This isn’t necessarily Springfield related, no its more WORLD related. SOPA is the act that is in progress that aims to be able to blacklist entire websites for having copyright materials. That means websites like YouTube could be shut down simply for someone else posting a music video or similar content. Forums like this could be shut down forever because of this bill. This bill simply takes away our freedom of speech and sadly a lot of people don’t even know about it. People who already own copyrights have more than a fair share of power dealing with their materials. Those videos on youtube can be deleted, accounts can be removed.. lets not give them the power to shut entire blocks of the internet down. Let keep the power where it belongs.. with the people.
Please take the time to watch these videos below to learn more about the bill and educate yourself. After that, take the time to call or write to congress and tell them you do not support taking away our freedoms.
This isnt the first time old media wanted to destroy a new technology.

This was also the case with the MP3 Player, the Theaters Film, broadcast radio and the cassette tape.

Can you believe this guy? I’ll bet he’s turned many an eye while passing other boaters.
The Love Love was built to look as if it is sinking
Image Gallery (8 images)
French artist Julien Berthier has designed a fully functional boat to look as if it is sinking. The 6.5m (21ft) yacht was cut in half with a new keel and motor added so it remains in the sinking position while being fully functional. He describes it as “the permanent and mobile image of a wrecked ship that has become a functional and safe leisure object.”
Berthier has taken the boat (or should I say half-a-boat) across the English Channel to London and has toured it around Europe , getting plenty of offers of assistance from unwitting good Samaritans, who would presumably be either very annoyed or rather bemused by the contraption.
The designer and artist designed and built the floating installation in 2007. He named his creation Love Love.
I recently bought a new home.. and I needed appliances, towels, kitchen stuff, just everything. I chose to buy most of it on amazon.com since they seem to have really fast (I think a robot must have to pack it) delivery and its free. Despite sometimes really failing at packing I keep coming back to them for my non electronic purchases.
I bought a stand mixer and its still being shipped here however when I made the purchase it was 280 dollars… well I went back today and its now 250 dollars. Since its not in my hands yet, I was a bit angry. I sent a email to customer support. It said it may take up to 12 hours, but I didnt want to call them. Well in less than 30 minutes they replied to my email and sent me 31 dollars for the differance.
Great job amazon, even if its against their policy, becasue of this, I will continue to pour my money into orders from them.
Heres the email for those interested:
