The Vmax is a special point. At Vmax, the velocity does not depend on the concentration of substrate. Most assays are performed at substrate concentrations that are near saturating (the word near is usually used because Vmax, like Nirvana, is approached, not reached). For practical people, though, 99 percent of Vmax is as good as Vmax. The Vmax and v have exactly the same units. The Vmax conceals the dependence of the velocity on the concentration of enzyme. It s buried in there. If Vmax is expressed in units of micromolar per minute ((xM/min), then doubling the enzyme concentration doubles Vmax in contrast, if Vmax (and v) are given in units of micromoles per minute per milligram [p,mol/(min mg), i.e., specific activity], the normalized velocity and Vmax won t depend on enzyme concentration.

As for me, the bulk of my mind stimulation and mystic transport comes from the Encyclopaedia Britannica and its wonderful panoply of topics that induce neural nirvana. Writer A. J. Jacobs expresses the pleasure and shocking mind-expansion one receives from the Britannica, as he completes his quest to read all entries in alphabetical order ... 

We have never met, but reading your Sex, Drugs, Einstein, and Elves outline and sample, and investigating you in more detail, makes me feel that I did. Your descriptions of Shrub Oak, which I must admit I had never really seen as a nirvana, now makes me wonder whether choosing to live in Cortlandt Manor was wise when Shrub Oak was just down the road.

Hinton s disciples spent days mediating on the cubes until some thought they could mentally reassemble these cubes in the fourth dimension—thus achieving nirvana. Figure 4.7 shows an unraveled hypercube. Although the cubes of this tesseract seem static, a 4-D person can fold the cubes into a hypercube by lifting each individual cube off our universe into the fourth dimension. Note that Hinton used the words ana and kata in the same way I use the terms upsilon and delta to describe motions in the 4-D world as counterparts for terms like up and down. (I find that upsilon and delta are easier to remember than ana and kata because of the up in upsilon and d in delta.)... 

But to increase something is not exactly to maximize it, any more than to reduce something is to minimize it. However, Buddhism also uses superlatives, referring to the greatest sukkha. Yet it employs them when speaking of a maximum (or minimum) of satiation (in satisfaction), which may be termed absolute and without constraint, nirvana t of which the Buddha says that all the buddhas say that it is the supreme state. Nevertheless, it is so rarely attained, and with such... 

It is also worth recalling that, of the two great forms of Buddhism, mahayana Buddhism places more emphasis on altruism than theravada Buddhism does. This is one of the main distinctions between them. In mahayana Buddhism, the saint is the bodhisattva who so loves others that, when he arrives on the threshold of nirvana, he refrains from entering it so that they may rejoin him and he may help them by lending them some of his numerous merits. However, it may certainly be asserted that theravada Buddhism is the purest form, being closest to the origins and therefore more properly the true Buddhism.

Not all heroin casualties are due to overdose. Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead died in a drug detox center in 1996 of poor health complicated by years of heroin addiction. Nirvana singer Kurt Cobain s 1994 suicide was believed by many to be related to his inability to kick his heroin habit. His journal, published posthumously... 

Roemer, "Choke of tedink ue under capitalism, socialism and Nirvana ". Here he shows that the choke of tedinique when capital is concentrated in a few hands may di0er from the choice that will be made when it is equally distributed. This even holds when the individuals have the same preferences in both cases to work as Utile as possible, subject to a consumptkm cotutralni, and to accumulate when they can do so without further work.
