Sites GO DARK

THE NEWS   , MYCHILLER LIFE and Tech on Croglog 

  

  Today, many websites are protesting bills up for vote in the congress, SOPA (Stop Online Piracy act ) ,and PIPA (Protect IP Act) , that the media industry says will stop piracy, but many websites say that parts of these bills  would cause censorship, because it would allow the government to shutdown websites that have any connection to pirated materiel. Sites  like english Wikipedia and reddit have shutdown for today , and others like Google have blacked out their logos.  

  The MPAA( The Motion Pictures association of America) says that this law is needed to stop content from being stolen. 

   Chris Dodd, the Chairman (and former senator , for full disclosure), said  about the blackouts 

   "an abuse of power given the freedoms these companies enjoy in the marketplace today. It's a dangerous and troubling development when the platforms that serve as gateways to information intentionally skew the facts to incite their users in order to further their corporate interests."

What South Carolina means for each Candidate

CHOICE2012    SOUTH CAROLINA WATCH 
By Kathy Walker
  January 21st ,is the South Carolina Primaries and as the Republicans are still trying to figure out their nominee , he are my projections of what the  primary means to each candidate.
    Mitt Romney , After winning   Iowa and New Hampshire , South Carolina could mean he is very close to locking up the nomination .
  Rick Perry ,Really the beginning of the end was in the beginning with Iowa, not placing even 3rd  will mean the end of  his chances, though we don't honestly know when he'll get out.
 Rick Santorum ,His Iowa placing ,really didn't help in New Hampshire , except that he did get fourth   but with South Carolina's strong  Christian base he could get a strong following. Though not placing anything higher than 3rd will not help him move on and it could be the end.
 Ron Paul ,He is the surprise of this so far he took 3rd in Iowa, 2nd in New Hampshire he has a strong following , he attracts the young and new voters. His populist message could help him get to a top spot placing once again. He also has money to run on ,and  the will to fight.
Jon Huntsman , I always wonder why some candidates try a one state strategy ,placing their bets on one state, Huntsman did that with New Hampshire , and came in 3rd. He needs to get some top spots in  South Carolina and Flordia so he can the money to run on but otherwise he is done if he doesn't get at least 3rd.
