Handstanding is also possible. The rider grasps each end of the board with his hands and pushes off gently. Slowly he adopts the handstand position. This is one of the most dangerous freestyle tricks and it is vital that helmet and pads should be worn.

Le générique «remontée mécanique» englobe les funiculaires, les téléphériques, les télécabines, les télésièges et tous les téléskis de type câble ou tire-fesses. Parmi les tire-fesses, on compte : 1. l'arbalète, téléski à archets ou «remonte-pente en T» qui tracte deux skieurs, chacun des côtés de la barre (ou archet double) les tirant sous les fesses; 2. le téléski à perches ou «remonte-pente en J» dont l'extrémité en forme de J tracte un skieur sous les fesses; 3. le téléski à soucoupes ou «remonte-pente à soucoupe(s)» que le skieur glisse entre ses deux jambes. Dans tous les cas, le skieur se laisse tracter, sans s'y asseoir. À l'origine, les génériques «téléski» et «remonte-pente» désignaient le type de remontée que l'on appelle maintenant «tire-fesses»; ce terme également devenu générique, il y a lieu d'utiliser les termes précis pour rendre les spécifiques correspondant à «T-bar», «J-bar» et «poma lift» ou «button lift». 2, record 5, French, - remonte%2Dpente%20%C3%A0%20soucoupes

Ce type de téléski a déja été considéré comme «débrayable»; ce dernier adjectif désigne maintenant le système qui permet à une télécabine ou un télésiège de ralentir sa course à l'embarquement et au débarquement sur un câble d'appoint au débit ralenti. Dans le cas du poma, la perche ne débraie pas mais se détache du câble de traction pour s'aligner sur une suspension d'évitement; elle se réenclenche au câble tracteur sous l'effet du poids du skieur. 2, record 5, French, - remonte%2Dpente%20%C3%A0%20soucoupes

Open drains are relatively inexpensive to install, and can carry larger amounts of water.

Something that would make ecologists happy is a clean airplane. And the Ipanema, Brazil' s first totally alcohol-powered aircraft, is almost off the ground. The project has been in development for two years, under the wing of Neiva, a division of the aircraft manufacturer Embraer and Brazil' s largest agricultural aircraft manufacturer. The Ipanema does not pollute because, unlike conventionally fuelled engines, its alcohol-fuelled engine releases no lead residues into the atmosphere. However, for farmers, the real advantage is low operating cost. "Alcohol is four times less expensive than regular aviation fuel. So, while the alcohol engine consumes a little more fuel, just like automobiles, the bottom line is a savings of about 60 percent"... The alcohol-fuelled engine also boasts five percent more power. This slight advantage will allow the plane to carry extra quantities of crop-dusting products. Another advantage is that this type of engine runs cooler, giving it a longer maintenance cycle and useful life... The aircraft is still in the approval process, so the first alcohol-powered Ipanema will not fly until March 2005, after it has been completely certified. 1, record 10, English, - alcohol%20aircraft

When ponds are drained, the quantities of nutrients and organic matter in the water that is discharged are ... much less than the total waste loading to the pond. Increasing the interval between pond drainings simply makes fuller use of the "waste treatment" capability of the pond ecosystem by allowing natural processes to remove more wastes from the water before discharging the water. 3, record 12, English, - draining%20of%20an%20aerated%20pond

Static systems do not receive continuous water inflow. They rely either on low biomass or natural processes within the system to maintain water quality with occasional additions of new water when required. Most ponds are run as static systems. Water exchange is often achieved by partially draining the pond or tank and then replacing lost water. 4, record 12, English, - draining%20of%20an%20aerated%20pond
