WRDD (Ebensburg, Pennsylvania)
29072282-0
WRDD was an American radio station, licensed to Ebensburg, Pennsylvania. WRDD operated at the federally assigned frequency of 1580 kHz, with a maximum power of 1,000 watts. The station ceased operations in 2010, and had its license cancelled on March 20, 2013. History Beginnings as WEND WRDD first went on the air in 1961 under the ownership of the Allegheny Mountain Network under the call letters WEND, and operated from studios and offices along North Center Avenue in downtown Ebensburg. For most of its early years, the station operated as the simulcast sister station of WEND-FM (now WRKW). First sale In April 1972, WEND was spun off to new owners Francis Krug and Robert Civis, the former being WEND's general manager under previous ownership. However, the station was sold again on January 1, 1977, to Great American Wireless Signal Company, Incorporated. On August 10, 1982, WEND was spun off to Camcom Corporation, a company owned by Pittsburgh-based broadcasting engineer Roy J. Humphrey, and adopted the call letters WAJE. The station also moved from its longtime location on Center Avenue into the Cambria Savings Building, known today as the First United Federal Building.

By 1990, the station was sold another owner, Eagle Radio, and became WRDD. Headed by J. Richard Lee and his daughter Jane, Eagle operated WRDD (and co-owned WNCC in Barnesboro) as simulcast outlets of WCRO, as that was the only station of the three left that had an existing studio building. The three stations identified themselves as "Eagle Radio" and broadcast a series of time-brokered religious programs throughout the day. In 1996, Eagle Broadcasting put all three stations up for sale, after a series of competing religious-formatted FM stations and translators signed on the air. Both WRDD and WNCC were sold to Vernal Enterprises that year, with WCRO being spun off to the Greater Johnstown School District. The company, headed by Indiana County businessman Larry Schrecongost, moved the operations of WNCC back to Barnesboro, where it was joined by WRDD, and set up operations in a new studio. Both WNCC and WRDD simulcast a full-service format of oldies, news, and local sports, which Schrecongost had demonstrated success with on a station that he had acquired four years earlier, AM 1380 WTYM in Kittanning.

In 2004 WRDD split from its simulcast with WNCC and changed their format to business news/talk. WRDD was listed with the FCC as being silent on Friday, September 3, 2010, with reasons being technical in nature. The tower of WRDD was found in need of repair and was slated to be dismantled due to safety issues. The tower was slated to be demolished around Thanksgiving, with a replacement tower to be purchased with a return to the air in the summer of 2011. However, the FCC notified Vernal Enterprises in January 2012 that its license was being canceled after the station failed to return to the air by its ordered deadline of October 16, 2011, and no subsequent paperwork was filed by Vernal seeking an extension to its Special Temporary Authority application to remain silent. The tower along Tanner Road in Cambria Township was later demolished.

Acanthemblemaria maria
29072309-0
Acanthemblemaria maria, the secretary blenny, is a species of chaenopsid blenny found in shallow seas in the western central Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. It can reach a maximum length of TL. Description Acanthemblemaria maria is a slender, elongated fish with a maximum total length of but a more normal length is . The long, continuous dorsal fin has 29 to 40 rays, the flexible spines usually being more numerous than the soft rays. This fish is very variable in colouring; it has whitish vertical stripes or patches on a usually brown background, and an irregular speckling of tiny spots. The large eyes are surrounded by yellowish-green orbital rings and the cheeks often bear a spot of blue or brown above a white band. Over the eyes are spines and tufts of branching, supraorbital cirri.

