The Odd Couple : Quasars and Black Holes A cosmic detective story Ellsworth Kelly : Volume I Cataloguing

B holes are among the strangest predictions of Einstein’s general theory of relativity: regions of spacetime in which gravity is so strong that nothing—not even light—can escape. More precisely, a black hole is a singularity in spacetime surrounded by an event horizon, a surface that acts as a perfect one-way membrane: matter and radiation can enter the event horizon, but, once inside, can neve...

The Paterson-kelly Syndrome.

Dysphagia localized to the post-cricoid region occurring mainly in middle-aged women was first fully described in the papers of Paterson (1919) and Kelly (1919). Kelly noted an association with anaemia, superficial glossitis, and angular stomatitis, while Paterson remarked on " the not infrequent supervention of malignant disease at the mouth of the gullet." Vinson (1922) observed the developme...

Tom Kelly final version

The United States and Canada are two countries that share many similarities as those in Europe. However, while geographic proximity, similar economic structure and shared histories are what some argue led European countries to converge upon a common method of financing health care post-WWII, the same variables have not produced this between the United States and Canada. This is puzzling, becaus...

Generalizing the Kelly strategy

A recent draft by Victor Haghani and Richard Dewey [1] describes an experiment where participants were given initial wealth, a coin of known bias, and could bet a (variable) proportion of their in-game wealth on a sequence of flips of this coin. Assuming log utility and uncapped reward, the optimal strategy is to bet as per the Kelly strategy. Interestingly, the participants in general did not ...
