How the SOPA Bill Affects You

Posted by Michael Livingston II
Posted on

What is SOPA? SOPA is an acronym for the Stop Online Piracy Act. It’s a proposed bill that aims to crack down on copyright infringement by restricting access to sites that host or facilitate the trading of pirated content.

SOPA’s main targets are “rogue” overseas sites like torrent hub The Pirate Bay, which are a trove for illegal downloads. Go to the The Pirate Bay, type in any current hit movie or TV show like “Glee,” and you’ll see links to download full seasons and recent episodes for free.

Content creators have battled against piracy for years — remember Napster? — but it’s hard for U.S. companies to take action against foreign sites. The Pirate Bay’s servers are physically located in Sweden. So SOPA’s goal is to cut off pirate sites’ oxygen by requiring U.S. search engines, advertising networks and other providers to withhold their services.

That means sites like Google wouldn’t show flagged sites in their search results, and payment processors like eBay’s PayPal couldn’t transmit funds to them.

Both sides say they agree that protecting content is a worthy goal. But opponents say that the way SOPA is written effectively promotes censorship and is rife with the potential for unintended consequences.

Silicon Valley woke up and took notice of the implications when SOPA was introduced in the House of Representatives in October. But its very similar counterpart, PIPA (the Protect IP Act), flew under the radar and was approved by a Senate committee in May. PIPA is now pending before the full Senate and scheduled for a vote on January 24, though some senators are pushing for a delay.

Isn’t copyright infringement already illegal? Yes. The 1998 Digital Millennium Copyright Act lays out enforcement measures.

Let’s say a YouTube user uploads a copyrighted song. Under the current law, that song’s copyright holders could send a “takedown notice” to YouTube. YouTube is protected against liability as long as it removes the content within a reasonable timeframe.

When it gets a DMCA warning, YouTube has to notify the user who uploaded the content. That user has the right to file a counter-motion demonstrating that the content doesn’t infringe on any copyrights. If the two sides keep disagreeing, the issue can go to court.

The problem with DMCA, critics say, is that it’s useless against overseas sites.

SOPA tackles that by moving up the chain. If you can’t force overseas sites to take down copyrighted work, you can at least stop U.S. companies from providing their services to those sites. You can also make it harder for U.S. Internet users to find and access the sites.

But SOPA goes further than DMCA and potentially puts site operators — even those based in the U.S. — on the hook for content that their users upload. The proposed bill’s text says that a site could be deemed a SOPA scofflaw if it “facilitates” copyright infringement.

That very broad language has tech companies spooked.

Sites like YouTube, which publishes millions of user-uploaded videos each week, are worried that they would be forced to more closely police that content to avoid running afoul of the new rules.

“YouTube would just go dark immediately,” Google public policy director Bob Boorstin said at a conference last month. “It couldn’t function.”

Robert Massey has been selected as the new Head Coach for the Shaw University football team. (The Herald Sun)

RALEIGH, NC – Shaw University named defensive coordinator Robert Massey its new head football coach.

“Coach Massey has proven himself as a coach and a loyal member of the Shaw family,” said Shaw president Dr. Dorothy Cowser Yancy.  “This promotion is well earned and a sign that our strong tradition of football at Shaw continues.”

“This is a dream job for me,” said Massey.  “I’m devoted to the Shaw program and am proud that Shaw had the faith in me to continue what we’ve started here. There is a tradition of not just winning, but of winning championships, and that’s something I’m dedicated to continuing.”

Massey has served on the Shaw coaching staff for five years, the last two as defensive coordinator.  In his first year as defensive coordinator, the Bears won the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA) championship, in large part because of  Massey’s “bend don’t break” defense.

Prior to coming to Shaw, Massey served as the interim head football coach at Livingstone College and as assistant coach, receivers coach and defensive back coach for his alma mater, North Carolina Central University (NCCU). During his collegiate career at NCCU, Massey won several honors, including Black Collegiate All American, All CIAA 1st team and All CIAA Defensive Back.

He began his coaching career with the New York Giants as an assistant defensive back coach before moving to Hillside High School in Durham, N.C. where he served as both assistant and head football coach.

Before coaching, Massey completed l ten years as a successful defensive back in the National Football League (NFL).  He was drafted in 1989 in the second round (46th pick overall) by the New Orleans Saints.   That season he was named to the NFL All-Rookie Team and was the Saints’ Rookie of the Year.

