Yup. You can (and are encouraged) to register your work with the Copyright Office... doing this or not doing this does not affect the validity of your copyright, but it can increase the amount of damages you can receive. More importantly, registration serves as prima facie evidence of validity of your copyright if you get into a dispute.
IANAIPL either, but you have a serious error in your post. Copyrights are NOT like patents. If you create an "original work of authorship," it is automatically copyrighted without you having to do a thing, and without any checks against previous copyrights.
Not to say that there isn't case law covering the student-teacher case, but the basic jist is that the students do automatically have copyrights on whatever original papers they write.
The latter. Dungeons, or instances, are filled with harder-than-average monsters ("elites") followed by boss monsters who require coordination to defeat. Once all of the bosses in the instance are killed, the dungeon is considered beaten and you have to wait for it to reset before going back through. The reason to do it repeatedly is that each boss drops a few (maybe 1 or 2) high quality items, and the players that can use them roll for them. Of course, there are almost always more players than items so you keep going through for fun and to get stuff:-)
The Eastern Plaguelands are an area of one of the continents in the game, filled with upper-level monsters (generally demons and undead).
The Undercity is the capital city of the Undead race (each of the game's races has their own capital city, excepting the gnomes and trolls).
A "raid zone" in this context is an instance, an area which is not shared among all of the server's thousands of players but which is shared only amongst each group that enters it, eliminating competition for bosses that drop better items.
A "raid" is such a group composed of 6-40 players who work together to defeat harder areas.
Wow, I didn't realize that a anti-American rant encompassing
urban development
nuclear weaponry
asthma & cancer
destruction of "wildlife zones"
oil prices
and last but not least, the war in Iraq
made up a coherent, let alone intelligent contribution to the discussion of a specific incident of police reaction in a country that wasn't even the subject of the rant! Silly me.
I think others have covered well enough the idiocy of your closing, but I thought I'd note your gross factual inaccuracy.
You wrote:
I heard Bush say, to every citizen in the USA the reason we are going to war is because there was an EMINENT threat. EMINENT means NOW, it means that if something is not done right away, we will be attacked.
First of all, the word is IMMINENT. Secondly, if you actually read or watched the State of the Union in 2003, a few months prior to the war, you'd have known that very clearly what the President said was,
Some have said we must not act until the threat is imminent. Since when have terrorists and tyrants announced their intentions, politely putting us on notice before they strike? If this threat is permitted to fully and suddenly emerge, all actions, all words, and all recriminations would come too late. Trusting in the sanity and restraint of Saddam Hussein is not a strategy, and it is not an option.
You're talking about hollowpoint rounds, and there is NOTHING M-16 specific about them. You can buy hollowpoint and non-hollowpoint (typically, "Full Metal Jacket") rounds for almost any type of gun.
IANAL, but many if not all states have a tort of interference with a contractual obligation. Sounds like this sort of thing might be actionable under that.

Its all about what you decided to learn and our society does not value learing how to survive particularly much.
That's just wrong. People in our society learn how to survive...in our society. Here, that means something different than hunting and camping, but it's foolish to say that our society doesn't value learning how to survive, because if it didn't, then it wouldn't, well, survive.

Flamebait? Come on, it's a frickin' joke!
Must not have been very good at its job...

So if similarities to someone committing a crime shouldn't cause suspicion, what should cause suspicion?

The terminology is fine. They say "mass extinction," not "total extinction."

The CIA World Factbook lists the former name as "Savage Island," so maybe you'd better think twice!

No.
I'm with those who prefer their apps separate.
I noticed that too...aren't there three digits missing from the toll free number?

Do you complain that a 1 hour call across the country costs more than a 15 min call? Yes, if I'm paying for unlimited call time.
