    "This biographical history tells the story of an American family in conflict and four brothers' attempts to regain the prestigious position their family once held. Loaded with never-before-published photos and little-known facts, this probing character study examines the men, the myths, and the legends of the Outlaw Youngers. The Youngers - Bob, Cole, Jim, and John - tested the boundaries of the violent and turbulent post-Civil War society in which they lived. The author investigates events from the Border and Civil Wars, details of the Youngers' attempts at legitimate ranching in Texas, and the frequent and often brutal murders and robberies. Using never-before-published accounts from Jim and Bob Younger, the author presents a new theory regarding the James-Younger gang and the actual Younger involvement - a theory which opposes the one held for over 100 years. She also offers insights into the Northfield robbery and gives reasons why the Youngers' parole was delayed"-

    The thesis is mainly the use of code mixing between Thai and English language in social media networking (Facebook) by Thai Youngers. Code mixing is mixing two or more languages and only the change some of elements such as word and phrase in a sentence and usually happens in informal situation and mixing two languages or more languages in one situation. The researcher wants to analyze the use of code mixing by Thai Youngers in social media networking especially Facebook because the researcher wants to know the kinds, the forms, and the reasons of using code mixing by Thai Youngers as users. The technique of collecting the data is observation and documentation. The researcher used qualitative observation because the researcher needs to observe the language behaviors; code mixing by Thai Youngers account. The samples of this study are thirty Thai Youngers. The results of this study shows 1) the kinds of code mixing, 2) the forms of code mixing, and 3) the reasons of code mixing used by Thai Youngers. There are three kinds of code-mixing used by Thai Youngers in Facebook; words insertion, phrase insertion, and hybrid. There are two forms of code-mixing; code mixing in the form word and code mixing in the form phrase used by Thai Youngers in social media networking (Facebook). The researcher found five reasons of code mixing that consist of (a) showing personal habit, (b) matching with the situation, (c) conveniences, (d) making more simple and familiar, and (e) following the trend

    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
