Reply and Fifth Request
Robert M. Clarke reply, subject " RE: Kim will resend the 1099s"
My address remains same as on you records since July 2003.
"She", I suppose, means Ms. Hedgpeth; if a payee asks for MMLLC 2003 proof
of income, whether ANY ONE has sent them, then IT IS OBVIOUS that payee is
asking for same documentation. I understand where Ms. Hedgpeth is coming
from and I don't blame her: you are grating on every one's last nerve
UNNECESSARILY. Ms. Hedgpeth also understands that this is YOUR problem, as
I do.
For the record, as of this writing, I have not received said mentioned 2003
proof since my multiple requests have been sent to you. Sophina Aryvz

working with researchers to improve community-based health care. Computer Manufacturers Get Low Grades on Recycling Computer makers' environmental programs generally stink, though U.S.
companies -- particularly Dell and Hewlett-Packard -- are better than most,
says an annual report released yesterday by the Silicon Valley Toxics
Coalition, an enviro group based in San Jose, Calif. No company is
recycling more than 2 percent of its products -- products chock-full of
lead, polyvinyl chloride, mercury, and other hazardous materials -- a
statistic which coalition director Ted Smith called "pathetic." Coalition
researchers singled out Dell for particular praise. The company, which
received terrible scores on last year's report, has stopped using prison
labor to recycle products and launched a new recycling campaign. A number
of states are considering bills that would make manufacturers responsible,
to some extent at least, for electronics recycling. straight to the source: MSNBC, Associated Press, 20 May 2004

collaboration with the National Institute for Literacy with a generous
grant from the Metropolitan Life Foundation, is one resource guide for
the health and literacy fields. This guide includes literacy curricula,
student-generated materials, and websites commonly used by literacy
educators. The Compendium is meant to encourage teachers and health
educators to think about ways to disseminate and make known to others the
resources they find valuable and to inspire people to create new
materials, as gaps in the Compendium may represent gaps in information
currently available in the field. You can find this document at:

Health Literacy: A Prescription to End Confusion is a report from the
Institute of Medicine which defines health literacy as "the degree to which
individuals have the capacity to obtain, process, and understand basic
health information and services needed to make appropriate health
decisions." This report examines the body of knowledge in this emerging
field and recommends actions to promote a health literate society. The
entire report is available:

pounds a year. What to do with all that doo? Dairy farmer Albert Straus
of Marin County, Calif., puts it in a big covered lagoon, where it
decomposes and generates tons of methane gas, which he captures and uses to
power his farm, his creamery, and his electric car. In California, where
1,950 commercial dairies house some 2 million excreting bovines, the state
energy commission recently allocated $10 million in matching funds to
encourage farmers to build methane digesters, and a 2003 state law paved
the way for utilities to set up "net metering" for the farmers, which makes
it possible for them to reduce or erase their electric bills. Not only
will Straus save some $5,000 to $6,000 a month in energy costs, he is
preventing tons of methane (a greenhouse gas 21 times more potent than
carbon dioxide) from drifting into the atmosphere and organic pollutants
from contaminating water sources. Plus, he now has a built-in, renewable
source of jokes. straight to the source: San Francisco Chronicle, Maria Alicia Guara, 14

Visibility + Competence + Word of Mouth = REPUTATION Getting Slightly Famous in print media means reaching a larger audience,
