Canadian development expenses(CDEs) are the costs incurred for sinking or excavating a mine shaft, main haulage way or similar underground work after a mine comes into production[;] developing a mine before production[;] buying a Canadian mineral property. CDEs can be deducted at a 30% declining balance.  3, record 1, English, - Canadian%20development%20expenses

Les frais d'aménagement au Canada (FAC) sont les frais engagés pour le fonçage ou l'excavation d'un puits de mine, d'une voie de transport principale ou d'un ouvrage souterrain similaire après l'entrée en production d'une mine; le développement d'une mine avant sa mise en production; l'achat d'un gisement minier au Canada. Les FAC peuvent être déduits à 30 % de la valeur résiduelle.  3, record 1, French, - frais%20d%27am%C3%A9nagement%20au%20Canada

The Aztec word for a spear throwing stick device.  4, record 2, English, - atlatl

Record number: 2, 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 2, 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 2, French, - atlatl

A shaft designed so that, as it rotates, it vibrates in a way that reduces or cancels some of the vibration produced by an engine.  3, record 3, English, - balancer

Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS

Not essential to an engine's operation, balance shafts are nonetheless becoming increasingly common as a means of engine refinement. Balance-shafted four-cylinder engines use two shafts turning in opposite directions on either side of the engine's crankshaft. A single balance shaft is used when fitted to three-cylinder and V-6 engines.  3, record 3, English, - balancer
