cut a tape vi.   To write a software or document distribution on    magnetic tape for shipment.   Has nothing to do with physically    cutting the medium!   Early versions of this lexicon claimed that one    never analogously speaks of `cutting a disk', but this has since    been reported as live usage.   Related slang usages are mainstream    business's `cut a check', the recording industry's `cut a record',    and the military's `cut an order'.          All of these usages reflect physical processes in obsolete    recording and duplication technologies.   The first stage in    manufacturing an old-style vinyl record involved cutting grooves in    a stamping die with a precision lathe.   More mundanely, the dominant    technology for mass duplication of paper documents in    pre-photocopying days involved "cutting a stencil", punching away    portions of the wax overlay on a silk screen.   More directly, paper    tape with holes punched in it was an important early storage medium.

Consequently,    the economy is highly sensitive to fluctuations in international    prices for coffee and cocoa and to weather conditions. Despite    attempts by the government to diversify, the economy is still largely    dependent on agriculture and related industries. After several years    of lagging performance, the Ivorian economy began a comeback in 1994,    due to improved prices for cocoa and coffee, growth in non-traditional    primary exports such as pineapples and rubber, trade and banking    liberalization, offshore oil and gas discoveries, and generous    external financing and debt rescheduling by multilateral lenders and    France. The 50% devaluation in January 1994 caused a one time jump in    the inflation rate. Government adherence to a renewed structural    adjustment program has led to a budget surplus for the first time in    several years, a smaller personnel budget, and an increase in public    investment. While real growth in 1994 was only 1.5%, the IMF and World    Bank expect it will surpass 6% in 1995.       National product: GDP - purchasing power parity - $20.5 billion (1994    est.)       National product real growth rate: 1.5% (1994 est.)       National product per capita: $1,430 (1994 est.)       Inflation rate (consumer prices): NA%       Unemployment rate: 14% (1985)       Budget:    revenues: $1.9 billion    expenditures: $3.4 billion, including capital expenditures of $408    million (1993)       Exports: $2.7 billion (f.o.b., 1993)    commodities: cocoa 30%, coffee 20%, tropical woods 11%, petroleum,    cotton, bananas, pineapples, palm oil, cotton    partners: France, Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Burkina, US, Belgium,    UK (1992)       Imports: $1.6 billion (f.o.b., 1993)    commodities: food, capital goods, consumer goods, fuel    partners: France, Nigeria, Japan, Netherlands, US (1992)       External debt: $17.3 billion (1993 est.)       Industrial production: growth rate 0% (1993 est.); accounts for 20% of    GDP, including petroleum       Electricity:    capacity: 1,170,000 kW    production: 1.8 billion kWh    consumption per capita: 123 kWh (1993)       Industries: foodstuffs, wood processing, oil refining, automobile    assembly, textiles, fertilizer, beverages       Agriculture: most important sector, contributing one-third to GDP and    80% to exports; cash crops include coffee, cocoa beans, timber,    bananas, palm kernels, rubber; food crops - corn, rice, manioc, sweet    potatoes; not self-sufficient in bread grain and dairy products       Illicit drugs: illicit producer of cannabis; mostly for local    consumption; some international drug trade; transshipment point for    Southwest and Southeast Asian heroin to Europe and occasionally to the    US       Economic aid:    recipient: US commitments, including Ex-Im (FY70-89), $356 million;    Western (non-US) countries, ODA and OOF bilateral commitments    (1970-88), $5.2 billion       Currency: 1 CFA franc (CFAF) = 100 centimes       Exchange rates: Communaute Financiere Africaine francs (CFAF) per US$1    - 529.43 (January 1995), 555.20 (1994), 283.16 (1993), 264.69 (1992),    282.11 (1991), 272.26 (1990)    note: beginning 12 January 1994, the CFA franc was devalued to CFAF    100 per French franc from CFAF 50 at which it had been fixed since    1948       Fiscal year: calendar year       Cote D'ivoire:Transportation       Railroads:    total: 660 km (25 km double track)    narrow gauge: 660 km 1.000-meter gauge       Highways:    total: 46,600 km    paved: 3,600 km    unpaved: gravel, crushed stone, improved earth 32,000 km; unimproved    earth 11,000 km       Inland waterways: 980 km navigable rivers, canals, and numerous    coastal lagoons       Ports: Abidjan, Aboisso, Dabou, San-Pedro       Merchant marine:    total: 5 ships (1,000 GRT or over) totaling 49,671 GRT/69,216 DWT    ships by type: chemical tanker 1, container 2, oil tanker 1,    roll-on/roll-off cargo 1       Airports:    total: 40    with paved runways over 3,047 m: 1    with paved runways 2,438 to 3,047 m: 2    with paved runways 1,524 to 2,437 m: 4    with paved runways under 914 m: 11    with unpaved runways 1,524 to 2,438 m: 6    with unpaved runways 914 to 1,523 m: 16       Cote D'ivoire:Communications       Telephone system: 87,700 telephones; well-developed by African    standards but operating well below capacity; consists of open-wire    lines and radio relay microwave links    local: NA    intercity: NA microwave radio relay    international: 2 INTELSAT (1 Atlantic Ocean and 1 Indian Ocean) earth    stations; 2 coaxial submarine cables       Radio:    broadcast stations: AM 71, FM 0, shortwave 13    radios: NA       Television:    broadcast stations: 18    televisions: NA       Cote D'ivoire:Defense Forces       Branches: Army, Navy, Air Force, paramilitary Gendarmerie,    Presidential Guard, Military Fire Group       Manpower availability: males age 15-49 3,318,314; males fit for    military service 1,724,020; males reach military age (18) annually    154,120 (1995 est.)       Defense expenditures: exchange rate conversion - $140 million, 1.4% of    GDP (1993)
