Because ballpoint pens are low cost alternatives to both fountain pens and roller-ball pens, they have become largely a disposable product.

Ballpoint pens are often provided free by businesses as a form of advertising — printed with a company's name ; a ballpoint pen is a relatively low cost advertisement that is highly effective ( customers will use, and therefore see, a pen daily ).

Another choice, hickory wood, seems to have a very good blend of hardness and impact resistance, while still having a relatively low cost.

" Lomborg claims to have consistently supported the position that global warming exists, but cost benefit analyses, as calculated by the Copenhagen Consensus ranked climate mitigation initiatives low on a list of international development initiatives when first done in 2004.

It is also being considered to revitalize the Pula Airport ( Istria ) as a destination for low cost airlines.

Currently, the following low cost airlines are flying to Croatia: EasyJet, Flyglobespan, Germanwings, TUIfly, Ryanair, Thomson and Wizz Air.

The overheads of the contact centre are shared by many clients thereby supporting a very cost effective model especially for low volumes of calls.

The silicon cost of an 8051 is now as low as US $ 0. 001, because some implementations use as few as 2, 200 logic gates and take 0. 0127 square millimeters of silicon.

Cattle in the United States are often fed chicken litter due to the high amount of protein and low cost of the feed versus other sources of protein.

However, the PDP-6 proved to be a " hard sell " with customers, as it offered few advantages over similar machines from the better established vendors like IBM or Honeywell, in spite of its low cost around $ 300, 000.

The technique involves using optical lasers to create an interference pattern, which acts as a " lattice ", in which ions or atoms can be placed at very low temperatures.

One might well ask why we should use such a complex method for producing low temperature gases when they could be produced much more easily using liquid helium.

By 1970, a calculator could be made using just a few chips of low power consumption, allowing portable models powered from rechargeable batteries.

To present a high-contrast display these models illuminated the LCD using a filament lamp and solid plastic light guide, which negated the low power consumption of the display.

With this low power consumption came the possibility of using solar cells as the power source, realised around 1978 by such calculators as the Royal Solar 1, Sharp EL-8026, and Teal Photon.

As a result, speech can be encoded at high quality using a relatively low bit rate.

Central power stations became economically practical with the development of alternating current power transmission, using power transformers to transmit power at high voltage and with low loss.

Classical analog filters are IIR filters, and classical filter theory centers on the determination of transfer functions given by low order rational functions, which can be synthesized using the same small number of reactive components.

Other artists go a step further, by using an eight-string guitar with two extra low strings.

Hypoxia also occurs in healthy individuals when breathing mixtures of gases with a low oxygen content, e. g. while diving underwater especially when using closed-circuit rebreather systems that control the amount of oxygen in the supplied air.

For instance, children that attend downgraded schools can greatly benefit from homeschooling ways of learning, using the immediacy and low cost of the Internet.

If these ratios are averaged using an arithmetic mean ( a common error ), high data points are given greater weights than low data points.

Insect pests can be sterilized ( be made incapable of proliferation ) using irradiation at relatively low doses.

PIP with a very low baud rate ( because it had no built-in error correction ) could be used to transfer a small simple version of Kermit from one machine to another over a null modem cable, or failing that, a very very simple version of the Kermit protocol could be hand coded in binary in less than 2K using DDT, the CP / M Dynamic Debugging Tool.

Limousine liberal is a pejorative American political term used to illustrate perceived hypocrisy by a political liberal of upper class or upper middle class status ; including calls for the use of mass transit while frequently using limousines or private jets, claiming environmental consciousness but driving low MPG sports cars or SUVs, or ostensibly supporting public education while actually sending their children to private schools.

LORAN ( LOng RAnge Navigation ) is a terrestrial radio navigation system which enables ships and aircraft to determine their position and speed from low frequency radio signals transmitted by fixed land based radio beacons, using a receiver unit.

More sophisticated models can be made using a combination of etched sheets of brass and low temperature castings.

Analog and digital modulation facilitate frequency division multiplexing ( FDM ), where several low pass information signals are transferred simultaneously over the same shared physical medium, using separate passband channels ( several different carrier frequencies ).

# Adapt pulse shaping or some other filtering to limit the bandwidth and form the spectrum of the equivalent low pass signal, typically using digital signal processing.

But if the true function is highly complex ( e. g., because it involves complex interactions among many different input features and behaves differently in different parts of the input space ), then the function will only be learnable from a very large amount of training data and using a " flexible " learning algorithm with low bias and high variance.

By paying the collectivized peasants low state-controlled prices for their product, and using the surplus thus extracted to pay for industrial development, the state carried out a series of three-year plans, which brought industry's share of the economy from 47 % in 1946 to 70 % in 1959, despite the devastation of the Korean War.

In September 2002, researchers at the Los Alamos National Laboratory briefly created the first known nuclear critical mass using neptunium in combination with shells of enriched uranium ( U-235 ), discovering that the critical mass of a bare sphere of neptunium-237 " ranges from kilogram weights in the high fifties to low sixties ," showing that it " is about as good a bomb material as U-235.

In a declaration game, each player declares ( either verbally or using markers such as chips ) whether he wishes to contest for the high hand or the low hand.

Especially when using the ace-to-five low method, it is possible for one player to have both the low hand and the high hand, and therefore win all of the pot ( called " scooping ," " hogging " the pot, or " going pig ").