He then moved to the Phoenix Cardinals, where he was named to the 1992 NFC  Pro Bowl Team.  He also played for the Detroit Lions, Jacksonville Jaguars and New York Giants, where he completed his NFL career. He then assumed the position of assistant defensive back coach with the Giants.

Massey takes the helm from Darrell Asberry, who accepted the head coaching position at Division I Texas Southern.  The Bears won the 2010 CIAA Championship, but finished last season with a 3-7 record.

The Bears open play in 2012 with a trip to Charleston, W.Va., to take on the University of Charleston on August 30.

Thrift Store Treasures: Finding Quality in the Most Unlikely Places

Posted by Shy-Asia Andrews

Thrift stores are an underrated source for the fashion community to find quality items at fair prices. (Inside Social)

“Thrifting” is the act of shopping at a thrift store or second-hand shop for great styles at rock-bottom prices. The art of “thrifting” is one that not many people possess, especially me! I find that “thrifting” takes patience and a good chunk of your day. However, if you do find that you are fond of thrifting, here are a few tips on how to become a seasoned pro.

  • Go regularly, and go on off-hours.The first helps you acquire more goodies, the second is for your sanity. If you don’t go on a regular basis, you’re just asking to miss all the good variety of clothes, shoes and accessories. You can take this a step further and inquire about “restocking” day, then mark that day on your calendar and make sure you go!
  • Make a list of what you need, and refer back to it to avoid stocking up on things you don’t need. Also, racks of $3 clothes are not an excuse to pile your closet with heaps of poor-quality items.
  • Shop off-season. You’ll find the best deals and have a better selection to pick through.
  • Approach things with an open mind. If you go shopping without with an agenda in mind- A barely worn vintage Chanel jacket that fits well and is under $10- you’re probably going to be disappointed. Remember that things can be shortened, re-sized, altered entirely by you, a crafty friend, or even a tailor. If you choose to go to a tailor and factor in the tailor’s fees, it’s still cheaper (and cooler) than buying something brand new and mass-produced.
  • Try to find shops off the beaten path. Shops in areas with a high population of stylish college students will be a) picked of all the good selections, and b) pricey, look for the ones near ritzy 55+ communities. GO WILD!

President Obama Steps In & Puts a Stop to SOPA Bill

The growing anti-SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) support that has swept through the gaming and Internet community found a very big ally today. With websites like Reddit and Wikipedia and gaming organizations like Major League Gaming prepared for a blackout on January 18th – the same day that the House Judiciary Committee hearing on HR 3261 was scheduled in Washington, DC – President Barack Obama has stepped in and said he would not support the bill.

SOPA has been delayed, for now. The House has agreed to revisit the issue next month, but they now know the White House will veto any bill that’s not more narrowly focused.

Much to the chagrin of Hollywood, the Entertainment Software Association (which has been a backer of the bill from early on), and Internet domain company GoDaddy.com (which lost many accounts as a result of its support for the bill); SOPA has been shelved. The Motion Picture Association of America, one of the bill’s largest sponsors, is expected to regroup.

California congressman Darrell Issa, who has been opposed to the bill from the beginning, praised the Internet action that has swept like a virus across the Web the past week.

Both SOPA and Protect IP attempt to combat online piracy by preventing American search engines like Google and Yahoo from directing users to sites distributing stolen content. Both bills also would enable people and companies to sue if their copyright was infringed. Obama has come out against both bills, which killed SOPA and puts pressure on senators come January 24th.

Former NAACP President and Hampton University alum Ed Tomlin dies at 63.

Ed Tomlin, a longtime civil rights activist and former president of the Marion County NAACP, died suddenly on Monday. He was 63.

Tomlin, a native of Ocala, suffered an apparent heart attack after he returned home from a day of fishing, according to his family. He was the father of Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin.

Tomlin took the reins of the local National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in 2003 and helped shepherd the organization back to stability after several years of leadership changes and a dwindling membership.

“He added a lot to the NAACP. He was a leader and had the ability to draw people to him. He worked well with a broad category of people across race lines. He was a very thoughtful person and had a great knowledge of the community history and civil rights history,” said Whitfield Jenkins, another local NAACP past president, who worked with Tomlin.

Tomlin played football at the former Howard High School in Ocala, where he graduated in 1964. He attended Hampton Institute, now Hampton University, in Hampton, Va., and was drafted by the Baltimore Colts in 1968. That year, he played eight games with the Montreal Alouettes of the Canadian Football League.

