Wieviele ein Wörterbuch von Maßeinheiten COPY Russ Rowlett und die University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill L die römische Ziffer 50. L, l Symbole für den Liter. Das Kleinbuchstabe l ist das offizielle Symbol, aber weil es so leicht mit der Ziffer 1 verwechselt wird, erlaubt das SI, stattdessen den Großbuchstaben L zu verwenden. Manchmal wird eine Skriptversion des Kleinbuchstaben verwendet, aber das ist nicht vom SI zugelassen. Laacuteb der traditionelle ungarische Fuß, gleich etwa 31,6 Zentimeter (12,44 englische Zoll). Das war die ungarische Version der Wiener Fuszlig. Arbeit eine traditionelle Einheit der Fläche in lateinamerikanischen Ländern. Die Arbeit ist gleich der Fläche eines quadratischen 1000 varas auf einer Seite oder 0,04 legua. Mit dem Texas-Standard für die Vara (33 13 Zoll), entspricht dies 177.136 Hektar oder 71.685 Hektar. Das Wort Arbeit bedeutet Arbeit auf Spanisch, wie es auf Englisch ist. Als Einheit repräsentiert er den Bereich, der von einem einzigen Bauern gezüchtet werden könnte, etwas wie das alte englische Versteck. Lachter eine traditionelle Längeneinheit im Bergbau in Deutschland und anderen deutschsprachigen Regionen. Eine Variation auf dem Fathom. Die Einheit variierte regional (und sogar von mir zu mir), aber es war in der Regel in der Nähe von 2 Metern (ca. 78,74 Zoll). Der lachter wurde in 8 spann oder in 80 lachterzoll aufgeteilt. Lachterzoll der quotlachter Zoll, eine traditionelle Einheit der Länge gleich 180 lachter (vorheriger Eintrag). Das war etwa 2,5 cm, etwa das gleiche wie der englische Zoll aber etwas kürzer als der deutsche Standardzoll. In den 1900er Jahren wurde auch ein Dezimal-Lachterzoll gleich 1100 Lachter verwendet, das etwa 2 cm (0,78 Zoll oder 0,76 Zoll) betrug. Lai siehe rai Lakh oder lac eine traditionelle Mengeneinheit in Indien, gleich 10 5 oder 100 000. In Indien wird das Lakh gewöhnlich statt der Million verwendet und Kommas werden verwendet, um die Anzahl der Lakh zu isolieren, z. B. die Zahl 5 300 000 wird genannt 53 lakh und geschrieben 53,00,000. Siehe auch crore. Lambda 91193 eine metrische Einheit des Volumens gleich dem Kubikmillimeter (mm 3) oder Mikroliter (181L). Die Lambda wurde in der Chemie bei der Messung sehr kleiner Proben verwendet. Das Symbol ist der Kleinbuchstabe griechischer Buchstabe lambda. Lambda 91293 eine Einheit der relativen Distanz, die bei der Konstruktion von integrierten Schaltungen in der Mikroelektronik verwendet wird. Diese Schaltungen sind in der Regel so skalierbar, dass das gleiche Design auf immer kleineren Chips wiederholt werden kann, wenn sich die Technik verbessert. Die Größe eines Designs ist die Breite des kleinsten Elements, und ein Lambda entspricht der Hälfte der Größe. Lambdas von einigen Zehntel eines Mikrometers (Mikrometer) sind üblich. Lambert (La oder Lb oder L) eine CGS-Einheit der Leuchtdichte. Die Leuchtdichte ist die Lichtstärke einer Oberfläche, die die Intensität des Lichtes misst, das in allen Richtungen pro Flächeneinheit der Oberfläche emittiert (reflektiert) wird. Ein lambert ist die Leuchtdichte einer Oberfläche, die ein Lumen pro Quadratzentimeter emittiert oder reflektiert. Der lambert ist eine große Einheit, und praktische Messungen neigen dazu, in Millilamberts (mLa) zu sein. Eine geometrische Berechnung zeigt, dass eine Fläche mit einer Intensität von einer Candela pro Quadratmeter einen Gesamtlichtfluss von pi-Lumen pro Quadratmeter ausgibt, ein Laterne entspricht 10 4 pi 3183.099 Candelas pro Quadratmeter und 1 Millilambert entspricht 3.183 099 Candelas Pro Quadratmeter. Der Lambert ehrt den deutschen Physiker Johann Lambert (1728-1777), der zeigte, daß die Beleuchtungsstärke einer Oberfläche umgekehrt proportional zum Quadrat der Distanz von der Lichtquelle ist. Es gab nie eine Einigung über das Symbol für den Lambert La ist eine gute Wahl, weil es unwahrscheinlich ist, mit irgendeinem anderen Einheitssymbol verwechselt zu werden. Lanac eine traditionelle Einheit der Landfläche in den Ländern des ehemaligen Jugoslawien. Die Nutzung variiert. In Serbien ist der Lanac etwa 0,56 Hektar (1,38 Hektar), so dass es das serbische Äquivalent des österreichischen joch und kroatischen jutro. In Kroatien ist die Lanac jedoch eine größere Einheit von 0,7193 Hektar (1,777 Hektar). Das Wort lanac bedeutet Kette, vermutlich bezieht sich auf Vermesser Gebrauch von Ketten in der Messung Land. Land Meile die gewöhnliche Statut Meile. Gleich 5280 Fuß oder 1609.344 Meter, wird manchmal eine Landmeile genannt, um sie von der Seemeile zu unterscheiden. Ebenso ist eine Landliga gleich 3 Statutenmeilen (5280 Yards oder 4828,03 Meter), die sich von 3 Seemeilen unterscheiden. Spur-Meter eine Einheit der Deck-Bereich für Roll Onroll off Schiffe: Frachtschiffe so konzipiert, dass Container oder andere Ladung auf und abseits der Decks des Schiffes gerollt werden kann. Eine Spur ist ein Streifen von Deck 2 Meter breit. Ein Spur Meter ist ein Bereich der Deck eine Spur breit und ein Meter lang, das heißt, 2 Quadratmeter (21.528 Quadratmeter). Langd eine traditionelle Einheit der Landfläche in Bhutan. Wie viele europäische Land-Einheiten, die langdo ist die Gegend, die ein Team von Ochsen in einem Tag pflügen kann. Wenn das Land trocken ist, ist eine langdo etwa 17 Hektar oder 13 Hektar für ein nasses Reisfeld die langdo ist etwa 110 Hektar oder 14 Hektar. Langy (Ly) eine CGS-Einheit der Wärmeübertragung gleich einer thermochemischen Kalorien pro Quadratzentimeter oder genau 41,84 Kilojoule pro Quadratmeter (kJm 2). Für den amerikanischen Astronomen Samuel P. Langley (1834-1906) benannt, wird die Langley verwendet, um die Rate der Sonnenstrahlung, die von der Erde empfangen wird, auszudrücken. Runde eine informelle Einheit der Distanz in Sportwettbewerbe verwendet. In der Leichtathletik (Track) ist eine Runde eine Länge