One of the first mentions of the term " computational chemistry " can be found in the 1970 book Computers and Their Role in the Physical Sciences by Sidney Fernbach and Abraham Haskell Taub, where they state " It seems, therefore, that ' computational chemistry ' can finally be more and more of a reality.

It seems therefore useful to distinguish between cultural imperialism as an ( active or passive ) attitude of superiority, and the position of a culture or group that seeks to complement its own cultural production, considered partly deficient, with imported products.

Pagden has written that " There is no preconquest tradition which places Quetzalcoatl in this role, and it seems possible therefore that it was elaborated by Sahagún and Motolinía from informants who themselves had partially lost contact with their traditional tribal histories " ( Pagden 1986: 467 )

He writes: Man hating among women has no popular name because it has never ( at least not until recently ) achieved apotheosis as a social fact, that is, it has never been ratified into public, culturally recognized and approved institutions (...) As a cultural institution, misogyny therefore seems to stand alone as a gender-based phobia, unreciprocated.

We may remark here that it seems unnecessary to hold that because Matthew and Mark say " two days before the Passover ", while John says " six days " there were, therefore, two distinct anointings following one another.

For tho'all nations count universally by tens ( originally occasioned by the number of digits on both hands ) yet 8 is a far more complete and commodious number ; since it is divisible into halves, quarters, and half quarters ( or units ) without a fraction, of which subdivision ten is uncapable ...." In a later treatise on Octave computation ( 1753 ) Jones concluded: " Arithmetic by Octaves seems most agreeable to the Nature of Things, and therefore may be called Natural Arithmetic in Opposition to that now in Use, by Decades ; which may be esteemed Artificial Arithmetic.

Some physicists have explored the notion that if the dimensionless physical constants had sufficiently different values, our Universe would be so radically different that intelligent life would probably not have emerged, and that our Universe therefore seems to be fine-tuned for intelligent life.

Themistocles seems to have realised that for the Greeks to survive the coming onslaught required there to be a Greek navy which could hope to face up to the Persian navy, and he therefore attempted to persuade the Athenians to build such a fleet.

At least some minimal conception, therefore, seems required.

What Thackeray principally objected to was the glorification of a criminal's deeds ; it therefore seems strange that he would have depicted Becky as such a villainess.

But Liebermann was generally less willing than Chadwick to see the witan's significance as buried under the weight of the royal prerogative: The influence of the king, or at least of kingship, on the constitution of the assembly seems, therefore, to have been immense.

Although recent studies suggest that the Quirinal hill was very important in ancient times, the first hill to be inhabited seems to have been the Palatine ( therefore confirming the legend ), which is also at the center of ancient Rome.

Hume took it in an especially skeptical direction, proposing that there could be no possibility of deducing relationships of cause and effect, and therefore no knowledge is based on reasoning alone, even if it seems otherwise.

Socrates asserts that he owed the impulse to write his work to a certain Theodorus, who is alluded to in the proemium to the second book as " a holy man of God " and seems therefore to have been a monk or one of the higher clergy.

Other historians consider this a weak clue, as " Juliana " was a common name in the gens Anicia, and because Hermogenianus seems to have begotten only one daughter, who took chastity vows ; other possible fathers have therefore been proposed: either Flavius Anicius Probus ( suggested by Settipani ) or, according to some clues, Petronius Maximus.

They are based on highly abstract theories – venerable, academic inventions, half misunderstood by those who are applying them today, and based on assumptions which are contrary to the facts … Our main task, therefore, will be to confirm the reader ’ s instinct that what seems sensible is sensible, and what seems nonsense is nonsense.

It seems that for Persia, and especially for this city, there are only two times: the glorious past and the corrupt, depressing, sterile present.

Indeed, it seems that only in today's Southern fiction does Tobacco Road, with all the traditional trimmings of sowbelly and cornbread and mint juleps, continue to live -- but only as a weary, overexploited phantom.

Willard Thorp, in his new book, American Writing In The Twentieth Century, observes, quite validly it seems: `` Certain subjects are conspicuously absent or have been only lightly touched.

In fact, I can only say this seems to me to follow from a wide, continuous, and properly guided exposure to literary art.

From the outset, she must have realized that marriage with him was out of the question, and although she was displeased by the `` unwarrantable '' interference, it seems probable that she did agree with her mother's suggestion that the poet was `` perhaps '' a man `` most fitted to live & die solitary, & in the love only of the Highest Lover ''.

Since the great flood of these dystopias has appeared only in the last twelve years, it seems fairly reasonable to assume that the chief impetus was the 1949 publication of Nineteen Eighty-Four, an assumption which is supported by the frequent echoes of such details as Room 101, along with education by conditioning from Brave New World, a book to which science-fiction writers may well have returned with new interest after reading the more powerful Orwell dystopia.

The principle of `` bills only '', or `` bills preferably '', seems so strongly accepted by the Federal Reserve that it is difficult to envision conditions which would persuade the authorities to depart radically from it by extending their open market purchases regularly into long-term Government securities.

In fact, his only disciple -- the only person to imitate his style -- was W. S. Graham, who seems to have imitated him without much understanding, and who has since moved on to other methods.

Our leadership in a wide economic boycott of South Africa would be not only in accord, it seems, with the moral conscience of America, not to be denied because we also as a people have widespread injustice in the relations of the races in our own country, but also in accord with our law, U.S. Code Title 19, Section 1307, which forbids the importation of goods made by forced or convict labor.

It seems like only last year that we watched them set out up the hill hand in hand on a rainy day in their yellow raincoats to finger-paint at the grammar school.

The only man alive who seems qualified by his learning, his disposition and his addiction to a baroque luxuriance of language to inherit the literary mantle of Sacheverell Sitwell, Mr. Sansom writes of foreign parts with a dedication to decoration worthy of a pastry chef creating a wedding cake for the marriage of a Hungarian beauty ( her third ) and an American multimillionaire ( his fourth ).

He can shape-shift, speaks only in verse, and lies so well that everything he says seems true.

According to this interpretation, Agathon is mocked in the Thesmophoriazousae not only for his notorious effeminacy, but also for the pretentiousness of his dress: " he seems to think of himself, in all his elegant finery, as a rival to the old Ionian poets, perhaps even to Anacreon himself.

It seems likely that memory constraints were at the root of these differences, as the Apple II ROM had only 10 kilobytes available for the interpreter, and the improved hi-res graphics support was clearly a higher priority.

The one New Testament reference to the city of Armageddon found in Revelation 16: 16 in fact also makes no specific mention of any armies being predicted to one day gather in this city, but instead seems to predict only that " they ( will gather ) the kings together to .... Armageddon.
