<p><b><i>Editor's Note: Laboratory Director John Browne has stated on more than 
  one occasion that there will be zero tolerance at the Lab for people mistreatment 
  incidents. </i></b></p>
<p><font size="+1"><b>Words can hurt even those for whom they're not intended</b></font><br>
</p>
<p>I've stewed over this for several weeks now and I'm still not sure whether 
  calling public attention to it is the right thing to do. But &quot;All that 
  is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.&quot; (E. 
  Burke) If silence may make things worse, hopefully speaking out will have a 
  positive effect. I report and reflect on a comment overheard in the Otowi Building 
  cafeteria.<br>
</p>
<p>One person was talking very loudly, so neither effort nor intent was required 
  to overhear the conversation. There was an interesting series of sensible comments 
  related to stockpile stewardship, and then after a quieter period, I caught 
  the end of something that seemed to have referred to one of the classic blood-libels, 
  recognizing its falsehood and that it had been used as an excuse to mistreat 
  &quot;the Jews.&quot; This of course caught my attention, but what astonished 
  me was to hear what followed: &quot;not that you need an excuse to mistreat 
  them.&quot;<br>
</p>
<p>Whether it was from cowardice or politeness, my initial reaction was that it 
  was neither proper nor my place to intervene in an otherwise private conversation. 
  And this is a free country (perhaps the freest ever) so everyone can say and 
  think what they like.<br>
</p>
<p>But America was founded on and has risen to greatness on the premise that everyone 
  should be treated on the basis of their individual actions, not their origin, 
  race or creed. If we forget that, if we weaken in our resolve to base our behavior 
  on that premise, then we weaken the core strength of America; we undermine our 
  ability to make one out of the many.<br>
</p>
<p>However, I heard no one at that table raise any objection, or say that it is 
  un-American to mistreat anyone on the basis of their ethnic grouping. Hoping 
  that it is never too late to do good, I speak out now. Certainly this view is 
  to my benefit; I also believe that it benefits each and everyone of us.</p>

{description}   KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. A Russian Antonov AH-124-100 cargo
                airplane lands at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station Skid
                Strip. The plane is delivering a second stage Centaur for the
                Lockheed Martin Atlas V, designated AV-007, that is the launch
                vehicle for the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO). The MRO is
                designed for a series of global mapping, regional survey and
                targeted observations from a near-polar, low-altitude Mars orbit.
                These observations will be unprecedented in terms of the spatial
                resolution and coverage achieved by the orbiters instruments as
                they observe the atmosphere and surface of Mars while probing its
                shallow subsurface as part of a follow the water strategy. The
                orbiter is undergoing environmental tests in facilities at
                Lockheed Martin Space Systems in Denver, Colo., and is on
                schedule for a launch window that begins Aug. 10. Launch will be
                from Launch Pad 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in
                Florida.

ABSTRACT
Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and laboratory X-ray
fluorescence (XRF) were used to characterize post-abatement dust
collected with a HEPA filter.  Three size fractions of resuspended
dust (0-150 m, 2.5-15 m, and <2.5 m) were collected on teflon
filters and analyzed by energy-dispersive XRF.  Automated SEM was
used to determine the size, morphology, and chemistry of individual
particles from 0.2 m to greater than 250 m.  Minerals associated
with construction materials, paint fillers, and soil were the
dominant species in all size fractions.  Lead-rich particles were
found in all sizes and could be grouped into three categories:
lead-only (including lead oxide and lead carbonate), mixed
lead/minerals, and automotive lead.  Isolated lead oxide or lead
carbonate particles derived from paint pigments were the dominant
form of the lead-bearing particles in the size fraction <15 m.

markers to conservation of freshwater bivalves. Journal of Shellfish Research.  
17:1395-1405.
	
Freshwater bivalves (Unionacea) are among the most endangered faunal elements in 
North America. Molecular genetic studies have much to offer conservation efforts 
directed to this declining fauna. Molecular genetic data can provide information 
needed to identify evolutionarily significant units, resolve taxonomic 
ambiguities, describe population structure, evaluate impacts of habitat 
fragmentation and reduced gene flow among populations, reconstruct phylogenetic 
relationships, clarify fish host-glochidia relationships, and provide evidence 
in legal actions. Molecular genetic techniques and their application to 
freshwater bivalves are reviewed.

