    This letter was sent from William E. Hoy to Mr. Ralph Elliot Lin Weber and is dated July 8, 1943. The letter recounts information about the only baseball game where Hoy, a deaf athlete, was at-bat against Taylor, also a deaf athlete. Mentioned in the letter is a typewritten play by play of the same game, copied from the Enquirer of May 17, 1902. Also included is an envelope and newspaper articles. The envelope, from International League Information, is addressed to Ralph E Lin Weber and has handwritten lists of players of N.Y. and Cincinnati. The newspaper articles are from the Dayton Daily News and the Cincinnati Enquirer and feature pictures of William E. Hoy, the author of the letter

    (A) New cis-regulatory lin-3 alleles with deleted E-boxL and NHR or NHR and E-boxR. (B) Quantification of vulval induction in these new mutants. Note the complete absence of any induction in the recovered lin-3 alleles (n>30). Scorings of lin-3(1417) animals are the same as those reported in Fig 5 and are used here to indicate that this mutation leads to vulval hypo-induction rather than no induction at all. (C-D) smFISH in lin-3(mf72) (C) and N2 (D) animals. Green spots correspond to lin-3 transcripts and red spots to lag-2 that is used as an anchor cell marker. Blue is DAPI staining of nuclei. Note the absence of lin-3 expression in the anchor cell in the lin-3(mf72) mutant animal. Absence of lin-3 signal in the anchor cell was also confirmed for the other lin-3 alleles.</p

    over no things : a film by Yen-Chao Lin

    "When did you start to forget? Is it possible not to start to forget? over no things is a poetic visual approach to the passage of time and the melancholic nostalgia of aging. With meditative contemplation, the experience of cinematic time is decelerated and romanticized through slow moving frames and minimalist still tableaux. An emotive piece which communicates through absence." -- DVD's back cover

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The 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

    Singaporemma wulongensis Lin & Li, 2014 Figures 6E–e, 7F Singaporemma wulongensis Lin & Li, 2014: 46, figs 7–9, 17, 20B Examined material. Holotype &male;, paratypes 8&male; and 20&female; (NHMSU), CHINA: Chongqing, Wulong, Tudi Town, Tiansheng Village, Xiaodong Cave, 29°31.853'N, 107°50.817'E, altitude 1050 m, 17 October 2010, L. Dou and Y. Lin leg. Diagnosis. Male of S. wulongensis differs from males of all other congeners with the exception of S. bifurcata by the furcate embolus (Fig. 6E–e vs. Fig. 6A–D, 6a–d, 6G–H, 6g –h); it differs from male of S. bifurcata by the narrower, longer oval bulb, the embolus with two equilong tip branches, and the embolus starts from the submesialback surface of bulb, but the embolus of S. bifurcata with asymmetric branches that origins from prolateral surface of bulb (Fig. 6E–e vs. Fig. 6F–f). Female of S. wulongensis seems also close to S. bifurcata having a similar vulval structure, but it can be distinguished by the lager “ω”-shaped inner vulval plate, and the longer, weakly sclerotized central process (Fig. 7F vs. Fig. 7D). Description. See Lin & Li, 2014: 46. Distribution. China (Chongqing) (Fig. 10).Published as part of Yan, Fanhu & Lin, Yucheng, 2018, A review of the spider genus Singaporemma (Araneae: Tetrablemmidae), with the description of a new species, pp. 329-346 in Zootaxa 4392 (2) on pages 344-345, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4392.2.6, http://zenodo.org/record/119544

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    (A) Genomic structure of lin-2 and frm-3 locus, mutant allele characterization, and protein architecture for LIN-2 and FRM-3. The whole promoter region of lin-2a and part of the kinase domain of LIN-2A is deleted in the e1309 mutants. The FERM domain in both frm-3a and frm-3b is deleted in the gk585 mutants. Syb1019 and syb1036 are stop codons in lin-2 and frm-3 that inactivate the expression of lin-2a and lin-2b, and frm-3a and frm-3b. (E, F) Locomotion speed is reduced by the loss of LIN-2 and FRM-3. Representative trajectories of locomotion in wild type (E) and mean locomotion speed in wild type, lin-2(e1309), frm-3(gk585), lin-2(syb1019), frm-3(syb1036), and lin-2(e1309);frm-3(gk585) mutants. To measure locomotion speed, young adult animals were washed with a drop of PBS and then transferred to fresh NGM plates with no bacterial lawn (30 worms per plate). Worm movement recordings (under room temperature 22°C) were started 10 min after the worms were transferred. A 2 min digital video of each plate was captured at 3.75 Hz frame rate by WormLab System (MBF Bioscience). Average speed and tracks were generated for each animal using WormLab software. To confirm the repeatability of the data, the locomotion speed was measured in two independent experiments in two days. For each mutant, around 10–40 animals were analyzed in one experiment. Significance was tested for each experiment. Data are mean ± SEM (**, p p < 0.001 when compared to wild type; n.s., non-significant; one-way ANOVA). The number of worms analyzed for each genotype is indicated in the bar.</p
