### Congressman Franks Applauds Senate All-Nighter

###### Says, "The fate of this Republic absolutely depends upon judicial integrity."

* *

 

November 13, 2003-U.S. Representative Trent Franks remained up all night
with his Republican Senate colleagues to encourage them for standing
against Senate Democrat's efforts to prevent President Bush's judicial
nominees from receiving a straight up-or-down vote on the Senate floor.
On Wednesday, November 12^th^, the Senate began an historic non-stop
debate on judicial nominations, the first such all-nighter in more than
11 years.

 

**"The fate of this Republic absolutely depends upon judicial
integrity," Franks said. "The very rule of law is at stake here. I
applaud the valiant efforts of the Senate majority in this crucial
battle to stop liberal Democrats from taking America down the hopeless
road of judicial oligarchy."**

 

This year, due to Democrat filibusters, Miguel Estrada, Priscilla Owen,
William Pryor, and Charles Pickering have failed to receive a vote on
their nominations, even though they all had majority support. Prior to
this year, the record number of cloture votes on a judge was two. On
D.C. Circuit Court nominee Miguel Estrada, the Senate had seven cloture
votes before he withdrew his name from consideration.

 

**"President Bush has nominated individuals to the bench who will read
the law for what it says, rather than writing the law from the bench.
The U.S. Senate owes these nominees a straight up-or-down vote. This
insidious filibuster by liberal Democrats in the Senate is unprecedented
in the history of this nation. Miguel Estrada withdrew his nomination
after the Senate Democrats refused to allow a fair vote for nearly two
years. This was a profound tragedy and a disgrace upon those in the
Senate who savaged this decent man."**

CATEGORY: Classification

TARIFF NO.: 6110.20.2065

Ms. Kathleen Walsh

All-Air Customs Brokers, Inc.

Springfield Gardens, NY 11413

RE: The tariff classification of a men's knit pullover garment from
China.

Dear Ms. Walsh:

In your letter dated March 6, 2003, you requested a tariff
classification ruling on behalf of J. A. Apparel Corp. As requested,
your sample will be returned.

Style F3104 is a men's pullover garment constructed from 50 percent
merino wool, 50 percent cotton, reverse jersey knit fabric that measures
13 stitches per two centimeters counted in the horizontal direction.
Style F3104 features a rib knit crew neckline; long, raglan sleeves with
rib knit cuffs; a triangular insert at the front neckline; and a rib
knit bottom.

At the time of entry, Customs may verify the actual fiber content of
Style F3104. If the fiber content differs from the content indicated in
your letter, the tariff classification may change from the information
indicated below.

The applicable subheading for Style F3104 will be 6110.20.2065,
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, (HTS), which provides
for: sweaters, pullovers, sweatshirts, waistcoats (vests) and similar
articles, knitted or crocheted: of cotton: other: other: other: men\'s
or boys\'. The rate of duty will be 16.9 percent ad valorem.

Style F3104 falls within textile category designation 338. Based upon
international textile trade agreements, products of China are subject to
visa requirements and quota restraints.

The designated textile and apparel categories and their quota and visa
status are the result of international agreements that are subject to
frequent renegotiations and changes. To obtain the most current
information, we suggest that you check, close to the time of shipment,
the [U.S. Customs Service Textile Status Report]{.underline}, an
internal issuance of the U.S. Customs Service, which is available at the
Customs Web site at www.customs.gov. In addition, the designated textile
and apparel categories may be subdivided into parts. If so, visa and
quota requirements applicable to the subject merchandise may be affected
and should also be verified at the time of shipment.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the
Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of this ruling letter or the control number indicated above
should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this
merchandise is imported. If you have any questions regarding this
ruling, contact National Import Specialist Mary Ryan at 646-733-3271.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Swierupski

Director,

Update History Summary for

Construction Standard Specification, **Section 16742**

**"Intra-Building Telecommunications System"**

**[Revised 20 June 2008]{.underline}**

Changed the mix of fiber optics cables in the standard communications
drop.

**[Issued 02/01/03]{.underline}**

The following are the major changes made to the new specification 16742
that are different from the old 16740 specification.

1.  Deleted all copper data lines (RED and BLACK).

2.  Terminated the one Cat 5e copper voice cable to a single gang
    faceplate next to the new fiber outlets at the desktop (plenum cable
    is allowed).

