  • THE CONSTITUTIONAL IRRELEVANCE of ART, Brian Soucek
    99 N.C. L. REV. 685 (2021) THE CONSTITUTIONAL IRRELEVANCE OF ART* BRIAN SOUCEK** In Masterpiece Cakeshop, the baker’s lead argument to the Supreme Court was that his cakes were artworks, so antidiscrimination laws could not apply. Across the country, vendors who refuse to provide services for same-sex weddings continue making similar arguments on behalf of their floral arrangements, videos, calligraphy, and graphic design, and the Supreme Court will again be asked to consider their claims. But arguments like these—what we might call “artistic exemption claims,” akin to the religious exemptions so much more widely discussed—are actually made throughout the law, not just in public accommodations cases like Masterpiece Cakeshop. In areas ranging from tax and tort, employment and contracting discrimination, to trademark, land use, and criminal law, litigants argue that otherwise generally applicable laws simply do not apply to artists or their artworks. This Article collects these artistic exemption claims together for the first time in order to examine what determines their occasional success—and to ask when and whether they should succeed. The surprising answer is that claims of the form “x is protected because it is art” should never succeed. The category “art” is constitutionally irrelevant. Contrary to widespread assertion among scholars and advocates, a work’s status as art has never done any work in the Supreme Court’s First Amendment case law. * © 2021 Brian Soucek. ** Professor of Law and Chancellor’s Fellow, University of California, Davis School of Law. To tackle a topic this broad is to rely on a wide circle of experts and friends.

  • Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Magazine Pdf Free Download
    Sports illustrated swimsuit magazine pdf free download Continue The most beautiful models in the world, hundreds of bikinis, and private tropical places, what can go wrong? More than you think, says make-up artist Tracy Murphy, who has been working on the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition for 11 years. Something has always happened, says Murphy, who now carries everything from lip balm to Pepto-Bismol (we don't want to know). We talked to her about her must-have groceries on set and were surprised to learn that it's not always holiday-welcome news for the rest of us, mortals headed to the beach next weekend. They get tanned: Murphy slathers models in the highest SPF there, but it's still happening. If someone gets too red and has a sunburn, you should cover it with makeup, says Murphy. She loves the Koh Gen Do Maifanshi Moisture Foundation for its lined-up reach and compelling hues. They don't sleep in: Models arrive on set at 2 a.m., and Murphy covers them in Johnson's Baby Oil Gel. It's incredibly moisturizing and super-ish, she says. Then they sit in hair and makeup gowns and start shooting at dawn (when the light is beautiful). They sweat: Murphy holds the M.A.C. Prep and Prime Translucent Finishing Powder to control the oil around his lips and chin. It can go from sexy and wet to greasy and sloppy looking quickly, she says. They don't have perfect skin: Because of the frequent flyer models, they often come with dry skin and acne.

TV Land takes an entertaining and light-hearted look at what it means to be part of the grooviest generation in history when it presents Generation Boom , a four-part original special premiering on Tuesday, September 26 at 10 p.m. ET/PT . Narrated by Emmy Award-winning actor Kelsey Grammer (Frasier , Cheers ), each one-hour installment focuses on a central topic including how boomers play, live, love and wire the world. Airing over the course of four nights, Generation Boom is executive produced by Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato and is produced exclusively for TV Land by World of Wonder. “Viewing the impact of Baby Boomers through the years is truly remarkable,” states Larry W. Jones, President, TV Land. “ Generation Boom shows just what a force this generation is to be reckoned with. Right away, boomers demanded more – beginning with the amount of diapers they needed. They have always insisted that the world conform to their needs and we are fully-prepared to get in line and do just that -- superserve the needs of the TV generation.” These one-hour specials -- airing over the course of four nights -- take an entertaining, fun and thorough look at the boomer generation.
