General comments
A) The "Types" of subordinate bodies (18.104.22.168 and 188.8.131.52)
Type 1: Incorporate the instructions for Type 1 government bodies (18.104.22.168) into the instructions for general bodies (188.8.131.52).
184.108.40.206, type 1: how does Meeting imply subordination? If it did, the Annual Meeting ex. wouldn't have been in old type 6.
--John Hostage 14:31, 9 July 2012 (PDT)
The types are not mutually exclusive. While "Meeting" was not a word in the old Type 1, even if it had been that would not mean that a name containing that word couldn't also be Type 6 (a name containing the entire name of the higher body). The presence or absence of the name of the higher body is not a factor for Type 1.
There was not 100% agreement on making "Meeting" a Type 1 term. However, the inclusion did not generate any discussion in CC:DA, either on the wiki or at the meeting in Anaheim. While it does not necessarily imply subordination, it is felt that it is best treated subordinately whenever it is, in fact, subordinate. (Naturally, in the case of a meeting that is independent, the name cannot be treated subordinately.)
--K. Randall, 7/10/12
It's not surprising that there was not much discussion, since there wasn't much time to digest a 63-page report. RDA 184.108.40.206.4 under "Conferences, congresses, meetings, etc." discusses the treatment of meeting names. It is clear that Meeting is not a "term that by definition implies administrative subordination." Meetings were adequately handled by the current type 3 and type 6. For terms that imply subordination, I would be happy to stick with the list in LCPS 188.8.131.52. --John Hostage 06:49, 11 July 2012 (PDT)
I don't think "meeting" fits very comfortably into Type 1 - it makes more sense to me where it is now, as a Type 3 term - but I understand what the Task Force is trying to do. If we want to eliminate Type 6 but still have all subordinate meetings entered subordinately, for reasons good enough to justify rejecting the principle of Representation in this case, the alternative to this approach would be to create a whole new category for meetings, conferences, etc. (a new Type 6??). --Robert J. Rendall 14:55, 17 July 2012 (PDT)
Type 2: Combine the instructions for Type 2 general bodies (188.8.131.52) and Type 2 government bodies (188.8.131.52) with the instructions for Type 1 in 220.127.116.11. Eliminate the provision that the name of the higher body be required for identification of the subordinate body.
AACR2 was a major advance over earlier codes because it aimed to enter most persons and corporate bodies under the names by which they are known and which are likely to be familiar to users. Subordinate entry of corporate bodies was avoided except when it seemed to be necessary, such as a name that really implied subordination or a name that wouldn't be clear without the higher body. That's why type 2 was subordinate only if necessary to identify the body. That solves the problem of names like Royal Commission on Education in Ontario. The proposal will cause a lot of names that were entered directly to be entered subordinately. Subordinate entry is inherently artificial. --John Hostage 13:03, 13 July 2012 (PDT)
I agree with John and would recommend reconsidering the changes affecting type 2 proposed above. Increasing the number of names entered subordinately seems like a move in the wrong direction. Re: the question posed in the Task Force report at the end of the discussion of type 2, I would say that bodies whose names imply they are "part of another" are a subset of those whose names imply "administrative subordination," but that doesn't mean we can't continue to make this distinction and require subordination under all conditions only for the first category if it suits us to do so. --Robert J. Rendall 12:52, 16 July 2012 (PDT)
I do not understand how the distinction can be made clear enough so that it can be applied with any degree of consistency. Please explain how a typical cataloger will see these terms as implying administrative subordination:
- Advisory Panel, Bureau, Cabinet, Commission, Committee, Office, Subcommittee, Working Group
while at the same time seeing these terms as not implying administrative subordination:
- Department, Division, Section, Unit
--K. Randall, 7/16/12
As I said above, they all imply administrative subordination. But Department, Division, Section, Unit also by definition imply that they are "part" of the higher body, and that's the definition of type 1. We've been making this distinction for years and it makes as much sense as it ever did. Which doesn't necessarily mean that we need to keep making it, but John's point is that it may serve a purpose here. --Robert J. Rendall 14:36, 16 July 2012 (PDT)
How can something "imply administrative subordination" without also implying being "part of another"? I simply cannot understand this, although I can understand the converse (implying being part of another but not implying administrative subordination). But even the latter would be difficult to distinguish consistently. And I do not see at all what the purpose is of making this distinction. And why in the world should "administrative subordination" be less likely to result in subordinate entry than simply "being part of another"? The argument "it makes as much sense as it ever did" is not a strong one to me; if it didn't make sense then, why should it make sense now? The word "Department" is almost the epitome of implying administrative subordination, yet it's a Type 1 word (only "part of another"). K. Randall, 7/16/12
You have to consider the full rule in both types in AACR2. Type 1 contains words that imply the body is part of another. In other words they will always be entered subordinately. Words in type 2 imply administrative subordination, which is not as strong a condition as being part of something, and names with these words can stand alone, e.g. National Commission on United Methodist Higher Education. So yes, words in type 1 do more than imply administrative subordination; they come right out and say it. For example, when the IFLA Committee on Cataloguing changed its name to IFLA Section on Cataloguing, it went from a type 2 to a type 1 name, and from direct entry to subordinate entry. It may be a subtle difference, but with the help of the list of terms in the LCRI, it's not that difficult. The purpose of making the distinction is to allow direct entry in more cases than would otherwise be possible. It always made sense to me. --John Hostage 07:18, 17 July 2012 (PDT)
Type 3: Incorporate the instructions for Type 3 government bodies (126.96.36.199) into the instructions for general bodies (18.104.22.168).
