It was honored with the President's Award in 2000 by All American Rose Selections, Inc., which is presented to one public garden in the United States each year for superior rose maintenance and display: “ For contributing to the public interest in rose growing through its efforts in maintaining an outstanding public rose garden .”

" For Coke, human nature determined the purpose of law ; and law was superior to any one man's reason or will.

For this purpose, DECtapes were far superior to paper tapes, in terms of reliability, durability, and speed.

For a coastal population with superior naval technologies, it made sense to expand overseas in the face of a youth bulge effect.

For example, Shabbat, the Jewish Sabbath, began to be looked upon as the embodiment of God in temporal life, and every ceremony performed on that day was considered to have an influence upon the superior world.

For the eleven of fourteen boys with siblings, in nine instances their siblings were stronger academically, but in one case the subject was performing equal to, and in another case superior to, his siblings.

For that, the government must be according to a constitution of government that is consistent with the superior unwritten constitutions of nature and society.

For a short time soprano saxophonist Sidney Bechet played with the group, imparting his propulsive swing and superior musicianship to the young band members.

For example, for several centuries the Greek hoplite's ( heavy infantry ) use of phalanx made them far superior to their enemies.

For example, the law of land warfare prohibits the use of a flag of truce or clearly marked medical vehicles as cover for an attack or ambush, but an asymmetric combatant using this prohibited tactic to its advantage depends on the superior power's obedience to the corresponding law.

For applications that did not require impact ( e. g., carbon-copy printing ), the inkjet was superior in nearly all respects: comparatively quiet operation, faster print speed, and output quality almost as good as a laser printer.

For example, a platoon of soldiers in combat can be thought of as a distinct group, since individual members are willing to risk their lives for the survival of the group, and therefore the group can be conceived as having a " right " which is superior to that of any individual member ; for example, a soldier who disobeys an officer can be punished, perhaps even killed, for a breach of obedience.

For example, football has a higher chance of being understood than foxtrot in isolation, but foxtrot is superior in extended communication.

* For the defence of the states against the nascent Italian state in the last years of papal territorial autonomy, an international Catholic volunteer corps, called Papal Zouaves after a kind of French colonial native Algerian infantry, and imitating their uniform type, was created and fought in many engagements with great courage against superior odds in men and equipment.

For example, the United States retired the B-53 warhead, with a yield of 9 megatons, because the B-61 Mod 11 could attack similar targets with much lower yield ( 400 kilotons ), due to the latter's superior ground penetration.

For the obverse, Barber primarily used Trenchard's 1786 Columbian Magazine version, but replaced the eagle with the superior one from Dupré's 1792 Diplomatic Medal ( which had been rediscovered a few years before ).

For De Ruyter, the successful campaign, repelling attacks by much superior fleets to save his homeland, had been the highlight of his career, as the English readily acknowledged ; the Duke of York concluded that among admirals " he was the greatest that ever to that time was in the world ".

A spokesperson from one of the environmental groups stated: " For Nestlé to claim that its bottled water product is environmentally superior to any other consumer product in the world is not supportable ".

It is also necessary to employ some specific anatomical knowledge in order to apply the terminology unambiguously: For example, while the ears would be superior to ( above ) the shoulders in a human, this fails when describing the armadillo, where the shoulders are above the ears.

For example, the shoulders are superior to the navel, but inferior to the eyes in humans.

For adults, a randomized controlled trial found PEG or GlycoLax 17 grams once per day to be superior to tegaserod at 6 mg twice per day.

For the person whose damaged or diseased living eye retains some function, other options superior to the electronic eye may be available.

For diving and exposure protection applications, neoprene is manufactured by foaming the plastic with nitrogen gas, for the insulation properties of the tiny enclosed and separated gas bubbles ( nitrogen is used for chemical convenience, not because it is superior to air as an insulator ).

In 2003 Reform rabbi Joshua L. Segal described it as " a remarkable piece of Jewish scholarship " and added, " For events prior to 1900, it is considered to offer a level of scholarship superior to either of the more recent Jewish Encyclopedias written in English.

