i need a volcano... the database i need for current search has disappeared - again - from the proquest interface (in it goes)... a major physics publisher has cut off my lab saying that we're not part of my parent institution... at the same time they send me an e-mail asking for a testimonial! In they go!

Small by comparison, but the goddamn CMS not only doesn't auto-save revisions, its editing screen is set up such that if the upload fails, the Back button is also broken, so the revisions are GONE. There went twenty minutes. - Christina Pikas - - (Edit | Remove)

Christina. Helpful to me though. Client has been saying couldn't find a database in Proquest and I couldn't replicate issue. Maybe its the same random disappearing act! - Christina Pikas - - (Edit | Remove)

does someone have a minute to check something for me? this pdf of whale studies looks like it's chock-a-block full of links, but they don't go anywhere for me and it's locked down so I can't even see where they're supposed to go... could someone in a less restrictive environment try to see if they work?...

I got a 100% on my google power searching mid-term... not exactly rocket surgery, but it is a really nice review and update. Like you used to put a + in front of terms to require them but that now gives you google plus web pages
