Berkeley is continually promoting itself as a leader, a city of innovation, ahead of the pack and occasionally it is. On June 12, 2018, Berkeley did declare a Climate Emergency and passed a resolution to be Fossil Fuel Free by 2030. The Declaration even made Fox Business News commentary The problem is follow-through.
Saturday, February 23 at the well-attended "Can Berkeley be a Livable City for All?" forum sponsored by the Berkeley Neighborhood Council, Mayor Jesse Arreguin and Planning Director Timothy Burroughs would lead you to believe there is a communication problem not an action problem. Let's pull back the curtain.
On Tuesday, February 26, the same day San Francisco Supervisors will vote to put forward their Climate Emergency Resolution, the Berkeley City Council will vote on Mayor Arreguin's agenda item #22 to retire the Ad Hoc Climate Emergency Subcommittee.
I strongly support Berkeley's efforts to accelerate our actions to address the climate emergency. I was proud to vote for the June 2018 resolution to officially declare a "climate emergency", and supported the regional Town Hall which was held in August 2018 to discuss solutions. The Council's Ad-Hoc Climate Emergency Subcommittee was originally formed to organize this regional Town Hall and to discuss ways to deepen efforts to fight climate change.
Isn't it odd (not to mention blindingly hypocritical) that Trump complains about a fictitious "threat" to America's southern border while simultaneously threatening to launch a full-bore military invasion by sending US troops across the border of Venezuela? When it comes to "threats to borders," who poses the greater danger—poor migrant families seeking asylum or heavily armed US troops seeking to control Venezuela's oil and minerals?
Fiction: President Maduro was not legitimately elected.
Fact: Maduro won the Presidential election with a greater majority (68% of the vote) and backed by a greater majority of the population than any recent US president. In that election (which was judged legitimate by international observers), the US-backed candidates lost decisively and Juan Guaido's faction didn't even participate.
Fiction: The Maduro government in Venezuela is about to fall.
Fact: The elected government of Venezuela retains the loyalty of the majority of the people and of the military despite US-imposed economic sanctions, blackmail and threats.
On Saturday the Berkeley Neighborhood Council sponsored a public forum, Can Berkeley be a Livable City for All?, which featured Berkeley Mayor Jesse Arreguin and Berkeley Planning Director Timothy Burroughs explaining their current thinking and actions in the key field of land use, followed by an open no-holds-barred opportunity for participants to question and address them on all kinds of topics. The meeting was the best possible illustration of how the city's public meetings, which typically limit citizen comments to meaningless one minute soundbytes, serve little or no purpose in informing officials, both hired and elected, about what's happening on the ground in Berkeley.
This gathering, which was held in the community center in South West Berkeley's San Pablo Park, gave the city's many articulate thinkers as long as they needed to talk about what's right and what's wrong with the way the city is being run these days, at least in matters which involve land use. Thanks to volunteer videographer Christine Schwartz, there's an excellent public record of what was said, and it's worth the time to watch the whole three hours of it. (Yes, that's what I said, three hours!).
It would be great if someone, a reader perhaps, could create an index to highlight particularly cogent comments—any volunteers? A transcription or summary of high points would also be good—I might try that myself later in the week.
Climate note #4: "Massive die-offs and possible extinction: really?!?"
"Berkeley Must Advocate for Housing Affordability", so says an op ed in the Feb 12 Daily Cal. The article praises student protestors for showing up at the Berkeley City Council meeting to advocate for the development of an 18-story housing complex in downtown Berkeley and to denounce the residents who opposed the building on the basis of its interference with views of the Bay Area. The op ed goes on, "But one thing they (students) failed to do was demand affordability". ……"The development of new market rate housing merely contributes to the gentrification of Berkeley, exacerbating the lack of affordable housing for local residents." ??????
So, after the project gets approved by the council the student newspaper says what a lot of Berkeley residents have been thinking.
Views aside, the project will not after all have any "affordable" apartments. Were the students aware of that before they put on their demonstration?
There seems to be a pattern here. Yet another big box corporate monster apartment building gets proposed and the shock troops (students,YIMBYs and media) show up to bully, deride and attribute motives to Berkeley citizens who have real concerns. Council is emboldened to stick with their marching orders and spit in the face of their tax paying constituents.
No bull on Trump Nobel?

Never heard of Tuaca? It is a delicious Italian liquor with a sort of caramel-y flavor followed by a citrus taste and a hint of vanilla. You may enjoy it in your apple cider or straight up as many Italians do.


Welcome to the 3rd edition of This Week in Neo4j for 2019.
