*for the*

*Thirtymile Fire Staff Ride*

The Thirtymile Fire site is located in the Chewuch River drainage of the
Methow Valley Ranger District, Okanogan and Wenatchee National Forests.
The site is 30 miles from the community of Winthrop and approximately
125 miles from Wenatchee, Washington. Pangborn Airport, located in East
Wenatchee is the closest airport providing daily airline flights. The
key geographic locating feature is the Chewuch River just west of
Winthrop, Washington. Many convenient lodging options are available in
the nearby resort town of Winthrop, Washington. Because of limited
parking space at some of the staff ride stand locations it is
recommended that staff ride groups arrange for either bus or van
transportation. The North Cascade Smokejumper Base located on Eastside
Road between the communities of Twisp and Winthrop provides a good
location for groups to begin and end a staff ride event.

**[North Cascade Smokejumper Base to Stand 1]{.underline}**

**Travel north on Eastside Road to Winthrop, Washington 4.7 miles**

**Travel to Westside of Winthrop to West Chewuch Road**

**Travel 7.5 miles on West Chewuch Road, at this point the road
designation will change to Forest Service Road \# 51**

**CLARIFICATIONS: Specific Information on Aspect: Off-road equipment.**

-   Off-road equipment for port authority operations includes all
    cargo-handling equipment, including: rubber tire gantry cranes, yard
    hustler/handlers, forklifts, and pick-up trucks. A list of this
    equipment will be provided at the EPA site visit scheduled 7/13/05.

-   The table above identifies the corrections to the baselines in prior
    year reports. Because of new technology and emission calculations,
    the normalizing factor should be adjusted. The port authority has
    achieved its air quality goals of reducing NOx emissions by 25%.
    Although the vessel moves increase, through the use of the
    alternative fuels, the NOx emissions has shown a steady decrease
    over time.
**Teri -- gang-related homicide**

My son Anthony Dyer, who was 16 years old, had, um, got . . . had joined
a gang. Got in or about, and the gang that he was in, they murdered him.
My son hadn't come home, and it was on my pay week, and he hadn't come
home for 2 days That Friday, I was gonna call the television station and
ask them to air my son on the TV, but that evening I heard about a body
that had been found, and I didn't feel comfortable with that. I went
down to look at the body, and what I saw . . . it didn't look like my
son because his face was swollen; he was frozen. It was a bitter cold.
The only way that I really identified him was by his fingernail biting.
And it was hard . . . it was very hard to deal with that.

They ended up beating him. Then they wrapped him up and put him in a
towel and put him in a trash can. So the leader of the gang told them to
"69" him, which meant kill him. So one of the guys went down the hill
and kicked him in his head until he wasn't breathing anymore, and he
took his gym shoes off that I had just bought him. When then finally
picked him up, the guy that had kicked him in his head, he had his shoes
on.

I didn't even know my son was in a gang until after he passed. He was
only 16. To me, he was still a baby. I had a memory loss. People that I
had known for years I couldn't remember who they were. I couldn't go
back to work for at least 3 weeks. You know, people would question me
about different things, and I didn't want to deal with it. I was crying
all the time. It's just your whole life, you know, you're just turned
upside down.

None of them showed any remorse. The next year, three of them will get
out. They plea bargained. Some of them got 7 years. One of the girls
that cleaned up the blood at the apartment that he had got beat up at,
she's out. The leader of the gang got 15--30. The one guy that had his
gym shoes only got 12 years---no, he got 16 years. And the guy that took
his clothes off and burned them, he got 12 years. So they all got time.

If you committed a crime and just totally shut out and you're going on
with your life, well, that family, they're not going on 'cause theirs is
forever changed. It's\--it will never, never be the same. And it hurts.
Because I know my son wanted to live, and it wasn't fair. It was not
fair.

Subject: AMT

The Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) should be eliminated.

