Abstract
We solve problem x proposed by O. Oloa, AMM xxx 2012 {\bf 119?} (to appear), p. yyy for certain definite logarithmic integrals. A number of generating functions are developed with certain coefficients , and some extensions are presented. The explicit relation of to N\"{o}rlund numbers is discussed. Certain inequalities are conjectured for the sequence of coefficients, including its convexity, and an upper bound is demonstrated. It is shown that values may be used to express the Stieltjes constants for the Hurwitz and Riemann zeta functions, as well as values of these zeta functions at integer argument. Other summations with the coefficients are presented.
