The notion ‘preverb’ is a traditional descriptive notion in Indo-European linguistics. It refers to morphemes that appear in front of a verb, and which form a close semantic unit with that verb. In many cases, the morpheme that functions as a preverb can also function without a preverbal context, often as an adverb or an adposition. Most linguists use the notion ‘preverb’ as a cover term for pr...

[1] In two previous articles (Burns 2000, 2002) I have explored the topic and some of the relevant literature on homoeroticism in the Hebrew Bible, the ancient Near East and the Judeo-Christian traditions. Since then a few more studies have revisited the subject, notably those of Ackerman and Jennings. It is worthwhile to consider them, to assess their contribution to the ongoing debate and to ...

We experimentally study the effect of alternative campaign finance systems – as characterized by different information structure about donors – on donations, election outcomes, political candidates' policy choices, and welfare. Three alternative campaign finance systems are considered: a full anonymity (FA) system in which neither the politicians nor the voters are informed about the donors' id...

A novel gene that is involved in regulating flower initiation and development has been identified in Arabidopsis. This gene has been designated UNUSUAL FLORAL ORGANS (UFO), with five corresponding nuclear recessive alleles designated ufo[middot]1 to ufo[middot]5. Under short day-length conditions, ufo homozygotes generate more coflorescences than do the wild type, and coflorescences often appea...

Examiner: Mark Ackerman 1. Briefly (max 1.5 pages), describe the physical layout and its interaction with the social organization and social dynamics of the Garden. 2. According to the shared media workspace literature, as well as Whyte and Goffman, what are likely outcomes of the introduction of a shared media space into any physical space? The section should consist of a review of the literat...

This paper presents the results of a lateral control strategy that has been applied to the problem of steering an autonomous vehicle using vision. The lateral control law has been designed for any kind of car-like vehicle presenting the Ackerman kinematic model, accounting for the vehicle velocity as a crucial parameter for adapting the steering control response. This makes the control strategy...
