Criticism is as old as literary art and we can set the stage for our study of three moderns if we see how certain critics in the past have dealt with the ethical aspects of literature.

Easily the best known of these three novels is The Space Merchants, a good example of a science-fiction dystopia which extrapolates much more than the impact of science on human life, though its most important warning is in this area, namely as to the use to which discoveries in the behavioral sciences may be put.

And to do this requires first of all the kind of information about people which is provided by the scientists in industrial anthropology and consumer research, who, for example, tell Courtenay that three days is the `` optimum priming period for a closed social circuit to be triggered with a catalytic cue-phrase '' -- which means that an effective propaganda technique is to send an idea into circulation and then three days later reinforce or undermine it.

The heretics have made all kinds of efforts to violate these oaths, to go up by force and to seize sovereignty and freedom by themselves, before the appointed time .... have lured the majority of the Jewish people into awful heresy, the like of which as not been seen since the world was created .... And so it is no wonder that the Lord has lashed out in anger .... And there were also righteous people who perished because of the iniquity of the sinners and corrupters, so great was the wrath.

Ailes lashed out against Woodward, saying " Woodward got it all screwed up, as usual ," and " The reason he's not as rich as Tom Clancy is that while he and Clancy both make stuff up, Clancy does his research first.

The crate is lashed to empty barrels, and the contents sealed in a waterproof zinc envelope, showing careful preparation and packing.

The play is famous for introducing the cliched " thrill " device of having the villain tie someone to the railroad tracks — only in this case, it was the hero who was lashed to the tracks, and the heroine who ultimately saved him.

Each is a complete creation in itself, and yet each is lashed tightly to the next.

Mr. Bill agrees, and the camera pulls back to reveal that Mr. Bill is lashed to the exterior of a NASA Space Shuttle.

If someone dies on a ship and it is impossible to bury him on land, the body is placed ( O: tightly lashed ) between two planks ( O: to obviate bloating ) and thrown into the sea ( O: so that it reaches shore, even if the inhabitants are non-Muslims, since a Muslim might find the body and bury it facing the direction of prayer ( qibla )).

What ensued was one of the most vitriolic corporate battles of the 1980s, with Perot and Smith publicly exchanging barbs using the media, which delightedly splashed the story over every business publication in the U. S .. Perot notoriously lashed out at Smith in a 1988 exclusive to Fortune Magazine, saying: " My question is: Why haven't we unleashed their potential?

The truth is more prosaic ; while he was indeed lashed to the rigging of the mainmast, it was a precautionary move rather than an act of defiance.

The hill's scoria cones was erupted from three craters-one is still intact and two have been breached by lava flows that rafted away part of the side of the scoria cone.

The river is also the largest volume commercially rafted in New Zealand, having an average flow of 216 m < sup > 3 </ sup >/ s at Chards Road measuring station.

The porcupine is a caviomorph rodent whose ancestors rafted across the Atlantic from Africa to Brazil over 30 million years ago, and then invaded North America during the Great American Interchange after the Isthmus of Panama rose 3 million years ago.

On the commercially rafted sections ( III and IV ) there is a 1 / 4 to 1 / 2 mile buffer zone of National Forest on both sides of the river, allowing no roads or development of any kind within that distance.

Gore Canyon was first rafted in the 1970s, and now is even available as a commercial river raft trip.

It is said that each Cacique, at the beginning of his reign, was covered in gold dust and ritually rafted to the middle of the lake, where he swam to bathe the heavy gold off, then made offerings of riches in gold works.

The wooden bracing between the roof beams is placed flush with the inside of the wall.

Once the beams are laid across the building, it is then time to begin the placing of adobe bricks to create the roof.

An adobe roof is often laid with bricks slightly larger in width to ensure a larger expanse is covered when placing the bricks onto the beams.

Laser Doppler anemometers use a beam of light from a laser that is divided into two beams, with one propagated out of the anemometer.

High speed beams of cathode rays can also be steered and manipulated by electric fields created by additional metal plates in the tube to which voltage is applied, or magnetic fields created by coils of wire ( electromagnets ).

The technology of manipulating electron beams pioneered in these early tubes was applied practically in the design of vacuum tubes, particularly in the invention of the cathode ray tube by Ferdinand Braun in 1897. and is today employed in sophisticated devices such as electron microscopes, electron beam lithography, and particle accelerators.

The purpose of these slots is not known, but the central gutter in the floor of the Gallery, which is the same width as the Ascending Passage, has led to speculation that the blocking stones were stored in the Grand Gallery and the slots held wooden beams to restrain them from sliding down the passage.

The laser harp is not a stringed instrument at all, but is a harp-shaped electronic instrument that has laser beams where harps have strings.

It is also concerned with the physics of laser beam propagation, particularly the physics of Gaussian beams, with laser applications, and with associated fields such as nonlinear optics and quantum optics.

The spatial difference between the two beams is minimal ( less than the maximum resolution of the objective ).

In a homogeneous specimen, there is no difference between the two beams, and no contrast is being generated.

Gaussian beam propagation is a simple paraxial physical optics model for the propagation of coherent radiation such as laser beams.

Each of the three beams is called a component of that color, and each of them can have an arbitrary intensity, from fully off to fully on, in the mixture.

The RGB color model is additive in the sense that the three light beams are added together, and their light spectra add, wavelength for wavelength, to make the final color's spectrum.

Light sails could also be driven by energy beams that extend their range of operations, which, strictly, is beam sailing rather than solar sailing.

However, this works only if the scattering is weak, i. e., if the scattered beams are much less intense than the incoming beam.

Neutron diffraction is an excellent method for structure determination, although it has been difficult to obtain intense, monochromatic beams of neutrons in sufficient quantities.

The oldest and most precise method of X-ray crystallography is single-crystal X-ray diffraction, in which a beam of X-rays strikes a single crystal, producing scattered beams.

When they land on a piece of film or other detector, these beams make a diffraction pattern of spots ; the strengths and angles of these beams are recorded as the crystal is gradually rotated.
