Tuesday, May 15, at 11 AM Bldg. 38A, B2 NCBI Library Rare amino acid replacements:
 a new class of characters for genome-wide phylogenetic studies 
Igor B. Rogozin National Center for Biotechnology Information, National Library of Medicine, 
National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20894, USA 

As the number of sequenced genomes from diverse walks of life rapidly increases, phylogenetic analysis
 is entering a new era: reconstruction of the evolutionary history of organisms on the basis of full-scale 
comparison of their genomes. In addition to brute force, genome-wide analysis of alignments, rare genomic 
changes (RGCs) that are thought to comprise derived shared characters of individual clades are increasingly
 used in genome-wide phylogenetic studies. We propose a new type of RGCs designated RGC_CAMs (after Conserved
 Amino acids-Multiple substitutions), which are inferred using a genome-scale analysis of protein and underly
ing nucleotide sequence alignments. The RGC_CAM approach utilizes amino acid residues conserved in 
major eukaryotic lineages, with the exception of a few species comprising a putative clade, and selects 
for phylogenetic inference only those amino acid replacements that require 2 or 3 nucleotide substitutions, 
in order to reduce homoplasy. The RGC_CAM analysis was combined with a procedure for rigorous statistical
 testing of competing phylogenetic hypotheses. The RGC_CAM method is shown to be robust to branch length 
differences and taxon sampling. When applied to animal phylogeny, the RGC_CAM approach strongly supports
 the coelomate clade that unites chordates with arthropods as opposed to the ecdysozoan 
(molting animals) clade. This conclusion runs against the view of animal evolution that is currently 
prevailing in the evo-devo community. The final solution to the coelomate-ecdysozoa controversy will
 require a much larger set of complete genome sequences representing diverse animal taxa. It is expected 
that RGC_CAM and other RGC-based methods will be crucial for these future, definitive phylogenetic studies.
420                            mr. king's discourse.
A somewhat curious story attaches to this seal. Some years after the Revolution, a gentleman interested in the? affairs of this country, in looking through a sort of curiosity shop in London, where a miscellaneous collection of personal effects was displayed to catch the eye of a purchaser, fortunately discovered this signet of the Chamber of Commerce of New York. He immediately secured the valuable estray, and with commendable patriotism restored it to-the proper custody. I regret that I am unable to give you his name. If access could be had to the papers of the late^ John Pintard, for many years Secretary of the Chambera thorough antiquarian in feeling and practice, many authentic and interesting details relating to this and other incidents belonging to your subject, would doubtless be found. It was the habitual occupation of Mr. Pintard to record everything of this nature, and his diary must be rich in historical details.
If I mistake not, Anthony Van Dam, who was the first secretary of the chamber, and continued to hold the officer until the close of the revolution, went to England among the royalists expatriated at that period. He became, I believe, an agent of the underwriters at Lloyd's. Is it not fair to suppose that through some inadvertency of his, as he was the legal custodier of the article, our seal found its way to London, and after his death, into the hands of the dealer in second-band wares ? There was a tablet to the memory of Van Dam erected in one of our city churches, (St., Paul's, I think,) by Mr. Pintard.
In my search for objects of interest connected with the past history of the chamber, my attention was naturally directed to the original charter, granted by Lieut. Gov. Col-den in the name of His Majesty George III., and which I knew had been in existence some few years previously. Every effort in my power was made at the time, and has been continued since, but as yet without success, for the recovery of this interesting link in our historical chain.
There is a bit of history, also, connected with this old charter. Some five-and-twenty years ago, Admiral Walton, of the British Navy, succeeded by inheritance to the property of his family in this city; and on taking possession, among a vast accumulation of miscellaneous lumber, boxes, baskets and chartsiarticles of domestic economy, dragoon saddles and Hessian muskets, in the spacious attic of " Walton House," in Pearl street, was found the original charter of the Chamber of Commerce.   It wa& very large,

SBA Assists Iowa Metal Spinners Rapid Growth 

Cedar Falls, IA ... While many companies lamented a down economy in 2000-2003, Iowa Metal Spinners (IMS) was busy becoming one of the top successes in the nation in the metal spinning industry. The big growth started in 2000 with the move to the new 110,000 square foot facility in the Cedar Falls Industrial Park. Facilitated with a $2.5 million development projected funded in part with a SBA guaranteed debenture (code-named "504") through Black Hawk Economic Development Corporation (BHED) and partnered with Community National Bank in Waterloo, the new facility made room for equipment and personnel needed to handle the rapidly growing orders. 