Type 4: Incorporate the instructions for Type 4 government bodies (188.8.131.52) into the instructions for general bodies (188.8.131.52). Omit the provision regarding the name of the government.
Type 5: No change required.
Type 6: Eliminate 18.104.22.168, Type 6.
As illustrated by the discussion of Stanford University Archives versus the NLRB's "Library" below, the inconsistent results depending on interpretation of typography etc. described in the task force report's discussion of Type 6 will not be eliminated by removing this type alone. And the instructions for Type 6 are not completely irrational; in a 1967 card catalog, it would have seemed absurdly pedantic to file the Trustees of the British Library (an example from AACR[1], where this was called Type 1!) under T, rather than flipping the heading and filing under British Library. Trustees. But I agree that in our current environment it's time to let go of this one and just let the principle of Representation determine the form of access point for these names. --Robert J. Rendall 13:54, 17 July 2012 (PDT)
B) "General" government body guidelines and instructions (184.108.40.206-220.127.116.11)
Remove 184.108.40.206-188.8.131.52.
C) Government officials (220.127.116.11)
Reword the instructions so the restriction applies to all levels of government in post-medieval times.
D) Legislative subcommittees (184.108.40.206.2-126.96.36.199.3)
Revise the instructions to have subcommittees and subordinate units entered under the name of the parent committee, regardless of country.
E) General structure of 188.8.131.52-184.108.40.206
Remove the general instructions for subordinate religious bodies (188.8.131.52), but not the specific instructions in 126.96.36.199.1-18.104.22.168.3. Add types to 126.96.36.199 referencing the types of religious bodies covered in 184.108.40.206-220.127.116.11. Add a phrase at the beginning of 22.214.171.124 stating that the instructions apply unless other instructions are given in later numbers.
F) Provinces, dioceses, synods, etc. (18.104.22.168.1) and Catholic dioceses, etc. (18.104.22.168.2)
Move the instructions for Catholic dioceses, etc. (220.127.116.11.2) into 188.8.131.52.1, as an exception.
Issues Which May Warrant Further Consideration
Courts (22.214.171.124)
Religious officials (22.214.171.124.2)
- Please comment on examples that seem to be incorrect or inappropriate (e.g., they illustrate the wrong instruction) or insufficient. Virtually all existing examples have been retained, being only moved or modified when the instruction has been changed. It is understood that the examples will need to be pared down, but our energy right now should be spent on verifying the examples that are there (and supplying examples in the rare places where examples are inadequate). Examples can be weeded at a later time.
- PLEASE DISCUSS EXAMPLES IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER, and include a reference to the proposed new instruction number under which the example is given.
American Battle Monuments Commission (184.108.40.206)
220.127.116.11: why is American Battle Monuments Commission not in new type 1?
--John Hostage 14:31, 9 July 2012 (PDT)
Right, this is an agency of the executive branch of the U.S. and should be moved to 126.96.36.199, Type 1 as:
- United States. American Battle Monuments Commission
- Name: American Battle Monuments Commission
--K. Randall, 7/10/12
American Legion. Auxiliary (18.104.22.168, Type 1)
American Legion Auxiliary should be moved to 126.96.36.199.
