|Behavioral: Structured treatment interruption
|Not Applicable
The focus of this study is to use Structured Treatment Interruption (STI) as an approach to auto-immunization. The STI management schema is based on current understanding of HIV-1 viral dynamics, pharmacology of available antiretroviral medications, and HIV-specific host responses. This is a Phase II trial to provide preliminary data on the feasibility and possible efficacy of using STI to enhance immune-based control of HIV-1 replication. A steady state HIV-1 viral load determined from historical tests prior to initiating highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) will be compared to the steady state viral load post-STI. HIV-1 specific CD4 and CD8 cell responses will be measured before and after the period of STI management and HIV-1 specific CD8 cell maturational phenotype will be assessed and correlated with ability to control viral replication.
Adolescents and young adults who have either had sustained viral suppression on HAART for at least 2 years or who have had sustained viral suppression from 3 to 6 months will be eligible for this study. Participants will have 12 weeks of HAART followed by 2 to 4 weeks of treatment interruption. Participants will undergo three rounds of this regimen. After the third STI, participants will have an additional 12 weeks of HAART and then stop therapy. Participants will be monitored off HAART for up to 20 weeks. During this time, if there is evidence of HIV progression (two consecutive viral loads exceeding 10,000 copies/ml; two consecutive CD4 cell counts under 350 cells/microL; two consecutive CD4 percentages less than 15%; or two consecutive CD4 cell counts less than 50% of baseline), standard continuous antiretroviral therapy will be reinstituted. Plasma HIV RNA will be tested monthly during therapy and weekly while subjects are off treatment. Immunologic studies are monthly throughout the study. Participants will be involved in the study for approximately 2 years.

The British Parliament got an earful over the last couple of days as testimony continued in the LIBOR-fixing scandal. Mervyn King, governor of the Bank of England (BoE), said Barclays was so blase about the issue that he pushed for CEO Bob Diamond to step down. Jerry del Missier, former Barclays chief operating officer, said he saw nothing wrong with adjusting the bank's LIBOR submission, since the instruction to do so had come from the BoE. And banks in the investigation faced other woes.
Reuters reported Tuesday that King told Barclays that Diamond must go after the rigging of LIBOR submissions came to light. Diamond had had no intention of resigning, instead intending to head up reforms. However, King was quoted saying, "The Barclays board … was deeply reluctant to face up to the concerns. It became clear to me that they hadn't really taken on board the loss of confidence."
King also said that Barclays had to create a new bank and a new culture so that it could move beyond the LIBOR issue, and that a Financial Services Authority (FSA) letter in April to Barclays had already expressed concerns about the bank's culture. When King met with Marcus Agius, Barclays chairman, on July 2, he said, he clarified the magnitude of the problem with the existing culture at the bank.
He was quoted saying, "All of us involved had built up genuine concern that it is possible to sail close to the wind once. You can sail close twice or maybe even three times. But when it gets to four or five times it becomes a regular pattern of behavior [and you] … have to ask questions about the navigational skills of the captain." After King's intervention, Diamond did indeed step down.
On Monday, del Missier's testimony to the House of Commons Treasury Select Committee had told something of a different story, as he cited the intervention of Paul Tucker, deputy governor of the BoE, as the reason he instructed bank personnel to adjust Barclays' LIBOR submissions.
Tucker, on the other hand, had testified that he spoke to Diamond over concerns about the bank's financial health and funding costs because of the high interest rates the bank was submitting, and not to discuss interest rates or to suggest that they be manipulated lower. Diamond had said in his own testimony that del Missier misinterpreted what he, Diamond, had told him about the conversation.
Del Missier said in the report, "I passed the instruction on to the head of the money-market desk. I relayed the content of the conversation I had with Mr. Diamond and fully expected the Bank of England views would be fully incorporated in the LIBOR submission. I expected that they would take those views into account."
He added, "At the time it did not seem an inappropriate action given that this was coming from the Bank of England … I only know what I clearly recall from my conversations with Mr. Diamond. I acted on the basis of the phone conversation that I had." Not just Barclays but also the BoE and the FSA are in the spotlight over the issue. Politicians are demanding to know why no substantive action was taken earlier, particularly since evidence has surfaced that the LIBOR had been manipulated for years and that in May 2008 Timothy Geithner, the U.S. Treasury secretary who at the time was president of the New York Fed, e-mailed King with recommendations to make LIBOR less prone to manipulation.
King said that the Fed never sent any evidence that LIBOR was being misreported. In the report, he said, "Mr. Geithner was sending that to us as a suggestion for how these rules should be constructed and we agreed with him, but neither of us had evidence of wrongdoing." King added, "The first I knew of any alleged wrongdoing was when the reports came out two weeks ago."
Bloomberg reported that Tracey McDermott, acting head of enforcement at the FSA, told the parliamentary committee Monday that seven banks are being investigated for submitting false rates. The banks were not identified.
More than seven are under investigation by a number of official bodies worldwide. According to Reuters, the banks facing inquiries are Bank of America, Barclays, BTMU Capital, Citigroup, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, HBOS (a unit of Lloyds Banking Group that is the holding company for the Bank of Scotland and other banks), HSBC, JPMorgan Chase, Lloyds, Rabobank, the Royal Bank of Canada (RBC), the Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS), UBS, West LB and Norinchukin.
Some of those banks face other troubles. According to a report by the U.S. Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, HSBC was involved in money laundering, evaded sanctions on Iran and did business with terrorists. Bloomberg reported that both the bank and U.S. regulators will be questioned at a Tuesday hearing.
"HSBC sets up a U.S. bank affiliate as its gateway into the U.S. financial system and lets its global network of affiliates abuse that gateway," Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich, who heads the subcommittee, was quoted saying. "The failure of accountability here is dramatic."
The criminal investigation, meanwhile, over losses at JPMorgan's Chief Investment Office headed into stormy waters. The decision last week by the bank to notify U.S. authorities that it had found evidence in an internal investigation of efforts to hide losses also resulted in the bank's decision to restate its first-quarter earnings—the day before it was to report results for the second quarter.
Three unidentified sources told Reuters there may be evidence of wrongdoing in the office. Two of the sources said that the criminal probe was looking at personal trading in the CIO and whether bank shares were sold prior to the original announcement of the $2 billion loss.
Now, however, the investigation is looking at whether three JPMorgan employees in London committed fraud in reporting on their transactions. Outside counsel WilmerHale, which is handling the internal investigation, found that "traders may have been seeking to avoid showing the full amount of losses." The bank is cooperating.

Club doesn't expect elbow to limit Furcal's preparation
JUPITER, Fla. -- Though the Cardinals will not rush Rafael Furcal's preparation process this spring, the club does not anticipate the shortstop having limitations because of his right elbow. Furcal's 2012 season ended in late August when he suffered a tear of the ulnar collateral ligament in that elbow.
Furcal arrived in Jupiter on Wednesday and did his first bit of work at the Cardinals' complex on Thursday. He is cleared to hit, field and throw.
"He feels like he's pretty much on program," manager Mike Matheny said. "You have to realize what you had last year. We went pretty slow with him and he came out of the box carrying us. We understand that we can put him on a program and we'll be good as long as things point in a healthy direction."
Indeed, Furcal's Grapefruit League results last year caused some concern about his health and readiness for the season. He finished with just 10 hits in 52 at-bats. It had no carryover effect, though, as Furcal produced three three-hit games in the team's first four games of the season.
How cautious the Cardinals end up being with their starting shortstop this spring will ultimately be dictated by how Furcal feels as he gradually pushes himself further.
"We'll just watch," Matheny said. "We'll be listening to the trainers and what they say. We'll listen to what Raffy says and how he feels."

