**Repairs at City Tavern**

The City Tavern, completed on the eve of the American Revolution, served
the elite class of 1773 and upcoming years. More than a bar at the time,
the 18^th^ Century tavern was a center for political discussions,
business transactions and social events. Members of the Continental
Congress dined, lodged and celebrated here.

Due to the decay of the railing, at the rear end of the reconstructed
City Tavern, Independence maintenance staff replaced the railing with a
temporary wooden rail. For safety purposes, the wooden structure will
remain until the new railing is constructed, painted, and placed to
serve as a replica of the original. Staff is in the process of
installing one of the two railings this week.

The most common original architectural bronze finish used in GSA\'s
historic buildings was a rubbed finish. Historically, a rubbed finish
was a smooth satin finish produced by mechanically grinding, then hand
rubbing the surface of the metal with pumice and solvent, in the
direction of the grain. The fine surface texture characteristic of a
rubbed finish is dependent upon the use of successively finer abrasives
to smooth out the directional texture (parallel scratches) produced by
the initial wheel or belt grinding.

\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\--

In current trade terminology, a satin finish is often indistinguishable
from a contemporary brushed finish, the least expensive directional
finish after the mill production stage of fabrication. Like a rubbed
finish, a brushed finish is produced mechanically by abrading the metal
surface in the direction of the grain, but the abrasion ends with a
coarser grit and the manual finishing is omitted. By typically
terminating with grit no. 80, brushing leaves visible lines on a surface
of the metal. The coarse, linear texture characteristic of a
contemporary brushed satin finish does not match the smooth surface and
subtle gloss of older architectural bronze and is not acceptable for
fabrication and refinishing of bronze in historic buildings.

To replicate a traditional satin or rubbed finish, insert the following
description in all specifications involving bronze fabrication of
off-site (mechanical) refinishing.

This analysis for July and August SST data is based on COADS through
1997, and monthly NCEP updates since then. For some regions I
bias-corrected these real-time updates by up to +/-0.3C to adjust for
differences in observational platform mixes between instantaneous
reports ("GTS") and the longer-lag collection mix of COADS. The three
regions analyzed here are: (a) The full Gulf of Mexico Basin, (b) the
northwestern corner of the Gulf of Mexico currently impacted by 'RITA',
and (c) the full Caribbean Basin. In terms of relative rank, the
northwestern Gulf had clearly the highest SST observed in this century
in any August (actually any month) on record, ditto for the full Gulf of
Mexico, but with 1998, 1962, 1944 closer on its heels, and being second
only to August 1998 (and 1901) in the Caribbean which also tends to have
higher temperatures in September than in August, contrary to the Gulf of
Mexico.

Three other points to make: (1) All three regions have individual
observations before the years shown here, but those are erratic/with
large gaps in between months, so I excluded them; (2) COADS data is not
corrected for instrument conversions (such as the 'open
bucket'-to-'machine-room-intake' switch right after Pearl Harbor),
therefore the pre-1940 temperatures may be too low by up to 0.4C -- this
does not impact the ranking for August 2005 in the last 100 years; (3) I
double-checked the number of observations for the northwestern Gulf of
Mexico SST, and am reassured that this is buttressed by thousands of
observations in August 2005, so if it looks like a statistical outlier,
it is because 'Mother Nature' went outside its normal bounds of
behavior, not because of an individual 'rogue' observation(al error).

One final note: the SST data are binned in 2x2 lat-lon boxes, and then
area-averaged with a standard 'Grads' program. Given the flatness of SST
gradients in the three regions analyzed here, it does not make much
difference how one averages the data.

>
> *Action to be taken*: See Paragraph 3
>
> *Related Documents*: MSC Circ. 862 dated 22 May 1998

# Introduction

1.1 There are approximately 40,000 maritime Inmarsat-C terminals in
service at this time. MSC Circ. 862 dated 22 May 1998 defines Inmarsat-C
distress button functionality that is inconsistent with all Inmarsat-C
products currently in service and available on the market.

# Discussion

2.1 The majority of Inmarsat-C equipment delivered since the
introduction of Inmarsat-C service utilizes 2 buttons on the front panel
to initiate a distress alert. Design changes to hardware, firmware and
software, changes to product operating instructions, and the required
type approvals needed to make the equipment conform to Circ. 862 will
require a significant amount of time to implement. The required
implementation time is a function of the available staffing of the
manufacturers, and of Inmarsat. Inmarsat staff must review test data
following modification and testing of all equipment and in some cases
must witness these tests which are carried out in the countries of the
Inmarsat-C equipment manufacturers; Denmark, Japan, Korea and the United
States.\
\
**3 Action requested of the Sub-Committee**

The United States recommends that the Sub-Committee amend MSC Circ. 862
taking into consideration the time required to implement the recommended
functionality and complete the required type approvals. The United
States recommends that the final sentence in the first paragraph of
Circ. 862 be changed to read as follows:

"The Committee was of the opinion that such clarifications would assist
Member Governments in deciding whether equipment installed on or after 1
February 2000 meets these requirements."

