	Introduction to UML statecharts (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		A finite state machine (FSM) specifies the events of interest to a reactive object, the set of states that object may assume, and the actions (and their order of execution) in response to incoming events in any given state.
		When the object is in the predecessor state (from which the transition arises) and the named event is sent to the object, the transition fires and the object moves to the new state executing the specified actions along the way.
		The primary difference between or-states and and-states is that when the object is in the enclosing composite state, it must be in every active and-state simultaneously (in other words, logically concurrent).

	unwind(5)
		A state machine is used as an aid to define the legal ordering of the tasks of a stack unwind operation and to describe the stack unwind library's response to calls from the client.
		The state machine is defined by eight states and transitions between the states which are triggered by calls to the stack unwind library API functions or in some cases by system conditions such as an out of memory condition.
		The unique characteristic of this state is the client may query for and obtain valid values of scratch branch, scratch predicate, scratch floating point, and scratch general registers as well as for preserved registers.

	International Law In Brief: Sept 13-24, 1999
		States are not required to attribute nationality to persons concerned who have their habitual residence in another state, and cannot force nationality upon persons with habitual residences in other states without their consent unless they would become stateless.
		States are to give consideration to the will of persons concerned by granting a right to opt for nationality where appropriate, and may make the voluntary acquisition of the nationality of a successor State a condition for the loss of its own nationality.
		Predecessor States shall withdraw their nationality from persons concerned that qualify for successor State nationality, so long as the persons concerned have already acquired the nationality of the successor State.

	State Succession in Respect of Human Rights Treaties
		State practice during the 1990s strongly supports the view that obligations arising from a human rights treaty are not affected by a succession of States.
		Successor States may therefore be held accountable for violations committed by the predecessor State, in accordance with any reporting and complaints procedures accepted by the predecessor State.
		The idea that humanitarian treaties adhered to by the predecessor State are binding ipso jure on the successor State has for decades been successfully promoted by the ILO and the ICRC with regard to the conventions within their purview.

	Vienna Convention on Succession of States in respect of Treaties (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		A newly independent State is not bound to maintain in force, or to become a party to, any treaty by reason only of the fact that at the date of the succession of States the treaty was in force in respect of the territory to which the succession of States relates.
		For the purpose of paragraph 1, unless a different intention appears from the treaty or is otherwise established, the signature by the predecessor State of a treaty is considered to express the intention that the treaty should extend to the entire territory for the international relations of which the predecessor State was responsible.
		Paragraph 1 does not apply if: (a) the States concerned otherwise agree; or (b) it appears from the treaty or is otherwise established that the application of the treaty in respect of the successor State would be incompatible with the object and purpose of the treaty or would radically change the conditions for its operation.

	Venice Commission - Commission de Venise
		The predecessor State shall not withdraw its nationality from its own nationals who have been unable to acquire the nationality of a successor State.
		The successor States may make the exercise of the right of option conditional on the existence of effective links, in particular ethnic, linguistic or religious, with the predecessor State and, in the case envisaged under number 13.b, also on the condition that the persons previously had the citizenship of a subdivision of the predecessor State.
		The exercise of the right to choose the nationality of the predecessor State, or of one of the successor States, shall have no prejudicial consequences for those making that choice, in particular with regard to their right to residence in the successor State and their moveable or immoveable property located therein.

	Perritt - Claims Resolution for Kosovo
		Claims incident to the dissolution of a state are similar to those arising in the context of other legal relationships, but the conflict of laws problems are more serious when states are involved.
		This is due, in part, to the traditional limitation of customary international law to relations among states, and to the conventional belief that private claims can be resolved by national legal systems of the debtor or creditor states according to private-international-law principles for adjudicative jurisdiction, judgment recognition and enforcement and choice of law.
		The Act of State Doctrine thus is a powerful barrier to litigation of private claims in national courts, when the outcome of the litigation is determined by an expropriation or nationalization law.

		Rewards and penalties are given % as follows: if the trial leads to a goal state (i.e., H), then a reward % of 1 is given; otherwise the agent is "penalized" by giving no reward % (i.e., the reward is 0).
		% % The optimal policy is then found by beginning in state S and choosing % max_s'{V(s')} for the successor states of s, s'.
		% This means that at the onset, each state has an equal % probability of going to the goal state.

	PAPower: AUDITOR GENERAL, STATE POLICE COMMISSIONER, ATTORNEY GENERAL UNITE TO PROTECT PA FAMILIES FROM SEX OFFENDERS
		HARRISBURG — State Police Commissioner Jeffrey B. Miller, Auditor General Jack Wagner, and Attorney General Tom Corbett today announced that their offices will immediately begin working together to ensure that the Commonwealth is performing its responsibilities to protect Pennsylvania families through Megan’s Law.
		Megan’s Law is named for Megan Kanka, a seven-year-old New Jersey girl who was brutally raped and murdered in 1994 by a twice-convicted sex offender who had moved across the street from her family without their knowledge.
		These laws generally require the establishment of registration programs so that local law enforcement will know the whereabouts of sex offenders released into their jurisdictions, and notification programs so that the public can be warned about sex offenders living in the community.
