Boy's Stockholm Jacket
Beneath the slick, stylish surface of the Stockholm is a serious garment built for enduring rough winters. We use high-quality 650-fill goose down - nature's best insulator - then added appointments like a zip-off hood, micro fleece internal cuffs, and a selection of internal and external pockets, to create a jacket that gets through the harshest winters in style.
- Main Materials
- 100% Nylon Shiny Plain Weave 1.2 oz/yd
- Insulation Material
- 700 Fill Power Down with Down Defender
- Fit
- Regular Fit
- Weight
- 0lbs 9.7oz (275g)
Down Defender
What is it ?
Marmot Down Defender is an insurance policy for your down garments. This specially treated highly water-resistant down offers an extra level of moisture protection for down garments exposed to wet environments. Down Defender helps prevent down from clumping and losing its loft when exposed to water, thereby greatly increasing its ability to keep you warm and comfortable.
- Stays drier 10 times longer than untreated down
- Maintains 150% more loft than untreated down in damp conditions
- Dries 30% faster than untreated down
- Treatment is PFOA and PFOS free
- Bluesign approved
We've currently used Down Defender in our Snowsports, Urban Exploration and Kids collections.
How does it work ?
The treatment coats the individual plumes of the down cluster with a DWR (durable water repellent) at the molecular level. It puts a hydrophobic layer on each individual plume of the cluster. This treatment is done during the down cleaning process. The finish is extremely durable allowing the down to maintain its water repellency over 20 washes. The treatment also enhances the down's integrity and the durability of the cluster helping to increase its longevity.
What are the benefits of this technology?
Down Defender garments stay drier longer, maintain their loft better and dry faster than conventional untreated down jackets.

Summary: Mu DNA binding, I gamma subdomain
Pfam includes annotations and additional family information from a range of different sources. These sources can be accessed via the tabs below.
This is the Wikipedia entry entitled "Helix-turn-helix". More...
Helix-turn-helix Edit Wikipedia article
In proteins, the helix-turn-helix (HTH) is a major structural motif capable of binding DNA. It is composed of two α helices joined by a short strand of amino acids and is found in many proteins that regulate gene expression. It should not be confused with the helix-loop-helix domain.[1]
The discovery of the helix-turn-helix motif was based on similarities between several genes encoding transcription regulatory proteins from bacteriophage lambda and Escherichia coli: Cro, CAP, and λ repressor, which were found to share a common 20-25 amino acid sequence that facilitates DNA recognition.[2][3][4][5]
The helix-turn-helix motif is a DNA-binding motif. The recognition and binding to DNA by helix-turn-helix proteins is done by the two α helices, one occupying the N-terminal end of the motif, the other at the C-terminus. In most cases, such as in the Cro repressor, the second helix contributes most to DNA recognition, and hence it is often called the "recognition helix". It binds to the major groove of DNA through a series of hydrogen bonds and various Van der Waals interactions with exposed bases. The other α helix stabilizes the interaction between protein and DNA, but does not play a particularly strong role in its recognition.[2] The recognition helix and its preceding helix always have the same relative orientation.[6]
Classification of helix-turn-helix motifs
Several attempts have been made to classify the helix-turn-helix motifs based on their structure and the spatial arrangement of their helices[6][7][8] Some of the main types are described below.
The di-helical helix-turn-helix motif is the simplest helix-turn-helix motif. A fragment of Engrailed homeodomain encompassing only the two helices and the turn was found to be an ultrafast independently folding protein domain.[9]
An example of this motif is found in the Transcriptional activator Myb.[10]
The tetra-helical helix-turn-helix motif has an additional C-terminal helix compared to the tri-helical motifs. These include the LuxR-type DNA-binding HTH domain found in bacterial transcription factors and the helix-turn-helix motif found in the TetR repressors.[11] Multihelical versions with additional helices also occur.[12]
Winged helix-turn-helix
The winged helix-turn-helix (wHTH) motif is formed by a 3-helical bundle and a 3- or 4-strand beta-sheet (wing). The topology of helices and strands in the wHTH motifs may vary. In the transcription factor ETS wHTH folds into a helix-turn-helix motif on a four-stranded anti-parallel beta-sheet scaffold arranged in the order α1-β1-β2-α2-α3-β3-β4 where the third helix is the DNA recognition helix.[13][14]
Other modified helix-turn-helix motifs
Other derivatives of the helix-turn-helix motif include the DNA-binding domain found in MarR, a regulator of multiple antibiotic resistance, which forms a winged helix-turn-helix with an additional C-terminal alpha helix.[8][15]

