Open Science is an umbrella term for a wide range of (proposed) structural changes in the ways science is done. It ranges from Open Access publishing, publishing manuscripts, open peer review and pre-registration of analyses, to open data, open protocols/methods and open source, as well as methods to make data and code Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR). Persistent Identifiers for research objects make such an ecosystem of Open Science tools work. Some include performing science in public and easier ways to collaborate in Open Science. Also involving more people in science is generally included, as well as better methods for the assessment of science, which is the foundation of most problems in science.
This Open Science list is open, just like Open Science itself. What is delightful is rather subjective, because of the background of the initiators the list has started quite nerdy and focussed on infrastructure and scholarly communication. Please help and add more information by adding an "issue" or making a pull request (both options in menu above), especially on topics around reproducibility, meta-science and outreach, where this list is weaker.

On October 31, 2007, J.K. Rowling (author of the widely popular Harry Potter series of books) along with Warner Brothers Entertainment Inc. (the producer of the Harry Potter movies) filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against RDR Books (“RDR”), a book publisher, and John Does 1-10 for copyright and trademark infringement. See Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. et al v. RDR Books et al, Case No. 1:2007-cv-09667 (S.D.N.Y.). A copy of the complaint can be downloaded here.
At issue is RDR’s plan to publish a 400 page book entitled the “Harry Potter Lexicon” which is apparently just a print version of the free-of-charge Harry Potter Lexicon fan website website (http://www.hp-lexicon.org/). The book is scheduled to be released in the United Kingdom on or about November 5, 2007, and in the United States on November 28, 2007. The author is Steve Vander Ark, the editor of the Harry Potter Lexicon fan website and a noted librarian of all things Harry Potter (even Rowling herself has admitted to occasionally perusing the website to check a fact while writing her books).
Despite the fan website having Rowling’s explicit endorsement, this repackaging of the website’s contents from a free website into a commercial book apparently goes against Rowling’s own plans to publish her own Harry Potter companion book, the proceeds of which would be donated to charity (as she has done with two other such companion books).
Much of the complaint is spent educating about the history of the Harry Potter books. (I can now say that I know what a Quidditch is.) The complaint also details the back and forth communications between Plaintiffs’ counsel and RDR over the pending publication of the book leading up to the filing of the lawsuit.
On September 18, 2007, counsel for Plaintiffs sent a cease and desist letter to RDR citing two federal court cases where companion books were found to be copyright infringement. RDR did not respond other than to indicate its own legal counsel was reviewing the issues raised. In an interesting turn, however, on October 11, 2007, RDR sent its own cease and desist letter to Warner Bros. claiming that a timeline appearing on some of the Harry Potter DVDs infringes on the copyrighted content of the Lexicon website.
While the complaint’s main count is the copyright infringement allegations, Plaintiffs also wield their magic trademarks to help fight this dastardly battle against the evil RDR. The complaint cites to the fact that, pursuant to an agreement between Warner Bros. and Rowling, Warner Bros. holds over 15 federal trademark registrations for the HARRY POTTER mark (along with several other registrations and pending applications based on the various titles of the Harry Potter books). The two most relevant registrations are Reg. Nos. 2,450,788 (word mark) and 2,685,932 (stylized), both for “Printed matter and paper goods” which covers books featuring characters from animated, action adventure, comedy and/or drama features, comic books, and children's books.
Plaintiffs allege Section 32(1) federal trademark infringement (15 USC §1114(1)) against RDR’s use of Plaintiff’s registered HARRY POTTER marks in connection with the sale of the Lexicon book. Plaintiffs further allege that RDR’s book, through its use of the HARRY POTTER marks and lack of adequate disclaimer, will create a likelihood of confusion as to the affiliation, connection, association, origin, source, and sponsorship of the book (amounting to Section 43(a) unfair competition and false designation of origin (15 USC §1125(a)(1)(A)) as well as a likelihood of confusion as to the nature, characteristics and qualities of the book (amounting to Section 43(a) false advertising (15 USC §1125(a)(1)(B))).
The complaint also includes allegations of deceptive trade practices under New York General Business Law §349 (New York Deceptive Trade Practices Act) and unfair competition under New York common law. Finally, Plaintiffs seek a declaratory judgment regarding Defendant’s allegations of copyright infringement over the timeline that Plaintiff Warner Bros. included in DVD versions of several Harry Potter films. The complaint requests a permanent injunction against RDR, actual damages, statutory damages (for the copyright infringement claim), treble damages, costs and attorneys fees.
It is interesting that the Plaintiffs explicitly state in the complaint that “Plaintiffs intend to donate any monetary award that may result from Defendant’s activities prior to an injunction being entered to charity.” This may be a preemptive measure on the part of Rowling and Warner Bros. to assuage any negative publicity arising from the lawsuit from fans who might be alienated by the impression of the big bad evil wizards (Rowling and Warner Bros.) going after a loyal Harry Potter fan.
If you are interested in commentary on the copyright aspects of the lawsuit, I recommend Prof. William Patry’s post (link here) on “The Patry Copyright Blog” as well as the comments by Sharmil McKee at the McKee Law Office Small Business Blog (link here).
As for the trademark aspects of the lawsuit, in addition to a fair use defense, which will also be claimed as part of RDR’s defense to the copyright infringement allegations, I would suspect RDR to claim laches on the part of the Plaintiffs who not only allowed the Lexicon website to use the HARRY POTTER marks in the same way that the alleged Lexicon book likely will, but also endorsed such use,
How effective a fair use defense may be will depend on the extent to which RDR attempts to prevent any likelihood of confusion (through a disclaimer on the cover, etc.). The complaint’s allegations that no such disclaimer will be on the cover of the book was based on information and believe since RDR apparently did not provide Plaintiffs with a copy of the book or its cover before the complaint was filed.
Regardless of where this case ends up, one wonders if Dumbledore would be happy or upset that this lawsuit has taken away from the media coverage surrounding the recent revelation by Rowling of his sexual orientation.

