Age-related macular degeneration is the most common cause of severe loss of eyesight among people 50 and older. Only the center of vision is affected with this disease. It is important to realize that people rarely go blind from it. AMD affects the central vision, and with it, the ability to see fine details. In AMD, a part of the retina called the macula is damaged. In advanced stages, people lose their ability to drive, to see faces, and to read smaller print. In its early stages, AMD may have no signs or symptoms, so people may not suspect they have it. 6, record 1, English, - age%2Drelated%20macular%20degeneration

Placekicking is the phase of the kicking game that you’ll use when your team attempts to score a point after touchdown(PAT) or kicking a field goal; your team will attempt a field goal if the drive has been stopped and the team is close enough to the opponent's goal line.... During this phase of the kicking game, three players use special techniques : the kicker(who makes the kick), the holder(who catches the ball from the center and places it on the tee), and the center,(also known as the short snapper(who centers the ball back to the holder). 4, record 2, English, - kicking%20game

Diesel and electric loaders of the LHD(load-haul-dump) variety are high in productivity and have greater flexibility and lower maintenance costs than rail systems... Today's LHDs are long, low-profile units with four-wheel drive and equal speed in forward and reverse directions. They have center articulation for good tracking and maneuverability on the tight turns found underground. Bucket linkages are usually simplified, with only one bucket cylinder on small-capacity models. Brake systems are generally all-hydraulic, and power drive to all four wheels is through a torque converter with full powershift transmission. Bucket capacities range from 1 to 15 cu yd. 7, record 6, English, - load%2Dhaul%2Ddump

For projects using brick, make certain you have a brick trowel, brick chisel, mason's hammer, 4 ft. level, tape measure, pointing trowel, jointing tool, mason's line, wood line blocks and spirit level. The height and thickness of your walls are always important... Be sure to leave a space between bricks for your joint. This method is best to determine the spacing of your bricks. Then, drive a stake in the ground at both ends of your wall and stretch mason's line between them. The line will serve as a straight line guide and should mark the outside edge and top of your first course of bricks. Later, as you proceed, the guideline can be moved up to match each successive course of bricks. Line blocks can be used to hold line in place... When laying bricks, always start at the corners and keep the corners higher than the rest of your work. Work from the corners toward the center of your wall. Use the level frequently to check level and plumb. As the wall increases in height, move the line blocks up to the ends of your corner lead. 2, record 11, English, - line%20block
