She was amazingly light, and so relaxed in his arms that he wasn't even sure she was conscious.

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.

There was a light in Black's front room, but drawn curtains prevented any view of the interior.

Her form was silhouetted and with the strong light I could see the outlines of her body, a body that an artist or anyone else would have admired.

Then the darkness thinned, and there was light again, and then bright sunlight.

All he had to do was light the fuses of the dynamite sticks, run to within ten yards of an open window in the barn and hurl the sticks through.

Hamilton was bent over his desk, drafting a legal paper by the light of a candle.

Lunch was over, and we walked back to the hotel with the light and dark of Paris screaming at us.

In truth, we can say that this broke the power of Senator Joseph McCarthy, who was finally exposed in full light to the American people.

The portrait that had developed, fragmentarily but consistently, was the portrait of a man to whom serious thinking is alien enough that the making of a decision inhibits, when it does not forestall, any ability to review the decision in the light of new evidence.

Outside the office windows, twenty-four stories above Wall Street, a light rain was falling.

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.

The drizzle was slacking off now, but the light was grayer.

The apex, the study where Eugene slept, was light and bright and airy and cheerful.

He was brigadier of the club's locker-room light infantry, and at one time or another declared war on Russia, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, and China.

It was full-of-the-moon ( or a little past ), and nearly light as day.

He was not prosecuted, however, and his case was subsequently reopened, in the light of Sicurella v. United States, 348 U.S. 385 ( 1955 ).

But Schnabel was a great teacher in addition to being a great performer, and the fact that four of the ten versions I listened to are by Schnabel pupils ( Clifford Curzon, Frank Glazer, Adrian Aeschbacher, and Victor Babin ) also sheds light on the master's pedagogical skills.

It was with the assistance of one of the members of this expedition, Lauritz Esmarch, that Oersted succeeded in producing light by creating an electric discharge in mercury vapor through which an electric current was made to flow.

The light beam from the lamp was filtered through a half-standard thickness Corning 1840 filter.

The filtered fluorescent lighting in photolithography cleanrooms contains no ultraviolet or blue light in order to avoid exposing photoresists.

A common example of such radiation is sunlight, which is thermal radiation from the Sun's photosphere and which contains enough ultraviolet light ( before being filtered by the Earth's atmosphere ) to cause ionization in many molecules and atoms.

The Sun's visible atmosphere has other layers above the photosphere: the 2, 000 kilometer-deep chromosphere ( typically observed by filtered light, for example H-alpha ) lies just between the photosphere and the much hotter but more tenuous corona.

Lotte Eisner praised its " opalescent surfaces streaming with reflections, rain, or light: car windows, the glazed leaves of the revolving door reflecting the silhouette of the doorman dressed in a gleaming black waterproof, the dark moss of houses with lighted windows, wet pavements and shimmering puddles ... His camera captures the filtered half-light falling from the street lamps ... it seizes railings through basement windows.

Wavelengths close to the laser line due to elastic Rayleigh scattering are filtered out while the rest of the collected light is dispersed onto a detector.

These windows were entirely glazed with densely colored glass, which resulted in a relatively dark interior – but one which accentuated the richness of the glass and the colored light that filtered through them.

Structural green and blue colours are generated by overlaying chromatophore types to reflect filtered light.

This adaptation allows the fish to see red-pigmented prey, which are normally invisible in the deep ocean environment where red light has been filtered out by the water column.

The color layers in negative papers are actually produced to have speeds which increase from cyan ( red sensitive ) to magenta ( green sensitive ) to yellow ( blue sensitive ), and thus when filtered during printing, the blue light is " normalized " so that there is no crosstalk.

Bacon was later to tell Stephen Spender that he had been very impressed by the work of a photographer who had produced striking effects using mirrors and natural light filtered through screens, but that he could not remember the artist's name.

The plant needs light but filtered sunlight through a window is usually sufficient.

