Drinking Water State Revolving Fund Proposed Priority System, Intended Use Plan, and Project Priority List, Federal Fiscal Year 2003
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2001

description: The Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) Amendments of 1996 authorized a Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF) to assist publicly owned and privately owned community water systems and nonprofit noncommunity water systems to finance the costs of infrastructure needed to achieve or maintain compliance with SDWA requirements and to protect the public health in conformance with the objectives of the SDWA.  The SDWA authorized a total of $9.6 billion nationally for the DWSRF through Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2003.  The DWSRF is administered as a component of the Environmental Infrastructure Financing Program (EIFP) which also administers the state?s Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF). Through leveraging by the EIFP (that is, the sale of revenue bonds, the proceeds of which are loaned to project sponsors), the State is able to provide low interest loans to far more projects than if leveraging was not done.    This document serves as the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection?s (NJDEP) DWSRF Priority System, Intended Use Plan (IUP) and Project Priority List and has several purposes regarding the use of anticipated federal funds, including: (1) the establishment of the ranking criteria under which DWSRF projects will be ranked and placed on the Priority List; (2) the establishment of program requirements and document submittal deadlines for award of DWSRF loans in State Fiscal Year (SFY) 2003 (i.e., November 2002) using FFY2002 federal capitalization grant funds and any remaining funds from previous federal capitalization grant funds; (3) the establishment of program requirements and document submittal deadlines for award of DWSRF loans in SFY2004 (i.e., November 2003) using FFY2003 federal capitalization grant funds and any remaining funds from previous federal capitalization grant funds; and (4) the establishment of the proposed uses of the set-asides using FFY2003 federal capitalization grant funds.

Opinion: This taxon does occur in the region but its true identity is unknown.
Justification:
Literature analysis: Thomson & Crane’s description included an illustration of the unbranched colony and one of a portion in close-up, both drawn in an artistic fashion. There are also 7 sclerite drawings. The thornscales are not of the Echinomuricea form but are more like those of Paramuricea or Placogorgia and are very long. The surface of the coenenchyme is described as being covered in long warty spindles and the material appears to be quite different from that originally identified as Echinomuricea uliginosa by Thomson and Simpson. Venkataraman et al. (2004) just lists the species.

Justification:

Literature analysis: Matsumoto & van Ofwgen (2016) who reviewed the genus Elasmogorgia listed Thomson & Simpson’s account (which was not illustrated) as representing a questionable synonym and offered no real opinion as to the material’s true identity. Because the Indian material was described as having calyces up to 1 mm tall with the sclerites sometimes arranged in 8 groups and polyps with a collaret and points arrangement, which are not characters of Elasmogorgia, it is possible it is a species of Astrogorgia. The specimens need to be re-examined.

http://lsid.speciesfile.org/urn:lsid: Orthoptera.speciesfile.org:TaxonName:14471
The genus Afrophisis was erected by Jin & Kevan (1991) on Teuthras carminator Bolivar (Fig. 14A, C, G). Four species are known of which three are distributed in West Africa and only one species, A. tanzanica, known from East Africa. A single male of A. tanzanica was collected by Nick Jago and described by Jin & Kevan (1991). More material was detected in the spirit collection of the zoological museum of Copenhagen. Material from a fogging project undertaken by McKamey et al. (1995) provides a comprehensive overview on the orthopteran canopy fauna of the East and West Usambara Mountains. Here the female of A. tanzanica is described and two new species, A. flagellata n. sp. and A. pseudoflagellata n. sp., from the forests of the East Usambara Mountains in Tanzania. Another two new species occur in the West Usambara Mountains and in coastal forest near Dar es Salaam of central Tanzania.
Most Tanzanian Afrophisis species are characterized by sclerotized, elongated structures arising from the internal genitalic system, produced between supra-anal and subgenital plate. Jin & Kevan (1991) refer to these structures as paraprocts. However, paraprocts are defined as lateral sclerites of the integument and not as parts of the genitalic system. Therefore in the species description in this study these structures which are very conspicuous elements characterizing the species A. tanzanica, A. flagellata n. sp., A. pseudoflagellata n. sp. and A. mazumbaiensis n. sp., are just referred to as sclerotized genitalic structures.

description: Genes that direct normal development are also involved in controlling cell division. Abnormalities in the regulation of these genes have been linked to breast cancer development. For example, the Wnt gene is required for normal development, but alterations in the amount of Wnt protein it makes are associated with abnormal proliferation in human breast tissue. In order to perform its function, Wnt turns on a series of other proteins in the cell. The interruption of any stage of this process could have an effect on the growth of cells. Another protein that is associated with breast cancer development, TGFb, can both regulate and be regulated by Wnt. An understanding of how these genes function to regulate cell division may elucidate how tumor cells proliferate and invade host tissues.