29072309-1
Distribution and habitat Ecology Acanthemblemaria maria lives in a burrow, a hollow in the rock, a crevice, a hole in a colonial coral, an empty mollusc shell or an empty serpulid worm tube. It is often associated with small brain corals, sea fans, sea whips and sea urchins. It is an ambush predator, remaining concealed in its lair with only its head projecting, until a copepod or other small invertebrate prey approaches. At this stage, it darts out, grabs the prey and retreats into its home. The eggs are laid in the lair and are tended by the male, the female taking no part in their care. Status This is a common species with a wide distribution. No particular threats have been identified and there are no special conservation measures in place. The International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed the fish's conservation status as being of "least concern". Etymology The specific name is an eponym which honours James Erwin Böhlke's former secretary at the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia, Mary George, this is also acknowledged in the common name of secretary blenny.
Pre-tertiary-education accreditation
29072313-0
Pre-tertiary-education accreditation is a type of quality assurance process used in the United States under which services and operations of pre-tertiary schools and educational institutions or programs are evaluated by an external body to determine if applicable standards are met.
Pre-tertiary-education accreditation
29072313-1
History Federal context In the United States, educational accreditation has long been established as a peer review process coordinated by accreditation commissions and member institutions. With the creation of the U.S. Department of Education and under the terms of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, the U.S. Secretary of Education is required by law to publish a list of nationally recognized accrediting agencies for higher education. There is no similar federal government list of recognized accreditation agencies for primary and secondary schools. Public schools must adhere to criteria set by the state governments, and there is wide variation among the individual states in the requirements applied to non-public primary and secondary schools. There are six regional accreditors in the United States that have historically accredited (and therefore include among their membership) most elementary schools, junior high schools, middle schools, high schools, as well as nearly all public and private institutions of higher education that are academic in nature. Some states, including Missouri and North Dakota, accredit public secondary schools within their borders.
Anatomy of an Epidemic
29072318-0
Anatomy of an Epidemic: Magic Bullets, Psychiatric Drugs, and the Astonishing Rise of Mental Illness in America is a book by Robert Whitaker published in 2010 by Crown. Whitaker asks why the number of Americans who receive government disability for mental illness approximately doubled since 1987. In the book, Whitaker tries to answer that question and examines the long-term outcomes for the mentally ill in the U.S. Synopsis
Anatomy of an Epidemic
29072318-1
Magic bullets Psychiatric drugs Whitaker acknowledges that psychiatric medications do sometimes work but believes that they must be used in a "selective, cautious manner. It should be understood that they’re not fixing any chemical imbalances. And honestly, they should be used on a short-term basis."
Anatomy of an Epidemic
29072318-2
Whitaker suggests that the "wonder drug" glow around the second generation psychotropics has long since disappeared. He views the "hyping" of the top-selling atypical antipsychotics as "one of the more embarrassing episodes in psychiatry's history, as one government study after another failed to find that they were any better than the first-generation anti-psychotics." Whitaker speaks warmly of Open Dialogue, an organisation of care documented by professor psychologist Jaakko Seikkula at Keropudas Hospital in Tornio in Lapland where drugs are given to patients only on a limited basis. According to Whitaker, the district has the lowest per capita spending on mental health of all health districts in Finland. Children Whitaker sees that children are vulnerable to being prescribed a lifetime of drugs. As the author says, a psychiatrist and parents may give a child a "cocktail" to force him or her to behave. Then when this child reaches the age of eighteen, Whitaker says the child often becomes a disabled adult. Review of data and statistics Whitaker spent a year and a half researching for this book, and maintains a website listing some relevant studies.

Reception and media coverage A review by sleep researcher Dennis Rosen for The Boston Globe concludes that "although extensively researched and drawing upon hundreds of sources, the gaps in his theory remain too large for him to succeed in making a convincing argument", and compares Whitaker to Thabo Mbeki and AIDS denialism. The book received positive reviews from New Scientist, The Record, Time magazine, and Salon. Over a year after the book was published, Marcia Angell, former editor of The New England Journal of Medicine, published a two-part review of Whitaker's and other books in The New York Review of Books Whitaker presented his views at a psychiatric Grand Rounds at Massachusetts General Hospital on January 13, 2011, where his data and approach were critiqued by psychiatrist Andrew Nierenberg. Additional criticism has come from psychiatrist and author Daniel Carlat. Whitaker has responded to critics on his website. Awards In April 2011, Investigative Reporters and Editors (IRE) announced that the book had won its award as the best investigative journalism book of 2010 stating, "this book provides an in-depth exploration of medical studies and science and intersperses compelling anecdotal examples. In the end, Whitaker rejects the conventional wisdom of treatment of mental illness with drugs."

