Administrative Data Liaison Service (ADLS)
The Administrative Data Liaison Service (ADLS) is funded by
the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) to support administrative
data based research in the UK. The main objectives of the service are to
raise awareness of administrative data, support academic researchers to
access and use administrative data in a safe, legal and ethical manner and
work with data holding organisations to improve access and quality of their
administrative data. The site provides information on the major admi
Olympic security : Better planning can enhance U.S. support to future Olympic Games
This is a United States Government Accountability Office report to the Committee on International Relations, House of Representatives on Olympic security. Published in June 2006 the full-text (43 pages) can be downloaded for free as a PDF file. The report recommends that the Secretary of State develop written guidance for providing U.S. government security support to future Games and develop a finance subgroup within the interagency working group to help agencies plan and prepare for future supp
Nutritional Anthropology Lecture 5: Political Ecology of Food Security (15 March 2010)
Professor Stanley Ulijaszek, of the Institute of Cultural Anthropology, Oxford, gave a lecture on 15 March 2010 forming part of the Nutritional Anthropology lecture series. It was entitled 'Political Ecology of Food Security'.
FLJS and Aspen Institute Lecture: Detention without Trial in Wartime Britain
Delivered by Prof. AWB Simpson at the Aspen Institute on 7 Jul 08, it gives an account of the response of the courts to detention without trial during WWII. It serves to open a two-day seminar entitled 'In Times of Crisis Can We Trust the Courts?' The lecture argues that the courts largely abandoned any role in protecting civil liberty, on the ground that, under the emergency legislation of the time, this was not their responsibility. It goes on to explain how the ratification of the European Co

6 Summary
The transformation of radioactive uranium and, in some instances, thorium isotopes provides vastly more energy per unit mass of fuel than any other energy source, except nuclear fusion, and therein lies its greatest attraction. The unit considers the advantages and limitations of generating this power and the environmental and security issues that the process raises.
4.2 Reactor safety: the Chernobyl incident
The transformation of radioactive uranium and, in some instances, thorium isotopes provides vastly more energy per unit mass of fuel than any other energy source, except nuclear fusion, and therein lies its greatest attraction. The unit considers the advantages and limitations of generating this power and the environmental and security issues that the process raises.

13 How do you protect children online?
Computer crashes are often the result of viruses, worms or Trojans as unfortunately some internet users want to cause havoc or vandalise your computer. This unit provides a guide to the downsides of living with the Net. Advice on how to deal with these dangers is provided and security issues like spyware and adware are explained. The unit also deals with protecting children online, and provides links to various helpful websites which deal with the problems raised.
