One painting of six from, 'Sea of Love' series.
Davinia Hart was born in the "Black Country" of central England, so-called because of its industrial history of glass and metal manufacture. Although she obtained a university degree in fine art, she regards herself as a self-taught artist. She has had several exhibitions in England and has undertaken commission work. Recently she had an exhibition in Portland, Maine. This was her first show in the U.S. Davinia experiments with various media, technique and themes. She has never been one to explain what inspires her to create. Instead, she prefers to let the viewer wonder. If you find her work to be soothing, exciting, erotic or an image that reminds you of someone in particular, she encourages you create your own story. Please...

The seven-year-old NATO agreement for a 3 percent annual growth in defense spending is once again being honored largely in the breech. In addition to the United States, only two NATO allies are expected to live up to their commitment this year: economically troubled Britain and sparsely populated (4.1 million) Norway.
West Germany, the most important NATO ally after the U.S., will have an expected real growth in military spending of only about 2.4 percent. After adjusting for inflation, Italy`s increase should be 2.3 percent, and will represent just 4 percent of its total budget. The increase of France, a NATO ally but not a military member, will fall short of its 6 percent inflation rate and will for all practical purposes be stagnant. The spending increases of Canada, Belgium, the Netherlands and other lesser members of the alliance will continue to be laughable.

A ``Caravan of Lights`` motorcade to honor AIDS victims is scheduled for Sunday in Fort Lauderdale as hundreds of homosexual activists convene at the War Memorial Auditorium for the annual South Florida Gay Pride Festival.
This is the first year the festival will be staged in Fort Lauderdale. It comes at a time when many gays would rather live quietly than publicly participate in gay activities, according to leaders in Broward County`s gay community.
Nonetheless, festival organizers are requesting that all motorists, both gays and non-gays, turn on their headlights on Sunday between noon and 1 p.m. as a remembrance of victims of acquired immune deficiency syndrome.
Across the nation, the disease has caused 12,008 deaths, including 789 in Florida and 131 in Broward, according to public health officials.
``Just as the state of Florida remembers the seven astronauts of Challenger, this is our way to remember our brothers and sisters, some of whom have unfortunately died,`` said Bob Bernacki, a Fort Lauderdale resident and chairman of the festival`s organizing committee. ``This is a remembrance of the people who have died from AIDS.``
Motorists arriving at the auditorium at 1 p.m., when the festival begins, will form a loosely knit motorcade that is replacing the traditional gay pride parade that had marked other festivals.
This year`s festival, the fifth in South Florida, is expected to attract between 2,000 and 3,000 of South Florida`s estimated 250,000 gays.
The Rev. Grant Lynn Ford of the Metropolitan Community Church in Fort Lauderdale said that many gays see no reason to publicly express their private lifestyles, either because they fear harassment or because other issues, such as economic or professional success, are more important to them.

Is that second feature this one?
I have noticed while playing with some of the images from my previous post that if I added a second, grayscale layer, reduced its visibility to 50%, shifted one pixel to the right and one pixel to the top, and used the "Difference" blend mode it gives a darker image but it makes the "texture" (for lack of a better word) of the image more visible.

One has a pyramid shaped structure in a crater fed by what look like pipes entering them from the op. Then there's one with a strange structure on top of a hill that doesn't conform to the natural surroundings. It does seem to be artificial, but that's not possible, is it? And how about the strange objects seen inside sharply defined edges in depressions?
I haven't the faintest idea. But then why has NASA selected these strange looking landing sites? A far cry from the 'barren dessert' sites of the earlier missions. Are they finally trying to get some answers to some of the anomalies?
The proposed landing sites.
Take a little time to look at these images carefully. The more you study them, the stranger they will seem!

If Minnesotans want to prevent special interests from buying seats on the state's courts, they must overhaul the way they select judges, Chief Justice Eric Magnuson of the Minnesota Supreme Court told a legislative committee Thursday.
Interest groups are spending millions to influence the outcomes of judicial elections in other states, Magnuson said, and unless Minnesota changes its system, it's only a matter of time before big-buck, partisan court campaigns pop up here.
"The storm is coming," he warned.
Magnuson testified at a House governmental operations committee hearing in support of a state constitutional amendment that would create "retention elections" for judges.
In those elections, voters decide whether to retain or fire sitting judges. No other candidates would appear on the ballot.
Under the current system, the only way to unseat a judge is for a challenger to defeat the judge in an election. But 95 percent of judges run unopposed, so there's little serious competition, said Rep. Steve Simon, a St. Louis Park DFLer and chief House sponsor of the retention election bill.
The committee approved the bill on a 14-4 vote, clearing its first hurdle. Two Senate committees approved a companion bill last year, and it could quickly move to the floor this year if DFL leaders decide to put the issue on the ballot this fall. Simon said he is "cautiously optimistic" that the Legislature will approve it.
In addition to creating retention elections, the bill would establish an independent "judicial performance commission" that would measure judges' records and report its findings to voters before elections.
The governor still would appoint judges to vacant seats on the bench.
The legislation was prompted by a 2005 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that threw out a Minnesota law that restricted how much money judicial candidates could raise, barred them from seeking partisan endorsements and prohibited them from taking positions on disputed issues likely to come before the court. Now candidates can do all those things.
That has opened the door for wealthy special interests to spend huge sums to influence judicial elections, former state Supreme Court Chief Justice Kathleen Blatz told the committee.
"Special interests do not support a particular judge because he or she will be fair and impartial. They support judges who agree with their particular agenda. They want partial judges," Blatz said.
"The public has a right to have their cases heard by … fair and impartial judges, not judges who have already weighed in on one side."
But attorney Greg Wersal, the plaintiff in the 2005 U.S. Supreme Court decision and a candidate for the state high court, said campaign spending is not a problem in Minnesota judicial elections and doesn't need to be fixed.
Moreover, he said, the proposed judicial performance commission would be barred from criticizing a judge's rulings.
Challengers are needed to inform the public about judges' failings, Wersal said.

