YELLOW CAB OWNERS LOSING THEIR MEDALLIONS VALUE:  I adressed an angle of this controversy in a piece I wrote on an experience with a young UBER driver. I had written about UBER before. I am not a fan. I support 'local.' The Cab industry execs covered their backsides by funding and rolling out fleets facilitating the UBER disruption. The medallion owner loss? More than money. Loss of faith & trust. I would expect some attorney will try to cash in with a class action suit netting money for the lawyer not for the 'class.' I would hope some lawyer who does diligence will find a consortium, state to state, to move forward on individuals data sharing OFF LINE (as everything is read) to take on the disruptors and bosses that chose to join without disclosing to their membership their backsides were exposed, Sincerely, Carrie Devorah, Founder, www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com (search UBER, search GOOGLE, search ICANN et al)

The SEC ALJ Courts ARE unconstitutional but not from the perspective being produced by attorneys defending Wall Street'rs accused of crimes.

The Wall Street, curiously, o-n-l-y S.R.O. self- regulatory agency and the S.E.C. have tracked criminals away from law enforcement, not reporting Wall Street'r crimes to cops on any level.

There is one law only, or supposed to be, except when it comes to Wall Street'rs. You or I or even the attorney defending the Wall Street criminal break a law we go to jail pleading 'guilty or not guilty' while the Wall Street'rs crime is not reported to cops because Investment Client complainants have been pulled, for decades, away from cops by attorneys misdirecting the investment clients in to the S.R.O. D.R.S. which Congress only ever gave oversight of issues between its dues paying business league members, which means the S.R.O and the attorneys pulling investment clients in to the S.R.O. D.R.S. are accessories to crimes.

How the S.R.O. and the business league for Securities Lawyers pull off this scam to cover up Wall Street crimes is to have the trusting Investment Client sign a 'submission agreement' for use only by the dues paying league's members- securities brokers and securities broker dealers. The Investment Client, not knowing they have been defrauded in to signing the submission agreement that Congress never gave the S.R.O. or the S.E.C. to provide to Investment Clients then tells the Investment Client that once that submission has been signed, there is nothing the Investment Client can do.

The S.R.O. and the S.E.C. knowingly pull Investment Advisors in to the S.R.O. D.R.S. for coverup, full knowing, again, that Congress did not give either the Commission or the S.R.O. oversight of Investment Advisors.

The S.R.O. then, without reporting criminal activity of the S.R.O. dues paying members, does not report the crimes to cops. The crimes not reported to cops, hence, are not reported on t he S.R.O. dues paying members' CRD or IARD or on the SEC IADP. The crimes are not reported on the SEC IADP because the SEC is accepting tainted data from the S.R.O. knowing that data is incomplete, self reported by the criminal or Defendant and expunged even without going through the required S.R.O. expungement hearings or Civil Court review.

The S.R.O. further keeps crimes from cops by having peers of the criminals adjudicate the punishments. These S.R.O. security committee and enforcement committee, while using the terms security and enforcement, are not law enforcement.

Typical rulings or decisions from these committees are to 'discipline' or 'bar' or 'fine' the dues paying member, who, is pleading 'without admitting or denying.'

So you see by keeping crimes from cops the SEC and the S.R.O. are complicit in crimes and coverups, moreso are denying the victim their day in court.

There is so much more I can write on this topic, with authority, and do, the fact is, textbook (and take this to the bank), Madoff told the truth when Madoff said "they knew." "They" did, 1963. Fifty years before Madoff turned himself in, Bernie was disciplined for selling "No Product."

Bernie told the truth, as I write often, and have provided to legislators, local and other and law enforcement, in the course of my piercing the veil of fraud of FINRA, which is the NASD, just with a name change.

The FINRA, the NASD, is a cartel, a cartel that is running nervous as they are exposed. Things do have a way of catching up with, people and cartels.

The next time a securities lawyer wants to pull you in to the FINRA forum away from the courts make sure you get his bar number and report him to the local bar association. Investment Clients go to court not to FINRA/NASD.

Who did not see this one coming and that Trump's golf courses, clubhouses suited up to look like the West Wing, will become Trumps CAMP DAVID.....

Oh, for your White House/ Capitol Hill detail loving people, what you are seeing with the Mitt and THE DONALD campaign rhetoric is typical DC.

I covered the WH and the Hill for about a decade with red carpets in between.

You witness excoriating hearings where the legislators carve each others guts out with words of hate, then see them a couple of hours later, arm in hand, at a candlelighting or gala arm in arm, drinking wine together, laughing as best of friends which they often are with all the time they spend together.

Welcome to Politics 101 from someone who was on the inside for almost a decade. Politics is the original "PUNKED."
ps
The ultimate PUNKED is how Trump just gave media the shaft. If your editors ask, I will explain
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The DOL rule is brought about by the fraudulent financial consultants that FINRA keeps active in industry under the FINRA 'without admitting or denying.' Put the criminals who are recidivous, most often, in jail alongside the felons who paid their time. Then the good financial consultants will have the light that is on them turned down.

Let us be honest, Maryland legislators have kept FINRA alive, legislators like Elizabeth Warren have kept the same problems going for decades.

It is time for the good financial consultants to be able to do their work with out the stain of the bad ones to deal with.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is where accountability begins.

Comey did not cost anyone an election. Comey did not make anyone win an election.

People did things they are accountable for. HAD anyone who did something wrong come forward and admit to it, there would have been less of a lashback than came from denying what was done or blaming other people (including Russians.)

Its Mommyism 101- you are always going to get caught, Mommyism 102- you will get in less trouble if you tell me the truth.

Enough said..... when a finger points is pointed at someone else, three fingers still point back at you.

Why things cant change? Trump team is "ofer" heavy (oh-fers, a DC term for Old F-rts still hanging around trying to be relevant) .

Besides Silicon Valley West set up during "O" inside the WH and in Blair's Administration and others around the world

A former Bank of America Merrill Lynch broker stole more than $1 million from two clients while working at a Chicago branch, according to a criminal complaint filed by the U.S. attorney last week.
Between October 2010 to October 2013, the former broker, Alec Rivera, siphoned $1,065,381 from client accounts through unauthorized wire transfers, according to the complaint, which was filed in U.S. District Court in the Northern District of Illinois on October 5. Rivera is charged with one count of wire fraud.
Rivera, who began his career at Merrill in 2008, allegedly transferred funds from the clients to local Chamber of Commerce accounts held at BMO Harris Bank and Pacific Global bank. Rivera, who was treasurer for the Chamber, then wired money from the Chamber’s accounts into his personal accounts. He used descriptions such as “IRS Attorney Payment” to hide the transfers, according to the complaint.
RBC & FINRA were aware a JP Morgan employee that used to work at RBC had been wiring funds out of client accounts for 10+ years, rewriting client statements to cover up the crime co-operative with current RBC employees. Clients were silenced with FINRA arbitrations that Congress did not give FINRA oversight to take investment clients in to. FINRA during this time knew the SEC was engaging a multi state nationwide investigation in to RBC over the actions of the RBC CA's and RRs  http://www.dbo.ca.gov/ENF/pdf/2013/RBCCapMrkt_ConsentOrder.pdf​

 Laughing, Steveswimmer1, my exact sentiment, AND they get awarded KRONERS when I feel the dough they should be treated to is the Shoppers Market COLOSSAL Krueller. What bunk when real journos dig docs 'scholars' read and feed off of then crunch in to their white papers. IF these winners were influential to benefit society this economy would not be where it is today. 
 
Sign me up as a Nobel price considerate. I found the docs that confirm what these chaps should have known and written about 50 years before Madoff turned himself in to law enforcement that Wall Street knew about Madoff's crimes, that Wall Street worked with a private lawyers group to create a ruse under which criminal intent, including CEO intent, was covered up and hidden from cops benefiting the private prison industry the Kroner Klan captured Nobel attention on.....

Today is 0 days left to the IANA control going to Switzerland under control of Clinton/Gore and their cronies who seeded it back in 1998- Cerf, Dyson, Sun Microsystems  & Venture Capitalist KPCB Kleiner Perkins Caufield Byer who seeded Newco the CHARITY they set up now called ICANN which means all those millions heading to trillions paid for registries to roll out Domain Names are trillions made off of DARPA technology academics working for the USG began selling commercially long before they had legal permission. KPCB seeds include Facebook, Uber, Google, Alphabet Holdings involved in Pokemongo- all entities gathering data on individuals lives- info used to 'flip' persons, so to speak. Agenda began in 1920 with scientist Herman Sorgel at time League of Nations was formed. Docs online at www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com search Dyson. Clinton, Gore. Cerf, Powell, ICANN. IANA and for an FYI on Wall Street search Madoff
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The frequency of these thefts is beginning to make one scratch their head as to why the USG hasnt figured out academics and Scientists take intel, routinely, it is beginning to seem, to "leak" or disseminate the info for profit or 15 minutes of fame. 
 
Heck, it isnt even new. Pollard walked out with briefcase after briefcase after briefcase of intel before rendevousing at Dumbarton with his spy handler. And that was decades ago. 
 
The IANA technology that KPCB seed ICANN said to Congress in 1999 would generate trillions of dollars just not for the taxpayer whose monies paid the research labs like SRI Stanford research Institute scientists to work on yet.... Google was government intel that grad students got to work on, as did academics at UCLA, USC, in the EU etc. 
 
One can presume by now that Government employee is a lead to data that can turn a zero in to a billion dollar VC backed unicorn hero that Wall Street takes public.... 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Of course Congress knew about JP Morgan, RBC, WIS, Prudential, FINRA and SEC blind eye to Wall Street crimes.... I told them.

I am a Whistleblower. I was just an investment client. But then I became Public Investor 12-03894, behind Bills HR 1098 and 1090, as early as 2013, to Congress, as early as 2010 to the SEC, documented.

I even told Congress both sides of the aisles why Madoffs dont go to jail and the felons I gave Terry McCauliffe his needed insight on why felons have paid their time and deserve to vote. After all, Madoff walked around 50 years after his first discipline.

Do staffers communicate to Legislators? It appears not.  That said, with all the lawyers in Congress and advocating for felons you thing they would have connected the dots by now instead of, like Ed Royce, saying, 'but Harry Markopolous said..."

Markopolous got it wrong. Documented 1963.

Guess facts from FINRA whistleblowers isnt as sexy as putting the cartel behind the real criminals in jail- local, state or federal.

I would guess that knowing of crimes and not reporting to police can make regulators and government employees accountable as "accesories after the fact...."?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And Bill Clinton and Al Gore set up ICANN (seeded by KPCB, Sun Microsystems, Vint Cerf) as a charity in 1998 that all the registry millions $$$$ payments for .screw, .xxx, your name, etc are "donations". KPCB current partners include former Vice President Al Gore and General Colin Powell. KPCB other seeded companies include Google, Facebook, Uber, Amazon, etc. [ www.kpcb.com ] 
 
Killed my former industry.... ARTS Content creation

FINRA is a dues collecting 501(c)(6), a BUSINESS league, neither a neutral forum for investors to be deceived in to entering for justice resolution of FINRA dues paying members securities or other frauds including but not limited to ID theft, adopting client accounts after the client is closed by the client, conversion, entering client accounts to change data, routinely.

FINRA has no enforcement authority. FINRA is not the cops. FINRA is by definition an accessory after the fact.

FINRA GC Terri Reicher emailed a confirming statement of FINRA not being a neutral forum when Reicher emailed that FINRA has something to hold against FINRA dues paying members and nothing to hold against investors misled in to FINRA DRS by PIABA and other FINRA accepted attorneys, too often practicing law for payment in states/countries that lawyer is not licensed in making those lawyers engaged in crimes, too, potentially once determined.

FINRA has claimed FOIA protection towards building up FINRAs illusion of being a quasi government agency. Quasi is questionable in that one cannot be a little bit pregnant nor can one be a quasi government agency.

BTW, FINRA states on the FINRA website that all customer complaints go to court not FINRA. Congress has continued to deny FINRA oversight of investment clients so on that note alone, if the clients in questioned sued the advisor in FINRA then........ love to get my hands on those documents to see if FINRA had those investors sign the FINRA broker/brokerage agreement instead of..... smile. Got to go to www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com and search FINRA, etc
Lets keep this conversation in perspective both from the POV of the McCauliffe conversation and from the POV of the Felon conversation.

1- McCauliffe was trounced by Judicial Watch on the issue of Felons rights to vote post serving time
2- McCauliffe was emboldened to give the right to vote to felons who served their time

Something happened in between 1 + 2. That something is me. You wont read that in what McCauliffe's office is putting out.

I am Carrie Devorah the investor behind Bill HR 1098, the Investor Choice Act of 2015. What I brought to Congress is documents confirming Bernard Madoff told the truth when Madoff said "they knew." "They" did, 1963, fifty years before Madoff turned himself in.

What I brought, knowledge wise to McCauliffe's wonks and the State of Virginia how there is one law but two sets of how the law for crimes, the law that determines felons is not the law that is applied to Wall Street crimes, that Madoff was disciplined while you and I go to jail.

We become felons. We lose our right to vote. We lose civil rights and freedoms. Eric Garner died. Freddie Gray died because law enforcement knew where to find them after the first time they were arrested, orced to go to jail, fingerprinted, handcuffed, labelled felons, forced to become recidivous unattractive to be hired, while Madoff walked the streets 50 years, recidivous, able to vote.

It is as simple as that. McCauliffe's policy wonk, said 'they never thought of that.' They had not. I have and have been on the record for this fact why men and women who served their time should be returned their Right To Vote.

Disappointing when career politicians fail to attribute. Unexpected? Not. Thank you social media for giving credit where due. Put Wall Street criminals in jail or let the felons vote. Simple.

Working on that.....
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am sorry to announce the deal is done. I have been writing about this and providing documents and screengrabs for almost three years. I highly recommend you visit my site, www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com  I took ICANN on head on once I grasped what they are up to. A few weeks ago the ICANN/VINT CERF testimony in the E&C Committee archive pre 2001 was scrubbed. A few days ago traffic on my site dropped 90%. The way I went about challenging ICANN was public. First I told Steve Crocker I would ask him a few questions. And then I did. Publicly. Continuing to expose the scam the Clintons led by Al Gore perpetrated back in 1998 giving NEWCO control of the DARPA IANA function. I could tell you more. Go look for yourself at my site. Search ICANN, IANA, Cerf, Clinton, Gore, Podesta, Magaziner, UN, etc. And then look back at the E&C committee of 1998 and see all those legislators who say today they have no idea what is going on, voted on it. What is going on? The academics saw dollar signs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The assumption is all criminals go to jail. They do not. 
Chief Lanier knows. 
 
In & around 2014, I asked Lanier what she knew about FINRA. Lanier never heard of it.  
 
Lanier should have. FINRA was headquartered in DC. In the least, FINRA still maintains suites here in DC along with other functions of its 501 (c)(6) business league. 
 
Lanier and her "financial team" were provided documentation of how FINRA keeps criminals out of jail, able to vote, strutting streets in Manolos and Guccis, while the little guy, the you and me, would be sent up the river, come out felons, unable to vote, unable to get our crimes erased.  
 
FINRA term? "Expunged." 
 
Let me explain, the FINRA is the former NASD. To be more correct, the FINRA is still the NASD except that is not what the public is told. Shhhhh. 
 
Lanier (Superior Respondeat which means that everything given to Lanier's financial crimes unit was given to Lanier too) was given documentation on current financial crimes in the District the FINRA and the SEC were pursuing, past crimes, including Madoffs. 
 
There was no misunderstanding information given to Lanier made it 200% clear Madoff told the truth when Madoff said, "They knew." "They" did. 50 years ago, 1963, the NASD, the "former" FINRA "disciplined" Bernard for selling "No Product", fined Bernard $500 for financial fraud, camouflaged in a set up complete with an "Enforcement" and "Adjudicatory" Counsel. 
 
Enforcement? Isnt that something cops like Lanier is supposed to do? Just asking.... 
 
Well, Lanier did nothing. The victim numbers continue to mount. Lanier may be leaving but this reality wont nor will it go away from public record that Lanier had a chance to put financial white collar (largely white) criminals and their conspirators behind bars and did not, instead, Lanier focusing her efforts on low level criminals, people President Obama is commuting sentences on, people who paid their time.

PAM BONDI 
I am not impressed that Trump gave to PAM BONDI, more correctly, I am concerned. 
 
Let me explain, PAM BONDI is the AG in Florida. Florida is where FINRA the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority keeps the FINRA case managers. FINRA is the alleged remanifestation of the former NASD, National Association of Securities Dealers, except, the NASD did not go away as reported to the investor public in 2007. 
 
The FINRA is 100% owned by the NASD Holding Company. 
 
The FINRA is an SRO. Congress allowed in the 1933//4 Acts for SROs, self regulatory organizations, to be established to adress issues between securities brokers and brokerages. Let me repeat SECURITIES Brokers and Brokerages, NOT Investment Advisors, NOT Investment Clients. Let me repeat NOT INVESTMENT CLIENTS. 
 
Yet, daily, around the country, around the world, Investment Clients are pulled in to FINRA DRS, misled in to signing Broker Agreements for the Forum, misled receiving Broker Award papers that give the Broker/Brokerage the opportunity to not pay the judgment against them. 
 
FINRA fails to advise investment clients the forum the investment client is directed in to by Securities Lawyers able to practice law in the DRS not reported for not being compliant to local license & rules.  
 
How this relates to Pam Bondi is that Bondi was provided documents confirming that FINRA case managers were fielding from around the country investment clients complaints drawn in to the FINRA BOCA OFFICES, despite FINRA having no legal authority to handle customer complaints. The FINRA website states INVESTMENT CLIENTS matters belong in the Courts. Moreso, FINRA is a 501(c)(6)business league collecting dues from its Members. FINRA members are the people harmed investors sue. 
 
BAD Mr. Trump....

WHat is the eyebrow raising all about? 
 
a- the IRS approves the charities that ALL must submit a detailed description of their mission statement of. There is a balance and check at the get go that IF the non-profit violates is actionable 
 
b- since 2013 I began reporting on the relationships of the Clinton Oval office, the Clinton CHAI and the internet corporation that Gore & Clinton wrote in to existence as a charity back in 1998, giving 100% control of DARPA military technology to Vint Cerf, Dyson, Sun Microsystems (Erich Schmid), Venture Capitalist KPCB's NEWCO now known as ICANN. ICANN is controlling the Military technology called IANA (Internet naming function that converts the warm and fuzzy names we give our website in to the numbers that computers "speak" amongst each other with). 
 
100% control and to a "charity" that was designed to NOT KEEP MORE MONEY THAN IT NEEDED. 
 
Understand this, EVERY registry, entity that controls a GTLD, a .taylor, .XXX, .suckers, is writing millions of dollars checks as charitable donations to the NEWCO/ICANN that Gore/Clinton signed in to law 1998. 
 
2015 the sitting CEO of this charity (base salary reported over $600K) announced ICANN was setting up payment collection facilities in foreign countries....  
 
hmmmm 
 
That Al Gore is a partner in the VC along with Colin Powell should raise eyebrows That Ira Magaziner from the Clinton Oval heads CHAI and that they control all our data the internet has taken control of & are giving our data control to ICANN to take to Switzerland 9-30-2016, done deal, is what readers should focus on. 
 
Any wonder why traffic to my website dropped 90% overnight? Screengrabs are posted.

FELON VOTING RIGHTS IS MORE ABOUT WALL STREET CRIMINALS WALK STREETS VOTING WITHOUT BEING JAILED....

The Judicial Watch posturing neglects to focus on the Wall Street- Main Street reality there are rules and procedures that keep criminals out of jail, voting.

I contacted McCauliffe's office after reading the VA Court decision. I explained to McCauliffe's legal policy wonk how the SEC approved S.R.O., self regulatory organization FINRA/NASD, kept Bernard Madoff's crimes away from law enforcement via the Wall Street bubble that circumvents the law you and I are held accountable to.

As I continue to write and expose two 501(c)(6), FINRA and PIABA, dues collecting business leagues as per IRS rules, write the "rules and procedures" that put Eric Garner behind bars 11 times while Madoff walked free and voted for 50 years after Madoff's first "disciplinary action". I found 5+.  

I posted the documents I found that confirm Madoff statement "THEY KNEW." "They" did, 1963.

Read for yourself. Look at the men and women who served time barred from voting because their low level drug crime brands them a felon, for life.

Every day men and women like Madoff are wrist slapped in a forum the 501(c)(6) created, in which Madoffs' plead "without admitting or denying."

You plead guilty or not guilty." Your crimes would be public in court records. The Madoffs crimes are hidden under a false claim of FOIA protection further more hidden because the private business league forum requires investment clients to sign Confidentiality agreements, plus.

View my site. Search FINRA, SEC, Madoff, expunge, Eric Garner....       

( http://www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com/congress-created-madoff.html ). See for yourself.... 1963. Madoff told the truth. Then they, WALL STREET, the business league the NASD/FINRA, the 501(c)(6) promoted him...

Now you decide- should you lose your Civil Right? Dont delude yourself this is a Trump v Clinton win. The only conversation is would you, too, fight for your civil right after you paid your time.

The money movement is what I continue to write on- please note the companies are US companies with overseas offices. To understand why the site crash is symptomatic of what is going on behind the scenes, go to my site, www;centerforcopyrightintegrity.com search Vint Cerf, Al Gore, Colin Powell, Bill Clinton, Steve Crocker, Jon Postel, Swift, KPCB, ICANN, IANA. Please note the US version of putting government on line was 'hacked'/crashed. It is about data gathering, dark money, and the UN business league having this data. Any questions, email me. I will direct you where to look. If you really believe the Russians hacked the DNC, I have a bridge in Brooklyn to seel you. Because, read this and repeat, nothing online goes on without ICANN and the IANA function that Clinton/Gore gave to their VC friends who figured out, like IBM did decades prior, the USG Military intel was worth well, look at the chart above

I am mused by Ms. Collins op-ed in light of the teapot calling the kettle, hmmmm, a.... fine kettle of fish Ms. Collins and other legislators both sides of the aisle created.

I recently attended a NASAA conference here in DC. NASAA is the National Association of Securities Administrators Association, a charity, 501 (c)(3) to which, bizarrely, all the nation's (and some international) Securities Administrations administrators belong. Some of the Securities Administrators are appointed.

I took time before penning a piece to confirm two questions with Congress, the answers to which are (i) No Congress does not set up private business (ii) NASAA is a .org the State agencies voluntarily belong to.

Mission statement of the NASAA is "investor protection" by telling the States' Securities administrators what Congress wants them to know.

The keynote speaker was Senator Collins. She shared she is the only legislator who worked as a Registered Rep. She was there to promote an NASAA bill.

There is always more to the story (www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com) But what part of Investor harm was Collins & her staff not seeing? I lost my respect for Collins after learning more about the NASAA failure to protect investors.

Commenting on Trump is a look in the mirror moment for Collins and both sides of the aisle. Legislators who themselves did not serve or their children serve should remember what happens when you throw stones while inside the glass house (forget the ceiling)

It was under RIA Collins Senate watch that Madoff's crimes took place- 1963 - 2009 (search my site). 2009 Madoff turned himself in. Collins did not go.... hmmm, NASAA what gives....
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Neither party is adressing Wall Street. Moreso, O'Malley an abandoned candidate can be held accountable for Wall Street ills. The entity orchestrating Wall Street frauds for decades is located in O'Malleys home state, where it, the FINRA/NASD has operated interstate crimes of misrepresenting the S.R.O.'s role to investors as being the only place investors could go for complaints against the Wall Streeter's that stole life savings.

Best to visit my site, www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com, Search Wall Street, Madoff, FINRA, Eric Garner. The FINRA/NASD is complicit in running Wall Street under its own Rules and Procedures that kept the Madoff on the streets for 50 years.

Yup.

1963. Madoff's first (unexpunged) No Product discipline.

Madoff told the truth. "They" knew.... and I found the documents.

This "one person" is making a difference
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RBCs "connections" are not unknown. RBC's connections are muted, deliberately, operating under the radar of law enforcement.

RBC is a member of FINRA/SIPC. Few ask what that means assuming FINRA/SIPC are a gold standard of care like the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval. FINRA, SIPC, the NASAA, the NASD are the furthest thing from a Mark of Excellence. They should be the mark of Scarlet Lettesr.

FINRA/NASD, SIPC, PIABA are 501(c)(6) business leagues the IRS dictates must collect dues from their business league members, Wall Street'rs. Even stranger is these entities boast their dominance adressing Wall Street complaints, something like 99% FINRA said on their website.

These entities collaborate to steal Investor & Regulatory complaints away public view and memory, away from the judicial system Congress established investor complaints would be funneled through (1940). FINRA/NASD instead force investors like cattle in to a blindfolded system enroute to a 2nd financial slaughter.

In 1933/1934 Congress adressed concerns over errant Securities brokers and brokerages. Congress tried to slap those puppies down. Got to love legislators 'best intentions' but by the time Congress issues a law in to the streets, the con men were long gone on to new product ie. the Investment Advisor. The market crash of 2008 exposed other financial product scams. Bottom line, Congress never gave the S.R.O., self regulatory organizations oversight of Investment Advisors and Investment Clients.

This did not stop Wall Street in covering members crimes up.

