Who are the people behind the nation's leading public works projects? Oklahoma City's own public works director, Paul Brum, for one, according to the latest issue of Public Works magazine. Brum is noted by the American Public Works Association for his part in the revitalization of the North Canadian River and construction of three low-water dams as part of the penny sales tax- funded Metropolitan Area Projects.
A four-month, $4 million road resurfacing project on Magazine Street between St. Joseph and Calliope streets slated to begin today could include new bike lanes, according to the New Orleans Department of Public Works. That detail is expected, but still needs further review," Public Works Director Robert Mendoza said of the prospect of adding bike lanes along the commercial corridor.

A copyright system is designed to produce an ecology that nurtures the creation, dissemination, and enjoyment of works of authorship. When it works well, it encourages creators to generate new works, assists intermediaries in disseminating them widely, and supports readers, listeners, and viewers in enjoying them.

Recently, while at a Barnes and Noble book store, I noticed a woman with her arms loaded with children's books, stuffed animals and puppets.

Rosemary Sholtz, a Head Start teacher at Harding Elementary School in the Brightmoor area of northwest Detroit, smiled, rolled her eyes and said, "yeah right," with all the sarcasm she could muster. She, like many other great te...