Absolut Hunk sues over HBO show ad
The Absolut Hunk is suing the Absolut Spirits Co. Actor Jason Lewis charged Absolut with using a fictitious "Sex & The City" advertisement that appeared in the HBO show to sell vodka without his permission. Mr. Lewis and Dancing Girls Productions, his manager, said "Absolut Hunk" was promoted as an actual ad contrary to the original intent. The ad had Mr. Lewis' character, the boyfriend of Kim Cattrall's character, Samantha, naked on a bed, with an Absolut bottle strategically placed between his legs. The suit said Mr. Lewis has avoided assignments relating to alcohol, tobacco and guns. Omnicom Group's Ketchum, Los Angeles, is named in the suit along with Absolut parent V&S Group. Absolut declined to comment other than to say it had not been served with the suit, which was filed May 27 in the California Superior Court. Damages were not specified, and no trial date has been set. AdAge.com QwikFIND aap69L
Nielsen, amid protest, rolls meters
Nielsen Media Research launched its electronic people meters in the New York market last week, amid a chorus of concern over its readiness to collect accurate viewing data. On June 2, CBS issued a statement detailing its desire to see Nielsen relax its national roll-out schedule until the new people meters at least meet the approval of the Media Ratings Council, a body established to audit measurement services. Other forces, namely Hispanic-oriented media company Univision and the Don't Count Us Out coalition, also believe the service isn't ready for market. Their concern is that minority viewership might not adequately be counted. Nielsen, a unit of VNU, in response has agreed to keep the existing paper diary system of viewing data in place for the next three months. It will run along side the new electronic data collection.

Oracle assigns media to Starcom
Enterprise software maker Oracle Corp. last week selected Starcom, a unit of Publicis Groupe's Starcom MediaVest Group, to handle media buying and planning, print production and strategic planning. Chicago-headquartered Starcom bested competitors including incumbent Grey Global Group's MediaCom, San Francisco, and Interpublic Group of Cos.' Initiative, Los Angeles in a review handled by SelectResources International, Santa Monica, Calif. The assignment, which is global, requires Starcom to partner with Leo Burnett where Oracle is active, such as the U.S., Germany and China. "Leo Burnett has a robust production solution that fits our needs," said an Oracle spokeswoman. In the past, print production was handled by MediaCom sibling Grey Worldwide, San Francisco, as well as in-house. Oracle spent $30 million in measured media in 2003 in the U.S., according to TNS Media Intelligence/CMR. AdAge.com QwikFIND aap68v

In this thrilling new novel from the author of Industrial Magic, a pregnant werewolf may have unwittingly unleashed Jack the Ripper on twenty-first-century—and become his next target.
Ever since she discovered she's pregnant, Elena Michaels has been on edge. After all, she's never heard of another living female werewolf, let alone one who's given birth. But thankfully, her expertise is needed to retrieve a stolen letter allegedly written by Jack the Ripper. As a distraction, the job seems simple enough—only the letter contains a portal to Victorian London's underworld, which Elena inadvertently triggers—unleashing a vicious killer and a pair of zombie thugs.
Now Elena must find a way to seal the portal before the unwelcome visitors get what they're looking for—which, for some unknown reason, is Elena.

This unimproved property protects scenic ridgetop and critical public watershed.
Property Name: Lenox Mountain
(aka: Osceola Realty Trust)
Towns: Lenox, Richmond
Activities: Hiking, hunting
Special features: Scenic ridgetop
Hiking difficulty: Expert — no trails; rugged terrain
GPS: 42.3914, -73.3172 (center of parcel)
This wooded parcel is a small (29 acres) but important piece of the conservation puzzle that is Yokun Ridge. Most of Lenox Mountain (the middle section of Yokun Ridge) is protected by Mass Audubon or by the Town of Lenox. This parcel completes a gap in the protected matrix.
The parcel ("Osceola Realty Trust") is mostly covered in hemlock with a small section of hardwood forest at the highest points. With extremely steep slopes, this forest's role in slowing erosion is essential.
A nearby parcel (16 acres, "Williams") was conveyed by BNRC to the Town of Lenox in 2016. The parcel protects a portion of the watershed of the Town of Lenox drinking water supply. The property was obviously logged in the not-too-distant past, but before BNRC acquired it in 1982. Today's forest is a typical hardwood forest with lots of maple, red oak, and lots and lots of beech.
This parcel has no parking and no trails. Access is from the fire road at the end of Osceola Road in Richmond.

