Powers election

The functions of the Academie Royal des Sciences were assumed in 1795 by a branch of the newly formed National Institute. Laplace was elected vice president of this reincarnated Academy and then elected president a few months later, in 1796. The duties of this position put him in contact with Napoleon Bonaparte. Three weeks after Napoleon seized power m 1799, Laplace presented him with copies of his work on celestial mechanics. Bonaparte quipped that he would read it in the first six weeks I have free and invited Laplace and his wife to dinner. Three weeks later, Napoleon named Laplace his minister of the interior. After six weeks, however, he was replaced Napoleon thought him a complete failure as an administrator. However, Napoleon continued to heap honors and rewards upon him, regarding him as a decoration of the state. lie made Laplace a chancellor of the Senate with a salai y that made him wealthy, named him to the Legion of Honor, and raised him to the rank of count of the empire. Laplace s wife was appointed a lady-in-waitmg to the Italian court of Napoleon s sister. Laplace responded with adulatory dedications of his works to Napoleon. [Pg.702]

The Michael addition of nitroalkanes to election-deficient alkenes provides a powerful synthetic tool in which it is perceived that the nitro group can be transformed into various functionalities. Various kinds of bases have been used for this transformation in homogeneous solutions, or, alternatively, some heterogeneous catalysts have been employed. In general, bases used in the Henry reaction are also effective for these additions (Scheme 4.18).133... [Pg.103]

One method proposed for estimating the cost of fuel cell power plants is to calculate distributive (bulk) costs as a function of the equipment cost using established factors based on conventional generating technologies. When applied in such a way as to compensate for the differences associated with a fuel cell plant, this approach can yield reasonable results. NETL has elected, based on the international prominence of the Association for the Advancement of Cost Engineering (AACE), to utilize this approach in estimating the costs for fuel cell/turbine power plant systems currently under study. [Pg.319]

X-ray topography is the X-ray analogue of transmission election microscopy and as such provides a map of the strain distribution in a crystal. The theory of image formation is well established and image simulation is thus a powerful means of defect identification. Despite a reputation for being a slow and exacting technique, with modem detector technology and care to match spatial resolution of detector and experiment, it can be a powerful and economical quality-control tool for the semiconductor industry. [Pg.215]

For the next five years, the Congo experienced political and social turmoil. Two presidents were elected and deposed, and there was much arguing over who should run the country and how. Finally, in 1965, a man named Mobutu Sese Seko rose to power. Though the country was remarkably rich in resources such as diamonds, under Sese Seko s rule, the people lived in complete squalor. Still, Sese Seko brought some stability to the region. He ruled for 32 years, until the people finally rebelled in 1997. [Pg.80]

If 100 parts of this carbonate, dissolved in nitric acid and separated by the alkaline carbonates, gives us 100 parts of artificial carbonate, and if the base of these two combinations is the black oxide, we must recognize that invisible hand which holds the balance for us in the formulation of compounds and fashions properties according to its will. We must conclude that nature operates not otherwise in the depths of the world than at its surface or in the hands of man. These ever-invariable proportions, these constant attributes, which characterize true compounds of art or of nature, in a word, this pondus naturae so well seen by Stahl all this, I say, is no more at the power of the chemist than the law of election which presides at all combinations. From these considerations is it not right to believe that the native carbonate of copper... [Pg.231]

Estes Kefauver, Democratic senator from Tennessee from 1949 to 1963, and vice presidential candidate in the 1956 election, ffe was known for his concern about the concentration of economic power among corporations and was an early critic of high prices for prescription drugs and the pharmaceutical industry, ffe cosponsored the Drug Control Act of 1962, which required that drugs approved by the FDA be proven both safe and effective. [Pg.121]

By the use of a breath-powered unit dose dry powder inhaler, which was adapted to the physical properties of TI, relative bioavailability was 50% for the first 3 hours and 30% over the entire 6-hour period in 12 healthy volunteers (Pfutzner et al. 2002). However, although the studies demonstrated pulmonary administration of TI has the advantages of fast onset of action, short duration of action, and lower variability over the SC injections of insulin no attempt has been made to compare pulmonary administration of insulin alone with the same inhaler device. This method of encapsulating biomacromolecules has some advantages and must be considered when electing to deliver a molecule. [Pg.272]

Consider a driven cell, or substance producer (Fig. 7.180). To make an electronation reaction proceed at a particular electrode, it must function as an electron source for electron acceptors in solution, and must therefore receive an electron flow through the conductor from the power supply. But the terminal of the power supply that pushes out an election stream is the negative terminal. Thus, to ensure that an electrode... [Pg.642]
