Second, there's the question of whether a simple expectations-of-low-short-term rates story can explain low long-term rates.
When the Great Northern Railway built the Midland Goods Shed at London's King's Cross station in 1850, it had simple expectations of a brick structure designed to house rolling stock.
Let no one think that Jews entering their houses of prayer come before God with simple expectations of divine intervention.
If A is the acceptance rate of swaps, then a simple expectation based on this observation is τ = n/ A. In the regime we studied (n>300), A is greater than 0.2, as illustrated in Figure S4 in Additional File 1.
A simple expectation would be ~1 × 10-7.
Contrary to the simple expectation that reduction of Hsp90 by GA would increase the heritability and response to selection of SC bristle number, we found that in our inbred Canton-S stock, the selection response of offspring to increasing parental SC bristle numbers was completely abolished in the replicates raised on the Hsp90 inhibitor.
Public doubt in Mr Volcker's ability to reduce inflation meant that much of the work of disinflation had to occur mechanically, through the creation of high levels of unemployment, rather than through a simple reset of expectations.
Removing the Foo Fighters from our comfort zone and challenging the process from top to bottom, it breathed new life into the band, and set us on a journey that unquestionably exceeded any of our simple expectations.
Contrary to simple expectations our results show that an intermediate level of detection is optimal.
This suggests that the path replays were not a simple consequence of either reward expectation or place-specific firings in the location where they occurred (Gupta et al., 2010; Carr et al., 2011).
Sometimes that price is measured in a temporary decline in their literary reputation (other poets find fame hard to forgive), but more often it's a simple matter of becoming papered over with expectations.
