RE: Trayvon Martin: Killed for walking while black

From COLOR OF CHANGE PLEASE SUPPORT because Some Things Are Just Wron

Dear friends,

Three weeks ago, 17-year old Trayvon Martin was gunned down by self-appointed neighborhood watch captain George Zimmerman. <b>Despite Zimmerman admitting to following, confronting, and killing Trayvon, he has yet to be arrested or charged with any crime.[1]

Just minutes before Trayvon was killed, Zimmerman had called police stating that Trayvon looked "suspicious." Trayvon was unarmed and walking back to his father's home in Sanford, Florida when Zimmerman accosted him.

At the crime scene, Sanford police botched their questioning of Zimmerman, refused to take the full statements of witnesses, and pressured neighbors to side with the shooter's claim of self-defense.[2] As it turns out, Sanford's police department has a history of failing to hold perpetrators accountable for violent acts against Black victims and the police misconduct in Trayvon's case exemplifies the department's systemic mishandling of such investigations.[3] And now, the State Attorney's office has rubber-stamped the Sanford police's non-investigation, claiming that there is not enough evidence to support even a manslaughter conviction.[4]

Trayvon's family and hundreds of thousands of people around the country are demanding justice.[5] Please join us in calling on the Department of Justice to take over the case, arrest Trayvon's killer, and launch an independent investigation into the Sanford police department's unwillingness to protect Trayvon's civil rights. It takes just a moment:

Justice for Trayvon Martin

Walking home from the store shouldn't cost you your life, but when Black youth are routinely assumed to be violent criminals, being randomly killed is a constant danger.[6] Before Zimmerman decided to get out of his parked car — gun in tow — to pursue Trayvon on foot that night, he called the police to identify Trayvon as a "suspicious person" — apparently because he was wearing a hoodie and walking too slowly in the rain for Zimmerman's liking. Despite being instructed not to follow Trayvon, Zimmerman proceeded to confront and fatally shoot the boy in the chest within a matter of minutes.[7]

The case has been compromised from the beginning. When Sanford police arrived on the scene, Zimmerman was first approached by a narcotics detective — not a homicide investigator — who "peppered him with questions" rather than allowing him to tell his story without prompting. Another officer "corrected" a witness giving a statement that she'd heard Trayvon cry for help before he was shot, telling her she had heard Zimmerman instead.[8] And beyond the questions of professional competence or even the police's disregard for the facts, Florida's notorious "Shoot First" law takes a shooter's self-defense claim at face value — incentivizing law enforcement not to make arrests in shooting deaths that would lead to murder charges in other states.[9]

Sanford has a history of not prosecuting when the victim is Black. In 2010, the white son of a Sanford police lieutenant was let go by police after assaulting a homeless Black man outside a downtown bar. And, in 2005, a Black teenager was killed by two white security guards, one the son of a Sanford Police officer. The pair was arrested and charged, but a judge later cited lack of evidence and dismissed both cases.[10]

Please join us in calling on the Department of Justice to arrest Trayvon's killer and launch an investigation into the Sanford police department's mishandling of the case and when you do, ask your friends and family to do the same:

Justice for TM

Occupy Wall Street Please help it's a Holocaust

My post to Occupy Wall Street in support of the Holocaust of Dogs and Cats by the NY ACC with the support of the ASCPA. I spend time sharing dogs and cats on Death Row in these OverKill shelters advocating and helping snatch them from the Death Rows of the NY shelters and shelters all over the country....Thank God for FaceBook.

Well the Shelters are overflowing because PEOPLE have lost their jobs and their homes and their minds and they have abandoned their pets in apartments, on the streets, and at the shelters ...."Shelter" has become Death Camp for man's best friend. I could go on and on. I write this with passion and not intellect....I understand the odds and the problems and all of it But I don't care...this has to STOP ...Some Things are Just Wrong and this is one of them.

What happens to the animals is what the 1% wants to do with us make no mistake about it.

