What is plagiarism, and why are you so good at detecting it?
Frequently Asked QuestionsJust as all of my syllabi say: "Plagiarism is defined as the deliberate use of another's work and claiming it as one's own.

Can a trained mine-detecting dog work with any deminer?
RONCO: Humanitarian Land Mine ClearanceWhen a fully trained mine-detecting dog is deployed, it must initially work with the handler to whom it "bonded" during the training. A handler switch can be made later, but only after the dog is proven. If a change is made, at least two weeks of proficiency training are needed for the new handler and dog in order to create a new "bond." Dutch language commands are the only ones used with the Belgian Malinois and German Shepherds fielded by RONCO/Global.

In theory yes, but rarely in practice. Accurate mine location maps are rarely available and must be considered suspect in any event.