Metal Slug
2907238-0
is a Japanese multimedia franchise and run and gun video game series originally created by Nazca Corporation before merging with SNK in 1996 after the completion of the first game in the series. Spin-off games include a third-person shooter to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the series and a tower defense game for the mobile platform. While originally created for Neo-Geo arcade machines hardware (MVS) and the Neo-Geo home game consoles (AES) hardware, the original games have also been ported to other consoles and mobile platforms throughout the years, with several later games created for various other platforms. The games focus on the Peregrine Falcon Squad, a small group of soldiers who fight against a rebel army, aliens, zombies, mummies and various other forces intent on world domination. Over the years since its debut, The franchise developed a small, but passionate cult following due to its unique visuals and slapstick humor.
Metal Slug
2907238-1
Gameplay The player starts with only a simple semi-automatic handgun (Metal Slug 6 and 7 used a fully automatic handgun in place of the stock semi-auto first used in every game including a spin-off); as the game progresses, the player may pick up new weapons. The player can only use one weapon at a time. When a new weapon is found, it replaces the previous one. Similarly, when ammunition runs out, the player reverts to using the handgun, which has unlimited ammunition. A new system was implemented with Metal Slug 6 allowing players to carry and switch between the handgun and two other weapons. The player is also equipped with grenades which can be thrown at enemies to cause more damage, however, the number of grenades is limited and must be replenished periodically with ammunition found along the way.
Metal Slug
2907238-2
Over time, these specifications changed into any vehicle armed with a Vulcan cannon and a cannon variant suited to the role of the vehicle, and propelled suitably for that vehicle's environment. Some vehicles will only provide Vulcan cannons (which are more powerful than the handgun's bullets and are also unlimited), but neither special bombs (grenades must be used) nor armored protection to the player. In Metal Slug 6 (and the home version of Metal Slug X onwards), the playable character Tarma can lock the Vulcan cannons into one position and fire continuously.
Metal Slug
2907238-3
Games Plot Setting The first game's story involved the Peregrine Falcon (PF) Squad, a small but skilled team of soldiers serving under the Regular Army's special operations division, who fight against the army of General Donald Morden in order to prevent a massive coup d'état and the creation of a New World Order. Later games featured characters from the Sparrows Unit, which is under the control of the Regular Army's intelligence division. Beginning with Metal Slug 2, the PF Squad also battles an alien threat to Earth (the Mars People), as well as several other supernatural threats including yetis, zombies, ambulatory Venus flytraps, giant crabs, and mummies. These outlandish elements were removed from the fifth game to return to the feel of the original title. The fifth moved to the motif of modern guerrilla warfare, leaving only traces of the series' signature quirky humor and paranormal enemies, with the exception of the final boss. Metal Slug 6 returned to the plot of the first three installments, bringing back Morden's Rebel Army and the Mars People. Metal Slug 7 has less outlandish elements with the Mars People replaced by an alternative universe of Morden's Army with futuristic equipment and weapons. Characters

2907238-4
Heroes Enemies Allen O'Neil, a sub-boss, appears in all of the games except Metal Slug 5 and 6. He returns in Metal Slug 7. He uses an M60 machine gun, a knife, and grenades. Despite the fact that Allen is clearly killed at the conclusion of every encounter, the game makers have humorously brought him back in each new iteration of the series. Allen's son, Allen Jr., appears in Metal Slug Advance as the recruits' drill sergeant but later reveals himself as a double agent for the Rebel Army. He can be fought in the final mission as an optional boss.

