TL;DR: Given the historically contentious relationship between the police and African Americans, the current project examines the extent to which the use of excessive and lethal force by the police affects the lives of African Americans as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: Given the historically contentious relationship – including most notably the use of excessive and lethal force – between the police and African Americans, the current project examines the extent to...

TL;DR: This analysis could not determine causality, but it did indicate that forceful verbal resistance, physical resistance, and fleeing were all associated with rape avoidance, whereas nonforceful verbal resistance and no resistance were associated with being raped.
Abstract: This investigation sought to clarify which resistance strategies were associated with rape avoidance and at what cost. Data were gathered from initial and supplemental police reports about 150 sexual assault victims, ages 16 and older, who were assaulted between June 1, 1988, and May 31, 1989, in Omaha, Neb. Although this analysis could not determine causality, it did indicate that forceful verbal resistance, physical resistance, and fleeing were all associated with rape avoidance, whereas nonforceful verbal resistance and no resistance were associated with being raped. Further, women who used forceful resistance were no more likely to be injured than women who did not resist.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the role of the state in the rapid growth of the automotive industry in integrated peripheral markets of the global automotive industry and argue that the successful development of the auto industry in Slovakia has been achieved at the expense of its overwhelming dependence on foreign capital and corporate capture.
Abstract: Using the case study of Slovakia, this article considers the role of the state in the rapid growth of the automotive industry in integrated peripheral markets of the global automotive industry. Although this growth has been mainly driven by the investment strategies of automotive lead firms, the state has played an important role by accommodating the strategic needs of foreign capital through neoliberal economic policies. In addition to secondary sources, the empirical research is based on a 2010 survey of 299 Slovak-based automotive firms with a response rate of 44% and on 38 on-site firm-level interviews conducted between 2011 and 2013 and one in 2005. The analysis draws upon approaches in economic geography, international political economy and upon global value chains and global production networks perspectives to argue that the successful development of the automotive industry in Slovakia has been achieved at the expense of its overwhelming dependence on foreign capital and corporate capture. The arti...

TL;DR: A heuristic classification method by using the fuzzy linear programming (FLP) to discover the bankruptcy patterns of credit cardholders by seeking a fuzzy (satisfying) solution obtained from a fuzzy linear program is proposed.
Abstract: Behavior analysis of credit cardholders is one of the main research topics in credit card portfolio management. Usually, the cardholder's behavior, especially bankruptcy, is measured by a score of aggregate attributes that describe cardholder's spending history. In real-life practice, statistics and neural networks are the major players to calculate such a score system for prediction. Recently, various multiple linear programming-based classification methods have been promoted for analyzing credit cardholders' behaviors. As a continuation of this research direction, this paper proposes a heuristic classification method by using the fuzzy linear programming (FLP) to discover the bankruptcy patterns of credit cardholders. Instead of identifying a compromise solution for the separation of credit cardholder behaviors, this approach classifies the credit cardholder behaviors by seeking a fuzzy (satisfying) solution obtained from a fuzzy linear program.In this paper, a real-life credit database from a major US bank is used for empirical study which is compared with the results of known multiple linear programming approaches.

TL;DR: This is the first demonstration, to the authors' knowledge, that drug-loaded macrophages discharge particles to contiguous target cells for therapeutic brain enzyme delivery, and the data shown are of potential value for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders and notably, Parkinson's disease.
