I would do exactly what you outlined (137 comments)
A place I worked for did exactly that. There are a few details that you should attend to - give out ip addresses based on the ssl certificate used by the openvpn client (and make sure you don't deploy the same ssl cert to two servers!), and have a method of restarting openvpn every time it crashes/disconnects (and exits). You'd be surprised how flaky enterprise internet connections can be. From there my work kept a database of all the openvpn servers and used it to generate a nagios config. Honestly, I've never loved nagios since it frequently doesn't QUITE do what I want, but it's good enough. If your clients are all internet accessable, I've been using a slightly expensive commercial service call Monitis which I really like. Contrary to what a number of people here have said, I don't think you need a network admin at all, if you can get the vpn stuff working with a simple acl (to keep clients' interns from bothering each other) then you should be set.
My Dad did that (419 comments)
My dad did that, but for fairly different reasons. His friends convinced him that their area of Yugoslavia was pretty unimpacted by fighting, so we visited. It was honestly one of the more interesting vacations I've taken; the entire country was completely economically devistated. Fortunately I don't think any of the involved governments (we're American) ever found out about that somewhat irresponsible vacation.

Mac Mail, iMail, something like that...
Re:DH, FTW (178 comments)
Their service is pretty inconsistant. I think most of their customers get frustrated when they're initially filling the server - they don't do a lot of administrative oversight into what goes onto their servers, and it really shows in the first 3-4 months you are a customer of theirs. The reason they come up however, is they offer all of the stated services except VOIP. And I wouldn't use their VPN, though they offer VPN services. You can always use SSH Tunnels. I think there's a real logistics problem in offering that wide a variety of services, which is why most hosting companies won't do so. The original poster may have 5 providers, but each of those providers only has to stock admins to deal with 2-3 of the requested services.
iMail has a history of infinate recursion (158 comments)
This isn't the first infinate recursion iMail bug. Around five years ago I worked for a webhost at which we had customers complaining about there being nothing in their INBOX. When we checked, we'd find a giant tree of INBOX folders - for some reason iMail would create a new subirectory called INBOX every time it logged in, and then make the *new* INBOX folder the default INBOX. All the mail would still be delivered to the original inbox...

... but sometimes there are commercial solutions that fit a specific problem quite well - I'd use deep-freeze, a piece of windows software. I briefly attended a school that had it on their computer lab computers - effectively the computer is reset every time you restart it. It keeps a second partition sitting around with your save point or something like that. Guests are generally non-malicious so probably won't disable the software.

Suggestions for subtly incorrect items (102 comments)
I find it really funny that Amazon is patenting their suggestion system since it's responsable for nearly every mis-purchased item I buy from Amazon. I wind up with GSM phones intead of CDMA (but in a better color), asus keyboards for a laptop I don't own, and a wireless access point instead of a wireless range extender! They should try to think of/patent a system for suggesting items that have the same important attributes and basic utility. It wouldn't kill Amazon to patent something that's not blaitantly obvious.
find the culprit first (884 comments)
Wander around with netstumbler, and monitor the strength of the evil network. Once you've actually located the person you can: a) complain to their mom b) move your access point to where it's out of their range c) setup a malicious network of the same name with and perform MITM attacks on them (sslstrip, sslsplit, dsniff, malicious nameserver, redirect them to a copy of someone elses drive-by-0day page) If they run the deauth attack more than once (it only has to be run once), they're fairly unlikely to succeed unless given serious help (like changing the network encryption to wep).
Re:Not actually necessary (183 comments)
After a moments retrospect, see if your son can take a humanities course over the summer that will transfer to the new school
Not actually necessary (183 comments)
In my educational career (which involved a lot of wandering between schools), I found that *every single school* forces you to re-take cs101, even if you already know the language, even if you've already (literally) take 4 other cs101 courses. So your son should be aware that taking a programming course won't get him into higher level courses. Of course, programming is a whole lot of fun, so if he wants to take a course for it's entertainment value, he should go for it. Check your local community college - I've had great luck with community college courses (though I've never tried programming courses at one, more like networking and IT courses). Don't even think about a vocational school. If possible, try to find one that teaches C/C++, since most computer science courses in college are in Java, which isn't that useful of a language. Avoid C# courses, since C# teaches poor programming habits. Lastly, and slightly off topic, if your son wants to avoid a college career of nomadically wandering between schools, then make sure he realizes that the main objective of school is to learn things, including things that aren't as much fun to learn (like African History or Music Theory).
DC Experiences (504 comments)
I work in a datacenter with large numbers of un-raided servers. Generally when someone wants to fix a drive, they just want their data off. Corrupted Filesystems due to Physical Problems: Corrupted filesystems are frequently due to bad blocks in the filesystem metadata. The fs metadata tends to go first because its the most read part of the disk. I've had really good luck with ddrescue for this sort of error (at least for ext3). Have ddrescue skip error blocks and keep a log of bad blocks, otherwise it'll literally take a week to recover. (Instructions: http://www.forensicswiki.org/wiki/Ddrescue) Fried Drive Controllers: These will generally completely fail to turn on or read at all. They're usually not detected as disks. Replacing the PCB would probably work if I were any good at hacking type soldering. If you're tempted to try sticking a drive in the freezer, just let it sit for 1-4 months instead. I believe it's effectively the same fix but with far lower of a chance of borking the electronics due to mosture. Believe it or not a fair number of drives will come back to live after this period of time (~15-20% I would *guess*). Mainly you should just be aware of the warning signs. Disappearing files, folders that cause crashes, ext3 related stack traces, and filesystems being auto-remounted as read-only are all signs that its about time the evacuate to a new disk within a day, two at the max. Bad ball bearings generally don't kill hard drives. Disks making weird unlubricated drive bearing/shaft sounds can still work for a year or so. If this disk seems to shutter or obviously has problems starting to spin you should definetely copy your data to a new disk, anything less will mainly just injure people's hearing. The main problem with bad bearing is that it *really* increases the amount of heat in the computer (which in turn can kill hard drives).

Bringing up the rear with no golf experience whatsoever was… ahem… us. In what we've now learned is a common rookie mistake, we worried too much about the power of our swing and didn't concentrate enough on direction and smooth follow-through. Because our hands were angling slightly to the right at the end of their arc, most of our shots were slicing to the right and away from their intended targets.
Luckily, Super Swing Golf is a lot simpler to learn than real golf. Although it takes stuff like wind, weather and ground slope into consideration, it's still not asking you to hit an actual ball. Therefore, through quiet and calculating study of our PSM opponents, we were eventually able to mimic their approach and score some perfect shots for ourselves. But the sweetest revenge? That would be turning in a bunch of PlayStation editors for playing Nintendo games on company time. Back to Genji, fellas!

