    Strange Bedfellows: Network Neutrality‘S Unifying Influence†

    STRANGE BEDFELLOWS: NETWORK NEUTRALITY‘S UNIFYING INFLUENCE† Marvin Ammori* I want to talk about something called network (or ―net‖) neutrality. Let me begin, though, with a story involving short codes. For those unfamiliar with what a short code is, recall the voting process on American Idol and the little code that you can punch into your cell phone to vote for your favorite singer.1 Short codes are not ten digit numbers; rather, they are more like five or six.2 In theory, anyone can get a short code. Presidential candidates use short codes in their campaigns to communicate with their followers. For instance, a person could have signed up and Barack Obama would have sent them a message through a short code when he chose Joe Biden as his running mate.3 A few years ago, an abortion rights group called NARAL Pro-Choice America wanted a short code to communicate with its own followers.4 NARAL‘s goal was not to send ―spam‖; instead, the short code was directed to people who agreed with their message.5 Verizon rejected the idea of a short code for this group because, according to Verizon, NARAL was engaged in ―controversial‖ speech. The New York Times printed a front page article about this.6 Many people who read the story wondered if they really needed a permission slip from Verizon, or from anyone else, to communicate about political things that they care about. In response † This speech is adapted for publication and was originally presented at a panel discussion as part of the Regent University Law Review and The Federalist Society for Law & Public Policy Studies Media and Law Symposium at Regent University School of Law, October 9–10, 2009.

    Inciting the Rank and File: the Impact of Actors' Equity and Labor Strike

    Inciting the Rank and File: The Impact of Actors’ Equity and Labor Strike Rachel Shane, PhD, University of Kentucky Abstract Stage actors have long been an integral element of the cultural community in the United States. From vaudeville to the Broadway stage, actors have carved a niche for themselves in the theatrical landscape of this country. Actors are both artists and workers within the theatrical industry. As the latter, actors are members of the labor movement and engage in traditional organized labor activities. This article explores why the members of Actors’ Equity Association have been motivated to strike against theatrical producers and reveals organizational weaknesses inherent when artists join the labor movement. Keywords Actors’ Equity Association, actors’ strike, cultural unions, labor in the arts Address correspondence to Rachel Shane, PhD, Director, Arts Administration Program, University of Kentucky, 111 Fine Arts Building, Lexington, KY 40506-0022.

Photo Credit: Barry Sloan ADVERTISEMENT | ADVERTISE ON NEWSDAY HIGHLIGHTS ▪ Hofstra University running Personal Enrichment In Retirement ▪ Peer-to-peer presentations, social activities keep members active Pithy anecdotes about William F. Buckley Jr. drew several rounds of chuckles during a lecture about the late conservative author and TV host, presented recently to a group of retirees at Hofstra University. The speaker, Al Drattell, 84, of Floral Park, shared a firsthand story from when he was a reporter assigned to cover a Buckley address: A court stenographer was taking notes, Drattell said. “She interrupted his speech: ‘Mr. Buckley, how do you spell that word,’ she asked. He spelled it and went on with his speech,” Drattell said. “And when he was asked what would happen if he won when he ran for mayor of New York City in 1965, he said, ‘Demand a recount.’ In his own way, he was very humorous.” (Buckley lost that race to John Lindsay, pulling 13 percent of the vote.)

Previous studies in the literature emphasise modal and blues content within the album, overlooking the creative principle that underpins Kind of Blue – repetition and variation. Davis composed his album by Signifyin(g), transforming and recombining musical items of interest adopted from recent recordings of the period. This thesis employs an interdisciplinary framework that combines note-based observations with intertextual theory.

  • ACLU BLC, Orlando June 12, 2011

    ACLU BLC, Orlando June 12, 2011

    ACLU BLC, Orlando June 12, 2011 “Taking Liberties: The ACLU and the War on Terror” During the first week of September 2001, the ACLU got a new Executive Director for the first time in over 20 years. Anthony Romero began work in our current building at 125 Broad Street in downtown Manhattan, a building the ACLU had been occupying for only a few years, having moved down from the Roger Baldwin building on West 43rd Street, in midtown Manhattan, in 1997. During the second week of that month, I don’t need to tell you that downtown Manhattan was devastated, New York City changed, the country changed, and the world changed. And so the ACLU staff, including our new ED, faced all sorts of challenges in adapting to living and working in this new, uncomfortable physical and psychological environment: how do you meet the payroll when everything you need is locked into a building you’re not allowed to enter, and how do you answer a swarm of press inquiries when, in those pre-iPhone days, the computers and telephone systems were inaccessible? One of Anthony’s first tasks was to arrange psychological counseling for some staff members who were traumatized by being so close to the World Trade Center on 9/11 and afterwards. And the entire organization faced the equally daunting challenge of evaluating and responding to the government’s responses to 9/11. By the end of October, less than six weeks after the events of 9/11, Congress had enacted the USA PATRIOT Act which, I will remind you, was an acronym, standing for Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools for Intercepting and Obstructing Terrorism.

    Charlie Mariano and the Birth of Boston Bop

    Charlie Mariano and the Birth of Boston Bop By Richard Vacca The tributes to alto saxophonist Charlie Mariano that have appeared since his death on June 16, 2009 have called him an explorer, an innovator, and a musical adventurer. The expatriot Mariano was all of those things—a champion of world music before anyone thought to call it that. Mariano was known for the years he spent crisscrossing Europe and Asia, but his musical career began in Boston, the city where he was born. In the years between 1945 and 1953, he was already an explorer and innovator, but his most important role was as a leader and catalyst. He helped build the founda- tion of modern jazz in Boston on three fronts: as soloist in the Nat Pierce Orchestra of the late 1940s, as a bandleader cutting the records that introduced Boston’s modern jazz talent to a wider world in the early 1950s, and as the founder of the original Jazz Workshop in 1953. Born in 1923, Mariano grew up in Boston’s Hyde Park district in a house filled with music. His father loved opera, his sister played piano, and starting in his late teens, Charlie himself played the alto saxo- phone, the instrument for which he was best known throughout his life. By 1942, Mariano was already making the rounds on Boston’s buckets of blood circuit. The following year he was drafted. It was Mariano’s good fortune to spend his two years in service playing in an Army Air Corps band, and while stationed in California, he heard Charlie Parker for the first time.
