Letter from Beach Police Magistrate Thor G. Plomasen to Attorney General Langer Regarding the Ole Skrukrud Case, December 18, 1919
Letter dated December 18, 1919 from Beach Police Magistrate Thor G. Plomasen to North Dakota (ND) Attorney General William Langer regarding the Ole Skrukrud Case. Plomasen gives an overview of the case, noting it is a whiskey case uncovered by Langer\u27s Flying Squadron, and that Skrukrud was arrested for offering to sell liquor. Plomasen notes that the court date has been moved several times due to the non-appearance of both parties. Plomasen argues that the defendant should either have his hearing or it should be dismissed if there is no evidence, so as to stop wasting money prolonging the case. A handwritten note at the bottom of the letter states that Mr. Skrukrud was admitted to bail of $2,000.

Plomasen in response to Plomasen\u27s letter of December 18, 1919 regarding the Ole Skrukrud case. Langer writes that it is his and Assistant Attorney General Edward Cox\u27s understanding that the defendant wants to plead guilty and that Cox will take care of the issue one way or the other immediately.

Habitat types and lichen conservation in the Alps – Perspectives from a case study in the Stelvio National Park (Italy).
As a basis for promoting a lichen-oriented conservation strategy in alpine protected areas, this case study in the Stelvio National Park aims at comparing lichen communities of five habitats in terms of species richness and composition. Data are derived from an inventory in seven plots with five habitats each: (1) rural sites, (2) montane Picea abies-dominated forests, (3) subalpine Larix decidua/Pinus cembra-dominated forests, (4) small streams on siliceous bedrock, and (5) alpine mosaic of natural grasslands and siliceous rocks. In the analysis, three groups of species were considered: (1) all species, (2) species which in Italy are restricted to the Alps (referred to as "Alpic"), and (3) nationally rare species. A total of 428 species were found, including 79 Alpic and 59 nationally rare species. Substantial differences in the richness and composition of lichen species were found among the five habitats. In a conservation perspective, results indicated two main issues that should be considered: (1) each of the five habitat types contributes to lichen diversity by hosting different lichen assemblages and a pool of associated species and (2) forests managed by non-intensive practices and alpine mosaics should be prioritized in lichen conservation efforts, since they are the richest in Alpic and rare species
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
Letter from Assistant Attorney General Cox to Beach Police Magistrate Thor G. Plomasen Regarding the Ole Skrukrud Case, December 22, 1919
Letter dated December 22, 1919 from North Dakota (ND) Assistant Attorney General Edward Cox to Beach Police Magistrate Thor G. Plomasen in response to Plomasen\u27s letter of December 18, 1919 to William Langer regarding the Ole Skrukrud Case. Cox writes that he has spoken with all parties and that Mr. Skrukrud will plead guilty and that Attorney Dawson will enter this plea with Judge Crawford soon. Cox also notes that he does not view any complaints about Dawson or his office are justified and that everyone is doing their jobs proficiently.

Variations on the Author
“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
We 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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
