NetNeutrality, Normal Lane and Fast Lane, Now, and in the Future

Robert Graham, Errata Security

Re Vox got NetNeutrality wrong, 11,10,2014

And so have all the articles in the NY Times, and others.

They hint about " Fast Lanes " but never say or explain that we NOW have
fast lanes, of many types NOW.

Your article is very clear for people with some technical knowledge and know
the acronyms. 

If you or one of your followers, can show, using a graphic, how, the many
classes of content, originate, the paths taken, for each, to the end user,
I believe a flow chart, or tree type diagram would clearly explain the Internet
paths we NOW have.

The " Standard Internet speed" ,  by the provider does not take
take the best path to the end user. If content providers construct a 
" SHORT CUT " , and you are willing to pay for it OK.
This is the system we have now.

Any one can make a blog on the internet, and that blog can be seen
any where in the world, at the speed the TWO ends provide

When it comes to competition, between cable companies, That should
be a much more open market. That, to me is the heart of 
NeteNeutrality.  

Regulations should address: universal access, availability, affordability,
and rules of transmission.

ISRAEL, PRE AND POST 1948 WITH A Weiss FAMILY ADVENTURE !

Reflections:Israel,Pictures At Birth, & Later !

LIFE Magazine, Photos of Life in Israel in 1948 !

Director, CIC Israel Office
May 17, 2010 – 3:27 pm by David Weinberg,

I encourage you to view this incredible photo archive, particularly the first section with photos from the fall of the Jewish Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem in 1948. It is a stunning reminder of the precarious situation of the Jewish state 62 years ago, and a salient warning, I think, against any suggestion to redivide Jerusalem!

Magnificent, long-forgotten photos!
The photographs and accompanying text by researcher Ben Atlas is divided into three parts, each linked below:


   Jewish girl, Rachel Levy, 7, fleeing from street w. burning bldgs. as the Arabs sack Jerusalem after its surrender. May 28, 1948. John Phillips  THIS IS THE FIRST PICTURE IN PART 1

SEE THEM ALL : This is what our people lived through ! Each part is both heart breaking and EXHILARATING. Take your time with this, and the many other links presented.
      You can always return & continue.

Color movies taken in Israel 1940 to 1950

This footage, taken by a Boston Jewish Multi Millionaire, FRED MONOSSON, who bought one of the only privately owned portable COLOR movie cameras in the 1940's & 50's and traveled to Israel to record the historical formation of the state IN COLOR !
 
The film was found recently, and you can see eight minutes, right before, during and after Israel was formed - IN COLOR,
 

See images of a very young Peres, Rabin, Golda, Tabenkin (head of the
 Palmach), British Mandate soldiers walking the streets of Jerusalem.. Etc.
 
 The film was shown on Israeli TV in Hebrew, with English titles. A Real Treat.

You have to have FLASH to see this, most computers do, or it will ask if you want to down-load, very SAFE.

If you have links or other material during this period,
please forward it to me, and it will be added.
