66 McNeill, George Edwin
(1837-1906) Макнил, Джордж ЭдвинТкач, обувщик, деятель рабочего движения. В 1863 - секретарь Лиги за восьмичасовой рабочий день [Grand Eight-Hour League] в г. Бостоне, ее президент в 1869-74. Был назван газетой "Нью-Йорк таймс" [ New York Times] "отцом движения за восьмичасовой рабочий день" ["father of the eight-hour movement"]. Способствовал принятию соответствующих законов на уровне штатов, которые, правда, не исполнялись работодателями. В 1869 вместе с У. Филлипсом [ Phillips, Wendell] создал Новоанглийскую лигу реформы законов о труде [New England Labor Reform League], благодаря усилиям которой была создана первая в стране организация - прообраз Бюро трудовой статистики [ Bureau of Labor Statistics]. Макнил был уволен из бюро из-за открытых связей с профсоюзами. С 1878 сотрудничал с марксистами в создании I интернационала [International Labor Union (ILU)], позднее - с Орденом Рыцарей труда [ Knights of Labor], который в 1874 принял сформулированную Макнилом декларацию принципов деятельности. В 1886 после ряда конфликтов с "Рыцарями" перешел в АФТ [ AFL], стал редактором ее бостонской газеты "Лейбор лидер" [Labor Leader], выдвигался на пост мэра Бостона; член нескольких комиссий штата Массачусетс. В 1898 - вице-президент Американской антиимпериалистической лиги [ American Anti-Imperialist League]. Автор и редактор ряда книг о рабочем движении, среди которых наиболее известна "Рабочее движение: проблемы сегодняшнего дня" ["The Labor Movement: The Problem of Today"] (1887), которая считается первым историческим трудом о рабочем движении в США.English-Russian dictionary of regional studies > McNeill, George Edwin

70 Bové, José
French MEP, elected to the European parliament on the list of the French greens in June 2009. Highly mediatized and self-styled leader of theConfédération Paysanne, an initially unofficial protest grouping of small farmers established as a backlash against the accelerating fall in the number and economic viability of France's small farms. Bové himself is a producer of Roquefort cheese, living on the barren Causses in southern central France. However his campaign in defence of the French small farmer developed into a more general anti-capitalist and anti-globalisation movement, with Bové being arrested twice and sentenced to prison firstly for leading a group of protestors in demolishing a partly built McDonald's restaurant in the town of Millau, and later for breaking into an agricultural research facility and uprooting thousands of genetically modified plants. When first sent to prison, Bové capitalised on the event by driving himself to the jail at the head of a procession of tractors, which received massive media coverage. To avoid a repeat of this, police arrested him a second time in 2003 with a spectacular dawn raid on his farmhouse, carrying Bové off to jail in a helicopter. While avoiding a second Bové media circus, the means employed in this arrest were seriously criticised throughout the media. Since the mid 1990's, Bové has also been present at most major international economic and social forums - including Puerto Alegre and Seattle - leading to accusations that he is not really the typical small farmer he claims to be.Dictionnaire Français-Anglais.

76 North Atlantic Treaty Organization
(NATO)Portugal joined the North Atlantic Treaty Organization in 1949, as a founding member. Besides complementing the Atlantic orientation of Portugal's foreign and defense policies, this membership also supported the country's close relationship with two leading members of NATO, Great Britain and the United States. Portugal's slight contribution to NATO in the first decades after joining was conditioned mainly by the fact that Portugal's primary concern was in defending its colonial empire, Portuguese India (1954-61) and in conducting several colonial wars in its African empire in Angola, Mozambique, and Guinea- Bissau (1961-74). One contentious question during this phase of Portugal's membership was the extent to which Portugal used NATO-issued equipment to fight those wars in Africa and Asia, since several of these colonial territories were neither on the Atlantic nor in NATO's jurisdiction (Mozambique and Portuguese India).The perceived strategic value of Portugal's key Atlantic archipelagos, the Azores and Madeiras, constituted Portugal's primary contribution to NATO and neutralized any U.S. ambivalence about the question of Portugal's NATO membership. The usefulness of Azores' air and naval bases, especially Lajes base at Angra do Heroísmo, Terceira Island, Azores, along with bases in continental Portugal and in the Madeira Islands, trumped international criticism of Portugal's colonial action and influenced American policy toward Portugal. This remained the situation until after the Yom Kippur war, an Arab-Israeli conflict, in October 1973, when Portugal, despite the risks to her energy supplies, gave the United States permission to use Azores bases for resupplying Israel.The Revolution of 25 April 1974 had an impact on Portugal's relationship to NATO. Leftist forces in Portugal were now in command, and Portuguese NATO delegates did not attend highly sensitive NATO defense briefings. But by 1980, after moderate military forces had ousted the radical leftists, Portugal's NATO roles returned to the routing. One of NATO's major subordinate commands became IBERLANT (Iberian Atlantic Command), under SACLANT (Supreme Commander Atlantic), located at Norfolk, Virginia. IBERLANT is located at Oeiras, Portugal and, in 1982, the IBERLAND commander for the first time was a Portuguese Vice Admiral. That same year, Spain joined NATO and, until 1986, when Spain decided not to join NATO's integrated military structure, Portugal was anxious that Portuguese commanders not be subordinate to Spanish commanders in NATO. As a key leader of IBERLANT, along with the representative units of Great Britain and the United States, Portugal's forces remain responsible for surveillance and patrolling of the area from central Portugal to the straits of Gibraltar.Portugal has made symbolic if modest contributions to NATO's mission in the Balkan conflicts beginning in the late 1990s and in Afghanistan since 2001. Among Portugal's contributions has been the service of medical units in Afghanistan.Historical dictionary of Portugal > North Atlantic Treaty Organization

