Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia of the mouth: report of six cases and literature review.
Oral intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH) is an uncommon, reactive vascular lesion with no specific clinical features. Microscopically two subtypes have been described: a pure and a mixed form. The importance of IPEH is in its resemblance to angiosarcoma. The aim of this study was to evaluate both the prevalence of IPEH in a consecutive series of oral vascular malformations and the clinico-pathological features. Histological sections of 103 consecutive cases filed as vascular malformations were reviewed for histopathological criteria of IPEH. We found six cases of oral IPEH, of which three were diagnosed previously. Five of these cases were in males, and the mean age was 58 years. It was usually described as a blueor reddish nodule. The lower lip mucosa was the most common site followed by the tongue and the upper lip. Histologically, thrombi were always present and five out of the six lesions appeared in a mixed form, while only one was in a pure form. Three cases were diagnosed at an early stage and in the other three, the lesions were well-established. In this series, IPEH associated with vascular malformation was more common than reported in previous studies. Lesions at early stages, especially in the mixed form, may be unnoticed.

ON A BUDGET: Snoop Dog chose to stay at a Holiday Inn Express hotel after a show in Devon

HE RAPS about his extravagant lifestyle – but millionaire hip-hop star Snoop Dogg decided to ditch the luxuries by staying at a Holiday Inn Express hotel after a show in Devon, last weekend.

The US rapper, also known as Snoop Lion, stayed at the low-priced hotel in Sowton, Exeter after his exclusive DJ set at the Timepiece nightclub on Saturday (August 9).

The 42-year-old and his entourage checked out at 3pm on Sunday (August 10) after chatting with staff and customers and having his photo taken.

According to the Mail Online, Snoop was paid around £22,000 for the two-hour gig at Timepiece which had a 400-strong sell-out


crowd.

The star requested Hennessey champagne and Grey Goose vodka upon his arrival at the club.

Snoop Dogg is thought to have been offered substantially more cash to play at other venues, including one on the island of Jersey, but he honoured his commitment to Exeter.

Owner of Timepiece nightclub, George Sloane, said: “When he agreed, I thought he must have got us mixed up with another club.

“But they had done all their research and knew it was used to be an old church, had seen the pictures of the old gravestones, knew it was a small club and apparently Snoop was really excited about an intimate evening.”

At around 3am, Snoop and his staff were driven from Newquay to Exeter by taxi driver, Nathan Guscott.

Guscott said: “When we collected him andThe present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Heliotropium, botanically known as Heliotropium arborescens, and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘KLEHA07520’. ‘KLEHA07520’ was discovered as a seedling resulting from a cross in summer 2003 in Stuttgart, Germany between the proprietary female Heliotropium parent, ‘V 018’ (unpatented) and the male parent, an unnamed typical individual plant of Heliotropium (unpatented). A single plant selection was subsequently chosen for further evaluation and for asexual propagation.
The new cultivar was created in 2003 in Stuttgart, Germany and has been asexually reproduced repeatedly by vegetative cuttings in Stuttgart, Germany over a three and one-half-year period. ‘KLEHA07520’ has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics through successive asexual propagations.

SMITHLAND, KY - Traffic on the US 60 Cumberland River Bridge at Smithland in Livingston County was halted briefly on Monday due to a barge hit.

According to the US Coast Guard, the Motor Vessel Bill Atkinson was heading downstream on the Cumberland River with fifteen barges when it rubbed against a pier on the bridge. The Coast Guard contacted the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet to halt traffic and conduct an inspection.

Travel was suspended on the bridge for about 90 minutes until the inspection was completed, which found no damage to the bridge structure.Nova Scotia is among the worst in the country when it comes to food security, according to Mount Saint Vincent University's Canada research chair in food security.

"The trends are really concerning and are quite serious," said Patty Williams. "In Nova Scotia, we're seeing increases in the prevalence of food insecurity since 2005.

"Nova Scotia has one of the highest rates in the country. Only Nunavut was higher."

Four million people in Canada struggle daily to provide food for themselves, said Williams.

That's because food prices are continuing to rise and it's having a dramatic impact on the quality and quantity of food that goes on the plates of people across the country.

Hundreds of protesters attacked the boundary wall of the Army’s 62 Rashtriya Rifles camp in Chodergund area of Shopian district. Aerial firing forced the protesters to leave the area.

Yet the use of nuclear power has been stagnant or even contracting.

Nuclear power presses a number of psychological buttons — fear of poisoning, ease of imagining catastrophes, distrust of the unfamiliar and the man-made — and so is held to an irrationally higher standard than fossils. When a coal mine disaster kills dozens, or a deep-water oil leak despoils vast seas, nobody shuts down the coal or oil industries. Yet the 2011 Fukushima nuclear plant accident in Japan, which killed nobody, led Germany to shut down its nuclear plants and quietly replace them with dirty coal.

On June 3, 1978, Mike “The Bike” Hailwood made a fairy tale return to racing when he rode to victory at record speed in the Isle of Man Formula 1 TT aboard his Sports Motorcycles Ducati 900 V-twin.

Much has been written about the fantastic final lap, which saw Smart and Spaggiari side by side almost all the way to the finishing line, but how this race changed the destiny of the Italian manufacturer has been relatively unexplored.

The win at Imola defined Ducati’s future approach to racing, with the manufacturer focusing its attention almost exclusively on production-derived machines.

On April 21, Gov. Kim Reynolds announced that the state of Iowa was Nomi Health’s next partner. She signed a $26 million dollar contract with the company without considering other vendors. It was Ashton Kutcher who alerted her to the idea, she explained. She called him to ask him to help film a public service announcement to encourage Iowans to stay at home. Reynolds is only one of 12 governors who have refused to issue a stay-at-home order. And seven of those states have at least one city with a shelter-at-home order, Iowa has none. But, as the virus spread throughout the state with outbreaks


at food processing plants and long-term care facilities, Reynolds was quick to contact Kutcher to ask him for help.

