For quite some time, he had been planning to direct an epic movie named Megalopolis, a story about the aftermath and reconstruction of New York City after a mega-disaster, but after the city was hit by the real life disaster of September 11, the project was suddenly seen as being too sensitive.

This system was quite advanced, as it made use of direct sequence spread spectrum ( DSSS ) modulation and forward error correction ( FEC ) techniques to provide 100 kbit / s and 400 kbit / s data channels.

She noted that although most people " hold their belief in reincarnation quite lightly " and were unclear on the details of their ideas, personal experiences such as past-life memories and near-death experiences had influenced most believers, although only a few had direct experience of these phenomena.

This description could be taken as a direct attack on religious belief, quite contrary to the meaning ostensibly intended by the academic use of the term.

Suburban systems of the sprawl type are also quite inefficient for cyclists or pedestrians, as the direct route is usually not available for them either.

Our calculation of the amount of element 43 required to produce their spectrum is quite similar to the direct measurements of natural technetium abundance in uranium ore published in 1999 by Dave Curtis and colleagues at Los Alamos.

Inevitably smaller poleis might be dominated by larger neighbours, but conquest or direct rule by another city-state appears to have been quite rare.

City government is quite simple-there are no city employees and no direct city services.

The direct computation of this integral is quite difficult, but we can simplify the derivation of the result using the divergence theorem:

The direct proof shows why the bounds are quite loose in typical cases: the number 1 to the left of "≥" is replaced by < sup > 2 </ sup > to the right of "≥" whenever the latter exceeds 1.

By the standards of the oaths of allegiance to be found in other British Commonwealth dominions, it was quite mild, with no direct personal Oath to the monarch, only an indirect oath of fidelity by virtue of the King's role in the Treaty settlement as " King in Ireland ", a figurehead position.

After the late 1950s, 16 mm Kodachrome Commercial-originated films ( and Ektachrome Commercial-originated films as well ) were quite often duplicated onto Eastmancolor internegative film, after which these films were printed on Eastmancolor positive print film, as a cost-reduction measure, thereby yielding relatively low-cost prints for direct projection.

The direct attack on the German Historical School lead Schmoller to responded quickly with an unfavourable and quite hostile review of Menger's book.

Their flight is quite strong and direct ; they look triangular-winged and short-tailed in flight.

As it is recursive, it is not quite so direct as Alexander's original matrix method ; on the other hand, parts of the work done for one knot will apply to others.

In contrast to Fatty's rather relaxed parents, Mr and Mrs Hilton are quite strict and often take a dim view of Pip and Bets's sleuthing activities, wishing that Pip especially would direct the same amount of energy into his schoolwork.

This was a quite different rhetoric, a more pragmatic one likely reflecting the reality that the ex-Soviet republics of Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan had substantial Islamic political movements-similar to those in Turkey and Pakistan, relatively modern in tone and willing to participate in the US War on Terrorism to some degree, although not as direct combatants.

The mechanisms for this can be quite varied, ranging from direct subsidy of political parties to government matching funds for certain types of private donations ( often small donations ) to exemption from fees of government services ( e. g. postage ) and many other systems as well.

Trevor Stanley states that, while the origins of the terms Wahhabism and Salafism " were quite distinct " – " Wahhabism was a pared-down Islam that rejected modern influences, while Salafism sought to reconcile Islam with modernism " – they both shared a rejection of " traditional " teachings on Islam in favor of a direct, more puritan interpretation.

Even the " exact " FFT algorithms have errors when finite-precision floating-point arithmetic is used, but these errors are typically quite small ; most FFT algorithms, e. g. Cooley – Tukey, have excellent numerical properties as a consequence of the pairwise summation structure of the algorithms.

Such walls can, however, be quite economical and suitable in some applications ; solid unreinforced masonry walls tend to be low and thick as a consequence of their lack of tensile strength.

Large-scale wildebeest migration is quite likely a consequence of decisions being made by individuals at multiple spatial scales, involving a balance of food abundance, food quality, local density of other wildebeest, social interactions, surface water, perceived predation risk, and culturally ( or possibly genetically ) learned routes and ranges.

A serious consequence of the hostile debate was that Schmoller went so far as to declare publicly that members of the " abstract " school were unfit to fill a teaching position in a German university, and his influence was quite sufficient to make this equivalent to a complete exclusion of all adherents to Menger's doctrines from academic positions in Germany.

Migratory populations are longer-winged than those resident year round, but this cannot be used to delimit subspecies as it is quite obviously is a consequence of differing habits and can be expected to undergo convergent evolution in unrelated populations of this species that just share the same habits.

