Because this Victorian cycle differed from the Alexandrian cycle in the dates of some of the Paschal Full Moons, and because it tried to respect the Roman custom of fixing Easter to the Sunday in the week of the 16th to the 22nd of the lunar month ( rather than the 15th to the 21st as at Alexandria ), by providing alternative " Latin " and " Greek " dates in some years, occasional disagreements from the date of Easter as fixed by Alexandrian rules continued.

Because fixed cost must be paid regardless of whether a firm operates they should not be considered in deciding whether to produce or shutdown.

Because planned actions can typically only be submitted at a fixed maximum frequency ( e. g., once every few days or every few weeks ), the number of discrete actions is limited compared to real-time games.

Because of this, many modern large caliber hunting revolvers tend to be based on the fixed cylinder design.

Because the viewfinder and the film lens cannot share the same optical path, the viewing lens is aimed to intersect with the film lens at a fixed point somewhere in front of the camera.

Because the low pressure stages are limiting the flow, the high pressure stages can be fixed to zero flow.

Because the check value has a fixed length, the function that generates it is occasionally used as a hash function.

Because this has some fixed nonzero probability p of occurring, the E < sub > k </ sub > are independent, and the below sum diverges,

Because of the ambiguity of " surface " and " vertical ", it is more commonly expressed relative to a precisely defined vertical datum which holds fixed some known point.

Because of the zero-point energy, the position and momentum of the oscillator in the ground state are not fixed ( as they would be in a classical oscillator ), but have a small range of variance, in accordance with the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.

Because the sacrifice of Jesus through his crucifixion is commemorated on this day, the Divine Liturgy ( the sacrifice of bread and wine ) is never celebrated on Great Friday, except when this day coincides with the Great Feast of the Annunciation, which falls on the fixed date of March 25 ( for those churches which follow the traditional Julian Calendar, March 25 currently falls on April 7 of the modern Gregorian Calendar ).

Because analog channels took up an entire transponder on the satellite, and each satellite had a fixed number of transponders, dishes were usually equipped with a polar mount and actuator to sweep the dish across the horizon to receive channels from multiple satellites.

Because of the Earth's annual revolution around the Sun in an orbit that is elliptical and tilted relative to the plane of the equator, an observer at a fixed point on the Earth sees the Sun appear to move in an analemma around a mean position, taking a year to do so.

Because the ratchet engages in only a fixed set of positions, the timpanist must fine tune the drum by means of a fine tuning handle.

Because our independent transcendentals act as indeterminates over, every permutation in the symmetric group on 5 letters induces an automorphism on that leaves fixed and permutes the elements.

Because of the very heavy steam demands, the engine had to be periodically stopped and restarted, but even this process was automated by means of a buoy rising and falling in a vertical stand pipe fixed to the boiler ( the first pressure gauge ?).

Because of the proper and improper motions of the sun, one solar day ( the time between two upper culminations of the sun ) is longer than one sidereal day ( the time between two like culminations of any fixed star ).

Because mental health treatment does not lend itself to fixed price costing, other exceptions are made by insurance companies for payment in the case of longer term casemix averages.

Because the cable moves faster than most passengers could safely disembark and load, each chair is connected to the cable by a powerful spring-loaded cable grip which detaches at terminals, allowing the chair to slow considerably for convenient loading and unloading at a typical speed of 200 ft / min ( 2 mph, 4 km / h, 1 m / s ), a speed slower even than fixed-grip bunny chairlifts.

Because the Jesuits were the chief inquisitors in Portugal in the 18th century, Pombal ’ s efforts against their order was instrumental in weakening the grip of the Inquisition.

Because the slider and the curveball share nearly the same grip and have the same unique throwing motions, this curveball breaks much like a slider, and is colloquially termed a " slurve ".

Because of its texture, pine tar improves a batter's grip on the bat and prevents the bat from slipping out of the batter's hands during hard swings.

Because this grip uses the smaller and faster finger muscles, this grip is used by single-stroke champions.

Because of that drum position, using an overhand grip on the high ( left ) side of the drum would force the elbow into a very awkward position while an underhand grip is much more comfortable.

Because of the grip he uses, his splitter often reacts much like a knuckleball ( because it is difficult to predict what it will do ), resulting in it often being referred to as the " ghost pitch ".

Because the limbs are relatively wide, flatbows will usually narrow and become deeper at the handle, with a rounded, non-bending, handle for easier grip.

Because of this, most users would migrate to a different grip over time, one where the right hand stayed stationary and modulated the gas and brake, while the left hand twisted the left half of the controller to modulate the steering.

Because the cutting edges are so small, they can be touched when spinning by a finger without cutting the skin, which flexes out of the way, although it would not be safe to pinch or grip them from two sides.

Because of this design, most Doppelmayr detachable lifts are designed to allow operation in reverse.

Because of the independent lifts, the lower deck can be raised to, telescoping into the upper deck but not disturbing it.

Because there are no boards in the slot area, it is difficult to play physically on opposing forwards so centres must be adept at using their sticks to defend via poke checks, sweep checks, stick lifts, and other stickwork.

Because of the height difference between actors Whitmore and Arness, Whitmore wore " lifts " on his shoes to compensate for it.

Because a cable is much lighter than a chain, cable lifts are much faster than chain lifts and can be used on much steeper hills-even vertical.

Because of this design, the bolt handle lifts only 60 degrees on opening giving more clearance for scopes compared to the 90 degrees required for the Model 700 and other two-lugged bolts.