um eine Laufstrecke. Dies kann von Track zu Track variieren, aber auf der Ebene der ernsten Konkurrenz haben die meisten Tracks eine Standardlänge. In englischsprachigen Ländern war dies früher 14 Meilen (1320 Fuß oder 402.336 Meter). Tracks, die in den meisten Wettbewerben heute verwendet werden, haben eine Länge von genau 400 Metern (1312.34 Fuß). Beim Schwimmen ist eine Runde eine Tour durch den Pool, das heißt, die doppelte Länge des Pools, eine Distanz von genau 100 Metern (328,08 Fuß) in olympischen Pools, aber nur 50 Meter (164,04 Fuß) in vielen Freizeit - und Kurzschlüssen - Gebäude Eine alte nordeuropäische Einheit, die bei der Messung großer Mengen verwendet wird, entweder durch Masse oder Volumen oder beides. Letztes ist das deutsche Wort für Last, eine Bedeutung, die auch im englischen Wort Ballast überlebt. Im Allgemeinen ist das letzte etwa 4000 Pfund (ca. 1800 Kilogramm) als Masseneinheit oder 80 Scheffel (ca. 3 Kubikmeter) als Volumeneinheit. In den USA war eine letzte Wolle früher 12 Säcke bei 364 Pfund pro Sack oder 4368 Pfund (1981,3 Kilogramm). In den Niederlanden ist das letzte eine metrische Einheitsvolumen gleich genau 3 Kubikmeter. In Deutschland, wo der letzte war zuvor eine Volumeneinheit gleich 2,819 Kubikmeter, seine auch eine metrische Einheit der Masse gleich 2 Tonnen (ca. 4409 Pfund). In Großbritannien ist ein Riga-Dur des Holzes 80 Kubikfuß (2.265 Kubikmeter) quadratgesägtes Holz. Lb, lbf, lbm lb ist das traditionelle Symbol auf Englisch, Spanisch und Italienisch für das Pfund. Abgeleitet aus dem lateinischen Wort libra für die römische Version der gleichen Einheit. Die Symbole lbf und lbm werden verwendet, um zwischen Pfund der Kraft und Pfund der Masse zu unterscheiden. LD siehe Mondabstand (unten). Lea eine traditionelle Einheit der Länge für Garn, variiert mit dem Gewicht der Fasern in das Garn. In der Regel ein Lea von Wolle ist 80 Meter (73 Meter) ein Lea aus Baumwolle oder Seide 120 Meter (110 Meter) und ein Lea von Leinen 300 Meter (274 Meter). Für Baumwolle und Wolle ist ein Lea gleich 17 Hank. Ein Lea wird manchmal als Strang bezeichnet. Liga eine traditionelle Einheit der Distanz. Abgeleitet von einer alten keltischen Einheit und von den Römern als Leuga angenommen. Die Liga wurde zu einer gemeinsamen Maßeinheit in ganz Westeuropa. Es war beabsichtigt, in etwa die Distanz zu repräsentieren, die eine Person in einer Stunde laufen konnte. Die keltische Einheit scheint ziemlich kurz gewesen zu sein (ca. 1,5 Römische Meilen, die etwa 1,4 Statuten Meilen oder 2275 Meter), aber die Einheit wurde im Laufe der Zeit länger. In vielen Fällen war es gleich 3 Meilen. Mit welcher Version der Meile war aktuell. Auf See war die Liga am häufigsten gleich 3 Seemeilen. Das ist 120 Grad 91293, 3,45 Satz Meilen oder genau 5556 Meter. In den USA und Großbritannien ist die übliche Praxis, die Liga zu definieren, um 3 Statutenmeilen (ungefähr 4828,03 Meter) auf Land oder 3 Seemeilen auf See zu sein. Allerdings sind viele Vorkommnisse der Liga in englischsprachigen Werken eigentlich Referenzen auf die spanische Liga (die legua), die portugiesische Liga (legoa) oder die französische Liga (Lüge). Für diese Einheiten siehe unten auf dieser Seite. Im klassischen Jules Verne Roman Zwanzig Tausend Ligen unter dem Meer (Vingt Mille Lieues sous les Mers) ist die Einheit im Titel die französische metrische Lüge. Gleich genau 4000 Meter. Springen Sie eine traditionelle walisische Einheit der Distanz gleich 6 Fuß 9 Zoll oder 2.0574 Meter. Sprung die zweite eine zusätzliche Sekunde hinzugefügt am Ende eines Tages (30. Juni oder 31. Dezember), um Zeitverschiebung mit der Erden Rate der Rotation neu ausrichten. Siehe Tag für Details. Schaltjahr eine Zivilzeit gleich 366 Tage. Siehe Jahr 91293. Normalerweise, der Tag der Woche, an der ein bestimmtes Datum fällt, fährt um einen Tag von Jahr zu Jahr. Zum Beispiel fällt der 1. August am Dienstag im Jahr 2006 und am Mittwoch im Jahr 2007. Nach dem Hinzufügen eines zusätzlichen Tages am 29. Februar fällt ein Date über einen Wochentag: 2008, ein Schaltjahr, 1. August springt über Donnerstag Am Freitag fallen. Ein Schaltjahr wird manchmal ein bissextiles Jahr genannt. Legua 91193 die spanische Liga. Die traditionelle legua ist gleich 5000 varas. Das ist in der Nähe von 2,6 Meilen oder 4,2 Kilometer. Mit der Texas-Definition der vara, ist die legua 2.6305 Meilen. 13889 Fuß. Oder 4233,4 Meter. Mit der traditionellen spanischen Definition, wäre es 2,597 Meilen, 13712 Fuß oder 4179,4 Meter. Technisch wurde diese Einheit von Philip II im Jahre 1568 abgeschafft, aber es blieb in ziemlich breitem Gebrauch, vor allem in Amerika. Während des späten 18. und frühen 19. Jahrhunderts war eine Liga von 8000 varas (4.15 Meilen oder 6680 Metern) in Spanien legal. Auf See nutzten spanische Seeleute die übliche Marine-Liga (3 Seemeilen oder 5556 Meter) oder Philip Vs geographische Liga von 117,5 Grad (3.429 Seemeilen oder 6350,5 Meter). Gegenwärtig wird die legua in Argentinien und in anderen spanischsprachigen Ländern als metrische Einheit gleich genau 5 Kilometer (3.107 Meilen) verwendet. Legua 91293 eine traditionelle spanische Einheit der Fläche gleich einer quadratischen legua 91193. Im spanischsprachigen Lateinamerika und den südwestlichen Staaten des US-Landes wurde üblicherweise in Leguas gemessen, mit 1 Legua gleich 25 Arbeiten (siehe oben) oder 25 Millionen Quadratmeter Varas Mit der Texas-Definition der Vara als Ausgangspunkt, ist die Legua 4428,4 Hektar. 