The judge's partiality towards the defendant caused him to be replaced, with someone who was apparently more neutral. |
|
Faith should be a matter of arduous struggle and self-doubt, but the partygoer wants the experience to be easy, immediate and elevating. |
|
Would you rather party hardy and die young, or not party at all and live to be an old man? |
|
Early in the 20th century, the term Coriolis force began to be used in connection with meteorology. |
|
In moths, their antennae are known to be responsible for the sensing of Coriolis forces in the similar manner as with the halteres in flies. |
|
Pytheas travelled to the British Isles about 325 BC and seems to be the first to have related spring tides to the phase of the moon. |
|
If the basis set of sinusoidal functions suit the behaviour being modelled, relatively few harmonic terms need to be added. |
|
This is thought to be the first study showing a link between NAO and terrestrial insects in North America. |
|
However, concern was beginning to be expressed about the impact of chloroalkanes and bromoalkanes on the ozone layer. |
|
During a violent storm on his first return voyage, Columbus, then 41, suffered an attack of what was believed at the time to be gout. |
|
The crisis passed as she'd prayed it would, but it remained to be seen just how much damage had been done. |
|
One stripping mechanism is for gas to be caught in bubbles of magnetic field, which are ripped off by solar winds. |
|
The average magnetic field in the Earth's outer core was calculated to be 25 gauss, 50 times stronger than the field at the surface. |
|
Rain drops associated with melting hail tend to be larger than other rain drops. |
|
Weighing gauges with antifreeze should do fine with snow, but again, the funnel needs to be removed before the event begins. |
|
The rainfall will be extreme and flooding to be worse than a 1 in 10 year event. |
|
While six factors appear to be generally necessary, tropical cyclones may occasionally form without meeting all of the following conditions. |
|
Tropical cyclones stir up water, leaving a cool wake behind them, which causes the region to be less favorable for subsequent tropical cyclones. |
|
A tropical cyclone does not need to be particularly strong to cause memorable damage, primarily if the deaths are from rainfall or mudslides. |
|
Mass extinctions seem to be a mainly Phanerozoic phenomenon, with extinction rates low before large complex organisms arose. |
