Of the standards surveyed, measurement procedures for evaluating the resolution of a visual display involve luminance modulation or line-width measurements. There is some agreement among the standards that resolution measurements be performed in a darkened room with test patterns displayed at the maximum luminance. For color displays, resolution measurements of tricolor white are usually required, and line width is measured at the full-width-half-maximum of the luminance profile. However, line-width measurement methods vary in several ways. Most standards specify line width to be measured across one-pixel wide lines, while others specify character stroke width to be measured across a variety of text characters of various pixel widths including "M, ""H, "and "m. "Standards intended for testing stand-alone CRTs exclude video amplifier effects on line width by restricting the measurement to raster scan lines. 1, record 4, English, - character%20stroke%20width

Synchronous training is done in real-time with a live instructor facilitating the training. Everyone logs in at a set time and can communicate directly with the instructor and with each other. You can raise your cyber hand and even view the cyber whiteboard. It lasts for a set amount of time -- from a single session to several weeks, months or even years.

The Rocket Assembly/Checkout Facility... The facility consists of six contiguous laboratory modules subdivided into a storage area, a gray room area, and a clean room. The storage area houses spare instrument components and intermittently used ground support equipment. The gray room area contains facilities to clean components before they enter the clean room and equipment used to ship the instrument to WSMR [White Sands Mission Range]. The Class 100 cross-flow clean room is separated from the gray room by an air shower. The clean room contains three major stations : a clean bench for assembly of subsystems; a 12x14-ft optical bench for instrument assembly and electronic test of the instrument subsystems; and a vacuum chamber for vacuum focus and spectroradiometric calibration. The cryogenically pumped vacuum chamber is designed with a 30-cm diameter ultraviolet collimator at one end and a roll-off section that accommodates the entire flight instrument centered in the collimated beam at the other end. 2, record 6, English, - clean%20bench

In North America, white bread is usually made with 2 to 4% fat; in Japan the level may be 6 to 8%. Lard and plastic shortening, although still widely used, have been replaced to a large extent with soy oil or similar products that are fluid at room temperature. When lard is used, the average level in the United States is about 2. 7% while the level of plastic shortening is about 2. 9%. By comparison, the average oil usage is about 2. 1%. This reduction in shortening usage of 25 to 30% has been made possible through the use of dough strengtheners. The weighted average for all shortenings used in U. S. bread production is 2. 3% which is considerably less than the average used 10 to 20 years ago. 3, record 7, English, - plastic%20shortening

If a solid shortening is used in a bread or roll, it can make the product firmer than one made with oil. Following distribution during winter, or in cooler storage conditions, consumers may feel such a product and think it’s stale. Sweet rolls are a little different because they have higher levels of both fat and sugar. Here, instead of oil, an emulsified plastic shortening may be better. 4, record 7, English, - plastic%20shortening

En Amérique du Nord, le pain blanc contient généralement de 2 à 4 % de matières grasses; au Japon, la proportion atteint jusqu'à 6 % ou 8 %. Bien qu'ils soient encore couramment utilisés, le saindoux et les matières grasses fermes (plastiques) ont été remplacés dans une large mesure par l'huile de soja ou des produits similaires qui sont liquides à la température ambiante. Aux États-Unis, l'utilisation de saindoux s'établit en moyenne de 2,7 % du poids en farine et celle de matières grasses fermes, à approximativement 2,9 %. Par comparaison, l'utilisation de l'huile s'établit en moyenne à environ 2,1 %. La diminution de 25 % à 30 % dans l'utilisation des matières grasses a été rendue possible grâce à l'emploi de raffermissants de la pâte.

Thinking characterized by speech in which ideas shift from one subject to another that is completely unrelated or only obliquely related to the first without the speaker's showing any awareness that the topics are unconnected. Statements that lack a meaningful relationship may be juxtaposed, or the person may shift idiosyncratically from one frame of reference to another. When loosening of associations is severe, speech may be incoherent. The term is generally not applied when abrupt shifts in topics are associated with a nearly continuous flow of accelerated speech(as in flight of ideas). Example : Interviewer :"What did you think of the whole Watergate affair?" Subject :"You know I didn’t tune in on that, I felt so bad about it. But it seemed to get so murky, and everybody's reports were so negative. Huh, I thought, I don’t want any part of this, and I don’t care who was in on it, and all I could figure out was Artie had something to do with it. Artie was trying to flush the bathroom toilet of the White House or something. She was trying to do something fairly simple. The tour guests stuck or something. She got blamed because the water overflowed, went down in the basement, down, to the kitchen. They had a, they were going to have to repaint and restore the White House room, the enormous living room. And then it was at this reunion they were having. ’And it's just such a mess and I just thought, well, I’m just going to pretend like I don’t even know what's going on. So I came downstairs and cause I pretended like I didn’t know what was going on, I slipped on the floor of the kitchen, cracking my toe, when I was teaching some kids how to do some double dives".

Pensée caractérisée par un discours où les idées passent d'un sujet à un autre n'ayant aucun rapport ou un rapport lointain, l'un avec l'autre, sans que le locuteur manifeste la moindre conscience de cette absence de relation. Des affirmations sans relations compréhensibles entre elles peuvent être juxtaposées. L'individu peut également passer de manière idiosyncrasique d'un registre de référence à un autre. Lorsque le relâchement des associations est marqué, le discours peut être incohérent. Ce terme n'est généralement pas appliqué lorsque, à des changements brusques de thèmes, est associé un flot rapide presque ininterrompu du discours comme dans la fuite des idées. Exemple : Interlocuteur : « Qu'avez-vous pensé de l'affaire du Watergate?» Patient: «Vous savez, je ne suis pas branché là-dessus. Cela m'a tellement affecté. Mais cela avait l'air si embrouillé et tout le monde avait l'air d'en penser du mal. J'ai pensé en moi-même : je ne veux rien savoir de cela et je me fous de savoir qui était dedans et ce que j'ai compris, c'est qu'Artie avait quelque à voir là-dedans. Artie a essayé de tirer la chasse d'eau des toilettes de la salle de bains de la Maison Blanche, ou quelque chose comme ça. Ce qu'elle a essayé de faire était très simple. Les visiteurs ont été bloqués ou je ne sais quoi. On l'a réprimandée parce que l'eau a débordé et a coulé au rez-de-chaussée dans la cuisine: ils allaient devoir repeindre et restaurer l'énorme salle de séjour de la Maison Blanche. Et puis, c'était à cette réunion qu'ils étaient; et c'était tellement embrouillé que j'ai pensé que j'allais faire comme si je ne savais pas ce qui se passait. Alors je suis descendu et, parce que je faisais comme si je ne savais pas ce qui se passait, j'ai glissé sur le carrelage de la cuisine et je me suis fait mal au pied quand j'apprenais aux gosses à faire un saut périlleux ».

Another advantage of a suspended ceiling is the ease of installing lighting fixtures. If you insert translucent panels in some of the openings, light from the fixtures above will show through, softly lighting the room. These panels-which range from louvered or "eggcrate" styles to plain white frosted panels-can be placed wherever you please. 1, record 12, English, - %5C%22eggcrate%5C%22%20style%20panel

Un des avantages des plafonds suspendus, c'est la facilité avec laquelle, grâce à eux, on peut installer soi-même ses plafonniers. Si vous posez des panneaux translucides dans quelques-unes des ouvertures, ils laisseront passer la lumière et illumineront agréablement la pièce (...) Les modèles sont variés et jolis : à lames, en alvéoles ou blanc givré. 2, record 12, French, - panneau%20alv%C3%A9ol%C3%A9
