Russell George Muskus portrait
This photograph from the Ohio Penitentiary in Columbus is of 33-year-old laborer Russell Muskus. His formal attire suggests that the photograph was taken during his trial or sentencing. Muskus, convicted of murdering a man in Canton, was the 295th individual to be executed via the electric chair in Ohio. The caption at the bottom reads: “No. 295 Russell George Muskus Stark County, Ohio, Legally Electrocuted July 9, 1954, for the Murder of George LeMasters.”
In 1885 the Ohio Penitentiary in Columbus, Ohio, became the location for all executions, which previously took place in the various county seats. In 1896 the Ohio General Assembly mandated that electrocution replace hanging as the form of capital punishment. The Ohio Penitentiary regularly offered tours as well as souvenir photographs and postcards of the building and prisoners on death row.
A total of 315 prisoners, both men and women, were executed in the electric chair known as “Old Sparky” between 1897 and 1963
Alien Registration- Russell, George (Fort Kent, Aroostook County)

[Letter] 1924 December 18, Dublin [to] Alan Dillon Murtogh / George Russell [George William Russell].
The letter is typed on the _Irish Statesman_\u27s Editorial Office letterhead. In addition to editing the _Irish Statesman_, Russell was a poet, Nationalist leader, and essayist who also wrote under the pseudonym "AE."Russell expresses regret that he cannot publish the article the contributor has sent; were he to do so, he would have "all the clerics in Ireland, who are already attacking the Statesman, frothing over..." The resulting controversy would injure the Statesman\u27s usefulness "in those objects for which it was started." If he were financing his own paper, Russell declares that he would be interested in the questions Murtogh raises; as that is not the case, it may be "unjustifiable to give my many enemies another handle to use against me.
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
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
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
