  • A Brief Education on Indigenous History
    Phillipe & Jorge’s Cool, Cool World: Stuff of Legends: A brief education on Indigenous history Me Tarzan A local athlete you might not have heard of (outside his community) is Ellison Brown, born on the Narragansett Reservation in 1914. A mind-boggling distance runner, Brown was known publicly as “Tarzan,” although members of the tribe called him “Deerfoot.” Tarzan won the 1936 and 1939 Boston Marathons, and was on the historic 1936 US Olympic team that competed in Berlin, but was unable to race due to an injury. But to his credit, reports were that injury didn’t keep him from getting into a fight with some of Adolf Hitler’s Nazis at a local beer garden. A stonemason and shellfisherman, Brown ran distance races barefoot, and if you’re an avowed masochist, try that on for size. He would also disappear into the South County woods for days at a time, getting back to nature in his own way. He overcame a great deal of racism, and according to reports, once said he had to get his hair cut in New London because the barber in Westerly wouldn’t do it. Tarzan Brown has long been a legend in South County and deservedly so. And his duel with the Boston running star John Kelley in the 1936 Marathon, which Tarzan won, led to the christening of “Heartbreak Hill” toward the end of the 26+ miles.

    FILM AT REDCAT PRESENTS Mon Sept 27 | 8:30 pm Jack H. Skirball Series $9 [students $7, CalArts $5] THE BEST OF OTTAWA 2009 This selection of 12 outstanding films from the Ottawa International Animation Festival 2009, most of which are Los Angeles premieres, reflects the vitality of experimental animation today and includes work from Canada, England, Estonia, France, Germany, Poland, and the United States. Each filmmaker demonstrates a passion for telling stories, whether abstract or figurative, and the works showcase the rich possibilities of animation as personal art. Films include Eric Dyer’s mesmerizing The Bellow’s March, Diego Maclean’s haunting The Art of Drowning, and David OReilly’s sci-fi drama Please Say Something, as well as works by Jake Armstrong, Bastien Dubois, Julian Grey, Rao Heidmets, Stephen Irwin, Gary Leib, Ian Miller, Marv Newland, and Michal Socha. Two new films by American animators who continue to delight, disturb, and enlighten— Myth Labs by Martha Colburn and Presentation Theme by Jim Trainor—will also be screened. In person: Suzan Pitt, Ottawa International Animation Festival jury member “Martha Colburn’s animations charge the frame with such ferocity that it almost hurts to watch… Tacitly these unconscious imaginings give rise to strikingly clear associations, which is why the work is so illuminating—not just for its ideational and aesthetic lushness but for its approach.” – Dena Beard, Berkeley Art museum/Pacific Film Archive Program (TRT 81 min.)

On January 14, 2010, EFF filed comments with the Commission that, among other things, expressed the view that the Open Internet rules proposed by the NPRM should not treat copyright enforcement or any other ISP efforts to block, interfere, or discriminate based on the content of speech as “reasonable network management.”1 As we stated in those comments: Because the proposed regulations by their terms do not protect “unlawful content,” there is no need for an exception to permit ISPs to block such content. Any copyright enforcement exception to the six principles simply serves to excuse ISPs from using undisclosed, overbroad techniques that interfere with lawful activities, as long as they claim they were attempting to restrict unlawful ones. This “copyright loophole” has profound implications for the free speech rights of Internet users and cannot be reconciled with the stated purposes of the NPRM.2 1 See Comments of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, FCC GN Docket No. 09-191 (filed Jan. 14, 2010) (available at http://www.eff.org/files/filenode/nn/EFFNNcomments.pdf). 2 Id. at 11. 1 Contemporaneously, EFF invited members of the public to sign a petition to signify that they share these concerns.3 More than 7,071 individuals joined the petition, representing residents of every one of the 50 states.
