As a TXT file, it gets:

It is in the format of

Code:

If there are multiple Num column, then it is in the format

Code:
Server;Country;
Num1
Num2;Data1ofNum1
Data1ofNum2;Data2ofNum1
Data2ofNum2;Data3ofNum1
Data3ofNum2

Now I need to write a uniq script where the user needs to find a server which has routing and Data2 lets say:

FOR EG of entered data: BRUS Data2

I want to see if data 2 + BRUS is available on a server, it should return London-47, London-48

but the problem is that the txt file grabs data per column and not by row.

If this question is not so clear please inform me.

Spring fling: Sun emits a mid-level flare

Leave a comment

UPDATE: The M6.5 flare on the morning of April 11, 2013, was also associated with an Earth-directed coronal mass ejection (CME), another solar phenomenon that can send billions of tons of solar particles into space and can reach Earth one to three days later. CMEs can affect electronic systems in satellites and on the ground. Experimental NASA research models show that the CME began at 3:36 a.m. EDT on April 11, leaving the sun at over 600 miles per second.

‘Lights Over Lapland’ VIDEO Captures Comet Pan-STARRS & Northern Lights

Leave a comment

Published: 03/27/2013 12:05 PM EDT on SPACE.com

The northern lights and a bright comet dance together over the Scandinavian Arctic in a stunning new video.

Astrophotographer Chad Blakley captured the footage of Comet Pan-STARRS blazing amid dazzling green auroras on March 20, during a trip to Abisko National Park in northern Sweden.

“The auroras began as soon as the sun went down and continued to dance all night long,” Blakley told SPACE.com via email in a description of the comet and aurora video. “To say that we had an incredible night would be a huge understatement!”

Comet Pan-STARRS burns just above the horizon in the 80-second video, while the shifting green flames of Sweden‘s northern lights flicker above and around the icy wanderer. [See photos of Comet Pan-STARRS and the Northern Lights]

Blakely is not the only stargazer to catch a dazzling view of Comet Pan-STARRS and the northern lights. Astrophotographer Tommy Eliassen also captured the view from Norway when he photographed the comet on March 19. 

Eliassen’s photo shows the comet hovering over snow-covered mountains as the northern lights glow like a bright ribbon of green light. Eliassen said he captured the sight from Meløy, Nordland, in Norway.

The comet, which is officially known as C/2011 L4 (PANSTARRS), was discovered in June 2011 by astronomers using the Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System telescope in Hawaii (hence the name). Researchers think this is Pan-STARRS’ first trip to the inner solar system from the distant, icy Oort Cloud.

Comet Pan-STARRS has been putting on a show in the Northern Hemisphere for much of March, shining just above the western horizon with naked-eye visibility. The comet made its closest approach to the sun on March 10 and is dimming now, but it’s still visible low in the western sky around sunset.

The comet is expected to have dimmed to the point that it is only visible through binoculars or small telescopes by the end of March.

The auroras — also known as the northern lights and southern lights — result when charged particles from the sun collide with molecules high in Earth’s atmosphere, generating a glow. They’re usually restricted to high latitudes because our planet’s magnetic field lines tend to funnel these particles toward the poles.

But powerful solar eruptions known as coronal mass ejections can supercharge the auroras, increasing their intensity and occasionally bringing them into view for people in more temperate climes. After a big CME in 1909, for example, auroras were visible in Singapore, which lies just north of the equator.

InSite Vision Announces Positive Phase 3 Results for BromSite ™ (ISV-303) for the Reduction of Inflammation and Pain after Cataract Surgery

BromSite Demonstrates Statistical Significance Over Vehicle

ALAMEDA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– InSite Vision Incorporated (OTCBB:INSV) today announced top-line results from its recently completed Phase 3 clinical trial of BromSite™ (ISV-303) for the reduction of inflammation and pain after cataract surgery. BromSite achieved statistically significant superiority compared to vehicle in alleviating ocular pain and inflammation among patients following cataract surgery. BromSite combines a low dose (0.075%) of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) bromfenac with InSite Vision’s DuraSite® drug delivery technology.

