David Johansen and the Harry Smiths is the first of two albums David Johansen released with the "Harry Smiths".
 The first of the two albums was released in 2000.
 David Johansen created the album following a folk scene that was taking place in the late 1990s in New York City clubs.
 Inspired by the 1997 reissue of "The Anthology of American Folk Music" (a compilation of 1920s and 1930s country and blues recordings assembled by musicologist Harry Smith), Johansen and a named his band "the Harry Smiths" and recorded and performed songs from, or inspired by, the Anthology.
Cherry Filter (체리 필터) is a South Korean rock group formed in 1997.
 Their unique sound - consisting of emotional ballads, punk rock, rave and trance - prevalent in their last two albums has given them fame across the nation.

England Is Mine is a 2017 biographical drama film, based on the early years of singer Morrissey, before he formed The Smiths in 1982 with Johnny Marr.

Filter is an American industrial rock group formed in 1993 in Cleveland by singer Richard Patrick and guitarist/programmer Brian Liesegang.
 The band was formed after Patrick desired to start his own band after leaving Nine Inch Nails as their touring guitarist.
 Their debut album, "Short Bus", was released in 1995, and ended up going platinum, selling over one million copies, largely due to the success of the band's single "Hey Man Nice Shot."
 After the album, the band would go through the first of many line-up changes, leaving Patrick as the only consistent member across all music releases.
Gene were an English alternative rock quartet that rose to prominence in the mid-1990s.
 Formed in 1993, they were popularly labelled as a Britpop band and often drew comparisons to The Smiths because of their Morrissey-esque lead singer, Martin Rossiter.
 Gene's music was influenced by The Jam, The Smiths, The Style Council and The Clash.
A filter cake is formed by the substances that are retained on a filter.
 The filter cake grows in the course of filtration, becomes "thicker" as particulate matter is being retained.
 With increasing layer thickness the flow resistance of the filter cake increases.
 After a certain time of use the filter cake has to be removed from the filter, e.g. by backflushing.
 If this is not accomplished, the filtration is disrupted because the viscosity of the filter cake gets too high, thus too little of the mixture to be filtered can pass through the filter cake and the filter plugs.
 The specifications of the filter cake dictate the filtration method of choice

The Blaisdell Slow Sand Filter Washing Machine at Yuma, Arizona is a device invented by Hiram W. Blaisdell to wash sand filters used in the treatment of drinking water.
 The machine was built in 1902 at Blaisdell's privately operated waterworks, which treated the muddy water of the Colorado River for local consumption.
 Blaisdell patented the device and marketed it throughout the United States.
 The Yuma filter is now on City of Yuma property, and has been preserved as the first of its kind.