US government boffins say they have built a clock so precise that it will still be accurate to within one second when life on Earth has ceased.
The "quantum logic clock" will neither gain nor lose a second over the next 3.7 billion years, according to its makers at the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). It uses a single aluminium atom to keep time, processing its measurements in the same way as experimental quantum computers do - hence the name.
At the moment, the internationally-accepted definition of a second is based on the caesium atom. Thus official time is based on such clocks as the US F1 caesium job, which is wildly inaccurate compared to the new aluminium horology tech at ± 1 second in 100 million years. But according to the NIST inventors, the can of whup-ass opened upon such antique clocks by their latest quantum-logic aluminium kit is of such dimensions as to require action.
"This is a milestone for atomic clocks," says NIST boffin James Chou.
That said, NIST also has other radical new clock prototypes under development in its labs, all contenders to topple caesium from its throne as clock di tutti clocki. Many types of brain-bending science could requires measurements even more precise than Chou and his colleagues' aluminium quantum vibro device.
For ordinary purposes it should be more than accurate enough, however. While the Sun should have some time to run before becoming a red giant - and so engulfing the Earth and much of the solar system - when the aluminium clock has finally wandered off by a second, life on land at least should already have been made extinct as our home star heats up and burns its remaining fuel faster.
Unless we get our skates on in terms of space travel, colonizing other planets etc. in the next couple of billion years, Chou's clock will quite literally be the only one we'll ever need - a veritable doomsday clock.
You can read a draft of Chou and his fellow quantum watchmakers' paper (none blind that we know of) here, in advance of publication in hefty boffinry journal Physical Review Letters. ®

TORONTO – It could have been so much more, and for Canada's sake, they had better hope qualifying for the Hexagonal doesn't go down to goal differential.
Playing against a Cuban team that only had 11 players after a number of them reportedly left the team, Canada got one early then scored a couple more late to win Friday's World Cup qualifier at BMO Field 3-0 in a game the hosts dominated.
Tosaint Ricketts scored 14 minutes in and it looked like the floodgates would open from there. But Canada frustratingly couldn't convert a plethora of chances before Will Johnson's header in the 72nd minute and David Edgar's right-footed volley in the 78th made the offensive dominance go down easier after Canada outshot the visitors by a whopping 37-6 margin.
Cuban goalkeeper Odelín Molina made some fine saves – nine by the time the final whistle sounded – but it shouldn't have even mattered. As early as the fourth minute, Canada asked questions of the patchwork Cuban backline.
Atiba Hutchinson crossed in from the right early, but Simeon Jackson couldn't poke home from close range and Molina made the save on Occean's follow-up. It became a pattern that repeated itself as Canada put shot after shot on goal, many of which were right at the veteran Cuban 'keeper.
The Canadians took their foot off the gas a bit as the half progressed but ended it with a flurry as Ricketts headed over, Occean had a header saved and Hutchinson saw his shot palmed over in quick succession.
OPTA Chalkboard: Canadians dominate undermanned Cubans
Cuba's Roberto Linares was red-carded in the 71st minute on a reckless tackle on Andre Hainault, but Canada gave it right back after Johnson scored to ice the win. As the RSL man went to retrieve the ball, Occean tussled with Molina in the net and was shown red by official Javier Santos.
That means the Québécois striker will miss Canada's crucial Group C finale in Honduras on Oct. 16 in which Les Rouges will almost certainly need at least a point to reach the CONCACAF Hexagonal for the first time in 16 years.

Tips for Effective Communication
Council Members receive hundreds of constituent letters, emails, faxes, phone messages, form letters, and other types of communications each week, in addition to an avalanche of internal memoranda, briefing papers, meeting notices and agendas, and draft proposals. Getting through this volume takes considerable time and attention from the Council Member and his or her staffers. The following tips are intended to help you get the most out of your communications with Council Members.
Go to the right place.
- Always direct your communication to the responsible department or division first. Frequently, the responsible department or division can respond to your requests or questions and help address any concerns you have. If the department or division cannot assist you, contact your Council Member for assistance.
- If you aren't sure how to direct your communication, start with Minneapolis 311. That agency acts as the central customer service bureau for the City Government and the 311 agents can help you determine how best to direct your communication within the bureaucracy.
- If your issue is a matter of policy, or if you are attempting to communicate with one of the Council's Standing Committees about an issue within its jurisdiction, start with addressing the Council Member who is the Chair of that particular Standing Committee. If you aren't sure who the Committee Chair is, contact the Assistant to City Council for help, at (612) 673-2244.
One letter for one request.
To be most effective, remember: one meeting, letter, phone call, etc., for one request. Resist the temptation to pile on additional issues just because you have the Council Member's attention. Pushing multiple issues at once makes a lot of "noise" for an elected official. If you present a menu of concerns, problems, and requests, then it is highly unlikely that you will be effective in getting what you want, and (worse) you risk losing the attention of the Council Member. For best results, remember that one request = one meeting, letter, or phone call.
Do your homework, know your subject matter, and be specific.
If you are communicating with an elected official, it's important to do your homework first. Most people don't adequately prepare and fail to prepare a well-researched, well-rehearsed request or written communication. For example, you should research the Council Member's public statements and voting record on the particular subject matter, or at least a closely-related subject matter. Also, you should be thoroughly familiar with your issue—both the benefits and the potential consequences—so that you can anticipate and plan your discussion points in advance. Be sure to present your issue in the clearest and most concise way possible. Remember that Council Members are very busy. Getting right to the point is appreciated. Also, be very clear in asking for exactly what you want, usually structured as a "yes or no" option. For a face-to-face meeting, it helps to take 30 minutes and practice your presentation before the meeting. Also, if you expect a response to your issue, make sure you request a response. Remember—constituents who are prepared, who have thoughtful arguments, solid data, and persuasive stories the help illustrate key points are the ones who get remembers…and have the best impact.
Keep communication brief and on-point.
Written requests should be presented in no more than two pages—and less is better. Attachments are fine for additional details or background, but a one or two-page summary of your request should succinctly summarize your issue and clearly state what you want. Be sure to put your best arguments and strongest points at the beginning of your message. Also, while printed copies are great, if you can provide an electronic copy of your material(s), it will be appreciated. When planning face-to-face appointments, be sure to leave time for the Council Member to ask follow-up questions after you present your issue.
Identify steps already taken.
If you've already taken steps to resolve your concern, say so. Those who've done everything they can think of before engaging an elected official are actually more likely to get prompt attention. If you let your Council Member know that you've already contacted the appropriate City department or division, or that you've attempted to talk to your neighbor about the problem, or whatever it might be, it can help your case.
Be polite.
Strong emotion is fine; however, rudeness is not effective and is never appropriate. Even if you are angry about some decision, avoid using insults or aggressive behavior. Thoughtful messages will always triumph over hateful messages. The most effective communications are usually not the most noxious kind. Stick to productive forms of communication and focus on finding a solution together. Also, be polite in your follow-up communications. If the Council Member has helped you achieve your goal, send a written thank you note. Very few individuals or groups ever remember to express their appreciation for the services of the Council Members. So, those who do offer their thanks are remembered—and usually have an easier time connecting in the future.
Show that you understand.
If you're making an argument in a situation where there are competing interests, it's a good idea to acknowledge those competing viewpoints. When you respect the interests of others and appreciate the challenge your public officials face, people will be more eager to help you. Also, it's good to keep a sense of proportion when making a request of a Council Member. You should know the importance of your particular concern relative to the big picture; in other words, are you involved in a dispute between neighbors, or between entire neighborhoods? Are you concerned about having a pothole repaved or an entire bridge rebuilt? Make your request, be clear that the issue matters very much to you, but also keep a sense of proportion.
Offer alternative ideas or solutions.
If you've researched your issue, you probably know something about alternatives—including the particular outcome or result that you favor. But elected officials frequently have to find a compromise amongst many viewpoints. If you know of alternative ideas or solutions, let the Council Member know. This will be appreciated. If you have a fresh idea, and you've made a good effort to research its viability, present it. Show your willingness to help find more information if it's needed. This demonstrates that you are a partner in solving a problem.

