My long-suffering muggle family and friends might humour me for the first few times I declare 'there's a cache just over there on that railings,' almost taking their eye out with the sudden point of my finger, accompanied by an air of triumph, as if I have just pointed out an A-List celebrity getting out of a Range Rover. Much eye-rolling will ensue after the fourth or fifth GZ declaration.
You know it's time to go when the store manager approaches you and whispers in a soothing tone, "I'm sorry miss but we're closing", ever so gently ushering you towards the car. It's definitely a problem if you're in a 24 hour supermarket. But look at all the Lock & Locks! So pretty….
First of all, plenty of people now leave the house wearing pyjamas. Personally, I prefer to change out of the clothes I wear in bed before leaving the house, but all rules and sense of dignity go out the window when there is a blank logbook crying out for your geocaching username.
Nothing to do while your muggle half is shopping? Why not check out this railing outside just in case there's an archived/not yet published nano stuck on it?
"Do you have a pen?" "I have this geopen." "Where are you going on vacation this year?" "We're going on a geovacation to Portugal." Where there's a word, there's a 'geo' to be added to it.
Refer to initial humouring and subsequent eye-rolling in number 1 above.
Many of us have shed a tear for a travel bug we have watched leave home only to never return home again, condemned to the bottom of someone's geobag forever. So, when we find someone else's bug that wants to be photographed in specific locations or with specific items, we are only too happy to oblige. Completely normal behaviour and don't let any muggle tell you otherwise.
The number one rule of geocaching is to sign the logbook. To do this, you need a writing implement. Best to hide hundreds of them absolutely everywhere "just in case".
Altoids? No, I actually hate the taste of them. Empties entire contents in to the bin and goes off in search of a logsheet and some magnets.
Can you think of anything else geocachers do that muggles don't? Let me know in the comments!
Reblogged this on Icke, Neuberlinerin.
Sign your geonick on a credit card receipt.
Pretend to talk into their mobile when it's really a GPS just because muggles are passing GZ and you're still not any closer to finding the cache!
Crawling through shrubs in public parks arousing suspicion among muggles.
Constantly seeking out new hiding locations when in a new area – then thinking up a good name for it!
#13 – sees sticks and leaves laying around the yard and thinks they would be good camo.
#14 – has a stock pile of camo duct tape.
#15 – "flips off" railway cars which are generally points of interest in public parks (tanks too).
#16 – has a caching friend whose non-caching significant other is blessed with an uncanny ability to find tricky hides.
Have about twenty friends, that they don't even know their real names!
Becomes a fake photographer- arming oneself with an expensive camera just to look the part!
Or in my case, I just take along my son who is an actual photographer. No more having to explain what we're in weird places. He's a photographer and I'm not letting my 15 yr old son go to strange places by himself. Works out great.
…puts codes on cars, bracelets – even underwear…. and is happy as hell about every single log …..
Act like you're taking pictures of the area but really looking at your GPS on your phone.
Tying shoelaces 5 times in front of a park bench (and definitely not sitting on the bench), or "accidentally" dropping a pen or a coin on the ground.
Transforming the GPS into fancy technical equipment for "measuring magnetic fields" or "locating the source of electrostatic noise" at grey power boxes in the street.
Posing for an imaginary photographer 200 metres away, just to explain the awkward position standing on the toetips at a lamppost or hanging in a roadsign.
"Shooting artistic photos" from silly underbridge angles or from behind a mailbox – until the mugglers finally leave the place.
Parking the car at the road in the country side in the middle of absolutely nowhere and open stormy fields, just to visit that small white 12.2 km mark stick.
When a pair of high heeled shoes has no interest in the shoe store and you just aim towards the shelves containing walking boots and shoes.
When you visit a new town as Dublin or London and only sees the places where a cache is hiding. Last I visited London I went to several places where Jack the Ripper killed his victims. Not the usual sightseeings I think.
By the way I think I can relate to at least 10 of your 12 things.
I just realised – we met at my event in Bray in January, right?
Go out to get a cache at lunchtime and come back with sticks and leaves in your hair, dirty and dishevelled. Happy yes, but everyone at work cannot guess what you have been up to.
You nailed it! Guilty! of nearly every single one!
Actually, since people at work know about my caching "habit", they ALL know why I come back from lunch looking that way!
Oh what fun. I'm new to caching but not so new that I don't see the truth in all your points.
LOVE this post–and the comments are phenomenal! I have these moments when I describe geocaching and people give me this look like "Sure, there are really hidden boxes all over the place that I've never seen" and then walk quickly away to someone who looks saner!
Talk about distracted driving! Think "That'd be a great place to hide a cache." As I'm driving down the road.
Watch passing motorists slow down to a crawl because they think your GPS is a radar-gun!
Love the list; identify with everything! Greetings from New Brunswick, Canada.
When taking a vacation, choose a location that : a) is virgin territory for counties/DeLorme squares, b0 map out a route that will zigzag through as many new states, counties and Delorme grids as possible doubling the length the trip, c) has a challenge cache power run for most of which you have already qualified or d) is a power run mecca.
OOPs!, chubby nubs at work here. bo should be b) and c) should read "has a challenge cache power run most of which you have already qualified for. (should have reread before hitting send.
ROFL – Hysterical post and I am guilty of ALL of them. Please come over and visit my blog. I write quite a bit about geocaching too.
meet their future wife at a geowoodstock, ask her to marry me at the end of a mega event in front of over 2500 fellow geocachers, make the wedding a geoevent while making my dogs (who both have geonicks – myheine and 2themaxx,) the best geomen….and lest i forget, the wedding ceremony was performed by a fellow geocacher !
You keep a Baggie of geo goodies in each car.
I admit I got given a brand new handbag once that I thought was hideous. The first thing I did was extract the little sachet of silica gel so I could use it to keep a log book dry for longer. I then gave the bag to charity and sent a thank you letter to the giver. "I will put this to great use", referring, of course, to the silica gel.
I can't write the date without including my geo name.
Pointing out every bird house you see and say: oh look a cache! Just for fun because most bird house are way too high ?
Checks all bolts on nearby Street signs just in case they are a cache. Similar reaction with suspiciously places coins in dirt!
Whenever I'm going somewhere I've never been before I check to see what caches are in the area. When my boss told me our office was moving the first thing I checked was what caches were nearby!
1. Ask neighbors of a large senior community to leave empty mid-to-large sized, screw-top medication bottles in my newspaper box.
2. Figure out how to stop neighbors from leaving empty mid-to-large sized, screw-top medication bottles in my newspaper box.
3. Take cartons of cammo-taped mid-to-large sized, screw-top medication bottles to Geocaching Event for prizes.
4. Throw cartons of cammo-taped, mid-to-large sized, screw-top medication bottles into trash bin after Geocaching Events.
Explaining to muggles that you are helping to improve the Global Positioning System by conducting tests on finding test objects previously placed by other testers and that they can expect to see more people like myself because we have to test every type of device and make adjustments from time to time.
When you're in search of a geocache and muggles are walking by, you pretend that your trying to figure out what type of tree/plant that is.
Look at everything as a potential hide container.
When you get excited over a large size cache.
Know all the local police officers because they have all stopped you wondering what you are doing.
My granddaughter was looking on a bank in a country lane in Devon for a cache , when a tracter stopped and turned in to the gate next to where she was looking , the drivers asked her if she wasok and what was she doing , she politly replied "I am looking for a time box that I buried here many years ago I want to add things to it " the two men said there is nothing here as this ground was flat last year and we dug it over and built up the bank , but my granddaughter said it must be here as I put it here myselve . The men started to help her look , we were sat in the car waitong for her wondering what she was going to say next and laughing our heads off ,.in the end the men said , oh I think we will leave you to it .
It was even funnier when we realized we were in the wronge lane .
HAHAHA you nailed it. I was going down the list going, "yup, yup, yup, yup" glad I'm not the only one.
Hide a TB Hotel in front of your office so you can get all the travelers out of your desk drawer.
While searching for a geocache off a walking trail, I had my young son, then age 4, pretend he was going to go pee in the woods, so muggles would stop watching us and pass by, so we could get the cache.
– Take a quick look at almost every vehicle to check if there is a travel bug (with code) on it.
Keep any container that may come in handy to hide a geocache in one day.
Sitting on wet park benches to inconspicuously check out, if there's a cache hidden beneath it.
Go out in horrible weather to look for geocaches because 1. less chance that muggles will see you and 2. you want to.
omg,I score 10 out of 12! Does that make me a geo-nerd? ?
in every pocket you find a pen you also find a tweezer. LOL.
Lift random lamp post skirts looking for caches.
Hang out in the party section of the dollar stores looking at all the potential swag items.
Portugal is a beautiful country, there are a lot of beautiful places to visit, big cities like Porto and Lisbon, but some rural places which are so so beautiful and they have caches too.
If you plan carefully, you can get Portugal, Spain, Gibraltar and Morocco in one trip. (There are day excursions to North Africa from Spain).
Then there is the situation where 2 geocachers start talking in a 'business' meeting about their latest finds and completely confusing everyone else!
Wish some of my colleagues were geocachers – they just glaze over when I talk about my finds ?
I have to go caching in Norway sometime!
Looking at a area and thinking "That would be a great spot fior a Cache !" And checking to see if there is one there.
What Only Geocachers Do: When suddenly approached by a muggle they pretend that they are looking for a "lost" key. How embarrassing when the muggle joins you searching. But how nice that you have met a helpful person.
Guilty! 10 out of 12 (if you don't count gym trousers for no. 4)!
Give sophisticated explanation of a certain rock type to an astound muggle, cause you know that from a previous Earthcache.
Oh yes I've been there!! 'Things only EarthCachers do' ?
Agree to drive for summer vacation from MD to UT and back because you have bartered for a stop to get Mingo and at least one cache in every state you drive through!
As an elementary Secretary, you claim all leftover trinket incentive prizes from the recent fundraiser as well as the unclaimed lost and found box at the end of the school year for the gallon plastic jug of swag in the back of my van.
We're all that weird employee who geocaches I guess… unless the boss is a geocacher too!!
Oh, never thought of number 12… Thanks!
Will see after next weeks food shopping… There is a possibility malnourishment may be a side effect of snazzy new cache containers.
Ignore a million emails that come through but the minute you get one that says Geocaching you drop everything to open it and read it's contents.
Talking to an imaginary friend on an imaginary phone (the GPS) waiting for a muggle to go away.
Stopping to pick up random pieces of driftwood/small logs along the road when walking the dog, to see if they would make good 'natural' caches.
Coming home from 'running errands' looking like I've wrestled a cat and lost, from looking for a geocache that required some bushwacking.
I've come back to the office from lunch break like that!
Willing to drive hundreds of miles out of our way on vacation just to add a new state to our stats map.
Carry a clipboard and pretend you're actually inspecting the trees, bridge, park bench or lamppost when a muggle walks by.