3.  Combined the RED and BLACK fiber into the same user outlet.

4.  Combined the RED and BLACK fiber into one conduit backbone system.

5.  Deleted the Single mode fiber distribution to the desktop.

6.  Installed one additional Multimode fiber to the desktop for each
    system RED and BLACK

7.  Changed the 62.5 micron Multimode fiber to 50 micron Multimode
    fiber.

8.  Increased the allowable distance from IDR to desktop from 90 meters
    to 150 meters.

9.  Moved the fiber terminations in the IDR from wall mounted LIUs to
    termination shelves installed in equipment cabinets.

10. Eliminated the use of cable tray in the IDRs. Fiber conduit will now
    drop directly into the equipment cabinet the fiber will be
    terminating into.

11. Eliminated all but two 4 x 8 sheets of the ¾" plywood from IDR
    walls. Plywood will still be needed for the Voice protector frame
    and to mount the ISDN power supply.

12\. Combined the RED side of the IDR and the BLACK into one room with
no divider wall.

Section 16742 should be used instead of section 16740 for all new
construction and major renovations to existing buildings. Section 16740
should be used in buildings that were cabled using the Section 16740
specification. Designer should contact Jay Peterson at 844-2092 if not
sure which Section to use.
MISSOURI

Missouri has a long history of underground mining of coal, lead, zinc,
iron, clay, industrial sand, sandstone and limestone. Over 9000
abandoned underground mines are estimated to exist in the state, ranging
from drifts less than 100 feet in early mines to hundreds of miles in
more recent mines. The Missouri Geological Survey and Resource
Assessment Division (GSRAD) has maps for approximately 10% of coal
mines. GSRAD has less than 50% representation of maps for noncoal
commodities; the majority of these are in the Tri-State District.

Maps are currently filed in drawers by general area. A very rough,
incomplete inventory is the only catalog. Less than 10% of the maps are
original paper/linens, with the rest reproductions on various media.
These reproductions are also commonly the only known remaining copies of
these maps. About 10% have been electronically scanned, and only a few
percent of these are georeferenced.

The map files sometimes receive extensive use by individuals and
companies doing planning or construction projects or addressing geologic
hazards such as new collapses in mined regions.

Currently only one GSRAD staff member is familiar with the locations of
maps in the files.

Re: Docket No. FR-5006-P-01 - 24 CFR Part 100, Design and Construction
Requirements; Compliance with ANSI A117.1 Standards; Proposed Rule

The Paralyzed Veterans of America (PVA) is pleased to offer the
following comments on the proposed rule cited above that was published
in the July 18, 2007 Federal Register. PVA is the only
Congressionally-chartered Veterans Service Organization representing
veterans with spinal cord injury and/or dysfunction.

In the NPRM, HUD advises that, designers, builders, and others \"relying
on the \[ANSI A117.1\] standard also need to consult the Fair Housing
Act (FHA), the Department\'s implementing regulations and the FHA
accessibility guidelines (FHAAG) for the scoping criteria.\"  PVA
believes that HUD should seek greater inclusion of references to the
FHA, regulations and FHAAG in technical code documents such as ANSI to
avoid circumstances where people relying on ANSI overlook the need to
refer to the FHAAG.

 

HUD lists ten safe harbors for compliance with the FHA\'s Design and

[Genetic Algorithm for Scheduling Problems in Flow Shop with Exact
Delay]{.underline}, J.R.Glascock, Hairong Zhao\*, Purdue University
Calumet, Department of Mathematics, Computer Science and Statistics,
Hammond, IN 46323, hairong@calumet.purdue.edu

Flow shop is one of the most classic scheduling models that have been
studied since 1950\'s. In the past, most research about flow shop is
done under the assumption that the time needed to move a job from one
machine to another is negligible. But this may not be true in real life.
In this research, we study the scheduling problems in the two-machine
flow shop with exact delays model. This problem arises in chemistry
manufacturing where there often may be an exact technological delay
between the completion time of some operation and the initial time of
the next operation.

Formally, our scheduling model can be stated as follows. There are two
machines, the upstream machine and the downstream machine. There are n
jobs. Each job has two operations: the first operation has to be
processed on the upstream machine and the second operation has to be
scheduled on the downstream machine after the first operation finishes.
Furthermore, the interval between the start time of the second operation
and the completion time of the first operation has to be exactly equal
to a predefined parameter of the particular job.