Metal spinning is a cost effective way to create round hollow metal material used to house air conditioning equipment and outdoor lighting fixtures. The process uses specially designed metal spinning lathes to produce high quality products rapidly and far less expensively than can be accomplished with large metal stamping machines. The introduction of CNC controllers to the metal spinning industry in the past few years has allowed the consistent manufacture of products within the most demanding tolerances. IMS currently has 6 CNC spinning lathes and 15 manually controlled spinning lathes. The vast majority of metal spinning at IMS is done with aluminum alloys and IMS spins more than one millions pounds of aluminum per year. To lesser extents, IMS also spins brass, copper, and galvanized hot/cold rolled steel.

IMS started in 1980 as a small metal spinning company with 3 employees, including Kevin Harberts, and annual sales of $60,000. Kevin arrived at the company with 6 years of spinning experience at another company where he started through a high school work/study program. He purchased the company in 1996 from former owner Max Jordan and the same year arranged a 504 project to purchase new equipment. IMS now employs 65 full-time employees supporting $6.5 million in sales. He plans to add ten new positions this year.

IMS production growth has so far been kept completely internal and Kevin acknowledges he would like to keep all of his future production in house but price competition will eventually force changes in the industry. IMS currently obtains its raw material from steel service centers in Minneapolis and Chicago and domestic steel prices have nearly quadrupled since the beginning of the year. Kevin hopes that increased production will soon allow the company to fill orders directly from steel mills to eliminate the middleman. Also, the company is pursuing an agreement with a Chinese producer to import a limited amount of finished product to ensure the companys bids remain competitive.

Kevin credits the help of the SBA-backed 504 program at BHED Corporation for IMS success. "We couldnt have done it without the (504 project) help from Black Hawk," he said.

GRB 991208 Keck Spectroscopy

A. Diercks, J. S. Bloom, S. G. Djorgovski, L. Hillenbrand, and J.
Carpenter (Caltech) report on behalf of the Caltech-NRAO-CARA GRB
collaboration:

"A 1500-s spectrum of the afterglow of GRB 991208 (GCN #450; GCN #451; GCN
#452) was obtained on the night of 14 Dec 1999 UT at the Keck II 10-m
Telescope on Mauna Kea by L. Hillenbrand and J. Carpenter (Caltech). The
observations were conducted using the Low-Resolution Imaging Spectrometer
(LRIS; Oke et al. 1995) with a 400 line/mm grating blazed at ~8500 Ang
giving an effective wavelength coverage of ~6250 - 9050 Ang.  A
previously-measured instrument response function was used for an
approximate flux calibration.

Interestingly, the spectrum appears very blue, in contrast with
theoretical expectations for an afterglow.  Though the spectrograph slit
was aligned close to the parallactic angle, the observations were
performed at an airmass of ~3.6 and with a bright dawn sky foreground.  
However, we do not think that the observed spectral slope can be entirely
explained by the differential slit losses.  The extreme blueness is so
puzzling that we strongly encourage multiband photometric or additional
spectrophotometric observations to check this potentially interesting
result.

This message may be cited."

