However, Paley's personal favorite was Gunsmoke ; in fact, he was such a fan of Gunsmoke that, upon its threatened cancellation in 1967, he demanded that it be reinstated, a dictum that led to the abrupt demise of Gilligan's Island, which had already been renewed for a fourth season.

Korzybski's dictum " the map is not the territory " is also cited as an underlying principle used in neuro-linguistic programming, where it is used to signify that individual people in fact do not in general have access to absolute knowledge of reality, but in fact only have access to a set of beliefs they have built up over time, about reality.

" According to Heylin, it " was the first song he had ever written around a dictum from the Bible, indeed a saying directly attributed to Jesus himself: ' All things, therefore, that you want men to do to you, you also must likewise do to them ; this, in fact, is what the Law and the Prophets mean ' ( Matthew 7: 12 ).

It was in York that Alcuin formed his love of classical poetry, though he was sometimes troubled by the fact that it was written by non-Christians.

This and related predictions follow from the fact that light follows what is called a light-like or null geodesic — a generalization of the straight lines along which light travels in classical physics.

In the process, many fragments of classical learning are preserved which otherwise would have been hopelessly lost ; " in fact, in the majority of his works, including the Origines, he contributes little more than the mortar which connects excerpts from other authors, as if he was aware of his deficiencies and had more confidence in the stilus maiorum than his own " his translator Katherine Nell MacFarlane remarks ; on the other hand, some of these fragments were lost in the first place because Isidore ’ s work was so highly regarded — Braulio called it quecunque fere sciri debentur, " practically everything that it is necessary to know "— that it superseded the use of many individual works of the classics themselves, which were not recopied and have therefore been lost: " all secular knowledge that was of use to the Christian scholar had been winnowed out and contained in one handy volume ; the scholar need search no further ".

In fact, his interest in the geometry of differential equations was first motivated by the work of Carl Gustav Jacobi, on the theory of partial differential equations of first order and on the equations of classical mechanics.

However, because the intuitionistic notion of truth is more restrictive than that of classical mathematics, the intuitionist must reject some assumptions of classical logic to ensure that everything he proves is in fact intuitionistically true.

The changes that took place at the beginning of the 20th-century are emphasized by the fact that many modern disciplines, including sciences such as physics, mathematics, neuroscience and economics, and arts such as ballet and architecture, call their pre-20th century forms classical.

With the omission of the law of the excluded middle as an axiom, the remaining logical system has an existence property which classical logic does not: whenever is proven constructively, then in fact is proven constructively for ( at least ) one particular, often called a witness.

Biblical scholar F. F. Bruce has said " the evidence for our New Testament writings is ever so much greater than the evidence for many writings of classical authors, the authenticity of which no one dreams of questioning ... It is a curious fact that historians have often been much readier to trust the New Testament records than have many theologians.

In fact, all measures derived from classical test theory are dependent on the sample tested, while, in principle, those derived from item response theory are not.

Although this fact may seem to indicate that qubits can hold exponentially more information than their classical counterparts, care must be taken not to overlook the fact that the qubits are only in a probabilistic superposition of all of their states.

They also claim that the belief that solar deities are primarily male is linked to the fact that a few better known mythologies ( such as those of late classical Greece and late Roman mythology ) rarely break from this rule, although closer examination of the earlier myths of those cultures reveal a very different distribution than the contemporary popular belief.

The name is motivated by the fact that half of the signs of the classical Greek zodiac are represented as animals ( besides two mythological hybrids ).

The classical Latin pronunciation sounds like the English, occurring in biologic and anatomic names, such as Hyoscamus niger ( black henbane ), and even for animals that are not in fact black, such as Sciurus niger ( fox squirrel ).

Bertrand Russell updated the classical terminology with one more term, the fact ; " Everything that there is in the world I call a fact.

In fact, as far as prediction goes, the quantum development is at least as predictable as the classical motion, but the key is that it describes wave functions that cannot be easily expressed in ordinary language.

Both Sun Wu and Sun Bin were referred to as Sun Tzu in classical Chinese writings, and some historians believed that Sun Wu was in fact Sun Bin until Sun Bin's own treatise was discovered in 1972.

The fact that classical Greek authors often used eponymous explanations to explain away names through folk etymology makes it more likely that Ithakos derives from Ithaca rather than vice versa.

