He had no doubt the marine was the lead scout of a column, and while his shot had probably bred indecision, they would soon come hunting.

Its first apparition was a long, gloomy column of refugees riding in farm wagons, or pushing prams.

I was interested in James Webb Young's Madison Avenue column in which he raised the question: `` Do We Need a College of Propaganda ''??

The mixture was then extracted with alkali and with water following which the carbon tetrachloride was distilled on a Vigreux column, a 25% center cut being retained which was then degassed under vacuum in the presence of Af.

Direct proportionality of the rate to the incident intensity has also been assumed in obtaining the value in the last column for the fourth sample of series 2, where the light intensity was reduced by use of a screen.

After dialysis the sample was centrifuged and the supernatant placed on a Af cm column of EEAE-cellulose equilibrated with starting buffer.

The only treatment by which nonspecific staining could be satisfactorily removed was by passing the conjugate through a DEAE-cellulose column.

When 1 ml of conjugate was passed through a column ( Af ), the first and second milliliter fractions collected were the most specific and gave no nonspecific staining in some experiments, and very little in others.

In our work the best procedure for removing substances causing nonspecific staining in order to obtain specific conjugates was to pass the conjugates through a DEAE-cellulose column and in some cases to absorb the first and second milliliter fractions with sweet clover tissue powder.

If the bottom name in each column did not have a responsible executive identified, the next name above which identified such a responsible executive was substituted.

Substance Z, an active urinary peptide, was purified by extraction in organic solvents and repeated column chromatography ; ;

A Modest Proposal is the name of The University of Texas at Dallas ' Alternative Student Newspaper, the monthly opinion paper of the University ; it was also the name of a regular column in SWIFT Magazine of Harvard University, a satire publication that also takes its name from Jonathan Swift.

His body was placed in Hadrian's mausoleum, a column was dedicated to him on the Campus Martius, and the temple he had built in the Forum in 141 to his deified wife Faustina was rededicated to the deified Faustina and the deified Antoninus.

Primary user input was decimal, via standard IBM 80 column punched cards and output was decimal, via a front panel display.

In his instrument, temperatures were indicated by the height at which a column of mercury was sustained by a certain mass of air, the volume, or " spring ", of which varied with the heat to which it was exposed.

Or against her back, pressed on the column of vertebrae, which held her so magnificently straight and unyielding, until the segments of bone made tiny sharp cracking noises, like the snapped stem of a tulip.

Because the original designer had left the company another employee completely redesigned most of the system, ( adding a display snow remover circuit, true 80 / 64 column text mode support, ( with different size letters for TRS-80 and CP / M mode, so that in TRS-80 mode the full screen was also used, not just a 64x16 portion of the 80x25 screen ) with an improved font set ( adding " gray scale " version of the TRS-80 mozaik graphics and many special PETSCII like characters ), and a more flexible and reliable floppy disk controller and keyboard interface plus many other small improvements ), also an enclosure was developed for the main computer system, ( in the form of a 19-inch rack for the Eurocards ) and for two floppy disk drives and the power supply.

Most of its production is in the upper metre or so of the soil column, where the cosmogenic neutron flux is still sufficiently strong.

The design of most classical columns incorporates entasis ( the inclusion of a slight outward curve in the sides ) plus a reduction in diameter along the height of the column, so that the top is as little as 83 % of the bottom diameter.

The acanthus of the Corinthian column already has a scroll-like element, so the distinction is sometimes subtle.

The sector gears are double-high on one side so they can be lifted to disengage from the odd column wheels while they still remain in contact with the even column wheels.

At the Crossbarry Ambush in March 1921, 100 or so of Barry's men fought a sizeable engagement with a British column of 1, 200, escaping from the British encircling manoeuvre.

The following table reads, in gojūon order, as a, i, u, e, o ( down first column ), then ka, ki, ku, ke, ko ( down second column ), and so on.

Below one fills in one-quarter of the rows with T, then one-quarter with F, then one-quarter with T and the last quarter with F. The next column alternates between true and false for each eighth of the rows, then sixteenths, and so on, until the last propositional constant varies between T and F for each row.

His habit of giving out wares on credit led to the eventual bankrupting of the store, so Baum turned to editing a local newspaper, The Aberdeen Saturday Pioneer, where he wrote a column, Our Landlady.

They fought packed in a close rectangular formation, typically eight men deep, with a leader at the head of each column and a secondary leader in the middle, so that the back rows could move off to the sides if more frontage was needed.

The most common choices are mercury ( Hg ) and water ; water is nontoxic and readily available, while mercury's density allows for a shorter column ( and so a smaller manometer ) to measure a given pressure.

Fluid density and local gravity can vary from one reading to another depending on local factors, so the height of a fluid column does not define pressure precisely.

A non-vanishing p-minor ( p × p submatrix with non-vanishing determinant ) shows that the rows and columns of that submatrix are linearly independent, and thus those rows and columns of the full matrix are linearly independent ( in the full matrix ), so the row and column rank are at least as large as the determinantal rank ; however, the converse is less straightforward.

However, Wallace acknowledged that he got the term from an InfoWorld magazine column by that name in the 1970s, and that he considered the name to be generic, so its use became established over freeware and user-supported software.

The beam passes through pairs of scanning coils or pairs of deflector plates in the electron column, typically in the final lens, which deflect the beam in the x and y axes so that it scans in a raster fashion over a rectangular area of the sample surface.

A typewriter or electromechanical printer can print characters on paper, and execute operations such as move the carriage back to the left margin of the same line ( carriage return ), advance to the same column of the next line ( line feed ), and so on.

If is a vector-valued random variable, with values in, and thought of as a column vector, then the natural generalization of variance is, where and is the transpose of, and so is a row vector.

Starlight traveling through a kiloparsec column undergoes about a magnitude of extinction, so that the optical depth ~ 1.

The column may be long and slender, or may be so short in the vertical direction that the body becomes disk-like.

Rather than realigning his troops so that the rear guard would be in the front, Wallace chose to countermarch his column ; he argued that his artillery would have been greatly out of position to support the infantry when it would arrive on the field.

As compared to dot matrix printers that print a single column of dots at a time, these printers generally print an entire line of dots at a time and so are sometimes called line matrix printers.

* Vertebral column, commonly known as the backbone or spine, so named for its spinous processes