I Had My Aura Read and It Was Better Than Therapy
The camera takes a first exposure of your physical self and a second of your energetic overlay.
When batteries get drained or dirty they tend not to work so good. When it comes to crystals, "dirt" can mean literally that -- the dust collected just from sitting around, looking pretty -- or it can mean the energetic garbage it collects from human use. They can also simply get tired.
"Crystals and Their Use: A Study of At-One-ment with the Mineral Kingdom," written by Page Bryant (as channeled by an entity named Albion) was one of my favorite books on crystals from my teen years. All high school alternative kids are, at one time or another, drawn to the occult and metaphysical. It is a rule. This is when we're often most susceptible to the mysterious fringe wisdom of the self-published, in all their misspelled and ungrammatical glory. Thankfully the language abuse is extremely minimal in this book.
In the intro, says Page/Albion, "We are all familiar with the Atlanteans and their use of crystals as batteries to store power." Are we not? Real quick, just in case you need a refresher: For all sorts of reasons, from molecular structure to basic good looks, crystals retain information that humans can tap into to heal, energize, or store or impart information.
"Crystals and their Use" has all kinds of very specific tips on cleaning and clearing crystals, which is basically hitting the reset button to restore and reactivate them. For the Kundalini crystal (used on the first—aka root, red, anal, or base—chakra), it is recommended that you bury your crystal in the ground for at least 24 hours. "This is so that it can absorb the magnetism of the Earth which can be used to stimulate and balance the 'serpent fire' in the shaft of the spine," Page/Albion says. The crystal associated with the second, or orange, chakra should be stored in an orange container or orange piece of fabric. The crystal for the Heart (fourth, green, etc.) chakra is supposed to be kept in an airtight container, pulled out only when applied for healing.
I'm sure all of this is well and good, and that many a shaman, re-visiting Atlantean, and plain ol' seekers of abundance and enlightenment have gotten some great results from these processes. I, however, find stuff like this to be a little tedious, precious, and unnecessary. I do not want to treat my crystals like a jar of kim chee, or suffocate them, or have to find them special color-coordinated clothes in order for them to feel happy.
I opt for rinsing, then soaking them in a bowl of purified water in the sunlight for a while. Easy peasy. I'd like to consider myself sensitive to their needs, and they seem pretty cheerful with this arrangement. Though I have occasionally positioned them so they soak up the rays of an entire moon cycle, from new to full, when I want to get all mystical high-school style—and really, from time to time, who doesn't?

- Some of the subjects are set up so that multiple children in the same family can learn together.

- Lessons are by grade level and by day.
- EP is set up to be self-guiding for older children and teenagers.
- The reading selections are great.

- Some of the reading may be too advanced for the grade level.
- The layout can be tricky to understand at first.
User tips-
- All of the levels and subjects are listed on the sidebar.
- It's helpful to read the FAQ and how-to-use pages.

Summary from company- "We exist to help families homeschool. We enable families to homeschool who thought they couldn't because of a lack of finances, a lack of time, or a lack of know-how. Others join EP just because it's easy and fun and they're confident of the quality of education. EP seeks to free families from the burden of pursuing the "perfect" and encourages them to let it be "enough." Each family and each child is different and we seek to provide the resources to enable your family to be who you were meant to be. And yes, it's all free. You'll need paper, pencil, etc. and some minor supplies if you choose to do the experiments and art projects, but all of the reading materials, etc. are all free and online."
What Friends are Saying About Easy Peasy All-in-One Homeschool
Easy peasy all in one homeschool is a great place to start! Pinterest helps a lot too! -Apryll
we enjoy easy peasy www.allinonehomeschool.com the lessons are short, yet effective, your kids would be able to study the same concepts in science and history, but the older child would study them in a little bit greater depth. there are no books to buy, unless you really want to use paper books for reading as opposed to a link to the chapter you are working on online, and minimal prep time and effort on the part of the parent. occasionally you will print off a worksheet, but mostly everything is online.