* Infra-red pollution — incident infra-red light is usually filtered on image sensors, using a specific thin film dedicated to this task ( but which may serve an additional purpose in protecting the relatively much more expensive sensor component from contamination and damage ), and so this issue, if truly the result of ir pollution, may be a problem which is independent of the LBCAST technology of the sensor.

Nevertheless, deeper water videography still needs auxiliary light sources to bring out colors filtered out of sunlight by the distance it has travelled through water.

Buildings increased in geometric complexity, brick and plaster were used in addition to stone in the decoration of important public structures, classical orders were used more freely, mosaics replaced carved decoration, complex domes rested upon massive piers, and windows filtered light through thin sheets of alabaster to softly illuminate interiors.

The purple glow of a black light is not the UV light itself, which is invisible, but visible light which escapes being filtered out by the filter material in the glass envelope.

This light is then filtered e. g. via acousto-optic modulators ( AOM, AOTF ) into 1 or up to 8 different wavelengths.

It is a feathery light rock which is calcified from algae filtered by sand and pond scum.

The light emitted by most VFDs contains many colours and can often be filtered to enhance the colour saturation providing a deep green or deep blue, depending on the whims of the product's designers.

Its sensitive handling of light — in particular, natural light filtered into an otherwise unlit interior space — led 19th century art historians to attribute it to Johannes Vermeer, with whose work the painting does bear strong similarities.

The two horses broke from the yard, from the circle of light cast by the lamp still burning in the house, into the darkness.

This light did not penetrate very far back into the hall, and my eyes were hindered rather than aided by the dim daylight entering through the fan vents when I tried to pick out whatever might be lying, or squatting, on the floor below.

He seeks to make his dancers more `` godlike '' by relating them to the impersonal elements of shape, light, color, and sound.

Trevelyan centers too exclusively on Bright, is insufficiently appreciative of the views of Bright's opponents and critics, and makes light of the genuine difficulties faced by Peel.

wept day and night for the sins and blindness of the world had a long walk through the trees and woods by his house, where he constantly walked morning and evening, and even in the depths of the night, alone by himself, for contemplation and the enjoyment of the dispensation of light.

During the discharge the magnetic forces set up by the passage of current cause the edges of the foil to roll inward toward its center line, thus allowing light to pass into the camera.

In the light of these circumstances, as well as the fact that the issue at trial in this respect centered entirely on the Department's recommendation, which petitioner repudiated but which both the appeal board and the courts below found supported by the record, we find no relevancy in the hearing officer's report and notes.

First I make preliminary watercolor sketches in quarter scale ( approximately Af inches ) in which I pay particular attention to the design principles of three simple values -- the lightest light, the middle tone, and the darkest dark -- by reducing the forms of my subject to these large patterns.

A completely new insight into living cells and their structure will be possible by use of a new technique which replaces visible light with ultraviolet radiation and combines a microscope with a color-TV system to view the results.

The video signal is amplified and then switched, in synchronism with the three ultraviolet light sources which are sequenced by the rotating mirror so that during one-twentieth of a second only one wavelength, corresponding to red, green, or blue, is seen.

( Note: Because of light leakage from one ultraviolet source to another, the lights are switched by a commutator-like assembly rotated by a synchronous motor.

With the source of light behind the copy, there is no loss of lumen output, as with conventional boards illuminated by means of reflected light.

But in order to keep Letch in the public eye and out of trouble, I wrote in a part especially for him -- that of a dashing ruffian who `` sees the light '' and is saved by the inspiring example of Mother Cabrini.

The photochemical exchange occurs with a quantum yield of the order of unity in the liquid phase at 65-degrees using light absorbed only by the Af.

The rate of the gas phase exchange reaction appears to be proportional to the first power of the absorbed light intensity indicating that the radical intermediates are removed at the walls or by reaction with an impurity rather than by bimolecular radical combination reactions.

The photochemical reaction cells consisted of 10 mm. i.d. Pyrex tubing, 5.5 cm. long, diffraction effects being minimized by the fact that the light passed through only liquid-glass interfaces and not gas-glass interfaces.
