 Safe house - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Safe houses were an integral part of the Underground railroad, a network of safe locations which were used to assist slaves to escape to freedom in the United States.
A safe house is a location placed in the neighbourhood where a trusted adult or family or charity organisation has agreed to provide a safe place for battered wives and abused children to go to, when they feel that their life is threatened by domestic abuse.
Safe houses also provided a refuge for Jewish and other victims of Nazi persecution like Anne Frank and for escaping Prisoners of war.

 Safe trade - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Safe trade is a concept advocated by Greenpeace, some indigenous peoples (particularly those who feel threatened by the imposition of a monoculture) and by some elements of the anti-globalization movement.
Other safe trade reforms seek to advance sustainability by reducing reliance on energy subsidies and oil-based transport, and (indirectly) improves equity in economic affairs - that is, it promotes a safer political economy which is more respectful of life in general.
Safe trade is a major goal of systems of Bioregional democracy and is often advocated alongside it, e.g.

 Safe sex - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Safe sex, also called safer sex, is a set of practices designed to reduce the risk of transmitting sexually-transmitted infections (STIs) (also known as sexually-transmitted diseases or STDs).
Although safe sex practices can be used as a form of family planning, the term refers to efforts made to prevent infection rather than conception.
Many safe sex advocates believe that harm reduction is more practical than merely exhorting people to avoid having sex outside of marital relationships.

 Safe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A safe is usually a hollow cuboid or cylinder, with one face removable or hinged to form a door.

Opening a safe without access to the key or knowledge of the combination is known as safe-cracking.

 Passively safe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Passively safe is a form of nuclear reactor which uses the laws of physics to keep the nuclear reaction under control rather than engineered safety systems.
The pebble bed reactor is an example of a passively safe reactor - it uses 'pebbles' of uranium encased in graphite to moderate the reaction - the more heat produced, the more the pebbles expand, causing the reaction to slow down.
It is widely believed that passively safe reactors are the future of the industry, for the passive safety allows for economies of scale via mass production.

 Speed limit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Speed limit signage is always displayed in km/h, and speeds increase or decrease by a minimum interval of 10 km/h.
Opposition to speed limits in the United States is made obvious by the frequently low compliance with speed limits and the open use of radar detectors, which are legal in all jurisdictions except Virginia and Washington, DC.
Speeds above 55 mph (88 km/h) are generally not possible because of the quality of the road system, although speeds of up to 125 mph (200 km/h) are still achievable in the right places, such as the Mumbai-Pune Expressway.

 Safe-cracking - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The most surreptitious way of cracking a safe is to manipulate the lock in order to obtain the combination required to open the safe without actually damaging the safe.
Safe-cracking is the process of opening a safe, generally without the authorization or knowledge of the safe's owner.
All but the simplest safes are designed to protect against drilling attacks through the implementation of hardplate steel within the safe, protecting the locking mechanism.

 Safe Havens
It is clear that a safe zone that represented a territorial or a military threat would be a contradiction in terms.[22] The risk faced by a safe area that is not clearly civilian is obvious; it will become an element in the conflict and may be attacked if it is seen as threatening.
This attempt to restructure safe havens should be seen as a parallel attempt to an increased protection of the non-refoulement norm, which has been at the heart of the problem in recent safe-haven operations.
It is the acceptance of a safe haven by the parties that "(underlies) subsequent respect for its condition."[24] This criterion can largely be linked to the demilitarization criterion, because it is clear that a party will not consent to a safe haven if it represents a military threat.

 Typed Assembly Language
Consequently, TAL is an ideal target platform for type-directed compilers that want to produce verifiably safe code for use in secure mobile code applications or extensible operating system kernels.
We have implemented a variant of TAL for Intel's IA32 architecture called TALx86, and have written a compiler for a safe C-like language called Popcorn to TALx86.
Moreover, the typing constructs are expressive enough to encode most source language programming features including records and structures, arrays, higher-order and polymorphic functions, exceptions, abstract data types, subtyping, and modules.

 Insurance Information Network of California
Safe speeds are relative, so the Insurance Information Network of California urges each driver to be aware of the current driving conditions and the posted speed limits, which typically are set based on a roadway's design.
Higher speeds result in higher risks of injury or death in a traffic crash, because vehicles and their occupants in motion have kinetic energy that is dissipated in a crash.
Speed reduces the reaction time drivers need to avoid crashes, which not only increases the likelihood of crashing but also increases the severity of crashes that do occur.

 Procedures For Speed Zoning On State And Municipal Roadways (Massachusetts Highway Department)
The value of the speed limit for each zone should generally be equal to or slightly less than the average of the values of the safe speeds for speed observation locations within the zone.
Spot speed checks are of prime importance since they represent the opinion of the drivers using the roadway as to what the safe speed is at a given location.
Gravel and unpaved roadways are not typically speed zoned due to the fact that it is impossible to establish a consistent road surface and the conditions of such roads tend to change over a relatively short period of time.

 Minnesota Guide to Establishing Speed Limits in Highway Work Zones
Temporary speed limits in construction zones should be used when the roadway construction environment will continuously dictate a reduced speed and it is imperative for the motorist to reduce speed in order to safely navigate hazards that may be encountered over the length of the project.
Temporary speed limits in construction zones are regulatory speed zones intended for a 24 hour continuous posting established in long term projects where it is imperative for the motorist to reduce speeds in order to safely navigate through hazards over the length of the project.
Proper and uniform application of these speed limits should improve the safety of the highway worker and the traveling public.

 Encyclopedia: Prime Minister of Canada
If the prime minister should fail to win his or her seat, a junior MP in a safe seat would typically resign to permit a by-election to elect that leader to a seat.
However, if the leader of the governing party is changed shortly before an election is due and the new leader is not a Member of Parliament, he or she will normally await the general election before running for a seat.
An election for every seat in the Commons (a general election) is called at most 5 years after the previous one; however, the prime minister has the power to call a general election at virtually any time.
