John Goodall: We note with sadness the death on 23 November of John Goodall, FSA, expert on medieval and later heraldry (as well as on sigillography and Byzantine and Islamic numismatics) and a good friend over many years to the College of Arms where he had worked as a member of staff under Sir Anthony Wagner, former Garter King of Arms. He recently joined the editorial board of The Coat of Arms, the journal of the Heraldry Society, to which he had contributed many learned articles in the 1950s and 1960s; a fuller appreciation of his contribution to heraldic studies will appear in the March number of the journal.
A new team in the Bursar's Office: This month the College of Arms has appointed a new bursar, John Tonkin, formerly of the aphasia charity Speakability and previously, for many years, of Barclays Bank.

The Development of English Heraldry: David White, Somerset Herald will be speaking on this theme to four branches of Genootshap Nederland-Engeland (the Netherlands-England Society) in March 2006. He will be giving this lecture at Utrecht (21st March), Deventer (22nd), Breda (23rd) and Maastricht (24th).
Nelson's Heraldry: The exhibition about Nelson's heraldry currently on show in the Earl Marshal's Court has now been augmented by a re-creation of Nelson's uniform, comprising full dress coat, waistcoat and hat. The coat was fashioned by Ede and Ravenscroft (the well-known firm of robemakers) from a detailed study of the undress coat worn by Nelson at Trafalgar, preserved at the National Maritime Museum. Visible in the photograph (left) are the four stars he wore at the time of his death: top, the Order of the Bath; middle left, the Neapolitan Order of St Ferdinand and Merit; middle right, the Ottoman Order of the Star and Crescent; and bottom, the bogus Order of St Joachim created and hawked around the Courts of Europe by 'Sir' Levett Hanson.
In January it is intended to expand the section of the display relating to Nelson's state funeral, which took place at St. Paul's Cathedral on 9 January 1806. Sir Isaac Heard, Garter King of Arms, was responsible for organizing the ceremonial of the funeral. The exhibition will continue until 31 January 2006 and is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday to Friday.
Anthony Powell Society: On 30 November and 2 December 2005 an unusual use was made of the Earl Marshal's Court when it was converted into a temporary auditorium for rehearsed readings of The Garden God, a little-known play by the novelist Anthony Powell, the centenary of whose birth falls on 21 December.
An exhibition about the life and work of Anthony Powell is being staged at the Wallace Collection until 5 February 2006, and an associated conference (organized by the Anthony Powell Society) was held there on 2 and 3 December. Patric Dickinson, Richmond Herald, is Chairman of the Anthony Powell Society, and it was he who arranged the readings, principally as an entertainment for conference delegates. The performances were given by members of the Bar Theatrical Society along with two young professional actors.
Anthony Powell was a keen genealogist, who visited the College periodically from the 1930s to the 1970s. He was granted arms in 1944 but later managed to establish a male-line descent from Llywelyn Crugeryr (living in Radnorshire in the 14th century), which gave him an entitlement to the simple arms Sable an Eagle displayed Argent. He was a friend of Sir Anthony Wagner, Garter King of Arms, with whom he had professional dealings from the 1950s onwards.
Wagner was doubtless responsible for persuading Powell to lend his name to a letter published in The Times in March 1971 complaining about the proposed installation of street lamps immediately outside the College building. The other nineteen signatories included John Betjeman, Osbert Lancaster and Nikolaus Pevsner, but their protest was to no avail. The lamps were duly erected, and they remain there to this day.
Coronation: A History of Kingship and the British Monarchy by Sir Roy Strong was published in October 2005. This substantial work is based to a significant extent on the records of coronations held by the College of Arms, whose Officers, under the Earl Marshal, assist in the organization of these great state occasions. Hubert Chesshyre, Clarenceux King of Arms, introduced Sir Roy Strong at a pre-publication lecture on this topic at the Windsor Festival on 1 October.

January 15, 2017 2016-17 season, Injuries, Tom D'Angelo.
MIAMI – It does not appear that Josh Richardson will be returning anytime soon.
"It is still only a sprain, he is getting better but he still is in a boot," Spoelstra said following Heat practice today.
As a result of the injury, the Heat have applied for, and are expecting to receive, an additional roster spot under the NBA's hardship rule, according to a team spokesperson. Forward Okaro White, who plays for Miami's D-League affiliate in Sioux Falls, will be working out for the team on Monday and is expected to fill that spot.
In order for Miami to add a 16th player to the roster, an NBA doctor had to confirm that four total players would miss an additional two weeks after sitting out at least three consecutive games. Richardson's injury would fulfill that requirement with Chris Bosh (blood clots), Josh McRoberts (foot) and Justise Winslow (shoulder) all expected to miss the rest of the season.
The 6-foot-8 White, from Florida State, is averaging 18.0 points and 8.9 rebounds in 21 games for the Skyforce. He averaged 5.7 points and 4.3 rebounds for the Heat during the preseason before being waived.
The Heat opted to bring in White over guard Briante Weber, who was the final player cut by the Heat during training camp. He is the top NBA prospect in the D-League's "Prospect Watch" Top 25 rankings. Weber is averaging 14.1 points, 7.6 rebounds, 7.0 assists and 3.2 steals. Weber had a tryout with the Philadelphia 76ers last week but did not get the roster spot.
Miami (11-30) starts a four-game home stand Tuesday against the Rockets.
Richardson is dealing with his third injury of the season that has cost him 13 games so far and the entire training camp. He missed training camp and the start of the season after partially tearing an MCL in his right knee during the summer and then sat out six games because of a sprained ankle.
Backup center Willie Reed's bruised sternum that forced him to miss Friday's loss in Milwaukee is improving but Reed still was unable to go through contact work today. He did get in his running and non-contact work.
Reed was injured early in the Heat's recent six-game road trip while guarding Sacramento's DeMarcus Cousins. He played the next three games, averaging 10 points and 8.7 rebounds, including scoring 22 points and grabbing 12 rebounds against the Lakers, before sitting in Milwaukee.
The Heat are at the midway point of the season with the second worst record in the league, only ahead of Brooklyn.

