"Hmmm." Kenren looked up at the sky for a moment and then nodded his head. "Are you afraid of water? Or anything like that?"
"No actually, not at all. Funny, considering I'm Fire, but I enjoy swimming and waterfalls and the like." Ran smiled, "Lead the way to whatever place you have in mind."
The wall dented and spider-webbed outwards from the point of impact where his fist hit. How could his father ask him to do such a thing? Kill his own friend?
'Does Heaven really need two unclean beings?'
'Kill him.'
Nataku gripped his head. The hurt on Goku's face when he turned away. It ripped at his heart. Why?! Goku wasn't a threat. He wasn't hostile. He was only a threat to his position because without his shackles, without his diadem, he was more powerful than him. Was that it? He defeated /Goumou/! He could hold his own, and he doubted Goku would fight him, anyway. Goku wouldn't take any position of power. He fight against the forces that be so he /wouldn't/. Goku was too kind, to happy, to hold the same responsibilities he had had since birth. Didn't his father see that?!
No, no of course not. He would have to avoid Goku at all costs now. Yet, how long would that last? It broke his heart and he wanted to cry. What about Kaede? Would his father want him to take care of her, too? Or would there be something worse? "Please...please just let this /end/ without me killing either of them." He whispered into the cold, dark, lonely room.
He would rather kill himself than hurt either of them.
"We're going out!" Mai said happily as she flung the door open into Riko's and Kaede's room. Kaede was in the middle of braiding Riko's hair, and Riko had dressed down for the evening. Not quite nighttime attire, but close enough. "Come on. You can just wear that. No one's gonna be paying attention."
"Mai-chan, it's late." Riko frowned deeply but waited till Kaede was done with her braid to stand up. "Where are we going?"
"Kenren's in the mood and Tenpou's looking for some fun. We're grabbing Konzen and Goku too. I'm sure he'd love to have Kaede around, yeah?" Mai beamed. "Come on, let's go! Ran's gonna be bringing the good stuff too."
"It's been a while since I've seen Goku. He was really upset last time that Nataku turned away from him." That had been at least a week ago. "This sounds exciting!"
Riko sounded grumpy, but she was just tired and Kaede knew it. They followed Mai, being joined by Ran midway, and apparently Ran knew where they were going, too. When she saw the cherry trees glowing in the full moon, she gasped and awed at it, then spotted Goku in a tree, "Goku! We're here!" she called waving her arm enthusiastically.
Ran saw Kenren also in the tree, but not nearly as far up, "You having fun up there?!"
"It's a blast! Hey ladies, looking good!" Kenren said, waving his hand at them. "You can distract Konzen and Tenpou from their boring talk. They won't stop."
"Oh that's a shame." Mai laughed as she sat down next to Tenpou and smiled at him. "The cherry blossoms are beautiful. They don't last long, though I suppose since this place has no seasons, they last longer than they look."
"Kaede!" Goku waved back excitedly, the branch wavering precariously, but he didn't notice it. "Look how high we are! You should come up!"
"They bloom every day, it's practically permanent. However, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, is it not?" Tenpou held an empty glass out to her, "I trust Ran brought with her her own sake?"
"Kenren told me what he drinks, so I have a bottle of that!" Ran beamed.
"Well then, let me just pour you some." Tenpou had the bottle between him and Konzen, so instead of getting Ran to open he bottle quite yet, he used what was already available.
"You look comfortable." Konzen commented as Riko sat down with a sigh, "Didn't want to be here?"
"I'm not a monkey, but I could try!" Kaede called back, jogging over to the tree.
Riko shook her head from side to side, "I didn't know I was going to be invited late out. Mai said it was alright for me to wear what I was wearing, no one would think twice." She tugged at the night attire with a soft smile on her face. "But I am glad to get out of the place. My head would just be spinning like crazy otherwise."
Mai beamed happily as she was poured her own cup and passed it to Riko before getting one for herself. "So whose idea was it? Kenren's?"
"I was bored and it's too good of a night to just sleep." Kenren said, his legs dangling from the branch. "Besides, when have you all looked at the flowers and actually enjoyed them."
"Ah, fair enough." Riko laughed warmly. "Though looking is quite an understatement for me."
Before Kenren could open his mouth to say something, there was a loud crack, and Riko felt a strong sense of wind come from above and she looked over just as there was a thud on the ground. "Goku?"
"Awwwaah! I'm sorry Konzen!" Goku cried out. "I didn't mean to!"
Subject: Re: What Does Heaven Look Like To You-Saiyuki Gaiden AU Sun Jul 02, 2017 10:27 pm
Ran covered her mouth but she was snorting laughter behind it, and Kenren was balancing precariously as he cracked up above in the tree. "Great catch, daddy." They echoed together, and Ran looked up to grin at Kenren.
"What the hell do you think you're doing, falling on me like that?! Your shackles make you weigh over 100 kilograms! You could've killed me!" Konzen grabbed Goku in a headlock and dug his knuckles into his head, "You need to be more careful!"
Riko was laughing at first but then her laughter cut off. "What do you mean the shackles weigh 100 kilos?"
"Uh oh momma bear's coming out." Mai giggled from her spot, covering her mouth. "Ease up, Ri-chan. Goku's alright. We'll figure out a way to get those things off of him when Heaven stops freaking out about things that don't matter."
Goku was a little surprised that Riko had gotten defensive about the shackles. They hurt a little, they were cold, but they were mostly in his way. The way she sounded though, made it sound like that the shackles were supposed to do a lot more than that...or maybe not. "I'm alright." He said cheerfully. "Ne, ne, Ri-chan. Do you know how to sing?! Mai-chan do you?"
"Singing all of the sudden Goku? We're not that drunk yet." Mai laughed, taking a sip of the cup. "But a song huh? Do you think if we're loud enough, we could disturb the peace?"
"It depends on how raunchy the song is." Kenren grinned.
"Oh hell no." Mai cracked up. "Not with kids around, damn Kenren."
"I could come up there and sing for you instead." Ran smirked up at him. She was ready to take some sort of risk tonight, and if that risk was kissing Kenren, then she'd do it.
"The calm before the storm is the best time for anything." Tenpou smiled at Ran knowingly, "Go up there, then! You have your own bottle of sake." Ran stuck her tongue out at him and he laughed, watching her run to the tree and hop up to grab the lowest branch.
"We get to watch Ran do some acrobatics!" Kaede laughed as she wrapped her arms around Goku when he managed to escape from Konzen, "Are you okay? The fall really didn't hurt you?"
"No, I'm fine. It was just startling." Goku said spinning around. "See?"
Mai clapped her hands as she watched Ran go up the tree. "Up, up, up you go!" She shouted to her friend. "You know, I was just thinking." She turned to Tenpou. "I remember telling you about the mountains up in our district and I just remembered. I /got/ to show the water fall when we get there. There's one /right/ underneath the town. Legends say it can cure anything to everything."
Goku perked up at the story. "Really?!"
"Yeah. They don't know how or why the waterfall flows under the town, there's no river or anything that leads into it. Almost everyone that's found it and went in, was cured of something." Mai explained to Goku.
"Can it cure Riko's blindness?" Goku asked.
Riko shook her head from side to side. "It doesn't need to be cured."
"Huh?" Goku turned his attention to Riko who was calmly sipping on the cup. "You don't wanna see?"
"Oh I would love to see," Riko corrected. "But I like being blind more. I don't know. I'm more comfortable. Sure, seeing is wonderful. I'd love to know what you look like Goku. But at the same time, I'm happy and content exactly as I am. I don't need my eyes. I have my hands and they're just as good. Come here." She gestured for him to come close and she placed her hand in his. "You have a strong chi. A stronger sense of will and innocence. You're one of the few who is content to be as is. A lot of people would die, would kill, to change even one aspect of themselves. But you're pleased to be exactly as you are, flaws and everything and that's good. Because of that, you see things us adults can't see. So, even though I'm blind physically, we're all blind in some way. It seems to me you're our eyes. We're going to rely on you for that."
Goku didn't understand a lot of what she said, but he understood that he was important. He was important and that she was telling him that he was reliable. He knew that was an important thing to be. He grinned, "That's so cool!" He hugged her suddenly, making Riko gasp in surprise at the weight. Konzen wasn't kidding. He pulled away quickly and ran off with Kaede, "Kaede did you hear all of that?"
"I did! Riko's real good at readings! It's probably why she swept Ran from her wandering." Kaede giggled. She latched herself back onto Goku's arm, "Tell us more about your home, Ka-san, Mai!" She'd never been there, but she loved hearing about it.
"But first, before I get beaten to the punch..." Tenpou grabbed Mai's hand and took her sake cup from her just so he could bring her in and he cupped her cheek tenderly but swiftly, pulling her into a surprise kiss.
"Aw, Tenpou!" Ran mock pouted, but she laughed and looked at Kenren from her branch. It was an easy jump, but she still grinned when Kenren gripped it tightly as she made it shake with her landing, and then when she plopped down on it, "You know how to pick 'em! This is a great view!"
"They just kissed didn't they?" Riko asked amused as she listened to Kenren's laugh.
"Isn't it?" Kenren gestured to the tree branch that was now broken. "Goku had it better, but I like places where I can easily jump from. Hey Tenpou, you should use a little more tongue."
Mai made a squeak that sounded either very encouraging or horrified and it made Kenren laugh again. "Your friend is so easy to tease." He told Ran. "Though I gotta admit, I'm curious to know a little more about that home town too. I want to see Tenpou a kept man over there."
"Kept." Riko laughed. "What about you Kenren?"
"I'm saying nothing till after the storm's over." Kenren winked, knowing too well she couldn't see it. "Though what about you and Konzen over there. You already have two kids. You're /way/ ahead of us."

