Online biological databases gain importance in research in biology. These databases usually offer an online search, but the results are just prepared in a textual way. Visualization gives a better view on the data for an easier overall impression of the meaning. When researching in the area of proteins and protein-protein interactions, a computer-based analysis facilitates the process of evaluating the data. However, most existing solutions put their focus on one or at most two proteins including their interaction partners. The InSilico Proteomics System project at the FH O R&D Center Hagenberg, Austria, aims on integrating public as well as experimentally obtained protein-protein interaction data in one database. PRIMOS (PRotein Interaction and MOlecule Search engine) provides a Web interface for retrieving data from this database. As a result of this work, the Web interface was expanded with a visualization and a computer-based analysis of the data. This work is targeting biologists with technical knowledge who are investigating proteins and protein-protein interactions and software developers in the biological area - e.g. for bioinformatic tools.

another woman, Lara's heart is broken...almost.

Sunny Alvarez is tired of having a man who won't commit and the urge to get away from it all is stronger than ever. In Monte Carlo, she expects rest and relaxation; instead, she finds herself caught in a web of intrigue involving a series of robberies of high-end jewelry stores. Can Sunny trust the new friends she meets in this glamorous hotel in the South of France? Plus, there's Sunny's old friend, movie star Allie Ray, who owns a vineyard in France and who comes to Sunny's aid, while at the same time sorting out the life and appearance of her old friend, Pru Hilson, with a makeover that not only changes her dowdy, overweight appearance, but changes Pru into an amateur detective. If Sunny doesn't untangle this plot, she might end up an unwitting accomplice to theft, blackmail, and even murder. When her boyfriend, Mac Reilly, shows up, he's ready to do anything to get Sunny back, not the least of which is to solve the crimes and save her life. Filled with the decadent details and "you-are-there" writing that have enthralled Elizabeth Adler's legion of fans, "It All Began in Monte Carlo "is a perfect gem and a perfect escape.
