In March 2011, a study entitled "Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Gang Injunctions in California" was published in the "Journal of Criminal Justice Research". It sought to determine whether gang injunctions reduce crime as compared to baseline and matched control areas. Twenty-five gang injunctions from four California counties were evaluated by extracting crime data from court records and police agencies. The control areas—communities with a similar gang problem but no gang injunctions—were matched for similar gang ethnicity, gang size, proximity, and gang activity. Criminological deterrence, association, environmental, and economic theories served as theoretical foundations

Prince Andrew, fresh from his exploits as a helicopter pilot in the Falklands War, presented her a section of his helicopter ("The Brazen Hussey") on air, and asked her to sign it on behalf of his crew mates. He also asked for her phone number. It was at this time that Cubby Brocolli, the producer of James Bond, and his director Michael Wilson surreptitiously auditioned Selina for the role of Miss Moneypenny. They asked her to visit their

At the consecration service the church was renamed 'The Holy Angels'. The church was declared redundant in 1980 and became a private house. A baptist chapel was built at Corton in 1828, and enlarged in 1854 and 1914. It closed in 1965 and is now a private house. A country house was built next to the church in 1618 for Thomas Lambert, a landowner who later served briefly in parliament. Pevsner describes it as


title: "Color correction" content: is half the strength of a (full) CTO gel. Color filters may be applied over a camera lens to adjust its white balance. In video systems, white balance can be achieved by digital or electronic manipulation of the signal and hence color correction filters are not entirely necessary. However, some digital cinema cameras can record an image without any digital filtering applied. Using physical color correction filters to white balance (instead of digital or electronic manipulation) can maximize the dynamic range of the captured image . Some professional cameras designed for ENG use filter wheels containing color correction filters and


title: "Color correction" content: are designed to optimize performance for different color temperatures. In film cameras, no electronic or digital manipulation of white balance is possible in the original camera negative. Color correction filters are an effective method of adjusting white balance. Without filtering, one must attempt to fix white balance through color timing or by manipulating the film after it has been scanned or telecined. Color correction Color correction is a process used in stage lighting, photography, television, cinematography, and other disciplines, which uses color gels, or filters, to alter the overall color of the light. Typically the light color is measured on


title: "Cross-sectional data" content: what percentage of that sample is categorized as obese. This cross-sectional sample provides us with a snapshot of that population, at that one point in time. Note that we do not know based on one cross-sectional sample if obesity is increasing or decreasing; we can only describe the current proportion. Cross-sectional data differs from time series data, in which the same small-scale or aggregate entity is observed at various points in time. Another type of data, panel data (or longitudinal data), combines both cross-sectional and time series data ideas and looks at how the subjects (firms, individuals, etc.) change over


title: "Cross-sectional data" content: population. It then assigns a random date to each individual. This is the random date that the individual will be interviewed, and thus included in the survey. Cross-sectional data can be used in cross-sectional regression, which is regression analysis of cross-sectional data. For example, the consumption expenditures of various individuals in a fixed month could be regressed on their incomes, accumulated wealth levels, and their various demographic features to find out how differences in those features lead to differences in consumers’ behavior.

title: "Gun-Free School Zones Act of 1990" content: minor changes of the revised law were specifically challenged. In "Dorsey", the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruled that the minor changes were indeed sufficient to correct the issues that had caused the original 1990 law to be struck down in "Lopez", and they upheld Dorsey's conviction under the revised version of the law. A 2000 ruling made by the Eleventh Circuit in "United States v. Tait" overturned a conviction for firearm possession in a school zone because the defendant was licensed to do so by the state in which the school zone is located. Convictions upheld

The large number of K-12 schools in developed areas makes it difficult for an individual to travel any distance without entering a Gun Free School Zone. Although the federal GFSZA does provide an exception for an individual licensed to carry a firearm, this exception only applies in the state that physically issued the permit.

Advanced training is optional but there is often an added incentive to riders in the form of reduced insurance premiums. Many motorcycle training courses in the USA use the Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) course materials. , 31 states use the MSF tests for licensing, and 41 states use the MSF motorcycle operator manual. Completion of such courses often results in lower insurance rates, and all but five US states waive motorcyclist license testing for

The MAIDS study did find that drivers of other vehicles were less likely to fail to perceive motorcycles in accidents if they themselves had a motorcycle license, and that motorcyclists riding illegally without a license were more likely to have accidents. The MAIDS report does not conclude that training is unnecessary, but rather states that their results are inconclusive. Hurt's complaint was that in the absence of mandatory training, false information is

title: "Cruiser bicycle" content: Continental Europe became popular, especially lighter and more nimble sports roadster models or "English racer". These models featured three-speed gearing, taller wheels, narrower tires and lighter weight (35–40 pounds) and greater hill-climbing ability. By the late 1950s, U.S. manufacturers such as Schwinn began producing their own version of the "English racer". The cruiser also ceded market share to muscle and lowrider bikes featuring banana seats, oversized shift levers, and ape-hanger bars inspired by West coast motorcycle customizers—which in turn gave birth to the modern BMX bike, while the cruiser went into a steep sales decline. By 1972, a new wave

The glue is applied hot, typically with a brush or spatula. Glue is kept hot in a glue pot, which may be an electric unit built for the purpose, a double boiler, or simply a saucepan or crock pot to provide a warm water bath for the container of glue. Most animal glues are soluble in water, useful for joints which may at some time need to be separated. Alcohol is sometimes applied to such joints to

Specific types include "hide glue", "bone glue", "fish glue", "rabbit skin glue". Hide glue is used in woodworking. It may be supplied as granules, flakes, or flat sheets, which have an indefinite shelf life if kept dry. It is dissolved in water, heated and applied warm, typically around 60°C (140°F). Warmer temperatures quickly destroy the strength of hide glue. Commercial glue pots, simple water baths or double boilers may be used to keep the glue hot while


title: "Animal glue" content: ensure no cured PVA glue was remaining before regluing the top. Hide glue also functions as its own clamp. Once the glue begins to gel, it pulls the joint together. Violin makers may glue the center seams of top and back plates together using a "rubbed joint" rather than using clamps. This technique involves coating half of the joint with hot hide glue, and then rubbing the other half against the joint until the hide glue starts to gel, at which point the glue becomes tacky. At this point the plate is set aside without clamps, and the hide glue

A similar process can be used to glue veneers to a substrate. The veneer and/or the substrate is coated with hot hide glue. Once the glue is cold, the veneer is positioned on the substrate. A hot object such as a clothes iron is applied to the veneer, liquefying the underlying glue. When the iron is removed, the glue cools, bonding the veneer to the substrate. Hide glue joints do not creep under loads.

The show was mainly popular among older kids and young adults who didn't buy toys, and sales suffered as a result.
