BASED ON DATA THROUGH 1200 UTC MARCH 15 2009

THE WEATHER SYSTEM THAT HAS BROUGHT THE UNSETTLED...SHOWERY WEATHER 
TO THE 50TH STATE IS LOCATED 365 MILES WEST NORTHWEST OF KAUAI EARLY 
SUNDAY MORNING...AT COORDINATES 24.2N164.7W. THE DIRECTION OF 
MOVEMENT OF THE LOW HAS BEEN SOUTH AT AROUND 15 MPH DURING THE PAST 
5 HOURS. THE CYCLONIC FLOW OF THIS LOW REACHES OUT TO AS FAR AS 800 
MILES. TOWERING CUMULUS CLOUDS EXTENDS OUT TO 250 MILES EAST 
SEMICIRCLE OF THE CENTER. BETWEEN THIS CLOUD FIELD AND KAUAI ARE 
SCATTERED TO BROKEN CUMULI FORM CLOUDS. 

THE PREVAILING WIND FLOW ACROSS THE MAIN HAWAIIAN ISLANDS IS FROM 
THE SOUTHWEST...BLOWING AT 20 TO 25 MPH. IN THIS FLOW ARE A COUPLE 
OF SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST ORIENTED BANDS OF SHOWER BEARING CLOUDS 
LYING ACROSS OAHU AND MAUI COUNTIES. THESE TWO BANDS EXTENDS 
SOUTHWESTWARD FROM THE ISLANDS UP TO 300 MILES. SOME OF THESE 
SHOWERS ARE HEAVY IN INTENSITY. THIS BIG ISLAND IS PRETTY 
SHOWER-FREE...WHILE KAUAI COUNTY HAS A COUPLE OF SHOWERS MOVING 
THROUGH. THE TOPS OF THESE CLOUDS ARE BETWEEN 10 AND 15 THOUSAND 
FEET.  

CUMULONIMBUS CLOUDS/CB/...SCATTERED IN COVERAGE...ARE PRESENT 
BETWEEN 200 AND 850 MILES NORTH OF THE MAIN HAWAIIAN ISLANDS... 
BETWEEN 24N AND 32N FROM 147W TO 161W. MOST OF THE CB TOPS ARE 
AROUND 42000 FEET...WITH HIGHEST AT 50000 FT. WHAT APPEARS TO BE A 
TROUGH IS NOTED 150 MILES EAST OF THE BIG ISLAND. IT EXTENDS FROM 
22N151W TO 18N153W TO 14N158W. THE TROUGH HAS SHIFTED SLIGHTLY EAST 
DURING THE PAST 6 TO 8 HOURS...AND IS MARKED BY SCATTERED TCU/S.

THE AREA OF MULTILAYERED CLOUDS EAST OF THE TROUGH HAS DISSIPATED 
CONSIDERABLE DURING THE PAST COUPLE OF HOURS.

THE SHARPING OF AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH JUST WEST OF THE DATELINE HAS 
CAUSED AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE ALONG 175W LONGITUDE TO SHARPEN... 
CAUSING THE HIGH CIRRUS CLOUDS TO ADVANCE NORTH FROM 18N TO 22N IN 
THE PAST FEW HOURS. WITH THE UPPER LEVEL LOW NORTHWEST OF KAUAI...IN 
THE SAME SPOT AS THE SURFACE LOW...THE MAIN HAWAIIAN ISLANDS MAY BE 
IN THE PATH OF THESE CIRRUS CLOUDS LATER TODAY.

Borghetti, J. R., D. P. Chena and S. V. G. Nogueira (1993).  Installation of a 
fish migration channel for spawning at Itaipu. International Water Power and Dam 
Construction.  45:24-25.
	
A fish migration channel for spawning at the Itaipu (Brazil and Paraguay) 
hydroelectric station was installed to improve fish recovery downstream from the 
dam. The complex had caused a significant reduction in the spawning area, with a 
deleterious effect on the reproductive cycle of the native species. An 
experimental model of a fish migration channel was installed, having a system of 
'tank steps' at the foot of the dam, a sheet-metal ladder, a serpentine-style 
channel for the spawning of the fish, and two marginal lagoons for incubation of 
the eggs and growth of the larvae. The return migration of the hatchlings will 
be made through a trough linking the marginal lagoons directly to the Parana 
River. The first phase of the project is formed by a 56-m-long ladder. 
Preliminary data from the first phase has proved that fish (3000/day) of 
tropical climates can ascend ladders exceeding 8 m. The results of the first 
phase indicate the efficiency of the experimental project, with the entry and 
ascendancy of fish in a migration channel ladder. These data now provide the 
technical basis for implementation of the complementary spawning channel stage.

