**Prosecution Evidence Read into the Record during the Trial**

Witness- A Maryland loyalist

I think Thomas Stone is guilty of treason against the King. He knew that
the Declaration of Independence was a deliberate attempt to separate
America from her rightful rulers, Britain. King George III has always
looked out for America and protected her in times of need. Thomas Stone
should not have signed the document. He deserves being put in jail just
the same way all of the other men who signed the document should be put
into jail.

Dear Thomas, September 1776

Your help at Congress the last few months has been very valuable to us.
You have proven yourself to be a loyal and worthy patriot, dedicated to
the cause of liberty and freedom. Know that your name will forever hold
a dear place in the hearts of all true Americans. All they will have to
do is see your name written on that great and noble document, our
glorious Declaration of Independence!

Once again my friend it is an honor to have such a worthy gentleman on
our side. Maryland is indeed fortunate to have you as her son. Please
give your wife and children my very best wishes.

Your affectionate friend,

Benj. Franklin

Dear Uncle Daniel, June 1776

The congress is now moving steadily towards independence, a strong
majority of the colonies now are in favor of the move to break apart
from England. You know that at one time I wished for a peace that would
be upon terms of security and justice to America. But war or anything
would be preferable to a surrender of our rights.

We have heard some disturbing news that a large force of more than
30,000 British and foreign troops, mostly German fortune hunters known
as Hessians, are on their way toward America. I am hopeful and indeed
convinced that this force will not be strong enough for the evil purpose
of conquest for which they are designed.

I remain your loyal and affectionate friend,

Thos. Stone

Council of Safety, August 1776

Every man who ever fired a cannon or was present at building any kind of
fort has been taken up for the Continental army. We hear of the arrival
of many reinforcements from Britain, soon we will see a fight between
the two sides. Considerable reinforcements have been ordered and if they
arrive in time I hope our enemies will be stopped.

May God send victory to the arm lifted in support of righteousness,
virtue and freedom and crush the power that would trample on the rights
of mankind.

Your obedient servant,

Thos. Stone

## SBA Offers Disaster Assistance to Florida Businesses Affected By The Wildland Fires

**WASHINGTON --** Steven Preston, Administrator of the U.S. Small
Business Administration (SBA) announced that low-interest disaster loans
will be available to Florida businesses affected by the wildland fires
that occurred March 26 through May 31, 2007. Administrator Preston took
this action following a June 2007 letter from Florida Governor Charlie
Crist requesting a SBA disaster declaration.

"We look forward to working with the State of Florida making our loans
available to small businesses that sustained economic injury due to the
wildland fires," said Administrator Preston. "We will be swift in our
efforts to help the business owners of Bradford, Columbia, Hamilton and
Suwannee counties and neighboring counties of Alachua, Baker, Clay,
Gilchrist, Lafayette, Madison, Putnam and Union in the State of Florida;
Clinch, Echols and Lowndes in the State of Georgia with their working
capital needs."

Eligible small businesses may qualify for loans up to \$1.5 million.
Interest rates are available at 4 percent with loan terms up to 30
years. SBA determines eligibility for the loans based on the size and
type of the business and its financial resources. Loan amounts and terms
are set by SBA and based upon each applicant's financial condition.

"SBA can help these small businesses overcome their economic losses by
offering these working capital loans, but the help cannot start until
they submit an SBA Disaster Loan application to us," said Wilfredo
Gonzalez, SBA's North Florida District Director.

Applications and program information are available by calling the SBA's
Customer Service Center at\
1-800-659-2955 (1-800-877-8339 for the hearing-impaired), Monday through
Friday from 8 a.m. until\
9 p.m. and Saturday from 9 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. EDT. Business loan
applications can also be downloaded from the SBA 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.

Completed loan applications must be returned to SBA no later than
**[March 25, 2008]{.underline}.**

Re: Post-Newsweek Stations, San Antonio, LP

KSAT-TV, San Antonio, TX

Facility ID 53118

File No. BRCT-20060324ACN

Dear Licensee:

This letter refers to your license renewal application for station
KSAT-TV, San Antonio, TX.

