The uncertainty values were then mapped into the appropriate uncertainty band, to yield a conservativeness factor.

Consistent with recoveries from such recessions, demand has grown slowly, despite unprecedented fiscal and monetary stimulus, and that explains why the unemployment rate remains high. Indeed, businesses cite uncertainty about the strength of demand, not uncertainty about regulation or taxation, as the main factor holding back job creation.

Arab States of Uncertainty

The uncertainty values have been grouped into five sets of uncertainty bands, with corresponding conservativeness factors, by assigning a given uncertainty values to a given band.

And fifth, the element of uncertainty.

The Anatomy of Global Economic Uncertainty

Play is one of the only human endeavors where uncertainty is actually celebrated. Uncertainty is what makes play fun.

Manufacturing Scientific Uncertainty

4 A working paper on the sources and values for the uncertainty ranges used in developing the conservativeness factor will be provided on the UNFCCC web site before the twenty second session of the SBSTA (see http unfccc.int national_reports accounting_reporting_and_review_under_the_kyoto_protocol items 1029.php ).

Even seasickness is a consequence of uncertainty.

Uncertainty Shifts to China

And uncertainty results in caution.

Things where, you know, a factor of 10 difference can make a factor of 1,000 difference in the outcome.

They make errors of logic in reasoning with uncertainty.

Only doubts and questioning and uncertainty.

Now, who remembers Heisenberg's uncertainty principle?

And you need the fourth factor, which perhaps is the most important factor.

The membership factor dominates, at 75 per cent the population factor increases to 10 per cent, and the contribution factor decreases to 15 per cent.

So what is evolution's answer to the problem of uncertainty?

Such a regime would be a source of legal uncertainty.

China s Xi Factor

The Competition Factor

The Fear Factor

The Phelps Factor

The weight of the contribution factor varies between 55 and 86.4 per cent, the membership factor between 6.9 and 40 per cent and the population factor between 5 and 8.9 per cent.

Finally, variant 5w places the dominant membership factor at 75 per cent, the population factor at 10 per cent and the contribution factor at 15 per cent.

In the fifth variant, the contribution factor is increased to 70 per cent, the weight of the population factor remains at 5 per cent and the weight of the membership factor stands at 25 per cent.

And numbers in between give you the gray levels of uncertainty.

Accordingly, the weighted membership factor is 93,288 points (40 per cent of 233,219), the weighted population factor is 11,611 points (5 per cent) and the weighted contribution factor is 128,270 points (55 per cent).

Back to some of the more mundane issues of thinking about uncertainty.

Latin America s Military Factor

The Palin Non Factor

We are not good at reasoning with uncertainty.

The problem with questions is they create uncertainty.

I define vulnerability as emotional risk, exposure, uncertainty.

Lebanon has since been beset by political uncertainty.

But I m just saying to factor that in, factor that in with all this great advancement, all this pronouncement of great achievement.

In the fourth variant, the weight of the membership factor is raised to 75 per cent, the weight of the population factor is raised to 10 per cent and that of the contribution factor is reduced to 15 per cent.

There's just kind of an ick factor there.

The role of this factor continues to diminish.

Lack of capacity may also be a factor.

However, the contribution factor is allotted the most weight, 70 per cent, the population factor stands at 5 per cent, and the membership factor is reduced to 25 per cent.

The whole history of telephony is a story of dealing with that uncertainty.

Yet considerable uncertainty remains about the magnitude of the impact of rising levels of atmospheric greenhouse gases on temperatures and climate. This uncertainty must be taken seriously when formulating strategies to combat climate change.