CarolynBBaker@ OccupyWallSt "4 Million dogs and cats are Executed in US each Year. New York's ACC are Kill Centers....Part of this problem is that people have lost their jobs and their homes and they dump their dogs and cats at ACC hoping that they will be taken care of INSTEAD THEY ARE EXECUTED BY THE HUNDREDS/THOUSANDS.

There is a cadre of Rescue groups and individuals who do their best to Snatch these animals off of Death Row...but lets say there are 20dogs to die we can save 5 ....15 dogs of which 12 have no more than a cold if that ....Are Killed. The people just brought down a bill supported by ASPCA New York Assembly Bill A05449A, which would shorten the hold period (so if your dog was lost by the time you got to the shelter the dog is dead) and add psychological pain as a Kill buzz word. We should all be Executed by these standards.

We need Occupy Wall Street to Occupy the death chambers....bring in food and supplies and help the volunteers care for the animals....bring in Occupy Vets to help care for the animals and bring the press in to EXPOSE this holocaust.....Maybe full tilt on the worse one (Brooklyn) and small watch group at the others occupying the death chambers so they don't transfer dogs to Kill. This needs to be done so that the animals don't suffer ....that people can still adopt...rescue/foster...maybe work with some of the advocate suggested rescue groups...

What they do to the animals they will do to us. I am in Los Angeles...lala land....NY has the balls to pull this off and then maybe it would take off around the country and these dogs would not have died in vain or to make "soap"! "

PS. The ASPCA whose fabulous office is close to the Manhattan shelter...is the biggest POS....they do massive publicity of stopping puppy mills etc. but if those dogs get into ACC shelters they die...They support legislation to Kill quicker and they unite with Animal Abusers....and they use donations for heavy overhead!....Somethings Just Aren't right

"We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals... In a world older and more complete than ours they move finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not underlings; they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendour and travail of the earth." Henry Beston

PS. 2/24 Susan Chana Lask, Esq. I said it before and I'll say it again; for every puppy and dog they've killed, we will give them a name, and represent them by name in court. As of today, I'm behind and on NYC's Death Row Dogs issue. HELLO AC&C, MEET SUSAN CHANA LASK AND ALL THE THE DOGS YOU EUTHANIZED THIS YEAR.

Like I said all the balls of the country are in NY...please export used ones...especially to Cali!

Rich folks think they can do any damn thing they want to ... it's about time for a Change.

Rich folks think they can do any damn thing they want to ...with impunity ...it's time for that to Change.  Glorya Kaufman.

 I am going to tell the story of Glorya Kaufman a Los Angeles philanthropist that was my client beginning in late 2007.   Glorya Kaufman in spirit mirrors the famed Leona Helmsley, the notorious Queen of Mean  it is amazing.   I remembered when maids and others came forth and talked about what a bitch Leona was and how she victimized people.  The Helmsleys (he died and she had to serve the time) spent 8 million dollars on their dream estate and then refused to pay the group of contractors, including decorators, gardeners, painters and landscapers, for their hard labor and materials, they also refused to pay taxes on the improvements and proper taxes on the value of the estate.


 I almost dropped my teeth....This is Glorya Kaufman this is her estate, this is her pledge to UCLA for the Glorya Kaufman Hall , this is the State of California, this is the County of Los Angeles , she hates to pay people and she hates to pay taxes and she victimizes people who have worked or provided services for her and she victimizes the taxpayers of the state of California and the County and City of Los Angeles.  Anyway read the Leona story and you'll catch a hint of what I mean.   

Glorya Kaufman under the Glorya Kaufman Dance Foundation has made major donations to Inner City Arts, Mar Vista Family Center, Alvin Ailey Dance Theater, and the coup de grace Glorya Kaufman presents Dance at the Music Center.   Well I orchestrated all of that under my marketing and development company using 30+ years experience brand marketing in the entertainment industry.  I created the Glorya Kaufman Dance Foundation and created Glorya Kaufman as the "Dancing Philanthropist".  These donations were made 'expressly' to elevate; her profile in the philanthropic community, her negative image as a shrew, a racist, a homophobe and a deadbeat with her additional desire for this cleansing and image raising would help her in her attempts to deprive her children and grandchildren of the family estate.

