In response to: Dunning J. How about an honorable mention for cervical and thoracic thrust manipulation? A passing mention would be more appropriate

Horizon Mass Theorem Honorable Mention Gravity Research Foundation 2005

A new theorem for black holes is found. It is called the horizon mass theorem. The horizon mass is the mass which cannot escape from the horizon of a black hole. For all black holes: neutral, charged or rotating, the horizon mass is always twice the irreducible mass observed at infinity. Previous theorems on black holes are: 1. the singularity theorem, 2. the area theorem, 3. the uniqueness the...

Joint Mention Extraction and Classification with Mention Hypergraphs

We present a novel model for the task of joint mention extraction and classification. Unlike existing approaches, our model is able to effectively capture overlapping mentions with unbounded lengths. The model is highly scalable, with a time complexity that is linear in the number of words in the input sentence and linear in the number of possible mention classes. Our model can be extended to a...

A Forensic Analysis of a Distributed Two-Stage Web-Based Spam Attack (Awarded Honorable Mention!)

Open mail relays have long been vilified as one of the key vectors for spam, and today – thanks to education and the blocking efforts of open relay databases (ORDBs) – relatively few open relays remain to serve spammers. Yet a critical and widespread vulnerability remains in an as-yet unaddressed arena: web-based email forms. This paper describes the effects of a distributed proxy attack on a v...

Thoracic spine thrust manipulation versus cervical spine thrust manipulation in patients with acute neck pain: a randomized clinical trial.

STUDY DESIGN Randomized clinical trial. OBJECTIVE To determine if patients who met the clinical prediction rule (CPR) criteria for the success of thoracic spine thrust joint manipulation (TJM) for the treatment of neck pain would have a different outcome if they were treated with a cervical spine TJM. BACKGROUND A CPR had been proposed to identify patients with neck pain who would likely re...
