But seismologists did correctly warn that after the first quake, southern California residents should expect more ground shaking.

Homan did correctly note that the "vast majority" of children currently in U.S. custody crossed the border without family members.

So not only is the tech able to see what a salesperson did correctly, but also where they deviated from the playbook.

In The America We Deserve, Trump did correctly infer that a big attack was coming — and acknowledged that this idea was also shared among experts.

Keynes did correctly predict that France and the Netherlands would eventually abandon the gold standard in the 1930s, leading to declines in the franc and guilder.

The officer, who identified himself by rank and first name only, did correctly name other places I had visited, including some I had not mentioned on my Twitter feed.

DeGeneres recalls the last time Portman was on her show, she was pregnant with her son Aleph — and the host made a prediction at the time that missed the mark (although she did correctly predict that Portman would win the Best Actress Oscar for her role in Black Swan).

Watson, at the French Open there, complained about on-course security and cultural disorientation, then struggled — truly struggled — to come up with some of the names of the Paris landmarks he had just visited, including the Arc de Triomphe and the Louvre (He did correctly name the Eiffel Tower after initially referring to it as "that big tower").

Their early message wafers had text like "Married in white, you have chosen right," and "Married in satin, love will not be lasting," and were mostly given out at weddings, so I wouldn't exactly call the Chase brothers a pair of feminist allies, but they did correctly latch on to the idea that romance is big money.

However, Bradley did correctly infer that the effect was due to relative velocities.

Although he failed to identify the true source of disease transmission, (i.e., the Anopheles mosquito),Linnaeus's thesis on the ague (malaria), 2008, Uppsala University. he did correctly predict that Artemisia annua (wormwood) would become a source of antimalarial medications. Within two weeks he had completed his oral and practical examinations and was awarded a doctoral degree.

The Pinax theatri botanici (English, Illustrated exposition of plants) is a landmark of botanical history, describing some 6,000 species and classifying them. The classification system was not particularly innovative, using traditional groups such as "trees", "shrubs", and "herbs", and using other characteristics such as utilization, for instance grouping spices into the Aromata. He did correctly group grasses, legumes, and several others. His most important contribution is in the description of genera and species.

His work on celiac disease, which he called "intestinal infantilism", led to the eponym Gee-Herter disease. His important contribution was to highlight the retarded growth of affected children. Herter's theory as to the cause – that it was due to overgrowth and persistence of gram-positive bacterial flora normally belonging to the nursling period – failed to gain acceptance. However, he did correctly identify that any "attempt to encourage growth by the use of increased amounts of carbohydrates" led to relapse.

Nonetheless, Zwicky did correctly conclude from his calculation that the bulk of the matter was dark. Further indications the mass-to-light ratio was not unity came from measurements of galaxy rotation curves. In 1939, Horace W. Babcock reported the rotation curve for the Andromeda nebula (known now as the Andromeda Galaxy), which suggested the mass-to-luminosity ratio increases radially. He attributed it to either light absorption within the galaxy or modified dynamics in the outer portions of the spiral and not to the missing matter he had uncovered.

Whilst the classification system Gaspard Bauhin used was not particularly innovative, using traditional groups such as "trees", "shrubs", and "herbs", and for instance grouping spices into the Aromata, he did correctly group grasses and legumes. It is most likely that this is the work which led Carl Linnaeus (inspiration for the Linnean Society) in deference to the Bauhin brothers 200 years earlier to honour Casper and his brother Johann by naming the genus Bauhinia after them in his 1753 Species Plantarum whose prime importance is perhaps that it is the primary starting point of plant nomenclature as it exists today.

Britain was at the time vastly expanding her sphere of influence in the Far East and was striving to obtain the rest of Hong Kong up to the Shenzhen River. Li saw this chance as a method to develop Sham Shui Po as another probable trading hub. Although Li did correctly prophetize the village's prosperity following to the annexation of the New Territories in 1898, Li's proposal was eventually rejected by the Central Government in favor of the budget being allocated to the much anticipated Canton–Hankow railway. The British, however, caught up with this proposal and the idea of a railway similar to this was first considered with much interest.

At the time of writing, there was already a widespread expectation of a new war breaking out in Europe in the near future, and Heinlein followed this assumption. However, in the book's timeline the US stays out of the war, and it ends due to Germany's economic collapse rather than its military defeat (similar to the scenario given in H. G. Wells' The Shape of Things to Come, four years before). Heinlein did correctly predict that Adolf Hitler would end up committing suicide, once his schemes of conquest collapsed. The timeline depicted in the book does not include a war between the US and Japan.

1862-1943, Obituary Notices of Fellows of the Royal Society (1944). The proof in question was the (non- constructive) existence of a finite basis for invariants. It is not clear if Gordan really said this since the earliest reference to it is 25 years after the events and after his death, and nor is it clear whether the quote was intended as criticism, or praise, or a subtle joke. Gordan himself encouraged Hilbert and used Hilbert's results and methods, and the widespread story that he opposed Hilbert's work on invariant theory is a myth (though he did correctly point out in a referee's report that some of the reasoning in Hilbert's paper was incomplete).

Kane went up the Cowlitz River and stayed for a week among the tribes living there in the vicinity of Mount Saint Helens before continuing on horseback to Nisqually (today Tacoma) and then by canoe again to Fort Victoria. Mount St. Helens erupting at night by Kane after his 1847 visit to the area His painting of Mount St. Helens in eruption at night in 1847 which is housed in the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto was the only known image of an active Cascade volcano until the eruption of Lassen Peak in California in 1914. Although the scene was somewhat fictionalized, it did correctly show the active vent on the side of the volcano rather that the summit. He stayed for two months in that area, traveling and sketching among the Native Americans on Vancouver Island and around the Juan de Fuca Strait and the Strait of Georgia.
