John Russell, the leader of the present administration.
He is now asking for three million pounds sterling to
carry on the war. He fs a terse and perspicuous speaker,
but avoids prolixity. He is much respected on both
sides of the House. Though favorable to reform meas-
ures generally, he is nevertheless an upholder of aristoo-
racy, and stands at the head and firmly by his order.
He is brother to the present Duke of Bedford, and has
twice been Premier ; and, though on the sunny side of
sixty, he has been in office, at different times, more than
thirty years. He is a constitutional whig and conser-
vative reformer. See how earnestly he speaks, and keeps
his eyes on Disraeli ! He is afraid of the Jew. Now he
scratches the bald place on his head, and then opens that
huge roll of paper, and looks over towards Lord Palmerston.
That full-faced, well-built man, with handsome coun-

He is about the same age of Lord John ; and is the

for Appellant.

     Audrey Roh and Dennis Adelson, Division of Management and Administrative Legal
Services, Office of the Solicitor, Department of Labor, Washington, DC, counsel for
Respondent.

Before Board Judges GOODMAN, DRUMMOND, and SOMERS.

GOODMAN, Board Judge.

     This appeal was filed on January 9, 2007, by appellant from a Department of Labor
contracting officer's final decision dated October 13, 2006, assessing damages against
appellant arising from performance of a contract to provide placement and career transition
services to Job Corps students residing in the state of Georgia.

     By letter dated March 13, 2007, respondent's contracting officer withdrew the final
decision, and respondent's counsel advised the Board thereof by letter dated March 15, 2007.
     The Contract Disputes Act of 1978 provides that all claims relating to government
contracts shall be the subject of decisions by contracting officers.  41 U.S.C.  605(a) (2000). 
Without a contracting officer's final decision, there can be no appeal over which we have
jurisdiction.  See, e.g., Monster Government Solutions, Inc. v. Department of Homeland
Security, DOT BCA 4532, 06-1 BCA  33,236, aff'd on reconsideration, 06-2 BCA
 33,312; Far Western Graphics, Inc., VABCA 7214, 05-1 BCA  32,829 (2004); Zbigniew
Ostaszewski v. Department of State, GSBCA 16319-ST, 04-2 BCA  32,640.

     Accordingly, as there is no appealable contracting officer's final decision, this appeal
is DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION.

HALL
ZEBRA MUSSEL VELIGER SUPPLY AND SETTLEMENT IN THE ILLINOIS RIVER

Angela Nealand 1, James A. Stoeckel 1, and Daniel W. Schneider 2.
1 Center for Aquatic Ecology, Illinois Natural History Survey, Long Term Resource 
Monitoring Program, Havana Field Station, 704 North Schrader Avenue, Havana IL

Survey, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Champaign, IL 61820.

Zebra mussels (Dreissena polymorpha) will probably never be completely eliminated 
from U.S. waterways, but there is hope that their population may be reduced in river 
systems.  Zebra mussels in the Illinois River likely function as a metapopulation (a 
system of local populations connected by dispersal).  Adult populations are dependent 
upon an upstream veliger supply since internal recruitment is limited by river currents. 
Because of this dependence, zebra mussels might be controlled by preventing the 
influx of veligers.  An important question to investigate is how tightly this influx is 
linked to settlement.

In order to explore this link, we monitored larval supply and settlement rates during 
1999 at two fixed sites on the Illinois River near Havana (river miles 115 and 121.1). 
Larval supply was estimated by means of 30 liter samples collected 0.25 m off the 
bottom of the river.  Settlement was monitored on both a weekly and a monthly basis 
using racks of ten three-inch diameter clear PVC plates.  Post-settlement survivorship 
and growth was measured using a photoplate sampler comprised of a rack of eight 
six-inch square PVC plates.  These plates were photographed and returned to the 
water throughout the season.  Natural communities were allowed to develop on these 
plates to limit disturbances and allow normal settlement.  The three methods could 
then be compared to find the most accurate measure of settlement.

The only major settlement event occurred during a three week period from mid May 
to mid June.  Preliminary results indicate that the different sampling methods show 
different attachment rates and that settlement is highly variable between replicates. 
Higher than normal levels of umbonal veligers were present in zooplankton samples 
during the settlement event.  We are currently investigating the size composition of 
the larval flux, evaluating settlement on the photoplate samplers, and analyzing 
weekly and monthly settlement results.