We've got a variety of different things for you this week. Christophe Willemsen has written an excellent deep dive into the Full-Text Search feature released in Neo4j 3.5, Dr Jim Webber explains how Neo4j can be used for large scale systems using less servers, Emil is interviewed on Azeem Azhar's podcast, and of course we have the next post in Jennifer Reif's Marvel Series!
This week's featured community member is my colleague Michael Simons – Java-Champion, JUG-Lead, conference speaker and book author. Besides his two sons and wife, coding, writing, biking, running and taking pictures are playing a big role in his life. You can more about him on his site.
Michael joined Neo4j as part of the Spring Data team in Summer 2018, and is working with Gerrit Meier to enhance the capabilities of Neo4j-OGM and Spring Data Neo4j which are used by a lot of our users and customers.
But it doesn't stop there. After joining Michael immediately started building examples, writing articles, giving talks at conferences and user groups and contributing to other open source projects.
He recently submitted Neo4j support to TestContainers and wrote about it here. This week Michael gave an JUG talk in Utrecht where he met co-biker Rik van Bruggen, who interviewed Michael on the Graphistania podcast in October.
This week in the Neo4j Online Meetup, Tom Zeppenfeldt gave us a fascinating deep dive into some of the capabilities of Graphileon – a tool that can be used to rapidly design and deploy graph-based applications.
Tom showed how to query data from the MeaningCloud text analytics API, and build a graph from the results using Graphileon. If you want to quickly build your first graph app without having to worry about the glue code, this presentation is a pretty good place to start.
One of the major features released in Neo4j 3.5 was support for Full Text Search, and in the months since then Christophe Willemsen has been taking it through its paces.
This week he wrote a blog post explaining how Apache Lucene, the underlying search, works under the covers. With the help of a worked example Christophe explains the data structures used by Lucene, shows how to write fuzzy and wildcard queries, and explains the scores returned by the search engine.
Our Chief Scientist, Dr Jim Webber, has been in the video studio this week, explaining how Neo4j can be used for very large scale systems.
Using the example of a system that David Fox and his team at Adobe built, Jim describes how data problems that require 10s of MongoDB or Cassandra instances can be solved with a small Neo4j cluster.
Lju Lazarevic is frequently asked how to import RDFS/OWL ontologies into Neo4j, and this week has written a blog post showing how to import the W3C Organizational Ontology using the neosemantics tools.
Azeem Azhar interviewed Emil on the latest episode of the Exponential View podcast.
They discuss the origin of graphs and graph databases, the ICIJ's Panama Papers investigation, and the types of problems that customers are solving with graphs.
In the 6th post in Jennifer Reif's series of posts showing how to build a full stack application with Spring and Neo4j, Jennifer create classes for another 4 areas of the graph data model – creator, event, series, and story.
In a code heavy post, Jennifer shows how to remove the majority of boilerplate code using Spring Data Neo4j and Lombok annotations.

INDIANAPOLIS — Football stadiums are rarely library-like atmospheres, but that's the vibe at the NFL combine. Mid-morning last Saturday, the loudest noise on the Lucas Oil Stadium turf was the sound of a battery-powered massager being used by the second group of quarterbacks and wide receivers to keep their leg muscles loose. On the first NFL stage of these players' football careers, the silence can be deafening.
Between the flexibility measurements and the vertical jump, one of the quarterbacks in the second group turned toward Mark Brunell.
"Did you run at the combine, too?" he asked.
The moral of the story: even if you whiff on these combine drills, you can still go on to have a 19-year NFL career. Not a bad way to cut the tension.
Here, the next class of NFL players is being watched by every talent evaluator in the league. They are all armed with binoculars, a stopwatch and a very critical eye. On the turf field, the prospects were led through a gauntlet of skills and fitness tests by a group of scouts and coaches that included Cleveland's David Lee and Chicago's Dave Ragone, quarterbacks coaches whose clubs may look to address a critical need with one of these players. Plus, a robust NFL Network crew was on the field to broadcast and dissect the players' every move.
But there's also a port in the storm—a group of retired players who work as part of the NFL's Legends Community, which was created in 2013 to connect the past generation of players with current and future ones. They embed for four days at the combine with the prospects at the position they once played, accompanying them to places where their agents and trainers can't go.
They were all in this spot once, and from there, their careers took very different paths: Brunell, a fifth-round pick by Green Bay, started for Jacksonville and Washington; Chad Pennington, who played 11 seasons after being drafted 18th overall by the Jets in 2000; and Ryan Leaf, whose career infamously flamed out just four years after being the second pick in 1998, one spot behind Peyton Manning. The MMQB watched the combine from their view, at field level and a few yards away, as the next generation of QBs auditioned for the NFL.
