personnel office of Rike's department store in Dayton, Ohio. One of
her tasks was writing for the Arkay News, the store's monthly employee
magazine. Fifteen of her columns from the Arkay News are now part of
the Erma Bombeck Online Museum.

cgi-bin/press.cgi?story=1427The Digital Catalogue of
Illuminated Manuscripts (DigCIM) is developing the first-ever
digitally illustrated and searchable catalog of Western illuminated
medieval and Renaissance manuscripts held in the British Library's
collections. It's funded by the Arts & Humanities Research Board
through a £300,000 grant to the Institute of English Studies at the
University of London, in partnership with the British Library. (A
pilot project was previously conducted by The British Library with
Getty support.) The books being cataloged include items such as the
8th century Lindisfarne Gospels and the 15th century Sforza Hours made
in Milan. Each manuscript will have an electronic description and will
be illustrated by a selection of captioned images. The site includes
thematic tours, some in the form of virtual exhibitions.

.cfmYale University research archivist Judith Schiff
says in an interview with AHA president-elect Jonathan Spence that
"one of the most rewarding experiences for an archivist is to have an
e-mail dialogue with a distant researcher, providing instruction so
the researcher can independently find all of the relevant sources
entered in an online database." In addition, Manuscripts and Archives
staff members Diane Kaplan and William Massa, with the assistance of
others, have developed an online tutorial for researchers that has
become a model in the field:

02/11/2004 05:51 AMYou'll recall, I hope, that in the last issue I almost despaired of
finding an answer to the problem of implementing identity projects
over the irrational fears of non-technical, even technophobic, people.
Most of the replies I'd gotten to the problem stressed the ability of
the technology to protect data ownership as well as data security and
privacy. We're all aware of that, but we still need to convince people
in the enterprise that there is benefit to giving up control of the
flow of data.

Finland exports more than just Nokia phones and this short film details
the production of the most rare of Finnish exports. The large version
[66mb] is worth the download if you have a highspeed connection. Yanks
with a hang-up about naked male bums should likely refrain from
watching this film. It's utterly delightful and narrated in English.

Sunbeams, Rare Goats Edition
06/18/2004 05:41 PMFirst up, a couple of posts on SunRays, from
Jeff Dillon and
John Clingan. They are indeed pretty neat, although when,
earlier this week, I was at SunLabs in Massachusets, it took the
little grey guy a couple of minutes to find my Sun desktop which lives
in Santa Clara and render it the first time; but then it was fine and
snappy. Danese Cooper has a
straight
forward explanation of why CEOs probably aren’t going to be
blogging any time soon. On another note entirely, Jim Waldo
writes
about the impedence mismatch between how engineers view the world
and how the world views engineers. And just to get out of geek mode,
Richard Elling has
notes on the word “war” and
nice pictures of rare goats that he rescued.