RBC had 2 RBC Wealth Managements on the FINRA brokercheck until I made it public that 1 RBC Wealth Management tracked to RBC Capital Markets LLC. The 2nd tracked back to Canada via RBC Private Counsel USA. Now? Gone. But documented.

The RBC MN attorney had written, prior, my accounts were closed in 2010. In 2013, a doc on KIDDS and Caymans appeared in my RBC account. KIDDS, Caymans were not unanticipated by me. I'e been researching ICANN, the backbone of Internet chaos unleashed by Gore and Clinton, 1998. I learned about the UN quarterbacking the world going online; I learned about SWIFT, the 3 decade involvement of Wall Street in Silicon Valley. I understand Wikileaks, Panama Papers, Guccifer et al and RBC.

RBC clients were not individually notified of the CFTC money laundering against RBC, nor about the ARS, the lack of CA and RR oversight by RBC. No Amber Alert ‘this entity is under investigation.’

You see Madoff told the truth. “They” knew. 1963. I found the documents. “They” knew about RBC crimes except what RBC does is not called a crime, it is not reported to law enforcement. The execs are not jailed. The S.R.O. covers the crimes up, as accessories, puts them back on the streets to remain recidivous while you and I go to jail, an injustice to felons.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is not TOO BIG TO FAIL nor TOO BIG TO JAIL, John. All it took was connecting dots post the Barney Frank hearing where you testified on the health of RBC specialists all the while knowing the SEC had begun, 11/2008, a multi state investigation in to RBC for failure to monitor the CAs and RRs. Testifying under oath before an FSC, Financial Services Committee, knowingly withholding pertinent data the legislators needed to evaluate the Investor protection Act you were testifying on is, well, umm, referable. You get my drift. Your testimony you said was on behalf of SIFMA, yet you signed your "Truth In Testimony" as the CEO of RBC Wealth Management, which, in itself was untruthful. A little bit of reading SEC filed quarterlies, one easily sees that RBC Wealth Management is a referred to as a Trademark not a company (at least until 2010 after the RBC FINRA DRS was filed). Oddly, RBC Wealth Management was a trademark both under RBC Capitol Markets LLC and RBC Private Counsel USA that tracked to home office in TO. When that "oddity" was noticed, the RBC Private Counsel USA -RBC Wealth Management 'connection' was removed from the FINRA dues collecting business league brokercheck RBC page. Documented. Just a reminder, John, its never been "too big to jail." Its been about the FINRAs, the SIFMAs, the NASAAs, covering up dots that are now connected. Its about the PIABA sitting on FINRA committees writing Rules and Procedures without disclosure to Investment Clients of the attorney conflict of interest in doing so, moreso, egregious in RBC taking client after client in to the FINRA forum citing pre-dispute arbitration clauses binding the client to go to FINRA when even the FINRA website states Investment Clients and Investment Advisors go to court. Does the word 'collusion' or 'conspiracy' ring a Tomb for you? Intent is easily shown along with the history of "without admitting or denying" that RBC signed on to in the FINRA forum and the "AWCs, acceptance, waiver and consent" the FINRA "enforcement" and "adjudicatory" council gave the RBC to sign. Superior Respondeat as CEO, John, remember. Simplified..... accessory, before, during and after...... documented. Shared. To make my point Idiot Proof, a marketing term- take a gander- Madoff told the truth, "They knew." Just went along with the others...................... http://www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com/congress-created-madoff.html Its not just that the felons went to jail and lost their right to vote, its that felons did not go to jail, stayed out on the street, recidivous, building a cottage industry of Wall Street crimes operating under its own Rules and Procedures that kept them outside of the law others are bound to, keeping them voting and recidivous....

JM- It takes more than writing a letter to make a difference. It takes actually showing up in your legislator's office, field office or DC office, saying hi to staffers nose to nose. Most important, it takes time invested before hand to aggregate, paginate, organize the data, simplified in to points that match themes your legislator adresses.

A simplified overview, an index, yes, it does take time. It does take money, too. It takes, as I learned, a passion.

I am the investor behind Bill HR 1098. In 2013, I brought papers to Congress, in fact, first I crossed the aisle and then I crossed back.

Two bills are in Congress as a result of my effort.
1- Congressman Keith Ellison's Bill HR 1098, the Investor Choice Act of 2015
2- Jeb Hensarling's team Bill H.R.1090 - Retail Investor Protection Act

It takes accepting that once your hard work rolls out that you are not named on the Bill, anywhere, that you dont get credit other than from those party to your journey to that point and past.

It takes fortitude to figure out the system in Congress.

It takes fortitude to not take it personally. Your time for acknowledgement will come, or wont.

Making a difference matters. That said, I do enjoy attending events ie NASAA or meeting FINRA or SEC people and PIABA's too, introducing myself as the "one" person who got the Acts started, without funding, without donations, without salary. The sad reality is that, technically, not only did I lose once from the advisors, the time and funds expended are gone.

I do have bragging rights that my circumstance placed be dead and center to Bernard Madoff stating "They Knew." "They" did. Madoff told the truth. 1963 is the first No Product Madoff was "disciplined" for. $500. I post those screengrabs on my website http://www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com/congress-created-madoff.html

My circumstances and Madoff and reading, daily, Law360's, publication of SEC charges against advisors who do not go to jail, just get fined and/or maybe barred, led me to lead the conversation of "injustice to Main Street and felons."

I have become quite the burr under the saddle of FINRA and the SEC, slowly peeling back (and making public) each and every little secret I uncover- deliberate errors or, get this, lack of laws they conduct business under.

Writing a letter to your Congressman is one thing. Meet them and their staff nose to nose, oh, and keep records. And share them.

Just for your pleasure to read, here is the hyperlink to the "Consumers" groups response to my Bill HR 1098 http://www.citizen.org/documents/letter-FINRA-arbitration-data-request-.pdf

Shhhhhh, lets not tell them what we know and told the world that FINRA is a .org not a .gov with no FOIA protection.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The breakdown of society is further noticed in your article from a POV I would say few have considered, that nothing will ever beat home cooking, home hearth, home and family around for support.

Sad, to acknowledge, but truth filled to note, people will pine away for imperfect plates that will remind them of nurtured comfort tech strips them of

ERIC GARNER died because cops knew where to find him.
 
My pitch to Congress for Bill HR 1098, the Investor Choice Act of 2015 (Keith Ellison, Al Franken D-MN) honored Mr. Garner showing injustice to criminals exposed due to Wall Street violating One Law For All.
 
I told the Financial Services Committee(s) "Think Eric Garner "I cant breathe", think Wolf of Wall Street, think Madoff. Cops knew where to find Garner after Garner's first arrest, being fingerprinted, mug shot taken, incarcerated, becoming a felon, coming out forced to check the box, then becoming recidivous doing what he knew could make a living for his family. Wolf was not caught by police for frauds perpetrated on investment clients, while Madoff? We all saw Madoff play out on TV. Madoff turned himself in because cops were never told of Madoff's crimes started in 1963.
 
Madoff told the truth when Madoff said "they knew". "They" did. 1963, Madoff was disciplined $500 for No Product, then disciplined again and again and again up until 8 months before Madoff turned himself in to law enforcement.
 
Madoff pled "without admitting or denying." Garner could only plead "guilty or not guilty." Madoff was given an AWC, "acceptance, waiver and consent", to sign while Garner was booked over and over until he died because cops called knew where to find Garner.
 
Garner died because the Commission the Congress created failed to follow the Congress' laws. The Congress said create SROs to oversee securities Brokers and Brokerages. The Commission approved one, only ever and then approved the NASD SRO under a new name the FINRA but 100% owned by the former name, the NASD.
 
The SRO does not report crimes to cops. So Eric died
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is not rocket science.

After leaving the UK where I covered local news, racing, Royals and Red Carpets for almost two years, I returned to the US where I covered news at the WH and Capitol Hill. I never could have imagined this would lead  me to be deeply versed in the devolution of my world of Intellectual property, my photos becoming fodder, I could not earn a living from. 10 year game plan, gone.

Being around the Hill, the Judiciary, I lived moments you, the world, sees as sound bytes. One hearing, stung.

The next hearing, me, a snapper, achieved four shoutouts for Artists and Photographers. The rest has become my history of bringing change. My history in the arts as a leading Lifestyle designer, and building a crime lab had me coordinating data in to presentations that went head to head with Google, including clarifying what Google is and what Google is not.

All I wanted was my Royalties. Instead, I became versed in how Parliaments sold themselves, destroying our worlds of privacy. And they are not done yet. Our worst is yet to come, post 9-30-2016 when the US no longer has control of the IANA, that same function that lets terrorist groups create websites, use twitter and reroute via TOR.

I have been quite blunt and focused on what is going on. In the 1970's Vint Cerf and his friend Al Gore joined together on the "internet" agenda to convert telecommunications in to our world today.

In the background has been the UN, misconceived as something other than what the UN is, a business league, a .org that is not registered in the States, at least, as a charity or a non profit. It is a business league, the second coming of the failed League of Nations. The UN treaties countries agree to are non-binding.

That said the US academics working on military projects for DARPA had developed emails as a way for the academics to communicate.

Jon Postel, was the editor of their shared communications called RFC, request for Comments, much the same as used by the multi-stake holders working aggressively to take control of the Internet to Switzerland, announced date, by Vint Cerf, 9-30-2016, right before the US elections.

Pieces of the internet were being developed by others around the world. But the US academics working at Stanford University, were being fed US intel to develop. Which means that students at Stanford had access to the US intel to develop the GOOGLE, for example. Do you really believe a 19 or so student could develop this technology on their own, or the suspiciously highly sophisticated GOOGLE glass? Really....

Across the pond in the UK, there was another group of academics led by one man who recommended organizing the incoming data, hence Nominet was born.

ICANN in the US was founded by the venture Capitol company KPCB, Vint Cerf, Sun Microsystems and others. ICANN became the NEWCO that Al Gore & Bill Clinton gave the IANA oversight contract to, for 20 years now without other bidders getting the contract.

IANA is that important internet function that lets you name your website something fuzzy or your twitter handle or other such sites. IANA converts your domain words in to the letters the Internet converses in.

Back in 1999, Vint Cerf, a Worldcom executive testified to Congress how the ICANN would become a trillion dollar entity. Its enroute. Vint Cerf was also one of the original founders of ICANN, remember. Conflict of interest.

That said, the Internet was not commercial until 1998, when released by Clinton and Gore to their friends. Remember Gore and Cerf knew each other back in the 1970s. As it is, Gore is, today, a VP at the venture capital company that set up the NEWCO which became ICANN.

ICANN was set up as a charity, which means that every payment by the registries etc to ICANN are donations. There is more, of course.

As for the airlines and Ms Magreteh, do your diligence. Behind them you will find a trail to KPCB. POKEMON Go? Came from Alphabet Holdings.

So who is at fault? Well, the 1998 Oval, the academics who took ICANN from US Military Intel in to the public commerce to the financial companies and Wall Street entities driving the billion dollar unicorns. Trademarks, IP, ID were supposed to be respected.

At fault? Each and every legislators, both sides of the pond and globally who did not think beyond their nose. The US has an accountability that applies even to legislators. Until changed, there is one set of laws that applies to parliamentarians and everyday people.

ICANN is California based. It works with Verisign that is Virginia based. KPCB is California based.

First on the agenda. Do not let the IANA go to Switzerland a data private country. Swiss banks, eh? Now, the Swiss will bank our lives, our identity, our banking et al. God help us all.

And yes, I have reached out to Magrethe by Twitter. I guess making a difference is different than another self important headline.

There is NO such thing as legitimate plagiarism. Theft is theft is theft AND unwitting or knowingly complicit accessories are before, during and after the fact.

The TRUMPS are vicious on defending their brand, their names, their ID. Respondeat Superior is The Donald & the Mrs. T. This not nothing to do with liking the person, or not, it is about coming clean, challenging the internet that makes IP Theft all too easy.

There is NO speculation on who wrote what first, not in these days of the Internet where everything is trackable courtesy of the White House Digital office, Silicon Valley east, and via GOOGLE, seeded by KPCB, Vint Cerf, Sun Microsystems and others to take private military intel, the IANA, that Cerf told Congress in 1999 would generate Trillions. It is enroute, not a dime of which comes back to the taxpayers who are at risk of losing the IANA to Switzerland 9/30/2016.

The Clinton Oval set in to play that all disputes would be argued in Switzerland, too, no coincidence to the IANA domain name system heading there. As we have posted to our site, prior, The Donald and Ms. M have sued in the WIPO court in Switzerland to defend their brand.

As I have counseled others, I offer this sage advice to The Donald, and Mrs. T, get ahead of the embarrassment, admit the wrong and turn the writers computers over to Law Enforcement to set the example that Mr & Mrs T respect other people's Intellectual Property Rights, too.

Kapish? That is european for 'got it dude,'

I took a moment to read your bio. The elevator was not reaching the penthouse suite.
FINRA is guilty of shutting down whistleblowers. FINRA is guilty of passing confidential information through to FINRA 501(c)(6) dues collecting members. FINRA is guilty of pulling investment clients in to DRS forums that Congress approved ONLY for brokers and brokerages not for investment clients and investment advisors.
FINRA has 2 sets of rules, one for Wall Street and the other set, an inustice to Main Street and criminals who get locked up and away (http://www.centerforcopyrighti...
FINRA fails to report dues paying members crimes to law enforcement.
FINRA hid Madoffs crimes for 50 years, documented.
But then I read, you are former FINRA. You would avert your eyes from FINRA trained arbitrators alleging on their FINRA resumes to be lawyers when the local bar says "inactive."
And the protecting investors? How about that FOIA thing....FINRA is a .org not a .gov
Pendulums swing, two ways.

I have shaped a conversation on IP theft and protection and legilslative expectation in a world of Technology. I am Carrie Devorah. I want my royalties. I went to Congress and as an ARTS person without sponsorship or backing I achieved the first ever shout out in the Judiciary for artists & photographers.
My road there was unique. I had retired due to injury that ended my career as a news photographer covering the White House and Capitol Hill, my retirement career post having returned to America after a two year romp in Europe covering International Horseracing, Royals and Red Carpets, another retirement career post building the first discrete site crime analysis lab on the Continet, training for alphabet soup post retiring 2 decades as a leading lifestyle designed and hebraic calligrapher involved in building the licensing industry. I was there on the ground floor understanding the value of a single sale, the value of a royalty, that was before Technology turned my arts and passion in to a doormat.
 
My career trainings have come together along with the most important training an Arts person could get- Toastmaster enroute to DTM (CC, CL, ACB).

The book world lost an easy coup with the Chin decision for Google. I talk Google all the time. I told Turow, Google was an easy takedown that he punted on.

Nothing hurts a Creator more than being disrespected, stolen from, robbing you of your will to create.
So I came back a "dragon", the Mercer Mayer reference, battling tech with wits writers and creators have. And in a unique way, reflecting where we are, what we can do, most important just telling it like it is, something the lawyers sent to DC have failed to accomplish for our interests. I am not an activist. I am a creator who lives outside the box with two brains, a left one and a right one....

I am disappointed that Ms Morrow has not grasped the problem with our Content Theft are not the individual entities the ICANN IANAN system is allowing to propulate unfettered.

I am disappointed Ms Morrow has not grasped theft of our content ramped up in 1998 when the Oval privatized in to a charity, DARPA intel the academics, telecoms and other saw huge profit potential in, shall we say Trillions in profits projected with a system that is becoming more disruptive by the second.

I am disappointed Ms Morrow has not honed in stating the elements of crime require intent.

I am disappointed Ms M
orrow is so not standing up for her clients, industry and, well, everyone else in the world Silicon Valley and the Financial world collaborated with others. More than one? More than two? There is a word that starts with a "c" and ends with a "y"....

Ms Morrow, are you willing to take on the big boys towards stopping the thefts? I have. If not, then its all about fees........

Wharton Alumni responded to a petition against Presidential candidate Donald Trump citing he does not speak for them, citing the ethics and ethos of Wharton as a benchmark for excellence.

Over a year ago, Wharton was made aware a financial consultant currently awaiting a Judge's decision, was spreading via social sphere they were a Wharton grad.

And the Wharton alumni did not publish an online letter, did not protect the Wharton ethos and ethics, the name the history, the legacy.

Tragic that Wharton chooses to protect Wall Street v challenging a man inspiring Main Street, albeit not in a way that Wharton 'sanctions.'

Be consistent Wharton. When you pick and choose the enemy of your campus, your social blindness may be at a cost to people harmed, to people making a difference at cost.

Fair is fair in love and war except it seems when bluebloods keep their heads in the clouds. Go after one, go after all, in the pursuit of burnishing Wharton's name. Otherwise? You tarnish it by choosing sides via politics rather than Wall Street fleecing Main Street.

It is a misconception that Mugshots are public domain. They are not. An individual's mugshot is protected state to state, country to country by an individual's Right To Privacy and individual's Right To Publicity.

End of story.

Almost.

An incarcerated person can secure an attorney to pursue Defamation and/or Libel claim.

Think of it this way, everything of yours, data wise, that is in a police station can (and is, thanks to Google) is being made public as I type and you read what I am writing. Your life in a police station report is no less protected than the felon's life is or the booking shots posted on line and for profit.

All the sites have to do is get the felons permission if the warden permits

What I find interesting of this quote is that SRI, Standford University created SRI Stanford Research Instituted the USG funded to take military technology such as the Internet, the IANA function, etc. The SRI worked with Venture Capitalist KPCB and Vint Cerf to fund the NEWCO we know today as ICANN, a hundreds of millions generating non-profit charity that Bill Clinton contracted 20 years ago to take over running the IANA Domain Naming function that has allowed the teachings of ISIS to proliferate online. The entities were/have been working with the United Nations who in itself ran the country code for the Taliban in 1992, and others, all the while setting up the Shariah Compliant SWIFT codes that operate out of Europe.  THE CENTER FOR COPYRIGHT INTEGRITY

RUSSELL SIMMONS DID NOT REACH OUT TO ME

It is about Wall Street set up to hide their crimes from cops.


I frame it as 'injustice to criminals.'


I am the person behind Bill HR 1098. I found the docs that confirm that Madoff told the truth when he said 'they knew.' 'They' did. 1963. First time. Disciplined for No Product.


I am based in the Beltway. Simmons initiative is no different that the countless other initiatives plugging the Hill. It is about an intentional hiding of crimes by persons who knew to work the system, a Wall Street cottage industry that I have been exposing.

The DCMA argument is what happens when ARTISTS let their lawyers do the talking. The problem is NOT the DCMA. The problem is the Internet was set in to play intending to accomplish all the disruption it is doing. The disruption is not accidental. It is a deliberate journey as I continue to write and reveal. As THE content creator that got the first shout outs in Congress for ARTISTS & PHOTOGRAPHERS I have sat in rooms firsthand with the lobbyists, lawyers and others yapping on case and precedence without a care for the content creators reality.

The reps get paid to show up, travel whether they do a good job or not. AND the Artists do not know much the better, case in point TAYLOR SWIFT and XXX. Swift does not have enough money in the world to own all the TLDS that are taking her Identity and Content. But SWIFT got publicity challenging .porn and .xxx. There thousands more TLDS that have been rolled out able to even take a song of hers and TLD it, if that paying party has enough cash.

Legislators staffs are raised in a tech generation. Wait. Give it time. A few more legislators 'deleted' facebook saucy messages, and more staffers outed, there will be an outcry. It will be too late.

The control of the Internet was given 20+ years ago by the Gore/Clinton Oval office to friends (cough) and Venture capitalist who seeded the ICANN, used the IANA for purposes its "daddy" said it should not be used for. He died 'mysteriously' and the rest is commercial cash cow history, and a data grab including the DCMA.

All the DCMA does is grab, hoard and analyze data.

Sorta would be nice if Taylor and Paul took time to read what I write and post, more important the actual docs I post. Until the ART CONTENT CREATORS do their own reading and vetting and stop listening to lawyers on their retainers, the Taylors and the Pauls deserve what they are reaping.

I am a content creator. I got in to leading the fact based ARTS CONTENT Conversation because my IP was stolen.. I want my royalties. And I said I will get them. I do not work for free.

The SEC has NO oversight of any of the Investment Advisors challenging constitutionality of the ALJ Judges.The SEC should stop the FINRA from pulling the IAs in under FINRAs accountability dodge designed in concert with PIABA attorneys building their cottage industry alleging lawyers can argue in any state or jurisdiction without being licensed in that local bar or court or even the state itself.The SEC has no oversight of investment client complaints. The states do, each and every state and jurisdiction in America has a dog in the fight against brokers and brokerages, let me repeat, brokers and brokerages, not, as FINRA and PIABA constructed so called ‘financial consultants‘ deemed, by FINRA and PIABA, to be the magic word to pull an IA, Investment Advisor complaint away from the courts where investment clients complaints against investment advisors belongs.Any ALJ, or other Judge, who fails to investigate the legitimacy of a FINRA generated award in the matter including an investment advisor ought to be de-robed for violating that Judges/lawyers code of ethics.​SincerelyCarrie Devorah562 688 2883The Investor Behind the Industry Celebrated BILL HR 1098, The Investor Choice Act of 2015Found the documents confirming Madoff told the truth when Madoff said "They Knew", yes, as far back as 1963, 50 years before Markopolous claims

am disappointed Caitlin at your lack of vetting facts. Google is seeded by the VC's who along with Vint Cerf and others put up the funds to form NEWCO the winning bidding entity on the competitive "bid" that President Clinton and Al Gore, along with Podesta in office, put out 'there' within which to release military tech, officially. Unofficially, the internet was being sold and worked on to set up the infrastructure that collapsed Ma Bell making way for the internet dominance of our private and public lives. Clinton and Gore set the entity up as a non-profit, a charity, with specific rules on the trademarks, copyrights and identities being respected and not violated. Moreso, that bid entity, was renewed for 20 years to the same entity- behind which are the academics and scientists the military was hiring to work on the internet.

It isnt rocket science if you do diligence.

It is less of rocket science when one recorded Vint Cerf stating that Al Gore was put in to Congress to make the internet thing happen. Al Gore? Well, he is now a Senior VP at the entity that funded the non profit.. You can listen to Vint Cerf on my website www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com, search Cerf.

Cerf and his cronies found young guys they could mold to put in to position as the company heads. The advisory boards are the alter-cackers behind these kids whose companies are being seeded left and right.

There is so much more to this data domination you dont adress but should have. I do. Make sure you attribute.

Bing, google, facebook, alibaba.... all money trees lead to SV
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At ground zero of this is the Internet IANA function that President Bill Clinton & VP Al Gore signed over to friends & VC to privatize as a 'non profit' the highly profitable internet that Vint Cerf testified to the House E&C Committee in 1999 would become a trillion dollar industry.

There were rules.

The Department of Commerce has failed to hold the ICANN to those rules.

The tone of politics, the anonymity of threats would not be if the Military technology had not been privatized to the academics the USG had working on them.

So is the a Donald/Melania problem?

Yes from the POV this is not part of the Donald conversation.

Asked again is this a Melania/Donald problem? Not if the journo did not fact check and did not preserve the documents she made her representations from.

There is a journalism creed media is held accountable to. Well, used to. And there is the adultness of accountability. A journalist knows when they put something out in public, even pre bloggesphere, no one can predict how that 'pebble' will ripple....

The process is not fair.

Start there.

Accept there was an agenda in place. THAT SAID, you do not state you took action against the persons or parties who complained against your name in the getgo, cancelling your concert.

It is a fair reach to go from cancelling your concert to cancelling your trademark. Steps are missing.

Let me explain the misnomer of belief that someone working in a government job is shielded from litigation for decisions they make. They are not, moreso, that person is bound to their oath of being a civil servant.

Your loss includes goodwill, restraint of trade, state by state impact of of your Rights of Publicity and Privacy that are most likely impacted by that person that leapt their personal bias in to your band name.

A slant, by dictionary definition, is "to not be level or straight up and down

: to present (something, such as a news story) in a way that favors a particular group, opinion, etc."

How did that definition that is a binding definition get twisted? Someone failed in their diligence and in stating THAT is the text book definition of slant.

Moreso, slant.com was created and approved as a domain 1996. A domain, a trademark are identifying monikers. IF your trademark was cancelled then the domain should be cancelled unless.....

I am the investor behind Bill HR 1098, The Investor Choice Act, brought out by Congressman Keith Ellison, an advocate against forced arbitration.

A day in court is a right to the American people. THAT SAID, the deeper I got in to becoming expert on FINRA, PIABA and the investment client, what became apparent was that forced arbitration was the FINRA/PIABA tool for taking crimes against investment clients and by investment advisors out of the courts and away from law enforcement oversight.

Let me explain, again, differently.

Complaints were being forced in to a forum that Congress said was only for complaints between brokers and brokerages.

FINRA/PIABA have been using forced arbitration to hide criminal behaviour. What is at issue is not arbitration but what the law as written said was the process.

That said, the Act of 1940 says something more important, $10,000 and jail for lawyers complicit in the fraud(s), paraphrased.