"It's none of your business, you letch." Konzen snapped at him, when all he got was a laugh he growled and pushed his hair off his shoulder with a humph. "Whatever stories you have to tell about your district are no doubt a lot more exciting than this one."
Oh. Would kissing him be a bad idea, then? Should she wait? Ran's smile faltered a bit, but she took the sake bottle from her hip and held it out to him to cover, "You made Konzen mad."
Tenpou gave Mai back her sake cup and chuckled when she drowned it. Tugging her close, he kissed her cheek next, "I hope you weren't opposed to that."

"Of course not. I wasn't expecting it, is all." Mai said, her cheeks red. She hoped that Tenpou hadn't thought that her drowning the cup was supposed to wash off the kiss or anything! She didn't know what to do, she hadn't expected him to kiss her. But it felt nice and bold.
Kenren noticed that Ran was debating over something, but he wasn't exactly sure as to what. He wasn't about to open his mouth and ruin a moment. Maybe she needed to get her mind off of things. He looked back down to see Goku and Kaede sitting in front of Riko, both of them ready to listen to whatever Riko had to say.
She was quiet. Gathering her thoughts and stories. "In our district," She said after a moment. "We have something called "rain" and we have something called "thunderstorms"."
"Ah?!" Goku perked.
"Mai is usually apart of it, but usually sometimes the three of them get bored. When the kids want to play or when it's been particularly bad for crops and farming, Mai will do a sunshower. Or she would ask me to help use my wind to make clouds and create a rain storm. The thunder and lightening are actually twin siblings. They're fantastic at it. One of them has a powerful drum that they use to single that a lightening bolt is going to strike. Some of us put bets on where, who or what. The lightning up where we are isn't as dangerous, or as fearful as the rainstorms and thunderstorms down below. No one gets hurt, and it's basically just a way for farmers to get water to plants that are harder to reach. As for the purpose of a lightening or thunder, it's usually because the twins are bored and they want to have a show. Sometimes, if we're really feeling it, we turn it into a little festival. Just because we all want to relax, to have a bit of fun. It's not every day Mai and the twins will go out and do their thing like that. And it's definitely not every day I indulge them with my wind to have clouds that'd hold enough rain to do a downpour. Takes a lot of energy to do that."
"Ah, maybe you could get us to meet whenever we manage to get over there!" Tanpou smiled wide, "I'd love to meet these thunder and lightning twins. They sound like a lot of fun. Also sounds like people Kenren would get along with."
"If they get bored, we can show them how to have fun! Isn't that right, Kenren?" Ran grinned at the man beside her and she popped the lid to the sake, taking a swig right from the bottle, not bothering with a cup.
"Yeah! We could all play in the rain together!" Kaede looked at Goku excitedly, "Can you imagine? Rain! Seasons! I'm surprised you didn't take me there before, Ka-san!"
"That'd be so awesome! I'd want to meet the twins." Goku agreed, "Nataku would get a kick out of them. Are there places to pick berries? And do other things?"
"All sorts, but we'd be here all night telling you." Mai laughed. "But berries are definitely around."
Kenren leaned back, his smile wide. "I can't wait to see your district. Do you have a military yourselves?"
"We do and we don't." Riko said after a moment of thought. "We all know how to fight, but those who are /really/ into it are war gods. You'd have to talk to them about joining. They're not particular. You'd just have to jump a few hoops."
"I see, so a transfer wouldn't work." Kenren sighed disappointed.
"No. A transfer would just make them laugh really." Riko shook her head fondly. "They like watching. Knowing what they're getting. You thinking about trying to get into the military there? Or do you think you'd take another path?"
"Dunno. I'm good at what I do. Tenpou?" Kenren looked down at his friend. "You're good at what you do too."
"Perhaps I'd simply go full bore into reasearch?" Tenpou contemplated, "Just because I can fight, and fight well, doesn't mean I want to. I wouldn't serve with anybody else, so if you can't be in the military, than neither will I."
"You do love your books. I'm sure Mai's district has a big, big library! She does love books a lot, just like you!" Kaede giggled, her arms wide to show the size.
"It is probably a lot bigger than ours." Tenpou smirked at Mai, "I might have my work cut out for me, even."
Konzen snorted, "I'm just good at writing and signing paperwork."
"But you also have Goku." Mai pointed out. "You're smart, you know what's going on in this district. You'd be able to find your path, even if it's something you never thought of before. There have been other gods who felt like they lost their purpose, or lost their sense of self that'd come to our district to visit and come back with ideas and inspiration. I'm sure you won't be immune to it.'
"Tenpou as the Book Keeper. Finally." Kenren whistled. "That'd be something that'd be you all the way through. You're practically one anyway, with your damn stealing."
"It's /borrowing/, thank you!" Tenpou scoffed, but he smiled mostly to himself.
"I don't know nearly as much as I should, or that I would like. I'll take your word for it, however." Konzen drawled, and looked over at Riko, popping his Ki to get her attention without having to reach over and touch her from his comfortable position leaned back with a barely drunk sake cup in his hand, "Why did you leave?"
Subject: Re: What Does Heaven Look Like To You-Saiyuki Gaiden AU Tue Jul 04, 2017 8:08 am
Riko was kind of surprised by the ki, and she turned her face to look over at him when he asked his question. A thoughtful look crossed her face as she thought about the answer. Why did she leave her district when it was clearly a lot more colorful than the one that they were in right now? "I hate to be a cop-out, but I was needed elsewhere."
Goku perked. "Elsewhere?"
Riko turned her face towards the noise, "Yes. See, I'm the Goddess of Divine Hearing, and a lot of people take that as how well I hear and how far my range is. I'm not sure how to even describe my range of hearing, but we'll just say that it's probably just as good as yours Goku." She took a sip of her sake. "But I'm not really a very good Goddess. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that I'm a pretty horrible one. I meddle too much. Way too much. I don't really agree with the idea that all I do is "hear" so I do something else. I listen and when there's unrest or when I know someone needs my help, I step in."
"You knew about the military then, and what was going on." Kenren mused. "It reached all the way to your district?"
"Actually I was quite a ways a way from it, I was in another person's district trying to determine of one god was overstepping boundaries." Riko confessed. "But when I heard of Goku arriving, did I notice a shift of direction. So I came here, and apparently gained a bodyguard in the process."
Subject: Re: What Does Heaven Look Like To You-Saiyuki Gaiden AU Wed Jul 05, 2017 4:24 pm
Konzen actually took a sip of the sake now, and he watched her, "You've been here for some time, you also gained a daughter. It wasn't just Goku. I understand what Divine Hearing means. Hearing beyond what a person is saying, between the lines."
"Confirmed! I was complaining about the stars when she found me and I didn't say it out loud." Ran pointed down at Riko and took another sip of sake.
"The words in the heart." Kaede nodded with a grin.
"You were complaining about the /stars/." Kenren gave Ran a look. "The sun I understand. The new moon I can understand, but what on earth could a /star/ do that'd cause you to get upset about it?"
Riko started laughed. "You know, when you put it that way...I should've been more curious about it. I was taking it abstractly. You know, a metaphor."
"Maybe I'll tell you the reason some other time." Ran stuck her tongue out, "It doesn't even matter now. Riko fixed it."
"Well, that's good." Tenpou smiled, and he looked between all of them. The laughing, the stories, he kissed Mai, but he felt maybe it wasn't quite enough. "I did say in the calm before the storm..." he mused under his breath and as Mai looked at him confused, he finished his cup and set it aside. Standing, he reached out to Mai, "If you and Riko aren't quite ready to sing yet, maybe we could dance to our own tune instead?"