In parliamentary procedure, a motion for division of a question is used to separate a motion into a set of motions.

History
The concept of a division of a question dates back to at least 1640, when the Lex Parliamentaria noted, "If a Question upon a Debate contains more Parts than one, and Members seem to be for one Part, and not for the other; it may be moved, that the same may be divided into two, or more Questions: as Dec. 2, 1640, the Debate about the Election of two Knights was divided into two Questions."

Explanation and use
A motion for division of a question is used to split a motion into separate motions which are debated and voted on separately.

According to Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised (RONR), this motion is applicable when each of the different parts, although relating to a single subject, is capable of standing as a complete proposition without the others. The motion is made by saying, for instance, "I move to divide the resolution so as to consider separately...."

A motion to divide the question is not required when a single motion seeks approval of a series of propositions or resolutions on different subjects.  Any member may obtain separate discussion and voting on any of the unrelated propositions or resolutions by making a demand for separate consideration, at any time before the unified motion is put to a vote.

Examples
In the British House of Commons, a formal motion is not required to divide the question; since 1888, the Speaker has held that a question consisting of two or more propositions, each of which is able to stand on its own, can be divided on the objection of any Member of Parliament.

In the European Parliament, the division of a question is known as split voting and may be requested by a political group or at least 40 members, when "the text to be put to the vote contains two or more provisions or references to two or more points[...]". The members of parliament will consequently vote on each provision separately.

Related motions
Consideration by paragraph, consider by parts, or consider seriatim are names for a similar motion whereby a complex motion is broken up to be deliberated part by part.  Each part is considered tentatively and amended as necessary, then the whole motion is considered and voted on as a whole.  This differs from the motion to divide a question which splits the motion into two or more independent motions that are taken up in sequence.  Each new motion is deliberated and voted upon before taking up the next part.

Division of the question is not to be confused with division of the assembly, which is a call for a rising vote.

