Computer Research Corporation. The Computer Research Corporation (CRC) was an early developer of minicomputers. It was founded on July 16, 1950.

The founding owners of CRC were Floyd Steele, Donald Eckdahl, Hrant (Harold) Sarkinssian, Richard Sprague, and Irving S. Reed. With the exception of Reed, all members of the CRC had been on the design team for the MADDIDA, a special-purpose digital computer developed from 1946 to 1949 for Northrop. Realizing that a problem-oriented language (POL) could be used to make a general-purpose computer function as a differential analyzer, the MADDIDA design team left Northrup in 1950 to focus on designing general-purpose computers, leading to them to found the CRC. After developing the Cadac, an early minicomputer, the CRC was sold to National Cash Register (NCR) in February 1953, launching NCR into the digital computing business.

Carbon Neutral Cities Alliance. The Carbon Neutral Cities Alliance (CNCA or “Alliance”) is a collaboration of leading global cities working to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 80% or more by 2050 or sooner (“80x50”) — the most aggressive greenhouse gas reduction targets undertaken by any cities across the globe. The Alliance aims to address what it will take for leading international cities to achieve these deep emissions reductions and how they can work together to meet their respective goals more efficiently and effectively.

Background 
The Alliance was born in Copenhagen in June 2014 at an organizing meeting of the following 17 cities:
 Berlin, Germany
 Boulder CO, USA
 Boston MA, USA
 Copenhagen, Denmark
 London, United Kingdom
 Melbourne, Australia
 Minneapolis MN, USA
 New York City NY, USA
 Oslo, Norway
 Portland OR, USA
 San Francisco CA, USA
 Seattle WA, USA
 Stockholm, Sweden
 Sydney, Australia
 Vancouver BC, Canada
 Washington DC, USA
 Yokohama, Japan
Founding cities came together to share lessons in planning for and implementing deep carbon reductions and agreed upon opportunities to accelerate best practices through collaboration in the Alliance’s first year, including:
 Developing Carbon neutrality Planning Standards – Developing approaches, analysis, and tools to support carbon neutrality; standardizing measurement and verification methodologies for tracking progress.
 Advancing “Transformative Change” in Key Urban Sectors – Sharing and implementing best practices for achieving “transformative” deep carbon reduction strategies in urban transportation, energy use, and waste systems.
 Advocating for Policy Change – Identifying and advocating for policies at the state, regional, and federal levels to reduce emission sources not controlled directly by cities and engaging with other external stakeholders who are critical to cities’ success.
 Speaking with a Common Voice – Helping CNCA cities demonstrate their leadership and communicate with a common voice.
 Creating a CNCA “Innovation Fund” – Investing in high-potential, city-led projects that develop, test, implement, and amplify deep de-carbonization strategies and practices (currently funded at $500,000).
 Increasing Alliance Impact – Sharing Alliance learnings with a broader audience to benefit the “next wave” of cities striving for carbon neutrality.

Staff, partners and funding 
The Alliance is staffed by the Urban Sustainability Directors Network (USDN) in partnership with the Innovation Network for Communities (INC) and C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group (C40), and is supported by The Kresge Foundation, Barr Foundation, Summit Foundation, Rockefeller Brothers Fund, V. Kann Rasmussen Foundation, MacArthur Foundation, and Bullitt Foundation.

Architectural coatings. Architectural coatings or paints are paints and other coatings used to paint the exteriors and interiors of buildings, often called or external masonry coatings. Clear varnishes and lacquers are generally excluded.  Such products are usually designated for specific purposes such as roof coatings, wall paints, or deck finishes. Coatings are eco-friendly building material that increases the efficiency of energy used and reduces impact on human well-being and the environment. The coatings are typically applied with brushes, rollers or sprayers.