Heres a recipe I just came up with (first attempt ever on making my own)... not sure on how the outcome will be. Just wanted peoples thoughts on this. I pretty much did this in 10-15 min also learning the program "Beer Smith" at the same time. Wont be brewing this or similar for a while due to needing cooler temps.Brew Sheet on my website.

Age beer for 14.0 days at 75.0 F 12/23/2007 - Drink and enjoy!
Anyone have any thoughts on how this might turn out?
I don't recall seeing a 5 gal belgian strong dark ale recipe use 5 pounds of sugar, even in any belgian. Also, I'm curious about the ginger - belgians can leave room for experimentation but I personally wouldn't add ginger to this style and I don't think it needs it. That yeast will generate many interesting flavors w/o the ginger. My .02
Im just fiddling with ways on upping the OG so I can work on getting a nice strong beer. Ive seen some with the use of many different spices in a book i read.
You can always add more spices in the secondary, but its hard to take away. I'm not sure about how else to get the OG up other than more extract, but then you have the problem of a potentially high Fg b/c of the unfermentables in the extract. I do AG, so I can't really say how much is too much for this style. For this style, if I am going to add any spices, I use corriander. So if you're just wanting some more spiciness I'd go with that instead of ginger, but if you want ginger go for it.
well I bumped both dry extracts to 3lbs each which is an easy buy being they come in 3lb packages. And dropped the candy down to 2 lbs. The OG rose a little bit to 1.075, the IBU is 27.8 so its will be possibly a tad sweeter, and I have adding coriander instead of ginger. I'm thinking of swapping to an Abbey yeast being as what I see similar but I like the Trappist for its fruitier flavors in the higher temps. But being that this will be produced later in the year the temps might be down low enough for a constant high 60's for the abbey. Also most places that I've looked don't have the Trappist in stock. The main thing I am unsure about is the hops.... I know these hops are used in the beers I'm just not sure of the proportions and timings are right.
Ok, first off, why 2 hours?? You're boiling 3 gallons for 2 hours, you'll have around 1 gallon left. Second, leave out the ginger, and leave out the malto-dextrine. Leave out the corn sugar even and up the extract. The Style is suppose to be somewhat dry but i've used more Extract than that and still gotten a dry beer. As for the candi sugar it can be used as up to 20% of the fermentables. Take off the Dry Hops, the style is suppose to be malty smelling. The IBU range is 15-25 depending on strength. Unless your OG is over 1.090 i would suggest 20 IBU's. Cutting your boil time down to 60 would be best and cut out that 120 min addition. There's not suppose to be Hop flavor or aroma, so your hops need to be at 60 and 45ish. 30 imparts flavor and 10 imparts aroma.
I would agree with the comments so far..especially reducing boil length to 60 mins & chucking the ginger, malto dextrine & big aroma additions.
Ive seen a lot of these with 2 hour boils. Sadly also most of the recipes I have on this are all grains so I'm trying to piece together an extract version. With Beersmith there are 2 Belgian Strong Dark Ales profiles.... the one had selected had an IBU of 25-45. updated list Type: Extract Batch Size: 5.50 gal Boil Size: 3.00 gal Boil Time: 60 min Ingredients Amount Item 4 lbs Amber Dry Extract (12.5 SRM) 4 lbs Extra Light Dry Extract (3.0 SRM) 3 lbs 5.3 oz Pale Liquid Extract (8.0 SRM) 1 lbs Caramel/Crystal Malt - 10L (10.0 SRM) 4.0 oz Chocolate Malt (350.0 SRM) 1.00 oz Hallertauer [4.80 %] (45 min) 1.00 oz Northern Brewer [8.50 %] (45 min) 1.00 oz Hallertauer [4.80 %] (30 min) 1.00 oz Northern Brewer [8.50 %] (30 min) 1.00 oz Tettnang [4.50 %] (30 min) 1.00 tsp Irish Moss (Boil 10.0 min) 2 lbs Candi Sugar, Clear (0.5 SRM) 5.50 gal Atlanta, GA 1 Pkgs Trappist Ale (White Labs #WLP500) [Starter 35 ml] Beer Profile Est Original Gravity: 1.100 SG Est Final Gravity: 1.023 SG Estimated Alcohol by Vol: 10.09 % Bitterness: 22.9 IBU Est Color: 16.8 SRM Which yeast would you recommend to use for this? I'm looking at white labs 500, 510, and 530?
Here is something for you to ponder. The extract has been boiled down to a syrup, so the danger of dms is almost none existant. So you are boiling for an hour to sterilize the wort and isomerize the hops any more than that and you are just wasting water, unless you are running long hop additions like a 90 min IPA. As far as alcohol goes, you are going to have a HUGE beer here. My trippel only goes up to 1079 OG and finishs out at 1020ish. And it runs about 9% abv. I also hop a bit more than you are. I average an BU:GU of about .35. and it tends to be a bit malty but good. You are looking at a BU:GU of about .23. BU:GU is a balancing system Ray Daniels came up with to help balance beer. BU= Bittering units and GU=Gravity units. It seems to work pretty good. If you have any questions lemme know I think if you either bring up your IBU's or bring down the OG I think you will be really happy with the beer. Remember Belgians are more about balance then pushing the envelope. Yeah they brew big alcoholic beer but it isn't meant to blow the top of your head off. It is all about balance. My $.02 John

Vikings' Cook hopes to win back team's trust
Minnesota Vikings cornerback Chis Cook says his next move after a jury acquitted him of charges that he assaulted his girlfriend is to get ready for next season.
Cook told reporters Thursday that he's ''got a job to do.'' He noted he missed 10 games last season.
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said Cook likely will not face discipline under the league's personal conduct policy.
Cook bowed his head deeply over the table when he heard the verdict. Outside court he said he had been on ''an emotional roller coaster'' and was relieved to be acquitted.
The prosecutor told jurors Cook tried to strangle Chantel Baker in October. The defense maintained Cook was simply defending himself.
Baker recanted statements she had made to police alleging that Cook tried to choke her.