In the Children's Television Act of 1990, Pub. L. No. 101-437, 104 Stat.
996-1000, *codified at* 47 U.S.C. Sections 303a, 303b and 394, Congress
directed the Commission to adopt rules, *inter alia,* limiting the
number of minutes of commercial matter that television stations may air
during children's programming, and to consider in its review of
television license renewals the extent to which the licensee has
complied with such commercial limits. Pursuant to this statutory
mandate, the Commission adopted Section 73.670 of the Rules, 47 C.F.R. §
73.670, which limits the amount of commercial matter which may be aired
during children's programming to 10.5 minutes per hour on weekends and
12 minutes per hour on weekdays. *Children's Television Programming*, 6
FCC Rcd 2111, 2118, *recon. granted in part,* 6 FCC Rcd 5093, 5098
(1991). The commercial limitations became effective on January 1, 1992.
*Children's Television Programming,* 6 FCC Rcd 5529, 5530 (1991).

On March 24, 2006, you filed the above-referenced license renewal
application for station KSAT-TV. In response to Section IV, Question 5
of that application, you certify that, during the previous license term,
station KSAT-TV failed to comply with the limitations on commercial
matter in children's programming specified in Section 73.670 of the
Commission's Rules. In Exhibit 19 and in a July 24, 2006 amendment to
that application, you indicate that station KSAT-TV exceeded the
children's television commercial limits by one minute and seventeen
seconds on June 10, 2006. You attribute this overage to inadvertence and
describe corrective actions taken to prevent future violations.

It appears from the information before us that the overage in question
was an isolated violation of the children's television commercial
limits. Such *de minimis* violation of Section 73.670 of the
Commission's Rules does not warrant further consideration in connection
with KSAT-TV's renewal application.

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, a copy of this Letter shall be sent by
First Class and Certified Mail, Return Receipt Requested to
Post-Newsweek Stations, San Antonio, LP at the address listed above and
to its counsel, William H. Fitz, Esquire, Covington & Burling, LLP, 1201
Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20004-2401.

Comments on Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OW-2007-0483

To the EPA,

This is about Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OW-2007-0483.

I have been boating for 40 years on the Chesapeake Bay and I feel that

if this motion is kept in place you will kill all boating, fishing, and

small commercial marine industries.

The normal person will not be able to adapt their boat to adhere to the

rules this motion will put in place. Fuel cost today is an issue strong

enough to keep people from boating. If the EPA costs are added to this,

then the private boater will just have to quit boating.

I think your motion is a good one for larger vessels that visit foreign

ports. Even if a yacht or private boat visits a foreign port, they

should be checked or flushed. I am all for protecting our waters from

foreign aquatic species.

Please remove all the private vessels that travel in US waters from this

motion. If that is too broad, then please remove all private vessels

under 65 feet in length from this motion.

Thank you,

Gary Derby

# **The Head Start Program**

The Head Start program has a long tradition of delivering a wide variety
of high quality services to foster the healthy development of low-income
children. This program works because it takes a comprehensive approach
to early childhood development \-- promoting the social, emotional,
physical, and cognitive development of children. Numerous studies
indicate that every dollar spent on Head Start saves taxpayers \$4 to
\$7 dollars in future education, criminal justice, and welfare expenses.
Over the course of its forty-year history, Head Start has enjoyed
bipartisan support and has been expanded to permit the annual enrollment
of 900,000 children.

Head Start was last reauthorized in 1998 for Fiscal Years (FY)
1999-2003, and after unsuccessful efforts to complete the
reauthorization process on schedule, the 109th Congress inherited the
task of reauthorizing the program. H.R. 2123, the School Readiness Act
of 2005, would reauthorize the Head Start program and contains
provisions to increase coordination between Head Start and other
entities providing early childhood services and to increase competition
for Head Start grants.

