They then point out that with our present lack of knowledge of all the factors concerned in the rise and fall of epidemics, it is unlikely that a planned episode could be initiated.

Now the only way in which all curves of the image family of Af can pass through a fixed point is to have a generator of Af which is not a secant but a tangent of **zg, for then any point on such a generator will be transformed into the point of tangency.

But if this is the case, then an arbitrary pencil of lines having a point, P, of **zg as vertex is transformed into a ruled surface of order Af having Af generators concurrent at P.

If one also removes the second postulate (" a line can be extended indefinitely ") then elliptic geometry arises, where there is no parallel through a point outside a line, and in which the interior angles of a triangle add up to more than 180 degrees.

Heavy disputes between Hekmatyar and Massoud in 1975 reached to such a point that Hekmatyar with the help of two Pakistani agents tried to assassinate Massoud, then 22 years old.

If the object point O is infinitely distant, u1 and u2 are to be replaced by h1 and h2, the perpendicular heights of incidence ; the sine condition then becomes sin u ' 1 / h1 = sin u ' 2 / h2.

6 ) at a finite distance from the axis ( or with an infinitely distant object, a point which subtends a finite angle at the system ) is, in general, even then not sharply reproduced, if the pencil of rays issuing from it and traversing the system is made infinitely narrow by reducing the aperture stop ; such a pencil consists of the rays which can pass from the object point through the now infinitely small entrance pupil.

If the net force on some body is directed always toward some fixed point, the center, then there is no torque on the body with respect to the center, and so the angular momentum of the body about the center is constant.

The central dogma of molecular biology where genetic material is transcribed into RNA and then translated into protein, despite being an oversimplified picture of molecular biology, still provides a good starting point for understanding the field.

The disadvantage of flat point bullets is the reduction in aerodynamic performance ; the flat point induces much drag, leading to significantly reduced velocities at long range.

Thus 5-BrU induces a point mutation via base substitution.

If M admits local holomorphic coordinates for J around every point then these patch together to form a holomorphic atlas for M giving it a complex structure, which moreover induces J. J is then said to be ' integrable '.

The intense heat induces convection which causes the air mass to rise to a point of stability, usually in the presence of moisture.

As soon as an electric field is applied to the surface of an ideal conductor, it induces a current that causes displacement of charge inside the conductor that cancels the applied field inside, at which point the current stops.

This identification, called a canonical projection, is a mapping that sends each trajectory in onto a point in and induces a metric on via pullback.

At this point the very large vibronic coupling induces a non-radiative transition ( surface-hopping ) which leads the molecule back to its electronic ground state.

The deeds of countless western bandits and outlaws have been glorified almost to the point of hero-worship, but because Billy Tilghman remained strictly on the side of the law throughout his action-packed career, his achievements and the appalling risks he took while taming the West have remained almost unsung.

Writing to Speed on August 24, 1855, Lincoln made the latter point clear.

In still others which are barely on the threshold of the transition into modernity, the decade can bring significant progress in launching the slow process of developing their human resources and their basic services to the point where an expanded range of developmental activities is possible.

conduct engineering research and technical development work to determine, by laboratory and pilot plant testing, the results of the research and studies aforesaid in order to develop processes and plant designs to the point where they can be demonstrated on a large and practical scale ; ;

May I add a caution on this particular point??

The extent of such interference -- which may be so slight as to be undetectable at any point where either of the stations renders a usable signal, or may be so great as to virtually destroy the service areas of both stations -- depends on many factors, among the principal ones being the distance between the stations, their respective radiated power, and, of particular significance here, the time of day.

By this standard, it is determined that where two stations operating on the same frequency are involved, objectionable interference from station A exists at any point within the service area of station B where station A's signal is of an intensity one-twentieth or more of the strength of station B's signal at that point.

The president who appoints strong men who have an all-college or university point of view and a talent and respect for administration can count on useful assistance.
