A scope clause is part of a contract between a major airline and the trade union of its pilots that limit the number and size of aircraft that may be flown by the airline's regional airline affiliate. The goal is to protect the union pilots' jobs at the major airline from being outsourced by limiting the regional airlines' passenger capacity. These clauses exist primarily in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. |

Scope clauses are supported as a means of saving union jobs. Major airline pilots are usually higher paid than regional pilots. There is a perceived safety advantage in favor of major airlines. Criticism of scope clauses centers on the limits they place on the regional airlines they target. They are seen as a way of artificially maintaining the pay of major airline pilots when regional pilots will in theory fly the same-sized airplanes for less pay. |

Since 2012, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines and United Airlines cap their regional airlines' jets at 76 seats and a maximum take-off weight (MTOW) at 86,000 lb (39 t).
This limit stands until 2019 at United, and 2020 at Delta and American, limiting the sales of the new Mitsubishi SpaceJet M90 and Embraer 175-E2 to the smaller M100 and current E175. |

In February 2019, Bombardier launched the CRJ550, a 50-seat variant of its CRJ700. The reduced seating capacity and maximum takeoff weight were specifically designed to comply with scope clauses. United had been pushing to renegotiate the clauses, whereas pilots were arguing against what they see as a "flawed strategy of outsourcing". The decision to reconfigure larger existing models implies that the scope clauses remain frozen. |
27338601_0_4 | 27338601 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scope%20clause | Scope clause | Scope clause. Impact on airlines
Scope clauses place restrictions on how many and what size of aircraft a regional airline may operate. Some holding companies operate a large number of individual airlines, with each airline's fleet specifically tuned to the scope clause of that airline's contracted major carrier. |

Since 2013, Embraer booked nearly 400 E175 orders in U.S., besting the CRJ900 by over 4 to 1.
Delta Air Lines was reported in December 2017 it had maxed out on its 153 allowable 76-seat aircraft, and was forced to fly its 102 70-seaters.
The E170 has six less business seats but the E175 has 70 seats, keeping the same premium seats with more range than the E170 or the CRJ700.
SkyWest ordered 30 E175SCs for Delta to enter service in 2018.
The E175SC is sold at E170 pricing, a 76-seat retrofit have to go through Embraer. |
27338601_0_6 | 27338601 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scope%20clause | Scope clause | Scope clause. Impact on aircraft manufacturers
Scope clauses have a major influence on manufacturers of regional aircraft. Manufacturers will create airplanes specifically tuned to the scope clauses of most airlines. For this reason and others, regional aircraft tend to be manufactured in families, and competing regional aircraft will often have identical seating capacity. |
27338601_0_7 | 27338601 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scope%20clause | Scope clause | Scope clause. Renegotiation
United Airlines has been renegotiating its agreement with the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA) after it became amendable on January 31, 2019. , "noneconomic" matters relating to pilot scheduling had been agreed and ALPA expected to start discussion of scope aspects. United is seeking to fly more aircraft in the 76-seat category, given that no manufacturers currently produce 50-seaters. ALPA wishes to tie scope discussions to United's overall fleet, including wide-body aircraft, whereas the current contract links regional restrictions only to the narrow-body fleet size. |

It was proposed in 2010 as a global industry standard by an association of the same name formed by five major Japanese automakers and included in the IEC61851-23, -24 (charging system and communication) and the IEC 62196 standard as configuration AA. Competing standards include the Combined Charging System (CCS)—used by most German and US automakers—and the Tesla Supercharger, although Tesla provided an adapter to allow charging using a CHAdeMO charger. |
27338603_0_2 | 27338603 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO.
CHAdeMO is an abbreviation of "CHArge de MOve", equivalent to "move using charge" or "move by charge" or "charge 'n' go", a reference to the fact that it's a fast charger. The name is derived from the Japanese phrase (), translating to English as "How about a cup of tea?", referring to the time it would take to charge a car. CHAdeMO can charge low-range () electric cars in less than half an hour. , CHAdeMO allows up to 400 kW of charging (400 A × 1 kV) and aims for 900 kW as it is currently co-developing with China Electricity Council (CEC) the next-generation ultra-high-power charging standard with the working name of “ChaoJi.” |
27338603_0_3 | 27338603 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO. History
The CHAdeMO Association was formed by the Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), Nissan, Mitsubishi and Fuji Heavy Industries (now Subaru Corporation). Toyota later joined as its fifth executive member, followed by Hitachi, Honda and Panasonic. CHAdeMO Research and Development started in 2005 with the goal of developing a public infrastructure of fast chargers that enables people to drive EVs without worrying about the range of their battery. The first commercial CHAdeMO charging infrastructure was commissioned in 2009 alongside the launch of the Mitsubishi i-MiEV and CHAdeMO was published as IEC standards in 2014 (IEC 61851-23 for charging system, 61851-24 for communication, and IEC 62196-3 configuration AA for connector). In the same year, CHAdeMO was published as EN standard, followed by the publication as IEEE Standard 2030.1.1TM-2015 in 2016. |

