In a model using first-floor and basement values and adjusting for each county (model 1A), radon concentrations only began increasing in 2006 (see Supplemental Material, Table S2).
After controlling for confounding variables including geologic unit (model 2, basement values only), there was evidence of an upward trend from 2004 to 2012 (p < 0.001).
And for such a film, its bargain-basement production values and lack of wit unexpectedly prove a greater liability than an asset.
Even so, the film's generally poor acting (the cast is rife with nonprofessionals), insipid conversations (on burning questions like whether a zit is ripe for squeezing) and bargain-basement production values are a tough sell.
Conversely, Andy Webster of The New York Times said, "Its bargain-basement production values and lack of wit unexpectedly prove a greater liability than an asset".
This is evident from the near smooth reflection pattern (weathered layer) and anomalous low resistivity values shown (Figs. 5, 6) whereas the other traverse set (Figs. 7, 8) displays subsurface layers with low hydraulic conductivity evident by planar reflections/moderate resistivity values (lateritic topsoil) and chaotic reflections/high resistivity values (basement).
The traffic in the Blackwall tunnel, the sneering City, the billionaires building gigantic basements, the insane value of small flats, the hordes of tourists, the traffic in the Blackwall tunnel – it is all so appalling that media commentators as well as, you know, ordinary people are loading up their vans and clearing out of town, with parting shots at a city that deserves to be put to sleep.
We also fit model 5 separately for first floor (n = 1,044 buildings and radon values) and basement (n = 18,123 buildings and radon values) because of hypotheses about pathways of radon entry.
For crystalline silicate rocks the dominant rocks of the "basement" crustal rocks the lower values are typical of ones rich in magnesium and iron (e.g., basalt and gabbro) and the higher values are typical of those rich in silica (quartz) and alumina (e.g., granite).
