TITLE:   GCN GRB OBSERVATION REPORT
NUMBER:  4005
SUBJECT: GRB050820B: analysis of the XMM-Newton observation
DATE:    05/09/20 16:59:46 GMT
FROM:    Andrea De Luca at IASF-CNR,Milano  <deluca@mi.iasf.cnr.it>

Andrea De Luca (IASF Mi) on behalf of a larger collaboraton
report:

We have analyzed the data from the XMM-Newton observation
of GRB050820B, discovered by Swift (Page et al., GCN3839)
on 2005, August 20 at  23:50:27 UT.

The XMM-Newton observation started on 2005, August 21 at 
05:21:30 UT (~5h 30min after the GRB) and lasted for 58.5 ks.
We report here on the analysis of the data collected by
the EPIC instrument.

As reported by Rodriguez & Calderon (GCN3844),
the afterglow of GRB050820B is detected in all the EPIC cameras.
The background-subtracted, time-averaged count rate in the pn camera, 
estimated from a 25" radius extraction region (containing ~80% 
of the total counts), is 0.014+/-0.001 cts/s in the 0.2-8 keV
energy range.

We improved the astrometry of the XMM-Newton/EPIC images
by matching X-ray sources in the field to stars in the USNO-B1
catalogue. The refined position (J2000) for the X-ray afterglow is

RA: 09h 02m 25.03s Dec: -72d 38' 44.0" 

The 1 sigma error radius is 1.5 arcsec (including the rms error on
the cross-correlation as well as systematic uncertainties in the
optical catalogue). The position is consistent with the XRT
coordinates reported by Burrows (GCN3842).

The afterglow is clearly seen to fade along the XMM-Newton
observation, spanning the time range 20-79 ks after
the GRB. The background-subtracted light curve (0.3-3 keV)
decays as a power law with index delta=1.55+/-0.15 (90% c.l.)
(reduced chi2=1.3, 28 d.o.f.).

We extracted time-averaged spectra from the three EPIC cameras 
and we generated ad-hoc response files. 
We quote here errors at 90% confidence level for a single interesting
parameter.
A simultaneous fit with an absorbed power law model yields a good
description of the data (reduced chi2=0.90, 67 d.o.f.). The best fit value 
for the NH is 1.6+/-0.4x10^21 cm^-2, somewhat higher than the expected
Galactic value in the burst direction (NH~8x10^20 cm^-2, Dickey & Lockman, 
1990); the best fitting power law photon index is Gamma=2.3+/-0.2.
The observed flux in the 0.2-10 keV range is 4.1x10^-14 erg cm^-2 s^-1,
corresponding to an unabsorbed flux of 7.7x10^-14 erg cm^-2 s^-1.

No significant spectral variation as a function of the time is
found in the data.

I am writing to express my support for the application of Alaska
Airlines for new "beyond-perimeter" slots at Ronald Reagan Washington
National Airport (DCA). Alaska's plan to offer two additional round trips between Seattle and DCA will provide much needed nonstop access for people like me who travel often to the nations' capital for business.

The two additional Seattle flights proposed by Alaska would be routed
to provide same-plane, one-stop service to multiple new markets in the
state of Alaska. In addition, both new flights would be timed to offer
enhanced connections to people living in communities throughout the
Pacific Northwest served by Horizon Air.

Approving this application would also clearly "increase competition by
new entrant / limited incumbent air carriers." Although Alaska
Airlines has a major presence on the West Coast, it currently has only
two slots at DCA, allowing only a single daily round-trip flight to
Seattle.

Please allow Alaska Airlines the opportunity to offer its award-
winning customer service to travelers between the West Coast and DCA
by granting Alaska Airlines the slots to add service to Reagan
National Airport from Seattle as described above.

Thank you for your consideration.
Howe, G. E., Rach, J. J., and Olson, J. J., 1998, Method for inducing
saprolegniasis in channel catfish: Journal of Aquatic Animal Health, v. 10, no.
1, p. 62-68.

Abstract

A method was developed to uniformly and systematically induce
saprolegniasis in channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus. Three different methods
for inducing saprolegniasis were evaluated in waters containing known
zoospore concentrations of Saprolegnia parasitica (1) low-temperature shock
to induce immunosuppression: (2) physical abrasion stress; and (3) a
combination of both low temperature shock and abrasion stress.
Low-temperature shock or abrasion stress alone were not effective for
inducing saprolegniasis. Only 10% of fish stressed by low-temperature shock
alone became infected. No fish receiving abrasion stress treatments alone
became infected even though these fish were subject to significant abrasion
and dewatering stress. A combination of low-temperature and abrasion stress,
however, was sufficient to induce saprolegniasis in 100% of fish tested and
resulted in 90% mortality. No fish became infected in the positive control
group (exposed to zoospores of S. Parasitica without stress) or in the negative
control group. The combined-stress method should enable researchers to
induce saprolegniasis in channel catfish at will to study its pathogenesis or to
test the efficacy of candidate antifungal treatments. In conducting efficacy
studies, therapeutic treatments must begin immediately when the first signs of
saprolegniasis are observed because the disease progresses quickly and is
deadly.

