TL;DR: Comparisons with multi-state samples indicate that the continent-wide population of the Virginia opossum is very similar in terms of osteological dimension, and the combination of low variation index and nonsignificant difference between the sexes in mandibular tooth row length suggests that this measure may be useful for distinguishing fossil opossums species.
Abstract: We analyzed intraspecific and sexually dimorphic osteological varia- tion within the Baldwin County, GA, population of Didelphis virginiana (Virginia opossum). Where possible, 20 measurements (11 cranial/mandibular and 9 post- cranial) were obtained from each of 59 road-killed adult opossums (47 males, 12 females). Although range overlaps exist between the sexes for all measurements, males are significantly larger (P ≤ 0.05) for the following characteristics: greatest length of skull, condylobasal length, basal length, postpalatal length, nasal length, bicanine width, zygomatic breadth, length of mandible, scapula length, humerus length, radius length, femur length, and fibula length. Males exhibit significantly less (P ≤ 0.05) variation in mandibular tooth row length and significantly greater (P ≤ 0.05) variation in scapula length and fibula length. Intraspecific variation ranges from 14-54% for cranial/mandibular and 29-73% for postcranial measure- ments. Sexual dimorphism is most pronounced in cranial/mandibular dimensions. Comparisons with multi-state samples indicate that the continent-wide population of the Virginia opossum is very similar in terms of osteological dimension. The combination of low variation index and nonsignificant difference between the sexes in mandibular tooth row length suggests that this measure may be useful for distinguishing fossil opossum species.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate how to design better awareness and memory of product information using mobile coupon campaigns among those who do not redeem the coupons, and demonstrate that the memory has no effect on purchase intentions or future purchases.
Abstract: Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how to design better awareness and memory of product information using mobile coupon campaigns among those who do not redeem the coupons.Design/methodology/approach – The research involves two field experiments with a Mid Western mobile marketing firm where differently designed coupons were sent out to men and women customers of a fast food chain, and non‐redeemers filled out a survey revealing how much they remembered. The research also connected their subsequent purchases a week later. The data were analyzed using ANOVAs.Findings – Factual ad claims create better recognition than descriptive ad claims in general, but among older working people when ad is viewed in leisure situations men better remember descriptive appeals, and women factual appeals. Also the memory has no effect on purchase intentions or future purchases. In contrast, among younger students, men remember factual ad claims better than descriptive, like women, and their memory has sign...

TL;DR: Ben-Porath as mentioned in this paper presents Citizenship Under Fire: Democratic Education in Times of Conflict, a collection of observations about the U.S. war on terrorism and its effect on education for democracy.
Abstract: Citizenship Under Fire: Democratic Education in Times of Conflict. By Sigal R. Ben-Porath. Princeton: Princeton University Press, 2006. 174p. $32.95. In this volume, Sigal R. Ben-Porath brings several important and useful perspectives to bear on civic education. Her observations are prompted by the special situation created by the U.S. war on terrorism, as well as the unique perspective she is able to offer due to her Israeli background. Both the American and Middle East conflicts are open-ended and often muddled, so that, as Ben-Porath credibly notes, her unique experience with both situations lends her an advantage as she draws lessons for education for citizenship in the modern age. Citizenship Under Fire, then, offers a fresh approach to the all-important question of education for democracy.

TL;DR: This article pointed out a few of the problems with Kindt's work, and with gambling research in general, so that research can advance, instead of digressing, as it has with the publication of the special issue of MDE.
Abstract: For many readers, the casino gambling issue of Managerial and Decision Economics1 will be their first exposure to economic research on casino gambling. Based solely on a reading of the MDE issue, one might get the impression there is overwhelming evidence that legal casino gambling is ‘bad.’ But readers should be skeptical of what they read, as there is no such consensus in the literature. Indeed, the literature is fraught with methodological problems and inconsistencies. Professor Kindt's article (2001), in particular,2 exemplifies some of the problems that have been plaguing gambling research since the mid-1990s. Ordinarily, a reaction to an article like Kindt's would be unwarranted, since many of his arguments are supported only by newspaper articles. However, it is perhaps worthwhile to point out a few of the problems with Kindt's work, and with gambling research in general, so that research can advance, instead of digressing, as it has with the publication of the special issue of MDE. My comments focus on three issues in Kindt's paper. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

TL;DR: In this article, the concept of $n$-Lie-isoclinism on non-Lie Leibniz algebras was introduced, and several characterizations of the classes of Leibras with $n-Lie isoclinic properties were provided.
Abstract: In this paper we introduce the concept of $n$-Lie-isoclinism on non-Lie Leibniz algebras. Among the results obtained, we provide several characterizations of $n$-Lie-isoclinic classes of Leibniz algebras. Also, we provide a characterization of $n$-Lie-stem Leibniz algebras, and prove that every $n$-Lie-isoclinic class of Leibniz algebras contains a $n$-Lie-stem Leibniz algebra.
