In the chapter on climate change in his 2001 book A Skeptical Environmentalist he states ; " This chapter accepts the reality of man-made global warming but questions the way in which future scenarios have been arrived at and finds that forecasts of climate change of 6 degrees by the end of the century are not plausible.

Skeptical scholars have questioned the historicity of the resurrection story for centuries ; for example, " nineteenth-and early-twentieth-century biblical scholarship dismissed resurrection narratives as late, legendary accounts.

Skeptical hypotheses in philosophy suggest that reality is very different from what we think it is ; or at least that we cannot prove it is not.

Edmond de Goncourt modeled his acrobat-mimes in his The Zemganno Brothers ( 1879 ) upon them ; J .- K. Huysmans ( whose Against Nature would become Dorian Gray's bible ) and his friend Léon Hennique wrote their pantomime Skeptical Pierrot ( 1881 ) after seeing them perform at the Folies Bergère.

Books VII-XI of Against the Mathematicians form an incomplete whole ; scholars believe that at least one, but possibly as many as five books, are missing from the beginning of the work that was originally entitled Skeptical Treatises ( Skeptika Hupomnēmata ).

" This improvement of protocols later led James Randi to list a " straight spoon " award to Phillips in a press release of his " bent spoon " awards, but that award was omitted from the list of awards published by Omni magazine and the Skeptical Inquirer ; it was reported in the latter in a subsequent letter to the editor.

These factors practically insure that no single financing formula is feasible ; ;

It is curious that at its best, the work of this school of painting -- Mark Rothko, Jackson Pollock, Clyfford Still, Robert Motherwell, Willem De-Kooning, and the rest -- resembles nothing so much as the passage painting of quite unimpressive painters: the mother-of-pearl shimmer in the background of a Henry McFee, itself a formula derived from Renoir ; ;

About the 4th century BCE, the paean became merely a formula of adulation ; its object was either to implore protection against disease and misfortune, or to offer thanks after such protection had been rendered.

In order for Thābit's formula to produce an amicable pair, two consecutive Thabit numbers must be prime ; this severely restricts the possible values of n.

Chapters 1: 1-2: 5 are thus a confession of failure ; chapters 2: 6-3: 6 are a major summary and reflection from the Deuteronomists, setting out the over all formula which the stories in the main text will follow: Israel " does evil in the eyes of Yahweh ;" the people are given into the hands of their enemies and cry out to Yahweh ; Yahweh raises up a leader ; the " spirit of Yahweh " comes upon the leader, the enemy is defeated, and peace is regained.

If we wish to implement this filter as a digital filter, we can apply the bilinear transform by substituting for the formula above ; after some reworking, we get the following filter representation:

Determining the satisfiability of a formula in conjunctive normal form where each clause is limited to at most three literals is NP-complete ; this problem is called " 3SAT ", " 3CNFSAT ", or " 3-satisfiability ".

Determining the satisfiability of a formula in which each clause is limited to at most two literals is NL-complete ; this problem is called " 2SAT ".

Determining the satisfiability of a formula in which each clause is a Horn clause ( i. e. it contains at most one positive literal ) is P-complete ; this problem is called Horn-satisfiability.

Checking the existence of such a replacement can be done in linear time ; therefore, the satisfiability of such formulae is in P as it can be solved by first performing this replacement and then checking the satisfiability of the resulting Horn formula.

( Some exceptions exist ; for example, deoxyribose, a component of DNA, has the empirical formula C < sub > 5 </ sub > H < sub > 10 </ sub > O < sub > 4 </ sub >.

The deciduous, or baby teeth, formula in canids is 3 1 3 ; molars are completely absent.

A strong indication of the reliability of Chandrasekhar's formula is that the absolute magnitudes of supernovae of Type Ia are all approximately the same ; at maximum luminosity, M < sub > V </ sub > is approximately-19. 3, with a standard deviation of no more than 0. 3 .< sup >, ( 1 )</ sup > A 1-sigma interval therefore represents a factor of less than 2 in luminosity.

The general formula is set out in section 38 ( 1 ), known as the " 7 / 50 formula ", requires: ( a ) assent from both the House of Commons and the Senate ; ( b ) the approval of two-thirds of the provincial legislatures ( at least seven provinces ) representing at least 50 % of the population ( effectively, this would include at least Quebec or Ontario, as they are the most populous provinces ).

Rather, we say that a real a is definable in the language of arithmetic ( or arithmetical ) if its Dedekind cut can be defined as a predicate in that language ; that is, if there is a first-order formula φ in the language of arithmetic, with two free variables, such that

The formula is more complex than the Otto cycle ( petrol / gasoline engine ) relation that has the following formula ;

Essentially, Euler-MacLaurin summation can be applied whenever Carlson's theorem holds ; the Euler-MacLaurin formula is essentially a result obtaining from the study of finite differences and Newton series.

But when he recognized the strength of the opposition, he favored a compromise ; at any rate he advised Berengar is 1054 to swear to the formula presented to him.

It is interesting, however, that despite this strong upsurge in Southern writing, almost none of the writers has forsaken the firmly entrenched concept of the white-suited big-daddy colonel sipping a mint julep as he silently recounts the revenue from the season's cotton and tobacco crops ; ;
