Does Net Neutrality Loss = The New Ghetto
As a growing small media company owner, some of you know of my involvement in lobbying for Net Neutrality, which is the continued absence of regulation in regards to the Open Internet and something everyone should agree on and embrace. This critical issue will be decided, as called by FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski yesterday. In the grand scheme of things, this affects all of us so today I’m encouraging all of you to learn about and support Net Neutrality and to encourage the FCC Board, located below, to vote against a Tier System on the Open Internet on December 21, 2010.

Solving DISD Budget Crisis Will Take Common Sense Solutions
In reviewing the wringing of hands and gnashing of teeth over whose fault the current school debt crisis is in DISD, we can’t depend on the State. Citizens and Corporate Dallas needs to own up and quash the talk about firing or paying off teachers to leave which would raise the classroom ratio to 35/1. It’s time we get real and do what should have been done a long time ago in regards to sales tax, property tax and privatization.
After thinking about it, it’s awfully coincidental that our public school failings, both fiscally and behaviorally, began when helicopter parents, lawyers and overly sensitive public school administrators jacked the Six Grade Crossing Guard.

Preserving Dallas Beyond Today
Michael Amonett with the Old Oak Cliff Conservation League has recently brought an important city-wide issue to our attention that affects everyone who owns a business or lives inside the City of Dallas in or near a neighborhood that is historic, under conservation status or simply values having the ability to maintain what’s left of the cities structural history. The City’s record at historic preservation has been abysmal and without the support by the historic preservation program, it goes without saying, more would have been destroyed.
Katherine Seale with Preservation Dallas has drafted a letter below that details the fee increase in addition to moving the preservation program back to the General Fund from the Enterprise Fund that Amonett, with support by the OOCCL encourages everyone to consider sending to their Council Representative since the vote is tomorrow. Feel free to copy and paste the letter below to this City of Dallas link. DHarris
