Using intertemporal variation in whether a state’s minimum wage is bound by the federal rate and credit-score data for approximately 15.2 million establishments for the period 1989–2013, we find that increases in the federal minimum wage worsen the financial health of small businesses in the aff...
I. In order for the stance to be a stable one, the shooter must, first, distribute the weight of his body, the arm and pistol evenly on both legs; second, the load placed on each leg must pass through the middle of the foot or close to the balls of the feet. When the weight of...

The resistance values range from 0 to 500 (relative resistance level), where the higher the score is, the greater the resistance generated by the elements, and the lower the suitability of building ICH corridors in this area. The accuracy of the resistance weight determines the rationality of ...
We create an indicator for each variable and apply a score of one if the firm is smaller, younger, more leveraged or has a lower cash ratio than its peers within the same county and industry. The sum of these four indicators creates an index for each firm. The firm is then labeled as...
Both methods notably enhanced data quality, leading to more Gaussian-like distributions and marked improvements in the model’s simulation of precipitation intensity, spatial distribution, and large-scale circulation structures. During key precipitation phases, the Fraction Skill Score (FSS) for moderate ...
