But the proliferation of low-cost reality shows on television has drained the nation's hitherto-robust supply of slightly famous people to the point that last year's "Celebrity Apprentice" featured a woman whose claim to fame was opening briefcases on "Deal or No Deal".
Within the population as a whole, moderate or "mainline" Protestants fell quite steeply from 18.1% to 14.7% but some decline was also seen among the evangelicals, seen hitherto as a robust minority: their share declined from 26.3% to 25.4%.
Already the split in the A.N.C. has opened up space for robust criticism of hitherto untouchable South African leaders.
These molecules provide a rich hitherto unexplored resource for drugdevelopment.
It sounded a more robust, rugged work than hitherto and was appropriately graced by the warm, sure and direct voice of the soprano Emily Halpern in the short vocal solos of the middle movement.
Yet Robin van Persie, who is on the cusp of breaking two records in English soccer, is robust neither of build nor, hitherto, of temperament.
We have used 78 of the most conserved genes to calculate a more extensive and robust multigene phylogenetic tree than hitherto for opisthokonts (Fig. 1; Supporting Table S1).
Our findings unveil that robust intestinal renewal relies on hitherto unrecognized plasticity in enteroblasts and reveal their active role in sensing and/or responding to local demand.
Despite the limitations on sensitivity, in our hands the TU-tagging method was robust using undissected larvae, revealing 17 hitherto unknown cell type-specific transcripts in developing zebrafish hair cells.
In this study, we aimed to identify GC target genes involved in the differentiation of human adipocytes, on the basis of (1) a hitherto unknown function in adipocyte biology, (2) a robust induction in human adipocyte differentiation models, and (3) the potential to act upstream of the adipogenic master regulator PPARγ.
