   License Your Work

   With a Creative Commons license, you keep your copyright but allow people to copy and distribute your work provided they give you credit — and only on the conditions you specify here. For those new to Creative Commons licensing, we've prepared a list of things to think about. If you want to offer your work with no conditions attached, or you want to mark a work that is already free of known copyright restrictions and in the public domain, choose one of our public domain tools.
   UP ABOVE IS THE MAIN POINTS OF THIS QUESTION

   Licenses

   The following describes each of the six main licenses offered when you choose to publish your work with a Creative Commons license. We have listed them starting with the most accommodating license type you can choose and ending with the most restrictive license type you can choose.
   

   License Conditions

   Creators choose a set of conditions they wish to apply to their work.
   

   
   

   Attribution
   by

   You let others copy, distribute, display, and perform your copyrighted work — and derivative works based upon it — but only if they give credit the way you request.

   
   

   Share Alike
   sa

   You allow others to distribute derivative works only under a license identical to the license that governs your work.

   
   

   Non-Commercial
   nc

   You let others copy, distribute, display, and perform your work — and derivative works based upon it — but for non-commercial purposes only.

   
   

   No Derivative Works
   nd

   You let others copy, distribute, display, and perform only verbatim copies of your work, not derivative works based upon it.

   The Licenses

   

   Attribution
   cc by

   This license lets others distribute, remix, tweak, and build upon your work, even commercially, as long as they credit you for the original creation. This is the most accommodating of licenses offered, in terms of what others can do with your works licensed under Attribution.
   

   
   

   

   Attribution Share Alike
   cc by-sa

   This license lets others remix, tweak, and build upon your work even for commercial reasons, as long as they credit you and license their new creations under the identical terms. This license is often compared to open source software licenses. All new works based on yours will carry the same license, so any derivatives will also allow commercial use.
   

   
   

   

   Attribution No Derivatives
   cc by-nd

   This license allows for redistribution, commercial and non-commercial, as long as it is passed along unchanged and in whole, with credit to you.
   

   
   

   

   Attribution Non-Commercial
   cc by-nc

   This license lets others remix, tweak, and build upon your work non-commercially, and although their new works must also acknowledge you and be non-commercial, they don’t have to license their derivative works on the same terms.
   

   
   

   

   Attribution Non-Commercial Share Alike
   cc by-nc-sa

   This license lets others remix, tweak, and build upon your work non-commercially, as long as they credit you and license their new creations under the identical terms. Others can download and redistribute your work just like the by-nc-nd license, but they can also translate, make remixes, and produce new stories based on your work. All new work based on yours will carry the same license, so any derivatives will also be non-commercial in nature.
   

   
   

   

   Attribution Non-Commercial No Derivatives
   cc by-nc-nd

   This license is the most restrictive of our six main licenses, allowing redistribution. This license is often called the “free advertising” license because it allows others to download your works and share them with others as long as they mention you and link back to you, but they can’t change them in any way or use them commercially
5. what are the main sites that feature Creative Commons works? Several million pages of web content use Creative Commons licenses. Examples include:
   
   • Opsound
   • MoveOn.org's Bush In 30 Seconds contest (See History of MoveOn.org)
   • Groklaw
   • MIT OpenCourseWare - academic course syllabuses
   • Bob Powell Anthology
   • The Wired CD; created by Creative Commons in cooperation with Wired Magazine, the Beastie Boys, Brazilian Minister of Culture Gilberto Gil, etc.
   • Public Library of Science
   • Bitzi Bitpedia (digital media encyclopedia)
   • Jamendo
   • Ghosts I-IV - The sixth studio album by Nine Inch Nails, which was published under an Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike license upon its release, thus raising considerable media attention.

what does Creative Commons have to do with copyright? with fair use laws?


ok so i like the 5 w's and i like the 6 questions because they're small and quick to read but they bascially summarize everything up real quickly the w's are quite a little longer
what does plagiarism have to do with copyright laws?

plagerism is a violation of copyright laws.

works to increase

the amount of creativity (cultural, educational, and scientific content) in

“the commons” — the body of work that is available to the public for free

and legal sharing, use, repurposing, and remixing.

Creative Commons provides free, easy-to-use legal tools that give

everyone from individual creators to major companies and institutions a

simple, standardized way to pre-clear copyrights to their creative work.

CC licenses let people easily change their copyright terms from the

default of “all rights reserved” to “some rights reserved.”

Creative Commons licenses are not an alternative to copyright. They

apply on top of copyright, so you can modify your copyright terms to best

suit your needs.

i like the 5 w's and the 6 questions

     what does plagiarism have to do with copyright laws?
               plagiarism is and act of fraud  stealing work from semeone and lying about it copy right laws are when you copy and paste stuff without putting the author who made itHow do I cite sources?     this is where i found the research

it depends on what type of work you are writing how you are using the borrowed material, and the expectations of your instructor.
First, you have to think about how you want to identify your sources. If your sources are very important to your ideas, you should mention the author and work in a sentence that introduces your citation. If, however, you are only citing the source to make a minor point, you may consider using parenthetical references, footnotes, or endnotes.
There are also different forms of citation for different disciplines. For example, when you cite sources in a psychology paper you would probably use a different form of citation than you might in a paper for an English class.
Finally, you should always consult your instructor to determine the form of citation appropriate for your paper. You can save a lot of time and energy simply by asking "How should I cite my sources," or "What style of citation should I use?" before you begin writing.
In the following sections, we will take you step-by-step through some general guidelines for citing sources

different types of citations,

Search Algorithms

1)   What did you think about the process of finding your opponent's ships?

you just have to think really hard at where might a ship be I WON I WON THE GAME YAY



 2)   How did you select which square to click?

i just clicked i thought hard



3)   How did you know which direction to click next?

when you get a hit you keep going up until you destroy the whole ship

• linear search =

In computer science, linear search or sequential search is a method for finding a particular value in a list, that consists in checking every one of its elements, one at a time and in sequence, until the desired one is found
binary search =

In computer science, a binary search is an algorithm for locating the position of an element in a sorted list.

hash table =

In computer science, a hash table or hash map is a data structure that uses a hash function to efficiently map certain identifiers or keys (e.g., person names) to associated values (e.g., their telephone numbers).

