Have you ever received an email invitation to publish in a journal you have never heard of with promises of lightning-fast peer-review and publication times? Or have you ever found yourself listed on an editorial board that you have no recollection of joining? If so, you’ve probably heard of predatory publishing. During this workshop, participants will discuss this pervasive problem in academic publishing and how to spot the red flags through real-life examples.

The Burmese king Mindon (1853-1876) moved the capital of his kingdom to Mandalay in June 1857. A painting from that period shows dark red, three-pointed flags with a black cross in the middle. It is not known if these flags were Mindon's standards, army or national flags. The cross might be associated with Christianity since missionaries were already present in the area in the 1850's. The British troops entered in Mandalay on 28 November 1885 and Burma was attached to the British Empire on 1 January 1886. The new colony of Upper-Burma was later attached to Indian Empire on 26 February 1886. Source: H. Calvarin, Franciae Vexilla #20/66, December 2000. Ivan Sache, 19 December 2000

The Burmese flag shown on an old flag plate is the old peacock on a white field. I've seen this design in several sources, always with a different peacock, though they all seem to be naturalistically drawn (and coloured). FOTW shows a scan of an old cigar box with this flag. However, Pier Paolo's short history of Burmese flags does not include it, being the "White, a peacock on a red disk or inside a red ring." of until 1886 [being] the closest we can find. I think I've also seen this one, although the simply white one seems to be more frequently depicted. This doesn't mean, of course, that it was indeed in use. To make the above GIF I simply took clipart and placed it on a white field. It is probably no more correct or incorrect than any other such representation. Which probably means that the accuracy relative to flags really used last century is pretty low. The proportions of the flag (overall, symbol to field, etc.) and the position of the peacock (facing the hoist) were taken from the image in the flagplate.

A Houston oil multimillionaire who served as U.S. Commerce secretary under his close friend, President George H.W. Bush, Mosbacher died Sunday at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center after a yearlong battle with pancreatic cancer, according to Click2Houston.com.

Burma was incorporated to India and became a separate colony in 1937. The governor's flag was the Union Jack defaced in the middle with the Burmese seal (a green and blue peacock on a golden disk).

Individuals, businesses, municipalities, counties and other political subdivisions are encouraged to fly the flag at half-staff as a sign of respect.

Based on Franciae Vexilla #20/66, December 2000, the Commission of Rangoon Harbour used a 1:2 Red Ensign with the Port's seal (three black ships on a white disk, surrounded with a golden garland bearing 'Commissariat port of Rangoon' and crowned) at lower fly.

(Jan. 27, 2010)--Gov. Rick Perry has directed Texas flags to be flown at half-staff at state buildings on Wednesday, Jan. 27 in memory of former Commerce Secretary Robert Mosbacher Sr., who died Jan. 24.

The governor's flag order applies to all U.S. and Texas flags under the control of the state. Flags will be lowered to half-staff on the State Capitol Building, flag displays in the Capitol Complex and on all public buildings, grounds and facilities.
