Because these are seen as low barriers to entry, machinima has been called a " democratization of filmmaking ".

Because the magneto has low voltage output at low speed, starting an engine is more difficult.

Because of their low-rise construction ( most were simple one-story buildings, anything more than two floors with outside corridors being rare ) with large car parks, the number of rooms which would fit on any given amount of land was low compared to the high-rise urban hotels which had grown around railway stations.

Because the rake angle Af at the tip of the knife is very much smaller ( or even negative ) when compared to the value of **yc for the major portion of the knife, a very rapid increase in cutting force with thickness will result.

Because the food is selected with thought for its nutritional value, care for its origin, and prepared in a manner that retains the most nutrients, the food does taste good.

Because of this keyword stropping, it was possible for AA to allow spaces in variable names, such as < code >< u > integer </ u > previous value </ code >.

Because of its size, the value of grazing and mining is considerable.

Because the remit of the Convention covers millions of species of plants and animals, and tens of thousands of these taxa are potentially of economic value, in practice this negative list approach effectively forces CITES signatories to expend limited resources on just a select few, leaving many species to be traded with neither constraint nor review.

Because some materials have both useful mineral content and recoverable calorific value, the distinction between alternative fuels and raw materials is not always clear.

Because of the immediacy of the information, historians tend to value live chronicles, such as annals, over dead ones.

Because Capra's films often carry a message about basic goodness in human nature, and show the value of unselfishness and hard work, his wholesome, feel-good themes have led some to term his style " Capra-corn.

Because rapidly rising prices undermine the role of money as a store of value, people try to spend it on real goods or services as quickly as possible.

Because entropy can be conditioned on a random variable or on that random variable being a certain value, care should be taken not to confuse these two definitions of conditional entropy, the former of which is in more common use.

Because of the network effect, new IM users gained much more value by choosing to use the Mirabilis system ( and join its large network of users ) than they would using a competing system.

Because Prolog allows impure predicates, checking the truth value of certain special predicates may have some deliberate side effect, such as printing a value to the screen.

Because the theory is ' sick ' for any negative value of the coupling constant, the series do not converge, but are an asymptotic series.

Because the truth-value of the proposition doesn't depend on the value of the variable, the variable is called bound.

Because HTSC wire has lower ( J < sub > c </ sub >) value than LTSC wire, it will take much more wire to create the same inductance.

Because it allows for community standards and demands " serious " value, Justice Douglas worried in his dissent that this test would make it easier to suppress speech and expression.

Because the western end of Lake Erie offered the shortest overland route to the frontiers of Indiana and Illinois, Maumee Harbor was seen as a site of immediate importance and great value.

Because it is the only source for the history of twelfth-century Jerusalem written by a native, historians have often assumed that William's statements could be taken at face value.

Because the logarithm is a monotonically increasing function, the logarithm of a function achieves its maximum value at the same points as the function itself, and hence the log-likelihood can be used in place of the likelihood in maximum likelihood estimation and related techniques.

Because these regimes influence and are influenced by the organization of both social and economic capital, the analysis of dimensions lacking a standard economic value ( e. g., the political economy of language, of gender, of religion ) often draw on the concepts used in Marxian critiques of capital.
