(the hyphen was later dropped from the name). : "Boy Scouts can earn badges for woodcarving, raising rabbits, and firing shotguns. But in the Los Angeles Los Angeles (lôs ăn`jələs, lŏs, ăn`jəlēz'), city (1990 pop. 3,485,398), seat of Los Angeles co., S Calif.; inc. 1850. area, Scouts will now be able to earn their stripes by proselytizing about the evils of copyright piracy piracy, robbery committed or attempted on the high seas. It is distinguished from privateering in that the pirate holds no commission from and receives the protection of no nation but usually attacks vessels of all nations. . Officials with the local Boy Scouts and the Motion Picture Association of America unveiled the Respect Copyrights Activity Patch--emblazoned with a large circle [C] copyright sign along with a film reel and musical notes." |
