The Legend of the Dream Catcher tells us that the Native American Indians believe that the night air is filled with dreams, both good and bad. The dream catcher is woven of willow, antler, bones, feathers, sinew, bits or fur, leaves and other things of nature. The dream catcher, when hung above an infant’s cradle or a place of rest, swinging freely with the breeze, catches the dreams as they enter the life of the dreamer. The good dreams know the way, slipping through the outer holes and sliding down the soft feathers so gently into the peaceful slumbering sleeper. The bad dreams, however, not knowing the way, would get tangled in the web, perishing with the first light of the new day.  3, record 1, English, - dream%20catcher

Cerceau dans lequel passe un tressage, à la manière d'une toile d'araignée et qui, une fois suspendu au-dessus du lit d'un enfant, agira comme un filtre, ne laissant pénétrer que les rêves empreints de douceur.

Several different terminologies have been used to describe physiological acceleration. Since the terminology may be based either on the action of the accelerating vehicle or the reaction of the passenger, the terms used are often confusing to a reader without prior knowledge of the system of terminology used. Probably the most easily understood system is the eyeballs in, eyeballs out, eyeballs down, eyeballs up, etc., terminology used by test pilots, which refers to the sensations experienced by the person being accelerated. Thus, the acceleration experienced in an aircraft pullout or inside loop is eyeballs down. Note that, in the NASA vehicle(center of gravity displacement) terminology, this is-az acceleration. Some physiological-acceleration terminologies designate accelerations in terms of the equivalent displacement acceleration of the subject as if he were starting from rest. In such terminologies a man standing up or sitting down on the surface of the earth is experiencing 1 g of headward acceleration because of gravity. Other descriptive terms used in this way are footward, forward(the acceleration experienced by a man pressed into the seat back by an accelerating vehicle), rearward, leftward, rightward, spineward, sternumward, and tailward. One terminology based on reaction uses the terms head-to-foot(the acceleration generated by a pullout in an aircraft), chest-to-back, foot-to-head, and back-to-chest.  2, record 2, English, - chest%2Dto%2Dback%20acceleration

Most inertial platforms are mechanized... in a "local vertical" mode, which means that the perpendicular to the stable element(inner gimbal) always points toward the center of the Earth. To accomplish this, the integrated outputs of the north and east accelerometers(vehicle velocity) are divided by the radius of the Earth and used as an additional signal to drive the gimbal torquers. This is known as a Schuler loop.  3, record 5, English, - Schuler%20loop

Ce type de boucle d'asservissement est appelé « boucle de Shüller » du nom d'un physicien allemand qui étudia les pendules pesants. En effet, la plateforme ainsi stabilisée s'apparente à un pendule puisqu'elle reste toujours perpendiculaire à la verticale.  2, record 5, French, - boucle%20de%20Schuler

Notice in the drawing routines, especially the arc routines, that familiarity with how the arc routine works is important. In the first arc statement, the command arc is executed and the first point is entered. The center option is chosen before the second point is entered. At this point, you should be able to decipher what is happening in the first nine statements of this function. Next, the arc number value is initialized and set. This value counts how many times you run through this routine. Each time you run through the routine, you create one first arc. The next statement calculates the arc length by calculating the distance between the start and end points of the first arc. Now that you have the arc number and the length of the arcs, you can calculate the overall length of the insulation. Notice the last statement of the routine. That is precisely what happens. In the while loop, the variable total is compared to the wall length. If the total variable is less than the wall length variable, the routine will be run again. Otherwise, the routine is ended.  2, record 6, English, - arc%20routine