Wacker & Lane Explain "Spider-Verse" Infestation on "Ultimate Spider-Man: Web Warriors"
Earlier this year, Marvel announced "Spider-Verse," a multi-part Spider-Man arc written by Dan Slott and illustrated by Olivier Coipel, and starring "every Spider-Man ever." (For the most part, at least — a couple are legally tricky.)
But "Spider-Verse" won't be contained to just the printed page. It's also coming to the upcoming new season of the Disney XD "Ultimate Spider-Man" animated series. The third season will be subtitled "Web Warriors," and feature the introduction of multiple Spider-Men — with characters like Miles Morales (the current Spider-Man in the comic book Ultimate Universe) and Spider-Man 2099 depicted in animation for the first time. Along with those two, the "Spider-Verse" arc will also include Spider-Man Noir, Peter Porker the Spectacular Spider-Ham, Iron Spider and "Petra Parker," the Amazing Spider-Girl.
RELATED: What is "Ultimate Spider-Man: Web Warriors"
CBR News spoke with "Ultimate Spider-Man: Web Warriors" co-executive producers Stephen Wacker and Cort Lane to find out how the cross-platform "Spider-Verse" happened, the approach in bringing Spider-Man 2099 and Miles Morales to animation, how all these guest stars affect the show's regular cast and, of course, lots of talk about Spider-Ham.
CBR News: Cort, Steve, let's talk about the timing of the new "Ultimate Spider-Man" season — even though the "Spider-Verse" animated and comic book stories are different, it's still a unique case of cross-media synergy, especially given the different lead times between comics and animation. How did that come together? How far into the "Spider-Verse" comic book process did it become clear a version of it would also work for the "Ultimate Spider-Man" series? And Steve, how much did your transition from Marvel Comics to Marvel Animation factor in?Â
Cort Lane: Steve has actually been a part of our "Ultimate Spider-Man" story summits from the very beginning. As we were starting to flesh out our new multi-arc approach to Season 3, Steve, [Chief Creative Officer] Joe Quesada and [Publisher] Dan Buckley all talked about the plan for "Spider-Verse" in publishing — and we jumped! It just felt natural.
Stephen Wacker: Slott has been planning "Spider-Verse" for quite a long time (started in the the Carter administration, I think!), so we all knew that's where we were heading in the books for quite a while. I think the initial impetus for doing a version of Spider-Verse in animation came from Joe Quesada. One of his many jobs is finding ways to bring the different creative arms of Marvel together.
There are a good number of Spideys to choose from — while some, like Miles Morales or Spider-man 2099, are a little more obvious, there's also some unexpected choices like Spider-Man Noir in this mix. How did you decide which Spider-Men to focus on for this story?
Lane: Miles and 2099 were the easy choices. And everyone (especially [writer] Paul Dini) wanted to do Spider-Ham. Then we started to think about the kind of character stories we wanted to tell to our young audience, and the crazy places those kids would want us to take Spidey. Noir was maybe a little bit more for us – an interesting creative departure. I'm a big Dashiell Hammett buff, so playing with the Roman Noir tropes was especially fun for me.
Wacker: This is the first time I've heard that Cort is a Hammett fan. I am as well, so we finally have some thing to talk about!
RELATED: "Ultimate Spider-Man: Web Warriors" Head Across "Spider-Verse"
Let's talk about the individual Spideys — obviously bringing Miles Morales to animation for the first time is a major thing. How easy was it to transition Miles from comics to TV? And was Brian Michael Bendis closely involved?
Lane: Brian is with us at the story summits as well — and has written some incredible scripts for the show. So he rolled his sleeves up here and helped our writers, Kevin Burke and Doc Wyatt, get Miles just right. Miles plays really well and looks very cool animated, and he's just so relatable for our audience. It was really smooth — the surprise was how outrageously scary the Ultimate Comics Goblin was.
Spider-Man 2099 is also a first-timer to animation. What's fun for you about bringing him to the show?
Lane: The big idea from the very beginning was to animate his futuristic world and high-tech look in CG animation. Very ambitious and risky, since that meant a completely different production process and translating Spidey and Goblin in CG as well. But we try to outdo ourselves every season and this seemed like a bold move, and we are totally thrilled with the results.
A previous interview mentioned the origin of "Petra Parker" stemming from a comic book pitch. Steve, anything more you can share about those previous plans, and how they ended up in the animated "Spider-Verse"?
Wacker: I think this is an example of all of us pulling water from the same well. I pitched the basic idea for a new Spider-Girl where you swapped all the genders a few years back with Kelly Sue DeConnick. It never went anywhere, but it did eventually lead us to working on "Captain Marvel."
I think the animation folks just happened upon the same idea by coincidence and their execution of the premise is really fun. It's my favorite segment of "Spider-Verse."
There's also Iron Spider, which in the comics was Spider-Man wearing an Iron Man-tailored armor suit, but I'm guessing in this instance it's a separate character. What can you say at this point about this take on "Iron Spider"?
Lane: I'll let the cat out of the bag: Amadeus Cho becomes the Iron Spider and is a series regular now. He's younger and even smarter than Peter (which annoys Spidey), so he can do some very impressive things with the suit. But he has a lot to learn about being a hero. So they start as super hero frenemies, and then Amadeus realizes he can learn a lot from Spidey.
Then there's Spider-Ham, who we've sort of seen already in "Ultimate Spider-Man," after Peter Parker ate an enchanted hot dog. But is this a more "traditional" Spider-Ham?
Lane: This is a full-on, classic publishing version of Peter Porker. And it is glorious and really funny. We even get some cameos from other heroes in Spider-Ham's world.Â
Wacker: This is the first time "Peter Porker" and "Classic" have ever been in the same sentence. So write down the date.
Our animators clearly had a blast on Spider-Ham and they nailed the atmosphere and humor of classic funny animal cartoons. My hope is we get a whole Spider-Ham series out of this! (And if that last sentence made it through our publicity and brand management teams, I'm as stunned as you are!)
Beyond the Spider-Verse arc, there's also plenty of other guest stars known to be showing up, including Agent Venom. Storyline and character-wise, what helped inspire which Marvel names would be introduced into the show this season?
Lane: The "Web Warriors" theming inspired a lot of them, obviously. But a lot of the choices were driven by story. Since Spider-Man became a hero, a lot of other younger heroes have been popping up, often inspired by Spidey. It Peter takes his "great responsibility" seriously, he has to see what he can do to help these young heroes — training, mentoring, resources — and so we selected heroes that would allow us to play out that relationship in interesting ways. Some of the heroes don't want Spidey's help. And maybe some even go down the wrong path. Then Spidey is even more challenged to help them.
With all of these characters coming in, how big of a role will there be in "Ultimate Spider-Man: Web Warriors" for the regular supporting cast of Nova, White Tiger, Power Man and Iron Fist?Â
Lane: Oh, they will be there too, and not necessarily always get along with all these young heroes. Getting the two groups to respect each other is a big challenge for Peter. And loyalties will divide him at times.
To wrap up — are Man of Action (Steven T. Seagle, Duncan Rouleau, Joe Casey, Joe Kelly) still involved in the show?
Wacker: Man of Action have been spearheading "Marvel's Avengers Assemble Season 3," so their dance card is filled. So this season of "Ultimate Spider-Man" is headed up by two of the most exciting writers in animation today Henry Gilroy ("Hulk: Agents of S.M.A.S.H.;" "Star Wars: The Clone Wars") and Eugene Son ("The Super Hero Squad Show").
Both Henry and Eugene are big-time Marvel heads and absolutely fearless writers, so it's been a blast seeing them tear into the Marvel sandbox. They're leaving almost no Spider character unturned, and I think this might be our most exciting season yet.
"Ultimate Spider-Man: Web Warriors" debuts August 31 on Disney XD.

