We prove that the classical theory with a discrete time (chronon) is a par-ticular case of a more general theory in which spinning particles are associ-ated with generalized Lagrangians containing time-derivatives of any order (a theory that has been called “Non-Newtonian Mechanics”). As a

A review of the blind analysis technique, as used in particle physics measurements, is presented. The history of blind analyses in physics is briefly discussed. Next the dangers of experimenter’s bias and the advantages of a blind analysis are described. Three distinct kinds of blind analysis
