This is puzzling to an outsider conscious of the classic tradition of liberalism, because it is clear that these Democrats who are left-of-center are at opposite poles from the liberal Jefferson, who held that the best government was the least government.

In fact it has caused us to give serious thought to moving our residence south, because it is not easy for the most objective Southerner to sit calmly by when his host is telling a roomful of people that the only way to deal with Southerners who oppose integration is to send in troops and shoot the bastards down.

Had the situation been reversed, had, for instance, England been the enemy in 1898 because of issues of concern chiefly to New England, there is little doubt that large numbers of Southerners would have happily put on their old Confederate uniforms to fight as allies of Britain.

But it is more than irony: one of the main reasons why nationalism is no longer a tenable concept is because it has spread throughout the planet.

The `` approximate '' is important, because even after the order of the work has been established by the chance method, the result is not inviolable.

Often it is recognized that all the details of the pattern may not be essential to the outcome but, because the pattern was empirically determined and not developed through theoretical understanding, one is never quite certain which behavior elements are effective, and the whole pattern becomes ritualized.

Yet often fear persists because, even with the most rigid ritual, one is never quite free from the uneasy feeling that one might make some mistake or that in every previous execution one had been unaware of the really decisive act.

Or is it relevant because it teaches us something useful to know about ourselves??

I knew that a conversation with the author would not settle such questions, because a man is not the same as his writing: in the last analysis, the questions had to be settled by the work itself.

I suggested that one must let it in because it is the truth, but Beckett did not take to the word truth.

That is why the form itself becomes a preoccupation, because it exists as a problem separate from the material it accommodates.

It is because there is not only darkness but also light that our situation becomes inexplicable.

If they avoid the use of the pungent, outlawed four-letter word it is because it is taboo ; ;

Jazz is good not only because it promotes wholeness but because of its decided sexual effect.

It is worth dwelling in some detail on the crisis of this story, because it brings together a number of characteristic elements and makes of them a curious, riddling compound obscurely but centrally significant for Mann's work.

Since the hero, a sterling and upright fellow, is a rich Brown senior, while two Yalies are cast as virtual rapists, I suppose I should disqualify myself from sitting in judgment on `` Where The Boys Are '', but I shall do nothing of the sort.

Also, a therapist might choose to have the subject partake in what is called " exposure therapy " where the person is exposed to virtual spiders and then eventually live spiders little by little until they have overcome the phobia.

Although the hardware is limited to four separate sound channels, software such as OctaMED uses software mixing to allow eight or more virtual channels, and it was possible for software to mix two hardware channels to achieve a single 14-bit resolution channel by playing with the volumes of the channels in such a way that one of the source channels contributes the most significant bits and the other the least.

The VPI is useful for reducing the switching table of some virtual circuits which have common paths.

If the traffic on a virtual circuit is exceeding its traffic contract, as determined by the GCRA, the network can either drop the cells or mark the Cell Loss Priority ( CLP ) bit ( to identify a cell as potentially redundant ).

Static circuits ( permanent virtual circuits or PVCs ) or paths ( permanent virtual paths or PVPs ) require that the circuit is composed of a series of segments, one for each pair of interfaces through which it passes.

In ATM this is called a virtual circuit ( VC ).

It can be a permanent virtual circuit ( PVC ), which is created administratively on the end points, or a switched virtual circuit ( SVC ), which is created as needed by the communicating parties.

A virtual printer is a piece of computer software whose user interface and API resembles that of a printer driver, but which is not connected with a physical computer printer.

One hypothesis is that dark energy is the energy of virtual particles ( which mathematically must exist in a vacuum due to the uncertainty principle ).

* A virtual community is a group of people primarily or initially communicating or interacting with each other by means of information technologies, typically over the Internet, rather than in person.

Another option is to have virtual GKOS keys positioned towards the sides of a touch sensitive screen.

If a scene is to look relatively realistic and predictable under virtual lighting, the rendering software should solve the rendering equation.

Primary memory stored on secondary memory is called " virtual memory ".

Only the kernel deals with files, but it handles all user-space interaction with ( virtual ) files in a manner that is transparent to the user-space programs.

In the 21st century it is possible to find a map of virtually anything from the inner workings of the human body to the virtual worlds of cyberspace.

* dynamic allocation: A network administrator assigns a range of IP addresses to DHCP, and each client computer on the LAN is configured to request an IP address from the DHCP server during network initialization.

The IEEE 802 family of standards is maintained by the IEEE 802 LAN / MAN Standards Committee ( LMSC ).

A local area network ( LAN ) is a computer network that interconnects computers in a limited area such as a home, school, computer laboratory, or office building using network media.

But the latency over a dial-up Internet connection is much larger than on a LAN, and this caused a noticeable delay between when a player tried to act and when that action was visible on the screen.

A multicast protocol, usually Internet Group Management Protocol, is used to manage delivery of multicast streams to the groups of recipients on a LAN.

In case the computer being woken is communicating via Wi-Fi, a supplementary standard called Wake on Wireless LAN ( WoWLAN ) must be employed.

The term " Wake on LAN " is a trademark of IBM Corporation.

Magic packets are sent via the data link or OSI-2 layer, which can be used or abused by anyone on the same LAN, unless the L2 LAN equipment is capable of ( and configured for ) filtering such traffic to match site-wide security requirements.

While WoL hardware / firmware is arguably performing the role of a " server ", web based interfaces which act as a gateway through which users can issue WoL packets without downloading a local client often become known as " The Wake On LAN Server " to users.

As a matter of fact, it is becoming very difficult to find 10BASE2-compatible network cards as distinct pieces of equipment, and integrated LAN controllers on motherboards don't have the connector, although the underlying logic may still be present.

The model is fed with measurements of transaction resource demands ( CPU, disk I / O, LAN, WAN ), weighted by the transaction-mix ( business transactions per hour ).

While there are specialized applications, such as storage area networks, where the input and output interfaces are the same bandwidth, this is not always the case in general LAN applications.

* In IEEE 802. 1X, an authenticator is an entity at one end of a point-to-point LAN segment that facilitates authentication of the entity attached to the other end of that link.

Although CSMA / CA has been used in a variety of wired communication systems, it is particularly beneficial in a wireless LAN due to a common problem of multiple stations being able to see the Access Point, but not each other.

This improves reliability which is important in Metropolitan Area Networks ( MAN ), where repairs may take longer than in a LAN and wifi because the damage may be inaccessible.

The consequence of its application is that even a simple LAN connector jack can be considered to be a telecommunications facility in Canada, for tax purposes.

The most usual case is when the attacker is spoofing an address on the same LAN or WAN.

The ouptut modal power distribution of a mode scrambler is similar to the surface-emitters used in those first LAN transmitters, but this was fortuitous coincidence.

The network operating system is designed to allow shared file and printer access among multiple computers in a network, typically a local area network ( LAN ), a private network or to other networks.

A good example is a local area network ( LAN ): Any given node in the LAN has one or more physical links to other devices in the network ; graphically mapping these links results in a geometric shape that can be used to describe the physical topology of the network.
