The Value of Information Professionals
September 11, 2014
Posted in Business strategy, metadata, News
Information professionals are often the last people brought onto projects involving digital asset management teams and other project teams, where it would seem obvious to everyone that they are needed. They bring a perspective that connects everyone's interest and investment in the final outcome. They can remove themselves from the territory problems and turf wars by asking the important and simple questions, like "What are you trying to do?" CMS Wire brought this news to our attention in their article, "Library Science, Not Library Silence."
This article lifts up the "Top 5 DAM Benefits of an Information Professional."
- Taxonomy construction — Where does one start? What has worked for others? Which categorization methods lead to corners? Which are most scalable?
- Metadata perspective — What are some best practices in use of structured metadata, including menus, controlled vocabularies, etc. When are free-form text fields better?
- Policy authoring — What does DAM policy look like? What happens without it? How does one monitor and measure it?
- User education — Until DAMs get to the point where they are more advanced and intuitive, some training will be involved. Good training curriculum flows as an extension of user experience design: What the UI can't make obvious, the training covers. But who's going to do that training or write those how-to guides?
- Vendor advisories — Do vendors really know how controlled vocabularies should be used? Vendors listen to users, but users aren't always experts. Don't leave industry analysis to industry analysts. Write up some teaser reviews and send them to product managers. Show us vendors what we're missing.

Looking at All Angles
June 6, 2014
Posted in Business strategy, News
It is important to plan your business from every perspective – employees, customers, market, etc. Information architecture is the next step to organizing information based on that analysis. Information must come together in a meaningful fashion, or there will be redundancy and waste. Information is your asset; protect it. Search Data Management brought this advice to our attention in their article, 'Creating an information management strategy for high ROI, low TCO."
Semantic technology provides a unique perspective to your information. Once applied to information management, this new technology can help organizations reconcile and normalize meaning across different sources of data and content. Combined with advanced analytics, data mining is accelerated to a point that could change the way organizations compete.

Monetizing Knowledge
April 15, 2014
Posted in Business Intelligence, Business strategy, News, Standards, Technology
The fields of information science and economics have been expanding and overlapping for some time now. With the ever-increasing recognition of the value of knowledge organization systems (KOS), especially in the context of improved technologies and practices for them, it is time to look at them from the perspective of economics. This information came from a feature in ASIS&T's April/May 2014 Bulletin by our own Marjorie Hlava titled, "Introduction: Economics of Knowledge Organization Systems."
Indicative of this change are entirely new ways in which individuals and information systems generate, provide access to, and link information. In line with this change is a growing need to better integrate and leverage knowledge organization systems (KOSs). How does one measure the true value of successful information organization, navigation, and retrieval?

Knowledge Organization Systems and Return on Investment (KOSs and ROI)
March 31, 2014

Let's call him George. George was having a very bad day. He needed legal advice. So, over his lunch hour he scheduled an appointment. After George described his situation, the lawyer pulled a book from the shelf behind him. After briefly scanning it and checking precedent, he confidently told George with a smile, "Relax. This is a slam dunk." On his way out of the office, George gazed at the consultation invoice and muttered to himself: "15 minutes! Only 15 minutes and he charged me $325.00!"
On his way back to the office, George's car starting making some serious grinding noises whenever he turned to the right. He pulled into the local Fix-It-All Garage and described the noise to the technician. After turning over the keys, George looked through the large glass window as the mechanic pulled here and tugged there at his car up on the lift. After only a few keystrokes at his computer station, the technician began installing over the next ten minutes what looked to George like a $10.00 part. In the blink of an eye, George was standing at the counter with another invoice. He called his wife to grumble: "He pulled and tugged in two different spots and then charged me $325.00. I'm in the wrong line of work!"
Certain that his ulcer was acting up, George stopped at the clinic on his way home that day. The doctor, who agreed to fit him in right away, asked a few short questions, consulted his desk reference guide, and started writing a prescription. Moments later, speechless George could only grimace as he faced yet another hefty bill. Poor George.
Besides a considerable amount of cash, what was George missing? Someone might say that George knew the cost of everything, but the value of nothing. Because George was able to successfully confront and overcome several perplexing and complex problems, someone else might say, "What a great quality of life George has!" It all looked so deceptively easy. However, to focus only on the "interface" is to fail to consider the years of training and experience behind each professional who knew just what questions to ask, just where to look and pull and tug, and just which resource to consult.
How does one measure the true value of successful information organization, navigation, and retrieval? Access Innovations Inc. offers superior customer service, ease of product use, and support, combined with years of experience in order to provide outstanding quality. Speak with the CEO of Access Innovations, Inc., Jay Van Eman, about the qualitative and quantitative criteria used to assess successful KOSs and the proper rationale for measuring ROI in your setting. Are you getting real value for the cost?