In Europe, the European Commission has submitted in 2013 a proposal for the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Directive designating the Combo2 (IEC61296-3, configuration FF) as the European mandated plug for DC high-power charging. While the European Parliament adopted a draft report supporting CHAdeMO to be "transitioned out by January 2019," at the final stage of law-making this was rejected and the final version (EU Directive 2014/94/EU) simply mandates all publicly accessible chargers in the EU to be equipped "at least" with Combo2 connectors, endorsing explicitly multistandard charging in Recital 33. Therefore, the EU does not prohibit or ban CHAdeMO and charging stations with several charging interfaces are permitted. |
27338603_0_5 | 27338603 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO.
By December 2015, the CHAdeMO network had reached 10,000 charge points worldwide in 50 countries: 5,974 in Asia, 2,755 in Europe, and just 1,400 in North America. |
27338603_0_6 | 27338603 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO.
By July 2017, the CHAdeMO Association web site stated that the number had grown to over 16,000 CHAdeMO chargers installed globally, still mostly located in Japan (≈7,100+). Europe had over 4,600, North America had more than 2,200 and 2,000 were located elsewhere. |
27338603_0_7 | 27338603 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO.
In 2018 the total number of the charge points in Europe surpassed that of Japan. As of April 2019, there were roughly 25,300 CHAdeMO charge points globally, with the biggest share, 9,200, in Europe, 7,600 in Japan, 3,200 in North America and more than 5,300 elsewhere. |

In July 2020, Nissan unveiled the new 2021 Nissan Ariya to the EU/US markets, which would have only a CCS charge port. Some media outlets reported that this would be the end of CHAdeMO in the US and Europe. In the same year, several new CHAdeMO vehicles, such as Xpeng G3, Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross, and Lexus UX300e were launched in the EU markets later that year. In October 2020, CHAdeMO has achieved the one million mark of vehicles equipped with a CHAdeMO charge port in the world. According to the Association, ‘supported by some 20 automakers who have produced various CHAdeMO vehicles, the one millionth CHAdeMO EV was sold sometime in the world in the month of October 2020, making CHAdeMO vehicles the 2nd DC fast charging inlet after the Chinese GB/T to achieve this number.' |