IPOB FAMILIES STILL EXPANDING IN IGWEOCHA, OBIGBO MARKET ZONE INAUGURATES CHIEJINA STREET UNIT.
Despite all attempts to stop the restoration of Biafra, the great expansion of IPOB families and the progress in the quest to restore Biafra on daily basis, is surprising those who never expect it.
When it comes to the unrelenting struggle to restore Biafra, the Indigenous People Of Biafra families in Igweocha(Rivers state) is making huge progress and they are seriously taking the struggle to a greater height by constantly evangelizing, informing and gathering Biafrans together once again as a family.
On the 12th day of March 2017, IPOB family- Obigbo market zone in Igweocha expanded the family by inaugurating another family Street unit known as CHIEJINA STREET UNIT which they created as part of the task assigned to them in the journey to restore Biafra.
Among all the street units created and Inaugurated so far by the zone; the Inauguration of Chiejina Street unit took a great new style as the event was filled with much inspiring actions and educating words/histories delivered to the family by historians and others who were present at the event.
After delivering words of advice to the newly Inaugurated IPOB family Street unit; Obigbo market zone coordinator, Mrs Nkiruka(also known as Ada Biafra) urged the family unit to remain strong, formidable and resolute as they have always been. She further told members of Chiejina Street unit of the Obigbo market zone, to make it out as the number one point of duty to spread the gospel of the restoration of Biafra, not only in Obigbo and the whole Igweocha but also to make sure it gets to all parts of Biafra land as assigned and instructed by IPOB leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
Speaking to Family Writers' press, The IPOB family Street unit (Chiejina street unit) promised to work hard like never before and also to spread the gospel of the restoration of Biafra to all parts of Biafra land.


An employer can receive $9500 for a first year apprentice and $5000 each year after for the duration of the apprenticeship as an incentive to hiring a person with dyslexia. TAFE also receives $5000 to support the student.
All you need to do is take your current assessment for Dyslexia (must be dated within the last two years to be current) either to the person who originally assessed you or to your GP for confirmation that the condition still exists. This is called a medical verification form.
It is great to see the amount of support that exists OUT OF SCHOOL!


The two companies would have controlled almost 80 percent of the cell-phone market had the deal gone through.
AT&T Inc. is hanging up on its $39 billion bid to buy smaller wireless provider T-Mobile USA, nearly four months after the U.S. government voiced concerns that it would raise prices, reduce innovation, and give schools and other customers fewer choices.
The long-expected announcement left AT&T grumbling about a shortage of airwaves to expand its services, while scrappy competitor T-Mobile remains up for sale by German parent Deutsche Telekom.
The formal end of the deal was heralded by critics. No. 3 wireless carrier Sprint Nextel Corp. had feared "an undeniable duopoly" between the proposed new entity and current market leader Verizon Wireless. The two companies would have controlled almost 80 percent of the cell-phone market had the deal gone through.
The Justice Department had sued on Aug. 31 to block the merger, and the Federal Communications Commission's chairman came out against it last month. That prompted the companies to withdraw their FCC application while they strategized their next move.
"This is like receiving the divorce papers for a couple that's been separated for years," he said.
AT&T's purchase of fourth-ranked T-Mobile, announced in March, would have made it the largest cell-phone company in the U.S. AT&T is now the second-largest wireless carrier, with more than 100 million subscribers, behind Verizon Wireless, with 108 million. Sprint has 53 million, followed by T-Mobile at 34 million.
T-Mobile has endured without much investment from its parent company and without the highest-end devices such as Apple Inc.'s iPhone. It offered value packages to customers who brought phones from other carriers. Regulators feared the loss of T-Mobile as a competitor would hurt consumers.
AT&T now will have to pay Deutsche Telekom $3 billion in cash as a breakup fee and give it about $1 billion worth of airwaves, known as spectrum, that AT&T doesn't need for the continued rollout of its high-speed "4G" network.
It also will enter into a roaming agreement with Deutsche Telekom so that AT&T's and T-Mobile's customers can use each other's networks.
In pulling out, AT&T said the government's attempts to block the deal do not change the challenges of the wireless phone industry. Cell-phone companies have been clamoring for more airwaves to meet growing demand for faster downloads on smart phones and tablet computers.