Kutcher has attempted to help Iowa in the past. After the historic Iowa floods of 2008, Kutcher had the idea to start a nonprofit to help Iowans. Six years later, he partnered with former Hawkeye football star Dallas Clark to make that idea a reality. But even after a widely publicized concert headlined by Blake Shelton in 2015 and a Metallica concert in 2017, the nonprofit ended up paying twice as much in executive compensation to Kyle McCann, a former Hawkeye football player, than it did to actual charities. The fund was shut down in 2019 after a story I wrote revealed the discrepancy. Kutcher’s PR rep said he wasCERTIFICATE OF CORRECTNESS

While natural variability continues to play a large role in Australia’s climate, some long-term trends are apparent. The terrestrial climate has warmed by around 1℃ since 1910, with an accompanying increase in the duration, frequency and intensity of extreme heat events across large parts of Australia. There has been an increase in extreme fire weather, and a lengthening of the fire season in most fire-prone regions since the 1970s.

Observations also show that atmospheric circulation changes in the Southern Hemisphere have led to an average reduction in rainfall across parts of southern Australia.

Inparticular, May–July rainfall has reduced by around 19% since 1970 in the southwest of Australia. There has been a decline of around 11% since the mid-1990s in April–October rainfall in the continental southeast. Southeast Australia has had below-average rainfall in 16 of the April–October periods since 1997.

Australia’s oceans have also warmed, with sea surface temperature increases closely matching those experienced on land. This warming affects both the marine environment and Australia’s terrestrial climate, due to the large influence of surrounding oceans on our weather systems. Sea levels have risen around Australia, which has the potential to amplify the effects of high tides and storm surges.

Johnson testified that he had never read the warning even though he knew it was on the press and had glanced at it.  The district court further found that Johnson's unsuccessful attempt to knock the material out of the press, contrary to the instructions on the warning plate, did not support an inference that he had in fact read the warning plate.  As noted by the district court, an issue as to the adequacy of a warning necessarily presupposes that the operator has read the warning.

VW chooses Ross to compete in Scirocco R-Cup

After a sensational maiden season in the Celtic Speed Mini Cooper Cup, Ross has been invited by Volkswagen to race in its hugely popular one-make series.

The 21-year old former karting champion made a huge impact on his debut at Knockhill, taking a podium in his first ever race and concluding the season with a brace of victories. This quick success prompted the Scot to consider a switch to the British Porsche Carrera Cup – but a chance meeting with Porsche Scholarship winner Daniel Lloyd led Wylie to turn his focus to Germany.

Many of the Trump-supporting onlookers also realized Obama and the former first lady unfortunately weren’t leaving permanently, merely relocating their residence a few short blocks away from the White House.

The Melbourne Asthma Study: 1964-1999.
A group of children with a past history of wheezing was randomly selected from the Melbourne community at the age of 7 years in 1964, and a further group of children with severe wheezing was selected from the same birth cohort at the age of 10 years. These subjects have been followed prospectively at 7-year intervals, with the last review in 1999, when their average age was 42 years. Eighty-seven percent of the original cohort who were still alive participated in the 1999 review. This study showed that the majority of children who had only a few episodes of wheezing associated with symptoms of a respiratory infection had a benign course, with many ceasing to wheeze by adult life. Most who continued with symptomsinto adult life were little troubled by them. Conversely, those children with asthma mostly continued with significant wheezing into adult life, and the more troubled they were in childhood, the more likely symptoms continued. There was a loss in lung function by the age of 14 years in those with severe asthma, but the loss did not progress in adult life. The childhood asthma had been treated before the availability of inhaled steroids. There was no significant loss of lung function in those with milder symptoms.

After the district court1 denied Karen Elaine Cash's motion to suppress evidence seized from her residence, she conditionally pleaded guilty to possessing methamphetamine with intent to distribute, reserving the right to appeal the denial of her suppression motion. The district court sentenced her to seventy-two months in prison andfour years of supervised release.

After an evidentiary hearing, the district court found the following facts to be true. On November 29, 2001, an unidentified caller telephoned the Des Moines Police Department and spoke to Officer Mike McBride. The caller reported that he had just picked up his child from 2765 NE 52nd Court, the residence of his child's babysitter, a woman named Karen. The caller advised that while in Karen's residence, he had seen a brick of white powder and a brick of what he believed to be marijuana. According to the caller, when he confronted her about the alleged drugs, Karen said


he and the other officers monitored Cash as she located a copy of the document purportedly recalling the warrant, unsuccessfully attempted to contact her attorney, and made arrangements for someone to take care of her five-year-old daughter, who was present at the residence. Edwards saw Cash move a shopping bag behind the kitchen island so that it would be out of the officers' line of sight. Edwards noted that Cash was extremely nervous and continually interrupted herself when speaking to the officers.

After the officers had been at Cash's residence for about ten minutes, Funaro's dispatcher reconfirmed the validity of the arrest warrant. Funaro therefore disregarded the document Cash had proffered and told her that she would be taken into custody. Edwards then made a protective sweep of theresidence. Based on his training and experience, he was concerned that because Cash was allegedly involved with large amounts of drugs, there could be someone else present at the residence who could pose a danger to the officers as they attempted to take her into custody.

5
Edwards walked through the residence's three bedrooms, laundry/utility room, living room, and kitchen. In plain view atop the kitchen island, Edwards saw what he believed to be marijuana, marijuana seeds, and marijuana stems. He asked Cash about this material, and she denied that it was marijuana. Edwards then retrieved a field-test kit from his car and returned to the kitchen island to test the material, which tested positive as marijuana. While conducting the field test, Edwards looked down toward his feet and saw

EVANSVILLE, Ind. — Video of a southwest Indiana police officer fatally shooting a man holding a hammer appears to back an officer's claim he believed the man reached for a gun, authorities said Wednesday.

