[email protected] HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL Measure Y would delay funding cuts, won’t prevent them BY NICK TABOREK Daily Press Staff Writer SMMUSD HDQTRS Even if voters approve a half percent sales tax increase on Nov. 2 and officials direct half of the new revenue to public schools, the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District will have exhausted its reserves and will again face cuts by the 2012-13 school year, according to district officials’ latest projections. SMMUSD Finance Director Jan Maez said the budget recently approved by the state legislature was slightly better than expected for the district this fiscal year because it included a $250 per-student annual payment that had been on the chop- ping block. (That amount is about 2 percent of the annual pupil payment the district receives from the state). The “bit of good news,” for this budget year, though, was offset by other reductions in payments to schools during the next two Morgan Genser [email protected] years, Maez said.

    modelsofpride.org | 1 WELCOME TO THE 25TH ANNUAL MODELS OF PRIDE CONFERENCE! 25 years ago, this conference was started by a small group of visionaries who believed LGBTQ youth needed a safe, supportive place to connect with each other and be inspired by role models who had gone before them. The first conference, sponsored by a commission of the Los Angeles Unified School District’s Commission on LGBT Rights, was held in 1993 at Occidental College, with about 60 youth in attendance. Today, we expect over 1,500 youth at Models of Pride and over 350 participants in the Parent and Professional Institute. We have much to celebrate. As we gather today in our opening session, we will celebrate the people who had the vision to start this conference, those who put in the time, energy and work to take an idea and make it a reality. And we will honor the two women who are credited with taking that original idea and keeping it going for the following 17 years – Virginia Uribe and Gail Rolf. Our hope for our time together is that each of you would be inspired by these visionary leaders to take the ideas, dreams and visions you have and put in the work to make them a reality. Our conference theme is: Together We Rise. We chose this theme because, in the midst of the daunting and scary political times we are living in, we want to acknowledge that, as a community, we are strong and powerful and resilient. Our community has overcome tremendous challenges, and, if we work together, we will triumph and rise above Ready to talk? our current adversaries and obstacles.

    GV DOCUMENTARY SERIES www.graffitiverite.comwww.graffitiverite.com GV13 ROLLER GURL A Complicated ‘Game-Time’ Love Affair A new documentary film from multi award-winning filmmaker, Bob Bryan Reviews GV13 is very well done, good pacing, and an accurate depiction of one of the lesser known sports. Filmmaker Bob Bryan did an excellent job using natural sound and numer- ous sources to tell the story. Obviously allot of work was put into this documentary that’s a must-see for anyone involved in Roller Derby, but would also be entertaining to the non-sports fan. - Mike Scott, KSPR Sports Director Springfield, MO “Roller Gurl is the best Documentary I have seen about Roller Derby!“ I really enjoyed this documentary. It’s the best I have seen about roller derby. I really think you captured the true athleticism of modern day roller derby, and as a derby girl myself, I really appreciate that. Thank you for sharing. - Pinky Pokerface aka Tarina Smith OC Roller Girls, Orange Co., CA GV13 ROLLER GURL: A complicated “Game-Time” Love Affair is probably not what people (non-derby) will expect, in a derby documentary. It is, however, at least from my experience, an excellent and dynamic portrayal of the girls behind the derby names. “Game-Time” captures the soul of derby! As the girls from Angel City Derby Girls and Long Beach Roller Derby explain their derby names and their motivation for joining the sport, I think that non-derby people (NDP) will start to understand what derby really means to the girls that play.

  • Confusion in Shanghai
    PREVIEW ISSUE THREE – 17TH APRIL 2012 CONFUSION IN SHANGHAI Problems in China - is Tigana or Anelka the manager of Shenhua? Frenchman Jean Tigana, who took over as manager of Shenhua's last December, was rumored to be on the way out after missing a pre-match press conference on Thursday, during which it was announced French superstar striker Nicolas Anelka will help coach the team. Shenhua are 11th in the Chinese Super League with just one win, two draws and two losses in five games under Tigana. The club sacked his three coaches on Thursday, but denied Tigana was leaving. The Chinese media speculated that Tigana had lost control of the team and was ready to step down after reaching an agreement on his remaining contract. It was also reported that Anelka and his agent played crucial roles in choosing the club's new coaching team. To add more confusion, Anelka claimed on Twitter that he'd become the team's manager. "It's official. I just become the new player-manager of Shanghai Shenhua," and this only intensified after Tigana was absent when Shanghia lost 1-0 to Tianjin Teda on Friday.

  • Intellectual Property Norms Governing Roller Derby Pseudonyms
    Articles Talk Derby to Me: Intellectual Property Norms Governing Roller Derby Pseudonyms David Fagundes* Some groups use endemic social norms rather than formal law to regulate their intellectual property (IP). This qualitative empirical study extends and critiques existing work on this topic by examining how roller derby skaters guarantee exclusive use of the pseudonyms under which they compete. Roller derby names are a central part of this countercultural, all-girl sport, adding to its distinctive combination of punk and camp. Skaters have developed an elabo- rate rule structure, registration system, and governance regime to protect the uniqueness of their pseudonyms. The development of this extralegal governance scheme despite the ready availability of IP theories (e.g., trademark, right of publicity) to protect derby names shows that IP norms emerge independently of law’s substantive (un)availability, so long as the relevant group is close-knit and the norms are welfare enhancing. These groups are especially likely to craft formal regulation and registration schemes to buttress informal norms where the relevant community is identity constitutive and where the intangible goods arise from nonmarket production. This study also suggests another way of thinking about the problem of supplying property systems, casts (further) doubt on the coherence of the prevailing neoclassical economic assumptions underlying IP law, and reflects on what it means for rules to be law. * Associate Professor, Southwestern Law School.
