Blackhole In Cyberspace: The Legal Void In The Internet, 15 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 413 (1997), Alexander Gigante

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

Most people surf the Internet with little concern for who makes decisions regarding Internet administrative matters and who has the authority to make those decisions. Initially, as the Internet evolved out of a project sponsored by the U.S. Department of Defense in 1969, many "founder groups," such as the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority, formed under the auspices of the federal government to administer the network's development. While these groups continue to function today as the main decision-making bodies over all aspects of the Internet's governance, several newer organizations, such as the Internet Society, have taken an important role in the …

Remedies In Domain Name Lawsuits: How Is A Domain Name Like A Cow?, 15 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 437 (1997), Carl Oppedahl

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

A court sitting in equity should take five factors into consideration when determining whether a domain name address should be transferred. First, the court must ask whether the trademark is coined, not in the dictionary and unique. It is important to note that famous does not mean unique. Uniqueness helps a court to simplify the issue by focusing the issue to whether only one company is entitled to the address. This question requires a party seeking a remedy to conduct a search of the entire Internet using search engines, on-line trademark databases, and company name searches. The court should only …

An Island In The Net: Domain Naming And English Administrative Law, 15 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 493 (1997), Mark Gould

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

The United Kingdom's system for assigning domain names is privately run and follows some Internet standard for assignments and revocations. However, there are some internal restrictions that reflect the policy of accommodating existing domains and avoiding DNS lock up, which might occur with badly configured domain name servers. Nominet does not easily fit into definitions of a private function since it does have some public characteristics. In addition, no British counterpart to the Internet Service OC exists. The policies followed by Nominet in allocating domain names reflects conventions established prior to its existence. These policies do not appear to take …

The Copyright Battle: Emerging International Rules And Roadblocks On The Global Information Infrastructure, 15 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 759 (1997), Stephen Fraser

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

This article discusses intellectual property rights on the Global Information Infrastructure (GII) as affected by the evolution of the Internet. It outlines the battle between the advocates of total copyright protection and the advocates of minimal copyright protection. The article examines all of the proposed national and international laws affecting copyright protection on the GII, beginning with the minimal protections outlined in the Berne Convention and the problems involved in its enforcement and continuing with its successors, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT)/World Trade Organization (WTO). The article reviews the history of international copyright protection and the different …

Spring 1997 Sabbatical Leave Report, Sally Wallace

Sabbaticals

I propose to investigate the ways that basic English composition is taught at various colleges throughout the country and to use my findings to design a Parkland-specific English 101 instructional model that integrates composition into some of our transfer and career programs, so that students would write about topics relevant to their goals while enhancing their understanding of the academic discipline they're writing about. My research would involve the League for Innovation community colleges, Alverno College, Macomb Community College, the University of Illinois at Urbana, and the National Council of Teachers of English.

Price Dispersions In Auction Markets: A Case Study Of The Cattle Auction Markets, Gertrude S. Muwanga, Donald L. Snyder, Deevon Bailey

Economic Research Institute Study Papers

This study investigated the different factors affecting selected cattle auction prices and their dispersions to establish the market structure and nature of price equilibria. Overall, price dispersions were influenced by the season, type of cattle, breed, sex, geographical location, total number of lots auctioned, price slides, proportions of different cattle classes, lot size, base weight, type of flesh and type of frame. Prices were highest in winter and lowest in fall. Prices variations were lowest in winter and highest in fall. Price dispersions were more peaked in fall and least peaked in summer. Price equilibria were monopolistically competitive, monopsonistically competitive, …

The Media In Black And White, Everette E. Dennis, Ted Pease

Journalism and Communication Faculty Publications

The media's treatment of and interaction with race, like race itself is one of the most sensitive areas in American society. Whether in its coverage and treatment of racial matters or racial connections inside media organizations themselves, mass communication is deeply involved with race. The Media in Black and White brings together twenty journalists and scholars, of various racial backgrounds, to grapple with a controversial issue: the role that media industries, from advertising to newspapers to the information superhighway, play in helping Americans understand race.

Plato's Breath, Utah State University Press

Swenson Poetry Award Winners

May Swenson Poetry Award Volume 1 with foreward by Herbert Leibowitz. Freisinger's new poetry collection is inhabited alike by bright, tangible images and thoughtful, intricate meditations. Pumpkins, poultry houses, sperm tests, a vacuum cleaner salesman, a father's damaged brain, an anatomist's tools, a baby falling from a fourth-story window-all of these come to the page distinct and palpable. At the same time, the work finds a central inspiration in theoretical work like Jeremy Rifkin's social criticism. Poetry of both the mind and the heart, Plato's Breath embraces the power of imagination to transform the ordinary into an extraordinary affirmation of …

Bernard Devoto, Russell Burrows

Western Writers Series Digital Editions

Bernard DeVoto spent the years of the Second World War hard at work on two books. Although very different from one another, both books happened to have Western settings, far from the home DeVoto had been making for himself and his family in Cambridge, Massachusetts. One of these books seemed to pour itself from him, mounting to 100,000 words, then swelling to 150,000, and rounding out at about 170,000. Its subject was the mountain fur trade, the larger-than-life stories of Jim Bridger, Kit Carson, Tom Fitzpatrick, Joe Meek, Chief Joseph, Black Hawk, and many other trappers and natives. Making the …