Reading at St Augustine’s
We are passionate about reading at St Augustine’s. Reading is the key to a good education and future economic success. Being able to read well opens doors in life!
We teach word reading through a phonics programme called Read, Write Inc. Mrs Fox is our RWI manager and works hard to ensure high quality teaching across the school. Mrs Fox is constantly assessing and tracking progress to ensure our children learn very well. We teach comprehension through English, Guided Reading and cross-curricular lessons. We hear children read one-to-one regularly, as it is an opportunity to assess progress and gives children a chance to practise their skills. For those children who need extra or specialised support, we provide very successful intervention programmes to ensure that every child can be a successful reader.
We want all our children to go on to Secondary school being able to read fluently with a high level of understanding. We want our children to love reading, to enjoy settling down with a book, to be able to talk about books and authors. We know that the more a child reads, the better he/she will get. And a child who reads out of school is thirteen times more likely to read above the expected level for their age.
We can’t do this on our own. That is why we have clear expectations of how our parents can support. We need the children to read every night to an adult and use the Home Reading Diary to record this.
We appreciate that it is not always easy supporting your child with their reading. Take a look at our ’Parents Zone’ section for ideas and resources.
Our Reading Scheme
Our Reading Scheme is book banded using guidance from the Institute of Education. The books are grouped in ‘colour bands’. Books are allocated a colour based on a variety of factors, for example the number and difficuly of words, the length of the book etc.The books in each band have been carefully selected in order to provide a wide range of opportunities to practise and develop different reading skills.
Your child will usually choose their own book from the large selection within each book band. This is designed to encourage the skills of choice and develop a love of reading.We have a great selection of books from a variety of publishers, including non-fiction. Please support your child in reading their book, as once past the first couple of colour bands they will encounter unfamiliar words and phrases. Once the children pass Silver in the scheme, they are classed as ‘free readers’ and they make their choice from the library. They are allowed to scan two books out. Your child should bring their reading book and Home Reading Diary into school every day. They have the opportunity to change their book whenever they need to. Each class has a system for this.
We keep a close check on how well your child is progressing through the Reading Scheme. We regularly hear the children read and support them in choosing appropriate books if neccessary. If we feel they are not making expected progress, we put into place extra support such as Reading Recovery or BRP. We do, however, expect the children to read every night at home, whether it is on their own if they are Y5 or Y6, or with a grown up if they are younger. This is set as homework. We know that the more a child reads, the better they get. And did you know that a child who reads outside of school is thirteen times more likely to read above the expected level for their age?!
Boosting Reading Potential
BRP is a reading intervention programme which aims to help children to become better readers. The 10 week programme involves three 15 minute sessions a week, one-to-one, with a specially trained Teaching Assistant. The sessions focus on the development of independent readng strategies.
We carry out the BRP programme with children who are not making expected progress in reading or who need support with their confidence. The relevant children are identified and assessed and specific targets are set for the 10 week programme.We are very lucky at St. Augustine’s to have highly skilled Teaching Assistants who carry out the BRP programme.
Reading Recovery is a very successful reading intervention accredited by the Institute of Education and designed to support children who have had real difficulties in learning to read. It involves a series of one-to-one lessons for 30 minutes every day with Miss Etheridge, our Leader of Reading, who is an accredited Reading Recovery teacher.
The programme of support is different for each child, starting from what the child knows and what he/she needs to learn next. The focus of each lesson is to comprehend messages in reading and construct messages in writing. learning how to attend to detail without losing focus on meaning. Research shows that no other intervention achieves such good results so swiftly and so long lasting.
We closely monitor the progress that children make in reading, and are able to support those having difficulties with the Reading Recovery lessons. This ensures that those children will be able to overcome their difficulties and reach age-expected levels within 20 weeks.
We work with Warwick and Coventry Universities, welcoming degree students into school to carry out their ‘Right to Read’ programme. The students work with children one-to-one over a 10 week period, focusing on fluency and comprehension. The children absolutely love their ‘Reading University’ sessions. The programme is very successful, having a huge impact on the children’s confidence.
We are supported by Beanstalk
(www.beanstalkcharity.org), a national charity which provides trained volunteers to carry out reading sessions one-to-one with children. Again, the focus is on reading skills and confidence.
Some of our older children in Years 5 and 6 have been trained to be Buddy Readers. This entails them reading to and with children from Y2. The children really enjoy their sessions, and both older and younger children develop greater confidence in their reading.
We are also delighted to have support from our parents, who give up their time to help out in the library or hear children read in school. We are always grateful for this help, and are always looking for more! If it is something you feel you would like to do, please get in touch with Miss Etheridge, Leader of Reading. Come and watch a reading session! We provide training and can be really flexible about when you would like to be in school.
We work hard to ensure your children are taught to read well at school, but we know that with your daily support the children will make even better progress. Without it, they could actually fall behind. Please support your child, and us, by:
- * hearing your child read their book every day and recording this in the Home Reading Diary. Practice really does make perfect! Children can read their Reading Scheme book, their library book, comics, newspapers, websites, instructions, recipes. Take a look at this to find out more about how to help your child read aloud well.
- * reading to your child. All our children love hearing a story. Choose a book that would be too difficult for younger children to read on their own, or a book you and your child could read together. The more children share stories at home, from the time they are babies, the better they understand how books work. They can recognise and use story language, can join in with rhymes and retell stories. The organisation Booktrust has more information here about how beneficial it is to read to your baby.
- * giving your child access to lots of stuff to read! Joining the local library means being able to borrow 20 books at a time.
www.wordsforlife.org.uk – advice, fun stuff to do together, recommended reads, activities for children from birth to 11 years.
www.booktrust.org.uk – a great website supporting parents in reading to children and inspiring children to read for pleasure, packed with ideas and information.
www.readingagency.org.uk – they say ‘because everything changes when we read’. A charity with a mission to inspire more people to read, they run the Summer Reading Challenge and other programmes for readers of all ages.
www.readingzone.com – a brilliant website with sections for children of all ages and families, with news, reviews, author information, activities and much more.
www.theguardian.com/childrens-books-site – a huge amount of information, top tens of book themes, activities, reviews by children, author interviews etc. Something for everyone.
We have the best school library in Coventry! We know how important it is to develop a love of reading, and to that end we have created a fantastic library in school.
The library has a brilliant selection of picture books, fiction, non-fiction, graphic novels, comics and newspapers, and there are plenty of cosy places to sit and enjoy a good read. As well as older children being able to change their books whenever they need to, every class has a fortnightly visit to the library, and KS2 having an additional fortnightly session with Miss Etheridge. Every day in the library a Reading Hero is chosen – someone who has shown a real love for reading – and house points awarded. The school Reading Panel helps to select new stock, and all children can fill out a Book Request Form. Every week in Assembly a Book Request Form is chosen at random, and that book is then ordered for the library.
The library is open all day, every day, even after school on a Thursday until 4pm for any parents who would like to help their children to change their books, read a story together or chat to Miss Etheridge about reading.
Our fabulous Y6 librarians help to keep the library and reading scheme books organised, and they also help younger children choose books. We are also lucky to have Mrs Armston, a Central Library librarian and parent in school, visiting weekly to help with the library. A real expert!


