The algorithm for deciding this is conceptually simple: it constructs ( the description of ) a new program t taking an argument n which ( 1 ) first executes program a on input i ( both a and i being hard-coded into the definition of t ), and ( 2 ) then returns the square of n. If a ( i ) runs forever, then t will never get to step ( 2 ), regardless of n. Then clearly, t is a function for computing squares if and only if step ( 1 ) terminates.

If either the 2nd player chooses to move to the square diagonal to the first player or the first player's 2nd move is not to this square given the choice, then a starting position before flipping moves commence that differs from the standard Othello position arises.

If the material superconducts in the absence of a field, then the superconducting phase free energy is lower than that of the normal phase and so for some finite value of the magnetic field ( proportional to the square root of the difference of the free energies at zero magnetic field ) the two free energies will be equal and a phase transition to the normal phase will occur.

( If one of the basic hand-shape glyphs is used, such as the simple square or circle, this band breaks it in two ; however, if there are lines for fingers extended from the base, then they become detached from the base, but the base itself remains intact.

* If a piece is pushed right next to the center square, it immediately disappears.

If, on completion of a move, a player's token lands on the lower-numbered end of a " ladder ", the player moves his token up to the ladder's higher-numbered square.

If he lands on the higher-numbered square of a " snake " ( or chute ), he must move his token down to the snake's lower-numbered square.

If he thus achieves a lyrical, dreamlike, drugged intensity, he pays the price for his indulgence by producing work -- Allen Ginsberg's `` Howl '' is a striking example of this tendency -- that is disoriented, Dionysian but without depth and without Apollonian control.

If we remove ourselves for a moment from our time and our infatuation with mental disease, isn't there something absurd about a hero in a novel who is defeated by his infantile neurosis??

If many of the characters in contemporary novels appear to be the bloodless relations of characters in a case history it is because the novelist is often forgetful today that those things that we call character manifest themselves in surface behavior, that the ego is still the executive agency of personality, and that all we know of personality must be discerned through the ego.

Working from ratios of populations in other ancient settlements, Yizhar Hirschfeld estimated the population of Qumran thus: " If we use the lower value of fifteen people per dunam m < sup > 2 </ sup >, it emerges that in the Hasmonean period only about 20 people occupied the site of Qumran.