Clicking on stuff felt a little bit sticky or delayed.
Hmm, strange. I'm not sure why that would happen. I think we need to make it more clear when dialogue is happening (which prevents you from being able to click anything while it takes place), because it could be causing confusion as to when you can click hotspots and when you're supposed to wait.
awesome game, love the flow of all your games really.
absolutely fun and perfect as always, I'm glad to see a new character who is also fluffy and so cute! I hope you make a second part of this, I enjoyed the journeys of reemus, a small favor and the visitor so I'd totally love this to be longer :D
Sweet hearing that fans of Visitor are enjoying cutesy too, we weren't sure you would. :)
We have a much longer story written for Wentworth that we'd like to explore at some point in the future.
Very fun game. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys a good point n click game.

Charles Hamilton - All Alone
Artist: Charles Hamilton
Producer: Woody
Album: My Heart
Avg Rating: 3.7 ( 19 votes )
Charles Hamilton is many things, but he is never boring. About a week or so after the-boy-who-called-everything revealed he had cancer, Hamilton drops the (seemingly) appropriately titled single, All Alone. But if you were expecting an introspective, dark track from the versatile artist, expect to have your expectations shattered. The electro-synth production, courtesy of frequent collaborator Woody, gives the song a shiny, uptempo boost that's a direct juxtaposition to the somber tone the title first implies. And while Charles' lyrics are relatively melancholy, he delivers them in a sing-song, the upbeat instrumental and a rousing chorus on the back end keep the song at a cynical medium. The overall effect is somewhat like Eminem's My Name Is, but Hamilton is no Shady, and Woody is no Dre, so as far as I'm concerned, All Alone is only somewhat intriguing. If the latest offering from one of hip-hop's most enigmatic emcees grabs your interest, be sure to look out for his upcoming LP, My Heart, set to drop in 2011.

I want to love it but I just can't find any reason to repurchase. It's too runny to work with. Soaks easy into any brush or sponge so I feel it's wasting product. Leaves a velvety finish but within 2 hours it has almost disappeared around the nose and chin! I don't think it perfects the skin at all. Gives a real "I've got foundation on" skin look. Actually has put me off the brand all together unfortunately! Boo! Waste of money!

This would be awesome for me if it were a shade lighter. I dont know why I dont see more buzz on this foundation in the beauty community. Remarkably good coverage for such a light weight formula. Very pigminted, while feeling almost weightless. Someone described this as "stretching" across the skin to cover scars and imperfections, while I have no scaring, I do agree, the texture seems to stretch across the skin minimizing and blurring problem areas. I apply this with the Shiseido Perfecting Foundation Brush, and the brush is spectacular as well. This foundation has a beautiful semi-matte finish, and imparts a subtle glow, while still looking very fresh and natural. The wear time is pretty good, around 6-8 hours as long as your skin isnt hyper oily. Really the only complaint I have with this foundation are the color choices. They all seem to run on the yellow side, even the I (netural) tones. Dont even try to choose a shade based on the names..they are all a variation on "ivory," yet none of them are ivory. The only one that comes close to an ivory color is the I00, and it's a tad yellower than most of the ivories I have seen. I am usually the lightest shade in most foundations, sometimes the second to the lightest if the range is extensive, and I can only barely pull off the I00 shade, and in fact, I could not wear this out in full sun light, its ever so slightly too dark, not even a full shade darker, but enough that you can see its not a perfect match in full sun. The packaging is also really nice. Very travel friendly, glossy black plastic, and compact. Dont let the size fool you, though quite small, it still holds 1fl oz, the same amount as most foundations. For my needs and wants, this is a pretty nice foundation. Wish it came in more shades and more varied tones, I think this foundation would be outstanding if more women could use it. I really love this stuff, and recommend it highly, just be sure to get a good color match before purchasing!

I have to say that I was sucked into the packaging a little bit with the minimalist bottle. It really is a small bottle compared to other foundation bottles, but it holds the standard 1 oz of foundation. The coverage is medium-full with very little needed to achieve it. Because of this the foundation has to be applied and pushed/sheered out since you only need a few drops at most for your entire face.
My skin is about NC25 right now with neutral to yellow undertones and I have combination skin with normal to oily T-zone and slightly dry cheeks. The 'O' range is way too yellow/orange so I tried the 'I' range that leans more neutral/yellow. I tried first the color I40 which seemed like a good fit but was in the end too dark, so I switched over to the I20. The I20 is a good fit, although, the perfect fit would be a bottle of I20 with a few drops of I40 mixed in. I have to say that the foundation does oxidize, and what initially looked neutral/yellow became a lot more pink looking on the skin.
Someone on the board said that this is a lot like Nars Sheer Glow but a little more drying and I agree. This creates a perfect semi-matte sorta glowy base, but has a tendency to cling onto dry flakes like the Nars Sheer Glow did on me. Because of the semi-matte finish, after it dries down, it looks powdery and dry on my skin. No, I don't think that it works well for my skin at all and makes it look obvious that I'm wearing foundation. Despite that, I can see this working for many normal to oil skins especially in the summer time if you don't have a problem with skin texture.

The sample I received was a bit too dark for me (even though the shade name "I40 Natural Fair Ivory" might imply a really light shade...that was a bit misleading for me), but I used it anyway. The finish was really mattified, but I didn´t like the look on the skin too much. It did provide coverage, but even when I applied it sparingly, I found it looked a bit cakey.
At first, it is a wearable product that provides a smooth, powdery finish upon application. But it doesn't last long, especially in tropical weathers. It's very soft, it should work fine in colder climates. Wont recommend to anyone in tropical countries.

I have been using this foundation for a year and it is a HG item.
As others have said, you do have to work quickly and in smaller areas as it does set fast. I put a small amount on the back of my hand and use my Shiseido Foundation brush and stipple it over my face. Excellent coverage with great pigmentation. I have not had any transferring issues, this stuff stays put. I do use Cle de Peau concealer on the few spots the foundation can't hide.
I am getting dry skin as I get older, as long as I moisturize well before applying and a touch up much later in the day, this foundation lasts a good 6-8 hours.
I will be using this foundation for years to come.