I invest in Real Estate and have no idea how to determine the after tax
return on investment because there are to tax systems. First, there is
the regular tax, This system is fine. It provides a system for
depreciation and for capital gains treatment. It also allows for 1031
like kind

exchanges which allow the investor to defer taxes,

AMT is a second system that even my CPA can\'t project the tax impact of
any buy or sell decisions that I try to make. My CPA can only run a
computer program and nobody can explain it to me. I am totally lost
under AMT and it

discourages me from making business decisions.

For example, the AMT has a different depreciation life and subsequently
causes a different cost basis. (i.e. the cost basis is the original
purchase price less the accumulated depreciation.) Upon doing a 1031
like kind exchange, the replacement property assumes the cost basis of
the relinquished property plus any additional investment made on the
replacement property. However, with AMT and regular tax, I find it
impossible to figure

my cost basis.

The AMT is an unfair tax and is way too complicated.

Any program to gradually eliminate this tax will cause further
complications and business decisions to invest will still be
discouraged. The only way to stimulate business investments is to
eliminate AMT completely and

immediately!

\
ACTION: Announcement of availability of funds and request for
applications to carry out cooperative agreement awards to train retired
persons to serve in their communities as volunteer expert resources and
educators in combating health care waste, fraud, and abuse.

SUMMARY: The Administration on Aging (AoA) announces that under this
program announcement it will hold a competition for \`\`Senior Medicare
Patrol Projects\'\' that demonstrate effective ways of utilizing retired
persons as volunteer expert resources and educators in community efforts
to combat health care waste, fraud and abuse. The deadline date for the
submission of applications is March 31, 1999.    Public and/or nonprofit
agencies, organizations, and institutions are eligible to apply under
this program announcement. However, consistent with the terms of Senate
Report 105-300, which accompany the Omnibus Consolidated Appropriations
Act of 1999 (Pub.L.105-277), preference will be given in the making of
cooperative agreement awards to projects that will be carried out by
consortia headed by community-based public or non-profit agencies or
organizations. In addition, the AoA is currently funding \`\`Senior
Medicare Patrol Projects\'\' in twelve states\--California, Hawaii,
Illinois, Iowa, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New York,
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin. No further awards will be
made in these states.     Application kits are available by writing to
the Department of Health and Human Services, Administration on Aging,

BILLING CODE 4150-40-P
## Version history:

-   Version 1.0.0 Posted October, 2000

-   Version 1.0.1, February 2, 2001.

    i.  Added the best-fit equation "wt%H2O = s\*p\^beta", with values
        for s and beta shown on the water solubility page (suggested by
        Giovanni Macedonio)

    ii. Added a label to the water solubility page giving the water
        solubility at the specified pressure.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Version 1.0.2

i.  Modified Kilauean melt chemistry to conform to Kilauea standard
    BHV01, as suggested by Carl Thornber. Also revised the "more info"
    page to explain the source for Kilauean chemistry. (February 8,
    2001)

ii. Changed crystallinity of Mount St. Helens melt to 40%, and basal
    pressure for Mount St. Helens magma to 220 MPa, as reported by
    Rutherford et al., (1985). Also revised the "More info" page to
    explain the source for Mount St. Helens parameters. (February 8,
    2001)

iii. Corrected a glitch in calculations of sound speed and bulk modulus
     of the mixture. Old sound speeds were isothermal (oops) and bulk
     modulus calculations weighted the phases by their mass fractions
     rather than by volume fractions. (February 22, 2001)

iv. Found and corrected a bug in the dynamic link libraries that
    calculate thermodynamic properties and solubility. The bug was
    calculating the average molecular weight of the melt that were on
    the order of 1% off from the true values. This error in turn
    produced slightly erroneous values of all thermodynamic parameters,
    because those parameters were converted from per-mole to
    per-kilogram values. The bug was fixed in the files "thermo.dll",
    "solub.dll", and the main conduit program, "confort.exe". (February
    22, 2001)

-   Version 1.0.3

    i.  Added an "options" menu to the conduit page that allows users to
        specify which fragmentation criterion to use. If users choose a
        threshold volume fraction gas, they can specify the exact volume
        fraction gas to use as the threshold.

-   Version 1.0.4

    i.  Formatted input values written ton "conin.txt" so that decimal
        points are used, even on European operating systems.

