MINUTEMAN MISSILE NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE

Plans Fee Meetings In Wall, Kadoka And Rapid City

Minuteman Missile National Historic Site is considering implementation
of a recreational fee program and will be seeking public input. The
recreational fee will be for guided tours through the site beginning on
Memorial Day 2008. The park will be holding public meetings in Wall,
Kadoka and Rapid City for the public to comment on the proposed fee
initiative. These meetings are tentatively scheduled for mid December.
The date, times and location will be announced in two weeks. At the
meetings, park managers and rangers will inform the public about several
possible fee rates, show analysis of fee rates with other similar
attractions in the region, and provide financial information on the
projected income of the fee area.

Recreational fees at National Park Service units are authorized by the
2004 Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act. In accordance with this
program, Minuteman Missile will be allowed to keep 100 % of the fees
collected. These fees can then be used for various projects to improve
the site. These projects could include expanding visitor services, such
as increased guided tours and preservation maintenance on the site.

In addition, the park plans to have at least one fee free day annually
in celebration of National Public Lands Day. This day will be celebrated
with an open house where visitors will be allowed to tour the site
without prior reservations. Minuteman Missile just completed its third
season of giving public tours. Visitors on tour are currently escorted
through the topside structure and launch control capsule 30 feet below
at Delta-01, a former launch control facility that housed missile crews
from the 44^th^ Missile Wing at Ellsworth AFB. They also travel to
Delta-09, a missile silo containing a deactivated Minuteman II missile.
Tours are approximately two hours in length and are given on a year
round basis, Monday through Friday.

Further information on the meetings and updates can be found on the
park's website at: [www.nps.gov/mimi](http://www.nps.gov/mimi) or by
calling the park's headquarters office at (605)-433-5552. These meetings
are separate from the General Management Plan public meetings currently
slated for 2007.

Active organic chemistry in the thick N~2~/CH~4~ atmosphere of Titan is
induced by irradiations of Solar UV photons and Saturnian magnetospheric
electrons, which leads to the higher organic gaseous species and haze
particles. Laboratory simulations using cold plasma discharge have
successfully produced the gases species and tholins that reasonably
match several Titan's observations. Optical properties of tholins
explain Titan's geometric albedo, and similar absorption peaks are
observed in surface reflectance by DISR. Pyrolysis analyses of tholins
show HCN and NH~3~ as main compounds with other 150 species, which is
consistent with recent ACP-GCMS observations by the Huygens Probe. More
than 100 species of gaseous compounds upto (C+N)~9~ compounds are
detected in the experiments, which would be compared with GCMS
measurements by the Huygens Probe and INMS observations by the Cassini
Orbiter.

Although both the gas and tholin products generated by cold plasma
irradiation reasonably explain the several aspects of Titan's
observations, the formation mechanism and its chemical structure are not
known well. Furthermore, the organic reactions induced by solar UV
irradiation could be very different from those in cold plasma
irradiation. We have irradiated N~2~/CH~4~ gas mixtures by UV photons of
50-180 nm wavelengths with a windowless photocell. The gaseous products
observed by quadropole mass spectrometry suggest the formation of higher
hydrocarbons and nitrogeneous compounds. We will present the preliminary
results of the formation of higher organic compounds as a function of
irradiation wavelength. The comparison of gas species produced by photon
irradiation and cold plasma irradiation will be discussed.

\[32 FR 2613, Feb. 8, 1967, as amended at 69 FR 62192, Oct. 25, 2004\]
Dr. Williams,

 

Regarding 6.0.2.4.6 and 6.0.2.4.6.1:

 

In yesterday\'s committee meeting you proposed that these be removed,
because they can\'t be done.  As you pointed out, once the ballot is
cast, it is cast; anonymity requirements in the system make the ballot
irretrievable.  Respectfully, I submit that it is possible to design the
system such that a ballot could still be spoiled as specified.

 

Rather than store the ballot record immediately when the \"cast ballot\"
button is pressed, it could be moved to an intermediate memory
location.  At this point, the system should not allow anyone to view or
alter the record, but an administrator could still spoil it and allow
the voter to begin the voting process again.  When a new voter initiates
the voting process on this machine, the previous voter\'s ballot record
is then moved from this intermediate location to its proper final
location.  Obviously, there would have to be safeguards to prevent the
possibility of voter A\'s ballot being spoiled on the word of voter B. 
Also, because the voter\'s ballot is not actually cast at the time s/he
presses the \"cast ballot\" button, this feature might not be available
in some jurisdictions without enabling legislation.