Hmmm, after having successfully developed unknown artists this was great... here was money that could be used to help children, dancers, etc.   Perfect for me....having worked with difficult artists I could suffer through the nightmare of GK when the end result was kids and dancers with dreams helped forever!  Did I mention these were 'endowments'?    You may think I'm kidding about the 'I did this' but Glorya is functionally illiterate and if I was a psychiatrist I would say bi-polar so that meant content and speeches and co-interviewing etc....fighting about hair,makeup and clothing everything .  A judge and at least one doctor agree with me that she needed help. The really cuckoo won't get help especially rich,mean and cuckoo.

Anyway, right after GK received major accolades and press saving the Dance division of the Music Center.  She freaked out and tried to get rid of people and close down the foundation because she had made a pledge of 20 million and she wanted out of it (I've got the emails)  Firing me in her mind and dissolving the foundation was a plan that she and her so called daughter (wink) Debbie Schwartz another idiot (I was at that time secretary of the foundation) would get her out of the pledge with all the publicity intact (she stopped paying UCLA owing 2million but that's for later).... she couldn't but as the year progressed she just stopped paying people and firing them ignoring contracts etc. from attorneys to gardeners....myself and Solters and Digney who I had brought to the project were included.  Glorya ended owing me 35k on my contract and 35k in expenses which included her phone service and mail service for the foundation and foundation travel -including GK's.  That wasn't enough,she then began to defame me with my contacts, including perjury with linkdin and WIPO.  What a bitch.  

I am going to write more about her UCLA stuff ... County stuff etc. later.  Her perjury's and defamations have been aided by her old accountant Frank Lee, and her newest Harvey Bookstein ....Glorya is old and these two are angling for trusteeships which is ok with me but they feed the evil of her and that makes them complicit because she couldn't think these lies up on her own.   I am going to write more because aside from me and my life....her actions have devastated others ....a vendor that she stopped paying lost his home his family is homeless, another will have to file bankruptcy because these are small businesses that cannot take $35k or $60k or $100k losses.   But lastly, her children called and asked if I could help them with info to stop her from taking away their inheritance and their children's inheritance.... that capped it.   This woman sent me into a spiral of depression that impacted my health and her defamations impacted my ability to work and thus my finances.  I was silent because I didn't want her to stop paying charities like Inner City Arts ...they are paid....Alvin Ailey was another concern however their executive director's actions have created this no longer being a concern of mine.  

This world is filled with people who are just plain evil and the streets of this country are filled with good people who are the victims of this same 'evil' .... I think of her children older now with children of their own still suffering the abuse of this horrible woman.  Evil comes in many forms but it has one objective and that is the destruction of others I can't stop them all but I certainly can use my voice to expose this one.  Some things Are Just Wrong

Occupy Wall Street is All We Got

"In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: Not necessarily to Win, but mainly to keep from Losing Completely." Hunter Thompson 

The thing that is really really sad and really really scary about the importance of the  Occupy Wall Street movement and change is that if nothing changes anyone with less than 1 million dollars in cash is going down.   For the 99% it will be like other countries where the wealthy live well and rule and everybody else lives the best they can with very little.    The millions of the people who are unemployed inevitably will become homeless because you cannot live in this country with no income.  

We can't conceive of the fact that our educational system has become a training ground for servitude....a warehousing of children who will be thrown back into their communities to do the best that they can in low wage jobs and succumb to drugs and crime the stable food of crumbling communities all over the country.   Higher education is becoming more and more out of the reach of the middle class and the poor and is of questionable value in our country anyway. 