-   Version 1.0.5 (October 2006)

    i.  Corrected a miscalculation in the bulk modulus of the melt,
        shown in the Thermodynamic Properties window. Earlier versions
        of the model showed this property to be an order of magnitude
        too large.

-   Version 1.0.5b (April, 2008)

    i.  The last posting of this version left out a critical file,
        dfortt.dll, which caused the program to crash when thermodynamic
        functions were called. This posting fixes the problem.

Logistical support for Exchange Scientist from Israel:

An Exchange Scientist from Israel has been approved under the Short-Term
Scientist Exchange Program to visit the NCI. The visit is expected to
begin on or about August 1, 2007 and end on or about December 31, 2007.

The Contractor is to provide a monthly subsistence check in the amount
of \$4,000 directly to the Exchange Scientist, either at the local home
address (to be provided upon arrival into the U.S.) or the work address
(to be provided on work order).

No checks are to be sent until passport/visa documents have been
reviewed by the NIH Division of International Services. Project Office
will prepare a work order with specific instructions and provide
Contractor with all pertinent information such as approved dates of
visit, etc.

Monthly checks are to be mailed via regular mail; unless otherwise noted
on the work order.

Please just make an \"Across The Board

Tax\" without deductions. Require every

person and business to pay the same

percentage (I.e. 10%).

Please stop robbing the poor by allowing exemptions for the rich and
robbing the

small business and allowing exemptions for large business. We are

spending

to much money running circles around every deduction and spending to
much on

processing returns and auditing exemptions. We could Save a lot of

American

Homes and Families on the money wasted by the IRS.

The widows meager penny should provide her the same government
protection

and benefits as the noble mans dollars. Require every unemployed person

to

provide a Social Service some where even if it means sweeping a street.
An

unemployed persons time should be taxable (I.e. 1 hr. for each 10 hr.
day).

Please stop playing with Social Security.

If you want to set up a matching support

investment (I.e. similar to the GI Bill

education fund) then fine but leave Social

Security alone.

The biological use of chemical energy sources apparently pre-dates the
use of light, and forms the foundation of all subsurface and
high-temperature ecosystems. Chemical energy sources exist because
planetary differentiation places materials formed at high temperatures
at the outer portions of planetary bodies where they are out of
oxidation/reduction (redox) equilibrium with their cooler surroundings.
Differentiation is driven by the dissipation of energy in the form of
heat, allows materials to become segregated, and results in the
development of disequilibrium states permitted by the steep temperature
dependence of the rates of redox reactions. Redox disequilibria are
established below 1000°C, depending on the chemical system, and redox
reaction rates become so slow at or near planetary surfaces that their
duration converges on geologic time. This generates the chemical energy
supplies used by life, which catalyzes favorable but sluggish reactions
to drive metabolism, lowering the energy state of the total system. It
follows that life continues the release of energy that initiated
planetary differentiation but was stalled by sluggish redox reactions.
In this sense, life is inevitable as it catalyzes energy-releasing
reactions that would not proceed rapidly in its absence. Therefore,
understanding the emergence of life relies on our ability to
conceptualize the initiation of catalysis in systems that are rich in
redox disequilibria. Processes that focus and juxtapose redox
disequilibria become crucibles for the emergence of catalysis and life.
In particular, the flow of gases and aqueous fluids through diverse
products of differentiation may engender the necessary gradients.
**§1.963a Waiver; erroneous payments of pay and allowances.**

\(a\) The provisions applicable to VA (including refunds) concerning
waiver actions relating to erroneous payments to VA employees of pay and
allowances, and travel, transportation, and relocation expenses and
allowances, are set forth in 5 U.S.C. 5584. The members of Committees on
Waivers and Compromises assigned to waiver actions under §1.955 of this
part are delegated all authority granted the Secretary under 5 U.S.C.
5584 to deny waiver or to grant waiver in whole or in part of any debt
regardless of the amount of the indebtedness. Committee members also
have exclusive authority to consider and render a decision on the appeal
of a waiver denial or the granting of a partial waiver. However, the
Chairperson of the Committee must assign the appeal to a different
Committee member or members than the member or members who made the
original decision that is now the subject of the appeal. The following
are the only provisions of §§1.955 through 1.970 of this part applicable
to waiver actions concerning erroneous payments of pay and allowances,
and travel, transportation, and relocation expenses and allowances,
under 5 U.S.C. 5584: §§1.955(a) through (e)(2), 1.956(a)(introductory
text) and (a)(3), 1.959, 1.960, 1.963a, and 1.967(c).

