Anaku (アナク) is a kata derived from Ananku (See Karate kata). It is translated as Expression Pivoting Form or Pivoting Swallow Form. This kata is typically taught to Go Kyu (Green Belt Kata). |
27324811_0_1 | 27324811 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaku | Anaku | Anaku.
Anaku is used to teach two principles: shifting from Kiba Dachi to Zenkutsu Dachi to Kiba Dachi, and T'ung Gee Hsing's principle of pounding, which is hitting the same spot multiple times. |
27324811_0_2 | 27324811 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaku | Anaku | Anaku.
Chotoku Kyan is credited with recomposing this kata for Karate in 1895. |
27324811_0_3 | 27324811 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaku | Anaku | Anaku. Bunkai
Hsing-Yi's principle is used four times in the kata. The first time it is two tate zukis (vertical punch). The second time it is used with two tate zuki's, a mae geri, and another tate zuki. The name comes from Xingyiquan five element principles, and T'ung Gee Hsing, a known practitioner of Xingyiquan who taught Robert Trias some Xing Yi Quan
There is a third principle that is no longer really taught, though it is used in universal bunkai. The principle is called a Mae Choi Yaku, which is used instead of stepping back, the uke jumps in place while punching with a vertical punch.
At the end of the kata, one can do a hidden spiritual movement called Shin Shin Taisha. A Shin Shin Taisha or 'dead breath' is done by exhaling for fifteen seconds straight. At the end of the Shin Shin Taisha the body should vibrate from stored tension. This technique used since the body is hard during the 7–13 second range and can take much damage (such as getting hit with Bo's). |

Alexandre Denguet Atticky (1937? – 30 January 2013) was a Congolese politician. Under the single-party rule of the Congolese Labour Party (PCT), he served in the government of Congo-Brazzaville as Minister of Labour from 1971 to 1975 and was Ambassador to France in the late 1970s. From 2002 to 2012, Denguet Atiki was a Deputy in the National Assembly, and he was also President of the Parliamentary Group of the Presidential Majority from 2007 to 2012. |
27324845_0_1 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki. Political career
Denguet Atticky was born at Owando in Cuvette Department. After studying in Brazzaville, he began working at the National Social Security Fund; subsequently he worked with trade unions. In the late 1960s, he was a member of the Executive Bureau of the Congolese Trade Union Confederation (Confédération Syndicale Congolaise, CSC) and was the CSC's Federal Secretary for Education; in that capacity, he was the workers' delegate representing Congo-Brazzaville at the International Labour Conference. He was also a member of the Economic and Social Council of Congo-Brazzaville. Denguet Atiki was Political Counsellor at the Congolese Embassy to France in the early 1970s, and subsequently he was appointed to the Congolese government as Minister of Labour on 16 December 1971. |
27324845_0_2 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki.
Denguet Atticky's ministerial responsibilities were expanded when he was appointed as Minister of Labour and Justice in place of Moudileno-Massengo 11 August 1972, and he was also elected to the PCT Central Committee in 1972. Denguet was retained in his post as Minister of Labour and Justice on 30 August 1973. |
27324845_0_3 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki.
At a CSC congress in May 1974, Denguet Atticky warned managers that they were required to cooperate with labour unions and that they faced dismissal if they did not. However, he tempered his admonishment to management by warning that "anarchic unionists who try to systematically undermine the authority of directors" would be seriously punished. |
27324845_0_4 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki.
Later, on 9 January 1975, Denguet Atticky's portfolios were again modified when he was appointed as Minister of Labour and Social Insurance, in charge of Industry. He was replaced by Pierre Ngaka in December 1975 and subsequently was Director-General of the National Office of Commerce. |
27324845_0_5 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki.
Denguet Atticky's political fortunes declined following the assassination of President Marien Ngouabi in March 1977. Ngouabi's successor, Joachim Yhombi-Opango, appointed Denguet Atiki as Ambassador to France later in 1977, and Denguet Atiki presented his credentials to French President Valéry Giscard d'Estaing on 20 October 1977. While posted in Paris, he was additionally accredited as Ambassador to the United Kingdom and Permanent Delegate to UNESCO. He was dropped from the PCT Central Committee in 1979. |
27324845_0_6 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki.
Denguet Atticky was Director-General and Chairman of the Board of the Congolese Timber Office in the late 1980s. At the PCT's Fourth Ordinary Congress, held on 26–31 July 1989, Denguet Atiki regained a seat on the PCT Central Committee. He was also named as the PCT's Political Commissioner for Kouilou Region at that time. |

