Multiple Browser Testing Some Recommended Standards - where applicable Core Standards GRAPHICS Provide an alternate text (ALT tag) description for ALL graphics on the website. The ALT-tag allows for a text description of a graphic to reside beneath the actual graphic. This text description is not visible to the sighted user, but is invaluable in describing the image to a text-based user. For example: <img src="graphics/shaw_.jpg" ALT="Picture of Jeffrey Shaw"> When using banners with animated text (or any graphics or movies that need lengthy descriptions), the use of description tags (D-tags) are a good alternative to the length restrictive ALT-tag. A D-tag is a capital "D" that appears next to or below an image, that is a link to a page with a description of the graphic. Because D-tag descriptions appear on their own page, they can be as long as the author needs them to be. Therefore, users can receive more information about the physical description of a graphic image than the ALT-text allows.

This article was published on: Homeownership What you need to know about the rules and restrictions of community associations so that you can better serve your buyer clients. BY ROBYN A. FRIEDMAN Community Living Responsibility to Inform Buyers Restrictions: Reasonable or Not? The Role of the Real Estate Professional All Sheryl Weinstein wanted to do was paint her house. She was ecstatic when she found out that the homeowners' association in her gated community in Boynton Beach, Fla., planned to paint all the homes in the community. Then she found out that she couldn't pick the color. "They said you had to have the same color you had before," says Weinstein, who moved into the community about two years ago. "I don't hate the color of the house, so I'm not opposed to it. I'm just surprised that I didn't get a choice." Weinstein is one of the estimated 50 million Americans who live in developments governed by community associations. "Community association" is an umbrella term that encompasses homeowners' associations, condominium associations, property owner associations, cooperative associations, and similar non-profit corporations established to set policy for homeowners with the ultimate goal of preserving property values. There are about 249,000 community associations in the United States today, up from 205,000 five years ago, according to

In June, the David Bohnett Foundation and the American Civil Liberties Union of Southern California announced the creation of the Bohnett Attorney at the ACLU of Southern California, a staff attorney position that will focus on gay and lesbian civil rights litigation. It is the only dedicated position to be funded thus far by the year-old foundation, which was created by Internet entrepreneur and Geocities founder David Bohnett with an endowment of $32 million. The Bohnett Foundation dedicates its resources based on a founding vision of investing in social change. Gay and lesbian civil rights have long been a priority for Bohnett, who traces the inspiration for Geocities to his own experience as a gay man. ãMy passion for the idea of online communities, my idea for giving away free home pages, came from my own experience . . . It was through my personal experience of coming out that I recognized how important it was to give everyone on the Internet that same chance to speak up about who they are - to give a voice to their hopes, their dreams and their passions.ä The ACLU/SCâs inaugural Bohnett Staff Attorney will be Martha Matthews. She joins the ACLU after years of public interest litigation on behalf of youth and low-income families, most recently as a staff attorney at the National Youth Law Center, where she engaged in impact litigation and legislative advocacy to improve the foster care system and to improve delivery of services to adolescents.

The Supreme Court Weighs In On COPA: What it Means for Adult Webmasters By: Lawrence G. Walters www.FirstAmendment.com On May 13, 2002, the United States Supreme Court reversed the landmark decision of the Third Circuit Court of Appeals, concluding that application of varying community standards to Internet communications does not, in itself, render the Child Online Protection Act ("COPA") unconstitutionally overbroad. This was an unusual case for the High Court in that it was an appeal from a preliminary injunction; the Court rarely agrees to review cases that are not final. The majority of Justices decided to "remand" (read: send back) the case to the Court of Appeals for further consideration of the constitutional issues raised by the parties. The narrow grounds upon which the Third Circuit invalidated COPA were, to be sure, ground-breaking. Striking down the law based on the community standards issue essentially forced the Supreme Court to take the case, reverse it, and send it back for a final decision on the other constitutional issues. Thus, the preliminary injunction will remain in effect while the courts work this out. The Third Circuit Court of Appeal could still readily declare COPA unconstitutional on vagueness or other overbreadth grounds, or even strike the law down based on failure to meet the strict scrutiny test applicable to content-based restrictions on speech. For those Webmasters seeking to provide free hardcore materials on the Web, this additional "hold time" will be seen as a benefit. But for the reasons which follow, the Supreme Court's decision has struck a critical blow to First Amendment jurisprudence, and further complicates the issues relating to online obscenity.

