**Saharan Air Layer (SAL)**: While some of the goals of this mission
type may be accomplished as part of the Evolution of Easterly Wave
missions, especially those close to Cape Verde, it is necessary to have
some dedicated missions or modules where penetration and direct aerosol
sampling of the dust layer is accomplished. One may envision some runs
above the SAL, preferentially crossing its southwestern boundary to
determine structure and gradients, followed by direct sampling within
the dust layer and perhaps into the BL as well. (Dust layer is expected
to be between 1.5 and 4.5 km, more or less.)

All,

Recently, you may have received the attached GAO Case Summary that was
transmitted by the OD Procurement Office to the Purchasing Agent
community. As a result, this office would like to reiterate that this
Summary document only represents a summation of the recent March 3, 2005
GAO Decision (B-300826) and does not in any way alter the existing
policy guidelines contained in NIH Manual Chapter (MC) 1160-1,
\"Entertainment\". As such, it is NIH policy that you
[cannot]{.underline} authorize the use of appropriated funds for the
provision of meals, at a formal conference held within the defined local
travel area. This would be a conference, that by definition, is
[not]{.underline} considered as either \"training\" or \"conference
training\" and would be linked to Event \"C\" in the corresponding
Appendix 3 of MC 1160-1. In this scenario, when all of the applicable
conditions are met, use of appropriated funds may be authorized for the
provision of light refreshments. In addition, any event, in order to be
deemed as either \"training\" or \"conference training\", must meet all
of the statutory and regulatory requirements as outlined in the
aforementioned Appendix 3.

Please make wide distribution of this guidance to your respective IC
Administrative Officer communities.

Thanks,

[Comments regarding Docket Number FAA-2007-27310]{.underline}

My comments and suggestions for changes to the Proposed Rules are as
follows:

1.  It is stated on page 32823 that the FAA only proposes to codify
    current reporting practices for the new categories of Class 3 and
    Class 4 rockets. This has not exactly been my experience. I have
    been filing Form 7711-2 for many years requesting waivers for
    unmanned rocket launches. I have not had to supply all of the
    Additional Information Requirements listed for Class 3 rockets.

2.  The vast majority of hobby rocket activity takes place at the "O"
    level (40,960 Newton-seconds) and below, as documented in the
    Tripoli Rocketry Association's safety code. It is my strong
    recommendation that Class 3 be redefined as having an upper limit of
    40,960 Newton-seconds.

3.  In conjunction with a reduced upper limit for Class 3 rockets, some
    of the proposed Additional Information Requirements constitute an
    excessive and unnecessary burden on their operators. In particular,

    a.  Hobby rocket launches are usually open to anyone who shows up
        with something to launch. Therefore it is difficult to estimate
        in advance the number of rockets in each total impulse class. As
        long as the applicable safety code is followed, the safety of
        the operation is not affected by what the mix of total impulse
        turns out to be.

    b.  Types of propulsion at hobby rocket launches are limited to
        black powder, Ammonium Perchlorate Composite Propellant (APCP),
        and the occasional nitrous oxide Hybrid motor.

    c.  The types of launchers used at these events are either rod,
        rail, or tower. I have never seen an airborne platform used at a
        hobby rocket launch.

    d.  Types of recovery are generally parachute and the occasional
        glider.

    e.  Providing a description of how the applicant will meet the
        operating limitations of §101.25 is redundant. All of the
        Certificates of Waiver I have ever received contained Special
        Provisions which stipulate which operating limitations must be
        followed.

    f.  Highest [allowed]{.underline} altitude above ground level is set
        by the Certificate of Waiver. It is the responsibility of the
        Certificate holder to prohibit any launch with an expected
        altitude above this limit. Highest expected altitude is usually
        an unknown prior to the start of a hobby rocket launch.

    g.  "Any additional safety procedures that will be followed" is a
        vague and unnecessary information requirement.

> I propose that the above-mentioned Additional Information Requirements
> be removed from the list for Class 3 rockets.

