Tow Truck Drivers Push Cars into
Tow-Away Zone then hold cars for ransom
03/22/2005 04:59 PMMark Frauenfelder:
Tian says: "On March 7th, I took
photos of a tow truck driver that damages a vehicle then tries
to get away in Phoenix.
Sunday night (March 20th), Phoenix news channel 15 used a bait car
and discovered that local tow truck company(s) would actually push
cars into tow-away zone first, then held the cars as "hostages" for
ransom."
I just watched it. The TV crew set up a white SUV as a bait car,
and parked it legally. Time and time again, tow trucks would push the
car into a red zone, snap a photo, and tow it away. Of course, when
the TV crew showed the owner of the tow truck company how his drivers
had pushed the car into the red lane, the owner denied responsibility.
"I didn't push it," he said.
Arizona lawmakers have been half-heartedly writing legislation to
stop this (isn't it illegal to do this already) but the tow truck has
so far been able to convince them not to ruin the good thing they've
got going.

Greenfleet is an
Australian environmental organisation who aim to help citizens offset
their own greenhouse gas emmissions. Their
Tree
Totaller (Australian-based, but I'm sure conversions are
easy) works out how many trees you need to offset your annual
emmissions, based on private car, home energy use and flights. It's a
very neat little flash-app, and at the end it lets you chose to
"subscribe" to Greenfleet so they'll plant the necessary
number of trees for you. I owe 44 trees, for only AU$103 a year.

A new study (in a biggish PDF) from
PRI states that most
environmental indicators in the United States have improved
dramatically since the 1970's regardless of the political party that
controls the White House. Notably: "CO (Carbon monoxide)
levels were the lowest recorded during the past 20 years"
(EPA, 2002, pg 48), ambient lead levels have fallen 98% between 1976
and 2002 (pg 46), and sulfur dioxide has fallen 70% since 1976 (pg
44). (Mostly) Happy Earth Week, right?

OCLC Environmental Scan Now Available
OCLC Environmental Scan Now Available
01/09/2004 10:11 PMThe 2003 OCLC Environmental Scan:
Pattern Recognition
"From the document, 'The 2003 OCLC Environmental Scan: Pattern
Recognition report was produced for OCLC’s worldwide membership
to examine the significant issues and trends impacting OCLC,
libraries, museums, archives and other allied organizations, both now
and in the future. The scan provides a high-level view of the
information landscape, intended both to inform and stimulate
discussion about future strategic directions.'
Intro
and Flash Graphic of Several Stats Contained in the Report ||| D
irect to Full Text" [Resourceshelf]
I saw a piece of this report last month and even had the chance to
provide some feedback and comments that made it into the final
version. I have not yet had time to read the whole thing, but what I
did see was pretty solid and does provide a good overview of current
and future issues for libraries. Naturally, I agree with a lot of
what's in the report, although I did have an interesting dialogue with
the author, which is where some of my quotes come from (mostly in the
Future Fr
amework section).
Some of the quotes that are not from me but could be because of
their "shifted-ness" include:
- "Wi-Fi, short for wireless fidelity, is a
technology that has captured the heart of the information consumer and
is filling tables at coffee shops across the world.... Jupiter
Research reports that 6 percent of U.S. consumers have used Wi-Fi
services in a public place. Why not make the library the first public
place for the next 50 percent?
- The high school students interviewed for the scan told us that the
technology tool they wanted most was a PDA device that 'contained all
the information they needed to do their work.' Vendors are
responding. Several vendors now offer PDAs under $100, making it
possible for the information consumer to get a PDA for about the price
of two video games. Personalization, alert technology
and other PDA-friendly information services have brought a world of
convenience to the business user. The information consumer is ready
for libraries to bring 'all the information they need to do their
work' to their PDAs." [Security, authentication, and Digital Rights
Management (DRM), p.
5]
- "What if libraries and OCLC and all the other players in the world
of structured access to information erased the organizational charts,
the artificial separations of content, the visible taxonomies, and the
other edifices real or otherwise built to bring order and rationality
to what we perceive as a chaotic universe? What if we built an
infosphere rich in content and context that was easy to use,
ubiquitous and integrated, designed to become woven into the fabric of
people’s lives; people looking for answers, meaning and
authoritative, trustable results? How do we take information,
information sources and our expertise to the user, rather than making
the user come to our spheres?" [Future Frameworks, p.
5]
It will be interesting to gauge the reaction to this document
and to see if OCLC
can successfully use it as a springboard to implementing the
frameworks discussed (or helping their members to implement those
frameworks). I hope they do a follow-up in a year to evaluate its
impact on the organization and/or libraries. Personally, an API into
WorldCat that could be used
as an
ISBN lookup service would be pretty high on my list in terms of
integration into the web in the user's infosphere (hint, hint).
OCLC is soliciting feedback about the report, so feel free to contribute your thoughts to
them.

"Bring
'Em On:" A Certain Four Horsemen Rein Up to Inquire of The Taunt
-- or "The Health and Environmental Costs of War on Iraq
(PDF)." An independent survey just released by the UK global
health charity Medact, finds
that "the war on Iraq and its aftermath exacted a heavy toll on
combatants and civilians, who paid and continue to pay the price in
death, injury and mental and physical ill health. Between 21,700 and
55,000 people died between March 20 and October 20, 2003." Accord
ing to the BBC, the report says that the "conflict and its
aftermath have put the most vulnerable in society - women, children
and the elderly - at risk", and "there has been a reported
increase in maternal mortality rates, acute malnutrition has almost
doubled from 4% to 8% in the last year and there is an increase in
water-borne diseases and vaccine-preventable diseases."
