Each week I receive what is called the "Internet Scouting Report" via email.
Done by the University of Wisconsin's Computer Science Department, it is a
glimpse into new web sites of interest that have come on line.  This weeks
is representative of what every week is like.

====== Research and Education ====

3.  The Hauser Center for Nonprofit Organizations [pdf]
http://www.ksg.harvard.edu/hauser/

Headed by Professor Derek Bok (the former president of Harvard University),
the Hauser Center for Nonprofit Organizations was launched in 1997 with a
mission "to expand understanding and accelerate critical thinking about
civil society among scholars, practitioners, policy makers, and the general
public." As part of working towards achieving this goal, the Hauser Center's
Web site contains information about ongoing research projects, events
sponsored under its direction, and publications conducted under the auspices
of the Center. Visitors will want to examine the research section, as they
will find valuable information on the Center's current work, which ranges
from work in the nonprofit sector, as well as public policy, philanthropy
and social investing. The Hauser Center Working Paper Series is also
available here, reaching back to the year 2000, and addressing such topics
as The Role of NGOs in Human Security and Social Entrepreneurship and Social
Transformation. [KMG]


4.  Cultural Policy & the Arts: National Data Archive
http://www.cpanda.org/

Funded by the Pew Charitable Trusts and located at Princeton University, the
Cultural Policy & the Arts National Data Archive (CPANDA) is the world's
first interactive digital archive of policy-relevant data on the arts and
cultural policy in the United States. Through its work, CPANDA seeks to
"guide researchers to sources of high quality information about arts &
cultural policy issues, contribute new knowledge to the academic field of
arts and cultural policy studies, and promote open and equitable access to
archived data." The site itself is divided into four primary sections: the
Data Archive, Quick Facts, Research Guides, and Other Resources. The data
archive consists of machine-readable files that contain numeric data that
will be helpful to those concerned with arts and cultural policy. One recent
addition in this area is the data set from the 1998 survey of cultural
programs for adults in public libraries in the United States. The Quick
Facts section contains answers to such basic questions as How many artists
are there? and How many people participate in arts and cultural activities?.
The Research Guides section contains a series of guides highlighting data on
arts and cultural policy issues. Finally, the Other Resources section
contains a number of links to other outside resources such as academic
centers, nonprofit organizations, external data sources, working papers, and
online journals. [KMG]


5.  GenderNet
http://www.worldbank.org/gender/

A number of reports over the past decade have paid great attention to the
numerous gender inequities that exist throughout both the "developed" and
"developing" nations of the world. As part of its vast program of
activities, the World Bank has developed this site, which describes how the
Bank "seeks to reduce gender disparities and enhance women's participation
in economic development through its programs and projects."  Along with
describing the World Bank's programs, the site provides a host of gender
statistics and provides updated research reports, and helpful development
resources. The development resource section is particularly useful as it
contains practical how-to strategies that may be used to close the gender
gap in such areas as the digital divide, participation in rural development,
and transport. Visitors will also want to take a look at GenderStats, which
is an electronic database of gender statistics and indicators culled from
countries across the globe, from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe. [KMG]


6.  CEOs for Cities [pdf]
http://www.ceosforcities.org/

The past few years have seen a growing number of organizations,
institutions, and national think tanks express an increasing concern for
sustaining the competitive economic advantage of major urban areas. One such
group is CEOS for Cities, which is a national bipartisan alliance of mayors,
corporate executives, university presidents, and other nonprofit leaders
whose primary directive is to advance the economic competitiveness of
cities. The group's executive committee includes such powerful leaders as
Mayor Richard M. Daley of Chicago and Paul S. Grogan, the CEO of the Boston
Foundation. One of the site's best features is the Trends and Data Analysis
Reports, coupled with the Best Practice reports. Many of these documents are
co-authored with other like-minded institutions, such as the Brookings
Institution, and delve into such topics as What the IT Revolution Means for
Regional Economic Development and Leveraging Colleges and Universities for
Urban Economic Revitalization: An Action Agenda. [KMG]