--John Hostage 14:31, 9 July 2012 (PDT)
The general definition of "Auxiliary" would seem to imply subordination. There are very many instances of names with "Auxiliary" entered subordinately under AACR2. Bear in mind that we must consider both the nature of the body and the name--for example, a name may not be Type 1 even though it contains a term that would fit into Type 1. The body itself must be subordinate, not merely have a name that looks like it could be subordinate. (For example, "American Committee on the History of the Second World War" is not a subordinate body, even though it contains a word that might imply subordination.) In this case, there is a word that implies subordination AND the body is subordinate.
--K. Randall, 7/10/12
The American Legion Auxiliary seems to be an independent organization, affiliated with but not part of the American Legion. --John Hostage 15:23, 10 July 2012 (PDT)
Well, this is about subordinate or related bodies. The body to which "American Legion Auxiliary" is auxiliary is "American Legion", so it would seem to properly fit Type 1, even if there is not a formal hierarchical relationship between the two bodies. --K. Randall, 7/10/12
Type 1 has been revised to read "a term that by definition implies administrative subordination," which is much narrower than "related". Auxiliary does not by definition imply subordination to me. The OED definition for the noun is "One who renders help or gives assistance; a helper, assistant, confederate, ally; also, that which gives help, a source or means of assistance." One of the only problems with the current type 6 is that names like American Legion Auxiliary are not entered directly. There is no advantage in moving it to another place to artificially continue entering it subordinately. --John Hostage 09:18, 11 July 2012 (PDT)
Entering the American Legion Auxiliary as American Legion. Auxiliary is the kind of cataloging silliness I would prefer to leave behind us. Let's take advantage of this revision process to do that. --Robert J. Rendall 15:21, 17 July 2012 (PDT)
Australian Labor Party. Tasmanian Branch (18.104.22.168)
184.108.40.206: Tasmanian Branch not parallel situation; instruction calls for omitting "Tasmanian". I would think this rule was created for the peculiar nature of U.S. political parties.
--John Hostage 14:31, 9 July 2012 (PDT)
Looking at this more closely, I cannot even find any correspondence between the instruction and the examples in the original! It says, "Record the name of a state or local unit of a political party in the United States as a subdivision of the authorized access point representing the party." But what the examples seem to show are units of state or local parties, because the primary part of the access point (110 $a, in MARCspeak) is a state party. The states are given as qualifiers for the name of the highest unit, not as subdivisions. Can anyone explain this?
--K. Randall, 7/10/12
The original rule (AACR2 24.16A) is an extreme example of "case law" cataloging but at least it is correctly illustrated by the examples given below it. In RDA the instruction was garbled (in an attempt to rationalize it?) but the examples still illustrate application of the original AACR2 rule. --Robert J. Rendall 15:05, 10 July 2012 (PDT)
Agree with Robert. --John Hostage 15:23, 10 July 2012 (PDT)
If this rule is still desired, then perhaps it should be changed back to the original wording from AACR2:
- Enter a state or local unit of a political party in the United States under the name of the party followed by the state or local name in parentheses and then the name of the unit. Omit from the name of the unit any indication of the name of the party or the state or locality.
--K. Randall, 7/10/12
Canada. Corporations Canada (188.8.131.52)
184.108.40.206: why is Corporations Canada not entered directly like Multiculturalism Canada (on p. 18).
--John Hostage 14:31, 9 July 2012 (PDT)
This name is incorrect, and should be moved to 220.127.116.11, as:
- Corporations Canada
"Multiculturalism Canada" is treated correctly.
--K. Randall, 7/10/12
Copyright Board Canada (188.8.131.52)
18.104.22.168: why is Copyright Board Canada not subordinate when Board is used otherwise as subordinate (e.g. Hereford Diocesan Board of Education; Vancouver School Board; National Labor Relations Board)?
--John Hostage 14:31, 9 July 2012 (PDT)
Right, this should be moved to 18.104.22.168, Type 1, as:
- Canada. Copyright Board Canada
- Name: Copyright Board Canada
--K. Randall, 7/10/12
I think you would have to drop the name of the higher body, so: Canada. Copyright Board. --John Hostage 09:18, 11 July 2012 (PDT)
Keeping Type 2 would allow us to continue entering this as Copyright Board Canada. I think that would be preferable. --Robert J. Rendall 15:21, 17 July 2012 (PDT)
Hawaii Macadamia Nut Association. Annual Meeting (184.108.40.206, Type 1)
Hawaii Macadamia Nut Association. Annual Meeting should be moved back to new type 2.