Activities during the 2002–2007 parliamentary term
At the time of the March 2002 presidential election, Denguet Atticky supported President Denis Sassou Nguesso and worked as his local campaign director for the Poto-Poto district of Brazzaville. He then stood as the PCT candidate for the third constituency of Poto-Poto in the May 2002 parliamentary election, and he won the seat in the second round of voting, held in June 2002. |
27324845_0_8 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki.
In the National Assembly, Denguet Atticky was designated as First Vice-President of the Health, Social Affairs, and Environment Commission on 24 August 2002. He met with his constituents in Poto-Poto in March 2003 to discuss the work of the National Assembly's first session and the establishment of a parliamentary peace committee that was intended to facilitate peace in the Pool Region. Within the ruling party, Denguet Atiki served as President of the PCT's Section 3, based in Poto-Poto. |
27324845_0_9 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki.
Meeting with constituents on 11 February 2004, Denguet Atticky discussed the work of the National Assembly's seventh and eighth special sessions; in particular, he explained how government funding was being allotted in Brazzaville and he described two new laws intended to maintain and improve the condition of the country's roads. On 21 September 2004, he condemned vandalism in Poto-Poto, urging the people to be vigilant and vowing that the vandals would be punished. He also used the occasion to discuss draft laws with his constituents and stressed the government's commitment to maintaining peace. |
27324845_0_10 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki.
Denguet Atticky discussed the work of the National Assembly's seventh ordinary session at a meeting with constituents on 24 February 2005. He also listened to the people's complaints and assured them that the government was working to address their problems. According to Denguet Atiki, the government was trying to improve educational infrastructure and would be assisted in doing so by a grant of 10 million CFA francs from the International Development Association; he said that some of the money would go towards improving schools in Poto-Poto. Regarding youth unemployment, Denguet Atiki noted the severity of the problem; he said that the government was trying to address it but that more needed to be done. |
27324845_0_11 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki.
On 31 May 2005, Denguet Atticky met with his constituents in Poto-Poto to discuss the work of the National Assembly's eighth ordinary session; he particularly noted legislation that he believed would promote economic growth. His constituents raised concerns regarding roads, sanitation, youth unemployment, and payment of pensions. Denguet Atiki said that the government intended to address those issues and he vowed to faithfully speak on behalf of his constituents in the National Assembly. |
27324845_0_12 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki.
Prior to the PCT's Fifth Extraordinary Congress, Denguet Atticky and several others were specially added to the Directory of the Preparatory Committee for the Congress on 31 October 2006. The congress was held on 22–29 December 2006. Denguet Atiki also served as the Acting President of the Parliamentary Group of the Presidential Majority in the period leading up to the 2007 parliamentary election. Justin Lekoundzou, the President of the Parliamentary Group, was ill and undergoing medical treatment abroad. |
27324845_0_13 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki.
Lekoundzou and Jean-Pierre Thystère Tchicaya, the President of the National Assembly, released a letter on 24 March 2007 calling on President Sassou Nguesso to set up a truly independent electoral commission. Coming from two leading members of the Presidential Majority, the letter was a significant gesture of dissent, as it called into question the government's existing efforts to establish an independent electoral commission. In response to the letter, the deputies of the Presidential Majority, led by Denguet Atiki, held a meeting in Mpila on 11 April 2007 to clarify that they did not endorse the letter. They criticized Lekoundzou and Thystère Tchicaya for acting outside of the parliamentary process and for making a statement that could be perceived as reflecting the broader wishes of the deputies of the Presidential Majority, given their leadership roles. |
27324845_0_14 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki. 2007 election and subsequent events
Denguet Atticky stood for re-election as the PCT candidate for the third constituency of Poto-Poto in the June 2007 parliamentary election. He received the notably weak score of 17.49% in the first round of voting, placing second behind Alban Olingou Oniangui, an independent candidate who received 32.85%; the two candidates then proceeded to a second round of voting. At a rally in Brazzaville on 17 July 2007, Denguet Atiki and other PCT candidates called on party members to vote for the party's candidates in the second round; the contest was largely being fought between the PCT and its own allies, and the PCT was struggling to win more seats than it had won in the 2002 election. Denguet Atiki said on the occasion that some party members were being manipulated into opposing the PCT. |
27324845_0_15 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki.
Despite his relatively poor showing in the first round, Denguet Atticky defeated Oniangui in the second round, held in August 2007; he received 57.36% of the vote. When the National Assembly began meeting for the new parliamentary term in September 2007, Denguet Atiki was chosen as President of the Parliamentary Group of the Presidential Majority. |
27324845_0_16 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki.
On 29–31 May 2008, Denguet Atiki led a delegation of deputies on a visit to the Pool Region to review the construction of the Brazzaville–Gangalingolo–Kinkala–Gambari road and the status of the non-operational Djoué hydroelectric dam, as well as the progress of work on the Imboulou hydroelectric dam. He expressed approval for the progress of the road construction, while also listening to various complaints from local people—some of whom wanted the delivery of compensation for the loss of their homes due to the construction—and saying that he would inform the government about their problems. He praised the work on the Imboulou dam and said that President Sassou Nguesso was a "visionary"; according to Denguet Atiki, the progress of the dam disproved the skepticism of those who had dismissed the projects of Sassou Nguesso's development program as "dreams". He declared that the production of electricity through the dam would mark a turning point in Congo-Brazzaville's economic development. |
27324845_0_17 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki.
After Sassou Nguesso announced that he would stand for re-election in the July 2009 presidential election, Denguet Atiki issued a statement in his capacity as President of the Presidential Majority Parliamentary Group in which he called on Sassou Nguesso's supporters to campaign vigorously, "highlighting the
outstanding merits of our great leader", his domestic achievements, and his experience in foreign affairs. He was the deputy campaign director for the Rally of the Presidential Majority (RMP) coalition in Poto-Poto, working under the local campaign director Charlotte Opimbat. At a rally held together with Opimbat on 7 July 2009, Denguet Atiki stressed the importance of preserving peace and portrayed Sassou Nguesso as the candidate of peace, while suggesting that the opposition candidates were possible threats to national stability: "If a presidential candidate wants to fight, tell him to find a suitable place and start a war with members of his family. As for us, we do not want tribal war in our country." |

