How to use bibliograph.parsing?
I'm hoping to do some citation analysis.
I want to count from a set of Web of Science records:
How many come from a particular institution? How many from that set are from a particular publisher?
I know this is possible if I learn BibTex.
But that's sounds like a lot of work for really just counting items in a set.
I found a Python module called bibliograph.parsing that sounds promising.
It takes citations of various formats and returns them in a Python dictionary.
And I know that there are a lot of Python commands for counting items within dictionaries.

House of 1000 Blank White Twitter Cards

"1000 Blank White Cards is a party game played with cards in which the deck is created as part of the game... Since any game rules are contained on the cards (rather than existing as all-encompassing rules or in a rule book), 1000 Blank White Cards can be considered a sort of nomic. It can be played by any number of players and provides the opportunity for card creation and gameplay outside the scope of a single sitting. Creating new cards during the game, dealing with previous cards' effects, is allowed, and rule modification is encouraged as an integral part of gameplay.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1000_Blank_White_Cards

To play this game, you reply to this account: https://twitter.com/1000WhiteCards

I will keep track of the rules... here:

Rule 1. TEXT MUST BE IN ALL CAPS
Rule 2. EVERY TENTH CARD MUST CONTAIN A TAUTOLOGY
Rule 3. 5PTS IF YOU REWORK AN OBLIQUE STRATEGY. IT IS SIMPLY A MATTER OF REWORK

Can you help me figure out how to partiton my drive so I can dual boot my Windows 7 machine with Ubuntu?
I have a brand new laptop with Windows 7 pre-installed. I would like to make my laptop dual boot with Ubuntu. But I've run into a road block. Can you help me get past it? Here's what I've done so far:
1.0: I created a bootable USB stick as per these instructions: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows
2.0: I started the installation process as per : http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/install-ubuntu-desktop
2.4: The start up screen in the instructions give an option to "Install Ubuntu alongside Windows 7" but this option doesn't appear for me. Instead, there is only an advanced option to partiton the drive.
I have no idea how to do this.
Following the advice on this page,
