No full textSent hams and shad to Marianna via Ringgold Station. Peggy is well. Mr. Botts returned to White Sulphur Springs, but didn’t see Barbara there. Betty Blair to marry W. Mosely of Buckingham County. Dr. Cabell engaged to Miss Peggy, a music teacher. Mrs. Caskie, wife of Congressman John Caskie, a debased drunkard” and sister of Marmaduke Johnson died. Rumors she was brutally treated by her husband supported by Dr. Peterkin sermon at funeral.
Heard Judge Douglas speak on the Capital square and thinks he made a “forcible speech.” Mr. Botts is going to speak in Pittsylvania later in the month. Hearing that Mr. Gatewood was preaching at St. Paul’s, went to worship at St. James. Heard Dr. Peterkin preach for first time. Disappointed. Mr. Minnegerode and Mr. Woodbridge “taking water in the mountains.” Mr. Eyler returning to summer home in Hampton. Mrs. Semple returned to Brooklyn in better health. Little news from Williamsburg. Mr. Thomas Lindsey’s son died, Mr. Bunting is better. From Mss.

Linear wave propagation in traumatic brain injury
No full textThe research presented in this thesis has focussed on two forms of traumatic brain injury (TBI) that are both major causes of mortality: Diffuse axonal injury (DAI0 and acute subdural haematoma (ASDH).In a new approach to the formulation of injury criteria, the use of frequency response functions (BRF) to calculate the strain in the corpus callosum from rigid-body skull motions has been justified with a validated, 2D finite element (FE) model. The strain response in the corpus callosum remains linear to within 13% for coronal-plane rotational acceleration up to 12 krad.s-2, well beyond the threshold for DAI in this plane. Peak strains in the corpus callosum, calculated with BRF, vary by a factor of 1.5 for a sequence of half-sine waveforms of equal head injury criterion (HIC), for pulse durations between 8 ms and 25 ms. Thus, the HIC and BRF approaches can give different predictions of injury outcome. The major advantage of the BRF approach is the speed of injury prediction, which is of the order of 104 times faster than direct FE analysis for the example given.Two analytical models have been used to investigate TBI from sharp blows to the head where skull deformations and local contact phenomena prevail. A half-space model has shown that the shear properties of the brain may be varied over a considerable range with respect to typical human values with no effect on pressure response. The same conclusion is obtained from a 2D coronal plane FE model, and from a two-layer analytical model that incorporates a representation of the cerebrospinal fluid and trabeculae. The two-layer model has demonstrated that even the smallest amount of elasticity in the subarachnoid space (6 Pa) causes significant coupling between the skull and brain.</p
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
