Subject field(s)
  • Physical Fitness Training and Bodybuilding
DEF

A bodybuilding exercise performed by completing the following movements : lying on your left side, bend your right(top) leg so that your right foot ends up in front of your left knee. Raise your left leg as high as possible off the floor, then return it to its original position. Do a full set on one side, then repeat with the opposite side.

OBS

This exercise targets the hip adductors.

Domaine(s)
  • Conditionnement physique et culturisme
DEF

Exercice de musculation qui s'exécute en effectuant les mouvements suivants : couché sur le côté gauche, repliez votre jambe droite (celle du dessus) de manière à ce que votre pied droit se retrouve devant votre genou gauche. Levez votre jambe gauche le plus haut possible, puis retournez-la au sol. Faites une série complète d'un côté, puis recommencez avec l'autre côté.

OBS

Cet exercice sollicite les muscles adducteurs des hanches.

OBS

«Adduction de la hanche, couché» : Puisque l'une des traductions les plus répandues de «lying abduction» est «abduction de la hanche, couché», il serait logique de retrouver «adduction de la hanche, couché» comme équivalent du terme «lying adduction». Malheureusement, nous n'avons trouvé aucune occurrence de ce terme, nous n'avons trouvé que le terme «abduction de la hanche, couché», à partir duquel nous avons donc créé «adduction de la hanche, couché».

  • Aircraft Piloting and Navigation
CONT

When deciding the length to be provided, consideration should be given to providing an area long enough to contain overruns and undershoots resulting from a reasonably probable continuation of adverse operational factors on a precision approach runway, the ILS localizer is normally the first upstanding obstacle and the runway end safety area should extend up to this facility.

CONT

When the track bar is used in conjunction with a VOR [VHF omnidirectional radio range], a lean out of 10° to one or the other side from the signal causes a full deflection of the indicator. If the same pointer is used as an indicator of the ILS localizer, a full deflection will be induced by a 2, 5° diversion from the center of the localizer's beam.

CONT

Instrument landing system localizer. A system of horizontal guidance embodied in the instrument landing system which indicates the horizontal deviation of the aircraft from its optimum path of descent along the axis of the runway or along some other path when used as an offset.

  • Social Organization
OBS

Big Sisters and Big Brothers were agencies in Ottawa that provided adult friends and mentors to girls and boys in need in order to enable them to achieve their full potential as young men and women. Studies have shown that mentoring is the most effective way of helping a youngster deal positively with the challenges of growing up. For almost 30 years, these two agencies operated side by side in the Greater Ottawa Area. Now, we are one organization, with an aim to improve service delivery, expand the number of children we serve and present a more coherent fact to clients, funders and the general public alike.

OBS

First title confirmed by the organization.

OBS

À l'origine, les Grandes Sœurs et les Grands Frères étaient deux agences distinctes à Ottawa. Leur mission était de fournir des amis et des mentors adultes aux filles et aux garçons qui en ont besoin afin de leur permettre de réaliser leur plein potentiel en tant que jeunes hommes et femmes. Les résultats de diverses études révèlent que le mentorat constitue le moyen le plus efficace d'aider une jeune personne à faire face aux défis des étapes de la croissance de façon positive. Depuis près de 30 ans ces deux agences ont assuré leurs services côte à côte dans l'Ottawa métropolitain. Maintenant devenue une seule agence fusionnée, nous tenons à respecter trois principaux objectifs, à savoir améliorer la prestation de services, offrir nos services à davantage d'enfants et faire profiter les clients, les agences de financement et le grand public d'un système davantage cohérent.

CONT

Jobe's Test. The arm is held in the scapular plane, not directly in front or out to the side, but at a comfortable angle, as if pouring out a can of pop(about 30 degrees from full extension). If holding the pouring position is painful it is because the greater tuberosity is being driven up against the acromion, a positive Jobe's test for impingement. At the same time, since this is a position of strength, push down on the arm to test for any weakness.

CONT

Door bottoms. The gap below doors is one of the worst draft areas in many houses. There are several types of weatherstripping for the bottom of a door.