Subject:   Free giveaway of spectrum space

Honorable Representative,

     I have recently learned of a devious, insidious ruse on the
part of the FCC and broadcast companies to take all of the new
airspace for free.  These are corporations which make a profit of
billions of dollars a year.  To suggest that they cannot afford
to participate in an auction for spectrum is utterly absurd. 
Please, make the big boys pay their fair share too.  I am a
sixteen year old high school faced with the specter of a national
debt that consumes 18% of the budget every year.  To let
corporations get away with this while cutbacks to Medicare,
Medicaid, and aid to the poor is being slashed, is unconcionable.
Very Sincerely,
William Armshaw
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:  July 6, 1988
         FTC INITIATES RULEMAKING PROCEEDING TO CONSIDER
               AMENDING ITS GAMES-OF-CHANCE RULE;
                     REQUESTS PUBLIC COMMENT
     The Federal Trade Commission today announced that it is
initiating a rulemaking proceeding to consider amendments to its
games-of-chance rule.  The Commission will accept public comments
on the amendments and will hold public hearings on them.
     The rule, promulgated in 1969, establishes requirements for
food and gasoline retailers in conducting and advertising games
of chance.
     The proposed amendments would:
     --   allow supermarkets and gas stations to advertise their
          games on radio and television  without disclosing full
          information on prizes and odds of winning;
     --   alleviate requirements of "duplicative disclosure" of
          information in ads and promotional materials;
     --   require only the disclosure of winners of prizes of $50
          or higher, instead of all winners;
     --   permit those offering the games to add new game pieces
          as needed; and
     --   eliminate the waiting period between games.
     The Commission said it decided to consider amending the rule
"because of the Commission's continuing concerns with reducing
the cost burdens on industry and consumers and with the
inflationary impact of government regulation."
     A notice containing the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking is
scheduled to be published in the Federal Register on July 7.  It
also includes a list of specific issues to be addressed in the
proceeding.
     Written comments on the proposed amendments must be
submitted by Sept. 6.  The comments should be marked as "Games of
Chance Amendment Comment," and if possible, five copies should be
submitted.
     The public hearings will start on Oct. 5, at the FTC
Building in Washington, D.C.  Those wishing to participate should
advise the Presiding Officer by Sept. 6.
     Comments and requests for public hearings should be
submitted to Henry B. Cabell, Presiding Officer, FTC, 6th St. and
Pennsylvania Ave. N.W., Washington, D.C. 20580.  Mr. Cabell can
be reached at 202-326-3642.
     Copies of the Federal Register notice are available from the
FTC's Public Reference Branch, Room 130, same address; 202-326-
2222; TTY 202-326-2502.

her father's speech; then she spoke in a manner
that was not in the least an answer to it. "I want
to see how they will live. I am sure they will have
different hours. She will do all kinds of little things
differently. When we go over there it will be like
going to Europe. She will have a boudoir. She
will invite us to dinnervery late. She will break-
fast in her room."
Charlotte gazed at her sister again. Gertrude's
imagination seemed to her to be fairly running riot.
She had always known that Gertrude had a great
deal of imaginationshe had been very proud of it.
But at the same time she had always felt that it was
a dangerous and irresponsible faculty; and now, to
her sense, for the moment, it seemed to threaten to
make her sister a strange person who should come
in suddenly, as from a journey, talking of the pecu-
liar and possibly unpleasant things she had ob-
served. Charlotte's imagination took no journeys
whatever; she kept it, as it were, in her pocket, with
the other furniture of this receptaclea thimble, a
little box of peppermint and a morsel of court-
plaster. "I don't believe she would have any dinner
or any breakfast," said Miss Wentworth. "I don't
believe she knows how to do anything herself. I
should have to get her ever so many servants, and
she wouldn't like them."

 FCC Releases Y2K Communications Sector Report Supplements for
   Broadcast, Cable, Satellite, and Emergency Communications

The FCC today released Y2K Communications Sector Report Supplements for Broadcast,
Cable, Satellite, and Emergency Communications.

The Broadcast Sector Supplement reports that broadcasters surveyed were considerably
farther along in their Y2K remediation in June 1999 than they were at the time of the
Commission's previous survey of Y2K readiness. Due to the high rate of actual remediation
already achieved (80%) among stations reporting, and the fact that the average expected
completion dates for theses phases have not slipped into the fourth quarter of calendar 1999, the
Supplement concludes that none of these elements or systems appear to be at risk for widespread
Y2K induced failure.  

The Cable Sector Supplement confirms that most cable system operations are expected to
function normally through the January 1, 2000 rollover. The respondents to the June 1999 survey
serve approximately 92 percent of cable subscribers and cover a similar cross-section of small,
medium and large operators. The response rate to our re-survey was 100 percent.

