In fact, one important aspect of their very religion is the annihilation of men ''.

Had the situation been reversed, had, for instance, England been the enemy in 1898 because of issues of concern chiefly to New England, there is little doubt that large numbers of Southerners would have happily put on their old Confederate uniforms to fight as allies of Britain.

Accidental war is so sensitive a subject that most of the people who could become directly involved in one are told just enough so they can perform their portions of incredibly complex tasks.

It is their job to think about the unthinkable.

Others are confined to vast reservations, and not only does the Australian government justifiably not wish them to be viewed as exhibits in a zoo, but on their reservations they are extremely fugitive, shunning camps, coming together only for corroborees at which their strange culture comes to its highest pitch -- which is very low indeed.

Isfahan became more of a legend than a place, and now it is for many people simply a name to which they attach their notions of old Persia and sometimes of the East.

Everyone is ready to grant the Persians their history, but almost no one is willing to acknowledge their present.

But more important, and the thing which the casual traveler and the blind sojourner often do not see, is that these places and activities are often the settings in which Persians exercise their extraordinary aesthetic sensibilities.

And it is expressed, at least to their taste, in a perfect form.

It is perhaps difficult to conceive, but imagine that tonight on London bridge the Teddy boys of the East End will gather to sing Marlowe, Herrick, Shakespeare, and perhaps some lyrics of their own.

Even though in most cases the completion of the definitive editions of their writings is still years off, enough documentation has already been assembled to warrant drawing a new composite profile of the leadership which performed the heroic dual feats of winning American independence and founding a new nation.

Before merging them into a common profile it is well to remember that their separate careers were extraordinary.

Westbrook further bemoans the Southern writers' creation of an unreal image of their homeland, which is too readily assimilated by both foreign readers and visiting Yankees: `` Our northerner is suspicious of all this crass evidence ( of urbanization ) presented to his senses.

In the meantime, while the South has been undergoing this phenomenal modernization that is so disappointing to the curious Yankee, Southern writers have certainly done little to reflect and promote their region's progress.

If his dancers are sometimes made to look as if they might be creatures from Mars, this is consistent with his intention of placing them in the orbit of another world, a world in which they are freed of their pedestrian identities.

Unconcerned with the practical function of his actions, the dancer is engrossed exclusively in their `` motional content ''.

Thus, there is freshness not only in the individual movements of the dance but in the shape of their continuity as well.

So great a man could not but understand, too, that the thing that moves men to sacrifice their lives is not the error of their thought, which their opponents see and attack, but the truth which the latter do not see -- any more than they see the error which mars the truth they themselves defend.

`` This is our tultul, a jumping platform, aku.

There is no distinction made in Scotland between assault and battery ( which is not a term used in Scots law ), although, as in England and Wales, assault can be occasioned without a physical attack on another's person, as demonstrated in Atkinson v. HM Advocate wherein the accused was found guilty of assaulting a shop assistant by simply jumping over a counter wearing a ski mask.

It attracts competitors from all of the main show jumping nations and is carried live on Irish national television.

This same process is employed by frogs, which use elastic tendons to increase jumping distance.

jumping, is an activity where participants jump from fixed objects and use a parachute to break their fall.

While BASE jumps had been made prior to that time, the El Capitan activity was the effective birth of what is now called BASE jumping.

BASE jumping is significantly more dangerous than similar sports such as skydiving from aircraft, and is currently regarded by many as a fringe extreme sport or stunt.

Heisenberg never used the term collapse, preferring to speak of the wavefunction representing our knowledge of a system, and collapse as the " jumping " of the wavefunction to a new state, representing a " jump " in our knowledge which occurs once a particular phenomenon is registered by the experimenter ( i. e. when an observation takes place ).

Cross-country skiing is part of the Nordic skiing sport family, which includes ski jumping, Nordic combined ( cross-country skiing and ski jumping ), Biathlon ( skiing and rifle marksmanship ) and ski-orienteering ( which included map navigation along snow trails and tracks ).

Diving is the sport of jumping or falling into water from a platform or springboard, sometimes while performing acrobatics.

Colliding with other players whilst trying to catch or mark the ball is part of the game, however tackling a player jumping in the air to catch a ball is strictly not allowed.

Bumping a player who is jumping to catch the ball is not allowed unless the player is deemed to have intentions to contest for possession or have " eyes for the ball ".

This might take the form of a Meta evolved GP for producing human walking algorithms which is then used to evolve human running, jumping, etc.

Steel tends to be preferred in sports where a strong, long-wearing shoe is needed, such as polo, eventing, show jumping, and western riding events.

A jump is considered a fail if the bar is dislodged by the action of the jumper whilst jumping or the jumper touches the ground or break the plane of the near edge of the bar before clearance.

They are allowed in many types of competition, especially those where speed or jumping may be required, but are not allowed in most " flat " classes at horse shows, though an exception is made in a few classes limited exclusively to young or " green " horses who may not yet be fully trained.

A couple jumping the broom. Jumping the broom is a phrase and custom relating to wedding ceremonies in different cultural traditions, found in " many diverse cultures, those of Africa − Europe including Scotland, Hungary and Gypsy culture ", all of which " include brooms at wedding rituals.

The tragic stage is a platform extending precariously between heaven and hell.

Behind this is a minber or Moslem pulpit and near it a raised platform with golden grillwork, where the emperors and, after them, the sultans, sat.

A gyro-stabilized platform system, using restrained gyros, is well suited for automatic leveling because of the characteristics of the gyro-platform-servo combination.

The restrained gyro-stabilized platform with reasonable response characteristics operates with an approximate equation of motion, neglecting transient effects, as follows: Af where U is a torque applied about the output axis of the controlling gyro.

The platform angle **yf is the angle about which the gyro is controlling.

Thus if the gyro and platform-controller combination maintains the platform with zero angular deviation about the **yf axis, the system can be rotated with an angular velocity Af if a torque is supplied to the gyro output axis Aj.

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

The platform is initially off level by the angle Aj.

The angle generated by the platform servo **yf multiplied by G is the effective acceleration acting on the accelerometer.

Finally, the gyro-stabilized platform characteristic is represented by Af.

The system as indicated in Fig. 7-2 is fundamental and simple because the transient effects of both the platform servo and the accelerometer have been neglected.

The equation relating input acceleration to output platform angle is Af.

When the system is arranged for automatic leveling, the platform angles respond to any horizontal components of acceleration acting on the accelerometers.

The effect is that the platform returns from an off-level position at a rapid rate until it is nearly level, at which point the platform is controlled by a proportional servo with low enough frequency response so that the noise has little effect on the leveling process.

The automatic leveling system described in this section is readily adaptable to a gyro-stabilized platform consisting of three integrating gyros.

This leveling system will hold the platform on-level, automatically, as long as the system is actuated.
