Behind him lay the Low Countries, where men were still completing the cathedrals that a later Florentine would describe as `` a malediction of little tabernacles, one on top of the other, with so many pyramids and spires and leaves that it is a wonder they stand up at all, for they look as though they were made of paper instead of stone or marble '' ; ;

( c ) Ligeantia localis, by operation of law, when a friendly alien enters the country, because so long as they are in the country they are within the Sovereign's protection, therefore they owe the Sovereign a local obedience or allegiance ( R v Cowle ( 1759 ) 2 Burr 834 ; Low v Routledge ( 1865 ) 1 Ch App 42 ; Re Johnson, Roberts v Attorney-General 1 Ch 821 ; Tingley v Muller 2 Ch 144 ; Rodriguez v Speyer AC 59 ; Johnstone v Pedlar 2 AC 262 ; R v Tucker ( 1694 ) Show Parl Cas 186 ; R v Keyn ( 1876 ) 2 Ex D 63 ; Re Stepney Election Petn, Isaacson v Durant ( 1886 ) 17 QBD 54 );

An alien, coming into a colony also became, temporarily a subject of the Crown, and acquired rights both within and beyond the colony, and these latter rights could not be affected by the laws of that colony ( Routledge v Low ( 1868 ) LR 3 HL 100 ; 37 LJ Ch 454 ; 18 LT 874 ; 16 WR 1081, HL ; Reid v Maxwell ( 1886 ) 2 TLR 790 ; Falcon v Famous Players Film Co 2 KB 474 ).

The contagion spread fast ; everywhere sails were seen unfurling, and towers and other heavy fighting gear going by the board.

** In the Star Trek: Enterprise episodes " Demons " and " Terra Prime " ( both 2005 ) it is revealed that Mars is in the process of being terraformed by use of the Verteron array which redirects comets to crashland on the planet's surface ; by 2155 the atmosphere had been sufficiently altered so that, in the lowlands, Humans could breathe the air unassisted, though temperatures were still cold enough to require thermal gear.

The clutch is pressed to the floor only to allow smooth engagement of low gears when starting from a full stop ; when moving, the clutch pedal is pressed only far enough to break torque for gear changes.

Double-clutching allows the driver to control the engine and transmission revolutions to synchronize, so that a smooth shift can be made ; for example, when upshifting, the accelerator pedal is released and the clutch pedal is depressed while the gear lever is moved into neutral, the clutch pedal is then released and quickly pushed down again while the gear lever is moved to the next higher gear.

Almost all heavy truck transmissions are of the " range and split " ( double H shift pattern ) type, where range change and so &# 8209 ; called half gears or splits are air operated and always preselected before the main gear selection.

* July 26 – Charles Creighton and James Hargis of Missouri begin their return journey to Los Angeles, driving 11, 555 km using only a reverse gear ; the trip lasts the next 42 days.

The so-called interrupter gear did not come into use until Anthony Fokker developed a synchronization device which had a large impact on air combat ; however, Garros also had a significant role in the process of achieving this goal.

Other sources specifically exclude racing bicycles from the definition, using the term to mean a bicycle of a similar style but built more for endurance and less the fast bursts of speed desired in a racing bicycle ; as such, they usually have more gear combinations and fewer hi-tech racing features.

The fuselage was hinged for shipboard stowage ; for ditching the plane had a hydrovane ahead of the undercarriage as well as air-bag floatation gear.

They recognized there was a precise mechanism followed by reactionaries to defuse the role of subversive artists and intellectuals, that is, to reframe them as separated from the most topical events, and divert from them the taste for the new that may dangerously appeal the masses ; after such separation, such artworks are sterilized, banalized, degraded, and can be safely integrated into the official culture and the public discourse, where they can add new flavors to old dominant ideas and play the role of a gear wheel in the mechanism of the society of the spectacle.

Some multiturn potentiometers have a linear resistive element with a slider which moves along it moved by a worm gear ; others have a helical resistive element and a wiper that turns through 10, 20, or more complete revolutions, moving along the helix as it rotates.

Johnson fell unconscious after this duel and was dragged from the battlefield ; in addition to his five wounds, twenty other bullets had hit his horse and gear.

The use of wheels, whether linked by friction or gear teeth, to redirect motion or gain speed or torque, is typical ; many clockworks have been constructed primarily to serve as visible or implicit tours de force of mechanical ingenuity in this area.

The air motor spins much too fast to be used directly on the flywheel of the engine ; instead a large gearing reduction, such as a planetary gear, is used to lower the output speed.

The band flew to Los Angeles for a hectic audition ; Caws had the flu, and they had to rent gear.

Note drive gear on the right-hand side ; this type has no electromagnet for stepping.

