**Final Resolutions**

***Domestic Subcommittee Resolution #3:***

WHEREAS HIV infection continues to evolve toward a complex, chronic,
ambulatory illness for many people, with continued emphasis on reduced
mortality, decreased hospital utilization, and long-term viral
suppression; and

WHEREAS appropriate expertise and experience in the management of HIV
infection lead to better outcomes for people living with HIV disease
^1,2^; and

WHEREAS there are over 1,000,000 people living with HIV disease in all
parts of the United States that are in need of lifelong care; and

WHEREAS there is concern that there exists a workplace shortage and that
present medical providers are having difficulty managing their current
patient caseload;

WHEREAS this shortage of medical providers is having a significant
impact on providing culturally competent service for HIV patients; then

BE IT RESOLVED THAT the Presidential Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS calls
on the Secretary of Health and Human Services to sponsor an Institute of
Medicine study of the HIV medical workforce. This study will assess the
capacity of the HIV medical workforce, including issues surrounding
reimbursement, to respond to the needs of persons living with HIV/AIDS
on a regional and national basis.

BE IT FURTHER REOLVED THAT the Secretary of Health and Human Service
develop interim steps to address areas of known medical workforce
shortages.

Dear Mt. Wilson FM Broadcasters:

This letter is in reference to your May 21, 1999 construction permit
application, in which you seek authority to change transmitter site and
to change city of license from San Raphael to Piedmont -- San Rafael,
CA.

A change in the community of license is a major change, as defined by 47
CFR 73.3571(a)(1). *See* *Streamlining of Technical Rules,* 14 FCC Rcd
5272, 5278 (1999) at paragraph 9. At the present time,

major change applications are not being accepted for filing. *See
Competitive Bidding for Commercial Broadcast and Instructional Fixed
Television Service (NPRM),* 12 FCC Rcd 22363, 22409 (1997) at paragraph
111. Consequently, your major change application IS HEREBY RETURNED.

Please be aware that KJQI could incorporate Piedmont into its station
identification without actually being licensed to that community. The
community of license (San Rafael) must be mentioned first in any
multiple community station identification. *See* 47 CFR 73.1201(b)(2).

Sincerely,

Son Nguyen

Biotransformation of vegetable oils through the use of enzymes as
catalysts has been a matter of intense investigation nowadays. Among
several raw materials available, castor oil, obtained from the growing
native castor plant, is one of the most versatile products with
applications in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries.
Furthermore, the possibility of using biodiesel as an additive to
mineral diesel, to result in a sulfur-free, with a higher-cetane number
fuel from a renewable resource has motivated the biomodification of
vegetable oils towards the reduction of environmental investments and
import needs. In this context, this work is aimed at investigating the
production of fatty-acid ethyl esters (FAEE) from castor oil using
n-hexane as solvent and two commercial lipases, Novozyme 435 and
Lipozyme IM, as catalysts. For this purpose, a Taguchi experimental
design was adopted considering the variables temperature (35-65^o^C),
water (0-10%) and enzyme (5-20%) concentrations and the oil to ethanol
molar ratio (1:3 to 1:10). Afterwards, an empirical model was built so
as to assess the main and cross variable effects on the reaction
conversion and also to maximize the biodiesel production for each
enzyme. It is shown that complete conversion in FAEE is achieved for
some experimental conditions tested.

***Excerpt from Annual Report of the Director of the Mint to the
Secretary of the Treasury Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1878***

Washington: Government Printing Office, 1878, Page 9-10. -- Historical
Reference Collection, United States Mint.

PRECAUTIONS AGAINST COUNTERFEITING.

I have long been impressed with the belief that the worst danger which
threatens our gold coin, from counterfeiters, is the filling with an
inferior metal or alloy. By this art the piece presents genuine
exteriors, but the inner part having been removed, a disk of platinum,
pure or alloyed, is inserted in its place and closed with a ribbed rim
of gold. It is, therefore, partly genuine and partly counterfeit, and
its value is reduced by several dollars, differing according to the
denomination of the piece.

The largest chance of spoliation of course occurs with the twenty-dollar
piece, but the pieces of ten and five dollars have also been filled. So
far the mischief has been very limited, as it evidently requires
first-class workmen, and is slow work; but pieces of this sort are, of
all false issues, the most difficult to detect.