Joint Release
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Office of the Comptroller of the Currency
Office of Thrift Supervision
NR 2002-96
For Immediate Release
December 17, 2002
Agencies Propose Disciplinary Action Rules for Accountants and
Accounting Firms Performing Certain Audit Services
The federal bank and thrift regulatory agencies today invited
public comment on proposed rules governing their authority to
take disciplinary actions against independent public accountants
and accounting firms that perform audit and attestation services
required by section 36 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act.
The proposed rules would establish procedures under which the
agencies could, for good cause, remove, suspend, or bar an
accountant or firm from performing audit and attestation
services for insured depository institutions with assets of
$500 million or more.  They would permit immediate suspensions
in limited circumstances.
Under the proposed rules, violations of law, certain negligent
conduct, reckless violations of professional standards or lack
of qualifications to perform auditing services would be considered
good cause to remove, suspend or bar an accountant or firm from
providing services for such an insured institution.  Also, under
the proposed rules an accountant or accounting firm may not perform
audit services as prescribed under section 36 if the accountant
or firm has been removed, suspended, or debarred by one of the
agencies, or if the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board,
the Securities and Exchange Commission, or a state licensing
authority takes certain disciplinary actions against the
accountant or firm.
The proposed rules are being issued by the Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and
the Office of Thrift Supervision.  While they would amend each
agency's rules of practice separately, they would have uniform
application for each agency.
Comments are due 60 days after publication in the Federal Register.

possible for him to longer hold his position consistent
with his self-respect. The violence of the extreme Right
of the Assembly knew no bounds. He would have been
called a " conservative republican " in our country,not
sharing the extreme views of the radicals, but a republi-
can by sentiment and conviction. He was what was
called in France " a serious man." He was a lawyer,
the btonnier of the Paris Bar, eminent in his profession,
a man of high character, of real ability and unques-
tioned patriotism, and he proved himself a most ad-
mirable presiding officer. Firm, cool, impartial, just, he
had challenged the admiration of the country for the
manner in which he discharged his difficult and respon-
sible duties. Every effort was made to have him with-
draw his resignation, but he persistently refused to do so.
A new election was therefore necessary, and M. Buffet,
whom the papers called, indifferently, " Orlanist," " Im-
perialist," " Legitimist," was chosena man particularly
distinguished for his hatred of the republicans. This re-
signation of Grvy and the election of Buffet, a bitter re-
actionist, created a great deal of feeling. No less than
three " Droiters," as they were then called by the radicals
{members of the Extreme Right), were challenged by the
Extreme Left to make "reparation by arms," and in each
case the " Droiters," it has been claimed (to use a Western
phrase), " took to the timber."
Soon after this the Assembly took a recess and M.
Thiers then came into Paris to take up his official resi-
dence in the Palace of the Elyse. In writing to a friend
about this time in relation to M. Thiers, I asked him what
he thought of a man, seventy-six years old, holding a posi-
tion of such labor and responsibility, giving a dinner-party
every night of his life, and holding a reception till mid-
night, and then up the next morning at work at five o'clock.
Dear Luca:

          Thank you so much for your telegram.   Ue do look forward
       to seeing you, if not in Stockholm, then in Italy, and we have
   ( made the fol lowing tentative re ervations.  We can leave Stockholm
  L'  after the presentation ceremony Saturday, Oecemberl3, stopping
w 1o.l   over the night at Copenhagen. 5
                         We coul d then f 1 y f ram Copenhagen

to Mi 1 an on Sunday, December 14, on Fl i ght SAS 683, arriving tli I an
at 12:50 PH.  We have return reservations from Paris on Wednesday,
December 17, leaving 6 P?4 on the Pan American jet flight to New
York.  We had two alternatives in Mnd for getting to Paris and
would 1 i ke to know what you would think of either of them.   In
any case for this time of year we would have thought it a de1 ightful
diversion to go to the Riveria.  I thought of asking whether it
would be possible either for us to make a round trip from Milan
to Liguria and back in time for the flight which leaves nilan at
I1 Ml Wednedday or, if this had any appeal for you, whether we
could take the two days or so to go down to the French Ri veris
ai so and return to Paris from Nice.  There's a flight leaving
Nice Wednesday morning at 9:X PH.   I real I y have no i dea how
practical these suggestions are in terms of the seasons and you
personal ef fai rs, and so on, but it seems best to put them to you
in a direct way in order to get your reaction.

   If none of these ideas are sui tabI& we wi I1 be very happy to
see you under any circumstances including even spending the whole
Xi.- in Hilan al though we would consider it much more de1 ightful
if we could possibly get away together with you and Al be in some
privacy.  The one thing I will ask of you is please not to schedule
any public appearances as I am getting rather hypersensitive about
that.

