This and other fears of the solar system have disappeared gradually, first, with the Ptolemaic system and its built-in concept of periodicity and then, more firmly, with the Newtonian innovation of an universal force that could account quantitatively for both terrestial and celestial motions.

In spite of the dreams of the host for oneness in the group, the Af incoming messages for each guest overload his receiving system beyond comprehension if N exceeds about six.

In any social system in which communications have an importance comparable with that of production and other human factors, a point like f in Figure 2 would ( other things being equal ) be the dwelling place for the community leader, while e and h would house the next most important citizens.

The problem is rather to find out what is actually happening, and this is especially difficult for the reason that `` we are busily being defended from a knowledge of the present, sometimes by the very agencies -- our educational system, our mass media, our statesmen -- on which we have had to rely most heavily for understanding of ourselves ''.

This is necessary for a sounder collective defense system.

It is possible that international organization will ultimately supplant the multi-state system, but its proper function for the immediate future is to reform and supplement that system in order to render pluralism more compatible with an interdependent world.

Does the organization show an affinity for a foreign government, political party or personality in opposition or preference to the American system??

And just how far can the Legislature go toward setting up a self-insurance system for the state in the midst of a governor's race ''??

The education program for retarded children conducted by the East Greenwich school system has pupils from at least one neighboring community.

The arguments advanced by those individuals and groups who oppose the system in force and who would drastically curtail or do away entirely with hospital care for the non-service-connected case, seem to be coldly impractical and out-of-step with the wishes of the general public.

An adequate system of VA hospitals is better equipped to care for the veterans than any 50 state hospitals.

The highway system is an agency of government, and when it grinds up 40,000 Americans every year the government is destroying its own taxpayers, which is obviously a silly thing for any government to do.

Was it the party's intention, for example, to abolish gradually the kolkhoz system and replace it by uniformly wage-earning kolkhozes, i.e., state farms ( which were, moreover, to be progressively `` urbanized '' )??

Behind were privies, for there was no sewage system.

The Farm Credit Administration, an independent agency located within the Department of Agriculture, supervises and coordinates a cooperative credit system for agriculture.

The system is composed of three credit services, Federal Land Banks and National Farm Loan Associations, Federal Intermediate ( short-term ) Credit Banks, and Banks for Cooperatives.

The credit provdied by the first two services in the system outlined above is primarily for general agricultural purposes.

This condition will undoubtedly continue until such time as a state uniform system of evaluation is established, or through mutual agreement of the local assessing officials for a method of standard assessment practice to be adopted.

There we held `` that the statutory scheme for review, within the selective service system, entitles [ conscientious objectors ] to no guarantee that the FBI reports must be produced for their inspection ''.

Because administration of the forest highway system is a responsibility of the Secretary of Commerce with maintenance provided by the States and counties, this Development Program for the National Forests does not include estimates of the funds needed to maintain the forest highway system nor to construct the additions to it that are needed.

In this type of system, a high loop gain is desirable because it provides a fast response time.

small system of open-wire lines, microwave radio relay links, and a few radiotelephone communication stations ; mobile-cellular service is growing fast

The puzzling phenomenon of two individuals being exposed to the same evidence and being able to reach different conclusions, has been frequently explained ( particularly by Daniel Kahneman ) by reference to a ' bounded rationality ' - that is most judgments are made by fast acting heuristics ( system 1 ) that work well in every day situations, but are not amenable to decision making about complex subjects such as climate change.

Before the advent of fast computing machines, solving a dynamical system required sophisticated mathematical techniques and could be accomplished only for a small class of dynamical systems.

These include fast heart beat and symptoms of palpitations, nervous system tremor such as of the hands and anxiety symptoms, digestive system hypermotility, unintended weight loss, and ( in " lipid panel " blood tests ) a lower and sometimes unusually low serum cholesterol.

Hyperbolas arise in practice in many ways: as the curve representing the function in the Cartesian plane, as the appearance of a circle viewed from within it, as the path followed by the shadow of the tip of a sundial, as the shape of an open orbit ( as distinct from a closed and hence elliptical orbit ), such as the orbit of a spacecraft during a gravity assisted swing-by of a planet or more generally any spacecraft exceeding the escape velocity of the nearest planet, as the path of a single-apparition comet ( one travelling too fast to ever return to the solar system ), as the scattering trajectory of a subatomic particle ( acted on by repulsive instead of attractive forces but the principle is the same ), and so on.

These were intended to be supplied by external hardware in order to invoke a corresponding interrupt-service routine, but were also often employed as fast system calls.

Other features were one of the first hardware-implementations of a multiplication instruction in an MPU, full 16-bit arithmetic, and an especially fast interrupt system.

Microcontrollers must provide real time ( predictable, though not necessarily fast ) response to events in the embedded system they are controlling.

IPC calls under L4 on a 486DX-50 take only 5μs, faster than a UNIX syscall on the same system, and over 20 times as fast as Mach.

22 March 2006: in terms of a Memorandum of Understanding signed by Nigeria ’ s federal Government on 16 March, the Guangdong Xinguang International Group is to construct a revolutionary “ fast ” rail ( RFR ) system from Lagos to the capital Abuja ( where there is no existing railway ) as well as light rail lines to the Murtala Mohammed International Airport from Lagos city and to Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport from the Abuja city centre.

Six fast legs, four well developed folding wings, fairly good eyes, long, well developed antennae ( olfactory ), an omnivorous digestive system, a receptacle for storing sperm, a chitin-based exoskeleton that could support and protect, as well as a form of gizzard and efficient mouth parts, gave it formidable advantages over other herbivorous animals.

On the one hand, a message revoking a public key certificate should be spread as fast as possible, while on the other hand, parts of the system might be rendered inoperable before a new key can be installed.

In a sequence from the 1968 film Baisers volés ( Stolen Kisses ), François Truffaut shows the fast transportation of a letter through the underground pneumatic tubes system in Paris.

The experiential system is fast and emotion-driven.

The response time of any computer system must be fast enough to be useful for control ; the required speed varying according to the nature of the process.

In contrast, a non-real-time system is one that cannot guarantee a response time in any situation, even if a fast response is the usual result.

The Governors and London therefore set in motion a gradual process of establishing a Westminster system in the colonies, not so fast as to get ahead of population or economic growth, nor so slow as to provoke clamouring for revolutionary change as happened in America.

It spawned a long running franchise, known for its fast paced control system and innovative counter attacks.

They were riding fast two-wheeled chariots powered by horses, a system of weaponry developed earlier within the context of plains warfare.

* Presto ( operating system ), a fast Linux-based OS by Xandros

The reports at the time ( and since ) indicated that keeping the system light would require high temperature, densely packed designs, such as fast metal cooled reactors or hexagonal pin fueled, high temperature gas cooled reactors.

The combination is surprisingly fast, considering that it runs on an expressly low cost, 8-bit computer system.