Maybe by bringing everyone and everything down to the 'servant'  level the corps will be able to bring manufacturing etc. back into the country and have those jobs done by Americans who will now work for any sum just to survive.   We can take note of Argentina which was once the #6 country in the world with brilliant scientists etc.  Through circumstances similiar to ours corruption , devaluing of the educational system etc. took the country from #6 to 3rd world. There is much much more to the silent war against the people of America....but yes We lost.      People complain that the OWS'ers are doing illegal things and that they are antagonizing the police etc....this is bullshit and it is the fear of the new 'scared to death' American.    If we think that the corporations are going to turn the country back over to us because we 'ASK" in a polite and orderly manner then we are Really delusional...we have seen the way change happened in other countries ...we have no history of anything changing because people marched and the otherside said OK cool we will give you back what we have stolen from you.        

This is NOT a movie!!! There will be collateral damage and I just hope that the kids and people who are on the front lines know that they can NOT expect the support of many Americans who would rather starve to death than face the Truth of where we are and where this is going if there is no change.  

 I am encouraged as in any movement for change a few brave souls stand on the front lines and then others follow until the numbers grow and grow.  I am encouraged with the elders and the police chiefs and the unions and the soldiers coming home and the young people who have witnessed the American dream crumble ....maybe this ragtag coalition can bring down the giant and help to build a country that we can all be proud of.  Cause what we've got now ain't it!

 

WIPO Domain Name Decision: D2010-0034

THIS IS PART 2 of a letter sent to WIPO by Carolyn Baker in July of 2010
http://www.wipo.int/amc/en/domains/decisions/text/2010/d2010-0034.html

Case No. 02010-0034.

The Glorya Kaufman Dance Foundation and Glorya Kaufman v. Carolyn B. Baker
& Associates and “Glorya Kaufman Dance Foundation,” formerly
Domains By Proxy, Inc.

I am listing below the incorrect statements in blue; my statements in black and I have attached

formal documents in support of my statements.

3. Procedural

Complainant provided in its Complaint evidence that it formerly owned the Domain names 
and that Carolyn B. Baker & Associates moved the Domain Names into its own control.

As an independent contractor, I hired Orabor to create the Glorya Kaufman websites…actually
there were two 1^st The Glorya Kaufman Foundation, then when she wanted to do Dance The
Glorya Kaufman Dance Foundation.   The websites were registered by Orabor and on the
 credit card of John Schuning from Orabor.  I am attaching an email from Orabor that states
that they are my subcontractors.  When they resigned from the project they stated to GK
that as subcontractors to me, they were not willing to continue with the project in any way.  

When the website was finished, John put the registrations in my name (as I was the only person
that they were in contact with their contractor and we had to figure out how to get them paid the
 back end of their contract (by this time J.R. Reed had resigned as Treasurer of GKDF and Gk

had stopped paying everyone from marketing to her soil engineers who working to legitimize
her building without permits on the estate. 

As luck would have it GK called Orabor in September to try to get free changes to the website
(eliminate myself and Ron from the site) so we used that as a way to get Orabor paid.   They told
GK they would make changes after they received payment on their final invoice, the check
120days past due arrived in 2 days…upon receipt Orabor notified GK that they did not wish to
continue if I was not involved.   Shortly there after George Merlis whom I had hired to coach GK
 for the speeches I wrote for her, aggressively demanded from Orabor the codes etc. for the
website, (these former friends of mine from Warner bros are artists and not prepared for aggression
 and hostility) they gave them to George, I switched the codes, GK intimidated the programmer
into giving her the new codes, I switched the GKDF.net server.  She owed/owes me 30k+ in
American express expenses for events and travel with and for her and the foundation, and 25k
in payments on my contract, $2,500 April invoice for speeches and website content.  $7500 in
Foundation phone service and foundation mailing address (p.o.box).  The letter that I sent
holding the website hostage came from an online legal page that attempted to help small
businesses recoup their money from deadbeat clients.  (attached are emails and contracts 
that substantiate the claims above)

