>I reached out to First Colonial on May 26 after the school removed the link to the form. Vice Principal David Judge was aware of the threats but declined to comment further until he discussed the matter with the school’s media official. The school was open Tuesday with an added police presence, reported ABC’s 13newsnow.

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/star-trek-lawsuit-debate-klingon-888419

>A federal judge gets an earful of Klingon proverbs from a language society intent on making sure that Paramount Pictures can't claim ownership.

>When Paramount and CBS ended last year with a lawsuit over a crowdfunded Star Trek fan film titled Axanar, the two studios probably had no idea that they were about to get mired in an esoteric legal debate about the protectability of the Klingon language. But that's exactly what's happened, and with the language of digital coding hanging in the background, a California federal judge's forthcoming decision could hold significance — so large, in fact, that this otherwise run-of-the-mill copyright action has now drawn an amicus brief from a language society that quotes a Klingon proverb translated as "we succeed together in a greater whole."

>To review, after the Star Trek rights holders filed their complaint, the defendant production company demanded particulars of the franchise's copyrighted elements. In response, Paramount and CBS listed a lot, but what drew most attention was claimed entitlement to the Klingon language. The defendant then reached back to a 19th century Supreme Court opinion for the proposition that Klingon is not copyrightable as a useful system.

>On April 11, that drew an entertaining response from the flummoxed plaintiffs.

...

>"This argument is absurd since a language is only useful if it can be used to communicate with people, and there are no Klingons with whom to communicate," stated a plaintiffs' brief authored by David Grossman at Loeb & Loeb. "The Klingon language is wholly fictitious, original and copyrightable, and Defendants' incorporation of that language in their works will be part of the Court's eventual substantial similarity analysis. Defendants' use of the Klingon language in their works is simply further evidence of their infringement of Plaintiffs' characters, since speaking this fictitious language is an aspect of their characters."

>Before U.S. District Judge R. Gary Klausner gets a chance to rule on a motion to dismiss, he's now being asked permission to review a friend-of-the-court brief from the Language Creation Society.

>The brief, authored by Marc Randazza, begins with background that the Klingon language was invented in 1984 by Marc Okrand for Star Trek III: The Search for Spock.

>"Before that, when actors played Klingons in Star Trek television programs or movies, they simply uttered guttural sounds or spoke in English (Federation Standard)," writes Randazza. "Given that Paramount Pictures commissioned the creation of some of the language, it is understandable that Paramount might feel some sense of ownership over the creation. But, feeling ownership and having ownership are not the same thing. The language has taken on a life of its own. Thousands of people began studying it, building upon it, and using it to communicate among themselves."
>>
>Now, with 250,000 copies of a Klingon dictionary said to have been sold, Klingon language certification programs being offered, the Microsoft search engine Bing presenting English-to-Klingon translations, one Swedish couple performing their marriage vows in Klingon, foreign governments providing official statements in Klingon and so on, the Language Creation Society is holding up Klingon as having freed the "bounds of its textual chains."

>Ultimately, the amicus brief comes back to the theory that Klingon is not copyrightable.

>"What is a language other than a procedure, process, or system for communication?" asks the society. "What is a language's vocabulary but a collection of words? The vocabulary and grammar rules of a language provide instructions for a speaker to articulate thoughts and ideas. One cannot disregard grammatical rules and still be intelligible, and creating one's own vocabulary only worked well for the Bard. Vocabulary and grammar are no more protectable than the bookkeeping system in Baker v. Selden, 101 U.S. 99, 101 (1879)."

>According to the amicus brief — which also nods to the framers of the U.S. Constitution and to Sesame Street theme-song lyrics — no court has ever addressed the issue of whether a constructed spoken language is entitled to copyright protection. Whether or not the Star Trek fan-film case provides that very opportunity is now up to he judge. He could sidestep the legal geekery by agreeing with Paramount that defendants and those interested are making too much of this, that use of Klingon is merely evidence of some larger infringement. Or he could give Klingon speakers everywhere "qapla"!

Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there:
Oh, say! does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

Boston firefighter Steve Perry was already in a heightened state of anxiety as Engine 20 pulled out of the station and headed for 11 Capen Place — his mother’s home, where he grew up.

Then, the dispatcher reported that someone had jumped from a second-story window.

“My heart was racing, racing, racing — we couldn’t get there fast enough,” Perry said yesterday in the wake of the 11:30 a.m. two-alarm blaze.

Perry, 43, a 17-year BFD veteran, told his captain: “That’s my mom’s house. We’ve got to get there. I heard that someone jumped from...

Firefighter Gary Walsh could hear the woman screaming for help but he couldn’t see her.
Then he felt her arm reaching out through the thick, dark smoke that filled the burning apartment building early Tuesday morning. He pulled her close and realized she was holding a baby.
He took off the mask connected to his air tank, held it close to their faces and led the way back outside.
“I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t see. My goal was just to get them out of the building as fast as possible,” Walsh said Wednesday. “Thank God it worked out the way it did. Call it luck, or I don’t care what you call it. It worked out that she’s alive and the baby’s alive.”
The two-alarm blaze broke out just after 5 a.m. Tuesday at the building in the Queen Anne’s Gate complex off of Pleasant Street. Firefighters from Quincy, Braintree and Hingham also responded. All 26 units were left uninhabitable and three were badly burned.
The woman and baby and one other resident were taken to South Shore Hospital to be treated for smoke inhalation. A firefighter also suffered a back injury and is recovering.

Fire Chief Keith Stark said Walsh’s actions saved the woman and baby.
“It was outstanding,” Stark said. “It was courageous. He was doing his job.”
Walsh said the building was on fire when his crew arrived on Ladder 2. Tenants who were already outside said others may have been trapped inside.
Walsh said he and firefighters Walter Langley and Gabe Araujo first made sure no one was in the ground-floor apartments when they heard the woman scream for help. They couldn’t tell whether she was on the second or third floor.