There is an obvious argument that is overlooked in all of the insensitivity sensitivity in that neither side is right nor wrong and the prejudice may be, after all, in the eye of the USPTO employee reviewing the MARK.
If one sits down, invests time in to reviewing trademarks that are approved by the USPTO and at the requestor, one will see examples such as the “N” word being applied for and granted to an actor of that community.
If one sits down, invests time in to reviewing trademarks that are approved by the USPTO for body parts using words moms no longer wash mouths out with soap, when used.
That is, “IF” one sits down.
Being a DC insider, more important is to realize the motivations of the person forcing the issue- did they demonstarte personal harm. More often, if you are around DC long enough, there is nothing you have not seen, even alot of adults with their inner child still craving attention.
The tragic reality is that every dollar going in to arguing these matters is a dollar going to line lawyers pockets that cannot be spent on community.
So let me ask, is the real bigot the one reviewing the application at the USPTO, someone with job security most likely, as it is today, working from home somewhere in the world after doing their two year stint on campus in Alexandrai, someone we have no idea of their politics, their upbringing, their issues, medical or otherwise. Inquiring minds want to know because one day, the Mark that will be rejected is dog or cat or toe or two. Why? Becauuse that same examiner knew of someone who knew of someone who knew of someone who was offended because cat can be pussy which can mean something other than feline and two is more than one in a sea of people preferring to be alone….. get it?

The culture of greed & no accountability is a by-product of the S.R.O.s running their private cottage industry.FINRA the SRO for the securities industry has, hand in hand, worked with PIABA cultivating a garden fraught with deceit that has over time become accepted practice largely due to failure of diligence.FINRA is limited by The Commission to being an SRO for the securities industry yet over time FINRA has, by its own admission, taken in 99% of the complaints from investment clients and against investment advisors beyond its allowed scope of brokers and brokerages.PIABA, a business league of securities lawyers, add to this fraud by failing to tell consumers Congress gave no such approval to the securities SRO to get arbitrate complaints from investment clients, let alone IAs.Moreso, PIABA, the lawyers business league created this fantasy their dues paying members, and other lawyers, can argue, for pay, in any state across America and in other countries that FINRA/NASD wrote MoUs with.Not at all. Lawyers are bound to local law. Problem is too many lawyers dont read and almost all clients trust what their lawyer tells them.FINRA has an MoU with the UK. Madoffs crimes go back 50 years, unreported to law enforcements most likely in the UK too. (Screengrabs available on site- search Madoff)Tragic isnt it to learn how bad the bad lawyers in a noble profession will be.EVERY unlicensed lawyer that argued in FINRA forums, domestic, international & UK, without being licensed in local jurisdiction took away that job from a local lawyer compliant with state law.

As life goes I was at the LOC daylong symposium Monday, the day SCOTUS word came down the AUTHORS GUILD v GOOGLE decision came down to not hear the Authors Guild appeal.

Scott Turow was on the "arts panel." The day was filled with the "usual suspects" the lawyers, lobbyists on team with the agenda to remove rights from Content Creators.

I have no shame. I am a content creator.

I said to Scott, "what the hell were you thinking? Even I read Chin's order stating 'i gave them a chance to give me a reason to rule differently.' Scott tossed his head at the blonde walking by, the lawyer.

I knew then why the Authors lost. They never met 'the blonde'. They didnt pay attention when Turow said he has lots of money. They never went to these symposiums as I do, able to look around the room at the Usual Suspects, lawyers paid to be lawyers year after year for decades leaving our ARTS communities in the abyss that gave our talent to thieves knowing we are the source blood of their billion dollar unicorn valuations.

It is as simple as Associations not doing diligence to hold their reps toes to the fire.

The LOC video is being 'transcribed' will be put to their site, eventually. Watch it. You got what you paid for, someone to do your job for you when Rule 1 is Be Your Own Best Advocate

The hypocrisy is in having approved the online Content theft back in the '90s then coming back to lead the MPAA, without conscience. The online scourge can end tonight if Dodd wanted to do right. He wont. Nor will Clinton, Gore, Powell, and the powers that be planning what Vint Cerf plans to wrap up 9/2016 taking the IANA function key to online crimes like revenge porn.

WEWORKS CRUSHES VORNADO REALTY CRYSTAL CITY TO THE POINT OF TheyGAVEIN

The story that is not told here and should be investigated are the stories of the people that have fallen on the stairs, then be directed to the insurer who redirects to an out of state adjuster. Retailers being dislocated starting June 1 tell stories of the countless people they have seen fall over the years and the ensuing litigations that are not reported to media. One retailer stated, anonymously, their significant other ran a check on litigations against the firm from falls, allegedly dating as far back as the decade the retailer was a tenant.

Vornado lost its prominence disrupted by WeWorks. A year ago, Mitch sat on a Bisnow panel with the WEWORKS exec, turned his back to him then politely blasted for ten year plans destroyed by the industry that rents 'anything.'

Vornado has not made public how it has converted existing tenants in to a concept called 'hotelling.' The anonymous source said, 'what the hell is hotelling' in light of their no longer having a desk and cubicle to call 'home.'

WeWorks, now also WeLIVE, is partnering with Vornado, a concession of Vornado being beat by the disruptive tech industry that Vornado raced to embrace.

That said, failure to disclose litigations, failure to take sooner actions, may be the downfall of Vornado that its successor or conqueror WeWorks/WeLive is inheriting. It is of public record. There is no chance of stating 'we did not know' moreso in light of the 1/16 ADA concession Vornado made to the US Attorneys office.

Failure to adress the personal injuries caused by failures, possibly, compliance, only makes matters worse for the Realty Trust, moreso in the behaviours of the insurers advising complainants that 'based upon their investigation there is no harm on behalf of Vornado.' Stating that in light of ADA and injuries is something WeWant to hear the comeback answer to.

In the meantime WeWait until ARLnow gets the rest of the story, right, which WeWILL read.

Until then

This article is off base factually.
1- PIABA is a 501(c)(6) non profit business league that the IRS requires to collect dues from its members
2- FINRA is a 501(c)(6) a non profit business league that the IRS requires to collect dues from its members
3- PIABA lawyers write FINRA codes and rules that impact investors, with FINRA. This is a conflict of interest, moreso
4- PIABA lawyers are taking investment clients in to a forum that Congress did not approve for investment clients and investment advisors
 
IN the words of FINRA GC Terri Reicher 'FINRA HAS NOTHING TO TAKE AWAY FROM INVESTORS.'

FINRA is not a neutral forum. FINRA is not the forum for investment clients. The way it looks to me is that every lawyer who takes a client in to a non-neutral, non-appropriate forum is a lawyer that will, not if, but will lose their license for violating.... let's see- fiduciary, accessory, aiding and abetting.....

Investment clients are entitled to their day in Court. PIABA lawyers are tricking clients out of their day in court, some even practicing law without a license in states around the country and in international forums.

No tears, here. PIABA helped FINRA cover up Madoff's crimes for 50 years.

ADRESSING ERIC SCHMIDT AT THE PENTAGON
The boundary between USG and Google was crossed back when Google employees were the academics the USG was funding with research dollars in the anticipation of that data going back to DARPA. The academics led by Vint Cerf saw big dollars in the IANA function as a projected trillion dollar earning tool. You know IANA as the DNS that thing that converts the names we give our domains back in to the numbers needed for computers to talk. The giving of the DNS/IANA was done under John Podesta, currently working with Hillary, formerly with 44. The IANA was given to the non profit that Vint and Sunmicrosystems set up. There always is more to the story. You will find details and screengrabs at www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com  search IANA, Cerf, google, etc.

Placing Schmidt in the Pentagon is bad

1- FINRA is arbitrating claims of Investment Clients and Investment advisors providing the ICs and IAs "broker" submission forms to sign along with Awards AGAINST Investment clients and Investment IAs that are worded for brokers. FINRAs website states that FINRA is not a forum for investment clients. Congress did not give the Commission, the SEC oversight over Investment Clients and Investment Advisors. FINRA says in an email to me that FINRA does not try to figure out what the lawyer was thinking to bring his client in to the FINRA forum, nor the Investment Client who signs the papers to submit to the FINRA forum

2- There is, there has been for decades ONE S.R.O. The SEC Act states the Commission is to approve S.R.Os, plural. The SEC wrote me that only have ever been only one SRO applicant. The website hosts multiple litigations against FINRA. Somehow, FINRA, an applicant, has usurped and misrepresented that FINRA is the portal to approval to be an SRO.

As for claimants and the "contract", let's talk.... as I see it there are alot of lawyers who should begin to worry, now...... for practicing law without a license, for misrepresenting fact, for... heck, read what I write and provide supporting documentation to....

FINRA complaints are not in the decline. FINRA got better at covering crimes up and burying Whistleblowers.

Customer complaints are expunged, often to get paid

Customer complaints are settled hence not appearing on FINRA brokercheck records

FINRA brokercheck is self reporting. If one digs deep enough one can find missing reportable data, unless, that said, the Financial Consultant has removed that damaging data.

Financial consultants do use alias as was done with Mark Lev/Lew of Lew Lieberbaum.

Financial consultants do appear and reappear under different company 'names' and IDs.....

One financial consultant was determined to have over 60+ online alias'.... so far.

FINRA does not report its dues paying members crimes to law enforcement. FINRA is legally required to report FINRA business league member crimes to law enforcement. FINRA is a private business, not a government business, stated bluntly in a FINRA GC email to me.

FINRA/NASD did not report Bernard Madoffs crimes to cops. Madoffs crimes were known in 1963. Madoff told the truth on that fact. Documents are posted to www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com Search Madoff

If the woman signed a model's release, then she is up the river without a 9 incher paddle. If the person who took the photo is the person that sold the photo to Burger King there is that grey area of ownership of the photo but a swampier area of the photo being used commercially. Of course the relationship of the woman and the photographer will be explored. There is the issue of rights of publicity and rights of privacy. And of course there is the fact that if the woman or photographer posted the photos online there is a TOS, terms of service on most sites that states the person who posted the photo is the owner of the copyright and by posting the image online they are giving ownership away to the ISP. So if the woman herself has posted pictures in the past on the ISP that would/could be used against her in BK defense to state the woman is worldly in the ways of the online world and...... that said... if Burger King can document the photo was paid for the question then reduces in to Terms of the contract including ut not limited to Territory, time and dollars. Make sense?

MARBYs resume of 20 years in Telecommunications pegs MARBY as one of those behind the pull of ICANN's IANA oversight to the United Nations. Fact is ICANN has no independence to appoint ANY director. ICANN is under contract to the USG Department of Commerce controlling (if they did their job) the IANA function the valuable tool making millions, projected to billions even trillions as far back as the stump speeches given by Al Gore and Vint Cerf.

What I want to see is the sign off from the US Department of Commerce that approved hiring a foreigner for a job an American can and should do. The IANA function is DARPA US Military technology that did and still does have Americans able to do the work the ICANN alleged in their FORM 1023 that no one else could do.......

With competent investigative scrutiny, investigators will, too, document the massage of the IANA golden goose in to the trillions $$$$ projected entity that is disrupting the globe. Party to this, too, is Nominet, in the UK.

What I want to know is HOW competent legislators let the academics 'steal' taxpayer funded technology without  putting a brakes on the scam.

Let me explain, the millions that are paid for gTLDS are 'donations'.... yup.
History repeating itself. IBM, too, was USG developed technology that someone privatized. You know the rest of the story....

Not quite…. Hollywood took a Wall Street’rs story. There was no telling of the meltdown in the committee hearing rooms. There was no telling of details someone there witnessed that no one not even Hollywood could conceive. There was no telling of the decades of hearings that led to the policy that allowed that moment in catastrophe to take place. To suggest that the crash was of the banks doing resonates a writer with, or without his own regrets.
The crescendo to September 2008 was not accidental. Policy is written over time, then re-written so many times few remember what the original intention was. Political broken telephone is part of it. Weighted power to regulators
Mr. Pitt asks how the ‘this’ happened again?
Congress. Congress wrote the rules. Congress made a Commission. The Commission was supposed to appoint a whole bunch of SROs. The Commission did not. The SRO wrote its own rules that the Commission is required to sign off of and didn’t. The SRO profited from bad behaviours. The Commission profits too splitting $$$ with the Federal Reserve.
Every legislator from 1933 to present date is liable. Every staffer. Every lobbyist. And, from personal experience, all of us who trusted professionals who told us they were experts as we signed their ‘dotted lines.’ The finger pointed at hedge fund guy who blamed the bankers is to twisted back at themselves. Ask the people that covered the Hill, the Treasury, the Oval, the East Room, the Senate, the House. The story is to be completed. In time…. Main Street is about to slap Wall Street back good and hard….
Dateline- 11/2008. The SEC got a tip of another fraud. No one told the existing clients of the firm. No one told prospective clients of the firm. No one told the police (not as if the police would know what to do) with Financial Crime reports. The police had no clue of the SRO’s existence. They are learning. 12/2014, the SEC Administrative Consent Orders began appearing online. No one wrote the investors they could take action….. http://www.dbo.ca.gov/ENF/pdf/2013/RBCCapMrkt_ConsentOrder.pdf... Where did you see this reported? http://www.disb.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/disb/publication/attachments/RBCCapitalMarketsLLCAdmOrder011014.pdf Where did you see this reported? Check a state, any state…. Until then, demand more of Wall Street…………..

I will disagree with you in that the billion dollar valuations are inflated via manipulations coming out of Silicon Valley and the VCs that seeded them. If one digs deep enough one learns the "billion dollar millenials" did not build their companies, their companies were 'arranged' starting from the front person through the backend. Wonder how all the 'different' online travel sites offer the same prices? You should. They are fed by the same ground floor, so to speak. These kids arent genius. Their boards are the so to speak their brains.

It is that simple. Amazon is big getting bigger. Google is big getting bigger. The others? After the teams cashed out the valuations, if you are paying attention are not manifesting as hoped for. Winter and human nature just disrupted Ubers model. Watch the shares, the comments, the repetitiveness of data that someone in San Francisco, or London, or wait.... where are they sitting when they type that data in...

As for the financial industry, tell me this. Who is the investor going to be able to hold accountable for 'disruption?' And will they be able to since online accounting can and is manipulated. Statements, online, are here today and gone tomorrow.

Your argument should be as I have written- Constitution allowed for Gold and Silver. Then US man made paper. Then Bitcoin and now Blockchain will soon hit.... These alternative currencies are not constitutional. Argue that before the 42 + banks backed by Wall Street (private companies- Nasdaq, etc) run with them.

If you are commiserating on what may be the handwriting on your wall, I get that but if you are trying to save your industry, then your approach of 'woe' is not what you should be offering readers. Robots come and go and men get.... oh wait............

The authors themselves have failed. Too often our desire to get a publishers leads us to assume the publisher is there for us. The publisher is there for themselves. As is the agent. As is everyone else along with way. This is a lesson I was taught way back in licensing. If THEY could do it themselves, they would. It takes work to publish. If you want the publishing path than negotiate better terms or publish yourself understanding each decision has a cost of doing business, a tradeoff.

The loss though with the Authors Guild lawsuit is that a lawyer wrote pleadings not 'knowing' the constituency the lawyer argued for. I read the Judge's decision. Chin wrote that he gave the lawyer a chance to make the case, in fact, it seemed like Chin begged the lawyer to get it right.

The fault of that case loss that was so badly argued for authors, that should have been won, lies in the members of that Guild and every other Guild that pay dues, dont attend meetings, dont read exchanged papers. We all do it. We trust.... and that was how we ended up with Venture Capitalist KPCB seeding the Googles, Amazons and others that tore our royalty carpets out from under us.

We did deserve better. We just didnt take the time to give 'better' to ourselves.

It was an unintended consequence that I learned firsthand how the intentional divide between Main Street and Wall Street came to be. The Big Short is told from the insider's point of view. The movie, while well done is not the reality the Main Streeter experiences. The Big Short is unable to explain how "people got screwed."

I can and do in my writings that I accompany with screengrabs that show Madoff told the truth when he said, "They knew." They did. 50 years ago.

I make the point of reminding people, that Madoff turned himself in. "They" did not. "They" said they did not know of Madoff's activities. "They" did, no less than 4 months before Madoff walked himself in to the US attorneys.

How did this all come about? Congress, lobbyists, the rest of the story that is being told, a bit at a time as I continue to live it- revealing how laws got written to keep Wall Street criminals walking the streets while, as I write it and told legislators, Eric Garner, couldnt.

The Big Short is an excellent start. The Madoff papers are a next chapter. I intend to be the final chapter closing the book on how Wall Street intends to shut down Main Street. I am that one person behind a Bill moving through Congress, Bill HR 1098, the Investor Choice Act. One person can make the difference. First, they have to go through a living hell, then come out documents swinging.

I did. I am.

 The photo the Clinton campaign released is an interesting choice. I look at the photo as a profiler. There are characteristics one anticipates of couples that are living together, physically close, intimate.

BILL:
Hand on Hillary's shoulder closest to him, not on the far shoulder drawing her close to him, a posture that a male protective or engaged with the female would take as the reader would expect if this photo was taken while the Clintons were living together as the article adresses they did
Heels are clicked together
Crotch is a distance away not up close to a woman that a man is engaged with, in the least one would anticipate a couple living together would stand thigh to thigh, 'joined at the hip'
Daylight can be see between the male and the female

HILLARY:
Feet/knees/legs tight together
Hands in pocket not on Bill
Head not leaning towards Bill a posture that a female attracted to or engaged with the male would take as the reader would expect if this photo was taken while the Clintons were living together as the article adresses they did

The photo is undated. It would be curious to know when the pic was taken then to timeline the pic comments in to the living together scenario.

Word to Politicos posting pics to promote POTUS runs, have a profiler review the photo first to catch the subliminal nuances that paid and/or volunteer staffers miss

I.O.T. Internet of Thieves.  The profits are made by the VCs who are orchestrating the placement of 'startup' heads. GOOGLE 'founders' used USG technology paid for by taxpayers. GOOGLE is SRI. SRI is a USG research lab. Have you not noticed how you search a product online and the subsequent searches produce the same results that you can 'bid' down? Very simple to grasp once the paper trail was completed. The VC is like the momma pig the piglets all get the same nutrition from... in this case, the tech nutrition is our private habits, information and data. Their problem is the signs of consumer burnout are showing now   Please LINKEDIN  www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com

Pherah is no less a shell company than companies and brokerages on Wall Street are. FINRA issues empty awards to investors on shell companies hence uncollectable then why not have a shell company chase an infringer, if that infringement is valid.

Shell companies have unfortunately become part of the American accepted way of doing business. With tech running Wall Street, it looks like, what goes around is coming around.

Bottom line, whoever legitimately bought the patent owns it. Let the Courts decide

SANDRA BULLOCK SEEKING PRIVACY FOR HER CHILDREN:

Being a parent is hard enough without being a celebrity parent a target for stalkerrazi and fans with Social Media blogs, handles and followings that they want 15 minutes of fame for.

Ms. Bullock is quoted saying "I dont want there to be a bounty on my children's heads, so if I can share an essence of who they are and stop the helicopters over the backyard then I am happy."

Ms. Bullock also says "We had a scary emergency room run and unbeknownst to me a photographer had followed us and taken a photo of us in line.... I learned that a photo of her was being shopped around for sale to every outlet around the world. I had promised and legally agreed to protect her from something like this and here I was chasing down lawyers= having them beg everyone to keep her safe- and tabloid outlets were claiming so many things that were inaccurate. All this just for money. I had to make sure CPS knew what was fact and fiction."

Bullock continues "I was sure she would be taken away." As an adoptive parent, Bullock explained in the article that she was asked to sign a confidentiality agreement that said ,to protect the child, Bullock would not release photos of Bullock's new daughter to a 3rd party..."

Bullock said "I wish we had laws in place that protected all children's privacy."

Laws do exist not only protecting children's privacy. Laws protect adult's privacy, too, on a state by state basis. The laws that Ms. Bullock wishes "in place" are rights of publicity and rights of privacy. These laws exist on a state by state basis. These laws make it possible for Ms. Bullock, a parent, to sue violators in each and every state her childrens photos are accessed in. Moreso, a person, even a child, owns their name and image for Life+ 70. Moreso, laws for stalking exist on a state by state basis as do laws adressing human trafficking, selling a person, interstate even online.

The disruption of print in to an online 'media' market has Ms. Bullock's children's images being marketed internationally. There is a solution to stop the online trafficking of her and her images. Doing my best...

Dear Jim

Nice article. A bit, umm, behind the times when it comes to facts. Dont take that personally. You have been reading the prior 'stuff.'

I took to digging documents.
The reality check of Main Street & Wall Street is that there is no chance for the little guy to succeed other than what the big guy lets him do.

Let me explain.

There are two sets of rules in WS v MS and Congress wrote the rules, sorta.

Let me explain.

Better yet, visit my website www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com, search keywords like SEC, FINRA, Madoff, Congress, VC. View the screengrabs in the hits you will get.

There you go.... by playing broken telephone we all got played. Who am I? The lady that FINRA does not like, the lady behind FINRA hustling under cover of dark to pull FINRA DRS into FINRA, the 'other' one. Like I wrote above, Congress wrote rules.... and FINRA DRS was not one of them....

As the industry says, booyah!

Carrie Devorah
your next guest on your show who will pull back the to the ugly that WS covered up

Senator Kelly Ayote & The IRS Commissioner:
The recent letter to the IRS commissioner and their concessions sounds great. The IRS problem is far greater. An investment advisor of a global firm stole my identity and assets, even faking IRS documents and in my name requesting a retroactive change in 1999. My documentation is spot on and in the hands of multiple regulatory agencies.

Buoyed by the Times article on a call in number I called. Almost 40 minutes later and multiple repeats of numbers, prompts and 'we are overworked', I hung up to call your office where I got prompts and no live person.

Having covered the Hill for too long, I know how overworked your staff is. Documents, correspondences and the reality check of the IRS and Wall Street are the 'picture worth a thousand words.'

I look forward to meeting you in person. I can explain to you from firsthand experiences, as a proponent of the IRS staff, key points their Commissioner is too distant from knowing, that I do. They are good people lamblasted for bad rules that Congress created with the hope of making better.

Sincerely
Carrie Devorah

I for one am not surprised reading this model is a failure. The US while pushing entrepreneurship has failed to publish entrepreneurial reports since 2010 concurrent to pushing VC backed startup notions.

The in the weeds data the US government does not publish is that most startups fail, something tried and true business people know; second, that the US government is the biggest customer of these startups that go through rounds of VC funding; and thirdly, that the US government initiated a dollar for dollar matching program for venture Capitol dollars so that if ie. KPCB put $10 million in to a funding, the US government paid KPCB $10 million, a win win game for the VC making money, a no gamble win win for the VC, a win win for the US government making the economy look better and a lose lose for the global economy looking awesome before it swan dives off the economic cliff right where the game changer has been moving as intended all this time, topics I write on adressing the impact of Tech on IP &ID and ARTS, driving a global economic 'prototype' of a google driverless car.

Yes, like it or not, this agenda was set in to play under the 1992-1999 Oval Office occupant  documented.

Shurat Hadin to self promote their litigation infringed the Fox story by copying and pasting the story along with Infringment Alert in to the email. Theft of IP even for the purpose of promoting an accomplishment for a cause is unacceptable moreso by a lawyer. Lawyers in America are accountable to the same laws people are liable for.

The most disappointing is Shurat Hadin's failure to sue the correct party, failing to take lead in a global issue of online terrorism. If Shurat Hadin's ambition is to draw attention to itself by filing litigations then that has been accomplished but to stop the problem? Shurat Hadin is so far away from taking on online terror than one could be. As the child's game goes in America when it comes to letting someone know they are near or far... cold getting freezing Shurat Hadin, cold getting freezing stopping online terror and incitement going down the path you are on

The Redskins will have a very hard time on this challenge only because the team has taken a public stance already, as stated by Monumental Sports, when I asked them about the use of Players images by fans as AVATARS. The Monumental Sports rep said it was an acceptable cost of the team doing business to encourage fan participation.

Each of the team players AVATARS is used by site hosts and ISPs for profit. Each share constitutes a crime. Not that I mean to help the Fanduel team but if one is going to argue for Rights of Publicity, one must be consistent across the board which the players have not been consistent about unfair use.

The people to sue, actually, are not FanDuel or any other site out there using or providing the platform for Image sharing, the people to sue are the ISPs and the domain providers which as I have told the Redskins counsel up at AU, is the private non profit set up by President Clinton in 1998, an entity under Department of Commerce control that had specific guidelines set out in a White Paper at that time.

The players problem is not their problem alone. The problem of Identity Theft, IP theft, commerce and Rights of Privacy and Publicity theft is the exact problem my ARTS & Photographers community is decimated by, as well as is the problem of the music, written world and the every day Joe.

Behind all of these sites popping up on the net, like Fanduel, racing in to "business" using other people as their commodity, are the venture capitalists that set about this course of disruption as far back as the establishment of the United Nations.

Pierre's litigation is offbased in that it is not being argued correctly nor targeted at the right people. Pierre's litigation is just another suit in a string of the whack-a-moles that feel good to hit out with but dont cure the cancer.

ANSWERING http://chronicle.com/article/Google-s-Court-Victory-Is/233940

Your perception of what is fair, Pamela, is distorted by your agenda and the agenda of your foundations set up in support of the internet disrupting traditional business. Not everyone has the good fortune to have married in to Silicon Valley's intention to take what belongs to others to make their Tech machinisms run.