1906 Industrial Issue - Progress in Eastern NC
Contributed by Martha Mewborn Marble
This Industrial Issue of the Kinston Free Press was published in 1906 although there was an earlier Industrial Issue published in 1899. The issue is composed of both text and numerous pictures of places and people. This will be a slow project so please be patient.
We are grateful to the Free Press for permission to post anything of historical or genealogical in nature published prior to 1939.
PROGRESS OF EASTERN CAROLINA
P 15 - 20
GREAT PROGRESS IN EASTERN CAROLINA
Largely due to Transportation Development
NOTE: Above in a box
In the West we expect to hear of the wilderness developing, of new lands coming under cultivation and of cities rising up in a night. In the older states, like those comprising the South, such phenomena are unexpected if not surprising. Things here are more conservative and slow-moving, and yet in North Carolina we have just now the same phenomena that the growing West presents - the building-up of waste places, the development of natural resources, the creation of new industries and the rapid growth of towns and cities.
In this onward movement, the whole State shares, but just now no part of it is developing so rapidly as the Tidewater Section, through which the Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad runs. Here many millions of dollars have been spent in the past eighteen months in reconstructing old railroad lines and building new ones, in utilizing the timber supply and promoting agriculture, in erecting factories and starting up new enterprises, wherever the supply of raw material justifies it.
It is the fruit of railway enterprise, backed by the progressiveness of a public- spirited citizenship. Big as are the things already accomplished great things are promised for the future. A new era is beginning for Eastern Carolina, an era of great industrial development under modern conditions.
NORTH CAROLINA'S INDUSTRIAL GROWTH
The best evidence of the industrial advantages and possibilities of North Carolina is to be found in the progress made during the past few years.
According to the reports of the Twelfth Census (1900) the capital invested in manufacturing in this State increased nearly 134 per cent and the value of manufactured products increased 135 per cent.
There was more capital in one single industry (cotton manufacturing) in 1900 than there was in all the industries of the State in 1890.
Ten North Carolina counties now have more money invested in manufacturing enterprises than the entire State had ten years ago.
The value of the products of two industries, cotton manufacturing and lumbering, is far great now than all the manufactured products of the State in 1890.
The industrial progress which North Carolina is making is further indicated by the fact that during the past year 229 more miscellaneous factories were built than during the previous year. Within the past twelve months about seven hundred charters were granted. No other Southern State is being development at so rapid a rate.
MANUFACTURE OF WOOD PRODUCTS
It will be interesting to examine, in detail the industries in which North Carolina, particularly this section of it, has made the most notable progress.
First in importance, on account of its magnitude as well as on account of the opportunity it has offered for profitable investment, is the lumber industry. In this Eastern North Carolina easily ranks first among the timber-producing sections of the South - not only by virtue of the quantity of lumber manufactured and sold, but likewise on account of the variety of mercantile woods found in its forests.
At Newbern a few years ago there were exhibited no less than eighty varieties of native economic woods.
In point of value short leaf pine comes first, long leaf pine second and cypress third. The hard-woods, such as ash, oak, gum, hickory, birch, poplar, juniper, dogwood, persimmon, elm, maple, etc., are found in varying quantities, and contribute to the volume and value of the wood products of Eastern North Carolina.
This abundance of raw material close at hand, together with the excellent transportation facilities afforded by water and rail to all the important lumber centres, makes Eastern North Carolina a most advantageous place for the manufacture of wood products of all sorts.
In view of these facts it is not strange that factories for the working-up of wood and timber into various finished products are all successful and paying enterprises. The manufacture of furniture has proved especially profitable. One furniture factory on the line of the Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad which began business 14 years ago with a capital of $11,500, has paid $68,000, in cash to its stockholders and has apportioned them stock-dividends amounting to 479,500 making its capital stock now $90,000. This factory sells furniture direct to the furniture factories of Grand Rapids, Mich. the most famous furniture manufacturing centre in this country. It finds markets as far south as Texas and as far west as San Francisco.
WHERE FURNITURE FACTORIES PAY
In this connection it would, perhaps, not be out of place to institute a comparison between North Carolina and Michigan in the furniture industry. By reference to the last census such a comparison shows that each $100 invested in the manufacture of furniture in Michigan yields a product valued at $105, while in North Carolina a similar investment yields a product valued at $151, a difference of 46 per cent. In favor of North Carolina.
In 1890 there were six little furniture factories in North Carolina with a capital of $126,350, and the total annual value of their products was $159,000. In 1900 there were forty-four factories with a capital of $1,023,374 and their products were valued at $1,457,305 - a growth in ten years of nearly a thousand fold. These figures have been very largely increased during the past five years, since the census was taken. This remarkable showing proves conclusively that success is assured to the enterprising man who embarks in wood-working factories in Eastern North Carolina.
Recognizing our advantages here in this respect, many manufacturers have invested in wood-working plants in this territory, such as box and crate factories, sash and door factories, buggy and wagon factories, pulp mills and the like. But the business is far from being overdone, not even the local market being entirely supplied, and there is room here for many more industries of this sort.
Eastern North Carolina is the natural habitat of what is known in the commercial world as North Carolina pine. It abounds chiefly in the tidewater section. Less that twenty years ago it was a despised and cast-out wood, but now it is one of our most valuable woods. By the use of modern machinery for its manufacture it has reached a state of perfection not dreamed of a few years ago, and finds a ready sale in every lumber yard of the country. From an insignificant output less than a generation ago, its annual production now aggregates something like seven hundred and fifty million feet.
It is a wood of rapid growth, and scientific investigation has shown that it reproduces itself more quickly in Eastern North Carolina than anywhere else in the world. It yields from three to five thousand feet every nine years --that is to say, it can be cut over in periods of that time. In point of strength and durability yellow pine ranks next to white oak, and stands the ravages of insects and climatic conditions better than any other known wood.
Southern timber lands have proven highly profitable investments in past years, and there is every reason why the future should bring even better returns. The development of the lumber regions of Eastern North Carolina has assisted in increasing the values of the various kinds of timber lands, and while the lumbering and milling operations now in progress are vast, yet plenty of properties remain available to buyers for investments and to mill men.
THE DESPISED GUM TREE
Nor is the pine the only tree of value found in our forests. The tidewater section of North Carolina is likewise rich in cypress, gum, juniper, birch, maple and other hardwoods. The stumpage of these is confined principally to the swamps and pocosins, and their manufacture into staves, shingles, laths and the like, is carried on with much success and profit. Each year the hardwood are advancing and will increase in value being worth fully five times as much to-day as they were ten years ago. Spools are manufactured from birch, the birch blocks being shipped to Scotland to be worked up for the thread mills. Dogwood and persimmon are cut into block, sent to England and made into bobbins for our cotton factories. Maple is converted into lasts for the shoemaker, and locust supplies the pins on which telephone, telegraph and electric light wires are strung. These woods once - and that not so long ago - were considered good only for firewood, and not very good even for that.
The uses to which the hardwoods are put are similar, except possibly that of sweet gum. Though, perhaps the commonest timber tree in the hardwood belt of the south, it has always been regarded as worthless. More recently, however, gum has come into demand for new uses, and has attained a merchantable value. For many years it has been used to a limited extent in the manufacture of furniture. This use of it is constantly growing, especially in the making of the commoner grades of drawers, frames, and backing for desks, tables, etc. The furniture factories use annually 40,000 to 60,000 board feet of this lumber - figures which show that red gum is becoming a thoroughly established wood in the market. Another important use for red gum is for interior finish. Stained or in its natural color, it may be made very attractive, and when properly seasoned fulfills every requirement of a first-class wood for that purpose. Recently lumber dealers have been introducing red gum flooring on the market. They advertise it as lasting longer than other wood now used in flooring, as having a smoother surface and as being easier to handle.
MILLIONS IN STAVES
But a more recent use for it, and one that promises to greatly increase the value of gum on the market, is the manufacture of barrel staves, headings and hoops. For this purpose it is now one of the most important woods in the country. Up to five years ago, elm, spruce, and some cotton-wood were used, but with the growing scarcity and consequent advance in price of these, a substitute had to be found. After many experiments a process was discovered by which the tendency of gum to warp and break when dried was overcome, and at the present time gum for stave-making is being generally adopted.
There is in Newbern a large factory - The North Carolina Stave Company - for the utilization of gum timber in this way. It is under a long-time contract for two carloads of sugar-barrel staves per day. This process having been demonstrated to be a success, it means the utilization of the great quantities of gum now growing on the swamp lands in Eastern North Carolina. The sugar stave factory's success presents the possibility of other like enterprises, these being oil-barrel, pork-barrel, and flour-barrel staves, etc. With the new drying process, there are a great many uses that might be made of gum timber. Half a dozen factories like that at Newbern could easily find a market for their out put, but could not exhaust the gum trees in swamps of Eastern North Carolina as they grow miraculously fast.
SUBSIDIARY ENTERPRISES
The output of dressed and undressed lumber from mills located along the line of the Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad aggregates considerably over 100,000,000 feet a year. Some of these mill have a capacity of more than 50,000 feet a day, and attached to them are dry kilns and planing mills with all the latest mechanical improvements.
In connection with this immense output of lumber there is inevitable great waste both in the forest and at the mills, and this suggests the economic principle of co-ordinated industries. The cutters leave in the forest "fat" stumps and box-faces. These would supply the raw material, at almost no cost, to the pine-products factory for the making of turpentine and tar. And there would be enough material left ready at hand to keep a dozen kindling-wood plants busy. Along with the manufacture of the lumber at the mill there is a great quantity of material, now for the most part wasted or used for fuel, that could be utilized to great advantage and profit in the making of boxes for the shipment of vegetables, specialties for building, such as cornices, wainscoting, newel-posts, moulding, and the like. In this way nothing would be wasted.
The need of this territory is more diversified minor industries, subsidiary to the greater lumber industries now in operation. Plants of this sort not only utilize products that otherwise go to waste, they give profitable employment to all our people - women and children as well as men - and in many ways contribute to the well being and prosperity of the community.
TOBACCO MANUFACTURING
North Carolina has long been famous for its factories for the manufacturing of smoking and chewing tobacco. Some of the largest tobacco factories in the world are located in this State, the name of Duke, Blackwell, Haynes, Reynolds, and others being famous around the world in this connection. In 1890 the capital invested in this industry in the State was $4,783,491. Ten years later that capital had been more than trebled.
While great fortunes have been made in the business, opportunities are still open for profitable investment of capital in it. Not many years ago the culture of bright tobacco was thought to be profitable only in the Piedmont section of the State. But experience has proved quite to the contrary. Something like a quarter of a century ago experiments were made in tobacco culture at one or two points along the line of the Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad and they proved a success from the start. While the tobacco was larger in growth than that on higher lands, it was as bright and delicate of texture as any produced on the most famous tobacco lands in this State or Virginia, and now the trade of the world has come to look with confidence to the light porous soils of the tidewater section, not only for its brightest, lemon-colored wrappers but for the best export tobacco produced in any country in the world.
