Abstract:

"Zine," shortened from "fanzine," is the current term for publications published outside the conventional channels. These publications address issues of less-than-mainstream interest and provide a creative outlet for people whose tastes differ from those of the general population. Zines have been around in one form or another since the beginning of the printing press, though the amount of interest they generate tends to go in waves. The latest wave of zines starts with the punk rock movement and was accelerated by the publication of Factsheet Five, the zine of zines. Factsh

Abstract:

Mapping and sequencing the human genome will generate large amounts of data, which must be sorted, analyzed, and stored for rapid retrieval to complete this enormous task. Computers and their software programs provide the most important tool to the molecular biologist today. A discussion of current capabilities and future needs in computer hardware and software for the human genome project is the topic of this paper. The use of computer programs to generate restriction maps, manage clone libraries, manage sequence projects, and generate consensus sequences is presented. The use of computers to

Abstract:

It is difficult for me to accept the reality that Doug Kahn is about to retire after a triumphant fifty-two year tenure as a professor at the University of Michigan Law School. For much of the nearly forty-seven years of my association with the Law School, first as a student and then as an alumnus, Doug has practically symbolized the Law School for me, as he went from being a revered teacher, to a valued mentor, to a dear friend, to a colleague and co-author, and, dare I say, to virtually a member of the family. But I am only one of many Michigan students whose lives and careers were touched a