6.919 Quadrat-Meilen, 1792 Hektar. Oder 17,92 Quadratkilometern. Eine etwas größere Zahl, 4439 Hektar (1796 Hektar), wird in Kalifornien verwendet. Größere Größen, zwischen 1800 und 1900 Hektar, wurden früher in einigen Teilen Südamerikas verwendet. In Mexiko und Texas wird diese Einheit oft als sitio bezeichnet. Leacutegua oder legoa die portugiesische Liga, gleich 3 milhas (portugiesische Meilen). Dies entspricht etwa 3,836 Statutenmeilen oder 6174,1 Metern. Länge (lg) eine informelle Einheit der Entfernung. Die Distanz zwischen Konkurrenten in Pferderennen, Bootsrennen und ähnlichen Situationen wird natürlich in Längen ausgedrückt, wobei eine Länge gleich der durchschnittlichen Länge eines Pferdes, Bootes usw. ist. Beim Pferderennen wird die Länge eines Pferdes oft verstanden Etwa 8 Fuß oder 2,4 Meter. Jedoch, da die Pferde eine andere Geschwindigkeit bewegen, ist der Abstand zwischen ihnen, wie sie sich in der Nähe der Ziellinie ändern. Um diese Unsicherheit zu vermeiden, wird der gemeldete Abstand in Längen oft als 5-fache der Differenz in ihren Laufzeiten in Sekunden berechnet. Dies bedeutet, dass die Länge tatsächlich als eine Zeiteinheit gleich 15 Sekunden interpretiert wird. (Da die Geschwindigkeit eines Vollblut-Pferdes oft 50 Fuß pro Sekunde übersteigt, unterschätzt diese Berechnung die Distanz.) Tödliche Dosis (LD) eine in der Pharmakologie verwendete Maßnahme, um den Prozentsatz einer durch eine Dosis der zu untersuchenden Substanz getöteten Bevölkerung auszudrücken. Die Messung wird oft als Index angegeben. Zum Beispiel wird die Potenz eines Medikaments oder Pestizids üblicherweise durch die Angabe der Größe der LD 50-Dosis ausgedrückt: die Menge der Substanz, die 50 der Testpopulation tötet. L oder li eine traditionelle Einheit der Entfernung in China. Ein konfuzianisches Sprichwort, das im Westen weitgehend zitiert wurde, als eine Reise von tausend Meilen mit einem einzigen Schritt beginnt, sagt eine Reise von tausend li beginnt mit einem einzigen Schritt. Obwohl die traditionelle li etwa 13 Meile oder 500 Meter, die späten Imperialen Regierungen von China verwendet ein li von 1800 chih. Das ist 2115 Fuß, ungefähr 0.401 Meile oder 644.65 Meter. Im modernen China entspricht der li genau 0,5 Kilometer oder 500 Meter. In Chinesisch wird der Kilometer selbst oft als Gongli bezeichnet. Oder metrisch li (siehe Gong). Liang eine traditionelle chinesische gewichtseinheit. Während der europäischen Kolonialzeit war der Liang gleich 116 catty. 112 Pfund, oder etwa 37,8 Gramm dies machte es das gleiche wie ein tael. Im modernen China ist der liang gleich 110 jin oder 10 qian das ist genau 50 Gramm (1.7637 Unzen). Libra oder libbra (lb) eine traditionelle Gewichtseinheit in italienischen, spanischen und portugiesischsprachigen Ländern. Die libra war die römische Einheit, aus der das englische Pfund das Symbol lb für das Pfund stammt, kommt aus dieser Einheit. Die römische Libre enthielt nur 12 Unzen (Unzen) und war etwa 0,722 englisches Pfund. Die traditionelle italienische libbra war oft von ähnlicher Größe, aber eine Vielzahl von libbras wurden in den italienischen Märkten im Laufe der Jahrhunderte verwendet. Die spanischen und portugiesischen Einheiten sind größer, im Allgemeinen im Bereich von 1.011 bis 1.016 Englisch Pfund (sehr nah an 460 Gramm). Die spanische libra entspricht 16 onzas, und die portugiesische libra entspricht 16 onccedilas. Das Wort libra wird manchmal für das Kilogramm verwendet, eine viel größere Einheit. Lüge die französische Liga. Eine Vielzahl von Lügeneinheiten wurden für die Landmessung in Frankreich verwendet, aber in der Regel waren diese Einheiten etwa 2,4-2,5 Satz Meilen in der Länge. Im 18. Jahrhundert war die juristische Einheit die Liede de poste. Definiert auf gleich 2000 toises oder 2 milles (2.4221 miles oder 3898 meter). Im metrischen Frankreich gilt die Lüge nun genau 4 Kilometer (2.4855 Meilen). Siehe Liga (oben). Auf See wurde die Lüge oft auf 125 Grad 91293 oder 2,4 Seemeilen (4445 Meter oder 2.7619 Meilen) genommen. Diese Einheit wurde allmählich durch die international anerkannten 3 Seemeilen (5556 Meter oder 3.452 Meilen) ersetzt. Im klassischen Jules Verne Roman Vingt Mille Lieues sous les Mers (Zwanzig Tausend Ligen unter dem Meer) ist die Einheit im Titel die metrische Lüge von genau 4000 Metern. Licht Sekunden eine Einheit der Distanz gleich der Distanz Licht bewegt sich in einem Vakuum in einer Sekunde. Entsprechend der offiziellen Definition des Messgerätes. Dieser Abstand ist genau 299 792 458 Meter (ungefähr 186 282.4 Meilen). Ähnlich ist eine leichte Minute 60 Licht Sekunden (ca. 17 987 547 Kilometer oder 11 176 944 Meilen) und ein Licht Tag ist 1440 Licht Minuten (ca. 25,902 Milliarden Kilometer oder 16.095 Milliarden Meilen). Light watt eine Einheit, die die relative Leistungsabgabe einer Lichtquelle misst. Die Berechnung der in Form von sichtbarem Licht gelieferten Leistung ist ziemlich kompliziert. Bei einer monochromatischen (einfrequenz) Lichtquelle wie einem Laser beträgt die Leistung in Lichtwatt 683 V (l). Wobei l die Wellenlänge des Lichts und V (l) die relative Leistung in Watt pro Lumen (Wlm) ist, die erforderlich ist, um eine konstante Helligkeitsempfindung im Auge bei der Wellenlänge l zu erzeugen. Die Werte von V (l) sind von der Internationalen Kommission für Beleuchtung (CIE) definiert. Der Maximalwert von V (l) beträgt 1683 Wlm 1,464 mWlm bei der Wellenlänge l 555 Nanometer (nm), die Wellenlänge, auf die das Auge am empfindlichsten ist. Wenn die Quelle Licht über einen Bereich von Frequenzen liefert (wie eine Glühbirne tut), ist es notwendig, das 683-fache des Integrals von V (l) zu multiplizieren mit dem Bruchteil der Energie, die bei der Wellenlänge l geliefert wird, zu berechnen. Siehe auch Candela und Talbot. Licht Jahr (ly) eine Einheit der Distanz in der Astronomie verwendet. Ein Lichtjahr ist die Distanz, die das Licht in einem Jahr durch ein Vakuum bewegt (und natürlich ist das meiste Universum in der Nähe eines Vakuums). In der offiziellen Definition der Internationalen Astronomischen Union basiert das Lichtjahr auf dem julianischen Jahr von genau 365,25 Tagen oder 31 557 600 Sekunden und der definierten