In this paper, 1 we discuss a new approach to the analysis of the verb second phenomenon in German. The analysis builds on empirical generalizations previously studied in the GB framework. It accounts for the movement of nite verbs without lexical rules, traces or a feature inv(erted), and it eliminates the Head-Filler-Schema for unbounded dependencies. We show that a lexical theory of the elem...

This chapter will motivate why it is useful to consider the topic of derivations and fi ltering in more detail. We will argue against the popular belief that the minimalist program and optimality theory are incompatible theories in that the former places the explanatory burden on the generative device (the computational system CHL) whereas the latter places it on the fi ltering device (the OT e...

the authors of this article aim to compare character types in persian oral folktales and hans christian andersen’s fairytales. for a better clarification of this topic, the authors address issues such as morality, character’s will, and the portrayal of women in these stories. this paper comes to the following conclusions: first, both the content and the characters in hans christian andersen’s t...

To enhance the timeliness of medical evaluation for cholera-like illness during the 2011 cholera outbreak in Hispaniola, printed Travel Health Alert Notices (T-HANs) were distributed to travelers from Haiti to the United States. Evaluation of the T-HANs’ influence on travelers’ health care–seeking behavior suggested T-HANs might positively influence health care–seeking behavior.

The present study aimed to determine the concentrations of several disinfection byproducts (DBPs), including trihalomethanes (THMs), haloacetic acids (HAAs), and haloacetonitriles (HANs), in the public and private swimming pools in Sanandaj, Iran (n=16). Correlations between DBP levels with water quality parameters (free chlorine, pH, total organic carbon, temperature, number of swimme...

Hans Thoenen: 1928–2012 Hans Thoenen passed away on June 23, 2012, a fewmonths after being diagnosed with lung cancer. He left us grateful for what he had been able to accomplish in his life as scientist, but he was neither exuberant nor proud. Hans remained extraordinarily modest about his achievements—he felt far more comfortable by understating his contributions and never liked receiving com...

The famous theoretical biologist Hans Meinhardt died on 11 February 2016 in Tübingen. Meinhardt is well known for mathematical models of biological pattern formation, which he applied to a wide range of problems in developmental biology such as body axis formation, segmentation, limb patterning, regeneration, phyllotaxis and surface patterns — most famously the color patterns on seashells. Hans...

Given my current state of knowledge, and a desirable state of knowledge, how do I get from one to the other? It is possible in principle to reach the desirable state of knowledge, i.e., does it make sense at all to start trying to obtain the desirable state? If I know it is impossible to obtain, there is no use trying. But even if I know that it is possible in principle, is there a way to appro...