From l. to r., Ryan Leaf, Chad Pennington and Mark Brunnell.
There's no subtlety at the combine. The NFL-issued uniforms this year, navy blue shirts and shorts, had a message printed on the back of the neck: Make History. Another slogan—The Future Starts Here—was printed on the wraparound banners around the field.
It's not like a pro day, where players are in a familiar environment, with their teammates, on their own schedule. Adding to the pressure is the fact that players compete one at a time in each drill, so they watch in real time how they measure up against each other. By the time they return to the bench to change shoes between jumping and running and throwing, they can pull up a full analysis of how they've performed on their phones.
Starting in 2015, the NFL began pairing retired players with the prospects at the combine and having them act as guides to help the next generation of players through the pre-draft process and into the NFL. They meet at orientation on their first night in Indy, and over the next few days, the questions flow: How honest should we be in team interviews? What will our schedule be like in the NFL? How did you study film? Pennington's favorite piece of advice is that your notebook is your best friend. In other words, the only way to catch up to the veterans is to take a bunch of notes.
Leaf was sharing his story at Super Bowl 50 in San Francisco last year when he ran into Pennington, who welcomed him into the community of retired players. Leaf hadn't been back to the combine since 1998, nor had he watched it on TV. At his combine, he showed up about 20 pounds overweight and famously missed a meeting with the Colts, who were deciding between Leaf and Manning for the first overall pick. He was anxious about returning, and there were a few awkward moments—for example, running into the salary cap guru for the Chargers, whom he once battled to keep his full signing bonus after Leaf had been suspended by the team and fined for insubordination.
But as he shadowed Pennington, he saw the chance to put his experiences to use, rather than be embarrassed by them. As the quarterbacks stepped up for the vertical jump, Leaf cheered them on. "Explode!" he called out. He even pulled out his phone to take video. When Texas Tech's Patrick Mahomes, who is represented by Leaf's former agent, Leigh Steinberg, hit 30 inches, Leaf nodded approvingly. "He's hitting those little invisible lines scouts are looking for," he said. One of the quarterbacks asked him how high his vertical jump was, and Leaf told him 36 inches—but, he added, that was the only combine event in which he competed.
To anyone who asked, Leaf said his career didn't pan out how he wanted it to because he wasn't capable of working hard. He was offered mentors, as Steinberg gave Leaf phone numbers for fellow clients Steve Young, Troy Aikman and Drew Bledsoe, but when Leaf's career began to veer off course, he felt like he couldn't call them anymore.
There are two groups of quarterbacks and receivers at the combine, ordered alphabetically. The first group—Iowa's C.J. Beathard through Minnesota's Mitch Leidner, ran their 40-yard dashes at 9 a.m. and began the passing drills a little before 11. The second group, Colorado's Sefo Liufau through Cal's Davis Webb, watched from the sideline.
The throwing session takes about an hour. There are pocket movement drills, in which the quarterbacks move in different directions on command with the ball in their hands, and then fire a throw. There's the famous gauntlet drill, mainly for the receivers, who run across the field while alternately catching balls from opposite sides. What matters most is when the quarterbacks take three-step, five-step and seven-step drops as they go through the route tree, throwing slants, outs, ins, corner routes and the go, to the left and right sides.
Pennington watched from the sideline, standing shoulder to shoulder with Baylor's Seth Russell. "I don't want to mess you up," Pennington told Russell, but as the first group moved through the route tree, he called out when certain throws should be released. Efficient footwork, he reminded him, allows your throws to be on time and accurate. "Yes, sir," Russell said, nodding at each thing Pennington said. Later, Pennington suggested to Pitt's Nathan Peterman a footwork adjustment that could help him generate more power and velocity on his throws.
Every top quarterback threw at the combine this year, perhaps because there's no consensus No. 1, and many still have questions to answer among NFL evaluators. There's a big group in the first-round conversation—North Carolina's Mitchell Trubisky, Clemson's Deshaun Watson, Notre Dame's DeShone Kizer and Mahomes—but teams aren't sure any of them can be a Week 1 starter.
From l. to r., Notre Dame's DeShone Kizer, Clemson's Deshaun Watson, and North Carolina's Mitchell Trubisky.
Kizer threw with the first group and then came up to talk with Pennington afterward, walking through his footwork as they spoke. All week, Kizer had impressed teams by the way he handled himself in formal interviews, but he was a little inconsistent in his workout. Afterward, he described himself as being "drastic" on some throws to the left. Pennington reminded Kizer to be a passer rather than a thrower, a mindset he plans to take into the Notre Dame pro day later this month.