Lichtgeschwindigkeit c 299.792.458 Meter pro Sekunde. So entspricht ein Lichtjahr genau 9 460 730 472 580,8 km oder 9 460 730 472 580 800 m. Ein Lichtjahr beträgt etwa 5,880 Billionen Meilen. Ligne eine traditionelle Einheit der Distanz in französischsprachigen Ländern, gleich 112 pouce (französischer Zoll) und entspricht eng der englischen Linie 91193. Die Schweizer ligne wird in der ganzen Welt von Uhrenmachern verwendet es entspricht etwa 2,256 Millimeter (0,0888 Zoll) und ist geteilt In 12 douziegravemes. In englischer Sprache ist die ligne oft mager ausgeprägt. Ligula eine römische Einheit des Flüssigkeitsvolumens gleich 148 Sextarius oder etwa 11.07 Milliliter. Das Wort bedeutet wörtlich ein Leck. Line (li oder) 91193 eine traditionelle Einheit der Distanz gleich 112 Zoll (ca. 2.1167 Millimeter). Für die Messung der Dicke der Tasten gibt es auch eine kleinere Linie gleich 140 Zoll (0,635 Millimeter). Die Linie heißt die ligne (siehe oben) auf Französisch, die linea auf spanisch, die linie auf deutsch und die liniya auf russisch. Line (li) 91293 ein ehemaliger Name für die maxwell. Die CGS-Einheit des magnetischen Flusses. Die Einheit wurde die Linie genannt, weil Magnetfelder traditionell durch Linien dargestellt wurden, die die Richtung des Feldes darstellten, war die Idee, die Stärke dieser Linien zu quantifizieren. Dies ist eine kleine Einheit, so dass Felder oft in Megalinen gemessen wurden, ist ein Megalin gleich 0,01 Weber. Linie 91393 eine traditionelle Einheit der Fläche, die in Druck und Werbung verwendet wird, gleich 114 Zoll (1,814 Millimeter) multipliziert mit der Breite der gedruckten Linie. Dieser Gebrauch ist kurz für Achatlinie. Linearer Fuß (oder Linealfuß) (ft oder lf) Begriffe, die lose verwendet werden, um eine Ein-Fuß-Länge eines langen, schmalen Objekts zu beschreiben. Der richtige Begriff ist der lineare Fuß das Wort lineal bezieht sich auf eine Linie der Abstammung, nicht auf Länge. Bretter, Pfeifen und Fechten sind typische Objekte gemessen und verkauft durch den linearen Fuß. In der bewegten Industrie ist ein linearer Fuß eine Ein-Fuß-Länge eines bewegten Transporters, in der Regel ein Volumen von etwa 72 Kubikfuß (ungefähr 2 Kubikmeter). Gelegentlich wird der Begriff linearer Fuß als alternativer Name für den Bretterfuß verwendet. Aber das ist nur angebracht, wenn das Brett 12 Zoll breit ist. Begriffe wie lineare Meter und lineare Hof werden in ähnlicher Weise verwendet, um eine Meter oder Ein-Yard-Längen anzuzeigen. Verknüpfen eine traditionelle Entfernungseinheit, die von Vermessern verwendet wird, gleich 0,01 Kette. In Großbritannien ist ein Link genau 0.66 Fuß. Oder 7,92 Zoll. Oder etwa 20,12 Zentimeter. In den USA wurden sowohl 66-Fuß - als auch 100-Fuß-Ketten für eine 100-Fuß-Kette verwendet. Der Link ist der gleiche wie der Fuß. Lippie eine traditionelle Einheit des Volumens in Schottland gleich 14 Schotten peck. Das waren etwa 2,27 Liter für Weizen, Erbsen oder Bohnen und ca. 3,04 Liter für Gerste oder Hafer. Liter oder Liter (L oder l) die gemeinsame metrische Einheit des Volumens. Der Liter wurde ursprünglich gleich genau einem kubischen Dezimeter, dh dem Volumen eines Würfels 0,1 Meter (oder 10 Zentimeter) auf einer Seite. (Diese Definition machte es auch gleich der Menge, die von einem Kilogramm Wasser besetzt wurde.) Leider waren die physischen Gegenstände, die konstruiert wurden, um den Zähler und das Kilogramm darzustellen, leicht einverstanden. Nach dem Standard-Meter und Standard-Kilogramm erwies sich der Standard-Liter als etwa 1.000 028 Kubik-Dezimeter. Diese Diskrepanz plagte das metrische System für eine lange Zeit. Im Jahr 1901 akzeptierte ein internationaler Kongress die Diskrepanz und formell definierte den Liter genau 1.000 028 dm 3. Niemand war besonders glücklich mit einer so ungünstigen Definition, und 1964 hat die CGPM die Definition aufgehoben. In der SI. Volumina sind in Kubikmeter oder Pixeln von Vielfachen davon zu messen, nicht in Liter. Allerdings stellt der SI fest, dass der Liter als besonderer Name für den kubischen Dezimeter eingesetzt werden kann. In diesem Wörterbuch wird der Liter als Name für genau 1 Kubik Dezimeter, 1000 Kubikzentimeter oder 0,001 Kubikmeter verwendet. In seiner erneuerten Gestalt als kubischer Dezimeter beträgt der Liter etwa 61.023 744 Kubikzoll. Im Vergleich zu den üblichen Volumeneinheiten ist der Liter ein wenig mehr als ein US-Flüssigquart (1.056 688 qt oder 33.814 flüssige Unzen), aber etwas weniger als ein US-Trockenquart (0.908 08 qt) oder ein britischer Imperialer Quart (0,879 89 qt Oder 35.195 flüssige Unzen). Sein Name stammt aus einer französischen Volumeneinheit, dem Litron. Die wiederum aus dem lateinischen litra stammte. Das ursprüngliche Symbol für den Liter war der Kleinbuchstabe l, aber seit 1979 wurde auch der Großbuchstabe L angenommen. Das US-Handelsministerium legt fest, dass L, zumindest von Unternehmen, verwendet werden soll, um Verwechslungen mit dem Ziffer 1 zu vermeiden. Die Einheit ist in den USA und in Großbritannien in Liter geschrieben. Es gibt viele andere Schreibweisen in verschiedenen Sprachen (siehe Rechtschreibung von metrischen Einheiten ). Liter-Atmosphäre (Lmiddotatm) eine Einheit von Arbeit oder Energie, die bei der Untersuchung von eingeschlossenen Gasen verwendet wird. Das Verhalten von Gasen wird in erster Näherung durch das ideale Gasgesetz PV nRT beschrieben. Das ideale Gasgesetz ist wirklich eine Energiegleichung, bei der die linke Seite, Druck P (in Atmosphären) mal Volumen V (in Liter) die potentielle Energie im eingeschlossenen Gas misst. Eine Liter-Atmosphäre ist gleich 101.325 Joule. 