George Hendricks Interview, 24 October 2013
No full textGeorge Hendricks was born in Bessemer, Alabama, in 1942 and moved to Cleveland at age 6. His first major performing band was called the Sahib\u27s, which opened for many Motown artists, recorded on the Tri Phi label, and played regularly at Gleason\u27s. Hendricks describes the rhythm and blues music scene in Cleveland in the late 1950s and early 1960s. He was drafted into the Army and served in the Vietnam War from 1964 to 1968. He describes the shift of the epicenter of black entertainment from the East 55th-Woodland area to the Euclid-East 105th area by the late 1960s. He also tells stories about navigating the color line on the West Side of Cleveland in the 1960s. Throughout his interview, he makes apt comparisons between the Cleveland scene and that in other places, especially Harlem and Las Vegas. He expresses fondness and nostalgia for a time when musical acts and club owners held to high professional standards and finds much modern music wanting. Hendricks also describes the transition from club-booked music acts to professional bookers like Alan Freed. Hendricks performs in an R&B group called the Hesitations

Thomas A. Hendricks birthplace
No full textVice President Thomas A. Hendricks was born at this site on September 7, 1819, near Zanesville, Ohio. While still a baby, Thomas' family moved to Indiana and he grew up and rose to prominence in the Hoosier State. Hendricks served consecutively in the Indiana State Legislature and the U.S. House of Representatives during the late 1840s and the 1850s. From 1863 to1869, he was one of Indiana's U.S. Senators. Hoosiers elected Hendricks to serve as Indiana's sixteenth governor in 1872, making him the first Democrat to win that office in a northern state after the Civil War. In 1876, vice-presidential candidate Hendricks and his running mate, Samuel Tilden, lost the presidential election to Ohioan Rutherford B. Hayes. Hendricks joined Grover Cleveland on the Democratic party's presidential ticket in 1884 and won. Hendricks died in 1885, after serving only eight months as vice president
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