--John Hostage 14:31, 9 July 2012 (PDT)
Since "Meeting" is one of the Type 1 words, this appears to be in the correct place.
--K. Randall, 7/10/12
It has been shown above that Meeting should not be a Type 1 word. It does not by definition imply administrative subordination. --John Hostage 09:18, 11 July 2012 (PDT)
Ontario. Royal Commission on Education in Ontario (220.127.116.11, Type 1)
Why not Ontario. Royal Commission on Education? ("Omit from the subdivision the name or abbreviation of the name of the higher or related body in noun form unless the omission would result in a name that does not make sense.")
--John Hostage 14:31, 9 July 2012 (PDT)
Good question. What do others think?
--K. Randall, 7/10/12
I would say that here "in Ontario" is describing the scope of the commission, not identifying the higher body. We wouldn't truncate the name if the heading was Ontario. Royal Commission on Education in Northern Ontario. Or (I keep coming back in and adding to this comment) maybe the logic is that you're only told to omit the noun, leaving you here with Ontario. Royal Commission on Education in, which "does not make sense." --Robert J. Rendall 15:50, 10 July 2012 (PDT)
That can't be it. Cultural Development Authority of King County becomes King County (Wash.). Cultural Development Authority. --John Hostage 09:18, 11 July 2012 (PDT)
Research & Advisory Services (184.108.40.206, Type 2)
new type 2: Research & Advisory Services should show "not" for contrast; what is this part of?
--John Hostage 14:31, 9 July 2012 (PDT)
There is no "Not" part of this example, because it is an independent body. There is no higher body under which it could be entered, and that is part of the point of the example. This example is a replacement for "Research and Training Institute", which had no justification in the NACO file. There is a NACO record for "Research and Training Institute (Hebrew Rehabilitation Center for Aged)" which is a subordinate body.
--K. Randall, 7/10/12
All these rules are about subordinate bodies and how to decide on the access point. If it's an independent body, there is no choice and no decision to make, so the example has no point. --John Hostage 15:23, 10 July 2012 (PDT)
Then "Human Resources Center" would also have to go. If anything, perhaps we should add explanations to these. I do think they are helpful to include, to show that not all "generic" or "subordinate-sounding" names are subordinate or related bodies. --K. Randall, 7/10/12
The example of Research and Training Institute example probably did refer to Research and Training Institute (Hebrew Rehabilitation Center for Aged). The example shows the name before the application of 22.214.171.124. Oddly, the Human Resources Center (an independent body) also had a Research and Training Institute, entered subordinately in the authority file. --John Hostage 09:18, 11 July 2012 (PDT)
Actually, the NACO heading for "Research and Training Institute" is "Human Resources Center (Albertson, N.Y.). Research and Training Institute", and directly contradicts the example in AACR2 24.13, Type 3. (Ironically, however, it does seem to follow the actual instructions in that rule.) The examples in AACR2 for "In case of doubt" don't make any sense to me. --K. Randall, 7/16/12
Stanford University. Archives (220.127.116.11)
why Stanford University. Archives? What type of subordinate body is it?
--John Hostage 14:31, 9 July 2012 (PDT)
This should be moved to 188.8.131.52, as:
- Stanford University Archives
--K. Randall, 7/10/12
Couldn't this be type 2, like United States. National Labor Relations Board. Library? --Robert J. Rendall 15:32, 10 July 2012 (PDT)
No, because in the NLRB case, the name is simply "Library". --K. Randall 7/10/12
United Methodist Church (U.S.). General Conference (184.108.40.206, Type 1)
General Conference of the United Methodist Church should be moved to type 13.
--John Hostage 14:31, 9 July 2012 (PDT)
Right, this should be moved to 126.96.36.199, Type 13.
--K. Randall, 7/10/12
Typos, etc.
p. 62: period misplaced in: St. John's College. (University of Oxford) Library --John Hostage 14:33, 9 July 2012 (PDT)
The typo is how it appears in RDA as published, and we noted it very early on. --K. Randall, 7/10/12

Is the show about nothing really the best sitcom of all time?
