There is hardly any aspect of scholarly work and teaching in Roman Studies today not marked by digital technology. We assume that readers regularly access digital images of Roman material culture, use digitised corpora of primary sources in the original language or translation or consult online books and articles. The availability of digital resources on the internet is also a welcome enabler of ongoing public interest and even participation in the field. This overall state of affairs is generally a positive development, but both general trends and specific digital resources deserve a critical appraisal.

Summary
Abstract:
This paper details a current project at the American Numismatic Society: Online Coins of the Roman Empire (OCRE), an open-access catalogue of Roman Imperial coin types. The paper discusses linked data approaches applied to numismatic collections, the application architecture of the project, and the practical functionality of the project's web interface, illustrating its value to researchers.
Keywords:
Linked data, Information Architecture, Numismatics
Introduction
This paper describes a series of related initiatives to publish Roman coins—the basic material of the discipline of Roman numismatics that works to place coins in their historical and economic context—on the Internet using practices and methods that draw on the “Linked Data” approach to access and re-use of internet-based resources. The components of the work described here are: Nomisma.org, a digital resource that establishes stable URIs for numismatic concepts, with a current focus on both Greek and Roman coins; Numishare, a software platform for the management of numismatic data that supports linked data approaches; Online Coins of the Roman Empire (OCRE), a project recording and publishing all the known types of coins issued by the Roman Empire, accessible at http: //numismatics.org/ocre/. While all of these projects are publicly available, they continue to be under active development. In combination they demonstrate the power of stable links between high-quality structured data.
In its capitalised form - that is as a defined set of practices - “Linked Data” is “a term used to describe a recommended best practice for exposing, sharing, and connecting pieces of data, information, and knowledge on the Semantic Web using URIs and RDF.” In this paper we focus on three aspects of Linked Data and describe how we implement them within the field of Roman coinage. Those three aspects are: stable URIs for each component of the study of coins, meaning URIs for descriptions of coin types, and for the vocabulary terms we use to describe those coins; availability of machine parsable data via those URIs; and rich re-use and interlinking between separate datasets that allows both cross-project efficient and discovery.
Coinage, as one of the ancient world's few examples of a mass-produced medium, is an excellent disciplinary laboratory—so to speak—in which to implement the concepts of Linked Data.

It commonly is rumored that in large scale disasters, packs of dogs present a human health hazard because of dog bites. However, it is likely that factors other than pack behavior comprise greater risk factors for dog bites in disaster-response personnel. Important risk factors include: 1) the density of the human population, which in turn, determines the number of dogs at a disaster site; 2) territorial behavior of dogs at their site of residence, which determines the frequency with which dogs may bite; and 3) whether rabies is present at endemic or epidemic levels within the area in which the disaster is occurring, which determines the likelihood of fatal outcomes. Persons bitten by a dog should seek medical attention as contraction of rabies may result in a fatal outcome from a dog bite. It is recommended that disaster response personnel obtain pre-exposure vaccination against rabies. Vaccinated or not, they immediately should seek post-exposure treatment for rabies following potential exposure.

Introduction:
Although 50% to 60% of North American households own pets and many of these pets are considered family members, there is little information on the impact pet ownership on pet-owning families affected by disasters.
Methods:This case report describes some of the effects of a tornado on 17 families whose dwellings were destroyed. The setting was a typical urban trailer park.
Results:After a tornado at the Sagamore Village Trailer Park in north central Indiana, 104 families were evacuated. Seventeen (16.3%) of these families owned pets. For 14 families (13.5%), pet ownership had an important impact on the families' recovery from the tornado. Public- and mental-health concerns that arose from pet ownership included failure to evacuate a dangerous site, attempts to re-enter a dangerous site, separation anxiety leading to psychosomatic disturbances, and the need for additional animal care.
Conclusions:In urban disasters, the behaviors of families with a human-animal bond are likely to pose a significant risk to their own and others' health and safety in urban disasters. In this small study of families affected by a tornado, the most prominent public-health concerns were failure to evacuate because of a pet and attempts of re-entry to save a pet; the most common mental-health concerns resulted from separation anxiety from a pet and refusal to accept medical treatment until a pet's well-being can be assured. These are thought to be typical issues that will arise out of the human-animal bond in urban disaster situations and differ considerably from traditional public-health concerns over dog bites, spread of zoonotic diseases, and human food contamination. Medical disaster preparedness planning should consider the substantial effects that the human-animal bond is likely to have on human recovery from large-scale urban disasters.