I am very sorry to learn this news. He really was a unique person! In the name of The Asociacion Argentina de Criadores de Caballos Arabes, and in my own, my most sincere and warm thoughts to his family and to all WAHO members.
On behalf of myself, of Mr. Ibrahim Al-Subaie and the staff at the Royal Arabian studs of Bahrain at the Breeding Station, we extend our Sorrowful Condolences to Mrs. Stream and family. Though his body departs from us, his spirit is always with us and the Arabian Horses. May God bless his soul.
Please allow us to reiterate our sentiments expressed earlier in our Letter of Condolence. We will never forget the encouragement and help offered to us in the beginning stages of our Registry and thereafter by Jay Stream, the few times we were privileged to meet face to face. His memory will always represent the quintessence of "The Arabian Horse", perpetuated in WAHO and all Member Countries as he envisioned.
Please accept my condolences for Mr. Stream. It is distressing to hear that he is not with us any more. I will always remember him as a kind, charismatic, funny and fair man, who helped to us to join the WAHO world. We'll miss him!
We are very sorry for this news and would like to send his family our sincere condolences. This is a big loss for WAHO and all its members.
I was grieved to hear the news of the death of Jay Stream, establisher President of WAHO. It is a great loss to all of us. Mr Stream had always followed the Arabian horse breeding in Bábolna with great attention. We were personally convinced of his professional calling in the breeding of purebred Arabians. We revere and still keep the photos made during his visitation in Bábolna.
Please accept our deep sorrow for the loss of Mr. Jay Stream, the father of WAHO.
It was with deep sadness and great sorrow I read your letter about the passing away of our dear friend Mr. Jay Stream, the WAHO President Emeritus. I'm sure we have all lost, as you exactly rightly said, WAHO's 'founding father'. He was really a very good friend, successful leader, and successful father for WAHO family members. Words can't describe our sadness for this big loss.
I am sorry to hear about Jay's death. I met him first in 1998 at the Bahrain Conference and found him just the way you described him in your letter telling us the sad news. The WAHO family will miss him, but he will live on in the memories of many of us.
I was very sad to hear about Jay. He was indeed a character, and very necessary for the establishment of WAHO – which helped us all immeasurably in setting up registries with rules accepted worldwide. Without WAHO it would have been a much harder battle to get the Arabian recognized in much of its original homeland in modern times as a valuable asset and piece of living history. We will remember him fondly.
It is with a deep sorrow that we received the news about the passing away of Mr. Jay Stream following a short illness. Please accept our sincere condolences extended to all the "WAHO family" for the loss of Mr. Jay Stream, who has efficiently promoted the Purebred Arabian horses all over the world and confirmed himself as a universal father to us all. Please also convey our sympathies to Mrs. Dorothy Stream and her family.
Nabil Nasrallah, General Manager, S.P.A.R.C.A.
It is really a great loss for all who knew Mr. Jay Stream. On behalf of our Lithuanian Association, we express our sincere condolences to his family and the WAHO organization and hope that the memory of this outstanding person will be eternalized by his works for WAHO.
I present my sincere condolences for the death of the great man Jay Stream. May God have his name in his misericorde saint.
It is with sadness following the death of Jay that I present, on my behalf, in the name of the members of the Royal Moroccan Arabian Horse Breeders Association, and all the Breeders of the Arabian Horse in Morocco, my condolences to his wife Dorothy and to his family.
We were really shocked by the very sad news of the sudden death of Jay Stream, the man who made WAHO a remarkable organization. With deep sorrow we convey to Mrs. Stream and to all the members of WAHO our deepest condolences. No doubt WAHO has lost a genuine, kind and hardworking man who was unique in every respect. The best thing we can do to commemorate him is to keep going on along the path he has set. His good deeds really deserve support from everyone who knew him or worked with him.
We feel thoroughly touched by the sad and tragic information that Jay Stream, WAHO President Emeritus, has passed away. On behalf of the Polish Jockey Club and the Registry Office of the Polish Arabian Stud Book I should like to pass to WAHO the expressions of our deepest sorrow and concern.
We should not hesitate to name Jay Stream the Father of WAHO. His great passion, dedication, strength and consequence made the Arabian horse world-unified under the WAHO flag irrespectively of the geographic and political borders. Thanks to Jay Stream the Arabian horse breed became universally known and respected.
We wish to present our most sincere condolences to Mrs. Dorothy Stream, to their daughter and to all who loved him. Jay Stream will stay forever in our thoughts and memory as the exceptional and unique personality. May he Rest in Peace.
The Romanian Pure Arabian breeders and lovers, with sadness have received the news about Jay W. Stream passing away. He will remain for ever in our mind as a very special man, who was dedicated all his life to the Arabian horses of everywhere.
It is with great sorrow that we learned about the death of Mr. Jay Stream. It is a blow to the industry, to his friends, to his family. He will long be remembered, as WAHO and Jay Stream was always one word. His commitment and dedication, his deep knowledge of the industry, his wisdom and kindness will always be in our hearts, in the hearts of the WAHO 'family'. Please accept the deepest sympathy of the Russian horsemen who loved and respected him.
With great sorrow we learned that Jay Stream passed away. All Russian horse breeders involved in breeding wonderful Arabian horses knew Jay Stream as an extraordinary man and outstanding specialist of world level, as WAHO President he did so much for the creation and activity of this organization. He did very much through his knowledge, dedication, and good will to the world community of Arabian horse breeders. His principle to treat everyone as equal without discrimination encouraged many Registries from different countries to become Members of WAHO. Thanks to Jay Stream's commitment and hard work, the number of WAHO Registry Members increased to 70. His help to the Russian Arabian Stud Book was really great. The name of Jay Stream, irreplaceable man, will be in the history of world Arabian horse breeding for ever. We send our condolences and best wishes to Mrs. Dorothy Stream, and to the WAHO President and Executive Committee.
Like everyone, I am very sad about the death of Jay Stream. He was a friend of all of ours, and truly a friend to the Arabian horse. WAHO has become a very important unifying Organization. Saudi Arabia and I are proud to be a part of the family that he worked so long and hard to develop. He will always be the unforgettable force behind the Organization. My sincere condolences to the WAHO family on the passing of Mr. Jay Stream.
I am very sorry to learn of the death of Mr. Jay Stream. He was truly a visionary and friend of the Arabian horse. Saudi Arabia will always be grateful to him and to WAHO for their support. I offer my most sincere condolences to the entire WAHO family.
We have received the sad notice that Jay Stream passed away. In the name of all Spanish Stud Book employees we would like to send our condolences and express our pleasure to have had the opportunity to have known him.
We are extremely sad to learn about the loss of Mr. Jay Stream, the President of WAHO for more than 30 years and a very special, kind and unique person. His passing is a great loss to us all, as the members of the Horse world. As the Jockey Club of Turkey, we extend our sincerest condolences at this sad time to all his family, friends, colleagues and the WAHO family.
On behalf of the Council of the Arab Horse Society of Great Britain and Ireland, I am writing to ask if you would kindly pass on to the Executive Committee and members of WAHO the sympathy of us all on the passing of Jay Stream. We also hope that Dorothy is well supported at this difficult time. The founding of WAHO was an inspiration and has resulted in countries worldwide working together to ensure the easy import and export of Arabian horses. Through the foresight of the founding members and in particular the driving force of Jay Stream, the world has become smaller and the biennial conferences give people a chance to talk and work together for the future of the Arabian Horse. I only met Jay Stream once, in Australia, and found him to be a colourful and interesting man with great humour. WAHO will be the poorer without him but I am sure he would be happy knowing that it is continuing so strongly and that this year the conference is going to the centre of the Desert Arabian which is so exciting for so many members.
Jay Stream was a bold and innovative man. The International Arabian Horse Association was brought from local to national prominence under his leadership, now the entire Arabian community has lost a great leader. It was a privilege to know him.
Karen Learmonth, Secretary of our Arab Horse Society, has told us the sad news that Jay Stream has passed away. Please could I ask you to pass on our sincere condolences to his wife Dorothy and family on behalf of the Arab Horse Society of Zimbabwe and personally from Dave and myself. It was an honour to have met such a strong 'statesman' with such devotion and a great character.
It is with great sorrow that I read about Jay passing away. He was a remarkable President and I shall always remember him. In one of my first WAHO meetings I was deeply impressed how seriously but with a twist of humour he addressed Mary Gharagozlou about her Khuzestan horses application for registration asil saying " Mary, are you sure about from which side of the mountain these horses came"? He got to simplify difficult questions always trying to make one feel comfortable. I believe we should keep his example not to stress too much our egoistic feelings and to look for new horizons to enjoy our heritage.
With the passing of Jay Stream, a great man has left the stage of the world-wide Arabian Horse Community. That it is possible to talk today about a "world-wide community" is entirely due to his efforts. For so long the idea to unite all Arabian studbooks and breeders under one umbrella and to create an overall accepted Definition for the pure-bred Arabian had occupied some of the best minds in the business. But there was so much divergence of opinion it had proved impossible – there were suspicions and mistrust which were usually strongly defended and deeply planted into the minds of many registries and breeders. All that was to change when a small number of optimists from different countries joined together to create an international association with the name of "World Arabian Horse Organization" (WAHO). Their choice of Jay Stream as chairman of the Steering Committee was to become a blessing for all Arabian horse breeders world-wide.
His clear knowledge, relentless dedication to fulfil his obligations, his perfect conceptual way of thinking and remarkable willpower, paired with his inimitable humour, turned out to be the necessary requirements of a leader who could overcome all the previous obstacles to unity. It did not happen overnight, but our first President, Jay Stream, was a man who always ensured that he followed through to the desired goal. He was gifted with the ability to deal successfully with all of the people and the obstacles they presented in a very admirable but also decisive manner. WAHO remains primarily his creation and he put it on a footing which is guided by co-operation between registries and tolerance between breeders. He created WAHO in a unique style which demands respect and gave this Organization an ongoing high international status on the public stage.
