This was an incredible attainment at that time, when we had no visual artists of any real merit, for instance, and no sculptors and few architects capable of rivalling the Europeans.
Loosely adopting a set of criteria, or "virtues" — order, balance, elegance, coherence, and self-knowledge — he delineates the merits of, for instance, Herzog & de Meuron's 1988 Stone House, in Liguria, whose exposed concrete frame saves rough, mortarless rock from "rustic incoherence".
Saying it was important to foster cooperation to improve performance, the commission suggested awarding merit pay, for instance, to all the firefighters at a fire company or to all the third- and fourth-grade teachers at a school, as well as to the school's reading teachers.
This question merits further investigation for instance by using more complex experiments, such as several injections of different masses of tracer to identify all the parameters of the compartmental model including the apparent affinity (KdVr) and density (Bmax) [35, 36].
Mr. Giuliani has proposed individualized merit pay based, for instance, on how well each police officer or teacher performs.
And France is a much more hierarchical society than the United States; even though there's no longer an official aristocracy, there is an aristocracy of merit (there is, for instance, a Pantheon in the heart of Paris).
In a paper on the merits of free trade, for instance, he wrote, "In Washington, the truth is just another special interest, and one that is not particularly well financed".

Turner, for instance, now merits 17,000 words, almost the length of a slim book.
So, rather than being used to enhance the experience of the particular product a consumer bought, the data a connected device harvests might be funneled off elsewhere — and be used by prospect employers to judge the merits of a job application, for instance, or insurance companies to ascertain the risk of accepting a new customer, and so on.
Even the items you approach with a heavier heart – the 1980 O-level paper in "sexism studies", for instance – would merit an Orwellian defence.
