SOPA and PIPA is to protect or destrot?

Time for some read up and make you aware about what's happening around you.

I found out that this explanation from reddit's blackout is quite simple to follow:

Dear reddit,

Today, for 12 hours, reddit.com goes dark to raise awareness of two bills in congress: H.R.3261 "Stop Online Piracy Act" and S.968 "PROTECT IP", which could radically change the landscape of the Internet. These bills provide overly broad mechanisms for enforcement of copyright which would restrict innovation and threaten the existence of websites with user-submitted content, such as reddit.

FAQ

What is the intent of SOPA/PROTECT IP?

The stated intent of the bills is to provide tools for law enforcement and copyright holders to protect their intellectual property rights.

What’s wrong with protecting copyrights?

Nothing! The devil, as they say, is in the details. PROTECT IP and SOPA will cause too much collateral damage, have a high potential for abuse, and won't even be that effective at stopping the crimes they target. Read alienth's examination of where these bills fail.

I'm not in the U.S. Why does this affect me?

Many of the sites that you may use (e.g. Google, Facebook, Wikipedia, etc.) are all affected by this law and will be required to hide offending domains from you.

If a non-U.S. site is blocked in the U.S., the site could suffer financially or even be bankrupted by the loss of U.S. traffic and revenue.

What are the differences between PROTECT IP and SOPA?

At a general level, the bills are very similar. SOPA, the "Stop Online Piracy Act," is from the House of Representatives, while the PROTECT IP Act is from the Senate. Either or both bills may pass a vote in their chamber of congress on their way to becoming law. Both must be defeated to end this threat. There have recently been more detailed explanations in an ELI5 thread and alienth's blog post. 

Please read up alienth's blog post if you are interested about this! it will change my life your life and your future generation! protect the internet ....

what do you think ? are you pro or against SOPA and PIPA?

How to Loosen a Tight Plastic Knot

A tight knot ... Digging your fingers into knotted shoelaces, garbage bags, and other tangles is no fun (not to mention difficult). Redditor Jumalkavita shows us a simple trick for opening stubborn knots.

Essentially, you just twist the end of the knot so it constricts, then push it through the rest of the knot. It should slide right through. 

More complicated knots may require you to do this a few times, but it should help you get through knots with greater ease than before.

Are You Stress?

Stress can be bad for your health, it's subjective but I'm talking about the "bad stress" 

Stress is difficult for scientists to define because it is a highly subjective phenomenon that differs for each of us. Things that are distressful for some individuals can be pleasurable for others. We also respond to stress differently. Some people blush, some eat more while others grow pale or eat less. There are numerous physical as well as emotional responses as illustrated by the following list of some 50 common signs and symptoms of stress.

1.  Frequent headaches, jaw clenching or      pain		26. Insomnia, nightmares, disturbing       dreams
2.  Gritting, grinding teeth		27. Difficulty concentrating, racing thoughts
3.  Stuttering or stammering		28. Trouble learning new information
4.  Tremors, trembling of lips, hands		29. Forgetfulness, disorganization,       confusion
5.  Neck ache, back pain, muscle spasms		30. Difficulty in making decisions.
6.  Light headedness, faintness, dizziness		31. Feeling overloaded or overwhelmed.
7.  Ringing, buzzing or "popping sounds		32. Frequent crying spells or suicidal       thoughts
8.  Frequent blushing, sweating		33. Feelings of loneliness or worthlessness
9.  Cold or sweaty hands, feet		34. Little interest in appearance,       punctuality
10. Dry mouth, problems swallowing		35. Nervous habits, fidgeting, feet tapping
11. Frequent colds, infections, herpes sores		36. Increased frustration, irritability,       edginess
12. Rashes, itching, hives, "goose bumps"		37. Overreaction to petty annoyances
13. Unexplained or frequent "allergy"       attacks		38. Increased number of minor accidents
14. Heartburn, stomach pain, nausea		39. Obsessive or compulsive behavior
15. Excess belching, flatulence		40. Reduced work efficiency or productivity
16. Constipation, diarrhea		41. Lies or excuses to cover up poor work
17. Difficulty breathing, sighing		42. Rapid or mumbled speech
18. Sudden attacks of panic		43. Excessive defensiveness or       suspiciousness
19. Chest pain, palpitations		44. Problems in communication, sharing
20. Frequent urination		45. Social withdrawal and isolation
21. Poor sexual desire or performance		46. Constant tiredness, weakness, fatigue
22. Excess anxiety, worry, guilt,       nervousness		47. Frequent use of over-the-counter drugs

24. Depression, frequent or wild mood       swings		49. Increased smoking, alcohol or drug use
25. Increased or decreased appetite		50. Excessive gambling or impulse buying

As demonstrated in the above list, stress can have wide ranging effects on emotions, mood and behavior. Equally important but often less appreciated are effects on various systems, organs and tissues all over the body, as illustrated by the following diagram.

Ads Coming to your Facebook News

Who likes Ads in Facebook? especially if you are going to see it in your news feed starting on January 2012  -_-" 

but according to Facebook: Ads help keep Facebook free

From the beginning, the people who built Facebook wanted it to be free for everyone. It now costs over a billion dollars a year to run Facebook, and delivering ads is how Facebook pays for this.

The advertisement ads will look like other post in your news and it's called sponsored stories. 

this is the difference between Facebook ads and Facebook Sponsored Stories

Your name or profile picture might appear alongside certain types of ads and sponsored stories:

1. Facebook Ads

A business creates an ad to promote its message. If you've liked that business's page, the story about you liking the page (including your name or profile photo) may be paired with the ad your friends see.

Learn more about Facebook ads.

2. Sponsored Stories

A business pays Facebook to feature existing posts and activity that mention the business. Sponsored stories don't include additional messaging from the sponsor. Like Facebook Ads, they're only visible to friends you've already shared this information with.

Learn more about sponsored stories.  

Can I opt out of being featured in Sponsored Stories?

You can’t opt out of being featured in Sponsored Stories, but you can visit your activity log to make sure that only the people you want to share with can see your activity. If you’re aren’t using timeline yet, learn how to remove posts from your profile. 

Sponsored Stories respect your privacy settings. This means only the people you’re already sharing your activity with on Facebook can see Sponsored Stories about you.

is it the time now to move to Google+?
