We find, in the first place, that the students overwhelmingly approve of higher education, positively evaluate the job their own institution is doing, do not accept most of the criticisms levelled against higher education in the public prints, and, on the whole, approve of the way their university deals with value-problems and value inculcation.

The blunter the knife, the higher is the value of Af.

The numerals are arranged with their lowest value digit to the right, with higher value positions added to the left.

Soil with a pH value higher than 7. 3 is normally referred to as alkaline.

However the carcass value of double-muscled animals may be enhanced due to increased dressing yield, lean carcass content, and upgrading of some cuts leading to a higher proportion of higher valued cuts.

After all boxes have finished playing, the dealer's hand is resolved by drawing cards until the hand busts or achieves a value of 17 or higher ( a dealer total of 17 including an ace, or " soft 17 ", must be drawn to in some games and must stand in others ).

When bearing off, a player may also move a lower die roll before the higher even if that means ' the full value of the higher die ' is not fully utilized.

He essentially claimed that the foreign assets were not carried on the books at their higher, truer value.

Due to potentially large differences in value over slight differences in a coin's condition, some commercial coin dealers will repeatedly resubmit a coin to a grading service in the hope of a higher grade.

Reputable coin dealers eschew the growing tendency to sell higher graded coins via sales pitches asserting that grading removes subjectivity as to the value of mint state coins.

* Median – the middle value that separates the higher half from the lower half of the data set

Some of the higher raw moments do exist and have a value of infinity, for example the raw second moment:

Coins made for paying bills and general monetized use are usually used for lower-valued units, and banknotes for the higher values ; also, in many money systems, the highest value coin made for circulation is worth less than the lowest-value note.

In the last hundred years, the face value of circulation coins has usually been higher than the gross value of the metal used in making them ; exceptions occurring when inflation causes the metal value to surpass the face value, causing the minting authority to change the composition and the old coins to begin to disappear from circulation ( see Gresham's Law.

Exceptions to the rule of coin face-value being higher than content value, also occur for some bullion coins made of silver or gold ( and, rarely, other metals, such as platinum or palladium ), intended for collectors or investors in precious metals.

A cutoff value has been suggested to be 0. 73, with a higher value indicating presence of multiple sclerosis.

In light of the scholarly reappraisals engendered by the higher criticism this is a most remarkable statement, particularly coming from one who was well known for his antifundamentalist views.

In exchange for higher price supports, growers pledged reduction in planted acreage.

for example, if one driver puts on 22,000 miles per year and another driver 8,000 miles per year, their cars will be switched so that both cars will have 30,000 miles after two years, rather than 44,000 miles ( and related higher maintenance costs ) and 16,000 miles respectively ''.

The increase stems largely from the growing complexity of and higher degree of maintenance required for newer weapons and equipment.

On the other hand, the new authority of $3,825 million proposed for missile procurement ( excluding research and construction ) in 1961 is $581 million higher than for 1960.

In the industrial field, prospects for higher expenditures on electronic testing and measuring equipment are also quite bright.

Rates for American cars are somewhat higher, ranging from about $8.00 a day up to $14.00 a day for a Chevrolet Convertible, but the rate per kilometer driven is roughly the same as for the larger European models.

The radius is calculated from the mass by assuming spheres of density Af except for the smallest particles, which must have a higher mass density to remain in the solar system in the presence of solar-radiation pressure.

This is much higher than the nickel content of terrestrial dusts and sediments and provides a basis for the determination of the meteoritic mass influx.

Related to this is the fact that most of the higher religions define for the individual his place in the universe and give him a feeling that he is relatively secure in an ordered, dependable universe.

In this respect it would seem that the greater the social distance between the Brandywine population and the white and Negro populations within the same general locality, the greater the possibility for higher morale and solidarity within the Brandywine population.

In turn, higher fertility rates for this population provide a means of increasing the numerical quantity of the population, allowing for the possibility of greater stability and unity.

`` Increased boundary maintenance may be achieved, for example, by assigning a higher primacy or evaluation to activities characteristic of the external pattern.

The position of receptionist was opened in a large office and an announcement was made to the other girls already working that they could apply for this job which had higher prestige and slightly higher salary than typing and clerking positions.

