The Mouse and the Motorcycle is a children’s novel written by Beverly Cleary and published in 1965.
The story features a mouse named Ralph who lives in a somewhat run-down inn in a mountain resort area with many other mice from his extended family. Ralph interacts with a young boy named Keith, who gives Ralph a toy motorcycle. Keith teaches Ralph that in order to make the motorcycle go, he has only to make the same motorcycle sounds Keith makes while playing with it. Ralph is soon able to ride the motorcycle, which becomes his trademark until the end of the third book in the series. In the novel, Ralph helps to save Keith during an illness by delivering an aspirin to him. Keith is not seen again in the sequels of the story. Each book features a different boy as a new friend for Ralph.
Churchill Films produced an adaptation of The Mouse and the Motorcycle directed by Ron Underwood. The film was distributed by Strand VCI Entertainment/Strand Home Video.

A turbo timer is a device designed to keep an automotive engine running for a pre-specified period of time in order to automatically execute the cool-down period required to prevent premature turbo wear and failure. After a period of driving when a turbocharger has been working hard, it is important to let the engine run at idle speed for a period of time, allowing the compressor assembly to cool from the lower gas temperatures in both the exhaust and intake tracts. At the same time the lubricating oil from the engine is able to circulate properly so the turbine won’t burn the lubricating oil that would otherwise be trapped within the charger with the turbine rotating at high speed. With regard to modern automotive turbochargers, the need for a turbo timer can be eliminated by simply ensuring the car does not produce any ‘boost’ (during driving) for several minutes prior to the ignition being shut off.

It may describe a mid-air kick in which both legs are swung or kicked out in different directions, to strike two opponents simultaneously or in rapid succession.

This move is also well-known in the professional wrestling world among many wrestlers and fans, however the move is done differently compared to the versions above. The attacker jumps (from a standing or running position) using one leg for momentum and drives the other leg into the back of the head and the neck of the opponent, forcing them face first into the ground. Throughout his career, Booker T, a former superstar in WWE, is credited to having popularizing the move. Various other wrestlers who uses this technique, such as former WWE superstar Bull Buchanan and current TNA wrestler Ron Killings, have adopted it as finishers as well.
