That's the buzz phrase, "go dark." This means that, if you are an investigator, all of a sudden all of your access to information evaporates, because not only the material but the systems that carry the material are so heavily encrypted you are not able to even detect the trail that you might like to follow. That is a huge issue that is technological on one side, and legal and constitutional on the other side. 1, record 4, English, - go%20dark

Si vous êtes un enquêteur, vous perdez alors tout d’un coup l'accès à l'information qui vous intéresse parce que, non seulement l'information mais le système dans lequel elle se trouve est si puissamment crypté qu'il vous devient impossible de suivre la trace de cette information.

Drag hunting is a sport in which a group of dogs (usually foxhounds or beagles) chase a scent that has been laid (dragged) over a terrain before the hunt. The scent, usually a combination of aniseed oils and possibly animal meats, is dragged along the terrain by a volunteer for any distance up to several miles to a designated finish line before the hounds are released at the start line by their owners.

Les équipages anglais, au lieu d’enfreindre la loi, se sont adaptés en organisant des chasses fictives. En effet les habitudes de sortie dans la campagne sont ainsimaintenues; les cavaliers donnent à la meute un autre objectif :suivre une trace olfactive pour débusquer non pas un animal terrorisé mais un leurre. Certains habitués de cette pratique alternative, bien installée en divers pays qui ont renoncé à la chasse à courre depuis plus ou moins longtemps, imaginent des parcours nécessitant une grande maîtrise des obstacles et méritent alors le titre de sportifs. 4, record 6, French, - chasse%20fictive

We prefer the term "cross-under" because it helps us to stay ski focused rather than body focused. When we think "cross-under", we have a better understanding of the skis accelerating under the hips and the feet going further than the center of mass. The feet speed up and slow down while the CM maintains a more constant speed. 1, record 17, English, - cross%2Dunder

Many ski technicians call the divergence of these paths a "cross-over" movement. They see that the body crosses over the skis. The CM starts over the skis, moves in a little and moves still further inside as angulation increases. 1, record 17, English, - cross%2Dunder

One method used to uncover all the things that could go wrong is the "event tree/fault tree" analysis technique. Event tree work is not unlike following a multi-branched trail of dominoes as they knock each other over in sequence. Such analysis allows the tracing of things that could occur after the initiating events. Paths of action and consequences are traced, sometimes to great length. The fault tree technique, a favorite tool of AECB staff members, is a means of finding out what combinations of component and system failures would cause an event in the first place. It provides a systematic method of checking that the systems being relied on to prevent something worse happening won't be knocked out by the event itself. 1, record 18, English, - event%20tree%2Ffault%20tree%20analysis%20technique
