AACS encryption key controversy $58.99 A controversy surrounding the AACS cryptographic key arose in April 2007 when the Motion Picture Association of America and the Advanced Access Content System Licensing Administrator, LLC (AACS LA) began issuing demand letters to websites publishing a 128-bit (16-byte) number, represented in hexadecimal as 09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0 (commonly referred to as 09 F9), which is one of the cryptographic keys for HD DVDs and Blu-ray Discs. The letters demanded the immediate removal of the key and any links to it, citing the anti-circumvention provisions of the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). In response to widespread Internet postings of the key, the AACS LA issued various press statements, praising those websites that complied with their requests as acting in a “responsible manner”, warning that “legal and technical tools” were adapting to the situation. The controversy was further escalated in early May 2007, when aggregate news site Digg received a DMCA cease and desist notice and then removed numerous articles on the matter and banned users reposting the information. |

Excerpt: Color Climax Corporation ApS (CCC) is a Danish pornography company. It has its headquarters in Copenhagen . It had been one of the leading producers of European pornography up until the 1990s. Since then CCC has recessed most of its assets, but because its earlier works attract admirers of so-called “classic pornography”, CCC still functions today via the Internet .Color Climax corporation (CCC) began in 1967 with the publication of the porn magazine ColorClimax , despite pornography being illegal in Denmark until 1969.Films In 1969 Denmark legalized the production of all kinds of pornography. In the 1970s, CCC began to produce 8 mm pornographic film loops. By the 1980s, video tape had replaced the film loops, sometimes as compilations of previously released material. CCC films usually had a wider range of contents including bestiality (some of them starring Bodil Joensen ), she-males , and other content not widely available at the time. Watersports were displayed as conventional sexual acts. By 2004 Color Climax had many popular European filmstars such as Anna Marek, Tove Jensen (stage name Tiny Tove), Rocco Siffredi , Tiffany Towers and John Holmes in their archives on their website. In one production, Jensen appeared with her mother.Child pornography Color Climax was one of the only large-scale commercial producers of child pornography to openly advertise the fact.

Advanced Mathematics Personal Study Notes $9.99 The thought of publishing my personal study notes that covered fifteen years of undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral learning and research dates to the year 1969. The only difference between my forty year old thought and the present is the phenomenal invention and growth of the Internet and computer software. Then, our copy machines were run by ammonia deposits on chemically treated paper. The stencil tissues and engravers were the common tools for small size publication. None of those was economically viable during my years as student with total dependency on scholarships and family support. In 1986, after settling in Colorado Springs, Colorado, my elder sister volunteered to ship all my belonging from Egypt to the USA. A half-ton wooden box traveled from Alexandria, Egypt, to Houston, Texas, carrying all my handwritten notes and college textbooks. Then, the custom clearance and transportation between Texas and Colorado ran under $500. The kindness of my sister for risking the enormous troubles in dealing with the Egyptian bureaucratic exporting agencies was paralleled with the similar kindness of the America truck driver who had to drive through a residential apartment complex with an 18-wheeler, yet to find out that his truck was not equipped with a lift that could lower the half-ton container on the ground of the apartment complex. The driver allowed me an extra day to ready and leased fork lift from a local rental shop. Driving a forklift on the streets of Colorado Springs was one of many adventures I enjoyed in such beautiful Rocky town.By 1986, I already gathered more modern and elegant books in mathematics. But, my personal notes embodied a process of engraving the mathematical thinking into my neurons. My cursive writings and graphic illustrations during interactive learning with lecturers and independent home searching and preparation are vividly recorded into forty year old notes. Those include the theoretical subject matter, |

African American News Websites $86.64 The purpose of this project was to understand Black publishers views, perspectives and experiences as they relate to the social construction of news, online news and the Black Press. Using non-structured standardized interviews as the primary methodology, ten publishers participated in this study and shared their views, perspectives and experiences on the news creation process, on publishing Black news websites and on the Black press and mainstream news organizations. A descriptive content analysis was also conducted to further understand the publishers’ views and perspectives on the social construction of news and how it manifested into a final product, the actual website. Findings indicate that the majority of publishers in this study follow the traditional processes and procedures of mainstream news organizations. However, resources influence how closely the publishers adhere to these practices. When publishers have little resources they use different modes of behavior, utilizing the advantages available through the Internet. In addition, the majority of publishers in this study use agenda setting mainstream Internet news organizations as an agenda setting tool for their own news websites. |

