 DoingCL - Pause Procedure
By using three two-minute pauses during the lecture (about every 13 to 18 minutes), the students are given the chance to clarify, assimilate, and retain the information presented during the prior mini-lecture.
The pause procedure (Rowe, 1976; Rowe, 1980; Rowe, 1983; Ruhl, et al., 1987; Bonwell, 1996), can be used as a vehicle to carry into the traditional lecture a variety of active and collaborative learning structures.
One example is for the instructor to initiate the pause by asking students to turn to their neighbor and summarize the main ideas the instructor has just presented.

 HurdlesFirst - Eliminating the Pause
This article will discuss the causes of that pause, however obvious or subtle it may be, and discuss ways to eliminate it so that the hurdling motion is a seamless, flowing one.
The pause on top of the hurdle is worst for hurdlers who lock their lead leg knee.
In such cases, because the trail leg is in pause mode during hurdle clearance, the lead leg stays parallel to the track longer than desired, and the hurdler’s hip and shoulder alignment gets all messed up.

 Tuning Garbage Collection with the 5.0 Java[tm] Virtual Machine
The first pause is to mark as live the objects directly reachable from the roots (e.g., objects on thread stack, static objects and so on) and elsewhere in the heap (e.g., the young generation).
The second pause comes at the end of the marking phase and finds objects that were missed during the concurrent marking phase due to the concurrent execution of the application threads.
The remark pause is affected by the specifics of the application (e.g., a higher rate of modifying objects can increase this pause) and the time since the last minor collection (i.e., more objects in the young generation may increase this pause).

 FIX: PAUSE Command with Input Redirection in FORTRAN
If another PAUSE statement is added to the program, only the command for the first PAUSE is executed.
If a READ statement is added to the program after the PAUSE statement, as in the next example, the program again reads to the end of the file.
These problems are caused by the PAUSE command not reading data from the redirection file in the same way a READ statement would.

 Mash that trash -- Incremental compaction in the IBM JDK Garbage Collector
Pause times of 40 seconds are quite possible for compaction of a 1 GB heap.
In Figure 3, which shows the results of SPECjbb runs using a JDK 140 build on Z/OS machine with 16 CPUs, we can clearly conclude that the pause times have come down from a high of 10 seconds with IC off to a maximum of 0.5 seconds with IC on.
This is a very significant improvement in the performance of the GC with IC, and is a major factor in improving the response times of large Java applications.

 Aural style sheets
For example, if the speech-rate is 120 words per minute (i.e., a word takes half a second, or 500ms) then a 'pause-before' of 100% means a pause of 500 ms and a 'pause-before' of 20% means 100ms.
The pause is inserted between the element's content and any 'cue-before' or 'cue-after' content.
The 'pause' property is a shorthand for setting 'pause-before' and 'pause-after'.

QANA, Lebanon -- Hours after its warplanes killed dozens of women and children in a bombing raid on this southern Lebanese village, Israel agreed last night to halt its aerial war in Southern Lebanon for 48 hours, as international condemnation mounted over the heavy civilian death toll.
Israeli officials said the pause in air attacks would allow civilians to flee southern Lebanese villages where Hezbollah forces are dug in.