4. Factual background

In 2008, Mrs. Kaufman founded the Glorya Kaufman Dance Foundation…

I did this on her behalf however my role has been misrepresented. In 2008 after a botched attempt
by GK’s accountant Frank Lee and attorney to create another trust foundation. (which Frank
would have trustee control) which was not what she wanted … when she sent me the draft I
 was horrified…. I said tell them he can do all these things with your permission ….GK said well
he always asks me etc. I said well just tell them…Frank went Ballistic!!!  Mrs. Kaufman was flying
 to Paris and I told her that with her permission I would have a nonprofit Glorya Kaufman Dance
Foundation created by the time she returned.  I hired Foundation Source; I was the contact
(attached signed affidavit by GK) and secretary of the Foundation.  I also instructed with GK’s
 permission Foundation Source to transfer assets of the Glorya Kaufman Charitable Foundation
 and close that trust foundation.  (attached my correspondence with FS and govt documents that
 bear my name/ notorized authorization by G for me to point person for foundation setup etc/
portion of old foundation/emails from GK that are clear re: my position.)

Over the years…..

The Alvin Ailey Dance Foundation

Inner City Arts

The Los Angeles Music Center

The Glorya Kaufman Dance Pavilion at the Alvin Ailey Dance Foundation

The Glorya Kaufman Dance Academy at the Inner City Arts center

Glorya Kaufman Presents at the Music Center

All of these projects were conceived and orchestrated by Carolyn B. Baker.    Mrs. Kaufman wanted
to be the dance philanthropist but had no credentials and no recognition thus I created a marketing
 plan and each of the above recipients worked with me to create a plan that would benefit their
needs and elevate G K’s profile in the Philanthropic community giving her entrée into the dance
 ambiance.  My question to them was how much do you need and what can we name to promote
Mrs. Kaufman    I would put together a proposal with my contact at each and then take it to GK.
go through the 6 months of hell that it took to get anything done (basically because Mrs. Kaufman
has no understanding of how business works as her exposure to the real world was limited
 however she was constantly combative and one never knew from one day to the next when
she would insist on some destructive input.   (attached emails and proposal info that substantiate 
the above)

One day I drove down the hill with Mrs. K and said, ‘ I am going to put together a coalition with
you and Ailey and the City and the Music Center’…her response was, ‘how are you going to do
that?  I laughed and said ”I don’t know …but I’m going to.”  We’re going to have dance and
festivals called Glorya Kaufman presents I did exactly that.   (attached the trail of the MC from
 honoring/ award/speech/etc that substantiates my statements)

Alvin Ailey (The Glorya Kaufman scholars, the GK Pavilion, GK/Ailey camp Los Angeles) we
were going to NY for an event for Juilliard and at the suggestion of a friend went to see the Alvin
Ailey dance theater.  I saw this as a great opportunity to credential her in dance.  They were in the
midst of a 50million endowment campaign and I asked how much would it take to make GK the
second major donor (first is the Weils – Citibank) and what could we name.  Inner City Arts –
The Glorya Kaufman Dance Academy, MarVista Family Center Glory Kaufman Dance Center
was one of the first projects that I got her to fund beginning to give her recognition in the community
 as a benevolent patron and begin her a legacy building. (Mar Vista She had reneged on a promise
to a City councilmember for his and the Mayors favorite project which I considered to be Political
suicide especially since we were trying to clean up her image in Los $300k was the gift, somehow
the last $100k was deposited in an account that was closed in AIG stock which when discovered
by the agency had turned into $16k, suspiciously.  However, GK refused to discuss this with myself
 or the executive director of the charity.  Her then overall accountant Frank Lee, whom I understand
remains her personal accountant, did this.)

