	François Boucher (1703 - 1770) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		François Boucher (Bordeaux 1703 - May 30, 1770) was a French painter, a proponent of Rococo taste, known for his idyllic and voluptuous paintings on classical themes, decorative allegories representing the arts or pastoral occupations, and several portraits of Madame de Pompadour.
		The dark-haired version of the Odalisque portraits prompted claims by Diderot that Boucher was "prostituting his own wife", and the Blonde Odalisque was a portrait that illustrated the extra-marital relationships of the King.
		Boucher gained lasting notoriety through such private commissions for wealthy collectors and, after the ever-moral Diderot expressed his disapproval, his reputation came under increasing critical attack during the last of his creative years.

	The Online Office of Congressman Rick Boucher - Reps. Boucher and Doolittle Introduce the FAIR USE Act of 2007 ...
		U.S. Representatives Rick Boucher (D-VA) and John Doolittle (R-CA), today introduced the Freedom And Innovation Revitalizing U.S. Entrepreneurship Act of 2007 (FAIR USE Act) to protect the fair use rights of users of copyrighted material and thereby enable consumers of digital media to use it in ways that enhance their personal convenience.

		The FAIR USE Act differs fundamentally from H.R. 107 and H.R. 1201, as proposed in the 108th and 109th Congresses, respectively, by Representatives Boucher and Doolittle.

		When disruptive new technologies have emerged that changed the way in which consumers have gotten access to news and entertainment (e.g., radio and cable television), the existing legal structures of the Copyright Act often could not accommodate the challenges posed by the new technology.
		I would welcome your thoughts on whether this is the kind of approach we in Congress should implement or whether there are other alternative means of moving beyond the unproductive debates of today to a new legal regime for music file sharing.
		As we fashion a strategy to address this threat to innovation and technical progress, I would welcome thoughts on whether the Induce Act does in fact gut the Betamax decision, how its effect will be felt beyond devices, and whether it raises any First Amendment issues by potentially chilling speech (e.g., product reviews).