Internal Strategy
March 27, 2014
Posted in Business strategy, News, search
Organizational intranets are a major part of internal communications around the world. The responsibility for posting is housed in various locations, e.g., communications, information technology, human resources, and even the executive offices. There seems to be no standardization in technology or content management. What many do not realize is that internal communication is far more than controlling the rumor mill or sharing the latest human resources policy. It is about strategy.
Some organizations, such as The University of Pretoria, have undertaken an information strategy approach to managing content within the organization. This interesting topic was covered in Web Project Management's article, "Corporate intranets – an information strategy approach: a case study at the University of Pretoria."
The main objectives of the information strategy are to make information more accessible to all staff and students, provide security for sensitive information, and reduce the cost (both in dollars and staff hours) of managing the information, as well as to improve the quality.

Bike to Work and Get Rewarded in Palo Alto, Thursday May 15
(from Frank's Weekly Memo)
On Thursday May 15, communities throughout the Bay Area will celebrate the 14th Annual Bike to Work Day to promote bicycling as a healthy, green and fun form of transportation. More than 180 Energizer Stations in Santa Clara and San Mateo counties along bike commute routes will provide rewards and encouragement for regular and first time bike commuters.
The City of Palo Alto will sponsor four Energizer Stations:
* City Hall King Plaza, near the intersection of Hamilton and Bryant Street
* Alma Bike Bridge, near the intersection of Alma and El Camino Real
* California Avenue and Park Boulevard, near the Caltrain Station
* Wilkie Way Bike Bridge over Adobe Creek, on the Miller Avenue side
Joining the commuters will be City Manager Frank Benest who will bike to City Hall.
City staff, members of the Palo Alto Bicycle Advisory Committee and friendly volunteers will welcome bicyclists at the Energizer Stations with fruit, coffee and other treats, plus bike commute bags, from 6:30 9 a.m.
Other local Energizer Station locations include one near Arastradero and Foothill (sponsored by Roche), another on Hanover near Page Mill (sponsored by HP) and one near the intersection of Churchill and Castilleja Avenues (sponsored by the Palo Alto High School). Stanford University will be hosting five more Energizer Stations at White Plaza and four key entrances to campus: Palm Drive, Galvez, Serra and Campus Drive West.
For maps showing locations of these Energizer Stations and 180 others over the Bay Area, plus FAQs on bike commuting and how to enter a prize drawing, see www.bicycling.511.org

