There are reported Canadian family law cases where the woman has clearly been the aggressor. There is a need to take violence against men by their partners seriously, and to recognize that for some of these men a feeling of humiliation may make disclosure more difficult. However, it is also important to recognize that in general abuse of husbands is a less serious issue than abuse of wives, because of differences in social and economic power as well as strength. 2, record 2, English, - aggressor

poaching: a strategy in doubles play in which the player closest to the net extends the range of his reach by cutting in front of his or her partner in order to attempt a volley on the return of serve intended for his partner waiting near the baseline. 3, record 10, English, - poach

There is a slight difference between "poaching" and "interception". The first term implies a resolve to move over to one's partner's side of the court, whether one is expecting to make contact with the ball or not. The second term implies less doubt as to whether the ball will come or not. It will come and the player will meet the ball to put it away. In general, the French term "interception" conveys both English meanings. In English, the term "poaching" denotes a strategy as well as a set of specific actions used in doubles play; the term "poach" is the result of these actions. The French term "braconnage" denotes the action, while the term "interception" denotes the result. Related terms : crisscrossing, switching, to intervene. 3, record 10, English, - poach

There is a slight difference between "poaching" and "interception". The first term implies a resolve to move over to one's partner's side of the court, whether one is expecting to make contact with the ball or not. The second term implies less doubt as to whether the ball will come or not. It will come and the player will meet the ball to put it away. In more general French term "interception" conveys both English meanings. In English, the term "poaching" denotes a strategy as well as a set of specific actions used in doubles play; the term "poach" is the result of these actions. The French term "braconnage" denotes the action, while the term "interception" denotes the result. Related terms : crisscrossing, switching, to intervene. 2, record 18, English, - poaching

General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade(GATT). The safeguard provisions clarify the rules governing the use of a measure a country may take to protect a specific domestic industry from an unforeseen increase in imports of a product that is causing, or likely to cause, serious injury to its domestic industry. Permitted safeguard measures under GATT include the right to impose temporarily a restrictive trade measure on imports that cause, or threaten to cause, serious injury to a domestic industry. To discourage frivolous actions, however, the country imposing the safeguard measure may have to compensate its trading partners for lost trade. The agreement ensures that all countries will use comparable rules and procedures when taking safeguard actions. In the aggregate, a safeguard measure cannot exceed eight years, and must be progressively liberalized during its lifetime. 1, record 19, English, - Safeguard%20provisions

Accord général sur les tarifs douaniers et le commerce (GATT). Ces clauses précisent les règles régissant les mesures qu'un pays peut prendre pour protéger un secteur d'activité national donné contre une augmentation imprévue des importations d'un produit qui cause ou est susceptible de causer un préjudice grave à ce secteur. Les mesures de sauvegarde permises en vertu du GATT comprennent le droit d'adopter temporairement des mesures commerciales restrictives dans le cas des importations qui causent ou qui risquent de causer un préjudice grave à un secteur d'activité. Cependant, pour décourager les actions frivoles, le pays adoptant des mesures de sauvegarde pourrait devoir dédommager ses partenaires commerciaux pour leurs pertes. L'accord garantit que tous les pays appliqueront des règles et des procédures comparables lorsqu'ils prendront de telles mesures. Dans son ensemble, une mesure de sauvegarde totalise au plus huit ans et doit être progressivement allégée pendant son application. 1, record 19, French, - Les%20clauses%20de%20sauvegarde