It was not until something like fifteen years ago that the farmers of Eastern North Carolina went extensively into the culture of the weed. For instance in 1885 there were only forty-five acres in tobacco in the whole of Lenoir County. The acreage was gradually extended. Those who went into it made money. Others were induced to undertake its culture. Warehouses were built for its sale, and to-day many acres of old field lands that a few years ago were considered worthless, are yielding fine crops of bright tobacco, and near a billion pounds are annually sold on the Kinston market.
Situated as Kinston is, in the heart of the tobacco belt, it ought to be one of the foremost tobacco manufacturing centres (sic) of the South. Surrounded by a fertile and prosperous back-country that supplies annually an immense quantity of the leaf it is remarkable that a factory for manufacturing this product has never been established here. Since tobacco became a money crop in Eastern Carolina, warehouses and prizehouses have gone up in Kinston one after another. The American Tobacco Company of Great Britain and Ireland have built immense plants for the storage of their purchases and new banks and business houses have gone up almost as if by magic to accommodate the increased trade. But as yet Kinston has no tobacco factory to help insure the permanency of this important industry and the product of its tobacco fields continues to be shipped to other points to be manufactured.
It can readily be seen from the above conditions that a tobacco factory at this point would necessarily be a profitable investment. Kinston not only draws annually to its markets millions of pounds of tobacco, but it has every facility for handling the leaf, excellent transportation accommodations by competing railroad, unlimited financial backing, and the active interest of its citizens and the enthusiasm of the farming class to insure the success of such an enterprise once it is established.
Kinston is fortunate in the fact that its tobacco market has always been based on local enterprise and capital. Its tobacco interest, like all of the other enterprises of the town, has been built upon the co-operative plan. Hence it has steadily forged ahead. Prices have been maintained, acreage has increased and the tributary country extended, until the town has become one of the biggest and most prosperous tobacco markets in the whole country. The next step must be the establishment of a factory to convert this product into chewing and smoking tobacco right in the midst of the fields where it has grown. It stands to reason that it can be manufactured here more cheaply than at other points to which freight must be paid on the raw material. Kinston has, with its own enterprises and its own capital, built up a great tobacco market, why should it not, in the same way, build tobacco factories?
COTTON MANUFACTURING
Though there has not been in Eastern North Carolina as great development in cotton manufacturing as in some other parts of the State, such factories as have been established here are operated with success and profit. As this is the cotton producing section of the State it must necessarily come about, sooner or later, that the cotton mills must come this way, since competition is constantly crowding them nearer to the cotton fields.
In 1890 there were ninety-one cotton mills in North Carolina with a capital of about $10,750,000. Ten years later (1900) there were in the State 177 mills with a capital of $13,011,516. This number has now (1906) been increased to 287, with a capital stock of $37,494,625 - the mills more recently built being, as a rule, larger and more completely equipped than those built five or six years ago, and many of the old mills have been enlarged and greatly improved. The total number of spindles now in the State is near 2,500,000; number of looms, 45,700; knitting machines 4,000.
In 1900 when the census was taken there were 30,000 people employed in the cotton mills of the State, receiving more than $5,000,000 in wages. The cotton mills consumed annually about 4,000,000 bales of cotton valued at over $15,000,000. These figures have been largely increased within the last five years, the number of employees now being over 50,000 and more than half a million bales of cotton consumed each year.
Each $100 invested in the manufacture of cotton goods in the United States in 1900 yielded a product valued at a little over $72. In Massachusetts, the principal cotton manufacturing state of New England, $100 invested in cotton manufacturing yields less than $71, and in Rhode Island it yielded $64, while in North Carolina it yielded $86. That is to say, capital invested in cotton manufacturing in North Carolina affords a basis of profit 15 to 22 per cent greater than it does in New England. In other words, $100 invested in cotton milling in North Carolina is equivalent to $121 invested in a similar enterprise in Massachusetts, or $131 in Rhode Island. It must be borne in mind also that these figures bear only upon the relation of capital and product; they do not take into account cheapness of buildings, items of taxes and general expenses, or the earning power of a dollar invested in labor. When these things are considered, the figures above given become doubly significant.
Here for instance, is the record of a mill now in operation on the line of the Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad - and, by the way, there is no more up-to-date or splendidly equipped mill in the State and its products are second to none in the South. It began business a little over three years ago with a capital stock of $150,000. The mill, however, cost $300,000. It has paid from the day it started, declaring regularly a semi-annual dividend of 4 per cent, and now having, in addition, an undivided surplus of $100,000.
Comparisons are made above with Massachusetts and Rhode Island because Massachusetts is the great centre of the cotton manufacturing in new England, and in Rhode Island, the cotton milling business is nearly the same as in North Carolina, also for the reason that condition in Rhode Island are much the same as in Massachusetts.
The success of the cotton knitting mills at Goldsboro and at Kinston, to which extended reference is made else-where in this issue, proves beyond question that cotton and knitting factories will pay handsomely in this section. In fact, it is doubtful if so many advantages and desirable considerations for the business are to be found elsewhere.
The distance between the point of production of cotton and the place of its manufacture is steadily growing less. The inconvenience and cost of long haul of the raw material are each year cutting down the profits of factories located in sections remote from the cotton belt. When this difference in freight charges is considered, together with the other important economies offered for its manufacture in the South - such as mild climate, low taxes, cheap fuel, contented labor and abundant raw materials - it is readily seen that the cotton factory or knitting mill here has an immense advantage over its Northern competitor.
COMING TO THE COTTON FIELDS
The Piedmont section of the Carolina was the first to reflect the wisdom of the removal of cotton mills from New England in order to take advantage of the vastly superior opportunities afforded near the fields where the cotton is grown. Why should not the town in Eastern North Carolina along the line of the Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad - running as it does through the centre of a cotton-producing territory - be even more important and inviting to the cotton mill men? The inducements above referred to in favor of the South generally for the establishment of cot(ton) factories apply with double force to Kinston and Newbern and Goldsboro. At these thriving cities, outside capital is welcomed, local co-operation assured and factory sites are donated. These cities, in common with other point on the line of the Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad, have superior transportation facilities, and enjoy unequalled freight rates to all points on cotton factory products.
And while very properly inviting outside capital to come in and build mills, it might be well for our people to inquire if they could not very profitably do a little more of it on their own account. There are many considerations to recommend such a course. For instance, when the price of cotton was six cents per pound the cotton crop of North Carolina in the raw state was worth $15,000,000. Converted into osnaburgs and coarse sheetings its value was increased, but converted into duck at 14 cents per pound its value became $30,000,000, while in the manufacture of still finer good its value increased rapidly until made into embroidery at $20 per pound, the North Carolina crop would be worth $3,000,000,000. Of course, with the cotton at 10 cents the above comparison is less striking, and yet while this year's cotton crop is valued at $6,000,000,000 if manufactured here it could be increased to a value of at least a billion and half dollars. These figures open our eyes to the fact that the future development of cotton manufacturing in the South has a wide field before it - a field in which Eastern North Carolina has not yet got its share.
FERTILIZER FACTORIES
Another industry suited to the conditions and resources of Eastern North Carolina is the manufacture of fertilizers.
In the first place, the raw material for such enterprises is at hand or may be had at minimum cost of transportation. Then, by reason of the enormous demand for fertilizers by truckers and tobacco growers, the best of local markets is afforded. For the distribution of the product, the various railroads, logging roads and the net work of waterways, penetrating every nook and corner of a vast territory, supply the best of transportation facilities.
Fertilizer factories are in operation at Newbern and cotton seed oil mills at Goldsboro, Newbern and Kinston, but they fall short of meeting the demand for their product in this territory. So great are the advantages offered for other enterprises of this sort --notably at Morehead City and Beaufort, where the fish scrap is made and the acid, the blood, the phosphate rock can be brought in by the shipload - that the wonder is the field has not been occupied long ago in this respect.
The fertilizer factories at Newbern and the oil mills at Kinston and Goldsboro have been profitable enterprises almost from their start. Here is the record of one of them (a cotton seed oil mill): it was organized about twenty-five years ago, with a capital stock of $25,000. For the first two or three years very little money was made, owning to the fact that farmers were slow to sell their seed, being accustomed to put them in the ground for fertilizing purposes. Bur finally a supply of seed began to come in and the mill was on a paying basis. During the first twenty years of it existence it paid cash dividends averaging $100 per cent a year, and in addition piled up a surplus of $100,000. The mill was sold four years ago to the Southern Cotton Oil Company for $160,000.
There are other factories and mills along the line that have made well-nigh as good records, and with the extensions of the trucking industry and tobacco culture, and the growing of strawberries, peanuts and the like - the last two named new industries in this territory - the demand for fertilizers will be greatly increased.
The raising of strawberries is in its infancy in this territory, but as there is no longer any question as to the adaptability of the soil and climate to their culture, its success is a foregone conclusion.
The peanut industry has passed beyond the experimental stage and its rapid extension, especially in the Kinston section, is assured. The past season is the third year this crop has been raised in Lenoir County - the first two years in a limited way, last year more extensively. The yield all three seasons was fine - from 75 to 100 bushels per acre. In many cases the farmer planting them knew little or nothing of their culture, and yet splendid crops resulted.
One Negro tenant near Kinston, without previous experience as to the crop, harvested and threshed out over 800 bushels of peanuts from eleven acres of land. This is an average for the crop raised in this section, though the most intelligent farmers made a better showing. An experience peanut-raiser with good land can harvest an average of one hundred and twenty-five bushels per acre in this vicinity. Will it pay to raise peanuts on this basis? Let us take the Negro tenant, to whom reference is made above:
Cost of seed $15
Preparation of soil, including planting $44
Cost of cultivation $40
Cost of gathering $40
Cost of sacking $20
Cost of threshing $50
Cost of fertilizer $36.50
Total cost covering every expense $245.50
Value of crop (800) bushels at 60 cents per bushels $480. Net profit on crop $234.50, or a profit on eleven acres of $21.13 per acre.
This profit with experience in the business, could have been materially increased to $30, or more per acre, as some of the items above are excessive. It is said by experienced peanut men that a crop on this soil with proper attention ought to net $35 per acre profit.
A PEANUT FACTORY NEEDED
The next step for Kinston should be the establishment of a peanut factory. Few people realize the importance of the peanut industry in the commercial uplift of a town. There should be, and will be, if proper attention and encouragement are given to this new industry, shipments of thousands of bushels of nuts annually from this pint.
Some idea of the value of the peanut industry to a town is given by the Wilmington Star in a recent issue. Wilmington has five wholesale peanut dealers who ship annually 450,000 bushels representing a monetary value of something over a half million dollars. Concerning the business in that city, the Star says:
"To give an idea of the amount of business done in this line, during the past week the Wilmington Peanut Company shipped a solid car of 1,000 bushels, weighing 30,000 pounds and valued at $1,200, the consignment being to a larger jobber in Florida. The car was the sixth shipped by the enterprising firm named during the present season. The peanuts are the North Carolina variety, and are raised in the peanut belt surrounding Wilmington."
The soil about Kinston and at other places along the line of the Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad is as well adapted to the culture of peanuts as is that about Wilmington, and there is no reason why the industry should not be developed here to such an extent as to make it quite as valuable commercially to this city as it is to Wilmington. To do this, of course, the establishment of a peanut factory is necessary and proper encouragement must be given those engaged in the industry. 1906 Industrial Issue

