The audio, video, and metadata are packaged into 80-byte Digital Interface Format ( DIF ) blocks which are multiplexed into a 150-block sequence.

The DIF's reserves are not the only cash resources available to the FDIC: in addition to the $ 18 billion in the DIF as of June, 2010 ; the FDIC has $ 19 billion of cash and U. S. Treasury securities held as of June, 2010 and has the ability to borrow up to $ 500 billion from the Treasury.

A study by UNICEF Mexico and the DIF / National System for Integral Family Development estimated that more than 16, 000 children in Mexico were involved in prostitution ( in June 2000 ); a 2004 study by researcher Elena Azaola estimated that some 17, 000 children under the age of 18 are victims of the sex trade in Mexico ; the State System of Integral Family Development ( DIF ) reported that more than 20, 000 minors were victims of child prostitution in Mexico in 2005, an increase since the year 2000.

) SAIF was administered by the FDIC alongside its sister fund for banks, Bank Insurance Fund ( BIF ) until 2006 when the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005 ( effective February 2006 ) provided, among other provisions, that the two funds merge to constitute the Depositor Insurance Fund ( DIF ), which would continue to be administered by the FDIC.

The FDIC estimates that the cost to the Deposit Insurance Fund ( DIF ) for both institutions will be $ 850 million.

Using the process, IRS personnel did achieve stated goals in that the DIF model predicted taxpayer type ( evasion or no evasion ) better than the classification accuracy that would be achieved by chance alone ( random selection ).

Video is stored either as native DIF bitstream or wrapped into an audio / video container such as AVI, QuickTime and MXF.

A utility called File Gateway allowed import and export of common file formats of the era such as Data Interchange Format ( DIF ), SYLK, Lotus 1-2-3, and dBase files.

Calc also supports a wide range of other file formats, for both opening and saving files, such as CSV, HTML, SXC, DBF, DIF, UOF, SLK, SDC and others.

In 2006, the SAIF and its sister fund for banks ( Bank Insurance Fund or BIF ), also administered by the FDIC, were combined to form the Deposit Insurance Fund ( DIF ) under the provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005.

At the end of this street, there is a large handcrafts store funded by a government agency called DIF, which focuses on crafts from the state such as indigenous clothing, and ceramic figures, especially xoloizcuintle dogs.

It has its own art gallery, the Galería Veracruzana de Arte ( Veracruz Gallery of Art ), which is a joint Project between the World Trade Center Veracruz and the Coordinación de Difusión Cultural y Artística del Sistema DIF Estatal ( Coordination of Cultural and Artistic Diffusion of the State DIF System ).

The Rapier's 1390 cc engine was essentially the same as that fitted to the Hillman Minx but with a raised compression ratio ( 8: 1 instead of 7: 1 ), a Zenith DIF 36 carburettor and revised inlet and exhaust manifolds.

Governor Virgílio Távora ( 1963 – 1966 ) initiated the implantation of Industrial District of Fortaleza ( DIF I ).

In 1983 DIF I started to integrate the territory of the new city of Maracanaú, which, just some years ago, was made again part of the Greater Fortaleza ( the city's Metropolitan area ).

Among the highlights of this law was merging the Bank Insurance Fund ( BIF ) and the Savings Association Insurance Fund ( SAIF ) into a new fund, the Deposit Insurance Fund ( DIF ).

Concrete blocks are passed between the beams and put on the boards.

The roof blocks are in two layers and are not mortared together.

The last roof boards are covered with blocks from outside the shelter.

When the roof blocks are all in place, the final rows of wall blocks are mortared into position.

Solid concrete blocks, relatively heavy and dense, are used for this shelter.

These blocks are sold in various sizes so it seldom is necessary to cut a block to fit.

Solid blocks are recommended because hollow blocks would have to be filled with concrete to give effective protection.

If they are used, the walls and roof should be 10 inches thick to give the same protection as the 8-inch solid concrete blocks.

Two walls of concrete blocks are constructed at least 20 inches apart.

Whole blocks are disappearing and more are scheduled to vanish to make room for wide boulevards that will show off its treasures to better advantage -- the great domes and graceful spires of its mosques, the panorama of the Bosphorus and the Golden Horn.

The joints are also reinforced on each side with small blocks set in resin-saturated Fiberglas cloth and nailed.

In normal use weights are hung on the end of the tape and allowed to pull the tape and the material to be tested between the blocks.

Atomic orbitals are the basic building blocks of the atomic orbital model ( alternatively known as the electron cloud or wave mechanics model ), a modern framework for visualizing the microscopic behavior of electrons in matter.

