Christmas pudding is a boiled, or rather steamed, pudding, massively heavy with dried fruit and nuts, and usually made with suet. It should be very dark in appearance - effectively black - and moist with brandy and other alcohol (some recipes call for dark beers such as mild, stout or porter).  3, record 2, English, - Christmas%20pudding

Plum pudding : The name of this specialty comes from the fact that it originally contained plums, which it no longer does. Instead, this traditional Christmas dessert is made with suet, dried currants, raisins, almonds and spices. It's either steamed or boiled and is often served warm, flamed with brandy or rum, and accompanied by hard sauce.  4, record 2, English, - Christmas%20pudding

Christmas pudding is the dessert traditionally served on Christmas day in Britain and Ireland, as well as in some Commonwealth countries. It has its origins in England, and is sometimes known as plum pudding, though this can also refer to other kinds of boiled pudding involving a lot of dried fruit.  3, record 2, English, - Christmas%20pudding

Parsemer le pudding de quelques menus morceaux de sucre; l'arroser de rhum que l'on aura fait chauffer, et l'enflammer au moment de servir. Il est des variantes à cette façon de servir le plum-pudding. On peut le flamber au kirsch, à la fine champagne, au whisky; on peut aussi le servir avec un sabayon au rhum, ou encore avec une crème anglaise chaude. En Angleterre, on le sert souvent accompagné d'un beurre au cognac [...]  4, record 2, French, - pouding%20de%20No%C3%ABl

As the ice cream is drawn with about half of its water frozen, particulate matter such as fruits, nuts, candy, cookies, or whatever you like, is added to the semi-frozen slurry which has a consistency similar to soft-serve ice cream. In fact, almost the only thing which differentiates hard frozen ice cream from soft-serve, is the fact that soft serve is drawn into cones at this point in the process rather than into packages for subsequent hardening.  4, record 3, English, - soft%2Dserve%20ice%20cream

Intelligent Materials.... Such structures may seem far-fetched. But, in fact, many researchers have demonstrated the feasibility of such "living" materials. To animate an otherwide inert substance, modern-day alchemists enlist a variety of devices : actuators and motors that behave like muscles; sensors that serve as nerves and memory; and communications and computational networks that represent the brain and spinal column. In some respects, the systems... can be hard and strong one moment but made to act like Jell-O the next.  2, record 5, English, - intelligent%20material

[...] le «matériau intelligent» [...] [le] matériau est défini comme présentant des fonctions intrinsèques qui lui permettent de se comporter comme un capteur et/ou un actionneur, voire comme un processeur. Il est capable de modifier spontanément ses propriétés physiques (forme, conductivité, couleur, viscoélasticité...) en réponse à des sollicitations naturelles ou provoquées (variation de température, de champ électrique ou magnétique, de contrainte...). C'est- à-dire que le matériau réagit à un stimulus détecté à l'extérieur et adapte sa réponse. Les actionneurs en particulier fournissent une action mécanique ou changent d'aspect (déformation, changement de couleur ou de transparence...) afin de signaler une modification de l'environnement et/ou de provoquer une action corrective. Ces dispositifs peuvent être réalisés dans des alliages à mémoire de forme ou dans des matériaux magnétostrictifs. Les matériaux piézo-électriques servent le plus souvent à réaliser des capteurs.  3, record 5, French, - mat%C3%A9riau%20intelligent

Problems in the class NP(which stands for nondeterministic, polynomial time) are characterized by the fact that although it is easy to check a nondeterministic, or guessed, solution, it is hard to find a correct solution : As the size n of an NP problem increases, the number of computational steps and hence the time required to check a solution increase in proportion to a polynomial function of n such as [the square of n](...), but all known methods of finding a solution increase in proportion to a more rapidly growing function of n, typically an exponential one(...)  1, record 9, English, - NP%20problem

Les problèmes de classe NP (c'est-à-dire non résolubles en temps polynomial) ont la propriété fondamentale suivante : bien qu'il soit facile de vérifier si une valeur donnée est solution, il est très difficile de les résoudre sans information complémentaire. Quand la «taille» n d'un problème NP augmente, le nombre d'étapes de calcul, et donc le temps requis pour vérifier une solution, croît comme une fonction polynomiale de n, telle [le carré de n] (...); toutes les méthodes connues pour trouver une solution exigent un temps de calcul croissant en fonction de n, beaucoup plus rapidement que toute fonction polynôme; ce temps de calcul croît généralement comme une fonction exponentielle (...)  1, record 9, French, - probl%C3%A8me%20NP
