Convenience sampling
Sometimes called grab or opportunity sampling,
this is the method of choosing items arbitrarily and in an unstructured manner from the frame.
Though almost impossible to treat rigorously,
it is the method most commonly employed in many practical situations.
In social science research, snowball sampling is a similar technique,
where existing study subjects are used to recruit more subjects into the sample.
Non-response
In survey sampling, many of the individuals identified as part of the sample may be unwilling to participate or impossible to contact.
In this case, there is a risk of differences, between (say) the willing and unwilling,
leading to selection bias in conclusions.
This is often addressed by follow-up studies which make a repeated attempt to contact the unresponsive
and to characterize their similarities and differences with the rest of the frame

In pragmatics, a presupposition is an assumption about the world whose truth is taken for granted in discourse.

An utterance describing pragmatic function is described as metapragmatic.

Self-referential metapragmatic statements are indexical.

While destructive testing usually provides a more reliable assessment of the state of the test object, destruction of the test object usually makes this type of test more costly to the test object's owner than nondestructive testing.

that is beautiful, F'elf....

one of my favorite since I was just a young girl...still means the same to me, now 30 yrs later.

SHE walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that 's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellow'd to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impair'd the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress,
Or softly lightens o'er her face;
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.

And on that cheek, and o'er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent!

"The picture painted is quite grim so it's time to collectively sit down and get our act together," Barnett added, suggesting the need for conservation, more water storage, and a slowdown on development in the desert Southwest.

"The building is just going crazy, so it would be a pretty good idea to put a curb on that unless they can figure out how to get more water," he said.

The study also included researchers from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, the University of Washington, Seattle, and the National Institute for Environmental Studies in Japan.

"Our results are not good news for those living in the western United States," they conclude. The research "foretells of water shortages, lack of storage capability to meet seasonally changing river flow, transfers of water from agricultural to urban uses and other critical impacts."