1.  Where will the next Comic Con take place?

Comic-Con Will Stay In San Diego

By Dianna Dilworth on October 1, 2010 9:15 AM

Comic book fans that like tradition can relax, Comic-Con International is staying in San Diego. The Comic-Con contract with the San Diego Convention Center was up for negotiation for 2012, but the  Comic-Con International said that it has renegotiated its contract and plans to stay in San Diego for the forseeable future. The next convention will take place in San Diego July 21-24, 2011.

This past summer’s Comic-Con saw a rise in digital exhibitors. The Wall Street Journal has more: “[Micah Baldwin] the CEO of Boulder, Colo.-based Graphic.ly (previously known as Take Comics). [He] works with publishers like Marvel Comics to create apps so that valuable properties like Spider-Man can be available on any computer or mobile device. “This is the future,” says Baldwin, using the recent news that ebooks are now outselling hardcovers on Amazon as proof.”

This year Marvel and DC Comics both launched apps with digital versions of their comic books on board. We expect next year to bring enhanced comic eBook apps. What do you think?

How much does the world's most expensive cell phone cost?

Most Expensive Cell Phones in the World

http://most-expensive.net/cell-phone-mobile

by tom on October 8, 2006 · Comments (30)

Most people enjoy having a quality cell phone, but they also recognize that cellular phones are a consumable good and will have to be replaced within in a few years. For this reason, people often do not purchase the most expensive cell phone when they purchase their mobile. Some, though, must have a costly mobile phone. The world’s most expensive cell phones were made to satisfy just that type of person.

Nokia 8800 Arte with pink diamonds
$134,000
Designed by Peter Aloisson, this solid 18k white gold phone features over 680 pink and white brilliant cut diamonds totaling over 21.5 carats. Some of the phone’s features are a 3.15 MP camera with autofocus and video, a music player, Bluetooth and voice memo.

Peter Aloisson’s iPhone Princess Plus
$176,400
The Princess Plus got its name from the Princess cut used on 138 of the 318 diamonds on its surface. The other 180 diamonds on the phone were brilliant-cut. In total, the phone has 17.75 carats of diamonds set in 18k white gold around its rim. The iPhone Princess Plus is worth $176,400 while the somewhat more pedestrian “Brilliants only” version sold for $66,150.
Sony Ericsson Black Diamond – $300,000

The price of this phone comes from actual state of the art technology instead of a bunch of shiny rocks—but that doesn’t mean it lacks visual appeal. OLED technology underneath the polycarbonate skin that covers the phones entire face gives the 4 megapixel screen a borderless look. The mirror finish gives the phone a sleek, futuristic look.

Vertu Signature Cobra
$310,000
This gaudy phone is so exclusive that only eight will ever be made. Designed by French jeweler Boucheron, the Signature Cobra is made with two diamonds, two emeralds and 439 rubies. For buyers who are only filthy rich, rather than obscenely rich, twenty-six of the less flashy (read: no rubies) Signature Python phones will be available for a mere $115,000. Both phones will feature the real draw—they have frikkin’ snakes on them. Awesome.
The Diamond Crypto Smartphone – $1.3 million

Created by luxury accessory producer Peter Aloisson of Moscow-based JSC Ancort, this luxury smartphone’s price stems from the platinum body, the cover adorned with 50 diamonds—including eight that are rare blue diamonds. Additionally, the Ancort logo and the navigation key are made of 18k rose gold. Built on the Windows CE, this expensive cell also features a high-resolution color TFT display and a 256 bit cryptographic algorithm. This expensive mobile phone features SMS, MMS, E-mail and Internet capability, WAP, JAVA support and even a media player.
GoldVish ‘Le Million’ Piece Unique
$1.3 million

Guinness World Records certified GoldVish SA’s ‘Le Million’ Piece Unique on January 29th, 2008. The Geneva-based luxury communications company’s expensive mobile phone was designed by Emmanuel Gueit as an addition to the Illusion Collection. The phone is made of 18k white gold and set with 20 carats of VVS1 (only microscopically flawed) diamonds. The phone also features Bluetooth, 2 GB of storage, FM radio, a digital camera and MP3 playback. This expensive cell phone is available only by special order.

Peter Aloisson’s Kings Button iPhone
$2.4 million
The Kings Button iPhone is, surprisingly, a jewel-bedecked iPhone. This time, however, Aloisson had the iPhone 3G to play with—and, apparently, a bit of a bigger budget. One hundred and thirty-eight brilliant-cut diamonds line the sides of the phone, but the real prize is the home button—a rare 6.6 carat white diamond.
Goldstriker iPhone 3GS Supreme – $3.2 million

Stuart Hughes of Goldstriker International is known for giving luxury devices such as phones and video game consoles the “Supreme” treatment—covering them with gold and diamonds—and the iPhone is no exception. The iPhone 3GS Supreme features a casing made from 271 grams of solid 22k gold and a screen trimmed with fifty-three 1-carat diamonds. The home button is covered with a single rare 7.1-carat diamond. That’s not all, though—the iPhone 3GS Supreme comes in a chest carved from a single block of granite and sports Kashmir gold and an interior lining made with Nubuck top grain leather.
