At this point a working definition of idea is in order, although our first definition will have to be qualified somewhat as we proceed.

A tragedy, by his definition, is an imitation of an action that is serious, of a certain magnitude, and complete in itself.

Now good definition is one thing that all of us can acquire with occasional high-set, high-rep, light-weight workouts.

But contest definition -- that dramatic muscular separation of every muscle group that seems as though it must have been carved by a sculptor's chisel -- is something quite different.

It is the one exercise that drastically influences the definition of the thighs at the hipline -- that mark of the champion that sets him apart from all other bodybuilders ; ;

But for purely definition purposes -- used in conjunction with your regular Squatting, Leg Curling, Leg Extensor programs -- a heavy weight is not needed.

If Af is the operator induced on Af by T, then evidently Af, because by definition Af is 0 on the subspace Af.

Though there is obviously great need for continued experimentation with various types of short-term intervention to further efforts in developing an operational definition of prevention at the secondary -- or perhaps, in some instances, primary -- level, the place of short-term intervention has already been documented by a number of investigators in a wide variety of settings.

Finally, when the accelerometer output is zero, the entire system remains stationary, and the platform is, by definition, leveled.

When her brother Winslow became a student at Brown University in 1874, she wrote him about a course in history he was taking under Professor Diman: `` What is Prof. Diman's definition of civilization, and take the world through, is its progress ever onward, or does it retrograde at times??

One definition of paternalism is `` The principle or practice, on the part of a government, of managing the affairs of a country in the manner of a father dealing with his children ''.

If Bultmann's own definition of myth is strictly adhered to ( and it is interesting that this is almost never done by those who make such pronouncements ), the evidence is overwhelming that he does not at all exaggerate the extent to which the mythological concepts of traditional theology have become incredible and irrelevant.

Anarchism is generally defined as the political philosophy which holds the state to be undesirable, unnecessary, and harmful ,< ref name =" definition ">

The majority of the clocks are caesium clocks ; the definition of the SI second is written in terms of caesium.

If the XML document type declaration includes any SYSTEM identifier for the external subset, it can't be safely processed as standalone: the URI should be retrieved, otherwise there may be unknown named character entities whose definition may be needed to correctly parse the effective XML syntax in the internal subset or in the document body ( the XML syntax parsing is normally performed after the substitution of all named entities, excluding the five entities that are predefined in XML and that are implicitly substituted after parsing the XML document into lexical tokens ).

Such approaches implicitly entail Stevens's definition of measurement, which requires only that numbers are assigned according to some rule.

Gödel's completeness theorem of 1930 implicitly contains a definition of a universal computer, because the logical rules acting on some axioms of arithmetic will eventually prove as a theorem the result of any computation.

Humans are not rational by definition, but they can think and behave rationally or not, depending on whether they apply, explicitly or implicitly, the strategy of theoretical and practical rationality to the thoughts they accept and to the actions they perform.

An even stronger case for the definition of empty sums arises when certain notions are defined in terms the existence of summations ; not defining empty sums would implicitly alter such notions in a way that is usually undesirable.

Dr. McLaren does not say that the biopsychosocial model is devoid of merit, just that it does not fit the definition of a scientific model ( or theory ) and does not " reveal anything that would not be known ( implicitly, if not explicitly ) to any practitioner of reasonable sensitivity.

This is a possible resolution, and it implicitly recognises that he has no definition of comparison for infinite numbers, but is less powerful than the modern resolution.

This equivalence is useful because the definition of first-order satisfiability implicitly existentially quantifies over the evaluation of function symbols.

This final step of treating as can be done because functions are implicitly existentially quantified by in the definition of first-order satisfiability.

This is an improvement because the semantics of tableau may implicitly place the formula in the scope of some universally quantified variables that are not in the formula itself ; these variables are not in the Skolem term, while they would be there according to the original definition of Skolemization.

This inclusive usage can be understood as a metonymic extension of the literal sense, or as a self-demonstration, the early definition being a lie-to-children itself, implicitly refined to the " more accurate explanation " by its broader use later.

Note that the consideration of dual orders is so fundamental that it often occurs implicitly when writing ≥ for the dual order of ≤ without giving any prior definition of this " new " symbol.

Note that the above definition only defines implicitly ; in order to recover explicitly one needs to invert the Fourier transform.

The definition of the load impedance implicitly assumes that stress and speed are proportional and that the ratio therefore is independent of speed.

Rose states that, on his definition: " The focus is explicitly or implicitly upon more than one country, thus following familiar political science usage in excluding within-nation comparison.