It will be seen that where the scope is similar, the Athabascan ratios come out somewhat higher ( as indeed they ought to with a total ratio of 2.8 as against 3.5 or 4: 5 ) except for verbs, where alone the Athabascan ratio is lower.

Needless to say, strong hands are not eager to be joined by weak hands, for this increases the risk that they will have to absorb what these weak hands unload on the way up, at higher prices, during the run-up phase of the campaign.

Under the most favorable assumptions for increase, the Bureau of the Census projects that the annual rate of household formations will rise from about 883,000 in the last two years of the Fifties to an annual rate of about 1,018,000 in the first five years of the Sixties, and to a slightly higher annual rate of 1,083,000 in the second half of the decade.

Accordingly, the expanding markets for consumer goods and housing occasioned by the higher rate of household formation should enhance the general economic prospects of the Sixties.

For expository purposes, this is best treated as a model which spells out the conditions under which an important industry affected with the public interest would find it profitable to raise wages even in the absence of union pressures for higher wages.

Similarly, higher levels of GNP do not, in themselves, provide grounds for raising prices, but they do relax some of the pressure on the industry so that it can raise prices higher for a given wage increase.

The relative biological effectiveness ( RBE ) of alpha radiation is higher than that of beta or gamma radiation.

In 1913, Soddy also showed that an atom moves lower in atomic number by two places on alpha emission, higher by one place on beta emission.

The decay data for the recently discovered isotope was confirmed, although the alpha energy was slightly higher.

The technique aims to reach and sustain a higher state of mental functioning, called alpha state, where brainwave frequency is eight to thirteen Hz.

There are two variants of the estrogen receptor, alpha ( ER-α ) and beta ( ER-β ) and many phytoestrogens display somewhat higher affinity for ER-β compared to ER-α.

Furthermore, particle microbeam studies show that passage of even a single alpha particle ( e. g. from radon and its progeny ) through cell nuclei is highly mutagenic, and that alpha radiation may have a higher mutagenic effect at low doses ( even if a small fraction of cells are hit by alpha particles ) than predicted by linear no-threshold model, a phenomenon attributed to bystander effect.

An interesting characteristic of Population II stars is that despite their lower overall metallicity, they often have a higher relative abundance of alpha elements ( O, Si, Ne, etc.

If an asset's return is even higher than the risk adjusted return, that asset is said to have " positive alpha " or " abnormal returns ".

Investors are constantly seeking investments that have higher alpha.

When this leucine is replaced with a proline residue the alpha helix is broken, introducing a conformational change to the C-Terminal domain, separating it from the N-Terminal domain enough to promote higher activity of the protein.

DXT1 does not store alpha data enabling higher compression ratios.

Taking these factors into account, the maximum alpha value for D-T fusion neutrons in plutonium ( density 19. 8 g / cm³ ) is some 8 times higher than for an average fission neutron ( 2. 5 vs 3 ).

The H-reflex test is performed using an electric stimulator, which gives usually a square-wave current of short duration and small amplitude ( higher stimulations might involve alpha fibers, causing an F-wave, compromising the results ), and an EMG set, to record the muscle response.

The alpha channel stores transparency information — the higher the value, the more opaque that pixel is.

While officially alpha, this brings higher stability to R5, as well as opening up the application base available.

Windows XP and higher will use a 32-bit image in less than True color mode by constructing an AND mask based on the alpha channel ( if one does not reside with the image already ) if no 24-bit version of the image is supplied in the ICO / CUR file.

Linear alpha olefins are a range of industrially important alpha-olefins, including 1-butene, 1-hexene, 1-octene, 1-decene, 1-dodecene, 1-tetradecene, 1-hexadecene, 1-octadecene and higher blends of C < sub > 20 </ sub >- C < sub > 24 </ sub >, C < sub > 24 </ sub >- C < sub > 30 </ sub >, and C < sub > 20 </ sub >- C < sub > 30 </ sub > ranges.

The predominant application of 1-decene is in making polyalphaolefin synthetic lubricant basestock ( PAO ) and to make surfactants in a blend with higher linear alpha olefins.
