Contradictory to that statement, other critics find the end of The Hairy Ape too simple and predictable.

As such, two interpretations of the sentence are possible: However, in example (21b), the pronominal possessor (her) can only grammatically refer to Lucy.

Therefore, the pronominal possessor patterns with pronominal binding in the alienable construction, but the pronominal possessor patterns with anaphoric binding in the inalienable construction.

By 8:00 am three out of four fortress batteries in Sector II had their fire suppressed or were destroyed, which forced Teodorescu to send the 1/5 Howitzer Section to the area.
|
It took up position behind fort 8 without being noticed by the Bulgarians.
|
The general was not entirely convinced, but as the artillery barrage was supposed to continue while the infantry was approaching the line, he ordered the commanders of the 3/4, 1/4 and 1/1 infantry brigades to begin the attack, and all officers to make an example by personally leading their men in the assault.

Later this order was also received by von Hammerstein and the commander of the 47 Infantry Regiment.

While Temuder's persecution of his opponents in the censorate alienated the new Emperor, Temuder remained in power until his death, which came only two years later.

The return to power of Temudar was signalised by fresh excesses, and by the execution of several of those whom he suspected of having been the cause of his late trial.

From the beginning of his reign, Shidebala showed a political independence and resolution beyond his years.

In a masterly move to counter the influence of the grand empress dowager and Temüder, Shidebala appointed the 21-year-old Baiju, a Jalayir and grandson of Antong, who had illustrious family background and good Confucian education, as the grand councillor of the left in the summer of 1320, which gave Shidabala several political advantages.

strings
|
Basic conceptsA regular expression, often called a pattern, specifies a set of strings required for a particular purpose.
|
One possible approach is the Thompson's construction algorithm to construct a nondeterministic finite automaton (NFA), which is then made deterministic and the resulting deterministic finite automaton (DFA) is run on the target text string to recognize substrings that match the regular expression.
|
The picture shows the NFA scheme N(s*) obtained from the regular expression s*, where s denotes a simpler regular expression in turn, which has already been recursively translated to the NFA N(s).
|
A simple way to specify a finite set of strings is to list its elements or members.
|
However, there are often more concise ways: for example, the set containing the three strings "Handel", "Händel", and "Haendel" can be specified by the pattern H(ä|ae?)ndel; we say that this pattern matches each of the three strings.

Early Modern Solothurn The medieval cooperative election of the mayor and councillors led to the creation of a nearly hereditary oligarchy by the 15th Century.

By the second half of the 17th Century, the government was run by a small group of patricians.

The oligarchs were weakened in the 18th Century, when in 1718–21 the city council managed to regain some powers.

CareerWillys' interest in cars came after an 1899 trip to Cleveland, where he saw an automobile for the first time, and knew they would quickly replace bicycles.

John North Willys (; October 25, 1873 – August 26, 1935) was an American automotive pioneer and diplomat.
|
Early life Born in Canandaigua, New York, Willys began selling bicycles in his hometown and within a few years, expanded into manufacturing his own line of bicycles.
|
Willys returned to New York and opened his first car dealership in Elmira, New York, selling Overland Automomobile brand automobiles.
|
After changing the name to the Willys-Overland Motor Company in 1912, the next year John Willys acquired the Edwards Motor Co of New York which gave him a license to manufacture the patented Knight "sleeve valve" engine.

Catholic protestThe Papacy and German bishops had already protested against the Nazi sterilization of the "racially unfit".

The Church hierarchy was therefore wary of challenging the regime, for fear of further consequences for the Church.

However, on certain matters of doctrine they remained unwilling to compromise.
|
Catholic protests against the escalation of this policy into "euthanasia" began in the summer of 1940.

Despite Nazi efforts to transfer hospitals to state control, large numbers of handicapped people were still under the care of the Churches.

expression
|
CCA1/LHY and TOC1 proteins repress the expression of each other's genes.
|
The first genes identified in the plant clock were TOC1, CCA1 and LHY.
|
The peak expression of the CCA1 and LHY genes occurs at dawn, and the peak expression of the TOC1 gene occurs roughly at dusk.
|
The result is that as CCA1/LHY protein levels start to reduce after dawn, it releases the repression on the TOC1 gene, allowing TOC1 expression and TOC1 protein levels to increase.
|
As TOC1 protein levels increase, it further suppresses the expression of the CCA1 and LHY genes.

Chambers denounced this as an attempt to stifle progressive opinion, but others thought he must have gone home "with the feeling of a martyr".

On the Sunday Samuel Wilberforce, Bishop of Oxford, used his sermon at St. Mary's Church on "the wrong way of doing science" to deliver a stinging attack obviously aimed at Chambers.
|
The church, "crowded to suffocation" with geologists, astronomers and zoologists, heard jibes about the "half-learned" seduced by the "foul temptation" of speculation looking for a self-sustaining universe in a "mocking spirit of unbelief", showing a failure to understand the "modes of the Creator's acting" or to meet the responsibilities of a gentleman.
|
Near the close of autumn 1848, Chambers allowed himself to be brought forward as a candidate for the administrative position of Lord Provost of Edinburgh.

The timing was especially poor, with others seeking any means possible to try and discredit his character.

Charles Felix asked the opinion of Metternich on this, who was unexpectedly opposed to the idea.

The two discussed Charles Albert's conduct for a long time and, although the new queen Maria Christina spoke in his defense, they decided that he was responsible for the conspiracy.
|
As a result of this decision and the circumstances, Charles Albert decided to disavow his liberal ideas - especially as Charles Felix had entertained the idea of eliminating him from the line of succession and passing the crown straight to his son Victor Emmanuel.
|
On 16 September 1822, the infant Victor Emmanuel barely escaped from a fire in his cot, exposing the tenuous nature of the line of succession, which was taken out of danger by the birth of a second son, Ferdinand, on 15 November.

In Florence, Charles Albert cultivated various cultural interests.
