A home run is usually made by hitting the ball out of the playing field, over the wall or fence in fair territory. A ball hit within the park that allows the batter to circle the bases without an error being committed also counts as a home run; it is then called an "inside-the-park home run." 8, record 1, English, - home%20run

Policing takes place in a complex world that requires fast thinking and quick reactions. The profession demands many skills, both mental and physical. To test your suitability, the Ontario Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services, in partnership with the Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police, has developed the Constable Selection System. The System has four tests which determine eligibility for an employment interview :-an aptitude test;-a written communications test;-a physical skills and abilities test; and-a video simulation test. The Physical Readiness Evaluation for Police(PREP) is the name of the physical skills and abilities test.... PREP Test Components. There are three separate components to the PREP : a screening component to ensure your medical readiness and two performance components to assess your physical capability(the Pursuit/Restraint Circuit and the Aerobic Shuttle Run). 1, record 3, English, - Physical%20Readiness%20Evaluation%20for%20Police

Le métier de policier exige [...] de nombreuses aptitudes mentales et physiques. Pour évaluer les vôtres, le ministère de la Sécurité communautaire et des Services correctionnels de l'Ontario, de concert avec l'Association ontarienne des chefs de police, a mis en place le système de sélection des agents de police. Ce système comporte quatre épreuves qui déterminent l'admissibilité à une entrevue d'emploi: - un test d'aptitude; - un test de communications par écrit; - un test d'aptitudes physiques; - un examen à partir d'une simulation vidéo. Le titre de l'examen sur les aptitudes physiques est «Évaluation de l'aptitude physique au métier de policier» (ÉAPP). [...] L'ÉAPP comprend trois parties distinctes : une partie médicale pour vérifier votre aptitude à exercer une activité physique et deux épreuves de performance pour évaluer vos aptitudes physiques (circuit de poursuite/maîtrise et course-navette aérobique). 1, record 3, French, - %C3%89valuation%20de%20l%27aptitude%20physique%20au%20m%C3%A9tier%20de%20policier

The DC motor can be made to run faster than the basic "balancing speed" achieved whilst in the full parallel configuration without any resistance in circuit. This is done by "field shunting". An additional circuit is provided in the motor field to weaken the current flowing through the field. The weakening is achieved by placing a resistance in parallel with the field. This has the effect of forcing the armature to speed up to restore the balance between its magnetic filed and that being produced in the field coils. It makes the train go faster. 2, record 4, English, - field%20shunting

Le shuntage consiste à réduire le bobinage du stator des moteurs à courant continu, diminuant ainsi le champ d'excitation des inducteurs. Conséquence, la courbe effort-vitesse des moteurs subit une déformation qui fait glisser la locomotive vers des vitesses plus élevées et ce tout en gardant la même puissance. Cette opération qui permet de pousser la locomotive à courant continu dans ses derniers retranchements est également utile pour effectuer le démarrage de convoi lourd sans dépasser les limites de courants dans la caténaire. 1, record 4, French, - shuntage%20par%20d%C3%A9rivation

Problem-driven Learning.... the progression of models enables the system to present students with a sequence of problem solving situations that motivate the need for developing particular transformations of their models of circuit behavior. In solving new problems, the students attempt to transform their models of circuit behavior in concordance with the evolution of the system's models. The focus is on having students solve problems on their own, without providing them first with explanations for how to solve them. Only when they run into difficulty, do they request explanations of circuit behavior. 1, record 8, English, - problem%2Ddriven%20learning