The Satellite Sector Supplement indicates that overall completion dates for some
companies slipped slightly, but that there is no significant variance from the first data. 
The survey response rate was moderately satisfactory. The Commission contacted 18 operators
who had responded to the first survey for updated information. We received 12 responses. As the
respondent companies constitute a large percentage of the satellite services industry, their
responses provide a viable Y2K industry analysis. 

     The Emergency Communications Sector Supplement indicates that telecommunications
carriers report high readiness to complete 911 calls, and that both broadcast licensees and cable
operators report high readiness with Emergency Alert System equipment.

On March 30, 1999, the FCC, in conjunction with Network Reliability and Interoperability
Council (NRIC), released a broad Y2K Communications Sector Report.   The Commission
subsequently initiated a resurvey of the industry in order to determine whether they are "on track"
with Y2K preparations. The results of the resurvey conducted in June/July have been issued as a
series of Report Supplements that are publicly available on the Commission's Y2K web site, at
www.fcc.gov/year2000. The FCC's Year 2000 Task Force also can be reached by e-mail at
year2000@fcc.gov.

U.S.A.

Dear President Pusey,

   I am writing to you on a matter which is causing some concern to us
here.   Professor J.D. Watson, with whom I collaborated in 1953 in the
.discovery of the structure of DNA, has written a book about the ,history
of the discovery.  Unfortunately this is not the scholarly, well
documented work which is needed,   Indeed 9-t could fairly be described
as Gossip pretending to be History.   The general tone can be judged
from the title (`*Honest Jimn) and the opening sentence "1 have never
seen Francis fn a modest mood%

  f have asked Watson not. to publish his book 8s I regard it as a
gross and unnecessary invasion of my privacy and in poor taste.   Never-
theless he twlls me that he intends to publish this account of our
collaboration together in spite of my objections,   naturally I regard
this as a breach of good faith on his part.

  The reason of my writing to you is that it fs the Harvard University
Press which plans to publish it.   1 have corresponded with Xr Thomas Y,
Wilson of the Press, but can make no impression on him.   He says that
he does not think it his business to consider what Ps bad form among
scientists, and that he fntands to publish whether I like it or not.

   Such an action can only rerjult Sn public criticism of the Press from
the scfentific community.  May 1 ask you to look into this matter before
St is too late?

With apologlea for troubling you,
               Yours sincerely,

NEBRASKA/KANSAS STATE LINE TO HOXIE TO LEOTI AND THEN OVER TO 
HIGHWAY 59 IN EAST CENTRAL COLORADO.  THIS ADVISORY IS VALID UNTIL 
18 UTC.

COLD AIR AND DAMP UPSLOPE IS PRODUCING DENSE FREEZING FOG...WITH 
SURFACES RAPIDLY DEVELOPING A NICE LAYER OF HOAR FROST AT THE 
OFFICE.  QUICK CALLS AROUND THE AREA INDICATE NEAR ZERO TO 1/2 MILE 
VISIBILITY IN LOCALES NOT UNDER MID LEVEL CLOUDS.

OTHER CONCERN IS TEMPS...ESPECIALLY EAST.  WITH UPSLOPE AND MORE MID 
LEVEL CLOUDINESS...EASTERN COUNTIES ARE NOT LIKELY TO BREAK OUT INTO

AS IT LIFTS NORTHEAST TOWARDS THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY SUNDAY NIGHT.
THIS ALONG WITH THE UPPER TROUGH MOVING EAST OF THE ROCKIES THIS
WEEKEND WILL DETERMINE THE AREAS AND AMOUNTS OF SNOW RECEIVED
ACROSS THE TRI-STATE AREA.