Over the course of its forty year history, Head Start services have been
provided by a variety of institutions including faith-based
organizations. Since 1981, the Head Start Act has included a
nondiscrimination provision that assured fundamental civil rights
protections for Head Start teachers and volunteers.

During House debate on H.R. 2123 on September 22, 2005, Rep. John
Boehner offered an amendment to allow faith-based Head Start providers
to discriminate in their hiring practices on the basis of religious
belief. While I support the important role faith-based organizations
play in providing Head Start services and other social services, I
believe it is imperative for organizations that receive federal funding
to avoid discriminatory hiring practices. As a result, I voted against
the amendment. The amendment was approved by a vote of 220-196, and the
bill was subsequently approved by a vote of 231-184. H.R. 2123 now
awaits action by the Senate.

A reauthorization bill (S. 1107) has been approved in committee on the
Senate side as well, with emphasis on improving coordination with other
early childhood programs, and increasing staff qualifications.

FCC ENFORCEMENT BUREAU AND VERIZON ENTER INTO CONSENT DECREE; VERIZON TO
PAY \$77,000 AND IMPLEMENT REMEDIAL ACTIONS TO HELP ENSURE COMPLIANCE
WITH LOCAL COMPETITION RULE

Washington, D.C. -- Today, the Enforcement Bureau of the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) announced that it has entered into a
Consent Decree with Verizon Communications, Inc. (Verizon), under which
Verizon will make a voluntary payment of \$77,000 to the United States
Treasury and will take certain remedial actions regarding its
collocation practices. Today's action by the Enforcement Bureau
terminates an investigation into Verizon's compliance with a Commission
rule requiring it to promptly notify competitors when a Verizon office
has run out of collocation space. The purpose of this rule is to ensure
that competitors do not waste time and resources applying for
collocation space where none exists.

Commission rules requires incumbent local exchange carriers to post
notice on publicly available Internet sites, and within 10 days, when
one of their premises has run out of collocation space. The Enforcement
Bureau initiated an investigation after an independent audit of
Verizon's compliance with the Commission's collocation rules raised
questions as to whether Verizon might have violated this posting
requirement.

Action by the Chief, Enforcement Bureau, September 10, 2001, Order (DA
01-2079).

[Safety/Health Thought]{.underline}

3/22/04

On September 16th 1961 President Kennedy signed into law, to designate
annually the third week of March as National Poison Prevention Week,
after which the Poison Prevention Week Council was organized to
coordinate this annual event. Congress intended this event as a means
for local communities to raise awareness of the dangers of unintentional
poisonings and to take such preventive measures as the dangers warrant.\
One of the highest risk age groups is a child 1 to 5 years old. Young
children may put anything in their mouths. This is part of learning.
Many household products can be poisonous if swallowed, if in contact
with the skin or eyes, or if inhaled. The following are some helpful
tips from the American Academy of Pediatrics.

SAFETY RULES

-   Keep harmful products locked up and out of your child\'s sight and
    reach.

-   Use safety latches or locks on drawers and cabinets where you keep
    dangerous items.

-   Take extra care during stressful times.

-   Call medicine by its correct name. You do not want to confuse the
    child by calling medicine candy.

-   Always replace the safety caps immediately after use.

-   Never leave alcohol within a child\'s reach.

-   Seek help if your child swallows a substance that is not food. Call
    the Poison Help Line at 800/222-1222 or your doctor. Don\'t make
    your child vomit.

-   Keep the following telephone numbers by your phone:

DOCTOR:
\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\
\
HOSPITAL:
\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

POISON HELP LINE: 800/222-1222

-   Keep products in their original containers. Never put non-food
    products in food or drink containers.

-   Read labels with care before using any product.

-   Teach children not to drink or eat anything unless an adult gives
    it.

-   Do not take medicine in front of small children. Children tend to
    copy adult behavior.

-   Check your home often for old medications and get rid of them by
    flushing them down the toilet.

-   Get rid of substances used for old-fashioned treatments such as oil
    of wintergreen, boric acid, ammoniated mercury, oil of turpentine,
    and camphorated oil.