Abstract: 
Abstract: Using data from the Comprehensive Energetic Particle and Pitch Angle Distribution (CEPPAD)-High Sensitivity Telescope (HIST) instrument on the Polar spacecraft and ground magnetometer data from the 210 meridian magnetometer chain, we test the ULF wave drift resonance theory proposed to explain relativistic electron phase space density enhancements. We begin by investigating changes in electron flux due to the Dst effect. The Dst effect refers to the adiabatic response of relativistic electrons to changes in the magnetic field characterized by the Dst index. The Dst effect, assuming no loss or addition of new electrons, produces reversible order of magnitude changes in relativistic electrons flux measured at fixed energy, but it cannot account for the flux enhancement that occurs in the recovery phase of most storms. Liouvilles theorem states that phase space density expressed in terms of constant adiabatic invariants is unaffected by adiabatic field changes and ! thus is insensitive to the Dst effect. It is therefore useful to express flux measurements in terms of phase space densities at constant first, second and third adiabatic invariants. The phase space density is determined from the CEPPAD-HIST electron detector that measures differential directional flux of electrons from 0.7 to 9 MeV and the Tsyganenko 96 field model. The analysis is done for January to June 1997. The ULF wave drift resonance theory that we test proposes that relativistic electrons are accelerated by an m=2 toroidal or poloidal mode wave whose frequency equals the drift frequency of the electron. The theory is tested by comparing the relativistic electron phase space densities to wave power determined at three ground stations with L* values of 4.0, 5.7 and 6.2. Comparison of the wave data to the phase space densities shows that five out of nine storm events are consistent with the ULF wave drift resonance mechanism, three out of nine give ambiguous support to! the model, and one event has high ULF wave power at the drift frequency of the electrons but no corresponding phase space density enhancement suggesting that ULF wave power alone is not sufficient to cause an electron response. Two explanations of the anomalous event are investigated including excessive loss of electrons to the magnetopause and wave duration.

comm-doingwell : On Seaborg I find the job queues much faster and better managed 
than the system used on for instance Killeen in previous years. 
Right now I am mostly running small jobs, I am hoping this 
remains true when I start submitting long jobs.
comm-dodifferent : Application software for analyzing model outputs is lacking.  Tools 
for quick analysis of  model outputs will be really useful. 
comm-othercenters : The other center I used extensively is the NCSA at UI, 
Urbana-Champaign.  I  started using NERSC again after a gap
of few years (mainly as a result of NCSA doing all the things I need
much better than NERSC) and have to say that it has vastly 
improved.  It now compares quite favorably with NCSA. My only 
problem (complaint) now is the lack of plotting software at NERSC 
( at NCSA I can use on the origin machines AVS, Techplot etc.,).  
The available software such as DX seem to be poorly configured 
(DX for instance doesn\'t support netcdf as it is presently 
configured on Seaborg).

modified in practice, since Politics "is a perpetual compromise between abstract right and actual possibilities; and he illustrated this proposition by pointing out some of these inevitable compromises, such as majority rule and the dis-franchisement of minors, criminals, the insane, &c. &c. Such compromises, so far as the disfranchised are concerned, are justified only, the speaker said, by a presumption of consent. In this connexion he discussed the principle of the "consent of the governed," showirig that actual consent is practically impossible, and that all such consent rests on a legal presumption. Our fathers, when they laid down this very principle in the Declaration of Independence, were proceeding to destroy a government resting on a consent as truly presumed as that on which ours rests today. They were right in doing so, because all legal presumptions should rest on public utility, and should fall when no longer so supported,

NASA AWARDS TWO GENERAL AVIATION 
PROPULSION COOPERATIVE AGREEMENTS

        NASA's Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, has 
awarded  two cooperative agreements in support of the 
Agency's General Aviation Propulsion (GAP) program.

       Williams International, Walled Lake, MI, was selected 
for negotiation of a $37 million cooperative agreement to 
develop a turbine engine. Under this four-year agreement, the 
company will develop and flight demonstrate break-through, 
low-cost turbine engine propulsion systems.  The turbine 
engine concepts are for light general aviation aircraft with 
six seats or less and cruising airspeeds greater than 200 
knots.  The work will be conducted at their facilities in 
Walled Lake as well as at Lewis, NASA's Langley Research 
Center, Hampton, VA, and NASA's Dryden Flight Research 
Center, Edwards, CA.

        The major goal of the Williams International 
agreement is to develop technologies and manufacturing 
processes for low-cost, environmentally compliant, innovative 
turbine engine propulsion systems.