 In this project, I will analyze what occurs within cells in response to Wnt and TGFb. I will look at the effect on cellular proliferation when each protein of the series is blocked from being turned on. I will also examine how proteins turned on by Wnt block TGFb function, and how proteins turned on by TGFb block Wnt function. Understanding the interaction of Wnt and TGFb could conceivably permit the development of strategies for designing improved methods for breast cancer intervention and treatment.

Opinion: There is no evidence that this species occurs in the region.
Justification:
These Indian records seem to be either invalid or unconfirmable: Fernando 2011: 38, pl. 16, fig. 1–1d (Uvari); Fernando et al. 2017: 74, pl. 30, fig. 1–1e (Uvari).
Literature analysis: The accounts of Fernando (2011) and Fernando et al. (2017) are identical but it is difficult to assign a genus to their material without a more detailed description. The colony does not seem to match the characteristic form of Euplexaura, and neither do the illustrated sclerites, which include large, thick spindles and girdled spindles with a distinct waist, both of which can have ornamentation more developed on one side than the other, and also long, slender rather smooth polyp sclerites. The material is quite different from the Australian material described by Kükenthal in which the coenchymal sclerites are mostly oval forms about 0.12 mm long with a slight waist as compared to having slender spindles 0.16 mm long and ellipsoid spindles 1.4 mm long, and it quite possibly belongs to the genus Leptogorgia.

The Role of Meltrin-a in Breast Cancer-Associated Bone Loss

description: In advanced stages of breast cancer, there is spread to and involvement of the bone. This results in bone loss and an excess of circulating calcium (humoral hypercalcemia). Both bone loss and hypercalcemia are the result of physiological destruction of the bone by resident cells called osteoclasts, which are stimulated by breast carcinomas. New osteoclasts are formed as a result of cell fusion from previously mononuclear, precursor cells. This fusion event is regulated by a cell surface protein, meltrin-a, which may serve to attach two cells together in the initial phase of osteoclast formation. An additional component of this process is believed to be an integrin receptor, likely a vb 3, which in other situations allows cells to associate with the extracellular matrix. Given this level of information, there is obviously a lack of critical molecular information with which to develop a therapeutic approach to inhibit bone loss in breast cancer. In addition, our work could find application in another critical disease of importance to women, osteoporosis.

 We propose to first investigate the specific regions within the extracellular domains of the meltrin- a receptor. This involves two approaches: (i) introducing parts of the meltrin- a into cells that resemble osteoclasts to better identify their function, and (ii) preparing specific antibodies to parts of meltrin- a and using the antibodies to block functions of this protein. Our hypothesis is that meltrin- a has two functional domains, one for triggering the fusion of the plasma membranes of two adjacent precursor cells (cell fusion event), and another for an earlier phase of cell-cell interaction via the integrin, a vb 3. Thus, the second aim of our work is to identify the cell surface receptor of the meltrin- a, and then to describe their interaction. Our hope is that we can develop information regarding the interaction of the meltrin- a with its receptor for the purpose of developing an inhibitor having therapeutic applications. Our initial thought is that this new inhibitor could be peptide-based, if this receptor is related to the integrins.

 It is anticipated that the results from our study will provide the following advances relevant to bone wasting associated with breast cancer: (i) new basic science information on the critical molecular mechanism for the sequential steps in osteoclast precursor fusion, and (ii) initiate the process of identifying new lead compounds and applications to reduce bone loss.

