Asymptotic consistency under large entropy sampling designs with unequal probabilities
A large part of survey sampling literature is devoted to unequal probabilities sampling designs without replacement. Brewer and Hanif (1983) provided a summary of these sampling designs. The maximum entropy designs is one of them. Consistency results have been proven for the maximum entropy sampling (Hájek, 1964). The aim is to give sufficient conditions under which Hájek (1964) consistency results still hold for large entropy sampling designs which are different from the maximum entropy design. These conditions involve modes of convergence of sampling designs towards the maximum entropy design. We show that these conditions are satisfied for the popular Rao-Sampford (Rao, 1965, Sampford, 1967) design. Our consistency results are applied to the Hájek (1964) simple variance estimator. This estimator does not require joint-inclusion probabilities and can be easily estimated using weighted least squares regression (Berger, 2004, 2005b). Deville (1999) conjectured that this estimator is suitable for any sampling designs (see also Brewer and Donadio, 2003). Our consistency result gives regularity conditions under which this estimator is consistent which justifies Deville’s (1999) conjecture
Illustrations-Proben-Album von Berger & Wirth, Leipzig, Buch- und Steindruckfarben-Fabrik, gegründet im Jahre 1823
Illustrations used as specimens of Berger & Wirth printing inks, black inks only. Mostly wood-engravings, but includes also some process blocks, two halftones and 1 lithograph. All the inks are identified; most of the blacks are EFF I, II or III. The printers are identified in every case; they are about evenly divided between Munich and Leipzi

Terry Berger
An interview with Terry Berger at the summer kitchen during the Easter on the Farm event at the Kutztown Pennsylvania German Cultural Heritage Center. Terry is very active in cooking demonstrations at both the Heritage Center and the Kutztown Folk Festival. I included some film of people visiting the summer kitchen to give a view of his work as a demonstrator

Helix surfaces in the Berger sphere
We characterize helix surfaces in the Berger sphere, that is surfaces which form a constant angle with the Hopf vector field. In particular, we show that, locally, a helix surface is determined by a suitable 1-parameter family of isometries of the Berger sphere and by a geodesic of a 2-torus in the 3-dimensional spher
