Article provides a biographical tribute to the life and contributions of Thomas Gilcrease, an oil company owner of Muscogee (Creek) descent who collected objects related to American Indian culture. Martin Wenger discusses the establishment of the Thomas Gilcrease Foundation and the Thomas Gilcrease Institute of American History and Art of Tulsa
The potential affordances of enterprise wikis for creating community in research networks
In this paper, we describe some of the affordances, (the specific enabling features or characteristics), of an enterprise wiki to meet the needs of a developing community of practice. The Social Innovation Network (SInet) is a nascent research network that spans the social sciences, education and commerce at the University of Wollongong. It will use the enterprise wiki software Confluence to assist in the development of communities of practice across its groups and subgroups. This paper, describes some of the features of the software and how it might be used to perform some of the common activities identified by Wenger (nd) as contributing to the development of community

Savary, BP 47870, F-21078 Dijon Cedex, FranceThe Dijon group has developed powerful techniques based on group theory and tensorial formalism}, {\bf 228}, 620--634 (2003)} in order to analyze and simulate absorption and Raman spectra of molecules with various symmetries. Software packages and databases} implementing these tools have been created. This concerns: XY (tetrahedral, STDS package)}, {\bf 59}, 471--480 (1998).}, XY (octahedral, HTDS package)}, {bf 66}, 1--16 (2000).}, XYZ ( symmetry, TDS package)}, {\bf 93}, 429--446 (2005).}, XYZ ( symmetry, TDS package)}, {\bf 74}, 621--636 (2002).} and XY ( symmetry and TDS package)}, in press (2005).} species. These packages all consist in FORTRAN 77 programs called by UNIX scripts. We present here a user-friendly java-based interface, called XTDS, which allows to interactively build and launch spectrum calculation or analysis jobs using any of the above-mentioned packages. This software runs on UNIX systems (UNIX, Linux or Mac OS X workstations). It allows the treatment of complex spectroscopic problems, including molecules with complex polyads, like methane for instance. The user can define the polyad scheme for the molecule under consideration. All interaction terms up to a given order of the development are automatically determined for both the Hamiltonian or transition moments (dipole moment or polarizability). Least-square fits of experimental data can also be run interactively
Managing today's news media : audience first /
The business of journalism is in the midst of massive change. Managing Today's News Media: Audience First offers practical solutions on how to cope with and adapt to the evolving media landscape. News media experts Samir Husni, Debora Halpern Wenger, and Hank Price introduce a forward-looking framework for understanding why change is occurring and what it means to the business of journalism. Central to this new paradigm is a focus on the audience. The authors introduce "The 4Cs Strategy" to describe how customers, control, choice, and change are all part of a strategy for successful media organizations. Every chapter in the book relates to one or more of these four key principles: * Customer - Each platform must offer a unique experience to the customer. ...Includes bibliographical references (pages 203-210) and index.The business of journalism is in the midst of massive change.

Drama and history: Thomas Becket as portrayed by Eliot and Anouilh
The story of Thomas Becket has long captivated men\u27s imaginations: two dramatists, T.S. Eliot and Jean Anouilh, have utilized that history as a basis for dramas. Through Becket\u27s story, Eliot and Anouilh present \u27indiscussable truths\u27: for Eliot, it is that Becket is the epitome of Christian freedom which comes only through total submission to a Divine will; for Anouilh, it si that each man must determine his own salvation in an isolated universe
