•  Degree Confluence Project

  The Degree Confluence Project is a World Wide Web-based all-volunteer project which aims to have people visit each of the integer degree intersections of latitude and longitude on Earth, posting photographs and a narrative of each visit online. Intersections are defined on the horizontal datum WGS 84. The project describes itself as "an organized sampling of the world".

•  Geodashing

  Geodashing is an outdoor sport in which teams of players use GPS receivers to find and visit randomly-selected "dashpoints" (also called "waypoints") around the world. The objective is to visit as many dashpoints as possible. Unlike geocaching, nothing is to be left at the dashpoints; the sole objective is to visit them within the time limit. The first game organized by gpsgames. org ran for two months (June and July 2001); each subsequent game has run for one month.

•  Travel Bug

  A Travel Bug is a registered trademark of Groundspeak, Inc. used to describe a dogtag used in Geocaching. It is moved from cache to cache, and its travels can be logged on the geocaching website (www. geocaching. com). Each travel bug tag is printed with a unique PIN, which is needed to post a log online. Some tags are fastened to an object, such as a plastic figurine, before they are put in a cache. Travel bugs are tracked on the Groundspeak-owned website Geocaching.

•  2,4-Dinitrophenylhydrazine

  2,4-Dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH, Brady's reagent) is the chemical compound C6H3(NO2)2NHNH2. Dinitrophenylhydrazine is relatively sensitive to shock and friction; it is a shock explosive so care must be taken with its use. It is a red to orange solid, usually supplied wet to reduce its explosive hazard. It is a substituted hydrazine, and is often used to qualitatively test for carbonyl groups associated with aldehydes and ketones.

•  Planishing

  Planishing (from the Latin planus, "flat") is a metalworking technique that involves finely shaping and smoothing sheet metal by hammering it against a shaped surface called a planishing stake. Metal workers use planishing to finish shaping and smoothing an object after roughly forming it with other techniques, such as sinking and raising. Planishing is a hand driven process used in auto body repair and sheet metal craft work such as medieval armor production.

•  Modulated neutron initiator

  A modulated neutron initiator is a neutron source capable of producing a burst of neutrons on activation. It is a crucial part of nuclear weapons, as its role is to "kick-start" the chain reaction at the optimal moment when the configuration is prompt critical. Other names are e.g. internal neutron initiator. The initiator is placed in the center of the plutonium pit, and is activated by impact of the converging shock wave.