Mu DNA binding, I gamma subdomain Provide feedback
Members of this family are responsible for binding the DNA attachment sites at each end of the Mu genome. They adopt a secondary structure comprising a four helix bundle tightly packed around a hydrophobic core consisting of aliphatic and aromatic amino acid residues. Helices 1 and 2 are oriented antiparallel to each other. Helix 3 crosses helices 1 and 2 at angles of 60 and 120 degrees, respectively. Excluding the C-terminal helix 4, the fold of the I-gamma subdomain is remarkably similar to that of the homeodomain family of helix-turn-helix DNA-binding proteins, although their amino acid sequences are completely unrelated [1].

Visa USA and NFL Star Derrick Brooks of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Team-Up to Put Bloomingdale High School Students Through Fiscal Gridiron Workout
Students at Bloomingdale Gain Positive Yardage in Game of "Financial Football"
Valrico, FL – December 12, 2005 – Going on offense to advance financial literacy, Visa USA has teamed up with NFL star Derrick Brooks of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to talk with Tampa Bay area students about driving toward the end-zone in a different game, one which prepares them to become fiscally fit adults.
"When I was in high school, there were no classes to educate us about how to make smart, informed decisions about money management," said Derrick Brooks to a crowded room full of students and teachers at Bloomingdale High School. "I am glad to be here today to share with these students the kinds of skills they will need as they begin to manage their own finances and learn how to stick to a budget."
At Bloomingdale, Brooks was coach of the "home team," comprised of half the students, while Debra Buono, Advanced Placement economics teacher, headed up the "visiting team." Together, they engaged students using an animated computer game called "Financial Football." The content, developed with the cooperation of the NFL and the NFL Players Association, incorporates lessons taught through Practical Money Skills for Life, Visa's award-winning money management curriculum.
Today's event is part of a seventeen (17) city campaign in partnership with the NFL to promote financial literacy in schools across the country. The NFL players will help the program reach the grassroots level, visiting high schools in their local markets, to provide basic financial literacy training.
"Financial Football" combines the structure and rules of the NFL with financial education questions of varying difficulty. To score points, a team needs to answer questions correctly. And, just like in the NFL, penalties can cost a team yardage. The team with the highest point total after four quarters wins the game.
"Equipping the next generation of professionals, civic leaders, trades people, executives and business owners with vital financial skills really needs to be a cooperative effort between schools, the business community and government," said Sue Burkett, Assistant Principal of Curriculum, Bloomingdale High School.
"Visa is proud of its long-standing commitment to financial education, and greatly appreciates the assistance we received today from both Derrick Brooks and the students and faculty at Bloomingdale High School," said Michael Rolnick, director, Visa USA. "We take great pride in our NFL sponsorship, which is enabling us to work with so many talented players to give students the tools, resources and encouragement they need to become more financially literate."
Practical Money Skills for Life (www.PracticalMoneySkills.com) is a comprehensive financial literacy program - available in English, Spanish and Chinese – that teaches young adults personal finance skills. The program reaches more than 100,000 schools and 37 million students in the United States.
The free educational resource provides teachers with lesson plans (kindergarten-college) mapped to their state education requirements, as well as teacher guides, overheads, instructional videos and CD-ROMs. For students, there are interactive games and calculators designed to teach responsibility and important concepts such as earning, saving, and budgeting money.

