We provide a counterexample to Theorem 1 (A) in Dhillon [3]. 1 Dhillon’s Multi-Profile Version of Harsanyi’s Theorem on Utilitarianism In an important paper, Amrita Dhillon [3] provided a multi-profile version of Harsanyi’s [5] single-profile theorem on utilitarianism. Like Harsanyi did, she assumed that the social alternatives are lotteries. Individuals’ preferences satisfy the von Neumann-Mor...

This study examines the relationship between preschool teachers’ gender role traditionality (as measured by the Attitudes Towards Women questionnaire) and how stereotypically teachers rate toys as being appropriate for boys and girls. The female teachers with experience with three to five-year-old children rated fifteen toys on how appropriate they are for boys and girls both from a personal po...

Fifty-six retail stores representing 15 retail chains and 14 foodservice facilities in eight U.S. cities were sampled to determine the tenderness of beef steaks at retail and foodservice levels based on Warner-Bratzler shear (WBS) values and consumer evaluation panels. Retail consumer panels were conducted at five universities. Each retail and foodservice steak was evaluated using 10-point scal...

The FASTA algorithm is a heuristic method for string comparison. It was developed by Lipman and Pearson in 1985 [6] and further improved in 1988 [7]. FASTA compares a query string against a single text string. When searching the whole database for matches to a given query, we compare the query using the FASTA algorithm to every string in the database. When looking for an alignment, we might exp...

In a case of first impression in the state of New York, the highest state court decided that a prior written agreement between progenitors of frozen embryos regarding the disposition of their ?pre-zygotes? in the event of divorce is binding. By copying the general result arrived at by the Tennessee Supreme Court in Davis v. Davis in 1992, the New York court magnified the weight of authority in ...

In this paper we describe an experiment in which MANIFOLD is used to coordinate the interprocess communication in a parallelized proposition solver. MANIFOLD is very well suited for applications involving dynamic process creation and dynamically changing (ir)regular communication patterns among sets of independent concurrent cooperating processes. The idea in this case study is simple. The prop...

For the majority of data mining applications, there are no models of data which would facilitate the tasks of comparing records of time series, thus leaving one with ‘noise’ as the only description. We propose a generic approach to comparing noise time series using the largest deviations from consistent statistical behaviour. For this purpose we use a powerful framework based on wavelet decompo...
