Upward agreement and syntactic counterfeeding in Lubukusu
What are the constraints on agreement, and how does it interact with other syntactic operations? Recent studies suggest that syntactic dependencies are tier-based strictly local (TSL) over Minimalist Grammar derivation trees, a computationally restrictive model which closely fits many aspects of the formal typology (Graf 2022, Hanson 2025). Using this framework, I provide an analysis of upward complementizer agreement in Lubukusu (Diercks 2013), …
Reason and Revelation: A Response

I am mindful o…
Shall Not the Judge of All the Earth Do Justly? Theological Dilemmas Posed by the Pittsburgh and Poway Synagogue Massacres
There is an immutable framework of biblical faith, expressed in Israelite monotheism, namely, that God is both all-powerful and all-just. Such divine attributes, however, have been called into question throughout the course of Jewish history and experience, from earliest antiquity, through the annihilation of European Jewry in the twentieth century, and down to the present. The dual tragedies of the recent synagogue massacres, both in Pittsburgh …
Policy Watch: The Food Stamp Program and Welfare Reform
Major changes have been proposed for the Food Stamp Program, including replacing the program with block grants to the states, cashing out the benefits, and reducing program funding from baseline levels. This paper will explore the impacts of food stamp reform on food spending, income support, welfare reform, agriculture, and the rest of the economy. A comprehensive set of scenarios is used to examine the potential economic consequences. The analy…
