Speranski went on to say that honor, l'honneur, cannot be upheld by privileges harmful to the service; that honor, l'honneur, is either a negative concept of not doing what is blameworthy or it is a source of emulation in pursuit of commendation and rewards, which recognize it.
This would be the first year he'd gone into the negative in a thousand of years.
Damian chuckled despite himself, unable to shake the negative emotions running through him.

I don't mean to sound so negative about him.
Although the direct object of Pasteur was to prove a negative, yet it was on these experiments that sterilization as known to us was developed.
This is the moment to examine whether there is a more complete polarization in a direction somewhat oblique; and it is found that with 0 positive there is, in fact, a direction of more complete polarization, while with 0 negative the polarization is more imperfect than in the perpendicular direction itself.
A cylinder condenser has its inner surface insulated and charged to a high positive or negative potential.
He was peppered with questions from the rescuers, many of whom he recognized, but he held responses to a negative shake of his head and Billy Langstrom's name.
The WWW news was either negative or tardy because each took turns bickering at the other until Dean was ready to toss the entire family.
Table Potential, Dissipation, Ioniz If we regard the potential gradient near the ground as representing a negative charge on the earth, then if the source of supply of that charge is unaffected the gradient will rise and become high when the operations by which discharge is promoted slacken their activity.
That great separation of positive and negative electricity sometimes takes place during rainfall is undoubted, and the charge brought to the ground seems preponderatingly negative.
Napier uses abundantes and defectivae for positive and negative, defining them as meaning greater or less than nothing ("Abundantes sunt quantitates majores nihilo: defectivae sunt quantitates minores nihilo").
In the raised position a negative battery is connected to the distributor and in the depressed position a positive battery.
Each transmitter is therefore able to transmit a separate series of positive and negative currents in different combinations; these are distributed, by suitably arranged distributors and relays at the receiving end of the line, into their respective receivers.
Let's consider examples of how the effect is positive for some, negative for some, but the net is a gain in the overall wealth of the system.
Sometimes they are negative and sometimes they are positive.
To some extent, we have this in the form of high taxes on cigarettes, which are seen to have negative externalities, and a home interest deduction on income taxes, as home ownership is viewed as having positive social good.
Economic changes that have long-term positive benefits for society often have short-term negative ones.
Thus for a dot, first a negative and then a positive current is sent to the line, the effect of the current continuing during the time required for the paper to travel the space between two holes.
The proportion of occurrences of negative potential under a clear sky was much above its average in autumn.
Lenard, Elster and Geitel, and others have found the potential gradient negative near waterfalls, the influence sometimes extending to a considerable distance.
A negative charge is lost much faster than a positive charge.
Suppose the arm c of the switch S to be in contact with 2; thin when the key is manipulated it sends alternately positive and negative currents into the line.
I didn't think I was being negative, but there's a lot to think about, Alex.
The largest positive and negative values recorded are met with during disturbed weather.
During rain the potential is usually but not always negative, and frequent alternations of sign are not uncommon.
In some localities, however, negative potential gradient is by no means uncommon, at least at some seasons, in the absence of rain.
The colour and appearance differ in the two cases, red predominating in a positive, blue in a negative discharge.
Thus a latent image of the " reseau-lines " will be formed on the sensitive plate, and, when the latter has been exposed to the sky in the telescope, we obtain, on development, a negative of the images both of the stars and of the reseau-lines.
We have seen the negative effect of hubris in individuals and nations throughout history.
For working " double current," two sets of accumulators are provided, one set to send the positive and the other set the negative currents; that is to say, when, for example, a double current Morse key is pressed down it sends, say, a positive current from one set, but when it is allowed to rise to its normal position then a negative current is transmitted from the second set of accumulators.
If the positive is called the signalling current, the line will be charged positively each time a signal is sent; but as soon as the signal is completed a negative charge is communicated FIG.
Since each letter is represented by a specific combination of positive and negative currents, it is possible, by means of the combinations, to close a local circuit at any given interval, and so cause the paper to be pressed against the periphery of the type-wheel at the time when the letter required is opposite.
Apparently, there is no non-smoking section in the restaurant, which has been a negative for some visitors.
"Tetrahedral co-ordinates" are a system of quadriplanar co-ordinates, the fundamental planes being the faces of a tetrahedron, and the co-ordinates the perpendicular distances of the point from the faces, a positive sign being given if the point be between the face and the opposite vertex, and a negative sign if not.
Hard on this came the recognition of the fact that freely charged positive and negative ions are always present in the atmosphere, and that a radioactive emanation can be collected.
Thus for a dash the interval between the positive and the negative current is equal to the time the paper takes to travel over twice the space between two successive holes.
The function of the " combiner " in each receiving instrument is so to group the received combination of positive and negative currents that they operate polarized relays in such a manner that the position of the tongues corresponds with the operation of the levers on the transmitter.
At the sending station one battery was to have its positive pole connected to the earth and its negative pole to an insulated condenser.
At the receiving station a telephone receiver was placed in series with another insulated battery, the negative terminal of which was to be in connexion with the earth.
By using a word with a negative connotation, Jenny caused her graduation speech to be a disaster.
He was not one of those many diplomats who are esteemed because they have certain negative qualities, avoid doing certain things, and speak French.
Again Pierre's negative answer seemed to distress him, and he hastened to add:
What's this negative-positive business and electrostatic field?
How can you still seem so negative when you.re surrounded by all this!
In the Rowland multiple method of telegraphic working, the transmitter consists of a mechanical keyboard provided with a series of levers, which effect certain combinations of positive and negative currents for each letter.
If workers are in unsafe work environments, they are bearing a risk that has a measurable negative cost.
A great way to solve a dilemma is to make a decision table, listing all the positive and negative aspects for each option.
We'll keep a low profile and limit any negative publicity to really egregious errors.
Not exactly the reaction she had expected, but certainly not a negative one.
At most stations a negative potential gradient is exceptional, unless during rain or thunder.
In pure algebra Descartes expounded and illustrated the general methods of solving equations up to those of the fourth degree (and believed that his method could go beyond), stated the law which connects the positive and negative roots of an equation with the changes of sign in the consecutive terms, and introduced the method of indeterminate coefficients for the solution of equations.'
So, negative on our end.
In diameter, charged to a negative potential of at least 2000 volts, is supported between insulators in the open, usually at a height of about 2 metres.