Public rights of way
Rights of way maintenance
Information about who looks after public rights of way and how to report any issues.
Landowners, the County Council and the public each have responsibilities for rights of way. We've produced a leaflet that provides an overview of the duties and responsibilities of landowners and farmers (pdf / 2 MB). The public can do their part by following the Countryside Code, closing gates, protecting plants and animals and taking litter home.
Among our responsibilities are protecting the rights of way network, making sure paths are free from obstructions and that the furniture is easy to use and in good condition. Outside the national parks, maintenance of rights of way is taken care of by our countryside access officers, area rangers and a team of countryside volunteers. This is some of the work our maintenance team does:
Repair broken stiles and gates;
Install signposts and waymark paths;
Liaise with landowners to resolve problems;
Check obstructions and survey paths;
Survey and maintain long-distance and promoted routes; and
Supervise volunteers and contractors.
Volunteers help our rangers to look after rights of way. There are regular tasks in most of the ranger team areas. For more information, see our volunteering opportunities page.
How do I report a right of way issue?
If you come across issues affecting rights of way, complete the reporting path maintenance form (docx / 70 KB) and return it to us.
If you have any queries or issues with paths in the national parks please contact the rights of way teams in the relevant national park authority.
Dogs are allowed on public rights of way, but must be kept under close control. Intimidating dogs should be reported to us and the police. Problems with dog fouling should be reported to your district or borough council.
It is normal to meet livestock when out in the countryside using the public rights of way network. Adult beef bulls may be kept in fields crossed by public rights of way, as long as they are with cows or heifers. Dairy bulls (even if accompanied by cows or heifers) should never be kept on land crossed by a public right of way. Where you experience a problem, please let us know.
Cattle attacks are relatively rare. Follow these simple principles to reduce the risk:
Always walk around cows with calves. Walking between them can be seen as a threat;
If they approach, walk slowly and if you have a dog ensure it is at heel;
If you feel threatened, let go of your dog. It can run faster than cattle and escape; and
If in doubt, do not enter the field.
Crops, vegetation and surfacing
Farmers are entitled to plough public rights of way if it is not reasonably convenient to avoid them. This only applies to cross-field footpaths and bridleways.
The landowner is responsible for ensuring that a hedge does not overhang and obstruct a public right of way. If a right of way is obstructed by a fallen tree or large branch, responsibility for its removal lies with the tree owner. We are responsible for ensuring that vegetation on the surface of a right of way is kept under control and does not make the route difficult to use. Overgrowth of plants and shrubs alongside the path is the responsibility of the landowner.
We, as the highway authority, are responsible for the surface of all public rights of way - the landowner's interest only extends to the sub soil. If you need to dig up the surface to lay pipes or drains, for example, you should contact us first.
Landowners may find this leaflet about their duties and responsibilities useful (pdf / 2 MB).
Gates, stiles, signs and bridges
It is the landowner's duty to ensure that stiles and gates are in good repair. Anyone wanting to install additional gates or stiles on footpaths or bridleways must apply to us in writing. A padlocked gate on a public right of way constitutes an obstruction; we have the right to remove it without consultation if the issue cannot be resolved.
Responsibility for bridges and culverts is shared between us and the landowner, and we are responsible for most footbridges. The rail authority is responsible for most footbridges over railway lines, while British Waterways is responsible for all bridges over the canal network.
All public rights of way should be signposted where they leave a road. We have an on-going programme of replacing missing and broken signposts. If you notice any, please let us know.
Other obstructions
Intimidating behaviour designed to stop the use of a public right of way may be an offence and may amount to obstruction of the path. Such issues should be reported to us. If the behaviour is a public nuisance, the police should also be told.
Owners and occupiers of land crossed by public rights of way can be liable for injuries caused by negligence. For example, if a stile were to collapse under a walker, or if someone was injured by an electric fence placed across a path, the injured party may pursue a claim. We are responsible for the right of way surface. In certain circumstances, we will be liable if the injury is due to a negligent act.
There should never be exposed barbed wire or electric fences across a public right of way without a means of crossing. Where a barbed wire or electric fence is alongside a right of way, it may be a danger. There should be electric fence warning signs at regular intervals.