Euplexaura amerea Grasshoff, 1999: 36–37, fig. 55–58 (New Caledonia).
Opinion: There is no evidence that this species occurs in the region.
Justification:
These Indian records seem to be either invalid or unconfirmable: Kumar et al. 2014a: 82, pl. 38, fig. A–D (Munak Gate); Fernando et al. 2017: 75, pl. 31, fig. A–D (Munak Gate).
Literature analysis: The accounts of Kumar et al. (2014a) and Fernando et al. (2017) are identical but it is impossible to know the true characteristics of their specimen as a large proportion of the text is taken word-forword from Grasshoff’s paper. However, neither the colony (which has an unusual shape) nor the sclerite figures match those of the holotype. The sclerites of the holotype are described and figured as small, blunt ellipsoids, almost spherical in shape, relatively uniform in size and with small tubercles. The text of Kumar et al. (2014a) and Fernando et al. (2017) duplicates this but the figured sclerites are quite different, and they are stated to be up to twice the size. Also, the polyp sclerites bear no resemblance to those of the holotype, particularly the collaret sclerite at the base of the pair of point sclerites in the latter.

Bach no se sabe ciega y sustancialmente atado a ninguno de esos procedimientos (lenguaje o idi- oma conjugado a la forma y gusto), sino que elige cada vez aquel que más exactamente se adapta a la intención compositora.1

Roberto Ruiz Guadalajara nos comenta:

Si hay una intención interpretativa que vaya más allá de la simple ejecución, el buen uso del pedal sirve para realizarla de manera más efectiva. Aún más, un uso técnicamente correcto del pedal no necesariamente implica una postura interpretativa, y mucho menos que la interpretación se apegue a las intenciones del compositor.2

description: Euplexaura koothankuliensis Fernando, 2011 (species status uncertain)
Euplexaura koothankuliensis Fernando, 2011: 38–39, pl. 16, fig. 2–2f (Koothankuli); Fernando et al. 2017: 77, pl. 31, fig. A–D (Koothankuli).
Opinion: This species does occur in the region but its true generic identity is unknown.
Justification:
Literature analysis: The accounts of Fernando (2011) and Fernando et al. (2017) are identical, but without detailed descriptions and more images of the sclerites it is not possible to tell what genus their material belongs in. From the small description and the images, it does not appear to represent a species of Euplexaura. Considering the colony form and the sclerites, which seem to include large thick spindles with tubercles in girdles that can have the ornamentation more developed on one side than the other, the specimen appears to be related to the genus Leptogorgia.

description: Innovative treatments for breast cancer are desperately needed because the current mortality rate of this disease in California is the second highest of all female cancers and has not decreased significantly, especially among minority groups, during the last 10 years. In this project, we will explore a new type of anti-tumor agent, which possesses the inhibitory effect on growth of both the blood vessel and tumor cells. In order for a cancerous tumor to proliferate and disseminate, it must first coax a blood supply to grow towards it, a process that is known as tumor angiogenesis. Angiogenesis is a complex sequence of events leading to the formation of new blood vessels from pre-existing blood vessels. Any substance that can act on and inhibit this process is considered anti-angiogenic and potentially inhibitory for solid tumor growth. Breast cancer is an angiogenesis-dependent disease, making the development of angiogenic inhibitors a very promising approach to the treatment of this disease. Our laboratory has demonstrated that a mycoplasma protein, arginine deiminase, can inhibit angiogenesis in several anti-angiogenesis assay systems. In addition, our preliminary studies and those in others laboratories indicate that this protein is effective in inhibiting tumor cell growth both in cell culture systems and in animal models. We hypothesize that the depletion of extracellular arginine by using arginine deiminase will alter the intracellular signals of growth regulation, especially the arginine-dependent synthesis of nitric oxide and polyamines. The decrease of angiogenesis in solid tumors may be a consequence of a change in the regulatory signal balance. In addition, this alteration of regulatory signals may also have a direct inhibitory effect on the proliferation of tumor cells. Recently, we have successfully cloned and produced this protein from mycoplasma genes by using a recombinant DNA technique. Our goal in this application is to establish our hypothesis that this recombinant protein possesses both and angiogenic and and-proliferative activities against breast cancer. To our knowledge, this type of therapeutic agent with a dual action has not been investigated before. Our long-term goal is to develop this recombinant protein into a unique anti-tumor agent for breast cancer treatment.

