Fire crews are hoping they can achieve full containment of the fire before the winds pick up. = control. the act of keeping something under control, stopping it becoming more powerful etc. Strategic U.S. foreign policy of the late 1940s and early 1950s intended to check the expansionist designs of the Soviet Union through economic, military, diplomatic, and political means.

an association in which one object instantiates the contained object (Making Objects - Slide 12)
