Found in Wales and Scotland, in England where it borders those two, and in the area around Omagh, Northern Ireland, the Old Red Sandstone is a huge set of sedimentary rocks(primarily brown and red, giving it its name) dating to the Devonian. It is a marine formation, having been laid down from 408 to 370 million years ago as earlier Silurian rocks uplifted by the formation of Pangaea eroded and slid into a body of fresh water(probably a series of large river deltas). They are extremely thick, up to 11, 000 meters in places, and can be subdivided into three categories "Lower", "Middle", and "Upper" from oldest to youngest. As a result, the Old Red Sandstone is a rich source of marine fossils. 4, record 12, English, - Old%20Red%20Sandstone

The first six items of the Code relate to primary prevention : no smoking, moderate alcohol intake, no excessive exposure to sunlight, respect safety instructions, regular consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables as well as high-fiber foods, and avoid excessive body weight. The last four items concern secondary prevention. They recommend to see a physician in the case of a changing beauty spot, an appearing nodule, an abnormal blood loss, a persistent cough or hoarse voice, a persistent stool change or an unexplained loss of body weight. Women are advised to examine their breast regularly, to have a smear of the cervix uteri periodically, and to have mammographies taken as from the age of 50. 1, record 15, English, - European%20cancer%20code

Les six premiers points de ce code relèvent de la prévention primaire : ne pas fumer, modérer sa consommation d'alcool, éviter les expositions exagérées au soleil, respecter les prescriptions en matière de sécurité, consommer régulièrement des fruits et des légumes frais ainsi que des aliments riches en fibres, éviter l'excès de poids. Les quatre derniers points relèvent de la prévention secondaire. Il y est en effet conseillé de consulter un médecin en cas de changement d'aspect d'un grain de beauté, d'apparition d'un nodule, de perte de sang anormale, de toux ou de voix rauque persistante, de modifications persistantes des selles ou de perte de poids inexpliquée. Quant aux femmes, elles sont invitées à examiner régulièrement leurs seins, à se soumettre périodiquement à un frottis du col de l'utérus et à effectuer des mammographies à partir de 50 ans. 1, record 15, French, - code%20europ%C3%A9en%20contre%20le%20cancer

Environment Control and Life Support System(ECLSS) : The orbiter's Environmental Control and Life-Support System purifies the cabin air, adds fresh oxygen, keeps the pressure at sea level, heats and cools the air, and provides drinking and wash water. The system also includes lavatory facilities. The cabin is pressurized to sea level(14. 7 psi) with 21 percent oxygen and 79 percent nitrogen, comparable to Earth's atmosphere. The air is circulated through lithium hydroxide/charcoal canisters which remove carbon dioxide. The canisters are changed on a regular basis. Excess heat from the cabin and flight-deck electronics is collected by a circulating coolant water system and transferred to radiator panels on the payload bay doors where it is dissipated. The fuel cells produce about seven pounds of water each hour. It is stored in tanks, and excess water is dumped overboard. The lavatory unit collects and processes body waste, and also collects wash water from the personal hygiene station. The lavatory unit, located in the middeck area, operates much like those on commercial airlines but is designed for a weightless space environment. 3, record 16, English, - environment%20control%20and%20life%20support%20system
