 Robert's Rules of Order Revised - I
But he may combine the motion to suspend the rules with the motion for whose adoption it was made; and the motion to reconsider a resolution and its amendments; and a member may offer a resolution and at the same time move to make it a special order for a specified time.
It is out of order to be standing when another has the floor, and the one guilty of this violation of the rules cannot claim he rose first, as he did not rise after the floor had been yielded.
He must either rule it out of order, or state the question on it so that the assembly may know what is before it for consideration and action, that is, what is the immediately pending question.

 Convention, Social Order, and the Two Coordinations
The leading example of a spontaneous order that is good in metacoordination is a catallaxy, "the special kind of spontaneous order produced by the market through people acting within the rules of the law of property, tort and contract" (Hayek 1976: 109).
Some social orders, such as the skeleton of activities within the firm or within the hypothetical socialist economy, are consciously planned.
He notes that the free-market order is not manifest: he writes of "the enormous complexity of the entire collective system of behavior, a system that the individuals who comprise the system needn't know anything about or even be aware of" (22).

 European ordering rules - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
When lists of names or words need to be ordered, but the context does not define a particular single language or alphabet, the European ordering rules provide a way to put them in sequence.
At first, try to order two strings based just on comparing "first level letters", ignoring diacritical marks, considering "second level letters" as equivalent to the corresponding first level letters, considering capital and lowercase letters as equivalent, and ignoring special characters.
If there is a tie, reconsider, taking diacritical marks into account, in an order as specified in the standard (which is usually the same as the order in Unicode).

In related news, the committee's special counsel filed motions in Hartford Superior Court to order some reluctant witnesses to comply with subpoenas for documents and testimony.
John Wayne Fox, D-Stamford, co-chairman of the inquiry committee, said he was disappointed with the ruling and suggested the commission was upset by the recent legislation that will keep tens of thousands of documents private until after the inquiry panel finishes its work.
But FOI Commissioner Andrew J. O'Keefe, who issued a preliminary ruling Monday siding with the governor's lawyers, said the commission should only consider what the law was at the time of Rowland's request and denial of the documents.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Order of Friars Minor Conventuals
The latter appears never to have availed himiself of this right, and the Conventuals may be regarded as an entirely independent order from 1517, but it was not until 1580 that they obtained a special cardinal protector of their own.
The mission of Moldavia, which is one of the oldest in the Seraphic Order, comprises 10 convents with parishes, in which there are 28 missionaries governed by an archbishop belonging to the order.
On 22 March, 1631, the right of the Minister General of the Friars Minor to the title in dispute was solemnly confirmed by the Sacred Congregation of Rules, and Benedict XIII by a Bull of 21 July, 1728, imposed perpetual silence upon the contestants.

 Shakespeare's Unorthodox Biography - New Evidence of an Authorship Problem by Diana Price
Fortunately, all one has to do is to watch for Price's instances of special pleading, dismiss any associated arguments, and let the documentation which survives this exercise speak for itself.
Rather, this issue provides a good example of special pleading by the orthodox in defense of Shakspere's literary biography.
Biographers have made exceptions to their own rules in order to admit, transmute, or create evidence for Shakespeare to support his career as a playwright.

 Recitation 3: Higher order functions
We use the same rules as earlier: when a function is applied (called), we replace the call with the body of the function, with the argument variables (actually, variables appearing in the argument pattern) bound to the corresponding actual values.
Functions that return other functions are so common in functional programming that ML provides a special syntax for them.
So for example, in the sqrt function, the type of Error will be real since the expression must evaluate to a real.

The Special Tribunal’s principles of criminal law and rules of procedure and evidence should be based on international standards.
The Special Tribunal should, however, be able to take necessary measures to preserve evidence in order to ensure that a subsequent trial in the presence of the accused is possible.
To facilitate participation by witnesses, both victim and non-victim, at the Special Tribunal and to promote their psychological well being, we recommend that witnesses be provided with basic support and counseling services, and protective measures from the commencement of an investigation through trial, and where appropriate, post-trial.

These rules must therefore have very strong requirements about the minimum allowable visibility, the distance such flights must remain from clouds, and restrictions on entering areas of heavy traffic.
Under Instrument Flight rules, the pilot depends on specialized instrumentation for navigation.
