Auscultation of pulmonary sounds provides valuable clinical information but has been regarded as a tool of low diagnostic value due to the inherent subjectivity in the evaluation of these sounds.
For both airlines, the Concordes, which cruise at twice the speed of sound, are valuable corporate symbols, despite the fact that they have been in service for 25 years.
Arguably bootstrap resampling, as illustrated in this study, can serve as a sound and valuable means to provide a second line of evidence on model outcomes and shed more insight on variables (e.g., climate and landscape factors) included in the models.
That sounds like a valuable lesson, but perhaps a slightly juvenile one.
Because the olivocochlear bundle modulates the activity of outer hair cells, which in turn govern the amount of amplification in the cochlea, it appears that a gain-control mechanism that suppresses the response to high-intensity sounds has a valuable protective function in hearing.
Gaining interactivity in sound is very valuable, but this has to be balanced against loss of authenticity when compared to recorded sound.
These sound like environmentally valuable trends — yet they seem to imply that the world's energy and carbon challenges are gradually solving themselves, since decoupling and decarbonization, like increases in efficiency, are nothing new.
Hucknall claims that, "Allowing valuable sound recordings to pass into the public domain does not create a public asset: it represents a massive destruction of UK wealth and a significant loss to the UK taxpayer".
A spokesman for Towers Perrin said that it did not comment on specific clients but that the firm was confident about its practices and that its expertise had "resulted in the delivery of valuable, sound and objective executive compensation advice".
Allowing valuable sound recordings to pass into the public domain does not create a public asset: it represents a massive destruction of UK wealth, and a significant loss to the UK taxpayer as exploitation moves offshore or into the grey market.
