Films will need to address the types of emotionally tough times that teens and young adults face and be no more than 3 minutes in length. Our focus is not as much on the story of the tough time as it is on how someone navigated that tough time. The competition is now open. Films may be submitted until midnight Pacific Time on June 30, 2009. @NetHappenings #K12Newsletters #arts

Largely unstudied until now, the religious festivals that attracted Chinese people from all walks of life provide the most instructive examples of the interaction between Chinese forms of social life and the Indian tradition of Buddhism. One of the most important of such annual celebrations is the Ghost Festival happening today the first day of winter in which laypeople presented offerings to Buddhist monks to gain salvation for their ancestors.

Twenty years after its first publication, H. David Brumble III offers a revised American Indian Autobiography. He does this in light of two criticisms. First, critics have challenged his assertion that "it is possible to separate Indian from editor/amanuensis" in early preliterate as-told-to autobiographies (vi). Second, Brumble was accused of not giving enough credence to the preferences of American Indians in regards to the material they chose to present.

Writing a book subtitled "Southern Folk Culture" is an ambitious undertaking. Fortunately, John Burrison recognized the wide scope of the topic and narrowed his focus to a study of specific folk traditions found throughout the South in general by providing a specific focus on his own research on Georgia's traditional culture. Burrison's book is an interesting presentation of variations on the theme that folklife is a vibrant resource that profoundly shapes and expresses southern culture. Roots of a Region is not an exhaustive treatment of these topics. It is an accessible introduction to the study of southern folklore, written in an accessible style that presents academic research to readers with a non-specialized interest in folk culture.

This new Orphan Works legislation proposes a change in U.S. copyright that would (indirectly) require artists, illustrators, photographers, and any creative individual to actively maintain and defend their copyright by registering each and every work with privatized registrars. Failure to do so would leave everything you've ever created as an artist up for grabs by anyone who wanted to copy, reproduce, create derivative works of, or flat out steal your work since the act defines an "orphan work" as any work where the author is unidentifiable or unlocatable, and applies to both published and unpublished works, U.S. and foreign, regardless of age.

IT'S ALL ABOUT INNOVATION, TECHNOLOGY AND SCIENCE! Theodor Holm Nelson (born 1937) is an American sociologist, philosopher, and pioneer of information technology. He coined the term "hypertext" in 1963 and published it in 1965. He also is credited with first use of the words hypermedia, transclusion, virtuality, intertwingularity and teledildonics. The main thrust of his work has been to make computers easily accessible to ordinary people. His motto is: A user interface should be so simple that a beginner in an emergency can understand it within ten seconds. Ted Nelson promotes four maxims: "most people are fools, most authority is malignant, God does not exist, and everything is wrong". (see Chapter II, 3rd paragraph, 3rd and 4th sentences, of: Wolf, G. "The Curse of Xanadu" [1]).

Dr. Mashup; or, Why Educators Should Learn to Stop Worrying and Love the Remix The best-known "mashups" are astute combinations of artistic product -- vocals from a hip-hop album laid over Beatles tracks, for example, or a Sergio Leone film set to a new score. But as Brian Lamb points out in Educause Review, the world of mashups now incorporates not just art, but also online applications and other forms of digital media. Mr. Lamb, the manager of emerging technology and digital content at the University of British Columbia, makes a strong case that professors ought to take mashups seriously. That doesn't mean every educator should painstakingly edit Disney films into a treatise on copyright, but it does mean that professors should learn about "data mashups" and strive to make course content open and remixable. "We might ask if the content we presently lock down could be made public with a license specifying reasonable terms for reuse," Mr. Lamb writes. "When choosing a content management system, we might consider how well it supports RSS syndication."

This story of the trickster trying to imitate another occurs in other variants in the Southwest (See, for example, the Jicarilla Apache, "Tales of Fox: Fox and Kingfisher," p. 116). As in the tale types designated by folklorist Stith Thompson as animal tales, "The Coyote and the Woodpecker" offers a moral lesson. The philosophy of acceptance and noncompetitiveness is consistent with general Pueblo worldview and morality. (3:109)