As of January 2022, CHAdeMO Association reports that 44900 CHAdeMO charge points are found in 96 countries, not including the over 10,000 V2X systems deployed globally. |
27338603_1_0 | 27338603 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO. DC fast charge
Most electric vehicles (EVs) have an on-board charger that uses a rectifier circuit to transform alternating current from the electrical grid (which supplies mains AC) to direct current (DC) suitable for recharging the EV's battery pack. Most EVs are designed with limited AC input power, typically based on the available power of consumer outlets: for example, 240 V, 30 A in the United States and Japan; 240 V, 40 A in Canada; and 230 V, 15 A or 3Φ, 400 V, 32 A in Europe and Australia. AC chargers with higher limits have been specified, for example SAEJ1772-2009 has an option for 240 V, 80 A and VDE-AR-E 2623-2-2 has a 3Φ, 400 V, 63 A. But these charger types have been rarely deployed in the US and only EVs made by Tesla have a matching rectifier. |
27338603_1_1 | 27338603 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO. Connector design
Cost and thermal issues limit how much power the rectifier can handle, so beyond approximately 240 V AC and 75 A it is better for an external charging station to deliver DC directly to the battery. For faster charging, dedicated DC chargers can be built in permanent locations and provided with high-current connections to the grid. Such high voltage and high-current charging is called a DC fast charge (DCFC) or DC quick charging (DCQC). |
27338603_1_2 | 27338603 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO. Connector design
CHAdeMO was the world’s first to propose a standardised DC fast charge solution as public infrastructure on the road-side to be shared across diverse EVs, regardless of their brands and models. |
27338603_1_3 | 27338603 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO. Connector protocols and history
CHAdeMO originated out of Tokyo Electric Power Co.'s charging system design. TEPCO had trialled numerous EV infrastructure projects between 2006 and 2009 in collaboration with Nissan, Mitsubishi and Subaru (amongst others). These trials resulted in developing patented technology and a specification for high-voltage DC (up to 500 V) high-current (125 A) automotive fast charging via a Japan Automobile Research Institute (JARI) DC fast-charge connector, which is the basis for the CHAdeMO protocol. The connector was specified by the 1993 Japan Electric Vehicle Standard (JEVS) G105-1993 from the JARI. |
27338603_1_4 | 27338603 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO. Connector design
In addition to carrying power, the connector also makes a data connection using the CAN bus protocol. This performs functions such as a safety interlock to avoid energizing the connector before it is safe (similar to SAE J1772), transmitting battery parameters to the charging station including when to stop charging (top battery percentage, usually 80%), target voltage, and total battery capacity, and while charging how the station should vary its output current. |
27338603_1_5 | 27338603 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO. Connector design
The first protocol issued was CHAdeMO 0.9, which offered maximum charging power of 62.5 kW (125 A × 500 V DC). Version 1.0 followed in 2012, enhancing vehicle protection, compatibility, and reliability. Version 1.1 (2015) allowed the current to dynamically change during charging; Version 1.2 (2017) increased maximum power to 200 kW (400 A × 500 V DC), before publishing Version 2.0 (2018) with increased voltage (1000 V DC, see below). |
27338603_1_6 | 27338603 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO. Vehicle-to-grid (V2G)
CHAdeMO published its protocol for vehicle-to-grid integration (VGI; aside from vehicle to grid [V2G or V2B], applications also include vehicle to load [V2L] or home-off grid [V2H], collectively denoted V2X) in 2014 and as of January 2022, CHAdeMO remains the only standardised charging protocol that defines V2X and has mass-produced cars and chargers (power conditioners) readily capable of it. V2X technology enables EV owners to use the car as an energy storage, which saves costs by optimising energy usage and providing services to the Grid. Since 2012, multiple V2X demo projects using V2X capacities of the CHAdeMO protocol have been demonstrated worldwide. Some of the recent projects include UCSD INVENT in the United States, as well as Sciurus and e4Future in the United Kingdom that are supported by Innovate UK. |
27338603_1_7 | 27338603 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO. CHAdeMO 2.0: High-power charging
CHAdeMO published its protocol for 400 kW (400 A × 1 kV) 'ultra-fast' charging in May 2018 as CHAdeMO 2.0. CHAdeMO 2.0 allowed the standard to better compete with the CCS 'ultra-fast' stations being built around the world as part of new networks such as IONITY charging consortium. |
27338603_2_0 | 27338603 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO. CHAdeMO 3.0: ChaoJi harmonisation
In August 2018, CHAdeMO Association announced they were co-developing the next-generation ultra-high-power protocol, named CHAdeMO 3.0, with China Electricity Council (CEC), which would harmonise the CHAdeMO standard with the CEC GB/T 20234.3 standard. This project includes a new connector with the code name ChaoJi (), and plans to increase charging rate to 900 kW (600 A x 1.5 kV), all the while ensuring backward compatibility with the current CHAdeMO and GB/T 20234.3 (IEC 62916-3 configuration BB) DC chargers, according to the Association. It was revealed that ChaoJi can also be made backward compatible with CCS and such study is under consideration as of summer 2019. The ChaoJi connector could also take the place of the DC connector of CCS Combo 2. |
27338603_2_1 | 27338603 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO. CHAdeMO 3.0: ChaoJi harmonisation
By adopting liquid cooling within the cable and moving the locking mechanism from the connector to the vehicle, the ChaoJi connector is significantly lighter and more compact than the prior CHAdeMO design. IEC 68151-1 prohibits the use of adapters for high power charging; an amendment was submitted by the ChaoJi alliance to allow the use of adapters. A prototype adapter was built by Fujikura, but it was inflexible and heavy at nearly because the cable did not use internal cooling. |

