Unit Control Block
In IBM mainframe operating systems OS/360 and its successors, a Unit Control Block (UCB) is a memory structure, or a ''control block'', that describes any single input/output peripheral device (''unit''), or an ''exposure'' (alias), to the operating system. Certain data within the UCB also instructs the Input/Output Supervisor (IOS) to use certain closed subroutines in addition to normal IOS processing for additional physical device control. Some other operating systems have similar structures. Overview During initial program load (IPL) of current MVS systems, the Nucleus Initialization Program (NIP) reads necessary information from the I/O Definition File (IODF) and uses it to build the UCBs. The UCBs are stored in system-owned memory, in the Extended System Queue Area (ESQA). After IPL completes, UCBs are owned by Input/Output Support. Some of the data stored in the UCB are: device type (e.g. disk, tape, printer, terminal), address of the device (such as ''1002''), subcha ...

Union Of Burkinabé Communists
Union of Burkinabè Communists (in French: ''Union des Communistes Burkinabè'') was a communist party in Burkina Faso. UCB was founded in August 1984 by the Group for the Unity of Marxists–Leninists (''Groupe pour l'Unité des Marxistes-Léninistes'', GUML, founded in 1983), the Marxist–Leninist Group (''Groupe Marxiste-Léniniste'', founded in 1979 through a split in the Voltaic Revolutionary Communist Party) and one other group. In 1986 it signed the appeal of four organizations for revolutionary unity and support to the revolutionary government of Thomas Sankara. In 1987 Sankara tried to marginalize the UCB. This was one of the factors that provoked the 1987 coup d'état, as the UCB was close to the coup leader Blaise Compaoré. Together with smaller groups, the UCB founded the Organization for Popular Democracy – Labour Movement The Organization for Popular Democracy – Labour Movement () was the ruling political party in Burkina Faso from 1989 to 1996.

Bilirubin
Bilirubin (BR) (adopted from German, originally bili—bile—plus ruber—red—from Latin) is a red-orange compound that occurs in the normcomponent of the straw-yellow color in urine. Another breakdown product, stercobilin, causes the brown color of feces. Although bilirubin is usually found in animals rather than plants, at least one plant species, '' Strelitzia nicolai'', is known to contain the pigment. Structure Bilirubin consists of an open-chain tetrapyrrole. It is formed by oxidative cleavage of a porphyrin in heme, which affords biliverdin. Biliverdin is reduced to bilirubin. After conjugation with glucuronic acid, bilirubin is water-soluble and can be excreted. Bilirubin is structurally similar to the pigment phycobilin used by certain algae to capture light energy, and to the pigment phytochrome used by plants to sense light. All of these contain an open chain of four pyrrolic rings. Like these other pigments, some of the double-bonds in bilirubin isomer ...
