the tannery, a leather hide is split into 2 layers - top grain and the lower grain or "split." The lower, bottom grain is the flesh piece and may be split one or more times. The lower grain is likely to be used on the outside parts of a piece of furniture.

End grain butcher block tops are built by fusing together the end pieces of wood rails into a classic checkerboard pattern. Edge grain butcher block tops feature parallel wood rails that span that length of the piece. Our edge grain butcher blocks feature full length wood rails with no unsightly butt ends or finger joints. They also feature a true flat surface and uniform thickness throughout.

If a team is below the cap, then their Disabled Player, Bi-Annual, Mid-Level and/or Traded Player exceptions are added to their team salary, and the league treats the team as though they are over the cap. This is to prevent a loophole, in a manner similar to free agent amounts (see question numbers 29, 30, 31, 32). A team can't act like they're under the cap and sign free agents using cap room, and then use their Disabled Player, Bi-Annual, Mid-Level and/or Traded Player exceptions.

The essence of all beer is malted barley...that is, barley (grain) which has been allowed to germinate. Malted barley contains starches which the zymurgist (heh...brewer) converts to sugar by "mashing" it with hot water, then carefully rinsing ("sparging") the mash with more hot water to create a wort (pronounced "wert"), which is raw beer with lots of maltose (malt sugar) and other good stuff. The wort is then boiled and fermented.

The vertical grain is made by standing the bamboo slats on edge. The horizontal grain slats are laid face up, 3 ply, which best shows off the bamboo knots

Internally, the files are the same. Both result in your archive being created in multiple pieces. The primary difference is in where the pieces are located when the archive is created. A spanned archive will always be written to removable media. A split archive will always be written to local storage on your hard drive, rather than removable media.

A window unit is a self-contained packaged air conditioner. All components are housed within the unit. It is installed through an opening in the wall and no inter-piping connection is required. A single split, as it is called, comprises 2 parts that make up a system air conditioner: the outdoor unit (condenser) and indoor unit (Fan coil). The FCU is a cooling coil that cools the room, interconnection piping between the condenser and fan coil is required to run this system.

A split system uses indoor and outdoor components to provide a complete home comfort system. A package unit or self-contained unit requires no external coils, air handlers, or heating units. Leave all interior doors open at least 2 inches if the room does not have its own return air intake vent. Have your heating and cooling system thoroughly cleaned and tuned (not just a check-up) by a reputable company with certified technicians, at least once or twice a year.

A whole grain, such as oats, barley, wheat, millet, brown rice and others contain every part of the grain: the bran (outer layer), the endosperm (middle layer) and the germ (inner layer). Refined grains such as white flour products are stripped of these health-promoting parts.

There is no 'right' answer to this question; many lisp programmers have rolled their own solution in the past, and others are of the view that it should never be necessary, as long as all sequence functions are used with consistent :start and :end arguments. However, a community-based 'standard' was developed in June/July 2001 on comp.lang.lisp; known as SPLIT-SEQUENCE (formerly PARTITION), it works as follows in its simplest form: split-sequence #\Space "A stitch in time saves nine.

After the loss of a tooth, the bone formerly around the tooth is resorbed - often leaving a very narrow ridge of bone. In order to place an implant, the ridge of bone is split as though it were a piece of corrugated cardboard being expanded to provide a wider space between each side. For the upper jaw, this is accomplished at the same time that the implant is placed; the lower jaw requires a second surgical visit approximately three weeks later.

The set collar is more economical, but has less holding power. Also the screw can mar a shaft as it directly fastens to the shaft. The single-split collar has a tangential screw and does not touch the shaft; plus, because it can be compressed, the split collars have about 2 1/2 times the holding power of a set collar.

Packaged systems are "all in one" units. They combine a heating unit (aka furnace) with a cooling system, blower, and all the necessary controls and such needed to make the system run. Package units are large, normally much larger than split systems and are directly connected to your home's duct system. Split systems have separate heating and cooling pieces.

Leather is made from animal skins or hides. The top layer of the hide is the toughest and most durable, but also has small imperfections caused by the animal getting scratched by barbed wire or from insect bites which have healed but remain slightly visible. An important point is that if you see these slight imperfections, it is proof that you are getting authentic Top Grain Leather. They do not weaken the leather.

Grain is present due to the nature of the wood these marks are not defects in the wood and are only natural.

No, there is not. Tests have been done on oil from 9 different countries, each feeding the grain of choice for their area. Feed has been found to affect the color of emu oil but no other differences have been noted.

A live axle means that there is a solid axle and both rear wheels are driven with the same power. A split axle go-kart has the rear axle split into two pieces with the short portion of the axle mounting the drive pulley and providing power to one wheel. Most manufacturers specify the left rear wheel as the driving wheel, therefore making the go-kart turn more sharply to the right than to the left with a split axle.