We assume that both machines are available from time 0 and that at any
time a machine can only process one operation. The problem is to find a
permutation schedule of the jobs, so that the total completion time is
minimized. It has been shown that this problem is hard and there is no
hope to find the best schedule in polynomial time in general. Two
metaheuriscs, Simulated Annealing and Tabu Search have been designed for
this problem.

In this research, we design a totally different metaheuristic, Genetic
Algorithm, to solve the problem. Genetic Algorithms are a particular
class of evolutionary algorithms that use techniques inspired by
evolutionary biology such as mutation, selection and crossover. We
measure the performance of the algorithm by experiments. We compare this
metaheuristic with Tabu Search and Simulated Annealing in terms of time
and relative error.

"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 excessive rain, flash flooding and
flooding on August 1, 2006 and continuing", according to Frank Skaggs,
Director of SBA Field Operations Center East.

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.

Regulation of Industrial Wastewater Holding Tanks and Containers

Holding tanks, mobile tanks and containers are commonly used by
commercial, industrial, institutional and municipal facilities --
particularly in areas not served by sewers -- to store wastewater for
off-site disposal, recycling or treatment. Depending on storage vessel
functions, wastewater characteristics and facility locations, these
tanks and containers may be subject to different federal and state
regulations.

All owners and operators of industrial wastewater holding tanks (IWHTs),
mobile tanks and containers used exclusively to accumulate or store
non-hazardous, non-sanitary wastewater are required to comply with a
Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) industrial
wastewater holding tank regulation (found at 314 CMR 18.00) that took
effect in November 2002.

Applicability and requirements

The regulation applies only to facilities that store non-hazardous,
non-sanitary wastewater in IWHTs, mobile tanks or containers and intend
to truck it directly off-site for disposal, recycling or treatment. The
rule establishes specific construction and operation standards,
record-keeping requirements and decommissioning procedures for these
industrial wastewater storage vessels.

In addition, there is a one-time compliance certification requirement
for IWHTs. The certification form (DEP01) replaces holding tank plan
approvals (IW-29 and WP-56) that were required before November 2002.
IWHTs previously approved by DEP, as well as mobile tanks and
containers, are exempt from the certification requirement.

Regardless of installation date or certification status, owners and
operators of storage vessels subject to the regulation are required to
comply with all applicable procedures, requirements and standards.

**Exemptions**

The regulation does *not* apply to tanks and containers that are used
for:

-   Sanitary wastewater storage regulated under 310 CMR 15.00 (Title 5)

-   Production processes and wastewater treatment systems

-   Non-contact cooling water or heating or cooling condensate storage

-   Waste site cleanup projects regulated under 310 CMR 40.0000

-   Hazardous waste storage regulated under 310 CMR 30.000

-   Facilities regulated under the DEP Environmental Results Program
    (dry cleaners, photo processors and printers)

For additional information

You may download a copy of the DEP01 Industrial Wastewater Holding Tank
certification package from the DEP Web site at:

The Environment and Regolith Physical Characterization Project for
Characterization of Physical Property of Lunar Regolith

By Kenneth R. Johnson and Martin Buehler, Jet Propulsion Laboratory,
Pasadena, CA

The detailed design of in-situ lunar regolith processing equipment and
facilities to produce usable propellants, building materials, and other
consumables will require knowledge of regolith physical properties.
Knowledge of the regolith's mineralogical content and chemical
composition will be essential to direct the selection of harvestable
materials as well as to identify applicable chemical processing schemes.
Further, knowledge of particle size and shape distribution, bulk
density, and electrostatic and electromagnetic properties will provide
guidelines for the design of bulk handling and transporting equipment.
Many other regolith physical properties can be ascertained readily from
the literature once the mineralogy and the particulate size and shape
distributions of the material are known. Therefore, a suite of
instruments that can provide optical microscopy, petrographic microscopy
and Raman spectroscopy seems the best choice to yield the mineralogical
and particle measurements needed for establishing lunar regolith
physical properties. The Environment and Regolith Physical
Characterization (ERPC) Task (part of the Regolith & Environment Science
and Oxygen & Lunar Volatile Extraction (RESOLVE) Project) will undertake
the development of such an instrument suite for application on the moon.
This presentation will describe the preliminary ERPC module instrument
selection and will discuss the regolith simulant needs for testing an
engineering breadboard unit of this ERPC instrument suite.
