The Public Prosecution Service of Canada(PPSC) is a federal government organization, created on December 12, 2006, when the Director of Public Prosecutions Act, Part 3 of the Federal Accountability Act, came into force. The PPSC fulfills the responsibilities of the Attorney General of Canada in the discharge of his criminal law mandate by prosecuting criminal offences under federal jurisdiction and by contributing to strengthening the criminal justice system. In this regard, the PPSC assumes the role played within the Department of Justice Canada by the former Federal Prosecution Service(FPS), and takes on additional responsibilities for prosecuting new fraud offences under the Financial Administration Act as well as offences under the Canada Elections Act. Unlike the FPS, which was part of the Department of Justice, the PPSC is an independent organization, reporting to Parliament through the Attorney General of Canada. 1, record 2, English, - Public%20Prosecution%20Service%20of%20Canada

Le Service des poursuites pénales du Canada (SPPC) est un organisme du gouvernement fédéral créé le 12 décembre 2006, lorsque la Loi sur le directeur des poursuites pénales, partie 3 de la Loi fédérale sur la responsabilité est entrée en vigueur. Le SPPC assume les fonctions du procureur général du Canada dans l'exécution de son mandat dans le domaine du droit pénal, en poursuivant les infractions criminelles relevant de la compétence du gouvernement fédéral et en contribuant à renforcer le système de justice pénale. À cet égard, le SPPC assume les fonctions de l'ancien Service fédéral des poursuites (SFP) du ministère de la Justice, tout en prenant des responsabilités supplémentaires en matière de poursuites relatives aux infractions de fraude prévues à la Loi sur la gestion des finances publiques ainsi qu'aux infractions en vertu de la Loi électorale du Canada.

IATE (Inter-Active Terminology for Europe) is the EU [European Union] inter-institutional terminology database. IATE has been used in the EU institutions and agencies since summer 2004 for the collection, dissemination and shared management of EU-specific terminology. IATE incorporates all of the existing terminology databases of the EU’s translation services into a single new, highly interactive and accessible interinstitutional database. The following legacy databases have been imported into IATE, which now contains approximately 1.4 million multilingual entries: Eurodicautom (Commission), TIS (Council), Euterpe (EP), Euroterms (Translation Centre), CDCTERM (Court of Auditors). 1, record 5, English, - Inter%2DActive%20Terminology%20for%20Europe

TIS is an acronym for the Terminological Information System of The General Secretariat of the Council of the European Union. The system was designed as a working tool for Council translators and has enabled the Terminology Service to provide a database of terms and abbreviations in the languages of the Communities. WebTIS, the terminology database of the Council of the European Union, is about to be replaced by the interinstitutional database IATE. The public version of IATE is now available for testing.

In 1994, the general planning for the town's central area of 9 square kilometers was finished, thus a scientific basis is provided for the general arrangement of down town area in respect of roads & transport system, industrial land use, reserved agricultural land, residential & commercial buildings, commercial areas, recreational centers and cultural-medical service facilities. All construction projects must follow this general arrangement. This plan may be modified only if it is approved by the town's National Congress to be modified.

Centre urbain. L'espace central des villes est, surtout en Europe, l'espace urbain par excellence. Le centre d'une ville est le lieu de référence de l'ensemble de l'agglomération, le lieu privilégié de l'ambiance urbaine. [...] Le concept de centre urbain est cependant un concept fonctionnel, avant d'être un concept spatial : il désigne moins la zone située au centre que la zone où s'exercent les fonctions centrales de l'agglomération. [...] Bien que les centres des villes soient l'objet d'une problématique bien spécifique, il est pratiquement impossible d'en donner une définition qui permette de les délimiter précisément. On peut dire que le centre est une zone qui se caractérise par une forte densité de fréquentation et une importante complexité des activités. [...] Noyau urbain. Notion de morphologie urbaine servant à désigner la partie du tissu urbain la plus ancienne et la plus dense. Le recouvrement entre noyau urbain et zone centrale n'est parfois que partiel. 2, record 12, French, - am%C3%A9nagement%20de%20la%20zone%20centrale

In parallel, Scandinavian planners had been adopting versions of what in Copenhagen was called the finger plan : they put new settlement like beads on a string along public transport routes, in the case of Copenhagen a light rail system, in Stockholm a new underground railway. The most celebrated case was Stockholm, where the famous 1952 General Plan of Sven Markelius and Göran Sidenbladh developed systematic pyramids of density around the stations, and also provided service and other jobs in district centres around these same stations, with the idea that as many as one third would find jobs in the places where they lived(Hall 1992a; Hall 1997). 2, record 13, English, - finger%20pal

[Lanchester] suggested nothing less than an ideal form for a major metropolis. His diagram shows radiating wedges of open space flanked by parallel corridors of developed land pierced through the center by rail lines. As these radial fingers of development become farther apart with distance from the commercial center and its central station, other wedges of open space are introduced. 3, record 13, English, - finger%20pal