Development The aspect of the Metal Slug series was to create a simple, but exciting side-scrolling shoot-em-up game with an easy control scheme (one joystick and three buttons). The same team that created Metal Slug for the Neo-Geo previously created several games for Irem which have very similar graphics and gameplays, such as GunForce (1991), In the Hunt (1993) and Gunforce 2 (1994). Some of the stock sound effects and sprites from Irem and The King of Fighters titles were used in the Metal Slug games. The music was composed by Takushi Hiyamuta (who is credited as Hiya!), a key member of the Nazca Corporation, which was acquired by SNK in 1996. The first 3 titles were developed by the Nazca team before SNK declared bankruptcy in October 2001, leading to the disbandment of the original team. Anticipating the collapse of SNK, the company Playmore was launched in August 2001, which became known as SNK Playmore in 2003, the year after Metal Slug 4 was released. Development on the series has since continued without the original staff, with Noise Factory handling 4, 5, 6, and 7.

Lee David Malia (born 4 June 1984) is a British guitarist and songwriter. He is best known as the lead guitarist of the British rock band Bring Me the Horizon. With the band, he has released seven studio albums. He cites influences from Gary Moore, Bon Iver and Metallica among many more. Early life Malia was born and raised in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England. He started learning guitar at a young age with the help of his parents who were also musicians. His dad who used to play guitar, left one in Malia's room but he never bothered to play it. However, three months after his dad got rid of the guitar, he began picking up an interest in playing music, so he bought his first guitar at Fox's Music after spending his Christmas money on Boxing Day. He attended Stocksbridge High School where he met Oliver Sykes. Malia played in a cover band where the first song they covered was "All the Small Things" by Blink-182. He also played in a Metallica tribute band before joining Bring Me the Horizon.

Career Outside from the band, Malia scored music for the 2017 horror thriller film Pyewacket, written and directed by Adam MacDonald. Malia was asked by MacDonald if he wanted to write the music for the film in which he did. Malia also felt that "writing a score was a lot less nerve-wracking than contributing to an album."

29072396-2
Equipment Musical styles and influences Malia listened to a lot of classic rock and metal growing up because of his dad, from the Eagles to Dire Straits and Metallica, which inspired him to start playing guitar. He credits "Enter Sandman" and "Master of Puppets" as the first few songs he wanted to learn when he first started out. He also credited Metallica on how he utilized his picking technique. When the band began playing heavier stuff, his style of playing was influenced by Cannibal Corpse, whose influence can be heard on their early albums such as Count Your Blessings and Suicide Season. Malia cites early influences from Metallica and Pantera, before drawing heavier influences from Cannibal Corpse. Other influences he has noted include Gary Moore, Bon Iver, Justin Vernon, Sigur Rós and Rage Against the Machine. Personal life In June 2017, he married long-time partner Deni Marie McGonigle.

The name "Prometea" is the feminine form of Prometeo ("Prometheus" in Greek). Science The horse is the seventh species to be cloned yet. Dr. Cesare Galli and others at the lab experimented with 841 reconstructed embryos; of the 14 viable embryos, four were implanted in surrogate mothers - only that of Prometea succeeded in being born. Prometea was born to her twin mother who her cloning cells originated from. Texas A&M University was also undertaking a horse-cloning project when the Italian team first succeeded. Horse cloning like Prometea could eliminate the problem of champion racing geldings. The Jockey Club of North America Thoroughbred Horses has proclaimed, however, that it will allow no cloned horse in their races. Although horses are not threatened with extinction or other major problem now, cloning may create less genetic diversity among horses by using these horses to breed. This increases the life time of one breeding set of genetics resulting in less variability in a population. In conservation biology, there are concerns related to the lack of genetic diversity that allows for continuation of the species through genetic variation.

