The Manifesto of the Communist Party... usually referred to as The Communist Manifesto, was first published on April 14, 1848, and is one of the world's most influential political tracts. Commissioned by the Communist League and written by communist theorists Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, it laid out the League's purposes and program. The Manifesto suggested a course of action for a proletarian(working class) revolution to overthrow the bourgeoisie(ruling upper class) and to eventually bring about a classless society. 2, record 2, English, - Manifesto%20of%20the%20Communist%20Party

This technological innovation, known as automated journalism, is a relatively new phenomenon in the area of computational journalism. Automated journalism refers to the process of using software or algorithms to automatically generate news stories without human intervention—after the initial programming of the algorithm, of course. Thus, once the algorithm is developed, it allows for automating each step of the news production process, from the collection and analysis of data, to the actual creation and publication of news. Automated journalism—also referred to as algorithmic or, somewhat misleadingly, robot journalism—works for fact-based stories for which clean, structured, and reliable data are available. 8, record 3, English, - automated%20journalism

Notice of certain facts that may be discovered by diligence or inquiry into a public record; a legal presumption that a person is responsible for knowing these facts. The proper recording of a document gives constructive notice to the world of the document's existence and contents. Possession of property also imparts constructive notice of the rights of the party in possession. Examples of rights of parties in possession would be rights under an unrecorded deed, contract for deed, lease-option, and rights of adverse possession. Constructive notice is also referred to as legal notice, in contrast to actual notice, which is express or direct knowledge acquired in the course of a transaction.(Reilly, 2nd ed., 1982, p. 100). 1, record 6, English, - constructive%20notice

Neutron weapons are miniature thermonuclear weapons with a calibre of about 1 kt [kiloton](at most up to 15 kt), where a fissioning initiator triggers the thermonuclear synthesis of tritium and deuterium. In the course of this synthesis, as much as 80% of energy is released in the form of immediate penetrating neutron radiation with high energy. Thus, the neutron weapon is referred to as a weapon with amplified radiation. 4, record 11, English, - neutron%20weapon

Sam Cohen teorizó que si a una bomba de hidrógeno se le quitaba la carcasa de uranio, ésta emitiría una gran cantidad de neutrones, que podrían viajar grandes distancias, atravesar estructuras blindadas y matar o incapacitar a quienes estuvieran dentro de ellas. Además, como la radiación remanente se produce principalmente por la fisión nuclear, dijo que dado que sólo quedaría una pequeña masa fisionable en el núcleo de la bomba, los residuos serían sólo de una fracción que el de una bomba atómica convencional, pero mucho más letal.

The final phase of rendezvous operations begins about three hours prior to Atlantis’ docking with the ISS [International Space Station]. Atlantis will approach the ISS from below, in what is referred to as a plus-R bar approach, to minimize the effects of jet thruster firings on the station and its solar arrays. About 40 minutes before the terminal initiation burn(Ti burn) when Atlantis moves within 135, 000 feet of the station, the shuttle's rendezvous radar system is activated to provide supplemental navigation information. Prior to initiating the Ti burn, the crew will power on the ODS [Orbital Docking System] and activate Atlantis's docking lights. A series of course correction burns will bring Atlantis to a point almost directly below and behind the station, at which point Commander Ken Cockrell initiates the manual portion of his approach to the ISS. Atlantis will intercept the R-bar about 700 feet below the station. Cockrell will slowly move Atlantis to a point about 600 feet below the station before performing a 180 degree yaw maneuver to position Atlantis in a "tail forward" attitude for the final approach and docking. 3, record 12, English, - rendezvous

Poussières [...] en Grande-Bretagne, les dimensions acceptées sont généralement entre 1 ou 2 à 76 microns, le mot «grit» (grain ou poussière grossière) désignant les particules de dimensions supérieures. 1, record 13, French, - poussi%C3%A8re%20grossi%C3%A8re
Record number: 13, Textual support number: 1 OBS
En français, le terme «poussières grossières» (au sens de moins fines que les particules habituellement étudiées) désignent les particules dont la dimension est supérieure à 45 microns (coarse particulate matter) ce qui englobe, bien sûr, les particules appelées «grit» en anglais. La distinction établie par «grit» (dans son sens spécifique) n'existant pas en français, ce terme ne peut donc être rendu que très approximativement. La suggestion par Détrie, La pollution atmosphérique, p. 585, d'utiliser le terme «grain», le grain étant généralement une grosse particule, laisse aussi à désirer car il y a aussi de très petits grains. 2, record 13, French, - poussi%C3%A8re%20grossi%C3%A8re