        Teledyne Continental Motors, Mobile, AL, was selected 
for negotiation of a $9.5 million cooperative agreement to 
develop an Intermittent Combustion Engine.

        Under this three-year agreement, the company will 
develop and flight demonstrate affordable, lightweight, 
innovative Intermittent Combustion (IC) propulsion systems.  
The IC concepts are for entry-level general aviation aircraft 
with single engines, four seats and cruising airspeed of less 
than 200 knots.  The work will be conducted at their 
facilities in Mobile and at Lewis.

        The major goal of the Teledyne Continental Motors 
agreement is to develop technologies and manufacturing 
processes that reduce engine prices by one half while 
substantially improving reliability, maintainability as well 
as meeting future emission and noise requirements.

THERMAL EVOLUTION OF SEDIMENTARY BASINS IN ALASKA

An interpretive report of thermal maturity-patterns in Alaska 
was published in paper form in 1996 as USGS Bulletin 2142. 
This report, consisting of six papers by both USGS and non-
USGS authors, presented detailed studies of most of the major 
sedimentary-basin types found in Alaska: a forearc basin 
(Alaskan Peninsula), a large foreland basin (Colville Basin), 
and a tectonically dissected basin fragment (Kandik "basin"). 
In addition to the vitrinite-reflectance and conodont color-
alteration-index data included elsewhere on this CD-ROM, 
these reports made use of many other varieties of thermal-
maturity data, including fluid-inclusion, oxygen-isotope, 
illite crystallinity, apatite fission-track, and heat-flow 
data.

This directory contains a searchable PDF version of this 
report that it is extensively cross-linked to allow for easy

anaemia, scurvy, caused by improperly cooked food, sameness of diet, overwork, want of fresh vegetables, overheated and badly ventilated houses; rheumatism, pneumonia, bronchitis, enteritis, cystitis and other acute diseases, from exposure to wet and cold; debility and chronic diseases due to excesses. One case of typhoid fever occurred in Forty Mile last fall, probably due to drinking water polluted with decayed vegetable matter.
"In selecting men to relieve in this country I beg to submit a few remarks, some of which will be of assistance to the medical examiners in making their recommendations.
"Men should be sober, strong and healthy. They should be practical men, able to adapt themselves quickly to their surroundings. Special care should be taken to see that their lungs are sound, that they are free from rheumatism  and rheumatic tendency, and that their joints, especially knee joints, are strong and have never been weakened by injury, synovitis or other disease. It is also very important to consider their temperaments. Men should be of cheerful, hopeful dispositions and willing workers. Those of sullen, morose natures, although they may be good workers, are very apt, as soon as the novelty of the country wears off, to become dissatisfied, pessimistic and melancholy."
Numerous letters from Dawson City and Circle City speak of scurvy as a disease which in the winter time. seems to be prevalent. In almost every instance the writer urges that lime-juice should form one of the essentials in the Klondiker's pack.
According to the accepted medical authority, scurvy is the result of an insufficient supply of potash salts, owing to an inadequate diet of fresh vegetables. But I  the mere administration of these salts will not prevent

                        -Dr.  Seuss 
    The Colliding Detector 
    was loaded for bear.  
    They had neutron detection 
    and silicon flair. 
    And a  great deal of wires  
    (or current emmiters)
    and a muonic system 
    (with a  bad case of jitters). 
    And of course the whole group 
    really got on quite nicely.  
    They all worked  together 
    for  TOP quite  precisely.  
    And tho their  detector  
    was  arguably  ugly:   
    "Got a  magnetic field!" 
    they would say oh so smugly.
   
    But the D-zero people 
    were ready, quite plain.
    With their huge box of iron.
    And unity gain.
    Got a transition thing 
    and their own wires too.
    But no magnetic field.   
    Not the best they can do.
    So they bought one!  
    "Next time we'll have B and then P
    and then we'll be the best 
    on this whole big prairie."
    And from far far away,  
    watching all of the thrills
    Lived the big DOE 
    who paid all of the bills.
    And they loved both detectors  
    with hardly a doubt.
    But they had to find something 
    or else they'd be out!
    Cause they answered to Congress.  
    The meanest of mean!
    Killed the Collider. 
    Killed it quick.
    Killed it clean.
    So they said to their lab 
    from the place where they stood
    "Here's  the  money.  
    Find  TOP  quarks. 
    And  please,  make  it  good!"
    So the CDF group 
    in their own quiet way
    found a one  in  a  million.  
    Or  more! Who can say?
    And  who  cares?  
    But does D-zero see it there too?
    No they don't. 
    Well not really.  
    But then maybe they do!
    It's  such  fun  to  know  facts, 
    which  were  thought  to  be  easy
    were really  quite  slippery.
    And  also quite sneezy!
    And so there you have it.   
    The TOP's in the bag.
    And so  on  and  so forth 
    can rightfully  brag.
    But the TOP quark's still out there.  
    Could  really  be  true!
    And who'll really find it?
    Maybe me.   
    Maybe YOU!

