Tuberculosis of the tonsils is by no means a common condition, Mullin (1923), for example, in analysing 400 tonsillectomies found only 4.25 per cent cases of tuberculous tonsils. The present study is based on 2,477 tonsillectomies in the Madras General Hospital. This series covers a period of five years from January 1928 to December 1932. We, however, feel that this investigation is incomplete ...

Whether human beings have free will has been a philosophical question for centuries. The debate about free will has recently entered the public arena through mass media and newspaper articles commenting on scientific findings that leave little to no room for free will. Previous research has shown that encouraging such a deterministic perspective influences behavior, namely by promoting cursory ...

although it is not often thought of, elderly abuse is a frequently occurring phenomenon. especially when an older patient dies, maltreatment is low on the list of possible causes of death. there are, however, signs that may point in the direction of abuse. these can either be on the patient’s body, in the surroundings, or within the story as to how the patient died. attention should be paid to ...

Deliberate injection of faults into cryptographic devices is an effective cryptanalysis technique against symmetric and asymmetric encryption algorithms. To protect cryptographic implementations (e.g. of the recent AES which will be our running example) against these attacks, a number of innovative countermeasures have been proposed, usually based on the use of space and time redundancies (e.g....

It is not obvious that we should welcome the influence of moods. On one familiar conception, a mood offers a view of reality that is at best distorted and at worst wholly subjective. However, this conception of moods is not universal. For example, Stephen Mulhall has drawn on the work of Cavell and Heidegger to argue for a view of moods as epistemically valuable states, embodying knowledge of t...

In everyday work environments, systems for work evolve constantly in response to changing environments, the need to overcome technical and social obstacles, or out of the desire by individuals to try something new or satisfy their curiosity. This proposal briefly reviews some emergent design activities, namely patchwork prototyping and a recent trend in academic computing for adopting and modif...

In this paper, I argue that not only PPs and adverbs can act as predicates of the event argument of the verb, but certain NPs and certain clauses can, as well. I will give syntactic and semantic arguments that NPs that are cognate objects and clauses of (at least some) nonbridge verbs are optional predicates of the event argument of the verb. With respect to clauses, I will argue that for indep...