0,09605 Btu oder 74,73 Fuß Pfund. Liter pro 100 Kilometer (L100 km) ein Maß für die Kraftstoffverbrauchsrate für Fahrzeuge, die weit in Europa und anderswo verwendet werden. Obwohl diese Einheit in den Vorschriften mehrerer Länder spezifiziert ist, verstößt sie gegen SI-Regeln für Namenseinheiten. Die äquivalente SI-Einheit ist Zentiliter pro Kilometer (cLkm). In den US-Kraftstoffverbrauch wird angegeben, wie die Anzahl der Meilen, die pro U. S. Gallone des Kraftstoffs verbraucht werden, verbraucht eine Verbrauchsrate von x Liter pro 100 km entspricht genau 100 x Liter pro Kilometer oder etwa 235.215 x Meilen pro Gallone. Im britischen Commonwealth wurde der Kraftstoffverbrauch (und manchmal noch) in Meilen pro Imperial Gallone gemessen. X Liter pro 100 Kilometer ist gleich 282.481 x Meilen pro Imperial Gallone. Liter pro Mil (Lmil) ein Maß für die Kraftstoffverbrauchsrate für Fahrzeuge, die in Schweden verwendet werden. Die skandinavischen mil 4 ist gleich 10 km, also 1 Liter pro mil entspricht 10 Liter pro 100 Kilometer. Livre eine traditionelle Gewichtseinheit in französischsprachigen Ländern und in Griechenland. Das Livre entspricht dem englischen Pfund und dem spanischen Libra (siehe oben). Das livre ist in 2 marcs oder in 16 onces aufgeteilt. Das französische Livre variierte von Markt zu Markt, aber der offizielle Standard von etwa 1350 zur Einführung des metrischen Systems war der Livre poids de marc oder livre de Paris von 489,5 Gramm (1,079 englische Pfund). Im modernen Frankreich wird das Livre als eine informelle metrische Einheit gleich genau 500 Gramm oder 0,5 Kilogramm (1.1023 Pfund) verwendet. Das traditionelle griechische Livre ist auch etwa 500 Gramm. Laden Sie eine traditionelle, allgemein informelle, Volumeneinheit. In U. S. Landschaftsbau und einige Baugewerbe eine Last bedeutet oft ein Kubikhof (0,764555 m 3). In gewöhnlicher Sprache in der U. S. eine Last bedeutet oft das Volumen eines Pick-up, eine abweichende Einheit. In Großbritannien vor der heutigen Zeit war eine Last manchmal eine standardisierte Einheit, aber es variierte mit der Ware, die getragen wurde. Eine typische Größe war 40 Scheffel (ca. 1,4 Kubikmeter). Lang hundertstel der britischen hundertgewicht. Gleich 112 Pfund Lange Tonne die traditionelle britische Tonne. Gleich 2240 Pfund. Langwort eine Einheit von Informationen im Allgemeinen gleich 2 Worte 91293. viel eine traditionelle Einheit des Gewichts in deutschsprachigen Ländern, gleich etwa 12 Unzen oder 15 Gramm. Lot ist das deutsche Wort für eine Blei-Senkung, so dass die Einheit ein kleines Bleigewicht darstellt. Lovibond Farbeinheiten siehe Grad Lovibond. Lpf-Symbol für Liter pro Flush, eine Spezifikation auf Toiletten gefunden. U. S. Regierungsverordnungen erfordern jetzt Klempner, um nur niedrig-bündige Toiletten von 6.0 Lpf oder weniger zu installieren. 1 Lpf 0,264 U. S. Gallone pro Flush (gpf). Lpi Abkürzung für Zeilen pro Zoll, eine Einheit, die verwendet wird, um die Auflösung von Anzeigegeräten (z. B. Fernseh - oder Computermonitorbildschirmen) anzugeben oder den Zeilenabstand der gedruckten Seiten anzugeben. Lug 91193 ein alter englischer name für eine stange 1 (5,5 yards oder 5.0292 meter). In einigen Teilen Englands war diese Einheit eine längere Stange von 7 Yards (6.4008 Meter), eine Einheit auch die große Lasche genannt. Lug 91293 eine flache box oder kiste für produkte wie kirschen, trauben oder pfirsiche. Die Größe eines Luges variiert mit dem darin enthaltenen Artikel. Typische Laschen halten etwa 16-28 Pfund (7-13 Kilogramm) des Erzeugnisses in einem Volumen von ungefähr 13 Scheffel (ungefähr 12 Liter). Diese Einheit scheint in den Märkten im Mittleren Westen besonders häufig zu sein, und ein älterer Name für den Talbot. Die Einheit der leuchtenden (leichten) Energie gleich 1 Lumen Sekunde. Lumen (lm) die SI-Einheit zum Messen des Lichtflusses, der durch eine Lichtquelle erzeugt oder von einer Oberfläche empfangen wird. Die Intensität einer Lichtquelle wird in Candelas gemessen. Ein Lumen repräsentiert den Gesamtfluss des emittierten Lichts, gleich der Intensität in Candelas multipliziert mit dem Raumwinkel in Steradiern (1 (4183 pi) einer Kugel), in die das Licht emittiert wird. So ist der Gesamtfluss eines Ein-Candela-Lichts, wenn das Licht gleichmäßig in alle Richtungen emittiert wird, 4183 Pi-Lumen. Lumen ist ein lateinisches Wort für Licht. Lumen Stunde (lm h) eine Einheit der Lichtmenge, gleich einem Lumen des Lichtflusses für eine Stunde fortgesetzt. Die Lumen Sekunde (lm s) ist ähnlich definiert. Mondtag ein anderer Name für den Gezeitentag. Eine Zeiteinheit gleich 24 Stunden 50 Minuten in Gezeitenvorhersagen verwendet. Mondabstand (LD) der durchschnittliche Abstand zwischen der Erde und dem Mond (technisch die Länge der Halbachse der Mondbahn). Diese Einheit, gleich etwa 384 401 Kilometer oder 238 855 Meilen. Wird verwendet, um die fehlenden Abstände von Asteroiden zu messen, die in der Nähe der Erde vorübergehen. Mondmonat, Lunatnamen für das durchschnittliche Intervall zwischen zwei aufeinanderfolgenden Neumanden, eine Zeiteinheit von 29.530 59 Tagen. Siehe Monat 91193. lusec eine Einheit der Macht verwendet, um die Leistung oder Leckage von Vakuumpumpen auszudrücken. Ein Lusec repräsentiert einen Fluss von einem Liter pro Sekunde bei einem Druck von einem Mikrometer (oder Mikrometer) Quecksilber oder 1 L183181mHgs. Da u manchmal als Symbol für das Mikron verwendet wird, ist der Name der Einheit ein Akronym für Liter-Mikronsekunde. Ein Lusec entspricht 0,001 315 6 atm183cm 3 s oder 133,3 Pa183cm 3 s, was genauso wie 133,3 microwatts ist. Glanz, Glanz, Lustrum eine traditionelle Zeiteinheit gleich 5 Jahre. Im alten Rom war das Lustrum eine Zeremonie der Sühne und Reinigung für die ganze Bevölkerung der Stadt, die alle 5 Jahre nach der Vollendung der Volkszählung durchgeführt wurde. Die Verwendung von Glanz oder Lustrum als Einheit der Zeit in Englisch war ziemlich häufig in gut ausgebildeten Kreisen, solange gut ausgebildete bedeutet klassisch erzogen die Einheit hat sich so ziemlich verschwunden heute.