MyPyramid Podcast #11: Have a Safe Picnic

Brian Wansink: Nooooo! Whoa! That was close. That food's been sitting out all day. Hi. I'm Dr. Brian Wansink, the Executive Director for USDA's Center for Nutrition Policy and Promotion.  Summer's a great time to enjoy a picnic, enjoy the sun, fresh air, and food. There are some easy ways to keep your food safe to eat. 

When you're packing your picnic, make sure you separate your cooked food from your non-perishable food.  Keep cold food cold by using ice packs or frozen drinks. It's important to put prepared food and leftovers into a cooler as soon as possible. As soon as you're through eating it, put it away. Here's one way an innocent summer picnic can go terribly wrong...

In the direct sun, temperatures can be a lot hotter than it seems. So bring along plenty of ice. Keep the cooler shaded, or covered with a blanket. You don't want to be the one who gets sick, or causes other people to get sick. Keep perishable foods cold and out of the sun. Keep the cooler closed and covered. Use cold packs and a thermometer to keep foods at the right temperature. Throw out food that's been sitting out  even if it looks and smells ok. These tips are important to keep in mind year-round, but especially when it's hot outside.

For more food safety ideas, go to the USDA's Food Safety Inspection Service website, or visit us at MyPyramid.gov.

So have fun in the sun, but keep your food out of it.

Roof-to-Wall and Deck-to-Wall Flashing
Home Builders Guide to Coastal Construction
FEMA 499/June 2005
Technical Fact Sheet No. 24
Purpose: To emphasize the importance of proper roof and deck flashing, and to
provide typical and enhanced flashing techniques for coastal homes.
Key Issues
--Poor performance of flashing and subsequent water intrusion is a common
problem for coastal homes.
--Enhanced flashing techniques are recommended in areas that frequently
experience high winds and driving rain.
--Water penetration at deck ledgers can cause wood dry rot and corrosion of
connectors leading to deck collapse.
Roof and Deck Flashing Recommendations for Coastal Areas
--Always lap flashing and other moisture barriers properly.
--Use increased lap lengths for added protection.
--Do not rely on sealant as a substitute for proper lapping.
--Use fasteners that are compatible with or of the same type of metal as the
flashing material.
--Use flashing cement at joints to help secure flashing.
--At roof-to-wall intersections (see Figure 1):
--Use step flashing that has a 2- to 4-inch-longer vertical leg than normal.
--Tape the top of step flashing with 4-inch-wide (minimum) self-adhering
modified bitumen roof tape.
--Do not seal housewrap or building paper to step flashing.
--For deck flashing:
--Follow proper installation sequence to prevent water penetration at deck
ledger (see Figure 2).
--Leave gap between first deck board and flashing to allow for drainage (see
Figure 3).
--Use spacer behind ledger to provide gap for drainage (see Figure 3).
--Use stainless steel deck connection hardware.
See Fact Sheets Nos. 19 and 20 for rake and eave details.

QUESTION:
How much public interest do you think there will be in the Mars Global
Surveyor mission as comapred to the Pathfinder mission?  Do you think that
the public will brush it off and say it's "just another Mars mission"?

ANSWER from Peter Thomas on September 1, 1997:
I suspect there will be somewhat less interest because:

It's an orbital mission that will do its work slowly, and will send few
pictures early on as it goes through the aerobraking. Also, it is a bit
harder for a lot of people to relate to distant vertical views of a world
than to those taken on the surface at eyeball height!

However, depending on what we see, especially with the high resolution
camera, the findings themselves may attract much public attention, and
hopefully help make the point that it takes many different kinds of missions
to explore a planet.  Think of all the different kinds of explorations on
the Earth's continents and oceans, and the fact we still find fundamentally
new things about the earth.

Scientifically, MGS has the potential to be extremely rich, because its
instruments were selected and designed after previous missions indicated
what some of the important questions and measurements are.
Genesis Mission Status 
                     November 16, 2001

     At 11:03 a.m. Pacific time, NASA's Genesis spacecraft 
entered perfectly into orbit around the balanced-gravity point 
Lagrange 1, where it will collect solar wind particles.

     Early this morning, engineers sent a final command to the 
spacecraft to begin operating its hydrazine thrusters for 
about 268 seconds. This put the spacecraft into its final 
orbit to begin the particle-gathering phase of the mission. 
The orbit is at a point where the gravity of Earth and the Sun 
are balanced. This is called the Lagrange 1 point, or L1.

