eukaryota; Plantae; Thallobionta; Eumycota; Ascomycotina; OC Pyrenomycetes; Hypocreales; Hypocreaceae.
