Aorist (from Greek αοριστος, indefinite) is a term used in certain Indo-European languages to refer to a particular grammatical tense and/or aspect. It is often distinguished from the imperfect and perfect, and is similar to the preterite in languages such as Spanish. There is some confusion over whether the aorist is a tense or an aspect. This reflects the schizophrenic nature of the aorist in Ancient Greek, the most well-known language with an aorist. In the indicative, the Ancient Greek aorist represents a combinatio ...

Contrition (from the Latin contritus 'ground to pieces, i.e. crushed by guilt) is sincere and complete remorse (i.e. regret with a sense of guilt) for sins one has committed. The remorseful person is said to be contrite. It is a key concept to many Christians, especially Catholics, who can then seek divine forgiveness through the sacrament of Confession, nowadays rather called Penance. It is often ...

The weapons of Perfect Dark include handguns, rifles, sub-machine guns, a shotgun, rocket launchers, combat knives, grenade launchers, various explosives, and a handful of superior extraterrestrial weapons.

Also, six exotic alien weapons are available, three Maian and three Skedar. One of the Maian weapons, the Farsight XR-20, is an interesting weapon, most likely inspired by the movie Era ...

There was one feature initially planned for the game that was scrapped in the final version — Perfect Head, which would have allowed players with a Transfer Pak and a Game Boy Camera to take a picture of a person's face, then convert the picture into a mask that could be applied to the player's character. When Rare was asked why this feature was not implemented, they initially claimed that it had turned out to be more complex than originally thought, and thus dropped it. However, it later came out that Rare had in fact gotten Perfect Head ...

The following is a quotation used with permission. "At first sight, The Perfection of Wisdom is bewildering, full of paradox and apparent irrationality. Yet once one accepts that trying to unravel these texts without experiencing the intuitions behind them is not satisfactory, it becomes clear that paradox and irrationality are the only means of conveying to the reader those underlying intuitions that would otherwise be impossible to express. Edward Conze succinctly summarized what The Perfection of Wisdom is about, saying, 'Th ...

The earliest sutra in this class is the Aṣṭasāhasrikā Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra or "Perfection of Wisdom in 8,000 Lines", which was probably put in writing about 100 BCE. More material was gradually compiled over the next two centuries. As well as the sutra itself there is a summary in verse, the Ratnaguṇasaṁcaya Gāthā, which some believe to be slightly older as because it is not written in standard literary Sanskrit. 8, ...

The story is set in a seemingly perfect global society whose genesis remains vague: "Christ, Marx, Wood and Wei led us to this perfect day" is what schoolchildren learn to chant. Uniformity is the defining feature; there is only one language and all ethnic groups have been eugenically merged into "The Family". There are only four personal names for men, and four corresponding names for women. Instead of surnames, individuals are distinguished by a nine-character alphanumeric code. Everyone eats, drinks ...

The model is in most cases only a distant approximation of real markets, with the possible exception of certain large street markets. In general, few, if any of the conditions listed above will apply in real markets. For example, firms will never have perfect information about each other, and there will always be some transaction costs. In a perfectly competitive market, there will be both allocative efficiency and productive efficiency. Allocative efficiency occurs when price (P) is equal to marginal cost (MC), at which point t ...

Some say that agriculture, with a large amount of suppliers, relatively elastic demand, and almost perfectly substitutable products is an approximation to the perfect competition model. This may have been true in some places at certain times, but in modern economies it generally is not. For example, in the global agriculture market, agricultural subsidies are provided via the Common Agricultural Policy to U.S. and European farmers, whose products are exported (dumped) at prices below the cost of production. Any form of government interventio ...
