Scott T. Carey
No full textScott T. Carey, a former Palo Alto mayor and well-known figure in Silicon Valley real estate, died on Aug. 11 at his home in Portola Valley surrounded by his family, following a brief illness. He was 82. He was born on March 11, 1933, to Paul T. and Stanleigh Carey, who were an artist and pianist, respectively. He grew up in Berkeley, graduated from Berkeley High School and earned a bachelor's degree from the University of California, Berkeley. He later studied at the law school there at Boalt Hall, receiving his law degree in 1961. From 1955 to 1957, he served as a pilot in the U.S. Air Force and attained the rank of captain. After graduating from law school, he began practicing in San Francisco and continued in Palo Alto from 1962 to 1968. In 1976, he was admitted to practice before the U.S. Supreme Court. In 1968, he joined the residential real estate brokerage of Cornish & Carey, which had a small commercial practice in Palo Alto. During his many years at the company - for which he served as president, CEO and later chairman - it grew into one of the area's most prominent commercial real estate brokerages, now based in Santa Clara under the name Newmark Cornish & Carey. From 1975 to 1979, Carey served on the Palo Alto City Council, including a term as mayor. Considered an establishment member of the council, he was instrumental in winning council support for the $7.5 million acquisition of 500 acres in the lower foothills - which is now the core of the Arastradero Open Space Preserve. In addition, he served as an organizer and attorney for the Economic Opportunity Council of Northern Santa Clara County, a member of the Santa Clara County Land Use Commission, a member of the board of Woodside Priory School and, more recently, as an advisory board member to the Berkeley Center for Law, Business and the Economy. According to his family, he was known as a strong public speaker, who could win over audiences with his humor. His many passions included family, law, politics, Bay Area sports and

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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
