Testimony issued by the General Accounting Office with an abstract that begins "By the end of 2002, more than 40 million people worldwide were living with human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS), with 5 million newly infected that year. HIV/AIDS, along with tuberculosis (TB) and malaria, causes nearly 6 million deaths per year and untold human suffering. Established in January 2002, the Global Fund (the Fund) aims to rapidly disburse grants to augment existing spending on the prevention and treatment of these three diseases while maintaining sufficient oversight of financial transactions and program effectiveness. As of April 1, 2003, the United States had pledged $1.65 billion to the Fund and is expected to remain its single largest donor. In this study, GAO was asked to assess (1) the Fund's progress in developing governance structures; (2) the systems that the Fund has developed for ensuring financial accountability, monitoring and evaluating grant projects, and procuring goods and services; (3) the Fund's efforts to raise money; and (4) its grant-making process. In responding to our draft report, the Fund, the Department of Health and Human Services, the Department of State, and the U.S. Agency for International Development agreed with our findings."

The article proposes a stylistic analysis of the methods of linguistic expression of the subjectivation of an artistic narration in the presence of the image of the narrator expressed in the first person. The literary text is studied from the standpoint of text stylistics, which considers such categories of text as the image of the author, the image of the narrator, the word row, etc. The proposed approach to the study of the text of a work of art makes it possible to pay attention to the organization of the text as a whole, its verbal composition, how linguistic units coexist and interact within the word range. The author made an attempt on the example of the analysis of the image of the narrator in the novel by I.S. Shmelev's "The Year of Our Lord" to show how "polyphony" is created, that is, the presence in the narration from the first person of different points of view, from the positions of which the events in the novel are described. Such verbal methods of subjectification as direct speech, indirect speech and internal monologue, helping to shift the point of view in the subjective narrative from one subject to another. The author's field of vision also includes graphic techniques that support the reflection of "foreign" points of view in the artistic text. In the article, special attention is paid to the analysis of improperly direct speech, since it is precisely this design of "alien" speech that implements the author's task to maximally erase the boundaries between the "faces" of the narrator, the child-hero of the events and other participants in these events, thereby "plunging" the reader into the consciousness narrator. It is also of interest how this helps to realize a reliable image of a child narrator at the linguistic level.
The study carried out is of theoretical importance, since it considers the categories studied by the style of the text, which have not yet been fully developed.

Over the past two decades, information and information technology (IT) have evolved significantly and have become increasingly important to our national security. Many different journals have described this evolution. The purpose of this study is to examine the evolution of information and IT through the articles of two defense journals over a sixteen-year period. It provides a review of the article subject matter, the changes in the subject matter, the contributing authors and their institutions, and predictions for the next five years.