A COMBINATION OF MODEL SOLUTIONS IS PREFERRED. THE ETA IS THE DRYER
OF THE MODELS AS IT IS MORE PROGRESSIVE AND IS LESS DEEP WITH THE
UPPER TROUGH MOVING EAST OF THE ROCKIES THAN THE GFS.  HOWEVER...THE
GFS TENDS TO DEVELOP TOO MUCH NEAR SURFACE UPSLOPE FLOW AND PR0DUCES
TOO EXTENSIVE SATURATION OF THE ATMOSPHERE THAT LEADS TO
PRECIPITATION AMOUNTS THAT ARE UNREALISTICALLY HIGH.  PREFER THE
TIMING AND TRACK OF THE GFS WITH SNOW AMOUNTS THAT ARE MORE IN LINE
WITH THE ETA.  THE ETA ALSO PRODUCES A GREATER RANGE OF TEMPERATURES
ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA WHICH IS PREFERRED TODAY. END RESULT IS
THAT THE ETA IS PREFERRED FOR MUCH OF TODAY WITH A BLEND TOWARDS A
TONED DOWN VERSION OF THE GFS.

AM GOING WITH SNOW BEGINNING AFTER 00Z TONIGHT AND SPREADING ACROSS
THE FORECAST AREA OVERNIGHT BEFORE TAPERING OFF DURING THE DAY ON

BOOK FOR GOLD-SEEKERS.             485
580,200 pieces of eight, and the ineffectual ransom of Adahualpa cost the unfortunate Inca a sum exceeding $I5,o00,000 of our money. The Spanish army in Peru received and sent home four times as much as the followers of Cortez sent from Mexico. It is diverting to observe how the ill-gotten gains operated precisely as the discovery of a bonanza does in a mining camp. The chronicler says: "Every article rose in value. A quire of paper sold for ten pieces of eight, a bottle of wine for sixty, a sword for forty or fifty, a cloak for a hundred, a pair of shoes for thirty or forty, and a horse for twentyfive hundred." A piece of eight was equivalent to an ounce of gold.
It is assumed that Spain drew from her American possessions in the first half of the sixteenth century $40,ooo,ooo of gold, the estimate will be liberal; but it was enough to revolutionize commerce throughout the world and to lead Spain to adopt the policy which crippled her energies, stifled her intellect, and reduced her in three centuries to such a condition of decrepitude that she became the laughing stock of the nations. In the meantime, however, her best blood flowed across the ocean to America and founded nations which promise to outstrip the mother country in the true elements of greatness.
From the spoliation of the South and Central American countries in the first half of the sixteenth century to the middle of the nineteenth there was no startling discovery of gold anywhere. The world's stock kept steady, the loss from abrasion and accident being just about balanced by the production of the working mines.

STS-104 MISSION CONTROL CENTER STATUS REPORT #19



The first space walk to originate from the International Space 
Station&rsquo;s new airlock, Quest, lasted 4 hours, 2 minutes, and 
established a higher degree of station independence in its own 
construction and maintenance.



The space walk also was the first to be supported primarily from the 
space station Flight Control Room in Houston, and the first 
demonstration of a new pre-breathing protocol that uses vigorous 
exercise to help purge nitrogen bubbles from the space walkers&rsquo; 
bloodstreams and prevent what is known as &ldquo;the bends.&rdquo;



Mission Specialists Mike Gernhardt and Jim Reilly exited the new 
airlock at 11:35 p.m. CDT Friday and were back inside by 3:37 a.m. 
Saturday. Working in tandem with the station&rsquo;s Canadarm2 
operator and Expedition Two Flight Engineer Jim Voss and shuttle arm 
operator and Atlantis Commander Steve Lindsey, the space-age 
construction workers attached a nitrogen supply tank to the 
airlock&rsquo;s shell. This completed the installation of two 
nitrogen and two oxygen tanks that will be used to pressurize the 
airlock and resupply space suits. Atlantis Pilot Charlie Hobaugh and 
Station Commander Yury Usachev coordinated the space walk from 
inside, while Flight Engineer Susan Helms supported station arm 
operations.



Depressurizing the airlock took longer than expected &ndash; about 40 
minutes instead of the anticipated 7 minutes. Flight controllers and 
engineers have not yet identified what caused the pressure 
equalization valve on the Crew Lock&rsquo;s hatch to react so slowly, 
but are continuing to evaluate data and reports from the crew.



During the mission&rsquo;s third spacewalk, Gernhardt and Reilly also 
moved hand-over-hand up the station&rsquo;s solar array truss to take 
a look at a gimbal assembly mechanism that allows the arrays to 
swivel with the Sun. They reported no visible signs that could 
account for high-current readings being witnessed by flight 
controllers on the ground.



