 ABSTRACT = {A probability model is presented for the dynamics of mutation--
             selection balance in a haploid infinite-population infinite-sites
             setting sufficiently general to cover mutation-driven changes in
             full age-specific demographic schedules. The model accommodates
             epistatic as well as additive selective costs. Closed form
             characterizations are obtained for solutions in finite time, along
             with proofs of convergence to stationary distributions and a proof
             of the uniqueness of solutions in a restricted case. Examples are
             given of applications to the biodemography of aging.},

 ABSTRACT = {Bongaarts and Feeney offer alternatives to period life expectancy
             with a set of demographic measures equivalent to each other under a
             Proportionality Assumption. Under this assumption, we show that the
             measures are given by exponentially weighted moving averages of
             earlier values of period life expectancy. They are indices of
             mortality conditions in the recent past. The period life expectancy
             is an index of current mortality conditions. The difference is a
             difference between past and present, not a ``tempo distortion'' in
             the present. In contrast, the Bongaarts-Feeney tempo-adjusted Total
             Fertility Rate is a measure of current fertility conditions, which
             can be understood in terms of a process of birth-age
             standardization.},