Laws governing petition circulators
The initiative states regulate petition circulators in a variety of ways. These include residency requirements, age requirements, requiring circulators to disclose whether they are paid or volunteer circulators, requiring the circulator to personally witness each act of signing the petition, bans on payment of petitioners per signature, and restrictions on where circulators are allowed to solicit signatures.
Laws governing petition circulators are an active area of legislative and legal action. In general, proponents of additional restrictions on circulations say that the laws work to guard the integrity of the petition process, while opponents of additional regulations say that the laws are (a) unconstitutional and (b) an attempt by powerful politicians to put a veneer of respectability on recurrent and multi-faceted attempts to squelch the initiative process.
Residency and Age Requirements
For residency requirements, see Residency requirements for petition circulators
In the 1999 U.S. Supreme Court case Buckley v. American Constitutional Law Foundation, the Supreme Court upheld the right of Colorado to impose an age restriction on petition circulators.
More than half of the 24 I&R states require that petition circulators be eligible to vote in the state. The requirement that a circulator be eligible to vote also has the consequence that the circulator be at least 18. In states where there is no eligibility requirement, people who are under 18 are allowed to circulate petitions.
Disclosing Paid Status
Seven states require circulators to disclose whether they are a paid or a volunteer circulator to potential petition signers. These states are Arizona, California, Nebraska, Ohio, Oregon and Wyoming--all of which require that a prominent notice be placed on the petition form stating whether the circulator is paid or volunteer--and Missouri, where the circulator must file an affidavit with the Missouri Secretary of State.
In Oregon, as of January 1, 2008, paid circulators must carry a registration form with them indicating that they have taken the state's mandatory training program for paid circulators. Also as of January 1, 2008, the color of volunteer circulator petition sheets and paid circulator petition sheets is required to be different.
Identification badges
In Buckley v. American Constitutional Law Foundation, the U.S. Supreme Court invalidated a Colorado law that required circulators to wear a badge disclosing their name and status. in its decision, the court wrote:
District Court found from evidence ACLF presented that compelling circulators to wear identification badges inhibits participation in the petitioning process.
See also: Badge requirements.
Witness and Affidavit Requirements
Eighteen of the 24 initiative states require that circulators must personally witness each petition signature and sign an oath or affidavit stating that he or she personally witnesses the signing of the signature. States with these requirements include Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Maine, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington and Wyoming.
In Florida, the law specifically says that petitions may be signed outside the presence of a circulator.
In Buckley v. American Constitutional Law Foundation, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld a Colorado law requiring circulator affidavits on petition forms.
Restrictions on method and amount of signature payment
Bans on payment-per-signature
In North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Montana, Nebraska and Wyoming initiative sponsors are banned from paying petition circulators per signature. An 2005 Ohio law banning payment-per-signature was struck down by a federal judge in November 2006 in the case of Citizens for Tax Reform v. Deters. (The decision is being appealed.)
North Dakota's law banning pay-per-signature was upheld by the 8th circuit court in the case of Initiative & Referendum Institute v. Jaeger. Oregon's law was upheld in 2005 by a federal district judge in the case of Prete v. Bradbury.
The laws in South Dakota and Montana[1] banning pay-per-signature are new in 2007 and have not been litigated.[2]
New in 2007
New in 2008
State legislator DiAnna Schimek proposed Nebraska Legislative Bill 39, which forbids paying people who circulate petitions for each signature they collect. Vetoed by Gov. Dave Heineman, the Nebraska legislature narrowly overrode the veto. Violating the new law is a Class III misdemeanor punishable with a $500 fine and three months in jail.
Bans found unconstitutional
Pay-per-signature provisions in Idaho, Maine, Mississippi and Washington have been struck down as unconstitutional in federal district courts.
Ceiling on amount that can be paid per signature
In Alaska, the maximum amount that a petition sponsor can pay a circulator per signature is $1.00.
Mandatory state-administered training requirements
In Oregon as of January 1, 2008, paid petition circulators must take a government-administered training class before they are allowed to collect signatures.

- History of restrictions on paid circulators
- Prete v. Bradbury, the U.S. Eighth Circuit judgment upholding Oregon's ban on pay-per-signature.
- Citizens for Tax Reform v. Deters, a November 2006 case that found Ohio's ban on pay-per-signature unconstitutional.
- Idaho Coalition United for Bears v. Cenarrusa, the 2001 federal decision invalidating Idaho's ban on pay-per-signature.
- On Our Terms '97 PAC v. Maine Secretary of State, the 1999 federal decision invalidating Maine's ban.
- LIMIT v. Maleng, the 1994 federal decision invalidating Washington's ban
- Term Limits Leadership Council v. Clark, the judicial decision invalidating Mississippi's ban
Restrictions on where circulators are allowed to solicit signatures
Although states typically do not have statutory provisions regarding where a circulator is allowed to stand or physically locate himself or herself when soliciting signatures, several of the initiative states have judicial rulings regulating this aspect of the petition process.
In 1979, in the case of Robins v. Pruneyard Shopping Center, the California Supreme Court determined that "soliciting signatures for a petition to the government" is an activity protected by the California Constitution. Subsequent cases pulled back from that level of certainty, but in December 2007, by a slim margin in the case of Fashion Valley Mall v. National Labor Relations Board, that court appears to have asserted that free speech rights supersede private property rights.
Laws governing paid blockers
Although the initiative states have a number of laws governing petition drives and circulators, there are few if any restrictions governing paid blockers and petition blocking campaigns.
See Laws governing petition blockers.
