Anxiety is a generalized mood that can occur without an identifiable triggering stimulus.

It can change from one state to another when initiated by a triggering event or condition, this is called a transition.

Thus the encoder can generate 2 < sup > n </ sup > − 2 codes without triggering an increase in code width.

The firm can also lower prices without triggering a potentially ruinous price war with competitors.

Many factors may disrupt the equilibrium of a giant molecular cloud, triggering a collapse and initiating the burst of star formation that can result in an open cluster.

A trigger condition can range from simple ( such as triggering on a rising or falling edge of a single signal ) to the very complex ( such as configuring the analyzer to decode the higher levels of the TCP / IP stack and triggering on a certain HTTP packet ).

sometimes undetected ) VOX triggering can still occur on background

Inflammatory cytokines can also signal to the central nervous system more directly by specialized transport mechanisms through the blood – brain barrier, via circumventricular organs ( which are outside the barrier ), or by triggering production of eicosanoids in the endothelial cells of the brain vasculature.

Common examples include playing a specific card ( the ace of spades ) or a specific type of card ( any red three ), but triggering conditions can become as complicated as their creator wishes.

In the event that the Bundestag elects an individual for the office of chancellor by a plurality of votes, rather than a majority, the president can, at his or her discretion, either appoint that individual as chancellor or dissolve the Bundestag, triggering a new election.

The triggering stress usually causes an avalanche at the location where force is directly applied to the snowpack ( local trigger ), but can in some cases cause avalanche formation at a different location nearby ( remote trigger ).

By the same token the butterfly can be seen as triggering a tornado, its cause being assumed to be seated in the atmospherical energies already present beforehand, rather than in the movements of a butterfly.

A " dead man's switch " can be used as a fail-deadly instrument, for instance a switch which must be constantly held to prevent the triggering of an explosive.

* Purging type bulimics self-induce vomiting ( usually by triggering the gag reflex or ingesting emetics such as syrup of ipecac ) to rapidly remove food from the body before it can be digested, or use laxatives, diuretics, or enemas.

The Minimoog can be controlled using its built-in, 44-note keyboard, which is equipped with modulation and pitch-bend wheels or by feeding in an external one-volt-per-octave pitch-control voltage and triggering the envelope generators with an inverted Switch trigger ( S-Trigger in Moog terminology ).

* Turn on di / dt — in which the rate of rise of on-state current after triggering is higher than can be supported by the spreading speed of the active conduction area ( SCRs & triacs ).

The F-117 uses passive infrared and low light level television sensor systems to aim its weapons and the F-22 Raptor has an advanced LPI radar which can illuminate enemy aircraft without triggering a radar warning receiver response.

* Determine if the patient can flex and extend the digit past the triggering point without assistance

When the worms die, their Wolbachia symbionts are released, triggering a host immune system response that can cause severe itching, and can destroy optical tissue in the eye.

* Earthquakes underneath or close to the volcano can shake material loose and cause it to collapse triggering a lahar avalanche.

Special purpose, high-energy triggerable spark gaps can be used to rapidly switch high voltages and very high currents for certain pulsed power applications, such as pulsed lasers, railguns, fusion, ultrastrong pulsed magnetic field research, and in the triggering of nuclear bombs.

Outwardly visible signs of TN can sometimes be seen in males who may deliberately miss an area of their face when shaving, in order to avoid triggering an episode.

The " non-event " triggering these can be almost anything, such as failing to log in for 7 consecutive days, not responding to an automated e-mail, ping, a GPS-enabled telephone not moving for a period of time, or merely failing to type a code within a few minutes of a computer's boot.

Although there are only a handful of Quaternary supervolcanoes, supervolcanic eruptions typically cover huge areas with lava and volcanic ash and cause a long-lasting change to weather ( such as the triggering of a small ice age ) sufficient to threaten species with extinction.

Dissidents and regime opponents were forced to ingest the oil in large amounts, triggering severe diarrhoea and dehydration, which could ultimately cause death.

But there is no known triggering event that could serve as the cause of this decay event.

The idea behind these release mechanisms is that triggering them will cause something undesirable to happen, and thus are only used in situations where death or serious injury could occur otherwise.

The typical failure mode occurs when the triggering voltage rises so high that the device becomes ineffective, although lightning surges can occasionally cause a dead short.

There is no record of a cause or a triggering event but mob violence against the Christians in the streets culminated in a public interrogation in the forum by the tribune and town magistrates.

* even though no distinct immune factor has been isolated as a cause of arthritis, there are some experts who believe that the triggering factor may be something like a virus which then disappears from the body after permanent damage is done

Pneumatic or hydraulic tools are particularly likely to be used in mines where there is an explosion risk ( such as underground coal mines ), since they lack any high-power electrical circuitry that might cause a triggering spark.

The more negative membrane potentials in the atrium may cause arrhythmias because of more complete recovery from sodium-channel inactivation, making the triggering of an action potential more likely.

Multiple PTR records can cause problems, however, including triggering bugs in programs that only expect single PTR records and, in the case of a large web server, having hundreds of PTR records can cause the DNS packets to be much larger than normal.

Competing Russian and British interests in Central and South Asia had for years been the cause of a virtual cold war known euphemistically as The Great Game, and the Panjdeh Incident came close to triggering full-scale armed conflict.

In addition to this incompatibility, if a certain patch used an extensive amount of triggering connections, each module would cause a voltage drop sending the logic over into low-state and firing the S-trigger.

The triggering cause is external events, particularly intra-familiar stressors such as spousal infidelity and conflict with in-laws.

Skin picking often occurs as a result of some other triggering cause.

Reports appearing in London in The Times, taken from American newspapers, cite as the triggering cause a disturbance following a misunderstanding at the Chatham Street Chapel, a former theater converted with money from Arthur Tappan for the ministry of Charles Grandison Finney.

In addition to simulating dice rolls to determine damage, a variety of influences including hero abilities and special bonuses determine a unit's luck and morale ratings, which affect the likelihood of those units triggering a bonus during combat.

The repair process fixes not only the damage caused by the toxin, but also other low-level damage that might have accumulated before without triggering the repair mechanism.

He claimed when the people, who had climbed the canopy of the disputed structure, were unable to break it with heavy hammers and ' saabal ' ( long iron rod ), the armed forces personnel present there caused the damage to its walls by triggering an explosive. Once the walls collapsed, the entire canopy of the Babri mosque caved in, he said.

Literature in the 1970s delved into the topic, including The Terminal Man by Michael Crichton, where a man suffering from brain damage receives an experimental surgical brain implant designed to prevent seizures, which he abuses by triggering for pleasure.

" The Jordanian Government argued any damage to the Bank could undermine global counter-terrorism efforts because it would push customers in the region to an underground financial system where transactions cannot be tracked, triggering political instability.

A fuel explosion within the confines of the firebox may damage the pressurized boiler tubes and interior shell, potentially triggering structural failure, steam or water leakage, and / or a secondary boiler shell failure and steam explosion.
