A wiperless windshield is a windshield that uses a mechanism other than wipers to remove snow and rain from the windshield. The concept car Acura TL features a wiperless windshield using a series of jet nozzles in the cowl to blow pressurized air onto the windshield.
Half sibling A half sibling (half brother or half sister) is a sibling with one shared biological or adoptive parent. A half sibling that shares the same mother (but different fathers) is known as a uterine sibling, whereas one that shares the same father is known as an agnate sibling.
In the horse breeding industry, the term half-brother or half-sister only describes horses which have the same dam, but different sires. Horses with the same sire but different dams are simply said to be by the same sire, and no sibling relationship is implied.