Worried about sun damage? Reverse the effects with a skin peel
Most of us love soaking up the summer sun. We feel happier and the vitamin B we get from sunlight is fantastic for our general health too. However the sun also causes damage to our skin. You probably can't even see the damage that has happened as most it isn't visible to the naked eye. Sunburn and freckles are the external signs of sun damage but they only tell a fraction of the story.
Skin Peels
One popular treatment for sun damaged skin in to use a chemical peel or skin peel. We offer several different formulas but the one we recommend for sun damage and hyperpigmentation is Skin Tech Easy Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) peel.
Easy TCA peels are a powerful formula that must be administered by a nurse or doctor, not a beautician. However, when applied in the proper setting by a professional it is one of the safest peels and most effective peels.
An Easy TCA peel requires multiple applications over a period of about a month. If you choose this treatment you'll need to visit once a week to have the peel applied. Following the application and removal of the peel your skin will begin to flake and peel, causing some irritation and revealing some redness. Although these results may look a little unpleasant your skin won't experience any actual 'downtime', meaning you can go about your normal routine if you wish. There's no need to stay away from sunlight. Each peel will target the uneven skin discolouration, lightening it and reducing the sun spots that have built up at the surface and deeper dermal layers.
Once treatment is complete your skin will look fresher, feel firmer and your sun spots will be greatly reduced.

