Urcashi Vaid Presentation

1) I have been to a couple LGBT movements before so I somewhat expected how it would go. I actually do know quite a bit on this topic because of my few family members who are gay or lesbian and because of my few friends who are gay or lesbian. Yet I still learned more than I learned more than I knew before coming to this presentation. 2) It was very informative and presented in a very respectful yet affirmative and even funny matter. She has very good point and views on everything she was talking about. I do and have almost alwas have had the same opinions as her. 3) I didnt know how bad the LGBT suicide/ attempted suicide rate was. It's very sad and scary to think that people are pushing and bullying this group of people so far off of the edge. 4) Yes! she is a lesbian, has been fighting for thirty years for the LGBT movement and has wrote a few books on the topic. she is most definitely an authority on the topic. 5) Everything she's brought up is something I can use in my paper. She was very informative and will be a huge inspiration for my paper!

intellectual property

intellectual property to me is the different types of creativities and creations of each mind. an experts view on intellectual property is a term referring to a number of distinct types of creations of the mind for which a set of exclusive rights are recognized under the corresponding fields of law. some examples of intellectual property rights include copyrights, trademarks, patents, industrial design rights and trade secrets. it changes in the fact that as soon as the ide is out it can be man ipulated and changed into something else from thier own idea and mind.

google 101

it is a lot easier to use now that i have learned all of the different tools in google. before knowing the different tools google was a very broad tool to use to find information. it is easier to narrow information and research questions down to get exactly what im looking for.
