Disinfection process, mainly with chlorine, to prevent microbiological contamination of water can lead to the formation of hazardous disinfection by-products(DBPs) due to the reaction of chlorine with natural organic matter(NOM) present in the water.... Beyond specific health based thresholds, DBPs can represent a public health issue due to the potential chronic risk of adverse effects on human health(e. g., cancer, reproductive and developmental effects) and the high prevalence of exposure. Thus, DBPs constitute an important concern for water systems, especially systems supplied by surface waters.... Recently, a technique known as differential UV [ultraviolet] absorbance(DUVA) has been developed that could provide a sensitive and highly specific indicator for DBP formation resulting from chlorination. 2, record 1, English, - differential%20UV%20absorbance

[Des auteurs] ont publié un rapport sur l'utilisation de la méthode du différentiel d'absorbance UV [ultraviolet] (DAUV) pour estimer la formation des SPD [sous-produits de désinfection]. Cette méthode est basée sur le principe que la matière organique absorbe la lumière. Lorsque le chlore entre en contact avec la matière organique, celle-ci s'oxyde, ce qui entraine la formation de SPD, mais aussi une diminution de la capacité de la matière organique à absorber la lumière (absorbance). [...] Les auteurs soulignent que cette méthode peut s'avérer un outil fort utile pour le suivi des SPD dans les réseaux de distribution et dans les stations de traitement, en permettant de sauver temps et argent pour les analyses. 2, record 1, French, - diff%C3%A9rentiel%20d%27absorbance%20UV

Fair comment on matters of public concern or interest is protected from liability for defamation provided it is based on fact. These matters fall within two main categories; first those in which the public has a legitimate interest, such as government activity, political debate, proposals by public figures, and public affairs generally; second, works of art displayed in public such as theatrical performances, music and literature. In a democratic and culturally vibrant society, a discussion of these matters must be unfettered. In the case of the former, the public has an interest by reason of the nature of the subject matter. With regard to the latter, the objects of the comment have voluntarily submitted their deeds to public scrutiny. 2, record 7, English, - fair%20comment

Le débat sur ces questions ne peut être limité dans une société sur les plans démocratique et culturel.

The main threat so far to the recording industry, is that as each successive copy is identical to the original; there is no loss in quality no matter the generation of the copy. It was precisely for this reason that the recording industry so fervently opposed the introduction of DAT[ 2] technology in the late 1980s, and succeeded in the passage of the Audio Home Recording Act of 1992. The issue of copying music onto a cassette did not cause much concern prior to the introduction of DAT as the cost of making copies was restricted by the price of cassette tapes-and each successive copy was of poorer quality than the last. There was little market for second-, third-, or fourth-generation scratchy home recordings. 3, record 15, English, - Audio%20Home%20Recording%20Act

The Audio Home Recording Act of 1992 (AHRA) amended the United States copyright law by adding chapter 10 "Digital Audio Recording Devices and Media." The act enabled the release of recordable digital formats such as Sony and Phillips’ Digital Audio Tape DAT without fear of contributory infringement lawsuits. The RIAA and music publishers, concerned that consumers ability to make perfect digital copies of music would destroy the market for audio recordings, had threatened to sue both companies and lobbied Congress to pass lesgislation imposing mandatory copy protection technology and royalties on devices and media. The AHRA is often overlooked, but it establishes a number of important precedents in US copyright law that that defined the debate between device makers and the content industry for the ensuing two decades. 2, record 15, English, - Audio%20Home%20Recording%20Act