Amazon.com: Get Big Fast $16 In Amazon.com Jeff Bezos built something the world had never seen. He created the most recognized brand name on the Internet and became one of the richest men in the world. He was recently named Time magazine’s Person of the Year and was crowned “the king of cybercommerce.”Yet for all the success and all the media exposure, the inside story of Amazon.com has never really been told. In this revealing, unauthorized account of Amazon’s astounding rise, Robert Spector, journalist and bestselling author, gives us the fastpaced, behind-the-scenes true story of the company’s creation, its tumultuous present, and its uncertain future.By talking to friends, confidants, early employees, rivals, publishing executives, stock analysts, and venture capitalists, Spector goes beyond the “official story”-the glib, polished, media-savvy statements that Bezos feeds to the press-and presents in unprecedented detail the real facts of the company’s beginnings, innovations, business practices, and strategies, and its vision of the future. Further, he explains what the Amazon story means for conventional business, e-commerce, and ultimately the consumer.Bezos’s first employers tell how the experience he gained at their firms prepared him for creating Amazon.com. Early investors reveal the details of Bezos’s initial pitch for money. Former company insiders divulge how painstakingly Amazon.com’s internal systems were put together.And the story becomes more compelling all the time as Amazon finds itself under attack by the formerly Internetchallenged behemoth retailers, by online startups trying to eat Bezos’s lunch, and by impatient investors waiting for the company to turn a profit. (Amazonlost an incredible $720 million in 1999.)Amazon.com’s emergence as an e-commerce powerhouse has set off tremors around the world, jolting the “bricks and mortar” retailing giants, and forever changing the way everyone does business. But has Jeff Bezos finally run out of time? Will his |

Architectural Theory $60 Architectural theory is the act of thinking, discussing, or most importantly writing about architecture. Architectural theory is taught in most architecture schools and is practiced by the world’s leading architects. Some forms that architecture theory takes are the lecture or dialogue, the treatise or book, and the paper project or competition entry. Architectural theory is often didactic, and theorists tend to stay close to or work from within schools. It has existed in some form since antiquity, and as publishing became more common, architectural theory gained an increased richness. Books, magazines, and journals published an unprecedented amount of works by architects and critics in the twentieth century. As a result, styles and movements formed and dissolved much more quickly than the relatively enduring modes in earlier history. It is to be expected that the use of the internet will further the discourse on architecture in the twenty first century. |

Beginner’s Guide To Getting Published $14.03 The writers who get their work published are not necessarily the most brilliant. They are writers who provide what editors and publishers want. Being a successful writer means balancing your individuality and enthusiasm with your writing and selling skills. It means: adopting a professional attitude from the start; writing as well as you can in your chosen field; giving editors what they want, not what you think they should want; presenting your work as editors like to see it; and, developing a mutually profitable relationship with a publisher. The world of publishing is volatile and highly competitive so you’ll need a guide to show you how to give yourself the best chance of success. If you follow the advice in this book you’ll save yourself a lot of time, money and frustration. Now in its 6th edition, this book has been thoroughly revised and updated to include: the absolute need to be computer-literate – the chances of success are limited these days for any writer without internet/e-mail access and the skills to use it; the advantages to the self-publisher offered by print-on-demand technology; specific advice for beginners from established writers; updated information on how the world of publishing works, and how and why material is selected for publication; and, the importance of websites, blogging, pod-casting and other digital information. |

Bell, Book, and Scandal (Jane Jeffry Series #14) $7.99 You can’t judge a book by its cover. To look at her, one would never think suburbanite homemaker Jane Jeffry would be interested in murder and mayhem. But after all the corpses she’s come across — and killers she’s unmasked — she’s practically an expert on the subject. Which is why, with best buddy Shelley Nowack in tow, Jane’s booking down to a nearby mystery writers’ convention to mingle with the brightest lights of literary crime . . . and maybe drum up some interest in her own recently completed manuscript.They’re all there: editors, agents, publishing bigwigs, and famous authors like Jane and Shelley’s personal fave, Felicity Roane. Even Jane’s longtime honey, Detective Mel VanDyne, is a scheduled guest speaker. Of course there are bound to be some bad apples in the bunch: macho-malicious literary critic–cum–snake Zac Zebra, for example, and loudmouth Vernetta Strausmann, who self-published her despicable whodunit and successfully hawked it on the Internet.However, what would a mystery convention be without a mystery? So one is graciously supplied when a famous ego-squashing editor keels over at the speaker’s podium, undone by an anonymous poisoner. And when a much-hated book-bashing journalist is himself bashed quite nastily in the parking lot, it seems fairly certain that at least one real-life murderer is stalking the proceedings. But who is he/she/them? The dirt-dishing, pseudonymous Internet gossip monger “Ms. Mystery,” who’s lurking around there somewhere? The local bookseller who dearly loves “Modern Golden Age” women writers? The avid reader who seems to know a bit too much about the personal lives of the famous attendees?Jane and Shelley are onthe case, ready to snoop, eavesdrop, and gossip their way to a solution. But the killer they seek is no open book . . . and may turn out to be harder — and deadlier — to read than they initially imagined. |