What is fair is getting paid for work one does. If working for free is acceptable to you, then I am first to stand in line to collect your paycheck. If taking the profits a person earns is ok with you, then I have my hand out for your hubby's royalties. What is fair is fair in fair use, then you and the Mr. are on board with supporting the artists and writers and other content creators left struggling to make ends meet. We arent too proud that the ARTS creators will refuse sharing royalties from Veo Systems. Most likely we will plow that monies into more arts supplies to follow our passion of making dreams come alive on paper, in song, and such.

We work hard. Years of schooling and training are stolen in a flick or a click. Many ARTS content creators are freelance, working on spec that our ARTS will be that image that builds an industry a la Mortimer Mouse driving the Disney gravy train. We ARTS content creators dont get paid by the hour, we dont get paid by the day. We dont get pensions. We dont get 401Ks. We dont even get minimum wage. With the intent of the Internet to steal other people's property, we dont even get, as my late friend Rodney Dangerfield said, 'we dont get no respect.'

#4 of Fair Use states, "if you cost someone their living it isnt fair use.' Librarians I engage with state they want people to earn what is owed to them and that Pamela is the way it is. The librarians Pamela, when asked how they feel if an ARTS content creator picked up the librarians purse and walked to the door say they would call the cops. Our ARTS are our pocketbooks.e.

Now, when shall I come by to pick up my piece of your royalties or Foundations net worths- the
  • Glushko-Samuelson Intellectual Property Law Clinic of the Washington College of Law American University;
  • the Samuelson Law, Technology & Public Policy Clinic  at University of California, Berkley; 
  • Samuelson-Glushko Intellectual Property and Information Law Clinic at Fordham University; 
  • the Samuelson-Glushko Technology Law & Policy Clinic at University of Colorado, Boulder;
  • the Samuelson-Glushko Canadian Internet Policy & Public Interest Clinic at the University of Ottawa? Next time you are in DC testifying to break ARTS content creators piggy banks again? Or is the check in the mail.

Until then Google provides no benefit to authors. Better yet, if I read the laws right, Google's problems are circling the globe, and America, state by state....

To be corrected, the USPTO releases Patents at 2:00am in the morning when America is asleep but the Orient is awake as pointed out to Congressman Goodlatte head of the Judiciary who said, "I didnt know that."
As they say in the military, "You spoofing me?"
No, quite serious...... stealing? Not with the USG online strategy of IANA transformed by Bill Clinton in to a private "non profit", ICANN, in 1998, a non profit predicted in the House hearing, 1999, to become a trillion dollar entity. The original stated rules were ICANN could only make as much as it needed to operate....

Keeping people alive after death or ending a client relationship is currently occuring in the Financial Services world. The financial consultants that have been caught are charged by FINRA as "adopting" an account. IPOs, cayman product and other financial actions take place without clients knowing about this occurring.

FINRA, the self regulator (which is cleaned up term for 'child molester policing the schoolyard') has MoU's (Memorandum of Understanding) with the U.K. Clients more often will not know their accounts are alive after being closed. As in the case with RBC nationally charged in America with the home office not having oversight of CAs and RRs, client accounts have had Social Security #s, email adresses and client details changed without the client never knowing unless a correspondence slips through to the client. The firm can control from the account managing office whether or not emails are sent to the client.

How does this relate to AI? Well, with NASDAQ LINK setting a platform for Bitcoin, with TOR technology and ICANN's pitiful oversight of online crime and terrorism, all those stolen identities we continue to read about may just 'come back to life' paired with all the photos FB took ownership of after users were misled in to believing the environment was safe.

AI? We are already 'alive' in another universe with changed TLD's, thousands of TLD options and more to come. The asylum seekers pouring through borders? Well, they may be you without your knowing about it. Remember, Google is the traffic cop of the Internet sending search results where Google wants them to go and keeps them away from where Google wants them sent.

USG . DNS . SWITZERLAND & IANA (and $$$)

Vint Cerf said IANA is leaving to Switzerland 9-2016. If there is anything I have learned about Vince it is he broadcasts. The removal of IANA to Switzerland is a done deal.

Be scared.

Despite Fadi's assurances the USG will have oversight of IANA in Switzerland, it seems yet again, intentionally or otherwise, the USG has not done due diligence in its research. Switzerland has laws barring outsiders from accessing data sorta like Swiss Banking... what is in the clouds above the Alps, stays in the clouds above the Alps.

Of worry is how the ICANN of today is nothing of the ICANN as set up as a Friends With Benefits private company by former President Clinton. Consistent to the movement of telecommunications to military data gathering via the Internet is Vint Cerf, that common thread that stays in the picture consistently. No. Vince didnt invent the Internet, a Bush did moving the vision from the 1930's through formation of that UN business league. Vint is just the TCP/IP guy.

What I want to know along with other inquiring minds, what patents does Vint own? Are the patents owned with which employer- the private companies he bounced back and forth between and/or with the USG? And how much?

It usually always does come down to money.... honey. Got to give Vint credit for one thing, from the get go Vint has said the Internet is not secure. For the life of me cant figure out how a burgeoning business has built around something that cannot be done... DNS security.

Hey, I got a bridge in Brooklyn.................

I took up Criminal Justice reform almost two years ago with Congressman Keith Ellison, author of Bill HR 1098, the Investor Choice Act.

Congress allowed for many SROs to deal with issues but solely issues between brokers and brokerages. The SEC approved S.R.O. FINRA, the FINANCIAL INDUSTRY REGULATORY AUTHORITY, as the only SRO to adress broker/brokerage problems. Investors were deceived by a dispute resolution forum Wall Street set up with Congress.  FINRA took on disputes with FINRA dues paying members and investment advisors and investment clients.

FINRA is a 501 c-6, a category the IRS requires to collect dues from its SRO members. Clearly, FINRA's DRS forum investment complaints of financial and criminal behaviour are forced in to, is not a neutral arbitration.

The presentation I made to Maxine Waters team and others was 'think Eric Garner, I cant breathe and think Wolf Of Wall Street. Eric was part of the system the first time he was arrested- fingerprinted, mug shot taken, jailed, loss of civil liberties, forced to check a box. Wolf of Wall Street, Madoff and Radio Talkers the SEC is charging are never reported to local, state and most often not to Federal Law Enforcement. The Wall Streeter's fingerprints are not taken, their mug shots are not taken. The Wall Streeter's crimes are expunged or adressed as regulatory crimes- meaning fines and disbarrment then let back in to the Fiduciary of other people's money without having to report their priors of stealing.'

FINRA expunges crimes so Ed Markeys Brokercheck is worthless. From 1963, NASD/FINRA knew that Madoff sold no product. No one told cops. No one warns potential victims.

The President's commutants went to jail.  Criminals of Wall Streets kept working,/harming more investors. Eric Garner had to plead 'guilty or not guilty.' Madoff turned himself in saying 'without admitting or denying.'  

Read my piece. ttp://www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com/congress-created-madoff.html  Look at the screengrabs. I will tell you the reforms others are weighing seriously. Documents speak volumes.

Congressman Ellison's Bill is criminal justice reform.

COMMENT FILED IN "THE HILL"

Judge Chin wrote he gave the Authors Guild a chance to make their case. Thanks for nothing Authors Guild.

The case the Authors Guild has made is that every industry relying on retained lawyers, lobbyists and membership organizations needs to look twice, make that three times, on what you are getting for monies expended.

The failure of this case extends past the Authors Guild. This appellate loss extends with impact to ARTS content creators. While it is easy blame the Authors Guild lawyers, lobbyists and membership organizations, the finger pointing is at the membership of the Guild that trusted their leadership, lawyers, lobbyists and membership organization to do right by them.

ARTS content creators pay money they may not be able to personally afford to retain those to represent creative interests in Congress. Most ARTS content creators, willing to pay monthly float with no guarantee on a job done, work on spec with no guarantee of payment, beggaring the question why ARTS content creators treat lawyers, lobbyists and membership organizations better than they treat themselves. You work on spec, pay lawyers, lobbyists and membership organizations on spec, a piece of the profit, just like agents are paid. No profit. No pay, to separate the wheat from the chaffe. Make that, the wheat from the shaft.

Thanks but no thanks Authors Guild, with your precendent setting hurdle you have created for every other ARTS content creating industry... as Martin Neimoller said ".... first they came for... and then they came for me..."

You, yes, you, pointing at you..... your industry is next....

JESSICA ALBA & WALL STREET FIDUCIARY

One word, Fiduciary.

Ms. Alba did not invest well. Her IA, investment advisor did, she hopes.

Kevin & Kyra trusted their IA, too. The system hid their fiduciaries breach for 50 years, less of a draw, not a failure in humanity but #*%t happens, and I mean, theft not the other )@*t word.

I have become an evangelist against Fiduciary Breach. I did not choose to be so. Like I wrote earlier, @*#t happens. Three times to me. Nor would I have learned the details I share had the SRO not gone one step too far branding me in Bad Faith hoping that would shut me up.

I actively built a crime analysis lab, the first of its kind on the continent. When I moved past being ill to fighting to clear my name I reverted to training, backing away from trusting, only to learn and break myths that Wall Street has perpetuated, starting with a big one.

Bernard Madoff told the truth. "They" knew. Now? Courtesy of me, documented.

In the least, Joyce, your mag needs a column correcting our perceptions of the strangers we turn our lives over to, and, the fact the odds are against us, a sliver of reality, not in our favor.

Ben Bernanke is the problem. Alan Greenspan. Janet Yellen are the problem, too, along with all Think Tank totties playing, for a salary with O.P.L., other people's lives.

IF they knew what they were doing they would have gotten America ahead of the collapse instead of doing the DC Think Tank Dance of ideas that if the idea works, makes the Fed Chair look good but if the idea does not work, gives the Fed Chair the boot scoot boogie opportunity to say 'workin' on it.'

Working on it is not the answer for the every day person believing the country is being led, not a living experiment playing catchup rather than being predictive.

That Bernanke is at Brookings says everything about his years heading the Reserve. Better question for Senators to have asked Ben should have been "What Think Tank Will You Join When You Leave The Reserve"... n'est ce pas?

The financial Radio Talker stories circulating the internet are but a pimple on the face of a teenager when it comes to the quantity of false fiduciaries harming not only their clients but your industry.

There are good fiduciaries. At root fault of the problem, I tell legislators, is Congress that wrote the laws without getting the client's experience understood, then followed by Congress having Think Tank economists fresh out of high school testify or cited in Congressional hearings.

FINRA is the unclarified burr under the saddle of investment clients and investment lawyers and investment advisors. I bring documents that clarify what FINRA is. I bring emails FINRA execs sent me. I bring more.

My presentations are inarguable against my experience, the experience of other investment clients railroaded in to a forced FINRA arbitration.

 Legislators I engaged with before, during and since Congressman Keith Ellison brought my experience to legislative light with Bill HR 1098, the Investor Choice Act, are listening attentively. The most important thing constituents can do when talking to Congress is to get their facts right. That means stop quoting FINRA's self descriptive website.

Do your diligence. Know your papers and for god sakes, go to the police first and then a lawyer. Well, if you car got stolen you would call the cops so why not here too, otherwise the stats on Financial Crimes is skewed. And for sure, FINRA isnt reporting to police the complaints they expunge. How do I know? Read FINRA's website and print, baby, print, each page you read.

​I look forward to your magazine interviewing me, the Main Street woman shaking the low hanging fruit on Wall Street.​

Before the big reveal of the name Bei Bei, which means “precious treasure,” according to Zoo Director Dennis Kelly, Mrs. Obama and Ms. Peng were treated to a song in Chinese by 15 third graders from Yu Ying Public Charter School. That song was “Little Snail.” While the pool and schoolchildren were waiting for FLOTUS and Ms. Peng they got to see Bei Bei up close and personal.

The first ladies were introduced by Mr. Kelly. Your pooler was disappointed by a lack of baby panda sightings but we did see Bao Bao and Tian Tian.

Mrs. Obama she was thrilled to be a part of the panda naming ceremony and said the Obamas love the zoo, including Malia who has done several internships at the zoo. “She comes here often even though you don’t know it, she can now operate undercover,” she said.

She said the reason she’s at the zoo is because “we want young people like you to keep doing what you’re doing,” including connecting with people in other cultures and learning new languages. She noted President Obama and President Xi’s one million strong initiative to have 1 million students in the U.S. learn Mandarin Chinese by 2020. “You guys are leaders in this,” she said to the students of the Chinese immersion school.

Mrs. Obama said she hopes students in the U.S. will be global citizens and that one can do that by going on the Internet and exploring and that state visits serve that purpose. “That’s really what we’re doing this week as we host President Xi and Madame Peng,” she said. “What we do in these wonderful state visits is that you get to share ideas with each other.”

Young people are “the best ambassadors that we have,” Mrs. Obama said, adding that knowing another language is an asset and will help them travel the world.

Ms. Peng, through an interpreter, made a joke about pandas being all over metro cards and plastered around the city. She said she was sad she didn’t get to watch Bei Bei’s birth on the panda cam.

“The giant panda exemplifies the common bond between China and the United States,” Ms. Peng said. “We do need more bonds to bring the people of our two countries ever more closer and I think the giant panda is one of those bonds we can celebrate to achieve that goal.”

She said Bei Bei was adorable. Ms. Peng and Mrs. Obama unrolled scrolls to reveal the name, Ms. Peng’s tied with a yellow ribbon and Mrs. Obama’s tied with a blue one. The students’ shirts had blue and yellow logos on them, a complementary touch. The kids cheered and the event was over.

The South Carolina Church shooting is the alleged reason several race war attempts have been sparked.

I did diligence visiting the shooter Dylan Roof's website. As you recall the pics of Roof were taken by another person. Roof's name appear(ed) nowhere on the site. Roof did not sign the racist rant. The site tracked to being registered out site of America, most particularly to Russia. Registering a US based site in Russia is not where a US site should be registered, in a matter of speaking, a violation of ICANN rules of compliance under the US Department of Commerce IANA contract that ICANN has operated since 1998 when President Bill Clinton established ICANN as the private non-profit that will control that Root Server.

President Clinton, at the same time he sanctioned converting US Military programming oversight to private profiteering oversight had also approved TOR, the anonymity too. Screengrabs on SC shooter can be seen here www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com

The move to give control of the Internet to the United Nations has been going on since 1998 when Bill Clinton, Ira Magaziner and All Gore advanced the goal to take the IANA function to Geneva. Bill Clinton approved the establishing a Friends With Benefits organization called ICANN that was funded by the telecommunications industry. The UN has been behind the telecommunications industry since 1858, the ITU. Vint Cerf announced that American taxpayer funded IANA function, a former military tool, is leaving America 9/2016 just before the elections. IANA was predicted in 1998 to become a trillion dollar money generating entity. IANA? It is that function that converts the names we give our domains into the numbers the Internet uses to let the domains link and communicate.

When IANA leaves just before the elections, the chaos we are  currently experiencing on the Internet, hacks, etc. will get worse. All those hacked ID's and hacked fingerprints will then be able to be manipulated in to "people" who never existed except a virtual world will make it look like they do.

I invite you to read my site. LINKEDIN, too, to stay on top of ICANN & copyright chaos. Look at the screengrabs.Then think twice the next time you and tech ...'touch'

Lord Stone of Blackheath, hello

I am aware you are keynote speaker at an upcoming ARTS fashion event in the UK.

I am a former member NUJ, returned to America where I covered the White House and Capitol Hill for almost a decade. I focus now on ARTS protection from IT that takes our ARTS IP, ID and commerce.

​ You are on the Science & Technology committee.​ I am bringing to your attention a specific incidence that took place here in DC, of an IP theft of a Welshman, David Slater.

Monkey photographer Welshman David Slater spend time and money to take his photo known as the monkey photo. The "selfie" that David spent a long time to facilitate happening was stolen globally. David's story of not getting paid is the story of many ARTS content creators struggling to make livings.

ARTS content creators are most often not employed. We work, we earn. If stolen from, we dont earn. We are not part of that conversations of JOBS/living wage/minimum wage. We are citizens of countries we live in. We dont get the benefits asylum seekers get.

When two foreign legislators and the Think Tank pounding on doors for them, use your citizen's image on leaflets, website, emails, etc, more tragically, at an event talking about Intellectual Property, you cannot keep silent.

Legislators and Parliamentarians are held to the same standard that David and I and Dotcom are held to. You cannot stay silent. Stealing our IP is no different than kidnapping. Our lives are held hostage to our abilities to make our livings.

Here are pieces I wrote on this event.
AMERICAN LEGISLATORS JOIN TOGETHER AT A CAPITOL HILL BRIEFING USING "SELFIE MONKEY" WITHOUT AUTHORIZATION (c) Carrie Devorah  (http://www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com/2d-ip-arts-intellectual-property-theft-online.html )

​ The global theft of David's monkey, of my IP, is made possible because of the US IANA function managed by ICANN. I recommend you search ICANN and IANA in my site too. According to NTIA insiders, the decision is made. IANA is leaving 9/2016 the US to Geneva. This is bad.

If you think the coordinated chaos we are experiencing is bad, let me tell you, it is getting worse, faster. We are learning that "delete forever" means deleted until someone uses that information in a nefarious fashion....

Something can be done is what I share with my readers, enforcement and legislators. Step 1, is knowledge. Did you know the United Nations ran the .af country code for the Taliban back in 1992? 

I will gladly brief you if there are questions you want answered on my research/documentation of this concern. My research involved locating the founding documents. Think Terrorism. Without ICANN issuing TLD's for domains one could not abuse the internet tool was we continue to witness the devolution before our eyes.

Sir, I read you are on the business committee. Search, on my site "Madoff." FINRA knew in 1963 Madoff sold No Product. You will find those screengrabs on my site I believe you will find of interest.​
​ As I began my letter for you and your committee(s) to read, David Slater deserves his royalties as do I and every ARTS creator and individual you speak for. I look forward to our meeting in person.

No no no, the premise of all of these arguments is wrong. 
It isnt a right to be forgotten but that all these entities, search engines and the like, are violating (1) an individual's Right of Privacy, (2) an individual's Right of Publicity, (3) online selling/profiting from another person's photo/identity meets the qualifications of Human Trafficking (dont disagree with me- the honcho from State and the guy from the EU looked at me and said, 'you know, I/we never thought of it that way before." I said, "you should." 
 
The fact is all of these entities using our life details on line are supposed to secure permission from us first. These details can exist in the papers in the court forums they are found in BUT we are talking that our lives taken by 3rd parties are posted online to make money off of us. End of story. 
 
Let me ask you, if posting sordid details of lives online is ok, then why did Google exec Eric Schmidt have his lovers spilled secrets removed.  
 
The Google model is put it online then see who complains to take it down. I guess what is good for the gander isnt what Schmidt wants cooking his own goose. Fair and even, court papers, mug shots et al put online break the law. 
 
ICANN/IANA/the Department of Commerce are the ones responsible for this chaos called the internet we are subject to. Delete should mean delete, not delete than be brought back for a 'memory' model.  
 
The ultimate finger is pointed to the Oval office, 1992-1998 that permitted the USG military model academics worked on to become a private non profit with predicted trillion dollar profits it is racing towards making. 
 
It is important to remember that everyone is entitled to their day in court, not paraded online for mob derision. If you think it is bad now, it is pre-planned to get alot worse.... happy Monday 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Emails are never gone. If Google doesnt have them on a server somewhere (in a foreign country or may even a boat, then the many other opportunities will have the email history.

Moreso important are the few words my former industry called journalism missed, that Mrs. Clinton said Bill set her up, techwise, that is, if diligence is done to know the programs state gave grants to, encouraged and supported, ie. TOR, the Onion Router that created what I call "Rabbit Holes" the ability to enter at one place and exit some unexpected other place ie enter from home shore USA and exit ie. France, Middle East, etc and not be connected via the "rabbit holes." Rabbit Holes were facilitated by using others ID/ISPS. The TOR group says use of those 2nd party IDs, that were strung together like a do-si-do, that some were intentionally  loaned while others had no clue, to this day, that their name might be the name credited for causing an uprising. Remember how the facebook employee was alleged to have caused the Arab Spring.

The Feds eventually caught Silk Road's innovator. Eventually.

Back to Bill- TOR and ICANN came from his Oval. ICANN is that military information that Bill privatized in to the "private non profit" that provides IANA unique identifiers to our domain names- the warm and fuzzies that we rent until we stop paying for them, the ones that used to be just .gov, .org, .mil, .edu, .net and .com. Now? That private non profit company that Bill set up 20 years, in the past few years has gone from a $70 million 'non profit' to a 1/2 billion non profit, seed money taxpayers are not getting back at a time America needs it. Thanks CHAI

I got the PAYDAY and ARBITRATION going already with Keith Ellison and Al Franken. They stepped up to the plate with Bill HR 1098 after I brought them my experience with Forced FINRA arbitration. (http://www.centerforcopyrighti...

Bill HR 1098 makes forced arbitration of investment clients unlawful. I showed how investment consultants pretend to be brokers to go in to a FINRA DRS arbitration. I showed how FINRA is NOT a DRS forum for investment clients and investment consultants. The SEC knows that FINRA should not be overseeing investment client disputes.

Congress' laws state the SEC was to set for oversight of Brokers and Brokerages yet no one for decades has stopped these crimes against Main Street who are (1) told to sign confidentiality agreements and (2) drawn in to arbitrations that are signed off on with Settlement agreements that courts are confused to understand. Courts sort of follow the lead of others. Plain simple fact is that FINRA arbitrations are cited to the FAA. Investment clients should be cited to the UCC because the overseeing rules are state by state.

Arbitrations must be held in neutral environments. FINRA is not neutral.

Moreso, FINRA does not vet out the ability of the lawyer who argues for an investment client. Local laws are very clear- a lawyer must be licensed in the local bar or have been granted pro hac vice to appear AND GET PAID for that appearance. No law, federal or otherwise, requires lawyers to put their bar numbers on business cards, emails, letters, pleadings etc. Sure would simplify things for the investment clients and law client if people did their jobs, better yet knew their jobs which few do. Even the attorneys writing the counts against Madoff did not know his crimes of No Product began decades before he turned himself in.

Madoff did tell this truth, "They Knew." Documented. 1963. But Congress wrote the laws for sanctioning and disbarring that the SEC looks the other way on.

To aid the President, Congress has to not write more laws but go back through FINRA's disciplinary actions to 1996 (online) and case by case do what I did when President Obama announced his 46 commutations. Compare month to year and see that a drug crime went to jail while theft of life savings, taking over a client's closed account to run activity in, identity theft etc. got a fine capped at $25K or $100K and a disbarment most often temporary not permanent. Start here.... I made it easier 46 commutants, 46 FINRA disciplinary actions that did not go to jail for crimes against unsuspecting nice people. (http://www.centerforcopyrighti...

Congress should require the SEC/FINRA to publish publicly the names of all FINRA arbitration panelists then access their resumes then cross compare to the local bar that attorney argued in. EVERY case a foreign state attorney argued is a case that a local licensed attorney does not get. Congress must require the SRO to make public each decision, each award of that panelist. WIPO does. Why not FINRA DRS?

Congress should call to task each and every SRO and non profit involved in "investor protection." They are about their members and protection not about the investor otherwise they would have brought these aggregious actions to an end decades ago.

Congress needs to throw out brokercheck in that it fails to disclose (1) it does not disclose that brokercheck is offered by the 501 (c)(6) that the people they are looking to hire or sue is offering (2) Congress must make the SRO that replaces FINRA publicly declare on every promotional material that FINRA is a BUSINESS LEAGUE that FINRA members must pay dues to belong to, a Union, sorta (3) Congress must make that SRO publish ALL data on complaints by investors, civil suits against and by the FINRA broker.

Most important CONGRESS must methodically go through the FINRA records to know of every complaint. Oh. FINRA says once deleted gone forever.

FINRA has deceptively stated it is authorized by a statute of Congress. No. Congress authorized MULTIPLE SROs yet that has not happened. The NASD has not disappeared. The SEC exchanges data for a zero dollar contract with FINRA.

Bill HR 1098 adressed Criminal Justice reform long before it became this sessions hot topic.

I told Congressman Ellison and others, "THINK Eric Garner, "I cant breathe; THINK Wolf of Wall Street." Eric went to jail 11 times. He was part of the system from the 1st arrest. He was mug shot, fingerprinted, jailed, denied his civil liberties, came out a felon who had to check the box then become residivous. Can you blame him?

While the Wolf was busted for something dumb and Bernie turned himself in. I think the SRO's official word was they had no knowledge.

They did.

I invite you to see for yourself. Look at my site. Look at the screengrabs.

Harry Markopolous got it wrong. FINRA, NASAA, PIABA got it all wrong. As has every US Attorney who appears on American Greed after the fact of many people's lives being destroyed.

Complicating all these crimes, is the Internet, overseen by Larry Strickling's DoC ICANN. The flash crashes were tests, not glitches, tests assisted if not orchestrated by the very people Congress wrote laws that protect criminals.

It would be irresponsible to not note there are good advisors, good brokers, good lawyers damaged by all the above. And then there is Congress that writes more laws without grasping how what is on the books fails.... Dodd-Frank does not see the cases where ie. JP Morgan accounts are set up in people's names who JP Morgan confirms that person has never been a JP Morgan client yet.... the account exists despite the requirement the person applying for the account be there in person.