Detroit mom to stay in jail in daughter's death
A Detroit woman charged with fatally stabbing her daughter three days before the child's ninth birthday pleaded not guilty to a murder charge Thursday as authorities scrambled to determine why the girl and four siblings were not removed from their home weeks ago.
Police responding to a call from neighbors found Tameria Greene bleeding from the chest Sunday on the floor of her family's apartment. She was pronounced dead at a hospital.
The Michigan Department of Human Services said it tried to remove Tameria and her siblings from the home as far back as 2010, but its requests were denied. The most recent petition was filed the day after Thanksgiving, alleging Semeria Greene, 26, had abused her daughter, who had bites on her hand, forearm and face.
"DHS continued to provide court-ordered counseling services to the family as well as conducting in-home visits, the last of which occurred only two days before Tameria's death. We share the grief felt by her loved ones and her community," director Maura Corrigan said in a statement.
Richard Smart III, a referee in the Family Division of Wayne County court, held a hearing on Nov. 23 that lasted just minutes. He recommended no removal and noted that the father of some of Tameria's siblings had moved into the home "to provide protection and supervision," according to records. Judge Lisa Neilson signed the order.
Five days later, another referee, Leslie Graves, held a pretrial hearing. She set a trial on the state's petition and noted the children remained at home. Judge Frank Szymanski signed that order.
Szymanski told The Associated Press that he had no direct role in the Greene case but was deeply troubled by the girl's death.
"I just looked at the file. ... I want to get to the bottom of this. I'm concerned, absolutely," he said. "I need to see the transcript. We remove kids all the time."
Referees preside over hearings in Michigan's local Juvenile Courts and make recommendations in abuse and neglect cases. Like full-fledged judges, they are attorneys. Judges, however, retain the right to intervene.
Graves declined to comment, as did Thomasine Jefferson, an attorney who represented Greene in the child-welfare matter. Messages seeking comment were left with Smart and Neilson.
Greene remains in jail without bail on the felony murder charge, which is the equivalent of first-degree murder. She faces life in prison without parole if convicted. She also is charged with first-degree child abuse.
Defense attorney Cornelius Pitts suggested Greene should undergo a mental-health exam. Magistrate Steve Lockhart said the issue could be raised at the next hearing, on Jan. 16.
"It would appear there is a serious question to the emotional and mental state," Pitts told reporters.
Tameria's brothers, ages 1 to 7, now are in foster care.
Her death came at the end of a particularly brutal year in Detroit. By Thanksgiving, the city had surpassed the 344 criminal homicides reported in all of 2011. Mayor Dave Bing said there were 386 slayings in 2012.
"We've lost respect for each other. We've lost respect for life," Bing said Thursday.

Judge to hear Seattle arena complaint
Case could block arena plan needed in Kings' deal
A judge in Seattle will hear arguments Friday into an environmental claim that could put the breaks on the development of an arena.
Investors have already entered into an agreement to purchase the Sacramento Kings, but a new arena would be needed to help the NBA Board of Governors to approve a sale and move to the Emerald City.
A King County Superior Court judge will hear the case brought forward by Seattle's longshoremen's union, which claims the arena financing agreement between the local government and a potential ownership group violates the state's environmental law.
Longshoremen also say they fear they could lose thousands of maritime and industrial jobs if an arena and entertainment district was built in the port area.
The Maloof family, which owns the Sacramento Kings, reached an agreement to sell a 65 percent controlling interest in the Kings to a Seattle group led by Chris Hansen.
Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson is expected to announce his own counter bid that includes investors willing to buy the team and build an arena downtown.

They drove to our facility under terrible weather conditions, they were calm, professional, and kind. They took a critical patient, and her daughter to Kearney in the same terrible weather conditions. Please let them know we appreciated them and prayed for their safety.
Thanks for what you do!"

Cape Cod homeowner preparing for beach to swallow home
Melinda Krasting's home on the edge of disaster
Melinda Krasting normally spends St. Patrick's Day weekend opening her beachfront home for the season, setting up for nine months of peace and relaxation on the coast.
This weekend, the documentary filmmaker who lives in Wellfleet and New York City, will be packing up and preparing to abandon the home she has owned for 15 years.
Krasting's home is one of two along the ocean coastline in Wellfleet that lost stability during the storm on March 8 and 9.
The storm, which dropped two feet of snow across Massachusetts, created a tremendous amount of coastal erosion, tearing away the sand underneath her home and causing parts of it to tumble down onto the beach.According to the Cape Cod Times, a second home was in the process of being moved back about 25 feet when the storm damage led to them having it demolished.
Krasting's home on Cliff Road was deemed unsafe Tuesday by the Wellfleet building inspector.
This weekend, she'll move her personal stuff out, and then arrange for furniture to be moved out early next week.

Your car is one of the most valuable possessions you own, and one of the most important. Choosing the right insurance policy in Datil New Mexico, can protect your investment and keep you on the road in case of accidents, theft, lawsuits or other auto-related damage. High-quality coverage shouldn't have to break the bank.
Our elite network of independent insurance agents can show you a range of coverage options and prices. We are licensed to work with multiple auto insurance providers, and that means we make the big guys compete for your business. Find an agent above to start shopping, whether you need state-mandated minimums or maximum protection with low premiums and deductibles.
Many people recognize the need to get a life insurance policy, however, they always think "I'll get to it later." You may think that life insurance is puzzling, costly and complicated. You may feel you cannot make a decision on life insurance because you will never have enough information to make the right decision. Postponing this decision leaves you and your family exposed financially.
Assumption #1: I'll always be able to buy life insurance. You could develop a health condition that makes you uninsurable or could make life insurance too costly for you.
Assumption #2: I'll get life insurance later when I'm older or have a family. Life insurance may be needed at all stages of life. Whether married or single, male or female, with or without children, you may have financial obligations that need to be met. No matter where you are in life, life insurance provides financial security.
Assumption #3: My family and I are covered by my employer. To meet the future needs of your family, you need to have 7 to 10 times your annual income. Most group term insurance amounts offered by employers won't meet your needs. And, when you don't work for that employer any longer, you usually lose that coverage
Assumption #4: My husband has life insurance so I don't need it. Women often live longer than men but not always. There are countless stories of men who had to shoulder the family financial burden along with the emotional burden after their wife passed on.
Assumption #5: My family can cover immediate expenses such as: funeral and burial. Burying a spouse or loved one is the most stressful time in a family's life. Having life insurance can reduce and relieve financial concerns for the family.
Make a decision now to ensure your family is covered, contact your insurance professional to assist you in making this decision.