Life Dhimitër S. Shuteriqi was born in Elbasan in a patriotic and intellectual family. His father was Simon Shuteriqi, participant in the Literary Congress of Monastir (1908) and Congress of Elbasan (1909), as well as one of the founders of the Shkolla Normale e Elbasanit. Shuteriqi attended the secondary school in Korça. He studied at the University of Grenoble and Lyon in France and taught school in Elbasan in 1942–1943. Shuteriqi began writing in the 1930s and was to become an influential literary historian during the socialist period. He was a member of parliament for many years, president of the Albanian League of Writers and Artists (ALWA) from 1950 to 1973, and a member of the Academy of Sciences from 1973. As chairman of the ALWA, he participated in the Albanian Congress of Orthography of 1972 and was one of the signatories. Shuteriqi is remembered for his research in literature, history, and folklore, in particular for his standard histories and anthologies of Albanian literature. Among his works are Shkrimet shqipe në vitet 1332–1850 (Albanian Writing in the Years 1332–1850), Tirana 1976, Autorë dhe tekste (Authors and Texts), Tirana 1977, and Historia e letërsisë shqiptare (History of Albanian Literature), Tirana 1983.

His two-volume Çlirimtarët (The Liberators), Tirana 1952 and 1955, the first post-World War II Albanian novel, painted a picture of the squalor and sufferings of the peasants before the "liberation", and also of the rise of class consciousness among them. It helped set the rather sluggish pace of socialist realism in the 1950s. Personal life and death In 1940, Shuteriqi met writer Mynever Fisco and they married in Elbasan. They had three children, two daughters and a son. As a two writers and intellectuals, they understood each other well in the path they had taken to continue life even though they were 9 years apart. Shuteriqi was the grandfather of Albanian politician and author Ben Blushi. He died in Tirana, on 22 July 2003, at the age of 87.

Silver oxide
2907246-0
Silver oxide is the chemical compound with the formula Ag2O. It is a fine black or dark brown powder that is used to prepare other silver compounds.
Silver oxide
2907246-1
Preparation 2 AgOH -> Ag2O + H2O (pK = 2.875) With suitably controlled conditions, this reaction can be used to prepare Ag2O powder with properties suitable for several uses including as a fine grained conductive paste filler. Structure and properties Ag2O features linear, two-coordinate Ag centers linked by tetrahedral oxides. It is isostructural with Cu2O. It "dissolves" in solvents that degrade it. It is slightly soluble in water due to the formation of the ion and possibly related hydrolysis products. It is soluble in ammonia solution, producing active compound of Tollens' reagent. A slurry of Ag2O is readily attacked by acids: Ag2O + 2 HX -> 2 AgX + H2O where HX = HF, HCl, HBr, HI, or CF3COOH. It will also react with solutions of alkali chlorides to precipitate silver chloride, leaving a solution of the corresponding alkali hydroxide. Despite the photosensitivity of many silver compounds, silver oxide is not photosensitive, although it readily decomposes at temperatures above 280 °C. Applications This oxide is used in silver-oxide batteries. In organic chemistry, silver oxide is used as a mild oxidizing agent. For example, it oxidizes aldehydes to carboxylic acids.

Biography In 1876 he became a tenured professor of chemical technology and headmaster of the chemical technical Laboratory at the polytechnic school in Karlsruhe (from 1885 the Technical University Karlsruhe). In 1887 he became a professor of chemistry and director of the Technical University Karlsruhe. In 1870 he and Adolph Emmerling, a student of Adolf von Baeyer, published a work in which the two first reported the formation of traces of indigo in a material not derived from indigo. Therefore, they have not found indigo “synthesis”, as often reported. Adolf von Baeyer succeeded in this in 1878, who also described in 1883 the correct structural formula.

Mackey–Arens theorem
29072525-0
The Mackey–Arens theorem is an important theorem in functional analysis that characterizes those locally convex vector topologies that have some given space of linear functionals as their continuous dual space. According to Narici (2011), this profound result is central to duality theory; a theory that is "the central part of the modern theory of topological vector spaces." Prerequisites Let be a vector space and let be a vector subspace of the algebraic dual of that separates points on . If is any other locally convex Hausdorff topological vector space topology on , then we say that is compatible with duality between and if when is equipped with , then it has as its continuous dual space. If we give the weak topology then is a Hausdorff locally convex topological vector space (TVS) and is compatible with duality between and (i.e. ). We can now ask the question: what are all of the locally convex Hausdorff TVS topologies that we can place on that are compatible with duality between and ? The answer to this question is called the Mackey–Arens theorem.

