Side echoes[ :] Squeezing a... multi-directional radio wave into a directional radar wave is never fully achieved. Not all of the radar wave can be focused by the radar aerial into the main lobe. Some escapes into what are known as side lobes. Side echoes are caused by reflections from the side lobes of the radar beam. They are likely to appear when a target is a good radar reflector and in range of the weaker side lobes.  2, record 1, English, - side%2Dlobe%20echo

Many egg farmers get excellent egg yields from hens two to four years old--fully as good as from pullets. Because of this fact, it is evident there is much in the method of management and in the breeding. For this reason the statement may be repeated--not to part with a hen so long as she lays well.

The Children's Oral Health Initiative(COHI) was developed as a means to address the disparity between the oral health of First Nations and Inuit and that of the general Canadian population. COHI was launched on a test basis in Fall 2004. COHI focuses on the prevention of dental disease and promotion of good oral health practices. The goal of COHI is to shift the emphasis from a primarily treatment based approach to a more balanced prevention and treatment focus. The initial focus for oral health promotion will be directed at three target groups : pregnant women and primary caregivers; pre-school children, 0-4 years of age; and school children, 5-7 years of age. Health Canada expects that the COHI, once fully implemented in subsequent years, will result in significant improvement of the oral health in First Nations and Inuit.  1, record 7, English, - Children%27s%20Oral%20Health%20Initiative

L'Initiative en santé buccodentaire des enfants (ISBE) a été élaborée pour combler l'écart qui existe en matière de santé buccodentaire entre les collectivités des Premières nations et des Inuits et l'ensemble de la population canadienne. L'ISBE a été lancée à l'automne 2004 à titre d'essai. L'ISBE est essentiellement axé sur sur la prévention des maladies buccodentaires et la promotion de bonnes habitudes d'hygiène buccodentaire. L'ISBE, se concentre sur un programme plus équilibré de prévention et de traitement préventif plutôt que sur le traitement primaire même. La promotion de la santé buccodentaire s'adressera initialement aux trois groupes cibles suivants : les femmes enceintes et les principaux pourvoyeurs de soins; les enfants en âge préscolaire de 0 à 4 ans; les enfants en âge scolaire de 5 à 7 ans. Santé Canada prévoit une amélioration importante de la santé buccodentaire des Premières nations et des Inuits une fois la mise en œuvre de l'ISBE.  1, record 7, French, - Initiative%20en%20sant%C3%A9%20buccodentaire%20des%20enfants

Record number: 8, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Silicon Drift Detectors(SDD) are essentially 450 μm-thick discs of high-resistivity silicon which is fully depleted by applying a negative bias voltage to both sides of the disc. On one side of the planar structure the bias is graduated across the device by means of a series of "drift rings" such that a strong transverse electric field component is developed within the structure. This is used to direct electrons produced as a result of x-ray interactions towards a small charge collecting anode. On the opposite side of the device(x-ray entrance side) there is a uniform shallow implanted junction contact to allow good low energy x-ray sensitivity and minimum charge loss.  2, record 8, English, - silicon%20drift%20detector

While all countries are encouraged to adopt the good practices proposed in the Code, implementation is voluntary.

ESA has presently only developed a basic end effector(BEE) for the European robotic arm. Although the BEE can support EVA and has a good overall performance, its size and mass make its use impractical for most of the operations involved in servicing payloads external to the spacecraft. The dexterity needed for these operations requires a much smaller, compact gripper, equipped with an array of sensors which fully monitor both its status and operations. Furthermore, it is desirable to keep to a minimum the limitations and constraints imposed on the payload by the interface requirements. Functions performed by the gripper are : recovery of insertion misalignments; positioning of an object at a target location; securing an object firmly and releasably; provision of mechanical power; monitoring gripper status and operation.  2, record 12, English, - basic%20end%20effector

Record number: 13, Textual support number: 1 CONT

A good understanding of the basic axis system used to describe aircraft motion is necessary to fully appreciate flight test data, since all measurements are referenced to this axis system. Aircraft translational motion is described in terms of motion in three different directions, each direction being perpendicular to the other two(orthogonal). Motion in the X direction is forward and aft velocity. The Y direction produces sideways motion to the left and right, and up and down motion is in the Z direction... There are several slightly different versions of the basic axis system just described. They differ primarily in the exact placement of the zero reference lines, but are generally similar in their directions.(For example, the body-axis system uses the fuselage center line as the x axis, while a wind-axis system uses the direction that the aircraft is moving through the air as the x axis.)  4, record 13, English, - body%20axis%20system
