The man who made some of the best known images of the Mexican Revolution on the Texas border was not a native of the Rio Grande Valley.

In the 1830s and 1840s, the clerk of tiny Harlan County, Kentucky, signed court papers with a practiced hand.

This one starts with a personal note. I’ve never blogged much about the media whirlwind that accompanied the announcement of Sauroposeidon. Rich Cifelli and I did tons of interviews, separately and together, for local and national television news, newspapers, and magazines.

Canada is positioned as a leader in diamond open access with a strong foundation, investment in open infrastructure, unique funding models, wide-spread adoption of Open Journal Systems (OJS), and a focus on what really matters to Canadian scholarly knowledge creators, mobilizers, and publishers.
