Jean Bodin, writing in the sixteenth century, may have been the seminal thinker, but it was the vastly influential John Austin who set out the main lines of the concept as now understood.

Here in these little rooms -- or stages arched open to the sky and river -- they choose a few lines out of the hundreds they may know and sing them according to one of the modes into which Persian music is divided.

Scribe V-shaped lines on the bar and rough out with either a hack saw or a cutting disk in a hand power tool.

The historian can only point out those lines which were major enough to find reflection in our limited evidence, and must hope that future excavations will enrich our understanding.

Either poet could quickly and easily select words or phrases to supply his immediate requirements as he chanted out his lines, because the kennings and the epithets made possible the construction of systems of numerous synonyms for the chief common and proper nouns.

However, in some situations, especially when deep behind enemy lines, the actual attack will be carried out by a platoon, a company-sized unit will be deployed to support the attack group, setting up and maintaining a forward patrol harbour from which the attacking force will deploy, and to which they will retire after the attack.

It should also be pointed out that in LS AAS there is no way to correct for ( the rare case of ) a direct overlap of two atomic lines.

( 1990 ) carried out a radial velocity ( Doppler shift of spectral lines ) study of the star in April and May 1988, which showed variability with a frequency of the order of a few microhertz, the highest peak corresponding to 4. 3 μHz ( 2. 7 days ) with an amplitude of 60 ms < sup >− 1 </ sup >, with a frequency separation of ~ 5 μHz.

The intervening elements react differently at different frequencies of light as they whip in and out of view, causing Alioth to have very strange spectral lines that fluctuate over a period of 5. 1 days.

He used the new passport to acquire a new B-1 / B-2 visa in Jeddah on April 23, again recopying his answers from previously although crossing out the lines regarding Mushabib and previous attempts to acquire a visa.

Caesar knew this would be his last stand as they had run out of supplies and with no lines of retreat they would be at Pompey's mercy and likely slaughtered if they lost the battle.

* In Iliad 9. 165-93 three characters, Phoinix, Odysseus, and Aias set out on an embassy to Achilleus ; however, at line 182 the poet uses a verb in the dual form to indicate that there are only two people going ; at lines 185ff.

Thom Yorke applied a similar method in Radiohead's Kid A ( 2000 ) album, writing single lines, putting them into a hat, and drawing them out at random while the band rehearsed the songs.

At the optical node, the light beam from the fiber is translated back to an electrical signal and carried by coaxial cable distribution lines on utility poles, from which cables branch out to subscriber residences.

Part of the Fremen / Atreides strategy is to wait until a sandstorm shorts out the force field shields of the Harkonnen / Imperial transport ships, disable them with projectile weapons, and then attack with a vast assault force, using giant sandworms under cover of the severe weather to break the enemy lines.

Some Jewish personnel avoided flying over German lines during WWII with ID tags that indicated their religion, and some Jewish personnel avoid the religious designation today out of concern that they could be captured by extremists who are anti-semitic.

The London Docklands Development Corporation ( LDDC ), needing to provide public transport cheaply for the former docks area to stimulate regeneration, considered several proposals and chose a light rail scheme using dock railway infrastructure to link the West India Docks to Tower Hill and to run alongside the Great Eastern line out of London to a northern terminus at, where a disused bay platform at the west of the station was available, for interchange with the Central Line and main lines.

Other figures, such as lines, triangles, or circles, are named by listing a sufficient number of points to pick them out unambiguously from the relevant figure, e. g., triangle ABC would typically be a triangle with vertices at points A, B, and C.

Regional bus lines have been regulated by the provincial administration to protect old transit companies, leading to cartel situations like TLO in the Turku region, but strong regional regulating bodies, like the Helsinki Regional Transport Authority ( HSL / HRT ), whose routes are put out to tender exist as well and will become the norm after the transitionary period during the 2010s.

But if this is the case, then an arbitrary pencil of lines having a point, P, of **zg as vertex is transformed into a ruled surface of order Af having Af generators concurrent at P.

Now consider the transformation of the lines of a bundle with vertex, P, on **zg which is effected by the involution as a whole.

In the second, the fixed elements are the lines which join the vertex, P, to the two intersections of **zg and the plane of the pencil which do not lie on the multiple secant.

Each internal line corresponds to a factor of the corresponding virtual particle's propagator ; each vertex where lines meet gives a factor derived from an interaction term in the Lagrangian, and incoming and outgoing lines carry an energy, momentum, and spin.

A point where lines connect to other lines is an interaction vertex, and this is where the particles meet and interact: by emitting or absorbing new particles, deflecting one another, or changing type.

There are three different types of lines: internal lines connect two vertices, incoming lines extend from " the past " to a vertex and represent an initial state, and outgoing lines extend from a vertex to " the future " and represent the final state.

In QED a vertex always has three lines attached to it: one bosonic line, one fermionic line with arrow toward the vertex, and one fermionic line with arrow away from the vertex.

Feynman diagrams | Feynman diagram elementsThese actions are represented in a form of visual shorthand by the three basic elements of Feynman diagrams: a wavy line for the photon, a straight line for the electron and a junction of two straight lines and a wavy one for a vertex representing emission or absorption of a photon by an electron.

* Vertical ( angles ), a pair of angles sharing the same vertex and bounded by the same pair of lines but are opposite to each other

For example, the theorem from the plane geometry of triangles about the concurrence of the lines joining each vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side ( at the centroid or barycenter ) depends on the notions of mid-point and centroid as affine invariants.

Let a, b, and c be three lines, each of which joins one vertex of a triangle to the midpoint of the opposite side ( each of a, b and c is thus a median ).

If the edges of a graph are thought of as lines drawn from one vertex to another ( as they are usually depicted in illustrations ), then two graphs are homeomorphic to each other in the graph-theoretic sense precisely if they are homeomorphic in the sense in which the term is used in topology.

In the features comparison chart between the Ti and MX lines, it showed that the only " feature " that was missing on the MX was the nfiniteFX II engine — the DirectX 8 programmable vertex and pixel shaders.

The lines connecting the wedge-shaped dogs represent the locking bars at right angles to the tappet bars.

In these respects the vases of the early eighth century represent a culmination of earlier lines of progress.

The double vertical lines represent the saline bridge on the cell.

* Azimuthal or Gnomonic map projections are often used in planning air routes due to their ability to represent great circles as straight lines.

Magnetic field lines represent the magnetic field surrounding Earth.

The lines represent potential calls between phones.

Six lines drawn from the pole he drew a heavy ring to represent the arctic polar circle.

The earliest way of writing qi consisted of three wavy lines, used to represent one's breath seen on a cold day.

Letters were associated with the dial numbers to represent telephone exchange names in communities having more than 9, 999 telephone lines, and additionally given a meaningful mnemonic to facilitate memorization of individual telephone numbers by incorporating their exchange names.

The grid lines do not represent the curvature of space but instead the coordinate system imposed on the curved spacetime, which would be regular grid | rectilinear in a flat spacetime.

These basic shapes are modified with lines jutting from their faces and corners to represent fingers that are not positioned as described above.

Straight lines represent straight fingers ( these may be at an angle to indicate that they are not in line with the palm ; if they point toward or away from the signer, they have a diamond shape at the tip ); curved lines for curved ( cupped ) fingers ; hooked lines for hooked fingers ; right-angle lines, for fingers bent at only one joint ; and crossed lines, for crossed fingers, as shown in the chart at right.
