It is possible, although highly doubtful, that he killed none at all but merely let his reputation work for him by privately claiming every unsolved murder in the state.

It is also possible, but equally doubtful, that he actually shot down the hundreds of men with which his legend credits him.

`` Now that Bruno Walter is virtually in retirement and my dear friend Dimitri Mitropoulos is no longer with us, I am probably the only one -- with the possible exception of Leonard Bernstein -- who has this special affinity for and champions the works of Bruckner and Mahler ''.

Even in domains where detailed and predictive understanding is still lacking, but where some explanations are possible, as with lightning and weather and earthquakes, the appropriate kind of human action has been more adequately indicated.

Within this notion clarity is possible, but for us who are neither Greek nor Jansenist there is not such clarity.

Mimesis is the nearest possible thing to the actual re-living of experience, in which the imagining person recovers through images something of the force and depth characteristic of experience itself.

Whitehead contends that the human way of understanding existence as a unity of interlocking and interdependent processes which constitute each other and which cause each other to be and not to be is possible only because the basic form of such an understanding, for all its vagueness and tendency to mistake the detail, is initially given in the way man feels the world.

The first of two possible variations on this theme is symbolized by Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer.

All we want from Dr. Huxley's statement is the feeling that this is an open world, in the view of the best scientific opinion, with practically no directional commitments as to what may happen next, and no important confinements with respect to what may be possible.

In the range and variety of characters who, in their literary lives, get along all right with life styles one never imagined possible, there is an implicit lesson in differentiation.

It is possible that the study of literature affects the conscience, the morality, the sensitivity to some code of `` right '' and `` wrong ''.

It is possible that the idea of enrichment of emotion is a fifth idea.

It is at least possible that the capacity to postpone gratification is developed as well as expressed in a continuous and guided exposure to great literature.

Most students of literature, whether they call themselves scholars or critics, are ready to argue that it is possible to understand literary works as well as to enjoy them.

In looking back over the volumes, it is possible to find errors of interpretation, some of which were not so evident at the time of writing.

Says he, `` I may never imagine that in the struggle between personal and supra-personal responsibility it is possible to make a compromise between the ethical and the purposive in the shape of a relative ethic ; ;

Fortunately, it is possible to be somewhat more concrete and factual in diagnosing the involvement of values in education.

But when the situation was so complicated that even Nogaret, one of the principal actors in the drama, could misinterpret the pope's motives, it is possible that Othon and his companions, equally baffled, attributed their difficulties to a more immediate cause.

It is no longer possible to say that a sceptical attitude towards the received accounts of the invasions almost automatically produces a `` shore occupied by '' interpretation.

The polyether glycols are claimed to give flexible urethanes a spring-back action which is much desired in cushioning.

In one-shot, the isocyanate, polyester or polyether resin, catalyst, and other additives are mixed directly and a foam is produced immediately.

Polyethylene glycol ( PEG ) is a polyether compound with many applications from industrial manufacturing to medicine.

It is used as an initiator of an anionic addition polymerization with ethylene oxide, forming a polyether with high molecular weight.

SABIC is also the world ’ s largest producer of mono-ethylene glycol, MTBE, granular urea, polyphenylene and polyether imide.

An example of an oxirane cascade reaction is given by the synthesis of certain polyether ladder polymers:

The hydroxyl group in the tri-epoxide is activated as a nucleophile by the presence of the base caesium carbonate The bulky trimethylsilyl groups make such that the polyether is formed with the correct stereochemistry and they are removed in situ by caesium fluoride.

Chemically it is a polyether.

In urethane foams, for example, there has been a definite trend toward the polyether-type materials ( which are now available in two-component rigid foam systems ) and the emphasis is definitely on one-shot molding.

This reaction is exploited in tandem with the production of polyurethane to give polyurethane foams.

Cake making is no longer a complicated procedure ; while at one time considerable labor went into cake making ( particularly the whisking of egg foams ), baking equipment and directions have been simplified so that even the most amateur cook may bake a cake.

When " playing possum ", the animal's lips are drawn back, the teeth are bared, saliva foams around the mouth, the eyes close or half-close, and a foul-smelling fluid is secreted from the anal glands.

Common examples include vinyl acetate ( the resulting product is ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, or EVA, widely used in athletic-shoe sole foams ) and a variety of acrylates.

This is important because the foams used have very little resistance to penetration and abrasion.

Plastic deformation is observed in most materials including metals, soils, rocks, concrete, foams, bone and skin.

This applies to open cell foams where the bending moment is exerted on the cell walls.

In closed cell foams, the yield strength is increased if the material is under tension because of the membrane that spans the face of the cells.

In most foams, the volume of gas is large, with thin films of liquid or solid separating the regions of gas.

An important division of solid foams is into closed-cell foams and open-cell foams.

The term foam may also refer to anything that is analogous to such a foam, such as quantum foam, polyurethane foam ( foam rubber ), XPS foam, Polystyrene, phenolic, or many other manufactured foams.

One scale is the bubble one: real-life foams are typically disordered and have a variety of bubble sizes.

At larger sizes, the study of idealized foams is closely linked to the mathematical problems of minimal surfaces and three-dimensional tessellations, also called honeycombs.

The Weaire-Phelan structure is believed to be the best possible ( optimal ) unit cell of a perfectly ordered foam, while Plateau's laws describe how soap-films form structures in foams.

At lower scale than the bubble one, is the thickness of the film for dry enough foams, which can be considered as a network of interconnected films called lamellae.

Open-cell-structured foams contain pores that are connected to each other and form an interconnected network that is relatively soft.

A special class of closed-cell foams is known as syntactic foam, which contains hollow particles embedded in a matrix material.

The advantage of syntactic foams is that they have a very high strength-to-weight ratio, making them ideal materials for many applications, including deep-sea and space applications.

Temporary hair color is available in various forms including rinses, shampoos, gels, sprays, and foams.

Also, since the Jewel case is made of plastic, it is sturdier compared to cardboard paper or foams.
