For as cutting as Letterman often was during his 22 years behind the Late Show desk, Colbert getting this explicit doesn't exactly fall into the grander tradition of late-night shows on broadcast TV. The only other broadcast late-night host channeling anything remotely similar to Colbert's blunt outrage is Seth Meyers, whose Late Night airs at 12:35 am and is still far more sparing with the expletives than Colbert's Late Show.

For most cooking applications the dried buds, which are also referred to as flowers, are used. Lavender greens have a more subtle flavour when compared to rosemary. The potency of the lavender flowers increases with drying which necessitates more sparing use to avoid a heavy, soapy aftertaste. Chefs note to reduce by two- thirds the dry amount in recipes which call for fresh lavender buds.

On one occasion, when Alexander attended a sacrifice, he threw large quantities of incense on the fire, Leonidas admonished him to "be more sparing of it till you have conquered the country where it grows." Alexander sent him afterwards from Asia 600 talents' weight of incense and myrrh, "that he might no longer be penurious" (so ran the message) "in his offerings to the gods." It may be questioned whether the rough discipline of Leonidas was not carried further than was altogether beneficial to Alexander's character.

There are fewer places to hide I think, so that's the main thing. It's clear now who's doing what. It took us a long time to be confident enough to do that.""The riots were kind of inevitable… if you've grown up to 16 with absolutely no opportunities" - interview with Jonathan Higgs in The New Statesman by Rob Pollard, 7 February 2013 The album was hailed as "another tour de force"Review of Arc in The Observer by Phil Mongredien, 13 January 2013 by The Observer, although The Guardian was more sparing with praise - "Jerky opener Cough Cough may showcase them at their most self-consciously wacky, but The Peaks is at the opposite end of the spectrum, attempting the kind of stadium melancholia beloved of Elbow or Coldplay.

During the 1970s, a new understanding of metastasis led to perceiving cancer as a systemic illness as well as a localized one, and more sparing procedures were developed that proved equally effective. Modern chemotherapy developed after World War II. Prominent women who died of breast cancer include Anne of Austria, the mother of Louis XIV of France; Mary Washington, mother of George, and Rachel Carson, the environmentalist. The first case- controlled study on breast cancer epidemiology was done by Janet Lane-Claypon, who published a comparative study in 1926 of 500 breast cancer cases and 500 controls of the same background and lifestyle for the British Ministry of Health. In the 1980s and 1990s, thousands of women who had successfully completed standard treatment then demanded and received high-dose bone marrow transplants, thinking this would lead to better long-term survival.

Even the Audit Commission, the independent body responsible for overseeing local government finances, admitted having £10 million deposited with Landsbanki and its subsidiary Heritable Bank. In the Netherlands, 22 local authorities had a total of €220 million deposited in Icelandic banks, with the province of North Holland being the most exposed. The complication is that both the UK and the Netherlands exclude local authorities and larger private corporations from their deposit insurance schemes, as is possible (but not obligatory) under Directive 94/19/EC, on the grounds that larger organizations should have more capacity to judge (and absorb) risk than the general public. Iceland makes a much more sparing use of this provision, so its definition of a guaranteed deposit is wider: This means that Icelandic local authorities and corporations had their deposits (not including bonds) guaranteed at 100 per cent by the Icelandic government, while British and Dutch organisations in the same situation had no cover whatsoever.