MINNEAPOLIS - Struggling consumer electronics chain Best Buy says a key revenue metric declined during the critical holiday season. While results in the U.S. were flat, its overseas performance faltered on softness in China and Canada.
Sales for November-December can comprise up to 40 per cent of a retailer's annual revenue, making it the most crucial period on the calendar.
Best Buy Co. said Friday that revenue at stores open at least a year fell 1.4 per cent for the nine weeks ended Jan. 5. This figure is a key gauge of a retailer's health because it excludes results from stores recently opened or closed.
Its U.S. performance was flat, but the metric dropped 6.4 per cent internationally.
Total revenue for the holiday period dropped slightly to $12.8 billion.
Online revenue rose 10 per cent.

Hardin-Simmons athletics photo
Hardin-Simmons started with a bang, shot up the polls, then may well have shot itself in the foot last week with four fumbles and an interception at Mississippi College. That makes the Cowboys' home game against Mary Hardin-Baylor, for all intents and purposes, an elimination game.
That, and it might not even be the best game in its conference on Saturday.
We have a full slate this week, with the NESCAC finally joining in. You can join in from wherever you are on Saturday, either by Twitter, using the #d3fb hashtag, on the live chat below or in the blog comments.

i dont understand debuggers. i have no clue how to use them to my advantage. i cna set breakpoints, thats the easy part, but then, whenever i press "debug" nothing happens. it recompiles the program, or in flash, it does nothing, as the breakpoints are in certain frame of actionscript.
but, i have Bloodshed Dev-C++ and i would like to know how to use the debugger, as it might actually help me! (besides recompiling it everytime to notice nothing has really changed!)
i dont have MSVC++, and i dont ever really plan on getting it, the resource editor is top notch, but i dont like the complexity of it (its really not beginner-friendly) so dont tell me how to debug using MSVC++. Bloodshed Dev-C++ is what i gots.