It is according to a new poll conducted by 60 Minutes and Vanity Fair, in which Americans voted Seinfeld as the top sitcom.
The NBC comedy based on the stand-up of Jerry Seinfeld amassed 22 percent of the vote, followed by The Honeymooners with 20 percent of the vote. Friends grabbed 16 percent to rank third, and Cheers was the top choice for 14 percent of voters.
Losties? Trekkies? Which TV show has the best fans? Vote now!
Arrested Development, The Mary Tyler Moore Show and 30 Rock garnered 7, 6 and 5 percent of the vote, respectively.
When asked in the same poll about which late-night host was most likely to make them laugh, 24 percent of voters went with Tonight Show host Jay Leno. Although Leno beat David Letterman (13 percent), Jimmy Fallon (12 percent) and Conan O'Brien (12 percent) - ouch! - among others, 23 percent of voters said "none of the above" when asked to choose between those hosts as well as Jimmy Kimmel and Craig Ferguson.
Kimmel received eight percent of the vote, while Ferguson retained four percent.

I ordered this product to have a more professional looking case for my IPAD. This product definitely fits the bill. It is compact and I like that I can also carry my debit/credit cards, and phone in this case. I like the writing pad that is included and found it easy to get replacement writing pads that fit this product.

Handy and efficient
By Well Loved Woman
from Jupiter, FL
I love that it is leather and has a professional look. It is not too large and the shoulder strap is a huge plus for me. The only thing I wish it had is a slot under the note pad so I could slip the inside cover of my date book into it. Other than that it is perfect for what I need it to be.
Husband loved this gift
By Beth
from Clarkston, MI
My husband thought it looked very professional . He was able to eliminate his IPad case and notebook, this combined both and took up less space. Con's, he found that it was a bit too bulky for home use.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Squares Recipe
Preheat oven to 350ºF [if you live above 5,000 feet, set your oven temp to 375 ºF]. Lightly oil or line with parchment a 10x13-inch baking pan.
Combine all the ingredients in a mixing bowl and beat by hand.
Enjoy sugary treats in moderation. Gluten-Free Goddess advises consuming no more than 2 tablespoons of sugar a day.
- Make these GF/CF with a dairy-free self-rising flour mix and dairy-free chips.
- If you do not have Pamela's try using another all-purpose leavened gluten-free baking and pancake mix; or substitute your own personal favorite g-free flour blend and add a teaspoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon of xanthan gum or guar gum.

Perfect fit!
I have a small waist and wider hips. I am also short so crop pants are usually an issue. These fit me perfectly, there is no gap in my waist and plenty of room for my butt. Also you can wash and dry and they will re stretch. They don't appear as though they have been washed either which I like. They are my absolute favorite and wish they came in more colors!

Great cropped jeans
These cropped jeans fit perfect!! I was a bit skeptical because I'm a pear shape and cropped jeans tend to hit right under my knee and accentuate that.... these hit mid calf and aren't skin tight around my calf so helps even me out without my calf through ankle area looking ridiculous skinny compared to the upper leg. I do wish they were a tad heavier as they're so stretchy they don't hold in my thighs as much as I'd like, but hey I could just skip desert tonight too, to help with that, ha. These fit true to size as most limited items, I ordered 6 and they fit! Can't ask for much more!

Most Perfect Pair of Denim Capris EVER
I bought these online without ever trying a pair of Limited pants or denims on before and they are the most comfortable, perfect fitting pair of denim capris I have ever purchased! I wish there were more colors available in my size because I would buy all of them!
June 5, 2013
Jeans are black not blue and dye comes off
I thought these jeans would look like regular dark jeans, however it turns out they are more like black/gray.. Also, the dye from the jeans has gotten on EVERYTHING. I tried washing and drying several times and nothing seems to help. My leather on my car seats are now stained!
May 30, 2013
These Capri's fit fantastic and are so comfortable. I went back bought 2 more pairs!
May 19, 2013
I absolutely love these denim capris. Sits perfectly below the waist. They are not too low. They keep there shape after wearing. I love the dark color!!! Best purchase!!
May 16, 2013
Did not stretch and bag. Usually I wear a size 8 but I was able to wear a six. I would buy these again !
May 9, 2013
Great fitting Capri!
I really love these denim capris. They are comfortable, fit well, and the fabric is a softer denim. I will be purchasing a back-up pair before summer is really here. I have a feeling I'll be wearing these a lot!