Music Center – started with putting together a plan to elevate her profile in Los Angeles and in
Dance because Dance so needed a Angel. Ailey was coming to Los Angeles and the gift had
 already been made to them.  The Los Angeles -Ailey at the Music Center gala is a fund raising
event for the Music Center – so we came up with honoring her at the gala. The Music Center
came with the idea of the  Tour-de-Force award.   So that was set…in the meantime working
with the Music center I learned that the Dance department was in jeopardy because of the
economic times etc. This hit my mind as a marketing/publicity chance of a lifetime.   No one
 including myself thought that in the middle of a recession she would agree to this.  I presented
it to her lying on the flour of her living room …and she could see it and said yes. WOW….
we (talking about Jerry Digney who I brought aboard as publicist…whom she hasn’t paid either)
 held a major press conference….I wrote a major speech for her the awards night, over 300
newspapers and television picked this up as the largest gift to dance ever!    The naming that I
chose was Glorya Kaufman presents (Thus when any dance comes to the music center it is
Glorya Kaufman presents the Bolshoi @ the Music Center GK’s public profile went from low
 to high Between November 2007 and March 2009 due to projects created and executed by
 marketing and publicity.  (attached trail of emails/proposals and correspondence that substantiate 
the above)

Publicity eluded to New York Times – add paid for by Ailey that listed her among the donors.
She has never been in the NYT for anything other than that. ( Part of my branding requests for 
Mrs. K's endowment to AAT Proposal attachement verifies)

Bloomberg – re Ailey  (digney pub)Los Angles times and 300 other publications re the Music 
Center gift – orchestrated by Jerry Digney

(I brought the firm then named Solters and Digney a major entertainment industry pr firm to
 the project in November of 2007.  Mrs. K has fired Jerry 3 times…with the 2^nd being – March,
and the 3^rd being July.   By Jerry’s contract he should have been paid through December 2009
but she stiffed him too in July.)  (attached publicity results with pictures of press conference etc)

Carolyn B. Baker was employed as Executive Director of the Foundation for a time until 
March 2009 Ms. Baker subsequently continued to work for the Complainant as an outside
contractor via her firm Carolyn B. Baker & Associates and her work included website 
development work and marketing services. (I was never employed as an Executive Director of
the Foundation; I lent my considerably nationally well-known professional name as Executive
Director, so that the Foundation could appear as a real functioning entity and not a kitchen
personal foundation. Mrs. Kaufman said she wanted a public image…a legacy. Now she says
after March I was an independent contractor, which contradicts her posture to everyone else
that my involvement ended in March of 2009. …(By contract her email in July ...60 days….
payment through December by automatic 6 month renewable contract) (attached) I have spoken
with the IRS about this claim, filed and been denied unemployment because there was no
 un-tax paid by GK, California State, and Social Security are all unaware of payments to me
as an employee of Glorya Kaufman or the Glorya Kaufman foundation.  No FICA, SDI,
fed tax withheld, state tax withheld etc.  What Mrs. Kaufman fails to mention is that I set
up the Glorya Kaufman Dance foundation was the contact (by signed notarized by GK –
attached) and served as Secretary until I resigned I believe in June of 2009 (attached documents)
concerned with the fact that she refused to operate the foundation as a Legitimate 501c3 and
I did not want my name attached to what will potentially be an IRS problem.

I was always paid as an outside contractor.   The state of California and the IRS have no records
of any withholdings, FICA, unemployment etc.  Because it never happened.   (I have attached a 
copy of my initial 6 month independent contractor contract signed by Glorya Kaufman and my 
long term contract through 2009) I was always paid by invoice to J. Ronald Reed who paid me
and all of the billings related to her marketing and development etc so that she could charge them
to her credit card and receive mileage…after executing a successful November event at Mrs.
Kaufman’s estate, I was given a new contract and a fee raise in December of 2007.   That contract
was in automatic renewal and a 60-day notice.    Mrs. Kaufman has to many people claimed that
she let me go in March.  I have attached an email by a person who had no authority and then by
Mrs. Kaufman, I was secretary of the Foundation and therefore couldn’tfd be fired in that manner)
by email first from a friend’s husband, and then the friend (she called her daughter –not) later Mrs.

