IMPORTANT!!!!

You guys arh... Seriously, next time go search the school library webbie before doing anything else, ok? I was looking for a link to fill up the "links section" on the right, and I found this instead. Read this:

Copyright Act
Section 23
Performance of works or other subject-matter by students, or staff of educational instituton, etc.

Section 23 - Performance of works or other subject-matter by students or staff of educational instituton, etc.

1. Where a musical work is performed by the students or staff of an educational institution in the premises of the institution or elsewhere in the presence of an audience and is so performed in the course of the activities of the institution, the performance shall, for the purposes of this Act, be deemed not to be a performance in public.

2. Where a literary or dramatic work is performed by the students or staff of an educational institution in the premises of the institution or elsewhere in the presence of an audience and is so performed in the course of the activities of the institution, the performance shall, for the purposes of this Act, be deemed not to be a performance in public if the audience is limited to persons who are taking part in the instruction or are otherwise directly connected with the place where the instruction is given.

3. For the purposes of subsection (2), a person shall be deemed to be directly connected with a place where instruction is given if he is a parent, guardian, brother or sister of a student who receives instruction at that place.

4. Subsections (2) and (3) shall apply in relation to cinematograph films, broadcasts, cable programmes and recordings of performances in like manner as they apply in relation to literary, dramatic and musical works but, in the application of those subsections in relation to such films, broadcasts, cable programmes or recordings, any reference to performance shall be read as a reference to the act of causing the sounds concerned to be heard or the visual images concerned to be seen.

5. For the purposes of this section, the staff of an educational institution shall include
--
a) any adjunct staff of the educational institution; and
b) any person engaged by the educational institution to conduct any course of instruction, activity or programme of or offered by the educational institution.

So like, next time, let's say, the musicussion concert, don't call it a PUBLIC PERFORMANCE. We are part of an institution. Under the copyright law, there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY that we can conduct a public performance. If anyone doesn't understand the lawyer jargon, ask me the coming Wednesday, or when you next see me, be it online or not.

Yo yo....

Hi guys,

Your friendly forum co-administrator speaking here (yesh... you see me everywhere, no? Wahahah). I'll be changing the look of the forum soon, meanwhile, you can go ahead and read my crap on my blog... Wahaha... And yes, the blog is new. I'll be throwing up the link to my existing blog though.

Be forewarned. Anything and everything you read in my alter's blog is confidential. I hold you to your unspoken word the moment you clicked the link that you agree to keep mum regarding the rants...

Yours truly,
Who'd ya think this is?


Ps, and on a more serious note,
The reason for the link to my blog is not so that you can read my innermost secret thoughts and possibly guess who I secretly admire (yesh, yesh... major gag fest, no? haha), but so that you can compare what you'd like on this blog to what I have. Everything that I have on my alter's blog, the codes were written by me. So... Well, I hope you catch my drift.