Less laws that work. And a rounding shout out to Bill HR 1098. It is not a law for black or white, Dem or GOP. It is a law protecting innocent people from scum protected by laws Congress wrote in a Pollyana moment that a law=compliance.

I think there is a bridge in Brooklyn waiting to be resold again. Until then, I will walk alongside POTUS on Payday and Arbitration if he gives me the courtesy for having brought, at least the arbitration, to Congress in 2014. They listened.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Larry only gives the tip of the UN iceberg about to hit our Internet Titanic according to Vint Cerf 9/2016. The UN is nothing less than a business league. I write on the UN and its agenda to take the IANA function that Bill Clinton gave to ICANN, the Friends With Benefits company running the gTLDS ( .com, .mil, .gov, . sucks, .forbes - you get the pic).
Rather than rewrite all my data here, I invite you to LINKEDIN and visit my website. Screengrabs are provided to make the argument.

As for treaties.... anyone every watch a hand shake followed with a sucker punch? That is my argument on Treaties. Every mother's son behaves in public...... its what they do out of the public eye.....

There is more to the story that Dylan Roof should be sought to provide data on
1- that website alleged to be Dylan Roof's website bears his name nowhere in the manifesto
2- that website alleged to be Dylan Roof's has been altered since the shooting. Those posed images of Dylan Roof are replaced with an image of a dead white man on the floor surrounded by blood
3- that website alleged to be Dylan Roof's does not have his name anywhere in the ownership of that domain attributed to Dylan Roof
4- that website alleged to be Dylan Roof's is tracked to Russia. The IANA unique name identifier for that site attributed to Roof would show identifiers of the Registry/ site host in Virginia.

No. I do not believe for a second that Russia is behind this tragic slaughter. I do see that someone set this matter up to appear that way. A tool set up in the Clinton Presidency, TOR, The Onion Router, creates 'rabbit holes', the impression that someone is in one place when they are not nor even ever were. TOR was a tool promoted by State in hacks State held in DC. State funded these program's research.

Respecting the pundits that yabber on TV for air time, this is about solving a crime with other parties involved, a step that should be done carefully before Roof dies.

Screengrabs are viewable here  www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com/icann--iana--wipo.html . Look for "The Slaughter In The Church & ICANN."

A legitimate profiler will caution people to look at the photo change to see a message is being sent. There is no question that Roof pulled the trigger but who triggered Roof to set off a race war.

The crime with ASHLEY MADISON begins with misleading users that there were the women in numbers as the impression was given, that those pictured women are real people not just bait click, and that there was every the actuality of privacy in an internet world where every communication is kept by Google making the representation that taken down info would remove data. THAT would fall under regulatory infractions which the FTC has to be called to task for. That said, Barnum said a sucker is born every day.

At ground zero, is wires were used for the fraud which makes this a RICO consideration, along with interstate and international criminal oversight. I would say the way this is building, Ashley Madison exec and staff problems are just beginning. All staffers can be drawn in as accessories to any crimes that law enforcement may decide upon. See something, say something rings as rule for online fraud. It isnt just for terrorism.

The domain company and registries are culpable too. Without their providing the domain the Internet fraud might not have occurred or in the numbers it has happened in which, if a lawyer was doing his/her diligence would turn the finger at the managers of the IANA function who failed in assuring compliance to laws.

And where that finger then points to? Another time....

BTW, baitclicking of photos? Been going on along time on dating websites

The on air murders of Alison Parker & Adam Ward is the edge of the cliff for the industry. Reporters have shifted from reporting the news, to being part of the news, in this senseless scenario, they are the news.

I do refer colleagues back to the JOURNALISTS CREED. That is what journalism is all about. Not twitter followers, social media pages, fan appearances. My industry began as being a fly on the event wall. Maybe it is time to pause, reflect and take a giant step back
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The violations that may be actionable are Identity Theft and Fraud which would be Title 18 and FTC go-to's. As it is, President Bill Clinton did create an Act to bar such behaviours, that is, after Clinton signed DARPA's domain naming technology over from the military to becoming the private 'non-profit' company called ICANN. President Clinton gave this company that was intended to make trillions over to private interests and possibly 'friends.' The go to place that someone must go to for the Internet domain theft is WIPO in Switzerland. The go to place for online consumer fraud is the FTC. Sadly, the FTC is regulatory in oversight. Anything the FTC does is nominal or ceremonious. The FTC has no enforcement oversight. The FTC can refer these firms to US Attorneys already swamped with Internet theft complaints.

The Tech & Innovations “Think you’ve been hacked? Do this now” column is deceptively redundant to what is already out there in the marketplace guiding readers into the system of go no where calls and time lost. Step 1, call the police. Step 2, call the police, Step 3, call the police. Departments do have Cybersecurity officers and teams on board. Contacting government through websites exposes the email author to future hack victimization. Step 4, reduce your online participation. Nothing beats pencils, paper, write, chew and spit. Fact is that by the time you learn of the hack your identity has been auctioned bought and sold so many times it makes heads spins.

PS. Give China a break. The Internet is an American government invention released on the world that Americans need to understand was released along with Anonymity tools that give the appearance of 'events' being what they are not, circa 1998

THE GETTY: MARION, TRUE...... OR FALSE
A decade ago while working on my pictorial essays www.godinthetemplesofgovernment.com, I identified some items of questionable ownership in a national museum here in D.C. I was barred photographing the images. I was told to buy 'the book.' I did. My reading of the book text suggests my suspicion may be right and the items should be returned, a trend museums are not quick to do.

 Let's be honest, here. As a artist with items in museum collections, museums are little more than glorified Thrift and junk stores with a lot more money to collect, archive, build markets and display all in the name of historical legacy. Value is in the eye of the beholder. Market builders convince the market that time, showmanship and scarcity build value. A cracked pot is a cracked pot until it gets older, more scarce and talked about by people making their living talking about that style of pettiness.

Remember, the world thought Leonardo was a bit 'loony' and Van Gogh died penniless revived as a marketing sensation when hustlers found his backstory and art have commercial appeal.

 The global museum community would do well to identify what each has from each the other's culture then coordinate sharing of that list to vet ownership. The definition of stolen is determined by the property owner, or their survivor(s). No good comes from possessing stolen goods. Possession of stolen property is still possession of stolen property, Marion, true... or false?

REBRANDING DEAD HORSES & IKE
Respecting that former Maryland delegate Michael Barnes wants to revive his dead horse idea of flipping IAD to Ike, it is about time that legislators learn that old ideas might best state that way a lesson for Rep Nadler trying to revive his limiting an artists entitlement on Resale Rights.

It isn't what Michael wants that matters it is what Ike wanted that counts. And Ike's family. Ike was one of those guys that believed that smaller is better.

As with the MLK Memorial, the Eisenhower family were not part of the process of the memorial conception even design until deep in to the process. 

George Washington wanted something simple. GW got a giant obelisk with cost overruns now under threat by repeating earthquake. Ike wanted something simple. $40 million raised to date is under suspicion of use. Instead of crowdfunding a more obscene amount, maybe do the Ike, smaller is better then flip the excess funds towards living memorial purposes ie scholarship, funding vets, etc.

The lesson on the Mall, and off, is the money here today won't be there tomorrow. These expensive memorials cost money to maintain. As is, existing memorials are struggling for operating funds moreso poignant to say as we watch markets tumble and global economies crumble.

Stating the obvious, the emperor is wearing no clothes maybe it's time to start doing what we teach our kids that less is more.... And cheaper.

TECH & DIGITAL DESIGN
Once upon a time, people took magazines with them to the stores when their inner space was being designed. Times have changed. Selfies and smartphone shots have replaced carrying mags to the store. We send the snap of what we want without thinking twice that we may be hit with a lawsuit for digital infringement.

Long live the litigation less age of the magazine. Think before you snap, chat, tweet, click and send.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Your article is well written. Let me share with you questions from Legislators to Witnesses..... would you copyright/patent/trademark your work....

The answer was a resounding no.

Let me explain.... what a person buys is a piece of paper, an expensive piece of paper with no value UNLESS a lawyer takes the case. Most lawyers see little value in the value of the IP. Most lawyers, maybe, took 1 IP class in law school.

The fact is the second we connect our Content online it is stolen. (a) Google has it (b) everyone else does to

So what are you paying money for?

In the grand scheme of things we as the arts community are focused in the wrong direction. We need to focus on the stopping of the IP theft. It is doable.

I invite you to LINKEDIN. I invite you to read my website www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com articles and hyperlinks. I got the first shout outs in the Judiciary for artists and photographers.

This is doable if we do what we do best, lead by design instead of getting lost in the advice of those that led us to where we are today.

Madoff was truthful when Madoff said "they knew." I wrote a piece, several actually, showing "they" knew as far back as 50 years ago that Madoff was selling "No Product." Their are "they's" to blame. The ultimate finger point is at Congress who wrote the rules that allowed a rogue SRO to not turn Madoff and countless other Ponzi' schemers in to law enforcement.

Please visit my site, www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com. Search FINRA, search SEC, search Madoff. Go to the SEC.FINRA drop down click. Look at the screengrabs I posted affirming to you what I learned the hard way that Congress created a Wall Street legality to rob Main Street giving Main Street few recourses to recoup their losses, something I am taking steps to do with Bill HR 1098, the Bill that makes forced arbitration of Investment Clients against the law.

If you feel so inclined, please LINKEDIN. Documents tell the story... IP, ID, IT concerns online that are ramped up with the onset of the Internet one world...

The IRS people are doing jobs guided by the rules Congress writes. It starts with Congress. And it starts with filers. The IRS has in its hands the papers that filers filled out, in the case of non-profits, the papers that define the mission of the non profit. If that non profit mission changes, ie. Planned Parenthood expanding its mission from reproduction to selling of fetal tissue, the onus is on that non-profit to advise the IRS of the change towards the end goal of reapproval. If, ie. PP, does not secure approval from the IRS, then the non-profit is potentially deceiving donors.

The details are in the papers... Congress' and the applicants. One would need to see the original non profit papers to make a proper determination of a non profit worthiness. That said, there are bad apples in every corporate entity, community, home and relationship. Those bad apples should not tarnish the others doing their jobs.

An FYI, heads up where Congress created yet another problem that Congress is not correcting nor adressing, is the proliferation of (dot).org's on the Internet that are not actual non-profits just using the TLD, the Top Level Domain, the ending.

20 years ago, President Bill Clinton authorized the IANA be under a newly hatched entity that used government tax paper paid for technology. The rules were clear...

.org (dot)(org) was restricted TLD's for non-profits. Greed got in the way of oversight. The .org (dot)(org)TLD is being 'rented' (no you don't own them) to people who (1) bought them to block use of their trademarks/brands and (2) bought them mislead people in to assuming this .org (dot)(org)was legitimate.

The fact is, anyone can report a suspect non profit to the IRS who will compare that non profit's paperwork to the laws Congress wrote that rule how the IRS does it work. It is the modern day adage of "see something, say something" as is what most likely happened with the conservative non profits at root of this issue.

Either (a) write a column or (b) report someone, understanding that reporting people doesnt stop their bad behaviours. Most often, the bad people will continue doing their bad behaviours, elsewhere and more cautiously....

The Princess & The Peon

The proof of a cook is in the pudding as the expression goes and the proof of princess's Margaret's friend is after her death in the disloyalty shown when letters from Princess Margaret to Sharman Douglas, daughter of a former Ambassador to London surfaced in the Daily Mail, courtesy of a royal memorabilia collector, unnamed.

Liable at this time is the Daily Mail, and others for publishing the intimate letters of Princess Margaret, violating Copyright Law alongside its Rights of Publicity and Privacy. The basic tenet of Copyright Law amongst the 100+ signatories to the Berne Convention is that Copyright protection begins at moment of creation, continuing, in America for 70 years post the person's death.

Any argument that tinges on Fair Use fails before beginning, more-so, when suggesting that Princess Margaret being born in to royalty denied her privacies. No. Being born in to royalty should have guaranteed her loyalty, as said John Turner, "she was always brilliant, loyal to the hilt to her friends."

Considering a letter, dated May 16, 1966, names John Turner, one hopes Turner will take up the mantle of action against the 'friend' that sold the Princess' IP. If not I life then in death, her honor will be fought for. John..... A step for Maggie's, in these days of loss of privacy, is a step for us all.

The ground zero for the Internet as a vehicle for 'music videos' and film 'teasers' that terrorists are using is US based and linked in to the United Nations.

The Internet began as a military program under ARPA then DARPA  then made into a private company under President Clinton along with TOR, The Onion Router, program  used to Anonymize online 'rabbit burrowing' covering up trails through complex routing and underground railroads.

President Clinton privatized the valuable tool IANA back in 1998 when Clinton permitted for a Newco to be formed then renamed ICANN, currently Califoria based where it has exploded from a $70 million 'non profit' to about 1/2 billion anticipating to reach in to the trillions from its domain management.

Without the California based ICANN policy's, under the US Department of Commerce the video would be a non conversation Its about data gathering. The UNDATA wants the info   www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com  (search ICANN, IANA, TOR, United Nations)

Carrie Devorah’ added Go Set A Watchman should never have been published. Also, there is no Santa Claus. Sorry kids: Jamie, The timeline isnt stacking up. The regs and fiduciary dont match. Tonja leaving two strangers alone in a bank with Alice Lee's safety deposit box should raise eyebrows and rancor. A response from a reader is already up to 40 pages. I am thinking e-book with documents that tell more to the story. Until we all hear from Harper then..... it is detective work
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I took time to look at the website attributed to Roof. The photos of him taken by a 3rd party are removed. A white man in blood is downed to the ground. The rant has no signature. I traced the website. A website from SC should be registered to a North American registry. This site is not. This site is traced to a Russian registry. Do I believe that Russia is behind this? Not at all. My past two years have been focused in the loss of IP ownership and income due to Internet intentional disruption (their word). Bottom line, it is Union Busting in the basest of illustrations. Two programs, TOR and ICANN/IANA were military programs the Clinton administration privatized and released. TOR, as you will read, is a masking tool used from 1998 to present date even by STATE. TOR makes it look like 'you' may be the name that comes up when a foreign government is disrupted or employee details hacked from OPM. TOR means the dwindled purported experts at the agencies have to work harder to figure out the Who-Dunnit and Why. The why is often easiest to understand. Sadly 9 innocent people we all would have liked to call friends were murdered. And sadly, there is a race to tear down history rather that to understand the tools used. Sadly 
 
Go look at them, the screengrabs. Note, that IANA is named. IANA is that small little nothing noone but insiders are talking about publicly. IANA is that program that allows you to name your websites warm & fuzzy names rather than the numbers that your domain name actually is.  
 
The UN wants to take IANA out of America to Geneva by 9/2016, according to Vint Cerf the granddad of the Internet. Twitter-Bloomberg hack, Roof murders in SC... Hillary's name stolen by cyber thieves. ISIS using the net.... if it is this unmanageable now, does America really want IANA to leave US oversight.  
 
Isnt it about time to finger point where this all began... sadly,

COMMENT ON: http://www.insidesources.com/the-key-to-keeping-the-internet-free-after-the-iana-transition/


The documents show that abuse of the IANA function is rampant and unadressed. Hillary and thedonald sued for their trademark protection at WIPO. Jon Postel's RFC's said Trademarks could not be used. The Registries policed by ICANN knew better than to 'rent out' those domain names. But they did. ICANN did. The Department of Commerce did not remove the contract from ICANN.

Then there is the playing of games with the new TLDS that ICANN is dumping in to the system, the TLD that will let anyone buy a shanetews.xxxx or shanetews.porn or shanetews.sucks, using the TLD's that Taylor Swift's team bought to protect their brand.

There isnt enough money in Taylor's world to protect her brand with all the TLD dumping that ICANN is doing at a megaprofit bearing to the billion(s). Bloomberg got used to hurt the TWTR stock. Someone not Bloomberg bought .market deceiving people that Bloomberg.market was therealbloomberg, so to speak.

Then there is "the website of the SC church shooter." His name is nowhere on the site. Pics taken of him were. That site tipped to Russia, not to Virginia where his registry should have been registered with.

It was at AEI that Steve Crocker part of the IANA team decades ago and now Chairman of ICANN had said that ICANN has nothing to do with copyright. Oh my, it has everything to do with Copyright, Identity, trademark busting and $$$ theft.

Should America let go of IANA? Absolutely not. The question I have is why is AEI pumping for IANA to go to Geneva? AEI is about American Entreprise not about UN/Geneva enterprise.

How is AEI going to be rolling when someone buys the .TLDs they stick to AEI's name? What then or will it be too late in that AEI pushed to take this goldmine away from American taxpayers to Geneva and under the UN?

I put my proofs of statements on to my website to let people see this issue in black and white. Put up your proofs of statement.

Sincerely

Then there is "the website of the SC church shooter." His name is nowhere on the site. Pics taken of him were. That site tipped to Russia, not to Virginia where his registry should have been registered with.

It was at AEI that Steve Crocker part of the IANA team decades ago and now Chairman of ICANN had said that ICANN has nothing to do with copyright. Oh my, it has everything to do with Copyright, Identity, trademark busting and $$$ theft.

Should America let go of IANA? Absolutely not. The question I have is why is AEI pumping for IANA to go to Geneva? AEI is about American Entreprise not about UN/Geneva enterprise.

How is AEI going to be rolling when someone buys the .TLDs they stick to AEI's name? What then or will it  be too late in that AEI pushed to take this goldmine away from American taxpayers to Geneva and under the UN?

I put my proofs of statements on to my website to let people see this issue in black and white. Put up your proofs of statement.

The Princess & The Peon

The proof of a cook is in the pudding as the expression goes and the proof of princess's Margaret's friend is after her death in the disloyalty shown when letters from Princess Margaret to Sharman Douglas, daughter of a former Ambassador to London surfaced in the Daily Mail, courtesy of a royal memorabilia collector, unnamed.

Liable at this time is the Daily Mail, and others for publishing the intimate letters of Princess Margaret, violating Copyright Law alongside its Rights of Publicity and Privacy. The basic tenet of Copyright Law amongst the 100+ signatories to the Berne Convention is that Copyright protection begins at moment of creation, continuing, in America for 70 years post the person's death.

Any argument that tinges on Fair Use fails before beginning, more-so, when suggesting that Princess Margaret being born in to royalty denied her privacies. No. Being born in to royalty should have guaranteed her loyalty, as said John Turner, "she was always brilliant, loyal to the hilt to her friends."

Considering a letter, dated May 16, 1966, names John Turner, one hopes Turner will take up the mantle of action against the 'friend' that sold the Princess' IP. If not I life then in death, her honor will be fought for. John..... A step for Maggie's, in these days of loss of privacy, is a step for us all.

APPLAUDING THE JURY DECISION IN THE MATTER OF MARVIN GAYE v WILLIAMS AND THICKE

Parodying without permission and attribution is Theft.

That Pharrell and Thicke are not being charged civilly with Theft, is their luck but maybe not... yet. Theft is theft is theft.

All it should have taken was a phone call by themselves or a member of their entourage to seek permission, OR, heavens, they could have been original and made up their own music rather than tailgating on Mr Gaye's musical babies. There isnt enough money in the world that can repay a victim of theft 100%, of being violated.

Plagiarism, parody.... call it what you will but a duck is a duck is a duck...

The 'next' to be gone after once Parodying or "glowing" on someone else's talent is adressed will be the meme's.... blatant theft of artists work and Identity and done without permission -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PATENT OR TRADEMARK A RECIPE
For 'soul' ownership, you would have to ask an even Higher Authority.
As for 'sole' ownership, it depends

1- of the page itself, the recipe photo, etc. that would be a copyright. UNLESS you want to toss money away, dont register it with the copyright office until you have to sue. It is a numbers game of potential infringment versus actual really happened infringement. RoC registering is upwards of $65. IF someone actually rips the recipe off then you can expedite registering it with the RoC. I have spent more money than one can shake a stick at and wished I had the money back. Do the poor man's copyright. Send it in an envelope to yourself notating somewhere for your reference, a code, so you know what it is in the envelope. Dont open the envelope up until needed. Cancellation by the USPS is what you gain. The USPS is a agency of the US government.

2- A patent is a 'bring it on' challenge. Once your patent is published, others then know what you did to create it AND that begins the gold rush to use your time invested in to their springboarding off your idea. A patent would be for unique ingredients and/or a combination of ingredients. This link will help you. As the wiki says, nothing is new that hasnt been done before.

3- Trademark.... not worth it anymore. Domains and ICANN have decimated Trademark protection. With thousands of domain potential "collisions" as ICANN calls stealing your Intellectual Property for a clone domain that can end up under .xxx or .porn etc..... best answer here is let your legislator know this ICANN thing is bad

Lesson from me? Really think hard before you spend the money. Hobby or business model. As for your recipe? Ever hear of Colonel Sanders? Loose lips sink ships. Make EVERYONE you introduce it to sign a confidentiality agreement.

Hope this helps...

GUIDICES INCARCERATIONS
Reality TV stardom comes at a price in a social networking media world. The decision against the Guidices is a Canary In The Coal Mine for all reality stars overwhelming networks as well as being a lesson for everyday people posting online in a generation developing Image Matching Apps, putting "public information" online, taking our Identity''s, Aliases, and IP, Intellectual Property grabs ie. Google Image walls and Facebook's grab of our content making the ISP's and Tech giants the largest Image and Content Morgues in the world. Where they use our names, our content we will never know. We cant. The risk? Others may use this data in ways we dont know of and culpable. The Guidices, though, knew.

The Judge's decision IS reality TV at its most raw illustrating the High Price Of Living In The Public eye.

COMMENT AT US CHAMBER OF COMMERCE IP FORUM
There is no minimum wage for people with jobs
Entrepreneurs are self employed
When are you instituting a minimum wage for freelance self employed entrepreneurs

The BLS, Bureau of Labor Statistics, issues a weekday Unemployment report
It also releases an Entrepreneurs report the last time being 2010, coincidental to the small business VA funds matching program. That 2010 study showed American Entrepreneuri,s is at its lowest since 1994
ICANN- the explosion of gTLDS is destroying trademarks and existing domain ownership. Litigation is exploding. What are you going to to to protect our investment in to .com's from becoming .porn and .wtf

HOW COULD GCHQ DIRECTOR ROBERT HANNIGAN GET THIS SECURITY ISSUE SO WRONG

I am not phased, Not anymore, Robert. If you think Facebook, Snowden, are the root of terrorism evil then it is time for you to step down or for you to hire me to get you ahead of the Issue. No singular Social Network is at fault for the explosive use of the Internet for Theft or dispelling Incitement or spewed hate. A singular entity is. And that entity is up to even more "no good."

ICANN is the cancer to cut out. ICANN has been on a 15+ year trajectory to slip IANA out of America's Department of Commerce control. Without ICANN there would not be the emerging tsunami of gTLD confusion beginning to boil over.

A gTLD you ask?

Try this on, matey.

Your GCHQ ISP is
www.gchq.gov.uk? Not for much longer. You used to block by buying with .net or .org? Starting December of last year, you lost that control. ICANN is selling gTLD's destroying trademarks and global commerce. Your department doesnt have enough Euros in your diminishing budget to buy all the gTLD's ICANN has been selling like .wine, .wtf, .luxury.

Down your pipeline, if you want a prediction from this trained CCIA? You may see
www.gchq.gov.uk become www.gchq.gov.isis, or .qatar or .whatever-you-pray-it-would-never-be-but-have-no-control-of

You want to do something? Do it fast. Stop IANA from leaving America and shut down all the gTLDS, the thousands ICANN has been selling, each one a potential abuser of your gTLD or a potential component in Terrorism, hate mongering, online bullying, incitement and fraud.   

​Move, matey. FAST!!! 2015 is looming.​

KIERA & THE CAMERA

Kiera's complaint about photographers and edits to her body is, in fact, another conversation, completely. Contracts were signed between Kiera and her people with the photographer and/or magazine that published shots of her.

Kiera's contract delineates the dos & dont's Kiera's team agreed to the magazine(s) doing to Kiera. No clause giving permission to edit Kiera's body then  Kiera does have lawyers in her entourage one hopes are schooled in contracts and law. Don't be surprised if Kiera has lawyers who dont know the laws violated if no clause allows Kiera to be stretched and stapled and shortened and plus...

Most lawyers do not pay attention to state laws on Rights of Privacy and Publicity. I am not a lawyer. I do pay attention. I am a Content Creator.

Kiera is bright. Kiera, read your contract. If your contract does not give permission to bend, fold, spindle or mutilate then make your statement  public and in the courts. As for the unauthorized users of your photos stolen on the internet who give you body morphism? Am working on that answer too. It is a doozy.

A hint on who your industry must adress to mitigate your being forced to adress exploding violations of your Rights Of  Publicity and Privacy online?

shhhh....Yes ICANN.

​Our content is under assault as never before impacting solopreneurs and small business owners we ARTS creators are. I brought to Congress the voice of the art creator. I am not a lobbyist. I am paid by no one. I want our royalties we worked hard for investing time and money into our beginnings at Pratt.

I am that one voice that makes a difference in Congress people say doesnt exist. My voice exists. Legislators are getting as solopreneurs without standard jobs we do not get unemployment checks or such. The Tech assualt disrupting our passioned career hurts us differently than someone who gets a job. To us, theft of our art is like losing our babies.