They spoke, for a few more minutes, about Watson's transition to the NFL. Stay in the pocket as long as you can, Pennington told him, and remain a passer as long as you can. That will create longevity in this league. And, remember to use your notebook.
Watson thanked Pennington for the encouragement. He shook his hand.
"Can I be in touch?" he asked.


By now all of you know the formidable Bugatti Chiron. Its makers believe its Veyron-derived W16 can power it to breaking the top speed record, but for now, it's waiting on better tyres. So how else to spend their time waiting for the right tyres to come around than working with LEGO on building an exact 1:1 replica!
Unlike the real Chiron, this is powered by over 2,300 LEGO Power Functions motors which are sat where the 8.0-litre W16 would normally be. Yes, you read that right. This car is actually drivable, but it doesn't boast the power levels that the original car does. This LEGO version only produced 5.3bhp – a little lower than the Chiron's 1,500. This means that it's not quite the performance car like its big brother, but it's made out of LEGO for God's sake!
It must be stressed that this car is made entirely of LEGO Technic – a feat I'm sure the guys from LEGO took a while to pull off. But how many pieces did it take? 1,000,000 in total, of which there were 339 different types. Oh, and the team used a LEGO Technic screwdriver to put together the engine after finding out a standard screwdriver had too much torque!
We love the detail on this build, especially the fully working spoiler/air brake. Let us know your favourite builds in the comments below!

Italian contrappuntista.
In both [the melodic inventor and the contrapuntist] this is to be ascribed more to the energies of genius, and to some natural and inborn talent than to craftsmanship.
Albrechtsberger was the famous contrapuntist of his day, and Beethoven derived much from his teaching; he does not appear to have impressed his master, however, with a high opinion of his powers, for the old man advised one of his pupils to have nothing to do with the young man from Bonn.
Story-Lives of Great Musicians
He studied at the University of his native city, choosing the law for his profession, but making music the occupation of his leisure hours, -- the well-known contrapuntist, Türk, being his instructor in musical theory and composition.
The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 05, No. 29, March, 1860
Albrechtsberger, one of these, was a famous contrapuntist of his time, and the student gained much from his teaching.
The World's Great Men of Music
Nothing could be more absurd: as well attempt to interpret Beethoven in terms of mathematical physics - as many a fatuous contrapuntist, indeed, has tried to do.
Prejudices : first series,
Who ever heard of an Irish epicure, an Irish _flâneur_, or, for that matter, an Irish contrapuntist?

Tokyo 2020 - Team Kenya annonced for the Olympic marathon
Pubblicato da Alberto Mazzucchelli in data gennaio 31, 2020
📸 bbc.com
Kipchoge and Kosgei lead Kenya's marathon selections for Olympic Games
Eliud Kipchoge will defend his Olympic title later this year, having been named on Kenya's team for the Tokyo 2020 Games. Meanwhile, world record-holder Brigid Kosgei and world champion Ruth Chepngetich feature on the women's team.
The World Athlete of the Year holds the world record with his 2:01:39 clocking from Berlin in 2018. The 35-year-old, who won the 2016 Olympic title in 2:08:44, has won 11 of his 12 career marathons, including victories in London, Berlin, Chicago, Rotterdam and Hamburg.
It will be Kipchoge's fourth Olympic appearance, following his 5000m bronze in 2004, 5000m silver in 2008 and marathon gold in 2016.
He is joined on the team by Lawrence Cherono, a two-time Amsterdam Marathon champion who also won in Boston and Chicago last year, and world bronze medallist Amos Kipruto, who has a best of 2:05:43.
Two-time Honolulu Marathon winner Titus Ekiru and 2016 world half marathon silver medallist Bedan Karoki have been named as reserves.
Kenya's squad for the women's marathon is just as strong.
Brigid Kosgei, who set a world record of 2:14:04 (pending ratification) at last year's Chicago Marathon, will make her Olympic debut. World champion Ruth Chepngetich, a 2:17:08 performer, will seek her second successive global title over the classic distance.
Vivian Cheruiyot will also aim to make history. Winner of the Olympic 5000m title in 2016, the 36-year-old is set to compete at her fifth Olympic Games, a record tally for a Kenyan athlete.
Frankfurt Marathon champion Valary Aiyabei and 2014 world half marathon bronze medallist Sally Chepyego are named as reserves.