Behind the scenes, Jay Stream was able to listen and to accept corrections, but he also could reproach and surprisingly easily forgive. Vis-à-vis the public, he appeared as a great entertainer and he always made sure that he was right. People had to accept this, but also all the majority soon came to realise that this unique persona of Jay's was the only way to achieve what had to be achieved. All those efforts over more than 30 years of his dedication to WAHO have created a solid platform on which our members can continue to rest securely. Enthusiasm for the Arabian horse and tolerance among the international community of registries, owners, breeders and Arabian horse lovers should never be lost. This we all owe to our unforgettable friend, Jay W. Stream.
I first met Jay and Dorothy Stream when I was in my early 20's in 1971 at the Stream's Greengate Arabian Horse farm in California. I was immediately struck about how different Jay was to most people I had met in my short life. He came across as full of confidence and a presence that demanded great respect. I was at the end of an around the World trip at that time so had come across various other members of WAHO when in the United Kingdom and Europe, I had also just joined WAHO as an individual member whilst in the UK. I was impressed by Jay and thought that he was an outstanding President for such an organization as WAHO and he was certainly the person that WAHO needed as President. He always defended the Arabian Horse, its purity and the principles of WAHO vigorously. I was fortunate to represent our own Australian Arabian Horse Society at WAHO conferences for many years and then, as President of our Society, to work with Jay on the 2 WAHO conferences that have been held in Australia, in 1984 and 2000. I always found him a delight to work with on those occasions. Jay was a most influential President of WAHO and each Conference meeting I attended was always full of interest with him as President. Jay was always very interested in the people around him at any point in time and engaged in conversation with everyone. He was always full of interesting stories which not only were entertaining but were often educational. Jay was a great President and friend of WAHO and I, and I am sure the WAHO family, will certainly miss him. I wish Dorothy and her family all my best at this time.
I found Jay a larger than life figure with tremendous charisma. I only knew him personally for a relatively short while as a member of the Executive Committee, although we had contact over many years at WAHO Conferences. He welcomed me onto the Executive Committee as an equal, and was very supportive when I was elected Treasurer. A WAHO Executive Committee chaired by Jay was like no other meeting, he held us all together through his example of fairness and friendship, and we had many amusing moments in between the more serious business of the meetings. He was always a ready 'teller of tales' of his early days with WAHO, and of his long life with Arabian Horses. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him.
When I heard the news that Jay had passed away, I was deeply affected. I attended my first WAHO Meeting in 1980, when I was there to present our Uruguay Arabian Stud Book for approval, and I found there a very strong man – Jay Stream. He told us that if we presented the Executive Committee with our stud book the next day, with a stamp saying "Not Accepted by WAHO" on all the Shagya horses which were at that time included in the same volume, then WAHO would accept our stud book. That day happened to be a Saturday. So we found someone to make us the stamp, and we worked throughout the night stamping hundreds of pages to correct our stud book. The next day, Sunday, we presented the amended stud book. True to Jay's word, our Stud Book was accepted by WAHO.
From that day on, Jay and I became friends, and after a time he invited me onto the Executive Committee first as a Consultant, then as a full member. I feel very much that he was WAHO's father, and in everything he did and in all his years as our President, he was a strong leader with the firm and visionary objective to create a world breeder's family for the Arabian horse community. He trusted in the South American stud books and in the South American breeders, and we trusted him in return. He never wavered from his position that the South American stud books, and all the Arabian horses registered in them, should be accepted by all WAHO Member countries without restriction. So for that, for his friendship over the years and for everything he did for our Arabian horses, not just in South America but world-wide, I would like to say – "Thank You Jay".
Although I had been a member of WAHO since 1974, I had only ever known Jay Stream in his official capacity as President. It was not until the spring of 1998 when I was in California that I first got to know the real Jay. I was invited to his and Dorothy's home to see their Arabian horses and have dinner. During the few hours I spent there it was so apparent how much this man loved his horses; how faithful he was to WAHO and its members; how loyal he was to his family and friends; how devoted he was to his wife Dorothy. During the evening we talked a lot about the Arabian horse industry and in particular, since this was something I knew a lot about, how Arabian racing had grown and developed. Jay wanted to know as much about it as possible in order to address any problems that might in future come before the Executive Committee. He then invited me to join the Executive Committee, as he felt someone with knowledge of the international Arabian racing scene would be useful to WAHO, and I gladly accepted. My first General Assembly as an EC Member was in Bahrain in 1998. I become aware at this meeting that Jay treated the Executive Committee as part of his family. The warmth and affection that he showed towards every single one of us was matchless. He was witty, funny and loved to tell a story. He was unselfish, a man who cared very much about people. He would be very hurt when he had to make a serious decision that he knew would upset others. But his decisions were all made in the interest of the Arabian horse. His passion for the Arabian horse worldwide was second to none. Without him and his beloved WAHO the Arabian horse would not have the standing in the world it has today.
I met Jay Stream at the WAHO Conference of 1982 for the first time. I like to remember the WAHO conference in Sydney, where I was making a very strong point defending the stallion Sharkasi, and the first volume of the Saudi Arabian stud book. After I was done Jay turned and looked at me and said "Dr. Zaghloul, I admire you!". From that very moment my admiration for him grew as well and so began a long and true friendship with him and his charming wife Dorothy. We have lost an honest and true man, a true friend in the time that true men and such friends are rare. At the 1992 WAHO Conference in Egypt I introduced Jay and asked him to proceed, referring to him as the "WAHO Maestro". He was truly a natural leader of men, and one could listen to him speak all day and wonder where the time had gone. He was so knowledgeable and interesting. WAHO was Jay and Jay was WAHO. No member of WAHO will ever forget Jay. God bless his soul.
I will always remember Jay as one of the greatest people that I have met in my life. Like all great people he gave the example not only by his words but most effectively by what he did and practiced. He managed to destroy all the barriers that separated people from each other, uniting them in achieving what was beneficial for all of them as a result of co-operation and understanding. With all the love and goodness he gave us all in the Arabian horse family around the world, Jay deserves our deep love and prayers.
This is indeed sad news. The world of Arabian horses will never be the same again, his contribution to WAHO can never be emulated by anyone and his dedication to establish WAHO was just outstanding. I will miss him as a friend and a tremendous source of advice and down to earth commonsense.
When I think about Jay, it is always with a smile. His great intelligence and stamina, together with his sense of humor, made him unique. Only someone as strong in character as Jay could get all the Registries of the World together and integrate them into one entity. He worked closely with his Executive Committee colleagues from around the world on the "making" of WAHO. It is gratifying to think how many important people have stood next to Jay over the decades, supporting him with the same vision, passion and motivation as he had, especially in those difficult early years when WAHO still had to be consolidated.
The first WAHO Conference I attended took place in Hamburg back in 1978, when I was sent by the Argentine Registry as their Delegate, with the specific task of telling the Assembly that "the Arabian Horses of South America should be reinstalled as an approved source, since they were as pure as others." Accordingly, during the meeting, I asked for the floor. Jay announced "Argentina"… and I spoke my piece. But when he heard what I had to say, he spoke out and said "Sit down, you trouble maker!" I could not believe my ears, I was speechless. It was my first Conference and I had never seen Mr. Stream before.
A few years later my co-delegate, Marta Cossio, made a very important study on the South American horses that was called "In Search of Justice". I went to see Doug Marshall, who was then the President of the American Horse Registry of America. Then I went to visit Jay in San Luis Obispo. We chatted and discussed the issue of purity at length and I left the document with him. Not long afterwards, Jay asked me to join the Executive Committee. He was the kind of man who, when he knew he had to change his way of thinking, he did it at once. Thereafter, WAHO and especially Jay became the greatest defenders of our cause, because he understood that the South American horses were as pure as many others.
Now that Jay has left us, we have the task to continue his legacy and to retain the vision he had of the unity of the Arabian horse world.
I first met Jay Stream in the year 1974 at the WAHO Executive Committee meeting in London. A year earlier I had started working for the Horse Breeding Department of the Poland's State Studs as an inspector of the Arabian horse studs, being responsible at that time also for the stud books and international organisations including WAHO. I used to accompany Director Andrzej Krzyształowicz to the WAHO Executive Committee meetings as his assistant and interpreter. I remember my very first impression when Jay came into the meeting room and started his opening speech. His personality filled up the room. – he was radiating enormous strength and passion. The way he was formulating his thoughts was so logical and persuasive. I realised then that WAHO was his life goal and like his own child – the dearest object of his expectations, promises and love.
At that time I was the only woman sitting in between those honourable members of what was then like a "gentlemen only" club and I was making heroic efforts to understand all the different variations of English accents as the Executive Committee members were from all over the world. Jay understood my feelings and treated me like his daughter with soft warmness and understanding. Every time when he saw me the large smile came up on his face and still to-day I can feel the cordial greetings of his warm hands.
In 1988 when I was invited to join the WAHO Executive Committee, Jay gave me a hug, looked straight in my eyes and said: "I trust you as I trusted Andrew (Andrzej) Krzysztalowicz". I will never forget that moment. Jay Stream embodied the history of WAHO, it is as if a large part of the history of the Arabian breed and a part of ourselves has also passed away.
