The de-icer actuated by cartridge(DAC) can be used for emergency work on... transmission lines. The DAC is a portable device operated by remote control. It consists of a cylinder-and-piston system that can be suspended from a conductor or ground wire and fired by means of an electronic trigger. Installation from the ground is facilitated by the use of a line thrower. When the cartridge explodes, it generates a mechanical impulse that propagates along the span, breaking the ice instantaneously. 1, record 3, English, - de%2Dicer%20actuated%20by%20cartridge

This Programme incorporated two existing programmes from the World Health Organization, the Expanded Programme on Immunization and the former Programme for Vaccine Development, and a new unit for Vaccine Supply and Quality was established. The Programme thus has terms of reference that span from basic vaccine research, through vaccine production and quality control, to helping ministries of health plan and manage their immunization services and control vaccine-preventable diseases. 2, record 8, English, - Global%20Programme%20for%20Vaccines%20and%20Immunization

The S1 Truss, the first starboard truss segment, was attached to the starboard side of the S0 Truss Oct. 10, 2002. The S1 Truss provides structural support for the Active Thermal Control System, Mobile Transporter and one Crew and Equipment Translation Aid cart. The cart is manually operated by a spacewalker and can also be used as a work platform. The cooling system is like the one in a car radiator except that it uses 99. 9 percent pure ammonia, compared to 1 percent in household products. The Thermal Radiator Rotary Joint rotates the three radiator structures in a 105-degree span either way to keep the three radiators panels in the shade; it also transfers power and ammonia to the radiators. The S1 Truss also has mounts for cameras and lights, as well as antenna support equipment for S-band communications equipment. 11, record 13, English, - S1%20truss

Wireworms, which have a life span of up to 10 years, attack all cereal crops, particularly wheat and spring rye. They are most troublesome in light prairie soils. They may often be held in check by periodic summerfallowing and keeping fallow land clean to destroy the food supply of the long-lived larvae. For immediate and effective control, infested fields are sown with seed treated with an insecticide. 3, record 14, English, - wireworm

Les taupins, qui peuvent vivre dix ans, attaquent toutes les céréales, en particulier le blé et le seigle de printemps; ils causent surtout des ravages dans les sols légers des Prairies. On peut souvent les tenir en échec en pratiquant régulièrement la jachère d'été et en entretenant les jachères afin de détruire les ressources alimentaires des larves, dont la durée de vie est longue. Comme moyen de lutte immédiat et efficace, on peut ensemencer les terres infestées avec de la semence traitée aux insecticides. 4, record 14, French, - larve%20de%20taupin
