Mr. Bush's preparations sped up during his weekend at Camp David, where Karen Hughes, one of his closest aides, and his speechwriter, Michael Gerson, drafted his brief speech to the country, which was delivered just after the first strikes and just before the first kickoffs of Sunday football.
Ultimately, ease of preparation and speed are paramount here; it's not worth upsetting the cook's delicate control over the squadron of dishes he's about to bring in for a landing.
There are many papers trying to characterize and classify the numerous techniques available on the market in terms of preparation (centrifugation speed and use of anticoagulant), content (platelets, leucocytes, and growth factors), and applications.
Although not as desirable for discovery, these attributes of relative ease of sample preparation and speed of analysis and data output, as well as lower startup and operation costs, present SELDI-TOF as a more suitable mass spectrometry platform for a clinical test.
This activity occurred 3300 ms before target onset and provides evidence for the temporally ordered involvement of both cognitive-control and motor-preparation processes already at early stages during the preparation for speeded action.
Our explicit temporal generalization task required overt estimation of the duration of an empty interval bounded by visual markers, whereas our temporal expectancy task presented visual stimuli at temporally predictable intervals, which facilitated motor preparation thus speeding target detection.
While an overt estimate of the duration of an empty interval was required in the temporal generalization task, temporal regularities in stimulus presentation allowed for enhanced preparation and speeded motor performance in the temporal expectancy task.
Winning the birding World Series -- or even placing respectably -- requires speed, preparation and discipline as well as an encyclopedic knowledge of birds and bird calls.
"Your donation to the Give to GOSH appeal could help fund a DNA preparation robot to speed up and improve the precision of genetic testing," she said.
Its great advantage lies in the minimal sample preparation required and speed of measurement.