Answers for readers: pets
Sep. 2, 2014 Updated: Oct. 12, 2020 11:41 a.m.
seattlepi.com fileQ: Can I really be ticketed if my cat isn't licensed with the city? A: Yes. If a Seattle Animal Shelter officer catches an unlicensed dog, cat, potbelly pig or miniature goat, the owner could face a $125 municipal court fine. Even cats that are kept indoors are required to be licensed. Licensed cats are not required to wear collars, but dogs are. Shelter officials say the licenses help identify lost animals. The city started a zero-tolerance policy for unlicensed pets in 2007. If someone forgets to pay the renewal fee, a $15 penalty is added. But shelter staff give chances for breaks. "You have a grace period of 30 days beyond your renewal expiration date to renew," director Don Jordan said. "And we always send out our renewal notices out at least a month ahead."
Scott Eklund/Seattle Post-IntelligencerQ: Today I saw a driver with cats on his dashboard. Is that legal? What about people who drive with a dog on their lap? Is that legal? A: Troopers say no to both cases. Trooper Julie Startup said she hasn't seen someone driving with a cat on his dashboard, but would "absolutely" ticket someone in that case, or if someone was found driving with a dog on her lap. There isn't a specific state law that prohibits those scenarios, though Startup said they're covered by second-degree negligent driving. That's the statute that troopers used to ticket for texting while driving and using their cell phone on the road before those actions were specifically outlawed. The fine if caught driving with a dog or cat on your lap is $550, Startup said. In one famous case, author Stephen King suffered life- and career-altering injuries after a minivan driver distracted by a dog struck him. Troopers aren't concerned if the animal is secured in a carrier, not distracting the driver.
HANDOUT/seattlepi.com fileQ: Is it illegal for my dog to ride in my car with his head sticking out of the sunroof or a window? A: "There's really no law against it," State Patrol Trooper Cliff Pratt said. "But it's kind of a pet peeve of mine." Troopers discourage letting pets ride with drivers because they say it's a distraction that can lead to accidents. In one famous case, author Stephen King suffered life and career-altering injuries after a minivan driver distracted by a dog struck him. If a dog or pet is hopping around or otherwise distracting the driver, troopers could cite the driver for reckless endangerment or negligent driving. But driving with a dog hanging its head outside your car window won't always lead to a ticket.
KURT SMITH/seattlepi.com fileQ: Is there a legal restriction on how long a dog can be left in a parked car? What about in a car parked in a parking garage? What's the penalty? A: "There is no law regarding the time a dog can be left in a parked vehicle," State Patrol trooper Dan McDonald said. "However, if the conditions warrant, the owner can be charged with Animal Cruelty under RCW 16.52.207." Humane law enforcement officers at the Seattle Animal Shelter say that on hot spring and summer days, they can be swamped with calls about animals trapped in cars. Animal shelter staff says that even with car windows slightly open, the buildup of heat inside a car can top 160 degrees in a few minutes with a 65 degree temperature outside. If you see a dog suffering from heat exhaustion, call the shelter at (206) 386-PETS.
GILBERT W. ARIAS/PIQ: Are there any laws regarding small pets that require owners to keep them confined or within their own property limits, namely cats? A: The answer comes from Seattle Animal Shelter Enforcement Supervisor Don Baxter: "There is not a leash law against cats. That said, if the cat is just walking through a neighbors yard there is no violation. If the cat defecates, digs up plants, scratches cars, etc. on the neighbor's property these would be violations for which the cat could be trapped and impounded. If they live in Seattle, they would need to call the dispatch number and request to be put on the trapping list. There is no fee for our traps but there is a waiting list. The waiting list is about a month long and at times can be longer. If someone can't wait, they can rent or purchase a humane live trap to set on their property. Before they set it though they would need to get authorization from us. If they set the trap without authorization they could face criminal prosecution.

GFX 50R is Fujifilm's rangefinder-style medium format camera
By Phil Hall 25 September 2018
Also announces development of 100MP GFX 100S
After the success of the GFX 50S, Fujifilm's taken the wraps the GFX 50R. Designed for reportage photography, the GFX 50R sports a rangefinder-style design inspired by Fujifilm's rangefinder heritage.
The GFX 50R is both 2.5cm thinner than the GFX 50S, and at 775g, 145g lighter than it's medium format sibling.
Internally at least, it appears the the GFX 50R will share many of the same features as the GFX 50S. This includes the same 51.4MP sensor with a physical size some 1.7x larger than a full-frame chip and measuring 43.8 x 32.9mm (producing 4:3 aspect ratio images).
The GFX 50R also features Fujifilm's X-Processor Pro image processing engine and supports the company's Film Simulation modes, making it possible to recreate the tonality of photographic films such as Velvia, Provia and Acros.
The GFX 50R is equipped with the 0.77x 3.69m-dot organic electronic viewfinder which Fujifilm says allows for accurate focusing despite the large size of the medium format sensor.
The magnesium alloy body of the GFX 50R is weather-sealed in 64 places to provide dust and weather resistance, as well as the ability to operate at temperatures as low as -10 degrees celsius.
The GFX 50R will be available from November, with pricing set at AU$7,099 in Australia, with the price tag in other markets yet to be confirmed.
GFX 100S
Fujifilm also took the opportunity at its Photokina 2018 press conference to reveal that its working on a new 100MP GFX 100S medium format camera.
The new camera will feature on-senor phase-detection autofocus, as well as in-body image stabilization (IBIS) and 4K video recording capabilities. No more details as yet though.
Photokina is the world's biggest photography show, and TechRadar is reporting live from Cologne to bring you all the big announcements, plus hands-on reviews of new cameras and kit. Keep up with all the news here.