-   There is more of a danger of poisoning when you are away from home,
    especially at a grand parent\'s home.

The issue of Nontank Vessel Response Plans should be a source of
embarrassment to the Coast Guard. As of yet, they have not published a
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking. Of interest, the Coast Guard says that it
will now enforce a law that was passed a long time ago. This same law
requires the promulgation of regulations which has not yet occurred. It
does not take a very long stretch of imagination to believe that if the
COSCO BASIN incident had not occurred than a rulemaking may not have
happened for years if ever.

A more important issue is the Coast Guard's continued misuse of
Navigation and Vessel Inspection Circulars (NVIC).

The Coast Guard in paragraph 6 of NAVIGATION AND VESSEL INSPECTION
CIRCULAR NO. 01-05, CHANGE -- 1 entitled "Subj: CH-1 TO NVIC 01-05,
INTERIM GUIDANCE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT AND REVIEW OF RESPONSE PLANS FOR
NONTANK VESSELS" states :

> "6. [DISCLAIMER.]{.underline}

a.  This document is intended only to provide guidance to industry for
    preparing response plans. While the guidance contained in this
    document may assist the industry, public, Coast Guard, and other
    Federal and State regulators in applying statutory and regulatory
    requirements, the guidance is not a substitute for applicable legal
    requirements nor is it a regulation itself. Thus, it is not intended
    to, nor does it impose legally-binding requirements on any party,
    the Coast Guard, other Federal agencies, the States, local
    government, tribes, or the regulated community.

b.  This document does not bind the Coast Guard in any way in developing
    regulations. A response plan that complies with this guidance may
    ultimately not comply with the regulations, once issued. In which
    case, the plan may require revision by the vessel owner or operator
    to comply with the regulations."

Far too often NAVIC's have become a very poor substitute for Federal
Regulations. Worst still, Coast Guard personnel frequently use NAVIC's
as if they are requirements instead of guidance.

Without a doubt, the Coast Guard should enforce federal laws. Also, they
should cause regulations to be promulgated in a timely fashion. Finally,
they should stop misusing NAVIC's.

**SUMMARY FOR**

**[MAINTENANCE HISTORICAL WORKLOAD DATA]{.underline}**

Average total Trouble Calls, associated workforce, and material costs
for the last three years are as follows:

  ------------------------------------------- ---------------------------
  Trouble Calls                               24,067

  Workhours                                   186,966

  Material Costs                              \$1,009,317
  ------------------------------------------- ---------------------------

Of this total, the average emergency trouble calls recorded for the last
four years were 28. The average urgent trouble calls recorded for the
last four years were 722. Note: all maintenance work was not coordinated
through the Trouble Call desk but instead was identified directly to
area maintenance teams for resolution before becoming an emergency or
urgent trouble call. Due to this workforce arrangement, emergency and
urgent trouble calls have trended downward over the past four years.
Therefore, a four year average has been provided to be more
representative of potential future work.

Included in the trouble call totals above: For FY96, support was
provided for 888 calls to deactivate and reactivate fire surveillance
systems to support maintenance, construction, or building occupant
requirements; 110 fire alarm responses; and 160 oxygen/ combustible gas
alarm responses.

and Rheumatism Branch (ARB) of the National Institute of Arthritis and
Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) of the National Institutes of
Health (NIH), DHHS. Dr. Myerowitz is a Professor of Biology at St.
Mary's College who will be on sabbatical for the Fall semester of 2006
but will begin work the close of the Spring semester of 2006.

Dr. Myerowitz will bring her expertise in lysosomal biology and the
lysosomal storage diseases, expecially Tay-Sachs Disease, to work on the
problem of treating the muscle glycogen storage disease, Pompe Syndrome.
She will particularly work on strategies to deliver recombinant acid
-glucosidase to the sites of glycogen storage in muscle by studying the
reasons for the abnormal trafficking of intracellular vesides in that
disease.

NIAMS will pay her subsistence allowance of \$154.00 per day from June
1, 2006 -- December 31, 2006.
