DAILY NEWS OF NOTE, or, "'Almost Daily' Notes on News and Other 'Stuff'" As of Nov. 8th Less Bush _____________________________________________________ 11-02-05 The Genocide Continues in Iraq 54/ JAR2 Asked to Remove Free E-Books, Only for the Elite? Download While You Can Then I got this, complete with links to sites, promoted by the same author of the first letter, that provide free books on-line:
Hi, John, thanks for removing the
material. Even if you only intended it for your
students, Google found it and made it available to the entire
world. It seemed hypocritical that someone fighting piracy would promote the very thing he is fighting against. So I uploaded some of the books not classifiable as science fiction, back onto the server. I guess we will have to wait and see what happens next. Since the works I have uploaded can not be categorized as science fiction it should not be a problem. The science fiction stuff has been removed. See: IQ Tests, Logic, etc (Students) 11-01-05 Today I got this: Hi, I see that you have a large number of SF stories on your site, http://jar2.com/2/Students/Books/ . I'm Andrew Burt, from the Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers of America, and chair of the Electronic Piracy Committee. While I appreciate that you have only put these works up because you enjoy them and want to share them, unfortunately it's a copyright violation to post them without the authors' permission. Besides being illegal, it in fact hurts the very authors that you like, and their families, and the SF field as a whole. (See http://www.sfwa.org/epiracy/faq.htm for details on how e-piracy hurts authors.) Thus I have to ask that you remove the texts of the actual works immediately. I might suggest instead providing links to e.g. Amazon as authoritative and legitimate sources, or even half.com for that matter. I'd rather have you take them down yourself than have your ISP or a DNS provider disable your entire site as we have to do for hardcore pirates, and we try to take a gentler approach than e.g. the RIAA (suing 12 year old girls on welfare), but the work still has to come down, hence this letter. Anyway, please notify me that you've removed these works entirely from your site. (Remove the files themselves, else Google can still keep them cached.) Thanks. Thanks, Dr. Andrew Burt Chair, ePiracy Committee, SFWA www.sfwa.org/epiracy So I removed everything.

One life was too much, but 2000?! And lest we become soulless let us not forget the even more unbelievable milestone reached by Iraqi civilians not long ago, 30,000. All those lives for the neo-con agenda?

Rosa Parks Has Passed Away 10-24-05 Rosa Parks, the peaceful woman who refused to give up her seat to a white passenger and in doing so changed the world by sparking the US Civil Rights Movement died today. She was 92. We will all miss her. SEE: JAR2.com Photos SEE: Montgomery Boycott: The passing of an icon. _____________________________________________________ REMODELING IN PROCESS 10-18-05 Site Changes SEE: JAR2.com: As you may have noticed the site has changed quite a bit. I have been consolidating the information being hosted on my server into tighter groups and have eliminated some of the pages altogether. For example the Student's page and the IQ page are now one, the Wallpaper page now contains links to almost all of the photographic content on the JAR2 server, and so on and so forth, if you have any suggestions please send them. I hope that some of you are actually reading my stories in the window above and that you enjoy them. That is all for now, enjoy! John