\(b\) Waiver may be granted under this section and 5 U.S.C. 5584 when
collection would be against equity and good conscience and not in the
best interest of the United States. Generally, these criteria will be
met by a finding that the erroneous payment occurred through
administrative error and that there is no indication of fraud,
misrepresentation, fault, or lack of good faith on the part of the
employee or other person having an interest in obtaining a waiver of the
claim, and waiver would not otherwise be inequitable. Generally, waiver
is precluded when an employee receives a significant unexplained
increase in pay or allowances, or otherwise knows, or reasonably should
know, that an erroneous payment has occurred, and fails to make
inquiries or bring the matter to the attention of the appropriate
officials. Waiver under this standard will depend upon the facts
existing in each case.

\(c\) An application for waiver must be received within 3 years
immediately following the date on which the erroneous payment was
discovered. (Authority: 5 U.S.C. 5584; 38 U.S.C. 501).

Sun-Solar Roadmap Workshop

Poster Summary

WIND Spacecraft

Apart from its role as a highly accurate interplanetary solar wind
monitor, the WIND spacecraft should play a key role as part of the
Virtual Heliospheric Observatory (consisting of STEREO A/B, WIND, ACE,
and Ulysses) now being formulated. The WIND spacecraft and its
instruments are in excellent condition and continue to provide important
data on CMEs, energetic particles, and in-situ interplanetary
conditions.

-   With its unique capability to provide continuous radio tracking of
    CMEs from the Sun to Earth, WIND at L1 forms an essential element of
    STEREO: to provide a third vantage point for the tracking of solar
    ejecta, and to provide redundancy should one of the STEREO
    spacecraft not be fully functional.

-   The energetic particle instrument on WIND has proven its ability to
    measure the more intense and dangerous solar energetic particle
    events when other spacecraft instruments saturated.

-   In addition, the WIND solar wind plasma instrument has made and
    continues to make accurate measurements of in situ densities under
    ALL conditions in the solar wind.

In a period of fiscal restraint, it is especially important that all of
the available assets be fully used to provide the maximum resources for
new initiatives, and that WIND\'s unique and important capabilities be
recognized in the Roadmap.
**SYMPTOMATIC MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES FOR NON-HEALTH STAFF**

**KNOCKED-OUT TOOTH**

Authorized non-health staff may manage lacerations as follows:

1.  Locate the tooth.

2.  Tell the student to pick it up carefully by the top (the crown), not
    by the delicate roots.

3.  Tell the student to gently rinse off the tooth and place it in his
    cheek, or if it is front tooth, place it in the socket. If the
    student is worried about swallowing the tooth, you can advise the
    student to put the tooth in a glass of milk. The last choices of
    media are water or in a damp towel.

# WHEN TO CONTACT THE ON-CALL HEALTH AND WELLNESS STAFF

-   Contact the on-call health and wellness staff as soon as possible.
    If the student and tooth can get to a dentist within 30 minutes,
    there is reportedly a 90 percent chance that the tooth can be
    reimplanted.
[BAX2: A POTENT DEATH MOLECULE FOR CANCER THERAPY]{.underline}, [A.
Bunce]{.underline}, B. Haferkamp, J. Xiang\*, Illinois Institute of
Technology, Department of Biological, Chemical, and Physical Sciences,
Chicago, IL 60616, [xiang@iit.edu]{.underline}

