	Which shows new releases, by showing up (names on the right side) they exist somewhere. Any site column with a blank entry, means the release is there and complete. '''INC''' means that the release is incomplete (INCTEST patten matches), and similarly '''NUKE''' means nuked. '''MISS''' means this release is not on this site.

	=== ~~Automatic queueing~~ ===		=== America ===

	~~In addition~~ to ~~finding new entries, you can ask clomps to create queues~~. ~~The queue lines~~ are ~~defines with '''pass number'''. Starting from 1. This means~~, ~~all queue lines with pass=1 will be started at the same time. Once all pass=1 transfers are complete, clomps will run pass=2. This allows for all-concurrent queueing, or~~, ~~sequentially queueing~~.		Proposed trip to Canada USA in Summer 2011. We are staying in Waupoos Island, and need to stop in Toronto, and Boston.

	~~For example (Spaces added between '\|' separator for readability):~~		Since we are in the area, we might as well stop by Niagara Falls. According to Google it is only 4 hours from Boston to New York City. So it would seem prudent to get NYC over with.

	~~Which would automatically transfer items from '''glftpdSite''' "~~/~~tv-x264~~/~~", to '''ASite1''' "~~/~~x264-tv~~/". But only releases matching "the.simpson" etc, unless they are FINSUB* etc. The '''INCSKIP''' tells clomps not to transfer things that are incomplete. Clomps will then only transfer completed-releases. If you remove '''INCSKIP''' clomps will start to move incomplete releases as well.

	~~The right-hand side in ACCEPT and REJECT statements are slash-separated list~~ of ~~matches. Ie, "simpsons/blue.planet" would match on "simpsons" and "blue.planet"~~, with glob-style pattern matching. This means "I.hate.simpsons" would match (in the middle) but "the.blue.planet" would not (since it was not "blue.planet". No starting ""). Note that this would also fail on "Blue_Planet" and ~~"blue planet", since the period "." is literal. The best way is to use "blue?planet". All matches are '''case-insensitive'''~~.		Areas of interest, and possible sleep overs.

			Six Flags Great Adventure, Jackson, New Jersey- Just an 80-minute drive from Manhattan sits the largest theme park in the world. Six Flags Great Adventure features 12 monster roller coasters and includes a Wild Safari. There is also Six Flags Hurricane Harbor right next door (the largest water park in the Northeast). New Jersey Transit also provides bus service from the Port Authority Bus Terminal in Manhattan when the park is open (May-October).

	AUTOQ\|PASSNUM=2\|FROM=ASite1\|TO=home \| ACCEPT=* \| REJECT=dvdrip		Jersey Shore, New Jersey- The Jersey Shore starts just a few miles south of New York City. It stretches for almost 130 miles, and along it are private and public beaches. There are numerous activities along the Jersey Shore. A convenient train ride on the NJ Transit trains from Penn Station will get you to several of the towns on the Jersey Shore, including Manasquan and Point Pleasant Beach.

	~~After pass=1 has completed~~, ~~move '''everything'''~~ from ~~'''ASite1'''~~ to ~~home~~. ~~Except for dvdrips~~. ~~Incompletes will also be started~~.		Long Island— When you travel to NYC in the summer, a great idea is to check out Long Island. With its beautiful long white sanded beaches you can have it all: the big city and the summer holiday. Many New Yorkers do that every Friday, Saturday and Sunday if it is hot. Take the Long Island Rail Road from Penn Station to Long Beach ($6.75 one way), and from there go south to the beach itself. Take a day trip on the Hampton Jitney from various stops in NYC to the East End, where Long Island wine country is on the North Fork and The Hamptons are on the South Fork.


			NYC: Grand Central Station?
			NYC: Central Zoo
			NYC: The Cloisters

			* NYC hotel on 26th - Salisbury hotel

			* LAX hotel on 29th.
			* rent car LA, 28th 29th.

			* The Kidspace Children’s Museum in Pasadena
			* Science museum

			* Anaheim water park

Great wall of China - Bedaling
Taking the train to the Great Wall of China...
For the first 20 minutes, the train negotiates the Beijing suburbs, then it accelerates to around 80mph for a brief sprint to its first station stop. After stopping briefly at this station, the train starts climbing at slow speed into the mountains to Badaling. You start to see parts of the Great Wall as soon as you leave the station stop, so have your camera ready! The train reverses direction at the stop before Badaling, so don't be surprised when this happens. 2 hours at the wall is plenty, so taking the 09:33 from Beijing out and the 15:22 from Badaling back, or the 13:19 out and 19:40 back all work fine. If you want to return earlier, there are also regular buses back to Beijing.
