Since the Villers-Cotterêts Edict in 1539, the French language has officially been a component of national identity. Today, the Constitution(article 2) specifies that the language of the Republic is French, while remaining open to the use of other languages. La Délégation générale à la langue française et aux langues de France(DGLFLF) is a government department whose role is to guide national language policy at inter-ministerial level. Attached to the Ministry of Culture and Communication, the department's role is to examine, pilot and co-ordinate issues, and to track the application of legislative and statutory mechanisms(Law of 4th August 1994 on the use of the French language). It is supported by a network of partner organisations including the Senior Council for the French Language and the General Commission for Terminology and Neologisms. 1, record 4, English, - D%C3%A9l%C3%A9gation%20g%C3%A9n%C3%A9rale%20%C3%A0%20la%20langue%20fran%C3%A7aise%20et%20aux%20langues%20de%20France

Depuis l’Édit de Villers-Cotterêts (1539), la langue française est un élément constitutif de l’identité nationale. Aujourd’hui, l’usage du français, langue de la République, est garanti sur notre territoire, en vertu de la Constitution (article 2), dans une perspective d’ouverture aux autres langues. Les pouvoirs publics disposent d’un service chargé d’animer, au plan interministériel, la politique linguistique de l’État : la Délégation générale à la langue française et aux langues de France (DGLFLF). Rattachée au ministère de la culture et de la communication, elle joue un rôle de réflexion, d’impulsion et de coordination, assure le suivi des dispositifs législatifs et réglementaires (loi du 4 août 1994 relative à l’emploi de la langue française) et s’appuie sur un réseau d’organismes partenaires (Conseil supérieur de la langue française, Commission générale de terminologie et de néologie). 1, record 4, French, - D%C3%A9l%C3%A9gation%20g%C3%A9n%C3%A9rale%20%C3%A0%20la%20langue%20fran%C3%A7aise%20et%20aux%20langues%20de%20France

LANTIRN consists of a navigation pod and a targeting pod integrated and mounted externally beneath the aircraft. The AN/AAQ-13 navigation pod provides high-speed penetration and precision attack on tactical targets at night and in adverse weather. The naviation pod also contains a terrain-following radar and a fixed infrared sensor, which provides a visual cue and input to the aircraft's flight control system, enabling it to maintain a preselected altitude above the terrain and avoid obstacles. This sensor displays an infrared image of the terrain in front of the aircraft, to the pilot, on a head-up display. The navigation pod enables the pilot to fly along the general contour of the terrain at high speed, using mountains, valleys and the cover of darkness to avoid detection. 2, record 5, English, - navigation%20pod

HAPEX-Sahel(Hydrological and Atmospheric Pilot Experiment in the Sahel) is an international land-surface-atmosphere observation program that was undertaken in western Niger, in the west African Sahel region. The overall aims were to improve our understanding of the role of the Sahel on the general circulation, in particular the effects of the large interannual fluctuations of land surface conditions in this region and, in turn, to develop ideas about how the general circulation is related to the persistent droughts that have affected the Sahel during the last 25 years. 2, record 6, English, - Hydrologic%20Atmospheric%20Pilot%20Experiment%20in%20the%20Sahel