Language is also important in relation to Tranio and Lucentio, who appear on stage speaking a highly artificial style of blank verse full of classical and mythological allusions and elaborate metaphors and similes, thus immediately setting them aside from the more straightforward language of the Induction, and alerting the audience to the fact that we are now in an entirely different milieu.

The classical scholar Isaac Casaubon in De rebus sacris et ecclesiasticis exercitationes XVI ( 1614 ) showed, through an analysis of the Greek language used in the texts, that those texts which were believed to be of ancient origin were in fact much more recent: most of the " philosophical " Corpus Hermeticum can be dated to around AD 300.

The music of Spain is often associated abroad with traditions like flamenco and the classical guitar but Spanish music is, in fact, diverse from region to region.

In the Five Temperaments theory, the classical Phlegmatic temperament is in fact deemed to be a neutral temperament, whereas the " relationship-oriented introvert " position traditionally held by the Phlegmatic is declared to be a new " fifth temperament.

In physics, for an ensemble of particles, the bistability comes from the fact that its free energy has three critical points.

In fact, Minkowski seems responsible for most of Hilbert's physics investigations prior to 1912, including their joint seminar in the subject in 1905.

According to Noether's theorem, the conservation of energy is a consequence of the fact that the laws of physics do not change over time.

The fact that the electric charges of electrons and protons seem to cancel each other exactly to extreme precision is essential for the existence of the macroscopic world as we know it, but this important property of elementary particles is not explained in the Standard Model of particle physics.

This fact, combined with a high excitation energy resulting in a particularly rich spectrum of decay gamma rays produced when the metastable state de-excites, makes this isotope useful in nuclear physics experiments as a means for calibrating energy responses and intrinsic efficiencies of gamma ray spectrometers.

Heat engines distinguish themselves from other types of engines by the fact that their efficiency is fundamentally limited by Carnot's theorem .< ref > Thermal physics: entropy and free energies, by Joon Chang Lee ( 2002 ), Appendix A, p. 183: " A heat engine absorbs energy from a heat source and then converts it into work for us.

That is, conservation of momentum is a consequence of the fact that the laws of physics do not depend on position ; this is a special case of Noether's theorem.

Chain reactions were known in chemistry before physics, and in fact many familiar processes like fires and chemical explosions are chemical chain reactions.

This is a very important fact in nuclear physics: Protons and neutrons in an atomic nucleus cannot all be in the same quantum state, but instead they spread out into nuclear shells analogous to electron shells in chemistry.

The idea of an ansible is known but none yet exists-Shevek's new physics may be-in fact, eventually is-the key.

In physics, emergence is used to describe a property, law, or phenomenon which occurs at macroscopic scales ( in space or time ) but not at microscopic scales, despite the fact that a macroscopic system can be viewed as a very large ensemble of microscopic systems.

He showed that mathematical physics is a conservative extension of his non-mathematical physics ( that is, every physical fact provable in mathematical physics is already provable from Field's system ), so that mathematics is a reliable process whose physical applications are all true, even though its own statements are false.

Adequate determinism focuses on quantum mechanics | the fact that, even without a full understanding of microscopic physics, we can predict the distribution of 1000 coin tosses

In fact, α is one of the about 20 empirical parameters in the Standard Model of particle physics, whose value is not determined within the Standard Model.

An Aristotelian could take a position on the spectrum between the view that the non-existence of the void was just a brute fact ( like the non-existence of unicorns ) or it was a high principle of physics ( like conservation of energy ).

In fact, this analogy is an abelian example for the Higgs mechanism, through which in high-energy physics the masses of the electroweak gauge particles,

Despite the fact that successful isolated system perpetual motion devices are physically impossible in terms of the current understanding of the laws of physics, the pursuit of perpetual motion remains popular.

The name comes from the fact that Buck holds a doctorate in physics.

When it was reported that the Lambert W function provides an exact solution to the quantum-mechanical double-well Dirac delta function model for equal charges — a fundamental problem in physics — Corless and developers of the Maple Computer algebra system made a library search to find that this function was in fact ubiquitous to nature.

Electro-optics is often erroneously used as a synonym, but is in fact a wider branch of physics that deals with all interactions between light and electric fields, whether or not they form part of an electronic device.
