Developed for avalanche rescue, the RECCO Rescue System is used by more than 700 rescue organizations around the world to find buried avalanche victims and missing people. The RECCO system consists of two parts: a passive reflector integrated into clothing, boots, helmets, and body protection worn by skiers and riders; and an active detector used by organized rescue teams. As of 2009 the active part of RECCO system now utilizes a small hand-held detector named R9, which can easily be carried by one rescuer travelling on foot or from in a helicopter and has a range of more than 200 meters.

This thesis examines the television reporters' verbal depictions of two rescue events, the rescue of Jessica McClure in 1987 and the rescue of three whales at Pt.

Analog criticism, metaphorical analysis and pentadic analysis were used to discover the dominant language reporters chose. Three main conclusions were drawn from this analysis: (1) use of the dramatistic pentad showed how reporters focused public attention away from the purpose,(2) verbal and visual depictions cannot be

The low success rate of business rescue in South Africa has been presented as the research problem in the study.

This is fairly low compared to countries like the United Kingdom and the United States of America whose regimes inspired the development this Chapter 6.

The 2008 Global Financial Crisis has revealed the importance of maintaining financial stability. A big threat to the maintenance of financial stability is however bank failure. Especially if a bank is systemically important due to its size and interconnectedness it may propagate contagion and bank runs and trigger the collapse of a whole financial system. It is therefore pertinent that the issue of bank failures be addressed, preferably by extending assistance to such a failing bank where appropriate.

Abstract:
The aim of this thesis was to use biophysical methods to characterise the stabilities and DNA binding properties of monomeric and tetrameric p53 cancer mutants, and to study various approaches aimed at rescuing structural mutants of p53. A detailed study of the destabilising effects of p53 mutations was performed using differential scanning calorimetry and urea denaturation, while equilibrium binding of p53 mutants to a specific promoter sequence, <i>gadd45</i>, was studied using fluorescence anisotropy and analytical ultracentrifugation. This thesis will also discuss how p53 structural mutant