Terry W. Chanley of Wadesville was killed by the Evansville police officer Monday following a traffic accident.

The department released body-cam video Wednesday that shows the unidentified officer approach the 45-year-old Chanley and ask for his license and registration. When Chanley didn't respond, the officer asked him to show his hands. Chanley briefly complied before reaching for something on the other side of the car.

The video shows the officer backing away from the vehicle as Chanley climbs out and head toward the officer before shots are fired. After the shooting, the officer said Chanley washolding a black object the officer thought was a gun. Police released a picture showing a black hammer laying on the ground.

"At the beginning it was just like any other crash investigation," said Sgt. Jason Cullum, the police spokesman. "We don't know why he (Chanley) acted as he did. The officer took actions as he was trained to do."

Cullum noted that after the officer fired the first shot, Chanley continued to follow the path of the officer as he backed up, indicating his actions were intentional.

The Vanderburgh County coroner's office says Chanley died from a single gunshot to the chest.

The name of the officer involved in the shooting hasn't been released. Cullum says the officer remains on paid leave, adding he is also meeting with a mental health

The Joy of Star Trek vanity press books

I have no idea how many Star Trek-related vanity press books have been published over the years, though I've bought a number of them. The Internet makes it easier to track their existence, especially since some of the bigger companies have started selling through Amazon.

Whatever else this is, it isn't a reference guide. Instead, it's a random mishmash. Reprinted online posts about Star Trek movies, a few pages of quotes from episodes, one of those clueless Trekkie or Trekker comparisons, more than 40 pages of Star Trek poetry and monologues, a nun's comparison of Spock's experience with Jesus's that originally appeared in Best of Trek 11 back in 1986, not that that's mentioned here...this is just deeply weird. On one page, there's a poem in two columns. On the left, it's called "Spock ce mortuus," on the right "Spock is dead." It's the same poem, but the one on the right is in English, the one on the left in a strange combination of Latin and French.

This is not a reference book in any useful way; it's not useful as a guide for new Star Trek fans because it almost completely ignores everything that came after Star Trek: The Next Generation; and it reproduces material first published elsewhere without properly attributing it. Not recommended.

And the Scotty book:

Like its predecessor, A Tribute to Spock: A Reference Guide, this vanity press publication is an odd mishmash of stuff, including a reappearance of some


"cutting edge" in print SF has never been translated to film or TV, sometimes because it wouldn't have the kind of mass appeal necessary for the larger audience TV and movies demand, sometimes because the story just doesn't lend itself to the medium.

A number of people would probably faint if they read the following, like Brian Aldiss, author of Trillion Year Spree with David Wingrove. It's probably the best history of the genre available. Likewise Robert Scholes and Eric Rabkin, writers/editors of Science Fiction: History, Science, Vision, which was one of the texts in the SF course I took in my English major days. I'm going to give a ridiculously simplified set of generalizations and call it a history of science fiction. It will ignore all kinds of1940s and early 1950s appeared in Astounding.

A.E. van Vogt's Voyage of the Space Beagle, cited by some as an influence on Star Trek, originally appeared as short stories in magazines, the first, "Black Destroyer," being published in Astounding in 1939. The stories describe the adventures of the crew of the Space Beagle, a starship exploring strange new worlds. In 1950, when it was first collected and published in book form, it would already have struck some readers as old-fashioned.

In the 1950s, with most of the old pulps dead and gone but Astounding still going, a couple of new magazines appeared. The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction is generally thought of as the more literary, less genre-bound magazine. Galaxy was more strictly SF but ran to social satire


and humour. Astounding's best writers, Asimov, Heinlein, Clarke, et al., were moving into book form and developing beyond Campbell's limits, while writers like Frederik Pohl and C.M. Kornbluth used satire to take on advertising, law, and other aspects of modern life. Science fiction started drawing on psychology and sociology instead of just the hard sciences and engineering. Distinctive new voices like Cordwainer Smith and Alfred Bester took some of the stuff of space opera and turned it into exotic new forms.

As with culture in general, the 1960s brought a lot of new developments. The move to literary experimentation and social commentary intensified and developed into something of a movement, the New Wave. This time around, women and British writers were strongly involved. Some of the results of thatexperimentation would have been almost unrecognizable as science fiction to fans of the old 1930s pulps. See, for example, Brian Aldiss's Barefoot in the Head, published in 1969, and presenting the perspective of a character in a world where everyone's hallucinating and unable to think normally. Or Joanna Russ's 1970 novel And Chaos Died, which not only deals with homosexuality but tries to depict telepathy from the telepath's perspective. The New Wave didn't sell a hell of a lot of books; there were still a lot of writers doing more conventional SF, but the New Wave's influence rippled through the decades.

One of the writers whose career kicked into high gear in the 1960s was Frank Herbert. Astounding had by then become Analog, and it was there his first


Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine, which had begun publishing as a quarterly in 1976, went to monthly publication before long, and became one of the most important breeding grounds for new SF writers in the next couple of decades. Established writers like Asimov, Clarke, Herbert, and Heinlein started showing up regularly in bestseller lists, while younger writers like Joe Haldeman and John Varley made names for themselves with bold and innovative work that was still readable and entertaining.

