9:00 A – 4:00P, + remotely 5:00P-7:20P, 8:20P-11:20PM

• O/N STORM run still going smooth and in focus at 8:00 AM.
• O/N STORM run completes on time, 9:30AM.  Break down run turn off scope.

• Coding matlab wrapper for python / DaoSTORM (see post)
• Rewrote insightM wrapper into smarter fxn based on new DaoSTORM wrapper.   Also has proper vargin inputs.
• Initialize new local code repository Matlab_STORM for good copies of Matlab scripts for STORM analysis.
• setup Matlab_STORM on Github
• send git intro to Jeff.
• screwed up pointer to DaoSTORM parameters file for test run 1.  Fixed and re-running analysis to compare.
• Analysis completed.  Didn’t include tracking (repeat this?)
• Attempting to get DaoSTORM running on Monet.  Need to recompile c libraries for Windows 7 Ultimate (I think this is the error.  Windows 2008 Server binaries not working).
• Installing MinGW.
• Downloaded windows compiled Lapack from here
• Failed to install a functional version of 4 bit MinGW compiler (can download but  not install / compile to create executable form).  Attempts to change file in shell script and execute fail.
• unable to link lapack.
• 
• Probably should be doing this with the 64 bit compiler anyway.
• 5 hours of downloading installing and surfing for solutions.   No progress.  Yay windows for having STUPID DIFFICULT ability to get a simple 64 bit c-compiler working.   Try on Linux laptop next?

• Check: previously ordered fly stocks have not arrived.
• Sent introduction letter to Fred Bantignies, with demo figure.
• Sent update on OligoPAINT STORM to Ting Wu.

• Process all snail Tup promoter data.  Post into map collection.
• Send updated results for Tup data to mounia.

• Colenso diagnosing issues with STORM4. Laser alignment on laser table substantially off-base, and beam alignement after fiber into objective substantially skewed, resulting in low laser power.  Should now be fixed.  Beam expansion lens now 100 mm focal point (smaller than previous).
