In the early 20th century, before enzymology was well understood, colloids were thought to be the key to the operation of enzymes ; i. e., the addition of small quantities of an enzyme to a quantity of water would, in some fashion yet to be specified, subtly alter the properties of the water so that it would break down the enzyme's specific substrate, such as a solution of ATPase breaking down ATP.

, two years after its implementation began, the security situation of inside Colombia has shown some measure of an improvement and the economy, while still fragile, has also shown some positive signs according to observers, but relatively little has yet to have been accomplished in structurally solving most of the country's other grave problems, possibly in part due to legislative and political conflicts between the administration and the Colombian Congress ( including those over the controversial project to eventually re-elect Uribe ), and a relative lack of freely allocated funds and credits.

These categories surely have some objects that are " special " in a certain way, such as the empty set or the product of two topologies, yet in the definition of a category, objects are considered to be atomic, i. e., we do not know whether an object A is a set, a topology, or any other abstract concept – hence, the challenge is to define special objects without referring to the internal structure of those objects.

" 20: 9 It may be that the images of fire raining down are an ancient vision of modern weapons, others would say a supernatural intervention by God, yet others that they refer to events in history, and some would say they are symbolic of larger ideas and should not be interpreted literally.

Finally, just as no different issues are posed for thoughtful analysis by the foreshortening of time that may yet pass before the end of human life on this earth, but only stimulation and alarm to the imagination, the same thing must be said in connection with the question of what we may perhaps already be doing, by human action, to accelerate this end.

Because acids were thought at the time to necessarily contain oxygen, a number of chemists, including Claude Berthollet, suggested that Scheele's dephlogisticated muriatic acid air must be a combination of oxygen and the yet undiscovered element, and Scheele named the supposed new element within this oxide as muriaticum.

In the latter, only taxa associated with a rank can be named, yet there are not enough ranks to name a long series of nested clades ; ranks determine the form of names, so names must in many cases change when a name is inserted into such a series ; and taxon names cannot be defined in a way that guarantees them to refer to clades.

To be considered a ' hack ' was an honour among like-minded peers as " to qualify as a hack, the feat must be imbued with innovation, style and technical virtuosity " ( Levy, 1984 p. 10 ) The MIT's Tech Model Railroad Club Dictionary defined hack in 1959 ( not yet in a computer context ) as " 1 ) an article or project without constructive end ; 2 ) a project undertaken on bad self-advice ; 3 ) an entropy booster ; 4 ) to produce, or attempt to produce, a hack ( 3 ).