Books In The Digital Age $95.95 The book publishing industry is going through a period of profound and turbulent change brought about in part by the digital revolution. What is the role of the book in an age preoccupied with computers and the internet? How has the book publishing industry been transformed by the economic and technological upheavals of recent years, and how is it likely to change in the future? This is the first major study of the book publishing industry in Britain and the United States for more than two decades. Thompson focuses on academic and higher education publishing and analyses the evolution of these sectors from 1980 to the present. He shows that each sector is characterized by its own distinctive ‘logic’ or dynamic of change, and that by reconstructing this logic we can understand the problems, challenges and opportunities faced by publishing firms today. He also shows that the digital revolution has had, and continues to have, a profound impact on the book publishing business, although the real impact of this revolution has little to do with the ebook scenarios imagined by many commentators. Books in the Digital Age will become a standard work on the publishing industry at the beginning of the 21st century. It will be of great interest to students taking courses in the sociology of culture, media and cultural studies, and publishing. It will also be of great value to professionals in the publishing industry, educators and policy makers, and to anyone interested in books and their future. |

Each style is presented simply and clearly with examples drawn from a wide range of source types crossing all disciplines, from the arts and humanities to the sciences and medicine. The second edition has also been updated to include a discussion of the merits and pitfalls of citation software, as well as new examples showing proper citation style for video blogs, instant messages, social networking sites, and other forms of digital media. Based on deep experience in the academic trenches, this thoroughly revised edition is intended to appeal to anyone—student, professional, or academic—who needs an efficient, authoritative guide for citing sources across a wide range of disciplines.  |

Clearly Confusing World of Self-Publishing and Pod $13.94 Computers and new printing technologies have brought significant changes to the world of self-publishing. Unlike what was the case only a decade ago, it is now possible to release a book without printing a full press run and the Internet provides some marketing opportunities that were not available a few years ago. This means that a book can now be published for a very modest fee, and that warehousing costs are a thing of the past. If you are thinking about self-publishing, then this book will provide you with a quick overview of everything you need to know in order to have your book released. And, it will help you decide whether or not self-publishing is really the best thing for your book. One of the things this book does not attempt to do is tell you that self-publishing is for everyone. Unlike most books on the subject, this one does try to present an accurate portrayal of the advantages and disadvantages of self-publishing, something that is critical if you want to avoid a painful disappointment. |

Collection Of Poetry Na Povorote. Poem Niti $14.95 This book “Collection of poetry “Na povorote”. Poem “Niti”", includes poems and verses by Yuri K. Shestopaloff, which were earlier published in the Internet journals and on-line periodic publications. The book also includes the author’s poem “Niti” (“Threads”), that was previously published by “Omsk Book Publishing”. Exposed for a long time on the Internet, the author’s poetry received very warm reception of many readers, and is widely cited and referred on the Internet. The readers emotionally thank the author for the deep feelings and thoughts that his verses and poems give the rise to. The number of such comments, of which some voluntarily come from distinguished poets, does not leave any doubts in the author’s master skills and poetic talent. Instead of the introduction, the author decided to include his two articles on poetry writing and poets. Vividly written, these articles give very good idea about the author’s responsible attitude to poetry and poetical techniques. The thematic of verses is broad, from the tender lyrics, which constitute a large part of the book, to philosophical generalizations and stories written as poems. Some verses, about twenty in total, were composed by the author as songs. According to comments, the songs are very good, meaning the words, melody and the author’s performance as a singer. However, notice the listeners, these songs must be professionally arranged in order to show the real shine they deserve. The diversity and richness of poetic rhythms and forms, some of which represent the original author’s contribution to the theory of poetry, undoubtedly should attract close attention of poets, willing to enrich their skills and mastery, and specialists studying all aspects of poetry. |

