Others are confined to vast reservations, and not only does the Australian government justifiably not wish them to be viewed as exhibits in a zoo, but on their reservations they are extremely fugitive, shunning camps, coming together only for corroborees at which their strange culture comes to its highest pitch -- which is very low indeed.

What is more, the legends have become so sacrosanct that the very habit of self-examination or self-criticism smells of low treason, and men who practice it are defeatists and unpatriotic scoundrels.

The Peace Corps can either begin in very low gear, with only preparatory work undertaken between now and when Congress finally appropriates special funds for it -- or it can be launched now and in earnest by executive action, with sufficient funds and made available from existing Mutual Security appropriations to permit a number of substantial projects to start this summer.

The results of present observations of the thermal radio emission of the moon are consistent with the very low thermal conductivity of the surface layer which was derived from the variation in the infrared emission during eclipses ( e.g., Garstung, 1958 ).

No attempts to measure the radio emission of the remaining planets have been reported, and, because of their distances, small diameters, or low temperatures, the thermal radiation at radio wave lengths reaching the earth from these sources is expected to be of very low intensity.

One sample, which had been exposed to the atmosphere after evacuation at 375-degrees-C, showed the presence of adsorbed water ( about 0.3 wt ) ) as evidenced by a weak resonance line which was very narrow at room temperature and which disappeared, due to broadening, at low temperature.

Stains, which include the wide variety of nonparticulate materials which give color even when present in very low concentration on the soiled object.

Starting from other value premises than Fromm's, some analysts might conclude that the percentages really tell us very little at all, while others might even conclude that the figures are remarkably low.

Needless to say, the organic load was very low on a volumetric basis, but was 270 lb BOD/day/acre on a surface loading basis.

This low BOD was due to removal of the excess suspended solids by sedimentation since the only dilution was surface runoff which was very low during this study.

The inhibition of the enzyme by very low concentrations of lanthanum ion is probably the strongest known biological effect of rare earth salts.

Why should the `` practical adhesion '' of a coating as assessed by a knife method change, initially increasing rather rapidly and then decreasing stepwise to very low values as the knife is forced through a coating of increasing thickness??

`` The planet is very low in radiation from mineral deposits, and the atmosphere seems to shield out most of the solar output.

He signed the Homestead Act in 1862, making millions of acres of government-held land in the West available for purchase at very low cost.

Neoteny occurs when the animal's growth rate is very low.

Armenian banking assets are very low and make up only 25 percent of the Gross Domestic Product ( GDP ).

Because of their relatively large mass, + 2 electric charge and relatively low velocity, alpha particles are very likely to interact with other atoms and lose their energy, so their forward motion is effectively stopped within a few centimeters of air.

The Andean Condor, the largest bird of its kind in the Western Hemisphere, occurs throughout much of the Andes but generally in very low densities.

At very low temperatures in the vicinity of absolute zero, matter exhibits many unusual properties, including superconductivity, superfluidity, and Bose – Einstein condensation.

One technique used to reach very low temperatures ( thousandths and even millionths of a degree above absolute zero ) is adiabatic demagnetisation, where the change in magnetic field on a magnetic material is used to provide adiabatic cooling.

Although Agrippina was very influential, she kept a very low profile and stayed away from the imperial palace and the court of the emperor.

High international oil prices and rising oil production have led to a very strong economic growth in recent years, but corruption and public-sector mismanagement remain, particularly in the oil sector, which accounts for over 50 percent of GDP, over 90 percent of export revenue, and over 80 percent of government revenue.

Another difference between oil and acrylic paints is the versatility offered by acrylic paints-acrylic is very useful in mixed media, allowing use of pastel ( oil & chalk ), charcoal, pen, etc.

Actually very small fruit, these " seeds " yield a valuable volatile oil used in the perfume and pharmaceutical industries.

The climate is generally dry and mild, but with the exception of Naxos the soil is not very fertile: agricultural produce includes wine, fruit, wheat, olive oil, and tobacco.

In Italy, carpaccio is a dish of very thinly sliced raw beef, drizzled with a vinaigrette made with olive oil.

Crude oil ( petroleum ) fluoresces in a range of colors, from dull-brown for heavy oils and tars through to bright-yellowish and bluish-white for very light oils and condensates.

This phenomenon is used in oil exploration drilling to identify very small amounts of oil in drill cuttings and core samples.

When wet, the oil tends to float to the surface of the roads making them very slippery and dangerous.

New York's crude oil is very high in parafin, and is refined in many valuable end products.

Haiti uses very little energy, the equivalent of approximately 250 kilograms of oil per head per year.

( Beeswax for candles and olive oil for oil lamps are preferred because they burn very cleanly, although other materials are sometimes used.

In the Salon of that year, he exhibited Shepherdess Sitting at the Edge of the Forest, a very small oil which marked a turning away from previous idealized pastoral subjects, in favor of a more realistic and personal approach.

The dark areas of the painting were kept very thin and transparent with generous amounts of the oil medium.

Lemon balm essential oil is very popular in aromatherapy.

Turbochargers get red hot during operation and the oil that is cooling them only survives as its residence time in the system is very short i. e. high flow rate.

The main causes are special requirements for service and repair ( mostly available only in Moscow & Togliatti ) and very high fuel & lubricating oil consumption.

Lower Tertiary rock formations encountered in the Gulf of Mexico oil industry tend to be comparatively high temperature and high pressure reservoirs, often with high sand content ( 70 %+) or under very thick salt sediment layers.

Water has a very low solubility ( is insoluble ) in oil, and oil has a low solubility in water.

Like an oil change or a fluid dump, the blood rush revitalizes the very areas that demand fresh nutrients.