St. Louis, MO (SportsNetwork.com) - Ryan Kesler scored his second goal with 14.7 seconds left in overtime as the Vancouver Canucks wrapped up their successful road trip with a 3-2 win over a St. Louis team that was well rested.
Vancouver's Daniel Sedin drew a hooking penalty on Patrik Berglund with 34 seconds remaining in the extra session. Sedin then sent a fluttering puck from the slot towards Jaroslav Halak, but Kesler, who was planted on the doorstep, knocked down the shot and beat the Blues goaltender on the backhand from the crease.
"Danny (Sedin) took a shot and it kind of went up in the air and I kind of knocked it down and knocked it in," Kesler said. "We needed that. Our power play won us the game tonight."
Chris Higgins scored the other goal for Vancouver, which finished 5-1-1 on its season-high trek. Eddie Lack made 22 saves in his third NHL start.
Halak stopped 18 shots for the Blues, who had been idle since a 4-3 shootout loss at Winnipeg last Friday. St. Louis fell to 1-1-2 over its last four games after starting the season with four straight wins.
"It's unacceptable," St. Louis captain David Backes said. "They're a team that played last night, which we knew they were going to be ready to go. They don't even get time to think about it and they're right into the game and we had a week off. We can't start slow, we can't dig holes like that and expect to be able to dig out."
The Canucks blew a 2-0 lead, with the Blues tying the game on goals by Alexander Steen and Vladimir Sobotka.
Steen scored on a 5-on-3 power play with seven seconds left in the second period, then Sobotka lit the lamp at the 1:38 mark of the third period.
Higgins was the recipient of a fortuitous carom on the game's opening tally. St. Louis defenseman Roman Polak went down to block Higgins' shot, but the puck deflected off Polak and past Halak's glove with 2:49 left in the first period.
Kesler doubled the advantage off a steal in the second. Mike Santorelli stripped the puck from defenseman Kevin Shattenkirk behind the St. Louis net and fed Kesler, who scored from the high slot.

What type of sensor should I use in this scenario?
Viewing 4 posts - 1 through 4 (of 4 total)
Basically, I need the patch to know how many people are in the room. The sensor would need to be able to accurately detect whether it is 0, 1, 2, 3, or more than 3 people in the room at a given time. I did attempt using a camera with face detection, but it was a bit sketchy.
Any ideas for other ways of determining the number of people in the room?
Microsoft Kinect has good user detection capabilities. In my setup, it takes a couple of seconds to detect when users enter and a couple more when they exit. But it's quite reliable.
And you can control it inside Max via the great externals jit.openni (Mac) or dp.kinect (Win).
alternatively you can do blob tracking (not face detection) with a normal webcam.
Depends, how big is the room, distance between the floor and the roof is important too… But in typical conditions kinect and simple blob tracking should be the simplest solution. Good luck ;-)

I am also very put off by bad language. Please get your point across just as Ron Paul would. True or false, it has always been the perception that if one has to curse, the person doing so has no vocabulary. If you have to emulate someone, rather Ron Paul, than George Carlin.

Fire TV iFixit teardown reveals massive heatsink
The Amazon Fire TV was announced earlier this week and the folks at iFixit have returned with another teardown. They gave the set-top box a score of 6 out of 10 in terms of repairability, however we suspect there will not be many attempting to fix this $99 media and game player by themselves. Instead these teardowns offer a look that most will likely never see otherwise. They sometimes also reveal some interesting little details.

