# CONSTRUCTION STATUS REPORT

West Fork Bitterroot River Road (along Painted Rocks Lake)

MT PFH 66-1(3)

**[Accomplishments through August 9, 2002:]{.underline}**

Pumco, Inc. brought in more equipment this week consisting of another
excavator, a scraper, a dump truck, and a loader. Pumco continued
clearing debris from the roadway area and pioneering cut slopes. Water
underdrain and electrical conduit excavation in the Slate Creek area was
started on Wednesday. Cement barriers were placed on the north end of
the project narrowing the road there to one lane traffic; southbound
traffic must yield to northbound traffic.

**[Future activities planned for the project:]{.underline}**

Pumco continues drainage excavation and pioneering next week. They will
begin working on gabion rock baskets on the north end of the project
within the cement barriers.

As a reminder, road closures are to be expected: 8am-10am, 12pm-2pm, and
4pm-5:30pm weekdays (except Friday has only 8am-10am and 12pm-2pm
closure periods). During all other times between 7am-5:30 pm
Monday-Thursday and 7am-3:30pm Friday, flaggers will let cars through as
much as they can, but expect up to 15-minute delays.

**[Other news of note:]{.underline}**

According to a Forest Service biologist, the peregrine falcon fledgling
near Painted Rocks Dam is now flying around the nest area.

Re: MB Docket No. 05-317

Dear Mr. Arden:

By letter dated October 10, 2008, MMK License LLC "(Max Media"),
licensee of WNKY-DT, Bowling Green, Kentucky requested an extension of
its waiver of Section 339(a)(2)(D) of the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, to prohibit satellite subscribers from receiving or conducting
a digital signal strength test of WNKY-DT's digital signal.[^1] The
Commission granted the original digital signal testing waiver based on
the fact that no satellite carrier is providing the retransmission of
the analog signals of local broadcast network stations in WNKY's
market.[^2] The Commission has granted the licensee two six-month
extensions.[^3] In its most recent extension request, the licensee
states that the situation remains unchanged and no satellite carrier is
offering local-into-local satellite service in WNKY's market.[^4]

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that Max Media's request IS GRANTED and the
first permissible date for digital testing for WNKY-DT IS EXTENDED six
months, from December 15, 2008 until June 15, 2009. If a further
extension is needed, a request must be filed by April 15, 2009.

Sincerely,

Barbara A. Kreisman

House Judiciary Committee Sends Weldon Cloning Ban

**to the House Floor**

# 

# Committee Favorably Reports Bill; Stripping Amendments Fail

Washington, D.C. - The House Judiciary Committee voted 18 - 11 in
reporting The Human Cloning Prohibition Act (HR 2505) favorably out of
committee, thereby allowing the bill to proceed to the House floor for a
final vote.

"I am very pleased with the committee's action today," remarked U.S.
Rep. Dave Weldon, M.D.. "I hope to see action on the House floor soon."

HR 2505 bans human cloning which is the asexual reproduction of a new
human organism that is genetically virtually identical to another human
being. Those convicted under this bill would face penalties such as ten
years in federal prison and \$1 million fine or twice the amount that
the guilty parties gained through their illegal activities.

The bill also recommends Presidential commission that will conduct a
study for the ongoing national discussion about cloning

The bill does not restrict areas of scientific research including but
not limited to research in the use of nuclear transfer or other cloning
techniques to produce molecules, DNA, cells other than human embryos,
tissues, organs, plants, or animals other than humans. It also does not
ban natural or artificially induced twinning of an embryo prior to
implantation (IVF).

> For many years, the Davis Joint Unified School District has chosen to

Research Area: Computing and Computational Science

ORNL's SNS (Spallation Neutron Source), upon completion, will be the
leading neutron research facility in the world. The SNS is scheduled for
completion in 2006, and will be open to researchers, scientists, and
engineers from universities, industries, and other government
laboratories throughout the United States and the world. In order to be
readily available to such a wide user community, the SNS requires an
extensive online User Workspace. Members of ORNL's Computer Science and
Mathematics Division, with whom I am currently working, are designing
the desired workspace. The final User Workspace will be able to store
and allow visualization of scientific data, document publications and
completed research, and provide additional computer interface services
for the users. The goal is to complete the User Workspace (using
JavaScript) before the SNS's scheduled completion date, so the workspace
will be fully operational and available to users for research and
documentation purposes.

Sore nipples

Sore nipples don't last long, but it can feel like forever.

## 

**When:** 0-3 days

**What:** The baby chomps, clenches, and bruises nipple.

**Treatment:**

-   Let your baby suck on your clean finger. Interrupt any
    chomping/chewing. Nudge your baby's chin down so you don't feel any
    gums. Slide your baby to the breast when the sucking becomes smooth.

-   If the pain goes away at the beginning of the feeding, you will feel
    better in a day or two.

-   If the pain stays, unhook and re-latch - chin down, lips out, no
    gums biting the nipple.

-   Don't give up, the pain will go away in 1-2 days.