“The results of our Phase 3 clinical study verify the efficacy of BromSite in providing relief of pain and inflammation after cataract surgery at a lower drug concentration than the current market leader and reinforce our earlier clinical findings,” said Kamran Hosseini, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer of InSite Vision. “We plan to rapidly initiate the second Phase 3 trial of BromSite in order to be prepared to file for regulatory approvals in both the United States and Europe as soon as possible after the completion of that trial.”

The BromSite Phase 3 clinical trial enrolled 268 patients undergoing cataract surgery in a two-arm trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BromSite against the DuraSite vehicle alone. Patients were randomized and then dosed twice-a-day beginning the day before surgery and continuing the day of surgery and for 14 days post-surgery. The primary study endpoint was the reduction of inflammation after surgery and BromSite achieved statistically significant superiority compared to vehicle (p<0.001). A secondary endpoint was reduction in pain and BromSite achieved statistically significant superiority compared to vehicle (p<0.001). BromSite was well tolerated, with no safety concerns or drug-related serious adverse events reported. Pharm-Olam International served as the contract research organization managing the BromSite study on behalf of InSite Vision.

Cataract surgery is the most frequently performed ocular surgery in the United States, with more than three million procedures annually. Typically, anti-inflammatory eye drops are prescribed to reduce pain and inflammation both before and after surgery. Anti-inflammatory eye drops are also administered as prophylaxis against cystoid macular edema, or CME. CME is a relatively rare, but extremely serious, adverse event that can result from ocular surgery and lead to blindness. Many physicians believe that a higher penetration of bromfenac into the ocular tissues may reduce the risk of CME. In a Phase 2 clinical study evaluating pharmacokinetics, BromSite achieved more than twice the eye tissue penetration of Bromday™ (bromfenac …read more

Solar storm near Earth caused by fast CME

Leave a comment

On March 17, 2013, at 1:28 a.m. EDT, the coronal mass ejection (CME) from March 15 passed by NASA’s Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) as it approached Earth. Upon interacting with the giant magnetic bubble surrounding Earth, the magnetosphere, the CME caused a kind of solar storm known as a geomagnetic storm. The storm initially caused a mild storm rated on NOAA‘s geomagnetic storm scales as a G2 on a scale from G1 to G5, and subsequently subsided to a G1. In the past, storms of this strength have caused auroras near the poles but have not disrupted electrical systems on Earth or interfered with GPS or satellite-based communications systems. …read more

Earth-directed coronal mass ejection from the sun

Leave a comment

(Phys.org) —On March 15, 2013, at 2:54 a.m. EDT, the sun erupted with an Earth-directed coronal mass ejection (CME), a solar phenomenon that can send billions of tons of solar particles into space and can reach Earth one to three days later and affect electronic systems in satellites and on the ground. Experimental NASA research models, based on observations from the Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) and ESA/NASA’s Solar and Heliospheric Observatory, show that the CME left the sun at speeds of around 900 miles per second, which is a fairly fast speed for CMEs. Historically, CMEs at this speed have caused mild to moderate effects at Earth. …read more

Sun spits out two CMEs

Leave a comment

The sun recently erupted with two coronal mass ejections (CMEs). One began at 8:36 p.m. EDT on March 12, 2013 and is directed toward three NASA spacecraft, Spitzer, Kepler and Epoxi. There is, however, no particle radiation associated with this event, which is what would normally concern operators of interplanetary spacecraft since the particles can trip computer electronics on board. A second CME began at 6:54 a.m. EDT on March 13, 2013 and its flank may pass by Earth at a speed that does not typically have a significant impact at Earth. …read more

Solar Dynamics Observatory provides first sightings of how CME forms

Leave a comment

(Phys.org)—On July 18, 2012, a fairly small explosion of light burst off the lower right limb of the sun. Such flares often come with an associated eruption of solar material, known as a coronal mass ejection or CME – but this one did not. Something interesting did happen, however. Magnetic field lines in this area of the sun’s atmosphere, the corona, began to twist and kink, generating the hottest solar material – a charged gas called plasma – to trace out the newly-formed slinky shape. The plasma glowed brightly in extreme ultraviolet images from the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) aboard NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) and scientists were able to watch for the first time the very formation of something they had long theorized was at the heart of many eruptive events on the sun: a flux rope.
