There was a vaccine on the market but was discontinued in 2002 by its manufacturer. I don't know reasons why.

Pfizer currently has a Lymes vaccine study that I have some personal knowledge on that should be wrapped up in 2025: https://www.pfizer.com/news/press-release/press-release-deta...

> About the VALOR trial VALOR is an ongoing randomized, observer-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 trial which has enrolled 9,437* participants 5 years of age and older to receive VLA15 or a saline placebo (1:1 ratio). As part of the primary series, participants receive three doses of VLA15 within the first year at months 0, 2 and 5-9, and one booster dose 9-12 months after completion of the primary immunization.5 The final primary series vaccination for participants occurs just before the peak Lyme disease season for the region. Participants will be followed for the occurrence of Lyme disease. The trial is conducted at sites located in areas where Lyme disease is highly endemic across the U.S., Canada and Europe and has enrolled volunteers with a cleared past infection with Borrelia burgdorferi as well as Borrelia burgdorferi naïve volunteers.

I, too, tried to load it up today and realized it looks no longer. A search for if it existed anymore brought me here. I would have thought it's retirement would have been larger news or maybe I'm just out of the loop.

I went through them for the first time last year, without ever having seen them. I think I'd be equally excited either way. Working, I didn't get to appreciate them from the other angle, I assume equally as neat.

Mariner here, I've been in a similar situation on the Great Lakes (US). Absolutely the first thing I thought of.

"I bought the fridge so my wife could keep up with my calendar. I hope this gets fixed soon. That is a lot of wasted money if no one can use this anymore."

If only there were other ways of checking or sharing an electronic calendar! The future is now.

It appears like a shameless self-plug article about the developers app.

Regarding the Super Meat Boy issue, here is a response from David Pitkin who runs the Ubuntu Software Center at Canonical and works with developers:

"I just looked into it and the check to Tommy and Edmund from Canonical is in process for the 77 copies of Super Meat Boy. We have been working together since November to get it resolved, no piracy here just some miscommunication".

Internettrafficreport isn't the most reliable (normally there are lots of zeroes on their graphs), but it does indicate a large change in some numbers.

Another place to check for good information is http://www.outages.org/

There have been a few incidents as of the past few days. Last night, there was a nationwide outage from Frontier that has since been resolved.

The day prior there was a triple failure in the Midwest as reported http://vielmetti.typepad.com/vacuum/2012/10/windstream-outag... that affected lots of services in a large area.