7.  Project for Public Spaces
http://www.pps.org/

Given the heated discussion and debate surrounding the future redevelopment
of the World Trade Center site, it is no surprise that there is a great deal
of interest in public places, along with much dissent about what makes an
effective and meaningful public place. Drawing on the work of the late
William H. Whyte (whose seminal book, The Social Life of Small Urban Spaces
is still read today), the Project for Public Spaces is dedicated to creating
and sustaining public spaces that build communities. The site contains a
number of best practices information on such places as parks, plazas,
streets, public buildings, and public markets that will be of great interest
to planners, civic officials, landscape architects, and anyone seeking to
restore meaning and usability to a wide variety of places. Additionally,
visitors can elect to subscribe to PPS's free bi-monthly newsletter, Making
Places. [KMG]


8.  Just for Kids! Canada Hurricane Center
http://www.ns.ec.gc.ca/weather/hurricane/kids.html

If you are searching for resources to help teach children all about
hurricanes, then you should visit this Environmental Canada site. First, a
glossary of hurricane terms is provided to help children understand the
essentials. Following, visitors can gain a basic understanding of how
hurricanes form and why they spin. To help students further understand the
process, the site describes how to make your own hurricane in the bathtub.
Users can find essential guidance on how to prepare for a hurricane and what
to do during a hurricane. The site also provides a fun Hurricane Word Search
puzzle. Lastly, students can learn interesting facts about previous
hurricanes such as the longest lasting cyclone and the largest hurricane.
This site is also reviewed in the September 19, 2003 _NSDL Physical Sciences
Report_. [RME]


9.  South African Government Online [pdf]
http://www.gov.za/

Over the past few years, more and more national governments have
aggressively sought to establish a highly visible presence on the Internet.
South Africa's official government site combines pertinent information about
elected officials with important documents and general information about the
country. From the homepage, visitors can learn about the current president,
Mr. Thabo Mbeki, and browse through an archive of his speeches and press
releases. Also on the homepage are sections that explain South Africa's
provincial and local units of governance, along with providing some basic
information about the country taken from the most recent edition of the
South Africa Yearbook. Those interested in international policy affairs will
want to be certain to browse through the Key Issues section of the site as
it contains materials on various national initiatives and programs, such as
the country's partnership against HIV and AIDS, its recent growth and
development summit, and its partnerships with other African nations. [KMG]


10. NATURE: Horse and Rider [pdf, Real One Player]
http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/horseandrider/index.html

This Web site is the online companion to the recent PBS NATURE documentary
"Horse and Rider," which "explores a fascinating partnership between animal
and human." Click on For Teachers on the main Web page to find an
interdisciplinary lesson plan for grades 9-12. The lesson, titled Creating
the "Perfect" Horse, has students study horse biology and behavior, explore
the reasons why different horse breeds were developed, and analyze research
findings to determine if breeding an all-purpose horse is practical or even
possible. The lesson plan provides downloadable worksheets, and the main Web
page contains some fun special features, including video clips. This site is
also reviewed in the September 19, 2003 _NSDL Life Sciences Report_. [RS]



====== General Interest ====

11. Two on James Dickey
Atlantic Online: James Dickey [RealOnePlayer]
http://www.theatlantic.com/unbound/poetry/dickey/jdindex.htm
James Dickey Newsletter & James Dickey Society
http://www.jamesdickey.org/

Born in Atlanta, Georgia on February 2, 1923, James Lafayette Dickey would
become a distinguished poet, novelist, and essayist during his life, along
with an appointment as the Consultant in Poetry to the Library of Congress
in the 1960s. Dickey dropped out of college during World War II to serve in
the Army Air Corps, where he also became a voracious reader, and began to
write. Upon his return to the United States, Dickey returned to school at
Vanderbilt University, where he received both his BA and MA in English.
After working for a time in advertising, Dickey received a Guggenheim
Fellowship, and began a long career in writing and teaching that would last
until his death in 1997. The first link leads to a page provided by the
Atlantic Monthly that features Dickey reading several of his own works,
along with several articles from the Atlantic Monthly by Peter Davison that
discuss Dickey's work. The second link leads to the James Dickey Newsletter
and James Dickey Society Web page, which features information about Dickey
along with information about events sponsored by the Society. [KMG]


