And they had almost everything they needed: land, a house, two whiteface bulls, three horses.

The mere fact that the tall figure with the rifle and field glasses had been seen riding that way was enough to frighten three rustling homesteaders out of the Upper Laramie country in a single week.

My lovely caller -- Joyce Holland was her name -- had previously done three filmed commercials for zing, and this evening, the fourth, a super production, had been filmed at the home of Louis Thor.

A call to the police had been placed from here a couple of minutes after nine P.M., and the first police car had arrived two or three minutes after that -- 10 minutes ago now.

My new Aunt was perhaps three or four years older than I and it had been a long time since I had seen as gorgeous a woman who oozed sex.

His four weeks in Italy had turned into nearer three months.

For three days, their stolid oxen had plodded up a blazing valley as flat and featureless as a dead sea.

Our lifeboat was filling rapidly and despite what I had heard of the inhabitants of Eromonga, I was glad to see a long and graceful outrigger manned by three bronzed girls glide out of a lagoon into the open sea and toward our craft.

Wisman, who has had the chief controller's job for four years, calls the signals for a team operating three rows of dull-gray consoles studded with lights, switches and buttons.

After he had spent the first three years in New York as associate conductor, at Toscanini's invitation, of the NBC Orchestra, he made numerous guest appearances throughout the United States and Latin America.

I was having lunch not long ago ( apologies to N. V. Peale ) with three distinguished historians ( one specializing in the European Middle Ages, one in American history, and one in the Far East ), and I asked them if they could name instances where the general mores had been radically changed with `` deliberate speed, majestic instancy '' ( Francis Thompson's words for the Hound Of Heaven's Pursuit ) by judicial fiat.

Isn't it a bit odd that the three states of Southern New England ( Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island ) have had state institutions of university status only in the very recent past, these institutions having previously been A & M colleges??

The waspish man stopped me three paces from the bicycle barricade, and asked me in French if I had papers to leave France.

the energetic Parisian, Roger De Damas, three year's Littlepage's junior, to whom Nassau had taken a liking ; ;

in three months the Army spent three-quarters as much as had been expended on the `` big Ditch '' in ten years.

Catherwood, an architect in New York, had been forgotten, like Stephens, and Victor reconstructed their lives as one reconstructs, for a museum, a dinosaur from two or three petrified bones.

Two or three times, C. C. Burlingham came to lunch with us in Weston, that wonderful man who lived to be more than a hundred years old and whose birthplace had been my Wall Street suburb.

However, at eighty-five, he had still been busy writing articles, reviewing and speaking, and I had never before known an Englishman who had visited and lectured in three quarters of the United States.

The publication last July of the party's Draft Program -- that blueprint for the `` transition to communism '' -- had led the uninitiated to suppose that this Twenty-second Congress would be a sort of apotheosis of the Khrushchev regime, a solemn consecration of ideas which had, in fact, been current over the last three or four years ( i.e., since the defeat of the `` anti-party group '' ) in all theoretical party journals.

The development of transistors made electronic analog computers practical, and until digital computers had developed sufficiently, they continued to be commonly used in science and industry.

* AT & T Mobility-In areas where AT & T Mobility previously had D-AMPS operating on 1900 MHz frequencies, no analog AMPS network existed, and the D-AMPS network on the 1900 MHz frequency was shut down in mid-2007.

Digital video was first introduced commercially in 1986 with the Sony D-1 format, which recorded an uncompressed standard definition component video signal in digital form instead of the high-band analog forms that had been commonplace until then.

They saw immediately that while vendor A might have a really nice analog simulation environment, vendor B had a much better PCB or silicon layout auto-router.

Operational amplifiers had their origins in analog computers where they were used to do mathematical operations in many linear, non-linear and frequency-dependent circuits.

It also had rudimentary analog filtering and ADSR.

When analog long distance trunks were commonplace, for example in 12 channel carrier, group delay distortion had to be corrected in repeaters.

Also manufactured for a brief period was the Rhodes Mk III EK-10 which had analog oscillators and filters alongside the existing electromechanical elements.

Sony had originally intended for Digital Audio Tape ( DAT ) to be the dominant home digital audio recording format, replacing the analog cassette.

The United States obtained portions of a Purple machine from the Japanese Embassy in Germany following Germany's defeat in 1945 ( see image above ) and discovered that the Japanese had used precisely the same " stepping switch " in its construction that Leo Rosen of SIS had chosen when building a " duplicate " ( or Purple analog machine ) in Washington in 1939 and 1940.

In a strict sense, this had little to do with modern-day computer generated morphing effects, since it was merely a dissolve using fully analog equipment.

Notably, some episodes in Seasons Three through Five had serious technical errors with either their sketch-of-the-day teaser segments or their next-show teaser segments, which was probably because of the failure of the linear analog video-editing equipment.

The CRTC ordered that in 28 " mandatory markets ", full power over-the-air analog television transmitters had to cease transmitting by August 31, 2011.

The video no longer had to be converted from an analog signal to digital data — it was recorded as digital to start with — and FireWire offered a straightforward way of transferring that data without the need for additional hardware or compression.

In the end most users found they were not saving much, once they had to purchase a 3. 5-inch floppy drive, analog RGB monitor and mouse.

Because analog channels took up an entire transponder on the satellite, and each satellite had a fixed number of transponders, dishes were usually equipped with a polar mount and actuator to sweep the dish across the horizon to receive channels from multiple satellites.

The Semetex prototype design actually had the 8 channels of uncompressed data placed into 3 locations: data bordering both sides of the analog sound track and additional data tracks bordering the opposite edge of the picture frame.

The transmitter had digital to analog converters on the PCI bus feeding an up converter ( mixer ) that led to a power amplifier and antenna.

The city has one television station owned by Weigel Broadcasting, WMLW-TV ( Channel 49 ), an independent station which airs syndicated product, and had its analog transmitter just north of the Milwaukee County line in Oak Creek.

Another notable early instrument is the Hammond Novachord, first produced in 1938, which had many of the same features as later analog synthesizers.

Inspired by the music of Nocturnal Emissions, Portion Control, and The Legendary Pink Dots, music which had been accessible to the band primarily via tape exchange, Skinny Puppy experimented with analog and digital recording techniques, composing multi-layered music with synthesizers, drum machines, acoustic percussion, tape-splices, found sounds, distortion, samplers, and conventional rock music instruments.

Thus, by the end of 1940, SIS had constructed an exact analog of the PURPLE machine without ever having seen one.