In the meantime, high-power CHAdeMO charging technology is also advancing. High-power CHAdeMO stations are being constructed in North America as well as in Europe since 2018. In July 2019, UL has issued a certification to UL 2251 to accommodate CHAdeMO's "boost mode" high-power charging using a non-cooled cable assembly. |
27338603_3_0 | 27338603 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO | CHAdeMO. In charging stations
CHAdeMO-type fast charging stations have initially been installed in great numbers by the utility TEPCO in Japan, which required the creation of an additional power distribution network to supply these stations. Since then, CHAdeMO charger installation has expanded its geographical reach and in January 2022, the CHAdeMO Association stated that there were 44,900 CHAdeMO chargers installed in 96 countries. These included 7,700 charging stations in Japan, 22,500 in Europe, 8,000 in North America, and 1,000 elsewhere. For the historic evolution of CHAdeMO installation, see above under History. |

As a junior in 2009–10, Jenkins once again increased most of his season averages. He scored 20.6 points, grabbed 4.5 rebounds, dished out 3.9 assists and shot 40.9% from three-point range. On November 30, 2009, in an 84–80 win versus Fairfield, he scored a career-high 38 points on 12-for-17 shooting and went 9-for-9 in free throw attempts. Although the Pride would finish the year with a 19–15 overall record, Jenkins' personal play was good enough to make him the Colonial Athletic Association Men's Basketball Player of the Year. Additionally, he became just the ninth repeat winner of the Haggerty Award. |

In the 2011 NBA draft, Jenkins was selected in the second round (44th overall) by the Golden State Warriors.

On December 9, 2011, he officially signed with the Warriors. Twenty-two-year-old Jenkins made his NBA debut on December 25, 2011, in the Warriors' 2011–12 season opener against the Los Angeles Clippers. Briefly entering the contest, he finished with one assist in 1 minute of action. Settling into the role of fighting for starting point guard Steph Curry's backup minutes, rookie Jenkins ended up getting unexpected opportunities in the second part the season due to Curry's persistent ankle injuries. Though the team had brought in Nate Robinson early into the lockout-shortened season to take most of Curry's point guard backup minutes, Jenkins ended up often starting in place of injured Curry. The rookie's minutes especially increased from March 2012, as Curry was ruled out for the rest of the season and Monta Ellis got traded. On March 24, 2012, Jenkins scored career-high 27 points in a 90–87 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers, continuing to post improved numbers until the end of the season and finishing with an average of 5.8 points and 3.3 assists in 51 games, 28 of them starts. |

Heading into his second season at Golden State, Jenkins participated in the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas throughout July 2012. Playing alongside Warriors teammates such as rookie Harrison Barnes and fellow second-year player Klay Thompson, Jenkins had a good showing as the team won each of its five games with Jenkins the top scorer in two of them. Just before the Summer League, in anticipation of Robinson leaving, the team had signed point guard Jarrett Jack with the question of who would be Curry's primary backup in the upcoming season, Jack or Jenkins, initially left open. |

HMS Laura was an of the Royal Navy, launched in 1806 at Bermuda. Laura served during the Napoleonic Wars before a French privateer captured her at the beginning of the War of 1812. She was briefly an American letter of marque before the British recaptured her in 1813. Despite having recaptured her, the British did not return Laura to service. |

Laura was built at Bermuda of the pencil cedar . The Adonis-class schooners were a little larger and much better armed than the Ballahoo- and Cuckoo-class schooners that they followed. The Admiralty's intent was to improve survivability of these dispatch boats. |

In March 1806 Laura was commissioned under Lieutenant Joseph R.R. Webb, for the Channel. |