County, city to finance pipeline study
Water, sewers for West Augustine
St. Augustine and St. Johns County officials plan to sign a grant-loan of $390,000 on Jan. 9 that they hope will start a years-long project to extend water and sewage pipelines through West Augustine.
Representatives of both governments are meeting Wednesday to "make sure we're on the same page," St. Johns County Commissioner Ken Bryan said Monday.
He said the discussion with St. Augustine City Commissioner Errol Jones and Chairman Greg White of the West Augustine Community Redevelopment Agency will cover some financing issues.
But the $390,000 is only a small fraction of the estimated total cost of $20 million for the project, Bryan said.
"It will pay for a feasibility study — to find out if the project is possible — and for some design," he said. "If the project's not feasible, it dies. But we're all very confident the whole thing is possible."
One factor in their favor is that the state and federal governments will respond promptly to the public health crisis in West Augustine, which for years has had higher incidences of disease caused by leaking septic tanks and contaminated water wells.
Earlier this year, city officials hired the global consulting and utilities firm of Black & Veatch to apply for every local. state and federal grant possible.
Jones said the city supplies water service to West Augustine residents, even though they live in the county.
But without sewage capacity available, there can be no manufacturing, restaurants or hundreds of other businesses that require it.
"A main line would allow them to get some industry," Jones said. "It means jobs and a positive economic impact on the community."
The main problem, both men said, is not getting the pipeline built, but running it afterward. People who have lived with a septic tank and water well for many years sometimes resist paying a utility bill they never had before, so they decide not to hook up.
"Education is necessary to overcome that barrier," Bryan said. "And some enforcement may be required."
State law does not require that people using a septic tank must hook up to a sewage system going by their house. However, the area is poor, he said. Many people exist on Social Security alone, so a $7,000 hookup charge is not possible for them, much less the monthly bills.
Bryan said the county is thinking of using Block Grant money to help with that, and other grants from state and federal environmental regulators may help as well. Some of the new hires in the neighborhood would come from the new businesses created, as well as be people paid to remove and destroy the old septic tanks.
Jones said someone with a new septic tank probably will be unhappy when forced to pay to hook up to a sewer.
"Which (interest) reigns supreme?" he said. "Health is the major concern. We have to show people that it's in their interest to hook up. But this (problem) is not going to stop what we have to do. The city must be concerned about the ongoing cost."
Jones would like both the city and county to enforce the regulations.
"I don't see sending a city police officer out there," he said. "We have to join hands with the county. This (project) is desperately needed. It's long overdue and it can work. This can be an economic engine that will support the area."

*This image shows abstract points in two-dimensional space to which real data samples correspond to

*This image shows projected versions of data samples in three-dimensional space

These are my sentences, but I think both of them are weak. How can I express this?

Abstract: Brief summary of important results.
Introduction: Overview of previous work and how your report fits in. Also include the purpose of your report.
Body: This includes your data collection methods, analysis, and results; or for more descriptive reports it includes the literature survey.
Discussion: Examination of your findings compared to other similar situations.
Conclusions: Main results, importance of the study, recommendations for future work.
References: Use at least 5 primary references from journal articles. Secondary references, such as books, should be limited to the most general concepts. Tertiary references (newspaper or magazine articles, and web pages) should be handled with care as they are not peer-reviewed by the science community. They should be kept to a minimum. For reference style, pick any scientific journal article and use their style. Include a copy of a list of the article references so I can verify the style used.
Citations: Cited references in the text must follow scientific practice. That is, (author, year), for two authors (author and author, year) and for 3 or more authors (author, et al., year). For example, (Newton, 1624), (Newton and Galileo, 1625), (Einstein, et al., 1915). The latter is for an article written by Einstein, Newton, and Galileo. In the references, all names are spelled out.
It is difficult to compose an outline for all varieties of reports so you may need to adapt this outline to your specific project.
The length of the report is variable and it is hard to say what length is expected because it depends on the quantity and quality of material. Shortening the report where important information is left out is not good. Adding verbiage, fluff, and lots of figures to lengthen the report is not good and is transparent. (we've all tried it) A rough guide would be 10 pages not including references. Remember content is important and the grade will be largely based on content.
The reports are to be neat, typed in 12 point font, numbered pages and stapled. Unstapled reports will not be accepted. Inbed the figures and tables in the body of the report in locations just after where they are cited in the text. The style of the report, including references, will follow one of the main scientific journals you use.
For a ready guide, take a scientific journal article. Note how that paper is structured, sections headings, and how the content flows. Note the format of the figures, captions, and references. Pattern your paper after this paper. Hopefully you won't pick a bad paper as a guide. If you have any questions regarding the format or the quality of the paper you are using as a guide, ask me. Include a copy of a few pages of a paper, including a page of references, that you patterned your report. I hate to have to include this, but include page numbers!
Known problems: The most common problem with poor reports is the citations. Often a report will cite a few books (secondary source) and maybe a journal article or two (primary source) and it becomes very clear that the report is based on very little material. You must think of your report as something you would submit to a journal for publication. Please observe how scientific journal articles cite many previous works. It demonstrates a comprehensive knowledge of the topic and the fact that the important other previous works have considered in the preparation of the article. Without sufficient citations, the journal article (and your paper) is considered not well-researched and poorly founded on past advances and therefore its contribution to new knowledge is suspect.
The report can not rely on secondary sources, it must refer to primary sources. Primary sources delve into greater detail and are typically more current. Secondary sources are a summary of the subject from the author's perspective, you must synthesize the material your self from the primary sources.
Be forewarned, obtaining articles from interlibrary loan can be slow, so start early.
Occasionally, a paper will be submitted that is just poorly written. Please have someone else, particularly someone in class, read your manuscript over prior to submission. They should catch the major flaws. It can only help your grade.

