Abstract:
Robin Rowbury, Life Sciences Editor of Science Progress since 1995, died in July 2012 following a long battle with cancer. Despite his illness he continued working right up until May this year both writing and promoting the journal wherever he could. In this issue, we are proud to feature his final article in which he describes the multi-talented character who was Robert Hooke. However, first we are publishing some tributes to Robin whom we remember in the office as a gentle man with a very dry sense of humour, as well as a hard-working author and editor. We shall all certainly miss him. Professor David Phillips CBE, FRSC who worked as Physical Sciences Editor alongside Robin describes him as a real gentleman and an excellent academic. Dr David Smith, his lifelong colleague from University College London remembers Robin as a supportive friend and colleague, a great teacher, and a gifted research scientist. He influenced many lives, and numerous students owe their successful careers to his guidance. These sentiment are reflected in three more tributes from former colleagues.

Abstract Punt, A. E., Smith, D. C., and Smith, A. D. M. 2011. Among-stock comparisons for improving stock assessments of data-poor stocks: the “Robin Hood” approach. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 68: 972–981. An approach is outlined for conducting stock assessments in which parameters are estimated for multiple stocks at the same time. Information from data-rich stock assessments, e.g. trends in fishing mortality, and values for parameters of selectivity functions are provided to data-poor assessments in the form of penalties on the estimated parameters, which leads to stock assessments for the most data-poor stocks being informed by those for the most data-rich stocks. The method is applied for example purposes to data for nine stocks in Australia's southern and eastern scalefish and shark fishery. The results of the application confirm that results for data-rich stocks are little impacted by being assessed in conjunction with data-poor stocks and that the results for data-poor stocks can be qualitatively different when information for data-rich stocks is taken into account.

Abstract:
Statement of the problem. The article deals with the main mythological projections of the English series Robin of Sherwood, a cult mystical film of the 1980s dedicated to the legendary English robber Robin Hood. The purpose of the article is to holistically analyze the main mythological images and plots that are recreated over the course of three seasons of the series and form its ideological and compositional basis. The research methodology is determined by the traditions of mythopoetic analysis based on the studies of famous Western European mythologists (M. Oldhouse-Green, S. Knight, D. Campbell, B. Branston, P. Smith, S. Cox). As a result of the study, an interpretation is given to the images of Robin Hood and Herne the hunter, mythologems of human sacrifice, including the image of Kromm Cruach, the Wild Hunt. It is proved that the magical artifacts of the series are the Silver Arrow, the Albion sword, King Arthur’s Round Table, Sefer Yetzirah (Book of Creation), the main treatise of Jewish mysticism of the 2-6th centuries n. e., the “ring of nine maidens”, the genesis of which is associated with mythological ideas about the Celtic goddess Brigid and the Welsh goddess Arianrhod. The conclusions substantiate the reasons that made this series cult for the era of the 1980s. It is noted that many screen versions of the story of the English noble robber in the 21st century are directorial responses to the demands of their time.

Abstract:
An influential paper by Kleibergen (2005, Econometrica 73, 1103–1123) introduces Lagrange multiplier (LM) and conditional likelihood ratio-like (CLR) tests for nonlinear moment condition models. These procedures aim to have good size performance even when the parameters are unidentified or poorly identified. However, the asymptotic size and similarity (in a uniform sense) of these procedures have not been determined in the literature. This paper does so.This paper shows that the LM test has correct asymptotic size and is asymptotically similar for a suitably chosen parameter space of null distributions. It shows that the CLR tests also have these properties when the dimension p of the unknown parameter θ equals 1. When p ≥ 2, however, the asymptotic size properties are found to depend on how the conditioning statistic, upon which the CLR tests depend, is weighted. Two weighting methods have been suggested in the literature. The paper shows that the CLR tests are guaranteed to have correct asymptotic size when p ≥ 2 when the weighting is based on an estimator of the variance of the sample moments, i.e., moment-variance weighting, combined with the Robin and Smith (2000, Econometric Theory 16, 151–175) rank statistic. The paper also determines a formula for the asymptotic size of the CLR test when the weighting is based on an estimator of the variance of the sample Jacobian. However, the results of the paper do not guarantee correct asymptotic size when p ≥ 2 with the Jacobian-variance weighting, combined with the Robin and Smith (2000, Econometric Theory 16, 151–175) rank statistic, because two key sample quantities are not necessarily asymptotically independent under some identification scenarios.Analogous results for confidence sets are provided. Even for the special case of a linear instrumental variable regression model with two or more right-hand side endogenous variables, the results of the paper are new to the literature.