This means that medically released CAF members who meet certain eligibility criteria, are entitled to be considered for employment in priority over other potential candidates for a position. Eligibility Certain CAF members who release for medical reasons have a right to appointment in priority to all persons, other than those referred to in section 40 and subsections 41(1) to (4) of the PSEA (referred to as the Act ), to any position in the public service for which the Commission is satisfied that the person meets the essential qualifications referred to in Paragraph 30(2)(a) of the Act .

The CF RTW program provides a framework for enhanced communication between the member, the medical authorities and the Chain of Command, while respecting privacy expectations. The CF RTW program is a rehabilitation initiative that helps convalescing members ease back into the workplace by adapting schedules and duties to their level of ability. The more supportive the work environment is, the greater the potential for success. Eligibility The CF RTW Program applies to members of the Regular Force and the Primary Reserve. Extensive research demonstrates that the probability of returning to work decreases significantly with the length of time away from work. Ill and injured individuals who are away for more than six months are 50 less likely to return to any type of work, when compared to individuals who are returned to work earlier in some capacity or another. The CF RTW program facilitates the restoration of the physical and mental health of injured or ill CAF members by helping them reintegrate into the workplace as soon as medically possible. The ultimate goal is to return members to their regular duties as soon as possible via a transitional employment period of duties modified in duration andor scope. Participation Any member who suffers an injury or contracts an illness that temporarily or permanently limits hisher ability to perform duties at their designated place of employment should participate in the CF RTW Program. The actual CF RTW process may vary from unit to unit. The RTW Program has many benefits for the ill or injured member. Quick intervention through a planned and gradual reintegration into the workplace gives the member the ability to actively participate in hisher rehabilitation. It also facilitates the responsibility for treatment. A progressive RTW plan provides meaningful work in a supportive environment and a social support network. The member will gain motivation through self-satisfaction, trust, and confidence.

Posting to Joint Personnel Support Unit (JPSU) and the Service Personnel Holding List (SPHL) References CANFORGEN 11411, Defence Administrative Orders and Directives (DAOD) 5060-0 A posting to the JPSU provides an ill or injured Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) member with the opportunity to focus on recovery and rehabilitation, with the primary aim of returning to duty. The posting of ill and injured members to the JPSU also allows Commanding Officers to focus on unit operational imperatives, with a secondary possibility that a vacant position may be filled via the posting process by the ill or injured members career manager. Eligibility Ill and injured Regular Force members are eligible for posting to the JPSU. Under certain conditions, Reserve Force members may be eligible for posting to the JPSU. Posting to the JPSU is based on a prognosis of restricted employment due to medical reasons for a period of six months or more. A posting to the JPSU must be recommended by the unit Commanding Officer, and supported by the BaseWing Surgeon or a delegated senior medical officer. The approving authority for posting Regular Force personnel to the JPSU is Director of Military Careers and it is the appropriate Command Headquarters (HQ) for Reserve Force personnel. CANFORGEN 11411 provides further detail on posting to the JPSU. With the stand-up of the JPSU, the purpose of the SPHL has changed significantly. Prior to 2008, the SPHL was simply an administrative means by which Commanding Officers (COs) of Regular Force units could maintain operational effectiveness within their units by requesting the posting of replacement personnel for positions which were deemed essential. With the stand-up of the JPSU, the focus has been placed on determining how to best provide support for an injured or ill CAF member. The possibility of a replacement has become a secondary consideration. All CAF members who were previously placed on the SPHL are now posted to the JPSU. Posting to JPSU A CAF member posted to the JPSU is under command and control of the JPSU. The member is assigned to the Support Platoon of the nearest Integrated Personnel Support Centre (IPSC). The Support Platoon will utilize its resources to ensure that the member is provided with every reasonable opportunity to return to active duty. Admittedly, a return to duty may not be possible for everyone, and for those CAF personnel who will eventually be medically released, the efforts of the IPSC team will shift to providing a smooth transition upon release. The daily routine for ill and injured CAF members posted to the JPSU will be guided by the medical employment limitations (MELs) documented by CAF Health Services. Within the guidelines of the MELs, personnel posted to the JPSU will be supported in their treatment and recovery by the leadership of the IPSC Support Platoon, and will be expected to participate in return to work (RTW) and other treatment programs to enhance their return to active duty or to ensure a smooth transition. Administration CAF members posted to the JPSU are subject to all administrative and disciplinary policies, including leave and Performance Evaluation Reports (PERs). They are considered on duty unless in hospital, on sick leave or other authorized leave. In compliance with the medical employment limitations, members posted to the JPSU are required to report for duty, on a full or part-time basis, based on the IPSC Support Platoons established schedule of working hours, as well as the approved modified work plan developed in consultation with the approved MELs. For further information on the JPSU, please contact: the nearest IPSC, or JPSU HQ toll free at 1-800-883-6094 or 613-995-1457.