In the USA there is an expression, "If a tree falls in the forest and there is nobody around to hear it, does it make a sound?" That expression came to my mind as I heard the news that Jay had died. I thought about how still things might seem to Jay at death and what a big sound he had made all his life. Jay was such a huge part of my life. To start working with him so many years ago, helping him with the International Arabian Horse Association, WAHO and on matters concerning his own Arabian horses was a dream come true for me. Dorothy and Jay's farm in San Luis Obispo is a splendid, very practical horse operation. I lived there for 11 years between the sea and the mountains and saw year after year the exquisite mares have their foals. Jay had wound up his entertainment career of managing Wayne Newton, but the stories remained, as did his love of aircraft. He had a great sense of humor and loved to laugh. There was a hilarious little giggle that would come from that physically huge man. That in itself was enough to set everyone else off laughing. The love of the Arabian horse was seared so deeply in Jay. He was passionate about the horses and travelling the world and meeting other Arabian horse people was his pleasure. He spent massive amounts of time, energy and money promoting the Arabian horse and ensuring that the breed was well taken care of. When he met Ian Hedley and Ronald Kydd in England, he found kindred spirits and his direction for the Arabian horse was galvanized. I am honored to have served WAHO under his tenure and grateful for all the wonderful friends that came into my life forever. Through his political support of Governor, then President Ronald Reagan, Jay loved to tell the story that he had been offered a post as an ambassador for the United States and that he could pick his posting. He'd start giggling as he'd tell this story and say, "How could I choose one nation, when I can mess up the whole world with WAHO?!". Jay will now know the answer to the question, his falling has made a tremendous sound.
I consider myself fortunate indeed to have worked for Jay as WAHO's Executive Secretary for the last 7 years of his 3 decades as President. Working with and for Jay was like no other previous experience. Although I was in UK and he was in USA, we spoke nearly every day on the phone, and each conversation was a delight in its own way. As all his friends will know, Jay was a master raconteur with a wealth of funny, entertaining or interesting true stories about his life, about his travels for WAHO, about the people he knew and the horses he loved, and I was always a ready listener. I can still hear that famous giggle of his as I write this. I treasured every moment spent with him. Jay was the greatest of mentors, for he entertained, enthralled, educated, and encouraged in equal measure. I learned an immeasurable amount from him, not just about Arabian horses, but about life in general. I particularly enjoyed watching his interaction with other people from all walks of life, he was genuinely interested in everyone he met. At the WAHO Conference in Australia, I recall one particular hotel waiter who was assigned to Jay's table on the first morning. As usual, Jay was soon in bantering conversation with him and before long had found out all about the young man's background and his future plans and ambitions. Thereafter this waiter looked out for Jay at every meal and even came in to work specially on his day off, just to spend a bit more time with him. That was the effect Jay had on people – they would go the extra mile for him, because they knew instinctively that he would do the same for them. People like Jay are rare indeed, I feel truly privileged to have worked for this unique man, I will think of him often and I will be one of the very many people from every corner of the world who will miss him greatly.
I was deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Jay Stream. My thoughts are with his family, friends and WAHO colleagues.
This is really sad news. Jay Stream was "Mr. WAHO" for me since I was a child. I can't imagine WAHO without him. He has done so much and his work was very much appreciated here in Europe. My sympathy to his family and his friends.
It is with great sadness that we learned of the passing of Jay Stream. He was a great man and a friend to many. His contribution to WAHO and the Arabian Horse will remain a legacy forever treasured. I personally will always keep him in my heart for his support of our work with the ACCCA. Out of my love for the Arabian Horse I have made the deepest and best friendships of my life, none of this would have been possible without Jay.
I just heard about Mr. Stream passing away and it has saddened me much. I am really sorry for what has happened, he was larger than life. My deepest condolences to Mrs. Stream, to his family, and to WAHO.
It is with a great sorrow that I learned of the death of our dear friend Jay. I present on my behalf, in the name of my family and all the employees of the Royal Stud Farm of Bouznika, my saddened condolences to his dear wife Dorothy, his small family and his great family, that of the Arabian Horse in the world.
What can I say in the face of such a loss? I am deeply touched and present my condolences to his family and to the family of the WAHO and to all the friends of the Arabian horse in the world. Indeed, knowing the richness that he brought to the world Arabian horse fraternity and having myself experienced his prolific contribution to this extraordinary world-wide success, I can only bow to his memory. It is an honour to be among those that will carry the flame to continue his work. I will ask our Association to hold a Minute's Silence in Jay's memory at our forthcoming Show on 12 February 2006.
I was saddened to read of the passing of Jay Stream, a one-of-a-kind character who was single-mindedly devoted to guaranteeing the safe future of the purebred Arabian horse. It was a privilege to meet him at various WAHO functions. He was simply a guy who rolled up his sleeves and got things done – sometimes the seemingly impossible. And he always said what was on his mind – (and sometimes had to bite his tongue afterwards). As one of the founding fathers of WAHO, Jay built both an efficient organization and a "safe haven" that allows Arabian breeders and lovers from around the world to gather under one roof as colleagues, no matter what their personal politics or religions, and no matter what is grabbing headlines in the outside world. I am proud to say that some of my closest friends around the globe are friends that I met through WAHO – friends who share my love for the Arabian horse that it would have been impossible to meet otherwise. Participating in WAHO functions is always an extraordinary experience because it shows us what is possible for humankind; that when we share a common passion, we transcend our so-called differences, and can accept and love one another simply as human beings. WAHO is an appropriate model for a world where peace, tolerance, and acceptance are freely shared among all mankind. What an amazing legacy! What an amazing human being. My deepest sympathy to the Stream family and all who loved him. There will never be another Jay Stream. May God bless his soul and memory.
Jay Stream, in this turbulent world, created and led an amazing international organization that peacefully united people of different cultures, religions and political backgrounds around the common goal – welfare of the Arabian horse. Poland should never forget Jay's personal involvement in the recognition of the Polish Arabian Stud Book. This has opened ways to bring Polish horses back into the international scene. Jay has joined his Polish friends: Andrzej Krzysztalowicz and Ignacy Jaworowski in the "better world", where, I believe, good people have fine horses to enjoy. I trust we all will meet him there.
It is very sad for us all in Russia who had the privilege of knowing Jay Stream to hear about his death. With sincere condolences.
I didn't know Jay Stream that well but he impressed me, being a very jovial man with a huge personality, he will be missed.
I had a great amount of affection for Jay. Not many people understood our relationship. Although we had differences, we had many more things in common. He was an articulate and worthy adversary when he had to be but also someone I enjoyed engaging in "lengthy discussions". My condolences.
I am so very sorry to hear this, I really loved that man. I respected so much what he did, nobody else ever came close. We had our differences, but then we all do, such were through misunderstanding. This industry has lost a great man, a legend, and no-one can take his place, nobody has his courage, fairness and straight forwardness. He is my hero.
I feel fortunate to have known Jay Stream. He was a hero to me. He left a legacy in his contributions to the Arabian horse that will endure in time and benefit many generations and horsemen around the world.
Jay Stream was a man who commanded respect, never demanding it. He recognized good ideas and took action by getting involved and provided leadership to enable them to become reality. He leveraged his experiences in life to achieve greatness and etch his memory forever in the Arabian horse world. His compelling demeanour, firm grasp on the task at hand and his strong belief that you have to earn trust to be trusted formed the basis of relationships with him. Jay had a positive impact on the lives of many people – in the many interviews I have done, person after person revealed to me how influential and important Jay was for them and to the Arabian Horse Breed. His impact on the Arabian horse breed will be evident for centuries; people not yet born will be thankful and marvel at the dedication and accomplishments of this man. He was the right man at the right place who joined with like minded people to move the breed forward. I am thankful and grateful that Jay and Dorothy Stream took the time for me to interview them in 1999. Jay seized the moment and recognized this was his chance to tell his story in his own words, the way he wanted to be remembered. I will miss Jay as will thousands of others who knew him and had the pleasure of building a relationship with him. I will also be constantly aware of the principles and ethics he lived by and like he said to me "Never once did an Arabian Horse come to me with a problem, only people".
I'm so sorry to hear about Jay. I've known him for over 35 years from the early days of WAHO. He will be very much missed.
So sorry to hear about the death of Jay Stream. He was such a dynamic and unique person.
Jay Stream was my friend for over 35 years. I met Jay in 1970 at one of the first IAHA Judges' Seminars. As the years rolled by I had the unique opportunity to work with Jay on several projects for the Arabian horse. His uncanny ability to see the future and never lose sight of the end goals was an inspiration to me. Jay was one of a kind. His devotion to the Arabian horse is unsurpassed. Farewell, Jay Stream! May you be found riding some of your beloved Arabians forever in the hereafter. A better friend the Arabian horse has never had.
It is with sadness we received the news that Jay Stream had passed away. We didn't know him well, but respected him for all the work he has done for the Arabian Horse and as President of WAHO. We felt he was an honest and a good person.
We first met Jay and Dorothy Stream in 1963, while showing at an Arabian Horse Show in Madison, Wisconsin. It was an amazing "instant" friendship.
It was great fun as my husband Paul laughed and talked with Jay, as they told stories about Arabian hroses. When Jay went to leave, he said to me "I will be back tomorrow, so remember my name". Sure enough, the next morning he was there, big smile on his face and said, "Do you remember me"? I proudly said, "Yes, you are Mr. Creek". He laughed so hard, and I was so embarrassed, but his big bear hug let me know I had his forgiveness.
Our 5 children loved Jay, and he was so kind to them. We are California farmers, and have always loved Arabian horses. If not for our Noble Breed, we would never have met this truly great man. When Dorothy called, I could not make my heart and mind stop the sadness. We will never forget this kind, great, humorous man, and all the special friends we met through his beloved WAHO.