In 1807 Lieutenant Robert Yetts took command and on 28 March he sailed Laura for the Leeward Islands. On 4 August 1807, Laura was in company with the schooner Ballahoo, of four guns, when they encountered the French letter of marque brig Rhone some 16 miles north of Tobago. After a running fight of several hours, they captured Rhone after she had suffered two dead and five wounded out of her crew of 26; the British had no casualties. Rhone, under the command of Francis Goureu, was of 90 tons (bm), mounted six long 6-pounder guns, and was 10 days out from Martinique, having captured nothing. |

In 1809 Lieutenant Charles Newton Hunter took command in the Leeward Islands. On 6 February 1810 Laura was present at the surrender of Guadeloupe. In 1847 the Admiralty the Naval General Service Medal with clasp "Guadaloupe" to all surviving claimants from the campaign. |

In August 1812 Laura was escorting convoys but on 8 September she encountered the French privateer brig Diligent, under Alexis Grassin, off the Delaware River. Laura had just captured three American prizes and was in the process of taking a fourth when Diligent arrived on the scene. Hunter recalled his boat and her men from the prize and sailed to engage, even though he knew from his third prize that Diligent out-manned and outgunned Laura. |

Laura's crew had been reduced to 41 men because of the need to man the prizes she had taken, and she was short of officers for the same reason. The need to guard 25 American prisoners further reduced her effective strength. At the time of the engagement, Laura carried two short 9-pounders in addition to her ten 18-pounder carronades, while Diligent normally carried 16 French 24-pounder carronades and two long 12-pounder guns. However, Diligent had stowed three of her cannon in the hold for stability in a recent gale. She also had a crew of 97 men rather than her usual 120. |

The two vessels exchanged fire for an hour. Fire from Diligent wounded Hunter and the sole remaining officer, Midshipman John Griffith, and killed or wounded 13 of Lauras crew of 41. Consequently, the crew hardly resisted when the French finally were able to board. Lloyd's List reported that Laura had lost one man killed and six wounded out of her crew of 48 men, and that Diligent had lost one man killed and nine wounded out of her crew of 78 men. |

Captain Grassin of Diligent took his prize to Philadelphia. One of Lauras prizes was the Rising States, which Diligent recaptured and sent into Philadelphia; Rising states arrived there on 12 September. |

At his court martial at Halifax the Board acquitted Hunter for the loss of Laura. The combination of Lauras loss and the belief Diligent had also had heavy casualties of nine killed and 10 wounded provided clear evidence that Hunter had done his utmost. However, the board condemned Seaman James Cooper, who had surrendered Laura while Hunter was having his wounds dressed, to death. Later his sentence was reduced to seven years transportation. |

Father Capodanno Boulevard, formerly Seaside Boulevard, is the primary north-south artery that runs through the Arrochar, South Beach, Ocean Breeze, Midland Beach, and New Dorp Beach neighborhoods of the New York City borough of Staten Island. The boulevard runs parallel to the South Beach Boardwalk and its public park. |
27338729_0_1 | 27338729 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Father%20Capodanno%20Boulevard | Father Capodanno Boulevard | Father Capodanno Boulevard. History
Fr. Capodanno Boulevard was originally conceived by New York City parks commissioner Robert Moses, as the northernmost stretch of a planned limited-access highway to be named Shore Front Drive. The road was built in 1955–1958 as Seaside Boulevard, as part of an improvement to the boardwalk. The first section of the boulevard opened in 1957. The name was changed in 1976 to honor Vincent R. Capodanno, a local Roman Catholic chaplain who was killed in the Vietnam War in 1967. |
27338729_0_2 | 27338729 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Father%20Capodanno%20Boulevard | Father Capodanno Boulevard | Father Capodanno Boulevard. Description
The road exists today as the primary boulevard for the communities and public parks of Staten Island's East Shore. The road currently consists of six vehicular lanes: four driving lanes, a parking lane with turning bays southbound and a bus lane northbound. Previously existing bicycle lanes were removed in 2010 "without any discernible public process". Northbound and southbound traffic is divided by a grassy center median. To avoid Hylan Boulevard's traffic congestion, Father Capodanno Boulevard is also used as a "short cut" to the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge by residents of the island's more inland and southern communities. |
