When he awoke it was still pitch dark, except for the flicker of the veiled lamp; and the continual roaring and oscillation testified to the unrelaxed velocity of the train.
It's time that they found out, if they're ever going to." The doctor's glasses fell off with a click, and then hung, swinging, from their thick black cord. When their oscillation had all ended, "What has started up your curiosity just now, Reed?" "Signs of the times, I suppose," Reed answered crisply. "What's more, doctor, I don't quite like them."
Mr Condorcet's picture of what may be expected to happen when the number of men shall surpass the means of their subsistence is justly drawn. The oscillation which he describes will certainly take place and will without doubt be a constantly subsisting cause of periodical misery.
Wait a minute, though; perhaps by listening intently I may hear some sound, however feeble. Therefore I concentrate all my vital power in my sense of hearing. Moreover, I try in case I should really not be on terra firma to distinguish some movement, some oscillation of my prison.
They gained twenty years' freedom from all restraint and reform at the cost of the whirlwind of the red terror; and in their turn the unbridled extremists of the terror induced a blind reaction; and so, with convulsion and oscillation from one extreme to another, with alterations of violent radicalism and violent Bourbonism, the French people went through misery to a shattered goal."
The temporary inequalities arising between his "even pacing" on an axis and his alternately accelerated and retarded elliptical movement occasion, in fact, an oscillation to and fro of the boundaries of light and darkness on his globe over an arc of 47° 22', in the course of his year of 88 days.
Life presents, in fact, a more or less violent oscillation between the two. The reason of this is that each of these two poles stands in a double antagonism to the other, external or objective, and inner or subjective. Needy surroundings and poverty produce pain; while, if a man is more than well off, he is bored.
A better amplifying receiving set can be made than the one just described by using a vacuum tube detector instead of the crystal detector. A Radio Frequency Transformer Amplifying Receiving Set. In this set, which gives better results than where a grid leak is used, the amplifier tube is placed in the first oscillation circuit and the detector tube in the second circuit.

The current was barely indicated by the gentle oscillation of a few water-lily leaves. Two big blue dragonflies poised and quivered upon our floats, and not a fish seemed to care to disturb them. "Well," said M. Flamaran, "so you are still managing clerk to Counsellor Boule?" "For the time." "Do you like it?" "Not particularly." "What are you waiting for?" "For something to turn up."