It is well known that Bax (Bax) is a pro-death protein and a tumor
suppressor gene. Bax2 is a new isoform isolated from a prostate cancer
cell line, which has an exon 2 deletion from the most common form of
Bax. However, it is not clear whether Bax2 still has its pro-death
ability. This function was determined by engineering a genetic construct
consisting of the Bax2 gene fused with a gene encoding green
fluorescence protein (GFP), which was delivered to prostate cancer
cells. A comparison of the function of Bax2 and Bax was then analyzed. A
hemacytometer was used to count live and dead cells two days after
transfection in order to calculate the death rate. Results suggest that
the Bax2 isoform more potently induces cell death then Bax. Bax2 also
co-localizes to the mitochondria, which was determined by
immunostaining. This suggests that both Bax and Bax2 have the same
cellular target. Hopefully, an understanding of this gene will lead to
advances in the area of cancer treatments.
**Silicon Micromachines for Science and Technology**

*Nanofabrication Research Lab, Bell Labs, Lucent Technologies*

Silicon micromachines are a developing field that is beginning to impact
almost every area of science and technology. In areas as diverse as
automotive, aerospace, entertainment, wireless communications,
chemistry, lightwave systems and basic science, micromachines or MEMS
(Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems) are becoming the solution of choice
for solving many problems. The ability to build devices that are small,
cheap, fast and can be integrated with on chip electronics is proving to
be crucial in many areas of both science and technology. In this talk I
will present a short introduction to MEMS, followed by a description of
some applications developed in our lab. I will also describe MEMS based
high sensitivity sensors we are currently using in basic physics
experiments.
**§3.321 General rating considerations.**

\(a\) *Use of rating schedule.* The 1945 Schedule for Rating
Disabilities will be used for evaluating the degree of disabilities in
claims for disability compensation, disability and death pension, and in
eligibility determinations. The provisions contained in the rating
schedule will represent as far as can practicably be determined, the
average impairment in earning capacity in civil occupations resulting
from disability. (Authority: 38 U.S.C. 1155)

\(b\) *Exceptional cases*:

\(1\) *Compensation.* Ratings shall be based as far as practicable, upon
the average impairments of earning capacity with the additional proviso
that the Secretary shall from time to time readjust this schedule of
ratings in accordance with experience. To accord justice, therefore, to
the exceptional case where the schedular evaluations are found to be
inadequate, the Under Secretary for Benefits or the Director,
Compensation and Pension Service, upon field station submission, is
authorized to approve on the basis of the criteria set forth in this
paragraph an extra-schedular evaluation commensurate with the average
earning capacity impairment due exclusively to the service-connected
disability or disabilities. The governing norm in these exceptional
cases is: A finding that the case presents such an exceptional or
unusual disability picture with such related factors as marked
interference with employment or frequent periods of hospitalization as
to render impractical the application of the regular schedular
standards.

\(2\) *Pension.* Where the evidence of record establishes that an
applicant for pension who is basically eligible fails to meet the
disability requirements based on the percentage standards of the rating
schedule but is found to be unemployable by reason of his or her
disability(ies), age, occupational background and other related factors,
the following are authorized to approve on an extra-schedular basis a
permanent and total disability rating for pension purposes: the Veterans
Service Center Manager, or where regular schedular standards are met as
of the date of the rating decision, the rating board.

\(3\) *Effective dates.* The effective date of these extra-schedular
evaluations granting or increasing benefits will be in accordance with
§3.400(b)(1) and (2) as to original and reopened claims and in
accordance with §3.400(o) in claims for increased benefits.

\(c\) *Advisory opinion.* Cases in which application of the schedule is
not understood or the propriety of an extra-schedular rating is
questionable may be submitted to Central Office for advisory opinion.

**[[Objectives:]{.underline}]{.smallcaps}**

1.  Participants will limit their child\'s TV viewing to 1 hour per day.

**[[Materials:]{.underline}]{.smallcaps}**

-   Participant\'s chart

-   Fit WIC Tracking Sheet

**[[Discussion:]{.underline}]{.smallcaps}**

**Transparency 1:**

**How are these two pictures different?**

*Listen to participant responses, facilitate discussion. Points to
reinforce include: 1) In the gardening picture, the child is learning
about the world. She is learning by touching seeing, and doing how
things grow, how to plant a flower, etc. She is interacting with her
parent. This helps build social skills. She is using her muscles and
developing motor skills.*

**Transparency 2:**

> **An active child is a healthy child.**

Active kids may sleep better and are more likely to keep a healthy
weight. Kids that learn how to be active as kids are more likely to be
active adults.

