SOPA

At first, a friend of mine came and tell me he is building a server which I saw weird and ask why. He told me that SOPA is the abbreviation of stop online piracy act and here I still not understood him. So he continued  by saying they are going to stop a lot of sites like YouTube, Wikipedia and a lot of things.

I went home and start it to read about it. I started to ask my self questions and answering it by reading. I asked my self how do the bills attempt to stop piracy? The basic method is to stop U.S. companies from providing funding, advertising, links or other assistance to the foreign sites. The bills would give Justice Department prosecutors new powers to prevent pirate sites from getting U.S. visitors and funding.

So I thought okay but is there powers in that? I came up with that the Justice Department could seek a court order requiring U.S. Internet providers to block access to foreign pirate websites and that Access could be blocked either by making it impossible for users to type a simple web address into an Internet browser to reach the site or by requiring search engines like Google to disable links to the sites. The attorney general could also seek a court order requiring credit-card processors to stop processing payments to the sites and requiring advertising networks to stop placing ads on the sites or taking ads from the pirated websites for display elsewhere.

After that I’ve been shocked I did not want to continue .  I’m not with SOPA , I can’t live without internet , and especially YouTube . The day after someone told me that SOPA is not going to take place, I was happy.

New years resolution

       The countdown starts and all I had was a smile on my face, believing in the new year and leaving behind the past 12 months. All I thought about is I going up the 10 step stairs in 10 seconds where I open the door of a new beginning and feel that I’m born again. Every man on earth should be born again on first of January. The only thing I considered this past  year was the smile I saw on people face because of me . “on the first of January let every man gird himself once more, with his face to the front, and take no interest in the things that were and are past." As said Henry Ward Beecher

       

       So it’s 2012 ,  at the party celebrating with  my two friends , we looked at each other entertained, smiling and saying happy new year. Hope came back to me, it was the first time of my life I felt hope and happiness at the same time certainly after the circumstances our country passed in. I believed that 2012 will be my fresh start to achieve my goals, we do call that “new years resolution”.

     I was wondering what was the thing that can please me and could be a source of satisfaction .My first and important goal was to concentrate on soccer since last year I  didn’t devote my self and  I was careless about it. A new start indicates taking new decisions, soccer always gave me the good mood, when I’m depressed I play soccer so I can feel better. Soccer is an inspiration for me; it impresses me, which is a motivation to develop my playing skills and accomplish my objective; to be a respectable and famous soccer player.

Sports weren’t the only thing I thought about, but other things too. When we’re young we all pray to be a good student having good grades, concentrating in class to develop my knowledge. Consequently, when I grow up work and have a good position in the society to make my family proud of me.

 New years was always about hope not only on new years eve but on all year long and the goals I don’t accomplish this year will be also my goal next year. I think New Year is where forgiveness takes place because it’s a fresh start where you get your new empty book to fill it yourself. New years is about doing your best and forgetting the rest.