     "The mission operations team did a great job, the orbit 
insertion went off exactly as planned, and we're in our 30-
month science collection orbit," said project manager Chet 
Sasaki, of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif., 
which manages the mission. "The spacecraft is in perfect 
health and we're ready to move into the next phase of its 
mission."

     At the end of this month, Genesis will open its collector 
arrays and begin to monitor and collect the solar wind ions 
flowing from the outer layer of the Sun. The samples of solar 
wind returned by Genesis will help scientists understand how 
the solar system evolved.

     In September 2004, Genesis will return to Earth and 
release capsule containing the samples.  That capsule will be 
caught in mid-air by a helicopter.  The precious samples will 
be airlifted to NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston, where 
they will be distributed for scientific analysis and safely 
curated in order to be available for the next century of 
planetary science studies.

USDA RENAMES BUILDING TO HONOR SIDNEY R. YATES
     WASHINGTON, Jan. 7, 1999 Agriculture Secretary Dan Glickman today
announced the renaming of the Auditor's Main Building, which serves as
headquarters for the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Forest Service, to the
Sidney R. Yates Federal Building.
     "Having served in the House of Representatives with Sidney Yates, I have
first-hand knowledge of his personal commitment to the conservation of the
nation's natural resources," Glickman said.  "For almost half a century, he
was the guiding light for federal efforts in urban and community forestry.  It
is only fitting that we honor him by placing his name on the building which
houses USDA's  Forest Service."
     Yates was first elected to the House of Representatives from Illinois in
November 1948 and served continuously until 1963.  He was reelected to the
House in the fall of 1964, after a bid for a seat in the U.S. Senate and a
subsequent appointment to the United Nations.  Since then he has served as a
member of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Interior and Related
Agencies, which appropriates the Forest Service's budget, and the Subcommittee
on Foreign Operations.
     The new Yates Federal Building is a restored historical structure dating
from 1880.  It is located at the corner of 14th Street and Independence
Avenue, overlooking the Mall and the Washington Monument.  It was first
constructed to house the Bureau of Printing and Engraving, but in 1914, when
the Bureau outgrew the building, it was used as offices for the auditors of
the Navy, Treasury, and State Departments.  Later occupants included USDA,
which eventually took total occupancy of the building.

WHEREIN     A WRIT AND A RIOT FAIL
drawn outward by the undertow till the line at his waist grew taut, then the water surged over him and he was hurled high up on the beach again. He staggered dizzily back to the struggle, when suddenly a wave lifted the capsized cutter and righted it, and out from beneath shot the form of Wheaton, grimly clutching the life-ropes. They brought him in choking and breathless.
"I got it," he said, slapping his streaming breast. "It's all right, Glenister. I knew what delay meant so I took a long chance with the surf." The terrific ordeal he had undergone had blanched him to the lips, his legs wabbled uncertainly, and he would have fallen but for the young man, who thrust an arm about his waist and led him up into the town.
"I went before the Circuit Court of Appeals in 'Frisco," he explained later, "ancd they issued orders allowing an appeal from this court and gave me a writ of supersedeas directed against old Judge Stillman. That tvkes tie litigation out of his hands altogether, and directs McNamara to turn over the Midas and all the gold he's got. What do you think of that ? I did better than I expected."
Glenister wrung his hand silently while a great satisiaction came upon him. At last this waiting was over and his peaceful yielding to injustice had borne fruit; had proven the better course after all, as the girl had prophesied. He could go to her now with clean hands. The mine was his again. He would lay it at her feet, telling her once more of his love and the change it was working in him. He would make her see it, make her see that beneath the harshness his years in the wild had given him, his love for her was gentle and true and an.

{description}   Belching clouds of steam and smoke across the scrub lands at KSC,
                Space Shuttle Atlantis hurtles toward space on mission STS-106
                after liftoff at 8:45:47 a.m. EDT today. On the 11-day mission to
                the International Space Station, the seven-member crew will
                perform support tasks on orbit, transfer supplies and prepare the
                living quarters in the newly arrived Zvezda Service Module. The
                first long-duration crew, dubbed Expedition One, is due to
                arrive at the Station in late fall. Landing of Atlantis is
                targeted for 4:45 a.m. EDT on Sept. 19.

Dear U.S.  TTB,

Today, more than ever, I have information readily available to me about the contents of what I eat and drink. Every can of soup, box of cereal and carton of milk has the nutritional information that helps me make healthy and informed decisions about what I consume.

That is, everything except beverage alcohol. Why is that?

This information is important to me, and I am writing today to request that you allow alcohol companies to include basic information like serving size, alcohol per serving, protein and calories on their packages. 

I urge you to help make that information more readily available to consumers. There is no valid reason not to.

If consumers want this information and the companies that make the products want to provide it, simple common sense says it should happen - now. Please allow beverage alcohol companies to put basic nutritional information on their packages.