Need Car insurance for 28 days? Easy.
How could short-term insurance benefit you? Imagine, if you will, a situation where a friend or family member from another town or city comes to stay with you for a few days. During their stay, this person has some commitments that need to be attended to. The only problem is that he or she did not travel by car. So what can be done? Well, thanks to temporary car insurance, this will not be an issue for very long at all. Short-term insurance will ensure that your friend or relative is able to borrow your car to complete whatever errands are necessary, and, most importantly, is able to do so safely and legally.
Okay, sounds good - how do I get it?
So, you understand that there are a great many possible scenarios where temporary car insurance could help you out, and that's fantastic. Your first port of call should be to contact your existing car insurance provider to see if they are able to offer you short-term cover as and when you need it. However, what you might find is that your insurer may not have specific plans in the increments that you require - for example, if you are lending your vehicle to a friend to move some boxes around - and as such you may have to seek out an insurance company that is geared specifically towards temporary cover to find the help that you need.
But why would this be better than my normal provider?
Well, as I mentioned in the previous paragraph, dedicated temporary cover insurers are in the market with the sole aim of providing comprehensive short-term cover to those that need it - people just like you. Say, for example, a friend needs to borrow your slightly larger car to move some boxes - just for one afternoon. Your normal insurance provider may not offer you a single day's insurance, so if you were to opt for them then you'd be spending more money than is necessary. Temporary insurance providers allow you to select exactly how long you require cover for, be it a full month, a week, or even a single day.
Wow, that sounds great! How do I find one of these companies?
In the age of modern technology that we currently live in, finding an insurance provider to suit your short-term cover needs could not be simpler. At any given moment, you are a brief internet search away from being connected to a website staffed by supportive, experienced, and well-trained professionals who are ready and waiting to answer any questions you may have and ultimately get you set up with the temporary plan to suit your needs - whatever they may be. And that really is all there is to it. So what are you waiting for?

