But even for them it remains a museum, or perhaps it would be more accurate to say a tomb, a tomb in which Persia lies well preserved but indeed dead.

Actually it would be more accurate to say that the leader of the alliance now has swung fully behind the British policy of seeking to achieve a neutral Laos via the international bargaining table.

This behavior is more `` veridical '' -- or true -- than other testing behavior for some types of evaluation, and so can give quick and accurate estimates of complex functioning.

Conversely, if he gives a heavy rating to his own reading, and finds more accurate facts in it than in the others, a point is chalked up for the intrinsic, objective meaningfulness of this type of mediumistic material.

Later, more accurate measurements revealed that this current is 0. 99985 A.

A slightly more accurate compensated version performs the full naive algorithm on the residuals.

Although, as of 2009, none of the extrasolar planets detected by ground-based astrometry has been verified in subsequent studies, astrometry is expected to be more accurate in space missions that are not affected by the distorting effects of the Earth's atmosphere.

" The more accurate " amarant " is an archaic variant.

Across several centuries of testing, the predictions of astrology have never been more accurate than that expected by chance alone.

Lastly and most importantly, the precision in mimicking Cuyp ’ s style by his follower Abraham van Calraet and their contentious signatures makes it all the more difficult to determine which paintings are genuinely that of Cuyp and which ones are actually accurate reproductions in his style.

BCD's main virtue is a more accurate representation and rounding of decimal quantities as well as an ease of conversion into human-readable representations.

It is still not clear how far Orkney ’ s advance was planned only as a feint ; according to historian David Chandler it is probably more accurate to surmise that Marlborough launched Orkney in a serious probe with a view to sounding out the possibilities of the sector.

Much of this debate relates to the importance of distinguishing history and fiction within biblical texts, as Berlin argues, in order to gain a more accurate understanding of the history of the Israelite people.

The dry press method is similar to mud brick but starts with a much thicker clay mix, so it forms more accurate, sharper-edged bricks.

The DSM-V, to be published in 2013, will likely include further and more accurate sub-typing.

This was subsequently exposed as a hoax and has been replaced on the source web site with more accurate information.

Contemporary Christian theologians have provided explanations for " born from above " being a more accurate translation of the original Greek word transliterated anōthen.

In 1981, the PRK gave the official population figure as nearly 6. 7 million, although approximately 6. 3 million to 6. 4 million is probably more accurate.

When machine translation ( also known as mechanical translation ) failed to yield accurate translations right away, automated processing of human languages was recognized as far more complex than had originally been assumed.

Assuming a fixed sample size, the technique gives more accurate results when most of the variation in the population is within the groups, not between them.

Structurally it is more accurate to view them as polyhydroxy aldehydes and ketones.

When applied to the simplest two-electron molecule, H < sub > 2 </ sub >, valence bond theory, even at the simplest Heitler-London approach, gives a much closer approximation to the bond energy, and it provides a much more accurate representation of the behavior of the electrons as chemical bonds are formed and broken.

* The prediction of the molecular structure of molecules by the use of the simulation of forces, or more accurate quantum chemical methods, to find stationary points on the energy surface as the position of the nuclei is varied.

A more accurate description of how the temperature near the car varies over time would require an accurate model of how the temperature varies at different altitudes.

Here there may be an analogy with cancer: we can detect cancers by their rapidly accelerating growth, determinable only when related to the more normal rate of healthy growth.

Studies are more likely to be considered sound if they use theoretical tools found in archaeology like analogy and homology and if they can demonstrate an understanding of accuracy and precision found in astronomy.

An expanding universe generally has a cosmological horizon which, by analogy with the more familiar horizon caused by the curvature of the Earth's surface, marks the boundary of the part of the universe that an observer can see.

Kraepelin, on the basis on the dream-psychosis analogy, studied for more than 20 years language disorder in dreams in order to study indirectly schizophasia.