All love,

again a given distance from Tionnontoguen, the third. Both of these are found at the precise points thus indicated.
To sum up, a few only of these details thus verified would render strongly probable the identification of the sites; the meeting of all in one spot places it beyond reasonable doubt; while the fact that no other spot of the carefully explored Mohawk Valley verifies any number of them taken together, as General Clark from personal study of every site known by map, account, or tradition declares positively, puts the matter beyond all possible doub.t, or, in other words, gives the conclusion absolute certainty.
On the plateau the outline of the Indian town is still visible, and remains of Indian occupation have been constantly found there. The field in which are found the chief remains of the Indian village has recently been bought by the Fathers of the Society of Jesus. They are now (1885) taking steps toward the erection of a chapel on the site; this will restore the shrine of Notre Dame de Foy, which existed in the flourishing mission church among the Mohawks until broken up by the threatened war between the French and English in 1684. It will also serve as an historical commemoration of the blood shed in this spot by Ren6 Goupil and Father Jogues, and the many other French and Indian Christians here massacred, and of the edifying Christian church which later on sprung from their blood, renewing the holiness of the primitive age of Christianity in the good Catherine Tegakwita and her companions.
All these circumstances, and the finding during the necessary researches of the necessary documents for taking up the Cause of Beatification, led to the presentation of the whole matter before the Third Plenary Council of Baltimore in December, 1884. This resulted in a Conciliar petition to the Holy Father, Leo XIII., for the formal introduction before the Sacred Congregation

Spirits and Malt Beverages

U.S.  TTB
 

Dear U.S.  TTB,

I am writing to you today to ask why it is that alcoholic beverages are the only consumable product that is exempt from disclosing serving information like calories, fat, carbohydrates and alcohol per serving. I noticed that everything else I buy at the grocery store contains this kind of information, but a six-pack, for some reason, doesn't have this on the label. 

I assume there must be a reason why you have not allowed companies to put Serving Facts on their labels, but I urge you to re-think this issue. 

I know there are many others beer drinkers like myself who would use this information, even if they don't go out of their way to write a letter to you. 

Please allow alcoholic beverage companies to put this information on their labels. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

James Brack

QUESTION:
Knowing that Jupiter radiates twice as much heat energy as it gets from the
sun, did the probe send you any information about the source of that energy?

ANSWER from Bob Gounley on February 21, 1996:  
The Galileo Probe did shed some light on the subject, although we already
had a pretty good idea of the heat source before then.

Jupiter is so large that it has kept much of the heat left over from the
formation.  The center of any object holds heat best since from there it
takes the longest to reach the outside.  That's one reason why Jupiter's
temperatures are relatively cool just below the cloud layers and get
progressively warmer the deeper you go.  It's a lot like a freshly baked
loaf of bread. 

The cooling takes a long time because Jupiter's gravity puts a lot of
pressure on everything in the middle.  Whenever you squeeze something and
try to make it smaller, it gives off heat.  That is the heat source --
Jupiter's gravity trying to make it into a smaller ball. 

So why isn't Jupiter a small ball?  Well, when you heat heat something, it
tries to grow.  Now you have gravity and heat fighting each other, one
trying to make Jupiter smaller and the other trying to make it bigger. 
Jupiter is the size it is now because the two forces balance each other. 

The Sun gives Jupiter some heat, though it mostly goes to warm the
cloudtops and the air just below it.  We can't send a probe all the way to
the center of Jupiter -- it would be crushed.  However, the Galileo Probe
had sensors on it to tell how much heat came from above (the Sun) and how
much from below (gravitational heating). With this information, scientist
will get a better idea of how warm things are inside. 

Now let's play a "what if" game.  What if Jupiter started out a whole lot 
bigger?  The pressures and temperatures in the middle would be really high.  
Warm and squeeze hydrogen atoms enough and they helium atoms and heat.  A lot 
more heat.  You would have a star, just like our sun.

Think about this the next time you see the sky at night.  If Jupiter had
been bigger, there would be a second sun in the sky.  Much of the time,
its light would hide the stars.  The rest of the year, with Jupiter and
the Sun in the same part of the sky, you would cast two shadows.  Can you
think of other things that would be different?

