The biological weapons programme of Iraq was much smaller than its chemical weapons programme and various missile projects in its size and scale.

First the physical constraints. We actually had to operate on three discrete sites, all of them well, well smaller than the size of the building.

Yes, they do have larger body size, but many of them are smaller, but we're interested in the time it took them to achieve that.

And we expect those younger women to be shorter simply because they have had less time to grow. In five other cases, scientists found women in developed countries maturing earlier, in two of them at smaller size (in the other three cases, size was not measured).

Smaller objects have smaller Schwarzschild radii.

Our world is getting smaller and smaller.

In 2004, the size of the ozone hole was smaller than the average over the past decade, although the total amount of ozone destroyed, which relates to the size, depth and persistence of the ozone hole, was estimated to be much higher than most years in the past decade.

The Spaak committee devised a system that balanced the voting power of states of varying size. Clearly, a system of one vote per member state would have meant domination by Europe s smaller states.

Smaller space is going to make for smaller utilities save some more money there, but also a smaller footprint.

They were shrinking vacuum tubes, making them smaller and smaller.

Now, what's happening is that as transistors are getting smaller and smaller and smaller, they no longer behave like this.

If you take a smaller paper, you make a smaller flexagon.

So, too, in the US, the smaller banks that largely finance small and medium size enterprises have been all but neglected. The federal government under both President George W. Bush and Barack Obama allocated hundreds of billions of dollars to prop up the mega banks, while allowing hundreds of these crucially important smaller lenders to fail.

Make it smaller.

But why is the technical overload crisis, the complexity crisis, accelerating now? In the hardware world, it's because we the consumers want everything to be smaller, smaller, smaller.

And I cut it into smaller questions, and I have the answer to these smaller questions.

It's smaller than this.

So I started smaller.

This book is smaller.

But with this experiment, we've confined that same mass to a much smaller volume that's 10,000 times smaller.

Notice these other, smaller protuberances.

The plant also gets smaller.

Make it faster and smaller.

Here's corn ethanol. It's smaller.

Some of them are smaller.

This is smaller than that.

Subject matters are broken up into smaller and smaller pieces, with increasing emphasis on the technical and the obscure.

That operates over smaller scales than gravity, which explains why you and I are smaller than stars or planets.

Which size?

Up until recently, that was the Solar System four Earth like planets with small radius, smaller than about two times the size of the Earth and that was of course Mercury, Venus, Mars, and of course the Earth, and then the two big, giant planets.

Based on these considerations, a much smaller facility, with substantially fewer staff than proposed by Kuwait, should be sufficient to meet project needs. The main preserve building should be limited to the size needed for modest offices, working space and a small public visitor's centre.

The rhythm can get much smaller.

More people, smaller spaces, less stuff.
