Although Martin enjoyed traveling and performing onstage with Menudo, he found the band's busy schedule and strict managing to be exhausting and later reflected that the experience " cost " him his childhood.

Although Jim did not beat the competition, it performed well enough to secure itself that spot on the 2003 fall schedule.

Although project management software can show schedule dependencies as lines between activities, displaying a large number of dependencies may result in a cluttered or unreadable chart.

Although the two-legged format was kept until 1997, the Super Cup was decided in one single match because of schedule issues or political problems in 1984, 1986, and 1991.

Although several theories of the ultimate cause of the singer's death persist to this day ( including a few rather sinister ones ), given what is now known about cardiovascular disease, it seems likely that by the time of his death Vysotsky had an advanced coronary condition brought about by years of tobacco, alcohol and drug abuse, as well as by the stress of persecution and of the grueling work schedule.

Although at the time the possibility remained that he may have continued to run a limited schedule after the 2005 season — as semi-retirees Bill Elliott and Terry Labonte also have done, Wallace's current broadcasting contract forbids him from doing so.

Although the excavation crew was under great pressure to keep the pace of work on schedule, Kelly persuaded his supervisors to allow sufficient excavation to remove about 8½ feet of prow and keel with three of the hull's ribs.

Although still popular, Green Acres was canceled after six seasons as part of CBS ' " rural purge ", the network's attempt to draw the younger audiences advertisers desired by updating its schedule with more urban, contemporary-themed shows.

Although there is typically no midfield logo when both Pitt and the Steelers are in season, both teams have applied their logo if the field's schedule allows for a sufficient break to remove or apply the other team's logo for that team's next upcoming game.

Although shambolic at times, this schedule turned out on occasions to be more popular than former programming ( although not what they would have been be allowed to broadcast under any other circumstances ).

Although it was dropped from the annual schedule in the early years of the new millennium, it was revived in 2004, and is now contested each year.

Although not legendary upon being named, the band has grown into its own shoes over the last several years due to a grueling tour schedule spanning the globe.

Although a series of emergency actions was enforced to resolve these problems with minimum impact on the VST schedule, the telescope suffered some delays.

Although WMAP provided very accurate measurements of the great angular-scale fluctuations in the CMB ( structures about as broad in the sky as the moon ), it did not have the angular resolution to measure the smaller scale fluctuations which had been observed by former ground-based interferometers.

Although Proust proved his theory by accurate measurements, his theory was not immediately accepted partially due to Berthollet's authority.

Although digital representations are discrete, the information represented can be either discrete, such as numbers and letters or continuous, such as sounds, images, and other measurements.

Although the metre is now defined as the path length travelled by light in a given time, the practical laboratory length measurements in metres are determined by counting the number of wavelengths of laser light of one of the standard types that fit into the length, and converting the selected unit of wavelength to metres.

Although conversion from wavelengths to metres introduces an additional error in the overall length due to measurement error in determining the refractive index and the frequency, the measurement of frequency is one of the most accurate measurements available.

Although the scale statement is nominal it is usually accurate enough for all but the most precise of measurements.

Although von Neumann's projection postulate is often presented as a normative description of quantum measurement, it was conceived by taking into account experimental evidence available during the 1930s ( in particular the Compton-Simon experiment has been paradigmatic ), and many important present-day measurement procedures do not satisfy it ( so-called measurements of the second kind ).

Although wavelength dispersive spectrometers are occasionally used to scan a wide range of wavelengths, producing a spectrum plot as in EDS, they are usually set up to make measurements only at the wavelength of the emission lines of the elements of interest.

Although ΔA is usually measured, for historical reasons most measurements are reported in degrees of ellipticity.

Although extreme individual measurements regress toward the mean, the second sample of measurements will be no closer to the mean than the first.

Although these parameters can be measured in principle, such measurements are difficult and require very specialized equipment.

Although his initial laboratory measurements of closure phase had been done at optical wavelengths, he foresaw greater potential for his technique in radio interferometry.

Although measurements between whole hands are usually expressed in what appears to be decimal format, the subdivision of the hand is not decimal but is in base 4, that is, subdivisions after the radix point are in quarters. Thus, a horse 62 inches high, precisely between 15 and 16 hands, is not 15. 5, but rather is 15. 2 hands high: likewise, 64 inches high is not 15. 4, but rather is 16. 0.

Although the influence of significant others on individuals was long theorized, the first actual measurements of the influence of significant others on individuals were made by Archie O. Haller, Edward L. Fink and Joseph Woelfel at the University of Wisconsin.

Although height is relative to a plane of reference, most measurements of height in the physical world are based upon a zero surface, known as sea level.

Although this battle ensign is in a remarkable state of preservation, its very large size and delicate condition has precluded any up-close measurements, so its various details and dimensions are unavailable.

Although qualitative assessments such as speech interference evaluations by trained speakers and listeners can be useful, accurate quantitative measurements are often more difficult to obtain.

Although there appears to be a size overlap between small male goshawks and large female Cooper's Hawks, morphometric measurements ( wing and tail length ) of both species demonstrate no such overlap, although weight overlap can occur due to variation in seasonal condition and food intake at time of weighing.

Although Mersenne had made a rough determination of sound frequencies as early as the 17th century, such measurements did not become scientifically accurate until the 19th century, beginning with the work of German physicist Johann Scheibler in the 1830s.

Although such instrumentation and examinations are widely used in breath clinics, the most important measurement of bad breath ( the gold standard ) is the actual sniffing and scoring of the level and type of the odor carried out by trained experts (" organoleptic measurements ").

Although comparison measurements from double beam instruments are easier and more stable, single beam instruments can have a larger dynamic range and are optically simpler and more compact.

Although WMAP provided very accurate measurements of the large angular-scale fluctuations in the CMB ( structures about as large in the sky as the moon ), it did not have the angular resolution to measure the smaller scale fluctuations which had been observed using previous ground-based interferometers.

Although pulmonary arterial pressure can be estimated on the basis of echocardiography, pressure measurements with a Swan-Ganz catheter provides the most definite assessment.