 Kaufman sent me an email. It was clear that Mrs. Kaufman and her uninformed advisors had no
 knowledge of the fact that a:  I only held the title of Executive Director in order to give the
Foundation credibility….and since I was an independent contractor I could NOT be paid by the
Foundation as an Executive Director, b:  That a corporate secretary has to be voted out or resign
as I later did due to the continued improprieties due to ignorance or malice that were in opposition
to my ethics as a professional. I knew she was under a lot of stress and just not herself…so I
ignored her emails and as you can see she swore to in her statement to WIPO I continued as
an independent the only revision would be my Always contracted as an independent from 
September of 2007 to what should have been December 2009 if contracts and truth meant anything 
to Mrs. Kaufman and her current advisors. I have included some emails that show I worked on until 
she sent her July termination which would mean that I was due to be paid through December of 2009
, however I was not…..Including apx 30k+ in expenses never reimbursed for overhead and 
subscriptions and travel for and with Mrs. Kaufman.

In Fall 2009, the Domain Names were removed from Complainant’s control. Specifically, in 
November 2009, the registrant of the domain names <gloryakaufmandancefoundation.com> and <gloryakaufmandancefoundation.net> was changed from Complainant’s name to Carolyn B. Baker 
& Associates. In October 2009, the registrar for the domain name 
<gloryakaufmandancefoundation.org> was changed from Network Solutions to 
GoDaddy.com, and the contact information was changed to Respondent’s contact information.

Orabor the company that put together the website were subcontractors to me. Ron Reed t
reasurer of the foundation paid all bills s hat they could go on Mrs. K’s credit card for mileage,
 except the closing invoice (Ron was no longer functioning as treasurer of the foundation as he
had been subject to Mrs Kaufman’s unintelligent refusal to pay vendors (she is famous for this)
Orabor worked solely with me for design approval and content/ which I wrote and provided and
was paid for by separate invoice from my monthly marketing contract fee.  I have attached an
email from an owner of Orabor, stating that they were my sub-contractor and their refusal to work
with GK without my involvement.  I have also included emails that show how like most of the
vendors to the foundation and estate designers/soil engineers/marketing/publicity/etc.  Mrs.
Kaufman refused to pay Orabor their final invoice until she wanted an additional webpage
(one that would not include Ron or myself –attached)I instructed them to say “of course, however
 the final invoice needs to be paid. “ It was sent within 2 days.  After which Orabor informed
GK that as a subcontractor to me they were not willing to work if I was not involved (attached)
this was in September.

The domain names were in John of Orabors name until july/August when Orabor had finished
and they turned the domain names over to me their contractor. They never talked to Mrs
Kaufman until September when she called to request changes…we got Orabor paid…Orabor
resigned the project then…GK had George Merlis her speech trainer who I had hired to work
with her.  Send a threatening email to Orabor demanding the codes…they sent them….  I changed
the codes.  Gk called the programmer and got the codes and changed them again. (The orabor
company are /were my friends Warner Records, they are artists and not equipped to deal
with ruthless aggressive)  I then redirected the website.

The domain name <gloryakaufmandancefoundation.org> is used for the Foundation’s former website. (Complainant has since registered and begun using a different domain name, <thegloryakaufmanfoundation.org>). The domain name <gloryakaufmandancefoundation.com> 
is being used for a pay-per-click website posted by the registrar, and the domain name <gloryakaufmandancefoundation.net> is being used for an “under construction” website.

The Glorya Kaufman Foundation. Org is filled with misinformation and the unlawful use of

Logo’s and copywriter protected pictures. The organizations are afraid to say anything to her for fear that she will stop paying her pledges like she has done with UCLA (2million). Obviously contracts and pledges mean nothing to her. (This is none of my business except these charities are my contacts, which I brought to Mrs. K so I feel responsible for their frustration.)

5. Parties’ Contentions

A. Complainant

Complainant claims that Respondent does not have any right or legitimate interest under the UDRP, 
and that Respondent’s unauthorized registration and use of the Domain Names constitutes bad faith.

