Volume 4 (2010)

Dear Colleagues:
If you have checked the LD&C home page recently, you will have noticed that our
journal now employs a “publish-upon-acceptance” system. This means that we no
longer publish on a regular schedule, but instead upload articles and reviews as they
become ready for publication, after the review and editing processes.

We adopted this system in the hope that it will better enable us to serve both authors
and readers. Please be assured that we will continue to maintain both the quantity
and quality of materials that we have published during the past three years.

The current installment of articles and reviews for 2010 follows. If you are a
subscriber to our journal, we will inform you when new materials are available. If you
are not a subscriber, then we urge you to become one. It takes only seconds, and it
helps us maintain our funding.

We hope you will check our website on a regular basis and that you will continue to
support and profit from our journal.

Aloha,
LD&C Editorial Staff