To appear in the Washington Post of Wednesday, September 7:

Dear President Carter,

  Today General Pinochet head of the Chilean Junta is in Washington D.C.
along with a great number of Americans who cherish democracy and human rights.
We condemn the Pinochet visit with the full weight       of our moral
consciousness.

   The destruction of democracy and the police state imposed by Pinochet
in September 1973 and kept in power by his secret police force DINA has
consistently and flagrantly violated the civil, political, social and
economic rights of its victims, the Chilean people.  Such has been the fin-
ding of the UN, the OAS, International Commission of Jurists, the Catholic
Church of Chile..+.- Even your own delegation of the UN Human Rights Commission
in March of this year, Mr. President, cosponsored a resolution vigorously
condeming the Pinochet dictatorship for its "constant and flagrant violation
of human rights";  Now Pinochet has replaced DINA with a National Information
C*ter     whose founding decrees are almost identical in language and pur-
pose with those of its notorious predecessor. Pinochet will endeavor to
appeace world public opinion but such cosmetic changes do not signify the
effective recovery of democracy, nor the restoration of fundamental human
rights.  Our President, the highest representative of our democratic people
cannot shake the hand of a tyrant who closed the National Congress of Chile,
burned all the electoral registers, dismantled the Chile Confedfation of Labor,
militarizdthe universities, incarcerated and slaughtered thousands of his
countrymen anh who suppresses all dissent through censorship and prohibition
against freedom of expression.  In your right hand, Mr. President, you hold
the fate of 1500 people who "disappeared" after being detained by DINA. Do
not extend that hand to General Pinochet asking him instead where are those
1500 people.  Are they alive?.  Why has he not honored his promise to UN
Secreqry Kurt Waldheim to inform him of their whereabouts?.

   It is a tragic irony that General Pinochet comes to Washington D.C. al-
most a year to the day after the brutal assasinations of former Chilean Ambas-
sador Orlando Letelier and Ronni Karpen Moffitt, symbol of the best of our
youth.  We ask-Mr. President that publicly state your views on the human rights
sieuation in Chile, Argentina, Uruguay,  and the other countries of the Americas
where arbitrary rule and repression are the institutions of daily life.
Bestowing on these dictators the same honours reverved for genuine representa-
tives of democratic nations serves only to cast doubt on the true meaning of
your human rights policy and to lessen the moral prestige of our nation in the
world community.

Sincerely,

THE sea-lion is also a characteristic pinniped of the Pribylov Islands, but ranks much below the fur-seal in perfected physical organization and intelligence. It can, as well as its more sagacious and valuable relative, the Callorhinus, be seen, perhaps, to better advantage on these islands than elsewhere in the whole world that I know of. The marked difference between a sea-lion and the fur-seal up here is striking, the former being twice the size of its cousin.
The size and strength of a northern sea-lion, Eumetopias steller, its perfect adaptation to its physical surroundings, unite with a singular climatic elasticity of organization. It seems to be equally well satisfied with the ice-floes of the Kamchatka Sea to the northward, or with the polished boulders and the hot sands of the coast
B  California. It is an animal as it appears upon its accustomed
eding grounds at Northeast Point, where I first saw it, that com- manded my involuntary admiration by its imposing presence and sonorous voice, as it reared itself before me, with head, neck, and hwot upon its powerful forearms, over six feet in height, while its s voice drowned the booming of the surf that thundered :its  W              .

