For the single purpose of finding the optimal line the Karst procedure appears to be very efficient. If, as Sharpe suggests may sometimes be the case, the investigator is interested in the sensitivity of the minimum sum to changes in the slope parameter, then Sharpe's algorithm is preferred....
(Her grandmother donated her tablecloth for the occasion and showed a teenage Louise how to pin in the shoulder slope. “My imagination exploded,” she says.) Trotter didn’t read her glowing show reviews—phone calls and messages from friends asking if they could wear the clothes was all...
Next, let's look at this trade in the trade builder. Over the last month, the stock price fell 2.4%, while the thirty-day implied volatility rose 11.9%. The average slope of the trendlines is negative. The heatmap on the right side of the graph is green where volatility and slope are...
Just one foot of vertical rise in sea level will swallow up 100 feet of shoreline if the slope is just 1% or more, a typical slope for most coastlines. To make matters worse, most coastal cities are sinking at a rate faster than the seas are rising. Thus within the next few decades,...
of rearranged regions (i.e., breakpoints on both sides of a rearrangement in both genomes) providing a complete regional annotation of rearrangements. This is a significant improvement compared to current methods which typically do not predict both breakpoints for all rearrangements in both of the ...
It can be a tricky, slippery slope sometimes, thinking we know someone’s thoughts and feelings-we need to know our own. It’s only then we learn to appreciate who we are and the magic we create. We only have control over ourselves and we have every reason to say we will not ...
For real! Next year, I will be teaching phonics and the chunk “CH” instead of teaching slope-intercept and how to calculate a curve or how to diagram complex sentences and then turn them into complex sentence written in the opposite format as previously written. AND——- GET NEW KIDS!
There’s a faint path that makes its way down a steep scree slope, and with each step the path slid downhill just enough to make it feel tenuous. We all made it down safely and were glad to leave that section behind us. The Plains are open to mountain bikes (we saw none), and ...

He can’t play with toys in the way he loves to, by throwing them up in the air and having them land on him and he pretends he’s tackled and it goes on for an hour. Now, he mostly plays with toys laying down. We have a slight slope in our back yard and he can no longer...