By the 1980s, there was no shortage of any kind of science fiction or fantasy. There was right wing militarist stuff, satire, sense of wonder stuff... but in 1984 the big trend of the decade appeared. The information technology revolution had begun a few years earlier, real life was starting tolook more like science fiction, and William Gibson's Neuromancer captured and projected the zeitgeist, and a lot of SF afterwards seemed like an attempt to ride its wave or reject it completely. Asimov's SF Magazine ran an article by Michael Swanwick, "A User's Guide to the Postmoderns," which divided the current crop of new writers into the cyberpunk and literary humanist camps, the most famous of the latter being probably Kim Stanley Robinson. The idea was that, on the one hand, there were writers fascinated by technology, punk and other subcultures, crime fiction, squalor, and the dark side of life in general, and on the other were more literary writers more concerned with the human condition than the machine condition. Of course, a lot of the writers mentioned


us Blade Runner, Brazil, and Max Headroom, which presaged and/or paralleled cyberpunk in a number of ways.

More recently, SF has been absorbing influences from here, there, and everywhere, and feeding them back into the culture. Space opera has been brought back in a newer, more cynical, form by writers like Iain M. Banks. New scientific developments have inspired some wild speculations from the likes of Greg Egan, even as the world seems more and more like science fiction, thanks to the ubiquity of personal computers, cellphones, the Internet, terrorism... and while American SF TV continues to refine space opera through Star Trek spinoffs, Babylon 5, Stargate, Andromeda, Farscape, etc, Japanese anime takes cyberpunk a few steps farther along in movies and series like Ghost in the Shell andSerial Experiments: Lain.

So, as to the concept of cutting edge: Star Trek was in some respects cutting edge as SF on TV a few times. It pioneered the space opera as an adult form of television entertainment, it pioneered the use of syndication for hourlong drama series, but it's generally been pretty conventional and mainstream in its storytelling, and well behind even sitcoms in its willingness to deal with controversial subjects. Compared to Farscape or a lot of anime series, it looks old-fashioned on screen, even with its high quality special effects.

Now let's consider Star Trek books. In a number of ways the books are ahead of the TV series. Some of them have done a much better job of using ensemble storytelling than most of the Trek


the reference to Odan-style Trill. Bajor was darn near pastoral by comparison, despite the fact that it had some violence and darkness, but fortunately Jake's storyline was a source of humour and romance in what may perhaps be a bit too dark and depressing a series lately. The story unifies a lot of the different (sometimes bizarrely different) views of Bajor we got in DS9's early seasons, pulling everything together neatly. Ferenginar... well, as much as I like KRAD's stuff, the Ferengi episodes are not my favourite part of the DS9 tapestry. Names like Brunt and Zek do not fill me with anticipation. Fortunately, Ro Laren comes along for the ride. She was one of my favourite characters on TNG, which never really made the most of her,unhelpful words, "This sucks." Sorry.

After Spirit Walk I had to clean out my mind with some very different reading material. So I turned to a couple of old favourites.

Back in the mid-1980s, there was a small publisher called Black Lizard. They brought back into print a number of grim and depressing crime novels, reprinting old pulp stories and old paperback originals. Some of the authors were still reasonably well-known; others were all but forgotten. I'd heard of a few and read a couple but quickly learned that darn near anything published under that original Black Lizard imprint was going to be worth reading. (Black Lizard was later taken over by Random House's Vintage imprint and used for reprints of more well-known and respectable crime fiction and mysteries, while


the bulk of the original Black Lizard lineup was abandoned.) One of my favourite discoveries was David Goodis.

Goodis was, briefly, respectable, well-known, well-paid. One of his early novels, Dark Passage, became a Humphrey Bogart/Lauren Bacall film. But he ended up writing a lot of novels of squalor, despair, crime, and doomed love as paperback originals, and several of those were reprinted by Black Lizard. Nightfall was probably my first. I was already a fan of Cornell Woolrich, the noir novelist whose stories of love, murder, and despair were more romantic and sometimes even had happy endings; quite a few of Woolrich's stories have been filmed. Goodis had all the darkness and precious little of the light. His prose was also leaner; Woolrich could get a little purple atthe hat. Jane Austen is a personal friend of Hoare's love interest. Hoare encounters Horatio Hornblower once or twice and remembers Jack Aubrey's "lesser of two weevils" joke. There's a spy named Ambler (no doubt named after Eric Ambler, writer of spy novels), an investigator named Lestrade (an ancestor of Holmes's foil from Scotland Yard, perhaps?), and others, including, I strongly suspect, a considerable number that have gone over my head. Ordinarily this sort of thing, done too much, ticks me off, but the overarching mystery story and the character development have enough seriousness and depth to balance the frivolity.

the richest people in the U.S. became richer in the years between 2003 and 2012, while the middle class got poorer, creating a huge disparity between the .001-percenters who earned at least $62 million, the one-percenters who were making $435,000 or more, and workers paying federal income taxes on earnings as low as $36,055.

The key difference between Ecuador and the U.S. is not the distribution of wealth—in both countries, very small groups of people control most of the wealth. Instead, what makes Ecuador different is that its president is leading the charge to change the tax system as part of a wider plan to implement Article three of the new Ecuadorean Constitution, which reads, “The primary duties of the state are planning national development and eradicating poverty, promotingthat prosecution under the amended statute constituted an ex post facto application of that law.

US veterinary surgeons operating on a sick dog got a shock when they discovered the cause of their patient's malaise - 43 and a half socks.

The 64kg Great Dane had an affinity for chewing socks but no-one knew he was swallowing them whole, a spokeswoman from the animal hospital said.

The vets, who operated on the dog in February, said that it was the most socks they had pulled out of an animal.

Mars Science Laboratory Mission Status ReportPASADENA, Calif. - NASA's Mars rover Curiosity has resumed science investigations after recovery from a computer glitch that prompted the engineers to switch the rover to a redundant main computer on Feb. 28.

The rover has been monitoring the weather since March 21 and delivered a new portion of powdered-rock sample for laboratory analysis on March 23, among other activities.