How are you my lovely readers? I hope you're all well! And me? Oh I'm great because last Friday I went to my first blogger event *eep*! I was very lucky to attend the #SLBloggerBash in London organised by the wonderful Scarlett. I got a last minute invite the day before as there were a couple more spaces available and of course I said yes but I'm not going to lie to you, I was super nervous! I did end up feeling quite anxious meeting new people but of course I was just being silly because everyone was so friendly and chatty. The event was just amazing and I wanted to share it with you!
I'm going to apologise now for the quality of my photos… The one thing I forgot was my camera so I had to use my phone instead haha!
I arrived outside One Alfred Place earlyish to make sure I wasn't late but it wasn't till some lovely bloggers assured me that I was at the right place that I decided to walk in with them! When we got inside we were greeted by the Search Laboratory team and was told grab a drink and enjoy the event! I had a choice between wine and water; I chose the water haha! I'm sorry but I'm not a fan of wine so I stuck to what I knew I'd like.
So after getting my glass of water (because you know, I'm so adventurous like that!), I started to go around to the brands including Quiz Clothing, Bon Prix, Urban Outfitters, Sweet Pizzas and that's just a couple of them! They all had mini competitions and activities like the #QuizProm selfie where I wore a tiara (you can see my selfie here where I wore a tiara for the first time), the blogger bake sale which contained some pretty tasty looking treats and even some wine tasting! As I went around I tried to talk to as many bloggers as I can, I was very nervous so it did take me a while to start but once I did it just flowed. It was soo soo nice to meet bloggers that I've commented on a post of theirs or tweeted them during a Twitter chat and especially getting to know bloggers I haven't spoken to before now! What more could I ask for? I couldn't stay for the whole event as I had to get back but I managed to say goodbye to everyone including Scarlett!


"We've entered the era of lifelong learning," Barbara told the graduates. "Fortunately, Marian has given you a good foundation for lifelong learning. You are thorough readers and critical thinkers. You've studied a broad array of subjects. But let me suggest three additional skills that are essential today, what I call the ACEs of lifelong learning," she said.
In her introduction of the 2017 Distinguished Alumna, Sr. Lenore Pochelski, IHM, Head of School told the audience that Barbara was a strong student at Marian, involved in many activities. She was a member of the National Honor Society, the French Honor Society, and Model United Nations. She was also in Sodality and the Drama Club – and she began a lifelong path of volunteering – as a candy striper at St. Joseph Hospital in Pontiac.
"Throughout a diverse career in business, education, entrepreneurism, and non-profit management, Barbara has had one consistent goal – to support a positive quality of life for individuals and communities," Sr. Lenore said.
As an urban planner for General Motors, Barbara played a major role in the siting and development of three $500 million industrial plants, saving more than 3,000 manufacturing jobs. She later worked as an educator with other adjunct faculty at Madonna University to train care manager professionals who support older adults who want to continue living at home.
Barbara is currently retired from her paid career. However, she maintains her interest in leadership, advocacy, education, and learning as a volunteer. She has shared or still shares her time and talents with diverse groups such as SOAR, a life-long learning program affiliated with Wayne State University; Northville Meals on Wheels; AARP, the American Association of Retired Persons Michigan Chapter; the American Society on Aging, and Food Gatherers.
Currently concluding nine years of volunteerism at Marian, Barbara has been a member of the Board of Directors where she worked with the PR/Marketing Committee and the Strategic Planning Committee. She has chaired both the Advancement and the Funds Development Committees. In these roles, she has raised funds for the Marian Commons project, reenergized the discussion on endowment, and completed a new alumnae engagement plan.
"Barbara's leadership, her positive attitude, and her diplomacy skills have enabled her to successfully promote projects that will help Marian achieve its mission and secure its future as a strong and vibrant educational institution," Sr. Lenore said.

"MarVista continues its commitment to making an impact on children's programming with superb content," said Fernando Szew, CEO of MarVista Entertainment.
Hiroaki Taneoka, producer on Heroes: Legend of Battle Disks, added: "With MarVista's exceptional global footprint and expertise in the distribution of boy's action series, we are excited to partner with Fernando and his team to bring our engaging and visually captivating adventure series to young audiences around the world."

The editor-in-chief and the editorial staff shall take all reasonable measures to ensure that reviewers remain anonymous to authors before, during, and after the evaluation process, and authors remain anonymous to reviewers until the end of the review procedure.
DUTIES OF THE ADVISORY BOARD
The Advisory Board is an advisory body that actively contributes to the development of the journal. The tasks and duties of the Advisory Board include: supporting the development of the journal, promoting the journal, encouraging experts in population studies to get involved in the journal as authors and/or reviewers, and writing editorials, reviews, and commentaries.