Arthur Hutchinson (murderer)
29072616-0
Arthur Hutchinson (born 19 February 1941) is an English convicted triple murderer. Crimes Hutchinson had already spent more than five years in prison for the attempted murder of his half brother, Dino, and had several prior convictions for sexual assault. On the morning of 28 September 1983 Hutchinson arrived at Selby Police Station after being arrested on suspicion of theft, burglary and rape. He asked to go to the toilet, and whilst there, he jumped out of a window in an attempt to escape and cut his knee on barbed wire. After three and a half weeks on the run, late on the night of 23 October 1983, Hutchinson broke into the home of Basil Laitner, 59, his 55-year-old wife Avril, and their 28-year-old son Richard via a patio window, and stabbed all three of them to death. He then raped their 18-year-old daughter Nicola at knife-point before fleeing. Just hours earlier, the family had hosted the wedding reception of their other daughter Suzanne at the house. It is believed that Hutchinson was planning to commit an armed robbery.
Arthur Hutchinson (murderer)
29072616-1
During his trial, on 11 September 1984, Hutchinson accused Mike Barron, then a reporter with the Sunday Mirror, of committing the murders. Hutchinson was found guilty of all three murders and the rape on 14 September 1984 after a four-hour deliberation, and sentenced to life imprisonment with a recommended minimum term of 18 years, which could have seen him released from prison in 2002 in the event of the Parole Board deciding that he was no longer a risk. After the conviction, the then Home Secretary, Leon Brittan issued Hutchinson with a whole life tariff. Appeals against sentence Hutchinson later appealed against the Home Secretary's ruling. His case was heard on 16 May 2008 at the High Court, nearly six years after the final say on minimum terms for life sentence prisoners was transferred from the Home Secretary to the High Court. His solicitors argued that a whole life tariff was a breach of his human rights. However, his appeal was rejected and the High Court agreed with the Home Secretary's ruling, upholding the life sentence.

29072616-2
On 13 July 2013, the European Court of Human Rights ruled that the whole life tariff was a breach of human rights. However, on 3 February 2015, Hutchinson lost an appeal in the European Court of Human Rights against his sentence, with the court's judges ruling that whole life tariffs were appropriate in certain cases, just as the High Court of England and Wales had 12 months earlier, on the condition that such sentences were reviewed within 25 years of the offender being sentenced. Within four months, however, it was reported that he was returning to the European Court of Human Rights for a fresh challenge against his sentence. Referral to Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights On 1 June 2015, Hutchinson's case was referred to the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights. The referral was made at the request of Hutchinson and his case was heard by the Grand Chamber on 21 October 2015. On 17 January 2017, Hutchinson again lost his case, with the court ruling that the UK had the right to impose whole life orders in appropriate circumstances.

Universal gateway
29072679-0
Typical applications Typical applications include: M2M Communications – machine to machine communications between machines from different vendors, typically using different communication protocols. This is often a requirement to optimize the performance of a production line, by effectively communicating machine states upstream and downstream of a piece of equipment. Machine idle times can trigger lower power operation. Inventory Levels can be more effectively managed on a per station basis, by knowing the upstream and downstream demands. M2E Communications – machine to enterprise communications is typically managed through database interactions. In this case, EATM technology is typically leveraged for data interoperability. However, many enterprise systems have real-time data interfaces. When real-time interfaces are involved, a universal gateway, with its ability to support many protocols simultaneously becomes the best choice. In all cases, communications can fall over many different transports, RS-232, RS-485, Ethernet, etc. Universal Gateways have the ability to communicate between protocols and over different transports simultaneously.

