Many competent speakers initially judge that (i) is true and (ii) is false, though they know that (iii) is true. (i) Superman leaps more tall buildings than Clark Kent. (ii) Superman leaps more tall buildings than Superman. (iii) Superman is identical with Clark Kent. Semantic explanations of these intuitions say that (i) and (ii) really can differ in truthvalue. Pragmatic explanations deny thi...

In four patients with WPW syndrome atrial and ventricular premature beats were induced and the changes in form of the ventricular and atrial complexes were studied. Results indicate that, depending upon the timing of the premature atrial beat and the state of refractoriness of the His and Kent bundles, excitation of the ventricles occurs predominantly through the atrioventricular nodal system, ...

The modelling of data on a spherical surface requires the consideration of directional probability distributions. To model asymmetrically distributed data on a three-dimensional sphere, Kent distributions are often used. The moment estimates of the parameters are typically used in modelling tasks involving Kent distributions. However, these lack a rigorous statistical treatment. The focus of th...

Compared to the mainland, boreal oceanic islands would be expected to have a depauperate lichen biota because of their isolation, small area, exposure to salt spray and structurally simple habitats. We surveyed the macrolichens (non-crustose lichens) and quantified habitat associations on Kent Island, an 80-hectare island that lies at the mouth of the Bay of Fundy, New Brunswick, Canada. A tota...
