On April 1, 1959, AMC and Sonotone Corporation announced a joint research effort to consider producing an electric car that was to be powered by a " self-charging " battery.

Fantasía is the second studio album by Franco De Vita released on the Sonotone label.

Just as present technology had to await the explanations of physics, so one might expect that social invention will follow growing sociological understanding.

Such performance is a great tribute to American scientists and engineers, who in the past five years have had to telescope time and technology to develop these long-range ballistic missiles, where America had none before.

AT promotes greater independence by enabling people to perform tasks that they were formerly unable to accomplish, or had great difficulty accomplishing, by providing enhancements to, or changing methods of interacting with, the technology needed to accomplish such tasks.

He had opened the door to technological awards, but had not left instructions on how to deal with the distinction between science and technology.

Called the bloomery process, it produced very soft but ductile wrought iron and, by 800 BC, the technology had spread to Europe.

Originally the word " broadband " had a technical meaning, but became a marketing term for any kind of relatively high-speed computer network or Internet access technology.

The German Army had a greater grasp of the effects of technology on the battlefield, and went on to develop a new form of warfare by which its rivals when it came to the test were hopelessly outclassed.

In this period also started the penetration of Western culture, but most Chinese thought that the Westerners were maybe more advanced in technology and warfare, but that China had primacy in moral and intellectual fields.

The new wave of industrialization based upon information technology had left the Soviet Union desperate for Western technology and credits in order to counter its increasing backwardness.

His design was 95 % completed by June ( which fueled speculation that his engineers had taken technology with them from Commodore ).

All of the logic functions of a calculator had been squeezed into the first " Calculator on a chip " integrated circuits in 1971, but this was leading edge technology of the time and yields were low and costs were high.

The last versions of the Auto-Union 1000S also had disc brakes as option, an early development for this technology.

Its creation was directly attributed to the launching of Sputnik and to U. S. realization that the Soviet Union had developed the capacity to rapidly exploit military technology.

The concentrating lens technology was combined with dual-junction solar cells, which had considerably better performance than the GaAs solar cells that were the state of the art at the time of the mission launch.

Although ion engines had been developed at NASA since the late 1950s, with the exception of the SERT missions in the 1960s, the technology had not been demonstrated in flight.

However RCA had its eye on television broadcasting, and chose not to buy the patents for the FM technology.

Experimentation with sound film technology, both for recording and playback, was virtually constant throughout the silent era, but the twin problems of accurate synchronization and sufficient amplification had been difficult to overcome ( Eyman, 1997 ).

Some historians have speculated that since Rome lacked advanced naval technology the design of the warships was probably copied verbatim from captured Carthaginian triremes and quinqueremes or from ships that had beached on Roman shores due to storms.

Advances in technology have never conclusively proved that the ball crossed the line ; on the contrary, in 1995 the Sunday Times reported that image analysis by researchers at Oxford University had concluded that the whole of the ball did not cross the goal-line, and so a goal should not have been awarded ( Computer blows whistle on England's 1966 World Cup win by Adam Jones and John Davison, 23 July 1995 ).

Gilbert had referred to the new technology in Pinafore in 1878, only two years after the device was invented and before London even had telephone service.

If he had married her, he'd have been asking for trouble.

His plans and dreams had revolved around her so much and for so long that now he felt as if he had nothing.

He knew who was riding after him -- the men he had known all his life, the men who had worked for him, sworn their loyalty to him.

And, for the sake of Julia and Susan, it had to be tried.

Hell, they were fightin' each other so hard they had no time for anyone else.

I saw the clergyman kneel for a moment by the twitching body of the man he had shot, then run back to his position.

For although I had crossed a corner of the hall on my way to the toilet I still could not tell for sure how far to the rear the darkness extended.

I had for some time been hoping, in vain, for one of the dim figures to pass between the fan vents and myself.

It was, I felt, possible that they were men who, having received no tickets for that day, had remained in the hall, to sleep perhaps, in the corners farthest removed from the counter with its overhead light.

No one was behind it, but in the rear wall of the office I noticed, for the first time, a door which had been left partially open.

He had been the auditor for the mining syndicate, and he had stolen fifty thousand dollars of the syndicate's money.

He had done time for the theft.

That mistake, she thought, had cost her dearly these past few days, and she wanted to avoid falling into any more of the traps that the mountain might set for her.

She seemed to have come such a long distance -- too far for her destination which had wilfully been swallowed up in the greedy gloom of the trees.

Never, he'd once told Joyce, had he encountered any man or situation that called for a gun.

A wildcatter had to be prepared for almost any emergency.

That was the day that he had practically mopped up the main street of Big Sands with Aaron McBride, field boss for the Highlands Oil & Gas Company.

Tom had been laying for Aaron McBride for a long time, just waiting to catch him out of line.

He had a legitimate reason for wearing it.

Hank had gathered wood for a cookfire, and his wife was busy at it now.