The Game Season 5 Episode 2: More Money, More Problems

Posted by Arielle Neblett
Posted on
BET’s hit comedy-drama The Game is already two episodes in, and is already full of the drama, comedy and excitement that has made it such a favorite among our students.

Play Your Position

On last night’s episode, Derwin Davis (Pooch Hall) signs a lucrative sponsorship deal with Verizon with the help of his fired now re-hired manager, Irv. Derwin’s wife Melanie (Tia Mowry-Hardrict), the self-proclaimed CEO of Derwin Davis Enterprises, is upset about not being included on this deal or knowing that Irv was rehired as Derwin’s manager. Trying to make peace, Derwin puts Melanie in charge of Irv and as his new manager.

With Melanie as CEO, thus the drama begins. The Derwin Davis Enterprise is being sued by former manager Tasha Mack (Wendy Raquel Robinson) for a percentage of the Verizon deal because it was her “initial set up” while being Derwin’s manager. Melanie intervenes during the hearing between Tasha and Irv, much to Irv’s surprise, but Tasha switches to her professional demeanor and shuts her down. Now Derwin has to pay Tasha 10% percentage of all his earnings from the Verizon deal.

Once Derwin finds out about Melanie’s unsuccessful intervention, he informs her that she was never really CEO and Irv was filling him in on her ideas all along. He just wants Melanie to be his wife and play that role and that role only.

Ballin’ on a Budget

Malik Wright (Hosea Chanchez) is in trouble yet again- This time it’s financial. Malik is officially broke due to his frivolous spending. Unfortunately, Malik’s immaturity and his need to live up to the celebrity status -his so called “baller etiquette”- gets the best of him and he can’t tell his best friend T.T. he can’t blow money for his birthday like he wants. Now, Malik calls Tasha to pay the bill for him, but first she asks him “Do you have to be every stereotype, Malik?”

Malik needs to just put his pride aside and let those around him know the truth. He has mismanaged his money. He got a $40 million contract, and bought a $40 million dollar house. The ones that care to begin with will still be there. This situation is typical of many athletes who go from millions to nothing because of unnecessary spending. How Malik gets out of this predicament depends on how fast he is willing to grow up.

The Trends for The 2012 Spring Season!

Posted by Shy-Asia Andrews

After a very mild winter, spring is on its way! This is the time to get ready for the vibrant style’s of the spring so that as soon as the weather breaks, if we can even really say that it did, you’ll b ready. I always love taking to the most popular fashion mag’s to see what their raving over for the new season, to be quiet honest not all of the styles are practical especially for college, but when I find styles that can be worn and loved I’m all over it!

Color Blocking

The spring runways were all glowing with bright colors and bold styles. This color blocking technique is one that can be worn perfectly in the spring, but beware, choose three colors max! You really want to avoid looking like an over done rainbow.

Bold Prints

There are prints, then there are PRINTS while there’s plenty to choose from; oversize floral’s, mirror-like geometric shapes, even parrot prints. The most practical way to wear these bold prints is paired with basic colors, prints on top of prints for class may be too busy.

Pink, Short Suits

Ok, I can admit that this trend may not be first in line to be considered practical, but I love it. This trend is wearable in a work setting, as well as on a casual day. Wear the blazer and shorts separately and you’ve opened up a whole new world of possibilities. Now that’s a style you cant help but to love.

Orange

Bright colors for the spring are always a must, but this new “tangerine tango” trend can take your spring bright’s to the next level. Whether you choose to have one item on this color to serve as your focal point or you choose to sprinkle orange throughout your outfit it is sure to be a standout color this spring.

Howard University Becomes First HBCU to Host AAUW’s Elect Her–Campus Women Win Initiative

Posted by Michael Livingston II
Posted on
Washington, D.C– Howard University is the first Historically Black College or University selected as one of the 30 campus sites across the United States and Jamaica to host the American Association of Undergraduate Women’s (AAUW) Elect Her–Campus Women Win in 2012 Initiative. Elect Her is the only nationwide program that trains collegiate women on how to run for and win student government elections.

The Elect Her initiative acknowledges the necessity to build the pipeline of women running for office in order to diminish the long-standing political leadership gender gap. The initiative empowers females from college onward to view themselves as political candidates. Since 2008, AAUW and Running Start have worked together to encourage college women to run for student government and launched the Elect Her–Campus Women Win training program in 2010.