http://lsid.speciesfile.org/urn:lsid: Orthoptera.speciesfile.org:TaxonName:180010
Holotype male, Tanzania, West Usambara Mountains, Mazumbai forest reserve, 4° 49´S 38° 31´E, 1370 – 1435 m, November 1995, leg. McKamey et al. Depository: ZMUC.
Description.—Male. General habitus and colour as other Afrophisis species, probably green in life with faint reddish fasciae on pronotum and stridulatory file. Body medium sized, comparatively robust. Head and antennae.— Fastigium verticis short, faintly sulcate, conical, much shorter than scapus. Antennae very long and thin. Thorax.— Pronotum with pair of reddish-brown fasciae; median transverse sulci well developed, especially first sulcus deep; anterior and posterior margins of pronotum almost straight. Prosternum not visible, mesosternum with blunt pair of processes, metasternum unarmed. Tegmina and wings well developed, surpassing apex of abdomen about half of their length. Stridulatory area of male as in Fig. 15 D; Legs.— Fore coxa with spine. Fore legs with 4 inner and 3 outer long predatory spines on femur and 7 inner and 7 outer on tibia, mid femora with three short outer spines and one short spine on inner side. Hind femora unarmed at base where femur is inflated, few spines at posterior part ventrally. Hind tibiae with 4 rows of numerous small spines along whole length. Abdomen.— Supra-anal plate elongate and raised backwards as in A. tanzanica but shorter and stouter. Elongated sclerotized genitalic structures with knobs dorsally at base, below a median elongation is present with a median keel which produces two acute parallel processes at its end (Fig. 15 E). Cerci thick, finger-like, at midlength strongly bend, curving ventrad and thus pointing anteriorly. Subgenital plate broad at base, deeply incised forming two acute processes with minute styli at tips (Fig. 15 I).
Female.—Unknown
Measurements, male- (mm) (N = 1). Body length 11.5. Length of pronotum 3.5. Length of elytra 13. Length of hind femur 10.
Diagnosis.— A. mazumbaiensis n. sp. resembles A. tanzanica in the shape of the elongated supra-anal plate. However, the supra-anal plate is stouter and the sclerotized genitalic structures differently shaped than in A. tanzanica. Both species are morphological sister pairs occurring on adjacent mountain ranges.
Distribution: Mazumbai forest reserve in the West Usambara Mountains.
Habitat: Submontane to montane forest.

Opinion: There is no evidence that this species occurs in this region.
Justification:
These Indian records seem to be either invalid or unconfirmable: Kumar et al. 2014a: 84, pl. 39, fig. A–E (Guitor Island); Fernando et al. 2017: 78, pl. 33, fig. A–E (Guitor Island)
Literature analysis: The accounts given by Kumar et al. (2014a) and Fernando et al. (2017) are identical but it is impossible to know the true characteristics of their specimen as most of the description is taken word-for-word from Grasshoff (1999), even the exact size of the sclerites. This has led to their somewhat bushy colony with just a few irregularly branches being described as a fan, bent to one side, with some anastomoses in the older parts. Both the colony and the sclerites bear little or no resemblance to those figured by Studer whose specimen came from the Banda Sea in Indonesia. Grasshoff included Acis alba Thomson & Henderson as a synonym of E. rhipidalis but that species appears to be quite different with a pave-work of large, irregular shaped plates on the surface and forming low calyces.

description: A critical problem in treating breast cancer is the lack of effective therapeutics directed against estrogen-independent forms of the disease, which respond less favorably to the anti-estrogens (e.g., tamoxifen). In addition, there has been less research aimed at the identification of active ingredients and molecular mechanism of action for dietary components in breast cancer prevention and treatment.

 Our interest is focused on a compound called indole-3-carbinol (I3C), which is found in Brassica-type vegetables (e.g., cabbage, broccoli, and Brussels sprouts). When ingested, dietary I3C has been shown to be converted into several natural acid-catalyzed products that have multiple anti-tumor bioactivities. First, using both estrogen responsive and nonresponsive human breast tumor cell lines, we have discovered that I3C activates a novel anti-proliferative pathway that is independent of the estrogen receptor. The net effect is to inhibit the cell cycle, through a loss of cell expression of CDK6 (cyclin-dependent kinase 6) and a reduction in activity of another cell cycle protein, CDK2. This pathway prevents the breast cancer cell from dividing by blocking its passage through the cell cycle. Secondly, we have found that a combination of I3C and tamoxifen will synergistically block the growth of estrogen-responsive breast cancer cells.

