This theory that justifies and supports the foundation for the era of Postmodernism is totally false.” George Sakkal, 2011 Artist, educator, writer and research analyst George Sakkal will provide evidence adapted and applied from the fields of cognitive psychology and neuroscience discoveries, made since 1980, to prove conclusively that Marcel Duchamp’s Postmodern conceptual – anti-retinal theory of art is bogus. You are encouraged to attend Sakkal’s revolutionary, thought provoking presentation, “The Problem with Postmodern Art Theory: The Visual versus the Conceptual”. This lecture will be held on Saturday, March 26, 2011, at 2:00 p.m. on Stage # 1. This lecture will reveal the myth of Duchamp’s theory and advance in its place the Human Creative Response, and initi- ate the art movement, CUVISM, Cognitive Unconscious Visual- ism. You are invited to visit him at his Solo Booth # S 266 to view cuvistic, unconscious mind inspired collage art, typi- fied by the work, “Ascending a Staircase” shown right. 8 GeorGe Sakkal: Booth NumBer.

    December 22, 2014 Jim Hood Mississippi Attorney General Walter Sillers Building 550 High Street, Suite 1200 Jackson, MS 39201 Dear Attorney General Hood: According to recent news reports, your office, in active coordination with the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) and its member companies, has been and remains engaged in a coordinated campaign to shut down and block access to individual websites through backdoor methods resoundingly rejected by the public and federal lawmakers. Publications including the New York Times, the Huffington Post, and The Verge are reporting that the MPAA responded to the failure of the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) in 2012 by quietly searching for alternate means to accomplish key provisions of the bill, such as website blocking and search filtering. It is our understanding that those efforts include developing legal theories and even drafting civil investigation demand letters for state attorneys general to facilitate actions against websites and search engines. The goal of these efforts mirrors the goal of SOPA: to create new legal tools that will compel online service providers to remove content from the Internet with little, if any, meaningful due process. While we recognize these reports may be incomplete, the available information nevertheless leaves us deeply concerned. As demonstrated in the debate over SOPA, compelled website blocking by online service providers poses an unjustifiable threat to the security of the Domain Name System (DNS), the basic address book of the Internet. Similarly, requiring third parties to filter the contents of DNS lookups and search results threatens the Internet as a tool and forum for free expression.

  • Net Neutrality Reply Comments Coalition Letter.Docx
    September 15, 2014 Tom Wheeler, Chairman Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street, SW Washington, DC 20554 Dear Chairman Wheeler: We urge you not to base new net neutrality regulations on Title II. Attempting to retrofit the onerous set of regulations developed for the monopoly telephony network onto the Internet would be a disaster for Internet users everywhere. That’s why it has been rejected by four FCC Chairmen (of both parties), leading Democratic Senators as early as 1998, 74 House Democrats as late as 2010,1 all Congressional Republicans, and the entire broadband industry. Government should be able to police any deals between broadband companies and content providers to make sure they don’t harm consumers or competition. But the FCC doesn’t need Title II to do that. The FCC has already claimed vast authority under Section 706, including the power to issue new net neutrality rules. Title II won’t actually do what those pushing it claim: Title II would not ban “paid prioritization.”2 It’s not even yet clear what that vague term means, but it would certainly include some deals that would actually help users. If anything, Title II would probably make paid prioritization more likely:3 Title II’s costs and price controls could force broadband providers to turn to paid prioritization as a new revenue source. Globally, imposing Title II would validate efforts by European carriers to impose sender-pays rules, the default assumption of the Title II-style regimes in Europe. That means American web companies would have to pay European carriers to deliver traffic to European users — the very opposite of net neutrality.

Available at: http://chicagounbound.uchicago.edu/uclf/vol2008/iss1/14 This Comment is brought to you for free and open access by Chicago Unbound. It has been accepted for inclusion in University of Chicago Legal Forum by an authorized administrator of Chicago Unbound. For more information, please contact [email protected]. D, None of the Above: On the FCC Approach to VoIP Regulation Marc Elzweigt The most intuitive description of voice over internet protocol ("VoIP") is simply this: "Now you can make telephone calls over the internet." Call that the Luddite explanation of VoIP (pro- nounced "voyp"), and one could leave it there. Technical terms that could be included are omitted in favor of the most direct im- age. Whatever you imagine or think happens between your phone and somebody else's phone-with VoIP, that happens over the internet. But so much is left out that way. Stated more specifically, VoIP provides for digital transmission of a voice signal over an internet protocol ("IP") based network, substituted for transmis- sion over the public switched telephone network ("PSTN").1 This is the essential distinction between the two, though technical aspects of VoIP will be discussed in greater detail later in this Comment.
