Theft of intellectual property 'should be a crime' - 0 views

  •  
    This article focuses on the theft intellectual property being a civil offense instead of a white collar crime, as inventor of clockwork radio Trevor Baylis believes. Baylis argues that, '"If I stole from you, then I would probably go to jail. But if I were to steal your intellectual property, which potentially could be worth billions of pounds, it would be only a civil case - and, even then, most of us can't afford to pay 350 an hour for a lawyer.'" Many other countries have made intellectual property a crime, such as Japan and the United States. The article points out many CEOs, artists, and inventors who are quoted in telling the power and value of an idea and of an invention. Despite this, UK authorities still believe that infringement of intellectual property is best dealt as a civil offense instead of a criminal offense. Baylis believes that "the inventor or entrepreneur will not gain true recognition" for there work if the UK places infringement as a civil offense.

Behind TV Analysts, Pentagon's Hidden Hand - New York Times - 0 views

  •  
    To the public, these men are members of a familiar fraternity, presented tens of thousands of times on television and radio as "military analysts" whose long service has equipped them to give authoritative and unfettered judgments about the most pressing issues of the post-Sept. 11 world. Hidden behind that appearance of objectivity, though, is a Pentagon information apparatus that has used those analysts in a campaign to generate favorable news coverage of the administration's wartime performance, an examination by The New York Times has found.

From Cee Lo Green to Pink, Speaking the Unspeakable - NYTimes.com - 1 views

  •  
    It's some kind of milestone: Three of the Top 10 hits on last week's pop music chart have choruses that can't be played uncensored on the radio and won't have their original lyrics quoted in this family newspaper. All three use variations on a familiar, emphatic, percussive four-letter word.

Supreme Court Gets RIAA Copyright Case - 0 views

  •  
    The article is about a case regarding a violation to the Copyright Act. Whitney Harper, a high school cheerleader, participated in infringing activity on LimeWire between the ages 14-16, claiming that she thought she was simply internet radio streaming. With this "innocent infringer's" defense, she is requesting a $200 fine per song to the Recording Industry of America as opposed to the Copyright Act's minimum $750 per song fine. This would result in a total payment of $7,400 rather than $27,750. The final decision has not yet been made, and the justices of the Supreme Court have the option of taking the case and issuing a ruling, or declining to hear it. The author takes a very neutral viewpoint on the issue, expressing the opinions on both sides of the case. He presents the information in a very factual rather than biased way, and concludes the article in a non-opinionated manner. David Kravets is a technologist, political scientist, humorist, and reporter.

Roque - 0 views

  •  
    ESPN Radio broadcast a podcast called "Roque" on Friday August 27th under the genre of sports. Roque, a variation of lawn croquet, took the place of croquet in the 3rd Olympics and is now extinct but for the small town of Angelica, NY. Played in the town since at least the 1800's, the game is played on a sport-specific pitch in the middle of town where a tournament is held every summer to keep the game alive. Women are not encouraged to play as a leftover tradition from when the sport was first played. "In the 1904 Olympics when Roque was on the program for the only time, so was tug-of-war," said Jeremy Schaap of ESPN.

NPR: 50 Great Voices Podcast - 0 views

  •  
    NPR: 50 Great Voices is a weekly music oriented podcast. Every week the broadcast showcases a relatively unheard amazing vocalist whom they wish to share with their listeners. Each week of the year a new singer is brought on the show, this episode was broadcasted on February 1, 2011. This week's episode was focused on a jazz/pop singer named Dianne Reeves who the show was interested in because of the fact that she'd so beautifully mixed the two genres. The show provides a brief background history of the singer, i.e. what they've done in the past, who they've worked for, and what records they appear on. After listening to the two songs by Dianne Reeves the show provided I have come to the conclusion that she is an exceptionally talented woman, who is way worth listening to and in the future I would like to see new pieces of her career become public.
