Tselnik: Check, Raise, or Fold: Poker and the Unlawful Internet Gambling E NOTE CHECK, RAISE, OR FOLD: POKER AND THE UNLAWFUL INTERNET GAMBLING ENFORCEMENT ACT I. INTRODUCTION Gambling permeates throughout American society. One cannot watch television without stumbling upon a poker show,' listen to the radio without hearing the amount of today's lotto jackpot,2 or go on the Internet without encountering an advertisement for a gambling website. When one thinks of this country's history, the image of the frontier saloon with its raucous drinking and debauchery goes hand in hand with gambling, mainly poker. In nearly every state in the Union, to one extent or another, there exists some form of legalized gambling.3 With such an ever pervasive culture of gambling in this country, why is Internet gambling the bane that needs to be eradicated from modem society? The Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 20064 ("Act" or "UIGEA") is only the most recent legislation passed by Congress in an attempt to curb the ongoing "problem" that is Internet gambling.5 Simply stated, the Act prevents those transactions that are deemed restricted from being settled through any financial institution, including banks and credit cards.

  • Limited Appearance Statement Of
    July 26, 2013 By US Mail Commissioner Allison M. Macfarlane U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Mail Stop 0-16G4 Washington, DC 20555 Dear Allison M. Macfarlane, Enclosed is a copy of "Generating Influence," Common Cause/New York's comprehensive study of Entergy Corporation's political spending and public relations campaign to secure new operating licenses for the Indian Point nuclear power plant in Buchanan, New York. As you are well aware, Entergy is currently in the late stages of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission license renewal process that began in 2007. While Common Cause takes no position on the relicensing of Indian Point, we strongly believe that the final decision should be based on objective analysis of the costs and benefits and not unduly shaped by the well-funded lobbying, campaign contributions, and publicity campaigns of Entergy Corporation. As such, it is crucial that NRC officials are fully aware of the extraordinary extent to which the appearance of "public support" for the Indian Point nuclear power plant appears to have been generated by the deceptive strategies of Entergy Corporation. In addition to the "inside game" of lobbying and campaign contributions, Entergy has engaged in an extensive "outside game" of public relations and grassroots "astroturfing" strategies. From making targeted campaign contributions and hiring former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani to appear in an advertising campaign, to cultivating influential"front group" coalitions of business interests, unions, local political leaders, and non-profits (NY AREA and SHARE), Entergy is working the full spectrum of lobbying and publicity strategies in an all-out effort to keep Indian Point open.

  • Representations of Social Media in Popular Discourse
    REPRESENTATIONS OF SOCIAL MEDIA IN POPULAR DISCOURSE REPRESENTATIONS OF SOCIAL MEDIA IN POPULAR DISCOURSE By PAMELA INGLETON, B.A. (Hons), M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University © Copyright by Pamela Ingleton, December 2017 McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2017) Hamilton, Ontario (English and Cultural Studies) TITLE: Representations of Social Media in Popular Discourse AUTHOR: Pamela Ingleton, B.A. (Hons) (Queen’s University), M.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Professor Lorraine York NUMBER OF PAGES: ix, 248 ii Lay Abstract This sandwich thesis of works published from 2010 – 2017 considers how we talk and write about social media in relation to a variety of other concerns: authorship and popular fiction, writing and publishing, archives and everyday life, celebrity and the opaque morality of media promotion. The project addresses social networking platforms (primarily Twitter and Facebook) and those who serve and critique their interests (authors, readers, academics, “everyday people,” national archives, celebrities and filmmakers), often focusing on the “meta” of the media they take as their focus: “extratexts,” reviews and interviews, tweets about books and books about tweets, critical reception, etc. By examining writing on and about social media, this work offers an alternative, context-specific approach to new media scholarship that, in its examination of things said and unsaid, will help inform our contemporary understanding of social media and, by extension, our social media experience. iii Abstract This sandwich thesis of works published from 2010 – 2017 takes up the discursive articulation of “social media” as a mobilizing concept in relation to a variety of other concerns: authorship and popular fiction, writing and publishing, archives and everyday life, celebrity and the opaque morality of media promotion.
