4, The full form of UPA is United States Professional Poolplayers Association.

In 1979, after several years on the professional circuit and with numerous titles under his belt, Terry “Texas Terry” Bell developed an idea for a centrally controlled nationwide amateur pool organization. He realized how popular billiards was becoming and knew that no organized system for recreational league play existed. So, amid much skepticism among professional players, Bell joined forces with Larry “The Iceman” Hubbart, who was also competing on the professional circuit. Together they founded the American Poolplayers Association, Inc. (APA) in 1981 to act as the sanctioning body of the League. Previously known as the American Pool League, Busch Pool League, Bud Light Pool League and the Camel Pool League, the APA now sanctions and oversees the APA 8-Ball League and APA 9-Ball League in the United States, the Canadian Poolplayers Association in Canada and the Japanese Poolplayers Association in Japan.

Based on their knowledge of the game, Bell and Hubbart developed a unique handicap system, The Equalizer®, to level the playing field in the League. The Equalizer® utilizes a formula that measures a scoring ability by counting the number of turns it takes a player to win a game. The result is a handicap that determines the number of games a player must win to capture a match. After the handicap system was developed, the APA was formed as the sanctioning body of the League. In October 2010, Bell and Hubbart were inducted into the Billiard Congress of America Hall of Fame for Meritorious Service!

The UPA promotes excellence in the pool community by integrating professional rules, instruction, amateur league play and professional tournaments to enhance the skills of players at all levels and to support the ascension of amateur players to the professional level.

5, The full form of UPA is Uniform Partnership Act.

The Uniform Partnership Act (UPA), which includes revisions that are sometimes called the Revised Uniform Partnership Act (RUPA), is a uniform act (similar to a model statute), proposed by the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws (“NCCUSL”) for the governance of business partnerships by U.S. States. Several versions of UPA have been promulgated by the NCCUSL, the earliest having been put forth in 1914, and the most recent in 1997.

7, The full form of UPA is Ultra Port Architecture.

The Ultra Port Architecture (UPA) bus was developed by Sun Microsystems as a high-speed graphics card to CPU interconnect, beginning with the Ultra 1 workstation in 1995.

The Ultra Port Architecture (UPA) bus was developed by Sun Microsystems as a high-speed graphics card to CPU interconnect, beginning with the Ultra 1 workstation in 1995.

Designing high-performance systems is a complex balancing act. As faster
components are implemented in designs, performance bottlenecks inevitably
shift to other areas of the system. For example, a faster processor may cause a
bottleneck in performance to shift from the CPU to the system bus if the bus
can’t feed data to the processor fast enough. A wider bus could cause the
bottleneck to shift back again to the processor, or perhaps to some other part of
the system. The challenge for system architects is to carefully balance system
performance, and to keep costs within the product’s targeted goals.
In 1994, engineers at Sun Microsystems faced these challenges in designing a
new family of desktop workstations. These new systems — the Ultra family
of workstations — were designed to use the new high-speed UltraSPARC
family of processors. At that time, there was no standardized system or
graphics bus technology with adequate bandwidth and scalability to meet
Sun’s demanding performance requirements. For this reason, Sun developed
the Ultra Port Architecture (UPA) interconnect bus architecture, which was first
introduced at the heart of the Ultra 1 workstation in 1995.
The UPA design has proven to be a superior interconnect architecture, even
when compared to other bus technologies that have since emerged in the
market. The purpose of this paper is to describe the UPA interconnect, and in
particular, its functionality as a graphics bus. In addition, this paper will
compare the UPA interconnect with other graphics bus technologies, and
discuss how UPA helps to accelerate application performance.

13, The full form of UPA is Uganda People’s Army.

The Iteso people of Soroti and Kumi districts are separated from Kitgum District by a narrow corridor through Lango and Karamojong areas. The conflict had existed in varying intensities and intermittency from as far back as the 1950’s. The main players were: Karamonjog cattle rustlers; Uganda People’s Army (UPA) who staged a rebellion against the government from 1985 to 1992; Alice Lakwena’s spiritual/political rebellion of 1987-1988; Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) incursions in the Teso sub-region in 2002, 2004 and 2006; and government armed forces who participated in each of the conflicts by trying to re-establish normalcy and liberate civilians. By January 2010, about 200,000 people out of about 2 million who had been displaced in northern Uganda and the Teso sub-region were still living in camps

The Iteso conducted their own revolt against the Museveni government between 1987 (following major cattle raids) and 1992, allegedly with training and military assistance from Kenya. The predominantly Iteso Uganda People’s Army (UPA) was established principally by members of the former UNLA special forces. In that both were comprised principally of professional soldiers, the UPA was similar to the Acholi UPDA of the 1986-1988 period. Both Museveni’s NRA and the UPA in the Iteso conflict were known for their rough tactics with civilians. A July 1989 incident in which 69 prisoners in NRA custody were apparently purposely suffocated in a rail car at Okungulo railway station in Mukura Sub-County, Kumi District, is well-known throughout Uganda.

According to one authoritative source, even during the early 1990s, when both the Acholi and the Iteso were battling the NRA, LRA forces, during incursions in Soroti, inflicted atrocities on Iteso civilians. The LRA’s human rights conduct has worsened over the years, leaving it little appeal in this area. The conflict in Soroti and Kumi with the Museveni government was concluded in 1992 through the efforts of the Teso Commission, first formed in 1990.

It appears that the conflict resolution achieved in the Iteso region in 1992 has been durable. The majority of the Iteso electorate voted for President Museveni in the 1996 elections.

A militia group called “Arrow” was organized by the government and is fighting rebels together with the Uganda People’s Defence Forces (UDPF) (2002-2004). Various reports refer to Arrow, also known as “Arrow Boys”, (Africa Confidential 26 Sept. 2003, 3; Africa Research Bulletin 30 Sept. 2003, 15463), as a militia group recruited and trained by the Ugandan government to support the Uganda People’s Defence Forces (UPDF) in their fight against the Lord’ Resistance Army (LRA) (Africa Confidential 26 Sept. 2003, 3; ACT 26 Aug. 2003; IRIN 28 Jan. 2004).

Led by Mosa Echuaru and Sam Otai, both former members of the rebel Uganda People’s Army, the Arrow group was initiated in June 2003 in response to LRA extended attacks in northern regions (ACT 26 Aug. 2003; BBC 28 Sept. 2003). Estimated to have 11,000 members (Africa Confidential 26 Sept. 2003, 3; Africa Research Bulletin 30 Sept. 2003, 15463), a 16 August 2003 Action by Church Together (ACT) report stated that Arrow militias are “volunteer fighters from the old Teso rebel army and the Uganda people’s Army, which made peace with the government in early 1990.”
