Which, in the collective judgement of these worthies, is a thing that should cause the courts, when haling news gatherers before the bar of justice, to put aside the statutes forbidding disclosure of secrets of state and to renounce jailing for contempt, that artful device for the loosening of tongues. Put plainly, these scriveners and their superordinates argue, often successfully, that they should be to a degree above the law, in order to preserve and protect the sources of information they employ in unearthing and making known to the public tidings of import and consequencea mission they proclaim to be the sine qua non of the health of our democratic order. The democratic theory has it, after all, that the people decide all things that are of import and consequence, and uninformed decisions are not, it may reasonably be argued, sound decisions.

Extractions: The Documentary Hypothesis: Evidence Who Wrote the Bible? These pages were prepared by students: Jesse Floren, Maureen McDonnell, and Nathan Romney "People have been reading the Bible for nearly two thousand years. They have taken it literally, figuratively, or symbolically. They have regarded it as divinely dictated, revealed, or inspired, or as a human creation. They have acquired more copies of it than any other book. People read it, study it, admire it, disdain it, write about it, argue about it, and love it. People have lived by it and died for it. And we do not know who wrote it."-Richard Elliot Friedman- Scholars, investigators, and even priests have all been working on this mystery of who wrote the bible for thousands of years. It began with individuals raising questions about problems existing within the text. It progressed like a detective story with investigators continually uncovering clues about the bible's origin. In the first stage , investigators accepted the tradition that Moses wrote the first five books of the bible, but, conceded that a few lines may have been inserted here or there. In the second stage , investigators suggested that a few editors may have changed portions of the text, but Moses was still the author. Finally, in the seventeenth century, the

http://www.aber.ac.uk/media/Documents/short/whorf.html

Extractions: Greek Translation now available Within linguistic theory, two extreme positions concerning the relationship between language and thought are commonly referred to as 'mould theories and 'cloak theories'. Mould theories represent language as 'a mould in terms of which thought categories are cast' (Bruner et al. 1956, p. 11). Cloak theories represent the view that 'language is a cloak conforming to the customary categories of thought of its speakers' (ibid.). The doctrine that language is the 'dress of thought' was fundamental in Neo-Classical literary theory (Abrams 1953, p. 290), but was rejected by the Romantics (ibid.; Stone 1967, Ch. 5). There is also a related view (held by behaviourists, for instance) that language and thought are identical . According to this stance thinking is entirely linguistic: there is no 'non-verbal thought', no 'translation' at all from thought to language. In this sense, thought is seen as completely determined by language. The Sapir-Whorf theory, named after the American linguists Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf, is a

Extractions: Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Professor Part of International Research Group Refuting Popular Theory TROY, N.Y - In 1996, marine geologists William Ryan and Walter Pitman published a scientifically popular hypothesis, titled Noah's Flood Hypothesis. The researchers presented evidence of a bursting flood about 7,500 years ago in what is now the Black Sea. This, some say, supports the biblical story of Noah and the flood. But, such a forceful flood could not have taken place, says Jun Abrajano, professor of earth and environmental sciences at Rensselaer. He is part of an international team of scientists who refute the so-called Noah's Flood Hypothesis. Abrajano cites evidence of a much more gradual rising of the Black Sea that began to occur 10,000 years ago and continued for 2,000 years. Click here for full size map of the area.

Extractions: The Riemann Hypothesis Riemann's Hypothesis was one of the 23 problems - milestones that David Hilbert suggested in 1900, at the 2nd International Conference on Mathematics in Paris, that they should define research in mathematics for the new century (and indeed, it is not an exaggeration to say that modern mathematics largely come from the attempts to solve these 23 problems). It is the most famous open question today, especially after the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem The Riemann zeta function is of central importance in the study of prime numbers. In its first form introduced by Euler, it is a function of a real variable x: This series converges for every x > 1 (for x=1 it is the non-corvergent harmonic series). Euler showed that this function can also be expressed as an infinite product which involves all prime numbers p n , n=1, Riemann studied this function extensively and extended its definition to take complex arguments z. So the function bears his name. Of particular interest are the roots of

Extractions: Atlantis: New Hypothesis FROM THE AUTHOR This is the fourth version of my paper. The basic distinction of this version from the previous one, written over a year ago, consists in that I attempted to make the paleogeographic aspect of the hypothesis more profoundly elaborated. The first version was sent as a brochure "Returning to the Enigma of Plato's Atlantis" to Ancient History Departments of some Universities and to Geographical Societies of a number of countries in June 1995. The magazine version of it came out in the May 1996 issue of "Vokrug Sveta" ("Around the World", Magazine of Travels, Adventures and SF) - a kind of Russian "National Geographic". The second one was published in some newsgroups and mailing lists in February - March 1996. In the third version published in the Internet in May-June of the same year, I did my best to provide answers to most of the questions I was asked after the previous publications. As this text offered to your attention has been amended and added to many times, and some sections were revised at different times, it may be somewhat eclectic. Some prolixity of the introduction in this version, as well as in the previous ones, and the slightly simplified style of setting forth some theses, are due to the fact that the paper was originally meant not only for experts on the issue, but also for those who are not familiar in detail with a whole range of issues connected with the subject.
Investor Home - The Efficient Market Hypothesis
The Efficient Market hypothesis The Random Walk Theory. The implicationsof the efficient market hypothesis are truly profound.
http://www.investorhome.com/emh.htm