Layered Compression Systems
Multi-layered graduated compression bandage systems are used primarily to treat Lymphedema as well as venous or stasis leg ulcers. Regardless of the number of layers, each is designed specifically to work together to provide continuous gradient pressure. (read more)
The first, or inner layer of a multi-layered graduated compression bandage system, generally consists of a "comfort" layer which provides padding to the skin and helps to absorb any wound exudate. Succeeding layers may include a light support bandage, outer compressive bandage and exterior cohesive bandage which helps hold the layers in place.
Chronic venous insufficiency is an advanced venous disease and is the most common cause of lower extremity ulceration in the United States. Compression therapy remains the primary form of treating and managing the disease, with the goal of helping to promote the healing of ulcers, and reducing edema and pain. Multi-layer bandaging can also be used for treatment and management of venous insufficiency and edema in cases where patients are unable to wear gradient compression hosiery.

Heat sealing films and foils efficiently seal microplates for standard, real-time, and digital PCR. These sealing solutions deliver reliable data by minimizing sample evaporation during thermal cycling.
Integrating the PX1 PCR Plate Sealer into the Thermal Cycling Workflow Helps Generate Highly Reproducible and Uniform PCR Data
Real-time PCR experiments using the PX1 PCR plate sealer in the workflow demonstrate highly uniform amplification curves. A, a SYBR® Green uniformity assay examined amplification uniformity across an entire 96-well plate sealed using the PX1 PCR plate sealer. The extremely low quantification cycle (Cq) standard deviation of all 96 wells (0.09 cycles) demonstrates exceptional experimental uniformity. B, the SYBR® Green uniformity melt curve analysis demonstrates a single, consistent melt peak across all wells, which indicates product specificity is maintained in plates sealed with the PX1 PCR plate sealer. RFU, relative fluorescence units.
The optically clear heat seal prevents sample evaporation that can lead to large Cq standard deviations. Five-color multiplex linearity test demonstrates highly reliable qPCR results. A–E, fluorescence data from a series of tenfold dilutions of plasmid DNA (108–102 copies) amplified using reporter dyes to monitor five targets. The standard curves of five multiplexed genes have an R2 >0.990. F, standard curves generated from data in A–E. Reaction efficiencies are between 90 and 105%. Cq, quantification cycle; RFU, relative fluorescence units.
Which heat seal is best for my PCR application? Use the Heat Sealing Films and Foils table to determine the seal that best suits your experimental needs.
How do I determine the best sealing time and temperature? Optimal sealing parameters vary according to the heat films and microplates used. We recommend sealing an empty plate using the guidelines found in Suggested Heat Sealing Parameters. After sealing, examine the entire plate for effective sealing and optimize sealing conditions if necessary.
Some of my wells are not fully sealed. What should I do? Sealing temperature and/or sealing time may be increased to help improve sealing performance. Use an empty plate to optimize seal conditions. See the instruction manual for additional details about seal optimization.
When should I use the sealing frame? The sealing frame helps secure the heat seal in place and prevents the film from moving during sealing. The sealing frame must be used for the permanent clear heat seal and the peelable foil heat seal.
What happens if I accidently place a seal upside down when sealing? The PX1 heated platen was designed with an easy to clean, nonstick surface. See the PX1™ PCR Plate Sealer Instruction Manual for directions on cleaning the heated platen. Ensure the PX1 sealer cools for at least 1 hour before cleaning.
Is it safe to leave the heat sealer on when unattended? Yes. The PX1 PCR plate sealer was designed for reliability and safety. The instrument has an adjustable auto-off feature that automatically shuts the heater off when not in use for a designated amount of time. Simply touch the screen and the instrument will automatically resume heating.
Can I reseal the same plate twice? A plate sealed with a peelable film may be resealed after peeling an existing film. However, resealing a plate for subsequent use in real-time PCR is not recommended. A plate sealed with a pierceable foil heat seal may also be resealed by sealing another pierceable foil heat seal directly on top. Note: only a single seal can be used in the QX100™ Droplet Digital™ PCR system workflow. Sealing parameters may need to be adjusted.
The current platen temperature is higher than the required sealing temperature. How can I reduce the time needed to reach sealing temperature? The heated platen cools passively. Opening the PX1 PCR plate sealer drawer can help accelerate the cooling process.
