## Slide 1

## HUD’s Homeless Budget

**FY 2002 - $1.123B**
**FY 2003 - $1.225B**
**FY 2004 - $1.325 (request)**

## Definition of Chronic Homelessness

**“****An unaccompanied homeless individual with a disabling condition who either:**

**  ****has been continuously homeless for **
**   ****1 year or more **_**or**_
**  ****has had at least 4 episodes of     **
**    ****homelessness in the past 3 years”**

## Ending Chronic Homelessness

**Ending chronic homelessness will require a minimum of 150,000 additional permanent supportive housing units**
**HUD’s homeless programs currently creating on average 10,000 new permanent supportive housing units**
**    ****annually**

## Actions to End Chronic Homelessness

**Use Continuum of Care to effect change**
**	****-****	****require 10-year plans**
**	****-****	****encourage use of HUD funds for ****	****	****housing **
**	****-****	****encourage use of mainstream services**
**	****-****	****encourage discharge planning**

## Require 10-year plans

**	****- COC goals and strategy**
**	****- Actions steps**
**	****- Progress**

## Encourage HUD Funds Used for Housing 

**	****- More housing needed**
**	****- Congressional directive: 30% for PH**
**	****- Initiatives:**
**Housing Emphasis Points**
**PH Bonus**

## Encourage Use of Mainstream Programs 

**	****- Narrative on systematically accessing**
**	****- Assess actual performance (APRs)**
**	****- Progress is being made!**

## Discharge Planning 

**	****- Each community must implement approach so people being discharged don’t fall into HUD and other homeless programs **

## Actions to EndChronic Homelessness

**Stimulate Innovative Solutions**
**	****-****	****“Joint Chronic Initiative” w/HHS **
**	****   ****	**** ****and VA**
**	****-   ****	****HUD/DOL “Chronic Employment **

**Ozone Inside Deep Convective Clouds **

## Information in “Column Amounts” Measured using Reflected Sunlight

-  f(logp) is called the Efficiency Factor
-  m-strat has been called the trop residual, assuming f=1
-  since f≠1, trop residual is a misleading concept
-  Actually, (m-strat)/k provides trop mixing ratio weighted with the function pf(logp)

- m is m.r., ps is surf press, pT is trop press, k=0.79 DU/hPa

## Mixing Ratio Wt. Fn.

- Clear Sky

- 5km cloud

## Mixing Ratio Wt. Fn.

- 2-12 km deep convective cloud

## Model of Deep Convective Cloud in Pacific

- From: Observation of near-zero O3 concentrations over the convective Pacific: Effects on air chemistry, Kley et al., Science, Oct 1996.

**DMS**
**CH****3****I**

## Strat Column O3 from TOMS and SAGE

## Determination of O3 M.R. Inside Deep Convective Clouds

- How to get this?

- from MLS

## Effective Cloud Press from OMIUsing Rotational Raman Scattering

- Raman scatt. by air molecules produces the well-known Ring Effect- filling-in of the Solar Fraunhoffer lines.
- Clouds modify Raman scattering, which can be used to measure the cloud pressure.
- Since Raman scattering occurs inside clouds, one measures the effective cloud pressure rather than the cloud-top pressure.
-  The pressure weighting fn appears to be the same as the efficiency  factor  f(logp), introduced earlier, i.e.,  **Ring Effect provides the p****eff**** .**

## Comparison of Cloud Pressures: Aqua/MODIS  vs Aura/OMI  (R>40%)

**Cloud-top Pressure derived from thermal IR**

**Eff. Cloud Pressure derived from Ca H & K Ring (392-398 nm) **

**Comparison of Cloud Pressures: Aqua/MODIS  vs Aura/OMI  (R>40%)**

## O3 M.R. Inside Deep Conv Clouds

## Summary

- Reflected-sunlight instruments, such as OMI, are sensitive to trace gas absorption inside a cloud, but insensitive to gases below.
- For a mono-layer cloud, the mixing ratio weighting  is narrower than that for clear sky, and moves with cloud altitude- allowing one to do “cloud slicing”.
-  In deep-convective clouds absorption primarily occurs inside the cloud volume allowing one to determine in-cloud m.r. by using an “effective cloud pressure”, which can be estimated using Rotational Raman Scattering (Ring Effect).

