  • Death and Change Tracking: Wikipedia Edit Bursts Miles Lincoln
    Death and Change Tracking: Wikipedia Edit Bursts Miles Lincoln ABSTRACT Bursts have been used in prior informetrics studies to predict the emergence of new fields and trends in research by looking at the occurrence of common terms throughout a body of knowledge, such as the full text of a journal. If a sudden flurry of activity in a field can be observed, it may be possible to quantify and determine to what effect this new area will take off. Having identified a new variety of burst observed in the activity on a Wikipedia page following a newsworthy event, this study took an interest in what could be predicted by visualizing these graphs, as they represent a granular, instantly updated resource that can be observed and analyzed. Additionally, beyond prediction, can the analysis of this data correlate to other aspects of the subject of the Wikipedia page? For example, does the popularity of an actor correlate to the size of the edit burst on their Wikipedia page Burst, or spike, beginning at x=3 following their death? This study develops a workflow and These bursts are typically associated with some event related to appends scripts capable of processing data from Wikipedia that the subject of the page, such as a newsworthy event. The news can be applied to any sampling of pages to visualize bursts in reaches the general public, then one editor first updates the page activity from which one could look for correlations and make their to reflect this news [2], followed by a number of other editors own predictions.

That image, possibly the most evocative and most repeated in the Western, signifies both continuing adventure and ever westward motion as well as a restless lack of final resolution. This thesis examines the ambiguous endings and the conditions leading up to them in two film Westerns of the 1950s, George Steven’s Shane (1953) and John Ford’s The Searchers (1956).

In 1997 Wise and his co-author Ann Rehill wrote Stars in Blue: Movie Actors in America's Sea Services in which film actors who served in the U.S. Navy, Naval Reserve, Coast Guard, or Coast Guard Reserve from 1920 through the Korean War are profiled. Wise and Rehill also authored Stars in the Corps: Movie Actors in the United States Marines (1999) which covers the same period but emphasizes Marines in the Pacific Theater of Operations during World War II. Your reviewer had the privilege of reviewing these two prior volumes [1], and is pleased to report that this third volume joins its antecedents by providing the reader with clear, concise, and informative profiles of celebrities who, in this volume, served in the U.S. Army and air services from as early as the Spanish-American War into the Vietnam era.

  • Fort Apache – This Is a 1948 Western Film Starring John Wayne and Henry Fonda
    STAGE SCENARIOS Stage One – Fort Apache – This is a 1948 Western film starring John Wayne and Henry Fonda. Director John Ford hired Ben Johnson as a riding double for Henry Fonda. During the shooting, three horses pulling a wagon with three men in it stampeded. Ben Johnson, who happened to be nearby sitting on his horse, gave chase, stopped the runaway wagon and saved the three men. Shooting Line: “Whoa Boys!” Stage Two - She Wore A Yellow Ribbon – This 1949 John Ford movie won an Academy Award for its color cinematography and painted a memorable portrait of the honor, duty and courage in the finest tradition of the cavalry. The movie starred John Wayne, Joanne Dru, John Agar, Ben Johnson and Harry Carey, Jr. In one scene, Sergeant Tyree played by Ben Johnson, escorts the stage coach to the Fort with the paymaster who has been killed by Indians. Sergeant Tyree says to Captain Nathan Cutting Brittles, played by John Wayne, “Gunshot sir. Dead when I found him.” Shooting Line: “Gunshot sir. Dead when I found him.” Or, “Dead when I found him.” Stage Three – Wagon Master – This is a 1950 Western film about a Mormon pioneer wagon train heading to the San Juan River in Utah. John Ford turned Ben Johnson from a stuntman into an actor in this movie. In one scene, Travis played by Ben Johnson, rides up to Miss Denver, an entertainer and apparently a prostitute played by Joanne Dru. As Miss Denver is leaving the wagon train, Travis tries to propose. Travis says, “Sure hope I see you again Miss Denver.” Miss Denver turns around and walks away and says, “Thanks.
