Rather than the traditional format established by Dungeons & Dragons, which often involved the characters wandering randomly through caves or tunnels and fighting different types of monsters, Sandy Petersen introduced the concept of the Onion Skin: Interlocking layers of information and nested clues that lead the Player Characters from seemingly minor investigations into a missing person to discovering mind-numbingly awful, global conspiracies to destroy the world.

Rather than using theories as starting points, casuistry begins with an examination of cases.

" Rather than aspiring to compassion and wisdom, people can easily fall prey to the vices of cruelty, madness

Rather, unless totally drenched, it tends to retain its basic springy puffiness.

Rather, it was a totally new creation, this time in the form of a peerage title.

Rather, original sin is the real and actual sin of Adam, passed on to his descendants ; rather than remaining until death ( or in the case of the damned, for all eternity ), it can be removed by the sacrament of baptism ( according to the new testament, baptism is only the first step in removing sin, sin is only removed once the individual is enveloped in the holy spirit ).

" Rather than designing new art objects, Asher typically alters the existing environment, by repositioning or removing artworks, walls, facades, etc.

Rather than repeal the Rights of the Terminally Ill Act ( which it could have done ), the Commonwealth Parliament instead amended the Northern Territory ( Self-Government ) Act ( the act under which the Commonwealth Parliament has delegated legislative power to the Northern Territory Legislative Assembly -- effectively the territory's " constitution " or " charter "), removing the Territory's constitutional power to pass any law permitting euthanasia.

Rather than requiring the explicit allocation and deallocation of memory, the ScriptX garbage collector ran independently in a background thread, rearranging objects in memory while removing objects that were no longer needed.

Rather than having a separate filter for removing the toxic chemicals, they consisted of a gas-permeable hood worn over the head which was treated with chemicals.

Rather it was a 49g +, also with an ARM processor ( unlike the 48g ), but with reduced memory, no expansion via an SD memory card, lower clock speed, and a smaller screen.

Rather than spinning uselessly in a tight loop waiting for data, sporadically reducing the clock speed in this manner helps to keep the processor core cool and to extend battery life in portable computing devices.

Rather than sign off for the early hours of the morning ( as was standard practice until the early 1970s in larger markets and until the mid 1980s in smaller ones ), TV stations now fill the time with syndicated programming, reruns of prime time television shows or the local late news o ' clock news, or 30-minute advertisements, known as infomercials, and in the case of CBS and ABC, overnight network news programs.

Rather than go for the win in regulation, Martz made the controversial decision to run out the clock and settle for a game-tying field goal and overtime.

Rather, his innovation was to take a strategy whose primary purpose had always been simply stopping the clock, and employ that strategy in an entirely different fashion: with a primary purpose of minimizing the opposition's scoring.

Rather than varying (" modulating ") the amplitude of a radio wave to encode an audio signal, the new method varied the frequency.

Rather than setting up a timing system, the kludge was to make the internal wires extra-long, increasing the distance and thus increasing the time the electrical signal took to reach its destination.

Rather it was the culmination of a group of individuals each having expertise in specific disciplines including but not limited to system engineering, operational analysis, cost benefit analysis, message standards, software development, communications, signal processing, vulnerability analysis, error detection and correction, antenna design, multipath analysis, electromagnetic compatibility mechanical engineering, navigation, specification generation and others.

Rather, the loudness in sones is, at least very nearly, a power law function of the signal intensity, with an exponent of 0. 3.

Rather than having a local oscillator, the 19 kHz pilot tone provides an in-phase reference signal used to reconstruct the missing carrier wave from the 38 kHz signal.

Rather than converting the envelope of the signal into the decoded waveform like an envelope detector, the product detector takes the product of the modulated signal and a local oscillator, hence the name.

Rather than viewing a 1-dimensional signal ( a function, real or complex-valued, whose domain is the real line ) and some transform ( another function whose domain is the real line, obtained from the original via some transform ), time – frequency analysis studies a two-dimensional signal – a function whose domain is the two-dimensional real plane, obtained from the signal via a time – frequency transform.

Rather than providing a sophisticated communication protocol with arbitration between different bits of hardware that might be trying to use the communication channel at the same time, the PDS slot, for the most part, just gave direct access to signal pins on the CPU.

Rather, it was generated directly as a monochrome video signal by means of a monoscope camera.