His description is as follows: " The ventricular muscle is thrown into a state of irregular arrhythmic contraction, whilst there is a great fall in the arterial blood pressure, the ventricles become dilated with blood as the rapid quivering movement of their walls is insufficient to expel their contents ; the muscular action partakes of the nature of a rapid incoordinate twitching of the muscular tissue … The cardiac pump is thrown out of gear, and the last of its vital energy is dissipated in the violent and the prolonged turmoil of fruitless activity in the ventricular walls.

The mangonel was loaded by lowering a rope with a hook at its end ; this hook was tied to another rope connected to a " pulling " system ( this could be a pulley compound, a gear compound, or even an animal traction system ) to pull the rope and lower the main rod.

Napier-Bell said of Bolan that after the first disastrous electric gig, " He didn't have the courage to try it again ; it really had been a blow to his ego .... Later he told everyone he'd been forced into going acoustic because Track had repossessed all his gear.

The C5 was poorly designed ; it was heavy, had only one gear and had no adjustment for the distance between the pedals and the seat which is important to get a comfortable pedaling position.

On an upright bicycle, if a high gear is engaged, the rider may use one leg to gain minimal momentum and stand on the pedals and use his upper body to balance the bike ; this is not possible on a 2-wheeled recumbent bicycle.

Prior to about 1970 in the United States, climbing relied mainly on pitons ; other types of gear such as nuts, Hexcentrics, Tricams and spring-loaded cams were largely unknown or did not exist.

If a climber is soloing — climbing by him-or herself — the climber removes placed gear while rappelling back down the climb ; if climbing with friends, the second person will clean the gear during his or her ascent up the pitch.

On average, the Atlantic is the saltiest major ocean ; surface water salinity in the open ocean ranges from 33 to 37 parts per thousand ( 3. 3 – 3. 7 %) by mass and varies with latitude and season.

In contrast with other continents, it is marked by the comparatively small area of either very high or very low ground, lands under occupying an unusually small part of the surface ; while not only are the highest elevations inferior to those of Asia or South America, but the area of land over is also quite insignificant, being represented almost entirely by individual peaks and mountain ranges.

Bluetooth is a standard wire-replacement communications protocol primarily designed for low power consumption, with a short range ( power-class-dependent, but effective ranges vary in practice ; see table below ) based on low-cost transceiver microchips in each device.

The most commonly used grading systems are the Fontainebleau system which ranges from 1 to 8c +, and the John Sherman V-grade system, beginning at V0 and increasing by integers to a current top grade of proposed V16 ( The Wheel of Life by Dai Koyamada in the Grampians, Australia ; The Game, by Daniel Woods, Boulder Canyon, CO ; Lucid Dreaming, by Paul Robinson.

Both shorter and smaller in volume than the Chari, it flows northeast for 960 kilometers ; its volume ranges from five to eighty-five cubic meters per second.

Khmer temples were typically enclosed by a concentric series of walls, with the central sanctuary in the middle ; this arrangement represented the mountain ranges surrounding Mount Meru, the mythical home of the gods.

The number of Sabor representatives ranges from 100 to 160 ; they are elected by popular vote to serve four year terms.

This includes looking for living examples of animals that are considered extinct, such as dinosaurs ; animals whose existence lacks physical evidence but which appear in myths, legends, or are reported, such as Bigfoot and Chupacabra ; and wild animals dramatically outside their normal geographic ranges, such as phantom cats or " ABCs " ( an initialism commonly used by cryptozoologists that stands for Alien Big Cats ).

For example, the cofinality of ω² is ω, because the sequence ω · m ( where m ranges over the natural numbers ) tends to ω² ; but, more generally, any countable limit ordinal has cofinality ω.

Litter size ranges from one to 19 pups ; the average is six.

Realizing that iron was more difficult to pierce with breech-loaded cannon, Armstrong designed rifled muzzle-loading guns, which proved successful ; The Times reported: " even the fondest believers in the invulnerability of our present ironclads were obliged to confess that against such artillery, at such ranges, their plates and sides were almost as penetrable as wooden ships.

Investigations of ligand families ( e. g. amino acids or oligo peptides ) proved that there is a fitting of ranges ( amplitudes ; number of responder cells ) and chemotactic activities: chemoattractant moiety is accompanied by wide ranges, while chemorepellent character by narrow ranges.

This percentage ranges from 0. 00 % in Romania and the United Arab Emirates ; to 0. 05 % in Australia, South Africa, and Germany ; to 0. 08 % in the United Kingdom, the United States, and New Zealand.

In particular, the pitch of calls varies, with larger species producing deeper sounds ; overall, the frequency of felid calls ranges between 50 – 10, 000 hertz.

Firing ranges often designate a direction in which it is safe to point a firearm ; almost universally this is downrange into a backstop which is designed to contain bullets and eliminate potential ricochets.

However, the SGML concept of generalized markup is based on elements ( nested annotated ranges with attributes ) rather than merely print effects, with also the separation of structure and processing ; HTML has been progressively moved in this direction with CSS.