Home Alexis Ada Reference Manual Section 1: General 1.1 Scope
1.1.2 Structure
Submitted by Alexis Wilke on Sun, 01/09/2011 - 19:50
1 This International Standard contains thirteen sections, fourteen annexes, and an index.
2 {core language} The core of the Ada language consists of:
3 Sections 1 through 13
4 Annex A, "Predefined Language Environment"
5 Annex B, "Interface to Other Languages"
6 Annex J, "Obsolescent Features"
7 {Specialized Needs Annexes} {Annex (Specialized Needs)} {application areas} The following Specialized Needs Annexes define features that are needed by certain application areas:
8 Annex C, "Systems Programming"
9 Annex D, "Real-Time Systems"
10 Annex E, "Distributed Systems"
11 Annex F, "Information Systems"
12 Annex G, "Numerics"
13 Annex H, "High Integrity Systems"
14 {normative} {Annex (normative)} The core language and the Specialized Needs Annexes are normative, except that the material in each of the items listed below is informative:
15 Text under a NOTES or Examples heading.
16 Each clause or subclause whose title starts with the word "Example" or "Examples".
17 All implementations shall conform to the core language. In addition, an implementation may conform separately to one or more Specialized Needs Annexes.
18 {informative} {non-normative: See informative} {Annex (informative)} The following Annexes are informative:
19 Annex K, "Language-Defined Attributes"
20 Annex L, "Language-Defined Pragmas"
21 M.2, "Implementation-Defined Characteristics"
22 Annex N, "Glossary"
23 Annex P, "Syntax Summary"
23.a Discussion: The idea of the Specialized Needs Annexes is that implementations can choose to target certain application areas. For example, an implementation specifically targeted to embedded machines might support the application-specific features for Real-time Systems, but not the application-specific features for Information Systems.
23.b The Specialized Needs Annexes extend the core language only in ways that users, implementations, and standards bodies are allowed to extend the language; for example, via additional library units, attributes, representation items (see 13.1), pragmas, and constraints on semantic details that are left unspecified by the core language. Many implementations already provide much of the functionality defined by Specialized Needs Annexes; our goal is to increase uniformity among implementations by defining standard ways of providing the functionality.
23.c/2 {AI95-00114-01} We recommend that the certification procedures allow implementations to certify the core language, plus any set of the Specialized Needs Annexes. We recommend that implementations not be allowed to certify a portion of one of the Specialized Needs Annexes, although implementations can, of course, provide uncertified unvalidated support for such portions. We have designed the Specialized Needs Annexes assuming that this recommendation is followed. Thus, our decisions about what to include and what not to include in those annexes are based on the assumption that each annex is certified in an "all-or-nothing" manner.
23.d An implementation may, of course, support extensions that are different from (but possibly related to) those defined by one of the Specialized Needs Annexes. We recommend that, where appropriate, implementations do this by adding library units that are children of existing language-defined library packages.
23.e An implementation should not provide extensions that conflict with those defined in the Specialized Needs Annexes, in the following sense: Suppose an implementation supports a certain error-free program that uses only functionality defined in the core and in the Specialized Needs Annexes. The implementation should ensure that that program will still be error free in some possible full implementation of all of the Specialized Needs Annexes, and that the semantics of the program will not change. For example, an implementation should not provide a package with the same name as one defined in one of the Specialized Needs Annexes, but that behaves differently, even if that implementation does not claim conformance to that Annex.
23.f Note that the Specialized Needs Annexes do not conflict with each other; it is the intent that a single implementation can conform to all of them.
24 Each section is divided into clauses and subclauses that have a common structure. Each section, clause, and subclause first introduces its subject. After the introductory text, text is labeled with the following headings:
Language Design Principles
24.a These are not rules of the language, but guiding principles or goals used in defining the rules of the language. In some cases, the goal is only partially met; such cases are explained.
24.b/2 This is not part of the definition of the language, and does not appear in the Ada 2005 RM.
25 {syntax (under Syntax heading)} {grammar (under Syntax heading)} {context free grammar (under Syntax heading)} {BNF (Backus-Naur Form) (under Syntax heading)} {Backus-Naur Form (BNF) (under Syntax heading)} Syntax rules (indented).
Name Resolution Rules
26 {name resolution rules} {overloading rules} {resolution rules} Compile-time rules that are used in name resolution, including overload resolution.
26.a Discussion: These rules are observed at compile time. (We say "observed" rather than "checked," because these rules are not individually checked. They are really just part of the Legality Rules in Section 8 that require exactly one interpretation of each constituent of a complete context.) The only rules used in overload resolution are the Syntax Rules and the Name Resolution Rules.
26.b When dealing with non-overloadable declarations it sometimes makes no semantic difference whether a given rule is a Name Resolution Rule or a Legality Rule, and it is sometimes difficult to decide which it should be. We generally make a given rule a Name Resolution Rule only if it has to be. For example, "The name, if any, in a raise_statement shall be the name of an exception." is under "Legality Rules."
Legality Rules
27 {legality rules} {compile-time error} {error (compile-time)} Rules that are enforced at compile time. {legal (construct)} {illegal (construct)} A construct is legal if it obeys all of the Legality Rules.
27.a Discussion: These rules are not used in overload resolution.
27.b Note that run-time errors are always attached to exceptions; for example, it is not "illegal" to divide by zero, it just raises an exception.
Static Semantics
28 {static semantics} {compile-time semantics} A definition of the compile-time effect of each construct.
28.a Discussion: The most important compile-time effects represent the effects on the symbol table associated with declarations (implicit or explicit). In addition, we use this heading as a bit of a grab bag for equivalences, package specifications, etc. For example, this is where we put statements like so-and-so is equivalent to such-and-such. (We ought to try to really mean it when we say such things!) Similarly, statements about magically-generated implicit declarations go here. These rules are generally written as statements of fact about the semantics, rather than as a you-shall-do-such-and-such sort of thing.
29 {post-compilation error} {post-compilation rules} {link-time error: See post-compilation error} {error (link-time)} Rules that are enforced before running a partition. {legal (partition)} {illegal (partition)} A partition is legal if its compilation units are legal and it obeys all of the Post-Compilation Rules.
29.a Discussion: It is not specified exactly when these rules are checked, so long as they are checked for any given partition before that partition starts running. An implementation may choose to check some such rules at compile time, and reject compilation_units accordingly. Alternatively, an implementation may check such rules when the partition is created (usually known as "link time"), or when the partition is mapped to a particular piece of hardware (but before the partition starts running).
Dynamic Semantics
30 {dynamic semantics} {run-time semantics} {run-time error} {error (run-time)} A definition of the run-time effect of each construct.
30.a Discussion: This heading describes what happens at run time. Run-time checks, which raise exceptions upon failure, are described here. Each item that involves a run-time check is marked with the name of the check — these are the same check names that are used in a pragma Suppress. Principle: Every check should have a name, usable in a pragma Suppress.
Bounded (Run-Time) Errors
31 {bounded error} Situations that result in bounded (run-time) errors (see 1.1.5).
31.a Discussion: The "bounds" of each such error are described here — that is, we characterize the set of all possible behaviors that can result from a bounded error occurring at run time.
Erroneous Execution
32 {erroneous execution} Situations that result in erroneous execution (see 1.1.5).
33 {implementation requirements} Additional requirements for conforming implementations.
33.a Discussion: ...as opposed to rules imposed on the programmer. An example might be, "The smallest representable duration, Duration'Small, shall not be greater than twenty milliseconds."
33.b It's really just an issue of how the rule is worded. We could write the same rule as "The smallest representable duration is an implementation-defined value less than or equal to 20 milliseconds" and then it would be under "Static Semantics."
34 {documentation requirements} Documentation requirements for conforming implementations.
34.a Discussion: These requirements are beyond those that are implicitly specified by the phrase "implementation defined". The latter require documentation as well, but we don't repeat these cases under this heading. Usually this heading is used for when the description of the documentation requirement is longer and does not correspond directly to one, narrow normative sentence.
35 {metrics} Metrics that are specified for the time/space properties of the execution of certain language constructs.
36 {implementation permissions} Additional permissions given to the implementer.
36.a Discussion: For example, "The implementation is allowed to impose further restrictions on the record aggregates allowed in code statements." When there are restrictions on the permission, those restrictions are given here also. For example, "An implementation is allowed to restrict the kinds of subprograms that are allowed to be main subprograms. However, it shall support at least parameterless procedures." — we don't split this up between here and "Implementation Requirements."
Implementation Advice
37 {implementation advice} {advice} Optional advice given to the implementer. The word "should" is used to indicate that the advice is a recommendation, not a requirement. It is implementation defined whether or not a given recommendation is obeyed.
37.a/2 Implementation defined: Whether or not each recommendation given in Implementation Advice is followed — see M.3, "Implementation Advice" for a listing.
37.b/1 Discussion: The advice generally shows the intended implementation, but the implementer is free to ignore it. The implementer is the sole arbiter of whether or not the advice has been obeyed, if not, whether the reason is a good one, and whether the required documentation is sufficient. It would be wrong for the ACATS to enforce any of this advice.
37.c For example, "Whenever possible, the implementation should choose a value no greater than fifty microseconds for the smallest representable duration, Duration'Small."
37.d We use this heading, for example, when the rule is so low level or implementation-oriented as to be untestable. We also use this heading when we wish to encourage implementations to behave in a certain way in most cases, but we do not wish to burden implementations by requiring the behavior.
38 (1) {notes} Notes emphasize consequences of the rules described in the (sub)clause or elsewhere. This material is informative.
39 Examples illustrate the possible forms of the constructs described. This material is informative.
39.a Discussion: The next three headings list all language changes between Ada 83 and Ada 95. Language changes are any change that changes the set of text strings that are legal Ada programs, or changes the meaning of any legal program. Wording changes, such as changes in terminology, are not language changes. Each language change falls into one of the following three categories:
Inconsistencies With Ada 83
39.b {inconsistencies with Ada 83} This heading lists all of the upward inconsistencies between Ada 83 and Ada 95. Upward inconsistencies are situations in which a legal Ada 83 program is a legal Ada 95 program with different semantics. This type of upward incompatibility is the worst type for users, so we only tolerate it in rare situations.
39.c (Note that the semantics of a program is not the same thing as the behavior of the program. Because of Ada's indeterminacy, the "semantics" of a given feature describes a set of behaviors that can be exhibited by that feature. The set can contain more than one allowed behavior. Thus, when we ask whether the semantics changes, we are asking whether the set of behaviors changes.)
39.d/2 This is not part of the definition of the language, and does not appear in the Ada 95 or Ada 2005 RM.
Incompatibilities With Ada 83
39.e {incompatibilities with Ada 83} This heading lists all of the upward incompatibilities between Ada 83 and Ada 95, except for the ones listed under "Inconsistencies With Ada 83" above. These are the situations in which a legal Ada 83 program is illegal in Ada 95. We do not generally consider a change that turns erroneous execution into an exception, or into an illegality, to be upwardly incompatible.
39.f/2 This is not part of the definition of the language, and does not appear in the Ada 95 or Ada 2005 RM.
39.g {extensions to Ada 83} This heading is used to list all upward compatible language changes; that is, language extensions. These are the situations in which a legal Ada 95 program is not a legal Ada 83 program. The vast majority of language changes fall into this category.
39.h/2 This is not part of the definition of the language, and does not appear in the Ada 95 or Ada 2005 RM.
39.i As explained above, the next heading does not represent any language change:
39.j/2 {wording changes from Ada 83} This heading lists some of the non-semantic changes between the Ada 83 RM and the the Ada 95 RM. It is incomplete; we have not attempted to list all wording changes, but only the "interesting" ones.
39.k/2 This is not part of the definition of the language, and does not appear in the Ada 95 or Ada 2005 RM.
39.l/2 Discussion: The next three headings list all language changes between Ada 95 and Ada 2005 (the language defined by the Ada 95 standard plus Technical Corrigendum 1 plus Amendment 1). Each language change falls into one of the following three categories:
39.m/2 {inconsistencies with Ada 95} This heading lists all of the upward inconsistencies between Ada 95 and Ada 2005. Upward inconsistencies are situations in which a legal Ada 95 program is a legal Ada 2005 program with different semantics.
39.n/2 Inconsistencies marked with Corrigendum:{Corrigendum} are corrections to the original Ada 95 definition introduced by Corrigendum 1. Inconsistencies marked with Amendment Correction:{Amendment Correction} are corrections to the original Ada 95 definition added by Amendment 1. Formally, these are inconsistencies caused by Ada Issues classified as Binding Interpretations; implementations of Ada 95 are supposed to follow these corrections, not the original flawed language definition. Thus, these strictly speaking are not inconsistencies between Ada 95 and Ada 2005. Practically, however, they very well may be, as early Ada 95 implementations may not follow the recommendation. Inconsistencies so marked are not portable between Ada 95 implementations, while usually Ada 2005 will have more clearly defined behavior. Therefore, we document these for completeness.
39.o/2 This is not part of the definition of the language, and does not appear in the Ada 2005 RM.
39.p/2 {incompatibilities with Ada 95} This heading lists all of the upward incompatibilities between Ada 95 and Ada 2005, except for the ones listed under "Inconsistencies With Ada 95" above. These are the situations in which a legal Ada 95 program is illegal in Ada 2005.
39.q/2 As with inconsistencies, incompatibilities marked with Corrigendum: are corrections to the original Ada 95 definition introduced by Corrigendum 1. Incompatibilities marked with Amendment Correction: are corrections to the original Ada 95 definition added by Amendment 1. Formally, these are incompatibilities caused by Ada Issues classified as Binding Interpretations; implementations of Ada 95 are supposed to follow these corrections, not the original flawed language definition. Thus, these strictly speaking are not incompatibilities between Ada 95 and Ada 2005. Practically, however, they very well may be, as early Ada 95 implementations may not follow the recommendation. Therefore, some Ada 95 implementations may be able to compile the examples, while others may not. In constrast, Ada 2005 compilers will have consistent behavior. Therefore, we document these for completeness.
39.r/2 This is not part of the definition of the language, and does not appear in the Ada 2005 RM.
39.s/2 {extensions to Ada 95} This heading is used to list all upward compatible language changes; that is, language extensions. These are the situations in which a legal Ada 2005 program is not a legal Ada 95 program. The vast majority of language changes fall into this category.
39.t/2 As with incompatibilities, extensions marked with Corrigendum: are corrections to the original Ada 95 definition introduced by Corrigendum 1. Extensions marked with Amendment Correction: are corrections to the original Ada 95 definition added by Amendment 1. Formally, these are extensions allowed by Ada Issues classified as Binding Interpretations. As corrections, implementations of Ada 95 are allowed to implement these extensions. Thus, these strictly speaking are not extensions of Ada 95; they're part of Ada 95. Practically, however, they very well may be extensions, as early Ada 95 implementations may not implement the extension. Therefore, some Ada 95 implementations may be able to compile the examples, while others may not. In constrast, Ada 2005 compilers will always support the extensions. Therefore, we document these for completeness.
39.u/2 This is not part of the definition of the language, and does not appear in the Ada 2005 RM.
39.v/2 As explained above, the next heading does not represent any language change:
39.w/2 {wording changes from Ada 95} This heading lists some of the non-semantic changes between the Ada 95 RM and the Ada 2005 RM. This heading lists only "interesting" changes (for instance, editorial corrections are not listed). Changes which come from Technical Corrigendum 1 are marked Corrigendum; unmarked changes come from Amendment 1.
39.x/2 This is not part of the definition of the language, and does not appear in the Ada 2005 RM.