**Transparency 3:**

> **Limit television viewing to 1 hour each day.**

Children are *naturally* active. It helps them grow and be healthy. Too
much TV can sometimes teach kids not to be active. TV does not teach
children how to use their muscles. Kids that watch a lot of TV are more
likely to be overweight than active kids. It is important to plan at
least 30 minutes of active play each day.

Let\'s look at some easy ways to help kids be active.

**Transparency 4:**

**Dance to music**

Play your child\'s favorite music and dance around the house with them.

**Transparency 5:**

> **Toss soft balls or bean bags into a bowl, empty trash can or laundry
> basket.**

**Transparency 6:**

> **Create an obstacle course. Crawl under tables, jump over pillows,
> walk between chairs, etc.**

## [PRESENTATION]{.underline}

## *SNS Ring System*

## - Y. Y. Lee

YY presented a review of the major design issues associated with the SNS
Ring System. Topics covered include:

-   **Main Purpose** -The main purpose of the ring is to *accumulate a
    high power proton beam* with high proton density by folding a
    relatively low power beam around the ring many times. This folding
    effectively transforms the low power beam, generated over
    approximately one millisecond, into a high power (2 megawatt) beam
    that will be delivered to the target as a 0.5 μs long pulse

-   **Beam Requirements --** *Low beam loss* is necessary in order to
    maintain low radiation levels within the facility, thereby making it
    feasible to perform hands-on maintenance during operation. Strict
    *proton distribution* requirements at target will be accomplished by
    *injection painting* techniques.

-   **Ring Structure** - The ring is composed of four similar sections
    (four-fold symmetry), each of which has both straight and arc
    sections. Each of the *straight sections* performs one of four
    different functions: injection, collimation, RF coupling, and
    extraction. The *arc sections* correct dispersion and chromatic
    aberration.

-   **Injection Losses** -- Sources of injection losses include *excited
    state H^0^* emerging from the foil, *scattering* and *linac beam
    missing the foil*. A related issue is the need for controlled
    dumping of stripped electrons, which represent approximately 2 Kw.

-   **Injection Layout** -- Injection takes place in one of the straight
    sections fitted with a *chicane* consisting of three dipole magnets,
    creating a fixed orbit bump. Two sets of *kicker* (pulsed dipole)
    magnets, one before and one after the chicane, move the equilibrium
    orbit of the circulating beam to create a dynamic bump. This is used
    to control the stacking of beam into the ring, known as *phase space
    painting.*

-   **Phase Space Painting** is used to create an optimal phase space
    distribution in the ring from the linac beam. Main objectives are to
    *control loss* due to space charge, *reduce foil hits* by
    circulating beam and to satisfy *distribution requirements* at the
    target. Two major painting schemes are *correlated painting* and
    *anti-correlated painting*.

There is great interest in optimizing all the steps of the ethanol
production and the development of reliable mathematical models is
essential for the effective design and high performance operation of
bioprocesses. Phenomenological models can be developed considering
industrial conditions, but changes happen normally in an industrial unit
invalidating the prediction of the model in different conditions. Taking
this into consideration the objective of this work is to develop a model
for an alcoholic fermentation process with multiples stages in a simple
and rapid way. A hybrid neural model was developed, combining mass and
energy balances with neural networks, the functional link networks
(FLN), which describe the process kinetics. The obtained structure has a
good non-linear approximation capability and the estimation of the
network weights is linear. As the proposed model is able to adjust to
kinetic and environmental changes, it is suitable for use in the
development of optimization strategies for the bioreactors. Thus, the
training is fast, require low computational effort and convergence is
guaranteed. The simple structure of the FLNs allows the easy and rapid
estimation of network weights and, consequently, the use of the hybrid
model in an adaptive form to be used for posterior optimization and
control applications.