Can I use traditional adhesive or pressure-sensitive seals with the PX1 sealer? No. Our heat sealing films feature a special hot melt adhesive that effectively seals microplates when used with the PX1 sealer. The temperature and pressure delivered by the PX1 will not successfully seal a microplate when traditional adhesive and pressure-sensitive seals are used.

The Twenty-First Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act of 2010 (CVAA) authorizes the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to provide funding for local programs to distribute equipment to low-income individuals who are "deaf-blind" (see definition below). The FCC may use up to $10 million annually from the interstate Telecommunications Relay Service fund for this purpose.
Pilot Program
In 2011, the FCC established the National Deaf-Blind Equipment Distribution Program (NDBEDP) as a pilot program. The three-year pilot program began July 1, 2012, and will end June 30, 2015. The pilot program provides valuable information that the FCC will use to help develop and implement an effective and efficient permanent deaf-blind equipment distribution program.
How does the pilot program operate?
The FCC selected and certified one entity in each of the 50 states, plus the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands, to receive FCC support to distribute equipment to low-income individuals who are deaf-blind. The FCC allocated a minimum of $50,000 to each of the 53 certified programs, plus additional funding based on the size of each state's population. As a result, states with large populations were allocated larger amounts of funding than states with small populations.
The FCC also set aside $500,000 each year for the Perkins School for the Blind to coordinate outreach to promote this new equipment distribution program nationwide.
Who is eligible to receive equipment?
Under the CVAA, only low-income individuals who are deaf-blind are eligible to receive equipment. Applicants must provide verification of their status as low-income and deaf-blind.
The CVAA requires that the term "deaf-blind" has the same meaning given in the Helen Keller National Center Act. In general, the individual must have a certain vision loss and a hearing loss that, combined, cause extreme difficulty in attaining independence in daily life activities, achieving psychosocial adjustment, or obtaining a vocation (working).
The FCC defines "low income" to mean not more than 400% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines, as indicated in the following chart:
2015 Federal Poverty Guidelines | |||
Number of persons in family/household | 400%
for everywhere, except Alaska and Hawaii |
400% for Alaska |
400% for Hawaii |
1 | $47,080 | $58,880 | $54,200 |
2 | 63,720 | 79,680 | 73,320 |
3 | 80,360 | 100,480 | 92,440 |
4 | 97,000 | 121,280 | 111,560 |
5 | 113,640 | 142,080 | 130,690 |
6 | 130,280 | 162,880 | 149,800 |
7 | 146,920 | 183,680 | 168,920 |
8 | 163,560 | 204,480 | 188,040 |
For each additional person, add | $16,640 | $20,800 | $19,120 |
Source: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services |
What kind of equipment can be distributed?
The equipment distributed must be designed to make telecommunications (such as wireline and wireless telephone communication), advanced communications (such as Internet-based voice communication, e-mail, instant messaging and interoperable video conferencing services), and access to the Internet (including information services) accessible. The equipment distributed may be hardware, software or applications, separate or in combination, mainstream or specialized. The equipment must meet the needs of the deaf-blind individual to achieve access. Certified programs may also provide equipment warranties, maintenance, and repairs for such equipment depending on available funding.
Besides distributing equipment, what will the NDBEDP certified programs do?
Certified programs will inform their communities about this new program to distribute equipment to low-income residents in their states who are deaf-blind. They will verify that applicants are eligible to receive equipment. They will assess each applicant's communications equipment needs to select appropriate equipment to meet those needs. They may also help install and provide training for the equipment distributed.
How do I find the certified program that serves my state?
Information about how to find the NDBEDP certified program in your state is available on the FCC website, by calling 1-888-CALL-FCC (1-888-225-5322) voice or 1-888-TELL-FCC (1-888-835-5322) TTY, or by sending an email to email@example.com.
How can I help the NDBEDP be successful?
- Tell people about the program.
- Tell the FCC how the NDBEDP helped you or someone you know.
- Tell the FCC how the program can be improved.
- Tell the FCC about new types of technologies that should be included for distribution.
You may also file an informal complaint with the FCC if you think someone has violated the NDBEDP rules. Informal complaints may be filed by calling 1-888-CALL-FCC (1-888-225-5322) voice or 1-888-TELL-FCC (1-888-835-5322) TTY; faxing 1-866-418-0232, or by writing to:
