  • Gingrich-Jones, Candace (B
    Gingrich-Jones, Candace (b. 1966) by Linda Rapp Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2007 glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com The half-sister of former Speaker of the United States House of Representatives Newt Gingrich, whose record on glbtq rights is abysmal, Candace Gingrich-Jones is an out and proud lesbian activist who serves as a spokesperson and Senior Youth Outreach Manager for the Human Rights Campaign. Candace Gingrich-Jones is separated from her brother by twenty-three years in age and most of the breadth of the American political spectrum in philosophy. By the time of her birth, her brother was already gone from the parental home--married (to his former high school geometry teacher), a father, and living in Georgia. In 1942 Kathleen Daugherty and Newton C. McPherson, Jr.--both in their teens--were wed. The unhappy union lasted only a few months but produced a child, Newton Leroy. Two years after the divorce, Daugherty married Robert Gingrich, who adopted her son and gave him his family name. Newt Gingrich has chosen to pronounce it with a final "ch" sound (to avoid having to correct constituents), whereas the rest of the family uses a "k" sound that is closer to the authentic pronunciation of the German name. A career Army officer, Robert Gingrich took his growing family with him to postings in the United States and Europe. Daughters Susan and Roberta were born in 1948 and 1950, respectively. The baby of the family, Candace, came along much later, on June 2, 1966. Shortly after Candace's birth, her father was deployed to Vietnam.

Music Copyright in Theory and Practice: An Improved Approach for Determining Substantial Similarity Stephanie J. Jones* INTRODUCTION Of the three elements necessary to prove copyright infringe- ment-copyright ownership, access, and substantial similar- ityl-the last is not only the most important component, but also the most difficult to define and apply. Copyright ownership is a statutory formality easily satisfied prior to the institution of litiga- tion.2 Access is a straightforward proof question that can be dis- posed of by a showing of striking similarity.' However, no copy- right action can succeed without a showing of substantial similarity, making the concept the theoretical and practical corner- stone of copyright litigation. Unfortunately, substantial similarity is impossible to define, and nearly as onerous to apply. The substantial similarity standard is particularly difficult to de- fine and implement in the litigation of music copyright actions. Despite numerous attempts, the federal courts have failed to for- mulate a fully utilitarian framework for determining musical sub- stantial similarity.

Rainbow Warrior is Baker’s passionate personal chronicle, from a repressive childhood in 1950s Kansas, to a harrowing stint in the US Army, and finally his arrival in San Francisco, where he bloomed as both a visual artist and social justice activist. His fascinating story weaves through the early years of the struggle for LGBTQ rights, when he Chicago Review Press worked closely with Milk, Cleve Jones, and the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.
