Recipes for Organic Indigo Vats[. ] Try different combinations or experiment with local plants and fruits. For example, we have found mixing two organic reducing agents, such as henna and fructose, gives a strong indigo vat. These vats give the best results if they are made the day before dyeing.... Remember to cover your vat when not in use. These organic vats were originally developed by Michel Garcia, a botanist and dye chemist with a deep knowledge of how colour behaves on the molecular level. The recipes outlined here were developed by him to create efficient indigo vats using eco-friendly ingredients. 3, record 1, English, - dye%20chemist

[...] le pigment [est] un type particulier de colorant. Le pigment se fixe à la surface de l'objet visé. Le tout après broyage et avec l'aide d'un liant plus ou moins fluide tel que l'huile. Il permet d'obtenir des fards, des peintures ou encore des encres colorés. Autre type de colorant : la teinture. Contrairement au pigment, celle-ci est soluble. 3, record 1, French, - chimiste%20sp%C3%A9cialiste%20des%20teintures

Redoing analyses in different ways in order to try to get the results you want is called data fishing, and folks in the stats biz consider it to be a major no-no(however, people unfortunately do it all too often to verify their strongly high beliefs). By using the wrong data analysis for the sake of getting the results you desire, you mislead your audience into thinking that your hypothesis is actually correct when it may not be. 1, record 2, English, - data%20fishing

In the sales profession, a draw is an incentive paid in advance of performance, such as a draw against future earnings, that typically is used to help salespeople through slow periods. A recoverable draw requires the sales representative to return an unearned amount of the draw or carry forward the unearned amount as a deficit if actual performance results in an earned incentive that is less than the draw provided. Nonrecoverable draws, also known as guarantees because they promise a certain level of incentive pay by the employer, are not expected to be returned, nor is the unearned amount carried forward.(Using Draws Wisely in Your Compensation Plan, Sales & Marketing Management(SAL) ISSN : 0163-7517 Vol : 142, Iss : 9, Aug 1990, p : 92-93.) 2, record 3, English, - non%20recoverable%20draw