For CAF members in the substantive rank of Colonel and above, and Lieutenant - Colonel of the legal branch and above, the accumulation of years of eligible service ended on 1 Oct 2011, and for all other CAF members, with the exception of military judges, the accumulation of years of eligible service ended on 1 Mar 2012. The accumulation of years of eligible service continues for members who are released for medical reasons (release Items 3(a) and 3(b) under QRampO 15.01), and released involuntarily (release Items 5(b), 5(d), 5(e), or 5(c) where the member has not reached retirement age under Queens Regulations and Orders (QRampO) Chapter 15 but has completed the period of obligatory service because of a change in classification, trade specifications, or in the establishment requirements of the CF), or who is released by reason of death. In the event of death, Severance Pay is payable to the members service estate. During the release process, the members Release section completes the CFSP calculation form and advises the member of hisher entitlement. Subsequently, the Release section forwards all release documentation to Director Military Careers Administration (DMCA) for audit of the members file. Once the audit has been completed, DMCA advises Director Military Pay and Allowances Released Personnel Pay Office (DMPAP RPPO) of the members entitlement for payment. This benefit is administered by DMCA and is paid by the DMPAP RPPO at National Defence Headquarters (NDHQ). For additional information, call toll free 1-800-773-7705. Medical Treatment and Expenses Queens Regulations and Orders (QRampO) Chapter 34.07, Entitlement to Medical Care This section describes the entitlement to medical treatment and coverage of medical expenses for Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) members dependent upon their terms of service. Eligibility Members of the Regular Force, Reserve Force on Class C Service and extended Class BService are eligible for comprehensive medical care at public expense, while so employed. They are not eligible to care for the treatment of chronic non-service related conditions. Reserve Force Members with Medical Conditions Attributed to Service ndash The extent of medical care provided andor paid for by the Canadian Forces Health Services (CFHS) to Reserve Force members who develop medical conditions as a result of their service is briefly described below. Eligible Reserve members, while still employed in the CAF, are entitled to medical care at public expense to treat any condition that is attributable to service. Specifically, after the employment period has been completed, a Commander of a command may, upon recommendation of the attending physician, authorize the extension of the period of service in order to provide medical care at public expense to a Reserve member whose need for medical care is attributed to the performance of duty. Where there are reasonable grounds to believe that the condition is attributable to military service, and unless the Reserve member has been released from the CAF, the CFHS should continue to provide medical care to the Reserve member, as long as the officer commanding a command approves the extension of the period of service, even if relatedness to service has yet to be conclusively determined. To ensure continuity of care, the treatment may be jointly sharedcoordinated by the BaseWing Surgeon and a civilian family doctor. BaseWing Surgeons must oversee medical care provided at public expense. Medical care provided at public expense to Reserve members must conform to CFHS standards, comparable to the medical care provided to Regular Force members. Release ndash A member of the CAF is not entitled to medical care at CF expense beyond the effective date of release. Medical treatment and expenses are entitlements under the responsibility of the Commander CF Health Services Group. The point of contact is the closest military Health Services Centre. Planning Ahead: Wills and Estate Planning References National Defence Act (NDA) - Section 42, Queens Regulations and Orders (QRampO) Chapter 25, Defence Administrative Orders and Directives (DAOD) 7011-0, 7011-1, 7012-0, and 7012-1 Estate planning is the whole process of arranging your personal affairs in contemplation of your death or mentalphysical incapacity. Proper estate planning will ensure that your family members have less to worry about in these circumstances. A well laid-out estate plan ensures that your affairs are looked after according to your wishes and that your family is looked after. For example, you will have to consider whether you have enough money to cover expenses, such as the cost of your funeral and probate fees, should it be necessary to have your Will verified through the court system. Other expenses such as any outstanding personal loans, income tax, bills, rent or mortgage payments will also have to be paid. If you are supporting a family member, planning for the payment of these expenses as well as your familys general living expenses, such as groceries, is critical. Proper estate planning includes preparing a will and an affidavit of execution, tax planning, completing a power of attorney (separate versions for financial affairsproperty management and personal care, when you are out of country or otherwise unable to attend to your own affairs), and purchasing life insurance. Your Will ndash Everyone should have a Will. Dying intestate (without a valid Will) means that you have no say in how your Estate is administered and how your assets are distributed. Therefore, if you have specific ideas regarding how you want your estate settled and to whom you want, your assets distributed, put them in writing. A properly executed Will is a legal document that reflects your wishes for the distribution of your estate. While you can draft a Will on your own, you should seek legal advice from a lawyernotary because there are certain formal legal requirements that must be followed when completing a Will. If these requirements are not followed, the Will may be invalid. A lawyernotary who specializes in estate planning will be able to provide you with additional advice relative to your estate planning. Before seeing a lawyernotary, prepare an inventory of your assets and try to calculate their value. Make sure that you take into account any outstanding mortgage on your property. Also, make a list of your Registered Retirement Savings Plans (RRSPs) and any life insurance policies you may have, and find out if you do not know whom you have designated as your beneficiary on these policies. Take your time when preparing your Will. It is one of the most important documents you will sign. In addition, you should review your Will periodically as personal circumstances change. You may need to make a new Will if you experience a change in marital status or upon the birth or adoption of a child(ren). A Will made ten, five or even two years ago may not reflect your present wishes or financial situation. You will need to appoint an executor and an alternate executor. The executor is the person designated by the Will to administer your estate in accordance with your Will. The executor will carry out your wishes and take care of tasks such as filing tax returns, protecting your property and paying expenses. You should discuss with your lawyernotary who should be your executor and how much heshe will be paid for carrying out that duty. Some people choose an individual such as a spouse, other family members or a close friend. Other people choose a trust company because they have expertise and are impartial when carrying out duties of an executor, which may minimize taxes. Living Will ndash The expression living will is sometimes used to refer to a document in which you stipulate your desire about treatments if you become ill or injured and cant communicate your wishes. It is quite common, for instance, to write a living will saying that you do not want to be kept alive on artificial life supports if there is no hope of recovery. The term advance directive is also frequently used to refer to such a document. The expression proxy directive is also utilized to describe a document that combines a Power of Attorney and a living will. Tax planning ndash Tax planning is an important part of estate planning. There are several ways to reduce estate taxes, such as charitable donations or RRSPs to spouses or dependent children. It is a complex area, so discuss it with your financial advisor, lawyernotary or accountant. Powers of attorney ndash Besides your Will, you should discuss preparing a power of attorney with your lawyernotary. This is a legal document, which you sign, and have witnessed authorizing a person or persons to make decisions for you should you ever become incapable of making these decisions for yourself. There are two kinds of powers of attorney: one for managing financial affairs or property, and another for personal care. The latter type allows you to organize your affairs so that someone you trust will have authority to decide about your health care, nutrition, shelter, clothing, hygiene and safety if you cannot. Life insurance ndash Amongst other things, life insurance can help provide your family with replacement income after your death, as well as cover your final expenses and debts you may have. Unlike the proceeds of your RRIF, which are transferred to your estate and taxed, the proceeds of your life insurance policy are tax-free. To be insurable, however, you must be healthy. Keep in mind that your premiums will vary depending on such factors as your health, age and coverage amount. There are different types of life insurance, including term insurance, permanent insurance and universal life. Consult a financial advisor for more information and to help you do a need analysis. It is a good idea to comparison-shop and find the product that best suits your needs and your budget. Tips Make sure that your financial affairs are in order and your records are up-to-date at all times Make sure your executor knows where to find your records Canada Pension Plan (CPP)Quebec Pension Plan (QPP) pays out a lump sum death benefit to your surviving spouse or estate and There are several ways you can minimize your estate costs, such as establishing a spousal trust and designating beneficiaries on your