"We are back to full science operations," said Curiosity Deputy Project Manager Jim Erickson of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif.

The powder delivered on Saturday came from the rover's first full drilling into a rock to collect a sample. The new portion went into the Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) instrument inside the rover, which began analyzing this material and had previously analyzed other portionsChabahar Port: A Win for South Asia

When Afghanistan’s Chief Executive Officer Abdullah Abdullah visited Iran on Jan. 4, one of the top items on his agenda was the finalizing of the Chabahar Transit and Transport Agreement. The core aim for the creation of this agreement is to expand regional trade between India, Iran, and Afghanistan. Abdullah hoped to build on the momentum of December 2015, when Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi reiterated his commitment to improve connectivity between India and Afghanistan through Chabahar port. Located about 45 miles west of Pakistan’s Gwadar port, in Iran, it holds strategic significance for India, as it gives it direct access to Afghanistan and Central Asian countries, bypassing Pakistan. According to the Afghan Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Chabahar agreement will be


finalized in an upcoming trilateral meeting in New Delhi.

Economists project that Central and South Asia will become the new global center of economic growth and activity in the next decade. Given its location, Afghanistan can play a substantial role in these rising regional prospects. Recently, Afghanistan has made major advances in terms of security and political reforms. It is looking to make similar efforts on the economic front. In addition to the two large energy projects — the Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India Natural Gas Pipeline (TAPI) Project and the Central Asia South Asia Electricity Transmission and Trade Project (CASA—1000) — Afghanistan has also invested in transport infrastructure projects like the development of Chabahar port.

India has historically enjoyed good relations with Afghanistan. But because they do not share a border, their physicaldetachment presents a logistical dilemma. Since 2001, India has taken on a number of sizable infrastructure projects in its development assistance program in Afghanistan. One of these projects is the Zaranj-Delaram Highway, a 135 mile long highway that connects Zaranj in Nimruz province, near the Iranian border, with Delaram in neighboring Farah province, and the Afghan-Iranian border with Kandahar-Herat highway in Delaram. The construction of the Zaranj-Delaram highway connects the Chabahar port on the Gulf of Oman to the 1,300-mile Afghanistan Ring Road. It connects 16 of country’s 34 provinces, stretching from Herat, Mazar-i-Sharif, Kabul, Ghazni, and Kandahar and to Tajikistan’s Gorno-Badakhshan province. The highway creates North-South transport corridors linking the Indian sub-continent and the land-locked Central Asia. The new infrastructure enables Afghanistan to access the Arabian Sea


feet of gas reserves. It also allows India access to the added energy resources in Central Asia, where Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan possess 30 billion barrels of oil and 265 trillion cubic feet gas reserves, respectively, and Kazakhstan holds 679,300 tons of uranium and more than 37,000 million short tons of recoverable coal reserves.

In addition to India’s access to Iran and Central Asia’s oil and gas reserves, the Chabahar port will help India to meet its maximum trade potential with Central Asian countries. Currently, India lags far behind major regional players such as China, Russia, and Turkey in trading volumes with Central Asia strictly because of access limitations. For example, India’s trade with Kazakhstan, its largest Central Asian bilateral trading partner, was worth $952 million in 2014 and 2015,of geopolitical implications. The corridor will displease both Islamabad and Beijing, as Pakistan has historically worried about India’s influence in Afghanistan. The Chabahar port project will compete directly with China’s Gwadar port in Pakistan. As India is building up Chabahar to open up new trade routes through Iran and Afghanistan, China is building up Gwadar to open up trade routes through Pakistan and northward back to China. There is still the risk that the port will become a source of rivalry between China and India.

If the development of the Chabahar port goes according to plan, the region will benefit from the creation of new trade routes stretching from the northern reaches of Central Asia down to Chabahar in southern Iran. The port will be a station for global


imports coming from the Gulf region, and a gateway to the Middle East and possibly Europe for exports coming from Afghanistan and Central Asia. The project will boost India and Afghanistan’s trade volume, India’s trade volume with Central Asia, and Afghanistan’s access to markets in India, Europe, the Middle East, and the world. China has already established a presence in Pakistan’s Gwadar to ensure its close proximity of the Gulf and Indian regions. The current regional institutions can play an important role in creating an environment of trust and close cooperation among regional players to prevent these two ports from becoming a center of rivalry.

Since 1984, the design of the hydraulic accumulator installed on all the affected Airbus types has changed. The Part Number (P/N) remained the same, but the manufacturer did not record the serial number of the part that was the first to be manufactured to the changed design specification.

The new design hydraulic accumulator is manufactured with 2 pieces unit welded, instead of 4 pieces unit with 3 welds (old design) as pictured in Appendix 1 of this [EASA] AD. The welding process of the new design hydraulic accumulator provides a


contact between wire bundle W443 and the left forward rudder quadrant. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct contact between the wire bundle and the left forward rudder quadrant. Damage to the wire bundle from contact between the wire bundle and the left forward rudder quadrant could result in uncommanded stabilizer trim and autopilot disconnects due to shorted wires, potentially affecting the capability of the flightcrew during high work load and consequently reducing control of the airplane. Restricted movement of the rudder quadrant at full right rudder travel would reduce controllability of the airplane.

B. Paperwork Reduction Act

According to the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., an Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information that requires OMB approval under PRA, unless it has been approved by OMB and displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the Federal Register, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, and included on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. EPA is amending the table


amends 49 CFR 18.22(b) by replacing the citations to these former OMB circulars with the appropriate references in title 2 of the Code of Federal Regulations and would reflect these same changes in 49 CFR 19.27(b).