The successful construction foray brings the total time for space 
station-based walks to 4 hours, 21 minutes. There have been 24 space 
walks devoted to station assembly, a combined total of 155 hours, 39 
minutes.



The crews will go to bed at 8:04 a.m., and awaken at 4:04 p.m. to 
begin preparations for an undocking at 11:54 p.m. CDT Saturday. The 
Atlantis and Expedition Two crews will say good-bye and close the 
hatches at 8:59 a.m.



The JSC Newsroom will close at 7:30 a.m. CDT Saturday, and reopen at 
3:30 p.m. The next mission status report will be issued about 6 p.m. 
Saturday or as events warrant.

tennse, basal joints, blue-black; labrum white, nearly as long as broad, obtusely longitudinally carinated, obscurely tridentate at tip, and a little dilated at the lateral base; niandibles white on the exterior edge near the base; palpi dark blue, or cupreous; elytra with rather large, dense punctures; a humeral spot, another before the middle on the margin, a reclivate nearly transverse band on the middle, and a spot at the posterior curve of the elytra, white; venter black, with a purplish reflection.
Length less than three-fifths of an inch.
Var. . The spots of the elytra obsolete.
This insect seems to approach nearest to C. vulgaris, nob. (Trans. Amer. Philos. Soc. vol. 1. new series,) but it is sufficiently distinct by the following characters. The labrum is twice as long, and the punctures of the elytra are more than double the size. The venter is sometimes.dark green.
2. C. terricola. Black; a white line at the tip of the elytra.
Inhabits North-west Territory.
Body destitute of metallic lustre; labrum white; breadth more than twice the length; tip three-toothed, intermediate tooth conic acute, the lateral teeth angulated obtuse; mandibles white on the exterior base; thorax a little hairy ; elytra with scattered very minute punctures, which are oblique, as if formed by a pointed instrument directed towards the anterior part of the insect, so that the surface before each puncture is a little elevated; a white line margins the extremity; venter blackish-testaceous; tibia dull testaceous.
Length rather more than two-fifths of an inch.
This species is closely allied to C. pusilla, nob. but the marking of the elytra differs, and the thorax is not so much

     "Today's decision threatens to turn back the clock on the significant
progress this Administration and many in industry have made to improve food
safety for all Americans.  

     "The Salmonella performance standard is a clear success.  It has helped
bring about reductions of up to 50 percent in Salmonella on raw meat and
poultry, reducing illnesses caused by this and other potentially dangerous
pathogens.  And virtually all plants have met the standards.  However, some in
the meat industry are using this case to avoid their obligation to produce
safe product.  

     "We will take whatever legal steps are necessary to overturn this wrong
decision.  We also fully intend to explore any additional regulatory measures
needed to continue our aggressive efforts to protect the safety of the
American food supply."

Title: Lake Mead, NV

Description:

Lake Mead, Nevada, (36.0N, 114.5E) where the water from the Colorado River 
empties after it's 273 mile journey through the Grand Canyon of Arizona is 
the subject of this photo.  Other features of interest are Hoover Dam on
the  south shore of Lake Mead where cheap hydroelectric power is secondary
to the   water resources made available in this northern desert region and
the resort   city of Las Vegas, just to the west of Lake Mead.
264                 NATALIE WANHOFF:
the company. Above the " town," on a high knoll,
is a large grist mill. Describing an arc of perfect
proportions, its midmost depression a mile behind
the Fort, a great mountain forms a natural rampart.
At either extreme it tapers to the jagged cliffs. On
its three lower tables the mountain is green and .
bare ; then abruptly rises a forest of redwoods, tall,
rigid, tenebrious.
The mountain is visible but a moment. An
immense white fog-bank which has been crouching
on the horizon rears suddenly and rushes across
the ocean, whose low mutter rises to a roar. It
sweeps like a tidal wave across cliffs and Fort. It
halts abruptly against the face of the mountain. In
the same moment the ocean stills. It would almost
seem that nature held her breath, awaiting some
awful event.
Suddenly, in the very middle of the fog-bank,
appears the shadowy figure of a woman. She
is glidingto the rightrapidly and stealthily.
Youth is in her slender grace, her delicate profile,
dimly outlined. Her long hair of a silveren-blonde
color, is unbound and luminously distinct from the
white fog. She walks swiftly across the lower
table of the mountain, then disappears. One sees,
vaguely, a dark figure crouching along the lower
fringe of the fog.   That, too, disappears.
For a moment the silence seems intensified.
Then, suddenly, it ia crossed by a low whirra
strange sound in the midnight. Then a shriek
whose like is never heard save when a soul is

