Riddling the Family Firm
To man such as Wilkie Collins who had inhabited both the official and the unconfessed sides of Victorian culture, the connection between what the waves were always saying and Dickens' nighttime wanderings might have seemed less than evident. The city of Paris, which Dickens once described as a wicked and detestable place, though wonderfully attractive, offered the prowler more vice with less hypocrisy than the city of London.2 The author, heart h…

The Last of the Iroquois
The text [...] as we possess it to-day, will tell us enough about its own vicissitudes. Two mutually [.. ..] opposed treatments have left their traces on it. On the one hand it has been subjected to revisions which have falsified it in the sense of their secret aims, have mutilated and amplified it and even changed it into its reverse; on the other hand a solicitous piety has presided over it and has sought to preserve everything as it was, no ma…

The Proverbs of Evaluation
In 1946, Herbert Simon published an article in Public Administration Review entitled Proverbs of Administration.' noted that proverbs almost always can be arrayed in mutually contradictory pairs. One example was Look before you leap! as contrasted with He who hesitates is lost. Similar examples spring readily to Absence makes the heart grow fonder is contradicted by of sight, out of mind. Similarly, Money is the root of all evil is offset by A he…

Four-Year Follow-Up of Alcoholics Treated at a Rural State Hospital
Follow-up of 392 men and 139 women alcoholics for 4 years after a 16-week inpatient treatment program in a state hospital showed 44%, in equal sex proportion, to have benefited substantially. There were many year-by-year shifts in status, and a very high mortality
Recognition of Community Control
Coordination and Status Influence
We develop a model to explain why the influence of higher-status individuals is often accepted even when status is not an indication of superior information or competence. We propose such acceptance as a rational strategy in cases where coordination is important. In our model agents must select from among a set of alternatives after witnessing the choices of some group of initial movers, one of whom is assumed to be of high status. These agents w…

Algorithmic Pricing and Competition
We provide the first empirical analysis of the relationship between algorithmic pricing (AP) and competition by studying the impact of adoption in Germany’s retail gasoline market, where software became widely available in 2017. Because adoption dates are unknown, we identify adopting stations by testing for structural breaks in AP markers, finding most breaks to be around the time of widespread AP introduction. Because station adoption is endoge…
Search Frictions and Market Power in Negotiated-Price Markets
We provide a framework for empirical analysis of negotiated-price markets. Using mortgage market data and a search and negotiation model, we characterize the welfare impact of search frictions and quantify the role of search costs and brand loyalty for market power. Search frictions reduce consumer surplus by $12/month/consumer, 28% of which can be associated with discrimination, 22% with inefficient matching, and 50% with search costs. Large con…

Portable gamma ray spectrometry for archaeological prospection
Several studies have suggested the potential value in applying gamma radiation surveys to support identification of buried archaeological features. However, the number of previous studies is very small and has yielded mixed results. The true efficacy of the technique is therefore unclear. Here, we report on an alternative survey method that uses Groundhog®, a portable gamma radiation system with spectrometric capability, to achieve high spatial d…
Drinking Water and Public Health in an Era of Aging Distribution Infrastructure
The provision of a safe and sustainable drinking water supply is one of the hallmarks of a successful society. Treated drinking water entering distribution systems in virtually all U.S. public drinking water systems meets regulations and is microbiologically safe. However, the opportunity for microbial contamination from decades to century old water distribution systems is increasing with time. Thus, increased health risk to consumers should be a…
The Potential for Electricity Market Restructuring in Quebec
In this paper we discuss the potential for future electricity market restructuring in Quebec. In particular, we consider the political economy of the abolishment of the Heritage Pool requirement, which caps wholesale prices. Its elimination is challenging since it would result in higher retail prices. However, if the extra revenue that would be earned from selling at the market price is properly redistributed, a majority of voters could benefit. …
Eligibility for publicly financed home care
OBJECTIVES. Proposals for publicly financed home care for the elderly now tend to include cognitive impairment criteria as well as activities of daily living (ADL) criteria. The numbers of elderly deemed eligible for services will depend on the definitions of ADL and cognitive impairment used. METHODS. Data from the 1984 National Long-Term Care Survey were used to generate a series of estimates of the community-dwelling elderly with ADL disabilit…