## Los Angeles County Sheriff 

- Level of effort to incorporate the N-DEx XSD to participate in testing.
- Mapped to N-DEx XSD
- Successfully submitted data for validation
- Over 1040 man hours committed to N-DEx
- Current near real-time submissions via CJIS WAN

## Los Angeles County Sheriff

- Started contribution to N-DEx March 2005
- Started by mapping LARCIS data element to N-DEx schema
- Mapped LARCIS data to N-DEx schema version 1.0.4 (about 300 elements)
- Built processes to extract, transform and submit LARCIS data to N-DEx.
- Successfully submitted approx. 40,000 SOAP* messages (about a month of incident data) to FBI SOAP server)
- *Simple Object Access Protocol (see www.xml.org)

## Los Angeles County Sheriff

- Cost?
- Used an old development server = $0
- Red Hat Linux, Oracle BPEL = $40,700
- One consultant = $72,800
- = $113,500

## Los Angeles County Sheriff

- WHY?
- N-DEx Bundle Ver1.0.4 has about 300 elements
- LARCIS has 130 tables and over 3,000 elements
- Finding the right data element to map difficult
- Designed a database just for that purpose
- Load all the table columns into the database
- Mark the column that has no value (reduces count)
- Further reduce data elements by ranking the data relevance
- Map remaining LARCIS to N-DEx (reasonable time)
- Generate the mapping reports from the database

## Los Angeles County Sheriff

- RECOMMENDATIONS
- Need a development tool
- Supports the creation of mapping
- Convert to XML document
- Web services (SOAP)
- Eases the learning curve
- Allows for a faster adoption
- We used Oracle BPEL Desinger and Process Manager

## Los Angeles County Sheriff

- RECOMMENDATIONS (cont.)
- Dedicated Staff
- Knowledge of GJXDM
- Starting out mapping with few elements, then build the process to produce the XML document (can be sent via email)
- FBI feedback
- Repeat the process until you have the complete mapping

- GOOD LUCK
- 

## Contract Agreement DBI-9975989

- b. The second round of global phrap assembly was done on April 1, 2002 on 77,022 Project ESTs. Of these, 70,074 were 5' ESTs and 6,948 were 3' ESTs. They were assembled into 11,758 contigs.
- c. ESTs selected from each contig and those of unassembled ESTs are the resources for singleton selection. Altogether, about 32,000 ESTs are in this resource pool for further screening.
- d. ESTs containing sequences found to match retro-elements, *E. coli*, phage, mitochondrial, and chloro-plast gene sequences are removed. Sequence com-parison is done using the cross_match program.
- e. Validation process—Redundant ESTs are further screened and removed by comparing 3' sequence data with 3' sequences of previously identified sing-letons. The resulting singletons were rearrayed for probe distribution.
- 2. Mapping results
- As of Aug. 27, 8,789 probes have been sent out to the 10 labs and mapping data have been returned for 46% of the distributed probes. At Albany, map-ping data are processed to display the mapped probes by chromosome bin position, defined by the deletion line break points. The Project has assigned a coordinator from among the investigators for each homoeologous chromosome group who review and validate the assignments of the probe locations. Each probe may identify more than one loci and, at this point, the validated probe locations account for 7,985 individual loci mapped to chromosome bins.

- Bioinformatics personnel: Data Curator **Shiaoman Chao**, based at Albany, and Bioinformatics Pro-grammer **Hugh Edwards**, based at Cornell Univ., are supported by collaboration with USDA ARS bioinformatics specialists in Albany (**G. Lazo**) and at Cornell (**D. Matthews**).