For planets, comets and asteroids a different definition of absolute magnitude is used which is more meaningful for nonstellar objects.

For these, asha was the course of everything observable, the motion of the planets and astral bodies, the progression of the seasons, the pattern of daily nomadic herdsman life, governed by regular metronomic events such as sunrise and sunset.

For centuries, many philosophers and scientists supposed that extrasolar planets existed, but there was no way of knowing how common they were or how similar they might be to the planets of the Solar System.

For instance, in the 55 Cancri system the first planet – 55 Cancri b – was discovered in 1996 ; two additional farther planets were simultaneously discovered in 2002 with the nearest to the star being named 55 Cancri c and the other 55 Cancri d ; a fourth planet was claimed ( its existence was later disputed ) in 2004 and named 55 Cancri e despite lying closer to the star than 55 Cancri b ; and the most recently discovered planet, in 2007, was named 55 Cancri f despite lying between 55 Cancri c and 55 Cancri d. As of April 2012 the highest letter in use is " j ", for the unconfirmed planet HD 10180 j ( HD 10180 h is the confirmed planet with the highest letter ).

For example, the planets that orbit the pulsar PSR 1257 are often referred to with capital rather than lowercase letters.

For astrodynamics reasons, cheap spacecraft travel to other planets is only practical within certain time windows.

For the planets, the cubes of their distances from the Sun are proportional to the squares of their orbital periods.

For example, the motion of planets around the sun may be described in a particular type of spacetime, or the motion of light around a rotating star may be described in another type of spacetime.

For the outer planets, each planet is predicted to be roughly twice as far from the Sun as the previous object.

For example, the Astronomical Almanac uses TT for its tables of positions ( ephemerides ) of the Sun, Moon and planets as seen from the Earth.

For example, to test Newton's Law of Gravitation in our solar system, one needs information about the masses and positions of the Sun and all the planets.

For example, in 1933 H. G. Wells postulated in The Shape of Things to Come a Second World War in which Nazi Germany and Poland are evenly matched militarily, fighting an indecisive war over ten years ; and Poul Anderson's early 1950s Psychotechnic League depicted a world undergoing a devastating nuclear war in 1958, yet by the early 21st century managing not only to rebuild the ruins on Earth but also engage in extensive space colonization of the Moon and several planets.

For planets with atmospheres of any substance, however, there is an alternative: an autonomous flying robot, or " aerobot ".

For example, both Kepler's laws of the motion of the planets and Galileo's theories of motion worked out for terrestrial objects are reducible to Newtonian theories of mechanics, because all the explanatory power of the former are contained within the latter.

For typical terrestrial planets with a mass of 0. 5 – 1 Earth masses, such an impact typically results in a single moon containing 4 % of the host planet's mass.

* For planets and other rotating celestial bodies, the angle of the axis of rotation with respect to the normal to plane of the orbit is sometimes also called inclination or axial inclination, but to avoid ambiguity can be called axial tilt or obliquity.

For planets from specific fictional milieux, use the following lists and categories:

For the Moon, Ptolemy began with Hipparchus ' epicycle-on-deferent, then added a device that historians of astronomy refer to as a " crank mechanism ": He succeeded in creating models for the other planets, where Hipparchus had failed, by introducing a third device called the equant.

For example, the orbits of some repeating comets, and meteoroids leaving them, are in resonant orbits with Jupiter or one of the other large planets – so many revolutions of one will equal another number of revolutions of the other.

For scientific uses, a modern planetary ephemeris comprises software that generates positions of the planets and often of their satellites, or of asteroids or comets at virtually any time desired by the user.

For bodies with atmospheres, the landing occurs after atmospheric entry ( or less precisely for other planets, atmospheric reentry ) and the lander is first a re-entry vehicle.

For most planets, the Newtonian model's predictions are accurate ; for Mercury, it is slightly inaccurate and the model of general relativity must be used instead.

For example, orbital elements, especially osculating elements for minor planets, are routinely given with reference to two dates: first, relative to a recent epoch for all of the elements: but some of the data are dependent on a chosen coordinate system, and then it is usual to specify the coordinate system of a standard epoch which often is not the same as the epoch of the data.
