In the beginning of the BMX movement, kids would strip down their Schwinn Sting Ray bicycles and add knobby tires and perhaps motorcycle handlebars, and in time modify the frames for performance, strength or personal preference. Early BMX bicycle manufacturers, such as R&R Racing Products, Mongoose, Webco and RedLine, eventually created bicycles expressly for the sport. Mongoose can be credited with building the quintessential early BMX bike, featuring a straight-tubed, gusseted frame; reinforced handlebars; Motomag wheels and long crank ...

The five second rule is sometimes called the three-second rule, 10-second rule, or the 15-second rule, to some extent depending on the quality of the food involved or the intoxication level of the individual quoting the rule. For example, in American college dormitories the ten-second rule is often quoted as the "drunk version" of the five-second rule. In addition, there is the 17-minute rule, a humourous observation that the transferrence of dirt and germs takes place regardless of how short ...

Flags can be destroyed by burning or ripping. They can also be defaced, such as with slogans, faeces, or dirt. More generally, flags can be treated disrespectfully, being walked upon, spat upon, or dragged through the dirt. Flags may simply be used improperly: such as being hung upside down or reversed. Finally, flags may be "disrespected", for example by casting scorn upon it, refusing to salute it, and so forth. Toilet paper, doormats, and other such items may also be manufactured bearing the image of a flag upon it, with the intention that the flag will thereby be desecr ...

Dirt

1. Dirt in a garden is a symbol for growth, abundance, and beauty. If you dream of planting a garden, something you’re working on now could blossom into something more successful than you’re even thinking of now.

2. Dirty clothes hint that your body isn’t quite what it should be, and a medical checkup is advised.

3. If someone you know is throwing dirt at you, this person is not to be trusted. Do NOT confide in him or her!

The ferruginous hawk is one of the most adaptable nesters of all of the raptors, and will use trees, ledges, rock or dirt outcrops, the ground, haystacks, nest platforms, power poles, and other man-made structures. Within some broad categories such as cliffs, the variety includes clay, dirt and rock substrates. Tree nests are typically in isolated trees or isolated clumps of trees in exposed locations. Authors differ as to whether ground nests are more successful than tree nests, but they are more susceptible to mammalian predation. Nest loc ...

Kubb is typically played on a rectangular pitch approximately 5m by 8m. Although there are no official rules as to the size of the field, the dimensions can be altered for younger players or to accommodate faster games. Typically the pitch is grass, but kubb could also be played on sand, snow, or dirt. Stakes are driven into the ground at the corners of the pitch. No other markers are used to demark the field's boundries. The narrow ends are called "baselines." The king is placed in the center of the pitch, halfway between baselines. An imaginary line drawn through the king divi ...

Sumps and sump pumps need to be maintained. Some cautious people might say "every year", but every 4 or 5 years is usually enough. If you live in very sandy or muddy area where your pump runs a lot, it might make sense to do this every year. The goal is to clear out the dirt, gravel, and sand from the sump. They are carried in by the water, and accumulate. This drastically shortens the life of the pump and can jam it up completely, burning it out. It can also jam up the check valve, preventing it from opening, and thus preventing wate ...

A Corduroy road or log road is a type of road made by placing sand-covered logs perpendicular to the direction of the road over a low or swampy area. The result is an improvement over impassable mud or dirt roads, yet is a bumpy ride in the best of conditions and a hazard to horses due to loose logs that can roll and shift. This type of road was already constructed in Roman times. Compare puncheon or plank road, which uses hewn boards instead of logs, ...

Chain lubrication is a common problem for cyclists. Liquid lubricants penetrate to the inside of the links and are not easily displaced, but quickly attract dirt. "Dry" lubricants, often containing wax or Teflon, have poor penetrating qualities unless carried in an evaporating solvent, but stay cleaner in use. The cardinal rule for long chain life is never to lubricate a dirty chain, as this washes abrasive particles into the rollers. Chains should be cleaned before lubrication. An alternative approach is to change the (relatively cheap) cha ...
