Smelling is a good way to determine whether meat and dairy are spoiled. If it smells rancid or sour, you might as well throw it away....

Beware of the “Ugly Baby Syndrome. ” An “Ugly Baby” is developed at the concept phase and you can not put it back. So what happens? It gets dressed up to make it look OK. It hangs around for about 18 years because the factory will “adopt” the ugly baby and resist re-design. The moral of the story is that the concept phase is extremely important to prevent creation of an unworkable design that ends up staying around because no one wants to throw away something they’ve started working with. 3, record 5, English, - ugly%20baby%20syndrome

Subsurface drip irrigation is a variation of traditional drip irrigation where the tubing and emitters are buried beneath the soil surface, rather than laid on the ground or suspended from wires. The products being used today in subsurface drip irrigation come in three basic configurations : hard hose, drip tape, and porous tubing.... With drip tapes, the tubing wall thickness from 0. 1 to 0. 5 mm(4-20 mils). The thinner materials are more commonly found in single season or throw away applications, typical of strawberry production. The heavier wall materials ranging from 0. 35 to 0. 50 mm(15-20 mils) are more commonly found in multi-year applications or where the extra strength is required due to stones or other problems identified at the field site. 3, record 10, English, - drip%20tape

The most popular of marbles games were played on dirt. In Potty, a hole is dug into the dirt with the heel. All players throw their marbles in turn at the Pot from a throwing line about seven feet away. The player whose marble is closest to the hole(if he is lucky, he will throw his marble into the Pot on the first try) goes first. He then shoots for the Pot(...) 1, record 16, English, - potty

Le pot. (...) Les joueurs lancent à tour de rôle une bille vers le "pot", trou de 15 cm de diamètre creusé à 4 m de la ligne de départ. Les billes sont ensuite lancées de l'endroit où elles se sont arrêtées, sauf quand un joueur a réussi à envoyer sa bille dans le pot, auquel cas il recommence à jouer de la ligne de départ. Plutôt que de viser le pot, les joueurs peuvent avoir intérêt dans certains cas à viser une bille adverse pour l'écarter du pot. Chaque bille entrée dans le pot rapporte 10 points. La partie se joue généralement en 110 points. L'enjeu (un nombre de billes) est fixé à l'avance par les joueurs. 3, record 16, French, - pot

Dans les instruments à disques, les pièces travaillantes: soc, versoir, et coutre, sont remplacés par une pièce unique appelée d'ailleurs improprement disque. Dans les terrains rocheux, le disque présente un gros avantage. Avec les socs il arrive fréquemment que ceux-ci buttent et que l'on détériore l'instrument. Avec le disque qui roule sur la roche sans s'enfoncer et passe au-dessus de l'obstacle, ce défaut disparaît. 2, record 17, French, - disque%20butteur