I got Congress to using ONE word to describe the dissemination of our art globally to places we will never hear about. Asked why I succeeded when others paid to lobby dont. I answer 2 reasons (i) i have been marketing my art since graduating Pratt 4 decades ago (ii) one picture is worth a thousand words​. I illustrate our reality in words, I paint facts.

I repeatedly repeatedly repeat when I write of the relationship between the government agencies and Congress. I highly recommend you linked to me on LINKEDIN. I got the USPTO attorneys on record at a prior UPSTO event clarifying what I was patently aware of and alarmed by... USPTO attorney do what Congress tells them to do. End of story. No magic nor mystery.

It is coy to write I hate being the Grinch who stole Xmas but.... better to be blunt and truthful for us to protect our assets, our IP and ID.

Remember the movie? The grifter who sold a town a band even if they could not play a note? Well, IANA leaving US oversight under ICANN is not now or ever ready for Prime Time.

ICANN, a self declared non-profit, is rolling $$$ selling GTLDs. GTLD? .com, .gov. ICANN is planning global (dot)(anything). IANA devastated the value of our Trademarks. cocacola.XXX was the least of Coke's problems under ICANN. It is now going to be cocacola.dog, .NZ, .porn. No entity will be able to afford "blocking" domain protection as we did early on.

IANA is paid for with American tax payer dollars.

NO project built with our tax dollars should ever go private. All government employees, of which Crocker was, should be required to sign
(a) confidentiality agreements
(b) agree that all data remains the property of their employer, We The People
(c) they are barred with a non compete clause.

Have an idea to do it better? Pitch it to the Feds and get paid a royalty. But to take an idea out of America's control with no guarantee of protecting us, security already shown to be insecure (duhh, I have a bridge to sell you).

I asked Crocker simple questions at AEI. I got no answers
(i) where is 1net.org, tied to Crocker/ICANN listed as a non profit
(ii) Crocker's Shinkuro.com- how it will benefit from IANA removal from the US govt.  Crocker chairs ICANN's Board. Crocker said ICANN's Board knows.

Crocker told another questioner IANA's nothing about IP. 'xcuse me? ICANN, IANA, whois.com are ALL about IP.

A trademark owner/Content Creator, I dont care if ICANN knows. I want to know. I want answers. And in my world when someone avoids answers? Something is brewing.

Ask the French, the Brits and other legislator against IANA leaving to ICANN. IANA leaving American control is an International incident far worse than ISIS.

IANA stays.

Diane Rehm owes it to Small Business owners and Freelancers to put Google/Eric Schmidts toes to the fire on Intent To Steal Intellectual Property, Identity, & Commerce through creation of Alias', stalking of Users, abuse of Fair Use under alleged defense of Safe Harbor creating obscene wealth for Google while ARTS & Content creators trained to be experts with skills cannot make a living through their Content stolen then hidden offshore out of America or in Haven states something I take Google, Facebook, Yahoo, Baidu and Bing to task on repeatedly raising awareness of this cost to the Entreprenuerial community. It is not about Jobs.

Googles model is about using others IP without payment. Gates said Content is King and must be paid for.

The economy healthiness is about our Intellectual Property protection. Push, Diane, Push. Get Schmidt to explain their TOS demands for Users compliance to IP Protection while Google is now experiencing 30 million Infringement request removals MONTHLY.

There should be not ONE!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Global courts are pushing Tech giants for theft of IP, ID as models for building these titans. Removal of IP is in Google's face with over 30 million Infringement notifications a MONTH. Bill Gates said Pay For Content. Why did Google put the cart before the horse taking Content paying only when pushed to?

ADRESSING USING PERSONAL FOOTAGE FILMED OF A POSED CLASS OF KIDS ON A DISNEY TOUR:

There is always the road best traveled which is to out reach to Disney.

Your concerns are not just Disney but in a posed shot, your concerns are Rights of Publicity and Privacy to each of the featured kids. This is not a news clip. This is posted. Disney is vigilant re its protections. That said, an FYI for us all to listen to..... Mickey's copyright termed along time ago. Through lobbying Congress Disney received special dispensation.

Not cool. I thought is was One for all and All for One.... Oh wait. No. That was the Musketeers....

The upside to asking Disney is avoiding litigation. You may even make a friend

Employee online social network contacts is the rolodex debate updated under Technology. Same issue different decade. An employee's contacts belong to an employer unless both parties state at the interview and signing of the employment agreement that (i) what takes place in "vegas' stays in 'vegas' and (ii) what leaves with Elvis when Elvis the employee leaves the building.

GEHRY & THE IKE MEMORIAL:
1- Quick math, Eisenhower died March 28 1968. Eisenhower's image is protected through 2039
2- Eisenhower;s family owns his name unless Eisenhower assigned his name to the government
3- Building a memorial today is not the same as building a large memorial years back. The financial burden needed to maintain it with increasing cost
4- Memorials are not kid friendly to teenagers touring

AEI'S PANEL WITH SURPRISE GUEST DR. STEPHEN CROCKER:
1- Saying the Internet is open and secure is like saying apples and volkswagons are the same
2- ICANN is opensourced. ICANN has global stakeholders. There is no transparent siclosures on your site who each and every party is
3- How can you gurantee security of American information moreso since ICANN began with Jon Postel's hack in the '90's and ICANN being hacked a month ago. Fadi Chehadi testified ICANN/IANA would not be hacked...
4- ICANN started with government employees who now want to take IANA out of America
5- The Hollerith punchcard machine, which became IBM, began with government employees building a model out of American data given to the government in trust
6- Is this the model Americans are to approve of that data given to the government will be used by government employees who will then take that project out from under government oversite
7- Every country has their own regulators says impossible to require global states to participate
8-
Shinkuro, your information sharing company, what is their relationship to ICANN? How does Shinkuro stand to profit from IANA and your steering ICANN?
9- Where is 1net.org a non profit
10- What is the legal process for settling issues in America with IANA. The web is world wide. Should not have forced arbitration. America is about one's day in court....
11- Who are the Multistakeholders?
12- Pointed out the Comment period is unusually short window, on the average of two weeks

WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE A WOMAN
My answer is colorful and unconventional. I tell women we 'birth em', bake 'em, stitch 'em, design 'em, we just dont have 'em..... balls. And we need them since our gender is slow to stand up, push back, speak up, speak out, without fear of being branded aggressive, masculine, or a B*$&ch..... So I smile and share it isnt about snipping 'em or growing 'em... its about owning 'em... in a testosterone sort of way, its about growing 'em from the inside out.... being ballsy'd with confidence.... that is what I give women.... esteem... self-empowerment, high fives....

WHAT ONE THING WOULD I DO TO FIX AMERICA?

I would shore up ARTS Content creators IP protection. This requires several steps.

I would require all the tech giants to pay the billions in taxes they owe. I would require them to pay reparations to ARTS Content Creators they have been stealing content from. Bill Gates wrote in 1996 that Content is King. Gates also said Content providers should be paid. Given Content creators, back and moving forward, income from their IP would mitigate people struggling to make their livings, and celebrate what built America- innovation. I would make sure stealing content online laws would be tight guaranteeing Fair Use and Safe Harbor would no longer exacerbate online Theft. By mitigating theft, America would be mitigating needs for litigations which would keep more people working rather than supporting lawyers.....

I would, at the same time, bar online collecting and selling of American's ID then selling it elsewhere in the world, by foreign companies with adresses and owners based overseas. I would make sure EVERY online business had a Brick adress in America they have at least one employee at. And I would make sure each online person has at least on person manning phones in America.... after all, how can we fix America if the problem is based anywhere BUT in America. I would make sure every legislator read my website www.centerforcopryight integrity.com established toward these goals.

ART content creation and ID protection is non partisan. It is American

KARGASH TIMES

Search engines ARE the reason there is rampant theft of Intellectual Property. Search engines are not the solution they are the problem. The search engine business model was built upon exploiting human nature to be "social" and share wanting people to "like" them. This was no accident.

The search engines set legislation up upon Legislators who dropped their pants, so to speak, with letting the search engines slip one by with distorted interpretations of Fair Use and Safe Harbor along with Legislators being wow'd by celebrity of the Uber stars and the money that comes with them.

The losers in all of this have been the ARTS community, the Photography community whose loss of Profit from file sharing eclipses that of file sharing and downloading in the music and film industries. No. No one will ever know the true numbers. The crime is anonymous in plain sight.

The other loss is to all of us, global individuals who were groomed in to using the "Free Internet" not knowing we were paying the ultimate price- being Human Trafficked, globally, by people we dont know, will never see or known what they are doing with our lives and our identities.

It is Theft, a violation of Title XVIII of the Criminal Code in the US, and a Violation in member communities signed to the Berne Convention. The Intentional Deceit of the Search Engines is worthy of being adressed in the Hague as an International Crime which it is.

The issue of Airlines is not Ancillary Fees nor of Consumer Protection issues at this point. The issue of Airlines is of Government interference in what is no longer a reality of TOO BIG TO FAIL but rather too big too succeed. I will be writing a more complete piece on this, specifically the merger of United and Continental Airways being the anatomy of what goes wrong when government intervenes going for bottom lines rather than, as I experience first hand, a clash of airline cultures.

It was mindblowing that one could see on my recent flight the stark difference between the United Airlines employees and the employees from Continental.

It was mind blowing to see how foreign regulators are to what goes on in the belly of the beast, so to speak, where the passenger and airline intersect. A culture survives only when it does not cannabalize its own, as the airline industry is doing to its passengers.

My piece I will be writing then posting to my site THE CENTER FOR COPYRIGHT INTEGRITY www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com will trail the experience of customers departing DC to Newark, some staying, some connecting. That was in fact not the case.

Our plane was hit on the runway by a tug truck, hard enough the plane shook threatening to go over, hard enough to require, eventually, all passengers to deplane. Luggage remained on board for those passengers preferring to avoid lines at carousels. Sort of. Luggage for three passengers making noise was removed. Crew failed miserably at connecting to passengers. Those staying in Newark or nearby were ok to wait. Those catching connecting flights were misled as to connecting to flights. Again, I will detail this in the article that will post to my ezine- www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com

Alot was learned. The flight staff in DC failed in Customer relations. Passengers were mismanaged. Rolling terminals should have been brought in ASAP to get Connecting passengers to other flights as not to miss connections abroad. Some destinations have only one flight a day. Ground crew with anxiety in crisis should have been yanked ASAP.

This is for starters. On record is that a plane filled with passengers feared safety when the plane was hit on the ground. NOT on the record is that United Airlines reported the flight problem as an Airtraffic Controller issue. It was not. The plane was hit by a truck. There is a penalty for filing fraudulent papers. This penalty must be followed through with against United.

Passengers learned from crew how unhappy United employees are with their current CEO. Hate would be a kind word after seeing how pained good employees are to having to do a bad job they feel does not reflect them.

To capsulize what will be detailed in the piece I will write and will be illustrated with printouts from emails and some pics, it seems United is gambling as to who will complain demanding customer respect and who will not.

Multiple emails were received from United Airlines "updating" on the plane departure. Crew were guaranteeing connecting flights would be caught they were not. There was no effort to bring courtesy water or food to passengers who were refused being put on connecting flights but were put back on the plane, eventually, sitting in heat without water until eventually the plane could find a slot to take off.

Oh, yes, the plane had to be looked at before it could take off. THE mechanic was called. No, not A mechanic was called but THE mechanic was called. He had other issues to adress before he could get to this United Airlines plane to vet it airworthy. Passengers connecting to other flights missed their flights. There was no outreach to passengers of any courtesy sort. IF passengers complained they were led to customer service reps to rebook new flights. This was in and around 10+ at night.

By the time re-bookings were done, IF passengers complained they were offered a hotel voucher. IF passengers complained they were starved, by this point, they were given a $7 food voucher. Ever buy a coffee in the airport? 7 bucks does not go very far. Customers were told United's CEO orders is that food vouchers and hotel vouchers are for disabled, old and kids, not for other customers. The United reps all said, 'we wish we could do more.' Not with the CEO they currently have.

Of note now, is the bag on the plane scam that takes place. Any bag that cannot be put overhead and is deplaned, goes under the plane FOR FREE, unfair in flights where passengers are penalized for bags sent below. Penalize & charge passengers that want express access carrying bags on board. Let passengers storing bags below go for free.

Do I expect to see United last too long in the airs? In a culture where cheap flights are sought, mmm, for a bit. Long term? Not at all. People may be cheap but not stupid learning more about the culture of airlines through the conduit of the Internet. Remember, give me about a week for me to write my complete illustrated piece... TOO BIG TO SUCCEED
ASK #MRWHEELER
I am monitoring the hearing. I am listening to Wheeler talk. I am 'hearing' the IANA hearing all over again where a man is being asked to give guarantees for what will take place AFTER he leaves this job. I am thinking Facebook that groomed Users to think Facebook was 'free.' It came at a cost, PRIVACY. I am paying attention to the proposed mergers of Comcast and TWC and AT&T and Direct. I am thinking United Airlines and Continentals too big to succeed.

And I think Congress is getting snookered. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice..... been there done that Congress... He cant guarantee you anything much less of an agency that has been stacking with free content theft through the Internet and ISPS pushed by private companies owning and monopolizing the Internet that are not paying tax. If it was dating advice you were giving your daughter, wouldnt you tell her, you are seeing what they are... run or stay but if you stay? You knew what you were getting into, in this case, Congress, you are hurting the people that trust you to protect them. Your constituents ARE the product being marketed and hustled and algorithmed international without oversight that protects.

They are not pirates. Read my article "ONE WORD." It is theft. It appears I have made headway with legislators to get them to ONE WORD to describe the crime. It is a crime.
2- I am sitting here monitoring the E&C committee on provider monopolies. Our thefts are already in places we dont see them. I was overseas. I decided to run a name of someone I found stealing my IP. I got more and different search results.
Look, if you want to make a difference, these forums provide a way to find like minded community. You need to be active and let your legislators know what is going on and file comments when able to that this theft impacts our making our livings. That is how I came to set up THE CENTER FOR COPYRIGHT INTEGRITY. I am in the DC area. I used to cover Capitol Hill and the WH. Our ARTS community was no where in legislators eyes until I began hammering home our reality of theft. You do get heard. I got heard. But these thefts are coming faster and concern for ARTS content creators? I got that started. Speak up to your legislators too. You can link to Congress from my site. I love ARTS creating. But why work for free or spend so much time fighting off or chasing theives. So going forward, no piracy talk. It is THEFT!!!!

Asked What To Do In The Wake Of The Google Books Decision:
Fire the heads of their Unions and Guilds and their lawyers/lobbyists who stood by all this time and did note take the one and only hard line there is- THEFT not Fair Use. And yes, when they complain to me, I tell them it is their fault as it was mine for not knowing this was going on and we stood by. SO, I spoke up and will not back down. We are business people. We take money for our art. Make a point of following the hearings on line. You dont have to be there in person to watch. Any and all people who alleged to have been watching over us need to be kicked to the curb ASAP. We cant do worse than them. We can do better. Trust me. The Legislators asked WHERE ARE THE ARTISTS? Ok, where are we?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is important to understand just because a Circuit judge makes a ruling does not meant that an entity is cleared of wrongdoings when it comes to laws being broken ie.... (whisper) calling taking someone's property under the alleged veil of Fair Use. Fair Use is clearly defined stating IF IT COSTS SOMEONE THEIR ABILITY TO MAKE A LIVING, it is not Fair Use

Responding To Copyright Question Of Donations To A Seminary:
If a family donated the material, unless stated in writing they gifted the Rights, too, you were gifted the material. Public domain is Life+70. Copyright law has a specific definition which is more than anything written down. Title 17 of the Copyright Code. You can also visit my site, THE CENTER FOR COPYRIGHT INTEGRITY www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com I would recommend the Seminary create a "Donation" gift form, which, similar to Money donations states, instead of different amounts, check boxes for [ ] only the physical [ ] rights and [ ] specifics of the rights ie for print, digital, all and or future innovations

RESPONDING TO http://www.smh.com.au/business/online-piracy-crackdown-looms-20140505-37r3g.html

​I read your article. Of course, I would. I founded THE CENTER FOR COPYRIGHT INTEGRITY.
 
I read the ​​lines "News Corp Australia, half owner of pay TV company Foxtel, told Fairfax Media that copyright infringement ‘‘hurts the creative community - it undermines investment, employment, business models and innovation. ‘‘We support the Attorney General’s approach, and while there isn’t a silver bullet, evidence from overseas suggest that such initiatives do work,’’ spokesman Stephen Browning said."

And then I wrote you.

Read my site posting on who the Stakeholders are in pulling IANA out of the US Department of Commerce. Translation- removing Government data outside of the US to a private company... See the name, NEWS CORPORATION, as one of 1net's Multistakeholders, David Fares "David has been Senior Vice President of Government Affairs of News Corporation since January 2011. He is responsible for directing and advocating News Corporation's positions on international media, intellectual property and e-commerce policy and regulatory issues before U.S. and foreign governments as well as international organizations. He served as Vice President of E-commerce and Telecommunications at the United States Council for International Business, managing electronic commerce and telecommunications policy program and services."

Hypocrisy is playing two sides of a sharp sword's edge, one public face, one private face. You told about Murdoch's AU IP/ID/Commerce Infringement side is bad. Now? Tell the rest of the story....do what I do here in DC, let Users/Constituents know the paycheck minions* are either marching with orders to move this Agenda forward or the elevator isnt quite reaching the penthouse suite when it comes to News 'deciders' because what is going down is not good for you or for me...

* Paycheck Minion- delivering Talking Points for Cash to cover their float. No check? Bye. Next...

ADDRESING UK PRIME MINISTER STATING "IP MATTERS:"

IP is what we say when we have to perform a bodily function, it is NOT the sum total of what a Leader should be saying when his countries citizens are being robbed daily of their Identity and Intellectual by anonymous Bad Actors.

What I want to hear is Cameron state there is a difference between Copyrights for Technology and Copyrights For ARTS Content Creators and that PROPERTY which is what it is first discussed under the Magna Carta that became the pre-cursor of the America's Codex is what this is all about and that taking someones Property is plain and simple, criminal and theft! THAT would be impressive. Until this clarification is rammed home as a talking point by attornies, lobbyists, and our own peer communities, at the pace Legislators are walking in lock step with the private companies owning the internet, we are, well..... my mom says be a lady.... I am losing that it seems, we are #**%&!@*

ICANN & IANA AT GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY'S ELLIOT SCHOOL OF BUSINESS:

I am of the opinion there are too many scholars in your organization and not enough average people. Am I to understand that your talking of Russia is a stakeholder and headlines scream. Putin is shaming our president. Are you saying you have the secret sauce to world peace?

The conversation is about American online lives governance being removed from America. The non conversation here is security and copyrights.

Jon Postel was a government contractor who Ms Burr clarified got several operators of root servers to agree to show redirection of servers could be done.
Spam, hacking... is a daily reality you have not solved. Snowden, Manning, Assange, Madoff are the known names proving you, ICANN, will never be able to make any guarantee you have control to assure our online lives will never disappear.

Forced arbitration is unconstitutional. No legal forum has been defined. How and where will you adjudicated for the over 2.8 million and growing stakeholders, the every day people. I will ask you the same question I asked the attorney who helped draft the EU's Unitary Patent. I asked him with global stakeholders, what currency will you be using between someone in US and someone overseas- Bitcoins?

I  want you to adress ARTS Content Copyrights and Identity Rights the incalculable commodity marketed on the Internet. Online ID theft is by definition Human Trafficking. Grooming people to a product without disclosure of the planned strategy is a deceptive practice. Within second of visiting a site, a User is auctioned and bundled globally. There is no popup or other speedbump to stop someone from becoming a marketed commodity or Algorithm, most often by someone internationally. Where are you preventative steps? Where is the Unsubscribe? The Opt Out?

Your comment period windows average two weeks time. Most comment periods are 8 weeks or more. What is your rush?
What about 1net.

Adressing Visual Arts Rights Clawback:

As an ARTS Content creator I disagree with this move. Let me correct your stating
"Visual artists are the only creative individuals denied the benefit of residual income from their works" is factually incorrect. Every artist has the right to craft whatever agreement they want when they sell their art. IF they fail to do so is their doing not to leap aboard the people who invested in them. This  move is dangerous in that it sets precedence for EVERYTHING that was one anyones that is then owned by a second or third party ie. a dog that someone sells that a 3rd party trains that becomes a world champ, a basketball team owner investing in a player then going on to being a world champ. Or the store you bought your paints from claiming a piece for having provided you the tools you create with.

This is Dangerous, dangerous, bad, bad, bad.

Rather than clawing back, the ARTS community would benefit by getting business courses in school as does anyone else.... Write the contract from day one citing those requirements of reporting image ownership. Otherwise?  This is a killer for ARTS Content creators to get angels. Its like a box of chocolate, Ethan. An ARTS Content buyer never knows what they... will get...... Ethan

On IP Audits:
 IP is the most important asset a content creator has that said the rate at which IP is infringed is staggering. Technologies assault on IP flumoxes me in that the crime is done by the private companies running the internet and the world acts as it there is nothing wrong with the criminal activity instead finding ways to accommodate the crime. My site's motivation is teach get IP owners to value their assets.

licensing is an action that is the same for ALL industries. An FYI since I attend these roundtables in DC, the reach to put licensing into one pot is across the board. Next, the reach will be to have all "experts on high tech hardware/software IP" put all their earnings into one pot and last but not least the lawyers who sold all of us down the river will have the same happen to them too. That is how history repeats itself. Must I remind of almost 70 years ago... that famous poem- because no one spoke up... they came for me... paraphrased?

Asked About Wisdom To Share With Others:
Someone fought weeks to arrange a phone talk with me. We finally squared time away. She asked me a question, I will NEVER answer the same. She said, "so tell me about yourself and what you have done" engaging me as I spoke. Abruptly, she said, "you have talked for 20 minutes. What do you want?" At that moment? To get off the phone which I did, politely. As old as I am this taught me a lesson, I will pass forward.... you never know who you are talking with and how they are hearing you. Say less. And IF there is need down road, say more. Until then, put your pebbles out one at a time, saving your most precious stones for last....

RESPONSE TO AUTHORS GUILD FIGHTS BACK:
The initial argument by the Author's Guild councilors was posed badly. This should have been a win. The loss is devastating to all other areas of Content creation in that a saucy lawyer would look to this case for Precendence.

Not every member of the Authors Guild is a Turow who may be so far disconnected from the Author struggling to make ends meet, more of the norm, than the authors who scored big.

At issue is Identity Theft, Right Of Publicity, along with IP Theft by companies misleading in their initial creation and deception used to groom Users into a new medium of communication without laying out a 5 year or 10 year strategy which should have stated "We are going to give you our product for free for a limited time AFTER which when we want to, without prior notice, will then own everything you have put there and, oh by the way, all this time we have not told you that everything you thought you were sending to others, in private and with discretion, well.... NOT!!! we have saved it all even the pieces you started then trash because in our world, of the private companies running the Internet, nothing is ever gone..."

Authors own their name. If the Authors Guild attorney got their Act Together they would sue Google for Identity Theft because it is the name of the Authors that sells those books making them Content Librarians want on their shelves. EACH AND EVERY LIBRARIAN I meet at events discussing IP, has no issue with paying for books for their shelves. This is very important to Remember.

The Internet is a network owned and run by private companies. These Private Companies are taking "Property." The Property, people's images and identities, are sold for profit, without permission, payment and worse, without any control how this is used.

The argument I put before these entities that they have yet to answer back with is IF you think working for free is so cool then you work next week and give me your paycheck. For some reason, these people pushing FREE THE IP, usually then answer...."I didnt think of it that way."

Lets not even adress the Tax Avoidance of companies like Google that is decimating the Infrastructures you live in. Who is going to pay for that library Google is giving digitized books to? You.

The cart is before the horse. ASK FIRST for permission. Dont force people to spend time chasing their IP off Google Books. And know this. What Google is doing is NOT Fair Use. Fair Use states clearly IF YOU PREVENT SOMEONE FROM MAKING THEIR LIVING IT IS NOT FAIR USE. If this is Fair Use then it is ok for me to take your cherished Teddy without your permission? And then sell him for advertising making buckets of money while giving copies of Teddy to whomever.  That is what Google is doing.

What Google is doing is Theft of Property which is the oversight of the Criminal Code.  Does this reframe the argument that was not adequately posted?

The Haribo v Lindt Bear Suit is Disturbing:
 Put the two bears side by side. They are not the same. But the determination that Haribo wants, their claim of infringement is. If they prevail in court, Haribo will find the decision coming back to bite them when they, next, want to do a Bunny. After all a bunny is a bunny is a bunny, that is until it hits the court room and then it becomes Theater of  sorts.

Infringement would be if Lindt had made a skinny pointy nose bear, lean and thin  gesturing with his right paw wearing a read round cornered bowtie. Lindt did not. Nor did countless other bear manufacturers out there in the market place. Haribo cannot sue them all.

The Courts made the right decision. As for Haribo, that money gone to lawyers deep pockets is money that will never be available for more R&D and doing what product development is all about... developing "the next."

Adressing Women Eating On Tube In London:
The point is not having fun by eating more but to realize the photographer broke a basic tenent which is to signal for Permission first, then if given, shoot.

