Ozark big-eared bat Plecotus townsendii ingens
and
Virginia big-eared bat Plecotus townsendii virginianus

	The range of the endangered
Ozark big-eared bat includes only
a few caves in northwestern and
north-central Arkansas, south-
western Missouri, and eastern
Oklahoma. The total surviving
population of this race is proba-
bly less than 1700. Approximately
1400 inhabit a few caves in east-
ern Oklahoma. In Arkansas, only
two caves are presently known to
be regularly inhabited by colonies
of Ozark big-eared batsa hiber-
nation cave and a nearby materni-
ty cave. The Arkansas population
numbers about 260 individuals.
They are no longer known to exist
in Missouri caves.
	The endangered Virginia big-
eared bat occurs only in certain sections of Kentucky, Virginia, West Virginia,
and North Carolina. The total population of this race is estimated to number
approximately 10,000.
	Because Ozark and Virginia big-eared bats are so rare, little is known about
their respective biologies. However, much is known about the species in other
parts of its range, most of which may also apply to Ozark and Virginia big-eared
bats. In parts of its range, this species occupies buildings in summer. In the
eastern U.S., with rare exception, it has been reported only from caves during
summer and winter.
	Ozark and Virginia big-eared bats hibernate in caves (sometimes mine
where the temperature is 54 degrees F or less but generally above freezir
Cave hibernation sites are often near entrances in well-ventilated areas. If te
peratures near entrances become too extreme, they move to more therma
stable parts of the cave. They hibernate in tight clusters of a few to a hundr
or more individuals. During hibernation, the long ears may be erect or coiled
Solitary bats sometimes hang by only one foot.
	Ozark and Virginia big-eared bat maternity colonies are usually located in r
atively warm parts of caves. During the maternity period, males are apparen
solitary. Where most males spend the summer is unknown.
	Mating begins in autumn and continues into winter. Young females appare
ly mate their first autumn. Sperm are stored during winter, and fertilizati
occurs shortly after arousal from hibernation. A single young is born dun
June.
	Ozark and Virginia big-eared bat pups are large at birth, weighing nearly one-
fourth as much as their mother. They can fly in 2-1/2 to three weeks and
weaned by six weeks. Record longevity for the species, based on recoveries
banded bats, is 16 years.
	Ozark and Virginia big-eared bats emerge from caves to forage later th
most bats. It is usually relatively dark before they leave. Observations indicate
most return to roosts before midnight, although bats may leave or return
throughout the night. They forage primarily near tree and shrub foliage. Fo
habits are poorly known, though moths apparently make up part of their diet.
	No long distance migrations have been reported for this species. Band
individuals have rarely been recovered more than 20 miles from the band]
site. Like many other bats, they return year after year to the same roost sites.

Spirits and Malt Beverages

U.S.  TTB 

Dear U.S.  TTB,

I have come to expect that any packaged food and beverage I consume contains basic information like serving size and the amount of protein, per serving. Food, nonalcoholic beverages, drugs, even dietary supplements all provide basic consumer facts about the product on the label. But I noticed that for some reason, alcoholic beverages are exempt from this standard.                                                                                                         I am writing to you today to ask the TTB to make this information readily available to consumers. I know that some companies that sell their products around the world voluntarily provide standard drinks information on product labels in the United Kingdom, and I don?t understand why the federal government doesn?t allow disclosure of this information in the U.S.                                                                                                                Diageo's proposed Serving Facts label will provide important, basic information like alcohol content, serving size, and alcohol per serving. This information will help adults know what they are drinking and to moderate their consumption.

Please provide consumers this information. There is no reason not to.

Thank you very much for your consideration.

