Nearly all industrial welding involves fusion. The edges or surfaces to be welded are brought to the molten state. The liquid metal bridges the gap between the parts. After the source of welding heat has been removed, the liquid solidifies, thus joining or welding the parts together. In the past, there were three principal sources of heat for fusion welding: electric arc, electric resistance and flame. 3, record 1, English, - fusion%20welding

Socialist Challenge was the name of a Trotskyist group in English Canada formed by former members of the Revolutionary Workers League/Ligue Ouvrière Révolutionnaire who were expelled or resigned when the RWL moved away from Trotskyism in the early 1980s. The ex-RWL members formed a number of groups under various names in cities across Canada such as the "Socialist Workers Committee" in Toronto. They regrouped as the "Alliance for Socialist Action" and, in 1988 adopted the name Socialist Challenge(after the name of their newspaper) as a result of an organizational fusion with the Quebec group Gauche Socialiste(the formal name of the group was Socialist Challenge/Gauche Socialiste). Socialist Challenge was initially a sympathizing section of the United Secretariat of the Fourth International but became the USFI's official section in the English Canada in the late 1980s after RWL, now called the Communist League, left the USFI. 1, record 4, English, - Socialist%20Challenge
