+====== Preparation before Coming to the basic Course ======
+Before you come to the course, there are several things you should do by yourself.
+  - Installation / Upgrading of Fiji (ImageJ).
+  - Install plugins.
+  - If you have a problem, write an email to Kota.
+**Details: **\\
+===== 1. Installation of the newest version Fiji(ImageJ). =====
+Please be ready with the newest Fiji installed on your laptop. If you already have one installed, be sure to upgrade the software (see step 2). If you do not want to upgrade for whatever reason, just install the second one just for the course.
+==== INSTRUCTION ====
+**step 1. Download Fiji (ImageJ)**\\
+go to the Fiji download page:\\
+http://fiji.sc/Downloads
+Download the latest one, whichever fits your OS. \\
+In Windows OS, you just need to unpack the zip file and place the folder on your Desktop. With Mac OSX, double-click the .dmg file and install it as usual (copy Fiji to Application folder).\\
+**step 2. Upgrading**\\
+Launch Fiji.  Do  [Help -> Update Fiji...]. You might need to restart and update several times, as updater itself is updated first, restart, then plugins.
+===== 2. Installing plugins =====
+/*
+Please install 5 plugins. Download a .jar or a .class file from the following links.
+  * Sample Image Loader
+    * https://github.com/miura/CourseUtil/blob/gh-pages/target/EMBL_sampleimages-1.0.0.jar?raw=true
+  * Mosaic ToolsSuite (ParticleTracker)
+    * http://mosaic.mpi-cbg.de/Downloads/Mosaic_ToolSuite.jar
+  * Pure Denoise

+    * http://valelab.ucsf.edu/~nstuurman/IJplugins/Running_ZProjector.html
+  * Polynomial Fit
+    * http://www.optinav.com/Polynomial_Fit.htm
+Then install plugins one by one, be selecting [Plugins > Install Plugins] in the Fiji menu and choose the file you downloaded. The plugin jar file could also be dragged and dropped in the Fiji menue bar to save it in the plugin folder.

+/*
+===== Misc =====
+Please bring down power extension cable (for your laptop) for the course! Those of you with a laptop that works more than 2hours only with battery does not have to do this, but since the use of the laptop is intensive during the course, the power supply often becomes a problem. Bring down extension cable with multiple sockets if you could find it in your lab.