Skintone: NC35
Color in this product: Ochre 40
This foundation is great for everyday use. Overall it has light-medium coverage but somehow it manages to cover scars really well. I have very oily skin and this is the only dewy finish foundation that I like. The wear is not very long lasting - 6-8 hours and redness peeks through - but the other benefits outweigh this one minor con.
About the shade. It's hard for me to find a color that fits my skintone because my skin is medium with warm tones. I use Ochre 40 which looks so light out of the bottle, but once blended the color blends into my skin pretty well!
This can be difficult to apply if you have the wrong tool. It dries really quickly and can look patchy if you don't blend fast enough. I use a stippling brush and apply with my fingers to one area, blend with the brush and continue allover, doubling up wherever i need it.
I love this for the winter but this will probably be too dewy for me in the summer. I've found that as winter fades I like to mix this foundation with my Revlon PhotoReady foundation. The textures mix really well and don't separate on me throughout the day.

I have been using this foundation for over a month and I am loving it so far!I have combo/oily/acne prone (more on the oily side) skin. I find the finish to be "your skin but better" and the consistency is very liquidy but dries (very quickly) to a semi-matte finish. (I suggest doing one one section of your face at a time because it does dry that quickly.)
The coverage is medium in my opinion. I use the shade I40 and find it to be a perfect match. I love the packaging as well. Very light weight and since it's a plastic bottle it's very travel friendly. I do tend to get shiny within a few hours with any liquid foundation so I have to set this with a light layer of my Sheer Mattifying compact in I40, mostly just on my T-zone.
Coverage lasts all day, but I do have to touch up with a powder halfway through the day (that's just my skin though...if you're a more normal skin type, you may not have to).
So far I can report there have been no breakouts due to this product! yay!!! I will update with any changes but so far I am loving this and have had people compliment me with a "hey..your skin looks nice today!" so it must be good right?! hehe

I really like this foundation. The bottle is very small (still 30ml) great for travelling or fitting in a makeup bag. The coverage it gives is flawless and natural. You have to work fast with this product because it tends to dry very fast. If your skin is very dry you may want to stay away from this product or use a primer before application.

One of my favourite! I like the pigmentation. It covers very well, but as it is liquid, then you dont get this heavy feeling and you really just need a little amount of the product.
It may get a bit shiny during the day, so you need some powder. Other than that, it has this mild illuminating effect, and makes my skin look very healthy and smooth.
The packaging is simple, but very convenient - no heavy bottles to bring along with you. I travel a lot, so this is very important that my make-up stuff wouldnt weigh too much, or take too much room. Best packaging that i have seen for a foundation.
So only negative side for me is the need for powder touch-up during the day.

"In the first sketch, the year is 5 A.D. and Benigni has to baby-sit for his old girlfriend Mary so she and her husband Joseph can have a night out. As Benigni is giving their child Jesus a bath, he muses philosophically about the nature of God and without a word, the little boy stands up on the bath water and leaves the outlines of his face on the bath towel. In the next segment, Benigni is in a quandary because his guardian angel, disillusioned with their relationship, has fallen in love with God and left him. In the third vignette, Benigni faces all-powerful banking bureaucrats in a bid for a loan to buy a house -- not an easy task because he is bully-proof, which alienates the chief fiscal bully, and the consequences are anything but a friendly loan. In the last sketch, Benigni is a guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and his antics (like talking into his sword on phone calls) drive his fellow guard to distraction."--All Movie Guide.

Almost 2 years later after being in my hot garage for 3 hot summers, my Amana afc1005bw chest freezer crapped out. It has power and the lights come on, but no compressor sound and no cooling. Bummer. I need to brew my Oktoberfest Ale this weekend and it 100 degrees outside again.
Cheers, EdWortHaus Pale Ale, Bavarian Hefeweizen, Robust Porter, Oktoberfest Ale, Wounded Knee IPA, Rye IPA, BCB IPA, Kolsch, Apfelwein
Ugh man I totally know how this feels! Last weekend my orange fridge (look at my gallery) went out on me...right after I pitched my yeast on my Kona pale ale...Luckily I found a good deal on Craigslist the next day
That's a bummer Ed. Guess you'll have to replace it with something bigger, more robust....commerical-grade! At least you can still use it as a warming chamber with your light-bulb setup.
You won't get a much better insulated fermentation chamber, so if you are even temporeraly back to the ice bath method it should be uber efficent...
I'm going to check on replacing the starter relay and see what happens. In the mean time, I have a freezer in storage that will be coming out tonight to take its place for my Oktoberfest Ale.
Wack that relay and the compressor body with a screw driver handle. Temporary fix.
Well, I've moved forward on using the defuct freezer as a giant cooler for this weekend's brewfest. I'd like to have 6 or 7 KEGLoves, but don't have enough for all the beers. My experience with the Zealots picnic with the high temps and all that beer line exposed to the sun and heat just doesn't sound good to me, so I added a 2x10 collar to my freezer. It was pretty simple to build. I used one 12' long 2"x10" from Lowe's and had them cut it to my specs. I glued it with Liquid Nails, then clamped it and put 3 2.5" deck screws into each corner. It's very solid without any brackets. We're going to have 6 beers at the brewfest, perhaps 7. I know I can fit at least 6 cornies in this puppy and with a 10" collar, I can even fit a corny on the compressor hump. If I have to, I'll add a faucet to the sides next as this is designed for a crowd to have access to it, hence the spacing between faucets. I'm confident after we load it up with cornies and about 100# of ice, the beer will stay nice and cold till the last keg floats that night.
Well, the giant keg cooler/kegerator is ready for its inaugural run tomorrow. Since everyone is supposed to bring a sixer of microbrew I thought I'd install a couple of bottle openers on each end. This should keep the brew cold for the duration.
Nice how you were able to throw that together on the spur of the moment. Let's hear it for recycling!!!
This worked out fantastically! What a night. 5 kegs of homebrew floated plus 3 gallons of Apfelwein. SWMBO drove home and there was till half a Sanke of local micro pale ale going. Overall, the dead freezer performed as I expected. People kept asking how we kept the beer cold. Lift the lid and look at the ice. After the kegs were gone, the bottle openers on each side came in very handy. Pictures to follow in the morning.

