The timing for implementation of the projects and technologies covers several decades. The US is developing international cooperation on innovative nuclear technologies under the auspices of the Generation-IV International Forum program. The selection of conceptual solutions to nuclear energy systems and components whose deployment could begin as early as 2030 has been addressed. In addition, a methodology for the assessment and selection of the system and component proposals, and an analysis and screening of the submitted proposals based on the developed methodology , is being conducted. Beginning in 2003, it is anticipated that the selected system and component solutions will move to the R&D phase based on bilateral and multilateral cooperation among participating countries. The degree of convergence between these parallel efforts should be discussed in the pursuit of Russia-U.S. collaboration. 12.

Focus On Committed and Underpaid Staff for Children's Sake Act. ; What is it? Newly proposed federal legislation. The purpose of FOCUS is to establish the Child Care Provider Retention and Development Grant Program and the Child Care Provider Scholarship Grant Program. The FOCUS Act would provide billion over five years to the states for the express purpose of attracting and retaining qualified child care providers. Who would it benefit? Participation in the program would be open to full-time and part-time staff working with children in centers, family child care, school age programs and Head Start. Who is sponsoring it? In the Senate, Senator Dodd D-CT ; , in the House, Representatives Miller DCA ; , Gilman R-NY ; , Sanders I-VT ; , and Kildee D-MI ; . What can you do to Help? Talk to the people who represent us in Congress. Forward messages to your congressional representative, asking them to support increased funding for the Child Care Block Grant and tell them Iowa's children in child care depend on trained, skilled consistent workers. To send a message to your members of Congress visit congress.nw.dc cdf elecmail . or go naeyc and click on Children's Champions to sign up for up-dates and to email members in Congress and camptosar.

In Vitro Receptor Binding Autoradiography Steady-state binding assays were performed by incubating the sections taken from P36 animals ; with the appropriate radioligand to identify NMDA receptors [3H]MK-801 ; , kainate receptors [3H]kainic acid ; , AMPA receptors [3H]fluorowillardine ; , or GABAA receptors [3H]muscimol ; . NMDA and kainate receptor binding were performed as previously described Jablonska et al., 1996, 1998 ; . Prior to incubation with the appropriate ligand the brain sections were washed with a specific incubation buffer see below ; at 4C to remove endogenous ligands, for either 10 min with [3H]MK-801 binding and [ 3H]muscimol binding or 10 min 3 for [3H]fluorowillardine and [ 3H]kainate binding. After this, the sections used to identify NMDA receptors were incubated with 3 nM [3H]MK-801 32.75 Ci mmol, Tocris ; , 5 M glycine, 5 M glutamate, 50 M spermidine in 50 mM TrisHCl buffer pH 7.4, 20C ; for 1 h. Non-specific binding was determined in the presence of 100 M MK801. The slides were subsequently rinsed three times with ice-cold TrisHCl pH 7.4 ; for 15 s, twice in ice-cold water 5 s ; and finally rapidly dipped in two changes of acetone containing 2.5% glutaraldehyde for 15 s. Kainate receptors were labeled with 5 nM [3H]kainate 58 Ci mmol, Tocris ; in 50 mM Trisacetate pH 7.0, 4C ; for 30 min. Non-specific binding was defined in the presence of 100 M unlabelled kainate. Following incubation, the sections were washed three times in ice-cold buffer 50 mM Trisacetate pH 7.4 ; and once in ice-cold water over a total wash time of 5 s. Then the slides were dried in a stream of cold air. For the AMPA and GABAA receptor binding assays, sections were incubated in 20 nM [3H]fluorowillardine 29.08 Ci mmol, Tocris ; in 50 mM TrisHCl buffer pH 7.4, 4C ; for 40 min or with 20 nM [3H]muscimol 29.50 Ci mmol, NEN ; in the same buffer for 60 min. Non-specific binding was determined in the presence of 0.1 mM fluorowillardine or 0.1 mM muscimol. After incubation with the ligand, the tissue sections were washed in the incubation buffer alone for a total time of either 5 s for [3H] fluorowillardine binding, or 2 min for [3H]muscimol binding, before being blown dry in a stream of cold, dry air. For each radioligand, non-specific binding never exceeded 1% of total binding. Quantitative Analysis of Autoradiographs Once the sections were completely dry they were exposed to [3H]Hyperfilm Amersham, UK ; , together with radioactive standards [ 3H] microscales, Amersham, UK ; in X-ray cassettes for 4 weeks for [ 3 H]MK801, [ 3 H]fluorowillardine and [ 3H]muscimol binding and 3 months for [ 3H]kainite binding. Quantitative analysis of the autoradiographs was performed using a computer-assisted optical densitometry system Image-Pro Plus; 1 MediaCybernetics, Carlsbad, CA ; . The cortical layers were identified in adjacent Nissl-stained sections. Optical density measurements were taken through each cortical layer in the hand region of area 3b. Samplings of each layer were obtained from 511 different sections using at least three different animals from each condition and the arithmetic mean SEM ; was calculated from all readings. The concentration of the bound radioligand was calculated from a standard curve created by using the [3H] microscale references. Receptor density was expressed in femtomoles of specifically bound ligand per milligram of tissue weight fmol mg tissue ; . Differences in binding in each layer between normal and E33 MAM-treated animals were analyzed using two-way t-test. Immunocytochemistry To localize GABAA receptors in somatosensory cortex we applied an antibody directed against all subunits of GABAA receptors mouse anti-GABAA Receptor, -chain monoclonal antibody; Chemicon ; . To quench endogenous peroxidase, sections were preincubated in TrisHCl buffer pH 7.4 ; with 5% normal horse serum NHS ; , 0.3% TritonX-100, 1% H2O2 and 10% methanol for 1 h. To block nonspecific binding the slides were transferred to the TrisHCl buffer pH 7.4 ; as above without hydrogen peroxidase for 20 min at room temperature. After overnight incubation with the primary antibody to GABAA receptor 1: 10 ; sections were washed 3 10min in buffer ; and then incubated with the secondary antibody Vectastain Elite ABC kit ; . The GABAA staining was visualized using a Vector VIP peroxidase substrate kit. The sections were then mounted on subbed.

Ailin Graef's avatar, Anshe Chung, cost her an initial investment of just US.95 to set up her Second Life account, but has made her a real life millionaire. Anshe bought Second Life real estate, which she subdivided, developed and landscaped with panache, and put up for rent and resale. Other avatars bought into the lifestyle Anshe created. Two and half years later, Anshe is a virtual real estate mogul with projects that vie with large scale real world models. Anshe Chung is not the only virtual resident earning a comfortable living for her owner. More and more subscribers are making Second Life their place of business. As of April 2007, economic activity on Second Life averaged over US.5 million per day. Items available for sale include clothing, avatar hair and skin texture, vehicles, furniture and, of course, homes most sold using in-world brands. As financial and physical barriers to entry are non-existent, the only parameters for success are design quality and brand reputation. Anyone can compete with the biggest, most successful and luxurious real world brands that have in-world presence. But there are threats to the virtual market place. At the end of 2006, CopyBot, a program put up for sale by the avatar Prim Revolution, caused an uproar among Second Life residents. CopyBot can clone any virtual good without paying for it threatening the in-world economy and real world revenues. Linden Labs has banned the program and residents can file an Abuse Report and a complaint for infringement under the DMCA, but it is a difficult process and butorphanol.
