SOPA and PIPA fight

Thousands of calls and emails flooded into Capitol Hill after Wikipedia led 10,000 websites in a 24-hour blackout yesterday to protest.

The lead sponsors of the bills have promised to make changes and are expected to remove the most controversial provision, which would allow Internet service providers to block access to foreign-based piracy sites. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), the lead backer of PIPA, is working on a set of amendments he plans to unveil before Tuesday’s vote.

Japanese innovation

Grizzly bear gloves by Jetl.

It’s not from a real bear; just fake fur and fleece lining.

On the left side of the glove is “warm fleece”
The long-haired faux fur, with a combination of fleece inside is pretty warm.

Drawcord cord on the right side has to be tightened -regulation.
