I met with a strange problem with my Joomla site. The login page does not remember my authentication session (both in IE and Firefox). However it works well when I am using other network connection.
I have migrated “ensembl + DAS” from Marie’s linux workstation to Kampen and Genesis successfully. Marie has helped me to do everything from scratch (including hacks on ensembl web codes), so that we can track on the changes made. Below is the draft I sent to Ramneek/Neal/Kevin/Tim for review. I also proposed having all these discussed in CMAB meeting when Ramneek is back.
昨天有折腾了一天，总算基本搞定买房的事情。回想起来，一路都是赶着过来，颇有一波三折的意思。

今天是外婆89岁生日, 多亏妈妈提醒, 早上打电话过去, 我和老婆都道祝福, 老人十分高兴.
Marie has developed as few DAS service for Ensembl web. Previously the DAS ran on Marie’s own machine and the support team is requried to move this to production. Before I move it, it will be set up on kampen as a testing environment.
看到一篇所谓“留日学生看日本”的文章，里面不实之处甚多，这里不进行辩论，只想另开一帖，对比一下中国的北京、上海与日本东京的普通老百姓的生活状态。
本人在中国长大，然后在中国也工作了数年，到日本后也生活了好几年，所以自认深深了解中国，也慢慢看懂了日本，所以看到网上很多关于中日两国老百姓生活水
平对比文章，觉得有些与事实中的情况不太一致，就在这里通过衣、食、住、行和购物来对比一下两国普通老百姓的生活水平，本人所讲都是客观的实际情况，希望
观者也能本着平静和客观的心态来正视和理解这种差距的真实存在性。
I once helped machine to install mysql4 on her own linux box. It is on /usr/local/ensembl/mysql4. To start this instance, login to marbore as my id, change folder to /usr/local/ensembl/mysql4 and do “bin/mysqld_safe –no-defaults &”. To access the local mysql server, do a “/usr/local/ensembl/mysql4/bin/mysql -u root”.
Well, things become complicated in this environment. Rmatlab enables inter-programming between Matlab and R, it uses mex (the matabl compiler) during installation to be installed within R as shared library, so that it can be used in matlab as well. Howerver, mex in Solaris hardcoded to use Solaris’s its own CC compiler, which we do not have. So I have to hack mex (the matlab compiler wrapper) to compile Rmatlab for R, using GCC on Solaris where there is no Solaris CC (Damn complicated).