Gwala: South Africans are spearheading a new mining thrust in bauxite-rich West Africa.
Creamer: South Africans have got a lot of mining know-how and do see gaps. Of course they should see them with greater alacrity than the Australians and Canadians, who normally get there ahead of us. We see now Adonis Pouroulis, whom we know from these parts, as the founder of Petra Diamonds, which has done pretty well and listed on the London Stock Exchange Alternative Investment Market and now on the main board. He is moving into Guinea in West Africa to pursue bauxite reserves. Guinea hosts about a quarter of the world's bauxite reserves.
He is hoping with move with Alufer and to raise capital again on the Aim-market in London and use it this time for exploration. With his past, Petra, activity he was an acquirer of discard assets from De Beers, so he got half a dozen of those diamond mines that De Beers didn't want anymore and he is doing very well with those, including Cullinan, up in Pretoria. This time around, he is going to go the full hog and explore and make sure that they then become a miner from the exploration activity.
He sees the gap, because he sees that there are not enough bauxite mines coming through and that the demand is lifting because we know we produce aluminium on our east coast and bauxite is the ore for aluminium. We can see that those are all standing still there, they are not expanding, because what has happened is that China has cracked the code to the aluminium technology.
They are looking now for more raw bauxite rather then alumina because you can see that China's alumina capacity has now gone from 11% in 2004 to 37% of the global capacity. So they are hungry now for bauxite and this has been picked up by our South Africans, with Adonis Pouroulis leading this new charge in West Africa to mine bauxite.
Gwala: Gold is supplying a missing piece in South Africa's quest to regrow its industrialisation base.
Creamer: We've had a situation where at COP17 the Anglo American CEO Cynthia Carroll said that the window of opportunity is wide open for South Africans to develop fuel cells here.
Then we saw that followed up by the Department of Trade and Industry Director-General Lionel October saying that perhaps we should have a platinum type valley, a hub for platinum development, so we could include these fuel cells.
That was followed up by thought leader Brian Gilbertson saying he thinks that this is feasible and we should start working on it and he has got the Kell technology which could, its low energy and also has different way of doing things. The producer of the Kell technology Keith Liddell said yes it is more fuel-cell ready.
The way we produce the platinum is more fuel-cell ready, but there was a missing piece in the puzzle, because if you go into this hydrogen age, you do need clean hydrogen that is used by fuel cells. Unfortunately, this hydrogen contains carbon monoxide, which actually poisons the system and it can then underperform in terms of the fuel cell.
Platinum's noble cousin, gold, can come to the rescue, because now with gold catalysis you can see that Mintek has reminded us from Randburg that you can actually remove that carbon monoxide. You convert it in to carbon dioxide, which is inert, because of this new gold catalyst.
We think of platinum as a catalyst, we don't think of gold for catalysis. We now find that Mintek has been working very hard all these years to produce this and South Africa has actually developed a massive industrial use of gold. We started it in 2001 and this year will see another big conference.
This time in Japan and we know the old name for Japan was Zipang, which means island of gold. What is happening now is that Japan is becoming the island of nanogold, and fortunately the South Africans are right in there because we created these global conferences on industrialised use of gold. Hopefully we can help our industrialisation process by using some of these precious metals in an industrial sense.
Gwala: Eskom intends taking the power of the sun to a new level in South Africa's scorching hot Northern Cape.
Creamer: We know that Eskom has now called for requests for information that is like a bidding process that they are engaging in right away now.
They want these bids in, they want these requests for information in by May 8, 2012. They are looking to build a 100 MW power tower in the Northern Cape in Upington, making use of the scorching hot Northern Cape sun.
We know that there is enough energy in one hour of sunlight to power the planet for a year. We are now looking to make use of this and of course, Eskom is coal heavy so it is looking to diversify some of its interests and show that it is also in renewables.
It is getting some funding backing for this proposal for a power tower using the concentrating solar power method from the International Bank of Reconstruction. It is using the two-stage process in this bidding that you come in unpriced first with technical information and then you follow with your priced version. Interestingly this will make use of mirrors.
This power tower uses mirrors or heliostats, which reflect the sunlight on to a concentrated point. Then the light is converted to heat. Manipulating the sunlight into one spot with mirrors and then that heat is converted into electricity. This has been done a lot in the world, particularly Spain at the moment and also the US.
Gwala: Thanks very much. Martin Creamer is publishing editor of Engineering News and Mining Weekly, he'll be back with us at the same time next week.