Metaverse. Law and the virtual world

1 Metaverse Law and the virtual world Left to right: Richard Stockton, of Banner & Witcoff; Monday Beam, from Second Life; and Janet Garetto, of Nixon Peabody
2 Pondering the reality of a virtual world Photo by Callie Lipkin
3 feature < Virtual In the online three-dimensional virtual world of Second Life, users can visit and create their own communities on islands like this one owned and developed by the Chicago lawyer behind avatar Monday Beam. By Maria Kantzavelos In a world far removed from his criminal defense practice on LaSalle Street, the lawyer known as Monday Beam has not only put out his shingle on the spacious top floor of a skyscraper that also houses a Cineplex and an art gallery, but he is also the owner of that upscale high-rise, the island on which it sits, and several more islands touted as premier, organic destinations featuring a mix of modern residential living and state-of-the art retail offerings. While juggling more than a dozen inquiries a day from clients who sometimes take the form of a winged fox; or a dancing fairy in funky, pink attire; a robot; or an elf, the sleek and always courteous Beam who can fly like Superman if he doesn t feel like walking around his base of operations runs a series of furniture stores, clothing boutiques, and car dealerships stocked with products emblazoned with his own brand name. The legal matters he handles tend to focus on issues related to land disputes or intellectual property. But he has, on occasion, stepped in to assist clients in playing out divorces or child custody battles. Many of Beam s clients are known as furries, who carry themselves with both animallike features and a humanoid framework. They ll come and talk fully legitimate business with you, as if wearing ears and a tail is completely normal, and I make nothing of it. I m so accustomed to it at this point that nothing here fazes me, the lawyer said. That s because all of this, and far more, takes place in Second Life, the three-dimensional online digital world where users like the real-world sole practitioner behind the computer-generated figure, or avatar, known as Monday Beam can create their own content, using 3D modeling and scripting tools provided by Second Life developer Linden Lab, and pretend to be whomever, or whatever, they want to be. In Second Life, whose San Francisco-based developer boasts that about 15 million accounts have been set up since opening the software to the public in 2003, people from around the world can interact with each other in real time using voice or text chat, assuming the form of an avatar that can be customized to suit all sorts of imaginations. My avatar is basically me. Of course, he s probably much more handsome and better dressed, said the 37-year-old lawyer who operates as Monday Beam in-world, the word fellow residents of that metaverse use to distinguish that simulated setting from the real, physical world. The lawyer behind the avatar moniker Monday Beam asked Chicago Lawyer to withhold his real-life identity for purposes of maintaining the role-playing nature of Second Life, where he considers his interactions with other avatar clients to be fictional in nature. ( Stretching the imagination But the virtual world of Second Life is more than a mere game for many of its residents, including Beam, who said he just might accumulate enough Linden dollars the fictional currency used for in-world transactions that can be exchanged for actual U.S. dollars to reach the equivalent of his real-life income as a criminal defense attorney in a few years. While the technology is similar to so-called massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPs), like the popular World of Warcraft, there aren t any points or levels in Second Life, said Benjamin Duranske, an associate in the Palo Alto office of Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman, where his IP practice focuses on the emerging area of virtual law. It s a social and an economic environment with open content creation tools where any user can create just about anything they can imagine, said Duranske, who is the author of Virtual Law: Navigating the Legal Landscape of Virtual Worlds, published in 2008 by the
4 Virtual > feature Lawyers, in the form of avatars, attend a continuing legal education seminar offered by the SL Bar Association, a lawyers group in Second Life. American Bar Association. Second Life provides this big sandbox and all the toys for users to build whatever they like. But if you see a house, a horse, it was very likely created by a user. That said, the places to visit, or things to do in Second Life can seem endless. Within minutes, an avatar can teleport from such re-created places as the Great Wall of China, to the Louvre in Paris, and on to an inner tube floating along the Dead Sea, or a hike in the Andes Mountains. Avatars can hold down jobs as dancers or bartenders in one of the many nightclubs created by fellow users. They can meet for a chat at a virtual café, take in a movie or concert with avatars from around the real world, plan or attend extravagant weddings, or even visit virtual brothels. Reuters is among the news agencies with a bureau in Second Life, covering the activity there. And, while social scientists have tapped into virtual worlds as a resource for study, and numerous universities maintain a presence on Second Life as a potential medium for distance education, panel discussions, or alumni networking, some real-world companies and businesses like IBM, Adidas, and Nissan are using virtual worlds as a new form of advertising. Duranske, who has an avatar named Benjamin Noble in Second Life, formed the SL Bar Association, which counts as members about 150 real-world lawyers, law students, or people interested in becoming lawyers. Some law schools maintain a presence there, like Harvard s Berkman Center for Internet & Society, which has held multiple classes in Second Life. And Silicon Valley s Santa Clara University Law School recently claimed to be the first law school to use Second Life as a recruiting tool when it held a workshop in January for prospective students on Santa Clara Island. While some real-world law firms have created outposts in Second Life, the virtual world has also seen Judge Richard A. Posner of the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, in the form of an avatar resembling the jurist. Posner made a visit to Kula Island in 2006, to discuss his book, Not a Suicide Pact: The Constitution in a Time of National Emergency. I find it interesting just for the merger of the real world and the electronic world, Posner said in a recent interview. As these massive multiplayer online video games become more realistic, the line between the electronic world and the so-called real world becomes blurred. A vast legal landscape Along with providing users with the infrastructure and freedom to create just about anything they can imagine, Linden Lab grants users intellectual property rights in their creations. Add a fairly vibrant economy to the mix (at press time, the Linden dollar exchange rate was about 263 Lindens per one U.S. dollar) and lawyers have the fixings for an intriguing discussion point from which to explore the legal issues that can arise from the expansion of virtual worlds. One of the many open legal questions that Posner finds interesting relates to taxation on income derived through virtual transactions. If you actually get real American dollars, and make a profit, that s taxable, Posner conceded. But suppose you re just accumulating these Linden dollars and you haven t converted them to U.S. dollars. Is that taxable? If I were selling something in France and getting paid in francs, I d have to pay tax on them. Could Linden dollars be treated the same? The question would be: Is a profit in Linden dollars, itself, taxable the way it would be a foreign currency? Or, Posner said, Suppose you have an avatar and you have a store, or something like that, and some other avatar comes along and destroys it. Can you sue that person? When I gave my talk, there were a bunch of explosions. Some kind of cube would come across the audience and obliterate part of the audience, Posner said. I don t think it actually injured any avatar, but there was certainly some disruption. I think Linden regulates that, but the question would be: What if someone else s avatar somehow destroys your property? It s a question. Do you have rights outside your contract with Linden?