# Production General

According to a recent news article in El Diario dated July 15, 2004,
Chile began its first domestic rice exports to Brazil. As part of a
Ministry of Agriculture development program, in cooperation with
Fundacion Chile (is a private non-profit institution that contributes to
market innovation and technology transfer in goods and services),
producers in Regions VII and VIII (Talca and San Carlos production
areas) delivered the first shipment of "japonica" rice to Brazil. The
shipment totaled 50 tons of rice at an average price of US\$400 per ton.
Brazil is a significant producer of rice, but Chile has the potential
for a significant market niche because it produces various types of
specialized Japanese rice. There are an estimated 4 million Japanese
descendants living in the Sao Paulo area. This huge Japanese community
in Brazil registers a per capita consumption of 60 kilograms per year
and is the targeted client for Chilean diamond rice. This rice is
considered to be different than the normal long and narrow grain
"tropical or indico" type rice as it is a long, wide and soft grain with
excellent culinary characteristics. In Chile, rice grows in a
Mediterranean climate, with practically rainless summers, and hot, dry
days with a lot of sunlight. These conditions together with the low
relative humidity favor increased rice production in a high yield
environment entirely free of insecticides and fungicides.

This year an estimated 50 tons will be exported, but the Rice Producers
Association predicted that starting in 2005 Chile would export 100 tons
per month to Brazil.

# IMPORTANT NOTICE CONCERNING BENDIX AIR BRAKE RECALL

September 18, 2000

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has issued a
recall of Bendix Antilock Braking Systems (ABS) found on 1998-2000
buses, and medium and heavy trucks equipped with air brakes. Our records
indicate that approximately 1,700 GSA Fleet vehicles **may** have this
brake system. GSA Fleet is sending letters to all customers with one or
more of these vehicles notifying them of the issue and the proper steps
to take to ensure that the vehicles are safe to operate.

The Bendix electronic control unit (ECU) which controls the Antilock
Braking System (ABS) in these vehicles can misinterpret erratic or stray
signals that can be generated by chafed wiring or a failed wheel speed
sensor. The condition can increase stopping distances at low speeds.

Bendix, the vehicle manufacturers and NHTSA are recommending that all
vehicles affected by this recall be inspected immediately to ensure that
they are in good working order. Later, as replacement ECU's become
available, our customers with one or more of these vehicles will receive
a recall notice from the vehicle manufacturer directing them to take
their vehicle(s) in for ECU replacement. Due to the limited supply of
replacement ECU's, the recall is being carried out on a prioritized
basis with buses being recalled first, followed by fire and emergency
service vehicles.

The safety of our customers is of the utmost concern to us. Accordingly,
we urge all customers who are notified that their vehicle(s) may be
involved to immediately contact their local manufacturer authorized
repair facility to schedule an inspection. They should also contact
their local repair facility if they have any questions about the recall
or if they are uncertain as to whether their vehicle is affected.

If you receive a letter, please remember to take the card that
accompanies the letter with you when you have the vehicle inspected. It
should be completed by the person performing the inspection and returned
to you for mailing.

If you are uncertain about where to take your vehicle, please contact
your local GSA Fleet Management Center for instructions. You may also
contact the manufacturer of your vehicle. A list of manufacturers,
including phone numbers and web addresses, may be found on the GSA Fleet
web site at
[www.fss.gsa.gov/vehicles/leasing](http://www.fss.gsa.gov/vehicles/leasing).

If you require additional assistance, please contact the GSA Fleet
Maintenance Control Center at 1-888-622-6344.

Western Oregon Plan Revisions

PO Box 2965

Portland, OR 97208

To the Bureau of Land Management:

I am writing to express my concern and opposition to the Western Oregon
Plan Revisions as proposed by your agency. The revisions will come at
the expense of clean air and drinking water, carbon storage to combat
climate change, endangered species (including the old growth ecosystem
itself!), recreation, and a priceless inheritance for future
generations. High quality drinking water originates on BLM lands for the
citizens of Salem, Corvallis, Eugene, and 70 other Oregon communities.