OpenCitations' 2022: one year, numerous outcomes
2023 has arrived, and it's the time to put aside the old agendas and to fill the freshly printed organizers with new tasks. However, it is also worth looking back over the achievements of the past year.
So, before consigning 2022 to the archives, we want to take a moment to recall and celebrate all that OpenCitations has achieved over the past year, in terms of technical developments, community building, and our own internal organization.
Clarifying our objectives
Since its foundation, OpenCitations has been presented to the scholarly community as a infrastructure organization guided by the values of openness, equity and accessibility. In 2022, we publicly clarified our mission, our aims and our unique points by publishing these three documents:
OpenCitations Mission Statement
The Uniqueness of OpenCitations
OpenCitations – Present Status and Future Plans
In addition, we continued to monitor OpenCitations' compliance with the Principles of Open Scholarly Infrastructure. Because one area in which we were still falling short involved stakeholder involvement in OpenCitations' governance, in 2022 OpenCitations started reflecting on its organizational structure by creating a Governance Evolution Working Group. In addition, we explored the further development of our stakeholder community by establishing a parallel Community Building Working Group. These two small working groups, involving members of the OpenCitations International Advisory Board, will continue to meet throughout 2023 to develop strategic plans concerning OpenCitations open governance structure and outreach.
More people, more tools
In 2022, OpenCitations welcomed two new full-time developers to its team: Arianna Moretti as software developer, and Ivan Heibi as the person responsible for OpenCitations' technical infrastructure. As of January 2023, the OpenCitations team consists of our two directors Silvio Peroni and David Shotton, our administrator and research manager Claudio Fabbri, myself as our communications director and community development manager, and our four developers: Giuseppe Grieco (software and systems developer), Arcangelo Massari (developer of OpenCitations Meta), Arianna Moretti (software and indexes developer), and Ivan Heibi (technical infrastructure manager). This team meets weekly at the Research Centre for Open Scholarly Metadata within the University of Bologna.
This enlarged technical workforce has been crucial in the development of the two new OpenCitations indexes, DOCI (citations from DataCite) and POCI (citations from PubMed), and our new database of bibliographic metadata, OpenCitations Meta, all of which were released in December 2022:
DOCI, the OpenCitations Index of DataCite open DOI-to-DOI citations, is an RDF dataset containing details of all the citations that are specified in the most recent dump of DataCite metadata. The citations available in DOCI are treated as first-class data entities, with accompanying properties including the citations timespan, modelled according to the OpenCitations Data Model. Its first release (December 2022) contains information on 169,822,752 citations from 358,277 bibliographic resources.
POCI, the OpenCitations Index of PubMed open PMID-to-PMID citations, is an RDF dataset containing details of all the citations from publications bearing PubMed Identifiers (PMIDs) to other PMID-identified publications, harvested from the National Institutes of Health Open Citations Collection (NIH-OCC). As for DOCI, the citations available in POCI are treated as first-class data entities, with accompanying properties including the citations timespan, modelled according to the OpenCitations Data Model. Its first release contains 717,654,703 citations from 26,024,862 bibliographic resources.
OpenCitations Meta database stores and delivers bibliographic metadata for all the publications involved as citing or cited publications in the citations recorded in the OpenCitations Indexes. For each publication, the metadata exposed by OpenCitations Meta includes the publication's title, type, venue (e.g. journal name), volume number, issue number, page numbers, publication date, and identifiers such as Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) and PubMed Identifiers (PMIDs). In addition, OpenCitations Meta includes details of the main actors involved in the document's publication, i.e., the names of the authors, editors, and publishers, each with its own additional metadata and identifier (e.g. ORCID). Its first release (December 2022) contains information on 87,321,593 bibliographic entities, 277,750,235 authors and 2,359,301 editors (counted by their roles, without disambiguating individuals), 710,226 publication venues, and 17,268 publishers.
As can be seen on OpenCitations roadmap, we have many tasks already scheduled for 2023, and for this reason OpenCitations team needs to expand further: we now seek applicants for a new Research Fellow position to work on the further development of the OpenCitations technical infrastructure from April 2023.
Our role in the community
Throughout 2022, the OpenCitations team has participated both online and in person in a number of international events, presenting details of OpenCitations to potential stakeholders and to Open Science experts, and connecting with similar organizations.
In October, OpenCitations organized our third workshop, the Workshop on Open Citations and Open Scholarly Metadata 2023, as a three-hour online event, to gather together and connect researchers, publishers and policy makers interested in the creation, reuse and improvement of open citation data and open scholarly metadata. The invited speakers provided a broad overview of the current state and future development of open bibliographic metadata and the scholarly record, and the role of OpenCitations in research assessment.
We have participated in two major European research and development project: In the context of the EC-funded project RISIS2 we released the new database OpenCitations Meta and the index DOCI, while within the OpenAIRE-Nexus project network we continue to provide open bibliographic citations as part of the open data components of OpenAIRE and the European Open Science Cloud. During 2022, the OpenAIRE team supported our activities in many areas, with a particular attention to communication and dissemination, as we explained in our blog post OpenCitations and EC funding: OpenAIRE Nexus and RISIS2.
The end of 2022 brought with it two new exciting collaborations that will be developed during the coming year: the inclusion of OpenCitations in the Jisc Collections, thereby permitting UK institutions to support OpenCitations through JISC; and our involvement in the GraspOS project (starting date January 1, 2023) as an open and trusted federated infrastructure for next-generation research metrics and indicators.
Continuing support
At OpenCitations we are deeply grateful to all our members and donors that have supported us financially so far, thus making it possible to enlarge our team, maintain our technical infrastructure, and work on our new data releases.
Much of our success has been due to our selection as an infrastructure worthy for inclusion in the SCOSS second pledging round in 2019. SCOSS helped us get in touch with a wider community, and enabled OpenCitations to have an increasingly significant role in the research environment. OpenCitations is now part of the SCOSS family, the community of all SCOSS-supported infrastructures, that provides a framework of mutual support for the the Infrastructures during their growth and a safety net should troubles occur along the path.
However, OpenCitations still has a long way to go along the path from being a sustainable open infrastructure to becoming a sustained open infrastructure providing reliable and invaluable services to our global stakeholder community. There are still many long-planned activities that we hope to initiate in the near future, given sufficient resources. This is why OpenCitations requires ongoing support from the scholarly community as our three-year period of SCOSS sponsorship draws to a close. All the information you may require to start helping us financially is available on the OpenCitations website: https://opencitations.net/membership.
2023 has just started. With your support, you can help us in making it an impactful year for OpenCitations and the Open Science community as a whole.

