The Defense Acquisition Board (DAB) is the senior advisory board for defense acquisitions in the Department of Defense of the United States of America.
 The board is chaired by the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics and includes the Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Service Secretaries (Secretary of the Army, Secretary of the Navy & Secretary of the Air Force), and a number of Under Secretaries of Defense.
 The DAB plays an important role in the Defense Acquisition System.
 Members of this board are responsible for approving the Major Defense Acquisition Programs (MDAPs) and serve as the most important executive review of expensive acquisition projects that would have potentially large impacts on how wars are fought — things like new tanks, fighter aircraft, or C3 systems.

Leonard Cohen was a Canadian singer-songwriter and poet who was active in music from 1967 until his death in 2016.
 Cohen released 14 studio albums and eight live albums during the course of a recording career lasting almost 50 years, throughout which he remained an active poet.
 His entire catalogue is available on Columbia Records.
 His 1967 debut "Songs of Leonard Cohen" earned an RIAA gold record; he followed up with three more highly acclaimed albums: "Songs from a Room" (1969), "Songs of Love and Hate" (1971) and "New Skin for the Old Ceremony" (1974), before allowing Phil Spector to produce "Death of a Ladies' Man" for Warner Bros.
 Records in 1977.
 Cohen returned to Columbia in 1979 for "Recent Songs", but the label declined to release his next album, "Various Positions" (1984) in the US, leaving it to American shops to import it from CBS Canada.
 In 1988, Columbia got behind Cohen again and gave full support to "I'm Your Man", which brought his career to new heights, and Cohen followed it with 1992's "The Future".
 Cohen then took a nine-year hiatus, and returned with "Ten New Songs" in 2001, which he made with Sharon Robinson, following this with "Dear Heather" (2004).
 In 2008 Cohen began touring for the first time in 15 years and, as well as the release of several live albums, he released "Old Ideas" (2012), which peaked at number three on the "Billboard" 200 albums chart.
 This was the highest ranking ever for a Leonard Cohen album, and it became his first to top the Canadian Albums Chart, a feat he repeated with his followup, "Popular Problems", released in 2014.
 His live albums included "Live Songs" (1973), "" (1994), "Live in London" (2009), "Songs from the Road" (2010), from his 2008–2009 world tour, and "Live at the Isle of Wight 1970" (2009).
