Proteome Commons Tranche firewall problem (www.proteomecommons.org)
Tuesday, October 18th, 2011The java client for this site didn’t work on our systems here… the website’s troubleshooting wasn’t much use, it just says open port 443(https) and port 1045 . No other details… After a bit of sleuthing by our network guy, the solution was that there are actually other ports that need to be opened, they are:
NTP port, or otherwise known as tcp port 123, and udp port 123 outgoing
the known ones are - as repeated here:
https outgoing
and
1045 (tcp) port outgoing
Seoul Garden, 34W. 32nd St., #2Fl. New York, NY 10001
Monday, October 17th, 2011Went there Oct 9 for lunch. It’s located in the main street of Koreatown. Quality was very good, the dolsot bimbimbap was very good, as was the beef tofu stew. For the stew, I had asked for a mild, but it still came out very spicy.
The restaurant itself is on the second floor, up a flight of dingy stairs. Quite large restaurant, actually.
I’d give it an 8/10 rating.
Hours, Sun-Thur. 11am to midnight
Fri-Sat 11am to 2am
Seriously geeky papercraft
Sunday, September 18th, 2011Exercises at the office chair
Sunday, September 18th, 2011While sitting in a waiting room for literally weeks, I could feel my muscles start to atrophy… so I started to research into exercises I could do at a chair…

The moves here involving stretching and strengthening your body, all within the comfort of your office chair.

Precautions
See your doctor before trying this workout if you have any injuries, illnesses or other conditions. Make sure the chair you use is stable. If you have wheels, push it against a wall to make sure it won’t roll away.
