week 7 kaplan,

Finally our semester is coming to an end, this week has brought many relieves, our dreaded rough draft has finally been completed. My baby boy turned 8 months this week! my 9 year old baby girl is in town visiting, It has been over a year since I have seen her, for those who do not have kids let me tell you that if you care about your kids it is not easy not to see them. I look forward to finishing this semester.

Week 6 in our composition class
This week is a very happy week for me. My daughter is visiting me from North Carolina, and meeting her brother (my baby son with my present wife) I don't get to see her too often but when I do it's the happiest time for me. She is 8 yrs old, and acts like she is going on 30! I can't believe how big she has gotten. Time really does fly by. I am appreciating every moment with the baby because I know how fast things can go.

This week I finally put pen to paper, or key to screen, and began to work on my rough draft.
One of the styles that I prefer to use is the free writing style , the reason I like using free writing is because it allows me to put all my ideas down without really thinking about it. Once I go back and review what I have written down, it allows me to take ideas and put them down on my research paper. I look forward to completing my work, and move forward with my studies.

Does the Internet blur the lines of legally owned? Consider sites like YouTube and Wikipedia?

In today's highly connected world, the Internet has given people the ability to search anything within a moments notice. How ever this all comes with a grey area of not knowing sometime who to give credit to, websites like You Tube and wikipedia provide and show information for other to use, I assume that user acknowledge that the moment that they post any information on these sites it becomes free game to anyone who wants to use it right? or is there a disclaimer stating that is will be open for everyone's use? I believe that at the point that you post something is automatically becomes the property or "legally owned by the website that you are using and that website allows any one person to do what they please with the information that is being shown.!! That is my take on it !
