...the internet. It is important that bloggers protect themselves from committing this crime. It is okay to use copyrighed material for certain purposes such as: teaching, research, and news reporting. However, one must use caution when posting pictures and text messages from other people in blogs. Using the work of others without permission is equivalent to stealing a photo album or journal from your next door neighbor. Just because you may not sell it to make a profit, does not benign the fact that the material was stolen. Bloggers must become educated about copyright infringement and fair use. When unsure whether they are committing copyright infringement, they should refrain from using copyrighted material. Although it is common knowledge that blogs are the opinions and points of view from various people, bloggers themselves should not deliberately spread false information. Furthermore, the opinions in blogs should always be easily identified, as well as the facts. Bloggers may not have the responsibilities of journalists, but they have the responsibility not to steal or mislead followers. Bloggers should have enough integrity to preserve the credibility in their discussions. If the topic that is being discussed contains false information, then the entire blog loses credibility. Bloggers may not be news reporters, but they must pride themselves in their ability to use the news and current events to spark educated and meaningful...

...many different types of drones in the marketing world. The most common ones have been used for military purposes. The US military has two types of drones. UAV’s, unmanned aerial vehicles, are used for high tech surveillance. UACV’s, unmanned aerial combat vehicles, are used for destroying targeted objects in war (Pugliese). There are many drones that can be mistaken for remote controlled helicopters as well. These are now issued to some police forces around the US in order to keep a closer eye on cities. Civilians are starting to demand the use of drones in many different areas. Farmers are asking for drones to watch their crops better, and to annihilate any crows that try to destroy them. Boarder patrol wants them for surveillance. This could help patrol the boarder between Mexico and the United States better. Newscasters want them to videotape footage that most reporters cannot get to very easily. Also police departments want to use them to keep an eye in the sky and watch out for crime in...

...Deviance? Defined as anything of violation of the norm. In the sociological perspective of functionalist, deviance is important for society to remain functional. For it contributes to the social order. Piracy is defined as an act of robbery or criminal violence at sea. The idea of categorizing the transgression of private rights in creative works as "piracy" predates statutory copyright law. The Sean Parker joined friend Shawn Fanning and started the file-sharing service Napster in 1999. Napster's popularity among music lovers quickly escalated. Within its first year, the service attracted tens of millions of users, but also became a target of the music industry, which saw the start-up as a huge threat to its business. Napster was opposed by recording labels, the Recording Industry Association of America, and the heavy metal band Metallica, among others. Lawsuits by various industry associations eventually shut down the service Napster has been called the fastest growing business of all time, is credited with revolutionizing the music industry, and is considered by some to be a precursor to iTunes. I can actually agree with what happened, as piracy is wrong. But I must stress that it was a needed action. Which resulted in all of these companies expanding their industry. Focusing the music, film industry into evolving. Expanding. Into the new era, the era of the internet. In February 2003, Dotcom set up another company called Data Protect Limited, but changed...

Acuff-Rose Music, Inc. * * This note won the first place prize in the 1995 ASCAP Nathan Burken Memorial Competition. NAME: L. David McBride LEXISNEXIS SUMMARY: ... First, this note discusses the Copyright Act of 1976 and the fair use doctrine. ... Further, this note evaluates how the defendant used the fair use doctrine as an exception to copyright in Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music, Inc. ... The district court recognized that courts have included parody under the fair use doctrine. ... The district court found that the second factor, the nature of the copyrighted work, weighed against fair use and in favor of Acuff-Rose. ... Judge Joiner, writing for the majority, considered each of the factors in section 107 in determining that the derivative work was not fair use. ... The Supreme Court's Application of the Fair Use Doctrine in Acuff-Rose Music, Inc. v. Campbell ... He observed that the application of the fair use doctrine requires a case-by-case analysis, as opposed to "bright-line rules." Such an approach is necessary because section 107 does not define every type of creative work that a court may exempt under the fair use doctrine. ... However, the Court of Appeals read Sony as presuming unfair use when a derivative work is used for commercial purposes and found that the fourth factor weighed against fair use. ...

...Externally, stakeholders may not agree with goals an organization has set which is a conflict of interest. Internal process approach would be the most appropriate analyzing a police department. A police department has to have a cohesive group of employees because it is an extremely serious career path. This approach shows how the indicators reveal an evaluation of the coordination of the organizations parts. This type of work must be fluent in goals and actions to accurately monitor the residents in the town. The constraints of the small community must first be looked at and identified in order for the effectiveness of the police department to be determined. Depending on what is going right or wrong in the community (high crime rate, high drug use, lack of awareness, speeding and lack of police presence to name a few) the police department would need to know in order to put the proper...

...In this study we will use a Tahoe land cover map as a guidance. We will also two different maps one from 1982 and one from 1992. This is so we can access and see the land changes over the ten years. There will be a series of different methods to properly perform this. These will include a series of different map classification and charts and some scatter plots. Spectral Signatures We can see from the graph that deep water has a very low spectral profile and low reflectance. The depth of the water greatly affects the amount of radiation that is being reflected through the atmosphere. There would be very low transmitted energy because of the depth of water. This is what gives it its unique signature. However, the reflectance is at its maximum at the blue end of the spectrum and decreases as wavelength increases. As for the Shallow water it does have an overall reflectance. This because of the low depth of the water so more light is reflected. He water could also be turbid which as some sediment suspension which increases the reflectance in the red end of the spectrum. Clear water reflects very little reflectance, but turbid water is reflects more because of the chlorophyll content of a water, for example plankton and algae. This gives it a slight green signature. If we can compare the Tahoe area from 1982 to 1992, it is harder to make out the shallow area from the bare land around it. This might mean that the water has dried up because of global warming. Its spectral signal...
