At this moment he was unfortunately called out by a person on business from Porlock, and detained by him above an hour, and on his return to his room, found, to his no small surprise and mortification, that though he still retained some vague and dim recollection of the general purport of the vision, yet, with the exception of some eight or ten scattered lines and images, all the rest had passed away like the images on the surface of a stream into which a stone had been cast, but, alas!

The passage continues with a famous account of an interruption: " At this moment he was unfortunately called out by a person on business from Porlock, and detained by him above an hour, and on his return to his room, found, to his no small surprise and mortification, that though he still retained some vague and dim recollection of the general purpose of the vision, yet, with the exception of some eight or ten scattered lines and images, all the rest had passed away like the images on the surface of a stream into which a stone has been cast, but, alas!

At the instant when the flow is “ turned on ”, the flow is undeflected downstream of the airfoil and there are two stagnation points on the airfoil ( where the flow velocity is zero ): one near the leading edge on the bottom surface, and another on the upper surface near the trailing edge.

At the elite level, competitors run down a runway ( usually coated with the same rubberized surface as running tracks, crumb rubber also vulcanized rubber ) and jump as far as they can from a wooden board 20 cm or 8 inches wide that is built flush with the runway into a pit filled with finely ground gravel or sand.

At a lesser meet and facilities, the plasticine will likely not exist, the runway might be a different surface or jumpers may initiate their jump from a painted or taped mark on the runway.

At this pressure the density of water is increased by 4. 96 %, making ninety-five litres of water under the pressure of the Challenger Deep contain the same mass as a hundred litres at the surface.

" At the age of 8, he had been sexually molested by a camp counselor, who had also taken nude pictures of him .... Poor Mike had spent his whole life racked with guilt and in constant fear that these pictures would someday surface in a way that might embarrass him and, especially, his adoptive father.

At the plasmon frequency, the frequency-dependent dielectric function of the free electron gas goes from negative ( reflecting ) to positive ( transmitting ); higher frequency photons are not reflected at the surface, and do not contribute to the color of the metal.

At the surface of a metal resonance effects known as surface plasmons can result.

At 10-15 kilometers ( 6 – 9 miles ) above the Earth's surface, the absorption of sunlight would further heat the smoke, lifting some, or all of it, into the stratosphere, to where the smoke would persist for years, with no rain to wash it out.

At 165. 25 million square kilometres ( 63. 8 million square miles ) in area, this largest division of the World Ocean – and, in turn, the hydrosphere – covers about 46 % of the Earth's water surface and about one-third of its total surface area, making it larger than all of the Earth's land area combined.

At the very end of the stroke, with the blade still in the water, the hands drop slightly to unload the oar so that spring energy stored in the bend of the oar gets transferred to the boat, which eases removing the oar from the water and minimizes energy wasted on lifting water above the surface ( splashing ).

At some period after its arrival in London, the inscriptions on the stone were coloured in white chalk to make them more legible, and the remaining surface was covered with a layer of carnauba wax designed to protect the Rosetta Stone from visitors ' fingers.

At 2200 B. C., a marked increase in aridity and wind circulation, subsequent to a volcanic eruption, induced a considerable degradation of land-use conditions.

At the same time, turboprop propulsion began to appear for smaller commuter planes, making it possible to serve small-volume routes in a much wider range of weather conditions.

At ambient conditions, berkelium assumes its most stable α form which has a hexagonal symmetry, space group P6 < sub > 3 </ sub >/ mmc, lattice parameters of 341 pm and 1107 pm.

At first, it was suspected that the strange features of the black hole solutions were pathological artifacts from the symmetry conditions imposed, and that the singularities would not appear in generic situations.

At various times in the past, and as late as the 1870s, the Bahr el Ghazal Depression, which extends from the northeastern part of the lake to the Djourab, acted as an overflow canal ; since independence, climatic conditions have made overflows impossible.

At the seminary, Frankel taught that Jewish law was not static, but rather has always developed in response to changing conditions.

At least 90 % of the inhabitants of drylands live in developing nations, where they also suffer from poor economic and social conditions.

At dawn on 4 January 1967, Campbell and his team felt weather and lake conditions were suitable for an attempt to break his existing record.

At first his treatment was poor, but Allen wrote a letter, ostensibly to the Continental Congress, describing his conditions and suggesting that Congress treat the prisoners it held the same way.

At standard temperature, pressure and concentration conditions, the cell's emf ( measured by a multimeter ) is 0. 34 V. By definition, the electrode potential for the SHE is zero.

At present, there is no single equation of state that accurately predicts the properties of all substances under all conditions.

At high latitudes, north of the main zone of boreal forest or taiga, growing conditions are not adequate to maintain a continuous closed forest cover, so tree cover is both sparse and discontinuous.

At this time, Victor Gollancz suggested Orwell spend a short time investigating social conditions in economically depressed northern England.

At Wigan, he visited many homes to see how people lived, took detailed notes of housing conditions and wages earned, went down a coal mine, and used the local public library to consult public health records and reports on working conditions in mines.

At first, Minilla has difficulty producing anything more than atomic smoke rings, but Godzilla discovers that stressful conditions ( i. e. stomping on his tail ,) or motivation produces a true radioactive blast.

" At the same time, the ispolkoms ( executive committees of local Soviets ) of republics, oblasts, and krais were given rights to add other criteria for defining kulaks, depending on local conditions.

At Standard Sea Level conditions ( corresponding to a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius ), the speed of sound is 340. 3 m / s ( 1225 km / h, or 761. 2 mph, or 661. 5 knots, or 1116 ft / s ) in the Earth's atmosphere.

With the boiling point of 1794 ° C, samarium is the third most volatile lanthanide after ytterbium and europium ; this property facilitates separation of samarium from the mineral ore. At ambient conditions, samarium normally assumes a trigonal structure ( α form ).

At least two assumptions are necessary for the validity of the standard model: first, that supply and demand are independent ; and second, that supply is " constrained by a fixed resource "; If these conditions do not hold, then the Marshallian model cannot be sustained.

At present, niacin deficiency is sometimes seen in developed countries, and it is usually apparent in conditions of poverty, malnutrition, and chronic alcoholism.

At the end of the Cold War, both labs went through a process of intense scientific diversification in their research programs to adapt to the changing political conditions that no longer required as much research towards developing new nuclear weapons and has led the lab to increase research for “ non-war ” science and technology.