77 Intel
Fondée en 1971, la société Intel est le leader mondial des microprocesseurs, les autres "grands" du marché étant AMD (Advanced Micro Devices) et IBM (International Business Machines). Intel est notamment l’auteur des processeurs Celeron (gamme 300), Pentium 4 (gamme 500), Pentium 4 Extreme Edition (gamme 700) et Centrino. Le processeur Centrino permet la connexion sans fil à l’internet dans un rayon de quelques mètres, en intégrant à l’ordinateur un processeur Pentium-M (adapté à la mobilité, et plus économique en énergie que le Pentium classique), un jeu de composants associés et un module WiFi (wireless fidelity). En avril 2005, Intel lance sa première puce adaptée à la technologie WiMAX (worldwide interoperability for microwave access), qui permet l’accès sans fil à l’internet dans un rayon beaucoup plus large (plusieurs kilomètres). En janvier 2006, avec l’évolution entraînée par l’utilisation du Mac OS X (OS: operating system), le système d’exploitation du Macintosh lancé en 2004, Intel devient le nouveau partenaire d’Apple (avec le microprocesseur x86) pour ses ordinateurs Mac, au lieu d’IBM et Motorola. -

80 Clark, Edwin
SUBJECT AREA: Civil engineering[br]b. 7 January 1814 Marlow, Buckinghamshire, Englandd. 22 October 1894 Marlow, Buckinghamshire, England[br]English civil engineer.[br]After a basic education in mathematics, latin, French and geometry, Clark was articled to a solicitor, but he left after two years because he did not like the work. He had no permanent training otherwise, and for four years he led an idle life, becoming self-taught in the subjects that interested him. He eventually became a teacher at his old school before entering Cambridge, although he returned home after two years without taking a degree. He then toured the European continent extensively, supporting himself as best he could. He returned to England in 1839 and obtained further teaching posts. With the railway boom in progress he decided to become a surveyor and did some work on a proposed line between Oxford and Brighton.After being promised an interview with Robert Stephenson, he managed to see him in March 1846. Stephenson took a liking to Clark and asked him to investigate the strains on the Britannia Bridge tubes under various given conditions. This work so gained Stephenson's full approval that, after being entrusted with experiments and designs, Clark was appointed Resident Engineer for the Britannia Bridge across the Menai Straits. He not only completed the bridge, which was opened on 19 October 1850, but also wrote the history of its construction. After the completion of the bridge—and again without any professional experience—he was appointed Engineer-in-Chief to the Electric and International Telegraph Company. He was consulted by Captain Mark Huish of the London \& North Western Railway on a telegraphic system for the railway, and in 1853 he introduced the Block Telegraph System.Clark was engaged on the Crystal Palace and was responsible for many railway bridges in Britain and abroad. He was Engineer and part constructor of the harbour at Callao, Peru, and also of harbour works at Colón, Panama. On canal works he was contractor for the marine canal, the Morskoy Canal, in 1875 between Kronstadt and St Petersburg. His great work on canals, however, was the concept with Edward Leader Williams of the hydraulically operated barge lift at Anderton, Cheshire, linking the Weaver Navigation to the Trent \& Mersey Canal, whose water levels have a vertical separation of 50 ft (15 m). This was opened on 26 July 1875. The structure so impressed the French engineers who were faced with a bottleneck of five locks on the Neuffossée Canal south of Saint-Omer that they commissioned Clark to design a lift there. This was completed in 1878 and survives as a historic monument. The design was also adopted for four lifts on the Canal du Centre at La Louvière in Belgium, but these were not completed until after Clark's death.JHB
