Overview
A cost transfer is a reallocation of costs after the initial transaction has occurred. Cost transfers
occur in the regular course of business for two reasons:
(1) to properly allocate multi-business unit expenses, and
(2) to correct clerical
or bookkeeping errors. Cost transfers are not appropriate for (1)
197
spending out an unused award budget,
(2) covering cost overruns,
(3) avoiding restrictions imposed by law or other agreements, or
(4) other reasons of convenience.

198
Any correction of income and/or expense items between Chartfields should be within two
(2) accounting periods (months) after the end of the accounting period in which the original
transaction was posted. Every effort should be made to record corrections in the fiscal year
in which the original entry occurred.
Federal regulations stipulate that appropriate justification must be documented for all correcting
entries (CE). Sufficient documentation includes the following: (1) justification as to why the
transfer is necessary; (2) that the charge is allowable and allocable, directly benefits the award,
and is within the period of availability;
168-0063
(3) that appropriate approvals are secured; and
)
(4) in the case of error, how the error will be avoided in the future.
According to the standard theory of argument structure, argument DPs merge directly with lexical
items of categories V, N, etc. to form new syntactic objects of the same category. Bowers (2004,
2010a,b) proposes an alternative theory in which all argument DPs are merged in the specifiers of
‘light verb’ categories of different types. I argue in this paper that a theory of this kind is given
000208696
80
direct support by the existence
of a range of non-event nominals in English whose
morphosyntactic and semantic properties correspond precisely to those of the basic argument
categories assumed by the theory. The proposed analysis, if correct, extends to derivational
000208962

morphology the claim of
Distributed Morphology (DM) (Halle and Marantz, 1993) that word
formation is syntactic, not lexical (Marantz, 1997; Embick, 2004; Harley, 2009), thereby making
syntax the only generative component of the grammar.

This specification affects all 000232950
function code 18 and 19 blocks in the segment. When S5 equals one,
the internal memory of all function code 18 and 19 blocks in the segment will follow the track input,
regardless of the status of the track release flag. A change in input is modified by proportional and
000917468

deriv- ative action, and is added to the track signal. This combined signal is the output.
Reset prevents controller windup. Reset windup may occur in batch systems where controllers may
000923827
91
be monitoring the con- trol variable but not performing any control action during the current step. In
other words, the output of the PID block is not used in the current step. The controller receives the
sig- nal, takes corrective action,
sees no result, and takes correc- tive action again. As long as the
000303551

controller receives no results from its control action, it continues corrective action. When the
controller is later called into services on some other step of the process, it is wound up so far beyond
the value of the controlled variable
that it cannot control it. The external reset option keeps the 43
000919103
controller aligned when it is not used for control functions.

and sells them on the public market, or directly to institutional investors. These securities are
known as Assets Backed Securities (ABS).
Usually ABS are assessed by credit rating agencies (e.g. Standard, Poor's, Moody's
2009). This raises the cost of capital, but nevertheless it is often used. The higher the rating, the
lower the rate of return demanded by investors. Therefore, if the assets have good quality and/or
the sufficient security is provided, the cost of funding is reduced (Kosinski 1997, p. 13).
In the next stage of the securitization process, ABS-s are offered to investors. Money
from the purchasers of the securities is transferred to SPV, which will then forward it to the
arranger of the transaction. Committed capital and interests are returned to investors from the
earnings related to accounts receivables. This phase is executed via the SPV. The maturity
date of securities issued in the securitization should be related to the maturity of the assets
pledged as security (Puterko, Puterko 2002, p. C4). Often there is also an appointed service
agent (servicer) - usually the arranger, whose task it is to handle receipts from debtors. Those
who wish to spice up offers apply additional safeguards related to the repayment of the
securitized receivables (credit and liquidity enhancement). In the case of occurrence of events
stored in the contract, such as delayed or non-payment of a specified proportion of claims, the
guarantor provides the money to meet the investors claims (Kosinski 1997, p. 13).

Change the mapping of000939149
the obsolete ISO 639 code mapping in Locale class to the current code.
000933642
20
Problem
Historically, constructors in java.util.Locale
class map three ISO 639 language codes, namely "he",
000929966
193 "ji", and
"id" to their obsolete codes; "iw", "yi", and "in" for backward compatibility. Although this solution works
well to accept both obsolete and current ISO 639 codes, constructed Locale object represents the obsolete
000912517
26
language code (i.e. Locale.getLanguage()
and Locale.toString() returns obsolete language codes),
which
looks as if the current language codes were not supported.

Solution
Flip the mapping from current->obsolete to obsolete->current. For example, mapping for Hebrew
changes from "he" -> "iw" to "iw"->"he". To provide the backward compatible behavior, a new system

Blockchain is the next wave of the Internet
Blockchain and crypto technologies has exploded in popularity as a once-in-a-generation
technology platform and economic opportunity. These technologies have the potential to
fundamentally change money, the financial system, and the Internet more broadly.
A decentralized Internet ecosystem built on blockchain technologies, where economic
value is delivered to the users of the products via tokens, is a monumental shift. What's
valuable and celebrated within the industry is also the open-sourced nature of the
underlying technology, which enables unparalleled security, access, and transparency.
One of the early and leading indicators of this emerging technology is in software
developer engagement - the more activity ("code commits") in the underlying software,
the more vibrant the ecosystem. Due to the open-sourced nature of blockchain
technology, it is possible to analyze developer activity by looking at the volume of code
commits and derive important trends about the industry.
That the U.S. is increasingly losing market share in blockchain software development
mean both that the developer community is getting bigger and more global, but there is
a real risk of losing the U.S.'s leadership position in finance, cryptography, and
distributed systems technologies. This presents a set of real strategic and national
security concerns for the United States.
The U.S. must move quickly to preserve preeminence in financial markets and related
technologies
1.
Jobs & Financial Impact: U.S. preeminence in blockchain software
development enables the U.S. to create jobs and fuel financial inclusion, as the
broader blockchain ecosystem continues to grow.
2.
Standards Influence: By designing new protocols, U.S. engineers define the
standards for financial systems and data systems. These are the SWIFT
and HTTP equivalents of the modern era. Losing market share means that
other countries can have larger influence over global financial and data
standards.
3.
National Security: The U.S. must shape development of new technology and
financial products to reflect American values and national security objectives.

public policy in science, technology, and innovation.
The future can be a better, more vibrant place, but we will need
significant technological breakthroughs to get there. To solve climate
change, cure diseases, prevent future pandemics, and improve living
standards across the globe we need continued scientific advancement
and technological improvements. The United States is particularly
well-positioned to drive these advancements because we are on the
frontier of knowledge ourselves. Even small changes to the way we
govern and incentivize science and technology can have long-run
consequences for the US and for the world.
To achieve the progressive goals we have for the future we need to
fundamentally evaluate how policy impacts the rate of progress. The
Innovation Frontier Project commissions research from talented
academics and regulatory experts around the world to bring new
