Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street, SW Washington, DC 20554 Re: WC Docket No. 12-375 Comments re Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking Dear Ms. Dortch, Attached, you will find a list of 20,286 people that have signed a Change.org petition in support of prison phone reform. These supporters believe that recent FCC action to reduce the cost of prison phone calls was a crucial first step towards affordable access for our nation’s inmates, but that meaningful reform cannot be achieved without addressing sheriffs’ commissions. Across the country, sheriffs’ departments exploit loopholes that generate hundreds of millions of dollars in commissions, ultimately taking money from people that can least afford this added cost. Study after study demonstrates that the easier time inmates have remaining connected with the outside world, the greater chance they have of successfully reintegrating into society once they are released. Instead of contributing to this important goal, sheriffs’ departments continue to receive commissions for providing telecommunications services to inmates. They even went so far as to threaten to eliminate this vital service if their commissions are cut. This claim only serves to underscore the need to act. Given the outpouring of public support shown by this Change.org petition, it is clear that the public is tired of an outdated commissions system. The FCC has a clear mandate to act, and should move to eliminate commissions as soon as possible. Sincerely, Robert Raben Executive Director, The Silent Sentence Coalition Petition Text While you pay a relatively fair market price for phone calls, the 1.57 million inmates across the U.S. -

UMI films the text directly from the original or copy submitted. Thus, some thesis and dissertation copies are in typewriter face, while others may be from any type of computer printer. The quality of this reproduction is dependent upon the quality of the copy submitted. Broken or indistinct print, colored or poor quality illustrations and photographs, print bleedthrough, substandard margins, and improper alignment can adversely affect reproduction. In the unlikely event that the author did not send UMI a complete manuscript and there are missing pages, these will be noted. Also, if unauthorized copyright material had to be removed, a note will indicate the deletion. Oversize materials (e.g., maps, drawings, charts) are re produced by sectioning the original, beginning at the upper left-hand corner and continuing from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. Each original is also photographed in one exposure and is included in reduced form at the back of the book. -

Biographical Dictionary of Kansas Artists (Active Before 1945)
Biographical Dictionary of Kansas Artists (active before 1945) Compiled by Susan V. Craig, Art & Architecture Librarian Univ. of Kansas August 2006 1 This book began with a 1981 reference question about John Noble, a name I did not recognize despite having studied art history and worked as an art librarian for more than 10 years. Learning that John Noble was a Kansas artist, I went looking for the best available book on Kansas art only to learn the resources were few. As a new faculty member at the Univ. of Kansas, I needed to establish a research project so I decided to prepare a dictionary of Kansas artists thus fulfilling both the research requirement and educating myself about the history of the visual arts in my native state; I just didn't intend the project to take 25 years or realize that I would have more than 1750 entries in the dictionary. I began by defining the scope of the work: • "Kansas artist" was loosely defined as artists who were both born in the state as well as artists who were born elsewhere but were artistically active in Kansas. Under this latter definition, I included artists who produced significant artworks such as the murals installed in Kansas post offices. Occasionally, artists who lived or worked primarily in Kansas City, MO may be included. I did not deliberately include all Kansas City artists but neither did I exclude them if the name came from a Kansas source such as the Kansas State Gazetteer. • Another choice I made was to look for artists who were artistically active before 1945. -