OBS

The term "door bottom" is used to designate two concepts. In a broad sense, it is used to describe a type or class of weatherstripping used to seal the gap at the bottom of a door and includes weatherstripping attached to the floor or threshold as well as weatherstripping affixed to the bottom of the door itself(i. e., full threshold weatherstripping, partial threshold weatherstripping, door bottoms and door sweeps). In a narrower sense, "door bottom" designates one type of weatherstripping that is fixed to the bottom of the door and covers the entire thickness of the door(as opposed to a door sweep, which is attached on the exterior side of the door only).

French

Domaine(s)

Subject field(s)
  • Fencing
DEF

The basic attacking move toward an opponent consisting in a full extension of the arm followed by a wide step forward of the foot on the same side as the sword arm(front foot) while keeping the other foot(rear foot) in place.

CONT

The lunge is a sudden attack on an opponent. The back leg is used for power. First, you swiftly extend your sword arm so that your foil is thrust straight at the target. In the next split second, you lift your front leg forward.

OBS

The lunge is an aggressive action designed to enable the fencer to reach the opponent from a distance greater than that afforded by extension of the weapon arm.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Escrime
DEF

Action consistant en une détente de la jambe arrière combinée avec une projection de la jambe avant.

CONT

La fente est une attaque soudaine. Toute la force vient de la jambe arrière. L'escrimeur déploie d'abord rapidement le bras armé, de façon à diriger son arme droit vers la cible. Immédiatement après, il projette son pied avant.

OBS

Plusieurs sources considèrent «fente» et «développement» synonymes bien qu'en absolu, la «fente» se limite à la projection de la jambe du côté du bras armé vers l'avant avec détente de la jambe arrière, l'extension du bras armé vers l'avant étant le «déploiement» ou «allongement du bras», et le «développement», le combiné des deux soient le déploiement du bras suivi de la fente.

CONT

The amplitude of diaphragmatic excursion can be measured accurately on either side by marking, with a skin pencil, the exact lower limit of pulmonary resonance posteriorly and laterally in full expiration, and in full inspiration with the breath held momentarily. The distance between the two parallel lines drawn on the chest marks the amplitude of diaphragmatic movement.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Symptômes (Médecine)
CONT

L'examen radiologique comprend l'examen radioscopique dynamique et la comparaison de deux clichés, l'un pris en inspiration forcée, l'autre en expiration forcée. Il donne deux renseignements : le degré d'obscurcissement à l'expiration profonde et l'amplitude de la course diaphragmatique. Celle-ci s'apprécie de face. Elle est normalement de l'ordre de 7 cm.

Subject field(s)
  • Skiing and Snowboarding
DEF

[A module] comprised of a huge snow ridge with a long and progressive kicker to do a full transition or land on either side of the jump.

OBS

The jump will be easy if the rider can see the landing area from the start. The kicker is very progressive and it is possible to launch off at low speed. A spine feature is considered dangerous when the air time trajectory is too far away from the axis of the feature. In this case, the rider might move away from the walland could land on the flat. Since a full transition jump requires a lot of amplitude and a precise assessment of the distance to travel in the air, it is intended for expert riders only.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Ski et surf des neiges
DEF

[Module constitué] d’une crête immense avec un long tremplin progressif pour faire une transition complète ou atterrir sur l’un des deux côtés.

OBS

Le saut est facile lorsque le skieur [ou le planchiste] peut voir la zone de réception dès le départ. Le tremplin est très progressif et l’envol peut se faire à basse vitesse. Toutefois, ce type de saut peut s’avérer dangereux lorsque la trajectoire dans les airs est trop éloignée de l’axe du module, car le skieur [ou le planchiste] risque de se décaler du mur et d’atterrir sur le plat. Étant donné que le saut en transition complète nécessite une amplitude importante et une appréciation parfaite de la distance à survoler, il est réservé aux skieurs [ou aux planchistes] de haut niveau.

DEF

An axe with one face bevelled and the other flat, for hewing timber.

CONT

The Side Axe was one of the main tools of the medieval builder and is still in occasional use, e. g. on the water front, or for squaring-up round timbers in the wood for the saw pit or saw mill. One advantage of the Side Axe over the Saw is its ability to follow the angles or taper of the timber, thus avoiding waste and retaining full strength.

OBS

"Squaring axe" should not be confused with a particular type of axe also called "squaring axe" or "blocking axe". See the "Dictionary of Tools" by R.A. Salaman.

OBS

According to "Terminology of Forest Science, Technology Practice and Products (FOFOR), "broad axe" is used in Australia and in New Zealand.
