How does international copyright work?

Posted by admin on December 27th, 2009 and filed under mr international | 3 Comments »

I’ll try to provide an example to explain my question:
An author (Mr X) wrote a book in country A in language 1.
A publishing company asked a translator (Mr Y) to translate it to language 2 and published it in country B.
Now, can I re-publish the book in country B with another translation?
Do I need permission from the publishing company in country 1 or the publishing company in country 2 or Mr X or Mr Y or some or all of them? :-)
Thank you.

If I get a scholarship, can it go towards an international school?

Posted by admin on December 27th, 2009 and filed under go international | 3 Comments »

I’m in high school and have been recently starting to apply for scholarships. I’m highly interested in the University of Kent in Canterbury, UK. If I get a scholarship, can that money go towards an international school such as Kent? Or is it only for US schools?

Lisa:

Although many first time college applicants get caught up in the allure of "all of the scholarships" that are out there, it is important to recognize that the vast majority of scholarship money is awarded by the schools themselves.

The amount of money awarded by "outside organizations" in the competitions that you’ll see on places like fastweb and scholarship.com is dwarfed by the amount (and number) of scholarships offered by the schools. It’s far, far more likely that you would get a school scholarship than a "prize scholarship".

Obviously, school scholarships are awarded by a specific school – and can only be used to attend that school. You’ll be considered for almost all school scholarships as part of the admissions process. If a school offers scholarships, your application will be used to determine whether to offer you one.

Non-school scholarships are offered by all kinds of organizations – there are companies, clubs, membership organizations, advocacy groups, non-profits – all kinds of organizations. Each of these organizations is free to establish its own rules for qualification, application, selection and use of the scholarship.

There are no "general" rules that regulate how scholarships can be used – if you win a specific scholarship, the organization that awarded it will tell you what the limitations are on how it must be used and what you’ll need to do to stay eligible for it.

Many scholarships DO have limitations – for example, it’s not uncommon for the awarding organization to say "Must be used to attend a school in the state of ____". Then again, other scholarships don’t have usage restrictions at all. Offhand, I would say that wanting to use a US scholarship in another country is one of the things that would be more likely than not to be prohibited, but not always.

I presume that you are aware that international students pay a real premium for studying at the University of Kent, just like international students pay a premium to study at US universities and colleges. It looks like UK estimates an international student’s Cost of Attendance at something between £14,000 and £19,000 a year- which translates to about $23,000 to $31,000 a year.

U-Kent has a worldwide reputation for excellence, but you’ll need to carefully consider whether the uniqueness of the opportunity is worth $100 to $120,000 for an undergraduate degree that might cost you 1/3 or 1/2 as much at some of the equally outstanding universities in the United States.

Good luck to you – I hope this information helps!

Can I book my luggage on Domestic Flight for my international flight?

Posted by admin on December 27th, 2009 and filed under international flight | 5 Comments »

I’m am going from the US to Dubai from Houston, TX. I’m going from Dallas to Houston first (its an independent flight from my International flight) I wanted to know if i can book my luggage fro Houston-to-Dubai flight from the Dallas-to-Houston flight. Or do i have to take my luggage from baggage claim at Houston Airport and book it again for the flight from Houston to Dubai.

It’s going to depend on two factors — whether the domestic and international flights are on the same ticket, and whether the airlines are the same or different.

If the flights are on different tickets, then the chances are good that you’ll have to claim your bags in Houston and then recheck them onto the next flight. If they’re on the same ticket, then the chances are better that your baggage can be checked all the way through from Dallas, but that will depend on whether the flights are on the same airline or not as well.

If the flights are on the same airline and were purchased as a single ticket, then it is definite that they will transfer your luggage to the second flight for you. If you’re flying on separate airlines, whether they will transfer the luggage will depend on whether those two airlines have interline baggage agreements. If the agreement exists, then your bags can be transferred for you, but if no agreement exists, then you must claim your bags yourself.

If your flights are on separate airlines, you’ll want to check with them to see whether an interline baggage agreement exists.

Do international flights have outlets on them?

