ELASTIC LIGATURE - Plastic ring that ties archwire into bracket or LIGATURE WIRE - Tiny wire that ties archwire into bracket

A pipe is (usually!) made up of three components: a bowl, a shank, and a mouthpiece. The inside of the bowl, where the tobacco goes, is called the "tobacco chamber", the channel that conducts the smoke from the bowl to the shank and ultimately to the mouthpiece (and your mouth) is the "draught hole", and the little end part of the mouthpiece that enters into the shank is the "tenon" (also "peg", in the UK). The story could just go on and on! See similar questions...

Absolutely. In fact, wine grapes are known by a variety of names. For example, let's just look at three of the wines we produce here at Roche: Syrah, Muscat Canelli, and Zinfandel. In certain parts of the globe, Syrah is known as "Shiraz", Muscat Canelli as "Muscat Blanc", and Zinfandel as "Crljenak Kastelanski"...now try saying that one quickly three times in a row. Of course not! But accidents do happen. See similar questions...

A band is a "wrap-around" ring on a back tooth, usually a molar, cemented into position with dental bonding cement. A wire extends from tooth to tooth, held into position by small elastics (or "colors") or metal ligatures. These guide the movement of the teeth. Spacers, or separators, are rubber pieces that are sometimes placed between teeth to create room to place an orthodontic band. Springs, or coils, are sometimes placed on an archwire between brackets to open or close space between teeth. See similar questions...

various times, they've been called grid-connected hybrids, full or strong hybrids, electric, pluggable, gridable and many others. In the past five years, the most prevalent name has been plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs). Objections have come from those who say that this name puts advocates on the defensive to auto industry views that plugging in is bad (Ads for hybrids emphasize that "you don't have to plug it in.").

Only henna leaves have dye, and the highest content is in the leaf petiole. There is no dye in the bark, twigs, or rootstock of Lawsonia inermis, and certainly not different colors such as black. The roots of henna are never harvested for dye, as henna is a small tree that is kept in production for many years. Though henna is grown in many different countries, the henna dye molecule is always the same red orange. See similar questions...

Braces (also called orthodontic appliances) can be as inconspicuous—or as noticeable—as you like. Brackets—the part of the braces that attach to each tooth—are smaller and can sometimes be attached to the back of the tooth, making the brackets less noticeable. Brackets may be made of metal, ceramic, plastic or a combination of these materials. Some brackets are clear or tooth-colored. See similar questions...

Well, I first started calling this "Wind at West Cedar." I still like that name, but it's kind of long and nobody knows where West Cedar street is, even if they walk by it everyday. Then I started calling it "wwwind" which has a nice ring to it, it's easy to remember... but wwwind.org was taken, and while wwwind.net was available, I didn't think that name was very appropriate. So, I settled on cbiwind.org because it was also fairly catchy and memorable plus .org .net and .com were available. See similar questions...

The LeBaron was the top-line production Imperial from 1957 until its demise in 1975. There were no unique roof lines and little exterior trim enhancements for LeBarons from 1957-59. In 1960, that changed with introduction of a limousine-style roof line. Broad wraparound C-pillars and a small rear window gave an elegant appearance and enhanced privacy for the rear passengers. (It did little for driver vision to the rear, however. See similar questions...

Always allow roast to rest 10 to 15 minutes after cooking before slicing. Cover loosely with a tent of aluminum foil. Cover tightly and simmer gently over low heat on top of the range, or in a preheated 325°F oven, or until beef is fork-tender. To test the temperature of the coals, hold your hand over them (where the meat would be). If the heat is so intense that you must pull away in 3 seconds, the coals are hot. Four seconds indicates medium heat. See similar questions...
