		In the USA, some cities, led by the Brooklyn-Manhattan Transit Corporation (BMT—New York), subscribed to the all-four concept of using buses, trolleybuses, trams (in U.S. called streetcars, trolleys or light rail) and rapid transit subway and/or elevated lines (metros), as appropriate, for routes ranging from lightly-used to the heaviest trunk line.
		The need for mass transit in cities away from the front was urgent, but construction of tram lines was too expensive and time-consuming.
		This restored Soviet plans of mass transit development in the form of co-existence of subways, trams, and trolleys.

		They also found 33 mass graves, the largest of which were 210 by 60 feet.
		The mass graves of the camp's victims remained, however, and in the postwar years some of the local inhabitants disturbed them to look for any valuables buried with the victims.

	Information on the Romanian Constitution Referendum 2003
		BUCHAREST : As Romania went into the second and final day of a referendum on a new constitution, attention was focussed mainly on whether enough people would turn out to make the result valid.
		In the capital Bucharest, the turn-out on the first day was a mere 11.82 percent, while in several regions in the north of the country less than one voter in 10 turned out, the commission said.

	History of Romanians
		The Slavs, who massively settled since the 7th century south of the Danube, split the compact mass of Romanians in the Carpathian-Danubian area: the ones to the north (the Daco-Romanians) were separated from the ones to the south, who were moved towards the west and Southeast of the Balkan Peninsula (Aromanians, Megleno-Romanians and Istro-Romanians).
		After the first success, the Romanian army was forced to abandon part of the country, Bucharest included and to withdraw to Moldavia, owing to the joint offensive of the armies in Transylvania, commanded by General von Falkenhayn and those of Bulgaria, commanded by Marshal von Mackensen.
		Romania was compelled to follow in the steps of her Russian ally, because on the Moldavian front the Romanian troops were interspersed with the Russian ones and it was impossible for combat to continue on one area of the front and for peace to settle on another front area, and so on.

	MOLDOVA REFUSES MASS CONFERRAL OF ROMANIAN CITIZENSHIP - Eurasia Daily Monitor
		With Romania’s accession to the European Union effective January 1, Bucharest believes that a large part of Moldova’s population will be tempted to take up Romanian citizenship in order to travel freely on EU territory.
		Bucharest insisted all along on introducing historical and philological references unacceptable to Chisinau into the political treaty.
		Bucharest’s decision to “come to the aid” of Moldovans with the offer of Romanian citizenship may well, however, stem from a selfless motive.

	Ephemerides of the Largest Asteroids
		However, because the asteroids have relatively little mass and are subject to perturbations by other asteroids the actual uncertainties in their mean motions are likely to be a few tenths of an arc second per century, 3 Juno is a particular case in point.
		However, the mass of Pallas is not based on a single encounter with Ceres but on a series of close encounters that occurred in the years shortly after the discovery of Pallas early in the nineteenth century.
		However, aside from the dependence in determining the mass of Ceres on the mass used for Pallas, all of the masses are quite robust and the uncertainties in their masses are quite realistic.

		Abstract: A study is reported of the influence of the saturation of the dipole momentum of an exciton transition on transient transmission of ultrashort laser pulses by a thin semiconductor film in the exciton range of spectrum.
		The materials were characterized by secondary ion mass spectrometry and nuclear techniques, such as Rutherford backscattering spectrometry, to determine concentration depth-profiles, and by transmission electron microscopy for the nanoclusters detection and size evaluation.

	U.S. Assistance Programs in Europe: An Assessment
		Despite setbacks in the mid-1990s, Bulgaria's lengthy transition to a market-oriented, democratic society has been remarkably steady, highlighted by the 2002 invitation to join NATO and its anticipated 2007 invitation to join the EU.
		The FREEDOM Support Act was thus assumed to be a short-term, transitional set of programs that would be phased out in five or six years, once these states had been set firmly on the path of reform.
		In recognition of the progress Russia has made in its transition towards market-based democracy, the FY 2004 funding request is significantly lower than in previous years.