A rainy morning in Vermont, the humid kind, good for indoor chores and musings. It looks like Raising Evangeline is coming out in November, and Vinehart Farm in 2016. So what can I do to keep you interested? How do I keep you reading when all is quiet on the book front?
I have an idea. I figure if you’re reading this, you like my writing (or you’re very good friends!). And I write for other parts of my life. So I thought I’d share what I’m writing elsewhere with you now, integrating to add interest and give me some freedom from posting “Nothing’s new on the books.”
I’ve included a book review that is coming out in September for our Johnson State College paper, Basement Medicine. I’m a librarian there: I spend my day helping students to navigate library resources while they are taking classes online.
And, my first vacation at the beach picture.
Until next week,
Spitz, B., Dearie, New York: Vintage Books. 2012. Print.
Once. I saw her just once, for a mere five seconds as my boyfriend surfed television channels. My next encounter was through Dan Akroyd during his Saturday Night Live French Chef skit. So when I started reading about Julia Child in Spitz’s biography Dearie, I was unprepared for how swiftly and strongly I became a follower and fan of this amazing woman.
Bob Spitz writes incredibly well, so well that he would make anyone’s life enthralling. But Spitz doesn’t know everyone; he did know Julia Child, and he was a fan, so do expect some bias. Yet there’s enough balance in Dearie to provide many sides of Child’s character—her occasional bigotry and her hardline self-interest, to her open door policy and fearless pursuit of justice.
Who knew that she came from a wealthy ultra-conservative family in California? That she was an administrator in espionage in the Office of Strategic Services during WWII? That she started to take a serious interest in food only in her 30s? That her peculiar voice was genetic, handed down by her mother and her mother before her? There’s so much in Dearie about Child’s home life and politics that you almost forget that she was a famous French chef.
Almost. Child is fierce about cooking, specifically, French cooking. She devotes her life to transforming American kitchens through translating and teaching exact, reliable methods. Once her first cookbook is published—Mastering the art of French cooking, and once she goes on air on educational television in Boston (WGBH), she’s unstoppable. And Spitz records it all.
Using Julia’s archives (donated to the Schlesinger Library at Harvard), letters to and from Julia from friends and family, and his own traveling experiences and conversations with her, Spitz documents her life in a chronological but leisurely manner. This is a story he doesn’t want to finish, and in the end, neither do I.
So I did what any person with Internet access does these days whose interest is piqued—I tracked down and watched one of her French Chef shows on YouTube, the one where she makes omelets. And I entered a request through our library for her first cookbook. Sure she died in 2004, and I’m way late in learning about her. But the great thing is that her legacy still stands. That’s what Bob Spitz does for us. He reminds all that she’s still worth discovering.