-   It is ok to use Lansinoh -- but don't use it if you are allergic to
    wool.

-   Tea bags can be soothing. Breastmilk/colostrum spread on the nipple
    area can help too.

**When:** 0-2 weeks

**What:** Cracked, bleeding, nipples; crescent moon bruises

**Treatment:**

-   If clothes/pads stick, get them wet. Gently peel off.

-   Start each feeding with the easier side.

-   Be that baby is latching well (lips out, chin down)

-   Check the baby's position. Try different positions.

-   Avoid pressing breast or nipple. It's a tug of war. Your baby will
    let go if it is hard to breath.

-   Let the nipples air dry after feeding.

-   Try Lansinoh. It does not need to be washed off. Tea bags can help,
    too. Breastmilk & colostrum have antibodies - spread it on the
    nipple area to speed up healing.

-   Hang in there, the nipple(s) will heal in 1-2 days.

**When:** anytime

**What:** Cracking around base of nipple. Nipple can be red/raw and very
painful. Your baby might have trouble eating and have white patches in
their mouth. It is probably ***thrush.***

**Treatment:**

-   Go to the clinic. *Both* mom and baby need medicine.

-   Use HOT soapy water on pacifiers, plastic nipples, bras

-   Thrush can be sneaky. Use the medicine. Wash anything that touches
    your nipples/your baby's mouth.

Don't give up. You will feel better soon, honest.

[Notification Procedures and Management Actions for Delinquent Travel
Cards]{.underline}

1.  36 days after the due date (card suspended), MS sends a notice to
    the employee's first level manager with a cc to the second level
    manager. Notice explains that card can no longer be used for
    official travel unless overdue balance paid.

**Management Action:** Employee is given an oral admonishment and
directed to pay overdue balance immediately. Oral admonishment must be
confirmed in writing.

2.  As soon as an account is 60 days past due, MS sends a notice to
    second and third level managers. The note will inform them that the
    card will be cancelled at 101 days past due and provide that date.

**Management Action:** Management reminds employee of oral admonishment
and direction to pay. Employee is warned that failure to pay as directed
will result in disciplinary action. Reminder and warning documented in
employee's drop file.

3.  After 101 days, e-mail notice of cancellation is sent to function
    head. Notice explains memorandum and documentation that employee
    must provide to CitiBank to have them consider reinstatement. Copy
    of cancellation notice also provided to Director of Security, BPD ER
    and Counsel.

**Management Action:** Suspension and warning that cancellation of card
does not remove employee's obligation to pay balance due.

4.  MS follows up 60 days after cancellation to determine if overdue
    balance paid. Results of follow-up sent to function head with copies
    to Director of Security, BPD ER and Counsel.

**Management Action:** If overdue balance still not paid, removal.

### In plants over 100 genes are involved in cell-wall biosynthesis. Several genes encoding enzymes in the pathways for production of the monosaccharide constituents of the cell-wall matrix have recently been cloned, paving the way for manipulating polysaccharide composition and concentration. Pectin is a complex polysaccharide consisting of galacturonic acid, galactose, arabinose, and rhamnose. With the goal of increasing the amount of pectin in alfalfa stems, we produced transgenic alfalfa plants expressing a soybean UDP-glucose dehydrogenase cDNA under the control of two promoters active in vascular tissues. In initial greenhouse experiments, enzyme activity in transgenic lines was up to 7-fold greater than in untransformed plants; however, field-grown transgenic plants had only up to 1.9-fold more activity than the control. Cell-wall polysaccharide content was lower and Klason lignin content was higher in transgenics compared to the untransformed control. No significant increase in uronic acids was observed in any line. Two neutral sugars, xylose and arabinose, which are downstream of uronic acid synthesis increased 7 to 24% in most transgenic lines compared to the control and mannose concentration decreased slightly in most lines. Increasing pectin content may require over-expression of more than one gene or redirection of glucose from cellulose synthesis.

**NOTICE OF UNLICENSED OPERATION**

Case Number: EB-08-DV-0337

Document Number: W200932800001

The Denver Office received information that an unlicensed radio operator
was allegedly transmitting on 156.800 MHz (Marine safety band, channel
16) in Huron, South Dakota. On October 3, 2008, an agent from this
office confirmed by direction finding techniques that radio signals on
frequency 156.800 MHz were emanating from the farm near 213^th^ Street &
392^nd^ Avenue in Huron, South Dakota. On October 4, 2008, the same
radio transmission was detected again near 204^th^ Street and 412^th^
Avenue in Huron, South Dakota. The radio operator identified himself to
the agent as Jeremy Wallman. The Commission\'s records show that no
license was issued to Jeremy Wallman for operation on 156.800 MHz at
this location in Huron, South Dakota.

