Ryan Grim has posted messages from the publisher of the LA Times. I still don’t know what to think, but it’s easy to see that print media is in for it. #LATimes #printmedia #electionendorsement #editorial #editorialboard

Oh, SO courageous of them.
NOT!!!!

If they really wanted to send a message, these cowardly editorial boards would have DEFIED their respective owner's selfish desires ("I want a contract, tax cut, etc." ) and endorsed Harris for the GOOD OF THEIR READERS. Then they could have been fired. They lose their jobs either way.

Then they would have been heroes. Now they are just simps.

…The #WashingtonPost's investigative team has routinely reported on wrongdoing & allegations of illegality by #Trump …& his associates. The #EditorialBoard, which is operated apart from the newsroom, has repeatedly declared that Trump's actions in office & his rhetoric as a candidate have rendered him #unfit for office.

#WaPo earned a #PulitzerPrize for its examination of what Trump did in Jan 2021 to encourage his supporters to deny the formal #certification of President #Biden's #election.

Colleagues were said to be "shocked" & uniformly negative. Editor-at-large #RobertKagan, who has been highly critical of #Trump as #autocratic, told NPR he had #resigned from the #EditorialBoard as a consequence.

Fmr #WashingtonPost Executive Editor Martin Baron, who led the newsroom to acclaim during #Trump's presidency, denounced the decision starkly.

A couple of months ago, I issued a call for new Editors of the Open Journal of Astrophysics. That was very successful and we added a number of new Editors. The complete list (of 20 members) follows:

Peter Coles* (Department of Theoretical Physics, Maynooth University, Ireland). Cosmology, astrophysics, statistics and methodology.

Thierry Appourchaux (CNRS, Institut d’Astrophysique Spatiale, Orsay, France). Space instrumentation, astroseismology, helioseismology, statistics and methodology.

Emory (Ted) Bunn (Department of Physics, University of Richmond, USA). Relativity, cosmology.

Walter Dehnen (Astronomisches Rechen-Institut, University of Heidelberg, Germany). Stellar dynamics, galaxy dynamics, galaxies, bars, Milky-Way dynamics, Gaia, numerical methods, N-body techniques, smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH).

Philipp Edelmann (Los Alamos National Laboratory, New Mexico, USA). Stellar astrophysics, hydrodynamics, high-performance computing, supernovae, internal waves, stellar evolution, numerical methods.

Andrew Jaffe (Department of Physics, Imperial College, London, UK). Astrophysics, statistics and methodology, cosmology.

Harley Katz (Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics, University of Chicago, USA). Galaxy formation and evolution, numerical simulations

Lucyna Kedziora-Chudczer (School of Physics, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia). Active galactic nuclei, polarimetry, atmospheres of planets, exoplanets, solar system planets.

Julien Larena (Laboratoire Univers et Particules de Montpellier, Université de Montpellier, France). Cosmology, gravitation, lensing, large-scale structure, general relativity.

Manuela Magliocchetti (National Institute of Astrophysics, Rome, Italy). Cosmology, galaxies, active galactic nuclei (AGN).

Sean McGee (Department of Physics & Astronomy, University of Birmingham, UK). Galaxy formation, galaxy clusters, galaxy surveys.

Manolis Plionis (Department of Physics, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece). Observational cosmology, extragalactic astrophysics, large-scale structure, active galactic nuclei.

Alkistis Pourtsidou (Higgs Centre & Institute for Astronomy, Edinburgh, UK). Cosmology, large-scale structure of the Universe, radio astronomy, galaxy surveys.

Justin Read (School of Mathematics and Physics, University of Surrey, UK). Dark matter, cosmology, galaxy formation and evolution, dwarf galaxies, milky way, galactic dynamics, galactic archaeology, computational modeling.

Numerical methods, in particular N-body codes and integration methods for planetary systems, planet formation, stochastic processes, planet migration, celestial mechanics, and Saturn’s rings.

Aleks Scholz (School of Physics & Astronomy, University of St Andrews, UK). Exoplanets, brown dwarfs, protoplanetary disks, stellar evolution, star formation.

Elena Sellentin (Sterrewacht Leiden, Leiden University, The Netherlands). Applied Mathematics, Cosmology, Statistics, Statistical Inference.

Elena Terlevich (Instituto Nacional de Astrofísica, Óptica y Electrónica, Puebla, Mexico). Stellar populations in galaxies, observational cosmology, violent star formation, element abundances, dynamics of stellar systems.

Bingbing Wang (Center for Space Plasma and Aeronomic Research, University of Alabama in Huntsville, USA.) Particle astrophysics, MHD turbulence, cosmic rays acceleration, cosmic ray propagation in the Galaxy and heliosphere.