ABSTRACT: We describe a novel two-photon (2P) laser scanning microscopy (2PLSM) protocol that provides ratiometric transmural measurements of membrane voltage (Vm ) via Di-4-ANEPPS in intact mouse, rat and rabbit hearts with subcellular resolution. The same cells were then imaged with Fura-2/AM for intracellular Ca(2+) recordings. Action potentials (APs) were accurately characterized by 2PLSM vs. microelectrodes, albeit fast events (<1 ms) were sub-optimally acquired by 2PLSM due to limited sampling frequencies (2.6 kHz). The slower Ca(2+) transient (CaT) time course (>1ms) could be accurately described by 2PLSM. In conclusion, Vm - and Ca(2+) -sensitive dyes can be 2P excited within the cardiac muscle wall to provide AP and Ca(2+) signals to ∼400 µm. (© 2013 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim).Journal of Biophotonics 10/2013; · 3.86 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: -Electrical excitability in the ventricular wall is influenced by cellular electrophysiology and passive electrical properties of the myocardium. Action potential (AP) rise time, an indicator of myocardial excitability, is influenced by conduction pattern and distance from the epicardial surface. This study examined AP rise times and conduction velocity (CV) as the depolarising wavefront approaches the epicardial surface. METHODS AND RESULTS: -Two-photon excitation of di-4-ANEPPS was used to measure electrical activity at discrete epicardial layers of isolated Langendorff-perfused rabbit hearts to a depth of 500μm. Endo-to-epicardial wavefronts were studied during right atrial (RA) or ventricular endocardial pacing. Similar measurements were made with epi-to-endocardial, transverse, and longitudinal pacing protocols. Results were compared with data from a bi-domain model of 3-dimensional electrical propagation within ventricular myocardium. During RA and endocardial pacing, AP rise time (10-90% of upstroke) decreased by ~50% between 500μm and 50μm from the epicardial surface, while CV increased and AP duration was only slightly shorter (~4%). These differences were not observed with other conduction patterns. The depth-dependent changes in rise time were larger at higher pacing rates. Modelling data qualitatively reproduced the behaviour seen experimentally and demonstrated a parallel reduction in peak INa and electrotonic load as the wavefront approaches the epicardial surface. CONCLUSIONS: -Decreased electrotonic load at the epicardial surface results in more rapid AP upstrokes and higher CVs compared to the bulk myocardium. Combined effects of tissue depth and pacing rate on AP rise time reduce conduction safety and myocardial excitability within the ventricular wall.Circulation Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology 06/2013; · 5.95 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The tolerable duration of continuous high-intensity exercise is determined by the hyperbolic Speed-tolerable duration (S-tLIM) relationship. However, application of the S-tLIM relationship to normalize the intensity of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) has yet to be considered, with this the aim of present study. Subjects completed a ramp-incremental test, and series of 4 constant-speed tests to determine the S-tLIM relationship. A sub-group of subjects (n = 8) then repeated 4 min bouts of exercise at the speeds predicted to induce intolerance at 4 min (WR4), 6 min (WR6) and 8 min (WR8), interspersed with bouts of 4 min recovery, to the point of exercise intolerance (fixed WR HIIT) on different days, with the aim of establishing the work rate that could be sustained for 960 s (i.e. 4×4 min). A sub-group of subjects (n = 6) also completed 4 bouts of exercise interspersed with 4 min recovery, with each bout continued to the point of exercise intolerance (maximal HIIT) to determine the appropriate protocol for maximizing the amount of high-intensity work that can be completed during 4×4 min HIIT. For fixed WR HIIT tLIM of HIIT sessions was 399±81 s for WR4, 892±181 s for WR6 and 1517±346 s for WR8, with total exercise durations all significantly different from each other (P<0.050). For maximal HIIT, there was no difference in tLIM of each of the 4 bouts (Bout 1: 229±27 s; Bout 2: 262±37 s; Bout 3: 235±49 s; Bout 4: 235±53 s; P>0.050). However, there was significantly less high-intensity work completed during bouts 2 (153.5±40. 9 m), 3 (136.9±38.9 m), and 4 (136.7±39.3 m), compared with bout 1 (264.9±58.7 m; P>0.050). These data establish that WR6 provides the appropriate work rate to normalize the intensity of HIIT between subjects. Maximal HIIT provides a protocol which allows the relative contribution of the work rate profile to physiological adaptations to be considered during alternative intensity-matched HIIT protocols.PLoS ONE 01/2013; 8(11):e76420. · 3.53 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: ABSTRACT Objectives: To investigate the mechanisms of losartan- and exercise training-induced improvements on endothelial dysfunction in heart failure. Design: Sprague-Dawley rats subjected to left coronary artery ligation inducing myocardial infarction and heart failure were randomized to losartan treatment, high-intensity exercise training, or both. Results: Losartan, but not exercise training, reduced the heart failure-associated elevation in left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (26±2 mmHg vs. 19±1 mmHg after losartan). In contrast, both exercise training and losartan improved exercise capacity, by 40% and 20%, respectively; no additional effects were observed when exercise training and losartan were combined. Aortic segments were mounted on a force transducer to determine vasorelaxation. Heart failure impaired endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation, observed as a 1.9-fold reduced response to acetylcholine (EC(50)). Exercise and losartan improved acetylcholine-mediated vasorelaxation to the same extent, but by different mechanisms. Exercise training upregulated the nitric oxide pathway, whereas losartan upregulated a non-nitric oxide or -prostacyclin pathway; possibly involving the endothelium-dependent hyperpolarizing factor. Conclusions: Both losartan and exercise training reversed endothelial dysfunction in heart failure; exercise training via nitric oxide-dependent vasorelaxation, and losartan via an unknown mechanism that may involve endothelium-dependent hyperpolarizing factor. Thus, the combined treatment activated an additional nitric oxide-independent mechanism that contributed to reduce endothelial dysfunction.Scandinavian cardiovascular journal: SCJ 12/2012; · 1.07 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Low aerobic exercise capacity is a powerful predictor of premature morbidity and mortality for healthy adults as well as those with cardiovascular disease. For aged populations, poor performance on treadmill or extended walking tests indicates closer proximity to future health declines. Together, these findings suggest a fundamental connection between aerobic capacity and longevity. Through artificial selective breeding, we developed an animal model system to prospectively test the association between aerobic exercise capacity and survivability (aerobic hypothesis). Laboratory rats of widely diverse genetic backgrounds (N:NIH stock) were selectively bred for low or high intrinsic (inborn) treadmill running capacity. Cohorts of male and female rats from generations 14, 15, and 17 of selection were followed for survivability and assessed for age-related declines in cardiovascular fitness including maximal oxygen uptake (VO(2max)), myocardial function, endurance performance, and change in body mass. Median lifespan for low exercise capacity rats was 28% to 45% shorter than high capacity rats (hazard ratio, 0.06; P<0.001). VO(2max), measured across adulthood was a reliable predictor of lifespan (P<0.001). During progression from adult to old age, left ventricular myocardial