NWS Input to NOAA's Weekly Report - September 5, 2002 HOT ISSUES I. KEY DEPARTMENT NEWS The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA's) National Weather Service (NWS) To Host Cooperative Observing Program (COOP) Partners' Forum. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA's) National Weather Service (NWS) Partners with Dow Corning and Emergency Management Agency to Give Away 70 NOAA Weather Radios. NOAA's NWS Forecast Office in Wilmington, OH, recently partnered with Dow Corning, Carroll County Emergency Management, and the Kentucky State Emergency Management Office to give away 70 new NOAA weather radios. Dow Corning bought 70 NOAA weather radios and distributed them to hospitals, schools, nursing homes, day care centers, churches, fire departments, and government buildings in the area. The mayor, a county judge, the local police chief, NWS personnel, and Dow Corning employees went through the community in small groups distributing the radios along with NWS pamphlets. Each organization that received a radio was educated on how to use the radio, the timely information it would provide, and how to respond to warnings issued.

NWS Input to NOAA's Weekly Report - July 8, 2004 HOT ISSUES I. KEY DEPARTMENT NEWS The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA's) National Weather Service (NWS) Forecast Office in Spokane, WA, to Present Holm Award. All of the following italicized items will appear in the internal NWS version of the weekly report ONLY. They will not be forwarded to NOAA. NOAA's National Weather Service (NWS) Dispatches Incident Meteorologists (IMETs) to Alaska Fires. As of 8:00 a.m. ADT on July 8, 2004, 2.1 million acres have burned in Alaska since June 13-14, when a record setting number of lightning strikes affected much of the interior of Alaska. There are currently 73 active fires, with a total of 1,682 personnel spread among 20 of those fires. Two NWS IMETs and one IMET trainee have been dispatched to Alaska. NWS IMETs assist in efforts to combat wildfires that rage annually across the Nation. IMETs are a small group of experienced fire weather forecasters (54 certified nationwide) who are sent to locations throughout the U.S. to support wildfire operations and help support the safety of the fire fighters. Another NWS IMET will likely be dispatched early next week. Weather conditions for the remainder of the week indicate dryer and warmer weather with a potential for new fire starts from lightning strikes later this week.

2000-2001 Undergraduate Catalog Introduction to University of Maryland University College SPECIAL FEATURES AND PROGRAMS Distance Learning Formats UMUC affords students the opportunity to earn a bachelor's degree in 15 curricula through courses offered at a distance. These courses are designed for students who require scheduling flexibility or are unable to commute to classroom sites. Courses are available online via the World Wide Web or through voice mail. Courses often require video- or audiotapes. UMUC offers primary specializations in accounting, behavioral and social sciences, business and management, communication studies, computer and information science, computer studies, English, environmental management, fire science, history, humanities, information systems management, management studies, paralegal studies, and psychology, through distance education formats. (Specializations in management and technology and management are being discontinued but may be completed at a distance by students who have already earned a substantial amount of credit in these areas.) Distance courses can also be used to earn a paralegal studies document, complete a second bachelor's degree, earn a certificate, or supplement classroom-based degree programs. Online students must meet certain minimum computing conditions. For more information on hardware or software requirements, or for other details, students may visit the UMUC distance education Web site at

Web Site Accessibility Lesson 1 - Arguments to Management for Accessible Sites These arguments were given by the 85 participants in the accessibility class offered to NETC and ACE members at Land-Grant Institutions (August/September 2000). Arguments for Making Your Site Universally Acceptable Thank you to everyone who sent arguments for making your site accessible. You will find that many of the arguments contain similar themes (phrased differently) that will be a great help to all of us when presenting information. Arguments Although a student with a disability at the University has resources available to him or her to acquire a reasonable accommodation (for any non-accessible materials on University web space) but what about disabled prospective students, visitors, and alumni? Their right to peruse University web space is guaranteed under ADA's public access guidelines. You mean you don't want to communicate with international colleagues? What about corporate partners who might be using web phones and web PDA's?
