Hard bargaining. Hard bargaining strategies emphasize results over relationships. Hard bargainers will insist that their demands be completely agreed to and accepted before any agreement is possible. While this approach avoids the need to make concessions, it also reduces the likelihood of successfully negotiating an agreement, and usually harms the relationship with the other party as well. 3, record 1, English, - hard%20negotiation

Type I osteoporosis(postmenopausal osteoporosis) generally develops in women after menopause when the amount of estrogen in the body greatly decreases. This process leads to an increase in the resorption of bone(the bones loses substance). Type 1 osteoporosis is far more common in women than in men, and typically develops between the ages of 50 and 70. The process usually results in a decrease in the amount of trabecular bone(the spongy bone inside of the hard cortical bone). The decrease in the overall strength of the bone leads primarily to wrist and vertebral body(in the spine) fractures. 3, record 3, English, - postmenopausal%20osteoporosis

This class of wheat is grown in the Great Plains area of the U. S. which includes the states of Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, Oklahoma, Texas, Montana, South Dakota and Wyoming. In 1981, it formed about 40% of total U. S. wheat production. The wheat is a strong type(gluten quality) and its flour produces good bread. Its average protein content is in the range of 12 to 13%; normally it has good test weight(75 to 77 kilograms per hectolitre) and is low in moisture content(11 to 12%). With proper conditioning it gives good milling results. The most prominent varieties of this group in 1981 were Newton, Larned, Eagle and Scout. Hard red winter wheat has no subclasses for grading purposes. It is assigned numerical grades but has somewhat higher(2 pounds for No. 1 and 1 pound for other grades) test weights. 1, record 5, English, - hard%20red%20winter%20wheat

Cette classe de blé est cultivée dans la Prairie américaine (Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, Oklahoma, Texas, Montana, Dakota du Sud et Wyoming). En 1981, elle représentait environ 40% de la production américaine totale de blé. Ce type de blé est fort en gluten et sa farine donne un bon pain. Pour les protéines, sa teneur moyenne oscille entre 12 et 13%. Son poids spécifique est généralement bon (75 à 77 kg/hl) et sa teneur en eau est faible (11 à 12%). Conditionné convenablement, ce blé possède de bonnes qualités meunières. Les variétés les plus en évidence dans ce groupe, en 1981, étaient le Newton, le Larned, l'Eagle et le Scout (dont le Scout 66). Le blé de force rouge d'hiver n'a pas de sous-classe.

If the resolution of the image is sufficiently high (e.g. 1m or less), it may be that each pixel will represent only one type of land cover, and so we can make an accurate ’hard’ classification. However, for lower-resolution images - the kind that are more readily available for different places and for different times - each pixel is likely to represent a mix of different land-cover types. As a result, a hard classification will probably represent only a part of the pixel and will inaccurately describe the remainder of the area covered by that pixel. 4, record 12, English, - hard%20classification

La classification élastique est un mécanisme qui a été conçu [...] en milieu hiérarchique. Étant donné un problème cible et une hiérarchie de concepts représentant des problèmes, la classification élastique permet de mettre en évidence des chemins de similarité entre problèmes (concepts) de la hiérarchie et le problème cible. La classification élastique est un mécanisme de remémoration guidée par l'adaptabilité : les solutions des problèmes remémorés sont nécessairement adaptables. La classification élastique peut être considérée comme une extension de la classification hiérarchique floue. 2, record 13, French, - classification%20%C3%A9lastique

Chez l'homme, de nombreux rythmes biologiques ont une évolution circadienne (proche de 24 h). C'est le cas du rythme veille-sommeil, de la température interne, de la sécrétion de certaines hormones. Lorsqu'on décale un individu d'au moins 5 heures, les rythmes circadiens ne se réadaptent pas au nouvel horaire à la même vitesse : - le rythme veille-sommeil est en général le plus rapide et met deux à trois jours à s'adapter; - le rythme de la température est plus lent et met 8 jours à s'adapter; - les rythmes hormonaux peuvent parfois mettre 3 semaines avant de s'adapter. Il en résulte une désynchronisation interne (ou dyschronisme) entre les rythmes circadiens ce qui est sans doute responsable de l'état de malaise ressenti par les individus soumis à un décalage. 2, record 17, French, - dyschronisme