College Writing: A Personal Approach to Academic Writing $37.5 Writing is a varied critical and imaginative process, not a rigid adherence to a set of conventions. Based on that premise, the third edition of College Writing, like its previous editions, continually exhorts students to find and celebrate their own voices. In fact, it is this affirmation of individual creativity that sets College Writing apart from other process-oriented rhetorics.Lively and conversational in tone, the third edition boasts a writer-to-writer perspective that will put students at ease. College Writing walks students through the main elements of writing, from discovery and research to revising and editing. At the same time, author Toby Fulwiler allows for many detours in his step-by-step approach, with frequent reminders that everyone’s processes are unique and that establishing and maintaining a personal voice can be achieved while meeting conventional academic expectations.Fulwiler examines the different, yet overlapping stages of writing. He addresses rhetorical issues of audience, purpose, and voice, as well as the details of field, library, and Internet research, with particular attention to evaluating sources. He also offers these new features to keep students and teachers up to date: new Web-based research information the most recent MLA guidelines increased coverage of visual elements of texts more on approaches to writing “alternative” pieces a look at the role of creative nonfiction in an academic settingWith frequent examples of the best of undergraduate writing for inspiration, the inclusion of student statements about their writing problems for reassurance, and appended guides to portfolios, punctuation, and publishing for reference, College Writing, Third Edition, is a student’s best companion for starting the writing process right.Since 1983, Toby Fulwiler has directed the writing program at the University of Vermont, where he teaches writing and literature courses. |

Though considered relatively mild under President Habib Bourguiba (1957-1987), censorship and other forms of repression have become common under his successor, President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali (1987-). The latter has been listed since 1998 as one of the “10 Worst Enemies of the Press” by the Committee to Protect Journalists. Reporters Without Borders has also named Ben Ali as a leading “Predator of Press Freedom”. Article 8 of the Tunisian Constitution states “the liberties of opinion, expression, the press, publication, assembly, and association are guaranteed and exercised within the conditions defined by the law.” Article 1 of the Press Code provides for “freedom of the press, publishing, printing, distributing and sale of books and publications.” The main reference for the information in this section is the “IFLA/FAIFE Report on IFEX-TMG Mission to Tunis”. The Press Code requires a receipt from the Ministry of the Interior before distributing books in the country. Islam and human rights are two frequent points of contention.

Computer Viruses And Other Malicious Software $71 The Internet has become a powerful tool for enhancing innovation and productivity. Nevertheless, the increasing dependence on the Internet and other communication networks means the Internet has also become a popular and efficient way to spread computer viruses and other types of malicious software (malware).Malware attacks are increasing in both frequency and sophistication, thus posing a serious threat to the Internet economy and to national security. Concurrently, efforts to fight malware are not up to the task of addressing this growing global threat; malware response and mitigation efforts are essentially fragmented, local and mainly reactive. A wide range of communities and actors – from policy makers to Internet Service Providers to end users – all play a role in combating malware. But there is still limited knowledge, understanding, organisation and delineation of the roles and responsibilities of each of these actors. Improvements can be made in many areas, and international co-operation would benefit greatly in areas such as: proactive prevention (education, guidelines and standards, research and development); improved legal frameworks; stronger law enforcement; improved tech industry practices; and better alignment of economic incentives with societal benefits.This book is a first step toward addressing the threat of malware in a comprehensive, global manner. It has three major aims: (1) to inform policy makers about malware — its growth, evolution and countermeasures to combat it; (2) to present new research into the economic incentives driving cyber-security decisions; and (3) to make specific suggestions on how the international community can better work together to address the problem. |

Computers in Libraries: An Introduction for Library Technicians $37.95 Keep pace with the constant technological changes you face every day as a library technician Computers in Libraries examines the impact of integrated library management systems, digital resources, and the Internet on the functions and operations of library technicians and assistants. The book provides a practical understanding of library system software, networks, online information and access, portals, open URL linking, and the fusion of digital and print collections. Each chapter opens with definitions of the most commonly used terms and closes with review questions for classroom use, making it equally valuable as a textbook and as a professional resource for updating work skills. The roles of library technicians and assistants have changed dramatically in the past twenty years as computers have transformed every area of day-to-day library operations. And nowhere have those changes been more obvious than when dealing with online data that hasn’t undergone the same quality control and selection processes traditionally used with library resources. As ordering and cataloging processes have been streamlined, and reference and research services have been turned into twenty-four hour help centers, Computers in Libraries is a practical guide to keeping pace with the changes you face—every day, in every aspect of your work. Computers in Libraries examines: how computers work Internet protocols and applications integrated management system structure and administration acquisitions financial management online cataloging standards circulation parameters and policies course reserves serials control the Online Public Access Catalog (OPAC) resource sharing standards searching online databases creating online content digital libraries and electronic publishing bibliographic |

