    Although the Mains Farm majority\u27s conclusion that a group home for the disabled is neither a single-family dwelling nor a residential use is certainly questionable,7 this Note is neither intended as an addition to the what is a family? definitional debate, nor as a proposal that the issues decided in Mains Farm be re-litigated. Instead, this Note will: (1) analyze the Mains Farm controversy from the often ignored perspective of disabled individuals who benefit from community based group homes, and (2) present applicable state and federal law by which group homes threatened with judicial attack in the wake of the Mains Farm ruling can defend themselves. Specifically, Section I of this Note will present an overview of both the benefits of group homes for the disabled and the various ways in which resistant NIMBY neighbors and municipalities have attempted to banish them. Section II will analyze the Mains Farm decision. Section III will explore evidence of an overriding public policy favoring the establishment of group homes for the disabled in Washington State. Section IV will analyze the neighbors\u27 conduct in Mains Farm under both the federal Fair Housing Act and Washington\u27s Law Against Discrimination. Ultimately, this Note will conclude that future group home defenders should not concentrate on re-litigating the issues decided in Mains Farm. Instead, their focus should be on seeking an authoritative judicial determination that neighbors who attempt to use a single family dwelling/residential use restrictive covenant to banish group homes for the disabled from their communities are violating both state and federal fair housing laws

    This reports on a project to extend the capabilities of a Virtual Research Center (VRC) for NASA's Advanced Concepts Office. The work was performed as part of NASA's 1995 Summer Faculty Fellowship program and involved the development of a prototype component of the VRC - a database system that provides data creation and access services within a room of the VRC. In support of VRC development, NASA has assembled a laboratory containing the variety of equipment expected to be used by scientists within the VRC. This laboratory consists of the major hardware platforms, SUN, Intel, and Motorola processors and their most common operating systems UNIX, Windows NT, Windows for Workgroups, and Macintosh. The SPARC 20 runs SUN Solaris 2.4, an Intel Pentium runs Windows NT and is installed on a different network from the other machines in the laboratory, a Pentium PC runs Windows for Workgroups, two Intel 386 machines run Windows 3.1, and finally, a PowerMacintosh and a Macintosh IIsi run MacOS