and cardiomyocyte morphology, contractility, and intracellular Ca(2+) handling in both systole and diastole, as well as mean blood pressure, were more compromised in rats bred for low aerobic capacity. Physical activity levels, energy expenditure (Vo(2)), and lean body mass were all better sustained with age in rats bred for high aerobic capacity. These data obtained from a contrasting heterogeneous model system provide strong evidence that genetic segregation for aerobic exercise capacity can be linked with longevity and are useful for deeper mechanistic exploration of aging.Circulation Research 09/2011; 109(10):1162-72. · 11.09 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The response of transverse (T)-tubules to exercise training in health and disease remains unclear. Therefore, we studied the effect of exercise training on the density and spacing of left ventricle cardiomyocyte T-tubules in normal and remodeled hearts that associate with detubulation, by confocal laser scanning microscopy. First, exercise training in normal rats increased cardiomyocyte volume by 16% (P < 0.01), with preserved T-tubule density. Thus, the T-tubules adapted to the physiologic hypertrophy. Next, we studied T-tubules in a rat model of metabolic syndrome with pressure overload-induced concentric left ventricle hypertrophy, evidenced by 15% (P < 0.01) increased cardiomyocyte size. These rats had only 85% (P < 0.01) of the T-tubule density of control rats. Exercise training further increased cardiomyocyte volume by 8% (P < 0.01); half to that in control rats, but the T-tubule density remained unchanged. Finally, post-myocardial infarction heart failure induced severe cardiac pathology, with a 70% (P < 0.01) increased cardiomyocyte volume that included both eccentric and concentric hypertrophy and 55% (P < 0.01) reduced T-tubule density. Exercise training reversed 50% (P < 0.01) of the pathologic hypertrophy, whereas the T-tubule density increased by 40% (P < 0.05) compared to sedentary heart failure, but remained at 60% of normal hearts (P < 0.01). Physiologic hypertrophy associated with conserved T-tubule spacing (~1.8-1.9 µm), whereas in pathologic hypertrophy, T-tubules appeared disorganized without regular spacing. In conclusion, cardiomyocytes maintain the relative T-tubule density during physiologic hypertrophy and after mild concentric pathologic hypertrophy, whereas after severe pathologic remodeling with a substantial loss of T-tubules; exercise training reverses the remodeling and partly corrects the T-tubule density.Journal of Cellular Physiology 09/2011; 226(9):2235-43. · 3.87 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Activation of the multifunctional Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) plays a critical role modulating cardiac function in both health and disease. Here, we determined the effect of chronic CaMKII inhibition during an exercise training program in healthy mice. CaMKII was inhibited by KN-93 injections. Mice were randomized to the following groups: sham sedentary, sham exercise, KN-93 sedentary, and KN-93 exercise. Cardiorespiratory function was evaluated by ergospirometry during treadmill running, echocardiography, and cardiomyocyte fractional shortening and calcium handling. The results revealed that KN-93 alone had no effect on exercise capacity or fractional shortening. In sham animals, exercise training increased maximal oxygen uptake by 8% (p < 0.05) compared to a 22% (p < 0.05) increase after exercise in KN-93 treated mice (group difference p < 0.01). In contrast, in vivo fractional shortening evaluated by echocardiography improved after exercise in sham animals only: from 25 to 32% (p < 0.02). In inactive mice, KN-93 reduced rates of diastolic cardiomyocyte re-lengthening (by 25%, p < 0.05) as well as Ca(2+) transient decay (by 16%, p < 0.05), whereas no such effect was observed after exercise training. KN-93 blunted exercise training response on cardiomyocyte fractional shortening (63% sham vs. 18% KN-93; p < 0.01 and p < 0.05, respectively). These effects could not be solely explained by the Ca(2+) transient amplitude, as KN-93 reduced it by 20% (p < 0.05) and response to exercise training was equal (64% sham and 47% KN-93; both p < 0.01). We concluded that chronic CaMKII inhibition increased time to 50% re-lengthening which were recovered by exercise training, but paradoxically led to a greater increase in maximal oxygen uptake compared to sham mice. Thus, the effect of chronic CaMKII inhibition is multifaceted and of a complex nature.Arbeitsphysiologie 05/2011; 112(2):579-88. · 2.30 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We aimed to improve the physical capacity of a top-level elite football team during its pre-season by implementing a maximal strength and high-intensity endurance training program. 21 first league elite football players (20-31 yrs, height 171-194 cm, mass 58.8-88.1 kg) having recently participated in the UEFA Champions' League, took part in the study. Aerobic interval-training at 90-95% of maximal heart rate and half-squats strength training with maximum loads in 4 repetitions × 4 sets were performed concurrently twice a week for 8 weeks. The players were not familiar with maximal strength training as part of their regular program. Maximal oxygen uptake (VO(2max)) increased 8.6% (1.7-16.6) (p<0.001), from 60.5 (51.7-67.1) to 65.7 (58.0-74.5) mL · kg (-1) · min (-1) whereas half-squat one repetition maximum increased 51.7% (13.3-135.3) (p<0.001), from 116 (85-150) to 176 (160-210) kg. The 10-m sprint time also improved by 0.06 s (0.02-0.16) (p<0.001); while counter movement jump improved 3.0 cm (0.1-6.2) (p<0.001), following the training program. The concurrent strength and endurance training program together with regular football training resulted in considerable improvement of the players' physical capacity and so may be successfully introduced to elite football players.International Journal of Sports Medicine 05/2011; 32(9):677-82. · 2.27 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Impaired cardiac control of intracellular diastolic Ca(2+) gives rise to arrhythmias. Whereas exercise training corrects abnormal cyclic Ca(2+) handling in heart failure, the effect on diastolic Ca(2+) remains unstudied. Here, we studied the effect of exercise training on the generation and propagation of spontaneous diastolic Ca(2+) waves in failing cardiomyocytes. Post-myocardial infarction heart failure was induced in Sprague-Dawley rats by coronary artery ligation. Echocardiography confirmed left ventricular infarctions of 40 ± 5%, whereas heart failure was indicated by increased left ventricular end-diastolic pressures, decreased contraction-relaxation rates, and pathological hypertrophy. Spontaneous Ca(2+) waves were imaged by laser linescanning confocal microscopy (488 nm excitation/505-530 nm emission) in 2 µM Fluo-3-loaded cardiomyocytes at 37°C and extracellular Ca(2+) of 1.2 and 5.0 mM. These studies showed that spontaneous Ca(2+) wave frequency was higher at 5.0 mM than 1.2 mM extracellular Ca(2+) in all rats, but failing cardiomyocytes generated 50% (P < 0.01) more waves compared to sham-operated controls at Ca(2+) 1.2 and 5.0 mM. Exercise training reduced the frequency of spontaneous waves at both 1.2 and 5.0 mM Ca(2+) (P < 0.05), although complete normalization was not achieved. Exercise training also increased the aborted/completed ratio of waves at 1.2 mM Ca(2+) (P < 0.01), but not 5.0 mM. Finally, we repeated these studies after inhibiting the nitric oxide synthase with L-NAME. No differential effects were found; thus, mediation did not involve the nitric oxide synthase. In conclusion, exercise training improved the cardiomyocyte control of diastolic Ca(2+) by reducing the Ca(2+) wave frequency and by improving the ability to abort spontaneous Ca(2+) waves after their generation, but before cell-wide propagation.Journal of Cellular Physiology 04/2011; 227(1):20-6. · 3.87 Impact Factor -

