The French critics thought it was characteristic of American films of the 1930s or 1940s ; however, it was mostly characteristic of cheaper American movies, such as Charlie Chan mysteries where people collected in front of a fireplace or at the foot of the stairs in order to explain what happened a few minutes ago.

“ Acts, then is a continuation of the Lucan Gospel, not in the sense that it relates what Jesus continued to do, but how his followers carried out his commission under the guidance of his Spirit .” Thus, part of the answer to the purpose of Acts is that Luke is writing to Theophilus, who is also mentioned in Luke 1: 3, in order to explain to him the occurrences that take place in the church that fulfill Jesus ’ promise to his disciples that “ you will be baptized with, the Holy Spirit not many days from now ” ( Acts 1: 5 ).

In order to work, and as pointed out by Roger Penrose from 1986 on, inflation requires extremely specific initial conditions of its own, so that the problem ( or pseudoproblem ) of initial conditions is not solved: “ There is something fundamentally misconceived about trying to explain the uniformity of the early universe as resulting from a thermalization process.

Chomsky argued that in order to explain language, we needed a theory like generative grammar, which not only attributed internal representations but characterized their underlying order.

In the early work of Max Planck, Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr, the existence of energy in discrete quantities had been postulated, in order to explain phenomena, such as the spectrum of black-body radiation, the photoelectric effect, and the stability and spectrum of atoms such as hydrogen, that had eluded explanation by, and even appeared to be in contradiction with, classical physics.

In order to explain how an a priori concept can relate to individual phenomena, in a manner analogous to an a posteriori concept, Kant employed the technical concept of the schema.

Although the names are old, this opposition is a modern western-influenced development popularized by Martin Haug in the 1880s, and was in effect a realignment of the precepts of Zurvanism ( Zurvanite Zoroastrianism ), which had invented a third deity, Zurvan, in order to explain a mention of twinship ( Yasna 30. 3 ) between the moral and immoral.

Undoubtedly, David's artistic sensibility, mercurial temperament, volatile emotions, ardent enthusiasm, and fierce independence might have been expected to help turn him against the established order but they did not fully explain his devotion to the republican regime.

Historically, the concept of entropy evolved in order to explain why some processes ( permitted by conservation laws ) occur spontaneously while their time reversals ( also permitted by conservation laws ) do not ; systems tend to progress in the direction of increasing entropy.

Capra's job was to head a special section on morale in order to explain to soldiers " why the hell they're in uniform ", writes Capra, and were not " propaganda " films like those created by the Nazis and Japan.

Mason and Howard, in order to give the film more of an American feel, came up with the idea of inserting newly-shot footage of newscaster Eric Carter, a UN reporter who spends much of the time commenting on the action from the UN Headquarters via an International Communication Satellite ( ICS ) broadcast, and Arnold Johnson, the head of the Museum of Natural History in New York, who tries to explain Godzilla's origin and his and Kong's motivations.

They explain that they keep the Earth's natural order of things in balance.

Rather than claim that the Not-I is the cause or ground of the Anstoss, Fichte argues that non-I is set up by the I precisely in order to explain to itself the anstoss, that is, in order to become conscious of anstoss.

He adds " If this highly speculative surmise be correct, it is also necessary to assume either that the existence of the door was forgotten or that the entrance was again blocked with facing stones " in order to explain why al-Ma ' mun could not find the entrance.

Granitic magma must make room for itself or be intruded into other rocks in order to form an intrusion, and several mechanisms have been proposed to explain how large batholiths have been emplaced:

Thus, a non-intuitive ( e. g., a higher-energy for at least one species ) distribution of electrons in the combination of iron and oxygen must exist, in order to explain the observed diamagnetism and no unpaired electrons.

Halley proposed this scheme in order to explain anomalous compass readings.

These " laws " are synthesized from a multitude of belief systems from around the world, and were collected in order to explain and categorize magical beliefs within a cohesive framework.

There is no doubt that Copernicus ' " De Revolutionibus " seeks to advance a sun-centered system, but in this book he had to resort to Ptolemaic devices ( viz., epicycles and eccentric circles ) in order to explain the change in planets ' orbital speed.

A range of theories of language acquisition have been proposed in order to explain this apparent problem.