This testing facility has been developed in conjunction with the BSI to determine the performance of roof underlays to resist the design wind loads imposed on roofs. A range of wind load pressures up to 2500 Pa can be applied to underlays laid on rafter centres of up to 600 mm and batten gauges of up to 345 mm. This test procedure is included in the recent revision of BS 5534.


I pass a white house with a black driveway.
or occasionally basketball, short jumpers and lay-ups.
the darkness of the drive as he moves.
until the school bus arrives.
and a firm rush of rain to wash away winter's refuse.
the light of his cap catching my eye as I drove by.
with soft grass, one that does not face a busy road.
on the paths that we face each day.

A beautiful and moving poem about real life.
Just a lovely poem, Kristin. Very moving. Congratulations.
Kristin, Your poem speaks loudly to me today as we all wait for survivors in Washington State and grieve the losses on Flight 370."So together, we are buoyed"
Such a beautiful and inspiring piece--disarming in its simplicity. Thought the form could be a little tighter, but loved the sentiments so artfully expressed.
Don't ever change your route to school, such a pleasure to read this and think about those lucky students learning to be kind.
This brought tears to my eyes. What a lovely start to my day, Kristin. Thank you for "Respite", and thank you for what you do in your classroom.
Kristin, you have a poet's eye and a poet's heart. Thank you for teaching kindness and reading.