Copyright Law Is Obsolete $29.09 Copyright laws worldwide were created for a publishing world where books were tangible, printed in a limited number and sold within territory based markets. Technological changes are giving place to a new book market where books are intangible, exist in unlimited number of copies and travel worldwide in an increasingly global market. In this emerging global book market made possible by the conjunction of the Internet, e-book technologies, DRM and print on demand devices, the three important legal concepts traditionally used in copyright laws have become obsolete: territory, property and the Aristotelian idea of justice. These three concepts were well suited to the tangible book market but are no longer for the virtual book market where persons matter more than objects. This book invites the reader to explore the specific functioning of the virtual economy. It proposes guidelines to modernize copyright law so that it can foster an adequate use of new communication technologies. For the first time in History, the humankind has acquired a technology that allows to create a world of information affluence and freedom of speech or its opposite.This book explains why the option for abundance and freedom must prevail, how the law can support this movement and what would be, to the contrary, the disastrous consequences of the other option. This book goes beyond a simple reflection on the book market and considers the choice of society, even of civilization implied by the use, right or wrong, of the new communication technologies. |

Cyber-Bullying: Online Predator $8.59 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Cyberbullying “involves the use of information and communication technologies to support deliberate, repeated, and hostile behavior by an individual or group, that is intended to harm others. -Bill Belsey” The National Crime Prevention Council’s definition of cyber-bullying is “when the Internet, cell phones or other devices are used to send or post text or images intended to hurt or embarrass another person.” StopCyberbullying.org, an expert organization dedicated to internet safety, security and privacy, defines cyberbullying as: “a situation when a child, tween or teen is repeatedly ‘tormented, threatened, harassed, humiliated, embarrassed or otherwise targeted’ by another child or teenager using text messaging, email, instant messaging or any other type of digital technology.” Other researchers use similar language to describe the phenomenon. Cyber-bullying can be as simple as continuing to send e-mail to someone who has said they want no further contact with the sender, but it may also include threats, sexual remarks, pejorative labels (i.e., hate speech), ganging up on victims by making them the subject of ridicule in forums, and posting false statements as fact aimed at humiliation. Cyber-bullies may disclose victims’ personal data (e.g. real name, address, or workplace/schools) at websites or forums or may pose as the identity of a victim for the purpose of publishing material in their name that defames or ridicules them. Some cyberbullies may also send threatening and harassing emails and instant messages to the victims, while other post rumors or gossip and instigate others to dislike and gang up on the target. Kids report being mean to each other online beginning as young as 2nd grade. According to research, boys initiate mean on… More: |

Designing Security Architecture Solutions $75 Tackling security architecture from a software engineering perspective With the growth of the Internet, computer security is rapidly becoming a critical business concern. In turn, as security becomes the responsibility of all IT professionals, companies must rethink the way software is built to have confidence that their mission-critical applications are protected and the privacy and integrity of their data is maintained. In this groundbreaking book, Jay Ramachandran, a security expert with AT&T’s renowned Network Services organization, explores system security architecture from a software engineering viewpoint.

Detective Agency $28.95 Since the late 1970s, a subgenre of crime fiction, written by women and featuring a professional woman investigator, has exploded on the popular fiction market. Priscilla L. Walton and Manina Jones focus on this recent proliferation of women writers of detective fiction, providing the first book-length study of the historical and societal changes that fueled this popularity, along with insightful and entertaining readings of the texts themselves.Walton and Jones place the genre within its aesthetic, social, and economic contexts, reading it as an index of cultural beliefs. Addressing the ways that Sara Paretsky, Sue Grafton, Marcia Muller, and others work through the conventions of the “hard-boiled” genre made popular by writers such as Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler, and Mickey Spillane, the authors show how the male hard-boiled tradition has been challenged and transformed. Issues of child, spousal, and sexual abuse are more likely to surface in women’s detective novels, the authors show, and female sleuths face many of the same dilemmas as those who read about them–everyday problems with relationships, parenting, and money.Detective Agency also integrates interviews with authors and publishers, reader surveys, publication data, and analysis of internet discussion groups to present a fascinating picture of the “industry” of women’s detective fiction. Authors of these works are powerful players in the publishing system as well as agents of cultural intervention, Walton and Jones claim. They conclude by examining the rise of female detectives in television and film. |