Bridging software – Linking software for connecting data from one device to data in another, one being the source of data and one being the destination. Typically data is transferred on data change, on a time basis, or based on process conditions – Run, Stop, etc. Versus protocol converters A universal gateway will typically offer all protocols on a computer appliance, for the benefit of the process engineer, giving them the opportunity to pick and choose one or more protocols, and change them over time, as the application needs demand. Protocol converters are typically designed with a single purpose, to convert protocol X to Y, and are not offering the level of configurability and flexibility of a universal gateway. New markets Special classes of universal gateway are addressing special needs. The Smart Grid is now prompting a new class of application where plant floor equipment is tied to electric utilities for the purpose of Demand and Response Control over power use. There are a wide variety of "Smart Grid" protocols that need to be connected to Automation Protocols via bridging software. These universal gateways typically support both wired and wireless connectivity.
Medium Support Vehicle System
29072682-0
The Medium Support Vehicle System (MSVS) is a designation for two types of medium capacity logistics trucks used by the Canadian Army: the Standard Military Pattern (SMP) for use by the regular forces and for overseas deployments, and the Militarized Commercial Off-The-Shelf (MilCOTS) trucks for use by the Army Reserve and for domestic purposes. The two MSVS designs were procured to replace the army's fleet of "Medium Logistics Vehicle, Wheeled" (MLVW) trucks built by Bombardier Inc. in 1982-83.
Medium Support Vehicle System
29072682-1
Procurement History By January 2004 the DND warned that the MLVWs were in such poor condition that they could catastrophically fail without warning. The trucks' poor condition resulted in annual operating costs of $49,500 per truck per 10 000 km, including $38,900 for spare parts alone. Extrapolated over the following ten years it was expected that keeping the MLVWs for another decade would cost over $1 billion. The Liberal government under Prime Minister Paul Martin pledged $2.5 billion in their 2005 defence budget toward a new generation of medium-sized logistics trucks, but no definitive spending announcement had been made by the 2006 Canadian federal election. After the Conservative government of Stephen Harper was elected their first budget included the MSVS program, which would see $1.1 billion spent on five phases of procurement:

The Institute of Therapy and Investigation into the Effects of Torture and State Violence () is a multidisciplinary non-governmental organisation based in Bolivia. It offers assistance to those affected directly or indirectly by torture and state violence through rehabilitative means.
Institute of Therapy and Investigation
29072696-1
Profile ITEI accompanies people affected by torture and state violence through a process of rehabilitation and extends this treatment to the families and communities of those involved. The organisation is committed to creating a collective consciousness surrounding the psychological effects of torture and state violence through training and investigation. Its stated mission is "a socio-political commitment to the creation of a just society that respects human dignity". The work of ITEI focuses on the following individuals, families and communities: those affected by state torture and/or violence political refugees those who have returned from exile survivors of massacres relatives of those killed, detained or disappeared those affected by racism ITEI works under the definition of torture as defined by the United Nations Convention Against Torture. Torture and State Violence under Bolivian Law On 12 April 1999 the Bolivian government signed the United Nations Convention Against Torture which recommended that "the Bolivian state incorporates into its penal legislation the definition of torture as it appears in the Convention, which considers it an offence and imposes sanctions proportionate to the severity of the crime".

Article 15 (I) and Article 114 (I) of the Constitution of Bolivia recognise the right to life and physical integrity, stating that no one will suffer torture or cruel, inhumane, degrading or humiliating treatment, thus guaranteeing full protection to all those within the Bolivian state. Article 295 of the current Bolivian Penal Code sanctions those responsible for acts of torture with a maximum prison sentence of 10 years for acts that result in the death of a tortured person. The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights noted significant developments in the defence of human rights in Bolivia as upheld in the new Constitution of 7 February 2009, especially in the recognition of the rights of Bolivia's indigenous population, which has been disproportionately affected by acts of state violence. However, the same report stressed that the laws against torture and state violence in Bolivia remain unsatisfactory, particularly regarding the follow-up to events in Sucre and Pando in 2008, despite increased awareness and sensitivity to these issues.