Abstract:
"Art, Depth and Affect in Winter: Metamodernist Contexts of Ali Smith's Novel. The paper discusses Ali Smith’s Winter through the prism of the theory of metamodernism. The novel can be related to the works of authors who reject the cynical sophistication of postmodernist art and appropriate its strategies to focus on authenticity, sincerity, and affect. Drawing on Robin van den Akker, Alison Gibbons, and Timotheus Vermeulen, who maintain that the metamodernist structure of feeling manifests through a mix of/or oscillation between pre-modernist, modernist and postmodernist tropes and devices, the author considers Ali Smith’s novel a mixture of postmodernist, modernist and romantic elements and explores how these elements function in the production of the metamodernist effect of her novel. Keywords: metamodernism, Ali Smith, Winter, art, depth, affect "

Full text
Abstract:
Pigeon Valley Park, on Durban's Berea Ridge, is an approximately 10-ha remnant of coastal forest, which is totally surrounded by suburban housing and roads. As such it is ideal as a study area for investigating the applicability of the MacArthur-Wilson Theory of Island Biogeography (1963,1967) and Diamond's (1975) geometric reserve-design principles to fragmented Coastal Forests in Durban. This study began in January 1989 and the results are reported as at October 1992. Field notes from as far back as 1981 were used to augment the findings of the current work. Research focused on the forest-dwelling, Natal Robin Cossypha natalensis, and territory mapping showed that the reserve supports up to 53 individuals during the breeding season. An annotated checklist and its comparison to historical and regional checklists revealed where localised extinctions may have occurred, and thus identifies a set of coastal forest species which are susceptible to habitat fragmentation. Work on two potential dispersal corridors for bird movement into and out of the valley showed that the reserve is not yet fully isolated to most species which are currently present. On the other hand, there are some forest species which have isolated populations at Pigeon Valley Park, as well as others which do not seem able to establish and maintain viable populations. A set of 'indicator', forest bird species which are susceptible to habitat fragmentation, is defined. Practical management suggestions with the aim of increasing the long-term viability of the area as an avifaunal preserve, are presented.

Abstract:
In this Master in Sculpture Studies we try to expose and analyze the question of space in sculpture, from the beginning of modernism to the present day, mentioning some close previous situations and following R. Krauss logic of expanded space in sculpture. In this sense, we look to a better understanding of how to transit from a closed space to a negative one, through the history of sculpture of the 20th century. Enunciating these same changes, focusing on the different approaches made before, from analyses of both artists thoughts, as well as artist’s deposition on writings and interviews among other sources. We wish above all, not loose sight of the relation’s between, artist, work of art and spectator, having has main concern the historical-conceptual dimension of the works of art in relation with space

Mark Ashurst-McGee, Robin Scott Jensen, and Sharalyn D. Howcroft introduce Foundational Texts of Mormonism: Examining Major Early Sources by noting the rich documentary record of the early history of Mormonism and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Among these the documents from the founding era under Joseph Smith are several major sources to which historians continually turn for information. However, as the authors explain, this is often with little appreciation for the complexity of the circumstances under which these documents were produced. The volume provides several examples of how understanding the complexity of documentary production helps historians to use these sources more critically. The authors individually introduce the chapters of the book.

Abstract:
Websites connect businesses with customers. They are an important medium that facilitates online transactions, a necessity for businesses. The design and usability of an Electronic Commerce (EC) website play an important role in achieving its objectives (Kumar, Smith, & Bannerjee, 2004; Marcus, 2005; Nielsen, 2003; 2005; Krug, 2006; Cappel & Huang, 2007). Recognizing their importance, design and usability aspects of EC websites have been widely researched in both applied and academic research (Lecerof & Paterno, 1998; Lohse & Spiller, 1999; Nielsen, 2000; Cao, Zhang, & Seydel, 2005; Flavian & Guinaliu, 2006; Nathan, Yeow, & Murugesan, 2008; Nathan & Yeow, 2009; Robins & Holmes, 2008). This chapter discusses the recent work with web design and electronic commerce. The importance of usability and user-centered web designs are highlighted. Usability to specific target groups and industries, such as airlines, government, and services portals, are also discussed. Altogether, design guidelines are given for web industries, and recommendations are made for better usability in designing websites.