The Secretary of the Interior has heard from 113 scientists (and maybe
more by now) who say that "the plan ignores, and may have distorted for
political reasons, evidence about the spotted owl to justify opening old
growth habitat to logging." Ron Sadler, retired chief of forestry
planning for BLM, has noted that the BLM timberlands draft is a failure,
and that "BLM refuses to recognize that the scarce resource is not the
spotted owl, or any of the other 300 + plants and animals associated
with old growth timber. The scarce resource is the old growth ecosystem
itself." I believe it is time for you to protect, not pillage, these
immense trees and the ecosystems of which they are an integral part, and
which play a critical part in producing clean air and water.

I am also aware that this plan will condone increased use of herbicides,
to which I am totally opposed. Not only will these herbicides poison the
forests where they are used, they will trickle down hillsides, streams,
and rivers to accumulate in the lowlands where they will pose health
hazards for many years to our unborn children. Use of these poisons
constitutes chemical warfare on the people and many creatures (both
plant and animal) who call the Western states home. We need to
completely eliminate the use of poison pesticides for the sake of ours
and our children's future: and what about the people who must
manufacture these substances? In the past, BLM has been judicious in
their use of herbicides (nearly none), and I hope that attitude and
practice continues.

I hope the BLM can withstand political pressure and do the right thing.

Sincerely,

Robin Winfree

Firefighting Agencies Move to Counter Loss of Tankers

Reno, Nev.---Federal and state wildland fire fighting agencies are
quickly moving to assess the equipment needs that have resulted from the
loss of the use of 33 large air tankers. The U.S. Forest Service, the
Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the Nevada Division of Forestry are
reviewing existing capabilities, the availability of contract equipment
and National Guard aviation resources to identify short term and long
term needs for initial attack and large fire suppression.

The U.S. Forest Service and the Department of the Interior announced
earlier this week that contracts for the air tankers would be terminated
after a National Transportation Safety Board report indicated there is
no method in place to adequately ensure the safety and airworthiness of
the aging aircraft.

The tragic loss of two large air tankers, pilots and crew in 2002
resulted in a reduction in the use of air tankers during the 2003
wildfire season. Operational adjustments were successfully made last
year with additional pre-positioning of suppression resources,
increasing equipment and staff, and initiating fire restrictions during
times of high fire danger. The agencies are striving to make additional
adjustments that will augment and support firefighters in the safe and
efficient suppression of wildland fire.

Firefighting Agencies Move to Counter Loss of Tankers - 2222

Through the National Fire Plan, many positive actions are being taken to
reduce fire fuels and educate private landowners about creating
defensible space around their property. Nevada's five Fire Safe Councils
are working with fire fighting agencies to help communities reduce fire
fuels and to build up fire fighting capabilities.

Every citizen and visitor to Nevada can help reduce danger of wildland
fire by using caution to not start a wildfire and to create defensible
space around their property.

\(b\) The issuance of an allowance is discretionary with department or
staff office heads (allottees), as an allowance is merely a management
device which allottees may utilize in carrying out their
responsibilities. Allottees are responsible for keeping obligations
within the amounts of their allotments, whether allowances are issued or
not.

\(c\) The Director, Office of Budget and Finance, is responsible for
requesting apportionments and reapportionments from the Office of
Management and Budget. Administration and staff heads shall promptly
request that an appropriation or fund be reapportioned if feasible
whenever it appears that obligations may exceed the level of the
apportionment. (Authority: 31 U.S.C. 1514)

**§1.673 Responsibility for violations of the administrative subdivision
of funds.**

\(a\) In the event an allotment or an apportionment is exceeded except
in the circumstances described in paragraph (b) of this section, the
following factors will be considered in determining which official, or
officials, are responsible for the violation.

\(1\) Knowledge of circumstances which could lead to an allotment or
apportionment being exceeded;

\(2\) Whether the official had received explicit instructions to
continue or cease incurring obligations;

\(3\) Whether any action was taken in contravention of or with disregard
for, instructions to monitor obligations incurred;

\(4\) Whether the official had the authority to curtail obligations by
directing a change in the manner of operations of the department or
staff office; or

\(5\) Any other facts which tend to fix the responsibility for the
obligations which resulted in the allotment or apportionment being
exceeded.