Texans select "best corner back in the draft" during first round
by: Sasha Armstrong
Posted: May 1, 2015 / 05:53 PM CDT / Updated: May 1, 2015 / 05:53 PM CDT
HOUSTON, TX – The Texans just couldn't go without a Johnson on the roster. We might not have an Andre, but we do have a Kevin! No one really knew where the team's head was at during the first round of the 2015 draft but like so many times before, the Texans were thinking defense.
They selected Kevin Johnson from Wake Forest with their first pick (16th overall). Johnson is on the small side compared to a lot of NFL pros, he's six feet tall and weighs just under 190 pounds. With more than 10 other teams interested in him in the last few months, including the Patriots and Steelers, Houston may have lucked out, nabbing the best cover corner back in the draft.
Johnson met with media on Friday and had this to say about joining the Texans, "Just being a part of a great organization. It's been a lifelong dream to play in the NFL, but now I'm just trying to come in here and go to work and earn the respect from the players on the team as well as the coaches."
Texans head coach Bill O'Brien said this about his new defensive back, "Well I think probably the thing that I saw the most on tape was his versatility. That's the thing that I think Rick (Smith) and I talk about quite a bit is that every position, it's really important, on offense and defense, to have versatility. So here's a guy that is going to come in here and compete as an outside corner. We think that he can do some things on the inside of the coverage, special teams, as you can tell right here he's a humble young man that's a hard working guy, he's a competitive guy, he doesn't feel entitled, he feels like he's got to go out there and earn everything he's going to get. That's why he's here. So versatility, the type of person that he is, everybody that we've talked to, our scouting staff did a great job on Kevin (Johnson) and like we said last night, we're excited to have him on board."
He was a starter his entire time with Wake Forest and he's known to have some impressive footwork. As team veteran Jonathan Joseph enters the last year of his contract, many are thinking Johnson may be a natural shoe in to replace him.