As part of his constituency activities, Denguet Atiki has donated school supplies to primary schools and medicine to medical centers in Poto-Poto. He donated toys to children at five Poto-Poto preschools on 19 November 2009, while crediting the preschool teachers with playing an important part in the implementation of Sassou Nguesso's program with regard to education. |
27324845_0_19 | 27324845 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre%20Denguet%20Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki | Alexandre Denguet Atiki.
On 15 April 2011, Denguet Atiki chaired a meeting of PCT deputies that endorsed the party leadership's decision to hold the PCT's Sixth Extraordinary Congress later in the year. He called for a revitalization of the PCT to "contribute to the modernization of Congo" and stressed the importance of social justice, urging party members to ensure that the PCT remained true to its original left-wing ideals, particularly in the context of popular demands for greater democracy in different parts of the world. At the Sixth Extraordinary Congress in July 2011, Denguet Atiki was elected to the PCT's 51-member Political Bureau. |

In the July–August 2012 parliamentary election, Jean-Claude Ollingo Oniangué, rather than Denguet Atticky, stood as the PCT's candidate in the third constituency of Poto-Poto, winning the seat in the first round of voting. |

Denguet Atticky died in Brazzaville on 30 January 2013. He was 76 years old. He was interred at the Marien Ngouabi Mausoleum in Brazzaville. |

General Ibrahim Babangida appointed Colonel Abdul One Mohammed military governor of Borno State from December 1987 to December 1989.
In 1997 Abdul One Mohammed was posted to the Economic Community of West African States Monitoring Group (ECOMOG) as Deputy ECOMOG commander and Chief of Staff, heading operation in Liberia and Sierra Leone. |

In November 1997 Abdul Mohammed denied ECOMOG's fighter jets had violated a ceasefire agreement in an incident where fighters had intervened against ships trying the break the UN embargo against the junta in Sierra Leone. He said "Our aircraft were shot at so we returned fire".
On 9 February 1998 the ECOMOG troops launched an all-out offensive to regain control of Freetown, capital of Sierra Leone. Abdul One Mohammed said his troops were near the Freetown city centre and would continue their advance. |

On 24 February 1998 Abdul One Mohammed said that commercial and humanitarian cargoes could now enter the harbour of Freetown and that the airport was also open. The embargo on arms remained in force.
He said he planned to soon deploy troops to gain better control of the hinterland and expected all roads in the Bo area to be reopened soon.
On 25 February 1998 One Mohammed said his troops had moved in from Kenema and had taken over Bo from RUF rebels after heavy fighting. ECOMOG units held key positions in the city, backed up by Kamajor militiamen. |

