Letter of R. Kipling to his child

If you succeed in keeping calm when all the others around you are losing her and gives the guilt to you;

If you know to have trust in yourself when all doubt of you holding however in the correct account their doubts;

If you know how to wait without getting tired you to wait, or being slandered not to answer to the calumnies, or being hated not to give space to the hate, without nevertheless to seem too much good person, and to speak too much from wise;

If you know how to dream without making some dreams your masters;

If you know how to think without making some thoughts your goal;

If you know how to meet you with the success and the defeat and to treat these two impostors proper equally;

If you succeed in tolerating hearing the truth that you have said, distorted by cheats that they do a trap of it for naïve; or to look at the things, for which you have given life, destroyed, and to humiliate you to reconstruct by now her with your worn-out tools;

If you know how to make an only battery of your victories and to risk only her in a hit to head or cross, and to lose, and to restart again from the beginning without never leaving to escape to you a word on what you have lost;

If you know how to force your heart, your nerves, your wrists to also support you after a lot of time that you don't feel them to you more and so to withstand when in you there is not anything except the wish that tells them: Withstand!

If you know how to talk to the cheats without losing your honesty or to walk with the kings without losing your normal behavior;

If they cannot hurt you the enemies neither the affectionate friends;

If for you all the men but nobody count too much;

If succeed in filling the inexorable minute giving value to every instant that passes, your is the Earth and all of this that there is in that and it that more counts - you will be a Man, my child!

Rudyard Kipling

Quotes on peace

Who loves the war, he has not seen it in face (Erasmus from Rotterdam)

The path for the peace is the peace (M. K. Gandhi)

Fonte Notes

You cannot choose the country where to born, You cannot choose the color of your skin, You cannot choose the relatives, but You can choose the friends. Living means to choose, to decide what to do, every day.

SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) is a law of the United States proposed in 2011 to fight online trafficking in copyrighted intellectual property and counterfeit goods. Proposals include barring advertising networks and payment facilities from conducting business with allegedly infringing websites, barring search engines from linking to the sites, and requiring Internet service providers (ISP) to block access to the sites. The bill would criminalize the streaming of such content, with a maximum penalty of five years in prison.
User-content websites such as YouTube, but not only, would be greatly affected, and concern has been expressed that they may be shut down if the bill becomes law. Opponents state the legislation would enable law enforcement to remove an entire internet domain due to something posted on a single blog, arguing that an entire online community could be punished for the actions of a tiny minority. The 1998 Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) includes the Online Copyright Infringement Liability Limitation Act, the copyright owners are required to request the site to remove the infringing material within a certain amount of time. SOPA would bypass this "safe harbor" provision by placing the responsibility for detecting and policing infringement onto the site itself.
This is serious problem Freedom of speech and Freedom of information: The president Obama, mentioned on the Texas Insider: "will not support legislation that reduces freedom of expression".
On October 28, 2011, the EFF called the bill a "massive piece of job-killing Internet regulation," and said, "This bill cannot be fixed; it must be killed."
Nancy Pelosi is far from the only member of Congress opposed to the legislation. On Tuesday, ten members of Congress signed a "dear colleague" letter expressing concerns with the bill. The signers were nine Democrats plus Republican Ron Paul, a libertarian-leaning candidate for the GOP presidential nomination.
SOPA, they write, is "overly broad and would cause serious and long term damage to the technology industry, one of the few bright spots in our economy." The representatives warned that SOPA would result in "an explosion of innovation-killing lawsuits and litigation."
Also opposed to the legislation is Republican Darrel Issa. "I don't believe this bill has any chance on the House floor," Issa told The Hill on Wednesday. "I think it’s way too extreme, it infringes on too many areas that our leadership will know is simply too dangerous to do in its current form."
