When police choose to implement a community policing program in an area, they are making a statement that that area and its people are important. They are dedicating time, resources, people, and effort to keep an area safe and improve its conditions. For communities that previously felt ignored and abandoned by their local police, these community policing efforts can start to bridge that gap and build a relationship again.  2, record 1, English, - community%20policing%20program

When a light-emitting diode is forward-biased(switched on), electrons are able to recombine with electron holes within the device, releasing energy in the form of photons. This effect is called electroluminescence and the color of the light(corresponding to the energy of the photon) is determined by the energy gap of the semiconductor. LEDs are often small in area(less than 1 mm), and integrated optical components may be used to shape their radiation pattern.  5, record 6, English, - light%2Demitting%20diode

To investigate the tooth development in the none-tooth bearing area, the tooth germs were transplanted into the toothless gap, diastema of the developing mandible. Also to study the effect of growth factors on the tooth development, BMP [bone morphogenetic protein] was added during culture period. After periods of in vitro and in vivo culture, the transplanted tooth germ in the toothless gap area showed bioengineered tooth with supportive structure formation. In BMP treated group, the bioengineered tooth was observed with increased maturation of cusp and enamel matrix, which suggest possibility of controlling of bio-engineering of the tooth in morphogenesis even in toothless area.  3, record 8, English, - bioengineered%20tooth

Cost-effective open-plan environments(COPE)-a new research initiative. Many organizations believe that reducing office space is a great way to save money. But putting more people in the same area can lead to poorer indoor air quality, lower lighting levels, higher noise levels and increased fire hazards. These negative impacts can result in lower levels of employee satisfaction, more absenteeism, decreased productivity, and higher costs. IRC [Institut de recherche en construction) aims to fill that gap with a new research initiative-COPE. The multidisciplinary COPE team will conduct innovative research using sophisticated computer models, laboratory facilities and field studies. The results of this research will be combined with existing knowledge to evaluate : the effect of occupant density, office landscape and base building characteristics on the indoor environment and fire risk; the effect of the indoor environment(including both physical and psychological components) on occupant satisfaction; the performance and cost-benefit of a variety of measures to improve the indoor environment.  1, record 18, English, - Cost%2Deffective%20open%2Dplan%20environments