The Gift – Simon Armitage
From here it looks like an everyday tale
Of girl meets boy, and boy meets girl
In a sun-soaked, far flown part of the world.
She’s carrying water back from the well;
He’s circling around on rusty wheels.
He’ll spin her a line, she’ll chance a smile;
He’ll lend a hand, offer a ride.
He’ll teach her his balancing act for a price,
For a price.
And later that night the moon is a sign
Saying everything’s good,
She’ll see his face when she closes her eyes;
Breathe his name, breathe it over, and over again.
She’ll pin a wish on her favorite star;
He’ll steal her heart in more ways than one.
But for now, it’s sweet, for now it’s fine;
And the days roll in, and the days roll by.
She’ll swear an oath, he’ll take a vow,
For better or worse, ‘till death do part.
And daylight silently closes its doors,
And night-time’s curtains are slowly drawn.
He’ll offer his all, she’ll open her soul;
And dawn follows dusk, and dusk follows dawn.
And love brings life, love multiplies;
It’s the way of the world, or so we’re told.
But all isn’t well, all isn’t good;
And he’ll swear on his life, and swear to God.
But the tests don’t lie, and his gift to her
Was graver than life, darker than love;
A ghostly sickness, deep in the blood.
And the girls at the well will cut her dead,
And the eyes of the world will look away.
And this is the story,
Year upon year,
Day upon day,
Hour upon hour.
How a fatal heirloom is doing the rounds;
A most unwelcome hand-me-down.
A spiraling sickness, a sickening scourge;
Raging through nations:
Heart to heart,
Blood to blood,
Husband to wife,
Lover to lover,
Life to life,
Offspring to offspring,
On and on,
To daughter, to son,
Handed over and passed along,
Carried by links in the family line.
So an innocent mother will give to her child
A gift it could very well live without.
And a child before it has taken breath,
Is delivered into the arms of death.
And it happens again, and it happens again,
And again, and again, and again, and again,
And again, and again, and again, and again.

Eine Veranstaltung des Amerika-Zentrum Hamburg.
With her One Woman Show “Finding Home“ Dr. Henriette J. Runte aka Dr. J. goes into the linguistic, cultural, societal, and emotional levels of “finding home“. Studded with personal anecdotes and funny stories, the speech takes the audience on Dr. Runte’s long voyage toward putting down roots in Hamburg, Germany.
Throughout the talk, Dr. Runte shares a number of entertaining personal insights with the audience.
Towards the end, the speech turns more tender and thought-provoking, as Dr. Runte reads some touching passages from Life with Coach Pop, a book that recounts how Dr. Runte’s family immigrated to the US.
The former US Consul General to northern Germany, Darion Akins, a Texan himself, as well as the Mayor of Bryan, Texas, Andrew Nelson, who happens to also be an old school mate of Dr. Runte’s, endorsed Life with a Coach Pop and will be in attendance digitally.


Archive for February, 2010
I recently read Antony Beevor’s The Battle for Spain: The Spanish Civil War 1936-1939. It’s a worthwhile read for anyone interested in this period of history. It brings together the political, military, and social history of the war and places it in context with the era’s European politics. This is a complex task, and Beevor succeeds. Helpful maps and pictures are included.
The Battle For Spain includes the roles of the Durruti Column and the CNT-FAI, but since they are woven into the rest of narrative, this might not be the best book for a specifically anarchist study. It certainly will provide a solid basis for understanding the war. The only objection to the work I can think of at the moment is that people new to the history might have trouble keeping up with the acronyms and names, but it shouldn’t be too difficult to remember their context.
I just posted my February Center For a Stateless Society feature: Holding Onto Ideology As We Move Past Dogma. The teaser I originally wrote for the c4ss.org homepage link was: “Darian Worden tries to avoid sounding pretentious as he tells anarchists how to think.” But it seemed like placing this bit of self-referencing humor there would be confusing, so I changed the summary to my favorite sentence in the essay: “If your only plastic soldier is the Bazooka Guy, then your army is going to suck.”
I had originally written in my notes for the article that Rand Paul only got so much support because he “originated in the nutsack of the messiah” but that’s sexist, superfluous, and cruder than the situation called for.
My latest commentary is up at Center For a Stateless Society. It’s a point-by-point discussion of a protest invitation. Check it out: Marching Orders.
A number of excellent commentaries have come out of C4SS lately. And if you want to see more of them, why not throw a few bucks into our fundraiser? Just go to c4ss.org and click the ChipIn button on the right of the page.
My latest commentary can be viewed at Center For a Stateless Society.
When people focus too much on icons of the past – like a famous Tea Party – the lessons that history contains become obscured. People who believe they are against government power can be led into supporting more power if they don’t look for alternatives to rulers…(read more)
My latest commentary is up at Center For a Stateless Society.
After centuries of pretending they were better than everyone else, the royal families of Europe became so intermarried that their family tree could be described as a gnarled bush. The varied expressions of social, economic, and political authority share a similarly incestuous relationship with each other….


