Image Curveasy.jpg thumb 200 px right A slide chart is a hand held device, usually of paper, cardboard, or plastic, for conducting simple calculations or looking up information. A circular slide chart is sometimes referred to as a wheel chart or Volvelle . Unlike other hand held mechanical calculating devices such as slide rules and addiator s, which have been replaced by electronic calculators and computer software, wheel charts and slide charts have survived to the present time. There are a number of companies who design and manufacture these devices. Unlike the general purpose mechanical calculators, slide charts are usually devoted to carrying out a particular specialized calculation, or displaying information on a single product or a particular process. For example, the CurveEasy wheel chart displays information related to spherical geometry calculations and the Prestolog calculator is used for cost profit calculations. Another example of a wheel chart is the Planisphere , which shows the location of stars in the sky for a given location, date, and time. Slide charts are often associated with particular sports, political campaigns or commercial companies. For example, a pharmaceutical company may create wheel charts printed with their company name and product information for distribution to medical practitioners. Slide charts are common collectables.

The slide is the part of the weapon on a majority of semi automatic pistol s that moves during the operating cycle and generally houses the firing pin or striker and the extractor, and serves as the Bolt firearm bolt . It is spring loaded so that once it has moved to its rearmost position in the firing cycle, spring tension brings it back to the starting position chambering a fresh cartridge during the motion provided that the magazine firearms magazine is not empty. Through the principles of recoil operation recoil or Blowback arms blowback operation, the slide is forced back with each shot. Generally, this action serves three purposes ejecting the spent casing, cocking the hammer or striker for the next shot, and loading another cartridge into the chamber firearms chamber when the slide comes forward. Once the magazine firearms magazine is empty, the slide will lock back, released only when the slide stop is depressed if a new magazine firearms magazine is inserted before the slide stop is depressed then a new cartridge will be chambered. Some handguns also utilise the slide stop as a means of releasing the slide , when the slide stop is held upwards for purposes such as field stripping eliminating the need for any further lock mechanisms and the room that these may use inside the gun. Automatically cocking the hammer or striker is an important function of Trigger firearms double action single action pistols. However, some semi auto pistols are Trigger firearms double action only , and are designed to omit this step cocking the hammer or striker .

Unreferenced date December 2009 Orphan date February 2009 Bertlemann slide , or bert , is a skateboarding trick where the skateboarder slides on the wheels of his skateboard . A bert is usually performed on banks or transitions. When performing a bert the skateboarder crouches down while doing a frontside carve, plants his front hand on the ground and extends his back foot and torso making the back wheels slide out. After the slide the skateboard has made a 180 degree sweeping turn and the skateboarder pushes himself up and continues back to the direction where he came from. When performed in a transition it is possible to convert a bertlemann slide in to a grind by timing the slide so that during the apex of the sweep the back truck hits the coping. A bertlemann was originally a simple turn planted hand that did not involve sliding. It was named after Larry Bertlemann , a surfer who first performed the trick on a surfboard, by the Z Boys , who imitated Bertlemann s style on skateboards and ended up creating this trick.

The most recent reference is quoted in the text here. ref and contains a volume of material of about 1 cubic kilometer. Geologic History Geologic evidence supports the view that the slide occurred 13,000 to 15,000 years ago as the result of undercutting which occurred during the Missoula Floods associated with the retreat of glaciers during the last ice age . Water flowing through the Channeled Scablands split into two streams just upstream of the Corfu Slide, with part flowing to the east to pass over the low end of the Saddle Mountains and part flowing westward to pass through Sentinel Gap in the Saddle Mountains. The force of the water diverted to the west impinged on the base of the Corfu Slide area, causing erosion. At least some of the slide occurred before the final Missoula Floods as the older landslide debris has been eroded and smoothed by water flow. ref name Lewis cite book author Lewis, S. W. Baker, V.
