Executive Summary:
In the context of the emerging knowledge-based economy, innovation and the capacity of the national innovation system to create and disseminate scientific and scholarly information are increasingly fundamental determinants of national prosperity. In their foundational work on National Innovation Systems, the OECD observed that prosperity in a knowledge economy depends as much, if not more, on the knowledge distribution power of the system than it does on its knowledge production power (OECD 1997, p43). This makes the infrastructure supporting research communication and collaboration, information search and access, and dissemination and publication a key element of the national innovation system. It is essential, therefore, to provide cost-effective access to, and dissemination of scientific and scholarly information in support of research and its economic, social and environmental applications. This study examines evolving research practices, focusing on how practices are changing and what the implications of those changes are for scholarly communication and the future development of the research infrastructure. It outlines a coherent agenda for the evolutionary development of a sustainable research information and scholarly communication infrastructure.[David Dillard April 4, 2005 Net-Gold]

Armageddon fundraiser porn, five bodies,
and a Mormon assassination plot 06/16/2004 11:58 AM
Fleshbot points to a court case that's, like, weirder than Michael Jackson and the Scott Peterson trial combined. Murder, dismemberment, lapsed Mormons, the death penalty, and Playboy model Kerissa Fare.

This week, a jury in Martinez, a small town outside San Francisco, will retire to consider the bizarre, brutally violent cult surrounding one Glenn Taylor Helzer, a lapsed Mormon accused of bludgeoning and dismembering five people in an elaborate extortion racket intended to hasten the second coming of Jesus Christ.

Helzer, a former stockbroker who has already pleaded guilty and faces the death penalty, exerted a charismatic hold over an eclectic group of followers including his younger brother, a former girlfriend turned Playboy centrefold model, and a self-described "good witch" who once offered to raise money for Armageddon by appearing in porn films.

Well, if you don't like my beliefs, I

Florida is set out to squash "leftist totalitarianism" by introducing a bill that allows students to sue professors in universities for "not respecting the beliefs of the students".

To quote:

Hooray. We know all what happened in Russia when ideology became more important than facts... And what will happen when lawyers start running the universities? Not that they do already, but at the moment they've not been messing with curriculums.

Here's a direct link to the bill text. The bill is quite interesting, as it really does not sound very bad. In fact, principles and ideas embodied in it do sound very grand and liberal! However, what it really says is that students have a right to hear what they want, and should someone infringe on that, they could be sued. Since the bill does not define what is "controversial material", or "serious scholarly viewpoints", it becomes very difficult to determine what has to be included in the curriculum and what not - simply because seriousness and controversy are based on personal opinions.

Marine Refuses to Use Guns ... Marine Cpl. Joel D. Klimkewicz converted to the Church of Jesus Christ and Latter Day saints while in the Marines, and now believes that killing is against Jesus' teachings. As such, he refused to train with a gun though he says he would be willing to clear mines and work the front lines. The result is that the military has jailed him for his religious beliefs, convicting him of disobeying a direct order. Anyone think that Bill O'Reilly is going to say the military is trying to destroy Christianity?

The National Coalition of Independent Scholars (NCIS) was formed in January 1989 to facilitate the work of independent scholars. NCIS objectives are to: 1) Bring independent scholars together to share scholarly interests and expertise, 2) Improve access to research libraries for independent scholars, 3) Offer independent scholars information and advice about grants and fellowships and about publishing, 4) Encourage foundations and institutes to open competitions to independent scholars and to include them on review committees, 5) Hold co nferences and workshops of interest to independent scholars and to the public, 6) Offer grants-in-aid to NCIS members and small grants to affiliates, 7) Serve as administrator for members applying for grants, 8) Encourage information exchange through publications and electronic communication, 9) Aid organizations of independent scholars by collecting and sharing organization experience and by publicizing their work, and 10) Provide information for the creation of local organizations of independent scholars.

AXOGENIC and U. of Sydney collaboration is intended to result in the discovery of new technologies for human interaction with complex data structures arising from the analysis of DNA microarray data. The new technologies will take the form of 2D and 3D interactive visualisations which, when later integrated into Axogenic's product line, will help speed discovery in genetic and proteomic research, with applications across a broad range of life sciences.

Back to BASIC

Back to BASIC 05/15/2004 01:08 AM
David Ahl's BASIC Computer Games (1978): I actually have a copy of this book in paper, dug up in some used book store pile ages ago, but now, you can revel in its full glories online.

Before there were sprites and polygons and first-person-shooters, before there were there were teletypes chattering out lines of text. And there were paper tapes for you to store your work. Right around the time Richard Nixon was being kicked out of office, I was learning BASIC by reading the code to some of these games. (We didn't get them from the book -- they were just floating around on the minicomputer we timeshared.) "Hammurabi," a sort of primitive, text-only SimCity, was the one I and my circle of friends latched onto -- and proceeded to amend. Because all these programs were free and, in the manner of their time, open source. [Thanks, Boing Boing and Oblomovka]
