High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Snits and the various types of body defenders are represented by cardboard chits, each of which features unique artwork. The pieces move across a gameboard which is a cross-section of a Bolotomus's body, consisting of various whimsically-named internal organs connected by narrow tubes which restrict that movement to varying degrees. Three of these organs have holes to the "outside", and it is through these that the Snits enter the board and begin the game. Each of the organs is considered "alive" when manned by a matching chit called a Snorg; the Snit player wins by successfully Kicking (via dice-roll) a certain percentage of Snorgs to death, or by finding "The Spark Of Life" chit, which is...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Tucker Sno-Cat is a tracked vehicle or a family of tracked vehicles for snow conditions. Different models have been used for expeditions in the Arctic and the Antarctic during the second half of the 20th century. It differs from other truck-sized snow vehicles, commonly known as Snowcats, by its use of four independently mounted sets of tracks. While the majority of Tucker Sno-Cats utilized 4 sets of tracks, a few experimental models and early production models used 2 sets of tracks. Initially Tucker Sno-Cats employed 2 front mounted steering skis and two sets of tracks mounted to the rear. However there are at least 3 production models that only employed dual tracks, the small 222 Tucker...

The Sn gg class was a Royal Norwegian Navy class of fast patrol boats (FPB). It might also be classified as a torpedo boat or a missile boat. In Norway this type of vessel is called a missile torpedo boat (MTB). The class was named after its lead vessel, Sn gg, which is a Norwegian word meaning "fast". All of the subsequent names are synonyms of "fast". Six vessels were built during 1970 and 1971 to replace the ageing Rapp class. Designed by Lieutenant-commander (later Captain) Harald Henriksen as a development of the Storm-class. None of the vessels are left in Norwegian service today, they have been succeeded by the Hauk-class and Skjold-class class. Данное издание не является оригинальным....

Snooker is a 1983 sports simulation video game from Visions Software Factory, which simulated the game of snooker on the major home computers of that epoch, including Commodore 64, Commodore VIC-20, ZX Spectrum, Acorn Electron, and BBC Micro. The players take turns to hit the white cue ball against the reds or colors following the rules of Snooker. The strength of the shot and the spin could be selected using the space bar and cursor keys respectively. The limited color selections of the home computers of the time along with the memory sizes meant the user experience was limited compared to more modern implementations.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A Snoopy loop is a term used in the British caving and cave diving community to describe a heavy duty elastic band made from a slice of a car inner tube. They have a wide variety of uses from sealing cuffs of oversuits and collars of boots against the ingress of water, to holding kneepads and elbow pads in place, to securing dive lines to small rocks. When they get lost they are recognizable as common form of litter. They can also come in handy in the case of an accident for holding injured joints very tightly in place. The practice of using Snoopy Loops is believed to have originated in Greece and was spotted by Cave Diving Group members in the seventies. The practice was then propagated in...

In 1954, Lars Larsson, the chief design engineer for a Swedish farm equipment company, AB Westerasmaskiner, decided to develop a tracked vehicle to take him and his brother on fishing trips in the winter. The company put his snow vehicle into production in 1957. It uses a unique steering mechanism called a variator that allows the steering of a tracked vehicle to use a traditional automotive steering wheel instead of levers.

This is done by both individual households and by governments and institutions. In places with light snow, brooms or other light instruments can be used to brush off snow from walks and other surfaces. In colder regions with more precipitation, the main tools of the private snow clearer are the snow shovel, a large lightweight shovel used to push snow and lift it, and the snow scoop, a large and deep hopper-like implement fitted with a wide handle and designed to scoop up a load of snow and slide it on any slippery surface to another location without lifting. Shoveling entails a considerable amount of...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Snow pushers are designed to move snow by pushing it straight ahead. They do this by being constructed with a curved moldboard that lies perpendicular to the direction of travel and a sidewall at either end that keeps the snow contained. For parking lots, runways, etc. this is an improvement on the traditional windrow plowing, which uses an angled plow to move snow to the side. Snow Pushers allow the snow to be moved en masse and completely off site to be piled someplace out of the way. Данное издание не является оригинальным.

The game supports up to two players, with each player taking the part of one of two snowmen Nick and Tom. Each player can throw snow at the enemies. The player must throw snow at each enemy until it is completely covered, when it turns into a snowball. An enemy partially covered in snow cannot move until it shakes it off. Once an enemy has been turned into a snowball the player can roll it. The snowball will re-bound off walls, until eventually shattering against a wall. Any enemies the snowball rolls into are eliminated and other stationary snowballs start rolling when the rolling snowball touches them. Данное...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Apple IIc computer was the very first Snow White design along with the various peripherals and accessories designed for it. Initially Snow White debuted in a creamy off-white color known at Apple as “Fog” but later other products moved to the warm gray “Platinum” color, lighter than the previous Apple “Putty” color, used throughout the Apple product line from 1987 on. Though Hartmut Esslinger favored a bright-white color originally for the IIc (which Jerry Manock successfully argued against, claiming it would attract fingerprints), the Snow White code-name had little to do with color. Rather, Snow White refers to the seven projects code-named after the Seven Dwarves on which the...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Snow grooming is the process to manipulate snow for recreational uses, usually using a snow groomer vehicle. This can be a tractor, truck or snowcat towing specialized equipment to move and manipulate snow. The process is used to maintain ski hills and snowmobile trails by grooming (moving, flattening and compacting) the snow on them. Groomers built for ski slopes are often different from those used to groom snowmobile trails. Groomers like American based Tucker Sno-Cat and European based Pisten Bully build different types of Snowcats for different applications. Данное издание не является оригинальным.

There are now three distinct playing modes: the Story mode, which follows the game plot and uses the classical system of cash prizes by winning the races; the battle mode, which includes multiplayer mode; and the Training mode. There were new additions and changes to the Items and Shots. All of them were redesigned and the Shots were renamed as Weapons. Additions include the Rocket, the Wings and the Whirlwind (see more below). Other changes to the Items and Weapons include the reduction in the freeze time when a character is hit by the Freezing Shot, and the effect of losing coins when hit by a...

Snowcats are often referred to as 'trail groomers' because of their use for grooming ski trails ("pistes") or snowmobile trails.

Others, like the Tucker Sno-Cat and Hagglunds vehicles, have a complex arrangement of four or more tracks. Данное издание не является оригинальным.

It is located in the Snowdon neighbourhood of the borough of Cote-des-Neiges–Notre-Dame-de-Grace in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It is a transfer station between the Orange Line and Blue Line, and is the western terminus of the Blue Line. It was inaugurated on September 7, 1981 with service on the orange line only, though the blue line platforms were built at the same time. At the time it was the western terminus of the Orange Line, taking over from Place-Saint-Henri; it is thus the only station to have been the terminus of two different lines.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Although the idea seems to defy the odds, the main idea of Water Skipping/Watercross is to cross from one point to another on water while riding a snowmobile. It is possible because snowmobiles have wide tracks for traction and flotation in the snow, hitting the water at an acceptable speed and keeping the sled's throttle open, the track keeps the snowmobile on the surface of the water without sinking. If the rider backs out of the throttle or the sled bogs or floods out, the sled will sink. Данное издание не является оригинальным.
