### §205b. Declaration of policy

It is therefore the declared policy of the United States—

(1) to designate the metric system of measurement as the preferred system of weights and measures for United States trade and commerce;

(2) to require that each Federal agency, by a date certain and to the extent economically feasible by the end of the fiscal year 1992, use the metric system of measurement in its procurements, grants, and other business-related activities, except to the extent that such use is impractical or is likely to cause significant inefficiencies or loss of markets to United States firms, such as when foreign competitors are producing competing products in non-metric units;

(3) to seek out ways to increase understanding of the metric system of measurement through educational information and guidance and in Government publications; and

(4) to permit the continued use of traditional systems of weights and measures in non-business activities.

Operative part of the judgment

Operative part of the judgment

Article 10 of Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 October 2003 establishing a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community and amending Council Directive 96/61/EC must be interpreted as not precluding application of national legislative measures, such as those at issue in the main proceedings, the purpose and effect of which are to reduce remuneration for electricity production by an amount equal to the increase in such remuneration brought about through the incorporation, in the selling prices offered on the wholesale electricity market, of the value of the emission allowances allocated free of charge.

# BREATHING RETRAINING FOR ADULTS

Most of us realize that our breathing affects the way that we feel.  For example, when you are upset, you may think of taking a deep breath to calm down.  Or, when you are anxious, you may breathe in quick, shallow breaths.  Very often, when people become frightened or upset, they feel like they need more air, and they may hyperventilate (breathing very quickly and shallow) in response to that feeling.  Taking a deep breath or breathing quickly often does not help.  In fact, hyperventilation causes anxious feelings.  Unless you are preparing for a really dangerous situation, you often don’t need as much air as you take in.  When you hyperventilate and take in more air, it signals your body to prepare for danger.  If you feel anxious and want to calm down, you need to slow down your breathing and take in *less* air.  **You should take a normal breath and exhale slowly.**  It is *exhaling* that is associated with relaxation, not *inhaling*.

Breathing fast and taking deep breaths are common responses to stress and anxiety.  Such habits can be hard to break.  Learning to control your breathing takes daily practice.  You will find it helpful to first practice at times when you are not anxious.  Later, when you have learned breathing awareness and control, you will find it helpful in more stressful situations.

· Increase awareness of your breathing patterns.

· Slow down your breathing.

· Practice using breathing exercises to decrease your anxiety.

# Instruction	

1. Take a normal breath in through your nose with your mouth closed.

2. Exhale slowly through your nose with your mouth closed.

3. When exhaling, say the word **CALM** or **RELAX** (or some other word that you find soothing) very slowly, for example: “c-a-a-a-a-a-a-l-m”   or   “r-e-e-e-e-l-a-a-a-x.”

4. Count slowly to four and then take the next inhalation.

5. Practice this exercise several times a day, taking 10 to 15 breaths at each practice.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

3-Dimensional Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("3-DP") has received a representation
letter from Arthur Andersen LLP ("Andersen"), 3-DP's independent public
accountants, in connection with the issuance of Andersen's audit report included
in 3-DP's Annual Report on this Form 10-K.  In its letter, Andersen has
represented to 3-DP that its audit of the consolidated financial statements of
3-DP referenced in its audit report was subject to Andersen's quality control
system for the U.S. accounting and auditing practice to provide reasonable
assurance that the engagement was conducted in compliance with professional
standards and that there was appropriate continuity of Andersen personnel
working on the audit and availability of national office consultation.
Availability of personnel at foreign affiliates of Andersen was not relevant to
Andersen's audit.
