France. (Oct 03 2003 23:59 GMT) - Polish soldiers in Iraq claim to have found French anti-aircraft missiles in one of Saddam's ammunition dumps. No big story there. However, these missiles were produced in 2003! Trustworthy as ever, the French move to explain the presence of weapons designed to shoot down American planes and kill American servicemen... |

Media Librarian Celebrates 25 Years with State Film Festival (Oct 03 2003 23:59 GMT) - Steve Fesenmaier writes "I was hired by state librarian Fred Glazer, director of the West Virginia Library Commission, in June 1978, right out of library school. He had used federal funds to start the last new 16-mm film library in the world in 1976 after doing a survey of the state's public libraries. They overwhelmingly told him they wanted access to the great educational films other states had had since the boom after WW II. |

It's Like Trying to Smoke Crack and Go to Sleep (Oct 03 2003 23:58 GMT) - Binary XML Standard(s): Just Say No Omri and Joshua have already posted the two main reasons why attempting to create a binary XML standard is folly (a) the various use cases and requirements are contradictory (small message size for low bandwidth situations and minimal parsing/serialization time for sitautions where minimizing processing time is prime) thus a single standard is unlikely to satisfy a large proportion of the requesters and (b) creation of a binary XML standard especially by an organization such as the W3C muddies the water with regards to interop, people already have to worry about the interop pain that will occur whenever XML 1.1 gets out of the door (which is why Elliotte Rusty Harold advises avoiding it like the plague) let alone adding one or more binary XML standards to the mix. On reading the various position papers submitted at the workshop it seems a number of the other participants such as IBM also had similar concerns. The W3C won't officially release the position papers for about a month or so but enterprising souls can use Google's cache and queries such as this one to get a sneak peak at the position papers. |

A few weeks ago, I e-mailed the author of Jpluck about support for OPML (another one of those XML standards you keep hearing about). With that feature in hand, I can import all of my favorite RSS feeds into Kwyjibo, my Clie. Think of it as a much-nicer, much more customizable AvantGo-type of service. Remember that one? |

I am currently running Real Myst and Neverwinter Nights on my system, and game play leaves a lot to be desired. I was wondering which I should upgrade first to improve performance the most, and then the second will soon follow. Thanks for your help. |
