Omphalocele(exomphalos) is a developmental defect of the anterior abdominal wall in which the abdominal musculature, fascia, and skin are absent in the midline at the point of insertion of the umbilical cord. Abdominal organs extrude anteriorly through the defect and are covered by a saclike membrane consisting of amnion externally and parietal peritoneum internally. Omphalocele results from failure of the intestine to return to the body cavity after its normal herniation into the umbilical stalk during embryonic life. Omphaloceles vary in size; the defect may be a few centimeters in diameter, or most of the anterior abdominal wall may be lacking. Depending on the size of the defect, small intestine, liver, spleen, and pancreas may be in the sac. 2, record 1, English, - omphalocele

Over the past decade, the wide availability and small size of different types of sensors, together with the decrease in pricing, have allowed the acquisition of a substantial amount of data about a person's life in real time. These sensors can be incorporated into personal electronic devices available at a reasonable cost, such as smartphones and small wearable devices. They allow the acquisition of images, audio, location, physical activity, and physiological signals among other data. With these data, usually denoted as lifelog data, we can then analyze and understand personal experiences and behaviors. This process is called lifelogging. 3, record 2, English, - lifelogging

The adults vary in size with the male having a wing-spread of about 2 centimetres, while the female may at times exceed 2. 5 centimetres. The forewings are dark brown with a number of blackish-brown spots. Approximately 300 eggs are laid by each female, most of them within a few days of mating. Three times as many eggs are laid on sacking as on grain. The mature larva is about 2 centimetres in length, shiny white in colour, with a yellow head. The feeding larva spins a light, closely-woven tube of silk as it eats its way through a food mass. When temperatures are too low, many of the larvae become dormant rather than pupate, extending the larval stage. High relative humidity is a requirement for satisfactory larval growth. At summer temperatures and a relative humidity of approximately 90% the life cycle takes about 100 days. 1, record 6, English, - brown%20house%20moth

La taille de l'adulte varie. Chez le mâle, les ailes ont une envergure d'environ 2 cm tandis que, chez la femelle, l'envergure dépasse parfois 2,5 cm. Les ailes antérieures sont brun foncé et parsemées de taches brun noirâtre. La femelle pond à peu près trois cents œufs, quelques jours après l'accouplement dans la plupart des cas. Elle dépose trois fois plus d'œufs sur les sacs que sur le grain. Au terme de son développement, la larve, d'un blanc brillant et présentant une tête jaune, mesure environ 2 cm de longueur. Elle tisse un fourreau de soie, léger mais serré, à mesure qu'elle creuse son chemin dans la masse des grains pour se nourrir. Lorsque les températures sont trop basses, de nombreuses chenilles connaissent une diapause au lieu de se chrysalider, prolongeant ainsi l'évolution nymphale. La chenille a besoin de conditions d'humidité relative élevée pour se développer de façon satisfaisante. À des températures estivales et à une humidité relative d'environ 90%, le cycle évolutif exige environ cent jours. 1, record 6, French, - %26oelig%3Bcophore%20bronz%C3%A9e

Like the brown house moth, the females vary in size and the larger females lay more eggs. The eggs, dull white in colour, are laid in cracks and crevices and often adhere together. The larva, which requires a relative humidity of at least 80% for development, is about 1. 2 centimetres in length and waxy-white in colour.

The Indian-meal moth has a wing-spread of about 2 centimetres. The forewings are creamy white next to the body, and have a reddish-brown colour with a coppery lustre on the outer two-thirds. The female moth lays about 200 eggs, either singly or in groups, on food material. The larvae are dirty white in colour, often with a greenish or pinkish tint. The newly hatched larvae are almost never seen because of their small size and the fact that they burrow as far as two metres into the grain mass. They normally remain in the grain until they have completed their larval growth. When fully grown they are about 1. 2 centimetres long. In summer their life cycle is about six weeks. 1, record 8, English, - indian%2Dmeal%20moth

No conclusive evidence exists for whether these structures are, or are not, living organisms, and their classification is controversial. 2, record 10, English, - nanobe

Les nanobes ne sont pas des structures cristallines, minérales et sont composés de carbone, d'oxygène et d'azote. Des coupes ultrafines de nanobes montrent l'existence d'une couche extérieure ou d'une membrane pouvant être identifiée à une paroi cellulaire. Celle-ci entoure une région opaque aux électrons correspondant à un cytoplasme et une petit région centrale dense qui pourrait représenter une zone nucléaire. Les nanobes montrent une réaction positive vis-à-vis de trois colorants de l'ADN [acide désoxyribonucléique] (4',6 diamidino-2 phenylindole (DAPI), orange d'acridine et Feulgen), ce qui suggère fortement que les nanobes contiennent de l'ADN. Les nanobes sont capable de contaminer différents milieux et se développent dans des conditions aérobies, à la pression atmosphérique et à température ambiante. Bien que présentant une morphologie différente, les nanobes sont dans la même gamme de dimension que les nanobactéries fossiles controversées décrites par d'autres dans de nombreuses roches ainsi que dans la météorite martienne ALH 84001." 3, record 10, French, - nanobe

A pinwheel starts its life as a snowball, which begins to roll downhill and gains mass. It only takes away the surface layers of the snow and generally indicates warming of the snow surface. As it rolls down the hill and snow surface, it takes on a "swirled" kind of appearance. Pinwheels generally don’t get much bigger than a meter or so. Before the size becomes too big, they come apart. They are not generally a hazard themselves, but more of an indication of warming on the snow surface. Common in the afternoon on sun exposed aspects.

These nuclei may be dust particles with favorable molecular structure or even minute crystals of sea salt. If these ice particles exist in an atmosphere with an excess supply of water vapor(supersaturated air) they will continue to grow. Upon reaching a critical size, they begin to fall. Depending on the conditions they encounter in different layers of air during their descent, they may continue to grow, may stop growing, or may experience a succession of growth patterns.

In general terms, grouting refers to the injection of a suitable binding admixture into the ground as a means to fill voids, consolidate loose formations, stabilize structures, or as an isolating barrier. It can be classified under three main areas in construction applications. a. Cement grouting: A combination of mixtures such as cement/sand/bentonite is used to fill voids and can consolidate coarse soils, sands, gravels and the like. Usually pumped into a drilled bore hole under low to medium pressure or by the tube-et-manchette method. b. Chemical grouting ...c.

Runners and sprues, reject molded parts, and trim from film extrusion and thermoforming operations, represent significant amounts of material that must be dealt with by the manufacturer. Whether the scrap is to be disposed or reused, it is usually put through a size reduction process for easier handling.
