Therefore 0 + l)* s P + 1 mod p\ Now put t=<r + vp, (0 < c r < p 1). Then ^ = cr̂ , 0 + l)*' s (er + 1)*" mod p. Therefore (er + l)* = a + 1 mod p, (0 < a < p 1). This is relation (7) of my previous note; from this follows (1) as in the earlier treatment. Hence (1) is satisfied by all primes of the form Qn + 1. Therefore the test can be useful only when the exponent p is 3 or is of the form 6n — 1.

The evolution of wireless technology is creating vast opportunities for service delivery via hand-held devices. Of the various types of mobile services, the adoption and diffusion of mobile gaming seems to be the most widespread and is seen by many analysts to pave the way for other, more functional wireless services. This seems to be particularly true in Japan. However, contrary to the success...

The legalization of American Indian casino gaming in the late 1980s allows examination of the relationship between income and health in a quasi-experimental way. Revenue from gaming accrues to individual tribes and has been used both to supplement tribe members' income and to finance tribal infrastructure. We assembled annual data from 1988-2003 on tribal gaming, health care access (from the Ar...
