No full textThomas N. Barry, known as the zTrivia Many at the Palo Alto Senior Center, passed away August 20, 2015. Barry was age 95. Barry was born in Chicago, Illinois, August 16, 1920, the son of a Greek immigrant father and a Vermont school teacher mother, a Phi Beta Kappa. Barry was always proud to have been a newspaper boy for the Chicago Daily News while attending Carl Schurz High School. Upon graduation from high school, Barry enrolled in the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) June 1938, and was sent by train to Jordan Valley, Oregon, a small southeastern town of cattle ranches, cowboys, sage brush and rattlesnakes. He loved his year in Oregon, an exciting time for a city boy. From 1939 to 1942 Barry was employed as a produce manager in one of the First National Tea Co. selfservice stores in Chicago. On May 7, 1942, Barry enlisted in the US Army in Chicago, at age 21, and was assigned to the 8th Armored Division, in Fort Knox, Kentucky. In September of 1942, he was assigned to the newly formed 13th Armored Division, Camp Beale, California, and served as a platoon sergeant in California and later in Camp Bowie, Texas. In January 1945, the 13th Armored Division was shipped overseas to France. Sergeant Barry was a combat infantry platoon sergeant in Germany in April and May 1945. He was nominated for a Bronze Star for action under fire in southern Germany in April 1945. In May of 1945, Barry was wounded in Simbach, Germany the bullet penetrating Sergeant Barry's bladder, resulting in two months in German and French and American hospitals. After a 1945 Army discharge, Barry was employed for two years as an auto insurance underwriter in Chicago, and as a special insurance agent in Minneapolis. In 1948 Barry attended The University of Oregon where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Political Science and a Master of Science in General Studies.

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
