The puncture in space-time is so deep that light moves around in orbit, so that light behind the black hole, as I think we'll see soon, moves around and comes to us on these parallel lines at exactly that orbit.
President Polk said he thought the United States had strong claims to all of the territory. But he said he would compromise. He offered to divide Oregon at the forty-ninth parallel of latitude.
Thousands of tiny, parallel threads called myofibrils squish together to form muscle fibers, which are your actual muscle cells — cells with mitochondria, multiple nuclei, and a cellular membrane called a sarcolemma.
Now the machine needs to be consistent and careful not to distort the face too much, so it only uses affine transformations, essentially using a scale, rotation, and shear to preserve points and parallel lines.
Now, Jan and Dean didn't exactly know where they were going, but they said, okay, you're gonna stand in the middle, bear, and you're gonna hold out your arms to the side, like parallel, right?
The staff is what we call those five horizontal, parallel lines that we write the musical notes on or that we use to indicate which musical notes you're supposed to sing or play.
I'm fascinated that computing, science and religion, like parallel lines that do meet in space, are now asking the same question: Is consciousness obliged to materiality?
And physically, from a research perspective, when we are aligned on the same parallel lines as someone else, we can see each other's body language better.
