This seems somewhat shortsighted since if the absolute educational qualifications for membership which the organizations profess are ever enforced, the educator will have the molding of the entire profession in his hands.

The president is elected for a five year term by the people ( absolute majority with 2nd round if necessary ).

The absolute magnitude is then equivalent to the apparent magnitude an object would have if it were at a standard luminosity distance ( 10 parsecs ) away from the observer, in the absence of astronomical extinction.

For galaxies ( which are of course themselves much larger than 10 parsecs, and whose overall brightness cannot be directly observed from relatively short distances ) the absolute magnitude is defined by reference to the apparent brightness of a point-like or star-like source of the same total luminosity as the galaxy, as it would appear if observed at the standard 10 parsecs distance.

In other words, the absolute magnitude of any object equals the apparent magnitude it would have if it was 10 parsecs away.

Many stars visible to the naked eye have such a low absolute magnitude that they would appear bright enough to cast shadows if they were only 10 parsecs from the Earth: Rigel (− 7. 0 ), Deneb (− 7. 2 ), Naos (− 6. 0 ), and Betelgeuse (− 5. 6 ).

In this case, the absolute magnitude is defined as the apparent magnitude that the object would have if it were one astronomical unit ( AU ) from both the Sun and the observer.

For given nonzero integers a and b there is a nonzero integer of minimal absolute value among all those of the form ax + by with x and y integers ; one can assume d > 0 by changing the signs of both s and t if necessary.

This forms the foundation for a secure operating system which, if certain critical parts are designed and implemented correctly, can ensure the absolute impossibility of penetration by hostile elements.

By treating the extra acceleration terms due to the rotation of the frame as if they were forces, subtracting them from the physical forces, it's possible to treat the second time derivative of position ( relative to the rotating frame ) as absolute acceleration.

Three scenarios were suggested by Newton to answer the question of whether the absolute rotation of a local frame can be detected ; that is, if an observer can decide whether an observed object is rotating or if the observer is rotating.

In these scenarios, the effects attributed to centrifugal force are only observed in the local frame ( the frame in which the object is stationary ) if the object is undergoing absolute rotation relative to an inertial frame.

Even if one region has an absolute advantage as to the ratio of its outputs to inputs in every type of output, it may still specialize in the output in which it has a comparative advantage and thereby gain from trading with a region that lacks any absolute advantage but has a comparative advantage in producing something else.

" If we cannot move on to point B until we have proved point A, and if in order to prove point A we must establish it with absolute certainty, then it looks as though we will have a very hard time proving any point at all.

In fact, even if all estimates have astronomical absolute values for their errors, if the expected value of the error is zero, the estimator is unbiased.

Meanwhile, a new threat arose from abroad: Holy Roman Emperor Leopold II, Frederick William II of Prussia, and the King's brother Charles-Philippe, comte d ' Artois, issued the Declaration of Pillnitz, which considered the cause of Louis XVI as their own, demanded his absolute liberty and implied an invasion of France on his behalf if the revolutionary authorities refused its conditions.

This frame cannot be used to do physics ( i. e. compute the influence of light-speed limited signals ) but it provides an objective, absolute frame all could agree upon, if superluminal communication is possible.

::: The King appoints and dismisses his ministers. The Federal Government offers its resignation to the King if the House of Representatives, by an absolute majority of its members, adopts a motion of no confidence proposing a successor to the prime minister for appointment by the King or proposes a successor to the prime minister for appointment by the King within three days of the rejection of a motion of confidence.

Another version of Hahn – Banach theorem states that if V is a vector space over the scalar field K ( either the real numbers R or the complex numbers C ), if is a seminorm, and is a K-linear functional on a K-linear subspace U of V which is dominated by on U in absolute value,

More formally, if a, b, c, and d are all integers, then the fraction < sup > a </ sup >⁄< sub > b </ sub > is irreducible if and only if there is no other equal fraction < sup > c </ sup >⁄< sub > d </ sub > such that | c | < | a | or | d | < | b |, where | a | means the absolute value of a.

The vorticity may be nonzero even when all particles are flowing along straight and parallel pathlines, if there is shear ( that is, if the flow speed varies across streamlines ).

The absolute vorticity of an air mass will change if the air mass is stretched ( or compressed ) in the z direction.

# the vorticity tensor represents any tendency of the initial sphere to rotate ; the vorticity vanishes if and only if the world lines in the congruence are everywhere orthogonal to the spatial hypersurfaces in some foliation of the spacetime, in which case, for a suitable coordinate chart, each hyperslice can be considered as a surface of ' constant time '.

The vorticity tensor measures any tendency of nearby world lines to twist about one another ( if this happens, our small blob of matter is rotating, as happens to fluid elements in an ordinary fluid flow which exhibits nonzero vorticity ).

`` That is, if we can be sure this is Colcord's money '' --

Let me pass over the trip to Sante Fe with something of the same speed which made Mrs. Roebuck `` wonduh if the wahtahm speed limit '' ( 35 m.p.h. ) `` is still in ee-faket ''.

It is the last of the three tests of manhood which the women impose, to discover if a male is worthy of survival there.

There was a measure of protection in its concrete walls and ceiling, but the engineers who hastily installed it were well aware that concrete is not much better than prayer, if as efficacious, when a direct hit comes along.

`` And if the dive goes OK he has the exclusive import rights to your line for this country, is that right ''??

`` All right, if you can't do your arithmetic during school hours you can do it after school is out '', Miss Langford said firmly, not smiling.

Why, in the first place, call himself a liberal if he is against laissez-faire and favors an authoritarian central government with womb-to-tomb controls over everybody??

And if he is so scornful of the rights of states, why not advocate a different sort of constitution that he could more sincerely support??

If his dancers are sometimes made to look as if they might be creatures from Mars, this is consistent with his intention of placing them in the orbit of another world, a world in which they are freed of their pedestrian identities.

I think it is essential, however, to pinpoint here the difference between the two concepts of sovereignty that went to war in 1861 -- if only to see better how imperative is our need today to clarify completely our far worse confusion on this subject.

Unruly hair goes straight up from his forehead, standing so high that the top falls gently over, as if to show that it really is hair and not bristle.

If he is the child of nothingness, if he is the predestined victim of an age of atomic wars, then he will consult only his own organic needs and go beyond good and evil.

He will not curb his instinctual desires but release the energy within him that makes him feel truly and fully alive, even if it is only for this brief moment before the apocalypse of annihilation explodes on earth.

If love reflects the nature of man, as Ortega Y Gasset believes, if the person in love betrays decisively what he is by his behavior in love, then the writers of the beat generation are creating a new literary genre.

And if I have gone into so much detail about so small a work, that is because it is also so typical a work, representing the germinal form of a conflict which remains essential in Mann's writing: the crude sketch of Piepsam contains, in its critical, destructive and self-destructive tendencies, much that is enlarged and illuminated in the figures of, for instance, Naphta and Leverkuhn.

All such imitations of negative quality have given rise to a compensatory response in the form of a heroic and highly individualistic humanism: if man can neither know nor love reality as it is, he can at least invent an artistic `` reality '' which is its own world and which can speak to man of purely personal and subjective qualities capable of being known and worthy of being loved.

But Aristotle kept the principle of levels and even augmented it by describing in the Poetics what kinds of character and action must be imitated if the play is to be a vehicle of serious and important human truths.

Operating as a one man police force in fact if not in name, he is at once more independent and more dedicated than the police themselves.