Kaisertum might literally be translated as " emperordom " ( on analogy with " kingdom ") or " emperor-ship "; the term denotes specifically " the territory ruled by an emperor ", and is thus somewhat more general than Reich, which in 1804 carried connotations of universal rule.

In most real-world applications such as the one above, the naïve inductive analogy is flawed because each building permit will not be evaluated the same way ( for example, the more religious structures in a community, the less likely a permit will be granted for another ).

At higher Reynolds number, the analogy between mass and heat transfer and momentum transfer becomes less useful due to the nonlinearity of the Navier-Stokes equation ( or more fundamentally, the general momentum conservation equation ), but the analogy between heat and mass transfer remains good.

In this case, the analogy applies both to the form of the words and to their meaning: in each pair, the first word means " one of X ", while the second " two or more of X ", and the difference is always the plural form-s affixed to the second word, signaling the key distinction between singular and plural entities.

The same analogy can be made with B-trees with larger orders that can be structurally equivalent to a colored binary tree: you just need more colors.

But the best and certainly a more nearly contemporary analogy is with Rosa Parks ' refusal to move to the back of the bus in Montgomery, Alabama, in December 1955, which sparked the modern civil rights movement.

However, present observations cannot exclude the possibilities that the universe has more dimensions and that its spacetime may have a multiply connected global topology, in analogy with the cylindrical or toroidal topologies of two-dimensional spaces.

It is a speculative, non-rigorous argument, that relies on an analogy or in intuition, that allows to achieve a result or approximation to be checked after with more rigor, otherwise the results are of doubt.

But in an ergative – absolutive language like Dyirbal, " I " in the transitive I hug him would take the ergative case, but the " I " in I was hugged would take the absolutive, and so by analogy the antipassive construction more closely resembles * was hugged me.

" American sociologist James Q. Wilson encapsulated this argument as the Broken Window Theory, which asserts that relatively minor problems left unattended ( such as litter, graffiti, or public urination by homeless individuals ) send a subliminal message that disorder in general is being tolerated, and as a result, more serious crimes will end up being committed ( the analogy being that a broken window left unrepaired shows an image of general dilapidation ).

Such rhetorical devices, discussed in more detail below, are: " ignoring the question " to divert argument to unrelated issues using a red herring ; making the argument personal ( argumentum ad hominem ) and discrediting the opposition's character, " begging the question " ( petitio principi ), the use of the non-sequitur, false cause and effect ( post hoc ergo propter hoc ), bandwagoning ( everyone says so ), the " false dilemma " or " either-or fallacy " in which the situation is oversimplified, " card-stacking " or selective use of facts, " false equivalence ", and " false analogy ".

In more advanced physics, the field line analogy is dropped and the magnetic flux is properly defined as the component of the magnetic field passing through a surface.

This argument has become less relevant given that most ladder logic programmers have a software background in more conventional programming languages, and in practice implementations of ladder logic have characteristics, such as sequential execution and support for control flow features, that make the analogy to hardware somewhat inaccurate.

The Stanford University Press website gives a much more thorough description, including the following more informative blurb by Adrienne Harris of NYU: " Kaja Silverman's thesis, pursued over centuries of artistic work and thought, is that it is in the experience of analogy that an authentic approach to mortality is possible.

Philosophers try to build knowledge on more than an inference or analogy.

In fact, in this analogy, the only way that a green marble is likely to win is if more than sixty percent of the voters prefer green.

While most competent English speakers will immediately give the right answer to the analogy question ( sole ), it is more difficult to identify and describe the exact relation that holds both between hand and palm, and between foot and sole.

It was commonly attributed to Homer, as by Aristotle ( Poetics 13. 92 ): " His Margites indeed provides an analogy: as are the Iliad and Odyssey to our tragedies, so is the Margites to our comedies "; but the work, among a mixed genre of works loosely labelled " Homerica " in Antiquity, was more reasonably attributed to Pigres, a Greek poet of Halicarnassus, in the massive medieval Greek encyclopedia called Suda.