12. The British Museum COMPASS
http://www.thebritishmuseum.ac.uk/compass/

To help visitors find treasures in its vast holdings, the British Museum
presents COMPASS, which is based on a database of around 5000 objects
selected from the Museum's collections. Simple keyword searches work well in
COMPASS, and searches can be limited to a particular index. Who? searches
for a particular person, What? searches for particular objects, How? for
processes and materials, and Where/When? for geography and date. COMPASS
automatically adds the word and between words, just like Google. Object
pages include detailed information, written for the average museum go-er,
with links into an online glossary, although we were unable to discover why
a search on sextant returned astrolabes (consulting another dictionary
revealed that the astrolabe was an nautical instrument used prior to the
sextant). There are also guided tours, on a huge list of subjects from 100
Views of Mount Fuji to the Wetwang Chariot Burial, with Chinese Jade,
several Egypt tours, and over 45 Highlights of the British Museum in
between. Another great way to approach COMPASS is to try the Galleries
search (found on the search page) where selecting any one of about 35
gallery names displays all the objects in that room. [DS]


13. Entertaining America: Jews, Movies, and Broadcasting
http://entertainingamerica.thejewishmuseum.org/online/

Since the rise of the nickelodeons, Jews have been bringing their own
performance sensibilities to audiences all over the United States and the
world in many different incarnations. Ranging from the comic genius of Jerry
Lewis to the vaudeville legend Al Jolson, Jews (like many other ethnic
groups) have become an indelible piece of the American entertainment fabric.
Provided by The Jewish Museum (in tandem with an ongoing exhibit at the
museum in New York), this online exhibit takes a look at certain popular
works (like The Jazz Singer) and the rise of Yiddish film and radio as a way
of looking at the relationships between Jews and American entertainment
media. Through the exhibit, visitors can read brief essays and view objects
related to such cultural phenomena as Seinfeld, Your Show of Shows, and
Yiddish film. [KMG]


14. Baldy Editorial Cartoons, 1946-1982, 1997: The Clifford H. Baldowski
Collection at the Richard B. Russell Library
http://callisto.gsu.edu:80/cgi-bin/door/link.cgi?dbs=bald

Dating back to the days of Thomas Nast, editorial cartoonists have often
been the individuals who have most accurately depicted (or parodied) the
political climate and culture of the United States. This recent online
collection from the Digital Library of Georgia pays tribute to one of their
own, Clifford "Baldy" Baldowski, who spent most of his career drawing
editorial cartoons for the Atlanta Constitution. Baldowski was born in 1917
in Augusta, and after a career as a navigator in the Army Air Corps during
World War II, he joined the Augusta Chronicle as a part-time cartoonist. In
1950, he joined the editorial department of the Atlanta Constitution, where
he remained until he retired in 1983. Baldowski received numerous accolades
during his career, including a Pulitzer Prize nomination for his 1964
cartoon, Goldwaterloo, which commented on the presidential campaign of US
Senator Barry Goldwater. This cartoon, along with approximately 2500 others,
may be viewed at this site. Users may utilize the embedded search engine to
browse by keywords. [KMG]


15. Project Vote Smart
http://www.vote-smart.org/index.htm

Founded in 1992 by a diverse group of leaders (including former Presidents
Jimmy Carter and Gerald Ford), Project Vote Smart is a "citizen's
organization dedicated to serving all Americans with accurate and unbiased
information for electoral decision-making." PVS is a non-profit independent
organization that is funded through private donations and grants from
various foundations, including the Carnegie, Ford, and Revson Foundations.
>From their site, the general public can find out a great deal of information
about local, state, and national government officials and political
candidates, including their voting records and which legislation they have
sponsored in the past. The information about candidates and elected
officials is divided into five basic categories, including issue positions,
campaign finances, voting records, and performance evaluations. Most
recently, PVS has created a special section devoted to providing the most
current and comprehensive information on 2004 presidential candidates. [KMG]