Changelog for pandoc-citeproc-0.10.5
pandoc-citeproc (0.10.5) * Use file-embed instead of hsb2hs for embed_data_files flag (#285). * Allow `&` in bibtex keys (#289). They are discouraged because of problems in tables, but technically they are allowed. * Allow + in bibtex field name (#290). BibLaTeX now allows things like `author+an` for annotations. See "Data Annotations" in the bibtex manual. Note that we don't actually parse the annotations, we just don't crash on bibtex files that include them. * caseTransform: fix corner case where last word has internal periods (#288). E.g. in `www.example.com`, previously `com` was capitalized as the last word. * If there's a list of csl, locale, or abbrev files, use the last one. * Don't catch exceptions in reading CSL file. Previously some exceptions were silently caught, leading to unexpected use of the default. * Util.findFile: return right away if absolute path. * Added mechanism for inserting raw content into delimiters, prefixes, suffixes. So, for example, in your CSL file you can have prefix="{{html}}<i>{{/html}}" and this will turn into RawInline (Format "html") "<i>" rather than, as before Str "<i>", which would get escaped in the output. See jgm/pandoc#3536 for the motivation. * Text.CSL.Pandoc: Simplified code for looking up default CSL. * Fix titlecase bug involving em/en dashes (#284). * Export license from Text.CSL.Data.Embedded. * Added `--license` to CLI and `getLicense` to Text.CSL.Data (API change). * Updated chicago-author-date.csl and locales xml. * Add `getManPage` to Text.CSL.Data and `--man` option to CLI (API change). `pandoc-citeproc --man` now simply spits out the man page in groff format. For a plain text version, use `pandoc-citeproc --man | groff -mman -Tutf8`. For an HTML version, `pandoc-citeproc --man | groff -mman -Thtml`. * Updates to be able to compile and test with current pandoc HEAD. * Automatically link ISBN references to Worldcat (#279). This is similar to existing support for DOIs. Thanks to Eric Marsden. * Text.CSL.Input.Bibtex: export `Lang`, `langToLocale`, `getLangFromEnv` (#281, API change). * Adjusted treatment of `\hyphen` now that pandoc includes trailing space... in RawInline. See jgm/pandoc#1773 and commit f4a452f89174828fea77614a4b6a067fc4675ba5. * Support citation-label variable (#160, Lukas Atkinson). The `citation-label` was not rendered, even when this label was explicitly set in the bibliography. This is now fixed. Citation labels are modelled after citation numbers. In particular, citation labels can also be hyperlinked. API changes: In `Text.CSL,Reference`: The exported type `CLabel` describes a label name in the CSL variables. This allows us to distinguish labels from ordinary strings. This type is analogous to `CNum`. In `Text.CSL.Style`: In `Output` the `OCitLabel` case describes a label in the rendered output. This case is analogous to `OCitNum`. * Allow aeson 1.2. * Fixed overlapping instance problem in test-citeproc w/ recent aeson. pandoc-citeproc (0.10.4.1) * Raise version bounds for xml-conduit. * Use cpphs if embed_data_files on darwin. * Fixed Compat module so it compiles with pandoc 1.9.x and 2.0. * Allow colon to belong to locator numbers (#275). This at least allows 1:22-23 to be interpreted as a page number, though this won't really be useful until we modify the number collapsing code to be sensitive to the colon. pandoc-citeproc (0.10.4) * Fixed 'et al' in certain styles (#274). The `et al` phrase was not being appended in the bibliography in ieee.csl and some others. * Leave ALLCAPS words alone in titlecase transformation. See #273. There is some confusion about the citeproc rules here, but this follows citeproc-js behavior. * Improved title case rules to conform better to CSL spec (#273). We now correctly retain case on mixed-case words and don't decapitalize "small words" when they're the last word. * Use readerSmart in parsing yaml bibliographies (#272). * Bumped some dependency version bounds. * Improved .travis.yml. * Added Text.CSL.Compat.Pandoc module to work around version differences. This allows building with the typeclass branch of pandoc. pandoc-citeproc (0.10.3) * Update to work with pandoc 1.19 (including writerStandalone API change). * Updated test case to use bracketed_spans. Note: this means that tests will fail unless pandoc 1.19 is used. * Fixed pluralization with label for issue (#267). * Factored out `comb` in Text.CSL.Pandoc. * Make it clearer when errors concern CSL parsing (#219). Errors in CSL parsing now point to the CSL file specifically. We convert any error thrown in CSL parsing into an XMLException (from xml-conduit), so the file path will be shown. * Handle EDTF dates in bibtex bibliographies (#240). pandoc-citeproc (0.10.2.2) * Fix overlapping instances with aeson-220.127.116.11 (#263). pandoc-citeproc (0.10.2.1) * Allow pandoc 1.18.x. pandoc-citeproc (0.10.2) * Use linebreaks to simulate display="block" (#85, #261). pandoc-citeproc (0.10.1.4) * Use finer grained Pandoc import statements (Albert Krewinkel). A full import of the Pandoc library leads to name collisions with Pandoc v1.18, so only required functions and datatypes are imported. * Remove unused import. pandoc-citeproc (0.10.1.3) * Fixed compiler warnings. * Setup.hs - removed unnecessary imports. * Travis improvements. Run on stack lts-7, not earlier. Disable optimizations for faster build. Turn on warnings. * Bump pandoc-types to 220.127.116.11 in stack.yaml. pandoc-citeproc (0.10.1.2) * Implemented notes-after-punctuation metadata field (#256). If this is true (the default), citations rendered as footnotes are automatically moved after punctuation. If it is false, footnote citations remain before punctuation, but space is still collapsed before the notes. * Don't require http-client 0.5. This mirrors recent changes to pandoc, which allow 0.4.30.x. * Allow pandoc-types 1.17.*. * Allow xml-conduit 1.4.x (Felix Yan). pandoc-citeproc (0.10.1.1) * Clarify that abbreviations require `form="short"` (Nick Bart). * Allow aeson 1.0.*. * Input.Bibtex: better parsing for month. Don't convert to lowercase if it's not one of the official abbreviations and isn't protected. pandoc-citeproc (0.10.1) * pandoc-citeproc: allow .yaml and .json input files, even without the `bibutils` flag, for conversion to JSON and YAML, resp. * Pluralize locator term when comma-separated series of numbers given (#245). * Don't insert bibliography if there are no entries (#249). * Fixed note field with YAMl bibliographies (#224). Supplementary fields in `note` are parsed only in CSL JSON. * Support latest aeson-pretty (Felix Yan). pandoc-citeproc (0.10) * Allow colons in bibtex field names (John MacFarlane, #220). * Set LANG as well as LC_ALL before translating bibtex (John MacFarlane). This ensures that bibtex will use the locale specified in the document, even if the system locale is different. * Data: Raise CSLLocaleException if locale not found (John MacFarlane). Minor API change: Export CSLLocaleException. * Added DeriveDataTypeable pragma to Data (John MacFarlane). * Bibtex reader: case-insensitive parsing of month names (John MacFarlane). * Bibtex: Export readBibtexInputString', a pure version of readBibtexInputString (John MacFarlane). * Rename readBibtexInput* -> readBibtex* (John MacFarlane, API change). * unTitleCase now lowercases whole word (#234, John MacFarlane). So, for example, unprotected TeV becomes tev, instead of teV. This mimics bibtex's own behavior. * Added caseTransform parameter on readBibtex* functions (#231, John MacFarlane). When set to false, the bibtex reader doesn't do the 'untitlecase' transformation. This is used in Text.CSL.Input.Bibutils, when using bibtex as an intermediate format for conversion from mods, ris, or other formats. Otherwise we get the 'untitlecase' transform when it isn't wanted. * Allow numbers with decimal points to count as "numeric." (#208, John MacFarlane) Thus, we should have "Series 2.2", not "Series, 2.2" with Chicago author-date style. * Fixed capitalization for words following slash (#236, John MacFarlane). * Updated locales. * Fix build failure for --flags=-bibutils mode (Sergei Trofimovich). Reported-by Thomas Beutin https://bugs.gentoo.org/516640. * Add missing -DUSE_BIBUTILS to Cabal build (Vaclav Haisman). pandoc-citeproc (0.9.1.1) * Only changed version number (work around for hackage upload error). pandoc-citeproc (0.9.1) * Fixed YAML/CSL reference type for motion_picture, etc. (#214). Several CSL reference types (`motion_picture`, `legal_case`, ...) use an underscore instead of a hyphen, and these had been incorrectly rendered by pandoc when translating to YAML/CSL. * Fixed handling of dimension and other 'literal' variables (#213). This also affects call-number, scale, language. * Fixed test-citeproc. * Fixed travis builds to use stack. * Only use -rtsopts for executable. * Allow aeson 0.11. * Allow compilation with pandoc 1.17. * Updated locales and chicago-author-date.csl. pandoc-citeproc (0.9) * Allow spaces around CSL note fields. Closes #191. * Add homepage field to .cabal file (Jens Petersen). * Use pandoc 1.16. * Turn on smart quote parsing in reading bib(la)tex. We didn't need this previously, but now we do thanks to changes in pandoc. * Specialize `mkRefMap` to `Reference`, and return empty map for `emptyReference`. * Improved behavior with missing references (API change, #195, #165). Previously in some cases where a citation id wasn't found in the bibliography, a "reference with no printed form" warning was printed instead of "not found." This change fixes that. It also changes some types in ways that make more sense. `processCites` now produces `[[(Cite, Maybe Reference)]]` instead of `[[(Cite, Reference)]]`, and other types are adjusted accordingly. For example, `evalLayout` now has a `Maybe Reference` parameter rather than `Reference`. * Added `hackage-docs.sh` to upload haddocks when Hackage can't build them. * Improved handling of `nocite` (#197). Previously if you had something in `nocite`, then cited it again in the document, pandoc-citeproc would use `ibid`, thinking that the item had already been cited. * Fix for pandoc API change to `writerWrapOptions`. * Allow `SoftBreak` to count as space in some contexts (e.g. splitting). * Fixed path to `chicago-fullnote-bibliography.csl` in test. * Improved error message with illegal 'type' field in YAML bibliographies (#2611). pandoc-citeproc (0.8.1.3) * test-pandoc-citeproc: Better fix for Windows. Use UTF8 strings instead of bytestrings; this helps get line endings right in tests. pandoc-citeproc (0.8.1.2) * Use UTF8 versions of readFile in test program. pandoc-citeproc (0.8.1.1) * Use pandoc's UTF8 versions of getContents, putStrLn, etc. Otherwise we get locale-dependent encodings. pandoc-citeproc (0.8.1) * Improved performance in bibtex cross-reference resolution (#190). * Take 'form' for date-part elements from date if not specified (#116). Previously if the 'form' were unspecified in a date-part element, it would go to the default 'long', even if the date as a whole was 'numeric'. * Transform only uppercase ASCII letters in titlecase transform. This helps us pass one more citeproc test case. * Cleaned up locator parsing code. * Allow roman numeral locators (#173. * Fixed missing dash between months in date ranges (#175). * Fixed `strip-periods` (#185). * Parse supplementary fields in CSL JSON "note" fields (#94). * Support more biblatex markup in converting biblatex bibliographies: `mkbibemph`, `mkbibitalic`, `mkbibbold`, `mkbibparens`, `mkbibbrackets`, `autocap` (Nick Bart, #26). Treat reviews as articles. * Add biblatex keys for additional languages (Nick Bart). * Use HTTPS for DOI resolver (Andrew Dunning). * Add biblatex keys for additional languages (Nick Bart): ca-AD, da-DK, es-ES, fi-FI, it-IT, nl-NL, pl-PL, pt-PT, pt-BR, sv-SE pandoc-citeproc (0.8.0.1) * Allow aeson 0.10.x (Felix Yan). * Add custom Prelude: -Wall clean on ghc 7.10. pandoc-citeproc (0.8) * Use `lang` metadata field to specify locale. `locale` can still be used as before, for backwards compatibility, but `lang` is now preferred. * Put the references section header outside the Div, instead of inside as before.. This interacts better with pandoc's `--section-divs` feature (#176). * Use `refs`, not `references`, for the identifier of the bibliography Div. Unlike `references`, `refs` is not likely to conflict with an autogenerated header identifier (#176). NOTE: workflows designed to work with 0.7.4, with a `<div id="references"></div>` where the bibliography is to go, will need modification (`s/references/refs/`). * Changed local override for default CSL file (#161). Previously you could override the default CSL file by modifying `~/.csl/chicago-author-date.csl`. Now you do it by modifying `~/.csl/default.csl`. To minimize the effect of this change on existing workflows, we will use the version of `chicago-author-date.csl` in `~/.csl`, if there is one, if `~/.csl/default.csl` is not found. * Implemented fallbacks for CSL terms, as per CSL spec. E.g. `verb` is used if `verb-short` is not defined (#72). * Update CSL style, locales (Andrew Dunning). * Setup.hs: got hsb2hs registered as a build-tool. * Setup.hs: avoid depending on non-base modules (esp. process). This can cause problems with older versions of cabal. * Don't raise error if `HOME` isn't defined (#35). * Add more biblatex localization keys (Nick Bart). * Simplified and improved page range collapsing (#168). * Allow multiword locator labels like "sub verbo" (#168). * Remove `parse-names: true` in a Reference after parsing names (#169). * Don't superscript author-in-text numerical citations (#133). This change also removes `unsetAffixes` from `Text.CSL.Style`'s exported functions. This function was only used in one places and is very simple. (API change) * Fixed `embed_data_files` build on OS X (Chris Knox) * Remove brackets from author-in-text numerical citations (#133). * Removed `compressName` transform on JSON output (#169). This transformation prevented the JSON produced from using a fully broken-out specification of the author, instead pushing suffixes and prefixes into the names themselves. * Fixed regression introduced by #163 (#170). pandoc-citeproc (0.7.4) * Bibliography Div has id `references`, in addition to class. * Make sure a link with a year range encompasses the whole range. Previously you'd get [LINK 1996]--[LINK 2003], where both links went to the same citation. Now you get [LINK 1996-2003]. (#146) * Fix linking of DOIs (#163). Now only a part of a prefix that begins a url (`http...`) will be part of the linked text for a DOI. (This part will also be used for the URL, in place of the default `http://doi.org/`, if present.) Other parts of the prefix and suffix will remain outside the linked text. * Use "literal" instead of "other" in producing CSL YAML (#167). * Test suite: better technique to find right executable to test. We now find the test program and locate pandoc-citeproc relative to it. * Change default for parse-names to False. * Add `Paths_pandoc_citeproc` to other-modules. * Allow flexible insertion of bibliography. + If the document contains a Div element with id `references`, the bibliography will be inserted in it (after any other content in the Div). + Otherwise, a Div with id `references` will be created at the end of the document as before. * Fix parsing of particles with hyphens on family names (#130). * Handle `#+LINK_CITATIONS` metadata in org-mode. The values `true`, `yes`, and `on` are recognized as true values (case-insensitive) (#159). pandoc-citeproc (0.7.3.1) * Moved tests from data-files to extra-source-files. * List biblatex conversion tests in cabal extra-source-files. * Updated tests for changes in yaml library (which now puts quotes arounds strings that could be read as numbers, #158). pandoc-citeproc (0.7.3) * Add Walkable instances for Formatted (Sean Leather). * Allow empty end year in Zotero workaround, e.g. `2005_` (Nick Bart). * man/Makefile - removed unnecessary dependency. * Fixed test-citeproc.hs for change in `ProcOpts`. * Cleaned up Setup.hs. Now takes into account destdir in copying man page. * Don't add space after particles ending with "-" (Nick Bart). * Names.hs: Add Unicode "Latin Extended Additional" to isByzantine (Nick Bart). * Allow vector 0.11. pandoc-citeproc (0.7.2) * Added `link-citations` metadata field (#141). If this has a true value, citations in author-date and numerical styles are linked to their corresponding bibliography entries. Otherwise not. (In previous versions of 0.7.x, this linking was the default. Now it must be enabled explicitly by setting this field.) * Fixed locale lookup with two-letter codes (#140). * Updated locales and chicago-author-date.csl. * Text.CSL.Data: Remove spurious reference to ar-AR. * Updated tests to escape literal `[` and `]` (to match new pandoc markdown writer's behavior). * Fixed `make update` to grab chicago-author-date.csl from correct URL. * Bumped upper bound to allow aeson 0.9.*. pandoc-citeproc (0.7.1.1) * Fixed regression in numerical citation collapsing (#131). pandoc-citeproc (0.7.1) * Improvements to numerical styles: + Space is now inserted after the reference number in the bibliography when `second-field-align` is `margin` or `flush`. + Author-in-text citations are now treated just like other citations in numerical styles. So, brackets are used, and the term "Reference" is not added: instead of `Reference 1 says...` we have `[1] says...`. This seems to accord better with e.g. IEEE practice. + Improved citation collapsing. Now both the new and the old versions of `ieee.csl` work properly. Previously brackets were dropped with the new version (#55). + Use new `ieee.csl` for testing. pandoc-citeproc (0.7.0.2) * Bump version bound for xml-conduit. pandoc-citeproc (0.7.0.1) * In YAML use pandoc markdown syntax for super, subscript (#128). Added test case for rich text formatting. * Change default for first-reference-note-number to 0 on reading (#128). pandoc-citeproc (0.7) * Improved YAML output: + Fields are now in a deterministic and rational order, id at top. + Blank lines between entries for readability. + Use human-friendlier year, month, etc. rather than date-part. + The test suite no longer normalizes YAML output before comparing, since we now control the order of fields. * Use `locale` in metadata in converting bibtex (#98). * Use `locale` in metadata for unicode collation, when compiled with the `unicode_collation` flag (#122). * Made pandoc-citeproc sensitive to metadata fields `reference-section-title` and `suppress-bibliography` (Jesse Rosenthal). The former specifies a title for a new reference section. The second suppresses the bibliography altogether. Existing documents should behave as before if these fields are not used. * Strip empty span elements from output (#126). * Allow conversion FROM yaml to other formats (#124). * Improved CSL JSON output. Use the rich markup syntax described at http://docs.citationstyles.org/en/1.0/release-notes.html#rich-text-markup-within-fields * Fixed extraction of language from LANG env variable in Bibtex (#98). * Fixed `ghc-prof-options` so we don't get warning with recent cabal. Added French, German localizations to Bibtex converter (#98). * Bibtex: Use type field to further specify mastersthesis or phdthesis (#98). * Ensure that "et al" has a space before it, if no delimiter defined (#93). * Allow "et al" to be formatted (#91). * Depend on `setenv` package for the `setEnv` function, which is found only in base 4.7+. * Fixed problem with droppped final punctuation in some footnotes (#82). * `Text.CSL.Util`: Removed unused `readable`. Renamed `toShow` to `uncamelize`. Use `ppShow` in `tr'`. * Use `doi.org` instead of `dx.doi.org` (#107). * Fixed treatment of `motion_picture` title (#118). * Include preface and suffix of DOI in linked text (#107). * Added `--regenerate` flag to `test-pandoc-citeproc`. * Added `hyperlink` field to `Formatting` (API change). * Made hyperlinked citations work with numerical and author-year styles. * Bibtex: improved short title logic. * Map biblatex title/maintitle to CSL volume-title/title (Nick Bart). * Fix CSL dependent style support (Tim Lin, #105). * Added support for PMCID and PMID fields in bibtex (jgm/pandoc#1923). * Map biblatex `inreference` to `EntryEncyclopedia` rather than `NoType` (#88). * Wrap bibliography entries in Div with id=ref-citationId * Updated `chicago-author-date.csl`. * Allow compilation against pandoc 1.14 (the next release). * Removed obsolete `small_base` cabal flag. * Added `debug` cabal flag which turns on tracing. pandoc-citeproc (0.6.0.1) * Added pandoc-types upper bound. * Removed `auto-all` from profiling options. * Fixed CSL dependent style support (#105, Tim Lin). * Updates to build with GHC 7.10.1 (Mark Wright). pandoc-citeproc (0.6) * The CSL parser has been replaced with a new, xml-conduit based module, which does not rely on C libraries and should be easier to repair and extend. The module has been checked against the old module with all CSL files in the citeproc repository. The only differences are with attribute values beginning or ending with a nonbreaking space (e.g. with French guillemets), and the new parser's behavior (preserving the spaces) is clearly correct. Parsing was measured as about twice as fast in a benchmark. * The `hexpat` cabal flag has been removed. * The old `Text.CSL.Pickle` and `Text.CSL.Pickle.*` modules have been removed. * Plural locator labels (e.g. 'pp.') are now used for page ranges containing en-dashes (#84). * `Elements` has been removed from `Element`. It was entirely unnecessary, used only once (and dispensibly) in `Text.CSL.Eval`. This change results in cleaner code. * Improved man page generation. * Updated `chicago-author-date.csl` default style. pandoc-citeproc (0.5) * Revised locator parsing: + parseLocator now looks for the "short" forms of terms in the style's locale(s). So, in English you'd use "p." or "ch."; in German, "S." or "Kap." + Note that the locator label must match what is in the locale file, including the period. Before this change, you could omit the period: "p 12" or "p. 12" would both give you a "page." Also, previously, the locators were case-insensitive; now they must be in the same case as in the locale. (English "p.", German "S.".) + "no." no longer gets parsed as a "note": closes #74. + Text.CSL.Reference no longer exports parseLocator. parseLocator is now used only locally, in Text.CSL.Pandoc. * Data.getLocale: Try 2-letter locale lookup if longer locale not found. This should fix an error that occured with less common locales (jgm/pandoc#1548). * Added parseNames field to Agent. Set parse-names=true when writing CSL JSON and collapsing suffix or particles into first or last names. * Properly handle agents with 'parse-names' set to 'true' (#77). Note that parse-names defaults to true if not set, as in Zotero. * Reference: added explicit exports. * Styles: Added explicit export list. * Eval: Fixed isNumericString to recognize en dash (#74). * Allow bibtex double quotes to be escaped inside {} (jgm/pandoc#1568). * Titlecase transform improvements (#76). * Added two csl files missing from tests/. * Performance improvements: Avoid unnecessary Output groupings. Eliminated some unnecessary generic traversals. (#71) * Makefile: Use cpphs. Text.CSL.Data seems to break on OSX 10.9 without it. * Added prof target to Makefile * Test suite: don't exit with success if there were errors! pandoc-citeproc (0.4.0.1) * Interpret date literals with underscores (e.g. "2004_2006") as ranges. This covers a common workaround for a deficiency in Zotero (#65). * Correctly handle "literal" in CSL date (#65). * Fixed erroneous capitalization of the first ibid. in a citation, even in the middle of a sentence (#68). Removed "ibid-c", "ibid-locator-c" classifications. * Pandoc: Capitalize first word of citation note, unless span=nocase. Previously we only capitalized citations. This captures ibid and the like. * Text.CSL.Util.toCapital: respect `<span class="nocase">`. * Turn small caps into SmallCaps element in reading CSL JSON (#67). Either the <span style="font-variant:small-caps"> or the <sc> variant may be used. * Added "ca", "c", "et" to list of short words in titlecase transforms (#66). * Fixed some errors in the no-author test case. * test-pandoc-citeproc: Avoid running tests twice! * Check for en dash in checking for page ranges (#70). * Removed unused texmath build-depend. pandoc-citeproc (0.4) * Fixed #58 - previously not all substitute alternatives were tried. * Made first parameter of OName an Agent, not a String (API change). Also moved Agent from Reference to Style. * test-pandoc-citeproc: run tests on all matching files in the directory. This removes the need to recompile when new tests are added. * Style: Fixed appendWithPunct (mappend for Formatted). One definition was wrong, causing commas to be lost in certain places (#57). * Support \nocite{*}. If the `nocite` metadata filed contains a citation with identifier `*`, all entries in the bibliography are included in the references (#64). * Bump upper bound for aeson. * Removed span nodecor around 'ser.' (#60). * Print series as "3rd ser." (using locale's ordinal) (#60). * Added scaffolding for 'ordinalize' and infrastructure for accessing locale information to Bibtex. * Export new parseLocale from Text.CSL.Parser. * Move punctuation before fn in in-text citation before punctuation (#59). * Updated locales and chicago-author-date.csl. * Use collection-title for series, even for articles (#60). * Fixed locator parsing so capital roman numerals are legal numbers (#61). * Map bookinbook -> chapter (#62). * Better error message from parseString. * Remove space before superscript citation (pandoc #1327). * Fixed spurious "et al" problem (#27). * Match biblatex's method for separating von from last name, for biblatex. For bibtex, we match the documented bibtex algorithm as before (#50). Test case: Drummond de Andrade, Carlos. bibtex makes "Drummond de" a dropping particle. biblatex takes "Drummond de Andrade" to be the last name. * Leave off bibliography if `suppress-bibliography` has a true value in the document metadata (#40, with thanks to Jesse Rosenthal). * Try empty (null) 'csl' as if no 'csl' was specified. (The default chicago-author-date.csl is then used.) * Fixed #51: empty braces with date range. * Set pageFirst automatically from page range (#31). * Bibtex input: set page-first automatically. * Fixed capitalization of first word in sentence (#25). E.g. "foo bar baz: bazbaz foo" should turn into "Foo Bar Baz: Bazbaz Foo" in titlecase, but was turning into "foo Bar Baz: bazbaz Foo." * pandoc-citeproc: Allow conversion of mods bibliographies (#28). * readCSLFile now supports dependent styles (#30). * Removed network flag. We now use pandoc's fetchItem. * Changed type of findFile, so it returns a Maybe. * Documented fact that you can specify a URL under 'csl:'. * Added locale parameter to readCSLFile (API change). readCSLFile also now looks in ~/.csl for the file, if it isn't found locally. * Moved findFile to Util. * Bibtex/biblatex: map "unpublished" to "speech" if the record contains "eventtitle", "eventdate", or "venue". Otherwise map it to "manuscript" as before (#44). * Look for chicago-author-date.csl in ~/.csl if no csl specified. If not found there, use the chicago-author-date.csl that comes with the distribution (#48). * Improved case transform behavior with punctuation. Previously capitalization might change after a word-internal period or apostrophe. Now internal punctuation only signals a word boundary if it is a dash or single quote character. pandoc-citeproc (0.3.1) * Marked final heading (if present) as "unnumbered" (pandoc #1277). * Treat empty 'references' (empty string) as empty list. * Fixed titlecase transformation of words containing '. * Fixed punctuation in notes. * Improved test suite. * FromJSON for Formatted: handle block lists as well as inline. * Require yaml >= 0.8.8.2. * Fixed spacing problem with citations in notes in footnote styles (pandoc #1036). * Updated chicago-author-date.csl and locales (#34). * Move punctuation inside quotes, depending on style. This is activated by the `punctuation-in-quote` locale option, which has a default per locale but can be overridden in the style. This gives more flexibility. (Thanks to Jesse Rosenthal.) * Moved `isPunctuationInQuote` to `Text.CSL.Style` and rewrote. Previously it was in `Text.CSL.Output.Pandoc`. It doesn't need to use generics and no longer does. * Fixed recognition of "byzantine" names. Names with curly apostrophes were being counted as non-byzantine, and printed given-first with no space (#39). * Fixed representation of reference types to conform to CSL (#24): `motion_picture`, `legal_case`, `musical_score`, `personal_communication`. pandoc-citeproc (0.3.0.1) * Require ghc-prim if ghc < 7.6 (needed for generics). pandoc-citeproc (0.3) * Removed biblio2yaml. Instead, use pandoc-citeproc with the --bib2yaml or --bib2json option. (#20) * pandoc-citeproc --bib2json will convert bibtex/biblatex to CSL compatible JSON bibliographies. * Updated locale files for correct textual date ranges in e.g. the da-DK locale. Use form="ordinal" instead of a period as suffix. (#16, #18) * Support new langid and langidopts biblatex fields. (#11) * Made test-pandoc-citeproc work in all locales. (#19) It now tests the executable rather than the library function. * Fixed disambiguation with multivolume works (#14). * Improved titlecase/unTitlecase to be sensitive to colons, question marks, and exclamation marks, after which the next character sohuld be capitalized even in sentence case (pandoc #1102). * The "locale" filed in metadata will now override a style's default locale. This can also be set by the command line: --metadata locale=fr-FR (#10). * Use CSL-compatible date-parts for dates in YAML/JSON bibliographies. * Made FromJSON for Reference more forgiving. Suitable strings are coerced into integer values. (pandoc #1094) * Fixed extra punctuation at end of footnote (#13). * Reference: Always use array in JSON for dates, agents. * Bibtex parser: Don't fail on entry with no title. * Bibliography output: 'given' is now a string, not an array. The string will be split on spaces into a list of given names. Note that an array can also be used. But we write a plain string, to match the citeproc json schema. * Fixed spacing bug in date ranges (#7). * Names: Fixed formatLabel so it works for editortranslator. This fixes a bug for cases where editor = translator (#9). * Text.CSL.Eval.Date: Fixed bugs with date ranges. Ranges within the same year were raising an error "Prelude.init: empty list" (#7). * Util: Export tr' and init'. * Text.CSL.Proc.Disamb: Correct definition of allTheSame. * Improved disambiguation. Now we correctly handle the case with no author but title. * Consider names too when determining date disambiguations. Previously if you had two distinct names needing disambiguation for the same date, the letters would not start over with 'a' for the second name. * Added Generic instances for the types in Style and Reference.