The rule also makes minor referencing revisions to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) cost principle circulars and, consistent with OMB materials, revises prohibitions on payment of profit or fee to grantees and subgrantees covered by 49 CFR part 19. The revised referencing is needed as the OMB cost circulars have been published in Title II of the Code of Federal Regulations since August 2005. However, these OMB circulars are only published as guidance (see 2 CFR 1.105(a)). Also, the OMB circular number has been retained in the title of each circular,designated 3,887,800 ac (ac) (1,573,340 hectares (ha)) as critical habitat for the marbled murrelet in Washington, Oregon, and California. We are revising the designated critical habitat for the marbled murrelet by removing approximately 189,671 ac (76,757 ha) in northern California and southern Oregon from the 1996 designation, based on new information indicating that these areas do not meet the definition of critical habitat. The areas being removed from the 1996 designation in northern California are within Inland Zone 2, where we have no historical or current survey records documenting marbled murrelet presence. Intensive surveys in southern Oregon indicate the inland distribution of the marbled murrelet is strongly associated with the hemlock/tanoak habitat zone, rather than distance from the coast. Accordingly, the areas being removed in southern Oregon are


Sound; south along the coast through the Alexander Archipelago of Alaska, British Columbia, Washington, and Oregon; to northern Monterey Bay in central California. Birds winter throughout the breeding range and occur in small numbers off southern California. Marbled murrelets spend most of their lives in the marine environment where they forage in near-shore areas and consume a diversity of prey species, including small fish and invertebrates. In their terrestrial environment, the presence of platforms (large branches or deformities) used for nesting in trees is the most important characteristic of their nesting habitat. Marbled murrelet habitat use during the breeding season is positively associated with the presence and abundance of mature and old-growth forests, large core areas of old-growth, low amounts of edge habitat, reduced habitat fragmentation, proximity tomarbled murrelet, refer to the final listing rule published in the Federal Register on October 1, 1992 (57 FR 45328), the final rule designating critical habitat published in the Federal Register on May 24, 1996 (61 FR 26256), and the proposed rule published in the Federal Register on July 31, 2008 (73 FR 44678). In the 1996 final critical habitat rule, we designated 3,887,800 ac (1,573,340 ha) of critical habitat in 32 units on Federal and non-Federal lands. On September 24, 1997, we completed a Recovery Plan for the marbled murrelet in Washington, Oregon, and California (Service 1997). On January 13, 2003, we entered into a settlement agreement with the American Forest Resource Council and the Western Council of Industrial Workers, whereby we agreed to review the marbled


murrelet critical habitat designation and make any revisions deemed appropriate after a revised consideration of economic and any other relevant impacts of designation. On April 21, 2003, we published a notice initiating a 5-year review of the marbled murrelet (68 FR 19569), and published a second information request for the 5-year review on July 25, 2003 (68 FR 44093). The 5-year review evaluation report was finished in March 2004 (McShane et al. 2004), and the 5-year review was completed on August 31, 2004.

On September 12, 2006, we published a proposed revision to critical habitat for the marbled murrelet, which included adjustments to the original designation and proposed several exclusions under section 4(b)(2) of the Act (71 FR 53838). On June 26, 2007, we published a notice of availabilityof a draft economic analysis (72 FR 35025) related to the September 12, 2006, proposed critical habitat revision (71 FR 53838). On March 6, 2008, we published a notice in the Federal Register (73 FR 12067) stating that the critical habitat for marbled murrelet should not be revised due to uncertainties regarding Bureau of Land Management (BLM) revisions to its District Resource Management Plans in western Oregon, and this notice fulfilled our obligations under the settlement agreement.

On July 31, 2008, we published a proposed rule to revise currently designated critical habitat for the marbled murrelet by removing approximately 254,070 acres (ac) (102,820 hectares (ha)) in northern California and Oregon from the 1996 designation (73 FR 44678). A revised 5-year review was completed on June 12, 2009. On January


21, 2010, in response to a petition to delist the marbled murrelet, we published a notice in the Federal Register (75 FR 3424) determining that removing the murrelet from the Endangered Species List was not warranted. We also found that the Washington/Oregon/California population of the murrelet is a valid distinct population segment (DPS) in accordance with the discreteness and significance criteria in our 1996 DPS policy (61 FR 4722; February 7, 1996) and concluded that the species continues to meet the definition of a threatened species under the ESA.

Summary of Comments and Recommendations

We requested written comments from the public on the proposed revised designation of critical habitat for the marbled murrelet in a proposed rule published on July 31, 2008 (73 FR 44678). During the comment period, whichclosed on August 30, 2008, we received 42 comments from organizations or individuals directly addressing the proposed critical habitat designation. Through template campaigns sponsored by The Wildlife Society and Conservation Northwest, we received an additional 2,825 comments.

The comment period was reopened on February 11, 2009 (74 FR 6852), and closed on March 13, 2009, during which we received 14 comments, which included 4 peer reviewers, 1 Federal agency, and 9 organizations or individuals. Nearly all commenters opposed the revision or reduction of some aspects of the designation of critical habitat for the marbled murrelet.

Several comments we received were outside the scope of the proposed rule, which was limited to (1) The proposed removal of approximately 191,000 ac (77,295 ha) of critical habitat in northern California and southern Oregon


reviewer Comment 2. Based on the detailed statistical analysis of the survey data, and the similarity of the areas not surveyed to the areas surveyed immediately to the north and south, there is low likelihood that murrelets occupy the areas proposed for removal from critical habitat designation in southern Oregon and northern California.

Comment 6: One reviewer pointed out that the habitat proposed for removal from critical habitat designation may act as a buffer of sorts for currently occupied habitat, particularly where it abuts the eastern edge of obviously occupied habitat. Increases in timber harvest or recreation in these areas would potentially bring edge effects (especially increased numbers of nest predators) closer to occupied habitat, and may reduce the suitability of the currently occupied habitat. The reviewer stated thatcritical habitat should be withdrawn and replaced with a delisting proposal, and the Service should not designate critical habitat for a species that no longer warrants ESA protection.