Title : Comparison of the effects of ethidium bromide and of ethidium bromide-deoxyribonucleic acid complex in fibroblasts cultivated in vitro.
Abstract : [en] Chick embryo fibroblasts cultivated in vitro were treated with ethidium bromide (E.B.) or with DNA-E.B. complex (DNA-E.B.). E.B. (5 mug/ml) provokes morphological alterations and cell death, inhibits DNA synthesis and mitotic activity. DNA-E.B. (E.B. 5 mug/ml) is less toxic to the fibroblasts as far as cell structure, DNA synthesis and mitotic activity are concerned. DNA alone has no apparent effect on the fibroblasts. As shown by fluorescence microscopy, the lower toxicity of DNA-E.B. seems to be related to its mode of penetration into the cells.

I am trying to figure out which isolation level (among serializable and read committed )is better  in what scenarios..At link http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/server.101/b10743/consist.htm#i17894, I was going thru topic choice of isolation level, I got some clarity and some questions based on some statements in the article.
Satement :- Read committed isolation can provide considerably more concurrency with a somewhat increased risk of inconsistent results due to phantoms and non-repeatable reads for some transactions.
Question1:- How Read committed isolation provides more concurrency than serializable?As per myunderstanding serializable transactions also does not restrict concurrent transactions.
Statement:- All queries in an Oracle serializable transaction see the database as of a single point in time
Question:- I think what they mean here , when serializable transaction  begin say at time t1 then all the data will be presented from the state of Database which was at time t1.Right?
Not sure when we call the transaction actually begins. Is it when we get the connection or when first query is fired?
Statement:- Oracle's serializable isolation is suitable for environments where there is a relatively low chance that two concurrent transactions will modify the same rows and the long-running transactions are primarily read only
Question:- Say two transactions tran1 and tran2  begin at time t1. If tran1 updates the the row1 at time t2 and  later at time t3 tran2 fetches the same row will tran2  get the updated row done by tran1 ? (i think no because tran2 will fetch the state of data which was present at time t1.Right?)
Statement:- Coding serializable transactions requires extra work by the application developer to check for the "Cannot serialize access" error and to undo and retry the transaction.
Question:- Not sure when developer will get "Cannot serialize access" error.  Will we get the same error in below scenario
Say two transactions tran1 and tran2  begin at time t1. If tran1 updates the row1 at time t2 and  later at time t3 tran2  updates the same  row1. Will it throw the "Cannot serialize access" error in this case? If yes Does oracle maintain the version internally in case of serializable transactions so that it gets to know row has been updated by user?

A: If you want to see committed data, choose read committed. Each query could see different committed data.
If you want to see the same results for multiple queries, choose serializable. The same results will be returned until your transaction ends.
Both have limits. Choose the isolation level that is needed. Do not choose an isolation level that does more than you need.

