Terrorist groups such as al Qaeda enjoy subjecting captured enemy soldiers to a variety of tortures &# 151 ; typically commencing with the forcible extraction of all ten fingernails, all ten toenails, and all thirty-two teeth &# 151 ; before executing them by such barbaric techniques as slow decapitation via butcher knife.

For sequential data writes, NOR flash chips typically have slow write speeds, compared with NAND flash.

Electronic vector displays were typically monochrome only, and either don't fill in the interiors of closed vector shapes, or shape-filling is slow, time-consuming, and often non-uniform, as on pen-based plotters.

Traffic proceeds at a slow speed, typically around, to minimise head-on collisions.

The API does include a Reference Rasterizer ( or REF device ), which emulates a generic graphics card in software, although it is too slow for most real-time 3D applications and is typically only used for debugging.

BZ typically raises the heart rate initially, but hours later, depending on the dose of BZ, the heart rate falls to normal or may become slow.

The folded leaves have hairs on the inside to slow or stop air movement, much like many other Xerophytes ( though these are typically found on the outside of the plant, but in Marram grass they are also within the leaf as this has now become a structure with more volume ).

If the spacecraft's purpose is only to fly by the inner planet, then there is typically no need to slow the spacecraft.

Slow Whip is a variation on Whip / Push that is danced to slow blues music, typically 60 BPM or slower.

Instead, change is typically slow and worked out through compromise between interest groups, regional consultations, and the government of the day.

It reduced investment in research and was slow to improve the product administration tools, although it was helped by the fact its products typically needed little " tweaking " — they just ran.

Other ( typically less accurate ) methods are called empirical or semi-empirical because they employ experimental results, often from acceptable models of atoms or related molecules, to approximate some elements of the underlying theory.

* An " experimental unit " is typically thought of as one member of a set of objects that are initially equivalent, with each object then subjected to one of several experimental treatments.

He worked extensively in experimental jazz and dabbled in free improvisation, but Lacy's music was typically melodic and tightly-structured.

The majority of protein structures known to date have been solved with the experimental technique of X-ray crystallography, which typically provides data of high resolution but provides no time-dependent information on the protein's conformational flexibility.

Weighted means are typically used to find the weighted mean of experimental data, rather than theoretically generated data.

While inferences about protein folding can be made through mutation studies ; typically, experimental techniques for studying protein folding rely on the gradual unfolding or folding of a solution of proteins and observing conformational changes using standard non-crystallographic techniques for observing protein structure.

When used, however, experiments typically follow the form of the clinical trial, where experimental units ( usually individual human beings ) are randomly assigned to a treatment or control condition and one or more outcomes are assessed.

Some experimental compiler-compilers take as input a formal description of programming language semantics, typically using denotational semantics.

However, since cancer patients typically face a higher risk of lactose intolerance, the placebo pill might actually have caused unintended side-effects that made the experimental drug look better in comparison.

Both are typically well-supported by observations and / or experimental evidence.

A scientific instrument can be any type of equipment,, apparatus or device as is specifically designed, constructed and often, through trial and error, ingeniously refined to apply utmost efficiency in the utilization of well proven physical principle, relationship or technology to facilitate or enable the pursuit, acquisition, transduction and storage of repeatable, verifiable data, usually consisting of sets numerical measurements made upon otherwise unknown, unproven quantities, properties, phenomena, materials, forces or etc., preferably as those characterized over time by an increasing degree of accuracy and precision and, typically, those initially derived as isolated or dependent variable results from, or empirical observations made during, the course of such experimental procedures as are firmly based upon the scientific method and long accepted tenants of experimental design.

During Newton's lifetime the study of chemistry was still in its infancy, so many of his experimental studies used esoteric language and vague terminology more typically associated with alchemy and occultism.

* The use of designed experimental tasks, often controlled by computer and typically measuring reaction time and accuracy on a particular tasks thought to be related to a specific neurocognitive process.

Because test takers have no definite way of knowing which section is experimental, it is typically advised that test takers try their best on every section.

In experimental physics " in situ " typically refers to a method of data collection or manipulation of a sample without exposure to an external environment.

Vivisection () is defined as surgery conducted for experimental purposes on a living organism, typically animals with a central nervous system, to view living internal structure.

While the worst case execution time is exponential, the experimental results show that the actual time is typically of order of the number of constraints.

However, the experimental values for molar heat capacities of diatomic gases are typically about 5 cal /( mol · K ) and fall to 3 cal /( mol · K ) at very low temperatures.

A given theory which is in accordance with known experiment but which has not yet produced a critical experiment is typically considered worthy of exploration in order to discover such an experimental test.

Parameterization is typically done through agreement with experimental values and theoretical calculations results.

There are two general sets of questions that experimental economists typically ask when examining such games: ( 1 ) Can laboratory subjects coordinate, or learn to coordinate, on one of multiple equilibria, and if so are there general principles that can help predict which equilibrium is likely to be chosen?
