Protect IP Act, this is a bill that is trying to be passed to protect the entertainment industry. But it doesn't just try to censor movies and music, it gives the power to shut down sites by having internet service providers block access to infringing domain names, remove links to that site or cutting of funds to the sites. This goes as far assueing users who show you how to videos to download free media to banning videos that may have music just playing in the background. When I first heard about this I thought of how it could impact our first amendment rights. Sure they can't keep us from what we say but they sure can promote whatever they want to show. The Protect IP act seems like the first step to condensing our right to say whatever we want. This is at least what my news source tells us.
My news source mostly relies on videos and audio, all from YouTube (www.youtube.com\sxephil) I watch and listen to others opinions and it admittedly persuades me at times. I'm open minded to new ideas but I do keep my guard up to strike down any opinion I think or prove to be invalid. I mostly watch my sources with an open ear and would like to hear opinions but they should come across on both sides.

Dreams and Super Heroes
Dreams, they are mysterious. Many people will find music or movies as inspiring or an incredible escape; although, we encounter the greatest escape from reality through sleeping. I've never thought anything much about dreams, that is until I stumbled my first lucid dream. Lucid dreaming is where one at some point during the dream realizes he/she is dreaming and is now in control of that dream until one wakes up. A dream can already be strange on it's own and tells the strangest stories but if I learned how to lucid dream then I could do anything I could be the ruler in the land of Oreos with Scarlett Johanson as my queen. Lucid dreaming breaks all the rules of reality and it tells me our brains are much more powerful than we give it credit for.
Maybe it was the movies and the comic books that jump started this idea I have that there could be super humans living amongst us. I believe in conspiracies and Illuminati, which makes me think we only know half of what we are told maybe even less, how accurate is our history? Why do so many questions go unanswered? Whenever I study about dreaming i wonder how much more we are capable of, I want to use my brain to it's full potential and give myself all the knowledge I need; to maybe one day be super human. It sounds crazy but I have had an out of body experience just a few moths ago. It was my first time experiencing astral projection. I was floating over my own body, I was then floating out of my room all the way downstairs to the front door. I was scared, I thought I knew what it was but I also felt like this could be an abduction so I chose the safe route and went back to my body. The trouble now was that there was a black figure next my bed near my head. I looked right at it and it was just starring at me.