dine with their families; but the women and children invariably eat at home, and when they wait upon the males in the town hall they always turn their backs to them while the men are dining, it being considered a gross breach of good manners for a woman to look at a man when he is eating.
After breakfast the male Innuits start out, if the weather permits, to hunt or fish, as the case may be. If a driving storm prevents them, then in-door work is resumed or recourse to sleep again assumed. At some time in the afternoon the fire is usually drawn from the hot stoves on the hearth, the water and a kantag of chamber-lye poured over them, which, arising in dense clouds of vapor, gives notice (by its presence and its horrible ammoniacal odor) to the delighted inmates that the bath is on. The kashga is heated to suffocation, it is full of smoke, and the outside men run in from their huts, with wisps of dry grass for towels, and bunches of aldertwigs to flog their naked bodies. They throw off their garments; they shout and dance and whip themselves into profuse perspiration as they caper in the hot vapor. More of their disgusting substitute for soap is rubbed on, and produces a lather which they rinse off with cold water; and, to cap the full enjoyment of this satanic bath, these naked actors rush out and roll in a snow-bank or plunge into the icy flood of some lake or river adjoining, as the season warrants. This is the most enjoyable occasion of an Innuit's existence, so he solemnly affirms. Nothing else affords him. a tithe of the infinite pleasure which this orgie gives him. To us, however, there is nothing so offensive about him as that stench which such a performance arouses.
When a bath is over, the smoke-hole is reopened (it was closed during the process !), and fresh air descends upon those men who sit around upon the platforms stupefied by that smoke and weak from their profuse perspiration. Slowly these terrible odors leave the kashga, and only the minor ones remain, rendering it quite habitable once more. Night comes on: the huge stone lamps are filled'with seal-oil and lighted; the men soon lop down for sleep in their reindeer-skins or parkas, removing their trousers only, which they roll up and use as pillows, tucking the parka snugly over and around their bended knees, which are drawn up tightly to the abdomen. In the morning whoever happens to awake first relights the lamp, if any of the fluid remains over; if not, he goes to his own cache and gets a supply. If he is a bachelor, he attends then

Title: City of Paris, France

Description:

This highly detailed view of the City of Paris 49.0N, 0.0E) shows a varied 
land use pattern in great detail.  Several airports are clearly seen such
as  the two major international airports of Orly and Le Bourget.  Paris was 
founded in pre-Roman times on an island in the Seine River and continued as
a  Roman outpost.  The easily defensible location was one of the keys to
growth.  Other factors include easy access by river and the productive
hinterland.

Subject: Docket 00N-1396 & Docket 00D-1598

Dear FDA folks:
I can't say this enough:
GENETICALLY ENGINEERED PRODUCTS MUST BE LABELED!

    I can't understand why, despite overwhelming consumer demand, the FDA has 
failed to require ecological safety testing or mandatory labeling of 
genetically engineered 'foods.'  (well I can understand that it all comes 
down to big business...)

    You are putting our health and our environment at risk and you are 
depriving American citizens of the right to know or choose what we are 
eating.  I am a vegetarian, and I don't want to eat vegetables poisoned with 
dead animal genes.  How dare the FDA decide that I don't need to know what is 
in the food I eat. 

In my opinion the FDA must:

*require mandatory pre-market comprehensive environmental review. Unlike 
conventional pollutants, where a given amount of pollutant causes a limited 
amount of damage, a small number of mutant genes could have a population 
explosion and reproduce forever, causing unlimited and irreparable damage.

*require mandatory labeling of GE products.  Without mandatory labeling, 
neither consumers nor health professionals will know if an allergic or toxic 
reaction was the result of a genetically engineered food. Consumers would be 
deprived of the critical knowledge needed to hold food producers liable 
should any of these novel products be hazardous.

*end your relationship with the industries you purport to be regulating. 
People have been allowed to work for a biotech company, then work for the FDA 
writing the regulatory rules on that company's product, then go back to 
working for the company.  According to my sources, Ninety-two percent of FDA 
advisory committee meetings had at least one conflict of interest.  How can 
you operate this way?  Have you no moral conscience?  We are talking about 
the health and safety of our one and only planet, and the children that 
inhabit it.

sincerely,
Dena C. WIener

...NUMEROUS DUST DEVILS DEVELOPING ACROSS THE DELTA THIS AFTERNOON...