As widespread inefficiencies in numbering ( such as the assignment of entire blocks of 10000 numbers to every competing carrier in every small village to support local number portability schemes ) have created shortages of available numbers, these prefixes are often " reclaimed " and issued as standard exchanges, moving the handful of numbers in them to one standard test exchange ( usually 958 ).

If 16 scanlines of continuous graphical data are written to a character-block-aligned portion of the screen then they will appear as a continuous block in most modes but in the two non-continuous modes they will be displayed as two blocks of 8 scanlines, separated in the middle by two blank scanlines.

Other object types, including AutoCAD 2006's dynamic blocks, and all of the objects specific to the vertical-market versions of AutoCAD, are partially documented, but not well enough to allow other developers to support them.

When in “ 7800 ” mode ( signified by the appearance of the full screen Atari logo ), the graphics are generated entirely by the MARIA graphics processing unit, all system RAM is available and game data is accessed in larger 48K blocks.

Braille characters are small rectangular blocks called cells that contain tiny palpable bumps called raised dots.

In doubles, a lift is the safest option but it usually allows the opponents to continue smashing ; blocks and drives are counter-attacking strokes, but may be intercepted by the smasher's partner.

* Atomism, philosophy about the basic building blocks of reality

The most popular form of online graphics was ANSI art, which combined the IBM Extended ASCII character set's blocks and symbols with ANSI escape sequences to allow changing colors on demand, provide cursor control and screen formatting, and even basic musical tones.

These groups can be seen as the basic building blocks of all finite groups, in much the same way as the prime numbers are the basic building blocks of the natural numbers.

During the classical era of Buddhist philosophy in India, philosophers such as Dharmakirti argue for a dualism between states of consciousness and Buddhist atoms ( the basic building blocks that make up reality ), according to " the standard interpretation " of Dharmakirti's Buddhist metaphysics.

Typically in Western philosophy, dualism is considered to be a dualism between mind ( nonphysical ) and brain ( physical ), which ultimately involves mind interacting with the physical brain, and therefore also interacting with the micro-particles ( basic building blocks ) that make up the brain tissue.

Buddhist dualism, in Dharmakirti ’ s sense, is different in that it is not a dualism between the mind and brain, but rather between states of consciousness ( nonphysical ) and basic building blocks ( according to the Buddhist atomism of Dharmakirti, Buddhist atoms are also nonphysical: they are unstructured points of energy ).

The basic formations include wheels, blocks, lines, circles, and intersections.

If an elementary particle truly has no substructure, then it is one of the basic building blocks of the universe from which all other particles are made.

Procedures are the basic building blocks of Icon programs, and although they use Pascal naming they work more like C functions and can return values ; there is no keyword in Icon.

The current worldview has it that everything is made of matter, and everything can be reduced to the elementary particles of matter, the basic constituents — building blocks — of matter.

And cause arises from the interactions of these basic building blocks or elementary particles ; elementary particles make atoms, atoms make molecules, molecules make cells, and cells make brain.

Jazz guitarists integrate the basic building blocks of scales and arpeggio patterns into balanced rhythmic and melodic phrases that make up a cohesive solo.

One of the basic building blocks in MEMS processing is the ability to deposit thin films of material with a thickness anywhere between a few nanometres to about 100 micrometres.

Mereological nihilism ( also called compositional nihilism ) is the position that objects with proper parts do not exist ( not only objects in space, but also objects existing in time do not have any temporal parts ), and only basic building blocks without parts exist, and thus the world we see and experience full of objects with parts is a product of human misperception ( i. e., if we could see clearly, we would not perceive compositive objects ).

Nitrogen fixation, natural and synthetic, is essential for all forms of life because nitrogen is required to biosynthesize basic building blocks of plants, animals and other life forms, e. g., nucleotides for DNA and RNA and amino acids for proteins.

Given basic sound blocks, that a machine digitized, one has a bunch of numbers which describe a wave and waves describe words.

Since basic blocks have no control flow, these optimizations need very little analysis ( saving time and reducing storage requirements ), but this also means that no information is preserved across jumps.

This tends to merge several basic blocks into one.

; Code-block reordering: Code-block reordering alters the order of the basic blocks in a program in order to reduce conditional branches and improve locality of reference.

In the above, we have 4 basic blocks: A from 0 to 1, B from 2 to 3, C at 4 and D at 5.

Dead code and some infinite loops are possible even if the programmer didn't explicitly code that way: optimizations like constant propagation and constant folding followed by jump threading could collapse multiple basic blocks into one, cause edges to be removed from a CFG, etc., thus possibly disconnecting parts of the graph.
