Poets In Need

 

Poets In Need is a non-profit organization providing emergency assistance to poets who have an established presence in the literary community as innovators in the field and a substantive body of published work. Assistance is given only in cases of current financial need that is in excess of and unrelated to the recipient’s normal economic situation and that is the result of recent emergency (due, for example, to fire, flood, eviction, or a medical crisis).

Poets In Need was founded in 2000 by Board Members Michael Rothenberg, Norman Fischer, and Leslie Scalapino. Lyn Hyjenian, Hal Bohner, and Suzi Winson also serve on the Board.

Stop Virgin

 

Virgin are out to destroy the World Wide Web.
Virgin Media have recently announced that they don't care about net neutrality and are going to start controlling the quality of their users internet service, depending on whether the websites they are trying to access are paying Virgin a high premium or not.

This means that if you say, went to the Virgin Media website, you would get a very fast speeds like any normal time you spend on the World Wide Web. But if you tried to access a website like YouTube that are not paying Virgin a fee, the website will load very slowly. So slow that you won't even feel like using that site, and may prefer to use another.