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HOUSTON/GALVESTON TX
242 PM CDT SAT AUG 14 2004

.DISCUSSION...
NO MAJOR CHANGES PLANNED FOR THE NEXT PACKAGE. THIS DRY/QUIET FALL 
LIKE WX TO CONTINUE ON FOR ANOTHER DAY OR SO BEFORE THE GULF OPENS 
BACK UP AND POPS RETURN. SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN RH LEVELS AND PCPN 
CHANCES NOT REALLY SLATED UNTIL TUES AT THE EARLIEST WHEN S/SE SFC 
WINDS BECOME MORE PRONOUNCED IN RESPONSE TO THE RIDGE FINALLY MOV- 
ING OFF TO THE EAST AND THE NEXT LOW DEEPENS IN THE LEE OF THE SRN 
ROCKIES. NWLY FLOW ALOFT PROGGED TO BECOME MORE ZONAL WITH TIME AS 
ENERGY SNEAKS UNDER THE RIDGE AND HELPS TO BREAK IT DOWN. STRONGER 
S/WS FORECAST TO MOVE ACROSS BY MID WEEK...AND PROVIDED THAT THERE 
IS ENOUGH MOISTURE WE COULD SEE SOME ISOLATED SH/TSRA BY THEN WITH 
THE SEABREEZE. WE DID MANAGE TO BREAK ONE RECORD THIS MORNING WITH 
A 65 AT IAH (SEE CHART BELOW). AND GIVEN THE CURRENT DEWPOINTS AND 
THE OVERALL LACK OF CLOUD COVER ACROSS THE REGION...IT IS ENTIRELY 
CONCEIVABLE THAT WE'LL BREAK ANOTHER TONIGHT/TOMORROW MORNING. 41/45

Ammonites placenta, (De Kay.)   Very large ; found also in New Jersey.
Ammonites Mandanensis, (Morton.)
Ammonites Nicolletii, (Morton.)
Ammonites abyssinus, (Morton.)
Ammonites Conradi, (Morton.)    Also found in Alabama.
Baculites ovatus, (Say.)   Also found in Alabama.
Baculites compressus, the same species flattened.
Belemnites mucronatus; found in New Jersey and Alabama, and also oc-
curs in the chalk of England.
Hipponyx borealis, (Morton.)
Avicula cretacea, (Conrad.)*
Cylherea Missouriana, (Morton.)
Tellina occidentalis, (Morton.)
Ostrua vesicularis, (Lamarck.)
Anomia tellinoides, (Morton.)
Inoceramus barabini, (Morton.) Occurring in great numbers, and of un-
usually large size ; most frequently compressed. This species ap-
proaches 1. Crispii of Mantell, figured in his Geology of Sussex, and
characterizes the formation.
VERTEBRATED ANIMALS.
/
Two vertebr. of a species of squalus.
Three vertebr of a nondescript crocodile.
Two vertebr continuous of an animal belonging to the order of enalis
saurus of Conybeare. The specimens are completely mineralized,
the organized structure being entirely replaced by crystallized carbonate
of lime. From the size of the specimens, and their other characters,
it is quite probable that these vertebrae form a part of the skeleton of
the saurocepkalus lanciformis, (Harlan.) Vide Medical and Physical
Researches, pp. 362 and 386. These specimens are considerably dis-
torted by pressure, and similar ones have been found in the green sand
of New Jersey, and in the chalk formation of England.
* This is a fragment of a cast, but sufficiently distinct to entitle it to a specific appellation.
It is remarkable for the perfectly rectilinear fronf margin so far as it appears on the fragment.