The microstructures of martensite and bainite at first seem quite similar ; this is a consequence of the two microstructures sharing many aspects of their transformation mechanisms.

The consequence of his disgruntled philosophical wanderings being met with practical events of life, he reverts into dispassionate conformity by the end ; however, Babbitt never quite loses hold of the sentimentality, empathy, and hope for a meaningful life that he has developed.

The structural elements were hollow beams of square cross section made from folded and quite thin sheet aluminum, as a consequence subject to destruction if stepped upon.

Supposedly Ayres had been offered a chance to star in a Kildare television series years before when the medium was quite new, but refused to do so if the program was going to be allowed to have tobacco company sponsorship, then a primary source of television company's revenues, and this project was never made as a consequence of Ayres ' stance.

: In the offence under section 20 of the Offences against the Person Act 1861, the word " maliciously " does import upon the part of the person who unlawfully inflicts the wound or other grievous bodily harm an awareness that his act may have the consequence of causing some physical harm to some other person … It is quite unnecessary that the accused should have foreseen that his unlawful act might cause physical harm of the gravity described in the section, i. e. a wound or serious physical injury.

When the 6008 and 7008 models were introduced the Super 8 format was already losing popularity, and as a consequence, these cameras are quite rare.

These items, and most of the others listed above, seem quite comparable to items whose right of survival is provided for in section 381.

Contrary to the above, the Expositor's Bible Commentary ( Zondervan, 1990 ) says that the language of Daniel, in comparison with the Hebrew and Aramaic texts of the Hellenistic period, " prove quite conclusively to any scholar that the second-century date and Palestinian provenance of the Book of Daniel cannot be upheld any longer without violence being done to the science of linguistics.

This could, for instance, be " side effects " ( above conventional flags ), such as the setting of a register or memory location that was perhaps seldom used ; if this was done via ordinary ( non duplicated ) internal buses, or even the external bus, it would demand extra cycles every time, and thus be quite inefficient.

The situation is further complicated by the traditional uses of the terms parallel and distributed algorithm that do not quite match the above definitions of parallel and distributed systems ; see the section Theoretical foundations below for more detailed discussion.

'" Towards the end of the same essay, Vertov mentions an upcoming project which seems likely to be Man with the Movie Camera, calling it an " experimental film " made without a scenario ; just three paragraphs above, Vertov mentions a scene from " Kino Pravda " which should be quite familiar to viewers of Man with the Movie Camera: the peasant works, and so does the urban woman, and so too, the woman film editor selecting the negative ...."

Given that the vast majority of all emeralds are treated as described above, and the fact that two stones that appear visually similar may actually be quite far apart in treatment level and therefore in value, a consumer considering a purchase of an expensive emerald is well advised to insist upon a treatment report from a reputable gemological laboratory.

All of the above are just rough descriptions ; the precise distinctions vary from language to language, and are often quite complex.

It is quite plausible that Beaumanoir, like many nobles of the time, would have considered himself above the law and entitled to execute a witch in any way that he chose.

The two operas of Schoenberg's pupil Alban Berg, Wozzeck ( 1925 ) and Lulu ( incomplete at his death in 1935 ) share many of the same characteristics as described above, though Berg combined his highly personal interpretation of Schoenberg's twelve-tone technique with melodic passages of a more traditionally tonal nature ( quite Mahlerian in character ) which perhaps partially explains why his operas have remained in standard repertory, despite their controversial music and plots.

: Indices: These are quite apart from the above, their use is for mathematical formalism, see Index notation.

While the definition via velocities of curves is quite straightforward given the above intuition, it is also the most cumbersome to work with.

Another way of highlighting the complaint is to say that in utilitarianism “ there is no such thing as morally permissible self-sacrifice that goes above and beyond the call of duty .” Mill was quite clear about this, “ A sacrifice which does not increase, or tend to increase, the sum total of happiness, it considers as wasted .”

It is quite true, as has been often said, that “ we are all socialists up to a certain point ”; but Mr. Gladstone fixed that point lower, and was more vehement against those who went above it, than any other politician or official of my acquaintance.

Its properties are quite different from those of the set of alums described above.

Given this, it is quite natural and convenient to designate a general sequence a < sub > n </ sub > by by the formal expression, even though the latter is not an expression formed by the operations of addition and multiplication defined above ( from which only finite sums can be constructed ).

It is generally quite low-lying, with an average height above sea level of 15 m, although Central Hill reaches an elevation of 219 metres.
