Jared tweeted not long ago that his little angel has finally arrived!! I am SO happy for he and his family. Such a wonderful day. I just know Jared is going to be an amazing father. That beautiful baby is quite lucky, indeed. <33

All U.S. Internet Providers will be policing downloads by July 12, 2012
"File-sharers, beware: By July 12, major US Internet service providers (ISPs) will voluntarily begin serving as copyright police for the entertainment industry, according to Cary Sherman, chief executive of the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The so-called “six-strikes” plan is said to be one of the most effective anti-piracy efforts ever established in the US."
The article goes on to give details. After six notices, internet providers will decide to throttle a person's internet speed, or cut it off altogether. I don't know if they will crack down on torrents only, or if it is up to the internet provider. I get the sense it is up to the internet provider. So some people could get away with downloading non torrents, while others might get their internet service cut off. I urge you to click it and read, as we all know people who download.
No more downloading eps of your favorite shows for vidding, gifs, or fanfiction art. No more downloading screencaps possibly. I'm so sorry my friends. I don't even know if BT Guard will work to protect you, but I would google it if I were you. It is a professional service that supposedly can protect you from the invasive eyes of your internet provider.
Just, my friends, please make each other aware. Please be aware of the date JULY 12TH. Mark your calendar and double check with your internet provider by then. If you start receiving notices of downloaded activity, this is why. And your internet service could be throttled or cut off.

I just found out a little while ago that Davy Jones has passed away. :( I can't even begin to express how devastated I am by this news. He was one of my first crushes, and I loved watching The Monkees reruns on Nick at Nite growing up. This is a very sad day for the music industry, indeed. My thoughts and prayers are with his friends and family. ♥

RIP Whitney Houston. She had such an incredible voice, straight from heaven. It's a terrible loss to the music community and the world. My thoughts & prayers go out to her friends and family during this difficult time...
