Charities can and do charge fees for their charitable programs, but when their fees are high enough that they exclude those in need of the service or provide a return above the break-even point, it raises the question of whether their purpose is indeed charitable. A key to identifying whether a training business or social business is a charitable program in its own right(as opposed to a potentially "related" business) is to determine whether its focus is on helping the clientele or on making a profit. 1, record 7, English, - charitable%20program

Les organismes de bienfaisance peuvent exiger des frais pour leurs programmes de bienfaisance et elles le font. Toutefois, lorsque ces frais ont pour effet d'exclure certaines des personnes qui ont besoin de leurs services ou de donner à l'organisme un rendement qui va au-delà du seuil de rentabilité, cela soulève la question de savoir si son objectif relève véritablement de la bienfaisance. Un moyen clé de savoir si une entreprise de formation ou une entreprise sociale met [en] œuvre un programme relevant de la bienfaisance (par opposition à ce qui pourrait être une activité commerciale complémentaire) est de voir si elle se concentre sur l'aide à la clientèle plutôt que sur la réalisation d'un profit. 1, record 7, French, - programme%20de%20bienfaisance

"delivered at frontier" means that the seller delivers when the goods are placed at the disposal of the buyer on the arriving means of transport not unloaded, cleared for export, but not cleared for import at the named point and place at the frontier, but before the customs border of the adjoining country. The term "frontier" may be used for any frontier including that of the country of export. Therefore, it is of vital importance that the frontier in question be defined precisely by always naming the point and place in the term. However, if the parties wish the seller to be responsible for the unloading of the goods from the arriving means of transport and to bear the risks and costs of unloading, this should be made clear by adding explicit wording to this effect in the contract of sale. This term may be used irrespective of the mode of transport when goods are to be delivered at a land frontier. When delivery is to take place in the port of destination, on board a vessel or on the quay(wharf), the DES or DEQ terms should be used. 3, record 8, English, - delivered%20at%20frontier

«rendu frontière» signifie que le vendeur a dûment livré dès lors que la marchandise a été mise à la disposition de l'acheteur à l'endroit convenu et au lieu frontalier convenu, mais avant la frontière douanière du pays adjacent, sur le véhicule de transport d'approche non déchargé, la marchandise étant dédouanée à l'exportation mais non dédouanée à l'importation. Le mot «frontière» peut être utilisé pour toute frontière y compris celle du pays d'exportation. Il est donc d'une importance capitale de définir avec précision la frontière en cause, en indiquant toujours à la suite du terme DAF l'endroit et le lieu convenus. Cependant si les parties souhaitent que le vendeur assume la responsabilité de décharger la marchandise à l'arrivée du véhicule de transport et de supporter les risques et frais de déchargement, elles doivent l'indiquer clairement en ajoutant une mention expresse à cet effet dans le contrat de vente. Le terme DAF peut être utilisé quel que soit le mode de transport lorsque la marchandise est à livrer à une frontière terrestre. Si la livraison doit se faire au port de destination, à bord d'un navire ou sur le quai, ce sont les termes DES ou DEQ qu'il convient d'utiliser. 4, record 8, French, - rendu%20fronti%C3%A8re

It can keep and use separate databases for separate vehicles, tracks, or classes. Some of the really sophisticated stations have a prediction deviation function [which] gives a reliability value of the prediction.

The 3000 adds humidity, dew point and heat stress index.... But for an all out weather station you can hold in the palm of your hand, the Kestrel 4000 provides all of this, in addition to wet bulb, altitude, air density and barometric pressure. Most importantly, 250 of these readings can be recorded in the device's memory and later transferred to the farm computer.... Michael Naughton of Nielsen Keller-man said the company released the 1000 in 1999 with the intention of it being a tool for sailors and outdoor sports and weather enthusiasts.

The Socratic method is a well-established approach to the problem of helping the student refine and debug her knowledge. In this paradigm, the tutor encourages the student to refine her knowledge by presenting her with instances (counter examples) which run counter to her conception of the domain. ... In general, a counter example can be viewed as an instance which satisfies the antecedent of the rule which the student is thought to be using, but violates the rule’s consequent. 3, record 27, English, - negative%20example