Our Response: We disagree. The marbled murrelet DPS in Washington, Oregon, and California continues to warrant protection under the Act, for the reasons described in the 12-month Finding on a Petition to Remove the Marbled Murrelet from the List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife, published in the Federal Register on January 21, 2010 (75 FR 3424). That finding determined that the DPS continues to meet the definition of a threatened species based on the species' population size and trajectory, in light of the scope and magnitude of existing threats.

Comment 13: Commenters stated there is no need to modify critical habitat in


4 of the Act, upon a determination that such areas are essential for the conservation of the species. The survey data for southern Oregon and northern California, along with the quality and quantity of habitat in this area, indicate there is a very low likelihood that murrelets occupy the LSRs or the other areas being removed from the 1996 critical habitat designation, and are unlikely to occupy these areas in the future (see responses under Peer Reviewer Comments). Accordingly, based on the best available scientific information, we have determined that these areas are not essential to the conservation of the species; therefore, requiring Federal agencies to enter into section 7 consultation with the Service on effects to critical habitat in these areas would be inconsistent with the Act.of forest stands in support of a critical habitat designation, particularly as related to the issue of fragmentation. BLM also expressed a concern that outdated land status information was used to prepare the proposed rule in northern California. They indicated that this is problematic in two key areas: Lacks Creek west of and adjacent to the Hoopa Reservation; and Gilman Butte east of the King Range National Conservation Area and south of Humboldt Redwoods State Park. The BLM also requested that we remove critical habitat from all areas not in the western hemlock/tanoak vegetation on the Grants Pass and Glendale Resource Areas of the Medford District. The agency commented that this area lacks murrelet recovery habitat, and historical observations and recent protocol surveys have not documented murrelet occupancy.


the listing process for the species. Additional information sources may include the recovery plan for the species, articles in peer-reviewed journals, conservation plans developed by States and counties, scientific status surveys and studies, biological assessments, or other unpublished materials and expert opinion or personal knowledge. Substantive comments received in response to proposed critical habitat designations are also considered. A five-year review summarizing the biological, ecological, and population information on the marbled murrelet was completed on June 12, 2009 (Service 2009). That report also evaluated current threats and how they may have changed since the species was listed. This information was considered in the completion of this revised designation, as was information from the 12-month Finding on a Petition to Remove the Marbled Murrelet from the List of EndangeredCalifornia and southern Oregon. No other critical habitat units designated in the May 24, 1996, final rule are affected by this revision. Each of the designated areas are within the geographical area occupied by the species at the time of listing, contain the physical or biological features essential to the conservation of the species, and may require special management considerations or protection.

The critical habitat areas described below reflect the best available scientific information regarding areas that no longer meet the definition of critical habitat for the marbled murrelet in Zone 2, because they are not essential to the conservation of the species.

Background

Cheri Swensson, on behalf of the Academy, submitted a petition for rulemaking dated May 5, 2011, and supplemented on August 3, 2011. The petitioner requested that the NRC amend Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), Section 26.187, “Substance abuse expert,” by including the Academy at Section 26.187(b)(5). The petitioner is the Executive Director for the Academy, which is an international credentialing body composed of psychologists, medical doctors, nurses, social workers, and counselors that provides care in areas such as alcohol and gambling addiction. In 2010, the Academy received its accreditation from the National Commission for Certifying Agencies (NCCA). The NRC has determined that the petition meets the threshold sufficiency requirements for a petition forresubmit their reports within 30 days of receiving the notice of rejection.

SBA is also proposing to address subcontracting plans in connection with Multi-Agency, Federal Supply Schedule, Multiple Award Schedule and Government-wide Acquisition IDIQ contracts. Funding agencies have expressed interest in receiving credit towards their subcontracting goals for orders placed against another agency's task or delivery order contract. SBA is proposing that the contracting officer for the IDIQ contract will establish subcontracting plans for contractors without commercial plans. The contractor will report small business subcontracting achievement on an order-by-order basis to the contracting officer for the contracting agency. Contractors are currently reporting information on all orders collectively on a semi-annual or annual basis. Reporting on an order-by-order basis will allow the funding agency to receive credit towards its small


during the landing phase of flight. The door damaged the trailing edge flap and punctured the rear fuselage near the floor level. The aircraft landed safely. Preliminary investigation indicates the failure was initiated by fatigue of the panel structure near a panel hinge lug. Loss of the main landing gear door during flight could result in damage to the aircraft and injury to persons on the ground.

Subsequent to the issuance of Revision 1 of this directive, Transport Canada (TC) approved an alternate means of compliance (AMOC), AARDG 2004/A007, to allow extension of the repeat inspection interval when inboard MLG doors have incorporated certain repairs or modifications.

Subsequent to the issuance of the TC AMOC AARDG 2004/A007, an inboard MLG door departed from an aircraft operating under an AMOC equivalentor negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to comply with this proposed AD and placed it in the AD docket.

The right-hand inboard main landing gear (MLG) door of a CRJ 700 departed the aircraft during the landing phase of flight. The door damaged the trailing edge flap and punctured the rear fuselage near the floor level. The aircraft landed safely. Preliminary investigation indicates the failure was initiated by fatigue of the panel structure near a panel hinge lug. Loss of the main landing gear door during flight could result in damage to the aircraft and injury to persons on the ground.