Howard University’s Elect Her–Campus Women Win Training held its first forum on November 29, 2011 at the Hilltop Lounge in the Blackburn Student Center.  The forum encompassed an intimate round-table discussion on women in leadership. The panelists included former executive president of the Howard University School of Communications, Brittney Butts, current executive president of the Howard University School of Business, Andrea Armstead, and coordinator of the Undergraduate Student Assembly, Erin Keith. Howard alum and CEO of Brown Girls Lead, Stephanie Brown, also provided her expertise during the event. Shakaria Buckson, a freshman, journalism major from South Carolina said, “At the end of the discussion I felt more confident and secure about running for a political office on campus.”

Elect Her Howard Women Win organizers, sophomores Kristin Tellis, a native of St. Petersburg Florida, and Angel Mills, a native of Detroit, Michigan along with Howard administrator, Norkia Baker have been instrumental in the Elect Her movement. “ Since high school, I have always held leadership positions in school. Coming to Howard I became extremely disheartened when I realized the disparity in female leadership in Howard student government. When Kristin [Tellis] told me she was working on the Elect Her program, I knew that this was something I wanted to be heavily involved in”, says Angel Mills

On January 21st, 2012 AAUW and Running Start will host a 5-hour Student Leadership Training Program called Elect Her – Howard Women Win from 11am-4pm in the Bethune Annex Seminar Room. The training will inform female students in depth on how to develop and communicate an effective message, how to reach out to your constituency, and how to win a campaign. They will also have the opportunity to speak with an elected official from the DC area, and network with women who have previously held political positions at Howard University.

Love and Hip Hop: Episode 9- The Drama Continues

Posted by Arielle Neblett

Love & Hip Hop comes on every Monday at 9PM (VH1)

VH1’s latest episode of Love and Hip Hop started with Yandy, Olivia and Emily discussing what else but the Chrissy vs. Yandy drama. This episode comes on the heels of a physical confrontation between Chrissy and Yandy about the disrespectful emails from Yandy. During a later meeting with Chrissy, the rundown of what was said during the conversation with Yandy is the topic of conversation. Emily wasted no time throwing Olivia under the bus about some of the things that were said about Chrissy, causing Chrissy to question Olivia’s loyalty and friendship.

Yandy also talked the situation over with Cam’ron and informed him she wanted to be a part of his next business venture. However, Cam’ron knows where his loyalties lie and tells Yandy he needs to talk it over with Jim first. This is why you do not bite the hand that feeds you. Who knows what Jimmy will say after those unprofessional emails and the fight with his new fiancee?

The whole Yandy vs. Chrissy war has to be fueled by something a lot deeper: jealously, bitterness, pride. There is a sneaking suspicion that Chrissy may believe out Yandy and Jim’s relationship was just a tad more than “just business.”

The Olivia and Teairra Mari stories are starting to become more of a footnote than an actual interesting story on the show. Olivia is still a struggling rapper trying to reinvent her career, and Teairra Mari…well, her purpose on the show has yet to be revealed other than the instigator.

Meanwhile, the  Kimbella and Erica “fight” has been brought back to life. Erica used her Vibe.com interview to revive the Kimbella drama after she apologized. Once again, Erica states she is on a higher level than Kimbella and informs viewers that Kimbella has done more porn than actual modeling. Kimbella, along with Somaya tagging along, confront Erica about the comments at her birthday party and the two begin to have an argument of no substance and Somaya and Kimbella are escorted out. The episode ends as Kimbella and Somaya, who was having quite difficulty walking in her heels, walk down a New York avenue.

The champ of the Louisville, KY National Championship Tournament believes a lot of life’s greatest lessons are learned when one is a part of a team. “Lessons that my team will learn early, will not only produce winning teams for years to come but, most importantly, in life.  Together, with God, the Virginia State Lady Trojans bowling team can do all things,” says Simms.

Angela Davis To Speak at Fayetteville University

 A 1970s political activist who once was listed on the FBI’s Most Wanted list is getting a forum at a North Carolina university.

Angela Davis speaks Tuesday at Fayetteville State University.

The 67-year-old retired professor at the University of California at Santa Cruz spent recent years writing about how the high numbers of blacks and Hispanics in American prisons oppresses minorities. She was the first black woman to head the FBI’s Most Wanted list.

Davis was removed from her teaching job at UCLA in 1969 because she was a member of the Communist Party. A year later, she was charged with murder and kidnapping in a shootout in front of the Marin County, Calif., courthouse.

The Black Panthers member was acquitted after a 13-week trial in 1972.