Apologies to anyone who volunteered but has not yet received a reply from me. I’ve been a bit preoccupied these last weeks! The call is still open, though. Here are the areas of arXiv covered by the journal:

  1. astro-ph.GA – Astrophysics of Galaxies. Phenomena pertaining to galaxies or the Milky Way. Star clusters, HII regions and planetary nebulae, the interstellar medium, atomic and molecular clouds, dust. Stellar populations. Galactic structure, formation, dynamics. Galactic nuclei, bulges, disks, halo. Active Galactic Nuclei, supermassive black holes, quasars. Gravitational lens systems. The Milky Way and its contents
  2. astro-ph.CO – Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics. Phenomenology of early universe, cosmic microwave background, cosmological parameters, primordial element abundances, extragalactic distance scale, large-scale structure of the universe. Groups, superclusters, voids, intergalactic medium. Particle astrophysics: dark energy, dark matter, baryogenesis, leptogenesis, inflationary models, reheating, monopoles, WIMPs, cosmic strings, primordial black holes, cosmological gravitational radiation
  3. astro-ph.EP – Earth and Planetary Astrophysics. Interplanetary medium, planetary physics, planetary astrobiology, extrasolar planets, comets, asteroids, meteorites. Structure and formation of the solar system
  4. astro-ph.HE – High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena. Cosmic ray production, acceleration, propagation, detection. Gamma ray astronomy and bursts, X-rays, charged particles, supernovae and other explosive phenomena, stellar remnants and accretion systems, jets, microquasars, neutron stars, pulsars, black holes
  5. astro-ph.IM – Instrumentation and Methods for Astrophysics. Detector and telescope design, experiment proposals. Laboratory Astrophysics. Methods for data analysis, statistical methods. Software, database design
  6. astro-ph.SR – Solar and Stellar Astrophysics. White dwarfs, brown dwarfs, cataclysmic variables. Star formation and protostellar systems, stellar astrobiology, binary and multiple systems of stars, stellar evolution and structure, coronas. Central stars of planetary nebulae. Helioseismology, solar neutrinos, production and detection of gravitational radiation from stellar systems.

We are looking for experienced scientists in any of these areas, and it would indeed be useful to have people who can cover a range of subjects (as some of our existing editors do), but there I think we’re still a bit short on High-Energy Astrophysics, Solar and Stellar Physics, and Galactic Astrophysics. I’d also like to see a better gender balance so applications from female scientists are particularly welcomed, as are astrophysicists from geographical areas not currently covered. The Open Journal of Astrophysics is intended to be a global enterprise!

Please follow the instructions here if you would like to volunteer!

Auszug aus dem Fragen zur Entscheidungsfindung Ja Nein

Würden Sie Ihre Forschungsergebnisse in dieser Zeitschrift publizieren?
Sollten Sie diese Frage klar mit „nein“ beantworten, ist es ratsam, dem
Board nicht beizutreten.

Stimmen Sie mit den Zielen der Zeitschrift überein?
Viele gewinnorientiert arbeitende Verlage stehen aufgrund ihrer hohen
Profite (auf Kosten der Wissenschaft) und wegen Datenschutzbedenken
immer wieder in der Kritik. Nicht gewinnorientiert arbeitende OpenAccess-Zeitschriften hingegen fördern den freien Austausch von Wissen.
Erfüllt die Zeitschrift verlegerische Qualitätsstandards?

Wenn Sie sich unsicher sind und es sich um eine Open-Access-Zeitschrift

Medical Aid In Dying up for Gov Carney’s signature 🙏

“End-of-life options can provide dignity, independence and choice to Delawareans facing the gravest health challenges.

If the governor is unable to sign the bill — which we believe he should — he should let allow it to become law without his signatue.”

Delaware #NewsJournal #EditorialBoard supports medical-aid-in-dying.

Gov. #Carney must sign legislation allowing it

“Last week, after an emotionally charged debate, the #Delaware state Senate, in an 11-10 vote, passed a bill that would give #TerminallyIll Delawareans aid-in-dying options.

House Bill 140 — the Ron Silverio/Heather Block End of Life Options Law — allows “mentally capable, terminally ill” adults who have received a “prognosis of six months or less to live” to request and obtain self-ingested medication to end their lives peacefully.“

Text Shot: Delaware supports aid-in-dying legislation

Consider:

A 2020 poll found broad support for aid-in-life legislation in Delaware. Overall, 72% of Delaware voters, 77% of Wilmington voters, 70% of New Castle County voters, 71% of Kent County voters, 69% of Sussex County voters, 72% of Democratic voters, 75% of Independent voters and 67% of Republican voters, support medical aid-in-dying legislation.
The Delaware Nurses Association, Delaware Coalition of Nurse Practitioners and Delaware Psychological Association all endorsed the legislation.