 

Many people would oppose this plan entirely, but I believe that it is
worth serious consideration.  DREs present us several opportunities that
were not available with other systems; progress is scary sometimes, but
often worth the effort.  If we decide not to go forward with something
like this, at least let that be an informed decision rather than a swift
jerk of the knee.  Of course, this is just my opinion.

 

Thank you for your consideration.

Re: Hawaii Financial Abuse Act.

Dear Ms. Wong:

You have asked if federal law preempts the Hawaii Financial Abuse Act
requiring federal credit unions (FCUs) to report suspected financial
abuse of an elder. No, it does not. You also asked if federal consumer
privacy law permits the disclosures this state law requires. It does.

Hawaii state law requires financial institutions, including FCUs, to
report suspected financial abuse against an "elder" or someone age 62 or
older. 2007 Haw. Sess. Laws Act 94. An FCU must report the suspected
abuse to Hawaii's Department of Human Services (DHS). If the DHS
notifies a reporting FCU that it does not have jurisdiction, the FCU
must then notify the police.

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) privacy provisions and the NCUA's
implementing regulation generally prohibit an FCU from disclosing
nonpublic personal information about a member to a nonaffiliated third
party unless the FCU first provides the member notice and a reasonable
opportunity to opt out of the disclosure, and the member does not opt
out. Pub. L. 106-102, 113 Stat. 1338 (1999); 12 C.F.R. Part 716. Neither
GLBA nor the Federal Credit Union Act permit NCUA to preempt a state law
that requires FCUs to disclose nonpublic personal information. To the
contrary, the requirement for notice to members and opting out do not
apply when FCUs disclose nonpublic personal information to protect
against or prevent fraud, unauthorized transactions, claims, other
liability, or to comply with state law. Pub. L. 106-102, §§502(e)(3)(B),
(8); 12 C.F.R. §§716.15(a)(2)(ii), (7)(i).

# *[Physician Global Disease Damage Assessment]{.underline}* 

Disease Damage is defined as persistent changes in anatomy, pathology,
physiology, or function, such as fibrosis, scarring, or atrophy,
resulting from any cause (including prior treatment) since the onset of
the myositis. Features of damage are ascertained by clinical assessment
and must be present for at least 6 months (or the pathology that led to
the feature must have been present for at least 6 months) despite
immunosuppressive or other therapy, including exercise and
rehabilitation. The global assessment of disease damage is to be judged
from all the information available to you today including the patient's
appearance, history, physical examination, diagnostic laboratory testing
and your resultant medical therapy.

Please rate your global (overall) assessment of the current myositis
disease damage by drawing a vertical mark on the 10-cm. line according
to the following scale: left end of line = no evidence of disease
activity, midpoint of line = moderate disease activity, and right end of
line = extreme or maximum disease.

## No evidence of Extremely severe 

disease damage disease damage

Also rate global disease damage on a 5-point Likert scale:

\_\_\_0 = none

\_\_\_1 = mild damage

\_\_\_2 = moderate damage

\_\_\_3 = severe damage

\_\_\_4 = extremely severe damage

state]{.underline}***), recently participated in Civil Air Patrol's
Specialized Undergraduate Pilot Training Familiarization (***[fill in
date and location]{.underline}***).

Offering a head start to aspiring military aviators, this one-week,
academically intense course is designed to give participating CAP cadets
an introduction to Air Force flight training. Cadets learn side-by-side
with U.S. Air Force student pilots and receive a behind-the-scenes tour
of the base's facilities, including the air control tower, aircraft
maintenance hangars and the parachute shop. The cadets also receive
briefings on the mission and operations of a flight-training wing.

The activity is one of about 30 National Cadet Special Activities being
sponsored by CAP across the nation this summer. These activities allow
cadets to hone their skills in a variety of areas, including search and
rescue, flight and emergency services, science, leadership fundamentals,
citizenship and military courtesies and to explore aerospace technology
and aviation careers. In 2007, more than 1,200 youth participated in 31
CAP-sponsored summer activities.

Through its cadet program, CAP builds strong citizens for the future by
providing leadership training, technical education, scholarships and
career education to young men and women ages 12 to 20.

