STEWART “What utter drivel” Another person on Facebook. “I may be in the minority here, but I find these editorial pieces to be completely unreadable garbage.” Guess where that one came from. “No, you’re not. Honestly, I think of this the same Bond thinks of his obituary by M.” Chap above’s made a chum. This might be what Facebook is for. That’s rather lovely. Isn’t the internet super? “I don’t get it either and I don’t have the guts to say it because I fear their rhetoric or they’d might just ignore me. After reading one of these I feel like I’ve walked in on a Specter round table meeting of which I do not belong. I suppose I’m less a Bond fan because I haven’t read all the novels. I just figured these were for the fans who’ve read all the novels including the continuation ones, fan’s of literary Bond instead of the films. They leave me wondering if I can even read or if I even have a grasp of the language itself.” No comment. This ebook is not for sale but only available as a free download at Commanderbond.net.

  • St Albans City Archive Catalogues - Transcription
    St Albans City Archive Catalogues - Transcription Introduction The St Albans City Archive is one of the main sources of primary material for anyone researching the history of the city. However, understanding what is in the archive is daunting as the key finding aid, the catalogue produced by William Le Hardy in the 1940s, does not match the standard of modern catalogues. Improvements are underway. The City Archive has been held at Hertfordshire Archives & Local Studies (HALS) in Hertford since the 1990s. HALS are currently engaged in an extensive project to improve access to its catalogues via the internet. The City Archive is part of this project but it is likely to be several years before the fully revised catalogue is available on-line. In light of this and with HALS’ agreement, the St Albans & Hertfordshire Architectural & Archaeological Society (SAHAAS) has opted to publish the following transcription of Le Hardy’s catalogue together with relevant material from the ‘Interim’ catalogue. (The latter represents a further deposit by St Albans City Council in the 1990s). For the benefit of SAHAAS members, most of whom live closer to St Albans than to Hertford, we have noted on the transcript the following additional information: 1. Microfilm numbers: much of the pre-1830 archive has been microfilmed. Copies of these films are held in the Local Studies filing cabinets at St Albans Central Library. (See column marked Microfilm/Book) 2. A transcription of the St Albans Borough Quarter Sessions Rolls, 1784-1820, was published by the Hertfordshire Record Society (HRS) in 1991. (See column marked Microfilm/Book) Finally, some of the items catalogued by Le Hardy were not subsequently deposited by the City Council.

  • Computer Conservation Society
    Computer Conservation Society Aims and objectives The Computer Conservation Society (CCS) is a co-operative venture between the British Computer Society, the Science Museum of London and the Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester. The CCS was constituted in September 1989 as a Specialist Group of the British Computer Society (BCS). It is thus covered by the Royal Charter and charitable status of the BCS. The aims of the CCS are to Promote the conservation of historic computers and to identify existing computers which may need to be archived in the future Develop awareness of the importance of historic computers Encourage research on historic computers and their impact on society Membership is open to anyone interested in computer conservation and the history of computing. The CCS is funded and supported by voluntary subscriptions from members, a grant from the BCS, fees from corporate membership, do- nations, and by the free use of Science Museum facilities. Some charges may be made for publications and attendance at seminars and conferences. There are a number of active Working Parties on specific computer restorations and early computer technologies and software. Younger peo- ple are especially encouraged to take part in order to achieve skills transfer.

  • IGG40 Abstracts' Book
    Incontro di Grammatica Generativa (IGG40), Trento, Italy, February 13-15, 2014 Welcome to IGG40 For 40 years, the Incontro di Grammatica Generativa (Generative Grammar Meeting) has been Italy’s main regular venue for discussions on every aspect of generative grammar and formal linguistics. Starting from an initial focus on syntax, recent editions of the IGG have gradually expanded to phonology, morphology, formal semantics, discourse and psycholinguistics. The IGG started bridging domains: the interface between syntax and meaning, between phonology and morphology, the relation between the grammars of first and second language learners, the study of microvariation and many other ‘interface’ topics. The same is happening with methodologies: talks at current IGGs have addressed the use of experimental methods to support theoretical results, the relation between grammar and parsing, the use of corpora to support judgements or provide real-life examples of rare constructions, etc. This trend illustrates the growing importance of a multidisciplinary approach to linguistics, but also the effort it takes for practitioners who work ‘at the edges’ to be recognized, to agree on a common language and to converge on a shared set of research questions. We hope that the opportunities and challenges of modern linguistics are well-represented in this edition of the conference. The Organizers Ermenegildo Bidese Federica Cognola Patrizia Cordin Michelangelo Falco Chiara Finocchiaro Manuela Moroni Francesco Vespignani Roberto Zamparelli IGG40 - iii Incontro di Grammatica Generativa (IGG40), Trento, Italy, February 13-15, 2014 Forty Years of “Incontri” Having the honor of hosting this landmark 40th edition of the conference at the University of Trento prompted us to try to reconstruct the history of this meeting, at least in its bare essentials.

  • Copyright in Teams Anthony J
    Copyright in Teams Anthony J. Caseyt & Andres Sawickitt Dozens of people worked together to produce Casablanca. But a single person working alone wrote The Sound and the Fury. While almost all films are produced by large collaborations,no great novel ever resulted from the work of a team. Why does the frequency and success of collaborative creative production vary across art forms? The answer lies in significantpart at the intersection of intellectualproperty law and the theory of the firm. Existing analyses in this area often focus on patent law and look almost exclusively to a property-rights theory of the firm. The impli- cations of organizational theory for collaborative creativity and its intersection with copyright law have been less examined. To fill this gap, we look to team- production and moral-hazardtheories to understandhow copyright law can facili- tate or impede collaborative creative production. While existing legal theories look only at how creative goods are integrated with complementary assets, we explore how the creative goods themselves are produced. This analysis sheds new light on poorly understood features of copyright law, including the derivative-works right, the ownership structure ofa joint work, and the work-made-for-hire doctrine.

Sadly, during August, a large branch fell off in the middle of the night, victim so the experts said to the phenomenon of ’summer drop’. Much to our relief we have been assured that the tree is otherwise in good health, subject to some pruning to balance what remains. So far as I’m aware that is the only negative change in the physical aspect of the College that I need to report. Work has continued on aspects of the fabric to ensure that the original Butterfield buildings are preserved and, where appropriate, enhanced. This has included a further phase of refurbishment of the rooms in Liddon Quad and of some of the floor tiling in the Hall. The main elements of a new lighting scheme in the Chapel have also been completed and, as a result, three valuable outcomes have been achieved: the mosaics are now visible,The Light of the World is lit to much better effect and the choir is able to read the music its members so ably perform.