Sincerely,

Eunice Perez

gated ? Would there not be always ill blood between the
parties? Separation is perhaps a misfortune, but to-day the
misfortune is irreparable. Let it be admitted that the North
has the law, the letter and the spirit of the constitution on her
side, there remains always an undebateable point: the South
wills to be master at the South. You have not the right to
crush a people that fights so bravely.    Resign yourselves."  .
If we were less enervated by the luxuries of modern life and
by the idleness of a long peace, if our hearts still retained some
remnant of that patriotism which, in 1792, sent our forefathers
to the shores of the Rhine, the answer would be an easy one.
To-day I fear we can no longer comprehend it. If to-morrow
the south of France should revolt and demand separation, if
Alsace and Lorraine wished to isolate themselves, what would
be, I do not say our right, but our duty ? Would we stop to
count votes, to know if a third or a half of the French people
had a right to destroy the national unity, to annihilate France,
to rend in fragments the glorious heritage bought with the
blood of our fathers ? h!o, we would take up our muskets and
march. Woe to him who does not feel that his country is
sacred, and that it is glorious to defend it, even at the cost of all
possible sufferings and dangers.
" America is not France ; it is a confederation, it is not a
nation." Who says that? The South, to justify her crime. The
North says the contrary, and for two years, at the price of
sacrifices without number, affirms that the people of the United
States are one people, and that their country shall not be cut
in two. This is noble. This is grand, and what astonishes me
is, that France can remain unmoved in view of such patriotism.
Love of countryis not that the distinguishing virtue of the
French people'?
^ What, then, is the South, and whence does she derive this
right of separation, so loudly proclaimed? Is it a conquered
people that seeks to recover its independence, like Lombardy ?
Is it a distinct race that wishes no longer to continue an op-
pressive alliance ? No, they are communities of planters estab-
lished by American hands, on the territories of the Union, who
revolt without any other reason than their own ambition. Let
us take a map of the United States.   If we except Virginia, the

22  Textile Mill Products

This major group includes establishments engaged in performing any of the
following operations: (1) preparation of fiber and subsequent manufacturing
of yarn, thread, braids, twine, and cordage; (2) manufacturing broadwoven
fabrics, narrow woven fabrics, knit fabrics, and carpets and rugs from
yarn; (3) dyeing and finishing fiber, yarn, fabrics, and knit apparel; (4)
coating, waterproofing, or otherwise treating fabrics; (5) the integrated
manufacture of knit apparel and other finished articles from yarn; and (6)
the manufacture of felt goods, lace goods, nonwoven fabrics, and
miscellaneous textiles.

This classification makes no distinction between the two types of
organizations which operate in the textile industry: (1) the integrated
mill which purchases materials, produces textiles and related articles
within the establishment, and sells the finished products; and (2) the
contract or commission mill which processes materials owned by others.
Converters or other nonmanufacturing establishments which assign materials
to contract mills for processing, other than knitting, are classified in
nonmanufacturing industries; establishments which assign yarns to outside
contractors or commission knitters for the production of knit products are
classified in industry group 225.

This task list shows a list of TODOs for future development of UTILIB

o Remove references to 'cout' in AbstractHashTable, MultiLL and 
	SimpleHashTable.  These files should use the functions in errmsg.h 
	and use arguments passed in by the user to define a generic 
	stream for I/O.

o Remove or update the src/io/sync_io.cpp commands.

o Implement queueLL and stackLL functionality in LinkedList

o Validate the BasicArray.set_data methods

o Is the BasicArray.at method necessary???

o Document the PackBuffer/UnPackBuffer functions.

o Document the I/O stream functions.

o Validate the SimpleArray::operator< and Simple2DArray::operator< methods.

o Eliminate 256 character limit on the CharString::read method.

o Move MultiLL into the TABU search code.

o Remove Boyd's old Triangular code to an 'archive' directory.

o Remove src/io/sync_io functionality.

o Document logEvent and parameter classes.

o Rename stdlibmpi.h to utilib_mpi.h

o Add support for 'make html' and 'make pdf' for documentation

o Add documentation for inlined operator functions (e.g. operator<<).

o Figure out why #defines in logEvent aren't documented.

o Figure out how to use Discretize s.t. you return size_type's and regular
	integers seperately...

o Check out the QueueArray functionality.

o Resolve coercion issues regarding the use of size_type in SparseMatrix.

o Add 'status' flag to the 'remove' methods for LinkedList and OrderedList 's

o Add configuration option for memdebug.

o Move definition of ADT order sense to a central location.

o Create sorting utilities that take natural comparison functions:
	int compare(TYPE& arg1, TYPE& arg2)

o Should the order arrays used for sorting be required to be unsigned 
	integer arrays?

o Optimize the CharString constructor when given a pointer to a string.
	Right now, it creates a shared object, which is overkill.

o Remove Boolean.h

Hi Erik,

I'm surprised it's still in there. It is based on dense matrix 
multiplications, so the scaling isn't actually that good if you go to 
more sparse systems. I should know; I wrote it...

With a bit of googling I found an old 4.0 manual on the web:
laplace.physics.ubc.ca/VN/nwchem/doc/user/user.001.ps

No guarantees that it works, since the code is no longer supported.

