#sopa has huge implications that will impact you. take time to learn about it.

Congress wants to censor the web.

In January 2012, Congress is set to debate the Stop Internet Piracy Act (SOPA) and the Protect-IP Act (PIPA), bills designed to let the US government block websites and information from the public.

Not only does this bill let the government restrict free speech, but also does not effectively address the issue of online piracy, the stated intention of the legislation.

What up @transalt

P61

 
always down to support @transalt. they are super close to getting $600k x 2!


Transportation alternatives has a chance at $600,000 from a local foundation -- But only if they raise a matching $600,000 by dec 31ist.

At 75% of the way, they are super close!!

When they reach $600,000, T.A. gets another $600,000 -- That's 1.2 million dollars to win more bike lanes, secure new public spaces and ensure New York City's public transit system is innovative and affordable.


Making a gift is super easy and can be done here. And you also have a chance to win this sweetJamis commuter bike.

a black wallet has been has been one of the most highly requested items for some time. im excited to say, we now have the most beautiful version of just that.

in addition to the 10% we lend of all holstee sales we micro lend via kiva, for the black wallet we've partnered with peta to use it as an opportunity build awareness for unique non leather alternatives to the standard black leather wallet.

more details + images here.

hope you love it.