Authors warrant that their manuscript is their original work, has not been published before (in any language), and is not under consideration for publication elsewhere. Parallel submission of the same paper to another journal constitutes misconduct and eliminates the manuscript from consideration by Stanovništvo.
Authors also warrant that the manuscript is not and will not be published elsewhere (after its publication in Stanovništvo) in any language without the consent of the publisher.
In case a submitted manuscript is the result of a research project, or its previous version has been presented at a conference in the form of an oral presentation (under the same or similar title), detailed information about the project or the conference where the work originated shall be provided in the Acknowledgements section prior to the list of references. A paper that has already been published in another journal cannot be reprinted in Stanovništvo.
It is the responsibility of each author to ensure that papers submitted to Stanovništvo are written in accordance with ethical standards. Authors affirm that the article contains no unfounded or unlawful statements and does not violate the rights of third parties. The publisher will not be held legally responsible should there be any claims for compensation.
A submitted manuscript should contain sufficient detail and references to permit reviewers and, subsequently, readers to verify the claims presented in it. The deliberate presentation of false claims is a violation of ethical standards.
Authors are exclusively responsible for the contents of their submissions and must make sure that they have permission from all involved parties to make the data public.
Authors wishing to include figures, tables, or other materials that have already been published elsewhere are required to obtain permission from the copyright holder(s). Any material received without such evidence will be assumed to originate from the authors.
Authors must make sure that only contributors who have significantly contributed to the submission are listed as authors and, conversely, that all contributors who have significantly contributed to the submission are listed as authors. If persons other than the authors were involved in important aspects of the research project and the preparation of the manuscript, their contribution should be acknowledged in a footnote or the Acknowledgments section.
Acknowledgment of sources
Authors are required to properly cite sources that have significantly influenced their research and their manuscript. Information received in a private conversation or correspondence with third parties in reviewing project applications, manuscripts, and similar materials must not be used without the express written consent of the information source.
Plagiarism, where someone assumes another person's ideas, words, or other creative expressions as one's own is a clear violation of scientific ethics. Plagiarism may also involve a violation of copyright law and may be punishable by legal action.
Plagiarism includes the following:
Copying word for word – or almost word for word – or purposely paraphrasing portions of another author's work without clearly indicating the source or marking the copied fragment (for example, using quotation marks);
Copying equations, figures, or tables from someone else's paper without properly citing the source and/or without permission from the original author or the copyright holder.
Please note that all submissions are thoroughly checked for plagiarism. Any paper that shows obvious signs of plagiarism will be automatically rejected and its authors will be temporarily forbidden from publishing in the journal.
In case plagiarism is discovered in a paper that has already been published by the journal, it will be retracted in accordance with the procedure described below in the retraction policy, and its authors will be temporarily forbidden from publishing in the journal.
Authors should disclose in their manuscript any financial or other substantive conflicts of interest that might have influenced the presented results or their interpretation.
When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in his/her own published work, it is the author's obligation to promptly notify the journal's editor-in-chief or publisher and cooperate with the editor-in-chief to retract or correct the paper.
REVIEWERS' RESPONSIBILITIES
Reviewers are required to provide written, competent, and unbiased feedback in a timely manner on the scholarly merits and scientific value of the manuscript.
Reviewers assess manuscript for their compliance with the profile of the journal, the relevance of the investigated topic and applied methods, and the originality and scientific relevance of information presented in the manuscript, as well as presentation style and scholarly apparatus.
Reviewers should alert the editor-in-chief to any well-founded suspicions or knowledge of possible violations of ethical standards by the authors. Reviewers should recognise relevant published works that have not been cited by the authors and alert the editor-in-chief to substantial similarities between a reviewed manuscript and any manuscript published or under consideration for publication elsewhere in the event they are aware of such. Reviewers should also alert the editor-in-chief to a parallel submission of the same paper to another journal in the event they are aware of such.
Reviewers must not have conflicts of interest with respect to the research, authors, and/or funding sources of the research. If such conflicts exist, reviewers must report them to the editor-in-chief without delay.
Any selected referee who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the editor-in-chief without delay.
Reviews must be conducted objectively. Personal criticism of the author is inappropriate. Reviewers should express their views clearly with supporting arguments.
Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. Reviewers must not use unpublished materials disclosed in submitted manuscripts without the express written consent of the authors. The information and ideas presented in submitted manuscripts shall be kept confidential and must not be used for personal gain.
