In particular, Egan found himself " gobsmacked by the level of scientific illiteracy " in the magazine's coverage of Roger Shawyer's " electromagnetic drive ", where New Scientist allowed the publication of " meaningless double-talk " designed to bypass a fatal objection to Shawyer's proposed space drive, namely that it violates the law of conservation of momentum.

In 1917, Franz Kafka wrote in The Silence of the Sirens, " Now the Sirens have a still more fatal weapon than their song, namely their silence.

But, as is Our Apostolic Duty, we wish your episcopal solicitude and vigilance to be aroused, so that you will strive as much as you can to drive form the mind of men that impious and equally fatal opinion, namely, that the way of eternal salvation can be found in any religion whatsoever.

" The botched peace settlements after 1918 multiplied what we, at the end of the twentieth century, know to be the fatal virus of democracy, namely the division of the body of citizens exclusively along ethnic-national or religious lines.

There were many arrests and injuries, and at least one confirmed fatal shooting, namely that of Ezzat Ebrahim-Nejad.

Young and Yung pointed out the fatal weakness in malware such as the AIDS Trojan, namely, the reliance on symmetric cryptography.

Fortunately for India's struggle for freedom, the fatal inertia that had practically put an end, after calling off the Non-co-operative movement, to all its outwards activities, was removed by an action of the British government, namely the appointment of Simon Commission in 1928.

Furthermore, the expression does become a tautology if one uses the most widely accepted definition of " fitness " in modern biology, namely reproductive success itself ( rather than any set of characters conducive to this reproductive success ).

If all such predicates are included, then the second principle as formulated above can be trivially and uncontroversially shown to be a logical tautology: if x is non-identical to y, then there will always be a putative " property " which distinguishes them, namely " being identical to x ".

The fact that there can not be any limit points of the set except in closed intervals follows from the argument used in Lemma 1, namely, that near any tangent point in the C-plane the curves C and Af are analytic, and therefore the difference between them must be a monotone function in some neighborhood on either side of the tangent point.

For any pencil in a plane containing a Af-fold secant of **zg has an image regulus which meets the plane of the pencil in Af lines, namely the images of the lines of the pencil which pass through the intersection of **zg and the multiple secant, plus an additional component to account for the intersections of the images of the general lines of the pencil.

But in any event, full credit should be given to the Cost Section for its express and overt recognition of a vital distinction too often ignored in utility-cost analyses: namely, that between a cost allocation designed to reflect the actual behavior of costs in response to changes in rates of output of different classes of utility service ; ;

This is not to be confused with what the Arabs call the " Hindi numerals ", namely the Eastern Arabic numerals (---------) used in the Middle East, or any of the numerals currently used in Indian languages ( e. g. Devanagari: ).

In analytic geometry, any equation involving the coordinates specifies a subset of the plane, namely the solution set for the equation.

This came as no surprise, since Abdallah had already demonstrated his affection for his grandson in many ways, namely by allowing him to live in his own tower ( something he did not allow for any of his sons ), and allowing him to sit on the throne on some festive occasions.

We absolutely forbid priests, deacons, and subdeacons to associate with concubines and women, or to live with women other than such as the Nicene Council ( canon 3 ) for reasons of necessity permitted, namely, the mother, sister, or aunt, or any such person concerning whom no suspicion could arise.

Its main purpose was to prove that there were problems ( namely the halting problem ) that could not be solved by any sequential process.

In general, no even number greater than 2 is prime: any such number has at least three distinct divisors, namely 1, 2, and.

Often a second, additional meaning is intended by using the word prime, namely that any object can be, essentially uniquely, decomposed into its prime components.

He also had a role in the Hungarian invasion of the Kingdom of Naples, namely a papal fief ; the contest between Louis I of Hungary and Joan I of Naples, accused to have ordered the assassination of the former's brother, was ended in 1352 by a trial held in Avignon, by which she was acquitted from any charge.

* In any ring R, a maximal ideal is an ideal M that is maximal in the set of all proper ideals of R, i. e. M is contained in exactly 2 ideals of R, namely M itself and the entire ring R. Every maximal ideal is in fact prime.

The Swiss government thought that the aim of an invasion of Switzerland would be to control the economically important transport routes through the Swiss Alps, namely the Gotthard, the Simplon and Great St. Bernard passes, because Switzerland does not possess any significant natural resources.

Further, there is a generalization of the Stone – Weierstrass theorem to noncompact Tychonoff spaces, namely, any continuous function on a Tychonoff space is approximated uniformly on compact sets by algebras of the type appearing in the Stone – Weierstrass theorem and described below.

A consequence of the Jacobson density theorem is Wedderburn's theorem ; namely that any right artinian simple ring is isomorphic to a full matrix ring of n by n matrices over a division ring for some n. This can also be established as a corollary of the Artin – Wedderburn theorem.

It has one unique property – namely quark flavour changing – that does not occur in any other interaction.