ABSTRACT: Maximal strength training with a focus on maximal mobilization of force in the concentric phase improves endurance performance that employs a large muscle mass. However, this has not been studied during work with a small muscle mass, which does not challenge convective oxygen supply. We therefore randomized 23 adult females with no arm-training history to either one-arm maximal strength training or a control group. The training group performed five sets of five repetitions of dynamic arm curls against a near-maximal load, 3 days a week for 8 weeks. This training increased maximal strength by 75% and improved rate of force development during both strength and endurance exercise, suggesting that each arm curl became more efficient. This coincided with a 17-18% reduction in oxygen cost at standardized submaximal workloads (work economy), and a 21% higher peak oxygen uptake and 30% higher peak load during maximal arm endurance exercise. Blood flow assessed by Doppler ultrasound in the axillary artery supplying the working biceps brachii and brachialis muscles could not explain the training-induced adaptations. These data suggest that maximal strength training improved work economy and endurance performance in the skeletal muscle, and that these effects are independent of convective oxygen supply.Journal of Sports Sciences 01/2011; 29(2):161-70. · 2.08 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: High-intensity exercise training contributes to the production and accumulation of blood lactate, which is cleared by active recovery. However, there is no commonly agreed intensity or mode for clearing accumulated blood lactate. We studied clearance of accumulated blood lactate during recovery at various exercise intensities at or below the lactate threshold after high-intensity interval runs that prompted lactate accumulation. Ten males repeated 5-min running bouts at 90% of maximal oxygen uptake (VO(2max)), which increased blood lactate concentration from 1.0 +/- 0.1 to 3.9 +/- 0.3 mmol l(-1). This was followed by recovery exercises ranging from 0 to 100% of lactate threshold. Repeated blood lactate measurements showed faster clearance of lactate during active versus passive recovery, and that the decrease in lactate was more rapid during higher (60-100% of lactate threshold) than lower (0-40% of lactate threshold) (P < 0.05) intensities. The more detailed curve and rate analyses showed that active recovery at 80-100% of lactate threshold had shorter time constants for 67% lactate clearance and higher peak clearance rates than 40% of lactate threshold or passive recovery (P < 0.05). Finally, examination of self-regulated intensities showed enhanced lactate clearance during higher versus lower intensities, further validating the intensity dependence of clearance of accumulated blood lactate. Therefore, active recovery after strenuous exercise clears accumulated blood lactate faster than passive recovery in an intensity-dependent manner. Maximum clearance occurred at active recovery close to the lactate threshold.Journal of Sports Sciences 07/2010; 28(9):975-82. · 2.08 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: One of the main outcomes of aerobic endurance exercise training is the improved maximal oxygen uptake, and this is pivotal to the improved work capacity that follows the exercise training. Improved maximal oxygen uptake in turn is at least partly achieved because exercise training increases the ability of the myocardium to produce a greater cardiac output. In healthy subjects, this has been demonstrated repeatedly over many decades. It has recently emerged that this scenario may also be true under conditions of an initial myocardial dysfunction. For instance, myocardial improvements may still be observed after exercise training in post-myocardial infarction heart failure. In both health and disease, it is the changes that occur in the individual cardiomyocytes with respect to their ability to contract that by and large drive the exercise training-induced adaptation to the heart. Here, we review the evidence and the mechanisms by which exercise training induces beneficial changes in the mammalian myocardium, as obtained by means of experimental and clinical studies, and argue that these changes ultimately alter the function of the whole heart and contribute to the changes in whole-body function.Acta Physiologica 03/2010; 199(4):425-39. · 4.25 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Exercise training-induced cardiac hypertrophy occurs following a program of aerobic endurance exercise training and it is considered as a physiologically beneficial adaptation. To investigate the underlying biology of physiological hypertrophy, we rely on robust experimental models of exercise training in laboratory animals that mimic the training response in humans. A number of experimental strategies have been established, such as treadmill and voluntary wheel running and swim training models that all associate with cardiac growth. These approaches have been applied to numerous animal models with various backgrounds. However, important differences exist between these experimental approaches, which may affect the interpretation of the results. Here, we review the various approaches that have been used to experimentally study exercise training-induced cardiac hypertrophy; including the advantages and disadvantages of the various models.Physiological research / Academia Scientiarum Bohemoslovaca 01/2010; 59(5):633-44. · 1.49 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This chapter compares the imaging capabilities of a range of systems including multiphoton microscopy in regard to measurements of intracellular Ca(2+) within living cells. In particular, the excitation spectra of popular fluorescent Ca(2+) indicators are shown during 1P and 2P excitation. The strengths and limitations of the current indicators are discussed along with error analysis which highlights the value of matching the Ca(2+) affinity of the dye to a particular aspect of Ca(2+) signaling. Finally, the combined emission spectra of Ca(2+) and voltage sensitive dyes are compared to allow the choice of the optimum combination to allow simultaneous intracellular Ca(2+) and membrane voltage measurement.Methods in cell biology 01/2010; 99:225-61. · 1.44 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Regular exercise training confers beneficial effects to the heart as well as to the entire body. This occurs partly because exercise training improves skeletal muscle work capacity and reduces resistance, thus increasing conductance in the peripheral circulation. More directly, exercise training also alters extrinsic modulation of the heart and improves the intrinsic pump capacity of the heart. Together, these effects allow for improved exercise capacity. Accumulating evidence suggests that the magnitude of these benefits increases proportionally with the intensity of individual exercise training sessions constituting the exercise training program. It has emerged that regular exercise training also confers beneficial effects to patients at risk for, or who have, established heart dysfunction and disease and, moreover, that exercise training may reduce the dysfunction of the heart itself and, at least, partly restore its ability to effectively function as a pump. The most recent studies in patients with established heart disease suggest that a high relative, yet aerobic, intensity of the exercise training improves the intrinsic pump capacity of the myocardium, an effect not previously believed to occur with exercise training. However, more and larger studies are needed to establish the safety and efficacy of such exercise training in patients with heart disease. Here, we consider the nature of the intensity dependence of exercise training and the causes of the improved heart function.Journal of cardiopulmonary rehabilitation and prevention 01/2010; 30(1):2-11. · 1.68 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This study aims to investigate changes that occur during progression and establishment of physiological and pathological cardiac hypertrophy, by microarray technology and functional annotations. Myocardial infarction leading to heart failure was induced in rats, with animals killed 1, 3, 7, 14, 42, and 92 days after coronary artery ligation. A second group was subjected to daily treadmill exercise and killed 1, 4, 24, and 48 h after a single exercise bout, or after 28 or 56 days of exercise training. Physiological hypertrophy was associated with less transcriptional alternation than pathological hypertrophy, indicating that posttranscriptional and translational regulation may be more important. The main difference between the two types of hypertrophy was that myocardial infarction was associated with downregulation of genes related to fatty acid metabolism, whereas no such change occurred after exercise training. Thus, fatty acid metabolism may distinguish adverse maladaptive hypertrophy from beneficial adaptive hypertrophy. This study points to specific genes and gene classes related to biological processes that may be important in these well-characterized rat models of physiological and pathological cardiac hypertrophy.European journal of cardiovascular prevention and rehabilitation: official journal of the European Society of Cardiology, Working Groups on Epidemiology & Prevention and Cardiac Rehabilitation and Exercise Physiology 10/2009; 16(6):690-7. · 2.51 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In the present study we explored the mechanisms behind excitation-contraction (EC) coupling defects in cardiomyocytes from mice with type-2 diabetes (db/db). We determined whether 13 weeks of aerobic interval training could restore cardiomyocyte Ca(2+) cycling and EC coupling. Reduced contractility in cardiomyocytes isolated from sedentary db/db was associated with increased diastolic sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR)-Ca(2+) leak, reduced synchrony of Ca(2+) release, reduced transverse (T)-tubule density, and lower peak systolic and diastolic Ca(2+) and caffeine-induced Ca(2+) release. Additionally, the rate of SR Ca(2+) ATPase-mediated Ca(2+) uptake during diastole was reduced, whereas a faster recovery from caffeine-induced Ca(2+) release indicated increased Na(+)/Ca(2+)-exchanger activity. The increased SR-Ca(2+) leak was attributed to increased Ca(2+)-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMKIIdelta) phosphorylation, supported by the normalization of SR-Ca(2+) leak on inhibition of CaMKIIdelta (AIP). Exercise training restored contractile function associated with restored SR Ca(2+) release synchronicity, T-tubule density, twitch Ca(2+) amplitude, SR Ca(2+) ATPase and Na(+)/Ca(2+)-exchanger activities, and SR-Ca(2+) leak. The latter was associated with reduced phosphorylation of cytosolic CaMKIIdelta. Despite normal contractile function and Ca(2+) handling after the training period, phospholamban was hyperphosphorylated at Serine-16. Protein kinase A inhibition (H-89) in cardiomyocytes from the exercised db/db group abolished the differences in SR-Ca(2+) load when compared with the sedentary db/db mice. EC coupling changes were observed without changes in serum insulin or glucose levels, suggesting that the exercise training-induced effects are not via normalization of the diabetic condition. These data demonstrate that aerobic interval training almost completely restored the contractile function of the diabetic cardiomyocyte to levels close to sedentary wild type.Circulation Research 09/2009; 105(6):527-36. · 11.09 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We hypothesized that high-intensity aerobic interval training results in a greater beneficial adaptation of the heart compared with that observed after low-to-moderate exercise intensity. This is supported by recent epidemiological, experimental, and clinical studies.

