KNOXVILLE (WATE) -- As President
Reagan's body arrives in Washington D.C.
for his state funeral, a Knoxville man who
helped establish the Reagan National
Library recalls the man and the project.
Alan Lowe is currently executive director
of UT's Howard Baker Center for Public
Policy. But from 1989 to 1992, he served
as an archivist for the Reagan Library.

Archive Architecture: Setting the Spin in Stone
By FRED A. BERNSTEIN
LITTLE ROCK, Ark.
EVERY day, a worker climbs to the roof of the Clinton Presidential Center here and hoists three sevenfoot-
high numbers onto a steel frame. The numbers tell drivers on Interstate 30, just west of the site, how
many days remain until Nov. 18, when Bill Clinton is expected to open the $175 million project that
embodies his postpresidential ambitions.
Millions of people pass by that sign every year, Skip Rutherford said. And as president of the nonprofit
William J. Clinton Foundation, which is overseeing the construction, Mr. Rutherford figures that at least
300,000 of them will want to visit the 11th, and by far most expensive, of the nation's presidential
libraries each year. The runner-up, the library built for the first President Bush in College Station, Tex.,
cost about half as much to construct.

By Casey Ross
Thursday, June 10, 2004
Searching in the dusty eaves of an old town hall, Kingston librarians
discovered an 1808 letter that appears to carry the words and signature
of Thomas Jefferson.
Dorothy Garfield, a 74-year-old part-time archivist, was leafing
through a stack of crinkled papers when she came upon a letter with a
very familiar signature.

invoice issued for a formal records request.

CRYSTAL RIVER - A less-than-$20 invoice, and the simmering personality
conflicts among several city leaders, made for a tense atmosphere at Tuesday
night's City Council meeting.
One question got the latest debate started: Should City Council members be
charged for formal public records requests?

'Or' could stop release of state felon
voter lists
By Jim Ash, Palm Beach Post Capital Bureau
Thursday, June 10, 2004
TALLAHASSEE -- A single word in the Florida
Constitution could be enough to block Cable News
Network and journalists across the state from
investigating a controversial list of 47,000 suspected
felons on the state voter rolls.
Attorneys for CNN and a handful of Florida media
outlets appeared before Leon County Circuit Judge
Nikki Clark on Wednesday and asked her to strike
down a 2001 law that election officials cite as a
reason for restricting access to the list.

CIO
Privacy Is Your Business
What's the payoff for CIOs becoming privacy champions? Better business, more secure IT
and a higher corporate profile.
BY SUSANNAH PATTON
IN SEPTEMBER 2002, the Department
of Defense asked JetBlue Airways to hand
over more than 5 million passenger
records. The airline, known for its
discount fares and leather seats, promptly
complied with the request, releasing
names, telephone numbers and travel
itineraries to a DoD contractor.
JetBlue's CIO at that time, Jeff Cohen,
didn't hear about the request; the DoD
went directly to the company's marketing
department, bypassing IT altogether.
Cohen discovered months later that the
airline had released passenger
information in violation of its own privacy
policy.

Military interrogators at the U.S. detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, have been
given access to the medical records of individual prisoners, a breach of patient
confidentiality that ethicists describe as a violation of international medical standards
designed to protect captives from inhumane treatment.

SEATTLE – The Washington State Attorney
General's Office has acknowledged it
accidentally released some medical billing
records for more than 250 people.
In this day and age, the privacy of medical
records is a very sensitive matter, with new
federal laws now in effect.
If you know how to read the records, you can
tell everything from who had a urine analysis
to who had surgery and who got morphine.

The Dumb Disk Is Dead

A new kind of device that's much faster, denser, and
less expensive per MB than the current 50-year old
design is needed. Some of the notions being kicked
around research labs include tiny surface-mount diskarrays
on a card; nanoelectrical mechanical systems
(NEMS), which are like micromachines in silicon; and newer types of flash
memory.
