If the bluff failed and they ran into trouble, Brannon had told the others, they would withdraw -- and he would come after his son another time.

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.

If one dancer slaps another, the victim may do a pirouette, sit down, or offer his assailant a fork and spoon.

If, as Reid says, `` nearly all his poetry was produced when he was not taking opium '', there may be some reason to doubt that he was under its influence in the period from 1896 to 1900 when he was writing the poems to Katie King and making plans for another book of verse.

If they do meet and recognize one another, slap backs and embrace, the moment soon is done.

If the Republicans and Southern Democrats join to defeat medical care for the old under the Social Security program, they will thereby erect still another barrier to GOP hopes in the cities.

If you are unable to sign the request, because of illness or other good cause, another person who stands in close personal or business relationship to you may sign the request on your behalf, stating the reason why you are unable to sign.

but then Arlene got another tone in a hurry, and she said, `` If it wasn't for these dear children '' --.

If Arthur Williams was involved in the fraud or the murder, then he too had another identity.

If you want to spend another day in the State Department -- another day -- you get in there and tell that captain what I told you ''.

If one of Mr. Rodgers' melodies seemed to deserve a better fate than interment in Boston or the obscurity of a Broadway failure, Mr. Hart was likely to deck it out with new lyrics to give it a second chance in another show.

If the Greek letter is used, it is assumed to be a Fourier transform of another function,

If the anchor continues to drag, or sets after having dragged too far, it should be retrieved and moved back to the desired position ( or another location chosen.

If a ) testimonies conflict one another, b ) there are a small number of witnesses, c ) the speaker has no integrity, d ) the speaker is overly hesitant or bold, or e ) the speaker is known to have motives for lying, then the epistemologist has reason to be skeptical of the speaker's claims.

If an antibody is developed to stabilize a molecule that's similar to an unstable intermediate of another ( potentially unrelated ) reaction, the developed antibody will enzymatically bind to and stabilize the intermediate state, thus catalyzing the reaction.

If another machine has that address, it will pick another address, and keep trying until it finds a free one.

If the pencil with the angle u2 is that of the maximum aberration of all the pencils transmitted, then in a plane perpendicular to the axis at O ' 1 there is a circular disk of confusion of radius O ' 1R, and in a parallel plane at O ' 2 another one of radius O ' 2R2 ; between these two is situated the disk of least confusion.

If substance is the highest category and there is no substance, being, then the unity perceived in all beings by virtue of their existing must be viewed in another way.

If the joining of monomers takes place at such a carbon atom, the free hydroxy group of the pyranose or furanose form is exchanged with an OH-side-chain of another sugar, yielding a full acetal.

* Indivisibility of certain goods: If a person wants to buy a certain amount of another's goods, but only has for payment one indivisible unit of another good which is worth more than what the person wants to obtain, a barter transaction cannot occur.

If the Crawford rule is in effect, then another option is the Holland rule, which stipulates that after the Crawford game, a player cannot double until after at least two rolls have been played by each side.

If there be any party which is more pledged than another to resist a policy of restrictive legislation, having for its object social coercion, that party is the Liberal party.

If a " weak " character is followed by another " weak " character, the algorithm will look at the first neighbouring " strong " character.

If Af is the operator induced on Af by T, then evidently Af, because by definition Af is 0 on the subspace Af.

If Af are the projections associated with the primary decomposition of T, then each Af is a polynomial in T, and accordingly if a linear operator U commutes with T then U commutes with each of the Af, i.e., each subspace Af is invariant under U.

If T is a linear operator on an arbitrary vector space and if there is a monic polynomial P such that Af, then parts ( A ) and ( B ) of Theorem 12 are valid for T with the proof which we gave.

If D denotes the differentiation operator and P is the polynomial Af then V is the null space of the operator p (, ), because Af simply says Af.

If one quantizes a real scalar field, then one finds that there is only one kind of annihilation operator ; therefore, real scalar fields describe neutral bosons.

If there is a bounded linear operator from X onto Y, then Y is reflexive.

If A is a self-adjoint operator, then is always a real number ( not complex ).

If that steady-state signal was interrupted, it indicated one of two things: either the operator was about to start transmitting, or something else had happened to break the connection — such as a physical break in the telegraph line.

If all layers of an image change regularly but a large number of layer still need to be composited ( such as in distributed rendering ), the commutativity of a compositing operator can still be exploited to speed up computation through parallelism even when there is no gain from pre-computation.

If the operator already has this in place, which is often the case today, the network can be upgraded to EDGE by activating an optional software feature.

If G is a group and X is a set, then a ( left ) group action of G on X is a binary operator:

If negation is cyclic and "∨" is a " max operator ", then the law can be expressed in the object language by ( P ∨ ~ P ∨ ~~ P ∨ ... ∨ ~...~ P ), where "~...~" represents n − 1 negation signs and "∨ ... ∨" n − 1 disjunction signs.

If there are multiple operations, the operator is given immediately after its second operand ; so the expression written " 3 − 4 + 5 " in conventional infix notation would be written " 3 4 − 5 +" in RPN: first subtract 4 from 3, then add 5 to that.

If it is another extension, the operator places the front cord in the associated jack and pulls the front key backwards to ring the called party.

If the customer knew the number, and the point was direct-dialable, the operator would dial the call.

If the distant city did not have dialable numbers, the operator would dial the code for the inward operator serving the called party, and ask her to ring the number.

If the operator could not get through by dialing the number, she could call the inward operator in the destination city, and ask her to try the number, or to test a line to see if it was busy or out of order.

If an array is used to represent a cycle, it is convenient to obtain the index with a modulo operator, which can result in zero.

If a feature was intended to be located from the center of the part, the operator needs to locate it from the center of the model, not, perhaps, from a more convenient edge or an arbitrary point, as he could when using " dumb " solids.
