If you review their usage policies, they are using the document under an extention of the implicit license given to a teacher by a student when that student submits an assignment.
Hence, by itself, teacher submission of a student work to Turnitin is within the scope of the evaluation license provided by the student to the teacher on submission of the work for grading. The implied license may not extend to other aspects of the TURNITIN system, such as archiving, however, such aspects are allowable as "fair uses" of the copyrighted material.
The English department of my high school kept papers on file for a number of years too.... to me, it seems like that's the same thing. Neither the English department's nor Turnitin's archival of the paper to prevent plagarism prevent or damage the student's ability to make money off the paper should he or she want to do that.
The difference is that Turnitin has permission from the school, which obtained permission from the students (i.e. "you can't take this class if you don't agree to submit your work through Turnitin.") Also, Turnitin's database is not publicly search-able, and can only be used for the purposes of finding plagiarized passages in the work.
We used it my high school, and I had always found it to be pretty accurate. It can be annoying though if you're doing a paper that involves large block quotes, as it highlights them as verbatim copy from another source (which they should be!) The guiding principle with any anti-plagiarism mechanism is that the judgement of the teacher/professor/TA/etc. should never be subservient to the judgement of the machine. If you keep that in mind, these tools can be really useful.
This is my major issue with the redesign, not any of the privacy stuff. The new design hurts the usability of the site rather than helps it. Before, you could log on to the homepage and get everything you needed to know immediately (e.g. messages, pokes, birthdays). Now you need to sift through pages and pages of data to find the stuff that you really want.
NBC would still make money, and Apple would still make a commission, from sales of its shows in iTMS, even if a whole bunch of Disney/Pixar movies suddlenly showed up one day. So no, I don't think it would preclude anything.
Jane and John Doe out there, who are puzzled as to how one "rips" a plastic DVD, didn't go to the movies as frequently this year. It wasn't because they have a l334 pirating station in their basement, it's just becuase there was not as many movies that they wanted to see. It's just easier for the MPAA to go after the pirate problem with lawyers rather than address the decay in creativity with good actors/writers/producers/directors.
ut nobody throws chairs at Google, unlike management practices used at some other well-known technology companies.
Oh, snap.:-)
Oh, and with regards to the conflict-of-interest argument.... in the print edition of the magazine, I think this is packaged to look more like an editorial. National publications run articles like these all the time, so it doesn't surprise me. Google is just getting out there and making a case for itself.

There are a bunch of American universities that don't have core curricula either. (Brown University comes immediately to mind for me.) Depends on which one you attend.
Aside from the task of passing on human knowledge from generation to generation, another major focus of universities is to provide an environment conducive to research, or the creation of new knowledge. Joe Dropout might be able to start a local computer business and make more money that a graduate fresh out of college, but except in extraordinary cases he is not the one pioneering the development of new computers.
Well, I think some of it can be attributed to inflation.
What cost $90 in 1998 would cost $104.29 in 2005.
Also, if you were to buy exactly the same products in 2005 and 1998,
they would cost you $90 and $77.67 respectively.

Here at Cornell we pretty much idolize quite a few of the folks that made the Mars Rovers possible, including Profs. Jim Bell and Steve Squyres.

Actually USA shows Monk, one of the most highly-rated cable TV shows on the air right now.
They also show wrestling, which (amazingly) appeals to a lot of people.
It may be dead at this point, but not because it spontaneously died (as the summary implies).... it died because of anticipation for the next console!

I'm pretty sure AOL and Yahoo users could still whitelist anyone they wanted to get through the spam filter..... right?
Seriously... that article was a load of fluff... apart from innate aversion to DRM, I'd like to wait to actually see the thing before crying doom.
Does that mean Q is behind this somewhere?

Actually, they have to prove what she said was false. We'll see if their argument holds up in front of a judge.
It's not covered by a Regents exam, but there is a mandatory "Participation In Government" course that's required for all Regents diplomas.