I’m flying to south africa tomorrow and I havent been on an international flight in a while so I can’t remember if international flights have power outlets on the planes or not? I don’t want my ipod to die midway there. Also I have a stop over in london, do they use different outlets than the US? because if no I could just charge up at the airport in heithro. Thanks

The UK has a different power outlet than the USA. I believe South Africa is different than the UK and USA. Most long haul international flights have DC power outlets. Look for an adapter for the device.

What airline are you flying? What type of plane? Go to Seatguru to find out if there are outlets and at what seat they are on.

Does anyone know of a cheap way to get from Denver International Airport to Fort Carson in Colorado Springs?

Posted by admin on December 27th, 2009 and filed under denver international airport | 1 Comment »


Front Range Express is a bus service between Denver and the Springs. You can take a RTD bus from DIA to Denver to get a FREX bus. You can call Ft. Carson, I’m sure the get that question all the time. Also, have you thought about flying into the Springs ? Some times the flights are cheaper.

With NASCAR getting more international drivers and more forign cars may be its time to be a olymic sport.

Posted by admin on December 27th, 2009 and filed under may international | 7 Comments »

America could pit it best drivers in the COT’s versus other true stock cars of the world driven by NASCARs international drivers.

It wouldn’t be a fair competition. One of the beauties about the olympics is it’s man versus man. There’s not really any machines to throw into the equation. This year they have BMX races but it’s still powered by man not an engine or anything like that. I hope they would never put any type of machine in the olympics.

Why did so few scientists attend the Heritage Foundation’s 2008 International Conference on Climate Change?

Posted by admin on December 27th, 2009 and filed under international conference | 15 Comments »

"Several hundred people sat in a fifth-floor ballroom at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in Times Square on Monday eating pasta and trying hard to prove that they had unraveled the established science showing that humans are warming the world in potentially disruptive ways…but after the luncheon, when an organizer made an announcement asking all of the scientists in the large hall to move to the front for a group picture, 19 men did so."

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/04/science/earth/04climate.html?_r=2&oref=slogin&oref=slogin

Here are the bios of the conference speakers:

http://www.heartland.org/NewYork08/ConferenceBios.pdf

You’ve got theologians, economists, geographers, botanists, biologists, right-wing policy strategists, statistical consultants, TV weathermen, petroleum engineers…it’s hard to even find a name on here with any climate science experience.

Why do you think so few climate scientists attended this conference?
Particularly since the entire purpse of the conference was "to generate international media attention to the fact that many scientists believe forecasts of rapid warming and catastrophic events are not supported by sound science, and that expensive campaigns to reduce greenhouse gas emissions are not necessary or cost-effective"?
Sorry, the question should say ‘Heartland Institute’, not ‘Heritage Foundation’. I got one right-wing think tank mixed up with another.
willow – actually they would have been paid to speak at the conference.

If they had to pay people to attend and the only people they were willing to pay were skeptics, it stands to reason that only a few scientists would attend. The few, the proud, the brave, the paid.

The true test of relevance of a conference like this is whether or not a proceedings volume is published. I suspect there will be none because the conference was a PR stunt rather than a true scientific exchange. All of the talks are given by senior people, there is no ongoing research presented by graduate students or post-docs (those of you who have been to an actual national/international meeting will recognize the significance of that). There are no poster sessions, no break-out discussions. It’s all froth and no substance.

In short, this is the hallmark of senescent science. Maybe stillborn is a better term.

Mr. Himanshu Shangari Ji Please tell me that will I be succeed to get recognition an international level..?

My DOB: 12-10-1984, Time: 7:55 AM, Place: Pratapgarh (U.P.) India.

When I will get married..? Do my marriage will be love marriage or intercast??

When I will get job..?

The time between Aug 2007 and Feb 2009 was a good time for marriage and particularly for a love marriage. The time started after from Mar 2009 and lasting till Feb 2011 is not good for marriage and should be avoided. The time from Mar 2011 is again favorable and positive results can be seen there and the chances of a love marriage would also increase there. You are not likely to achieve the things up to a full potential till Feb 2011. So be watchful during this time. And though you can see relief regarding your job after July 2010, but the problems would continue. You can go to very high levels when the time is good for you due to a couple of very good yogas in your horoscope. But the running time is not good for you and you should wait for the right time.