Marriage Wars
It is billed as one of the great battles of legal history. In truth, the battle over Proposition 8's legality in the highest court in the United States might well be a fizzer, a side-step rather than a full trot. When California's electors voted for Proposition 8 in 2008, it went against the legal reasoning of the California Supreme Court which had proclaimed that the state's constitution guaranteed the right to gay marriage. 18,000 same sex couples who had taken advantage of the legal reasoning of the court find themselves in legal limbo. The lawyers find themselves very busy indeed.
Proposition 8 itself came up against a now retired Judge Vaughn R. Walker, who was subsequently attacked by its sponsors. His own sexual orientation was apparently a disentitling point for opponents, despite being a Republican appointee and firm libertarian. In any case, his decision opened the legal route over a battle that has captivated activists on both sides of the marriage fence.
Certainly, the celebrity set were there to pronounce upon the legal deliberations of the Supreme Court, which are in full swing this week. Actor-director Rob Reiner spoke of his anticipation at the ruling in June "and believe[s] that the Supreme Court will come down on the side of fairness, dignity and equality" (LA Times, Mar 26). That all said, grand words do not necessarily produce grand results.
A more sober appraisal was offered by Politico's Josh Gerstein (Mar 26). "For all the toasting in Washington and excitement among gay rights groups about the historic oral arguments this week, there's still a chance their set of cases could culminate in loss." This might well happen not merely on Prop 8 itself but the federal Defence of Marriage Act, which enshrines heterosexual union as the cornerstone of marriage.
The Supreme Court justices may well choose to veer away from a clear decision on whether the Constitution reveals any core right for gay marriage, whatever the vox populi might say about the matter. This is understandable – US courts exercise enormous power, sometimes to the detriment of public views as expressed via ballot. As the former California Chief Justice Ronald M. George explained, "the people have a right to amend their Constitution."
In the meantime, there are only whisperings, clues and the occasional broadside about where the case will go. Justice Anthony Kennedy, for one, sounded off about the "immediate legal injury" inflicted by Prop. 8 on the children of same-sex unions. Having himself drafted the 2003 decision that prevented states from criminalising gay sex acts, he was all ears to the problems of prejudice. "They want their parents to have full recognition and full status. The voice of those children is important in this case, don't you think?"
Notwithstanding the stance, the Justice reserved a few harsh words for his legal colleagues lower down the judicial chain. "I just wonder if the case was properly granted." Bets are being hedged, even if punters are willing to splash out. "There's zero possibility [of a loss]," suggested University of Chicago law professor Geoffrey Stone. The tea leaves can be found not merely in the majority verdict against the sodomy laws in 2003, but Romer v Evans (1996), a decision which still reverberates in terms of what states can or can't do in imposing disabilities on sections of the populace. The amendment to the Colorado state constitution preventing any city, town or country in state recognising gay and lesbian individual individuals a protected class was struck down. "Homosexuals," reasoned Justice Kennedy in Romer, "are forbidden the safeguards that others enjoy or may seek without constraint."
The road to legal wisdom can still be a dull one. The current case is interesting for the procedural wonks keen on seeing how laws of standing are decided. "Have we ever granted standing to proponents of ballot initiatives?" queried Justice Ginsberg. The answer that came from Charles J. Cooper on behalf of the petitioners was a clear no. Instead, Cooper argued that, precisely because the state of California itself would have standing, its officials might empower a "very clear and identifiable group of citizens" with that legal basis.
Former Republican US Solicitor General Theodore Olson argued that Proposition 8 "was stigmatising a class of Californians based upon their status and labelling their most cherished relationships as second-rate, different, unequal and not OK." The ever rock-solid conservative Justice Antonin Scalia had little truck with that. "When did it become unconstitutional to exclude homosexual couples from marriage? 1791? 1868, when the 14th Amendment was adopted?" The writing of his decision is already on the wall.
The vistas open by a strong majority decision of the court will be considerable. But the intricacies of American constitutional law may allow the court to exit without a clear stance on whether US law allows for gay marriage. The default position in many decisions in history has been to leave the matter to the states to decide. California's ban, in that case, might be reinstated. A narrow right to gay marriage might also be "found" specific to some states with constitutions such as California's, or the bench might go the whole hog and find a right across the country. All of this, even as the popularity for gay marriage has reached unprecedented levels in the U.S.
Not to be deterred, the optimists will find, even in any loss, hope. "Even if you lose the case, and I think that's very unlikely, you would say that the case has been a success because it's changed public opinion so dramatically," intones former advisor to Bill Clinton, Richard Socarides. That may well be – in time. The law will simply have to limp and lag.