[(***Last name***)]{.underline} , a cadet since [(***year***)
,]{.underline} has earned the following awards or commendations and
credentials through his involvement in CAP: (*[**List of significant
awards/commendations**)]{.underline}*. [(***Mention other significant

**Isolation and Performance Optimization of Cultures Capable of
Converting Syngas to Ethanol**

Several microbial cultures capable of converting syngas into ethanol
have been isolated from a variety of conventional and exotic
environments using techniques and media developed at Mississippi State
University. These cultures have demonstrated the ability to produce
ethanol at rates comparable to or better than those reported for
*Clostridium ljungdahlii*. Numerous media formulations have been tested
for the growth of these cultures and/or production of ethanol from these
cells. The results thus far have shown that greater amounts of cells can
be produced on media formulations that are non-traditional in
composition and targeted toward an economically viable growth technique
for cells. Another series of experiments have been oriented toward
optimizing ethanol production. This leads to the development of a
dual-fermentation system. By separating growth from ethanol production;
the optimization of ethanol production is obtained. Various fermentation
configurations are being theorized from this activity including the
immobilization of the cells within alginate-based beads or using a
dual-fermentation system for cell growth and ethanol production.
Finally, a methanogenic conversation step for utilizing some of the
waste products generated is under development as a novel energy recovery
step.

**Vacuum Case**

-   Issues are being worked in preparation for the delivery of the STA
    Vacuum Case from STADCO on February 28, 2006.

**GSE & STE**

-   Continued working on determining the sling and hand chain hoist
    required for the rotation of the Vacuum Case Test Fixture at INFN. A
    model file was created of the straps and the chain hoist vendor was
    contacted for volumetric information of their hardware.

-   Four discrepancy reports were dispositioned and closed related to
    VCTF parts not built to print.

-   Updated the VCTF drawing list and submitted list to Stress Analysts.

-   Information supplied by materials was verified. The 6 inch and 8
    inch thick plates will be hardness tested to verify the mechanical
    properties. Sketches were created for manufacturing to remove test
    pieces from the plates in question. Hardness testing will be
    performed by the materials lab in building 10.

-   Searching for vacuum sealed connectors to replace cryogenic
    connectors used in the Sine Sweep test. The cryogenic connectors are
    no longer needed since the test will not be conducted at cryogenic
    temperatures. Laid out the connector on existing vacuum case port
    covers to determine which connect and how many connectors are needed
    to pass though all internal vacuum case instrumentation.

-   Reviewed the Vacuum Case Rib Protector Drawing and contacted vendors
    of the products used in manufacturing. The drawing files for the
    hardware could no longer be located and had to be re-created.

**STA Sine Sweep Test / Cold Mass Replica**

-   Drawings for the super fluid helium tank mass simulator were
    released.

-   Work is ongoing in preparation for the sine sweep test at INFN in
    August.

**Release Date:** June 28, 2007 **Contact:** Mark Ihenacho

**Release Number:** 07-522, VA 10672-10673 **Phone:** 404-347-3771

**SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS STILL HAVE TIME TO APPLY**

SBA ECONOMIC INJURY DISASTER LOAN DEADLINE IS JULY 25

**RICHMOND, Va. -** The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is
reminding businesses located in Franklin City and the contiguous
counties of Isle of Wight and Southampton in the Commonwealth of
Virginia that Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDLs) are still available
to small businesses economically impacted by severe storms and flooding
October 10 -- 13, 2006.

"Small businesses that suffered economic injury losses as a result of
the disaster and want to apply for a low-interest loan from the SBA are
urged to do so before the **July 25, 2007** deadline," said Frank
Skaggs, Director of SBA Field Operations Center East**.**

Small businesses may apply for a loan up to \$l.5 million if they
suffered substantial economic injury from the disaster. These working
capital loans may be used to pay fixed debts, payroll, accounts payable,
and other bills that could have been paid had the disaster not occurred.
These loans are not intended to replace lost sales or profits.

The interest rate on these loans is 4 percent, with a maximum term of 30
years. The SBA determines the amount of economic injury and the terms of
each loan amount, based on the financial circumstances of each borrower.

To obtain a loan application, interested business owners should contact
SBA's Customer Service Center by calling 1-800-659-2955 (1-800-877-8339
for the hearing-impaired), Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.
and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. EDT. Business disaster loan
applications can also be downloaded from the SBA's website at
[www.sba.gov/services/disasterassistance](http://www.sba.gov/services/disasterassistance).
Completed applications should be mailed to: U.S. Small Business
Administration, Processing and Disbursement Center, 14925 Kingsport
Road, Fort Worth, TX 76155.

**The filing deadline for economic injury loan applications is [July 25,
2007.]{.underline}**