The White House launched three new tools to help accelerate broadband infrastructure deployment on federally owned property.
The White House launched three new tools to help accelerate broadband infrastructure deployment across the nation, specifically on federally owned land.
According to a Sept. 16 White House blog post, the Obama administration is trying to make it easier for companies to install broadband infrastructure on federally owned properties and roads – nearly 30 percent of all land in the U.S. (including roughly 10,000 buildings). Toward that end, the President signed an executive order last year to make private-sector broadband construction projects on those roadways and buildings cheaper and more efficient.
The three new tools are intended to encourage broadband buildouts, particularly in underserved communities. A collaboration of 14 federal agencies tasked with managing federal properties and roads developed the tools and drafted a report to highlight progress to date on the broadband executive order.
The map pinpoints U.S. General Services Administration owned buildings and parcels of land. According to the White House, the map can help service providers identify where commercial antennas can be placed to support wireless networks. The map also overlays other data, to point out things like environmentally protected areas and land protected by tribal sovereignty.
The guide outlines best practices and policies to better coordinate construction activities among different carriers by taking advantage of previously scheduled construction. The idea is that a coordinated approach will help reduce network deployment costs on federal roadways by up to 90 percent.
The toolkit serves as a guide to help companies access necessary paperwork involved with broadband infrastructure deployment: permitting forms, lease agreements and other federal documents. According to the blog post, federal agencies are working towards simpler and more streamlined application processes, like developing a single master application to deploy broadband on federal land, for example.
Despite what some may consider progress, other experts claim the White House's recent actions won't effectively address the lack of broadband access issue. Christopher Mitchell, director of the Telecommunications as Commons Initiative for the Institute for Local Self-Reliance – an advocacy group for community-developed broadband – said the new White House efforts will have little impact because he feels bigger, politically influenced telecom firms will dominate the market, smoking out any competition, like potential municipal networks.
Currently 19 states prohibit or discourage the development of municipal networks, Mitchell said, which means that only a few telecom providers will continue to dominate the broadband market.
"Over 400 local governments have already invested in fiber networks to serve local businesses and/or residents because they understand that state and federal programs will not address real Internet access challenges," Mitchell said. "Communities are smart to take action themselves rather than waiting for Washington, D.C., or major telecommunications companies to build the necessary networks."

