To wrap up an eventful year and to begin 2009, my study has been conveniently published online this month, and will be in paper form in January 2009:
Tseng ZJ. 2009. Cranial function in a late Miocene Dinocrocuta gigantea (Mammalia: Carnivora) revealed by comparative finite element analysis. Biological Journal of the Linnean Society 96:51-67.

If you are *still* interested after reading the abstract, please let me know and I will send you a copy of the study!