Introduction: The Allure of “The Hill”
In every landscape, there exists a focal point that beckons both physically and metaphorically. In the realm of geographical features, “The Hill” stands as an emblem of such allure. Whether a solitary peak, a gentle slope, or a rugged ascent, The Hill holds a timeless fascination for humanity. It symbolizes conquest, perspective, and the relentless pursuit of higher ground. Beyond its physical presence, “The Hill” embodies a rich tapestry of cultural, spiritual, and literary significance that transcends borders and generations.
The Physical and Symbolic Aspects of “The Hill”
Physically, “The Hill” commands attention through its elevation, offering a vantage point that allows one to survey the surrounding landscape. It serves as a testament to the enduring forces of nature, shaped by geological processes over millennia. Symbolically, ascending “The Hill” mirrors the journey of life itself—a relentless pursuit of progress, growth, and enlightenment. From ancient civilizations to modern societies, cultures have imbued hills with spiritual significance, often considering them sacred or divine. As such, “The Hill” represents not only a physical landmark but also a metaphorical journey towards higher understanding and enlightenment.
Cultural and Literary Reverence for “The Hill”
Throughout history, “The Hill” has held a central place in cultural and literary narratives. From the Greek Mount Olympus, home of the gods, to the biblical Mount Sinai, where Moses received the Ten Commandments, hills have been depicted as thresholds to the divine realm. In literature, hills often serve as symbolic settings for pivotal moments of revelation, transformation, and self-discovery. Whether it’s Dante’s ascent of Mount Purgatory or Frodo’s journey to Mount Doom, hills are woven into the fabric of storytelling as sites of both challenge and redemption. Thus, “The Hill” stands not only as a geographical feature but also as a universal symbol that transcends time and space, inviting exploration and introspection.
In conclusion, “The Hill” encapsulates a myriad of meanings—physical, metaphorical, cultural, and literary. Its ascent represents not only a conquest of the land but also a journey of the spirit. As we gaze upon its slopes, we are reminded of our innate human desire to reach new heights, both in the world around us and within ourselves.

This week I went back to my old high school.
I was asked to speak on the the value of reading, books and literacy as the Ambassador for the National Year of Reading.
Here is a copy of the presentation.
For me, reading whet my appetite for travel. Books influenced the places I saw and connected me to people I met on the road. Reading gave me a broader understanding of where I had landed, the culture and the history of a place, before I got off the plane to explore it myself.
There’s something about books that will always trump the web. All the effort that goes into producing one book; edits, re-edits, interviews, and years of people’s lives. Reading a book is a completely different sensation to accessing the instant, information everywhere stories available on the web.
It’s a relief, an escape, an immersion into a different world.
I was shocked to learn that a staggering 46% of Australians have difficulty reading. 46%.
Almost half of Australia can’t read newspapers, understand the instructions on a medicine bottle or read sufficiently to meet the most basic demands of everyday life and work, let alone read a book.
It was good to reflect on how reading has shaped the life I lead.
How has it changed yours? What can we do to encourage children to read – and level up the 46% missing out?


Inspirational and helpful books:
Nicky Gumbel’s Alpha Course mini-book that explains effectively and concisely who Jesus is, what he said and did, and why it matters to you today.
A great resource for outreach and mission, and for giving to friends who are asking questions about life, Jesus and what really matters.
The pocket sized booklet is ideal for keeping a copy or two in your car, pocket or handbag so you’re always prepared to answer that question, meet that need and seize that opportunity for Christ.
Some of us want to escape money. Some of us want to embrace money. We fear money, and we desire it. We think about it every day, and yet often we try not to think about it.
Graham Beynon shows us how to control our money rather than our money controlling us. In this readable, realistic book, he takes us to the gospel to show how we can handle money well in our hearts, so we can handle it confidently and wisely with our hands.
Short, clear, realistic and humorous, this book will challenge you to be honest in your conversations about Jesus, help you to know how to talk about him, and thrill you that God can and will use ordinary people to change eternal destinies.
The Beautiful Outlaw
Jesus is the most vague, misrepresented figure in the history of the world. Is it possible to know and trust someone so ethereal and lofty? What is he really like? Beautiful Outlaw offers a look into the humanity of Jesus, dismantling the aura of lofty religiosity and helping us understand who this man really was – on a personal level. Focusing on his compelling personality, bestselling author John Eldredge shows us the real Jesus – playful, wild, and often scandalous.