Google is providing the web development community with an intriguing glimpse under the hood at some of the fundamental building blocks of the company's most popular web applications. The search giant has opened the source code of its comprehensive JavaScript library collection and is making it available to third-party developers for widespread adoption. Google also opened the source code of its own JavaScript compression tools.
The library, called Closure, includes an extraordinarily diverse assortment of capabilities with functionality ranging from JSON serialization to standard user interface widgets. All of the features are cross-browser compatible and can be readily adopted without marginalizing any users. The library consists primarily of helper functions and user interface widgets, many of which are recognizable from popular Google applications.
The library fills some of the gaps in JavaScript and has features that ameliorate a number of the language's historical weaknesses. For example, it has a mechanism that brings conventional object-oriented inheritance to JavaScript. It also provides a namespace system and support for module loading with dependency resolution. The source code is distributed under the Apache License and is available for download from the Google Code web site. The company has published API reference documentation and some introductory tutorials to help prospective adopters get started with the library.
In addition to opening the library, Google has also announced the availability of the Closure Compiler, a JavaScript compression and optimization tool with a number of advanced features. In addition to optimization and compression, the compiler can also conduct basic code analysis to help identify certain kinds of programming errors. Like the library, the compiler is open source and distributed under the Apache License.
The release of the Closure library and compiler were announced today at the Google Code blog.
"[Closure] started as 20% projects and hundreds of Googlers have contributed thousands of patches. Today, each Closure Tool has grown to be a key part of the JavaScript infrastructure behind web apps at Google," the Closure team wrote. "That's why we're particularly excited (and humbled) to open source them to encourage and support web development outside Google. We want to hear what you think, but more importantly, we want to see what you make."
There is obviously a lot of overlap between Closure and other popular JavaScript libraries such as Dojo, but it still offers a lot of unique value. Closure Compiler is also compelling and appears to be competitive with other JavaScript compression solutions.

