The Kay Scoot About... is a scooter board designed for use with children and adults with lower extremity or severe physical disabilities. This four-wheeled, height-adjustable device enables children and adults to sit on the seat and propel themselves with their feet and enabling them to work on heel strike and coordinated knee flexion and extension skills. These patterns, needed for ambulation, can be developed while seated in the absence of standing balance. The height-adjustable seat enables the user to be positioned with the appropriate... hip and knee flexion and movement. Standard features include a padded seat, padded handgrips. and four large swivel casters.  3, record 1, English, - scooter%20board

Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Choosing an external breast prosthesis after a mastectomy is one option for women who either elect to wait to have breast reconstruction or who choose not to have the additional surgery. An external breast prosthesis is an artificial breast form that can be worn after a mastectomy to help balance the body and anchor the bra on the side of the mastectomy from riding up, which helps prevent back and neck pain and a sagging shoulder. Breast prostheses are custom-made for most women and are made from several different types of material(such as silicone gel, foam, and fiberfill) that feel similar to natural breast tissue and are usually weighted so they feel the same as the remaining breast. Some prostheses adhere directly to the chest area and others fit into pockets of postmastectomy bras, which are fitted with pockets on the inside to hold the device in place.  1, record 3, English, - external%20breast%20prosthesis

The Aztec word for a spear throwing stick device.  4, record 4, English, - atlatl

Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS

This projectile propulsion device preceded the bow and arrow. In general, a wooden or bone stick or board with a hand grip at one end and a spur or hook at the other end. The atlatl is used as an extension of the arm in throwing a spear or dart. The spear shaft is socketed and fits into the spur or hook of the Atlatl. Essentially the Atlatl lengthens the length of the spear thrower's arm and with loaded, spring-like, motion can provide the benefit of greater force and distance over that of the hand thrown spear. It is hypothesized that sometimes a stone weight(s)(a. k. a. : Bannerstone, Birdstone, Boatstone) was attached to the Atlatl to provide better balance or to load the device with a spring or bending effect or to diminish the "whoosh" noise created during the throwing process.  4, record 4, English, - atlatl

L'atlatl a servi pendant très longtemps à lancer les javelots des chasseurs ou des guerriers. Encore maintenant, ce propulseur mécanique reste utilisé par les chasseurs de l'Alaska et d'Australie. Les hommes installent une extrémité de leur lance dans la planche juste avant de l'envoyer, pour multiplier leur force et donc la vitesse de la lance dans l'air. Grâce à l'atlatl, les lances atteignent des vitesses de 100 km/h sur une distance de 200 mètres.  1, record 4, French, - atlatl

Coulometric techniques. SO₂ can be detected by measuring the current necessary to maintain an equilibrium concentration of potassium bromide and bromine in an H₂SO₄ solution. As SO₂ is absorbed the bromine concentration will decrease and a current to an electrode is monitored for how much bromine need to be produced to restore the original concentration balance. Sensitivity is adequate for most urban and industrial applications; however, for background rural sampling, the device has been replaced by the next detector.  2, record 8, English, - coulometric%20technique

Electrical resistivity fish counters... counting fish by noting changes in the electrical resistivity of water through which they swim was pioneered by Lethlean. The basis of his approach was to apply a low voltage across two volumes of water through which the fish to be counted are constrained to pass and detect the changes in their resistances caused by the presence of the fish... This device [electrical resistivity fish counter] amplifies the "out of balance" voltage caused by the presence of fish, passes this signal through logic circuitry and activates an appropriately labelled digit meter.  1, record 10, English, - electrical%20resistivity%20fish%20counter
