    The Sullivan mine was discovered by Patrick Sullivan and three associates in 1895, and during the next year was bonded to Col. Redpath and Judge Turner of Spokane, Washington. The Sullivan Group Mining Company of Spokane was later formed to take over the property, and a smelter, which was designed to treat ore from the mine, was completed in 1903 at Marysville, B.C. [...

    Patrick Grainville : auteur de la F/francophonie ou comment la F/francophonie invente le francophone africain

    No full text
    Qu’est-ce que la F/francophonie pour le romancier français qui utilise l’Afrique francophone comme trame de son histoire ? La présente étude s’est attelée à démontrer qu’un auteur tel que Patrick Grainville est un pur produit de la F/francophonie dans la mesure où il regroupe toutes les caractéristiques et les contradictions de cette institution à la fois politique et culturelle. Ses oeuvres ressassent des antiennes coloniales sous de nouveaux apparats et continue volontairement de minorer les langues populaires issues de l’espace francophone africain. Il sert d’instrument de géopolitique, de vulgarisation de la vision que la France a de l’Africain francophone. Abstract What is F/Francophonie for the French novelist who uses Francophone Africa as the framework of his story? This study attempts to demonstrate that an author such as Patrick Grainville is a pure product of the F/Francophonie insofar as he brings together all the characteristics and contradictions of this institution, both political and cultural. His works reiterate colonial antiphons under new guises and voluntarily continue to undermine the popular languages of the African Francophone space. It serves as an instrument of geopolitics, of popularization of the vision that France has of the francophone African

    Patrick Geddes: Synthetic Vision

    No full text
    Among the founders of the science of town planning at the beginning of the twentieth century, Scotsman Patrick Geddes introduced methods of investigation commensurate with other sciences. A biologist, trained by Thomas Huxley, Geddes borrowed the practices of the microscopical laboratory in creating the Outlook Tower in Edinburgh, Scotland which served as a model for an approach to the study of cities. His method was like that of a field botanist studying a species, and assumed an interdependent relationship between place, work and folk. Embracing the evolutionary theory of Charles Darwin, Geddes proposed subtle town planning interventions as a means by which cities could adaptively respond to change over time. He advocated the employ of a graphic device, which he called his "thinking machines," and which served as a paradigmatic strategy to forge new relationships within sets of ideas. Such an approach aligned him with the taxonomic strategies in practice in the formation of museum collections and display of the nineteenth century. This work examines the archival evidence of the principles underlying Geddes' methods in the hope that they may be recovered in contemporary town planning.Ph. D

    Measuring industry-science links through inventor-author relations: A profiling method

    No full text
    In this pilot study we examine the performance of text-based profiling in recovering a set of validated inventor-author links. In a first step we match patents and publications solely based on their similarity in content. Next, we compare inventor and author names on the highest ranked matches for the occurrence of name matches. Finally, we compare these candidate matches with the names listed in a validated set of inventor-author names. Our text-based profile methodology performs significantly better than a random matching of patents and publications, suggesting that text-based profiling is a valuable complementary tool to the name searches used in previous studies.innovation; industry-science links; text-based profiling;

Bratton, US Army War College director of South Asian Studies, reviews Grant F. Rhode’s “valuable contribution to [the] literature” that “[brings] attention to many of Eurasia’s often-forgotten maritime powers and conflicts.” Bratton highlights the particular value of Rhode’s “excellent” case studies “that deserve attention” and explains the book’s utility for policymakers while also providing a thoughtful critique of the book’s framing devices.https://press.armywarcollege.edu/parameters_bookshelf/1067/thumbnail.jp