In the labyrinthine world of digital narratives, Facebook serves as a sprawling repository where personal sagas interlace with the collective consciousness. However, there arise instances when the need to purge one’s narrative repertoire becomes imperative. This treatise elucidates upon the meticulous process of deleting a story on the Facebook platform, navigating through the intricacies of digital obfuscation.
Understanding the Mechanism:
Before embarking on the expedition of expunging a narrative artifact from the digital milieu, it is imperative to fathom the underlying mechanism governing such deletions. Facebook, as a bastion of digital connectivity, maintains a complex architecture wherein user-generated content, including stories, is stored within a labyrinth of databases and servers. Comprehending this intricate infrastructure is essential for executing the deletion process with precision.
The process of eradicating a story from Facebook’s interface entails a series of meticulously orchestrated maneuvers. Commencing with the initiation of the Facebook application or web interface, the user traverses to the profile section, a locus of personal digital manifestations. Subsequently, the “Stories” segment is accessed, delineating the pantheon of temporal narratives. Herein lies the pivotal juncture wherein the user selects the specific narrative to be expunged from the annals of virtual existence.
In adherence to Facebook’s user-centric paradigm, the deletion process necessitates the invocation of the contextual menu affixed to the targeted story. Herein lies an array of options, among which the “Delete” function stands as the harbinger of narrative dissolution. Upon activation of this function, a confluence of algorithms and backend operations commences, culminating in the systematic removal of the designated narrative from the user’s interface. Careful consideration of each step ensures the efficacy and precision of the deletion procedure.
In certain instances beset by exigencies, wherein expeditious deletion is mandated, recourse to expedited methodologies is warranted. Facebook’s arsenal of tools encompasses functionalities such as bulk deletion, wherein a multiplicity of narratives can be eradicated en masse, streamlining the purgatorial process. Additionally, temporal constraints may necessitate the utilization of scheduled deletion functionalities, enabling narratives to be expunged at predetermined intervals. Flexibility in approach ensures adaptability to diverse deletion scenarios.
Beyond the realm of technical proficiency, the act of deleting a story on Facebook engenders cognitive reverberations. Each narrative, albeit ephemeral in its digital instantiation, embodies a fragment of personal history imbued with emotional resonance. Thus, the decision to excise a narrative from the digital tapestry necessitates introspection and deliberation, grappling with the existential implications of narrative eradication. Acknowledgment of these cognitive ramifications fosters a holistic approach to the deletion process, incorporating emotional intelligence alongside technical acumen.
In the intricate tapestry of digital narratives, the deletion of a story on Facebook transcends mere technical proficiency, resonating with existential connotations. Through a nuanced understanding of Facebook’s interface coupled with judicious utilization of deletion functionalities, individuals can navigate the labyrinthine corridors of digital obfuscation. Yet, amidst the specter of erasure, the essence of personal narratives persists, immutable amidst the vicissitudes of virtual existence. Each deletion marks not only the removal of a digital artifact but also a contemplative act, a negotiation between the impermanence of digital footprints and the enduring nature of personal identity. The process of deletion on Facebook is thus not merely a technical task but a reflective engagement with the narrative of self in the digital age. In this age of technological ubiquity, mastery over digital narratives empowers individuals to sculpt their online personas with intentionality and mindfulness, navigating the virtual realm with discernment and poise. As such, the deletion of a story on Facebook embodies not just a technicality, but a profound assertion of agency in the digital domain, affirming the sovereignty of the individual amidst the flux of cyberspace.

About scraps of books being used in the construction of other books: fairly common, actually. Finding bits of (expensive) parchment in the spine on book, as lining, or as essentially 'filler' for certain kinds of covers, was common: parchment costs money, and this scribe screwed up/who needs this book anymore? The practice carried over to the modern era: it's both practical and traditional. A great example can be found if you google "1200-year-old parchment found inside Auckland Library book"
Ok... I know this probably isn't your area of expertise, but the binding recently broke on an antique book I have. When I inspected the spine, I noticed it was made using pages of another book. I was wondering if you have any idea if that was a common practice at some point in time, or if it is just an odd book. There's a post on my tumblr about it with photos.
no idea, sorry!

Biosphere Stories: Listening to People and the Land
Linnea Bell, Masters research student at the University of Alberta, holds a deep connection to the Beaver Hills Biosphere (BHB). In this article Linnea discusses her current research project that aims to tell the story of the BHB and the deep cultural connection many have to this special place.
As part of a team of University of Alberta researchers who have partnered with the Beaver Hills Biosphere, and with MITACs support, Linnea Bell is working with supervisor, Dr. PearlAnn Reichwein, to conduct oral history interviews and archival research within the Beaver Hills.
Her research project, titled Biosphere Stories: Sharing an Environmental History of People and Places in the Beaver Hills, will delve into and gather different perspectives of what the landscape means to various stakeholders, as told through stories of people and place. Information for the project will be documented through archival reviews, oral history interviews, field work and social gatherings.
“We want to share and record knowledge, memories and stories that community members have gained while living, working or playing within the Beaver Hills region,” explains Linnea.
The project is intended to understand why the Beaver Hills are important to the people who have spent time in the region, now and in the past. Linnea’s research aims to identify what makes the Beaver Hills special to those who have spent time there and determine what is important for future generations to know about the region and life on the land now designated a UNESCO biosphere reserve. Ultimately, Linnea’s research goal will also help people learn how biodiversity has supported us and in turn understand how to support the biosphere.
In Her Words: Linnea’s Story
My mother’s parents immigrated to Canada in 1968, settling in Edmonton at first to attend the University of Alberta. Within a few years, however, they chose to move to the country with their two children to have a big garden, chickens, geese, and a small flock of sheep. Both grandparents were also very interested in geology, ecology, plants and soils, and living in the Beaver Hills area suited the family perfectly.
My grandmother came from a rural background and was particularly eager to share this same experience with her daughters. Some years later, as a student at Colchester Elementary School in Strathcona County, my mother conducted an environmental study on her family's forty-acre farm as part of a school project. She observed the various ponds, puddles, and bodies of water and in her report concluded that, “Our farm does not have any dangerous fish!”
My grandfather went on to become a professor at the University of Alberta always retaining his interest in teaching others about the local landscape. My grandmother also continued to work in the area as a researcher of textiles, with some of her work being on historic fur farms of the area.
I was raised on the stories of the experiences of my family’s life on the land in the Beaver Hills. My life was enriched hearing about the way my mother’s dog would kiss the noses of the neighbour’s cows, how another family’s horse would lie down and refuse to walk when the kids wanted to ride, how my grandmother’s garden yielded raspberry preserves, and about my grandfather teaching university students how to sample soil cores at Elk Island National Park.
I am currently working towards my master’s degree in history within the Faculty of Kinesiology, Sport, and Recreation at the University of Alberta and I began my research as a historian with a bachelor’s degree in History from Mount Allison University, New Brunswick.
Share Your Story
Linnea looks forward to getting to know the Beaver Hills through other’s memories, experiences and perspectives. If you are interested in sharing your stories please contact her at email@example.com.


