IEEE now has RSS feeds for new journal issues

From SLA's Physics, Astronomy, Mathematics division email list:

As part of yesterday's maintenance release of the IEEE Xplore digital library, RSS feeds for new issues of IEEE journals are now available for all titles.

Feeds are available individually from each journal's main page in IEEE Xplore.

To see one example, visit the Proceedings of the IEEE main page at
http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/RecentIssue.jsp?punumber=5

RSS feeds can also be found through the Table of Contents Alerts service, which continues to offer notification by email.

Calgary Stampede Memorabilia Available Online

Okay, so this not even remotely related to Mathematics and Statistics (unless you're talking about the odds of winning the Stampede Dream Home Lottery), but this is a gem, so I wanted to share it. A brief article is available in the November 2005 issue of On Campus.

Stampede memorabilia and images like postcards, posters, souvenir programs, Stampede prize lists and rules, annual reports and bull/cattle sale catalogues are now available online through the Alberta Heritage Digitization Project,
www.ourfutureourpast.ca
and at the Calgary Stampede site,
www.calgarystampede.com,
under Celebrating Our Past Creating Our Future.
