One of the most enigmatic of the miracles of Jesus is the cursing of the barren fig tree (Mark 11:12-14, 20-25). Jesus' action has led commentators to regard it as secondary or legendary probably because of Mark's note that it was not a season of figs (v 13). The accounts of Matthew and Mark differ considerably in regard to the sequence of events s...

This is a short story by Leanne Phillips inspired by the theme women and notions of service.

For half a century, biologists considered trees as particularly apparent to their enemies. But why then do some trees escape enemies in time and burst buds too early or late for their herbivores, causing phenological mismatch? We hypothesize that herbivore phenologies mismatch on trees that are unapparent in time: whose buds burst discreetly (slowl...

It is likely that the Higgs potential of the Standard Model is unstable, turning negative at ϕ<Λ∼1010 GeV. Here we consider whether it is possible to have Higgs inflation on the positive stable region of the potential at ϕ<Λ. To do this we add a nonminimally coupled induced gravity sector with scalar χ to the Standard Model. For an appropriate form...
