"Wheel of the Teachings" is a gentle adventure game, incorporating Buddhist teachings. As you walk through a painted landscape, your goal is to find and collect all of the hidden wheels. Each wheel represents one spoke of Buddha's 8-Fold Path. For each 2 wheels you discover, you will then be able to find one of the Four Noble Truths. Along the way, you'll also find quotations from the sayings of Buddha, as well as mantras and sutras. "Wheel of the Teachings" is distributed as a gift of dharma. However, if you do wish to make a monetary donation, it may be sent to: Brian Kelley 4333 Rt. 9N Greenfield Center, NY 12833-2000 USA May all beings attain Perfect Peace. How To Play More Information About The Dharma CompleatMac Software Important Note: A monitor resolution of 640 x 480 is strongly recommended for this game. Playing The Game "Wheel of the Teachings" is a non-violent walk-through game. The goal is to find all of the hidden wheels. The wheels look like this: The best strategy to use in the game would be to click on everything you see. Sometimes you'll find wheels, sometimes you'll find sutras and mantras, sometimes you'll see quotations from the sayings of Buddha. For each 2 of the wheels you find, you'll then be able to find one of the Four Noble Truths, which are represented here by books: You'll find one of these books on each of the game's four levels. In order to complete each level, you must find both of that level's wheels and its Noble Truth (book). Once you do so, you will be able to go to the next level. Cursor Feedback This game uses a "cursor feedback" system. You'll know when you've found something when your normal cursor changes to this: Similarly, you'll know which directions are available for movement according to the way the cursors change: Look up Go Back (or Look Down) Go Left Go Right The cardinal rule of gameplay is: click on everything! One is not a bearer of the teaching by virtue of much speaking, but he who, even if he has only studied a little, has experienced the truth in person, he is indeed a bearer of the teaching, who has not forgotten the teaching. --The Dhammapada The World Wide Web contains a wealth of information about Buddhism.

Q-RT-PCR: data analysis software for measurement of gene expression by competitive RT-PCR Peter A. Doris and Jon K. Hays, Sr.* Dept. of Cell Biology and Biochemistry and *Dept. of Computer Services Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center Lubbock, Texas 79430 Peter A. Doris, Ph.D. Dept. of Cell Biology and Biochemistry Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center Lubbock, TX 79430 email: cbbpad@wpoffice.net.ttuhsc.edu Contents: Abstract Introduction Theory Software Requirements Installation Use Notice Problem Reports References 2 ABSTRACT. We have developed software to assist in the computation of gene expression from data obtained in competitive RT-PCR. Here we describe the mathematical basis of competitive RT-PCR and discuss the criteria which must be met to permit accurate estimations of gene expression to be obtained using this technique. The software which has been developed assists in both the assessment of assay performance and in the routine analysis of data obtained in either titration-based or single tube quantitation of gene expression by competitive RT-PCR. The software is a 100Kb module which functions as a Microsoft Excel add-in. It is compatible with both Windows and Mac versions of Excel 5 and Excel 7 on the Windows 95 platform and employs the spreadsheet, statistical and graphing capabilities incorporated into Excel. 3 INTRODUCTION Quantitation of gene expression by competitive RT-PCR has been developed to the extent that it can now be considered, if applied rigorously, a well-evaluated, robust, quantitative method capable of providing accurate and precise estimates of the abundance of specific transcripts in RNA preparations, even in very small sample sizes (1). However, the mathematical concepts involved are complex and have not been conducive to the rigorous application of this technique. The software we describe here will, it is hoped, remove the problems associated with complex computations and allow the user to evaluate their competitive RT-PCR systems thoroughly and to perform routine data analysis easily. There are several requirements which can provide for quantitative accuracy in competitive RT-PCR. Many of these have been discussed in our papers (see references below). Some issues (RT efficiency differences between competitors and native template) have been studied and will be reported in forthcoming papers from our laboratory, please check Medline. The following assumptions are made in using this software: 1. The competitor used is a highly homologous RNA. We have not demonstrated that RT and PCR efficiencies can be identical for heterologous competitors (e.g. Clontech mimics). 2. The user has performed estimates using known starting quantities of both native and competitor RNA and has demonstrated that the system accurately est…
