Several studies have demonstrated that ski and snowboard helmets are effective at preventing head injuries. It is estimated that for every 10 people who wear a helmet, up to five may avoid head injuries. Studies also show that even at a speed of 19 km/h, a ski helmet can minimize brain damage. Evidence also demonstrates that ski and snowboards helmet use did not increase the risk of neck injury. 4, record 2, English, - ski%20helmet

Experts recommend that skiers and snowboarders wear a ski helmet in order to reduce the risk of a head injury while skiing. Ski helmets help absorb the shock of an impact to the head, and reduce the jarring of the brain against the skull during impacts with the ski slope or other objects, such as trees or other skiers. The right helmet substantially reduces the risk of concussions and other serious head injuries. ... When choosing a ski or snowboard helmet, look for a helmet that meets ski and snowboard helmet standards from the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM), European Committee for Standardization (CEN) or Snell. There should be a label or sticker on the inside of the helmet to designate such a standard. 5, record 2, English, - ski%20helmet

De nombreuses études ont démontré l'efficacité des casques de ski et de planche à neige dans la prévention des traumatismes crâniens. On estime que sur dix personnes portant un casque, jusqu'à cinq d'entre elles pourraient éviter un traumatisme crânien. Des études démontrent également que même à une vitesse de 19 km/h, un casque de ski peut contribuer à réduire les lésions cérébrales subies. On a également démontré que le port du casque de ski et de planche à neige n'augmente pas le risque de blessure au cou. 2, record 2, French, - casque%20de%20skieur

The majority of the tank cars exhibited impact damage... on the top portion of at least [one] head. This is not unexpected, as most of these cars came to rest on their sides, thereby bringing the top portion of the heads closer to the ground and increasing the probability of impacts with objects such as rail, couplers, and body bolsters. A full-head shield would have been beneficial, as half-head shields protect only the bottom portion of the head. 1, record 3, English, - full%2Dheight%20head%20shield

En Europe toutefois, certaines machines de taille plus petite utilisent une chaîne sans guide, généralement tendue dans un cadre de sciage.

From the milling separator, the grain passes to a gravity separator. This machine separates materials that may be similar in shape and size but that differ in specific gravity, such as wheat and small stones. Uncleaned wheat is "floated" on a metal screen which is oscillating rapidly. The grain moves down the sloping screen to the outlet while the stones are propelled toward the head of the screen by the oscillating movement, and collected separately. Although only a very small percentage of stones may be present, their removal is important since they cause extensive damage to processing machinery. Also, if they are ground along with the wheat, the undesirable fine mineral matter will end up in the flour. 1, record 11, English, - metal%20screen

Du séparateur de mouture, le grain passe au séparateur-aspirateur qui en élimine les matières inertes dont la forme et les dimensions peuvent être celles du blé, mais qui sont d'un poids spécifique différent, comme le blé maigre et les petites pierres. Le blé non trié "plane" sur un tamis métallique qui est animé d'un mouvement d'oscillation rapide. Tandis que le grain suit l'inclinaison du tamis, les pierres sont projetées vers la tête de celui-ci par le mouvement oscillant et elles sont recueillies séparément. Bien qu'il n'y ait que très peu de ces pierres, leur suppression est importante en raison des dommages importants qu'elles causeraient aux machines de meunerie. De plus, si elles étaient moulues ave le grain, les poussières minérales indésirables se mélangeraient à la farine. 1, record 11, French, - tamis%20m%C3%A9tallique

From the milling separator, the grain passes to a gravity separator. This machine separates materials that may be similar in shape and size but that differ in specific gravity, such as wheat and small stones. Uncleaned wheat is "floated" on a metal screen which is oscillating rapidly. The grain moves down the sloping screen to the outlet while the stones are propelled toward the head of the screen by the oscillating movement, and collected separately. Although only a very small percentage of stones may be present, their removal is important since they cause extensive damage to processing machinery. Also, if they are ground along with the wheat, the undesirable fine mineral matter will end up in the flour. 1, record 12, English, - gravity%20separator

En outre, il est important que la récolte se fasse lorsque le taux d'humidité des grains est approprié. Un excès d'humidité des grains peut causer de gros problèmes au cours des traitements suivants, en favorisant l'altération des qualités finales du riz. Par contre, un taux d'humidité trop bas peut provoquer l'égrenage des panicules au moment de la coupe, entraînant des pertes importantes de produit. 2, record 13, French, - %C3%A9grenage

Guide samples are prepared by senior inspectors to serve as comparative samples for interpreting abnormal grading factors present in a particular crop year, usually to reflect damage to grain from a specific area or to reflect a single grading factor. Senior inspectors also review samples of all types of shipments to ensure the accuracy of grain inspections. Each inspection point must maintain grade average samples and submit them periodically to head office for review. Any deviation from normal patterns is investigated, which may involve chemical analysis in the Grain Research Laboratory. 1, record 14, English, - guide%20and%20average%20samples

Des inspecteurs principaux préparent des échantillons témoins qui serviront de points de comparaison pour l'interprétation de facteurs d'agréage anormaux qui peuvent se présenter certaines campagnes; ces échantillons témoins sont habituellement préparés pour montrer les types de dommages qui peuvent être causés au grain provenant d'une région particulière ou tout simplement pour isoler un facteur d'agréage. Des inspecteurs principaux révisent aussi les échantillons prélevés sur tous les types de grains expédiés afin de vérifier la précision des inspections de grain. Chaque point d'inspection doit conserver des échantillons moyens des grades et en envoie périodiquement des prélèvements à l'administration centrale pour étude. Toute anomalie fait l'objet d'une enquête et les échantillons douteux peuvent être soumis à une analyse chimique au laboratoire de recherches sur les grains. 1, record 14, French, - %C3%A9chantillons%20t%C3%A9moins%20et%20%C3%A9chantillons%20moyens