\(b\) In the event that the sum of the allotments made in a particular
fiscal year exceeds the amount apportioned by the Office of Management
and Budget, and the apportionment is subsequently exceeded because of
this action, the official who made the excess allotments will be the
official responsible for the violation. (Authority: 31 U.S.C. 1514)

**NOTICE OF UNLICENSED OPERATION**

Case Number: EB-08-LA-026

Document Number: W200832900001

The Los Angeles Office received information that an unlicensed broadcast
radio station on 99.1 MHz was allegedly operating in Thousand Oaks,
California. On February 13, 2008, an agent from this office confirmed by
direction finding techniques that radio signals on frequency 99.1 MHz
were emanating from 3163 Wild Horse Ct., Thousand Oaks, CA. The
Commission's records show that no license was issued for operation of a
broadcast station at this location on 99.1 MHz in Thousand Oaks, CA.

Radio stations must be licensed by the FCC pursuant to 47 U.S.C. § 301.
The only exception to this licensing requirement is for certain
transmitters using or operating at a power level that complies with the
standards established in Part 15 of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R.
§§  15.1 *et seq*. Your operation on frequency 99.1 MHz was measured at
2,482 microvolts per meter (µV/m) at 111 meters. This exceeds the
allowable unlicensed limit of 250 µV/m at 3 meters established in Part
15. Thus, this station is operating in violation of 47 U.S.C. §  301.

You are hereby warned that operation of radio transmitting equipment
without a valid radio station authorization constitutes a violation of
the Federal laws cited above and could subject the operator of this
illegal operation to severe penalties, including, but not limited to,
substantial monetary forfeitures, *in rem* arrest action against the
offending radio equipment, and criminal sanctions including
imprisonment. (*See* 47 U.S.C. §§ 401, 501, 503 and 510.)

**UNLICENSED OPERATION OF THIS RADIO STATION MUST BE DISCONTINUED
IMMEDIATELY**.

You have ten (10) days from the date of this notice to respond with any
evidence that you have authority to operate granted by the FCC. Your
response should be sent to the address in the letterhead and reference
the listed case and document number. Under the Privacy Act of 1974, 5
U.S.C. § 552a(e)(3), we are informing you that the Commission's staff
will use all relevant material information before it to determine what,
if any, enforcement action is required to ensure your compliance with
FCC Rules. This will include any information that you disclose in your
reply.

You may contact this office if you have any questions.

**SBA DISASTER LOANS AVAILABLE TO NON-FARM MISSOURI BUSINESSES AFFECTED
BY APRIL FREEZE**

**ST LOUIS, Mo. -** The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA)
announces that federal disaster loans are available to small businesses
located in Cape Girardeau, Clark, Jefferson, Lewis, Lincoln, Marion,
Mississippi, Perry, Pike, Ralls, Scott, St. Charles, St. Louis, St.
Louis City and Ste. Genevieve counties in the State of Missouri.

"These counties are eligible because they are contiguous to one or more
primary counties in the State of Illinois. SBA recognizes that disasters
do not usually stop at the county or state lines. For that reason,
counties adjacent to primary counties named in the declaration are
included," according to Frank Skaggs, Director of SBA Field Operations
Center East.

SBA's disaster declaration was issued as a result of a similar action
taken by the Secretary of Agriculture to help farmers recover from
damages and losses to crops caused by freezing temperatures occurring
April 3 through April 11, 2007.

Under this declaration, SBA's Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL)
program is available to farm-related and nonfarm-related small business
concerns and small agricultural cooperatives that suffered economic
injury as a direct result of this disaster. Farmers and ranchers are not
eligible to apply to SBA.

Eligible small businesses may qualify for loans up to \$1.5 million.
These loans are available at a 4 percent interest rate with loan terms
up to 30 years. SBA determines eligibility for the program based on the
size and type of business and its financial resources. Loan amounts and
terms are set by SBA and are based upon each applicant's financial
condition. Under this disaster declaration, SBA cannot provide loans to
agricultural producers.