5 feature < Virtual Besides attracting some users who are reportedly making a portion of their real-life living in Second Life many of them doing so by creating and selling virtual services and items for fellow avatars, like parcels of land, and digital homes, clothes, gadgets, furniture, jewelry, and even hair, skin and sets of detachable genitals this free-form social virtual world for adults has captured the attention of legal scholars and law practitioners looking in from the real world especially those who focus on intellectual property. We like to see what s new and hot in our field, and this is what s new, said Janet M. Garetto, a partner in the Chicago office of Nixon Peabody, where her practice focuses on IP counseling and litigation. A lot of clients as of yet aren t really thinking about it, but I m sure more will become more aware of it, and find they can market and brand themselves in another place, where you have a different end-user. We re interested as lawyers in this field, because we know our clients are going to have questions about it, Garetto said. Plus, it s a fun and dynamic thing that s going on. For many IP lawyers, like Richard S. Stockton, a partner in the Chicago office of Banner & Witcoff, thinking and talking with colleagues about these wide-ranging legal questions and how traditional legal principles could be applied to this immersive, interactive 3D setting serves as a helpful exercise for keeping their skills primed for a new wave of online worlds to come. It s an academic exercise, in some ways, but we know it s coming in the real world as well. People are analyzing these issues more and more, Stockton said. This has gone from this off-the-wall sort of thing for people to do in their homes after midnight, to something where there are real legal issues that are gradually emerging. We ve created this virtual microcosm of the real world. Are the laws of the real world going to apply to the microcosm? When you actually see it come to practice, it s really kind of neat. Many lawyers and scholars who follow the legal issues posed by the existence of Second Life or other virtual worlds like There, and Project Entropia, or the many others that cater to a youth audience, like Club Penguin, or a newer teen version of Second Life are seeing these game-like platforms as a harbinger of the 3D Internet. Many people believe it is all but inevitable that we will see 3D content as part of the mainstream Internet presence for mainstream businesses in the relative future, said Duranske, who serves as co-chair of the ABA s Virtual Worlds and Multiuser Online Games Committee. Formed in 2007, the ABA committee addresses issues arising from the popularity and expansion of virtual worlds, including issues related to virtual property rights, virtual securities trading, crimes committed in virtual worlds, taxation of transactions of virtual property, and the legal rights of participants. Attorneys are interested in this space because of what this space represents, and the likelihood that there will be a huge influx of users into this space in the next few years, Duranske said. Interfaces look more and more like reality to whatever degree they can, based on the technological limitations. As 3D content becomes something that s technically feasible, we re going to be interacting with our computers that way. To the extent that is true, wrestling with the peculiarities of such 3D online spaces is important to lawyers like J. Michael Monahan, a partner at Pattishall McAuliffe, where his practice focuses on trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets involving software and information services, including video games. It may not require a whole new body of law, but you will need to sort through good old- fashioned IP law, contract law, and everything else, because it will be the setting, Monahan said. Stockton and many other lawyers interviewed for this story likened the scenario to the one that played out in the early 1990s, when the Internet was opened to commercial traffic and people questioned whether the laws of the real world would apply. It s sort of a new frontier and a new dimension of online worlds, and it takes the Internet to the next level, Stockton said. Second Life started out as a gamer s distraction and now, here we are a few years later, and I really do think it poses practical mainstream legal questions that are truly untested, just in the same way that the World Wide Web and domain name laws, were untested back in the early 1990s. Evan D. Brown, a Chicago associate at Hinshaw & Culbertson and the author and publisher of InternetCases.com, a blog that tracks developments in Internet and technology law, agreed that virtual worlds like Second Life provide a unique context from which to explore the issues. At a fundamental level, it s still just communication over the Internet with others. But the way that communication is embodied more closely resembles the real world, Brown said. It s so much more interesting to think about the types of things that can arise when you re dealing with anthropomorphic features in a game, rather than lines of text on a screen. I think that s why it is, perhaps, more intriguing than other Internet issues that have arisen before. Questions abound Using Second Life as the context, lawyers said, the activity among users gives rise to a host of legal questions, like one big one: What is virtual property? It s the most interesting puzzle, Duranske said. In property law, which is so old, it s pretty rare to find something that s a completely new area. Indeed, said the lawyer who holds himself out as Monday Beam in Second Life, these virtual items and services amount to bits and bytes on a computer. People are buying virtual property, which is fictional. It s not a tangible, physical thing, the lawyer said. But it still has value. People have found value in virtual objects. That translates to real-world, tangible value in U.S. dollars, or euros or yens, or whatever else you re using. As such, Duranske said, if an avatar purchases a virtual hat with real money, it hasn t been decided, but you certainly have an argument that you might in fact own a new kind of property that property law hasn t really addressed yet. We have the same intuitive sense that if somebody pays $10 for a virtual car, that they have something they own something. And, really, the law hasn t said what that is yet, Duranske continued. I expect that will be tested at some point. Now take the example of a knockoff of a Gucci purse for avatars. It s a little bit abstract when you think about, Okay, I m going to buy a Gucci purse