Cheers,

   Herbert

PREFACE.                                                            V
modest as obliging, and condescending as dignified, were among the
noblest products of Nature, in his constitution. The arching canopy of
heaven, the heaving waters of the lakes, Nature's vast solitudes, and the
great prairies of the West, were types, to him, of the Infinite and Ever-
present One, and their silent magic left upon him their undying impress.
Narrow, bigoted, unjust, unbenevolent, irreligious, ignoble, degraded,
untruthful, unsympathetic, he could never be.
His primacy is conceded. In his youth he was superlative among
the many Nimrods around him, "a mighty hunter before the Lord," a
"splendid shot," not surpassed by the Indian; a sportsman by birth,
loading the shoulders of his fleet barb with the game that skimmed the
sky, and chasing, with delight, not only through the air, but through
lines of living prairie fire, the buffalo and elk, the panther and the deer,
and camping at night, unmolested, where the red man roamed. He was-
the first judicial officer, and sole lawgiver over a domain extensive as-
the Empire of France, and where, to-day,a half century gone by,stand
the four great states of Iowa, Minnesota, and the two Dakotas, thronged
with millions of an industrious population, cultured and rich, shielded
by laws their wisdom has framed, and crowned with institutions their
liberality has reared. Their sky-pointing spires rise everywhere, and
glitter heavenward, in the glancing sunlight, where once the smoke of the
wigwam curled, and the savage war-whoop was the only Sabbath bell.
He was the first in a tenderer jurisdiction, the captured conqueror of
one whose personal attractions were, to him, a net of the sweetest entangle-
ment, and a wound whose pain was his pleasure. He was first as fore-
man of the first grand jury ever impaneled west of the Mississippi, in
what is now known as Minnesota, interpreting to a French jury the charge-
of a Saxon judge. He was the first delegate from Wisconsin Territory,
after Wisconsin was admitted as a state with diminished boundaries,
gaining by dint of sheer superiority his seat in Congress, and, after
powerful opposition, securing the passage of a bill organizing the Terri-
tory of Minnesota. He was the first delegate from the Territory of
Minnesota thus organized, and re-elected by the overwhelming voice ot
the people. He was first as president of the Democratic branch of the
convention met in troublous times to form the state constitution, its
guiding genius and its counselor. He was first as the first governor 01
the State of Minnesota he had done so much to found; the stalwart
champion of her honor and credit during the long struggle in which
both were sought by reckless politicians to be destroyed. He was
first as a state military officer, appointed by the governor, with the
powers of a general commanding the state troops, in the fateful hour of

France," he said; although in France there are many beautiful and
curious cloisters. For another reason it has value. The architect
meant it to reassert, with all the art and grace he could command, the
mastery of love, of thought and poetry, in religion, over the masculine,
military energy of the great hall below. The thirteenth century rarely
let slip a chance to insist on this moral that love is law. Saint Francis
was preaching to the birds in 1215 at Assisi, and the architect built
this cloister in 1226 at Mont-Saint-Michel. Both sermons were satu-
rated with the feeling of the time, and both are about equally worth
noting, if one aspires to feel the art.
A conscientious student has yet to climb down the many steps, on
the outside, and look up at the Merveille from below. Few buildings
in France are better worth the trouble. The horizontal line at the roof
measures two hundred and thirty-five feet. The vertical line of the
buttresses measures in round numbers one hundred feet. To make
walls of that height and length stand up at all was no easy matter, as
Robert de Torigny had shown; and so the architect buttressed them
from bottom to top with twelve long buttresses against the thrust of
the interior arches, and three more, bearing against the interior walls.
This gives, on the north front, fifteen strong vertical lines in a space of
two hundred and thirty-five feet. Between these lines the windows
tell their story; the seven long windows of the refectory on one side;
the seven rounded windows of the hall on the other. Even the corner
tower with the charter-house becomes as simple as the rest. The sum
of this impossible wall, and its exaggerated vertical lines, is strength
and intelligence at rest.
The whole Mount still kept the grand style ; it expressed the unity
of Church and State, God and Man, Peace and War, Life and Death,
Good and Bad; it solved the whole problem of the universe. The priest
and the soldier were both at home here, in 1215 as in 1115 or in 1058;
the politician was not outside of it; the sinner was welcome; the poet
was made happy in his own spirit, with a sympathy, almost an affec-

1992.03.12 :  Report -- Smoking and Health

Contact:  Tim Hensley (202) 245-7500 after March 13 (404) 488-
5705
March 12, 1992

