    The minim came with a set of procedures for ensuring accurate measurement, specifically, diluting powerful medicines that had previously been measured by the drop, then using a "minimometer" or "minim glass" (graduated pipette) with minim marks at regular intervals.

    Usage of a plastic emitter in drip irrigation was developed in Israel by Simcha Blass and his son Yeshayahu. [6] Instead of releasing water through tiny holes easily blocked by tiny particles, water was released through larger and longer passageways by using friction to slow water inside a plastic emitter.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drop_set

    A tight drop set would remove anywhere from 10% to 25%. Drop sets may be performed either with or without rest periods between sets. Some make a distinction between the two: if the lifter does not rest then these sets are referred to as drop sets, whereas if the lifter does rest between sets then these sets are usually referred to as down sets .

  9. Smith set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_set

    Formally, the Schwartz set is the set such that any candidate inside the set has a strict beatpath to any candidate who defeats them. The Smith set can be constructed from the Schwartz set by repeatedly adding two types of candidates until no more such candidates exist outside the set: candidates that are pairwise-tied with candidates in the set,