Wall coatings come in a variety of types, some of which can be applied by amateurs and DIYers without specialized training or equipment. For example, simple paint or primers can often be applied using brushes or rollers, and many people successfully complete such projects themselves. Most masonry surfaces can be treated an exterior wall coating, such as render, pebbledash, stone, stucco or brick. Most coatings are designed to be microporous in nature, allowing captive moisture within the wall to evaporate outside, whilst not allowing the passage of water to be drawn inside the building, thus largely providing a secondary feature apart from decoration, and that is to weatherproof a wall, and to stop damp forming inside the building. These coatings are intended for on-site application and do not include "factory-applied coatings for building products such as vinyl siding or aluminium window frames [that] may ultimately be used for architectural end-uses".

Passerelle de la Paix. The  (, "skyway of peace") is a pedestrian and bicycle bridge over the Rhône river in Lyon, France. It connects the 6th arrondissement of Lyon and the commune of Caluire-et-Cuire.

Grand Lyon commissioned the construction of a bridge between Cité Internationale and Place Basse Demonchy in Parc Saint-Clair in Caluire-et-Cuire. The project was first conceived in 1994, but construction was held up by a legal dispute over who would be the primary contractor. The project was revived in 2009 with Austrian architect Dietmar Feichtinger creating the design for the bridge. The construction of the bridge began in March 2012. The bridge was named "Passerelle de la Paix" on 22 October 2012 to represent intercultural harmony, because the neighbourhood of Saint-Clair has a large immigrant population. Construction concluded on 13 December 2013 and opened to the public on 17 March 2014. The bridge has two sections: a  long upper section for pedestrians and bicycles, and a  long lower section uniquely for pedestrians.

JS Murasame. is the lead vessel of the s of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF).

JS Murasame was authorized under the Medium-term Defense Buildup Plan of 1991, and was built by IHI Marine United shipyards in Tokyo. She was laid down on 18 August 1993, launched on 23 August 1994. She was commissioned into service on 12 March 1996. and was assigned to the JMSDF Escort Flotilla 1 based at Yokosuka.

Design
The hull design was completely renovated from first-generation destroyers. In addition to increasing the size in order to reduce the underwater radiation noise, both the superstructure and hull were inclined to reduce the radar cross-section. However, there is no angled tripod mainmast like the one of the American  because of the heavy weather of the Sea of Japan in winter. The aft was designed like a "mini-Oranda-zaka" as with the  to avoid interference between helicopters and mooring devices. Destroyers built under the First Defense Build-up Plan, including the former , adopted a unique long forecastle style called "Oranda-zaka".

The engine arrangement is COGAG like in the Asagiri class, but a pair of engines were updated to Spey SM1C. The remaining pair were replaced by LM2500, same as in the Kongō class.

Service

Murasame was a participant in the 1998, 2000 and 2003 RIMPAC naval exercises. On 13 October 2002 she also served as the lead ship in the international naval review celebrating the 50th anniversary of the establishment of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force. Murasame was dispatched on 16 February 2004, along with the transport Osumi, as part of the supporting force for the Japanese Iraq Reconstruction and Support Group. In 2005, Murasame participated in the international naval review celebrating the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar.

On 24 January 2008, together with the fleet oiler Oume, Murasame was sent to the Indian Ocean to provide refueling and logistics support for Allied forces in Operation Enduring Freedom. She arrived on station on 21 February, and returned to Yokosuka on 4 June. On 10 May 2010, Murasame, along with the destroyer , was dispatched to the coast of Somalia to participate in anti-piracy escort operations. From 5 June to 16 September she undertook 34 sorties, and returned to Japan on 15 October 2010.

On 21 January 2012 Murasame was dispatched to Aden, Yemen together with her sister ship , to resume anti-piracy escort operations off the coast of Somalia. The context for this extended deployment off the Horn of Africa was the "Law on the Penalization of Acts of Piracy and Measures Against Acts of Piracy (Anti-Piracy Measures Law)". She completed 188 sorties, including a number of joint operations with the Indian Navy and returned to Yokosuka on 5 July 2012. She remains currently assigned to JMSDF Escort Flotilla 1.

JS Murasame made a port call at Kochi, India from 25 to 27 October 2024.