A Port in the Storm
Margaret Ward, a klutzy young socialite suddenly embroiled in scandal,
is forced to flee 1885 Boston’s comfort for the hardships of a Wyoming ranch. There she accepts the position of village schoolmarm.
Ingenuous, spunky, and hell-bent on having her own way, she settles into her new routine while wreaking havoc on the routines of those around her.
She crosses swords with the School Board, passes out cold from too much spiked punch at a barn dance, and ends up nose to nose with a rattlesnake.
Although she displays a photograph of the man she left behind, she indulges in a mild flirtation with the ranch's heir while exchanging verbal blows with the standoffish ranch foreman.
Will she survive having her beliefs challenged and her set of values overturned?
Will she grow and change for the better in her new environment?
And which of the three men in her life will she choose as her forever love?
Who Bravely Dares
© 2004 by Filbert Publishing
Kathryn Mackenzie wants nothing more than to return home to America
after serving five years as a missionary teacher in India.
She and her charge, Sarah Louise (Sparky) Maintriff, an orphaned six-year-old, board a tramp steamer bound for Hawaii.
On the way, the vessel catches fire and sinks, shipwrecking Kathryn, Sparky, and two other passengers: an American ex-marine from Wyoming and his British friend.
Marooned on an uninhabited island, these four strangers must somehow forge a life even while they battle hardship and deprivation, face unseen dangers, and figure out how to get home.
"Who Bravely Dares" is a rich story of human triumph over adversity,
with touches of fantasy, romance, and history to add spice.
The Quality of Clemency
© 2001 by AmErica House
When the orphaned Taylor family, headed by big-sister Clemency, is caught up in the cross-fire for water rights in 1892 Wyoming, prospects for saving their ranch from cattle baron Sylvester Burchfield seem dim.
But help is assured with the unexpected arrival of hardy Eben Harris,
answering a newspaper ad secretly placed by the older Taylor boys.
As Eben becomes more involved in the family troubles, so is his lonely heart filled by their warmth and generosity. Inevitably, he and lovely Clemency are drawn to each other. Yet some dark mystery in Eben's past holds him back.
On the day that young Robbie Taylor disappears, Clemency rushes to the Two Pair Ranch, owned by Burchfield, to rescue her brother. There, finding Eben in conference with the cattleman, she discovers the awful truth: her cowboy hero is actually Burchfield's hired gun.
How Clemency copes with this betrayal and loss, even while the range war escalates, is a story of strength, courage, and "The Quality of Clemency".
"Half-Life" usually refers to the length of time it takes for half the atoms of a radioactive substance to disintegrate. Or, it could describe Amanda Bellwood, a grief-stricken college freshman leading an empty and incomplete life.
When Amanda's family is killed in a car crash near Chicago, she must reluctantly move in with Jeff Kipling, an attractive young professor who has been designated by her father as her guardian.
Although it is determined that the Bellwood's vehicle was sabotaged and its occupants murdered, this information is being withheld from the young woman...for her own protection. Conflicted and torn, Amanda unwittingly holds the key to the murder mystery...one that will involve her school and its faculty, the police, and a nuclear weapons complex.
While her guardian is responsible for keeping Amanda alive and unharmed,
Jeff is becoming increasingly attracted to his young ward. It is not until the enemy strikes once more,with deadly purpose, that the conspiracy is revealed
and Amanda's life can become full once more.

The Temple of Flame Game Book Kickstarter part 1
Last September Megara Entertainment approached me to colour the special edition release of The Temple of Flame, in the Golden Dragon Game Book series, written by Dave Morris and Oliver Johnson, that I had illustrated in the early 80s. It was the first project I had done that required me to do some research and find visual reference about the Mayan civilisation. I remember Dave sent to a book with a handful of drawings in it of Mayan art and temples, and I remember going to my local library in Seaford to dig out more. At just 19 I knew nothing of Mayans and it is one of the wonderful aspects of illustration that for various jobs I had reason to learn about new subjects. Of course I would get distracted and end up straying into other books on the very limited shelves of the local library.
That distraction is now a major issue that requires an iron will to resist in the age of the internet. Although I now have the mind blowing resource of virtually all human knowledge, and every possible visual reference on any subject at my fingertips, I have to struggle all the time to avoid endless distraction.
I coloured them all using Clip Studio Paint.
Here for your delectation are the first 6 illustrations to Temple of Flame. I’ll roll out the others over the following weeks.


