For a brief period each year, the rays of the sun are warm enough to melt some of the snows piled a mile deep at the base of the headwalls, and then the pinnacles glisten in the daytime at high noon, and billions of gallons of water begin their slow seepage under the glaciers and across the rockstrewn hanging valleys on their long, meandering journey to the sea -- running east past the sky-carving massifs of Gurla Mandhata and Kemchenjunga, then turning south and curling down through the jungles of Assam, past the Khasi Hills, and into Bengal, past Sirinjani and Madaripur, until the hard water of the melting snows mingles with the soft drainage of fields and at length fans out to meld with the teeming salt depths of the Bay of Bengal.

For centuries the North Atlantic nations dominated the world and as long as they did they could afford the luxury of fighting each other.

For instance -- what about all those people Harold Rhodes went toward unhesitatingly, as if this were the one moment they would ever have together, their one chance of knowing each other??

( For each State, make all computations set forth in items 1 to 8 above, and then add the results obtained for each State in item 8.

For each State ( except the Virgin Islands, Guam, Puerto Rico, and, prior to 1962, Alaska and Hawaii ), determine the average per capita income for the last three years.

For the year 2000 this means servicing ( A ) the protection requirements of a watershed producing at least 200 million acre-feet of water each year, ( B ) recreation and wildlife resources used each year by 635 million visitors, ( C ) a timber resource supporting an annual cut of 21 billion board feet, and ( D ) 60 million acres of rangelands.

For added strength, I also fastened a small block on each side of every frame and batten joint.

Moreland fixed us each another drink, and said, `` For God's sake, tell me something truly amusing ''.

For each mass flow rate the arc voltage was measured.

For each i, let Af.

For an experiment to qualify as a binomial experiment, it must have four properties: ( 1 ) there must be a fixed number of trials, ( 2 ) each trial must result in a `` success '' or a `` failure '' ( a binomial trial ), ( 3 ) all trials must have identical probabilities of success, ( 4 ) the trials must be independent of each other.

For each of these lines meets Q in three points, namely two points on **zg and one point on one of the multiple secants.

For purposes of sample selection only ( individual tests were given later ) we obtained group test scores of reading achievement and intelligence from school records of the entire third-grade population in each school system.

The Wechsler Intelligence Scale For Children was administered to each sample third-grade child by a clinical worker.

For example, one hebephrenic man used to annoy me, month after month, by saying, whenever I got up to leave and made my fairly steoreotyped comment that I would be seeing him on the following day, or whenever, `` You're welcome '', in a notably condescending fashion -- as though it were his due for me to thank him for the privilege of spending the hour with him, and he were thus pointing up my failure to utter a humbly grateful, `` thank you '' to him at the end of each session.

For deserts, puddings and pies are each served once a week.

For easy viewing, the middle 2 beads on each wire ( the 5th and 6th bead ) usually are of a different colour from the other eight beads.

For each picture frame, the 6502 writes graphics commands for the DVG into a defined area of RAM ( the vector RAM ), and then asks the DVG to draw the corresponding vector image on the screen.

For example for any ( even infinite ) collection of pairs of shoes, one can pick out the left shoe from each pair to obtain an appropriate selection, but for an infinite collection of pairs of socks ( assumed to have no distinguishing features ), such a selection can be obtained only by invoking the axiom of choice.

For example, suppose that each member of the collection X is a nonempty subset of the natural numbers.

For any real number the absolute value or modulus of is denoted by ( a vertical bar on each side of the quantity ) and is defined as

For four of the six ( the anaconda and the amethystine python cannot be included for lack of data ) there is also a correlation between size at maturity and maximum length, the boa constrictor being the smallest and the Indian python the next in size at the former stage.

For example, lemon sharks reach sexual maturity at around age 13 – 15.

For another example, in a region devastated by nuclear radiation, such as the Bikini Atoll, capacity to survive gamma rays to sexual maturity and ( for the female ) to term is a key ecological selection factor, although it is neither " natural " nor sexual.

For some Canadian bonds the maturity may be over 90 years.

For example, ecological succession generally indicates that a forest's productivity rises after its establishment only until it reaches the woodland state ( 67 % tree cover ), before declining until full maturity.

It is difficult to graft but grows well from seed, typically taking about 7 years before it flowers for the first time and 15 – 20 years to reach something approaching its full size of anything between 2 – 8 m. For the home gardener, buying a " red flowering gum " from a nursery is something of an adventure: it may or may not be a ficifolia, and the flower colour does not breed true-there is no way to find out what colour the flowers will be short of planting a seedling and waiting for it to reach maturity.

For male mosquitofish, sexual maturity is reached in about 43 to 62 days.

For example, improved nutrition and outreach programs to raise awareness about the nutritional needs of female children to prevent malnutrition as well as improve the physical maturity of young mothers, are important fistula prevention strategies.

For example a standard call option on IBM, which is denominated in dollars pays $ MAX ( S − K, 0 ) ( where S is the stock price at maturity and K is the strike ).

For example, a child may be six years old chronologically but may have grown only four years old in terms of bone maturity.

For American-and Bermudan-styled options, where exercise is permitted prior to maturity, only the lattice based approach is applicable.

For example, Simon Bronner explains in his “ Historical Methodology in Folkloristics: Introduction ” that while he and other folklorists question the methods of their predecessors, their “ aim is constructive — to expand the limits of previous scholarship ” and to increase “ the maturity ” or folkloristics by “ critically looking inward ” and evaluate the methods of folkloristics as an academic discipline ( 1982, 29 ).

For very premature deliveries, a glucocorticoid is given without testing the fetal lung maturity.

For a standard bond the Macaulay duration will be between 0 and the maturity of the bond.

For most practical calculations, the Macaulay duration is calculated using the yield to maturity to calculate the:

For two bonds with same par value, same coupon and same maturity, convexity may differ depending on at what point on the price yield curve they are located.

For commercial paper the first issue character is generated by taking the letter code of the maturity month, the second issue character is the day of the maturity date, with letters used for numbers over 9.

For example, an acceptable debt structure could have an average maturity — averaged over estimated distributions for relevant financial variables — in excess of a certain limit.

For instance, Cyzicus reaches sexual maturity in 19 days after hatching.

For their insurance, industrial workers paid double what others paid for ordinary life insurance, and due to high lapse rates, as few as 1 in 12 policies reached maturity.

For males, the onset of sexual maturity occurs when they are about long, while for females, it occurs when they reach in length.

For this reason many Lower Tier 2 instruments were issued as 10yr non-call 5 year issues ( i. e. final maturity after 10yrs but callable after 5yrs ).

For example, the price of a credit card-backed, AAA rated security with a two-year maturity by a benchmark issuer might be quoted at 5 basis points ( or less ) to the two-year swap rate.
