Sixty Years in Southern California, 1853-1913: Containing the Reminiscences of Harris Newmark

Sixty years of haematology.

T he diamond anniversary of the Journal of Clinical Pathology (JCP) provides the opportunity to reflect of the past 60 years of haematology. It offers the chance to look back as well as forwards. This has been a time of unforeseeable advances, of which I remember only those of the past 40 years. Review of the articles published by the journal in its first decade immediately makes evident the ch...

Sixty years later.

In writings that preceded the creation of our College, Dr Victor Johnston, our first Executive Director, detailed the need to encourage GPs to be active in hospital care, to create proper postgraduate training for general practice, and to enhance research in general practice.1 Fast forward to today: family medicine is much better defined as a discipline, and we have robust standards of training...

Earthquake Monitoring in Southern California for Seventy-Seven Years

The Southern California Seismic Network (SCSN) has produced the SCSN earthquake catalog from 1932 to the present, a period of more than 77 yrs. This catalog consists of phase picks, hypocenters, and magnitudes. We present the history of the SCSN and the evolution of the catalog, to facilitate user understanding of its limitations and strengths. Hypocenters and magnitudes have improved in qualit...

Sixty Years of Bernoulli Convolutions

The distribution νλ of the random series ∑ ±λ is the infinite convolution product of 1 2 (δ−λn + δλn). These measures have been studied since the 1930’s, revealing connections with harmonic analysis, the theory of algebraic numbers, dynamical systems, and Hausdorff dimension estimation. In this survey we describe some of these connections, and the progress that has been made so far on the funda...
