... Assystem City Car... is remarkably easy to park, and not only because of its compact dimensions(3. 60 m long, 1. 60 m wide and 1. 60 m tall), or its light weight(only 600 kg), but also because it has three axles, a central one, with two wheels, and one wheel in each extreme of the car(front and end). These single wheel axles are the ones responsible for moving and turning the Assystem City Car. The front wheel is powered by an electrical engine with 20 kW(about 27 cv), which can push the car to 50 km/h of top speed and has 30 km of autonomy, basically what regular people need to go to work and back home every day. For the roads, there is a little combustion engine that delivers 60 cv in the rear axle. It can lead the vehicle to a top speed of 130 km/h and, with its 30 l fuel tank, can carry the Assystem City Car to up to 600 km. Both engines can be used together, what turns this car into a hybrid. This vehicle, albeit small, can carry up to five people and their luggage. It has a low gravity center, what enhances dynamics, its oval shape prevents serious accident consequences and, when visibility is low, a screen takes the place of the regular windshield and shows the driver infrared images of the road, guiding him/her safely to destination. 1, record 2, English, - Assystem%20City%20Car

Assystem City Car [...] Les innovations portent notamment sur l'interface homme-machine. Les commandes des fonctions du véhicule sont regroupées sur un écran tactile situé sur une console centrale. Des menus contextuels permettent d'accéder au contrôle des organes et au système multimédia. Les éléments de confort comprennent radio, GPS [Global Positioning Systems], téléphonie et vidéo. Assystem a développé intégralement le logiciel de restitution de l'environnement extérieur, grâce aux 4 caméras externes et exploité le concept de «réalité augmentée» pour un affichage plus visible des informations d'aide à la conduite et de sécurité. Le véhicule se veut «communiquant», puisqu'il est équipé d'un accès à Internet, téléphone, TV numérique, lecteur DVD et MP2. Le véhicule se veut en outre respectueux de l'environnement, à travers deux éléments prinicipaux : - une motorisation hybride qui permet d'économiser de l'énergie [;] - une structure «dual frame», c'est-à-dire que le véhicule est doté d'une coque modulaire indépendante du chassis porteur en aluminium qui facilite le recyclage et répond déjà aux normes européennes devant entrer en vigueur en 2008 qui prévoient que les véhicules doivent être conçus pour être très recyclables, avec 85 % d'éléments recyclables, 10 % d'éléments valorisables, et seulement 5 % d'éléments non réexploitables. 2, record 2, French, - Assystem%20City%20Car

The problem comes in making the decision to play games straight through the trip, or take a day off in the middle of the week. I have always believed that, at this time in the season, we need to play games. I’m always afraid to take a day off because if we get rained out a day before our day off, or a day after the rest day, we would be sitting with two days off. That is too much time away from the diamond for the field players, and too much rest time when we can get the necessary repetitions outside. 4, record 4, English, - rest%20day

Road Call Counts(administered by the Canadian Wildlife Service, Environment Canada) are especially suitable for volunteers who would like to participate in an amphibian survey, but don’t live in a rural area with frogs and toads calling near their home. Survey routes comprising 10 stops located 0. 8 km apart, for a total of 7. 2 km are selected along quiet two-lane roads where listening will not be affected by traffic, aircraft, factory or machinery noise. Volunteers are asked to listen at each stop for three minutes and to estimate the density of each amphibian species calling. Over many years, this study indicates where amphibians breed and whether they are declining in occurrence. 1, record 7, English, - Road%20Call%20Counts

L'on choisit des trajets comprenant 10 arrêts situés à 0,8 km de distance, pour une longueur totale de 7,2 km, le long de routes tranquilles à deux voies, où l'écoute ne sera pas affectée par le bruit de la circulation, des avions, des usines ou de la machinerie. On demande aux bénévoles d'écouter durant trois minutes à chaque arrêt et d'estimer la densité du coassement de chaque espèce d'amphibien. Au fil des ans, cette étude permet d'indiquer où les amphibiens se reproduisent et où leur nombre décline. 1, record 7, French, - Relev%C3%A9%20des%20amphibiens%20%2D%20Bordure%20de%20chemins