Atlantic Scallop Fishery Management Plans (FMP). NMFS enacted these measures to promote conservation of the fish species by limiting the potential increase in fishing capacity of the fleet and thereby maintaining total fishing mortality within the requirements of the respective rebuilding schedule of the FMP. In the following years, NMFS adopted limited access permits for other fisheries in the Northeast, some of which included various restrictions on how a permitted vessel could be replaced. In 1999, an omnibus amendment (Consistency Amendment) to all the FMPs of the Councils was implemented (64 FR 8263, February 19, 1999) to expand and standardize the upgrade restrictions to encompass most of the limited access fisheries in the Northeast.

The current regulations restrict the size and horsepower of any replacement vessel, or modifications tothe current vessel, based on the specifications of a baseline vessel. The baseline vessel for each limited access permit is typically the first vessel issued the limited access permit in that fishery at the time that permit was issued. In the case of fisheries that adopted baseline restrictions through the Consistency Amendment, the permitted vessel as of the date of the final rule's implementation sets the baseline. In some cases, this methodology resulted in a single vessel with permits for multiple fisheries having more than one baseline. In that situation, the most restrictive combination of baseline specifications applies, unless the vessel owner chooses to relinquish permanently the permit with the more restrictive baseline(s).

Current regulations allow vessel owners to increase (or upgrade) a specification either by moving the limited


context of the Board's standard 2,000-acre activation limit for a general-purpose zone project. The application was submitted pursuant to the Foreign-Trade Zones Act, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u), and the regulations of the Board (15 CFR part 400). It was formally filed on September 29, 2011. The applicant is authorized to make the proposal under Tennessee Code Sections 7-85-101 thru 7-85-103.

The proposed zone would be the third general-purpose zone in Tennessee for the Memphis CBP port of entry and would be the fifth zone overall for the port of entry. The existing zones are as follows: FTZ 77, Memphis, Tennessee (Grantee: City of Memphis, Board Order 189, April 2, 1982); FTZ 223, Memphis, Tennessee (Grantee: Memphis International Trade Development Corporation, Board Order 904, July 2, 1997); FTZ 262,Southaven, Mississippi (Grantee: Northern Mississippi FTZ, Inc., Board Order 1353, October 1, 2004); and, FTZ 273, West Memphis, Arkansas (Grantee: City of West Memphis, Arkansas, Board Order 1551, April 15, 2008).

The applicant's proposed service area under the ASF would be Dyer, Gibson, Haywood, Lake, Lauderdale, Madison, Obion and Tipton Counties, Tennessee. If approved, the applicant would be able to serve sites throughout the service area based on companies' needs for FTZ designation. The proposed service area is adjacent to the Memphis CBP port of entry.

Background: The CINTAC was established under the discretionary authority of the Secretary of Commerce and in accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (5 U.S.C. App.), in response to an identified need for consensus advice from U.S. industry to the U.S. GovernmentNMFS may issue permits, under limited circumstances, to take listed species incidental to, and not the purpose of, otherwise lawful activities. Section 10(a)(1)(B) of the ESA provides for authorizing incidental take of listed species. NMFS regulations governing permits for threatened and endangered species are published at 50 CFR 222.307.

NMFS issued Permit No. 1259 to NCDMF (65 FR 65840, November 2, 2000), Permit No. 1348 (66 FR 51023, October 5, 2001), Permit No. 1398 (67 FR 67150, November 4, 2002), and Permit No. 1528 (70 FR 52984, September 6, 2005) authorizing the incidental take of the foregoing species in certain segments of the commercial fall gill net fisheries for flounder in Pamlico Sound subject to a series of mandatory sea turtle management and monitoring requirements and limits on the


40.70′ N.-76° 22.50′ W. to 34° 42.48′ N.-76° 36.70′ W. to the Western side of White Oak River. Management Unit D-2 includes Newport River, Bogue Sound and White Oak River. Management Unit E encompasses all estuarine waters south and west of the Western side of the White Oak River to the North Carolina/South Carolina state line. This includes the Atlantic Intercoastal Waterway and adjacent sounds, and the New, Cape Fear, Lockwood Folly and Shallotte rivers.

The large mesh (≥ 5 inch stretched mesh (12.7 cm)) gill net fisheries primarily target southern flounder (Paralicthys lethostigma), striped bass (Morone saxatilis), American shad (Alosa americana), hickory shad (Polomolobus mediocris), and catfishes (Ictalurus sp.). Large mesh gill net fisheries for flounder traditionally operate throughout the majority of the sounds and lower estuarine riversystems with peaks in effort in the spring/summer months (April-June), and in the fall months (September-November). Fisheries for striped bass are more limited in time and space due to the anadromous migration pattern of this species. Striped bass gill net fisheries are prosecuted from late October through late April; fishermen are prohibited from targeting striped bass from May through early October. Consequently, the majority of striped bass effort occurs in Albemarle Sound with seasonal effort occurring in the Pamlico Sound and the Pamlico and Neuse River systems. American and hickory shad fishing operations occur almost exclusively from January 1 through April 14 due to their anadromous migration patterns and distribution. Catfish are harvested with large mesh gill nets in the river and Western Albemarle Sound with the majority


most landings occurring in the spring during April and May. Spotted seatrout and weakfish are targeted by small mesh gillnet operations primarily in the fall/winter (September to January) months. Weakfish landings may also peak in the spring during April and May. Atlantic menhaden are mostly targeted during the spring (February to May) with another peak in landings occurring in October. Spanish mackerel are primarily targeted during the spring and fall months. White perch are almost exclusively targeted during the winter/spring months (December to April). Kingfishes are targeted primarily in the spring and the fall throughout the estuarine and river systems. Mesh sizes used in small mesh gill net operations vary more than those used in large mesh fisheries. However, the most commonly used small mesh sizes generally fallThe final NEPA and permit determinations will not be completed until after the end of the 60-day comment period. NMFS will fully consider all public comments received during the comment period. NMFS will publish a record of its final action in the Federal Register.
