Departmental newsletters?

I'm tinkering with HTML e-mail templates for the GCBlog system.

This might be an easy path to departmental newsletters: PR would need to set up an HTML e-mail template and populate a mailman list. Then producing a nice-looking e-mail newsletter could be as simple as what SST-leaders do to send out an update: Type up a couple of blog entries and (optionally) upload a handful of photos.

We'll certainly be able to use this next Advent to HTML-ize the devotions newsletters.

Getting started
[www.goshen.edu...] -- "Blogin" and then...

Click edit/entries
Click your category (aka blog)
Click Edit e-mail distribution lists
Scroll down, and you'll see a (separate) e-mail distribution list for daily Text/HTML multi-part messages, and below that is the template for multi-part messages.
You can click sample template to fill in that field with a sample template with all the pieces and meta-variables you'll need.

Posted at 12:32 #

GCBlogs now do multi-part e-mail templates
To use the e-mail templates, you'll put in "meta-variables" inside of curly brackets that will be replaced in the generated e-mail as follows:

STARTTEXT - The beginning of the text section (includes the auto-generated multi-part e-mail boundary)

STARTHTML - The beginning of the HTML section (includes an appropriate boundary)

TITLE - The blog entry title

FULLHTML - The complete text of the blog entry--with any markup that was included in the original blog posting

FULLTEXT - The complete text of the blog entry -- "textified", so that for example p tags get changed in to blank lines, etc

ABSTRACTTEXT - (not yet implemented) this could the first 100 characters or so of the entry--useful as summary for really long blog entries.

THUMBNAIL - an image tag (with class='thumb') pointing to the first thumbnail if it exists. Otherwise this is empty.

PERMALINK - the URL pointing to the particular blog (article) entry.

testing images

The first thumbnail (if present) can be included. It has class='thumb' attached, so your e-mail template can target img.thumb .

Grey's Monument
He is best known in the U.S. for the tea. Charles, the second Earl Grey was from a Northumbrian family, He rose to become Prime Minister in 1830, and his likeness rose to the top of this column at what is arguably the spiritual center of the city of Newcastle.

We had been on a list to get into the monument since September. Only seven people at a time are allowed up at a time on occasional Saturdays, and our turn finally came this weekend. The kids counted 164 steps to the top. Great views of the downtown, though a bit hazy further off. You can still see the landmarks of the 'New'castle and the lantern spire of Saint Nicholas in the middle distance.

Earl Grey was a Whig most famous for his career-long passion for Parliamentary reform, culminating in the reform act of 1832. He also oversaw the act that abolished slavery from the British Empire in 1833.

Members of Parliement at that time included the patrons of historically privileged villages with a handful of houses. Meanwhile the new industrial cities, such as Manchester, had no representation. But how can you change a system in which a few wield power to one of more proportional representation?

Reform was a very popular cause, but failed repeatedly in the House of Lords. Grey succeeded by convincing the King to appoint a flock of new, sympathetic Whig as peers, thus 'packing' the House of Lords!

New graphics back-end for GCBlogs

The first two images (click on the thumbnails) above were made with the gd graphics library, which is built in to current php builds, but does not yet offer sharpening (or gamma correction?).

The second two thumbnails were made with the new ImageMagick [sic] graphics library. I've put in hooks to let people do basic gamma correction, and my algorithms choose how much to sharpen images and thumbnails.

The last thumbnails take you to screenshots of the image editing screen you see right after uploading an image, and the thumbnail selection page.

Finding the genes
From "Beginning Perl for BioInformatics"

It is therefore quite common to examine all six reading frames of a DNA sequence and to look at the resulting protein translations for long stretches of amino acids that lack stop codons.

The stop codons are definite breaks in the DNAprotein translation process. During translation (actually of RNA to protein, but I'm being deliberately informal and vague about the biochemistry), if a stop codon is reached, the translation stops, and the growing peptide chain grows no more.

Long stretches of DNA that don't contain any stop codons are called open reading frames (ORFs) and are important clues to the presence of a gene in the DNA under study. So gene finder programs need to perform the type of reading frame analysis we'll do in this chapter.