PROCEDURES FOR DEALING WITH UNETHICAL BEHAVIOUR
Anyone may inform the editor-in-chief and/or editorial staff at any time of suspected unethical behaviour or any type of misconduct by providing the necessary information/evidence to start an investigation.
The editor-in-chief will consult with the editorial board on decisions regarding the initiation of an investigation.
During an investigation, any evidence should be treated as strictly confidential and only made available to those directly involved in investigating.
The accused will always be given the chance to respond to any charges made against them.
If it is adjudged at the end of the investigation that misconduct has occurred, then it will be classified as either minor or serious.
Minor misconduct
Minor misconduct will be addressed directly with those involved, without involving any other parties, e.g. by:
Communicating to authors/reviewers whenever a minor issue involving misunderstanding or misapplication of academic standards has occurred;
Sending a warning letter to an author or reviewer regarding minor misconduct.
Major misconduct
The editor-in-chief, in consultation with the editorial board and, when appropriate, further consultation with a small group of experts, should use all the evidence available to make any decision regarding the course of action to be taken. The possible outcomes are as follows (these can be applied separately or jointly):
Publication of a formal announcement or editorial describing the misconduct;
Informing the author's (or reviewer's) head of department or employer of any misconduct by means of a formal letter;
The formal, announced retraction of publications from the journal in accordance with the retraction policy (see below);
A ban on submissions from an individual for a defined period;
Referring the case to a professional organisation or legal authority for further investigation and action.
When dealing with unethical behaviour, the editorial staff will rely on the guidelines and recommendations provided by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE): http://publicationethics.org/resources/.
RETRACTION POLICY
Legal limitations of the publisher, copyright holder, or author(s), infringements of professional ethical codes such as multiple submissions, bogus claims of authorship, plagiarism, fraudulent use of data, or any major misconduct require the retraction of an article. Occasionally, a retraction can also be used to correct errors in submission or publication. The main reason for withdrawal or retraction is to correct the mistake while preserving the integrity of science; it is not to punish the author.
Standards for dealing with retractions have been developed by many library and scholarly bodies, and this practice has been adopted for article retraction by Stanovništvo: in the electronic version of the retraction note, a link is made to the original article. In the electronic version of the original article, a link is made to the retraction note where it is clearly stated that the article has been retracted. The original article remains unchanged, save for a watermark on the PDF indicating on each page that it is "retracted".
Stanovništvo is an open-access journal. All articles can be downloaded free of charge and distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 Licence.
Adapt — remix, transform, and build upon the material.
The licensor cannot revoke these freedoms as long as you follow the licence terms.
Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the licence, and indicate if changes have been made. You may do so in any reasonable manner, but not in any way that suggests the licensor endorses you or your use.
No additional restrictions — You may not apply legal terms or technological measures that legally restrict others from doing anything the licence permits.
The journal does not charge any fees for submission, reviewing, and production.
SELF-ARCHIVING POLICY
Stanovništvo allows authors to deposit the author's post-print (accepted) version and the publisher's version/PDF in institutional repositories and non-commercial subject-based repositories, or to publish it on the author's personal website (including social networking sites, such as ResearchGate, Academia.edu, etc.) and/or departmental website in accordance with the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0, at any time after publication. Full bibliographic information (authors, article title, journal title, volume, issue, pages) about the original publication must be provided and a link must be made to the article's DOI.
Once the manuscript is accepted for publication, the author(s) shall transfer the copyright to the publisher. If the submitted manuscript is not accepted for publication by the journal, all rights shall be retained by the author(s).
Authors grant to the publisher the following rights to the manuscript, including any supplemental material and any parts, extracts, or elements thereof:
the right to reproduce and distribute the manuscript in printed form, including print-on-demand;
the right to produce prepublications, reprints, and special editions of the manuscript;
the right to translate the manuscript into other languages;
the right to reproduce the manuscript using photomechanical or similar means including, but not limited to photocopy, and the right to distribute these reproductions;
the right to reproduce and distribute the manuscript electronically or optically on all data carriers or storage media – especially in machine-readable/digitised form on data carriers such as hard drive, CD-ROM, DVD, Blu-ray Disc (BD), MiniDisc, data tape – and the right to reproduce and distribute the article via these data carriers;
the right to store the manuscript in databases, including online databases, and the right of transmission of the manuscript in all technical systems and modes;
the right to make the manuscript available to the public or to closed user groups on individual demand, for use on monitors or other readers (including e-books), and in printable form for the user, either via the internet, other online services, or via internal or external networks.
