Their interest remains chiefly biographical, for they throw some light on the utter despair which overtook Thompson in the spring and early summer of 1900.

Charles Plummer in the introduction and notes to his splendid edition of Bede voiced some early doubts concerning the `` elaborate superstructure '' they raised up over the slim foundations afforded by the traditional narratives of the conquest.

His early poems and some of his prose prolusions speak of wanderings in the city and the neighboring country that may be extended to Cambridge and its surrounding countryside.

Discoveries recently made of old Biblical manuscripts in Hebrew and Greek and other ancient writings, some by the early church fathers, in themselves called for a restudy of the Bible.

He and other Soviet leaders responsible for the document were proud of having brought forward some new formulas, such as the early replacement of the dictatorship of the proletariat by an `` All People's State '', and also of having laid down the lines for a much greater `` democratization '' of the whole hierarchy of Soviets, starting with the Supreme Soviet itself.

I would like to see you devote some space in an early issue to the news blackout concerning President Kennedy's activities, so far as Southern California is concerned.

set production ( excluding those destined for the export market ) also ran ahead in the early months, but was curtailed after the usual vacation shutdowns in the face of growing evidence that some of the early production plans had been overly optimistic.

In the early 1950's, Smith, together with his distinguished colleague, George Trager ( so austerely academic he sometimes fights his own evident charm ), and a third man with the engaging name of Birdwhistell ( Ray ), agreed on some basic premises about the three-part process that makes communication: ( 1 ) words or language ( 2 ) paralanguage, a set of phenomena including laughing, weeping, voice breaks, and `` tone '' of voice, and ( 3 ) kinesics, the technical name for gestures, facial expressions, and body shifts -- nodding or shaking the head, `` talking '' with one's hands, et cetera.

Indeed, in some periods of our history and in some neighborhoods the job opportunities have been so good that undoubtedly a great many boys who were potential members of the professions quit school at an early age and went to work.

A sense of self-certainty and the freedom to experiment with different roles, or confidence in one's own unique behavior as an alternative to peer-group conformity, is more easily developed during adolescence if, during early childhood, the individual was permitted to exercise initiative and encouraged to develop some autonomy.

For example, some unwed mothers had had no work experiences, household chores, and responsibilities during childhood and early adolescence ; ;

On the other hand, some unwed mothers had had so much work and responsibility imposed on them at an early age, and had thus had so little freedom or opportunity to develop autonomy and initiative, that their work and responsibilities became dull and unrewarding burdens -- to be escaped and rebelled against through fun and experimentation with forbidden sexual behavior.

The effort produced a valuable record of stage techniques in the early years of the century and some interesting records of great theater figures who would otherwise be only names.

Farther south, there are attractive patches all the way to the Ozarks, with some seasonal peaks as late as early November.

Zion was surprised when Roy's buggy stopped beside her on the pike one early summer day as she was walking home from the country school where she was teaching now that Eph Showers had had a call to preach in some mountain town.

She lived alone in the older part of the city, in one of those renovated houses whose brick facade some early settler had constructed.

At the end of the Devonian period (), the seas, rivers and lakes were teeming with life but the land was the realm of early plants and devoid of vertebrates though some, such as Ichthyostega, may have sometimes hauled themselves out of the water.

On some early versions of the game, it was also possible to hide the ship in the score area indefinitely without being hit by asteroids.

The order is thought to have first diverged from other related monocots some 120-130 million years ago ( early in the Cretaceous period ), although given the difficulty in classifying the families involved, estimates are likely to be uncertain.

The most important text for the study of early Korean is the Hyangga, a collection of 25 poems, of which some go back to the Three Kingdoms period ( 57 – 668 AD ), but are preserved in an orthography that only goes back to the 9th century AD ( Miller 1996: 60 ).

At the peak of its efficiency in the early 16th century, the Venetian Arsenal employed some 16, 000 people who apparently were able to produce nearly one ship each day, and could fit out, arm, and provision a newly-built galley with standardized parts on an assembly-line basis not seen again until the Industrial Revolution.

Abbreviations have been used as long as phonetic scripts have existed, in some sense actually being more common in early literacy, where spelling out a whole word was often avoided, initial letters commonly being used to represent words in specific application.

Upstream from it and between the Rhine and Abnoba ( in the Black Forest ) are the Ingriones, Intuergi, Vangiones, Caritni and Vispi, some of whom were there since the days of the early empire or before.

Additionally the pump itself will make many safety checks throughout the day, in some cases up to 4, 000, 000 and may have a second microprocessor dedicated to this.

