„LEAF's amendment would allow the state to grant authorization to degrade a surface water only after a discharger has considered all economically and technically feasible pollution prevention measures. In spite of intense industry and agency opposition amid allegations that pollution prevention measures are unavailable to address point source discharges of pollutants into surface waters, the Florida Environmental Regulation Commission instructed the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) staff to reconsider LEAF's proposal during workshops on the antidegradation rule. Accordingly, chemical use information is important for several reasons.“http://www.mapcruzin.com/scruztri/docs/r11.htm - Cached

„In the first half of the 1980s, the Czech writer Milan Kundera described Central Europe as "a kidnapped Occident," a "piece of the Latin West which has fallen under Russian domination...[and] which lies geographically in the centre, culturally in the West and politically in the East".[1] In many respects, the Austrian experience between the end of the Second World War and the collapse of the Communist bloc in 1989 is the reverse story - the tale of a "kidnapped Central Europe."During the Cold War, despite the attempts of some of its leaders, such as the long-serving socialist Chancellor Bruno Kreisky, to establish the country as a "bridge" between West and East, Austria (and especially the former Hapsburg imperial capital Vienna) lost many of its connections with its traditional hinterland - even if more than an estimated 2.5 million political refugees passed through the country and 600,000 chose to stay and became Austrian citizens.[2]To be sure, the story of the Austrian second republic, far from the "tragedy" staged in neighbouring Czechoslovakia, Hungary or Poland, was (and still is) a nearly unmitigated success story - not least from an economic standpoint.[3] Austria narrowly escaped the fate of its neighbours, mostly because of Khrushchev's willingness to compromise and to agree to the neutralisation and the "permanent neutrality" (immerwaehrende Neutralitaet) of the Alpine republic in 1955.After 1989: back to Mitteleuropa?From the 1960s onwards, some Austrian politicians and intellectuals, such as the former minister Erhard Busek, had developed connections with dissident circles in Eastern Europe [4] or believed in the concept of Central“http://www.ce-review.org/99/23/perrault23.html - Cached
„While in Europe, the Singers, directed by Jeffrey Pappas, of the Clarke music faculty, performed six concerts in Prague, The Czech Republic; Vienna and Salzburg, Austria; and Freising, Germany. The group performed in a variety of venues, ranging from a very small church in Prague, to St. George Catholic Church in Freising, to the Dom Kirche in Salzburg where they sang to an audience of more than 500.“http://www.clarke.edu/news/collegian/spring97/ singers.htm - Cached
„Thompson-style journalism into an award-winning, text-full, technicolor magazine, furnished with hard-hitting scrutinies and such visionary anomalies as Fashion Dialogues and an à table of hanging Chads. Reeking euphonically of Brooks Brothers, James maintains the mentality of an Enlightenment salon’s bon vivant—his ethos not only included the associates’ ideas in the organizational process, but also transformed FM into a crotchety community of aesthetes.“http://www.thecrimson.com/fmarchives/fm_12_15_2000/ kafka.html - Cached
„One colleague said that all this power conditioning stuff is a solution to a problem, and you first need to make sure you actually have a problem. If your electric company is anything more than an outfit with a squirrel-powered generator, chances are your power is just fine. The power supply of a given component will deal with the typical voltage it’s seeing at your wall outlet, and whatever background EMI/RFI noise there is on the line ain’t gonna be worth throwing a lot of money at.“http://www.audioholics.com/forums/archive/index.php/ t-1855.html - Cached
„My "grooming guru," Ralph Malani, had created a strikingly different "me." Professional hairstylists can be extremely catty when appraising hair that isn't styled and colored to their standards, but Ralph had politely avoided saying anything negative about my hair or its color when I'd met him and "fashionista" Danny Munoz earlier that morning. I'd told him that I'd been planning to get a trim for several weeks but had decided to wait until the big day (which was true) and that I was open to almost anything in terms of cut or color leading to an improvement. (My editor had already ruled out corn rows, extensions and the easy out, the hairless.)“http://starbulletin.com/2003/09/16/features/ story1.html - Cached