The views expressed in the published works do not express the views of the editor-in-chief and editorial staff of Stanovništvo. Authors take legal and moral responsibility for the ideas expressed in their articles. The publisher shall have no liability should any claims for damages be issued. The publisher will not be held legally responsible should there be any claims for compensation.

Las Vegas Author Brings Parents' Love Story, WWII History To The Stage
By Nikole Robinson Carroll
Published February 25, 2015 at 12:36 PM PST
Following the end of World War II, the U.S. became more racially integrated. One example of this change was the acceptance of African-American soldiers as fighter pilots.
The Tuskegee Airmen are immortalized today as heroes and pioneers for civil rights in America. One of the first Tuskegee Airmen was James Bernard Knighten. His daughter, Las Vegas author Kim Russell, shows his human side in her book and play Tuskegee Love Letters.
The play is a result of years of work by Russell to collect and curate letters written by Knighten and his wife, Luana. The couple's correspondence documents their relationship - as well as a considerable amount of American history - from 1939 to 1956.
When Russell was just a few months old, her mother, Luana Knighten, died at age 30.
"I never knew my mother," Russell told KNPR's State of Nevada. "This was my way - her way - for me to meet her.... and to hear her voice."
Tuskegee Love Letterscomes to local libraries the next two weekends in celebration of the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II and the 16th anniversary of its opening night in Las Vegas:
Saturday, February 28 at 7 p.m. - West Charleston Library Lecture Hall, 6301 W. Charleston Blvd.
Sunday, March 1 at 2 p.m. Windmill Library Auditorium 7060 W. Windmill Ln.
Saturday, March 7 at 7 p.m. West Las Vegas Library Theatre 951 W. Lake Mead Blvd.

Casey Affleck on Sexual Harassment Allegations: I Apologize for 'Unprofessional' Behavior
WENN/Guillermo Proano
The Oscar-winning actor addresses the allegations for the first time, admitting that he 'contributed' to an 'unprofessional environment' on the set of his film 'I'm Still Here'.
AceShowbiz - Actor Casey Affleck has finally opened up about the harassment drama that forced him to stay away from the Oscars.
The star, who picked up his first Academy Award last year (17) for his role in Manchester By the Sea, withdrew from presenting the Best Actress Award at the 2018 ceremony, because he didn't want to become distraction.
Affleck has been criticised by many of his peers in Hollywood over a settlement and non disclosure agreement that followed allegations of inappropriate behaviour towards two women, who worked on his film I'm Still Here.
He was sued for making "unwelcome sexual advances" on the set, but he has always maintained he did nothing wrong.
Now, in his first major interview since his decision not to attend the Oscars, Ben Affleck's brother has admitted that he "contributed" to an "unprofessional environment" on the set of the 2010 film.
"I tolerated that kind of behaviour from other people and I wish that I hadn't," he tells the Associated Press, "and I regret a lot of that. I really did not know what I was responsible for as the boss. I don't even know if I thought of myself as the boss. But I behaved in a way and allowed others to behave in a way that was really unprofessional. And I'm sorry."
"I wish I had found a way to resolve things in a different way. I hate that. I had never had any complaints like that made about me before in my life and it was really embarrassing and I didn't know how to handle it and I didn't agree with everything, the way I was being described, and the things that were said about me, but I wanted to try to make it right, so we made it right in the way that was asked at the time.
"We all agreed to just try to put it behind us and move on with our lives, which I think we deserve to do, and I want to respect them as they've respected me and my privacy."
As for his decision to stay away from the Oscars, Casey adds, "I think it was the right thing to do just given everything that was going on in our culture at the moment. And having two incredible women go present the best actress award felt like the right thing."
Jennifer Lawrence and Jodie Foster replaced him during the ceremony.

It's an anxious and nervous day for all the Girls and Boys this week, as the A-LEVEL results are here. Introduced to the UK in 1951, the A-LEVEL was to replace the Higher School Certificate. A-levels had various modifications over the years have remained the primary qualification for university-bound school leavers in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
1. Assessment will be mainly by exam, with other types of evaluation used only where they are needed to test essential skills.
2. A-levels will be assessed at the end of the course, typically after two years. The courses will no longer be divided into modules, and there will be no exams in January.
3. The content for the new A-levels has been reviewed and updated. Universities played a more significant role in this for the new qualifications than they did previously.
After revising, taking the exams and then relaxing over the summer, this is the week all their hard work has hopefully paid off!!!
Masterflex would like to take this opportunity to wish you all the best of luck, and we hope you get the results you want to for. The next decision will be what to do next????