Recent research has shown that *C. acetobutylicum* can be grown on a
variety of feedstocks. Concurrent with this investigation is an
exploration of important and useful compounds that can be produced via
microbial fermentation using biomass. This report focuses on the
production of commercially useful esters by *C. acetobutylicum*. Isoamyl
acetate and ethyl acetate are esters used for food and beverage
flavorings. Alcohol acetyltransferases (AATase I and AATase II) from the
yeast *Saccharomyces cerevisiae* are responsible for the production of
these esters from acetyl-CoA and alcohols. The *ATF1* and *ATF2* genes
have been cloned and expressed in *E. coli* and *ATF2* has been
expressed in *C. acetobutylicum* to study the effectiveness of
expressing AATases in bacteria. Isoamyl acetate production from the
substrate isoamyl alcohol was determined by head-space gas analysis on a
gas chromatograph. Data indicates that AATase I produces almost twice as
much isoamyl acetate as AATase II when expressed from a high-copy
expression vector. Mutant strains of *C. acetobutylicum* that have
altered levels of acetyl-CoA are being studied for their effect on ester
production. The wide range of substrates available in

*C. acetobutylicum* makes it an ideal organism for investigating ester
production in bacteria.
**Steps for Developing a Logic Model\***

> 1\. Determine the **purpose** of the logic model, who will use it and
> for what? Is your purpose to develop a work plan, to talk with
> stakeholders about the program or intervention, or to develop an
> evaluation plan?
>
> 2\. **Convene stakeholders.** Who should participate? Program planners
> and managers, epidemiologists, and groups with a stake in program
> outcomes.
>
> 3\. Determine a **focus** for the logic model. Will the logic model
> depict a single intervention, a multiyear intervention, or a
> comprehensive picture of your HDSP program? Determine what level of
> detail is needed to make this a useful tool.
>
> 4\. Understand the situation. Use the program **objective or goal as
> your anchor.** Set **priorities** and **clarify** expectations.
>
> 5\. **Explore** the research, knowledge base, and what others have
> done/are doing. Compile research findings and lessons learned,
> applicable program theory, and resources. Identify and discuss
> assumptions you are making and contextual factors.
>
> 6\. **Construct a series of linked activities and outcomes or
> statements using a "left-to-right" or "right-to-left" approach. Then
> connect the activities with arrows to show linkages.**

RE: The tariff classification of footwear from Italy

Dear Mr. Crain:

In your letter dated February 15, 2007, on behalf of Tecnica USA, you
requested a tariff classification ruling for three half pair samples of
women's boots, identified as style name "Chantal GTX" with style
#26006500001, and style name "Vicky GTX" with style #'s 26006900002 and
26007000001. All three boots cover the ankle, but not the knee and have
textile material uppers and rubber/plastic outsoles.

Style name "Chantal GTX" is a cold weather boot, approximately 12-inches
in height, with a predominately textile material upper that features a
soft, fleece-like textile lining, which includes the addition of a
waterproof Gore-Tex ® fabric lining layer for protection against water
penetration. The other two sample boots, with style name "Vicky GTX" and
style numbers 26006900002 and 26007000001, are also cold weather boots
with predominately man-made textile material uppers; they are
approximately 10½ and 9½ inches in height respectively and they also
have waterproof Gore-Tex ® linings for protection against water
penetration. You state in your letter that these boots will all be
valued at over \$12 per pair.

The applicable subheading for the three boots, identified as style name
"Chantal GTX"-style #26006500001, style name "Vicky GTX"-style
#26006900002 and style name "Vicky GTX"-style #26007000001, will be
6404.19.2060, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS),
which provides for footwear with outer soles of rubber/plastics and
uppers of textile material: other: footwear designed to be worn over, or
in lieu of, other footwear as a protection against water, oil, or grease
or chemicals or cold or inclement weather. The general rate of duty will
be 37.5% ad valorem.

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/.

We are returning the samples as you requested.

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
imported. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact
National Import Specialist Richard Foley at 646-733-3042.

