Some scholars believe that the apologetic view of Luke ’ s work is overemphasized and that it should not be regarded as a “ major aim of the Lucan writings .” While Munck believes that purpose of Luke ’ s work is not that clear-cut and sympathizes with other claims, he believes that Luke ’ s work can function as an apology only in the sense that it “ presents a defense of Christianity and Paul ” and may serve to “ clarify the position of Christianity within Jewry and within the Roman Empire .” Pervo disagrees that Luke ’ s work is an apology and even that it could possibly be addressed to Rome because he believes that “ Luke and Acts speak to insiders, believers in Jesus .” Freedman believes that Luke is writing an apology but that his goal is “ not to defend the Christian movement as such but to defend God ’ s ways in history .”

While the complexity, size, construction, and general form of CPUs have changed enormously since 1950, it is notable that the basic design and function has not changed much at all.

The EPR paper ends by saying: While we have thus shown that the wave function does not provide a complete description of the physical reality, we left open the question of whether or not such a description exists.

While most compilers for imperative programming languages detect pure functions, and perform common-subexpression elimination for pure function calls, they cannot always do this for pre-compiled libraries, which generally do not expose this information, thus preventing optimizations that involve those external functions.

While almost none of this math goes beyond the basic functions of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division ( certain obscure and completely optional situations may call for a logarithmic function ), this can seem daunting to newcomers.

While Lippman's journalistic philosophy might be more acceptable to government leaders, Dewey's approach is a better description of how many journalists see their role in society, and, in turn, how much of society expects journalists to function.

While the knot itself does not fail, it ceases to perform the desired function.

While at least one researcher, Michael Persinger, claims otherwise, Jeffrey Gray states in his book Consciousness: Creeping up on the Hard Problem, that tests looking for the influence of electromagnetic fields on brain function have been universally negative in their result.

While it is possible to define some arbitrary, ad hoc cost function, frequently a particular cost will be used, either because it has desirable properties ( such as convexity ) or because it arises naturally from a particular formulation of the problem ( e. g., in a probabilistic formulation the posterior probability of the model can be used as an inverse cost ).

While phonetics concerns the physical production, acoustic transmission and perception of the sounds of speech, phonology describes the way sounds function within a given language or across languages to encode meaning.

While any LTI system can be described by some transfer function or another,

While being empowered to legislate on matters, the Universal House of Justice has, since its inception, limited its exercise of this function.

While being empowered to legislate on matters, the Universal House of Justice has, since its inception in 1963, been limited in its exercise of this function.

While a student of Andrey Kolmogorov at Moscow State University and still a teenager, Arnold showed in 1957 that any continuous function of several variables can be constructed with a finite number of two-variable functions, thereby partially solving Hilbert's thirteenth problem.

While there had been previous game consoles that used cartridges, either the cartridges had no information and served the same function as flipping switches ( the Odyssey ) or the console itself was empty and the cartridge contained all of the game components.

While the two fields are closely related, ' urban design ' differs from ' urban planning ' in its focus on the proactive design of urban areas, whereas the latter tends, in practice, to focus on the management of private development through established regulatory planning methods and programs, and other statutory development controls.

While glyphosate has been approved by regulatory bodies worldwide and is widely used, concerns about is effects on humans and the environment persist.

While violence in films released to cinemas had received attention from an official body, the British Board of Film Censorship, for many years, the lack of a regulatory system for video sales combined with the claim that any film could fall into children's hands led to public debate.

While accepting that under Glass-Steagall financial firms could still have “ made, sold, and securitized risky mortgages, all the while fueling a massive housing bubble and building a highly leveraged, Ponzi-like pyramid of derivatives on top ,” the New Rules Project concludes that commentators who deny the GLBA played a role in the financial crisis “ fail to recognize the significance of 1999 as the pivotal policy-making moment leading up to the crash .” The Project argues 1999 was Congress ’ s opportunity to reject 25 years of “ deregulation ” and “ confront the changing financial system by reaffirming the importance of effective structural safeguards, such as the Glass-Steagall Act's firewall and market share caps to limit the size of banks ; bringing shadow banks into the regulatory framework ; and developing new rules to control the dangers inherent in derivatives and other engineered financial products .”

While each type of depository institution has a “ primary regulator ”, the nation ’ s “ dual banking ” system allows concurrent jurisdiction among the different regulatory agencies.

While this may have been seen as an advantage by the Federal Communications Commission and other regulatory agencies, end users did not share this view.

While this approach has some advantages, it does not address the problem of complexity, and may not reduce overall regulatory costs as much as is thought.

While the moratorium on genetic modification has now expired, the Greens remain heavily involved in attempts to prevent any GM releases under the new regulatory framework, and genetic engineering remains a major topic for the party.

While her 1997 testimony opposed the Senate bill ’ s provision to codify in law the existing CFTC regulatory exemptions for OTC derivatives, she also stated the CFTC was “ watching ” the OTC derivatives market with the PWG and had no plans to modify the existing CFTC exemptions for that market.

While the regulatory aspect of critical habitat does not apply directly to private and other non-federal landowners, large-scale development, logging and mining projects on private and state land typically require a federal permit and thus become subject to critical habitat regulations.

While information in cDNA libraries is a powerful and useful tool since gene products are easily identified, the libraries lack information about enhancers, introns, and other regulatory elements found in a genomic DNA library.

While CKVU began airing CHUM programming immediately following the switch, the station remained in trust pending regulatory approval of the sale.

While RCRA handles many regulatory functions of hazardous and non-hazardous waste, arguably its most notable provisions regard the Subtitle C program which tracks the progress of hazardous wastes from their point of generation, their transport, and their treatment and / or disposal.

While emission performance standards have been used to dictate limits for conventional pollutants such as oxides of nitrogen and oxides of sulfur ( NOx and SOx ), this regulatory technique may be used to regulate greenhouse gasses, particularly carbon dioxide ( CO < sub > 2 </ sub >).

While many regulatory bodies have adopted this addition on their own ( as noted above ), the FAA has not required it on flights to, from, or within the United States.

While microtubule attachment is independently required for SAC activation, it is unclear whether tension is an independent regulator of SAC, although it is clear that differing regulatory behaviors arise with tension.

While these concepts were advocated to various regulatory bodies in the U. S. and Europe during the 1990s, the idea has met with limited enthusiasm and much opposition.

While the effective date for the transaction was to be 27 November 2005, completion of the sale was expected in early 2006 and was subject to normal regulatory approvals.
