“…These waste products often present serious management problems due to their more or less significant amounts and possible environmental threats. …”

“…We have also learned that a strategy based on payoff sampling may provide a more parsimonious and less parameter dependent way of modelling behavior in common pool resource extraction games. …”

“…Present in the fragile areas of agrarian abandonment, Sad will be no less concerned about the future of large-scale farming areas plagued by doubts about the virtues of intensification. …”

“…"The use of simulation has become an integral activity in many branches of engineering, particularly in aerospace, where flight simulation is recognised as an essential part of training and checking for airline and military pilots. Less well known is the development of engineering flight simulators, mostly by aerospace companies, who have invested in simulation to support the design, development and testing of aircraft and systems, prior to manufacturing, reducing the development costs and increasing the design options. …”

“…"This cutting-edge book facilitates debate amongst scholars in law, humanities and social sciences, where comparative methodology is far less well anchored in most areas compared to other research methods. …”

“…Healthy communities are more pedestrian-friendly and less automobile-centric. Mixed use zoning keeps a flow of people through parks, streets, neighborhoods, and districts, which is good for business, safety, and tourism. …”

“…Functional advanced biopolymers have received far less attention than renewable biomass (cellulose, rubber, et cetera) used for energy production. …”

“…It may take a few days or a week to recover from a less complex operation, but it can take a few months to recover from major surgery. …”

“…This volume contains studies of the implications of changing climates in Asia and Africa, two regions containing the majority of Earth's population and many less developed countries. People of this region often lack the cushion of advanced technologies or economic safety nets that the West has come to expect. …”

“…The gaze of those observing it is more or less mobile; does the night maintain its function as a frame? …”

“…But in this increasingly fast-paced, busy, and noisy world, how do you capture people's attention, much less persuade them? To answer this question, cognitive neuroscientist Carmen Simon leverages insights gleaned from her use of advanced technologies to study where people look, for how long, what type of attention leads to memories, and what keeps the brain coming back for more, to determine the effectiveness of sales pitches, marketing materials, corporate presentations, training videos, and other business content. …”

“…Children who participate in group interventions may experience less anxiety symptoms and improved adaptation to the situation surrounding family break up compared with children who did not attend. …”

“…We searched systematically for health economic evaluations of biologic treatment of patients with early RA (disease duration of three years or less) compared with DMARD treatment. We found six studies, which all incorporated a TNF-inhibitor such as aldalimumab, etanercept or infliximab. …”

“…The geographical variations in Gandhran art have received less attention than they deserve. Many surviving Gandhran artefacts are unprovenanced and the difficulty of tracing substantial assemblages of sculpture to particular sites has obscured the fine-grained picture of its artistic geography. …”

“…Instead, a nuanced and multifaceted picture is given in which the United States is less prominent. History is not only written by the victors and, in this case too, the history of Vietnam during this period cannot be attributed solely to Ho Chi Minh and the success of the Communists in 1975. …”

“…The first part of the book presents: the introductory theory of von Neumann algebras - also including the slightly less common theory of generalized positive operators; the various notions of measurability, allowing the interpretation of unbounded affiliated operators as "quantum" measurable functions, with the crucial notion of t-measurability developed in more detail; Jordan *-morphisms (representing quantum measurable transformations) that behave well with regard to t-measurability; and finally the different types of weights that occur naturally in the theory, before presenting a Radon-Nikodym theorem for such weights. …”

“…Since late 2008, financial markets started discriminating between high- and low-quality SNG bonds, and yields reached record-high levels for sub-national governments perceived as less creditworthy. Facing degraded finances, upward pressure on expenditures and deteriorated borrowing conditions, many sub-national governments have used public investment as an adjustment variable to reduce their budget deficits and preserve their spending on welfare, health or education. …”

“…Then, supercharge your k8s flows with k9s, a powerful interface in the terminal for k8s In this video I'll walk you through some useful techniques you can use to setup a remote k8s cluster that runs locally, and will then use k9s, a powerful terminal UI that allows you to control a kubernetes cluster easily with less commands. Topics include: Connect to a remote K8s cluster over SSH using a tunnel Use different SSH flags when creating an SSH tunnel Learn k9s, a powerful terminal UI to control Kubernetes Useful links: * Github Gist with instructions * k9s CLI Tool…”

“…After this chapter, you'll know both the basics and advanced topics to write better, more effective tests with less code and effort."--Resource description page…”

“…While energy efficiency is a well-known term, energy sufficiency might be less familiar. Energy sufficiency is about reducing the demand for energy and asking how much energy is enough for our needs. …”