Various human rights organisations have raised concerns over the extent to which legislation against torture has actually been implemented. Amnesty International, for example, is concerned that the extradition requests filed with the US government regarding former Bolivian President Gonzalo Sánchez de Lozada and two former ministers, all implicated in the killings of demonstrators in El Alto in 2003, are still pending. Although legal proceedings were taken against the state officials held responsible for events in Pando 2008, both the UN and Amnesty International have expressed concerns about delays and complications in the judicial process, which has yet to be concluded. Work ITEI carries out projects in various areas, engaging not only in the investigation of acts of torture and state violence and the rehabilitation of those affected, but also in the prevention of such incidents. Sociotherapy The intervention branch of ITEI is divided into the following: Medical division, responsible for rehabilitation and prevention Psychotherapeutic division which provides psychological treatment Social and legal division which assists reintegration into society Care is offered to anyone affected by torture and state violence.

Investigation The investigative department works with those who have been subject to torture or other forms of state violence, or have been forced to "disappear" or go into exile. The department carries out surveys and interviews, records witness testimonies, launches investigations, publishes articles, provides legal consultation and hosts workshops, seminars and debates. After the events in Sucre in May 2008, for instance, ITEI initiated an emergency project to document what had occurred and produced a report on "The Return of Repression: Colonial Racism in Charcas", as well as launching a campaign in Europe to raise awareness of what had taken place. ITEI also demanded an investigation into the incident before the Inter-American Court of Human Rights. Training The training department has two principal aims: To organise workshops in human rights and educate those groups which tend to be discriminated against or are considered at risk To arrange courses in psychotraumatology for professionals who come into contact with individuals who have been exposed to violence. ITEI also runs workshops alongside other organisations, and oversees psychotherapy sessions.

Prison Work Since March 2008 ITEI has carried out programmes of therapy and investigation with prisoners held in detention centres in the cities of La Paz and Cochabamba. ITEI offers psychological and medical assistance to women and children in prison, as well as to prison staff. The investigations aim to document acts of torture and mistreatment, and detect any violence towards children, as well as to establish: Where torture is taking place The methods of torture that are being used Who is committing torture and acts of violence Why torture is committed By detecting and denouncing such treatment, as well as by providing instruction, ITEI hopes to prevent future acts of violence and torture in detention centres. It also hopes that its work in prisons will lead to reforms in the prison system that seek to improve conditions for prisoners and respect their human rights.

Draft Bill The draft bill also proposes the implementation of a National Preventive Mechanism - which the Bolivian government is obliged to introduce under the Optional Protocol to the Convention against Torture - to establish a system of regular and unrestricted visits in all places of detention with the aim of putting a stop to torture and inhumane treatment. The document mentions various locations where intervention is needed to prevent human rights violations, including police cells, prisons, juvenile detention centres and other police and military establishments. The proposed bill represents a foundation document for the discussion of legislation against torture and other humane treatment in Bolivia.

Koro language (India)
29072714-0
Koro is a language spoken in Arunachal Pradesh, India. Identification Recognition in the academic literature of Koro as a distinct language goes back at least to the 2009 edition of the Ethnologue (Lewis 2009), which based its findings on a language survey conducted in 2005. It notes that Koro has only 9 percent lexical similarity with Hruso Aka, and that it is "highly dissimilar to neighboring languages". In October 2010, the National Geographic Daily News published an article corroborating the findings of the Ethnologue based on research conducted in 2008 by a linguistic team of David Harrison, Gregory Anderson, and Ganesh Murmu while documenting two Hruso languages (Aka and Miji) as part of National Geographic's "Enduring Voices" project. It was reported to them as a dialect of Aka, but turned out to be highly divergent. Mark Post and Roger Blench (2011) propose that Koro is related to Milang in a branch, or perhaps independent family, they call Siangic.
