At no time does he seem to have proposed marriage, and Mrs. King was evidently torn between a concern for her daughter's emotions and the desire to believe that the friendship might be continued without harm to her reputation.

He had preached a short sermon, trying to talk man-to-man to the audience, to tell them who he was, what he had done in Macon and Birmingham, and what he proposed to do here.

When it was proposed to rebuild the church, Wilson found that the terms for a new mortgage were very high.

The work program, as it was originally proposed, was to take five years to complete.

Its building was first proposed in 1791, when a group of citizens, mostly Newburyport men, petitioned the General Court for an act of incorporation.

He proposed a fresh theory of alkalis which later was accepted in chemical practices.

It was proposed that aerated lagoons be used to eliminate the problem at the existing oxidation ponds and to provide the necessary treatment for the additional development.

A third concept was proposed in 1923 by Gilbert N. Lewis which includes reactions with acid-base characteristics that do not involve a proton transfer.

An alternative classification, though one with much less currency among Altaicists, was proposed by John C. Street ( 1962 ), according to which Turkic-Mongolic-Tungusic forms one grouping and Korean-Japanese-Ainu another, the two being linked in a common family that Street designated as " North Asiatic ".

The group of elements is more diverse than the lanthanides and therefore it was not until 1945 that Glenn T. Seaborg proposed the most significant change to Mendeleev's periodic table, by introducing the actinides.

The concept of an atom as an indivisible component of matter was first proposed by early Indian and Greek philosophers.

The club was originally founded as a football team in 1891, with the name Buenos Aires English High School although it was obliged to change its name to Alumni Athletic Club ( the name was proposed by a former student of the English High School ) in 1901.

This request was immediately approved in a meeting presided by Carlos Bowers, who had proposed the name " Alumni " to the original football team 50 years before.

Iuliu Maniu ( 1873 – 1953 ) was prime minister with an agrarian cabinet from 1928 to 1930, but the Great Depression made proposed reforms impossible.

In our current understanding of physics, the Bohr model is called a semi-classical model because of its quantization of angular momentum, not primarily because of its relationship with electron wavelength, which appeared in hindsight a dozen years after the Bohr model was proposed.

The 1976 definition of the astronomical unit was incomplete, in particular because it does not specify the frame of reference in which time is to be measured, but proved practical for the calculation of ephemerides: a fuller definition that is consistent with general relativity was proposed, and " vigorous debate " ensued until in August 2012 the International Astronomical Union adopted the current definition of 1 astronomical unit = 149597870700 meters.

Now, of course, that the Russians are the nuclear villains, radiation is a nastier word than it was in the mid, when the US was testing in the atmosphere.

It could have continued testing to the full on the grounds that the radiation danger was far less than the danger of Communist world domination.

Forty-nine hours after an atomic burst the radiation intensity is only about 1 percent of what it was an hour after the explosion.

Steady radiation which was presumably of thermal origin was observed from Venus at 3.15 and 9.4 cm, and from Mars and Jupiter at 3.15 cm in 1956 ( Mayer, McCullough, and Sloanaker, 1958, A, B, C ), and from Saturn at 3.75 cm in 1957 ( Drake and Ewen, 1958 ).

In addition, the inner surface of the carbon shield was covered with aluminum foil to reduce radiation.

This temperature was taken as environmental temperature to which the anode holder was exposed as far as radiation is concerned.

The radiation loss from the anode surface was computed according to Af where Af is the mean of the fourth powers of the temperatures Af and Af calculated analogously to equation ( 1 ).

The x-ray diffraction pattern of the material, taken with CuK**ya radiation, indicated the presence of no extra lines and was in good agreement with the pattern of Douglass.

The Bohr model of the atom fixed the problem of energy loss from radiation from a ground state ( by declaring that there was no state below this ), and more importantly explained the origin of spectral lines.

The death of Marie Curie at age 66 from leukemia was probably caused by prolonged exposure to high doses of ionizing radiation, but it is not clear if this was due to alpha radiation or X-rays.

The trait arose a number of times in different groups during the Cenozoic, and in each instance was immediately followed by an adaptive radiation.

While the scientific community was once divided between supporters of the Big Bang and those of alternative cosmological models, most scientists became convinced that some version of the Big Bang scenario best fit observations after the discovery of the cosmic microwave background radiation in 1964, and especially when its spectrum ( i. e., the amount of radiation measured at each wavelength ) was found to match that of thermal radiation from a black body.

The other was Lemaître's Big Bang theory, advocated and developed by George Gamow, who introduced big bang nucleosynthesis ( BBN ) and whose associates, Ralph Alpher and Robert Herman, predicted the cosmic microwave background radiation ( CMB ).

This was the point where the canine radiation began.

The grass in the meadows came fast, now that the warm weather was here.

It was a relief when they finally came.

Macklin was the third man to come out, and he came unhurriedly.

Out in the center of the circle the farmer, who was Dan, wasted no time when they came to the line, `` The farmer choose his wife ''.

I was so scared well, I just ran to my car and came here ''.

He was looking out on the dark waters of the Lake when I came upon him and without wasting words I smacked him hard across the face.

As she was rather tired this evening, her simple `` Thank you for the use of your bath '' -- when she sat down opposite him -- spoken in a low voice, came across with coolnesses of intelligence and control.

She came from Ohio, from what she called a `` small farm '' of two hundred acres, as indeed it was to farmer-type farmers.

`` When I came up, damnit, I thought I was going down.

I came up maybe fifty feet before I knew what was happening ''.

As he reached for the door there was a knock on it and when he opened he found Artie, who came in and sat down on a bunk.

The enemy came looming around a bend in the trail and Matsuo took a hasty shot, then fled without knowing the result, ran until breath was a pain in his chest and his legs were rubbery.

The only evidence of occupation came from the chimney, which was belching out thick smoke.

And so when Miss Langford came to teach at the one-room Chestnut school, where Jack was a pupil in the eighth grade, the Woman of Jack's mind assumed the teacher's face and figure.

When he came back to the schoolhouse, his mind was made up.

It was our hope to educate him and to give him his freedom when the right time came, for he was a bright and friendly youth who seemed worthy of our interest.

Dr. Lalaurie and I didn't even know he was in the house until the night of our ball when he came down the stairs ''.

In 1961 the first important legislative victory of the Kennedy Administration came when the principle of national responsibility for local economic distress won out over a `` state's-responsibility '' proposal -- provision was made for payment for unemployment relief by nation-wide taxation rather than by a levy only on those states afflicted with manpower surplus.

for another, it was here that one of the old caravan routes came in.

Though the four boys and two girls, the youngest nineteen years of age, the oldest twenty-four, came from varying backgrounds and had different professional and personal interests, there was surprising agreement among them.

The difference came down to this: The Southern States insisted that the United States was, in last analysis, what its name implied -- a Union of States.

On his father's side he was of German descent, on his mother's he came of the old Swedish nobility.

And just as `` Laurie '' Lawrence was first attracted to bright Jo March, who found him immature by her high standards, and then had to content himself with her younger sister Amy, so Joe Jastrow, who had also been writing Henrietta before he came to Johns Hopkins, had to content himself with her younger sister, pretty Rachel.

Miriam was stopped at the Taliesin gate, and William Weston, now the estate foreman, came out to parley.