The OpenCitations Roadmap is now publicly available on Trello
Want to keep yourself updated about the ongoing activities of OpenCitations? We have now publicly released the OpenCitations Roadmap, available on Trello.com:
https://trello.com/b/RprHYoKL/opencitations
The OpenCitations Roadmap consists of a board fulfilled with colour-labelled cards which present the goals so far reached, the present projects and activities, and the future plans. By clicking on the cards, it is possible to visualize a description for each activity, the progress state, and who in the OpenCitations team is working on it.
The OpenCitations Roadmap covers all kinds of activities divided according to the scope, identified by the coloured labels, in particular:
light blue for the technical development, such as the development of the software for the creation of the new database OpenCitations Meta and of DOCI, the OpenCitations Index of DataCite open DOI-to-DOI citations, and the re-engineering of the infrastructure and the website;
green for the data model implementation;
yellow for the data development, such as the bi-monthly COCI releases;
purple for the events and outreach activities.
The cards also highlight the activities related to the two EC-funded projects OpenCitations is involved in, OpenAIRE Nexus (blue label) and RISIS2 (orange label). We thank the OpenAIRE team for the help and suggestions during the Roadmap review process.
The OpenCitations Roadmap is an open work in progress that will reflect the developments and growth of OpenCitations. At OpenCitations, we don't want this Roadmap to be just an online 'showcase', but a room in which to share ideas and opinions. We invite you – the members of our community, our stakeholders, the other Open Science actors, researchers, and librarians, and anyone who is interested in OpenCitations activities – to add a comment or a question in the 'Leave feedback' card. This will help us to better understand our strong and weak points, and to stay in touch with the needs and thoughts of the community.
In this way, supplementing the conventional communications channels of email and the social platforms (our blog, Twitter, LinkedIn), the OpenCitations Roadmap will become a new virtual place for dialogue, where you can directly contribute to improve OpenCitations.

OpenCitations and EC funding: OpenAIRE Nexus and RISIS2
The incentives for new OpenCitations innovative solutions
Two years ago, in their canonical 2020 QSS paper on OpenCitations, Silvio Peroni and David Shotton anticipated the creation of the new database, OpenCitations Meta, able to "offer a faster and richer service" by storing bibliographic metadata "in house". Meta would "avoid duplication of data by efficiently permitting us to keep […] a single copy of the metadata for each of the bibliographic entities involved as citing or cited entities in the different OpenCitations' citation indexes", would remove the requirement for potentially slow API calls to external metadata sources such as Crossref and ORCID, and would enable us to index citations involving entities lacking DOIs.
Important synergies to achieve goals
Today, thanks to the recent involvement of OpenCitations in two EC-funded projects, the OpenAIRE-Nexus Project (Horizon 2020 EU funded project, GA: 101017452) and the RISIS2 Project (Horizon 2020 EU funded project, GA: 824091), the development of OpenCitations Meta has commenced, with a planned release date later in 2022.
The OpenAIRE-Nexus project started in January 2021 to embrace and expand the operation of a portfolio of thirteen services, provided by OpenAIRE infrastructure, public institutions, organisations and universities, classified into three portfolios entitled PUBLISH, MONITOR, and DISCOVER. The OpenAIRE-Nexus portfolios focus on the demands of the three main categories of the research lifecycle. Therefore, OpenAIRE-Nexus makes sure such services are integrated to provide a uniform Open Science Scholarly Communication package for the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC). Within the OpenAIRE Nexus project there is scope for producing not only support materials (factsheet, guides, video tutorials, demos) but also training sessions where the services in the three portfolios will be showcased, anticipating the EOSC onboarding process. The role of OpenCitations in the project is to provide open bibliographic citations, and interconnect and integrate (and vice versa) functionalities with the OpenAIRE Research Graph and more OpenAIRE-Nexus services such as EpiSciences, OpenAIRE MONITOR) the core component of OpenAIRE infrastructure and services and of the EOSC Resource Catalogue.
Additionally, we are happy to announce our recent involvement in the RISIS2 Project. The Research Infrastructure for Science and Innovation Policy Studies (RISIS) is a project funded by the European Union under a Horizon2020 Research and Innovation Programme. RISIS2 involves 18 partners working together to create and maintain a research infrastructure for the field of Science, Technology, and Industry (STI) Studies, and to build an advanced research community in this field. OpenCitations' contributions to RISIS2 will include not only the creation of OpenCitations Meta but also the development of a new citation index of open references, the OpenCitations Index of DataCite Open Citations (DOCI), which will be based on the open reference holdings of DataCite and, together with COCI, will be cross-searchable through our unified OpenCitations API.
Lessons learnt so far
A year into the OpenAIRE-Nexus project, we have found that one of the most significant benefits for OpenCitations is our involvement with this wide cooperative network of European research infrastructures, services, and communities, within which we can exchange experiences, ideas, and knowledge, and discuss any challenges and outcomes with our colleagues. More importantly, OpenCitations becomes positioned within the Open Science ecosystem, as a valuable innovative infrastructure with strong proof of integration and interoperable operations. Being part of the OpenAIRE-Nexus team has opened up more future challenges and expectations, and raised the bar for the inclusion of more functionalities of value. Thanks to the dedication of its efficient communication team, OpenAIRE is also helping us by communicating OpenCitations services to additional users and stakeholders, by inclusion within the comprehensive OpenAIRE services catalogue, by releasing an OpenCitations factsheet and by permitting us to present the latest information on OpenCitations through established events (i.e. Open Science FAIR 2022). FAIR and openness of information is our motto, and we strongly promote this through all our activities.
Expanding our team
As announced in our previous blog post "Five reasons why 2021 has been a great year for OpenCitations", the support we receive from the EU as part of OpenAIRE-Nexus has enabled our recent appointment of Arcangelo Massari, a software developer who is now playing a crucial role in the creation and development of OpenCitations Meta.
As the year 2022 progresses, we look forward to bringing you further information about other new goals for OpenCitations, made possible by the support we receive from our numerous partnerships.