Liberians held a parade for ECOMOG peacekeepers in January 1998, who were due to leave the country on 2 February. Abdul One Mohammed called on Liberians to "put hands together and consolidate the peace we have put together".
Earlier that month, he had expressed concern that trends could lead to renewal of conflict in Liberia, including the "re-enlistment of soldiers who have been identified with the seven-year fratricidal war. |
27324891_2_1 | 27324891 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdul%20One%20Mohammed | Abdul One Mohammed | Abdul One Mohammed. Liberia
In July 1998 Abdul One Mohammed said he regretted that Liberia's security forces were not retrained at the end of the civil war. He also said that ECOMOG had failed to establish a gun-free society in Liberia because "former warlords" had told their fighters to keep their weapons.
In August 1998 he denied an accusation by Liberian President Charles Taylor that ECOMOG was planning to send more troops to destabilize the Liberian government. He said this was ridiculous since ECOMOG had been trying to restore peace since 1990, and Nigeria alone had spent millions of dollars for that purpose. |

Abdul One Mohammed was replaced as ECOMOG Chief of Staff in July 1998 by Brigadier-General G. Kwabe.
During hearings of the Special Tribunal on Sierre Leone in 2004, a witness said that Hinga Norman, a former Sierra Leone People's Party (SLPP) Interior minister and Civil Defence Forces leader had said he received arms and ammunition from Abdul One Mohammed.
In 2006 Abdul One Mohammed was unable to appear at the trial of Hinga Norman since he had been receiving medical attention in Germany and was too ill to travel to Freetown. |

Pacific Presentations was a Los Angeles based concert company started in 1970 by Sepp Donahower, Gary Perkins, and Robert Bogdanovich. It grew out of the ashes of LA's early progressive concert company, Pinnacle Dance Concerts, which was founded in 1967 by Sepp Donahower, Marc Chase and John Van Hamersveld. Pinnacle promoted the early shows of the Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Traffic, Cream, The Jeff Beck Group with Rod Stewart and Pink Floyd. The Single Wing Turquoise Bird Light Show did many of the multimedia light shows at the Pinnacle Concerts. |

Pacific grew into one of the largest concert companies in the United States, promoting thousands of concerts all over the US and Canada. The company established and popularized venues such as the Hollywood Palladium, and the Santa Barbara County Bowl. Pacific put together California Jam in 1974, which set the record for paid attendance. The company also promoted entire tours of Rod Stewart & The Faces all through the 1970s, helping make the artist one of the biggest attractions in the world. In the late 1970s, Gary Perkins, Brian Murphy, and Bob Bogdanovich split from Pacific and formed Avalon Attractions. Danny Kresky was also with Pacific. After around four years, Danny left to start his own company, DKE in Pittsburgh. Donahower stayed with Pacific and promoted tours with Bob Marley & The Wailers and other attractions. Sepp Donahower is currently the sole owner of Pacific Presentations. After Perkins left Avalon a few years later, Irving Azoff and Bob Getties bought into Avalon and it was sold to SFX a few years later. SFX was then sold to Clear Channel, and Clear Channel spun off their concert company into Live Nation, which now has merged with Ticketmaster. The late Brian Murphy was heading up AEG West until his recent passing. Irving Azoff is now partnered up with Madison Square Garden and has also formed a new entity with former AEG head Tim Leiweke, Oak View Group. Gary Perkins was tragically killed in an automobile accident in December 2014. Sepp Donahower is a music business and media consultant in California and New York, and currently works with Downsound USA producing concerts and festivals, and venue development. |

Zair Isaakovich Azgur (January 15, 1908 – February 18, 1995) was a Soviet and Belarusian sculptor active during the Soviet period. Born in Mogilev Governorate (now in Vitebsk Region, Belarus), he studied in that city from 1922 to 1925; from 1925 until 1928 he studied at the Vkhutein in Leningrad. He first exhibited in 1923. He was mainly active in Minsk, where among his projects was the creation of reliefs for the opera house. He created a series of portrait busts of war heroes and military figures during the 1940s. At the 1958 World's Fair in Brussels he won a silver medal for his statue of Rabindranath Tagore. Monuments to his design were erected at Luhansk in 1947; Minsk in 1947; Borodino in 1949; Suzdal in 1950; and Leninogorsk - a monument to Vladimir Lenin - in 1957. Later in his career he exhibited in Bucharest and Paris. |