Amanda Knox: Diane Sawyer Special Boosts Book Sales
"Waiting to Be Heard" shot up Amazon's sales rankings after the Tuesday-night broadcast as the ABC newswoman books her next big author interview with the Pakistani schoolgirl shot by the Taliban.
Diane Sawyer delivers.
Sawyer's primetime ABC interview with Amanda Knox has given Knox's memoir, Waiting to Be Heard, a big sales boost.
The book has moved into Amazon's top five sellers. At the end of last week, the book had not managed to crack the e-retailer's top 100 for books.
First-week sales details from Bookscan won't be available until May 8, but Amazon numbers provide a good leading indicator of sales.
Overnight ratings for the special were also strong. ABC hit a 12-week high in the 10 p.m. Tuesday slot with a 1.7 rating among adults 18 to 49 and 8.5 million viewers.
The strong bump is a good sign for publisher HarperCollins, which paid a reported $4 million for the story of the Seattle college student ensnared in the murder of her British roommate.
The news also confirms a Sawyer interview as one of the most reliable promotional vehicles for a book.
In just the last two years, specials hosted by Sawyer have given boosts to books by Jaycee Dugard, Bob Woodward, Congresswoman Gabby Giffords and a newly-released collection of Jackie Kennedy recordings.
ABC also announced Wednesday that Sawyer has nabbed an exclusive book-related interview with Malala Yousafzai, the 15-year-old Pakistani student shot by Taliban militants for advocating schooling for girls.
The interview will air in October in conjunction with the release of her memoir, I Am Malala, which is slated for publication around the one-year anniversary of her shooting Oct. 9.

The 'Mar Inn' stood near Alloa Shore, not far north of the harbour wall. The building may have been of late-seventeenth or early-eighteenth-century in date and was probably named after the 6th Earl of Mar (1675–1732), who laid the foundations of the industrial development of Alloa. It was a busy public house in the days when Alloa was a thriving port with a significant shipbuilding industry. Its fortunes changed as the port began to decline, especially after the Wet Dock was closed in 1960, and by the 1980s it was barely used. A fire caused severe damage and the building was eventually demolished.
