  • Part Four Jack the Call
    "I told him I wouldn't tell you," I explained. "It's so weird," he said. "I have no idea why he's mad at me all of a sudden. None. Can't you at least give me a hint?" I looked over at where August was across the room, talking to our moms. I wasn't about to break my solid oath that I wouldn't tell anyone about what he overheard at Halloween, but I felt bad for Jack. "Bleeding Scream," I whispered in his ear, and then walked away. Part Four Jack Now here is my secret. It is very simple. It is only with one's heart that one can see clearly. What is essential is invisible to the eye. —Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince The Call So in August my parents got this call from Mr. Tushman, the middle-school director. And my Mom said: "Maybe he calls all the new students to welcome them," and my dad said: "That's a lot of kids he'd be calling." So my mom called him back, and I could hear her talking to Mr. Tushman on the phone. This is exactly what she said: "Oh, hi, Mr. Tushman. This is Amanda Will, returning your call? Pause. Oh, thank you! That's so nice of you to say. He is looking forward to it. Pause. Yes. Pause. Yeah. Pause. Oh. Sure. Long pause. Ohhh. Uh-huh. Pause. Well, that's so nice of you to say. Pause. Sure.

  • THE THROW DOWN OVER TAKEDOWNS: an ANALYSIS of the Lenz INTERPRETATION of 17 U.S.C
    THE JOHN MARSHALL REVIEW OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LAW THE THROW DOWN OVER TAKEDOWNS: AN ANALYSIS OF THE LENz INTERPRETATION OF 17 U.S.C. § 512(F) IAN RUBENSTRUNK ABSTRACT Recently, a YouTube user and mother of two, Stephanie Lenz, filed a lawsuit against Universal Music Corporation which had the potential for broad impact on the internet. Everyone from politicians, to teachers, to musical artists could have gained more protection of their rights as internet users. With millions of people having access to the internet and YouTube "vloggers" reaching the million mark in subscribers, the court's interpretation of 17 U.S.C. § 512(f) could have had a significant impact. The issue in the case was what "any damages" meant in a clause creating liability for a party that incorrectly has material removed from a website. The court, however, did not take a position consistent with the intent of Congress when it passed the DMCA, adding § 512(f). This comment suggests that other courts reject the Lenz court's narrow interpretation and instead apply a broad interpretation that could allow greater recovery.

    In Concert Lyrics – In Concert The Liar (Tommy Makem/Tin Whistle Music) Chorus: Singin‟ whack fol toora lady toora lee, There is no one who can tell a lie like me; You may search until you tire, You won‟t find a bigger liar, I‟ve been lyin‟ since the dawn of history. I was born about ten thousand years ago, In Belmullet in the county of Mayo; It was me that chased the vermin, While St. Patrick preached a sermon; And I‟ll whup the man that says it isn‟t so. Chorus: I saw Eve go pickin‟ apples off a tree, She came over and she offered one to me; I said „Now look here Madam, Go and try your luck with Adam.” And went home and had some fish & chips & tea. Chorus: I saw Delilah cuttin‟ Samson‟s hair, She snipped away until his head was bae; When he couldn‟t run away, She married him next day, And opened up a barber‟s shop in Clare. Chorus: When Cromwell came to Ireland years ago, He didn‟t shed a drop of Irish blood you know; All the Irish started grievin‟ When they heard that he was leavin‟; If I knew a bigger lie I‟d tell you so. Chorus: „Twas durin‟ World War II I met them all, There was Roosevelt and Churchill and DeGaulle; One day I nearly fainted, I was havin‟ my house painted, There was Hitler hangin‟ paper in the hall. Chorus: In Concert Down in the Coalmine (Trad.) I am a jovial collier* lad, as blithe as blithe can be, And let the times be good or bad, it‟s all the same to me; It‟s little of the world I know, and care less for its ways, For where the dog-star never glows, I wear away my days.

  • Collective Soul Saturday, July 28
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE APRIL 10, 2012 RIVER ROCK CASINO RESORT & 96.9 JACK FM PRESENT COLLECTIVE SOUL SATURDAY, JULY 28 Richmond, BC – Collective Soul, taken from a line in Ayn Rand's book, The Fountainhead, was formed in the small town of Stockbridge, Georgia in the early '90s by songwriter Ed Roland (lead vocals/keyboards/guitars), guitarists Dean Roland and Ross Childress and rhythm section Will Turpin (bass/percussion) and Shane Evans (drums/percussion). Released in 1993 on the Atlanta indie label Rising Storm, Hints Allegations and Things Left Unsaid featured the #1 hit single, “Shine”. The album proved popular enough on the local level that it was picked up the following year by Atlantic Records and went on to achieve Double Platinum status. They then released their second album, Collective Soul in 1995 which featured the #1 hits, “December", “Where The River Flows” and “The World I Know” along with “Gel” and “Smashing Young Man”. The album went Triple Platinum and spent 76 weeks on the Billboard Top 200 charts. Their 1997 album, Disciplined Breakdown produced two more #1 hits, “Precious Declaration” and “Listen” followed two years later with Dosage which featured the #1 hit single, “Heavy” along with “Run”, “Needs” and “Tremble For My Beloved”. In 2000, the band released Blender which featured the hit singles, “Why, Pt. 2”, “Vent” and “Perfect Day” … a duet with Roland and Elton John. They then returned to their roots in 2004 welcoming new guitarist Joel Kosche as Ross’ replacement and releasing the stripped-down and dynamic Youth on its own El Music Group imprint.
