NEVER AGAIN [18 records]

Record 1 2021-02-12

English

Subject field(s)
  • Advertising Techniques
CONT

Examples of Bait & Switch Advertising. How many times have you seen an ad for an item that has a price so low you can barely believe it? And then, when you rush to the store, a store clerk tells you that they just sold the last one. Or, that you don’t qualify for the rate listed in the ad? Or, maybe you’ve seen a competitor's low pricing advertised again and again so that you finally realize that those amazing deals never existed in the first place? They’re called bait-and-switch ads, and unethical businesses use them to lure customers away from your business.

Subject field(s)
  • General Vocabulary
  • Electronic Music
CONT

With a computer, a modem and the right software, browsing for the latest albums might never be the same again. A growing number of databases on computer networks, known as on-line music-distribution services, allow music fans to listen to a song and even record if free of charge-all without leaving your home.

OBS

On-line music-distribution services are several evolutionary steps beyond bulletin boards. Whether you’re dialling in by modem, or hopping on to Internet via high-speed digital lines, users can tap into various "sites," browse through menus for the artists and types of music available on-line, and download (depending on your software capability) audio samples of their music for playback.

Subject field(s)
  • Industrial and Economic Psychology
CONT

Both evolutionists and economists argue that individuals do things for the larger group only if it is also for the good of the individual. Animals rarely do selfless things for their species. And people rarely do selfless things for the good of society. But even desiccated economists had noticed the "voter paradox. "People vote in elections despite the fact that no individual can expect to influence the outcome. People give to charity. Executives work long hours on behalf of their firms. Travellers tip waiters they will never see again. Soldiers willingly risk their lives for their country. Trust, cooperation and altruism are all part of human life. They are also part of animal life. The question is how do you reconcile altruism with the invisible hand and survival of the fittest?

Subject field(s)
  • Historical Names

OBS

The Glorious Revolution was the overthrow of James II of England in 1688 by a union of Parliamentarians and the Dutch stadholder William III of Orange-Nassau(William of Orange). It is sometimes called the Bloodless Revolution, although there was fighting and loss of life in Ireland and Scotland; many modern historians prefer the more neutral alternative Revolution of 1688. The Revolution is closely tied in with the events of the Nine Years War on the continent of Europe, and may be seen as the last successful invasion of England. It can be argued that James’ overthrow began modern English parliamentary democracy; never again would the monarch hold absolute power. The deposition of the Catholic James II finally and firmly established Protestantism in England.

OBS

La Glorieuse Révolution d'Angleterre (en anglais Glorious Revolution, aussi appelé Seconde Révolution anglaise par certains historiens français, ou encore «bloodless revolution») fut une révolution pacifique (1688-1689) qui renversa le roi Jacques II (Jacques II d'Écosse) et provoqua l'avènement de la fille de celui-ci, Marie II et de son époux, Guillaume III, prince d'Orange. La révolution aboutit à l'instauration d'une monarchie constitutionnelle et parlementaire à la place du gouvernement autocratique des Stuarts.

Subject field(s)
  • Mountain Sports
CONT

Soft, flexible Black Diamond climbing pants allow you to move freely. Hassle-free pull-on style with drawstring elastic waist and narrow tapered legs. Side seam pockets. Back hook-and-loop closure pocket.

CONT

Climbing trousers, constructed from a hardwearing lightweight fabric. The thermal quality makes them ideal for warming up, bouldering and rock climbing. The ultimate combination of durability warmth & comfort!

CONT

Read the paper, went to the shops where I managed to get myself some alpine climbing trousers from Decathlon. Made by Millet, they look like your standard baggy synthetic trousers, but they stretch a bit so they can be tighter without sacrificing mobility. A snip at 33 quid.

OBS

In the selection of pants, again looseness and comfort are of prime importance. For both hiking and climbing, trousers should never be too tight.

OBS

Be sure the trousers are roomy. They must be ample around the waist in order to accommodate a heavy sweater, shirt, and extra layer of wool, and still allow unrestricted movement.

OBS

Advantages and disadvantages of certain materials. Whipcord is made for laborers, postmen, milkmen, and such and will not get wet with the first raindrops. Corduroy, on the other hand, soaks up moisture too easily and is not very durable. Wool will remain warm even when drenched and is the best answer for outdoor wear. You may consider lederhosen, leather pants imported from the Alps. The knicker length variety, though expensive, are a good investment because rocks will not tear them. Non-waterproof nylon wind pants are useful to wear over other trousers in windy, frigid areas and when climbing extensively above timberline. Wind pants should be loose-fitting and have a drawstring around the ankles to prevent wind from blowing up the legs. Rain pants in waterproof fabric are of some value in wet, brushy areas, but in general the lack of ventilation makes these pants unsatisfactory. A light pair of cotton pants may be used as extras for hot weather, but are no substitute for wool pants in cold weather.

OBS

Terms usually used in the plural.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Sports de montagne
CONT

La forme la plus pratique pour un pantalon de montagne est la forme knicker (forme courte s'arrêtant à 10 cm au-dessous du genou).

CONT

Pour le pantalon, je vais devoir en acheter un mais j'hésite entre un pantalon d'alpinisme et sur pantalon gore tex + bas en capilène.

OBS

Avantages et inconvénients de certains tissus. Le velours absorbe l'humidité, donc une fois mouillé sèche difficilement. Le meilleur tissu, car il est chaud, est ce qu'on appelle le drap de montagne, donc les draps de Bonneval, de Bagnes et de Bessans et le whipcord. Les pantalons peuvent être en gabardine légère pour les courses de rocher.

OBS

Le cuir est à déconseiller, car il durcit en séchant et blesse l'entre-jambe.

OBS

Le pantalon de laine est chaud, mais lourd.

Subject field(s)
  • Photography
CONT

Shaving the layers of the film from the emulsion takes practice and patience. An over anxious retoucher usually ends up with an uneven job, or worse yet a few deep gouges. Keep the blade in motion, moving with small strokes in one direction-never back and forth. After etching, apply retouching fluid to the emulsion if lead will be used. Care must be taken when applying the fluid to avoid lines of demarcation. When applying retouching fluid or "dope", be sure the fluid is either fresh or thin. Thick, tacky retouching fluid will create a dust problem. Artist turpentine of methanol are good thinners to add to thickened fluid. Again, handle all chemicals with caution. Apply the retouching fluid only within the facial area when working on b/w portraiture.

As part of Rider's commitment to providing the highest level of customer service, Rider GTS clients are assigned a Traveller Identification Number(TIN). A TIN, unique to each traveller, is also required to make a reservation. Not to be confused with TANs, which are good for only one trip; a TIN assigned to a traveller never changes and the same TIN is used again and again. Thus, travellers are easily identified in Rider's systems, through their unique TIN(Information sheet from Rider Government Travel Service).
