Mpemba Effect- the Effect of Time [PDF]
This paper concludes that " time is one of the properties of energy, which is the flow rate of energy from object to space or from space to object. When energy flows from object to space, the time on an object is proportional to the energy density inside the object and inversely proportional to the energy density of the space in which the object is ...

The “doctrine of double effect” has a pleasing ring to it. It is regarded by some as the cornerstone of any sound approach to end-of-life issues and by others as religious mumbo jumbo. Discussions about “the doctrine” often generate more heat than light. They are often conducted at cross-purposes and laced with footnotes from Leviticus.

Effectiveness of cost-effectiveness [PDF]
In their economic modelling, Barret & Byford[1][1] postulate that the intervention group will have a reoffending rate of 3% v . 5% in the non-intervention group, but give no evidence of this being the correct figure or even the justification for this being a reasonable estimate.

The Effects of Effects on Constructivism
Abstract It is commonly understood that Countable Choice holds constructively due to the underlying computational nature of constructivism. However, in this paper we demonstrate that invoking different notions of computation result in radically different behaviors regarding Countable Choice.

EFFECTIVE INTERACTIONS ARE EFFECTIVE INTERACTIONS [PDF]
The subject of effective interactions is introduced and applications in both quantum mechanics and quantum field theory are presented. In particular the use of chiral perturbation theory as an effective low energy description of QCD is developed and it is argued that such methods rally are effective in both the meson and baryonic sectors.

When the placebo effect is not an effect [PDF]
In this issue of the journal, Rosen et al. report the results of a survey of surgeons regarding placebo effects.1 In particular, they show that surgeons consider “non-specific” effects (including a...

Effectiveness Is the Key to Cost-Effectiveness [PDF]
Health care spending has risen faster than the rest of the United States economy for the past several decades, and is now swamping federal and state government budgets. The rising cost of health care has important consequences: either spending on other programs (eg, education, public safety, and infrastructure) must be reduced, or taxes must rise, or ...

Effects as capabilities: effect handlers and lightweight effect polymorphism [PDF]
Effect handlers have recently gained popularity amongst programming language researchers. Existing type- and effect systems for effect handlers are often complicated and potentially hinder a wide-spread adoption. We present the language Effekt with the goal to close the gap between research languages with effect handlers and ...

How effective is the effective potential?
Motivated by bubble nucleation in first order phase transitions, we question the validity of the effective potential for inhomogeneous configurations. In an attempt to get some insight into the importance of derivative terms, we analyze a simple model, a kink in (1+1) dimensions and zero temperature.

Shape Effect of Magnetoresistance Effect.
The magnetoresistance of Ni-Co-Fe ternary alloy thin films, both circular and rectangular with varying widths, was studied. Sample resistivity was measured using a four-point probe. Using the method of images, the true value of ? av can be obtained for each film, but that of ??