Some experiments were made at the Philadelphia mint in 1860 to determine
whether this fraud might not be prevented by materially lessening the
thickness of the coin and consequently enlarging its diameter, at the
same time giving the disks a slight concavity, so as to make the piece
of a minimum thickness at the center. A pair of dies were engraved for
the half-eagle, and a few specimens prepared on this basis.

Nothing further was done, for in fact in the very next year gold
disappeared from circulation and has so continued, until we are now on
the eve of resuming its use. I have therefore thought it desirable, in
order to give our gold coin greater security, to experiment still
farther in this line, and to this end experimental dies are being
prepared for the half and quarter eagle denominations. The larger piece
will be expanded to nearly the surface of the present eagle, and
adjusted both to ordinary and metrical scales, viz, one inch or about
twenty-six millimeters in diameter.

The smaller piece will be of the diameter of the present three-dollar
piece, about four-fifths of an inch, or twenty millimeters.

These measures make the planchet so thin that sawing out the interior
part would be a very critical, not to say impossible, feat, and not
likely to pay for the labor. At the same time the coins would be thick
enough at the raised border to be easily taken up by the fingers and
stiff enough to resist bending.

The dimensions of our coins have never been a matter of legal enactment,
and alteration could be made, if so desired, with the approval of the
Secretary of the Treasury.

Compiled and transcribed by the United States Mint, Office of the
Historian.
I work for a university in a rural area of Northern California. Formerly
a school psychologist, I teach inclusion and mainstreaming strategies to
future general education teachers. Assessment of our local high school
and junior high schools shows very limited use of assistive technology
to support LD student\'s access to text. To make technology practical,
usable and available several critical factors need to be addressed. If
solutions to these difficulties are not included in a national
technology plan then that plan will be all promise and no substance. The
problem as I see it is five fold. First, few resource teacher\'s have
new, functioning computers for student use. Most are Pentium II or III.
Second, although some good assistive software has been made available,
many are reluctant to make use of it. Third, state of the art software
such as Kurzweil3000 version 8 is prohibitively expensive. Fourth, there
is no continuem of training for students in the appropriate use of
assistive technology to support their access to core materials. Fifth,
because of the factors above many student\'s do not continue on to
college programs where appropriate assistive tech is available. No Child
Left Behind asks us to expose all students to and help them reach grade
level standards without acknowledging that there are those who can not
obtain access and success because of problems such as developmental
dyslexia. Unless we use technology to support our special education
students, the promise of NCLB will not be met.

Room 2507: Modernization Program Office Conference Room

**[Attendees:]{.underline}**

[Modernization Program Office**:**]{.underline} Gay Bindocci, Jeremy
Lawson

[Facilities Management Division:]{.underline} Ian Rosenblum

[Building Occupants:]{.underline} Greg Rabida, Jan Elmore, Terry

**[Points of Discussion]{.underline}:**

-   An attendee smelled something that resembled All Spice in the 6400
    corridor. This occurred once and did not repeat.

-   Attendees questioned the value of SaLUT air quality reports as many
    boxes in the charts were filled with N/A. Occupants wanted to know
    what this meant exactly, and whether or not they were providing
    adequate information

-   Attendees requested that painting be moved off hours to the night
    shift in order to prevent odor problems throughout the building.

-   Ms. Bindocci noted that a new, water-based duct sealer was approved
    for use in place of an oil-based sealer.

-   Excessive amounts of refuse are being stored in the garage and are
    roped off. Attendees questioned whether more of this trash could be
    removed from the premises faster.

**[Action Items:]{.underline}**

1.  Contact GSA IH James Hodges regarding questions about SaLUT air
    quality reports.

2.  Discuss with contractor possible acceleration of removal of refuse
    from the garage area.

**Testbed Workspace Second Round Project 1**

**IVI Grid Infrastructure Deployment Project Template**

***Note -- we suggest that there be multiple instances of this project
awarded.***

The focus of the in-vivo imaging (IVI) workspace is to develop caGrid
compatible tools and techniques to  1) support visualization, annotation
and analysis of in vivo imaging studies  and  2) to integrate image
based information with clinical, molecular and tissue based correlative
data. Development of the enabling technologies such as  IVI middleware
and eXtensible Imaging Platform (XIP) are now underway. The Testbed SIG
believes that there is now a pressing need to work with the imaging
research community to develop caGrid enabled applications able to
effectively leverage the IVI caGrid infrastructure and enabling
technologies.

We propose an approach which would facilitate caGrid enablement of
multiple image-based collaborative efforts, including but not limited to
image based cooperative groups. The approach would be to provide
supplementary support to image based collaborative projects to make it
possible for these groups to develop compelling applications that
leverage the IVI Grid infrastructure.