As a school assignment we were told to read the true crime book “Journey for Justice: How ‘Project Angel’ Cracked the Candace Derksen Case” by Mike McIntyre, which chronicles the last days of the young girl and the sentencing of her killer. This is the first true crime novel I’ve read, and my reaction to it was tentative, because it seemed to be presented as both fiction and non-fiction, but never defining itself as either.
I felt that the placement of the events in the novel were smart. McIntyre revealed Mark Grant as the killer in the first chapter of the book, which I felt to be a good choice considering Grant’s recent sentencing. It’s no murder mystery. Then he outlines the aftermath of the deed and how the family navigated this traumatic event. In the third section of the book the reader discovers that Grant came from a very broken home and had mental health issues; but this is only revealed after the family finds Candace’s small, frozen body in an industrial area. We first come to hate the killer, but then find a way to somehow justify his actions. Candace’s parents grew to forgive the man who took the life of their daughter, acting as models for the reader.
In my opinion “Journey for Justice” was difficult to read through. The journalistic style, I think, is more impactful in short bursts, and the fact-based nature of the writing was dry after an extended period of time. McIntyre mentioned how he was frustrated with the limitations that newspapers offered, and that “so much of the story was being untold”, which is initially why he decided to write the book. I didn’t understand, though, why he insisted how hugely important the Mennonite faith was for the Derksens, to the degree that it felt like he had an agenda. I think if you’re going to write a non-fiction book, you shouldn’t include so many passages about faith. Even as a believer, I felt excluded.
The most important lesson that I learned from the book is that “nothing beats being there”. Wilma Derksen, Candace’s mom, wrote a book called “Have You Seen Candace?” where she chronicled her own experience with the murder and was able to capture minute details and sentences uttered 20 years in the past. McIntyre was able to take passages from Wilma’s book and convey these personal elements to the reader. During the presentations, he recounted how he drove 4 hours to Saskatchewan on a whim to try and get an exclusive interview, and ended up spending 10 hours with the family. I am trying to be fully present when I conduct interviews now, trying to notice things that I wouldn’t normally notice and focusing on more than just what’s being said.
The true crime book “Journey for Justice” can be comparable to a biography, but instead of chronicling someone’s life, it chronicles the aftermath of their death. To me, both of these genres of storytelling demonstrate the power and importance that one person can have onto others. The tangible qualities of a book- the paper, ink, and binding- live on after the subject is gone in the same way that the story of a person can continue to live on as tangibly as our minds allow.
I feel as though the book and the presentations were overshadowed by a big, looming figure... Mike McIntyre. In journalism we are told to report the facts, but this assignment opened my eyes to the subjectivity that journalists have access to. I mentioned previously how omnipresent the Mennonite faith was in the book, and so on presentation day I expected Wilma Derksen to be a crazy bible-thumper preaching the word of God at every turn. What I saw was a well-spoken, impossibly-cheery mother who has taken an extremely traumatic event and has tried to make some good happen.
What I found most surprising was Wilma’s definition of “faith”, which she defines to be a “comprehensive, well-rounded worldview”. Wilma first credited the communication skills she learned at Red River in helping her get through the trauma and make her initial on-camera plea for the safe return of her daughter. Perhaps she was toning down her spirituality to better connect with the crowd, but the Wilma that McIntyre portrays did not match the mother that I saw. McIntyre also inserted himself throughout the presentation by answering questions that were directed at Wilma and speaking over her. I’d like to have read her book and see her present without the Free Press reporter.
I told Wilma after her presentation that she gave us some really good quotes, you can tell that she’s a journalist. She left me with a very impactful idea, she said “everyone is writing a story, Mark Grant was writing a story, a novel filled with twists and turns. In this modern age, it sometimes feels as though “storytelling” is a thing of the past, but Wilma made me realize that the art form still exists but the parameters have shifted.

University Chapel, former Pauline Monastery
The eighteenth-century Pauline church is one of the most outstanding Baroque ecclesiastical buildings in Budapest. Its richly ornamented interior and especially the carved pulpit are the most prominent works of Hungarian Baroque Art.
The part of utmost interest of the monastery is the library that is the most significant Baroque gallery-library of Hungary.
The Pauline monks returned to the country after the Turkish occupation, and instead of regaining their previous possessions in Buda, they were allowed to settle, using a mosque as their church, on the allotments that they received in 1688, in the proximity of the Kecskemét Gate in Pest.
First they arose a chapel there in 1720, and then they had their church, the later University Church, built between 1725 and 1776. The interior of the large-scale Baroque building is distinguished by the richness of decoration; its carved pulpit is a prominent work of Hungarian Baroque Art. Both the high altar and the side altars are opulently decorated, the statues and the ceiling frescos are equally impressive.
The furniture and the majority of the wooden reliefs of the church are Pauline works in Baroque style. Next to the church there stood the monastery of the order, the most significant premise of which was the library with its abundantly carved, two-stored gallery installation perfected in 1775.