Since it is presumed that one could find a common ancestor from any group of organisms if one goes far enough into the past, this definition implicitly or explicitly constrains what is a legitimate common ancestor, for example by requiring the common ancestor to share a derived trait ( synapomorphy ) which defines the group.

without mentioning that this definition implicitly assumes that the system is closed, has a constant volume and that there is only one reaction.

The Brønsted-Lowry definition is the most widely used definition ; unless otherwise specified acid-base reactions are assumed to involve the transfer of a proton ( H < sup >+</ sup >) from an acid to a base.

The above definition imposes no constraints on η ( 0 ), even though it is assumed that η ( k ) tends to zero as k tends to zero.

When the statement " all A are B " is qualified like this to exclude those A which are not B, this is a form of begging the question ; the conclusion is assumed by the definition of " true A ".

The parallel computer in the definition can be assumed to be a parallel, random-access machine ( PRAM ).

It has been claimed under reductive physicalism, that when a distinction is made in ones mind between a hypothetical zombie and oneself ( assumed not to be a zombie ), and noting that the concept of oneself under reductive physicalism may ever only correspond to physical reality, the concept of the hypothetical zombie can only be a subset of the concept of oneself and will in this nature also entail a deficit in observables ( cognitive systems ) thereby contradicting the original definition of a zombie.

In this context, two things are assumed constant by definition of the short run: the availability of one or more fixed inputs ( typically physical capital ), and the number of firms in the industry.

The definition of an atom varies per context ; in the original definition by John McCarthy, it was assumed that there existed " an infinite set of distinguishable atomic symbols " represented as " strings of capital Latin letters and digits with single imbedded blanks " ( i. e., character string and numeric literals ).

Similarly in D version 1, it is assumed that the programmer knows what to do with delegates and local variables, as their references will be invalid after return from its definition scope ( local variables are on the stack )-this still permits many useful functional patterns, but for complex cases needs explicit heap allocation for variables.

While it is often assumed that those with this intelligence naturally excel in mathematics, chess, computer programming and other logical or numerical activities, a more accurate definition places less emphasis on traditional mathematical ability and more on reasoning capabilities, recognizing abstract patterns, scientific thinking and investigation and the ability to perform complex calculations.

Sometimes it is assumed that mean anomaly is zero at the epoch ( by choosing the appropriate definition of the epoch ), leaving only the five other orbital elements to be specified.

If the strip definition tags are missing, then the image is assumed to contain a single strip.

Lawrence Liang, founder of the Alternative Law Forum, argues that current copyright is based on a too narrow definition of " author ", which is assumed to be clear and undisputed.

In this definition, the intervals can be assumed to have the following two properties:

Namely, the question of how the interaction takes place, where in dualism ' the mind ' is assumed to be non physical and by definition outside of the realm of science.

At each step, it is assumed that the underlying instrument will move up or down by a specific factor ( or ) per step of the tree ( where, by definition, and < math > 0 < d

In this definition, it has been assumed that the stochastic variable is scalar-valued.

They are taken as the definition of a general monad ( not assumed a priori to be connected to an adjunction ) on a category.

There are some variations of the definition: sometimes the Fuchsian group is assumed to be finitely generated, sometimes it is allowed to be a subgroup of PGL ( 2, R ) = PSL ( 2, R ). 2 ( so that it contains orientation-reversing elements ) and sometimes it is allowed to be a Kleinian group ( a discrete group of PSL ( 2, C )) that is conjugate to a subgroup of PSL ( 2, R ).

Many people had concluded that people in a group setting would make decisions based on what they assumed to be the overall risk level of a group ; because Stoner ’ s work did not necessarily address this specific theme, and because it does seem to contrast Stoner ’ s initial definition of risky shift, additional controversy arose leading researchers to further examine the topic.

', the phonetic spelling of " kick the bucket ", ( i. e. dying ), in The End ; references to people: " Busheney " ( an assumed portmanteau of Bush and Cheney ) to describe Count Olaf, followed by the definition of " you are a vile man who has no regard for anyone else ", or being written in other languages: " Shalom " or " Sayonara.

Such a use of coordinative definition is in effect, on Reichenbach's conventionalism, in the General Theory of Relativity where light is assumed, i. e. not discovered, to mark out equal distances in equal times.

According to the commonly understood definition of the term, child sexual abuse is extremely and pervasively harmful, meaning that " in any population sampled-drug addicts, psychiatric patients, or college students-persons who have experienced CSA should show strong evidence of the assumed properties of CSA.