Camso buys Texas industrial tire distributor
MAGOG, Quebec — Industrial tire maker Camso Ltd. has acquired Omni Industrial Tire of San Antonio to expand the presence of its materials-handling distribution and tire service business in the Texas market.
Camso describes Omni Industrial as the second largest industrial tire specialist in Texas, with four locations throughout southern Texas. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
"The acquisition…will enable Camso to further penetrate the Texas market and consolidate its leadership position in this region," according to Bob Bulger, Camso vice president and general manager — Solideal On-Site Service.
"Omni has a strong and respected name in Texas, and shares our unique view of providing OTR mobility solutions."
San Antonio-based Omni Industrial was founded in 2001, specializing in the sales, service and installation of forklift, construction and agricultural tires and Soft Poly Tire Fill flat proofing. It maintains branches in McAllen, Corpus Christi and Laredo, Texas.
Omni Industrial Owner Paul will continue to work with the Camso service team for a transition period, Camso said. All other employees are being retained.
The acquired business will continue operate as under the Omni Industrial name for the rest of 2017 then transition in 2018 to the Solideal On Site Service identity.
The deal represents a growth opportunity for Camso and its independent service division, Solideal-On-Site Service, Mr. Bulger said.
Magog-based Camso, formerly Camoplast Solideal, goes to market as the "Road Free" company, emphasizing its strengths in the design, manufacturing, and distribution of off-road tires, wheels, rubber tracks and undercarriage systems for the materials-handling, construction, agricultural and powersports industries.

#10189 closed bug (invalid)
.wrap() fails to set the wrapper's parent
Everything explained in this example: http://jsfiddle.net/tvusW/
Using Google Chrome on OS X Lion with jQuery 1.6.2.
If you look at the document that results after the wrapping, the method did its job; the input is wrapped in a div.
The docs say:
The structure will be wrapped around each of the elements in the set of matched elements.
Clearly, if there were two inputs in the selection the SAME div could not be wrapped around both inputs, right? View the wrappingElement as a template for the content that will be wrapped.
True, the input is being wrapped correctly by the div. The action of wrapping works as expected. However, the issue I'm seeing is that the div's parent isn't being correctly set. It should be the form, but it's saying it has no parent, which is obviously incorrect. My example shows two things: 1) it shows that .wrap() doesn't set the div's parent, and 2) then it resets the example and shows that appending the input to the div (accomplishing the same thing as .wrap(), just in a different way) does correctly set the div's parent.
Sorry if my example wasn't completely clear, but I still believe this is a legitimate bug.
The code asks for .wrap() to wrap the input in a div. It did that, making a *copy* of the div from $wrapper and wrapping the input with the copy. The method doesn't say the wrapping elements are the original ones you specified, only that the same structure is used. And clearly for a jQuery object with more than 1 element, it cannot use the same elements that are passed in, it has to make copies.
If you explicitly insert $wrapper into the DOM yourself, the outcome is different since you've put *that* element in the DOM and not a copy. If that's the desired behavior, use that code instead.
Ah, that makes sense. Sorry, I didn't understand that it makes a copy. I see now that the last example in the documentation for .wrap() (http://api.jquery.com/wrap/) specifies that a copy is made. Thanks for your help!