6 Virtual > feature in Second Life, said Caroline L. Stevens, a partner at Leydig, Voit & Mayer, whose IP practice focuses on trademarks and copyrights. People will buy it, because some people are brand-conscious, and they want that. But, it s not a real Gucci purse that you can use, except in a virtual world. That moves into the hot topic of trademark and copyright infringement emerging in the virtual setting. Can you take a trademark and start selling counterfeit virtual goods? Nixon Peabody s Garetto said. In the real world, you might have to deal with counterfeit Gucci purses on ebay. Likewise, in Second Life, you can make money off what s going on there. You can be profiting off the use in an unauthorized way. Virtual consumers can have a field day shopping for clothes and accessories to spruce up their avatars in Second Life, where unauthorized use of brand names, logos and designs runs rampant, Duranske said. I am certain that you can buy Harry Potter outfits for your avatar that match the Warner Brothers movie look, from anywhere from five to 10 stores, and none of which are owned by Warner, Duranske said. That s true for Nike, Gap, Gucci, Ray-Ban and you ll find many hits for all these brands. That raises another question, Garetto said, How on Earth do you police this new world? For now, Leydig Voit s Stevens said: Trademark owners have yet to fully adjudicate cases involving trademark use in virtual worlds, perhaps because the issues are so murky and damages are uncertain. Are you going to spend a million dollars on a lawsuit that you might lose, to stop damages amounting to $100 a day in Second life? However, Stevens added: As virtual worlds become more popular, the day may come when trademark owners decide to try to address their concerns over trademark misuse in a court of law. Garetto, whose curiosity led her to just one visit to Second Life, offered this prediction shared by many other lawyers interviewed for this story. In many ways, what will probably come down in a lot of these issues may be similar to other Internet-related ideas, she said. When people first started improperly using trademarks in search engines, domain names, any sort of Internet content, a new body of law had to be developed based on fundamental trademark or copyright principals. This is one more extension to that: How are those regulations and cases, and bodies of law that have developed, now going to develop? More recently, virtual services have become the subject of actual federal trademark registration applications. And, unlike trademarks used on websites to market real-world services, the sought-after marks on services that only exist in the virtual world, but could be enforced in the real world, is a unique development that lawyers like Banner & Witcoff s Stockton find fascinating to watch. All trademark rights depend on use. If you don t have use, you don t have trademark rights, Stockton said. Is use in the virtual world sufficient to establish trademark rights? Apparently so, in the eyes of the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office. Alyssa LaRoche of Rutherford, N.J., is believed to be the first to obtain federal trademark registration of her Second Life avatar, Aimee Weber, as a part of her virtual design business known as Aimee Weber Studio. That real-world registration, Stockton pointed out, grants a presumptive nationwide right of exclusivity to use the mark, which gives rise to all sorts of new issues when that right is put into the context of the virtual world. Say you have someone in China who sets up shop in Second Life and is using the same trademark name, Stockton said. Are you going to be able to stop them with your registration? Is Second Life encompassed within nationwide? Another novel question arises if she were to file the trademark registration with U.S. Customs & Border Protection, in an effort to prevent the importation of counterfeit goods. Let s say somebody in China starts making that kind of clothing, or something that is a confusing knockoff to it, and selling it in Second Life. Should there be customs enforcement in Second Life? Stockton said. You have the issue that you can file a U.S. trademark registration with customs, and at the border posts they will monitor and look for counterfeit goods.... What are they going to do? Are they going to have Second Life avatars dressed as customs officials? It s those sorts of questions that keep the wheels turning for IP lawyers like Garetto. Along with jurisdictional issues in a virtual world where the people behind the avatars are interacting and conducting business from places around the globe, could issues involving rights of publicity be raised? In the real-world setting, you as a famous person have rights in your name and, perhaps, things that are associated with you because you re famous, Garetto said. Could a person s avatar become so famous that you could do something to violate or defame their right of publicity? Virtual world vs. real world In settings where virtual creations can collide with reality, the legal issues can stretch beyond those related to intellectual property. Note, for example, the divorce of a British couple who reportedly married in a lavish virtual wedding ceremony held within Second Life and in a real-life wedding in 2005 after the bride claimed she caught her husband s avatar having sex with a virtual prostitute. Some lawsuits over activities stemming from the virtual world of Second Life have made their way to real-world courts. In one of the first lawsuits involving virtual property, a Pennsylvania lawyer in 2006 sued Linden Lab in the Chester County, Pa., Court of Common Pleas, Bragg v. Linden Research Inc., claiming that the service provider froze about $8,000 worth of his virtual assets and refused to reimburse him. Linden Lab claimed the action was an appropriate response to a terms of service violation, saying Bragg acquired his Second Life property in an unsanctioned manner by taking advantage of a loophole in their code. The case was settled, and Bragg was allowed back in with his account restored. In a 2007 dispute, the creator of SexGen Platinum, a software program that enables avatars to engage in sexual acts, filed a copyright infringement lawsuit in the U.S. District Court in Tampa, Fla. The suit, Eros, LLC v. John Doe, which was filed against a Second Life user for allegedly copying and selling the code to the software program, was ultimately settled out of court. Stephen S. Wu, a partner in the Los Altos, Calif., office of Cooke Kobrick & Wu whose avatar, Legal Writer, serves as president-elect of the virtual bar association in Second Life,
7 feature < Virtual sees a profound future for virtual worlds. We will be using virtual worlds as an extension of our physical space to conduct business, to conduct social networking and to practice law, Wu said. I can foresee people having business meetings, or contract negotiations in virtual spaces. I can foresee people having court proceedings that use virtual spaces. I don t know that Second Life is the place where that will occur, necessarily, but other 3D applications will arise. If online social virtual worlds and games are the precursor to the mainstream 3D Internet, Hinshaw s Brown said he could only imagine the possibilities for the distant future, when lawyers could find themselves puzzling through worlds where hologram technology, tactile suits, and even interfacing with a machine merely by thinking via a microchip implanted in the skull could be the setting. These virtual worlds have been able to gain popularity, in part, because of things like more people having broadband connections, more powerful computers, and more memory, more storage, Brown said.