The workspace would seek a portfolio of different image based cancer
research applications that would collectively encompass:

1)  Multiple imaging modalities

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
1)  Support for grid based image interpretation carried out by
    geographically dispersed individuals ("central review")

2)  Computer aided support for change detection and/or computer aided
    diagnosis

3)  Scenarios that require integrated analysis of image, molecular,
    pathology and clinical data

4)  Scenarios that require large data transfers and/or computationally
    demanding analyses

5)  Integration of legacy data sources into IVI Grid Infrastructure

6)  Tracking of  data provenance

We seek a set of studies that, taken together, 1) demonstrate the value
that the IVI infrastructure can bring to imaging research and 2) pose a
realistic and broad set of technical challenges that must be met by the
IVI Grid Infrastructure. It is important to note that no single imaging
based study would be likely to exhibit all of the above characteristics,
we would expect each study to have a compelling imaging research
rationale and for each study to pose one or more of the technical
challenges outlined above.
**Magnetism and superconductivity in high temperature superconducting
cuprates**

**Abstract**:

The high temperature copper oxide superconductors show several intricate
phases as a function of doping concentration, temperature, and applied
magnetic field. With doping of holes or electrons, the
antiferromagnetism in the parent compounds is suppressed and the system
goes through several phase transitions from antiferromagnetic insulating
to metallic to superconducting, and then back to metallic again. In the
underdoped regime the metallic state exhibits very unusual properties,
while in the overdoped region normal Fermi liquid behavior is found.
Field-dependent neutron scattering measurements in the electron-doped
materials have been used to establish that in the underdoped pseudogap
regime the competing ground state to (field-suppressed)
superconductivity is antiferromagnetic and insulating. These
investigations have also revealed that these doped systems are
intrinsically inhomogeneous on the nanoscale. For the hole-doped
materials our very recent polarized neutron measurements challenge the
report that the formation of the pseudogap originates from a hidden
magnetic order of circulating currents.

Justification:

Assistance is requested to provide subsistence and travel funds for a
lab manager who will be hired in the Cell Biology and Physiology Center
of the Division of Intramural Research, NHLBI in August, 2007. He is
charged with moving many pieces of delicate equipment and research
materials from Scripps University in San Diego across the country to NIH
in Bethesda. This task will require many trips (mostly flights and a
large rental moving vehicle) between California and Maryland over a
several week period. In addition to direct travel costs, NIH is
requesting to cover the Lab Manager's travel and subsistence expenses
during this period of performance.

We are requesting that the Lab Manager be provided with a one-time
payment for travel subsistence funding in the amount of \$8,467.

The period of performance is August 1 through August 15, 2007

RE: The tariff classification of a flimsy costume from China, Taiwan,
India and Vietnam. Correction to Ruling Number N019296

Dear Ms. Tsiavos:

This replaces Ruling Number N019296, dated November 9, 2007 which
contained a clerical error. In the original ruling letter, the importer
mistakenly listed the style numbers for the costume as 102044 and
102044H when the correct style numbers should have been 112044 and
112044H. A complete corrected ruling follows.

Styles 112044 and 112044H, Matee Costume, are two styles of a flimsy
textile costume set made of knit polyester. Each style consists of a
top, a skirt, a bandanna, arm ties and a belt, with the top imparting
the essential character. The top is overwhelmingly flimsy, with loose
overlock stitched neck and seams, flimsy thin elastics and loose
overlock stitched edges at the arms and bottom.

The applicable subheading for styles 112044 and 112044H, Matee Costume,
will be 9505.90.6000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTSUS), which provides for "Festive, carnival or other entertainment
articles, including magic tricks and practical joke articles; parts and
accessories thereof: Other: Other." The rate of duty will be Free.

Duty rates are provided for your convenience and are subject to change.
The text of the most recent HTSUS and the accompanying duty rates are
provided on World Wide Web at http://www.usitc.gov/tata/hts/.

Please note that separate Federal Trade Commission marking requirements
exist regarding country of origin, fiber content, and other information
that must appear on many textile items. You should contact the Federal
Trade Commission, Division of Enforcement, 6th and Pennsylvania Avenue,
N.W., Washington, D.C., 20580, for information on the applicability of
these requirements to this item. Information can also be found at the
FTC website www.ftc.gov (click on "For

Business" and then on "Textile, Wool, Fur").

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

A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be
provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is