Trump, Covid-19, U.K.: Your Monday Briefing
January 11, 2021 Abhiram	0 Comments
Kadia Goba, Axios: Capitol Police came on the speaker to say there had been a breach. You go in this marble building, it seems sacred to the people that work there. You just don't think of intruders gaining access to that portion of the building.
Marcus DiPaola, freelance: This guy grabs me by the shoulder and he's like, "Who do you work for?" I'm like, "I'm a freelance photographer." He's like, "Have you ever worked for CNN?" And then he pulled me out of the way, and he charges in.
Zoeann Murphy, Washington Post: At around 10, I went back to my hotel, walking through these mobs of Trump supporters drunk in the lobby. I get back to my room, and that's when I started to process the enormity of what had happened.
Robert Moore, Britain's ITV: I went to sleep around 3 or 4 a.m. and was up a couple of hours later. What has surprised me is the level of interest in Europe, and in Britain, in particular, with the events here. This is seen as a seminal story, one that shatters the myth about the stability of American democracy.
That's it for this briefing. See you on Tuesday.

Apzumi Spatial is a set of virtual tools that improve efficiency, accuracy and effectiveness of industrial processes.
We use Augmented Reality technology and features of innovative devices like MS Hololens to support production workers, engineers and designers of large-scale industrial companies.
The innovativeness of the solution comes from merging special features: space recognition, displaying holograms and Artificial Intelligence algorithms.
AR solutions improve work accuracy of industrial workers to 96%.
AR solutions shorten the time of industrial processes by 25%.
AR solutions improve workers productivity by 32%.
Training programs that imitate reality and are easily scalable mean enormous savings on education. Blending with reality and gamification mechanisms improve efficiency of the training.
Possibility of generating editable models that reflect the reality lowers the costs and time of prototyping phase. The models can be real-sized and modified by multiple people working remotely at the same time.
Space recognition function of AR devices allows workers to calculate and plan space usage without moving heavy objects. The solution is especially useful in working with big objects transported from big distances.
3D visualizations are attractive and effective way of presenting the products to the client. Especially useful in large B2B deals when visualization of end-product and understanding the customer's vision is crucial.
Apzumi cooperates with different departments of Volkswagen Poznan. Using Augmented Reality technologies we work on improving efficiency of processes inside of VWP in new way not avaliable ever before. The most significant prototypes so far involve solutions for logistics, training and education and planning. The plan of innovation development in the future includes improving the performance of more processes i.e. maintenance of manufacturing machinery.
Merging the experience of Apzumi team (6 years of innovation through AR) and industrial knowledge of VW engineers the solutions we build are first of its kind in the world.
Lukasz and the Apzumi team have been excellent partners to work with. Over the course of several shifting demands and constraints they have helped to develop and refine our solution and have done so with enthusiasm and a high degree of invaluable expertise. In my opinion Lukasz and the team he has constructed at Apzumi present an ideal opportunity for any company looking to take their idea to implementation and beyond.
If you have any questions about us, our methodology or terms of cooperation let us know your email, we will be happy to meet you.

I'm concerned that this might not be possible, but it's worth a try, perhaps.
Could monks who post code be allowed to post them in two methods? The first one would be the normal way with the CODE tags, but perhaps there'd be another way that would allow them to put the code within TEXTAREA tags, so a monk could scroll horizontally/vertically to see the code, instead of allowing the code to screw up the formatting?
Update: For those confused by the replies below, this node used to be in a tiny, tiny textarea (2 rows and 12 columns). The HTML is still there, but apparently the Everything engine now strips it out.
*chuckles* You make a good point, Ovid.
I was thinking more along the lines of a perlmonks-specific tag (such as the brackets used for node-linking) which vroom's code would allow a particular ROWS & COLS, perhaps based on user preferences. Of course this would only be convenient for those of us with accounts.
I have to agree with Ovid on this one. I would have to go more with nuance's post about chopping long lines.

St George's Chapel is the place of worship at Windsor Castle in England, United Kingdom. It is both a royal peculiar and the chapel of the Order of the Garter. Building began within the Castle in 1475 and Henry VII completed the nave and extraordinary stone vaulted ceiling. Finally Henry VIII completed building work by 1528. The architecture is renowned as among the finest examples of Gothic in the UK – the late medieval style of English architecture.