Enforcement Bureau, \"Inspection Fact Sheet\", July 2003
April 15, 2008

Comments to NPRM Subject Pats Auxiliary Fuel Tanks

Docket No. FAA-2008-0298, Directorate Identifier 2007-NM-316-AD

Newsflight accomplished its 6-year inspection at Pats Inc between
01/29/07 thru 04/05/07. At which time we scheduled to incorporate two
SFAR 88 Compliant Service Bulletins for the Aux Fuel System. Upon our
arrival at Pats Inc we were informed that ST00936NY-D-28-SB-001 and
ST00936NY-D28-SB-021 were not currently approved for installation into
our aircraft during our 6-year inspection. Newsflight subsequently has
purchased and received both Pats SFAR 88 Service Bulletins
ST00936NY-D28-SB-001 and ST00936NY-D28-SB-021.

We elected to accomplish the Boeing SFAR 88 compliant Service Bulletins
despite the additional cost at a later date to access the same areas for
the Pats Aux Fuel System Service Bulletins to be incorporated. Our
decision was based on showing an effort to stay current with the SFAR 88
requirements available to us for the continued operation of a safe
Aircraft. The following Boeing SFAR 88 compliant Service Bulletins were
incorporated at the 6-year inspection:

1.  SB-737-28A1206 (AD-2002-24-51)

2.  SB-737-28A1248

3.  SB-737-28-1209 (AD-2005-23-16)

4.  SB-737-28-1225 (AD-2007-02-14)

5.  SB-737-57A1279

The two remaining Boeing SFAR 88 complaint Service Bulletins to date,
SB-737-28A1201 and SB-737-28A1207 (AD-2008-06-03) were not accomplished
due to release date and long lead time for parts. Note that the above
Service Bulletins are not due until 2012.

Based on NPRM Docket No. FAA-2008-0298 I would like to raise the
following comments:

1.  The compliance date of December 16, 2008 is unreasonable time frame
    to expect a fleet of 737 BBJ aircraft to meet when there is a clear
    lack of modification centers, manpower and materials to meet this
    dead line. This will prompt unqualified and untrained personal under
    taking this task.

2.  Pats Service Bulletins ST00936NY-D28-SB-001 and ST00936NY-D28-SB-001
    should be listed in the final AD as an AMOC.

3.  Boeing 737- 700 and 800 BBJ aircraft should be separated from the
    other Aircraft based on having an AMOC (Pats Service Bulletins
    listed above) and be given a reasonable time frame and or extension
    to comply with Pats Aux Fuel Tank Service Bulletins at their next
    heavy maintenance check whether it be the 3, 6 or 9 year inspection.
    This will help to off set the cost and down time.

4.  Cost to accomplish Pats Aux Fuel Tank Service Bulletins SB-001 and
    SB-021 for Newsflight is estimated at \$470,000. (\$310,000 for SB
    kits, \$160,000 Labor) Redundant labor cost if required to
    accomplish Service Bulletins prior to scheduled 9-year inspection is
    estimated at \$52,500.

The presence or absence of mass independent fractionation of S isotopes
(MIF-S) in sedimentary rocks has been linked to atmospheric O~2~
evolution. Until now, the UV-photolysis of SO~2~-gas has been the only
known mechanism to experimentally create MIF-S signatures. However,
serious discrepancies in MIF-S exist between geological samples and the
products of photochemical reaction experiments, including the ^33^S --
^34^S relationships of Archean sulfides and the ^33^S - ^36^S
relationships of 1,650-500 Ma sulfides and sulfates. Furthermore, our
recent discovery of the absence (or minor presence) of MIF-S in several
major Archean sedimentary formations (\~3.5 - \~2.7 Ga in age) suggests
that MIF-S signatures in sedimentary rocks may have been created by
non-photochemical reactions.

We have conducted detailed mineralogical and geochemical investigations
on the same sedimentary rock samples that we and previous investigators
analyzed for MIF-S and found that the shale samples with strong
MIF-signatures (^33^S \> ±1‰) generally have: (a) highly matured
(altered) kerogen with H/C ratios \<0.1; (b) high concentrations of
organic C (\>\~2 wt% today; \>\~6 wt% in the original sediments); (c) an
abundance of iron oxides and carbonates; and (d) strong hydrothermal
alteration signatures (e.g., Zn and/or Cu enrichment). In contrast, one
or more of these characteristics are absent in samples with no MIF
signature. These data suggest that MIF-S signatures may have been
created during the early diagenesis of very organic-rich sediments by
reactions involving a variety of sulfur-bearing aqueous and solid
compounds, iron-bearing minerals, and organic matter.
**Why Can\'t We Solve the Problem of High Temperature Superconductivity
?**

Mike Norman

*Materials Science Division*

Despite eighteen years of hard work, and thousands and thousands of
papers, the problem of high temperature superconductivity remains an
unsolved one. It has even been suggested by Laughlin that it will never
be solved because of its complexity.  I will assert, though, that it is
indeed a solvable problem, and that part of the reason for its currently
unsolved nature is sociological.  A good example of this is equivalent
experimental results coming out of different groups with radically
different interpretations.  I will illustrate this with various
examples, and also discuss the strong theoretical differences in the
community which drive this behavior.  I will conclude on the hopeful
note that a unique solution will indeed be forthcoming in the not so
distant future.