Goalkeeper makes non-league loan move
Derby County goalkeeper Mats Morch has joined non-league Gresley FC on loan until 4th January 2014.
The Norwegian shot-stopper, who is a graduate of the Rams' Academy, is expected to go straight into their squad for Saturday's FA Carlsberg Trophy First Round Proper game away to Wrexham.
Gresley are currently 14th in the Evo-Stik NPL Division One South and helped provide vital match experience for first-year professional Ross Etheridge earlier in the season, after the goalkeeper joined them on a three-month loan back in September.
Morch is yet to make his Rams debut after signing professional forms last season, but he has gained match experience in Derby's Under 21 side during the last year and spent some time on loan at Burton Albion earlier in the campaign.

Dubliners (Dover Thrift Editions)by James Joyce
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Although James Joyce began these stories of Dublin life in 1904, when he was 22, and had completed them by the end of 1907, they remained unpublished until 1914—victims of Edwardian squeamishness. Their vivid, tightly focused observations of the life of Dublin's poorer classes, their unconventional themes, coarse language, and mention of actual people and places made publishers of the day reluctant to undertake sponsorship.
Today, however, the stories are admired for their intense and masterly dissection of "dear dirty Dublin," and for the economy and grace with which Joyce invested this youthful fiction. From "The Sisters," the first story, illuminating a young boy's initial encounter with death, through the final piece, "The Dead," considered a masterpiece of the form, these tales represent, as Joyce himself explained, a chapter in the moral history of Ireland that would give the Irish "one good look at themselves." But in the end the stories are not just about the Irish; they represent moments of revelation common to all people.
Now readers can enjoy all 15 stories in this inexpensive collection, which also functions as an excellent, accessible introduction to the work of one of the 20th century's most influential writers. Dubliners is reprinted here, complete and unabridged, from a standard edition.
Book News Annotation:
**** In BCL3. This very legible and complete reprint of the Grant Richards edition of 1914 is priced at so low a price that stores will resent selling it. Salute to Dover.
Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
A fine and accessible introduction to the work of one of the 20th century's most influential writers, this collection features 15 tales, including a masterpiece of the short-story genre, "The Dead."
In these masterful stories, steeped in realism, Joyce creates an exacting portrait of his native city, showing how it reflects the general decline of Irish culture and civilization. Joyce compels attention by the power of its unique vision of the world, its controlling sense of the truths of human experience.
Declared by their author to be a chapter in the moral history of Ireland, this collection of 15 tales offers vivid, tightly focused observations of the lives of Dublin's poorer classes. A fine and accessible introduction to the work of one of the 20th century's most influential writers, it includes a masterpiece of the short-story genre, "The Dead."
About the Author
Sooner or later, most undergraduates encounter him, and some scholars devote their careers to his exuberantly eloquent prose. James Joyce (1882-1941) led the vanguard of 20th-century fiction, and his experimental use of language and stream-of-consciousness technique continue to captivate, intrigue, and influence modern readers and writers.

Florida hot dog stand closes in Titusville mall after 42 years
The lone remaining business in a decaying Titusville mall is finally folding.
Dave's Hot Dog stand in Titusville has been a symbol of perseverance in an area hit hard by the recession and the end of the space shuttle.
For 42 years, Dave Curfman has been serving lunch at the Miracle City Mall.
"The Juliuses are the best and the best hot dogs ever," said Erica Shadrick.
The mall, vast, cavernous and echoing only with the sounds of better times and the plink of rainwater leaking from the roof, has become a symbol of Titusville's downturn.
The city has been the victim of both a recession and 8,000 space shuttle layoffs.
Curfman has persevered through it all -- until this week.
"We're going to miss Dave and the hot dog stand," said Mike Diaz.
Curfman doesn't talk to reporters, so what is learned is learned from customers and the Titusville tradition Curfman is part of, working his stand with his wife Pam and daughter Heather.
The mall is closing, and the last retailer, JC Penney, is selling out.
No matter how much Curfman might like to keep selling dogs to his faithful regulars, he has to close.
Instead of relocating he is retiring.
The sad ones will be those who'll miss their hot dogs and who'll miss Curfman's refusal to give up.
