I'm mapping data to #BIBFRAME in JSON-LD, and I get the feeling I'm on a little-trodden path. Aiming for a LOUD result like #LinkedArt with a helpful context document. Any pointers/examples?
First night tomorrow. 8pm every night till Saturday. Come and join us on the lake.

Download Java libraries with all dependencies jar-download.com/#.ZCHNlK1PBoo. - worked for me to get a Jolt CLI executable.
Max Bruch struggled w doubt, rewriting his famous Violin Concerto #1 “at least half a dozen times” after soliciting advice from several violinists inc. virtuoso Joseph Joachim (the dedicatee) & Ferdinand David, who had advised Mendelssohn on his concerto.

The UK govt's approach to migration is cruel and inhumane.
The absence of safe routes and the criminalisation of people seeking safety force more people to risk their lives at sea – with devastating effects.
RT or QT this to tell @SuellaBraverman we need safe routes now!

YA author ’s new book was inspired by Vaughan Williams’ The Lark Ascending. She “imagine[s] a bird (the violin) and a forest (the orchestra)...It is hopeful and bright with…a beautiful sadness underneath.” Hear Lark at our next concert: bhso.org.uk/concert/autumn

This is an ace idea: bbc.co.uk/news/science-e, but calling it a "battery" is seriously misleading. (Unless they have also invented a way to get electricity out of hot sand ...)
Hi - just finished Stories of the Law ... - an interesting read after doing jury service for the first time this year. Is legislation.gov.uk still as out of date as you describe? It doesn't give that impression - there is stuff published today on there.

About western Ukraine in the autumn of 1914. 100 years later and it’s the same shit all over again, and still for no sane reason.

All four districts I follow have the same sharp peak in reported infections ... and all are on 1 January. Probably says more about Christmas than it does about New Year, but still interesting.
Even with a helper it was a straight guess between two words on the ninth attempt today. Phew!

What's the current thinking on how to record this event and cite this source? :-
A specific regiment, on a specific ship, with the date and place known. (From Project Gutenberg, of course. Other free transcribed source texts are available ...)
Please, , it's not "buried treasure", it's priceless (but valueless) material evidence. And doubtless it is destined for a "dusty museum store" ...

Yet again: that's the last three or so test results which I won't be registering. Why can't gov.uk sort out their web site? :-

This evidence suggests that ending isolation at 5 days will be at the time of peak infectiousness.

1/6 Important new study from Japan finds that with Omicron, infectious viral loads peak 3-6 days after symptom onset/diagnosis.
So many people are ending isolation & returning to work & school at peak infectiousness. Thanks, @CDCgov.
