“The parties are advised to chill.” Thus ends Judge Kozinski's judicial opinion regarding the Barbie doll and the Euro-pop band, Aqua, who used her name in a song. “I'm a Barbie girl, in a Barbie world/life is plastic it's fantastic.” Is that allowed or can Mattel, Barbie's makers, sue Aqua for trademark infringement? The court held, no. Some terms enter the public domain and are protected by the First Amendment, the 9th Circuit held. The case is called Mattel v. MCA Records. The second case discussed in this episode is A&M Records v. Napster. Napster was a file-sharing website which allowed one party to upload music onto the site and others to download it. The 9th Circuit, in 2001, held that transmitting a file to a new medium was not “transformative” under the fair use doctrine. This adverse ruling eventually lead to Napster's demise. Mr. Russell Frackman has been an entertainment and IP litigator for many years and has represented Hollywood personalities such as Jack Nicholson, Neil Diamond, Coldplay, and the Rolling Stones with Mitchell, Silberberg, and Knupp. Hope you enjoy this great conversation with an entertainment law veteran!

  Dayne Pratzky   Listen in as Dayne talks about why he’s called The Frackman, coal seam gas mining, why we all matter more than we know and how to be bold, brave and proud when becoming an activist.   TIFF and Human Rights Watch co-present the 13th annual Human Rights Watch Film Festival in Toronto, March 30 to April 7.   For more information about the festival go here.   Watch the Trailer Here.   And find out more info about the film here.   Synopsis   Dayne Pratzky loved the quiet life on his rural block in central Queensland. Then the coal seam gas company arrived, and that changed everything. Legally he couldn't stop them mining his land, but that didn't mean he wouldn't fight. And so began a David and Goliath battle against a $200 Billion industry. Along the way he found love, tragedy and triumph. Frackman is like no other Australian film. It aims to spark a broad national conversation about the risks of our headlong rush into massive coal seam gas development. Can we imagine any other issue that would bring together the likes of Alan Jones and Bob Brown? See it and find out why. Biography Dayne Pratzky is a leading figure in the anti-Coal Seam Gas movement in Australia. Dayne starts his campaign of resistance when the Queensland Gas Company (QGC) begins CSG operations in his community of Tara, Queensland (near Chinchilla). The Tara locals recruit veteran campaigner Drew Hutton to the cause, who then founds the vast Lock the Gate Alliance.   Outraged that gas companies are demanding access to their land, and deeply troubled by the terrible health affects they believe are being caused by the industry, Dayne and his neighbours begin to fight back.   Dayne is an ‘accidental’ activist, having had no previous involvement with environmental campaigning. “I was a roo shooting, pig hunting kind of bloke,” he says. “I’m the most unlikely environmentalist in the world. But when they force their way onto your land and destroy your community, you have no choice but to fight back.”   Dayne discovers early on that the techniques used to extract unconventional gas buried deep beneath the ground have many potential risks. There is a significant chance that the region’s water supply will be contaminated, and kids in his estate are getting sick. Deeply concerned, Dayne startss Gasileaks, a citizen-run watchdog for CSG operations. He is invited to Washington to address a huge rally of Americans opposed to ‘fracking’ and his campaigning takes him to Wyoming and Colorado, investigating the disastrous consequences of fracking in America. “They’re ten years further down the track in the US, and what we are facing at home is an environmental catastrophe that will rival the asbestos disaster,” says Dayne.   In the course of fighting for his community, Dayne sometimes skirts the law and his civil disobedience activities lead to charges of dangerous driving and public nuisance. Undeterred, Dayne will continue touring Australia throughout 2015, helping communities living with CSG to fight back and attempt to prevent the industry’s spread beyond Queensland.   ----------   For more information about my podcasting, writing and public speaking please visit my site here.   With thanks to producer Josh Snethlage and Mixed Media Sound.   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

You might be wondering what coal seam gas has to do with learning, but for ordinary Australian, and now film maker Dayne Pratzky, the Frackman, it's become a major issue. Australia is currently experiencing a "gas rush", and when the Queensland Gas Company arrived at Dayne Pratzky's home to inform him that drilling for coal seam gas was about to commence on his property, a battle started that would see Dayne become a global activist fighting against a multi-billion dollar industry. Dayne learnt much about the coal seam gas industry, but also about himself, and what people can do to help themselves in the face of seemingly insurmountable tasks. This is a message for all Australians, with particular focus on our next generations.

Frackman, this Australian film chronicles Dayne Pratzky's fight against Coal Seam Gas. It is a call to arms to all ordinary Australians. Director of Frackman Richard Todd talks about the making of Frackman.

Friends of the Earth is under attack. And this is just the beginning of an ideological war by the government against all environmental groups.On the ABC 7:30 show aired April 10, Liberal MPs Alex Hawke and Matt Canavan singled out Friends of the Earth as the first of 150 groups they would like to see lose its charitable status. This would mean donations would no longer be tax deductible.  This week, FoE Melbourne Campaign Co-ordinator Cam Walker talks about the politics and the power-brokers behind the the ideological war against ENGOs.And we preview the recently released documentary 'Frackman', a story about one person's campaign against the juggenaut that is the coal-seam gas extraction industry.

The fossil fuel extraction industries are ready to roll across regional Australia - searching for and digging for coal seam gas. They say it's imperative to keep the economy rolling. So do the politicans. The consequences of such extraction seem to be peripheral. John Fenton is an American farmer, and one day the fracking industry knocked on his door with a proposition. This week on Dirt Radio we hear about what happened next, and how he became an accidental community activist.John Fenton's circumstances are being echoed here in Australia. Frackman is a recently released documentary about a local accidental hero who decided to stand up to the mining industry.