Some of IBM's engineers and other employees wanted to use the IBM 801 processor, some would prefer the new Motorola 68000, while others argued for a small and simple microprocessor, such as the MOS Technology 6502 or Zilog Z80, which had been used in earlier personal computers.

The Motorola 6809 is an 8-bit ( with some 16-bit features ) microprocessor CPU from Motorola, designed by Terry Ritter and Joel Boney and introduced 1978.

The P5 Pentium competitors included the Motorola 68060 and the PowerPC 601 as well as the SPARC, MIPS, and Alpha microprocessor families, most of which also used a superscalar in-order dual instruction pipeline configuration at some time.

A digital filter system usually consists of an analog-to-digital converter to sample the input signal, followed by a microprocessor and some peripheral components such as memory to store data and filter coefficients etc.

In some high performance applications, an FPGA or ASIC is used instead of a general purpose microprocessor, or a specialized DSP with specific paralleled architecture for expediting operations such as filtering.

As the cost of microprocessors and microcontrollers fell it became feasible to replace expensive knob-based analog components such as potentiometers and variable capacitors with up / down buttons or knobs read out by a microprocessor even in some consumer products.

At some point in 1991, Apple Computer decided to not migrate their 68000-based software and hardware to Motorola's next generation 88xxx series microprocessor.

After the mainline 68000 processors ' demise, the 68000 family has been used to some extent in microcontroller / embedded microprocessor versions.

These are microprocessor circuits that contain some fixed functions and other functions that can be altered by code running on the processor.

However, pressure switches ( some dishwashers use a pressure switch and flow meter ) are not required in most microprocessor controlled dishwashers as they use the motor and sometimes a rotational position sensor to sense the resistance of water, when it senses there is no cavitation it knows it has the optimal amount of water.

When asked where he got the ideas for the architecture of the first microprocessor, Hoff related that Plessey, " a British tractor company ", had donated a minicomputer to Stanford, and he had " played with it some " while he was there.

The design of the microprocessor architecture on practically all modern systems ( except some embedded systems ) involves a security model ( such as the rings model ) which specifies multiple privilege levels under which software may be executed ; for instance, a program is usually limited to its own address space so that it cannot access or modify other running programs or the operating system itself, and a program is usually prevented from directly manipulating hardware devices ( e. g. the frame buffer or network devices ).

Tandem was not big enough for that, so it needed to move its NonStop product line and customer base onto some advanced microprocessor chip set designed and built by others.

So Tandem needed to eventually move its NonStop product line yet again onto some other microprocessor architecture with competitive fast chips.

It utilized the CMOS-based 65C02 microprocessor ( instead of a plain 6502 ) which added 27 new processor instructions and drew less power ( but hampered compatibility with a very small number of programs that used illegal opcodes of the 6502 processor, some of which were mapped to legitimate instructions and the remainders to NOPs ).

Transmitting interleaved Reed-Solomon FEC signal in some smart modulation needs a lot fewer resources than reception of the same signal, thus a sufficient microprocessor might cost just USD 5 instead of USD 30 and a system cost might stay below USD 50, transmitter included.

The following 6502 platforms with a RP2A03 / RP2A07 microprocessor including some clone units are compatible with the NSF format and current NSF players.

While some PL / M compilers were " native ", meaning that they ran on systems using that same microprocessor, e. g. for the Intel ISIS operating system, there were also " cross compilers " which ran on other operating environments such as Microsoft's DOS, and Digital Equipment Corporation's VAX / VMS.

The introduction of the microprocessor in the 1970s further reduced the cost of implementation, and today almost all CNC machines use some form of microprocessor to handle all operations.

In some variations of the joke, it is alleged that the major microchip production companies ( especially the large microprocessor manufacturers ) are involved in a conspiracy to keep the true nature of their products under wraps.

If true, the theory has major implications for efforts to design consciousness into Artificial intelligence machines ; current microprocessor technology is designed to transmit information linearly along electrical channels, and more general electromagnetic effects are seen as a nuisance and damped out ; if this theory is right, however, this is directly counterproductive to the process of creating an artificially-intelligent computer, which on some versions of the theory would instead have electromagnetic fields that synchronized its outputs — or in the original version of the theory would have spatially patterned electromagnetic fields.

Unlike other 16-bit microprocessors such as the National Semiconductor IMP-16 or DEC LSI-11, some of which predated the TMS9900, the latter was a single-chip, self-contained 16-bit microprocessor.