Q: How to define the constructor for a class that extends Date? How can I correctly define the constructor for a child-class of Date (typescript 4.1.3)?
The constructor definition of the Date object is this:
new(): Date;
new(value: number | string): Date;
new(year: number, month: number, date?: number, hours?: number, minutes?: number, seconds?: number, ms?: number): Date;

in my code, I try to specify this:
class MyDate extends Date {
    // overloads copied from DateConstructor
    constructor();
    constructor(value: number | string);
    constructor(year: number, month: number, date?: number, hours?: number, minutes?: number, seconds?: number, ms?: number);
    // constructor impl
    constructor(
        yearOrValue?: number | string, month?: number, date?: number, hours?: number, minutes?: number, seconds?: number, ms?: number
    ) {
        super(yearOrValue, month, date, hours, minutes, seconds, ms);
        /*    ^^^^^^^^^^^
              Argument of type 'string | number | undefined' is not assignable to parameter of type 'number'.
              Type 'undefined' is not assignable to type 'number'.(2345)
         */
    }
}

but this causes a compile error in the super call:
Argument of type 'string | number | undefined' is not assignable to parameter of type 'number'.
Type 'undefined' is not assignable to type 'number'.(2345)

How can I define the constructor parameters, so that I can call super with all possibilities that the original Date object has and keep type-safety (as much as possible)?
Notes:

*

*Here is a link to the typescript playground example

*This is just some test-code, in the production version I have more code in the constructor

*I want a solution that works with a class (i.e. no messing with the prototype, etc.)

A: If you want to support all of the signatures that Date supports,¹ I don't think you have much choice other than branching (or punting):
class MyDate extends Date {
    // overloads copied from DateConstructor
    constructor();
    constructor(value: number | string);
    constructor(year: number, month: number, date?: number, hours?: number, minutes?: number, seconds?: number, ms?: number);
    // constructor impl
    constructor(
        yearOrValue?: number | string,
        month?: number,
        date?: number,
        hours?: number,
        minutes?: number,
        seconds?: number,
        ms?: number
    ) {
        if (typeof yearOrValue === "undefined") {
            super();
        } else if (typeof month === "undefined") {
            super(yearOrValue);
        } else {
            // consider an assertion here that `yearOrValue` is a number
            super(yearOrValue as number, month, date, hours, minutes, seconds, ms);
        }
    }
}

Playground link

¹ (For what it's worth, I don't think you have to, though you may well want to. Unlike Array or Promise, I don't think the Date constructor is called anywhere in the standard library)

A: You need to add some check and call the proper parent constructor for each situation:
constructor(
        yearOrValue?: number | string, month?: number, date?: number, hours?: number, minutes?: number, seconds?: number, ms?: number
    ) {
        if (yearOrValue === undefined) {
            super()
        } else if (month === undefined) {
            super(yearOrValue)
        } else if (typeof yearOrValue === 'number') {
            super(yearOrValue, month, date, hours, minutes, seconds, ms)
        }
    }

"It's also a reality check. Coming from Brno where everything went well, it just proves that there are still some weekends where you just can't find the key, no matter how hard you try, and its important not to crash on those weekends, learn as much as possible, try as much as possible, and try and gain as much information as you can.
"We never had the pace to chase the guys in front. I was really disappointed because we really never had any pace, even from the off we were struggling. The hard tyre worked and that's the frustrating thing.
"Both (Stefan) Bradl and (Alvaro) Bautista used the soft tyre but I couldn't follow or make it work. We did what we could. I don't feel like I left anything else out on that track.
"I knew where I was weak and made sure I got the best out of the bike without crashing because I'd have been kicking myself if I did. I'm still the same rider I was last weekend, but last weekend it worked and this weekend it didn't, and I don't really know why.

Are my existing Illumina sequencing libraries compatible with the HiSeq?
Yes. Single read and paired end libraries for RNA and DNA applications are compatible with the HiSeq.
What types of SBS kits are available for the HiSeq?
Illumina currently offers two SBS kits for the HiSeq 2000 or HiSeq 1000 System: a 200-cycle kit and a 50-cycle kit. Both kits contain the same formulations and differ in volume only.
Will I have enough reagents in my 200-Cycle SBS Kit to perform a 2x100 cycle run with indexing?
Yes. The TruSeq SBS Kit (200 Cycles) contains sufficient reagents for 209 cycles of sequencing, which covers 101 cycles for Read 1, 7 cycles for the Index Read, and 101 cycles for Read 2.
Can I use the same reagents on the HiSeq that I use on my Genome Analyzer?
No. Cluster Kits and SBS Kits for the HiSeq are not equivalent or compatible with the Genome Analyzer. Likewise, Cluster Kits and SBS Kits for the Genome Analyzer are not equivalent or compatible with the HiSeq.
What is the optimal cluster density on the HiSeq 2000 or HiSeq 1000 System?
The recommended maximum cluster density is 750,000–850,000 clusters/mm² when using TruSeq v3 clustering and sequencing reagents.
How many flow cells can I run on a HiSeq System?
The HiSeq 2000 is a dual flow cell system, which allows you to run two flow cells simultaneously. The HiSeq 1000 is a single flow cell system.
What are the expected wash volumes following a HiSeq maintenance wash?
What is a PhiX spike-in?
A PhiX spike-in employs a small amount of PhiX control library in the same lane as an experimental library. The spike-in allows real-time quality metrics as the PhiX is analyzed during the run.
A PhiX spike-in is not recommended for sequencing a genome with high similarity to the PhiX genome. It does not allow for normalization of data in that lane as per a control lane.
Is initial cycle indexing possible on the HiSeq?
No, the system does not support an initial cycle indexing method. To ensure the highest quality data, Illumina recommends and supports a separate indexing read for multiplexed samples.
Can I monitor my HiSeq run remotely?
Illumina provides Sequencing Analysis Viewer (SAV) software that can be run on a Windows PC to remotely monitor your run. The software does not allow any control over the run and requires that the PC is connected to the analysis server over the network.
Can I customize a HiSeq recipe?
With HCS v1.3 and later, you can customize a recipe to contain any number of reads. Reads can be indexed or non-indexed. However, Illumina does not guarantee the performance of custom recipes. Contact Illumina Technical Support if you need assistance creating custom recipes.
What programs can I install on a HiSeq control computer?
The instrument control computer is a computational engine performing real-time analysis of data. To avoid loss of data and other adverse effects, do not install any additional software except anti-virus software.
What operating system is used on the instrument computer?
The HiSeq control computer employs 64-bit Windows Vista.
What are the network requirements for data transfer from the HiSeq to a server?
You need a one gigabit connection per instrument between the instrument computer and the server. For more information, see the HiSeq System Site Prep Guide.
