Racism is far more ubiquitous, deep-seated and reflexive in both China and Russia than it is in America or western Europe, precisely because events like those in Ferguson lead America to engage in a soul-searching national debate, while similar events in Russia and China generally lead either to no internal self-examination, or to a hardening of racial animosities.
The Delphi methodology was applied initially to predict precisely future events, especially focusing on (1) probability, (2) desirability, (3) strategic importance and (4) feasibility of various operations and events.
But these are precisely the events that must be taken into account in a realistic assessment of risk.
Williams's and Star's cooperation would be critical to helping prosecutors determine precisely how events unfolded.
His long train of precisely dated events emphasizes both the increasing exactitude of time division and the enormous accomplishments of the French Bureau of Longitudes and the Swiss Office of Intellectual Property -- neither of them a public sector sinecure.
Although Strauss would later state otherwise, he had had ample opportunity to get to know "Cassandra," which depicts Agamemnon's homecoming from the Trojan War, precisely the events that form the back story to "Elektra".
We present the results of an R&D study for a specialized processor capable of precisely reconstructing events with hundreds of charged-particle tracks in pixel and silicon strip detectors at 40 MHz, thus suitable for processing LHC events at the full crossing frequency.
Precisely how events affected Goethe - relatively sheltered in a Weimar that for a decade enjoyed a separate peace - is not made clear until we reach 1797, when a planned new Italian journey is aborted because Napoleon is rampaging down that way.
And it appears that we are now in an era that will be defined precisely by events that appear, by our current standards of normality, highly improbable: flash floods, hundred-year storms, persistent droughts, spells of unprecedented heat, sudden landslides, raging torrents pouring down from breached glacial lakes, and, yes, freakish tornadoes.
But maybe the opposite is true -- that precisely these events are typical of warfare in the 21st century.
