I suspect it is only a matter of time until Ms. Spear's point of view wins out entirely.
For the time being, Ms. Spear says she'll wear hose to board meetings 'or if there is reason to exude the highest professional appearance. I will not wear them if I will be in the office all day, because I believe one can be professional-looking without wearing hose.'

Precious Ramotswe has no blue steel pistol, just two desks, two chairs, a telephone and an old typewriter. Her tiny white van is incapable of high-speed chases and fiery stunts. Then there is Mma Ramotswe herself. (Mma is a local honorific.) Film sleuths usually exude chiseled sexiness and a noir persona. But as Mr. McCall Smith puts it, Precious Ramotswe is ''the fat lady detective'': rounded, not chiseled; softhearted, not dark.

The Help Desk – a modern oxymoron
Local authorities have been bullied by the regime to ‘share’, ‘out-source’ or ‘centralise’ their IT services. Of course, the designs promulgated are bad, ideological and without good method. Here is one such tale.
READER BOB LARKIN of Beverly was puzzled by an episode of the PBS series "History Detectives," recently re-aired, wherein the sleuths tried to discover whether they had the "original copy" of Robert E. Lee's surrender order. "Obviously they were looking for the original order," Larkin said in an e-mail. "How can a 'copy' be both an original and a duplicate?"
Original copy, as fans of George Carlin and Richard Lederer know, has been a staple of the joke-oxymoron list for decades, along with jumbo shrimp, guest conductor, terribly happy, and the like. But these are only oxymoronic if you pretend that you're ignorant of one sense of the modifying word - that you think "jumbo" is an absolute measure, you've never used "guest" to mean "substitute" ("guest conductor"), and you believe "terribly" must involve terror.
That's just fooling around, though. We know better, just as we know that copy means both "one of the multiple specimens of a work" ("do you have a copy of 'Middlemarch'?") and a replica ("it's a copy, not an original").
