His credulity is perhaps best illustrated in his introduction to The Emancipation Of Massachusetts, which purports to examine the trials of Moses and to draw a parallel between the leader of the Israelite exodus from Egypt and the leadership of the Puritan clergy in colonial New England.

he usually draws some kind of comparison with the jazz tradition and the poem he is reading -- for instance, he draws the parallel between a poem he reads about an Oriental courtesan waiting for the man she loves, and who never comes, and the old blues chants of Ma Rainy and other Negro singers -- but usually the comparison is specious.

A parallel function for philosophy is the study of the relation between perceptions experientially received and conceptions logically formed.

The trompe-l'oeil illusion here is no longer enclosed between parallel flatnesses, but seems to thrust through the surface of the drawing paper and establish depth on top of it.

Planes defined as parallel to the surface also cut through it into real space, and a depth is suggested optically which is greater than that established pictorially.

Curiously, this scene is a close parallel to one that Verdi was writing at the same time, the scene between Amonasro and Aida.

Here, H is the coatings removal force measured parallel to the surface of the substrate and T is the film thickness.

For the case of a purely inertial autonavigator consisting of three restrained gyros, a coordinate system is used where the sensitive axis of the X accelerometer is parallel to the east-west direction at the base point, and the Y accelerometer sensitive axis is parallel to the north-south direction at the base point.

The name probably means " she who ( comes ) at dusk ," which would identify Aphrodite in her personification as the evening star, a significant parallel she shares with Mesopotamian Ishtar.

The century's most significant development in geometry occurred when, around 1830, János Bolyai and Nikolai Ivanovich Lobachevsky separately published work on non-Euclidean geometry, in which the parallel postulate is not valid.

By the time it left office, the exchange rate in the parallel market had depreciated further, over 10 % of GDP had been borrowed to finance the fiscal deficit, and there was a significant monetary overhang in the country.

The older stable 1. x branch, whose latest version as of January 2012 is 1. 4. 12, will be continued in parallel with the new GnuPG 2 series because there were significant changes in the architecture of the program which will not fit every purpose.

# The data signaling rate is given by where m is the number of parallel channels, n < sub > i </ sub > is the number of significant conditions of the modulation in the i-th channel, and T < sub > i </ sub > is the unit interval, expressed in seconds, for the i-th channel.

# For parallel transmission with equal unit intervals and equal numbers of significant conditions on each channel, the DSR is ( m / T ) log < sub > 2 </ sub > n ; in the case of a two-condition modulation, this reduces to m / T.

In the case where an individual end-to-end telecommunications service is provided by parallel channels, the parallel-channel signaling rate is given by, where PCSR is the total signaling rate for m channels, m is the number of parallel channels, T < sub > i </ sub > is the minimum interval between significant instants for the I-th channel, and n < sub > i </ sub > is the number of significant conditions of modulation for the I-th channel.

( In this region around the San Francisco Bay Area several significant " sister faults " run more-or-less parallel, and each of these can create significantly destructive earthquakes.

The title of the series was inspired by earlier crossover stories involving the multiple parallel Earths of the Multiverse, such as " Crisis on Earth-Two " and " Crisis on Earth-Three ", but instead of lasting two to five issues and involving members from many superhero teams from many parallel worlds, it involved virtually every significant character from every parallel universe in DC's history.

It is the only county in the state that occupies a significant amount of land north of the 42nd parallel.

Loop optimization is often the focus of optimizing compilers because significant time is spent in program loops and parallel processing opportunities can often be facilitated by automatic code re-structuring such as loop unrolling.

Their encounter was highly significant for them both, for it represented the beginning of a relationship that was to last, in parallel with that with of long-time partner Suzanne, for the rest of his life .” In short time their association became “ a very intimate and personal one .”

The significant advantage of this system is its scaling: if a sheet with an aspect ratio of is divided into two equal halves parallel to its shortest sides, then the halves will again have an aspect ratio of.

Stratocumulus undulatus clouds appear as nearly parallel waves, rolls or separate elongated clouds, without significant vertical development.

Engines exhibit significant variation in the way they allow programmatic access to the engine and its working memory, and may extend the basic Rete model to support forms of parallel and distributed processing.

This supplanted the previously significant All Ordinaries index, which still runs parallel to the S & P ASX 200.

In parallel with the development of this work on mind and language, McDowell also made significant contributions to moral philosophy, specifically meta-ethical debates over the nature of moral reasons and moral objectivity.

Scholars suspect that the transfer of these regulations to 49th or 50th year was a deliberate attempt to parallel the fact that Shavuot is 50 days after Passover, and follows seven weeks of harvest ; this parallel is regarded as significant in Kabbalah.

Others, less consciously but quite probably influenced by the trends of the times, experiment with approaches that parallel those of the contemporary poet, painter, and musician.

Already Trevelyan had begun to parallel his nineteenth-century Italian studies with several works on English figures of the same period.

To document his charge, Pike set up two parallel columns in The Advocate showing the price charged by The Gazette and the considerably lower price for which the work could be done elsewhere.

They were climbing the hill in the night when the headlights abruptly probed solid blackness, became two parallel luminous tubes which broadened out into a faint mist of light and ended.

There should be 10'' '' between the two parallel members and each should be 1'' '' from an end of the long piece.

Scribe a line through the center of the pin and across the face of tappet 3, parallel to piece `` A ''.

The parallel bars, horse, buck, springboard, horizontal bar, rings, and mats formerly in the school gyms were replaced by baseball, volleyball, basketball and football.

Oersted's own earlier experiments were unimpressive, possibly because he had, like other experimenters, laid the conducting wire across the compass needle instead of parallel with it.

At this lecture Oersted happened to place the conducting wire over and parallel to a magnetic needle.

`` We have made limited application of the ' parallel ladder ' plan.