**§1.468 Relationship to Federal statutes protecting research subjects
against compulsory disclosure of their identity.**

\(a\) *Research privilege description*. There may be concurrent coverage
of patient identifying information by the provisions of §§1.460 through
1.499 of this part and by administrative action taken under §303(a) of
the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 241(d) and the implementing
regulations at 42 CFR Part 2a); or §502(c) of the Controlled Substances
Act (21 U.S.C. 872(c) and the implementing regulations at 21 CFR
1316.21). These "research privilege" statutes confer on the Secretary of
Health and Human Services and on the Attorney General, respectively, the
power to authorize researchers conducting certain types of research to
withhold from all persons not connected with the research the names and
other identifying information concerning individuals who are the
subjects of the research.

\(b\) *Effect of concurrent coverage*. Sections 1.460 through 1.499 of
this part restrict the disclosure and use of information about patients,
while administrative action taken under the research privilege statutes
and implementing regulations protects a person engaged in applicable
research from being compelled to disclose any identifying
characteristics of the individuals who are the subjects of that
research. The issuance under §§1.490 through 1.499 of this part of a
court order authorizing a disclosure of information about a patient does
not affect an exercise of authority under these research privilege
statutes. However, the research privilege granted under 21 CFR
291.505(g) to treatment programs using methadone for maintenance
treatment does not protect from compulsory disclosure any information
which is permitted to be disclosed under those regulations. Thus, if a
court order entered in accordance with §§1.490 through 1.499 of this
part authorizes a VA facility to disclose certain information about its
patients, the facility may not invoke the research privilege under 21
CFR 291.505(g) as a defense to a subpoena for that information.
(Authority: 38 U.S.C. 7334)

**§1.469 Patient access and restrictions on use.**

\(a\) *Patient access not prohibited*. Sections 1.460 through 1.499 of
this part do not prohibit a facility from giving a patient access to his
or her own records, including the opportunity to inspect and copy any
records that VA maintains about the patient, subject to the provisions
of the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a(d)(1)) and 38 CFR 1.577. If the
patient is accompanied, giving access to the patient and the
accompanying person will require a written consent by the patient which
is provided in accordance with §1.475 of this part.

\(b\) *Restrictions on use of information*. Information obtained by
patient access to patient record is subject to the restriction on use of
this information to initiate or substantiate any criminal charges
against the patient or to conduct any criminal investigation of the
patient as provided for under §1.461(d)(1) of this part. (Authority: 38
U.S.C. 7334)

# DOE News Release

### FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

### Oct 31, 2002

## **DOE Completes Testing on Three Hydrogen Fueled Vehicles**

The U.S. Department of Energy, through its Advanced Vehicle Testing
Activity, has finished testing three hydrogen-fueled vehicles with
internal combustion engines. The primary testing objective was to
evaluate the safety and reliability of operating vehicles on hydrogen
and blended hydrogen fuels; secondary objectives included quantifying
vehicle emissions, cost and performance.

The three vehicles were operated safely for 26,000 miles on 100 percent
hydrogen gas and blends of hydrogen gas and compressed natural gas
(CNG).

The vehicles were fueled at the Arizona Public Service (APS) Alternative
Fuel Pilot Plant in Phoenix, Arizona. The hydrogen is generated and
compressed onsite by operating a Proton Exchange Membrane fuel cell in
reverse, and the CNG is compressed on site from low-pressure natural gas
street service. The hydrogen/CNG facility was constructed and is
operated by APS and Electric Transportation Applications, in cooperation
with the Advanced Vehicle Testing Activity.

The hydrogen and hydrogen/CNG test vehicles, powered by internal
combustion engines, included a Ford F-150 pickup running on up to 50
percent hydrogen, a second F-150 pickup running on up to 30 percent
hydrogen, and a Mercedes van running on 100 percent hydrogen. The
emissions were extremely low compared to a gasoline- fueled F-150 and to
California emissions standards. The testing also suggested that it might
be possible to extend oil change intervals well beyond the conventional
3,000 miles with the use of hydrogen/CNG fuel.

For additional information on the above vehicle testing visit the
Advanced Vehicle Testing Activity's Web pages at
<http://ev.inel.gov/fop/hydro.html>

DOE, through its Advanced Vehicle Testing Activity, conducts Baseline
Performance, Accelerated Reliability and Fleet testing on advanced
technology vehicles. (The Advanced Vehicle Testing Activity is a
component of DOE's FreedomCAR and Vehicle Technologies Program).

These elements of the Advanced Vehicle Testing Activity are managed for
the DOE Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy from the Idaho
National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory in Idaho Falls, Idaho.