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. until 9 p.m., and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. EDT. Business
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.

**Completed loan applications must be returned to SBA no later than
[February 1, 2008]{.underline}**

[KETEK'S EFFECT ON MURINE IMMUNE RESPONSE.]{.underline}

Ketek *Sanofi-Aventis* is a semi-synthetic antibiotic in the ketolide
class; related structurally to the macrolides, and also known as
telithromycin. It has become infamous recently as its' use has been
suggested to correlate with liver failure and injury in some human
beings. There is active debate regarding the drugs therapeutic safety.
Ketek's mode of action is through inhibiting protein synthesis at the
bacterial ribosomes. This drug is widely prescribed for drug resistant
intracellular respiratory pathogens. Ketek is concentrated by phagocytic
cells, and this correlates with enhanced immune responses with many
other drugs that we have examined. In testing anti-mirobial activity
murine derived phagocytic cells, we have found that macrophage cidal
activity was significantly enhanced, while neutrophil cidal activity was
depressed. Ketek only slightly enhanced murine DTH to
dinitrofluorobenzene *Sigma*, while organ clearance of candidal yeasts
administered intravenously was not any different in drug-treated and
control mice. Perhaps drug mediated stimulation of macrophages may
nonspecifically enhance patient therapy. This work was supported by the
Max Baer Heart Fund, Fraternal Order of Eagles, and the Ls-AMP Scholar's
Program (**authors bolded**).

Subject: closing the loopholes

We Cannot begin to imagine the many chances for increased tax revenue by

going to a spending tax instead of an earning tax. Tax evaders still
want

to buy the luxury items they now enjoy because of their great knowledge
of

tax evasion, BUT NOW, their pockets will begin the hurt that OURS feel

because of our bearing THEIR load. I\'m retired, and don\'t usually owe
any

tax, but I have to pay an expert each year to tell me I don\'t owe any
tax.

Congress should have kicked out the lobyist long ago, and fixed this
whole

mess.

One suggestion, no tax on things people need to live.

Sincerely,

Dan Sewell

END OF SECTION
A BREATH OF FRESH AIR: HOW GREAT WAS THE GREAT OXIDATION EVENT?

[**KAH, Linda C.**](mailto:lckah@utk.edu), Department of Earth &
Planetary Sciences, University of Tennessee, 1412 Circle Drive,
Knoxville, TN 37996, lckah@utk.edu.

A fundamental change in the oxidation state of the Earth\'s biosphere at
\~2.2 Ga is marked by a large, positive C-isotope excursion. This
excursion records increased photosynthetic production and burial of
organic carbon, and the subsequent release of oxygen to the biosphere.
Biospheric oxygenation is further supported by the disappearance of MIF
signatures, and a concomitant increase in mass-dependent S-isotopic
fractionation recorded in sedimentary sulfides. Unfortunately, MIF
signatues disappear at oxygen levels as low as 10^-5^ PAL, so it remains
unclear to what extent the biosphere was oxygenated by this event.

Because marine sulfate results from oxidative weathering of crustal
rocks, sulfate reservoir size is a viable proxy for atmospheric
oxygenation. The S-isotope record of marine sulfates (*via* CAS) thus
provides the best means to determine the ultimate fate of the oxidizing
potential recorded in marine C-isotopes. In particular, modeling marine
sulfate as a non-steady-state system, dependent upon both mass and
isotopic composition of reservoir size, as well as input/output fluxes,
permits an unprecedented glimpse into Precambrian ocean-atmosphere
evolution.

Prior to 2.2 Ga, limited S-isotope variability preserved in sedimentary
sulfides suggests sulfate concentrations \<200µM. Modeling of
Proterozoic S-isotope records, however, suggest low sulfate (1.5-4.5 mM,
or \~5-15% modern values) for \>1000 million years after the Great
Oxidation Event (GOE), and may have reached levels of only 0.5-0.9 mM (
\~1-3% modern values) by the end of the GOE. This data suggests that,
during the Great Oxidation Event, the capacity of crustal oxygen sinks
far likely outstripped net biospheric oxygen production.
