Supply of cash is also opening up in India, too, even if larger investors like Tiger Global and SoftBank have pulled back somewhat after massive spending sprees over the past two years.
Therefore we should not neglect planets orbiting stars which are somewhat more massive the Sun when searching for evidence of complex life: the 4.2 Ga that it took on Earth to get to the Cambrian explosion need not be a universal timescale.
An outcome of the study is that one should not neglect stars which are somewhat more massive and more short-lived than the Sun when considering the possibilities for complex extraterrestrial life, since the rate of evolution during much of the Proterozoic was probably tied to solar brightening and cooling of the planetary interior.
In its annual credit report on Iceland, Moody's said that the country's economy had stabilised somewhat following its massive banking and currency crisis, but fiscal tightening and weak investment would cause the recession to linger well into 2010.
Obama's approach straddles that divide somewhat, calling for massive deployment efforts as well as more funding of basic energy science by a new agency, ARPA-E.
Conservatives and Texans are generally disinclined to trust the federal government, and some clearly see something ominous in such a massive, somewhat secretive series of drills.
But somewhat ironically, the massive investment and growth in soybean oil production in the 1990s is not actually associated with increased consumption in Brazil: although the data are difficult to interpret, per capita calorie consumption (already relatively high) appeared to decline, or at least stabilize during the 1990s (Table 2).
Drippler was originally built for Android, so is benefiting somewhat from Android's massive market share and reach.
Dow Jones is doing its best to market the index, most recently through the massive (though somewhat ludicrous) celebration of the Dow's passage through the 10,000 mark in March.
The projector offers a much larger surface area than you get on a standard smartwatch (though that's somewhat counteracted by the massive footprint required to house the technology), so there's that.
