Our power supply has disappeared completely for long periods.

All of the remaining thorium isotopes have half lives that are less than thirty days and the majority of these have half lives that are less than ten minutes.

Post revolutionary periods, however, allow for more variety.

What exactly al Qaeda is, or was, remains in dispute.

Quiet periods of a few days have alternated with almost continuous Strombolian eruptions since then.

This has been the case throughout recent decades, because of its image of natural beauty, mild climate and relaxed lifestyle, but is particularly true during periods of economic growth.

But periods of global economic expansion have virtually always been characterized by symbiotic imbalances.

The bilateral relationship has been rocky ever since, alternating between periods of friction and conciliation.