Thank you very much for your consideration.

Sincerely,

     This picture of asteroid 951 Gaspra is a combination of the
highest-resolution morphology and color information obtained by
the Galileo spacecraft during its approach to the asteroid on
October 29, 1991.  The Sun is shining from the right; phase angle
is 50 degrees.  The base image is the best black-and-white view
of Gaspra (resolution 54 meters/pixel) on which are superimposed
the subtle color variations constructed from violet, green, and
near-infrared (1000 nanometers) inages taken in an earlier
sequence at a resolution about 164 meters/pixel.
     The very subtle color variations on Gaspa's surface have
been artificially exaggerated here; to first order Gaspra's color
is fairly homogeneous over the surface.  However, subtle albedo
and color variations do occur and are correlated with surface
topography in a significant way.  In this false-color view, the
bluish areas represent regions of slightly higher albedo, which
are also regions of slightly stronger spectral absorption near
1000 nanometers, probably due to the mineral olivine.  These
bluish areas tend to be associated with some of the crisper
craters and with ridges.  The slightly reddish areas, apparently
concentrated in topographic lows, represent regions of somewhat
lower albedo and weaker absorption near 1000 nanometers.  In
general, such patterns can be explained in terms of greater
exposure of fresher rock in the brighter bluish areas and the
accumulation of some regolith materials in the darker reddish
areas.
     Gaspra is an irregular body with dimensions about 19 x 12 x
11 kilometers (12 x 7.5 x 7 miles).  The portion illuminated in
this view is about 18 kilometers (11 miles) from lower left to
upper right.
     This color picture results from a joint effort by image
processing groups at the U. S. Geological Survey in Flagstaff,
Arizona, Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, and JPL.  The
Galileo project, whose primary mission is the exploration of the
Jupiter system in 1995-97, is managed for NASA's Office of Space
Science and Applications by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

SCIENCE  HIGHLIGHTS  April 2005
Bills Looks at Spin Control across the Solar System
Recent Papers Range from Mercury to Jupiter, include Mars Eclipses

Bruce Bills studies how planets wobble. In two recently published papers, Bills describes how the obliquity (tilt of the rotation axis) for Mercury (top left) and the Galilean satellites of Jupiter (bottom left) changes over time . The work describes how the tilt and spin of a body interact with its non-circular motion about its primary, and how these relate to dissipation of internal energy due to tidal deformation.
       Another recently published application of this celestial mechanics is how the Phobos eclipse season changes over time. Solar eclipses on Mars have been observed by the Mars Orbiter Camera (lower right), but Bills has worked out the details of where and when they will occur, and how that changes as the tilt of the rotation axis changes, as it does on long time scales.

When tiny Phobos passes between  the sun and the planet Mars (above), it can cast a shadow on the surface (below), as seen by the Mars Observer Camera.

MyPyramid PodCast #6  Snack Attack

Brian Wansink: [Talking to vending machine] Give me my money back! 

[Talking to camera] Hi! Im Dr Brain Wansink. Im the Executive Director for USDAs Center for Nutrition Policy and Promotion. Do you ever find yourself out of time and trying to grab something to eat real fast? You can do this and still be smart about it. We talked to some people who do.

Brian Wansink: ...find yourself most likely to just grab food?

Person #1: When I, all of a sudden, have a lot of meetings together and I don't have time to eat my lunch but I need to have something in me to keep me going through the day.

Brian Wansink: So what are some of the types of things you usually buy when you're grabbing food and you want to still eat healthy?

Person #1: I look for, like, low-fat crackers. I look for pretzels... maybe a granola bar. Something that'll just fill me up and satisfy me but not have too many calories.

Person #2: I mean if you don't plan ahead you can usually find some place... you have a nearby store where most people are now serving fruit or something that's relatively easy... salad bar...

Brian Wansink: When do you find yourself most likely to grab food during the day?

Person #3: Usually about 10:30, 11 am.

Brian Wansink: So what did you buy today that was so healthy?

Person #3: I bought some bottled water and I bought the little mini bag  the 100-calories pack  of popcorn.

Brian Wansink: So here's how people eat in the real world. It's not like I always dreamed I would eat. Hmmm. But that's just a dream. In the real world, we're often way too busy to eat our dream meal. So when you find yourself in those circumstances, take some tips from people who do it right. First  choose beverages without a lot of added sugars. Good choices are water, low-fat milk, or 100% fruit juice. Second  Choose baked instead of fried snacks. And when you can, make it whole grain. Finally  go for the fruit whenever you can. Bring it from home, stock the desk. If you're down at the local snack shop, look for fresh, canned, or the dried stuff. 

For more great ideas, check out MyPyramid. You can find it at MyPyramid.gov. Now thats what Im talking about!