The oil and natural gas sector as well as facilities involved in carbon sequestration may be added to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's national mandatory greenhouse gas reporting system.
The agency is proposing the following sectors be added:
Methane is the primary GHG emitted from oil and natural gas systems and is more than 20 times as potent as CO2 at warming the atmosphere, while fluorinated gases are even stronger and can stay in the atmosphere for thousands of years. Data collected from facilities that inject CO2 underground would enable EPA to track the amount of CO2 that is injected and in some cases require a monitoring strategy for detecting potential emissions to the atmosphere.
The data will also allow businesses to track their own emissions, compare them to similar facilities, and identify cost effective ways to reduce their emissions in the future.
Data from these sectors will provide a better understanding of where GHGs are coming from and will help EPA and businesses develop effective policies and programs to reduce emissions.
"Gathering this information is the first step toward reducing greenhouse emissions and fostering innovative technologies for the clean energy future," said EPA Administrator Lisa P. Jackson. "It's especially important to track potent gases like methane, which traps more than 20 times as much heat as carbon and accelerates climate change. Once we know where we must act, American innovators and entrepreneurs can develop new technologies to protect our atmosphere and fight climate change."
EPA finalized the mandatory GHG reporting requirement in October of 2009. That rule required 31 industry sectors, covering 85 percent of total U.S. GHG emissions, to track and report their emissions.
The agency also is proposing to require all facilities in the reporting system, including those proposed today, to provide information on their corporate ownership.
Under these proposals, newly covered sources would begin collecting emissions data on Jan. 1, 2011 with the first annual reports submitted to EPA on March 31, 2012. These proposals will be open for public comment for 60 days after publication in the Federal Register. The agency will also hold public hearings on these proposals on April 19 in Arlington, Va. and April 20, in Washington, D.C.