27325000_0_0 | 27325000 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project%20GABRIEL | Project GABRIEL | Project GABRIEL.
Project GABRIEL was an investigation to gauge the impact of nuclear fallout resulting from nuclear warfare. The United States Atomic Energy Commission surmised that the radioactive isotope strontium-90 (Sr-90) presented the greatest hazard to life globally, which resulted in the commissioning of Project SUNSHINE: which sought to examine the levels of Sr-90 in human tissues and bones (with a special interest in infants) gathered from around the world. |
27325000_0_1 | 27325000 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project%20GABRIEL | Project GABRIEL | Project GABRIEL. Background
During the Cold War era, there was an escalation of the atmosphere testing of nuclear weapons. After the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, testing continued and the scale increased with the first hydrogen bomb in 1952. Soon after the United States tested the hydrogen bomb, the Soviet Union followed, in 1953. The mushroom clouds that occurred from the explosions released radioactive isotopes in mass quantities.
The first comprehensive study of the problem of radioactive isotope release began in spring 1949 with a one-man project called GABRIEL, conducted by Nicholas M. Smith Jr. at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Smith produced his first report in 1949. |
27325000_0_2 | 27325000 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project%20GABRIEL | Project GABRIEL | Project GABRIEL.
Project GABRIEL was revived in mid-1951 because bombs that were dropped had brought up concerns people had about the dangers of strontium-90. United States Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) was interested by GABRIEL's report though they said it was lacking in hard data and needed independent confirmation of the tests. |
27325000_0_3 | 27325000 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project%20GABRIEL | Project GABRIEL | Project GABRIEL.
After reviewing Project GABRIEL in 1953, it was given first priority status. The secret project would define "practical limits" for using atomic weapons. A task team was assembled and the codename used was "Project HORN." In 1954, AEC argued that fallout was harmless because there was not enough evidence to prove that fallout would harm humans, animals, or crops. The AEC campaign persuaded the public that the worldwide fallout was harmless. This claim was later disputed when scientists announced publicly that there was no safe level of radiation. This was confirmed in a confidential report by a geneticist for the AEC. By 1954 and the Castle Bravo incident, it was obvious that radioactive fallout was dangerous to humans. The United States Atomic Energy Commission Division of Biology and Medicine dealt with efforts directed towards experimental and field studies and the correlation of data dealing with Project GABRIEL.
The RAND Corporation, Laboratories at Columbia University, AEC's New York office, the University of Chicago, an exclusive group of scientists, UCLA, and the United States Air Force were all involved in collection and testing of samples from around the world for radioactive fallout. |
27325000_0_4 | 27325000 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project%20GABRIEL | Project GABRIEL | Project GABRIEL. Testing strontium-90
After the hazards of strontium-90 became evident, the next step was to focus on impact and damage per detonation. Smith's tests focused primarily on how many atomic weapons could potentially be detonated before radioactive contamination of air, water and soil became a long-term effect on crops, animals and humans worldwide. In 1949, Smith estimated that it would take 3,000 Hiroshima-sized detonations in a single growing season to see if it have an effect on people who ate crops in affected areas. In 1951, Smith repeated this study with new information from the previous two detonations. With the new information, he then calculated that 10,000 Hiroshima-sized detonations would be needed before the long-term hazards became serious.
The testing was done with bones, urine and tissue samples collected worldwide. These samples were all tested for nuclear fallout, yet were falsely studied under the guise of nutritional importance and naturally occurring radon. It was determined that Sr-90 is a "bone-seeker," depositing in bones and marrow after ingestion. Civilian prisoners were considered for certain radiation testing, mainly Utah State prison inmates. One document revealed tests done on the bones of a stillborn baby showed that strontium-90 levels were 36% higher than the average 55% of other stillborn. |
27325000_1_0 | 27325000 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project%20GABRIEL | Project GABRIEL | Project GABRIEL. Studies related to Project GABRIEL
Project GABRIEL opened a wide range of questions about formation, transformation, fallout and biological hazards due to bomb debris. GABRIEL supported work in research projects that might apply to the side effects of nuclear war. It was the sole support of the major research effort of Project SUNSHINE, which tested biological damage from radioactive fallout of Sr-90. By 1954 Project GABRIEL included about 70 investigations supported by the Division of Biology and Medicine. At a summer conference that was hosted by the RAND Corporation the estimate of detonations was revised and increased to 25,000 megatons worth of damage. Project Sunshine was led by radiation physicist Willard Libby on July 21, 1953. Libby realized GABRIEL lacked data in other aspects of fallout, examined carbon-14 and developed radiocarbon dating. The Project GABRIEL report by the AEC was issued in 1954, while the RAND Corporation issued their report on Project SUNSHINE in 1953. Both Project GABRIEL and SUNSHINE played a direct role in the reorganization of the AEC's Division of Biology and Medicine in 1957. |