Anything less than that is Stalking and an invasion of one's Right To Privacy and an ID theft along with infringement of Right Of Publicity every person owns. News photographers operate under the tenant that what they do is news. Those pictures posted to Facebook are within seconds scooped up by Bots then bundled, auctioned sold for purposes and places unknown. Techically, and actually, the photographer has now participated in Human Trafficking which is an international crime..... There are Laws on the Books for all of the above. THAT is how the people take a stand

Drawing Outside The Lines:

I was researching a posting for my site THE CENTER FOR COPYRIGHT INTEGRITY. My site is an evolution of seeing the damage Technology is doing to ARTS content creators. I had covered the White House and Congress for a decade. And then one day I moved from being a 'shooter in the well' to becoming a suit in the seats. I was actually seeing who was there deciding our worlds and futures as Content Creators. Professors and lobbyists that Congress listens to. Not us. That is when I began to speak up. Well, to be exact, a professor from Berkley told Congresswoman Judy Chu she had not, in 7 years, brought an artist in to her group deciding what happens to money being made from our ARTS. And then along came Collective licensing and it is going to get worse for us.

More ARTS content creators cannot make livings today. Schools that are not aligned with Technology are not seeing the damage to our ARTS and to our hearts. Something about being a bit right brained and being in DC has our conversation moving forward.

Look, get the word out because our ARTS colleges are dying under Technology taking our IP and Content as it drains our desires to put money in larger pockets, not our own.

I have some ideas. I am read around the world. There is a solution. I will be writing about it next. Read it. Share it. We are entitled to make the same living from our college investments that match a law students 'mortage without a home." Push back for what is being stolen.... Hillary Clinton said it takes a village to raise a child. Well. It took an artist to put the people destroying our world in their place and legislators on notice what is going on. And that it is our spark that designs their worlds. All it takes is thinking outside the box or, in our worlds, drawing outside the lines
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Adressing Fair Use.... what are you willing to risk;
The law is the law. How you decide to act knowing the law is your decision. Each case is individual to the facts in front of the judge. What is your choice and how much are you willing to risk is the question to ask the ones you love. IF your risk is the one that gets sued is that the decision you can live with. So the decision is simple, do what you choose owning that decision however it moves forward. it is that simple

Adressing "Publishers" Who Solicit Industry Targeted "Ads" Alleging The Book Will Get The Word Out:
You all know, one person can make a difference. Take a moment and send an email (1) to the FTC and (ii) to the FCC and (iii) to your Congressman and Senator. You can easily navigate to your legislators through the hyperlink on my site. Write ONE email that shows all four are getting the same email. Nothing works better than letting others know more eyes are watching. Writer you email tight to the point answering the what, who, why/where/when. Let them know you are (a) posting that letter here (b) sending notice of it through social media/facebook/twitter  Feel free to send me a copy. I see Administration all the time around DC. I will pass that email(s) on in person. That is how we make OUR difference. And trust me, I teach them alot. In that while covering news I saw alot of 'players' they dont know about, I ummm l'arn them of our truths

When Orange Does Not Blend In To Grey:
There is something to fear when people dissolve in to their chairs- gray suits, gray backs. It is DC, well actually Alexandria Virginia, close enough in th government culture where everyone wants to be DC hence Greater Washington. Close enough for the somber note of Political Comment. Grey is neither black nor white. Grey is that in between where some aspire to dissolve into

Cant say the same for Orange. I couldn’t have stood out any more had I tried to showing up in so honking an orange sweater that one of the other guests asked if I had LA roots. Perceptive. I do. Twelve years scarred me enough to accept that training can mean everything. My training had me 2 years ahead of the grey suit wearing world predicting color and trend, sort of why I ended up at that PPAC meeting at the USPTO in Virginia.

I am that designer that bridged design before and after the Internet, from the time when ARTS people could control the Intellectual Property to today in a environment fostered by the Administration to enable a Free Internet. Someone forgot to define FREE Internet- as in not paying or as in taking what belongs to others without permission or compensation. Mass interpretation, of course, has gone to embrace the latter. As if that wasn’t enough, Mass Interpretation are pushing together to change the laws that guard Property Rights.

I am pushing back. Someone has to. After all the Wonks and the Lobbyists aren’t. Would you give up a cushy paycheck to solve a matter? Well, that is what Innovative People often choose to do- forgo guaranteed paycheck supporting their 3 S’s- (shower, S*%t and shave) for the unpredictable unknown “if it hits, it can hit big, and then…” personalities opting for Entrepreneurism as a career. Some make it. Most don’t. Who is going to be the one to take away another’s right to Dream. Even about being the Creator of the Next Best Greatest Widget in the world.

Now, the process isnt mysterious of how a Bright Idea goes from Talk to Table. Problem is too many people don’t make use of their time in DC to see how ID protection works penciling in visits to the Library of Congress Jefferson and Madison Buildings (Copyright) and the USPTO campus in Alexandria Virginia, close enough to the original cobblestone streets of President Jefferson’s times. The USPTO campus is a brisk walk in proximity to the Metro station with the option of crossing the thoroughfare above or below ground. As much as one prefers the flyway, take a moment to do the tunnel. The display of arts and photography is a pleasure to share in as is the USPTO campus, a modern day place to play starting with the USPTO museum, in the fall path of The Motley Fool. Many events are hosted there at the USPTO- from internal staff availabilities like holiday lotteries for Holiday baskets, as pictured. Others?

I was there. PPAC,

The morning Keynote Speaker at Tech at Ed was from Corsera. She flashed a poll towards the end of her speech showing how many people took and completed as online course ever. 45% of the poll participants responded today was the one and only day they ever took a course.... not sure what they took online in that the speaker was talking during the time the were supposed to be taking the course. She did say the conversion rate is paltry. Seems people have a committment issue. Interesting enough, a few hours later I read the hottest TV show in Europe isnt a fast show, it is a slow show about knitting. Interesting what we learn- online course bad, knitting for hours on end

Sometimes I wonder if people 'get' copyright. IT IS EVERYWHERE. On our floors, on our walls, on our backs, on our streets, in our markets EVEN IN OUR CUPCAKES!!!! Where do you see Copyright?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answering an author believing they "bought" a copyright:

Copyright filing with the LOC, Library of Congress, is an expense taken with the understanding that paper is your right to sue, no more no less. Your work is copyrighted from the minute of being created. Copyrights can be expedited, after the fact, and for a greater expense, like 4 x's the amount. You dont even need to put a (C) on your work. It is a good idea, precautionary, to tell the world, "I own this." The cheap way to copyright something is to send it through the USPS mail to yourself. DONT open the envelope. Write on the outside what is in it. The USPS is a federal agency which is to the benefit of the copyright.

As for timing, 6 plus months. Just make sure your changes is adress are updated with the Register of Copyrights. They dont always find you if/when you move.
I am assuming, also, you paid by credit card. That charge on your statement is documentation you paid. You can always copy that statement page, then put the copy of the charge page, paper clipped to your manuscript.

Bottom line fact is, the question being asked around the Hill is the value of that payment and Copyright. Where will you sue? Most of our cases dont interest lawyers who are business men. Their business is "law." They have overhead to cover too. The ROC attorney's werent exactly pleased when I said their agency is neutered, explaining they have limited recourse. They dont have an enforcement arm.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answering is it ok to copy a Peanuts Cartoon without permission:
Researching and adhering to laws, I know can be complicated, so here is Title XVII. It states
"§ 107 . Limitations on exclusive rights: Fair use40

Notwithstanding the provisions of sections 106 and 106A, the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or phonorecords or by any other means specified by that section, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright. In determining whether the use made of a work in any particular case is a fair use the factors to be considered shall include—

(1) the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes;
(2) the nature of the copyrighted work;
(3) the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and
(4) the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.

The fact that a work is unpublished shall not itself bar a finding of fair use if such finding is made upon consideration of all the above factors."

That is the law. It is the obligation of the potential User to seek out the Owner of the Copyright to ask permission to use it under whatever agreement/license they come to- advance, no advance, term limits etc. If someone wants to risk not asking, go for it. They are aware that the owner may disagree with their action of taking without permission, stealing which is in TItle XVIII.

As for Judges, because they ruled does not mean it is right or wrong (i) many judges/lawyers took ONE course in law school. That does not an interpretive argument make (ii) each of those cases must be looked at to understand the basis for the argument. To cite 'a judge said Fair Use' is incomplete. Why? That is understood only when one reads the case law.

I hope that clarifies how the process works. It is important the ARTS community understand. So if one copied Peanuts without permission, here is a link to a page of hits...
https://www.google.com/search?q=peanuts+snoopy+copyright+infringement&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&channel=fflb

How much of a gambler are you? That is the question or 'what are you willing to risk losing?' that is another question

 The story is not that President Bush used the photos in Google Images for reference. The story is the images in Google Images are violations of Copyright that Google is claiming to be Fair Use with protection under Safe Harbor. US Copyright Code, Title XVII, section 107, clearly states images that are used at a cost to the Copyright Owner making a living are NOT considered Fair Use. THAT is the story, Google and other Search Engines- Yahoo, AOL, Bing, etc are gathering people's IP Intellectual Property and ID Identity infringing their Rights Of Publicity and Commerce/Profit/ability to make a living. 

Had the photographers' images not been violated by Google and other Search Engines under Google's attempt dodge claims of Infringement, those images would not be  there for President Bush or anyone else to infringe. Copyright is a Property which is a right that dates back to the Magna Carta hence I established www.centerforcopyrightintegrity.com to show the real story is (c) Theft
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You Are On The Wrong Side of Patents and Trolls.

P
atents are a property to which owners- creator or purchaser, have rights.

There is the "Climb Aboard" attitude the opinion train that people who own patents do not have the right to pursue legal action against individuals and entities deciding to risk litigation by moving forward on using something they (i) do not own (ii) do not have license to use instead risking litigation, nuclear option (iii).

They own the Patent. Bottom line. IF Congress moves forward on telling Property Owners they cannot protect their property..... do I really need to fill in the blanks.

If there is a place to look to complain, look at the USPTO for its patent granting policies. Maybe requiring the over 7000 employees telecommuting to work to, instead, cease telecommuting to have to work on site maybe the crossover of patent issuance will be mitigated. Until then? Back off the owners. They are o-w-n-e-r-s.....
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The changes to Copyright Law are on a trajectory to remove ownership and incentive from Content Creators to create. America's Exceptionalism came from men who innovated setting in place parameters to encourage innovation. For the first time in its young history America is on a road to lose what made it great... its dreamers. I am that voice that logically keeps lawyers and lobbyists and GC's in place as they give away other people's livelihoods.

I would limit the rights you give the agent to assure if the relationship does not meet your expectations that you can back out without a cost to you. The world is a big place. Do not give it away. Ask questions in an offhand manner to understand who that person is. A relationship with an agent is more serious than a marriage. Divorces with agents can be costly and protracted. IF you have only one style, and there is a problem with the relationship, then figure out how to limit the agent's reach of your art works. Be clear about what you bring to the table and what they bring. Maintain your contacts your own. JUST because someone told you compliments to get you to sign on the bottom line, doesnt mean they have the goods they claim. See what other art styles like yours they represent. Be clear on how many artists are in their stable and how many other children's book color pencil artists in it too. The way it works is the agent goes out with 15-30 artists in their portfolio. The second a potential client likes one artist, it is as if the other's dont exist. You have to be realistic. They are making a living too. After all this? Breathe. And never lose site of your artist's intuition that guided you to draw what you do. Dont second guess yourself because someone said they know better...

The Options for the question "What Do You Do If Your Work Is Copied?" were
Do you ignore it
Do you write the offender
Do you take Legal Action
Do you broadcast it
Do you feel flattered

I wrote... Ahhhhhh you send out an Amazon drone to take something that is precious to them so they understand what stealing is all about..... and while you have that front going, on the backside you are building your next plans of attack because they arent going to take you seriously nor will most solicitors think it is worth their while.... ;)    

1- expedite your Copyright if not already done
2- write
3- know its value
4- go for the right court
5- dont forget that for every action there is an equal reaction which means as right as your are, they have already shown their colors which is they have no respect for the law.... expect the unexpected.

THE IP AND ID CONCERNS FOR ONLINE HEALTHCARE:
Investigations against medical care providers is done internally by investigators were are people promoted from within the company and not by licensed investigators

My  brief explanation as to why I wish to participate in the public roundtables, including why I am interested in specific panels:
I've emerged as the common sense voice for 2D ARTS IP protection with the unique background, in this DC conversation, of having worked internationally with first hand understanding of cultures working to integrate a 1 world voice (Session 3). As a non lawyer with a 40(yikes) year history in ARTS merchandising (Session 1), I bring balance and bluntness and training (Session 2- CCIA, MPI, LACBA DRS, profiler, CA-BSIS), unexpected from a dedicated Content Creator to the conversation that has progressed to where it is today. Smile, I always let librarians know without them I would never have grown from the child I was to the voice I am.

A voice for the 2D ARTS has been missing in this conversation as shown in the Session 1 focus on the music industry reminding of the point I made, to the Music and Movie industries, at the prior roundtable- when their Celebs are dead and gone, it will be the written word and paintings and photographs that will keep their money machines alive....


Session 1: Existing Exclusive Rights under Title 17
This session will explore how the existing bundle of exclusive rights under Title 17 covers the making available and communication to the public rights in the context of digital on-demand transmissions such as peer-to-peer networks, streaming services, and music downloads, as well as more broadly in the digital environment.
  Session 2: Possible Changes to U.S. Law

This session will explore the feasibility and necessity of amending U.S. law to strengthen or clarify our law in this area.

Session 3:
Foreign Implementation and Interpretation of the WIPO Internet Treaties

Stated to FACEBOOK CIO, Chief Information Officer on Consumer Data Privacy Day:
It is bold of Facebook to participate on this panel adressing respecting consumer data privacy having notified Consumers after the fact the User's content was
(i) retained by Facebook
(ii) turned over to Law enforcement
(iii) Users content on Facebook was being taken by Facebook to use for marketing algorithms and to make Facebook in to the largest shuttershtock and talent agency without the User being compensated for their Content or even being asked permission for its use

ART OF LICENSING (LINKEDIN)
The term I coined way back was Boutique Marketing. The reality is nothing sells everywhere. I am blunt. There is a reason. I wasnt when I started out learning the hard way why people want what we create. There is one reason only... they cannot do it themselves so they need us. Yet, we as artists give our power away thinking someone making promises is going to make our magic happen. No. The answer I gave the former head of MCA Licensing after he called me for a meeting was 'now that you are no longer with MCA, then what makes your phone call any different than mine? Relationships? I have the art and the skill to create." Arrogant? No. I had outsold his licensee on like product. Called for a meeting thinking an agent would do 'more' for me. His call back came, ONLY, after he was no longer at MCA. His pitch? Me paying him $5K a month to go out and market me. Oh, and everyone else he was repping was 'giving' him $5k a month too which meant he was ahead of the 8 ball, we would be out $5K with promises and no guarantee. Learn to slot your week to plan in a call time, a letter time and a meeting time and of course work time. Make it routine like breathing and out that $2k into you....

Adressing Weebly.... Love it. It isnt perfect but as a right brained left brain,  I figured it out and built a site that reflects me and my personality and my goal.

My goal... I hope saving our ability to profit from our ARTS. I spoke at a LOC roundtable on Royalty Licensing. The agenda being pushed forward is to collectively put AALLLLLL our royalties in to a giant box to share with people who arent making what we are.

NO.... I hope to file my comment on this within the next day or so. One last note that is important... as my online presence with THE CENTER FOR COPYRIGHT INTEGRITY is expanding globally, the most frequent question I am asked is how the H-E DOUBLE HOCKEYSTICKS did the push to remove our RIGHTS to our ARTS get to where it has. My answer is from experience of (a) covering (b) now attending the hearings as a suit in a seat. The Guilds- Artists, Writers, Painters, Photographers- are represented at the table by lawyers. What do lawyers do? Talk law. They are not ARTs creators like us. THEY get $5k a month as retainers to get the Guilds names out in public without remembering their job is to represent the Members and say NO. I say NO and call it like it is. Each meeting I attend, I ask questions at, that I am told GOOD question never hear it before. And I have no hesitation to call it like it is.

Last conference I was at adressing Patents and Theft, I noted the European Panelists were describing more courts being set up to deal with the growing problem of IP theft on line. The obvious question for me was to ask what money was going in to STOPPING the theft of our IP...

Relevant to the starting point about paying for advertising in a book.... here is the loop. I identified a German company called Yumpu that is taking books like the one you want to advertise in, copying it then putting online, selling the books (a) for access (b) advertising... so is the $2K worth it?  Better? Go attending a local Chamber of Commerce meeting, tell them your frustrations with making a living from your art, make a beeline to the local reporter who will be looking for a quote and soundbyte and get your name out that way....... cost?- clothes, gas, and a few hours of your time with follow up sending that link elsewhere. There is no better business strategy than being your own best advocate (in all facets of life)

Comment On CSPAN Adressing DATA Breaches:
Guest: John Breyault  National Consumers League
(i)
Underworld gold mine is hacking data. Medical data is valued at upwards of $70 a name
(ii) Concurrent to congress debating chip cards rude awakening to Travelers to Europe is magnetic strip cards are not usable. Usually travellers discover this while overseas
(iii) Adressing  the caller from Punta Gorda, my site's Facebook page was compromised under a hack using Christian Laboutin to pull in visitors. I tracked the hack to Russia. I let the Starwood Hotel security know of the breach. Their response was tepid
(iv) It is not hard to prosecute international hackers if the proper channel is pursued. I advocate taking the hacker/country to the Hague International Court if the country is signer if Berne convention

I was asked what I wanted to see in the Tech Community. Being innundated with everyone who is starting something they think is the next great widget, I realized I want to see a 'speed dating' and 'marketplace' for needs I have and skills I can share ie. I need to make a 3 minute video... I will barter my expertise
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To be honest to achieve a goal one must be realistic not creative. By knowing who you are and how you operate, is how you will hunker down. Getting off technology actually is a real way to be productive. Sometimes the brain needs a break and a chance to do what humans do best... be real. I have bought a mini purse size pad about 2" x 4" that I carry bag to bag to bag for those moments I have a brain flush I want to write down. Page tops are perforated so I can tear the page off then place or tape in to the related spot I will need to find it at. Productive? YUP. And relaxed for step away time from technology besides the war was won when military could take, chew and swallow the notes sent to them to protect the enemy from discovering them. Ouch. Cannot imagine trying to get an iPhone down..

When a Visual Researcher and Rights Clearance Officer exploring the emerging field of Digital Legacy asked for  comments if In light of the news last week from Getty Images, wondering if anyone has started taking advantage of the "free" collection and are you embedding in your work?", I answered, " There is no such thing as a free lunch and when people forget that remind them to always look a gift horse in the mouth. Embedded. Says it all.... you are tracked! And Getty is setting into play where to find persons/entities infringing the TOS..."

There was only one thing to say to FACEBOOK's CIO speaking on a Pew Research Center adressing Consumer Privacy on Data Privacy Day. So I said it..."It is bold of Facebook to participate on this panel adressing Respecting Consumer Privacy having notified consumers after the fact of signing on as Facebook Users that their content on Facebook was being taken for Facebook marketing without the Consumers' knowledge, then announcing Facebook keeping the data for commercial and other use without compensation, notice or acknowledgement to the consumer."

She never answered my question, Facebook's CIO....

Lets get real, THEY OWN THE PATENT. Makes no difference if they are the creator, investor or bought it. It is theirs for the length of the Patent. If The Big Techs want access to it, either pay the price of wait until the Patent is in the Public Domain. OTHERWISE, the decision to bust IP ownership will impact every other IP product out there from Copyright to Trademark to whatever making it precedent for someone protecting their Infringed Copyright in to a Copyright Troll when all they are doing is protecting their IDEA, bought, borrowed or innovated

RESPONDING TO A CONVERSATION OF A WRITER WHO PAID $25K FOR A FEW IMAGES FOR THEIR PROJECT FEARING A CLAIM OF FAIR USELet everyone listen that if and when we take legal actions NO MATTER HOW RIGHT WE ARE there is no guaranteeing the ethics of the persons actions are brought against AND OF THEIR LEGAL TEAM. If we are to win protecting Content, Laws need to be crafted to do so. IF using someones Content costs them money, suck it up, you are taking on board you are daring to be sued. Make it yourself. Hire an artist to paint it, hire a photographer to restage it.... what more can be said. Spending $25K to use a few images, boggles my mind, I have to be honest. For what gain? Clearly not profit. IF the rhetoric on Capitol Hill is about stimulating jobs, that $25K could have employed some artists and photographers to create or a writer to describe in words what was wanted at a far more real price rather than a Vanity Claim of I got the real deal of this image from whomever...

Bluntly? In the least for my taking the Technology Companies head on as to their stealing Content Creators IP, ID and Commerce. A week ago, on Data Privacy Day, I took on Facebook's Chief Privacy officer, in a Q&A of a panel on Consumer Privacy, my comment to Facebooks CPO was that it was bold of Facebook to be on a panel adressing Consumer Privacy considering Facebook failed to advise Consumers when they began the Facebook free service that Consumer data would be kept, archived, algorithmed and shared then letter be taken by Facebook to make them the largest stock agency.

She, Facebooks CPO, said nothing.

My direct repeated forcefulness achieved the first ever shout outs on Capitol Hill in the Judiciary for Artist's and Photographers. My continued focus on Copyright protection first, is bringing the players from Content Creators and Law Enforcement in to the same conversation to the point a legislator shared with me he is now seeing the criminal behaviours of the Private Entities running the Internet.
My conversation to the Judiciary brought home the reality of Small Business, Entrepreneurs and freelancers who dont get paychecks because they opted to not go for jobs instead to build careers from their passions.

So I write everything Copyright content with a strong voice that is being read around the world. When did I start? I year ago right after after surviving a car accident with a concussion, whiplash, cracked T1 and a broken back. I became the example to Legislators of how Journalists fight for causes they believe in writing effectively to drive points home.

The point I make over and over again, from the POV of Crowdfunding, EU, local, even JFK.  The economy is not about JOBS it is about IP

OREGON STATE SENATOR JACKIE WILSON Senate Bill 1540 Seeks To Make Patent Trolling A Violation Of Oregon’s Unlawful Trade Practices Act:
Patents are Rights owned by persons or entities, keyword is OWNED. That someone is using an item without license that contains elements/components owned by that Owner but NOT released for the widespread marketing of the product is not the problem of the Patent owner, it is a reality we are going to see exploding more and more as product enters the markets. IP belongs to someone. Think of that the next time you make a cell phone call- with, at times, up to 150 components with licenses owners may come claim payments for. IF Ms Wilson wants to make a law, then make a law that will make the product manufacturer liable if they fail to sign an agreement with ALL the IP owners protecting consumers.

Otherwise, Content creators including writers, ARTists, dancers, motion picture industry, photographers, poets etc will be stuck to the precedence this misguided interpretation of Patent Infringement hung with a great name, Patent Troll, leaving Content Creators unable to pursue abusive infringement of their Content copyrights.

Is that really what Ms. Wilson wants to do? Strip Entrepreneurs, Small business, innovators and Visionaries of their right to Due Process and their day in Court?

I am watching your segment on Sean Penn and Charlize Theron.

As a woman with a national platform, you have the opportunity to educate viewers on IP and ID theft along with appropriate and inappropriate behaviours in an exponentially exploding IT world that Enforcement cannot keep up with. I am reaching across ARTS and INTERNATIONAL borders to get the conversation that is not happening fast or loud enough going. I achieved the first ever shout out for Artists and Photographers in Congress.

Your showing the photo of Mr. Penn and Ms. Theron in the store IS a violation of store privacy policies along with stalking of the couple. While we all "want to know", having been a photographer working internationally and in the US Capitol covering the WH and Capital Hill along with being one of the earliest women in Licensing, AND the woman active in building the first discrete site crime analysis lab on a college campus in the continent, I respect laws. I respect the global celebs I covered enough to know like you and I that when we work, we work and that when we are not working that is private time.

The lines of etiquette are lost in this world. You have the opportunity to come on board as I am doing and speaking up as I did to Facebook on DATA Privacy Day at Pews Charitable Trusts when I said to Facebooks Chief Privacy Officer on a panel adressing Consumer Privacy. I said "It is bold of Facebook to be on a panel adressing Consumer Privacy in that Facebook set out to groom Users to their site neglecting to tell Users their data was being kept and shared with advertising and other entities for marketing and other purposes only to then tell Users that all data uploaded to the site is now Facebooks and not the Users to use as part of Facebook becoming the largest Content agency".... the reason Facebook is now showing profits.

Here is the pitch I share with people as follow up to meeting:

With your public platform to correct the image of working on one's own as entrepreneurs, small business owners, self employed and freelancers, I decided to share my site with you. I am introducing you to my Launch- THE CENTER FOR COPYRIGHT INTEGRITY. The landing page is an aggregate of ARTS, IP, IT, ID and enforcement. Inside the site is where you will get insight into the world of people who dont take jobs but for for their dream.

I am too familiar with the position most write from adressing Copyright Issues and Technology which is unfair to the real side of working independently as a freelancer, small business and ARTS content creator. I am a 2D ARTS Content creator active in speaking against online theft of Content and its Commerce.

