Fed officials are increasingly reconciled to the reality of a downturn in global interest rates that has dampened the force of the Fed's stimulus campaign even as the Fed stands still.
Taken together, these data demonstrate the potential for complementation to decrease short-term evolvability in one system by dampening the force of selection, but potentially increase long-term evolvability and phenotypic flexibility by maintaining high levels of diversity.
To determine whether these changes in [Ca2+]i were related to membrane potential, and therefore perhaps to actions on K+ channels, we next repeated these experiments, but pre-constricting with 30 mmol/L K+ and l-NAME (instead of U46619), in order to partially dampen the driving force for K+ efflux thus preventing hyperpolarization through opening of K+ channels.
At low surfactant concentrations, the addition of salt improved foaminess by dampening the hydrophobic force.
This paper also presents modifications of the edge-based model, such as the method for removing self-crossings and loops or the method of dampening the inflation force which moves nodes if they approach the edge being determined.
Ms. Yusuf, the Human Rights Commission's chairwoman, is not confident that the additional security forces will dampen the underlying causes of the violence.
Today, however, museums are the province of curators and boards of trustees, who often work to dampen the effects of market forces and idiosyncratic taste, even as they depend upon private philanthropy and corporate sponsorship to survive.
And it deprives the Eurozone of the fiscal and monetary tools to dampen the effects of recessionary economic forces.
The oncogenic potential of BCL-3 is illustrated by its capacity to dampen the tumor suppressor p53 and to force Cyclin D1 expression in order to enhance proliferation [ 31, 32].
And while Ms. Davis sings with a dark, soulful intensity in a steel-edged voice that feels right both for Brecht and the moody rock music of Mr. Sheik, there's sometimes an opaque, remote quality to her performance that dampens the force of Grusha's natural innocence.
