# Institut d'Émission des États du Cambodge, du Laos et du Viet-nam

The Institut d'Émission des États du Cambodge, du Laos et du Viet-nam (lit. '[note-]issuance authority of the states of Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam'), also known as the Institut d'Émission des États Associés, was a short-lived currency board operating in French Indochina in 1952–1954.

## Overview

The institute was established by the French authorities after they decided to phase out the note-issuing privilege of Banque de l'Indochine in French Indochina. It was first envisaged at the French-Vietnamese Dalat conference of 1946, and enabled by legislation in 1948 that was however only implemented three years later. The institute was eventually established in December 1951 and started operations on 1 January 1952. While its seat was legally established in Phnom Penh, the building of a proper head office there was delayed, and in practice the institute was run from Saigon. The currency it issued, the French Indochinese piastre, was popularly known as the "Bao Dai piastre" with reference to Bảo Đại, by then Vietnam's Chief of State, whose portrait was featured on the institute's banknotes.$^{:126}$
The institute was ostensibly governed jointly by France, Cambodia, Laos and the State of Vietnam, but it remained practically controlled by France. It subcontracted much of its operations, including banknote printing, to the still-powerful Banque de l'Indochine. It opened offices in Paris, Phnom Penh and Saigon in 1952, and in Vientiane in 1953. But it soon found itself overrun by events, namely the end of the protectorates in Cambodia and Laos in 1953 and the 1954 Geneva Conference that ended the First Indochina War.
On 1 January 1955, in application of a quadripartite agreement signed only three days earlier in Paris, the role of the Institut d'Émission was taken over by the National Bank of Cambodia in the Kingdom of Cambodia, the National Bank of Laos in the Kingdom of Laos, and the National Bank of Vietnam in the State of Vietnam, respectively issuing the Cambodian riel, Lao kip, and South Vietnamese đồng. The Institute simultaneously ceased operations and was liquidated a few days later.

## Leadership

The institute's chairman (French: Président) throughout its brief existence was former French Resistance leader Gaston Cusin [fr].
# Mercantile agency

Mercantile agencies, or commercial agencies, are organizations that are designed to collect, record, and distribute to regular clients information relative to the standing of commercial firms. They thus act as a sort of clearing house of information on customers' reliability.
In Great Britain and other some European countries, trade protective societies composed of merchants and tradesmen have been formed for the promotion of trade; their members exchange information regarding the standing of business houses. The societies had their origin in the associations formed in the mid-18th century for the purpose of disseminating information regarding bankruptcies, assignments and bills of sale.
The mercantile agency in the United States is a much more comprehensive organization and came into existence after the financial crisis of 1837. Trade in the United States had become scattered over a wide territory, communications were slow, and town merchants lacked adequate information as to the standing of many businessmen seeking credit. The severity of the collapse of 1837 was partly caused by to the insufficiency of that information. New York City merchants had suffered so severely that they were determined to organize a headquarters where reports regarding the standing of customers could be exchanged. Lewis Tappan (1788–1873), the founder of the Journal of Commerce (1828) and a prominent abolitionist leader, undertook the work by establishing there in 1841 the Mercantile Agency, later Dun & Bradstreet Corporation, the first organization of its kind. The system has been developed and extended since then.

* Joe Penny as Tiny

* Christopher Atkins as PC Sid Edwards

## Reception

Vince Leo from Qwipster's Movie Reviews gave the film one and a half out of five stars. He was critical about the movie and failed to find any good aspect in its production. He stated: "Unless you are a young child who is obsessed with unicorns, there is just nothing here at all to recommend. The Little Unicorn is as derivative as they come, with an undercurrent of ugliness that seems out-of-place in what should be a heartwarming tale. It's dreadfully boring and noisy, and about the longest 80 minutes you could spend doing just about anything. Writer-director Paul Matthews followed this up with another similar film, The Last Leprechaun, with much of the same cast. I'll probably never review it, since I've already dubbed Unicorn with the alternate title, 'THE LAST PAUL MATTHEWS FILM I'LL EVER SEE.'"
In 2017, RiffTrax released a downloadable version of The Little Unicorn with a comedic commentary track.

GameSpot's Tahsin Shamma wrote, "this game may be Gauntlet, but Gauntlet is still a lot of fun." GameRevolution called it "a nice update to a classic game [that] understands its limits and accepts its fate with wry humor." Next Generation wrote, "does the game offer anything new? Not really. But if you want to see how the pre-Pentium crowd lived, Get Medieval offers a pleasurable peek at the arcade arenas of the past, complete with chuckles."

# Gown

A gown, from the Saxon word, gunna, is a usually loose outer garment from knee-to-full-length worn by people of both sexes in Europe from the Early Middle Ages to the 17th century, and continuing today in certain professions; later, the term gown was applied to any full-length woman's garment consisting of a bodice and an attached skirt. A long, loosely fitted gown called a Banyan was worn by men in the 18th century as an informal coat.
The gowns worn today by academics, judges, and some clergy derive directly from the everyday garments worn by their medieval predecessors, formalised into a uniform in the course of the 16th and 17th centuries.

## Terminology

A modern-day gown refers to several types of garments. It can refer to a dress, especially a formal or fancy dress. It may also refer to a nightgown or a dressing gown. In academia, and other traditional areas, such as the legal world, gowns are also worn on various formal or ceremonial occasions.

## History

The gunna was worn by Anglo-Saxon women and consisted of a long, loose outer garment. The gunna was also called a cote, surcoat, or robe.
Gowns were worn by students attending early European universities in the 12th and 13th centuries. The gowns, and the hoods that accompanied them, would indicate their status. From the 14th to the 17th centuries, the term "gown" was used to describe any long, loose, robe-like garment.
In the 1500s in Italy, a gown was known as a camora or by regional names in various locations. The look of the camora changed over time, starting out with a high waist and low neckline at the beginning of the century and gradually becoming low-waisted and high-necked by the end. Italian women also wore an overgown called a vestito or a roba. In turn, these might be covered by a robone which was lined with fabrics or furs for warmth.
By the late 16th century, gowns were no longer in style in Italy except where they were worn to denote a professional station, such as a banker or priest.
In the 17th century, women's gowns in the American colonies included trimming around the neck and down the bodice, or in the case of an open gown, down front edges from hem to neck. Gowns may also have borders of silk, ribbons, and other decorations. Women in the American colonies wore short gowns as working clothing and informal clothing during the 18th century. The gowns were t-shaped and had side godets for additional volume.