Until I brought the Voice of the Freelancer to the Judiciary committee's attention that an independent person doesn't get unemployment if they are unable to work, they did not know. Independent- self employed people are not part of the weekly unemployment numbers. They don't get paychecks so they don't get disability, unemployment etc. For this reason, the weekly Jobs Report number that impacts Wall Street and Political discourse, is not only, them, offbase, it is false.

Some people are blessed to work their whole lives and not have a job. I am one of them.

The fact is the same Technology that is stealing my content and the content Independents need to live off of is stealing yours and your employers so, the writing on the wall is, your Job, is at risk, too.

 I encourage you to visit, stay connected to, share my site. Your platform is powerful. Your next article, speech, meeting and/or report can shed the myth of working independently and share the reality of hanging on by the skin of an Dream Chaser's teeth...

 I am a profiler. I know how the stats stack on this issue. I see the wave of kudos each time I speak up.I look forward to educating your audience.  My "Notice of Protection" across my image is a proactive step to mitigate Online Identity theft with use of my image had it not been released with Protective Statements on it. Think Target. Think Neiman Marcus. Think your image appearing on a "dating site" anywhere around the world without your knowledge or approval. I look forward to educating your audience.

I know how the stats stack on this issue. I see the wave of kudos each time I speak up.I look forward to educating your audience.

Be the first onair hostess to get this conversation going!

Congresswoman Pelosi mixed Royalties & Reproductive Rights when she announced David Cicilline to the House Judiciary tying Kids to $$ Copyright Owners Need Control of 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kenney Chesneys suit for his image is not an issue of Copyright Infringement, it is a small step in a tsunami of Intellectual Property infringement taking place every second of each day, exponentially, as theft of ARTS Creators, IP (intellectual property), ID (identity) are stolen in nanoseconds stealing Content and Commerce. One person owns Kenny's Right To Publicity. And that is Kenny. Others can be granted the opportunity, license, to use his image but only under contract with specified allowances. That said, Kenny is no different than you or me- being bought and sold, not only by algorithms, but through sites taking our Identity, to seduce people, for pay, to enter these sites, finding out where we live, with whom and when. It is, as I told the man from State, Human Trafficking. He said he never thought of it that way before.

WE need to think of it this way. WE need to tell our legislators, no one has the right to the fruit of our hands, the legacy we create and leave to whom we choose to give IT, our Content too... under license, with compensation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THAT SAID.....
Here is the rule of thumb in life and business and even when it comes to signing NDA's-  trust no one except your mom. That said, signing an NDA is as much of a gamble as entering into mediation before trial- do you really believe no one is 'paying attention beyond agreement.' That said, success is about educated calculated risk. Do your homework, ask around, ask alot of questions and then more questions and even more because most likely you dont know that person or maybe knows someone who does who refered them. Lets be real, you are taking the leap not the person making the recommendation. Ask yourself how much of a potential life complication can you endure. That said, do your homework. Research them on line, never easier to do than it is now. Research their company, financials, court cases AND after all that is done? Still a crapshoot mitigated, maybe if you dot i's and cross t's. That said like the lady on shark tank said, if you can do it on your own without outside capital, do so. The more people you bring in......

Adressing patent before proceeding? Ask inventors. Several I have met on the Hill have said it isnt worth the expense after all the minute your patent is published online AT TWO AM WHEN YOU ARE SLEEPING someone in Asia is right on it while you are left holding a very expensive piece of paper that if you are lucky a lawyer, may, or may not, pick up representing you on a hourly fee.

SETTING UP FOR 2014
1- The goal is to clear your desk of what you didnt get to narrow the over due "plans" and reset the Must Do's and Want To's
2- Thin and narrow procedures to mitigate last minute time crushes
3- BREATHE!!!!   (c) Carrie Devorah
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A TIP TO SUCCESS
Stay narrow
Don't over reach
Don't get distracted by all knowing people who tell you they are
experts. If they have to tell you they aren't
Usually they are telling half truths. A half truth is a whole lie
Look in the mirror at least once a day and smile. You are a Rockstar  (c) Carrie Devorah

THEFT OF CUSTOMER DATA IS UNAVOIDABLE
There is nothing we can do about it. There us a profit made from stolen data in fact 7.9 cents a name other than to not have the card or disengage from the internet. Multiply that number times 40 million. I am also a victim of Target credit card theft. Target notified me about two months ago about activity on my card they deducted was not by me. Keep your receipts. Go over your statements and look for small amounts the $$ theft of choice by online
thieves.be aware paper receipts are being phased out according to NCR the  cash register company that
invented receipts (c) Carrie Devorah

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My steps to 2014 started in 2013. My goal was to identify and isolate laggard issues then resolve to complete them. Every issue has a dollar/ cost factor so the goal was to calculate that in motion towards clearing up 'the desk' making decisions that would be stuck to without regret.

Second, was to set up rhythm and rhyme models for my sites- what works, what doesn't work. That came from informal polling along w revisiting the mission behind the sites and having identified what is succeeding in theses worlds- again, sticking to mission and building a trimmed implementation preset.

Trim emails incoming.

And calendar a schedule that is doable. Guest and foremost- eat healthy, head clearing walks and smile being
the rare one who loves their work (c) Carrie Devorah

I am of the definite opinion that technology exacerbated a persons need to develop social skills impeding with filters that are learned with experience.

I was active in building the first discrete site crime analysis lab on a college campus on the continent. Back in 2091 I coined the phrase psychological homelessness to describe the trending, then, of people to relate to virtual beings that are now termed 'avatars.'

Life is about learning coping skills. Seductive disembodied voices are just that- manufactured perfection without touch with reality. Back to my coining the phrase 'psychological homelessness'.... My prediction in 2001 manifested in  culture of mass shooters ie. V Tech, Newtown...Social skills impeded  by online fantasy

GOING GLOBAL BY DESIGN OR BY CONSCRIPTION aka INTERNET THEFT OF CONTENT
The premise of your article does not convey the Internet reality that, willing or unwilling, creators, business builders large and small, are instantly global because of the platform deception set by the privateers pushing the Internet into our lives. The privateers include the VC and angels setting the seed money, developers, search engines, ISPs, marketing firms Et al.

Within seconds of putting an image online a freelancer- slash- small business person is 'gone global' usually without their knowledge and-or permission under the perpetrators guise of Fair Use and Safe Harbor they have advocated for domestically and in foreign Am-Chams.

Accidental?

No. Deliberate w intent to collapse individuals abilities to intentionally build their own global firms from the ground up. Without content control, how does the single mom or disabled person have a chance at going global.

That said, with a preponderance of algorithm marketeers based outside of the US capturing and selling American ID, too, for all we know the average US based person may already have been 'gone global' but just doesn't know it.. Yet (c) Carrie Devorah

I graduated Pratt Institute w an Associates degree in art and a certificate in Children's Book Illustration. I became a leading lifestyle designer specializing in the children's area BUT I did not succeed because of my degree. As with all degrees, I succeeded despite the degree. The number one complaint of degree holders is they are not
taught the business of business which is a problem when wanting to build success. popular college forums beat that drum- loud a d, consistent as to how degrees fail. The difference between my associates degree and someone who goes for a doctors or masters is that they have, basically, the obligation of a Mortgage without the
house while I has so much less debt that I bought the house with plenty left over. (c) Carrie Devorah

CSPAN- JANUARY 9    Congressman Jim Gerlach   6th District PA
Summary of Carrie Devorah's comment on Congress failure to adress small business people, freelancers in conversations of the Economy, Unemployment, Jobs and Intellectual Property:

"Sir,
your numbers are skewed . And it's not about finding places to cut but making sure you go into the tax haven states and collect from all the companies hiding funds there away from their own states. Specifically the millions of dollars Silicon Valley cc'd are hiding in Delaware and Nevada

All this talk about unemployment does not include entrepreneurs and freelancers who because  they don't get weekly
paychecks do not collect unemployment. Disability and other benefits when they cannot work or pensions when they retire.

It's not about jobs its about owning ones own IP (intellectual property) which means the commerce from it whereas congress is destroying the economy w continuing latitudes towards the private companies who own the
Internet whose very structure is to bloat themselves off other people's content and then devastate brick businesses by having skirted local and federal laws by not paying taxes which support communities while the tech companies for the most part hide their assets in tax haven states and offshore" (c) Carrie Devorah
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As a twenty plus year designer I do not believe that government has ANY place on legislating that artist can benefit from increases in their art they sold at terms the artist determined at the initial time of sale. There is nothing precluding each artist to create their own contract of sale and/or license for their art. That is an individual's right to stipulate. But to mandate that artist's MUSt benefit from art that someone years later buys and/or sells at an upticked price sets VERY VERY bad groundwork. Does this mean that a designer whose clothes end up in a Thrift Store is entitled to a piece of that sale price too? At some point ARTS person have to grow up and be business people when they begin to get paid for their work. It isnt rocket science BUT I think to sell and piece and then years later demand clawback? Well, that means everything in our lives will be fairgame to be taken back from us because its 'Creator' wants it back.... All the art on your apartment walls? get a clue....! Someone in China who painted the damn piece by Robot or on black velvet will demand a piece of it if it becomes valuable. What will be accomplished, is decimating the world of Investors who sugar daddy the arts..... and nothing we own will ever fully belong to us  (c) Carrie Devorah
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ONLINE BACKGROUND CHECKS
Online background checks are an oxymoron in that people can and do routinely remove their data hence if someone is proactive to removing bad information about themselves you will only see what they want public.

The online sites such as personal data aggregates are actually many of them under investigation by the FCC for data marketing

Cut to the chase, are the online sites trustworthy? Like the commercial is about online fraud, yes tat one about dont believe what you read on the Internet..,.bonjour. ;)  (c) Carrie Devorah

TRAVEL AND DIET
I went down from a size 18 to 12 and the I travelled on Christmas Dunkin donuts Pre flight Reality that no food is on board so race buy Salad bananas pear cross country flight and then buy two pei Wei potstickers at the Phoenix stop over And at 2:00am.... Down in the hotel bar at 11:00 PM west coast time for Kobe hit dog and chips. The moral of that one day travel damage is in these days of having to carry your own food on board....

 AN IMMIGRANT SPEAKS
I moved to America at age 17 knowing no one and went on to build my name and reputation one client at a time. I borrowed no money. I owed no one. I was freelance my whole life by owning my Intellectual property. America today is not the country immigrants of ten or more moved to. Being freelance is not a way to survive in this America. Being proud and not wanting charity in down times is not respected. IP is stolen within seconds on the Internet. The America I moved to respected creators of content who built empires one image at a time. To be honest, as someone who is never at loss to give advice, as a content creator who cherishes my IP  I am at a loss for advice to give in a country where activists getting paychecks  tell me no one should own  IP or anything at all....

My burnout started with over a thousand emails a day from LinkedIn conversations, Facebook, twitter, for starters, thinking I really cared to know who did what with whom. Or websites I looked at for hotels or cars or food or- the list grows on- who spam me w emails on better prices and even deeper discounts long after I made purchase AND checked the No More Contact box before leaving the site and after their emails started spamming. Or every time I sign on, their ads pop up and cross the pages I am on thinking THAT will make me like their
product or cause more. Not at all. I will like your competitor until they start doing the same.

I live in the Usa. I did work in media in the UK/EU. My aggregate covers global 2d IP, ID and copyright.

Your question is too broad in that the area of adress is narrow. I am an expert.

The very setup of the Internet has decimated traditional mores and morals. The Internet is unfettered it crosses borders that are now blurred- something shot in the UK travels within seconds globally, with or without license or knowledge. The very definitions of filtering and/or porn are smashed. Photos of drunk teens are circulated within classmates resulting in teens committing suicide. Husbands and wives we would write off as trailer trash, online become porn stars. Short of in home filter cops the matter of online put-it-up-until-you-are-told-to-take-it-down is exponentially unfiltered and will remain so. UK or US, free speech is free speech.  That said, I covered the first UK shariah compliant bank opening and I covered my fair share on in street drunkeness long before the popular
UK site of Irish sex in the streets. The chance of the Internet plug being pulled is nil n (c) Carrie Devorah

As someone who built a DC tour guide I took time to test the various tours. It was less about the tour and more about focus on managing the machine. The tour was about getting around and not the sites. The tour guides lacked knowledge one gets on a walking or traditional bus or trolley tour. Segways are novelties to say you did it but actually rolled  (c) Carrie Devorah

My training a as a profiler and CCiA give me the experts voice here as does being a parent of divorce who will tell you from first hand experience the crux isn't staying together for the sake of the kids but in fact relating together for the sake of the kids. Young children of divorce grow into men and women products if divorce nursing their
inner child angst decades later if both parents are not on the same page which should be ONLY 'Kids First.'

If the parents don't monitor and watch the impact if their divorce on their children, they risk repeating the marital
issues in their kids or their kids growing up to be ever want to marry or have kids themselves. Kids as they grow older harbor THEIR recollections or perceptions of their parents divorce, often factually incorrect but hold on to that mis-memory then making that a wedge between parents often insurmountable unless one parent determines no matter how long it takes to find that opportunity to rebalance the family. So is it better to live together in a cold war or is it better to make the marriage work or is it better to find the golden door to family mental health? No brainer. Go for the gold (c) Carrie Devorah

My commitment for 2014 includes my commit inner of 2013 to move in as many ways back to the old school of pen, paper and the soon to be lost art of writing and communication. In 2013, I defriended my children from Facebook. Being tagged in a photo replaced phone calls. Text messages have replaced spoken endearments. Nope- in 2014 I will continue to embrace my 'when I am old I will wear the color purple entitlements I have earned (c) Carrie Devorah

KISS
Keep it simple stupid
Follow the Hollywood model of the pitch- three lines, the movie SHARK was sold in. In a Twitter world? 144 characters. If you can't get your pitch in to a first line of a tight edit '144 characters' and a flesh out of three lines, then you don't know your idea well enough to sell it (c) Carrie Devorah

As long as precious metals such as iridium and gold are in cellphones (which people take apart to mine for the metals), there will be thieves. Locking? Unlocking? Secondary to the real conversation of the driver behind thieves and theft: laughing all the way to the cache of personal information stored in the phones.

 There is nothing we can do about it. There us a profit made from stolen data in fact 7.9 cents a name other than to not have the card or disengage from the internet. Multiply that number times 40 million.
I myself was a victim of Target credit card theft. Target notified me about two months ago about activity on my card they deducted was not by me.

Keep your receipts. Go over your statements and look for small amounts the $ theft of choice by online
thieves. Be aware that paper receipts are being phased out according to NCR the  cash register company credited for inventing receipts. I was told it was paper receipts that "sold" cash registers. It was the marketing hook the founder of NCR came up with to move those big money monsters.

Today SQUARE and other innovations stalk you as move move vendor to transaction to transaction to vendor with your getting e-ceipts despite not having asked for one.


Want to get MORE scared? The rep from NCR educated me afterwards on how NCR is surviving in a digital world. AND it isnt with paper receipts one of the last few bastions for tracing online thefts.....  (c) Carrie Devorah

WHY I DID WHAT I DID IN MY LIFE CAREER CHOICES

I started my first business, home based, because I just gave birth to a baby and believed my number one job was mom. I retired that business about 18 years later as a leading lifestyle designer who drew animal characters for my living after a monkey wrench of becoming a vet was thrown into my life long dream. So I drew animals. LOVED the career but sure as heck still wonder about having my arm all the way up inside a mare helping her give birth

My 'next' career took me close back to horses. I photographed west coast/international horseracing for about 4 years.

My NEXT career took me to Ground Zero of Boxing and Racing- the Nation's Capitol where I covered the White House and Capitol Hill for about 9 years. THAT career led me to where I am now bringing my lifetime of careers built on the same model as a Small Business Entrepreneur now focused on making sure Congress gets it right about Technology's Theft of Individuals content on their ability to make livings.

ID Theft and Fraud is a One Gender Caution Fits All In Business and In Online Dating

View my site. Search ID theft
Dating companies make no effort to qualify who the person alleges to be matches an official document ie Drivers License, passport, etc.
A frequent scam on the internet dating sites is pulled by the sites themselves utilizing bundled photos they buy of attractive or other people with which to lure members who scan the site then must sign in to contact that member
People often find out too late who they are dealing with in life in general, ie Madoff, that adding the anonymity of a website only amplifies that fraud on a dating site where people are most vulnerable

I am speaking to Legislators about a 2D IP, ID and Commerce Protection Act adressing this matter 
(c) Carrie Devorah

Loss Leaders are something YOU choose to do as a photographer or a designed only after someone has written and made the request of you. Any  image taken in a different way without written permission is theft. There are laws on the books for Theft of Personal Property   (c) Carrie Devorah

A license agreement is less about the paper itself but about the partnership forged with the attorney who crafts it to fit your needs then prepared to work on its enforcement   (c) Carrie Devorah

Small claims court is NOT a venue for Commercial Artists who produce far too many images. My ongoing conversation with legislators adresses the international model that is working. Small claims is not part of that model. The laws on the books work. The laws just need to be implemented. Theft is theft regardless of whether it is art or bubblegum   (c) Carrie Devorah

PARAPHRASE OF THE QUESTION… a question about copyright on still shots from a movie that an editor said would like to use a couple of pictures in a book that are taken from a film allegedly stating there  would  be no copyright issue since a single image represents a fraction of one second…

To informatively answer read this site THE CENTER FOR COPYRIGHT INTEGRITY. Post your Comments and Questions here to into TELL YOUR (C) STORY. Encourage others to do the same. Legislators read my site.

To directly answer your question IF proof is discovered that the Author of the image is dead LIFE+70, the answer is YES. They better have damn good proof though. To claim ownership the license agreement/bill of sale must include the transfer of Copyright and Right To Publicity and Future Technologies too. Their defense will be Safe Harbor. The response to that is NO.... if I give you a gun and you kill someone then I am complicit in the murder, and here, crime since Theft moreso WILLFUL theft is covered under Title XVIII of the Criminal Code (c) Carrie Devorah

BOOMING ALL OVER AGAIN, AGAIN: I dont look it. I dont act it. I am beginning to hear it. Like the question a young MPAA employee asked me as we were leaving a 1776 hosted Hackathon :WHAT ARE Y O U DOING HERE? After looking around to make sure it was in fact me he was talking to I said "why wouldnt I be?" I was an entrepreneur before the word was sexy. It was called paying bills. I knew how to pivot without it having a label. It was called needed to be adept in order to support three boys as a single mom. I was disrupting long before that bad word became a good word. WE called it marching to the beat of your own drummer and ignoring the naysayers OUR mums taught us knew who we were and were jealous.... Booming?

We all complain about the circulars the USPS stuffs our mailboxes with. They are a holiday budget guide
1- PINTEREST the old fashioned way by taking the USPS delivered circulars then scotch tape them the old fashioned way to a page, one page per category
2- Ordering on line with a list is a sure way to mitigate spontaneous purchases
3- if the order is a first time order there is no delivery charge
4- Tip or no tip having groceries delivered by a smiling nice person is worth the experience. I learned this tip having been disabled unable to drive or be driven for a period of time

So Holiday Budgeting the OLD FASHIONED WAY.....
Pinterest the clippings, Twitter the note under each clipping... FACE BOOK the delivery person and get LINKEDIN to people in the process. And of course, before the list is "deleted" INSTAGRAM to people how amazing the old school ways still are even at holiday times for Budgeting   (c) Carrie Devorah

I was an Entrepreneur before it was sexy. 1978. I did not go to college. I got a 2 year certificate in Children's Book illustration.

Social Media will be important in 2014 because it provides anyone anywhere of any age of any culture to BE. They can be whatever they want without leaving home without networking without being Social. Hmmmm. Let me rethink that- anyone can succeed. Success with Social Media comes at a cost. In the Information Age of Instancy anyone can be anything. The same APP that finds a lost child can locate a woman by her stalker. With Innovation comes Responsibility. And diligence. Social Media opens instant pathways.

What is a book? It is quite...it is about peace. Digital doesnt get it. Its about reading from daylight in to dark from sun to moon  (c) Carrie Devorah

WHEN PHOTOGRAPHING FOOD
1- use daylight when possible
2- avoid shadows
3- get it right out of the chute. relying on Photoshop isnt of credit to the food and or the dish
4- find amazing background/texture ie. why not show an apple pie on wood with some spillover
5- food always looks better 'worn' so in the shots enlist a volunteer to taste. Ready. Aim. Shoot to capture the glee

Fear- you know it. It is that chill that shivers you
Intuition- it is that sense of calm comfort

Problem is we tend to be drawn to the shiver and second guess that calm because of course we cant be write so we go forward and find out we should have listened to our inner sense. If we are smart, the 'next' time, and there always is one, we turn on our heels asap and dont look back and dont care why knowing there is a higher power watching over us and that the answer for pivoting and booking it will be shown to us when we are not looking. If we are patient and If we are strong enough to stand tall with the calm, there is no stopping us.

Mind you, fear is healthy. It can be life saving in that it overrides logic

.... I am closer and closer to getting my site done for THE CENTER FOR COPYRIGHT INTEGRITY. I have been monitoring this conversation. I will comment in ONE wrap up next week. What I am clearer on is that I will need to include (somehow) a section devoted to the ART OF MARKETING. I will write more later but poor Keith, he learned a lesson too- and we are to be thankful to him for allowing us to see beyond his request. Now, for all of you bashing Keith.... hugs, grin!!!!!

FYI, the FACEBOOK privacy change had me jump my announcement by a week BUT effective tomorrow the NEW unannounced FACEBOOK change is that ALL images are their website become FACEBOOK's property to sell for advertising etc. I took all my images down. THAT SAID, images taken down/deleted from FACEBOOK are never taken down (a) they are "able to be put back up" within a 14 day time period and (b) on Google and other search engine/ISPs back ups.I collapsed my gallery of my images I had already defaced with (c) Carrie Devorah May Be Used Only Under License which, grin, is all over the net.

.... Excellent Ronnie,- online or offline THIS was always a rule. Trust me if I didnt see designs showing up elsewhere down the road. Sometimes it is 'the good thought' we all come to but one HUGE one smarts to this day.... Pillow People. I brought it into Springs Performance along with 11 other prototypes. The design came out under a woman who never designed before or since. Obviously there are more details not for a public forum about how my idea was published under her name, BUT I was young, hungry and when I asked for the non disclosure to be signed and was told 'But we are Springs Performance, if you cant trust us.....' And the lawyers I talked to were clear I did not have a signed disclosure form. Lesson learned- RUN when you hear that. Tracking work you send out for review is one job. Tracking items AFTER they have come to market is a whole 'nother ball of wax. THEN there is Right To Publicity. I just found in an "antique" 'shop' (ouch) a design I did years back but highly promoting the item is MY NAME.... uh uh uh.....   (c) Carrie Devorah

.... The Rule of Unacceptable Behaviour sadly is HURRY UP AND WAIT and generations old. The Agent doesnt need you. You need them. They know it.. Another sad rule is SEND IT TO ME SASE and I will return it to you. I have a Bridge to sell. The blunt descriptor of an Agent and Artist is a Pimp-Whore relationship. IF they had talent they would be selling it not yours. Become your own agent. I did it. And things got done in timely fashions AND I sent everything out Certified Return Receipt Requested so it could be tracked.

…. My mentors? Elizabeth Elberg and Dr Phoebe Kelsoe. Elizabeth glossed over a watercolor style called British Watercolor technique. I was new to America from Canada. I was drawn to it, the only student in our class who was. She would talk with me about the old school ways of art classes where someone had to draw a study from different angles for a year and their final was ONE of those angles from memory. Opposite Elizabeth was the new graphics teacher who marched in and said, 8 classes, 8 projects. I dont care if you beg, borrow or steal and never show up. 8 things to grade. Elizabeth taught me to look, observe and in my mind know where my pencil/brush was going to go on the paper while being open to opportunity of a new direction.

Phoebe taught me my gut was good when it came to crime solving. She taught about Sexual Molestation and Deviants. And, each test subject, I got it right. She said sometimes gifts are God given and to be done for that reason to help. So I have helped alot behind the scenes knowing a woman who taught me to go Eyes Wide Open into a paper trail without predefining the journey nor being brought down by the inhumanity I was looking at....

....The integrity of the piece was lost at the first sentence "A single photograph in a personal collection or a archive might be represented by any number of derivative files of varying sizes, in varying formats, all with different sets of embedded metadata." I adress the reality of Metadata often when I write, clearly in my submission on Orphan Works filed with Maria's office back in February....As fast as Authors are putting their Metadata into images/ARTS works, the Metadata is being removed by Technological advancements. HENCE technology is creating the very ORPHAN WORKS that technology wants to profit from.... I am hoping next week my site for my Center focused on PROTECTING PROPERTY rights will be up and running. I would like to link your piece to it as a lesson on how the ARTS experience is not factored in to the reality of Proponents of Preservation etc. So we are clear, ARTS want to work with you but while you are getting a weekly paycheck to do your job, we bet on ourselves and hence 'delay' payment that now is being taken without compensation for purposes we did not approve or know of until too late....

In my experience, the paper pushers dont think through potential issue of some of the names they grant... I go back to APPLE.... potentially, Gwyneth Paltrow (wink) can be sued for naming her daughter APPLE and, realistically, every time we go to the market and stop where the sign says APPLE are we infringing a mark and, grin, 'file' sharing.... we will find out now, wont we   (c) Carrie Devorah