 By the Assistant Chief, Audio Division, Media Bureau:
 1. The Audio Division has before it a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking 1 issued at the request of Dr. Sandra L. Woodruff ( Petitioner) requesting the allotment of Channel 229C3 at Tenino,
 Washington, as the communitys first local service. Petitioner did not file comments reiterating her continuing interest in applying for Channel 229C3 at Tenino. 2 No other comments or counterproposals
 were received.
 2. As stated in the Notice, a showing of continuing interest is required before a channel will be allotted. It is the Commissions policy to refrain from making an allotment to a community absent an

 expression of interest. Therefore, since no such continuing interest has been expressed for an allotment at Tenino, Washington, we will dismiss Petitioners proposal.

 3. This document is not subject to the Congressional Review Act. (The Commission, is, therefore, not required to submit a copy of this Report and Order to Government Accountability Office,
 pursuant to the Congressional Review Act, see 5 U. S. C. Section 801( a)( 1)( A) since this proposed rule is dismissed, herein.)

 4. In view of the above, IT IS ORDERED That the Petition for Rule Making filed by Dr. Sandra L. Woodruff (RM- 11236), requesting the allotment of Channel 229C3 at Tenino, Washington, IS
 DISMISSED.
 5. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, That this proceeding IS TERMINATED.

 1 See Tenino, Washington, 20 FCC Rcd 8835 (MB 2005).

<p><b><font size="+1"> Laboratory should pay the gross receipts tax</font></b></p>
<p> Much in the local news lately, and even in the Daily Newsbulletin, is the
  issue of the Laboratory payment of the New Mexico gross receipts tax.
  The Lab has been exempt
  from the tax, on the basis of University of California's non-profit status.
  This exemption costs New Mexico about $70 million per year in lost revenue.
  Sandia
  National Laboratories pays
  the
  tax. I believe that the Lab should pay the tax, because it is in exactly
  the same
business (nuclear weapons) as Sandia.</p>
<p>Lab leadership continues to oppose this
  tax, treating the issue as a &quot;zero
sum&quot; game, where the Lab would not be reimbursed by the Department of Energy
for the tax. This assumption seems, on the face of it, unreasonable. If DOE can
pay
the
tax
at
Sandia, surely
they can pay it for the Lab. The current situation is nothing less than a
$70 million subsidy of the federal government by New Mexico, one of the poorest
states
in
the country.</p>
<p>Removing UC from the Lab, and awarding the contract to Lockheed Martin
  (Sandia's operator), would result in the tax being paid. Is that the only way
  to collect
  it? I hope that the Lab's public position becomes more balanced on this
  issue. Certainly, with Senator Domenici in such a powerful position (head
  of the
  Energy and Natural
  Resource Committee) the first, and likely, result of paying the tax would be
  simply to have the Lab budget increased to pay it. Only if that fails, and
  I don't expect this, would the Lab have to find the money within its current
  budget. The New Mexico Legislature understands this, and they do not find the
  Lab's attempts
  to avoid the tax credible or useful.</p>
<p>There is no reason to treat this issue
  as a &quot;zero sum&quot; game. I believe
  that the Lab should be a good citizen of this state and pay its taxes, including
  the gross receipts tax, cheerfully. The state needs the money, and this unwarranted
  subsidy should end.</p>

in the context of meeting life goals and acquiring life 
skills, while incorporating youth development principles. Because of the demonstrative nature of the grant, 
projects are able to implement exciting new program 
strategies that stretch beyond classroom instruction. 
These new approaches are independently evaluated for 
five years. 

Each Prevention project is unique. All grantees are required to adhere to Title XX legislation that stipulates 
certain guidelines for services as well as the Welfare Reform legislation (P.L. 104-193) that defines the parameters 
for abstinence education. Services can be implemented 
using varying models. Prevention services are offered 
through a wide range of organizations, from school districts to community-based organizations to universities 
to local clinics. Each grantee is encouraged to develop an 
innovative approach to providing abstinence education 
activities to their respective population. 

The Title XX statute explicitly lists the services that may 
be provided by AFL prevention demonstration grantees 
(Section 2002). Among them are traditional abstinence 
education services covering self-discipline and responsibility with respect to sexuality, as well as the problems 
associated with premarital sexual relations. Services for the 
adolescents family are extensively covered: counseling; 
outreach services to discourage adolescent sexual activity; and development of materials to support the role 
of parents as providers of sexuality education. Involving 
parents in the lives of their children is an important and 
consistent theme in the Title XX statute and has been a 
major focus for the AFL program in the administration of 
these demonstration grants. 

Prevention demonstration projects also include independent evaluations. The evaluation component is 
designed to test the effectiveness of innovative projects. 
Each project works directly with an independent evaluator to design and implement an evaluation that will 
address issues relevant to the field of adolescent pregnancy. 
The evaluation is an integral part of the demonstration 
project.