16. Breaking and Making Tradition: Women at the University of Virginia
http://www.lib.virginia.edu/speccol/exhibits/women/

By the turn of the 19th century, while many states had made provisions for
educating women at the college level, Virginia had no such initiatives, and
would not admit a full class of undergraduate women until 1970. This special
online exhibit, developed by Larissa Mehmet at the Special Collections
Library at the University of Virginia, traces the history of the education
of women at the institution from the creation of the Summer Normal Institute
in 1880 (at which students did not receive academic credit) to the present,
where women make up fifty-five percent of the undergraduate student body.
Visitors can peruse this rather compelling online exhibit, reading a number
of brief historical essays, and viewing such primary documents as a letter
from Thomas Jefferson to Nathaniel Burwell from 1818, where Jefferson
remarks that the idea of educating women "is a subject on which I have not
thought much." The site is rounded out by a timeline, and a place for alumna
to share their memories. [KMG]


17. BBC History: Audio and Video [QuickTime, RealOnePlayer]
http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/multimedia_zone/audio_video/

Known around the world for its fine radio and television documentaries, the
BBC has selected a number of audio and video clips from some of the more
recent programs and placed them on this site for the Web-browsing public to
peruse. Spanning several millennia, the two sections of audio clips hone in
on the World War One experience and the experiences of different individuals
in ancient Egypt. Both of these historical eras are brought to life by
actors who read from a number of primary documents, including diaries and
letters. In the section dealing with World War One, visitors can hear about
the horror of gas attacks, learn about what it was like to be on night
patrol, and life in the trenches. The section on ancient Egypt allows
visitors to hear actors portray the words of Princess Kiya, and the soldier
Khusobek, among others. The video clips available here are from Simon
Schama's series on the history of Britain, Julian Richards' explorations
into Viking Britain, and Ancient Apocalypses, which takes a look at how
human civilizations have been undermined by natural forces throughout
history. [KMG]

Washington Center for the Book at the Seattle Public Library
http://www.spl.org/wacentbook/centbook.html

Over the past few decades, librarians have fought an uphill battle to change
the public's perceptions of the vocation as one that is characterized by
individuals who patrol the library telling patrons to be quiet or peering
over a pair of bifocals from behind a reference desk. A new action figure
developed by the Archie McPhee Toy company in Seattle plays on some of these
popular stereotypes and features a bespectacled woman in a cardigan, long
plain skirt, and sensible shoes, who moves her index finger to her lips with
"amazing push-button shushing action." The model for the actual doll is
Nancy Pearl, a real-life librarian in Seattle, who is the executive director
of Seattle Public Library?s Washington Center for the Book. Some are not so
happy with the doll (which will be released in October), and Pearl has been
deluged by emails and phone calls, including one unsigned email that accused
Pearl of setting the profession back 30 years. Pearl does not regret posing
for the doll, remarking that "It?s a lovely idea and a lovely tribute to my
chosen profession."

The first link leads to a recent news article from the Seattle Post-
Intelligencer about the various reactions to the upcoming librarian action
figure doll. The second link, provided by the Seattle Times, talks at length
about Helen Pearl and her many accolades, including the 2003 Washington
Humanities Award. The third link will take visitors to an audio news story
from NPR?s All Things Considered where Melissa Block interviews Pearl. The
fourth link leads to an opinion piece from the Purdue Exponent (authored by
Matt Poston) that celebrates the new librarian action figure as a "long-
overdue tribute" to librarians. The fifth link leads to the page from the
Archie McPhee company where visitors can learn more about the upcoming
librarian action figure. The final link leads to the Washington Center for
the Book homepage, which contains information about the Center?s activities,
including the very popular (and often-imitated) If All of Seattle Read the
Same Book program, designed to foster dialogue and discussion about a single
book. [KMG]
