  MORC - 50 Years of Continuous Racing
MORC is an acronym for the Midget Ocean Racing Club, a group of sailors dedicated to the ideal that different types of boats can be fairly raced using a measurement rule - the MORC rule - to handicap, and that differences in boat size should be minimal to help ensure fair racing.
Founded in 1954, MORC is the oldest currently active measurement rule in North America.
Unique to MORC is the fact that members are in control of the Club, and must approve any changes to club policies or the MORC Rating Rule.

 Center's services shrinking
Now, MORC is coping with approximately $5 million in debt that the authority wants eliminated by Sept. 30, when MORC's current 2-year contract expires.
MORC assumed the authority's services for people with developmental disabilities, along with a debt accrued after years of mismanagement by a previous administration at the authority, Torrone said.
MORC is hoping to have the Sept. 30 deadline extended.

 New gene family defined by MORC, a nuclear protein required for mouse spermatogenesis -- Inoue et al. 8 (7): 1201 -- ...
To test whether Morc is also expressed in somatic cells of the testis, we examined mice that lacked germ cells due to either the recessive atrichosis (at) mutation (16) or the XX,Sxr sex-reversal mutation (17).
The relatively low overall identity between human and mouse MORC proteins (66%) is attributable to the less conserved C-terminal region, but MORC conservation is nevertheless comparable with that of some other nuclear proteins, such as the orphan nuclear receptor DAX1 (65%) (18,19) or the meiosis-specific synaptonemal complex protein 1 (72%) (20,21).
The punctate staining pattern of transfected MORC suggests that the protein may be part of a large nuclear complex such as the DNA `repairosome' (25).

 Mental health cuts required
But Allen said those who likely will be affected by the cuts have been getting more support than they would usually get because their services "weren't closely scrutinized in the past." He said the cuts likely will result in clients sharing transportation and housing, instead of living alone.
MORC has a 2-year, $211.6-million contract with the county to serve people with developmental disabilities, MacCormack said.
Allen said he is happy with the progress MORC has made, and the authority may be willing to extend the budget reduction deadline if MORC is meeting its plan's goals.

 News Release from UT Southwestern: Newly discovered gene family may regulate important biological processes   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Because they know how the mutation affects male reproduction and they have now found Morc, they believe that other genes in the family may perform a similar function in cell division of somatic cells, or mitosis, as Morc does in meiosis.
"Morc family members may serve a general role in the regulation of cell division in all tissues and may malfunction in cancer cells," Watson said.
The scientists are investigating when Morc is expressed in the mouse embryo.
