Yes. But Buddhist prayer beads.

Maybe a little smaller, like beads.

They're warrior beads. They're from Indonesia.

Your beads and buckles and bows

The lines around the edges are a polymer.

Beads of sweat stood on his forehead.

Genetic engineering coupled with polymer physiotechnology coupled with xenotransplantation.

There were beads of sweat on his forehead.

Those prayer beads, where did you get them?

There are approximately 3,500 ivory beads in this burial.

Did you find any rosary beads on the body?

The book itself is a polymer. It is not a tree.

And evidence for first design comes 75,000 years old beads.

This polymer is amazing because it's present in so many different organisms.

The gold spangles and beads stress the luxury of the item.

'Straight up and down like a curtain of small, clear beads.

The hooded clouds, like friars, tell their beads in drops of rain.

I spent a lot of time counting beads and things like that.

Slip it under your tongue, it's a highconcentrate polymer they put in Oreo cookies.

And we've just recently demonstrated this by putting extract of hydrocarbons on little glass beads, and dropping the beads gently down into the nest entrance at the right rate.

It's a layered structure that's mineral and then polymer, and it makes it very, very tough.

You had a string of Buddhist prayer beads with you, and you never did say why.

By simply moving beads that each had place value an abacus was a highly efficient way to compute.

Moreover, we are producing not only fiber but film, sponge, gel, and nano fiber as well by using this polymer.

The little boy has 4,500 beads, so 1,000 more than the adult male, and the little girl has over 5,000.

This is a sculpture made from a million yards of wire and 150,000 glass beads the size of a golf ball.

We've come a long way, but now we have to make this polymer into fiber in order to give it a practical use.

lots and lots of ultraviolet radiation and the melanin this wonderful, complex, ancient polymer compound in our skin served as a superb natural sunscreen.

And with so much polymer, what we really need is technical nutrition, and to use something as elegant as a tree imagine this design assignment

First, the long thread of DNA wraps around proteins clustered into little beads called nucleosomes, which end up looking like a long, beaded necklace.

Those stones have been smuggled as three prayer beads of 33 stones each through Arabia into Andalusia in Spain, where they're safe for 200 years.

Out there beyond that fence, every living thing that crawls, flies or squats in the mud wants to kill you and eat your eyes for JuJu Beads

We give it all the computing power it needs a 1.5 gigahertz Pentium M chip, two FireWire cameras, rate gyros, accelerometers, four force sensors on the foot, lithium polymer batteries.

It actually takes things we would consider waste things like seed husks or woody biomass and can transform them into a chitinous polymer, which you can form into almost any shape.

Probably the most famous of optical cluster catalogs is the Abell Catalog, which was initially compile by George Abell from first Polymer sky surveys, simply looking at the graphic plates with a magnifier.

And he actually took the mammoth ivory and practiced until he could get quite good at making the beads, and even when he was good at it, it took an hour per bead.

There are also already within the ice narrow oblong perpendicular bubbles about half an inch long, sharp cones with the apex upward or oftener, if the ice is quite fresh, minute spherical bubbles one directly above another, like a string of beads.

He altered this mouse so that it was genetically engineered to have skin that was less immunoreactive to human skin, put a polymer scaffolding of an ear under it and created an ear that could then be taken off the mouse and transplanted onto a human being.

And I want you to really watch closely these little white dots on the screen, because, over the five day period, what they do is extend out and through this material, using the energy that's contained in these seed husks to build this chitinous polymer matrix.

And the effect of this is that as the droplets start to form on the bumps, they stay in tight, spherical beads, which means they're much more mobile than they would be if it was just a film of water over the whole beetle's shell.