Advertising Online Casinos - An Analysis of the Legal Rights and Risks By: Lawrence G. Walters www.GameAttorneys.com I. Introduction II. Historical Treatment of Gambling Advertisements A. Traditional Federal Regulations of Gambling Promotion The promotion of commercial lotteries and other forms of traditional gambling has long been the subject of state and federal regulation. As early as 1827, Congress passed a law that provided: "No Postmaster, or Assistant Postmaster, shall act as agent for lottery offices." By 1868, Congress made it unlawful to mail any letters or circulars concerning lotteries or other similar enterprises offering prizes of any kind or any pretext whatsoever. Congress extended the mailing ban from letters to cover newspapers through the Anti-Lottery Act of 1890, which was upheld in the face of an 1892 First Amendment challenge. By 1895, Congress eliminated interstate lotteries altogether, and prohibited the transportation of lottery tickets in interstate commerce.

On March 7, 2003 the Third Circuit upheld Judge Reid’s injunction on other grounds (see below). On May 13, 2003 the Third Circut refused the government's request for an en banc hearing. On August 11, 2003 the Justice Apartment appealed this decision to the Supreme Court (again). The plaintiffs filed a reply in September 2003, and the Supreme Court announced that it would hear the case (on non-community-standards grounds) on October 14, 2003.

Could Lead to Historic Firsts in City, State Reporting by the UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism Kamala Harris' Upstart Campaign for DA Could Lead to Historic Firsts in City, State By Traci Curry , November 7, 2003 05:20 PM SAN FRANCISCO If Kamala Harris wins next month's runoff election for San Francisco District Attorney, it would mark a new chapter in the racial history not only of the city but the entire state. Harris, 38, who is of mixed Jamaican and Indian descent, could simultaneously lay claim as San Francisco's first female district attorney, the first official of Asian descent to hold the office, and the first African-American top county prosecutor in the state. The significance of that potential moment, however, is subject to debate among lawyers and other professionals who are following the race closely. "I think it's historic. Given that San Francisco is so diverse, why did it take until 2004 that we have the possibility of having an attorney of color in the position?" asks Gillian G.M. Small, President of the California Association of Black Lawyers. Harris, the daughter of a mother from India and a father of Jamaican heritage, had been a relative unknown at the outset of the campaign. She ran on a platform critical of incumbent Terrence Hallinan's low conviction rate, and promised an aggressive prosecution of violent crimes, especially sexual exploitation and domestic violence against women and children.

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S STATEMENT December 6, 2001 During his opening comments, Attorney General John Ashcroft defended the Bush administration's efforts to combat terrorism and the possible use of military tribunals to try suspected terrorists. Online Special Report: America after the Attacks The U.S. War on Terrorism ATTORNEY GENERAL ASHCROFT: Mr. Chairman, Senator Hatch, members of the Judiciary Committee, thank you for this opportunity to testify today. It is a pleasure to be back in the United States Senate. On the morning of September 11, as the United States came under attack, I was in an airplane with several members of the Justice Department en route to Milwaukee, in the skies over the Great Lakes. By the time we could return to Washington, thousands of people had been murdered at the World Trade Center. 189 were dead at the Pentagon. Forty-four had crashed to the ground in Pennsylvania. From that moment, at the command of the President of the United States, I began to mobilize the resources of the Department of Justice toward one single, over-arching and over-riding objective: to save innocent lives from further acts of terrorism. America's campaign to save innocent lives from terrorists is now 87 days old. It has brought me back to this committee to report to you in accordance with Congress's oversight role. I welcome this opportunity to clarify for you and the American people how the Justice Department is working to protect American lives while preserving American liberties.