 The next step is to refine our understanding of how I3C works in the various hormone states in breast cancer, and to approach this problem with the aim of developing these natural compounds into chemotherapeutic and chemopreventative drugs. The specific aims of this project are to (1) generate and characterize new classes of structurally related I3C with improved potency; (2) identify the I3C derivatives that more effectively induce a cell cycle arrest, inhibit CDK6 gene expression and CDK2 activity, especially in estrogen-independent cancer; and (3) study our novel compounds in cellular and animal models of growth and tumor formation. Our project is unique in that it combines laboratory research on breast tumor biology and mechanisms with drug development and toxicology expertise of our collaborators.

 Much interest is currently given to the use of the anti-estrogen, tamoxifen, as a chemopreventative agent for high-risk groups of women. However, this approach is severely limited in potential by the issues of both acquired drug resistance and the fact that a substantial percentage (up to 40%) of breast cancers are estrogen-independent in nature. Given the limited information about the role of indole-type compounds produced in vegetables in the treatment breast cancer, our study will provide the necessary first experimental information needed for the development of novel chemotherapeutic, or perhaps chemopreventative, strategies that effectively utilize potent derivatives of I3C.

Psammogorgia ridleyi Thomson & Simpson, 1909: 263–264, pl. 2, fig. 5; pl. 9, fig. 10a, 10b (Andamans).
Opinion: This species does occur in the region but it was originally misidentified.
Justification:
Literature analysis: Thomson & Simpson (1909) named this species Psammogorgia ridleyi but their description is inadequate to determine what genus their specimen represents. Because the figure of the branch fragment shows the polyps are retracted, the surface completely flat, and the coenenchymal sclerites predominantly short, somewhat broad spindles, it seems more likely the species is a Euplexaura. The genus Psammogorgia occurs off the west coast of the Americas and is not found in the broader Indo-Pacific. Kükenthal (1924) included the species as uncertain and Rao & Devi (2003) just listed the species.

Opinion: This species does occur in the region but its true identity is unknown.
Justification:
These Indian records seem to be either invalid or unconfirmable: Fernando 2011: 39–40, pl. 17, fig. 1–1e (Uvari); Fernando et al. 2017: 80, pl. 34, fig. 1–1e (Uvari).
Literature analysis:
This species was originally described from Sri Lanka as Plexaura antipathes var. flexuosa. Kükenthal (1924) gave the taxon a new name and suggested it belonged in the genus Euplexaura even though the sclerites had been described as “branched rod-like needles and small spherical bodies”. Because Thomson & Henderson (1905) gave no illustrations the species is unrecognisable. The girdled sclerites figured by Fernando (2011) and Fernando et al. (2017) indicate their samples may represent a species of Leptogorgia.

description: Cédric Hanriot ist in Pont-à-Mousson einer Kleinstadt im französischen Département "Meurthe et Moselle" geboren. Der Pianist ist schon lange im Geschäft und feiert 2023 sein fünfundzwanzigjähriges Bühnenjubiläum. Während der Tübinger Jazz- und Klassiktage präsentierte er am 20. Oktober 2021 mit seinem Trio eine Musik, die offen ist für die verschiedenen Strömungen von Jazz, Pop und Groove. Wir erkennen Themen und Melodien aus dem Pop von Katy Perry, dem Rock von Nirvana, der elektronischen Musik von Massive Attack, aber auch eine Reihe populärer französischer Chansons. Das Trio spielte aber auch eine Reihe von eigenen Songs. Immer stehen dabei der Rhythmus und die Interaktion in den Improvisationen im Zentrum. Cédric Hanriot hat bereits viele Auszeichnungen bekommen, drunter zum Beispiel 2015 den Grammy für das beste Jazz-Vokal-Album 2015 zusammen mit Dianne Reeves. Und Cédric Hanriot war im Juli und August 2022 schon mal bei uns zu Gast und zwar als Teil des Michel Meis 4tet.