Extractions: An issue that is the subject of intense debate among academics and financial professionals is the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH). The Efficient Market Hypothesis states that at any given time, security prices fully reflect all available information. The implications of the efficient market hypothesis are truly profound. Most individuals that buy and sell securities (stocks in particular), do so under the assumption that the securities they are buying are worth more than the price that they are paying, while securities that they are selling are worth less than the selling price. But if markets are efficient and current prices fully reflect all information, then buying and selling securities in an attempt to outperform the market will effectively be a game of chance rather than skill. The Efficient Market Hypothesis evolved in the 1960s from the Ph.D. dissertation of Eugene Fama (link courtesy of Ibbotson Associates ). Fama persuasively made the argument that in an active market that includes many well-informed and intelligent investors, securities will be appropriately priced and reflect all available information. If a market is efficient, no information or analysis can be expected to result in outperformance of an appropriate benchmark "An 'efficient' market is defined as a market where there are large numbers of rational, profit-maximizers actively competing, with each trying to predict future market values of individual securities, and where important current information is almost freely available to all participants. In an efficient market, competition among the many intelligent participants leads to a situation where, at any point in time, actual prices of individual securities already reflect the effects of information based both on events that have already occurred and on events which, as of now, the market expects to take place in the future. In other words, in an efficient market at any point in time the actual price of a security will be a good estimate of its intrinsic value."

http://davidmlane.com/hyperstat/A29337.html

Extractions: The null hypothesis is an hypothesis about a population parameter. The purpose of hypothesis testing is to test the viability of the null hypothesis in the light of experimental data. Depending on the data, the null hypothesis either will or will not be rejected as a viable possibility. and the null hypothesis is that the parameter equals zero. The null hypothesis is often the reverse of what the experimenter actually believes; it is put forward to allow the data to contradict it. In the experiment on the effect of alcohol, the experimenter probably expects alcohol to have a harmful effect. If the experimental data show a sufficiently large effect of alcohol, then the null hypothesis that alcohol has no effect can be rejected.

Extractions: Classical QSAR strategy necessarily limits relationships to a defined structural series or class. The real challenge is to go beyond known QSAR methodology and handle relationships in 3D space , i.e., relate structures from differing classes to activity in a quantitative way by means of their actual shapes and properties. Work that was begun in 1986 culminated in the discovery and development of a novel 3D-QSAR methodology, the Hypothetical Active Site Lattice (HASL). HASL modeling is accomplished through the intermediate conversion of a superposed set of molecules to a set of regularly-spaced points (lattice) defined by Cartesian coordinates (x,y,z) and atom type. The resulting lattice is then related to individual molecular binding activity by endowing each lattice point with a partial binding value so that the sum of any set of points belonging to a particular molecule results in the original binding value for that molecule. The binding activity of a new molecule is predicted through the summation of partial binding values associated with lattice points correspondng to the new molecule.

The Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis
1999 overview of the history and development of the theories of linguistic determinism and linguistic relativity. By Rebecca Ash.
http://www.angelfire.com/journal/worldtour99/sapirwhorf.html

Extractions: The Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis From George Orwell's The Sapir-Whorf hypothesis theorizes that thoughts and behavior are determined (or are at least partially influenced) by language. If true in its strongest sense, the sinister possibility of a culture controlled by Newspeak or some other language is not just science fiction. Since its inception in the 1920s and 1930s, the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis has caused controversy and spawned research in a variety of disciplines including linguistics, psychology, philosophy, anthropology, and education. To this day it has not been completely disputed or defended, but has continued to intrigue researchers around the world. Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf brought attention to the relationship between language, thought, and culture. Neither of them formally wrote the hypothesis nor supported it with empirical evidence, but through a thorough study of their writings about linguistics, researchers have found two main ideas. First, a theory of linguistic determinism that states that the language you speak determines the way that you will interpret the world around you. Second, a weaker theory of linguistic relativism that states that language merely influences your thoughts about the real world.

http://ccat.sas.upenn.edu/rs/2/Judaism/jepd.html

Extractions: Literary analysis shows that the Pentateuch was not written by one person. Multiple strands of tradition were woven together to produce the Torah. The view that is persuasive to most of the critical scholars of the Pentateuch is called the Documentary Hypothesis, or the Graf-Wellhausen Hypothesis, after the names of the 19th-century scholars who put it in its classic form. Briefly stated, the Documentary Hypothesis sees the Torah as having been composed by a series of editors out of four major strands of literary traditions. These traditions are known as J, E, D, and P. We can diagram their relationships as follows. J (the Jahwist or Jerusalem source) uses the Tetragrammaton as God's name. This source's interests indicate it was active in the southern Kingdom of Judah in the time of the divided Kingdom. J is responsible for most of Genesis. E (the Elohist or Ephraimitic source) uses Elohim ("God") for the divine name until Exodus 3-6, where the Tetragrammaton is revealed to Moses and to Israel. This source seems to have lived in the northern Kingdom of Israel during the divided Kingdom. E wrote the Aqedah story and other parts of Genesis, and much of Exodus and Numbers. J and E were joined fairly early, apparently after the fall of the Northern Kingdom in 722 BCE. It is often difficult to separate J and E stories that have merged.

An early version of this article was published in MC2, the journal of the Canadian Mensa society. I don't recall the exact issue, probably late 1995 or early 1996.

Harvey, VE1BLL. It has been postulated that all humans share a single common mother. This is called the Eve Hypothesis. The evidence is based upon the genetic analysis of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA); a form of DNA which follows only the maternal line. The Eve Hypothesis has generated a great deal of discussion and controversy. There are still many divergent opinions regarding this "contentious" issue. Most of this debate can now be seen to be irrelevant. In the following article I will prove that the Eve Hypothesis is not only true, it is clearly inevitable. The "Inevitable Eve" hypothesis follows directly from two very simple observations:
