FOR YOUR INFORMATION...................March 20, 1987

     The Federal Trade Commission staff has recommended that the
New Mexico legislature not enact various bills that could harm
consumers.  In letters to Governor Garrey Carruthers, the FTC
staff addressed the bills, which cover licensing interior
designers, imposing ceilings on interest rates, and restricting
accountants' ability to solicit clients.

Interior Designers

     The Interior Designers Act would establish a licensing
system for interior designers, regulate the practice of interior
design, establish the Interior Design Advisory Board, and
prohibit the use of the title of "interior designer" by
unlicensed persons.  The bill would "allow unlicensed individuals
to render interior design services so long as they do not
identify themselves as 'interior designers.'"  The FTC staff said
that this restriction on using the title is likely to prevent
some individuals from entering the profession, which is likely to
increase the prices of design services and limit consumer choices
when selecting an interior designer.

Interest Ceilings

     Two bills would impose interest rate ceilings on credit card
transactions, and another bill would impose an interest rate
ceiling on all credit transactions.  The FTC staff noted that
while the Commission does not regulate interest rates, it is
"directly and actively involved in other consumer credit
regulations."  According to the staff, "Our experience and the
economic literature on maximum pricing regulations both indicate
that ceilings on interest rates are accompanied by substantial
harm to many consumers."  When interest rates are set at a level
below the competitive rate, lenders reduce the amount of credit
available and compensate for the lower rate by adding or
increasing other charges, such as annual fees and down payments,
the staff noted.

Accountants' Solicitation

     The bill would prohibit accountants from soliciting people
"not known to be seeking public accounting services."  The FTC
staff said that this ban "would prohibit truthful, nondeceptive
communications in circumstances that pose little or no risk of
harm to consumers."  According to the staff, such communication
"promotes the efficient delivery of services and facilitates
purchasing decisions that reflect true consumer preferences."

     The letters represent the views of the FTC's Dallas Regional
Office and the Bureaus of Competition, Consumer Protection, and
Economics, and do not necessarily reflect the views of the
Commission or any individual Commissioner.

Seeb, J. E., L. W. Seeb, D. W. Oates and F. M. Utter (1987).  Genetic variation 
and postglacial dispersal of populations of northern pike Esox lucius in North 
America. Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences.  44:556-561.
	
The authors studied the genetic relationships and postglacial dispersal of 
northern pike Esox lucius populations in North America using allozyme data. 
Allelic products of up to 65 protein coding loci were examined in eight 
populations: five from drainages in western Canada; two from the Missouri River 
drainage, and one from the upper Mississippi River drainage. Only two 
polymorphic loci were identified, Est-1 and Ck-1, and the average observed 
heterozygosity was only 0.001. All of the populations from the drainages in 
western Canada and the Missouri River were genetically identical. The 
Mississippi River population was unique, expressing Ck-1(140), an allele nearly 
absent in all other populations, at a frequency of 0.99.

DESPERATION OF THE INSURGENTS.            121
having been struck by the shells fired at the Porte Dau-
phine."
The explosion of cartouches in the Avenue Rapp cut
a great figure at the time, and was a dreadful affair.
It seems that on the afternoon of May 17th I sent my
faithful messenger, Antoine, to whom reference has here-
tofore been made, on a certain mission for one of my
compatriots. He was a native of Luxembourg, and
spoke German and French very well, but he was not
very well up in English. In performing this duty, An-
toine was unfortunately caught in the vicinity of the
Avenue Rapp at the time of the explosion and, at my re-
quest, he afterward wrote out an account of it, putting
it into rather bad English. I copy it exactly as he wrote
it, and present it here as one of the most interesting ac-
counts of that affair that I have seen :
At five o'clock p.m. this day, the 17th of May, 1871, I went by in-
struction of Mr. Washburne, the Minister of the United States, in
France, on the search of Mrs. Seymour's furniture. As the addresses
wishe she has given are on at the cole Militaire, the other Port d'or I
did not stop but went directly at the cole Militaire where I inquired
for the Port d'or. went to the several officers de services, but no one
could tell me where the port d'or was. from there I decided to go to
an other pleace to see and had to walk all trough the Champ de Mars,
when I was about the 3de quarter of the way near the corner of the
Avenue Rapp, an explosion took pleace, by the 1st comotion I was
trown on to ground. I was willing to stand up and run out of the dan-
ger of the fire, where pieces of wood wish were still burning and pieces
of iron stones and all sort of material were flying all around with such a
fury mixsed up of the boullet wish the explosion of the pouder trow
away, the second time I tryed to stand up an other explosion took
place, and rushed me over the cround like a ballon ; could not stand by
the commotion of the pouder exploding and could not rounn away, a
momment I heard and saw four horses belonging to the Compnie of
the Omnubus I saw them callopping on my direction, then I assembled
all my force and ron about ten metres before I could stand up again to

Radio Address of Agriculture Secretary Dan Glickman
                                 
                                            Release No. 0404.98

      Radio Address of Agriculture Secretary Dan Glickman
                         October 5, 1998

     President Franklin Roosevelt called America's farm families 'the source from which the
reservoirs of our nation's strength are constantly renewed.' 

     Unfortunately, while the U.S. economy is doing very well today, America's farm
economy is plunging into its deepest crisis in decades. Many farm families will see their net
income drop by more than 40 percent this year, and 1999 has yet to show any real prospects for
recovery. 

     Under legislation President Clinton signed, farmers will get their 1999 payments sooner,
and we are purchasing surplus wheat for donation to hungry people around the world. But with
crop and livestock prices still dropping, with foreign markets still in danger of collapse, we must
do more.

     Before the legislative session ends, Congress must act to protect America's farmers. The
President and I strongly favor an emergency assistance package that more adequately responds to
the stresses in the farm economy than what Congressional leaders so far have been willing to
support. President Clinton and I believe our nation has an obligation to help farmers in an
emergency, and ensure that those tottering on the financial brink have the resources they need to
plan for a Spring crop instead of the Spring auction of yet another family farm.

     This Administration's comprehensive plan includes assistance to farmers who have
suffered successive years of disaster losses, as well as help for those hit by this year's drought.
Our plan also takes steps to reinforce the farm safety net, including support for Senators Harkin
and Daschle's proposal to lift the cap on marketing loan rates for one year.

     With Congress in town for just a few more days, it must give priority to helping farmers
and ranchers. Throughout our history, America's farm families have sustained our nation --
growing our economy, feeding our people and our sense of ourselves. Today, our nation has the
opportunity to return the favor in hard times, and help America's farm men and women. We
should take strong action. It is the right course for U.S. agriculture and for our nation.

*Satellite(s) Involved:*
NOAA-18, MetOp

*Product(s) Involved/Affected:*
MIRS V.1 products  Temperature Profiles (over ocean), Moisture Profiles 
(over ocean), Total Precipitable Water (over ocean), Land Surface 
Temperature, Land Surface Emissivity over all AMSU-A and MHS channels.

*Date/Time(UTC) of Initial Implementation:*
30 Aug 2007, 0000 UTC

*Details/Specifics of Change:*
Operational products are made available from Microwave Integrated 
Retrieval System (MIRS), which has been designed and developed to 
provide the enhanced/new microwave surface and precipitation products to 
satisfy user's requirements on quality and timeliness. It is based on an 
assimilation-type scheme (1DVAR) and capable of optimally retrieving 
atmospheric and surface state parameters simultaneously. It upgrades 
current NESDIS operational Microwave Surface and Precipitation Product 
System (MSPPS) with enhanced surface and precipitation products and also 
profiling capability in all-weather and over all-surface conditions. The 
MIRS products will be implemented into operation through a stratified 
phase approach. Implemented here are its Phase-I & Phase-II products, 
which includes temperature and moisture profiles over ocean, Total 
Precipitable Water (TPW) over ocean, and land surface temperature and 
land surface emissivity over all Advance Microwave Sounding Units-A 
(AMSU-A) and Microwave Humidity Sounder (MHS) channels.

HISTORY OF SETTLEMENTS AND TRADE
to the rich, who are marked out as delinquents, mere-
ly becaufe they are rich, be their fortunes well or
ill gotten. It gives encouragement to informers, who
point out as fit objeds for tyranny fuch as it may be
advantageous to ruin. It is compofed of unmerciful
leeches, who fee guilt wherever they fufped there
is wealth. It fpares plunderers, who know how to
fcreen themfelves by a feafonable facrifice of part of
their riches, and fpoils honeft men who think them-
felves fecure in their innocence. It facrifices the in-
terefts of the treafury to the caprices of a few greedy,
profligate, and extravagant favourites.
All the fprings of the ftate were deftroyed, before
this refource, which bore evident marks of the paf.
fions and prejudice, had been experienced. The fi.
tuation of the body politic became ftill more defpe-
rate, after this convulfive effort. The members of
the ftate loft the little they had left of energy and
life ; fo that it became neceffary to re-animate the
corpfe. This refurredion was not an impoffible thing,
becaufe there was a'general difpofition prevailing to
make ufe of any remedies that were propofed ; the
difficulty was to propofe none but fuch as would be
effedual : The celebrated Law made the attempt.
This Scotchman was one of thofe projedors, or
Slate empirics, who are conftantly roaming about the
courts of Europe, difplaying their talents, and hur-
ried on by a reftlefs difpofition. He was a deep cal-
culator ; and at the fame time, which appears rather
inconfiftent, endowed with a moft lively and ardent
imagination. His turn of mind and charader proved
agreeable to the regent, over whofe underftanding he
foon gained an influence. Law engaged himfelf that
he would re-eftablifh the finances of the kingdom,
and eafily prevailed upon that prince, who was a man
of diffipation and genius, to countenance a plan which
promifed him wealth and reputation. We fhall now
give an account of the feries and refult of his opera-
tions.

QUESTION:
How well does all the research, training, experimentation, and education
prepare for the true-to-life experiences of space exploration?  What
significant experiences were you unprepared for when you first became a member
of the Mars team?

ANSWER from Rich Hogen on May 4, 2000:
There are a great many roles involved in design, development, operations
development and flight operations, accomodating different tasks, experience
levels, etc. all the way through personal styles.  I suspect that answers to
your question can not be generalized, especially since the industry changes
over time and with each mission.  In the current climate, there is very
little training other than OJT (on-the-job training), and there are fewer
people on the engineering side of the fence with a science background than
one might expect.

Any combination of experiences which provide a solid foundation in the
specialty of your choice (by the way, "generalist" is a specialty called
"system engineer") will work, and that course depends on your innate
talents, your interests, your style, and of course your discipline and
motivation.  There are a great many skills applicable to space exploration
as well as any other type of work, and many such skills are usually not
taught in classical curricula.  For example, good communication skills are
very helpful, as coordination between and among teams is a crucial aspect of
complex space mission development and operation.
