Since the death-spiral session, utilities around the country have sought to slow the growth of solar: by supporting laws and regulations that would reduce targets for renewable energy; by ending "net metering" laws that force utilities to pay solar customers retail prices for the surplus energy they put back on the grid; by imposing "connection fees" to make up for lost revenues.
Most university basketball programs have 13 scholarships, but L.S.U. has only nine because of N.C.A.A. sanctions imposed in connection with cash payments to players and other violations during the tenure of Dale Brown, the former L.S.U.
"I explained to US officials that Japan is going to lift sanctions that were specially imposed in connection with the abduction issue, and they well understood that," Nobuo Kishi, a senior vice foreign minister, told reporters in Washington.
The argument that an individual who received Form W-2 wages is not subject to federal income tax unless the tax is imposed in connection with "government granted privileges" was ruled frivolous by the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit in Coleman v. Commissioner.
The overhead imposed by connection-based protocols for high-performance computing (HPC) systems can be detrimental to system resource usage and performance.
Moreover, a massive penetration of distributed and renewable resources will involve a considerable effort in terms of new standards, addressing communication and protection issues, as well as grid codes imposing stringent connection requirements [68].
This 'vibration fatigue' is an unavoidable factor that can be aggravated by poor metallurgical consistency in the construction material, undue stress imposed on the connection from side load, other system design characteristics, or simply improper installation practices.
Inter-storey drift history imposed on each connection of SMRF is generated by seismic dynamic analysis and adopted in fatigue damage calculation based on Palmgren Miner's rule and the experimentally determined fatigue curve.
The fragility functions provide estimates of the probability of yielding and of experiencing fracture as a function of the peak interstory drift ratio imposed in the connection, hence are particularly suited for performance-based methodologies for assessing the seismic performance of existing steel moment resisting frame buildings.
The siting of telestroke equipment and the need for an internet connection imposed restrictions on the site of clinical care.
She felt that Hannah's condition lay at the "edges of knowledge," and she didn't want to impose false connections.