The authorization was not unlawful since I contracted the website, and since when is attempting to
collect money owed to you BAD FAITH.  Bad Faith is not paying for services because someone
thinks they are entitled to pay or not pay for services rendered based on a whim or even worse to
denigrate people who have done exceptional work for them which would include the architect of
her renowned estate grounds. …That is Bad Faith.

6. Discussion and Findings

A. Identical or Confusingly Similar

I agree.

B. Rights or Legitimate Interests

The record shows that Complainant owned the Domain Names, and that Respondent was an 
employee of, then contractor for, Complainant. Respondent became the registrant of the Domain 
Names without Complainant’s permission or authorization. Respondent’s registration or acquisition 
of the Domain Names as a former employee or contractor of Complainant does not demonstrate any
 right to or legitimate interest in the Domain Names. In cases involving the registration of domain 
names by employees, many UDRP panels have held that former employees do not have a right to 
or legitimate interest in domain names incorporating the marks of their former employers. See, e.g., 
Ruby’s Diner, Inc. v. Joseph W. Popow, WIPO Case No. D2001-0868 (“An employee or former 
employee is not a licensee, and thus has no authorization to use a company’s trademark or a 
confusingly similar variation thereof without permission. The Policy contains no exception 
providing a special right to use a trademark belonging to one’s employer or former employer in a 
domain name. Consistent with such an interpretation, previous decisions have decisively refused 
to recognize such a right or interest.”); Savino Del Bene Inc. v. Graziano Innocenti Gennari,
WIPO Case No. D2000-1133 (“…this Panel finds that, as a rule, former employees do not have 
a legitimate right or interest in registering in their own name their former employer’s trademark
as a domain name.”).

I contracted the website.  I am not now nor have I ever been an employee of Glorya Kaufman, 
the Glorya Kaufman Foundation or the Glorya Kaufman Dance Foundation 501c3 a foundation 
which I was by Mrs. Kaufman's signed/notarized document authorized to set up and supervise all
 necessary documentation etc. with Foundation Source.  Also that Respondent was never paid as 
Executive Director of the Foundation, however she was the Secretary of the Foundation.  
Documents attached.

The rest of this section, the demand which was no more threatening than what a vendor would write 
to any deadbeat client.  As a matter of fact I took the wording from a letter on a website designated 
to helping vendors get their money from deadbeat clients short of taking them to court.   Actually 
GK and/or the Foundation owe me 60k which includes documented expenses on my American 
Express card that covers events and travel with and directly related to GK.

I don’t care about the website at all I consider my letter to be simply a strong attempt at collection 
of debts owed to me contractually!!!!

C. Registered and Used in Bad Faith

The authorization was not unlawful since I contracted the website, and since when does holding an asset in an attempt to collect money owed to you BAD FAITH.  Bad Faith is not paying for services because you think you entitled and that rules and laws don’t apply to you. 

Bad Faith is obtaining a ruling on a foundation of pure fabrication. Bad Faith is not paying people
what you owe them … bad faith is denigrating someone’s expertise and their achievements.
Bad faith is Lying or is that Bad Character…whatever…..Bad Faith is being a dogmatist and
 pretending to be a humanitarian.

THE RULING ON THE WEBSITE WAS FROM A CASE THAT CONCERNED AN 
EMPLOYEE OF A COMPANY SO IT IS FAULTY IN ITS CONCEPTION AS I WAS NOT 
NOW NOR HAVE I EVER BEEN AN EMPLOYEE OF GLORYA KAUFMAN OR THE 
GLORYA KAUFMAN DANCE FOUNDATION.

 ----------------------

That's enough of these details, I have contracts, signed and numerous documents, letters sent 
by Mrs. K to my contacts, sworn statements from officials about disparaging comments by her and her 
business manager  Harvey Bookstein (Harvey made negative statements to long time collegues of 
mine and others who in a defamation suit will be subpoenaed.
Some Things are Just Not Right and they deserve to be brought to light.
