Это библиотека Конгресса
Oct. 9th, 2007 06:38 amWASHINGTON POST -- For 36 years -- until his retirement in 2000 -- Whittington worked at the Library of Congress. He started out fetching books and ended up as curator of the Main Reading Room. Along the way, he was given the responsibility of overseeing the library's collection of phone books.
"I was in charge of every phone book in the freaking world," he says.
Working with phone books, he learned how to organize, catalogue and archive a collection. And he took those skills home, where he was building a couple of archives of his own. The first was a collection of R&B and doo-wop music, which now includes 5,000 records. The second was pornography.

Oct. 9th, 2007 10:48 amWASHINGTON POST -- Частное разведывательное управление SITE сумело перехватить готовящееся обращение бин Ладена, и передало его в ЦРУ -- с условием, что оно не будет разглашаться до официального обнародования самим бин Ладеном. ЦРУ сдержать слово не сумело. "Techniques that took years to develop are now ineffective and worthless," said Rita Katz, the firm's 44-year-old founder. Надо соображать, с кем имеешь дело, очевидно.
SITE -- an acronym for the Search for International Terrorist Entities -- was established in 2002 with the stated goal of tracking and exposing terrorist groups, according to the company's Web site. Katz, an Iraqi-born Israeli citizen whose father was executed by Saddam Hussein in the 1960s, has made the investigation of terrorist groups a passionate quest.
