An author is broadly defined as "the person who originated or gave existence to anything" and whose authorship determines responsibility for what was created. Narrowly defined, an author is the originator of any written work and can also be described as a writer.
In copyright law, there is a necessity for little flexibility as to what constitutes authorship. The United States Copyright Office defines copyright as "a form of protection provided by the laws of the United States (title 17, U.S. Code) to authors of "original works of authorship". Holding the title of "author" over any "literary, dramatic, musical, artistic, [or] certain other intellectual works" give rights to this person, the owner of the copyright, exclusive right to do or authorize any production or distribution of their work. Any person or entity wishing to use intellectual property held under copyright must receive permission from the copyright holder to use this work, and often will be asked to pay for the use of copyrighted material. After a fixed amount of time, the copyright expires on intellectual work and it enters the public domain, where it can be used without limit. Copyright law has been amended time and time again since the inception of the law to extend the length of this fixed period where the work is exclusively controlled by the copyright holder. However, copyright is merely the legal reassurance that one owns his/her work. Technically, someone owns their work from the time it's created. An interesting aspect of authorship emerges with copyright in that it can be passed down to another upon one's death. The person who inherits the copyright is not the author, but enjoys the same legal benefits.

Genres: Documentary,Actors: James Rundel (editor), Danny Vinik (producer), Danny Vinik (writer), Danny Vinik (director), Calexico (composer), Charles Bowden (actor), Patti Keating (actress), Gustavo Lozano (actor), Doug Biggers (producer), Theodore Abrams (producer), Bob Oldfather (producer), Darren Clark (costume designer),
Plot: Flor de Muertos (Flower of the Dead) examines the cross-cultural collisions regarding death along the US and Mexico border, commencing with the Mexican celebration of the Dia de los Muertos and ending with the All Souls Procession when 20,000 locals turn out in skull face to rattle through the streets of downtown Tucson, Arizona, to remember, honor, and dance with the dead. Flor de Muertos - the Aztec Marigold, 'Cempasuchil'- the scent of marigolds forms a path the souls of the dead can follow back to the living on the annual Day of the Dead. Part documentary, part concert film, Flor, features acclaimed Americana/alternative band Calexico, playing a concert in the historic Rialto Theater to their hometown audience. Desert rat journalist Charles Bowden, who has roamed the borderlands in search of an elusive truth for decades, author Margaret Regan, artist Salvador Duran and others, comment on the insanity of American immigration policies, the blood flowing from an endless and un-winnable drug war, the uselessness of the word, 'closure', and the search for comfort in the resurgent Santa Muerte religion. Their collective voices, along with Calexico's penetrating music, make this beautifully shot documentary a mesmerizing and topical intellectual jam. The omnipresent border fence ultimately fails to divide the fertile cultural zone that is the border. Death is the great equalizing border we will all cross. With the furor over SB1070 and the border death toll climbing, this timely juxtaposition of the Day of the Dead with our immigration policies draws a line in the desert sand.

Plot: From Legend to Tragedy. The name of former University of Maryland basketball superstar and Boston Celtics draft pick Len Bias still provokes powerful, and immediate responses, more than 20 years after his death. The most ambitious, comprehensive and uncompromising account of Bias' life and death is revealed in an explosive documentary, featuring interviews with his closest teammates, friends and family. For the first time, we hear first-hand accounts of what transpired during Bias' final hours from those who were with him at the time of his death. His heartbreaking fall from grace changed the game forever...on the court, where many considered him to be Michael Jordan's closest rival...and in the courtroom, where generations continue to face the harsh punishment of the nation's drug policies that were influenced by his controversial death. Len Bias is a must-see chronicling of how one man's meteoric rise to fame was derailed by a fatal decision that still echoes throughout sports and the criminal justice system.

Survivor Series 2014 Team Cena vs Team Authority
I have nothing new to say.
The world is so terribly big,
it keeps spinning and shaking
loose all my constants and making
me see that the sun has been burning
too long to have not shed its light
in every direction.
All I know
is that beautiful in me is you
beautiful in me is you
All I know
every good thing
every true thing
beautiful in me is you
beautiful in me is you
All I know
every good thing
every true thing
beautiful in me is you
beautiful in me is you
All I know
every good thing
every true thing
beautiful in me is you
beautiful in me is you
I see a thousand young men,
they're all marching in time with war
on their doorsteps and their lovers behind them,
and all of their glory
flows back to their master
but they care not for honor
for they wear his clothes
I'm tired of striving to be,
who you already say that I am.
I am yours.
Take what you need to take,
say what you need to say
to make me who I am meant to be,
you can have it all.
Take what you need to take,
say what you need to say
to make me who I am meant to be,