With the conception of hybridized atomic orbitals by John C. Slater and Linus Pauling, which rationalized observed molecular geometries, the method was based on the premise that the bonds in any molecule could be described in a manner similar to the bond in H < sub > 2 </ sub >, namely, as overlapping atomic orbitals centered on the atoms involved.

More generally, if J is any category with an initial object i, then any diagram of type J has a limit, namely any object isomorphic to F ( i ).

In his 1950 autobiography, however, he simply declared that his work " scarcely permits of any other interpretation than that which Einstein had originally suggested, namely that of the semi-corpuscular or photon theory of light itself ".

By May 1896, after other experiments involving non-phosphorescent uranium salts, he arrived at the correct explanation, namely that the penetrating radiation came from the uranium itself, without any need of excitation by an external energy source.

generator either occurs always with positive or always with negative sign .</ ref > closed braid ( namely, the closure of the 3-string braid σ < sub > 1 </ sub > σ < sub > 2 </ sub >< sup >- 1 </ sup > σ < sub > 1 </ sub > σ < sub > 2 </ sub >< sup >- 1 </ sup >), and a theorem of John Stallings shows that any closed homogeneous braid is fibered.

and Nagaoka himself recognized a fundamental defect in the theory even at its conception, namely that a classical charged object cannot sustain orbital motion because it is accelerating and therefore loses energy due to electromagnetic radiation.

According to the special theory of relativity, the aberration looks as a transform of the celestial sphere due to different frames of reference and is virtually a special case of velocity addition, namely one of the light beam and frames ' relative velocity v. The formula from relativistic aberration can be simplified to

Today the harmonized ISO / IEC 80000-13: 2008 – Quantities and units — Part 13: Information science and technology standard cancels and replaces subclauses 3. 8 and 3. 9 of IEC 60027-2: 2005, namely those related to Information theory and Prefixes for binary multiples.

There are two major divisions in control theory, namely, classical and modern, which have direct implications over the control engineering applications.

In mathematics, more specifically in abstract algebra and ring theory, a Euclidean domain ( also called a Euclidean ring ) is a ring that can be endowed with a certain structure – namely a Euclidean function, to be described in detail below – which allows a suitable generalization of the Euclidean division of the integers.

The derivation outlined in the previous section contains all the information needed to define general relativity, describe its key properties, and address a question of crucial importance in physics, namely how the theory can be used for model-building.

The primary method of historicism was empirical, namely that there were so many requisite inputs into a society or event, that only by focusing on the data available could a theory of the source be determined.

They have criticized neoclassical international trade theory, namely the Heckscher-Ohlin model on the basis that the notion of capital as primary factor has no method of measuring it before the determination of profit rate ( thus trapped in a logical vicious circle ).

Einstein's theory of special relativity, like Newtonian mechanics, assumes the equivalence of all inertial reference frames, but makes an additional assumption, foreign to Newtonian mechanics, namely, that in free space light always is propagated with the speed of light c < sub > 0 </ sub >, a defined value independent of its direction of propagation and its frequency, and also independent of the state of motion of the emitting body.

" Darwin's theory of evolution challenges the teleological argument by postulating an alternative explanation to that of an intelligent designer — namely, evolution by natural selection.

Lie's idée fixe was to develop a theory of symmetries of differential equations that would accomplish for them what Évariste Galois had done for algebraic equations: namely, to classify them in terms of group theory.

According the Heitler-London theory, so-called two-body molecular-orbitals are formed, namely the resulting orbital is:

When k points are blown-up, the del Pezzo surface describes M-theory on a k-torus, and the exceptional del Pezzo surface, namely P < sup > 1 </ sup >( C ) × P < sup > 1 </ sup >( C ), is connected with type IIB string theory in 10 dimensions.

In particular, quantization, namely the construction of a quantum theory whose classical limit is a given and known classical theory, becomes an important area of quantum physics in itself.

However, Principia Mathematica required, in addition to the basic axioms of type theory, three further axioms that seemed to not be true as mere matters of logic, namely the axiom of infinity, the axiom of choice, and the axiom of reducibility.

He identified a discrepancy between early and later Freudian theory: namely that prior to World War I, Freud described human drives as a tension between desire and repression, but after the war's conclusion, he framed human drives as a struggle between biologically-universal Life and Death ( Eros and Thanatos ) instincts.

Freud explains that " the associated theory of magic merely explains the paths along which magic proceeds ; it does not explain its true essence, namely the misunderstanding which leads it to replace the laws of nature by psychological ones ".

Perhaps not objects as we had thought of them, but the theory is trying to give an account of what objects are ; namely, they are bundles of properties.

Since the development of more complex conceptions of gender and subjectivity and third-wave feminism, feminist literary criticism has taken a variety of new routes, namely in the tradition of the Frankfurt School's critical theory.

In Part I of Reasons and Persons Parfit discusses " self-defeating theories ", namely the self-interest theory of rationality ( S ) and two ethical frameworks: common sense morality ( CSM ) and consequentialism ( C ).