Below are links to topics that explain methods, processes and related topics in order to enhance understanding of materials science.

In order to explain the verifier-based definition of NP, let us consider the subset sum problem:

Optical and electron microscopy involve the diffraction, reflection, or refraction of electromagnetic radiation / electron beams interacting with the specimen, and the subsequent collection of this scattered radiation or another signal in order to create an image.

They are indicated for use in cycloplegic refraction ( to paralyze the ciliary muscle in order to determine the true refractive error of the lens ) and the treatment of uveitis.

The seismic refraction method utilizes the refraction of seismic waves on geologic layers and rock / soil units in order to characterize the subsurface geologic conditions and geologic structure.

In contrast to Newton's vision of wretchedness as his willful sin and distance from God, wretchedness has instead come to mean an obstacle of physical, social, or spiritual nature to overcome in order to achieve a state of grace, happiness, or contentment.

When Newton's method is used to find the solution for the maximum likelihood estimate, the middle 24 % order statistics can be used as an initial solution for x < sub > 0 </ sub >.

In order to make the Lincoln chapter house appear similar to the Westminster Chapter House, murals were painted on a special layer over the existing wall, and elsewhere polystyrene replicas of Sir Isaac Newton's tomb and other Abbey monuments were set up.

The first one after Newton's method is Halley's method with cubic order of convergence.

Laguerre's method, as well as Halley's method, use second order derivatives and complex arithmetics, including the complex square root, to exhibit cubic convergence for simple roots, dominating the quadratic convergence displayed by Newton's method.

For a system of N particles with coordinates and velocities, the following pair of first order differential equations may be written in Newton's notation as

In order to achieve exact mass proportionality as in Newton's theory ( which implies no shielding or saturation effects and an infinitely porous structure of matter ), the ultramundane flux must be infinitely intense.

Rubin, however, supports the MOND approach, stating " If I could have my pick, I would like to learn that Newton's laws must be modified in order to correctly describe gravitational interactions at large distances.

In physics, the Newtonian limit refers to physical systems without significantly intense gravitation, in the sense that Newton's law of universal gravitation may be used to obtain values that are correct to a high order.

: In other words, in comparison with Newton's, Hutton's was a higher order concept of the system of nature which included not only the present structure of the world, but the process ( or natural history ) by which the present structure had come into existence and was maintained.

If we compare Newton's method with the secant method, we see that Newton's method converges faster ( order 2 against α ≈ 1. 6 ).

The importance of the Hasse – Minkowski theorem lies in the novel paradigm it presented for answering arithmetical questions: in order to determine whether an equation of a certain type has a solution in rational numbers, it is sufficient to test whether it has solutions over complete fields of real and p-adic numbers, where analytic considerations, such as Newton's method and its p-adic analogue, Hensel's lemma, apply.

In the Enlightenment, centuries before modern science made good on atomist intuitions, a nominal allegiance to Mechanistic Materialism gained popularity despite harboring Newton's action at distance, and comprising the native habitat of teleological arguments: Machines or artifacts composed of parts lacking any intrinsic relationship to each other with their order imposed from without.

From it was selected and published in 1712, by order of the Royal Society, the Commercium Epistolicum, of material relevant to Newton's priority over Leibniz in the discovery of the infinitesimal calculus ; specimens of results from the use of the fluxional method were transmitted 20 July 1669 through Barrow to Collins, and by him made widely known.

Christopher Newton's final season as Artistic Director of the Shaw was in 2002, and he invited Jackie Maxwell to join him for the season as Artistic Director Designate in order to ensure a careful transition of leadership.

Hannibal counting the signet rings of the Equestrian order | Roman knights killed during the battle, statue by Sébastien Slodtz, 1704, Louvre

Around 1700, Netley Abbey came into the hands of Sir Berkeley Lucy ( also spelled Sir " Bartlet ") who decided in 1704 to demolish the by now unfashionable house in order to sell the materials.

The present Hirado Castle was constructed in 1704 by order of the 4th daimyō of Hirado domain, Matsuura Takashi with the assistance of the Tokugawa shogunate to be the keystone in seaward defenses of Japan in the East China Sea region, now that the country had implemented a policy of national seclusion against western traders and missionaries.
