If `` Jack the Courtier '' is really to be taken as Swift, the following remark is obviously Steele's comment on Swift's change of parties and its effect on their friendship: `` I assure you, dear Jack, when I first found out such an Allay in you, as makes you of so malleable a Constitution, that you may be worked into any Form an Artificer pleases, I foresaw I should not enjoy your Favour much longer ''.

Mr. Richard Preston, executive director of the New Hampshire State Planning and Development Commission, in his remarks to the Governors Conference on Industrial Development at Providence on October 8, 1960, warned against the fallacy of attempting to attract industry solely to reduce the tax rate or to underwrite municipal services such as schools when he said: `` If this is the fundamental reason for a community's interest or if this is the basic approach, success if any will be difficult to obtain ''.

If the German people favor such a settlement we should not oppose Germany following the example of Austria.

If only this could be done more often -- with such heartening results -- many of the earth's `` big problems '' would shrink to the insignificances they really are.

If the railroads, for example, regularly slaughtered 25,000 passengers each year, the high priests of the cult would have cause to tremble for their personal safety, for such a holocaust would excite demands for the hanging of every railroad president in the United States.

) If your employer reimburses you for expenses incurred, you deduct such expenses if they otherwise qualify.

If, for some reason such as economy, we are not going to develop aircraft nuclear propulsion with a sense of national urgency, then we should turn our effort to developing jet engines with a thrust-to-weight ratio of 12 or 15 to one.

If the background of design is too smooth, or you wish to create a wood-grained effect, it may be added at this time with a dull tool such as the handle of a fine paintbrush.

If you would feel happier with full collision insurance, there is a small additional charge, again varying from country to country and depending on the term of such insurance.

If such is the case, the particles within a distance of about Af of the Earth will have, relative to the Earth, a kinetic energy less than their potential energy and they will be captured into orbits about the Earth.

If, for instance, such a change is produced by one or a few insulin comas or electroshocks, previously inhibited conditioned reactions reappear.

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 the vertex is at Af, and if the interior of C is on the left as one moves in the direction of increasing t, then every such corner can be found from the curve obtained by rotating C clockwise through 90-degrees about the vertex.

If such an unlikely transaction were to take place, it would more logically be accomplished by a stock purchase, followed by the prosecution of the claim by the wholly-owned subsidiary, followed by liquidation.

If the bottom name in each column did not have a responsible executive identified, the next name above which identified such a responsible executive was substituted.

If there were more such cases, it would be easier to answer the question whether the policy-makers favor their own social classes.

If the polarities are correct, the platform rotates in such a direction as to reduce the accelerometer output to zero.

If an expensive and specialized piece of machinery is needed -- such as a spray rig, a combine, or a binder -- it is better to pay someone with a machine to do the work.

( 2 ) If earthquakes do occur at such depths, why not deeper??

If the partition is removed, some molecules of A move towards the region occupied by B, their number depends on the number of molecules at the point considered.

If there were two large programs ready to run, one would have to wait until the other finished and vacated the large partition.

If each mode received an equal partition of energy, the short wavelength modes would consume all the energy.

The first stage of boot loaders located on fixed disks and removable drives must fit into the first 446 bytes of the Master Boot Record in order to leave room for the default 64-byte partition table with four partition entries and the two-byte boot signature, which the BIOS requires for a proper boot loader — or even less, when additional features like more than four partition entries ( up to 16 with 16 bytes each ), a disk signature ( 6 bytes ), a disk timestamp ( 6 bytes ), an Advanced Active Partition ( 18 bytes ) or special multi-boot loaders If an active partition is found, the MBR code loads the boot sector code from that partition, known as Volume Boot Record ( VBR ), and executes it.

If there is no active partition, or the active partition's boot sector is invalid, the MBR may load a secondary boot loader which will select a partition ( often via user input ) and load its boot sector, which usually loads the corresponding operating system kernel.

If one partition is corrupted, other file systems may not be affected.

If there is more than one extended partition in a partition table, only the logical drives in the first recognized extended partition type are processed.

If this happens to be true, the doctor will view the result as a three-way partition: children where both parents participate, children where one parent participates, children where neither parent participates.

If a simple majority of either group wanted partition, then these provinces would be divided.

If ever an experiment is performed with these gases that yields incorrect results, we will certainly have discovered a method of detecting their difference and recalculating the entropy increase when the partition is removed.

If the partition functions of the sub-systems are ζ < sub > 1 </ sub >, ζ < sub > 2 </ sub >, ..., ζ < sub > N </ sub >, then the partition function of the entire system is the product of the individual partition functions:

If the sub-systems have the same physical properties, then their partition functions are equal, ζ < sub > 1 </ sub >

If the sub-systems are actually identical particles, in the quantum mechanical sense that they are impossible to distinguish even in principle, the total partition function must be divided by a N!

If the first partition is FAT32, and over about one gigabyte, all that will get overwritten is the MBR, the partition table, the boot sector of the first partition and the first copy of the FAT of the first partition.
