If we stop thinking in terms of tremendous multimegaton nuclear weapons and consider employing much smaller nuclear weapons which may be more appropriate for most important military targets, it would seem that the B-52 or B-70 could carry a great many small nuclear weapons.

If we fail to develop the means to hunt down and destroy the enemy's military force with extreme care and precision, and if war comes in spite of our most ardent desires for peace, our choice of alternatives will be truly frightening.

If adjectival meanings show relatively low retentiveness of stems, as I am confident will prove to be the case in most languages of the world, why should our basic lists include 15 per cent of these unstable forms, but only 8 per cent of animals and plants which replace much more slowly??

If the master of scops who was most responsible for the poem ever used kennings that were traditional, he was at least partly deprived of free will and not inclined towards shrewd and sophisticated misuse of speech elements.

If deja vue is an illusion, then peculiarly, it is a most prevalent mental disturbance affecting even the most level-headed people.

If the change, at first sight, seems minor, we may recall that it took the Italian painters about two hundred years to make an analogous change, and the Italian painters, by universal consent, were the most brilliant group of geniuses any art has seen.

If it were primarily a believing fellowship, it would recruit believers from all social and economic ranks, something which most congregations of the New Protestantism ( with a few notable exceptions ) have not been able to do.

There are some passages in the writings of Irenaeus where the image of God and the similitude are sharply distinguished, so most notably in the statement: `` If the ( Holy ) Spirit is absent from the soul, such a man is indeed of an animal nature ; ;

`` If asked to choose between a terrible probability and a more terrible possibility, most men will choose the latter ''.

If most of them weren't exactly specific -- well, that's the way it is in life, I guess.

If, for instance, someone says " I buried $ 100 in the bank ", most people would not think someone used a shovel to dig in the mud.

Naamani Tarkow has written: " If one is to make sweeping statements, one may say that, save Magna Carta ( more truly, its implications ), the Act of Settlement is probably the most significant statute in English history ".

If 16 scanlines of continuous graphical data are written to a character-block-aligned portion of the screen then they will appear as a continuous block in most modes but in the two non-continuous modes they will be displayed as two blocks of 8 scanlines, separated in the middle by two blank scanlines.

If he begins to run too soon, the pitcher may throw to a base rather than to home — in this case, the runner is picked off, and will most likely be tagged out.

If the author has been dead more than 70 years, the work is in the public domain in most, but not all, countries.

He explained that this is one of the most important analects: " If the people be led by laws, and uniformity sought to be given them by punishments, they will try to avoid the punishment, but have no sense of shame.

* If the dealer's button is on, the table is in the point round where most casinos will allow a pass line bet to be placed.

If a 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 is thrown on the come-out roll ( i. e., if a point is set ), most casinos allow pass line bettors to take odds by placing from one to five times ( and at some casinos, up to 100 times ) the pass line bet behind the pass line.

: Nils Nilsson writes " If a program behaves as if it were multiplying, most of us would say that it is, in fact, multiplying.

If the compromise was a rebuke to the most radical vision of the liberty of the Church, on at least one point its implication was firm and unmistakable: The king, even an emperor, was a layman.

If at most one of the two terms in ( 2 ) is infinite, then ( 1 ) is the same as ( 2 ).

If left untreated, Chagas disease can be fatal, in most cases due to heart muscle damage.

If an epidemic of cholera is suspected, the most common causative agent is V. cholerae O1.

If divers are scoring 8 or 9 on most dives, it may be a sign of their extreme skill, or it may be a sign that their dive list is not competitive, and they may lose the meet to a diver with higher DDs and lower scores.

If we are to explain language's evolution, according to this view, we must tackle it as part of a wider one — the evolutionary emergence of symbolic culture as such.

If irreducible complexity is an insurmountable obstacle to evolution, it should not be possible to conceive of such pathways.

If it is wrongly assumed that the value of land is always the same, then there is of course no evolution of property whatever.

If met with ideal conditions on a new planet's surfaces, the bacteria become active and the process of evolution begins.

Scopes added to the group: " If you can prove that I've taught evolution and that I can qualify as a defendant, then I'll be willing to stand trial.

If there is no distinct boundary, then the population of A suddenly stopped using the customs characteristic of A and suddenly started using those of B, an unlikely scenario in the process of evolution.

If generation of phenotypes is conditional, and dependent on external or environmental inputs, evolution can proceed by a " phenotype-first " route, with genetic change following, rather than initiating, the formation of morphological and other phenotypic novelties.

When asked about the test case, Scopes was initially reluctant to get involved, but after some discussion he told the group gathered in Robinson's Drugstore, " If you can prove that I've taught evolution and that I can qualify as a defendant, then I'll be willing to stand trial.

If we regard the evolution of a dynamical system as a series of transformations, then there may or may not be a point which remains fixed under each transformation.

If most changes seen during molecular evolution are neutral, then fixations in a population will accumulate at a clock-rate that is equal to the rate of neutral mutations in an individual.

If turbulent evolution is assumed to occur on slow timescales, then the timescale t < sub > 0 </ sub > is simply proportional to r < sub > 0 </ sub > divided by the mean wind speed.

) If the helmsman maintains control and good communication with the crew and takes responsibility for the evolution and exactly when the boom jibes, the whole jibe will go more smoothly, safely and under control.

If we consider the metric tensor ( and the associated Ricci tensor ) to be functions of a variable which is usually called " time " ( but which may have nothing to do with any physical time ), then the Ricci flow may be defined by the geometric evolution equation

If epigenetic changes occur and are heritable, studies of the DES-exposed third generation have implications for the influence of environmental endocrine disruptors on human health and evolution.

If such a group is later discovered ( for instance, due to convergent evolution ) to be polyphyletic, rather than monophyletic, then such a group loses its original significance.

If the Hamiltonian is dependent on time, but the Hamiltonians at different times commute, then the time evolution operator can be written as:

If secular evolution, or the slow, steady evolution of a galaxy, is responsible for the formation of a significant number of bulges, then that many galaxies have not experienced a merger since the formation of their disk.

He said, " If the rise and fall of the peppered moth is one of the most visually impacting and easily understood examples of Darwinian evolution in action, it should be taught.

If the Cyclic view is temporal, then emanation is a non-temporal precursor to the theory of spiritual evolution.

Jones later recalled that in 1924, his friend William Jennings Bryan had leaned over to him at a Bible conference service in Winona Lake, Indiana, and said, " If schools and colleges do not quit teaching evolution as a fact, we are going to become a nation of atheists.

If a higher rate of molecular evolution causes increased speciation rates, then adaptation and ultimately speciation may occur more quickly in warm environments and in small bodied species, ultimately explaining observed patterns of diversity across body size and latitude.

If Earth were like the other silicate planets and lacked the duality of oceanic and continental crust, our planet would be a very different place and the evolution of Homo sapiens and civilization might have been impossible.
