Just passing this along.

                  Extension of Comment Period for Proposed Rule -- Movie 
Captioning and Audio Description
                  The U.S. Department of Justice (Department) proposed 
regulation was published in the Federal Register on August 1, 2014, and the 
comment period was to close on September 30, 2014; however, on September 2, 
2014, the Attorney General granted a 60-day extension of the comment period. 
All comments on the proposed rule for Movie Captioning and Audio Description 
in Movie Theaters are now due on December 1, 2014.

                  The Department encourages the public to review the NPRM 
and submit comments. Comments may be submitted on the regulations.gov 
website or by mail at the following addresses: Regular U. S. mail: 
Disability Rights Section, Civil Rights Division, U. S. Department of 
Justice, P. O. Box 2885, Fairfax, VA 22031-0885; Overnight, courier, or hand 
delivery: Disability Rights Section, Civil Rights Division, U. S. Department 
of Justice, 1425 New York Avenue, N. W., Suite 4039, Washington, D. C.

                  The unofficial copy of the Notice Extending the Comment 
Period is available on the Department's website at ada.gov. The official 
copy will be posted after it is published in the Federal Register.

Character is the side of yourself you choose to show the world.
Integrity is what you do, what you say and how you act when you think no one 
is paying attention.
