In 1999-2000, we continued our review of the impact of the RCMP [Royal Canadian Mounted Police] 's reorganization by conducting a study of the language requirement designations in New Brunswick. Based on a consultant's report, the RCMP decided to lower the language requirement for oral interaction for a number of constables’ positions from level C to level B, in order to ensure greater opportunities for advancement for constables who did not have level C. We concluded that this was contrary to section 91 of the [Official Languages] Act, which states that the language requirements of a position must be determined in an objective manner based on the real needs of service to the public and the language of work alone. 1, record 7, English, - language%20requirement%20designation

Nous avons poursuivi en 1999-2000 notre examen de l'impact de la réorganisation de la GRC [Gendarmerie royale du Canada] en menant une étude sur la désignation des exigences linguistiques au Nouveau-Brunswick. En se basant sur le rapport d'un consultant, la GRC avait décidé d'abaisser l'exigence relative à l'interaction orale de plusieurs postes de gendarme du niveau «C», au niveau «B» afin d'assurer de plus grandes chances d'avancement aux gendarmes ne possédant pas le niveau «C». Nous avons conclu que cela allait à l'encontre de l'article 91 de la Loi [sur les langues officielles] qui établit que les exigences d'un poste doivent être déterminées de façon objective selon les besoins reliés au service au public et à la langue de travail uniquement. 1, record 7, French, - d%C3%A9signation%20des%20exigences%20linguistiques

The calculations for the ISS [International Space Station] quasi-steady acceleration environment can be compared to a set of formal design requirements which state that 50 percent of the ISPR [International Standard Payload Rack] locations within the U. S. Lab, Columbus and the JEM must have quasi-steady accelerations below 1 ug for periods of 30 continuous days a total of 6 times per year. The operation of the Station in Microgravity Mode is designed to produce these 30 day intervals. The quasi-steady acceleration vector has an additional directional stability requirement stating that the component perpendicular to the vector's orbital average must be less than or equal to 0. 2 [mu] g. To meet this requirement the Station's attitude must be controlled during orbit so that it maintains a constant position relative to the LVLH [Local Vertical/Local Horizontal] axes. 2, record 8, English, - quasi%2Dsteady%20acceleration%20environment
Record number: 8, Textual support number: 2 CONT
The quasi-steady state acceleration level is determined primarily by the combined effects of atmospheric drag (due to the finite residual Earth’s atmosphere at the orbital altitude of the ISS), and gravity gradient stabilisation of the ISS. Gravity gradient stabilisation uses the principle that a body in orbit around the Earth will tend to rotate about it’s centre of mass, as each part of the body will tend to follow it’s own orbit. It will normally oscillate about a mean orientation, but will eventually remain in a stable orientation with respect to the Earth. The normal orientation for the ISS is the Torque Equilibrium Attitude discussed earlier. The resultant combination of atmospheric drag, gravity gradient and other secondary effects produce a set of gravity contours (i.e., locations of equal gravity level) which define the quasi-steady state microgravity environment of the ISS. 3, record 8, English, - quasi%2Dsteady%20acceleration%20environment

Les modèles d'analyse dynamique (DAC 8) pour l'ISS [International Space Station] prévoient un environnement caractérisé par des vibrations de l'ordre du milli-g (10-4 g) plutôt que des conditions de véritable microgravité (10-6 g) en raison des activités et des divers éléments de l'ISS qui causent des vibrations intempestives (gigue gravitationnelle). Les travaux antérieurs menés à bord de la navette et de Mir ont montré que le milieu est caractérisé par des vibrations aléatoires continues, orientées dans tous les sens, avec des accélérations de l'ordre du milli-g et des crêtes dépassant souvent les 10 milli-g. 2, record 8, French, - milieu%20gravitationnel%20quasi%20stable

Even though electric heating is not new, forced air electric furnaces have been available in large quantities for only a few years. Electric furnaces, although similar in appearance to gas furnaces, are quite different. They do not require gas piping or venting. They do, however, require that high capacity electric circuits be installed to the furnace. Electric furnaces are more flexible than gas furnaces because there is no specific position in which to install them. The only requirement is that all components be accessible for installation and service. 2, record 9, English, - electric%20furnace

fournaise : Ce terme est considéré comme impropre par les puristes. Selon Dagenais, dans son «Dictionnaire des difficultés de la langue française au Canada», «fournaise» serait un calque de l'anglais «furnace» et nous devrions plutôt dire «chaudière» lorsque le fluide caloporteur est l'eau ou la vapeur et «générateur d'air chaud», lorsque le fluide, est l'air.