Policy on the Development of Immunization Tracking Systems (R.E.9620)

AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS

Committee on Practice and Ambulatory Medicine

The American Academy of Pediatrics in its role as advocate for children supports public and private cooperation in the 
development of immunization tracking systems (I.T.S.s) insofar as they benefit children.  All I.T.S.s as they are developed:

* Should prospectively articulate their goals and desired outcomes, including documenting immunization status and the 
mechanics of immunization, increasing rates of immunization, decreasing cost of immunization, and facilitation immunization 
opportunities;
* Must accurately document each childs current immunization status;
* Must preserve childrens and their health care providers right to confidentiality;
* Should ensure that data will be available to health care providers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so that health care
 providers can take advantage of all opportunities to immunize;
* Should ensure that data will not be used for sanctions against health care providers;
* Must ensure that data input and access mechanisms enable providers to supply and access data easily, without having to 
purchase specialized hardware or expensive software; input and access software mechanisms need to enable all providers to 
supply data and retrieve data from the I.T.S.;
* Should entitle health care providers to be reimbursed for the cost of providing data to the I.T.S.;
* Must ensure that data reflecting evidence of incomplete immunizations will not be used to deny a child access to care or 
eligibility for benefits by any insurance plan;
* Must be studies and/or evaluated to determine their effectiveness at increasing immunization rates and decreasing costs; if
 such systems do not fulfill these goals, they should be eliminated; and 
* Should be a collaboration between public and private initiatives with the ability to link to larger data systems, e.g., 
community health information networks, or other similar systems.

SPACE STATION EXPERIMENTS MITIGATE RISK FOR FUTURE EXPLORATION



As Space Shuttle Atlantis separated from the International Space 
Station (ISS) last month, astronauts used the robot arm to scan the 
heat shield looking for signs of impact damage caused by small 
meteoroids or manmade orbital debris.



Bill Kinard has spent half a century defining the meteoroid and 
man-made debris environments in space to determine the effects they 
can have on operational spacecraft. He will discuss his work at a 
lecture Thursday, Oct. 5, at 2 p.m. in the NASA Langley Research 
Center Reid Conference Center. Kinard will give a similar briefing 
for the general public at 7:30 p.m. at the Virginia Air & Space 
Center, downtown Hampton.



Media who wish to interview Kinard at a press briefing at 1:15 p.m. 
Thursday should contact Keith Henry at 864-6120 or 344-7211 (mobile) 
by noon for credentials and entry to the Center.



Kinard's most recent effort, called the Materials in Space 
International Space Station Experiments - or MISSEs - is providing 
the insight needed to develop materials for future spacecraft. 
STS-115 astronauts retrieved MISSE-5 that had been attached to the 
ISS for a year and returned the sample-filled suitcase to Earth when 
Atlantis landed.



Early in his career, Kinard conceived and was principal investigator 
for the Meteoroid Technology Satellite that first proved that the 
"Meteor Bumper Shield" is an effective concept to shield against 
impacting meteoroids and orbiting debris. Every large spacecraft 
since, including the ISS, has used multi-wall meteor bumpers to 
provide protection.



Kinard was also instrumental in the design and development of the Long 
Duration Exposure Facility (LDEF) that obtained valuable information 
on the environments in near-Earth space. LDEF data is now regarded as 
the benchmark for environmental effects on spacecraft in low-Earth 
orbit.



A native of Ninety Six, S.C., Kinard graduated from Clemson College 
and served a two-year tour of duty in the Air Force attached to the 
National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) at the Langley 
Research Center. He remained at NACA, which became NASA in 1958, and 
after 50 years remains a NASA Langley employee.

tiliously observed ; and, from the governor to the meanest laborer, the Jesuit watched and guided all. The social atmosphere of New England itself was not more suffocating. By day and by night, at home, at church, or at his daily work, the colonist lived under the eyes of busy and over-zealous priests. At times, the denizens of Quebec grew restless. In 1639, deputies were covertly sent to beg relief in France, and " to represent the hell in which the consciences of the colony were kept by the union of the temporal and spiritual authority in the same hands."
The very amusements of this pious community were acts of religion. Thus, on the f^te-day of St. Joseph, the patron of New France, there was a show of fireworks to do him honor. In the forty volumes of the Jesuit Relations there is but one pictorial illustration; and this represents the pyrotechnic contrivance in question, together with a figure of the Governor in the act of touching it off. But, what is more curious, a Catholic writer of the present day, the Abbe Faillon, in an elaborate and learned work, dilates at length on the details of the display; and this, too, with a gravity which evinces his conviction that squibs, rockets, blue-lights, and serpents are important instruments for the saving of souls. On May-Day of the same year, 1637, Mont-magny planted before the church a May-pole surmounted by a triple crown, beneath which were three symbolical circles decorated with wreaths, and bearing severally the names, Iesus, Maria, Ioseph; the soldiers drew up before it, and saluted it with a volley of musketry.
On the anniversary of the Dauphin's birth there was a dramatic performance, in which an unbeliever, speaking Algonquin for the profit of the Indians present, was hunted into Hell by fiends.   Religious processions were