       Surgeon General Antonia C. Novello, M.D., M.P.H., today
released Smoking and Health in the Americas, a report predicting
an epidemic of smoking-related disease and death in many coun-
tries of the western hemisphere in the absence of concerted anti-
tobacco efforts.
       The report, the first to cover all countries of the
Americas, was prepared by the Centers for Disease Control's
Office on Smoking and Health in collaboration with the Pan
American Health Organization.  PAHO will soon issue a country-by-
country report on the findings.
       In the past, smoking-related deaths and cigarette use in
Latin America and the Caribbean have been far below those in
North America.  But the new report says smoking prevalence has
risen to 50 percent or more among young people in some urban
areas of Latin America and the Caribbean--and is increasing among
women.  This "augurs poorly for the future,"  according to the
report, unless smoking is reduced by an organized anti-smoking
campaign.
       The report notes that cigarette smoking had a "spectacu-
lar" increase in the United States in the first half of the
twentieth century, continuing until 1964.  Following the release
of the 1964 Surgeon General's Report on Smoking and Health, U.S.
smoking began to decline, according to the new report and there
was "a period of rapid international expansion by the tobacco
companies."
       In making the new report public, Dr. Novello said she
hoped it would lead to systematic efforts against smoking in the
Caribbean and Latin America.  "This report raises great concern
about the devastating health consequences that can result if
current smoking prevalence is not curtailed in the Americas. 
Coordinated campaigns must be launched because progress toward a
smoke-free society requires regional coordination," Dr. Novello
said.
       The report is the 22nd in a series of Surgeons General's
reports on smoking and health mandated by law.  It examines
comprehensive data on historical, epidemiologic, economic and
social issues pertaining to tobacco use in the Americas.
       The Surgeon General's Office is a part of the Public
Health Service within HHS.

Title: Matrix analytical approach to exact distributions of word occurrences and local maximum score in Markov dependent sequences 


In this talk, I present solutions for two exact distributions, one for word occurrences and one for the local maximum score in Markov dependent sequences. The talk exemplifies the methods with DNA or protein models based on Markov chains of order 1, but the methods generalize to higher order Markov models.

The expected frequency of some patterns (words) and the distribution of the distance between the occurrences of patterns in biological sequences has been extensively studied because it has many applications in genome analysis. Both the exact distribution, along with normal approximations or
(Compound) Poisson approximations, are now known. Previous theory gives the exact distribution as a very complicated formula. Here I can give the exact distribution as a simple formula. The formula is based on an intuitive decomposition of the transition matrix into two matrices according to whether or not the pattern occurred. Both simple and complicated formulas require computation time proportional to the sequence length.  We present empirical study results using both promoter set and random human genome set. Monte Carlo simulation study results are also presented.  

In addition, I present an algorithm to calculate the exact p-value of local maximum score in Markov sequences. This algorithm depends on the local maximum score, the number of Markov state, and the sequence length. The Monte Carlo simulation study results are also presented.

KAB
STS-80
Report # 07 
Friday, November 22, 1996  5 p.m. CST
 
 Columbia's crew is poised to release the second satellite of shuttle
mission STS-80 -- the Wake Shield Facility -- at 7:06 p.m. CST.

  Astronaut Tom Jones unberthed the WSF satellite from its latched
position in the shuttle cargo bay on schedule today at 2:56 p.m. Jones
positioned the satellite over the left-hand edge of the cargo bay with
the WSF underside facing into the direction of travel. This position
allows atomic oxygen to &quot;cleanse&quot; the satellite's
underside in preparation for its experiment operations. WSF will
investigate using the ultra-pure vacuum of space to create advanced
semiconductor materials.

  The atomic oxygen cleaning is scheduled to last about two and a half
hours. At about 5:45 p.m. CST, Jones will maneuver Columbia's
mechanical arm to position the satellite over the opposite side of the
shuttle cargo bay, facing in the same direction it will during its
free flight. In this position, controllers will verify and calibrate
the operation of the WSF's attitude control system. For release,
Jones will position the satellite high above Columbia's payload
bay, with the underside of the WSF facing away from the direction of
travel. The release window that opens at 7:06 p.m. will be 41 minutes
long. Two backup opportunities to release the satellite exist this
evening as well.

  At the time WSF is released, the first satellite deployed by
Columbia, the ORFEUS-SPAS astronomy satellite, will be about 58 miles
behind the shuttle. During the time both satellites are flying free of
the shuttle, WSF will remain about 28 miles from ORFEUS-SPAS and about
23 miles from Columbia.
