ience-fair-projects.com/Today your teacher announced
that your school is going to have a science fair and students are
responsible for exhibiting their projects. What do you feel?
Enthusiastic? Despondent? Dreadful? Fearful? Excited?" This statement
opens the Super Science Fair Projects site. Actually, whether student
or parent, science fair projects, while great ways to get students
actively involved in learning the scientific method and problem
solving, can be tough assignments. This site may help you with one of
the hardest parts: coming up with an idea. The site does a great job
of walking the visitor through the steps needed to plan and implement
a project, from Choosing a Topic, the Scientific Method, and writing
the Project Report. There are even tips on displaying your project,
rehearsing, winning over judges, and what to expect the day of the
fair. This is definitely a great tool to tap into when planning a
science fair project.[From The NSDL Scout Report for Math,

Fair use, or not fair?
Fair use, or not fair?
04/09/2004 04:09 PMLast week we posted a story written by my colleague David Graham
titled Proven: Windows is more secure than Linux. It was one of the
better-read pieces on the site this week. Four days after the article
was posted, David did a Google search and found more than half a dozen
sites had linked to the piece -- flattering. But at least three sites
posted all or a substantial portion of the piece on their own sites --
and that's a problem.

was just on G4's Attack of the Show, and thanks to my hacked TiVo,
it's available as a 85Mb
MPEG2 torrent.
Jason did great for live TV, which is just about the most stressful
thing in the world. He seemed relaxed, though the host seemed a little
manic. I assume a producer was screaming in the host's ear to keep
Jason moving, which caused the host to cut Jason off whenever he
started sounding reflective. My favorite parts were the host violating
the Adsense terms of service by goading people into clicking his ad
links and the graphic "Blogging for Bling" in the background (because
clearly, Jason's only in it for the benjamins).
Fair use is a right AND a defense
Fair use is a right AND a defense

Cory Doctorow:
The entertainment companies often tell us that "fair use isn't a
right, it's a defense." It's techincally true, but legally
disingenous. As my cow-orker Fred Von Lohmann noted today in a mailing
list post, "I've heard Peter Jaszi say on several occasions (and more
eloquently), First Amendment is like fair use, technically invoked as
a defense in court, but that doesn't stop us from talking about our
*right* to free speech."
College To Do Away With Fair Use
College To Do Away With Fair Use
12/17/2003 09:34 PMThe latest silliness from our college campuses is this bit of news
from Ithaca College, where they're planning to tell professors that
fair use no longer exists when it comes to course packs
(the photocopied excerpts from various sources that many professors
use to give students short excerpts from a variety of sources). While
most such course packs do involve some approved material, much of it
is often used on a fair-use basis - but university administrators are
afraid of getting sued. Thus, they're going to tell professors that
they need to license every last bit of content they use. This means
that (a) professors will ditch a lot of materials, because they don't
have time to get approval from everyone or because the publisher wants
too much money to include a single paragraph and (b) the course packs
will be much more expensive with less useful stuff for students. In
some cases, professors will simply put the materials on library loan,
where students will go and photocopy it anyway - basically adding an
"annoyance" factor to the process. It's a great lesson we're teaching
the students of today when they don't get to read certain materials
because it's just too damn expensive.

Fair and Balanced?
Fair and Balanced?
10/28/2003 11:07 PMBill Gates recently got together with Steve Mills from IBM and
demonstrated some web services interoperability between our two
companies' products. It has taken awhile to get to this point,
from the initial hype to the point where some of these key scenarios
work without smoke and mirrors; so it is nice to see a "status report"
like this.
The first response I saw came in the form of this shrill attack
piece run on CNET. The author seems stuck in the last
century, when people still bought the big lie about "write once run
anywhere". He fails to explain how "runs only on Java" is
significantly different from "runs only on Windows", and completely
misses the point that most enterprises have to support both
types of systems (and many more) and therefore place a high priority
on interop.
The attack piece brought back fond memories of the days when Bob
Metcalfe and Jai Singh (now managing editor at CNET) were together at
the helm of Infoworld. Then I saw another analysis in
CNET, covering the same interop event, but surprisingly balanced,
at least in comparison to the first piece. Finally, I found yet another
analysis on CNET, again covering the same event; and this one is
positively glowingly accurate!
What to make of it? A single presentation by Bill Gates
inspires three different pieces in CNET which cover the whole spectrum
of opinion. Can't complain about that.

"And doing great things with the time he takes — so check out
his blog entry pointing to a wide range of discussions on the DMCA
exceptions that were
posted today by the Librarian of Congress: Ancillary Works on DVD DMCA Exemption Denied" [Furdlog]
Ditto and "what he said." If you've noticed a slowdown at LawMeme, it's because Ernie's posts
are on his personal blog now, and he must be foregoing sleep in order
to post as often as he is at The Importance

Ernest to provide a feed with the full text of his posts!). He's
really been on a roll the last few days.
On a more depressing note, make sure you follow the link above to
Ernie's post and read up on the four<
/A> DMCA exemptions&
nbsp;ruling, too, because today our government again decided that we
do not have a right to "fair use" of the digital files we purchase.
Not surprising given the way the entertainment industry has framed the
debate and paid for legislation over the last decade, but discouraging
nonetheless.
If legislators were forced to vote today for the "right of first
sale" of digital files, which is the exemption that has traditionally
allowed libraries to circulate physical materials, I wonder how many
of them would blindly sign it away without a second thought to
libraries. If public libraries didn't already exist, would we be able
to start them in this day and age? My guess is no.

NY Times: Whose DVD? A Debate Over Copies. The free copying tools are
available through Internet sites that are not directly subject to
American law, often because the nations that those sites call home
permit individuals to copy material for their own use. People seeking
such tools need only pose the question in an Internet search engine to
find dozens of sites devoted to the subject, including the Afonic DVD
Guides site (www .dvd-guides.com), run by Joseph Chatzimichail, a
20-year-old electrical and computer engineering student in Salonika,
Greece.

I'm giving a couple of talks in Singapore in December and one of my
kind hosts has sent me a form on which I'm to list every copyrighted
and non-copyrighted source I use in the handouts, along with this
explanation of what constitutes fair use in Singapore. I'd say that
this is what we have to worry about our copyright law doing to the
free expression of ideas, but I'm afraid you're going to tell me that
this is in fact where our copyright law already is. Sigh....