RRSPs, Registered Retirement Income Funds (RRIFs) and life insurance policies. Consult a financial advisor to help you consider what is right for you. The Canadian Forces (CF) Service Will ndash The CAF strongly urges every member to make a Will on enrolment and, review, update their Will upon the birth or adoption of a child(ren) and to make a new Will upon any change in marital status (see DAOD 7012-0). However, a Will (referred to as the service will) may be made at any time during service and placed in safekeeping with the CAF or elsewhere. The CAF provides a simple Will Form, which is a very basic Will, appropriate primarily for single CAF members. A lawyernotary may be consulted to make a Will with specific provisions, including but not limited to trusts and guardianship for children and additional bequeaths. A private Will may be deposited with the CAF for safekeeping. Note the following reminders: Ratify or replace any Will made before reaching the age of majority (this age varies between provinces and territories) Update a Will upon the birth or adoption of a child(ren) Make a new Will upon marrying, unless the existing Will was made in contemplation of the marriage and states this clearly and Make a new Will upon divorce. If a Will has been deposited with the CAF for safekeeping, the member is entitled to receive it or to have it forwarded to hisher address upon release. It is important to complete any necessary documentation in this regard. Canadian Forces Member Assistance Program (CFMAP) The CFMAP is a partnership between the Department of National Defence (DND) and Health Canadas Emergency Preparedness and Occupational Health Directorate Employee Assistance Services (EAS). The CFMAP offers confidential, voluntary, short term counselling to assist with resolving many of todays stresses at home and in the work place. The CFMAP should not be regarded as treatment for mental illness or addictions. Eligibility Regular Force ndash Regular Force members and their immediate family members, spouse, partner and dependant children of the member, have direct access to the CFMAP telephone counselling service 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Reserve Force ndash Certain members of the Reserve component, Cadet Instructor Cadre (CIC), Cadets, Canadian Rangers and certain family members of the preceding groups may also have access. In order for Reserve Force members and their family members to receive full assistance under this program, the situation or issue for which assistance is sought must be directly linked to service in the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF). Notwithstanding this condition, the individuals from any of these groups may contact CFMAP and receive an initial assessment followed by an appropriate referral. Parents and Siblings ndash Parents and siblings of CAF Regular and Reserve Force members who are injured or who die while in service have direct access to the CFMAP telephone counselling service 24 hours a day, seven days a week. There are limitations that apply to assistance provided under CFMAP. Sessions will normally consist of a face-to-face meeting, but, if circumstances dictate, the meeting between the CAF member or family member and the counsellor may be conducted by telephone. Where service beyond the scope of this program is required, CAF members, and where applicable their families with the members consent, may be referred to CF Health Services. However, should they prefer to use civilian services, all costs will be borne by the CAF member. Entitled individuals residing in Canada and the USA can access this program through the toll free telephone number 1-800-268-7708 (TDD 1-800-567-5803). Entitled individuals residing in other countries must dial the International Access Code of the country from which they are calling and then 800-268-7708. This line is staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year by a fully bilingual, trained counsellor. The role of the telephone counsellor is to refer the client to a counsellor in private practice for face-to-face counselling, and if the client is in crisis, to provide counselling over the phone. Contact will be made with the client within 48 hours and an appointment will take place within five days or sooner in crisis situations.

The case management relationship is an organized and collaborative problem solving process that enables those who need it to access services and supports to optimize their level of independence and quality of life. In the event of serious injury or death, VAC will work closely with the CAF Designated Assistant andor the CAF Case Manager to provide the necessary supports. VAC Pastoral Outreach Program Similar to the pastoral care Military Chaplains provide to those who are serving in uniform, this program assists retired CAF personnel and their immediate family, when a pastoral need arises. This service is not intended to replace the ministry of civilian parish clergy. When, however, an individual is without the immediate ministry of a member of the clergy, this program may provide assistance. While it is primarily designed for situations when former members are dealing with end of life issues (i. e. dying, death, bereavement, etc.) it is not necessarily restricted to this area alone. An important feature of the program is its capacity to provide a swift response with a very high quality of pastoral care. The clergy are carefully selected and specifically mandated for this ministry. Many of them are retired CAF Padres, or Royal Canadian Legion Reserve Chaplains, who have personal familiarity with the military way of life. Also available are Emergency Medical Services chaplains, Police and Firefighter chaplains. Clergy are paid a standard honorarium for their services and are also reimbursed for reasonable expenses incurred. Former CAF members, both Regular and Reserve Force and their immediate family members may request services by calling 1-800-504-4156.

Eligibility A veteran or family member may contact a Legion Service Officer directly to request assistance. Assistance for Veterans Affairs Canada Applicants ndash The Legion Command Service Officer can provide assistance from the first application with Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) through to providing assistance and representation at Appeal with the Veterans Review and Appeal Board (VRAB). Approximately 10 of all first applications adjudicated by VAC have been staffed by a Legion Command Service Officer while Legion Command Service Officers present approximately 400 Reviews and Appeals to the VRAB annually.

BCYukon Command has dedicated housing for homeless veterans such as Cockrell House in Victoria and Veterans Manor in Vancouvers east side. Ontario Command implemented Operation Leave the Streets Behind program to assist homeless and at risk veterans. This program has helped more than 50 veterans just in the last year.

United Nations (UN) Military - Death and Disability Compensation The UN has a Death and Disability Compensation program for members on UN missions. However, it makes a key distinction between medical claims for United Nations Military Observers (UNMOs), and those for contingent members, including staff officers. Eligibility Regular Force and Reserve Force Class C members may be entitled to UN Military Death and Disability Compensation. For UNMOs, the member can process claims directly to the Permanent Mission of Canada to the United Nations (address below). For contingent members, they are treated differently with regard to a claim. The member cannot make an application as it is left to the discretion of the Government of Canada (GoC) to submit a claim on behalf of the member. It is to be noted, under current legislation, a claim submitted to the UN, be it by a member under the UNMOs status or the GoC on behalf of a member, the payment will be used as an offset against any payment for a similar claim to Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC). To this date the GoC has not made any representation to the UN on behalf of any members of a formed UnitContingent. As such for disabilities sustained by Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) members while deployed to the UN as part of a formed UnitContingent (including staff officers), a claim should be submitted to VAC under the auspice of the Disability Award Program in accordance with the New Veterans Charter (see Section 1 - veterans. gc. ca ). UNMO Claims ndash Medical claims must be submitted within four months of the injury or death of an UNMO, or onset of the illness. In exceptional circumstances, the Secretary-General may accept for consideration a claim made at a later date. It is important to note that the documentation accompanying the claim will be critical in demonstrating its validity and ensuring its approval in a reasonably timely manner. Therefore, either a combination of, or at least one of the following, should be provided: UN accident report UN Board of Inquiry UN medical documentation UN NOTICAS (Notification of Casualty), or Similar type of document or report. Claims must be sent to the Canadian Mission at the address provided below. Subsequent correspondence and enquiries should also be directed to the Canadian Mission, either by letter, facsimile 212-848-1196, or telephone 212-848-1157. It is stressed that the UN medical claims process is particularly slow. Claims will usually take years to resolve. In addition, the UN has yet to establish a policy to address Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) claims. As a result, PTSD claims at this time may be submitted, however they will not be adjudicated for an indefinite period. PTSD claims should nevertheless be processed in order to ensure they are in the possession of the UN. UNMO Claims should be forwarded by mail to the following address: Deputy Military Adviser Permanent Mission of Canada to the United Nations One Dag Hammarskjoumlld Plaza 885 Second Avenue, 14th Floor New York, NY 10017 USA SISIP Financial Services (SISIP FS) As a division of the Canadian Armed Forces Personnel and Family Support Services (CFPFSS) since 1969, SISIP FS provides tailored and unbiased financial solutions, suited to meet the needs of serving and former members of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) community.