QUESTION:
What would you determine by studing the ozone layer in Antarctica?

ANSWER from Steven Downey, Doctoral Student, University of Illinois
            Wed, 19 Feb 1997 12:16:56 -0500

Dear Class,

While I'm more into Antarctic animal life, what I do know about the ozone
research comes from my readings.  Ozone is a naturally created form of
oxygen that lies in a layer 10-25 miles above the Earth's surface.  It
protects life on planet from the sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation, forms of
which, in particular UV-B, can cause living cells to mutate or die.

During the 70's, Antarctic experiments and NASA satellites confirmed the
thinning of the ozone over Antarctica.  The cause for the thinning is an
increase in the level of chemicals which destroy ozone.  These chemicals
are typically man-made, such as CFCs found in refrigeration units and spray
cans.  The "Ozone Hole" as it is named is due the high concentration of
ozone damaging gases over Antarctica.  This concentration is formed by the
Polar Vortex, a high level belt of winds which circulate over Antarctica
pulling in airborne chemicals such as CFCs.  The thinning found in the 70's
still continues.  In 1992, the Hole formed earlier than usual.  This was
due in part to the continued use of damaging chemical by humans and the
eruption of Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines six months earlier.

According to the US Environmental Protection Agency, continued increases in
UV radiation levels could cause millions of more cases of skin cancer,
cataracts, and immune-system diseases.  Crops and sea life may also be
affected as the ozone continues to thin.

So, scientists are hoping to find out more about what all is affecting the
ozone layer and how these effects may be corrected, or IF they can be
corrected.

back slough of vicissitude do they languish to-day? Dick Low lies in a drunkard's grave. Skookum Jim would fain qualify for one. Dawson Charlie, reeling home from a debauch, drowns in the river. In impecunious despair, Harry Waugh hangs himself. Charlie Anderson, after squandering a fortune on a thankless wife, works for a labourer's hire.
So I might go on and on. Their stories would fill volumes. And as I sat on the quiet hillside, listening to the drowsy hum of the bees, the inner meaning of it all came home to me. Once again the great lone land was sifting out and choosing its own. Far-reaching was its vengeance, and it worked in divers ways. It fell on them, even as it had fallen on their brethren of the trail. In the guise of fortune it #dealt their ruin. From the austere silence of its snows it was mocking them, beguiling them to their doom. Again it was the Land of the Strong. Before all it demanded strength, moral and physical strength. I was minded of the words of old Jim, "Where one wins ninety and nine will fail"; and time had proved him true. The great, grim land was weeding out the unfit, was rewarding those who could understand it, the faithful brotherhood of the high North.
Full of such thoughts as these, I raised my eyes and looked down the river towards the Moosehide Bluffs. Hullo! There, just below the town, was a great sheet of water, and even as I watched I saw it spread and spread. People were shouting, running from their houses, speeding to the beach.   I was con-

Gentlemen:

What do we expect when a product is labelled "Made in the USA"?

We expect that it was made in the USA - parts and labor all originating in this country.

Most vendors agree.  We have noticed many "Made in..." labels clearly spelling out: "Made in the
USA of parts made in...... "Made in the US from imported parts", "Assembled in Mexico using
US parts", etc.  Just yesterday we looked at the 3-1/2" diskettes we are using (Fuji), stamped
"Assembled in USA." This is fine; we know what we have.

"Global economy," "changed circumstances" did not change our expectation of honest, clear,
dependable labelling.  If a shoe has soles made in China, say so.

Please do not change a requirement that worked well for all.

Very truly yours,