DUE TO THE VERY DRY AND WARM WEATHER WE HAVE EXPERIENCED COMBINING
WITH NUMEROUS FARMERS PLOWING THERE FIELDS DUST DEVILS HAVE BEEN
PROMINENT ACROSS THE DELTA TODAY. THE PLOWING OF FIELDS AND LACK OF
RAIN HAVE MADE FOR VERY DRY AND LOOSE SOIL. AS PARCELS GET WARMER THAN
THE SURROUNDING AIR IT BEGINS TO RISE. AS THESE AIR PARCELS RISE THEY
BEGINTO ROTATE THUS PICKING UP SOME OF THIS LOOSE SOIL...AND BAM YOU
HAVE A DUST DEVIL. THIS COULD BE THE CASE OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS AS
WE EXPECTING TO GET EVEN WARMER WITH NO RAIN EXPECTED UNTIL LATE THIS
WEEKEND OR EVEN NEXT WEEK. 

THERE ARE NO SERIOUS CONCERNS WITH THESE AS THE WINDS ARE LIKELY
LESS THAN 25 MPH. THE ONLY PROBLEM COULD BE TO MOTORISTS WHERE THEY
MIGHT CROSS ROADS AND VERY BRIEFLY LOWER VISIBILITIES.

Subject: fnpcc web server

Hello all,

together with Marian we have upgraded fnpcc to use apache 2.0.47 and php
4.3.2.

I'd like to post information on the compilation so for the future you'd
be able to perform the same thing more readily:

1. get apache from the official web server:
www.apache.org

2. get php from the official web:
www.php.net

(In case only php upgrade is needed, skip 1 and all points dealing with
apache)

3. Unzip apache and php in /usr/local/src/

4. Compile apache:
./configure --enable-so --prefix=/usr/local/apache-2.x.y
--exec-prefix=/usr/local/apache-2.x.y
make
make install

5. Compile php:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache-2.x.y
--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache-2.x.y/bin/apxs
--with-apache2=/usr/local/src/httpd-2.x.y  --with-mysql
--with-oci8=/local/ups/prd/oracle_client/v8_1_7/Linux-2
make
make install

Where x.y are major and minor apache2 version numbers.

6. Edit php.ini-dist and copy it to
/usr/local/apache-2.x.y/lib/phjp.ini. Do not forget to enable
register_globals in the php.ini.

7. Edit /etc/rc.d/init/httpd2 respectively.

fertile belt which has been called the " Rainbow of the West." More
Cultivable land will be found in the forest region than has been lost
from the prairie.'
Zrd. The Forest.Under this head I include all of the North-
ern Department about which I have not already spoken, an area of
about 480,000 square miles, placed between the Northern Division
and the prairie region.
The forest country assumes a little of the character sometimes
of the one and sometimes of the other. As we said above, the
prairie is encroaching upon the forest. Aided by the destroying
element it has reached close to the banks of lakes " la Biche "
and " Froid," to the north of Beaver River. Further to the west
it touches Upper Athabaska River. Peace River and even Moun-
tain River, (rivire aux Liards) have their prairies. But as these
small divisions and distinctions necessary in detail are not so when
treating the subject in a general way, I shall still use the term
" forest," as including all that is within the line I traced to
separate the Northern from the Southern Division and the Une
drawn to mark the boundary of the prairie.
In the forest country, such as I have described it, are to be
found nearly all of the geological features which mark the other
regions. Crystalline rocks, which border it almost throughout its
whole length, enter it at its south-eastern extremity. To the west
of Lake Winnipeg begins the Silurian system, which is contiguous
to primary rocks almost uninterruptedly up to the Rocky Moun-
tains. Then come the other formations which share this vast
region.
If the word " forest " conveys an idea of labor, of suffering and
often of want, to the settler who clears his holding with painful toil,
it sounds far differently to the ear of the undaunted lumberer who
seeks, from this great growth of the earth, its contingent of riches
and its assistance, indispensable to colonization, to navigation and
to arts and manufactures, that he may give to the wealthy the
luxury of furniture and equipages, to the poor the tools necessary
for their work, to all a greater or smaller part of their habitations.
The Canadian who has visited the timber yards and wharves of
his country, and who sees the useful wealth piled in these wood
stores, must experience satisfaction at the thought that from the
forests of Canada, comes the rich, various and extensive supply.
