From Smart Pop Books:

The True Fan's Hunger Games Companion
The Panem Companion
An Unofficial Guide to Suzanne Collins' Hunger Games, From Mellark Bakery to Mockingjays
By V. Arrow


From the creator of the most well-known fan map of Panem comes an unofficial guide to Suzanne Collins’ Hunger Games series. Writing with an engaging blend of literary insight and true fan passion, Hunger Games fan academic and seasoned media writer V. Arrow brings Panem to life, from how Panem could have evolved from the America we know today to textual clues as to socioeconomics, ethnicity, culture, sexuality, and more in the districts and the Capitol.

The Panem Companion includes a full lexicon of character name etymologies and an updated, fully illustrated, fold-out reference map of Panem.

Please note: Current cover image may not reflect final art.
Now, hey, wait a second.

V. Arrow? Isn't that...

I want to thank my parents, Suzanne Collins, Cinna, the citizens of District Twelve... )

Fandom: One Direction
Story Title: "Just the Way You Are"
Summary: And yeah, it was really, really weird that Harry and Louis would just touch each other’s daemons like that was something people did in public. Or at all, as far as Zayn knew.
Character/Relationships: Harry/Louis, Liam/Zayn
Rating: G
Warnings: None.
Story Wordcount: 1,900
Disclaimer: I don't own anything. No claim of knowledge or veracity is made towards anyone in the story and no aspersions or claims of character are to be inferred. I have no connection nor permissions from One Direction, X-Factor, Simon Cowell, SyCo Inc., Sony, ITV, or Columbia Records. No libel intended.
Notes: A tiny diversion from all things I should actually be writing. No knowledge of HDM is necessary (to be honest, I only read the first book myself and didn't love it OR the movie) -- just know that daemons are like patronuses that never go away.

Here's their next move: The Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act, or CISPA, would obliterate any semblance of online privacy in the United States.

And CISPA would provide a victory for content owners who were shell-shocked by the unprecedented outpouring of activism in opposition to SOPA and Internet censorship.

The House of Representatives is planning to take up CISPA later this month. Click here to ask your lawmakers to oppose it.

SOPA was pushed as a remedy to the supposed economic threat of online piracy -- but economic fear-mongering didn't quite do the trick.

So those concerned about copyright are engaging in sleight of hand, appending their legislation to a bill that most Americans will assume is about keeping them safe from bad guys.

This so-called cyber security bill aims to prevent theft of "government information" and "intellectual property" and could let ISPs block your access to websites -- or the whole Internet.

Don't let them push this back-door SOPA. Click here to demand that your lawmakers oppose CISPA.

CISPA also encourages companies to share information about you with the government and other corporations.

That data could then be used for just about anything -- from prosecuting crimes to ad placements.

And perhaps worst of all, CISPA supercedes all other online privacy protections.

Please click here to urge your lawmakers to oppose CISPA when it comes up for a vote this month.

Thanks for fighting for the Internet.

According to this article, dated March 15, 2012:
http://www.digitaltrends.com/webnews/major-isps-turn-into-copyright-police-by-july-says-riaa/

"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.

Fox news confirms this:

Youtube video explaining this:

The end is nigh, folks.

I hate everything.

ACTA in a Nutshell –

What is ACTA?  ACTA is the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement. A new intellectual property enforcement treaty being negotiated by the United States, the European Community, Switzerland, and Japan, with Australia, the Republic of Korea, New Zealand, Mexico, Jordan, Morocco, Singapore, the United Arab Emirates, and Canada recently announcing that they will join in as well.

Why should you care about ACTA? Initial reports indicate that the treaty will have a very broad scope and will involve new tools targeting “Internet distribution and information technology.”

What is the goal of ACTA? Reportedly the goal is to create new legal standards of intellectual property enforcement, as well as increased international cooperation, an example of which would be an increase in information sharing between signatory countries’ law enforcement agencies.

Essential ACTA Resources

  • Read more about ACTA here: ACTA Fact Sheet
  • Read the authentic version of the ACTA text as of 15 April 2011, as finalized by participating countries here: ACTA Finalized Text
  • Follow the history of the treaty’s formation here: ACTA history
  • Read letters from U.S. Senator Ron Wyden wherein he challenges the constitutionality of ACTA: Letter 1 | Letter 2 | Read the Administration’s Response to Wyden’s First Letter here: Response
  • Watch a short informative video on ACTA: ACTA Video
  • Watch a lulzy video on ACTA: Lulzy Video

Say NO to ACTA. It is essential to spread awareness and get the word out on ACTA.

Fandom: One Direction, Percy Jackson and the Olympians (NO FAMILIARITY NEEDED FOR EITHER FANDOM. Basically all you need to know is that One Direction are a boy band from England and in this AU, the Greek gods are real and make lots of demigod children.)
Story Title: "All Roads Lead in One Direction [Origins]"
Character/Relationships: Jay (Louis), Tricia (Zayn), Karen (Liam), Maura (Niall), Anne, Harry, Zeus, Hermes, Dionysis, Aphrodite, Rhea, Eros
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: None
Story Wordcount: 7,500

I have no connection nor permissions from One Direction, X-Factor, Simon Cowell, SyCo Inc., Sony, ITV, or Columbia Records. No libel intended. All characters, settings, and proprietary language are owned by the author of the work from which this is derived. Except mythology, which belongs to ~everyone~.
Notes: I... am super pleased with how this turned out, actually. [info]igrab and [info]soxdamnxcute and I have been plotting out a big multi-author 1D/PJO universe of fics (with [info]acciodiangelo as well) and this is the first one. They probably won't be posted in narrative linear order, so if you want to keep up with all of it, there's [info]olympus1d for a master post and such. There's really no familiarity needed for either fandom, so if you like 1D and don't know PJO, it doesn't matter, and vice-versa. :) Also, [info]antistar_e, consider this a creepy ficseduction to get you to come flail about Harry Styles...

Also, my Google-fu only went about fifteen miles instead of twenty, so I may have gotten the mums' professions and/or college majors wrong. I figure that's okay since this is a total AU anyway.
